"We have signed new orders of 671.5MW during the quarter, and our signed orderbook continues to grow strongly and has now reached a historic high of 3.3GW," commented Mr. Chuanwei Zhang, chairman and chief executive officer of Ming Yang. "This continues the trend established in late 2013. Benefiting from the increased demand from our customers we had been able to take advantage of larger economies of scale and our direct cost per kW had continued to decrease by 3.1 percentage points and 6.9 percentage points for our 1.5MW and 2.0MW WTGs respectively, compared with the corresponding period in 2013. Our gross margin for 2.0MW WTGs was approximately 16.6%, which was 1.6 percentage points higher than the gross margin of our 1.5MW WTGs. Our orderbook for the 2.0MW WTGs continues to increase and we expect to continue to benefit from the trend towards higher megawatt WTGs in China."

"As China continues to work towards a cleaner environment, we expect wind power to continue to become a viable alternative to traditional sources of power generation. We have already seen our customers taking advantage of this opportunity, and we expect the upstream supply chain including Ming Yang to be in a stronger position to harness this market trend."
