JinkoSolar has announced the sale of its complete 100% equity interest in Xinjiang Jinko Solar Co., Ltd. (Xinjiang Jinko) by its subsidiary, Jinko Solar Co., Ltd. (Jiangxi Jinko).
The deal, valued at CNY 4.3 billion, will see Ziyang Major Industry Equity Investment Fund Partnership and Shihong Dong acquire the stake. Following the transaction's completion, Jiangxi Jinko will no longer have any equity interest in Xinjiang Jinko.
The agreement was negotiated under normal commercial terms and is expected to reduce operational costs, enhance production efficiency, and optimize facility utilization for Jiangxi Jinko.
The sale is contingent upon customary closing conditions, including regulatory approval and payment. Currently, JinkoSolar holds a majority equity interest of around 58.62% in Jiangxi Jinko.
