TOYO Co., Ltd Announces First Half 2025 Financial Results
TOKYO, Sept. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- TOYO Co., Ltd (Nasdaq: TOYO) ("TOYO" or the "Company"), a solar solution company, today announced its unaudited and unreviewed financial results for the first six months ended June 30, 2025.
Key Business Highlights for 1H 2025
Outlook for full year 2025
Management comments
"Against a very turbulent environment for renewable energy and shifting tariff landscape, TOYO's team has pivoted our sourcing and production strategy," said Junsei Ryu, Chairman and CEO of TOYO. "Our new solar cell facility in Ethiopia is now running at full 2GW capacity and is on track to reach 4GW full capacity by October 2025. This provides TOYO with a very attractive cost structure, state-of-the-art facility, abundant green power, and the lowest available tariff rates in a country with which the U.S. currently has a trade surplus."
"We are also pleased to announce that we have commenced trial production at our new module facility in the Houston metropolitan area, delivering on the promise of our 'made-in-USA-for-the-USA' strategy. With the newly acquired VSUN brand, we intend to build on its relationships with many of North America's leading utility‑scale developers. These partners are focused on deploying solar panels that deliver industry‑leading performance while benefiting from the advantages of domestic manufacturing — a combination that positions TOYO to capture significant growth opportunities in this key market. We will continue to collaborate closely with our industry partners in our efforts to migrate key components to the U.S.," Mr. Ryu continued.
Unaudited and Unreviewed First Half 2025 Results
Revenues for the first half of 2025 were approximately $139 million, which increased 0.7% from $138.1 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase was due to the positive contribution of the Company's new solar cell facility in Ethiopia, which commenced operations in April 2025, serving U.S. end customers and providing more attractive pricing and margin opportunities.
The cost of revenues was approximately $116 million for the first half of 2025, compared to $111.4 million for the same period in the prior year.
Gross profit margin was 16.6% for the first half of 2025 compared to 19.3% for the same period in the prior year. The lower gross profit margin was primarily caused by increasing unit cost of raw materials.
Total operating expenses increased 219.9% to approximately $13 million for the first half of 2025 from $4.2 million for the same period in the prior year.
Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $23 million for the first half of 2025 compared to $33 million for the same period in the prior year, reflecting reduced sales volume to the U.S. market, as Vietnam's capacity was allocated to non-U.S. regions, while Ethiopia's operations only commenced in April 2025, as well as changes in fair value of contingent consideration payable related to earnout shares.
Net income attributable to TOYO's shareholders was approximately $4 million for the first half of 2025, compared to $19.6 million for the same period in the prior year, reflecting the increase in operating expenses to support future growth.
Earnings per share, basic and diluted, were $0.10 for the first half of 2025, compared to earnings per share, basic and diluted, of $0.48 for the same period in the prior year.
As of June 30, 2025, the Company had approximately $30 million in cash and current restricted cash, compared to $15.5 million as of December 31, 2024.
Business Outlook
For the full year of 2025, TOYO expects to exceed its previous guidance of 3.5 GW in solar cell shipments, projecting approximately 4.2-4.4 GW for full year 2025. This is anticipated to drive revenues in the range of approximately $375 million to $400 million, with projected net income between approximately $39 million and $45 million.
"In the second half of 2025, we are focused on scaling up production of solar cells at our Ethiopian facility to a run-rate of 4GW while diverting production at our Vietnamese facility to growing markets that are not subject to the high tariffs that now exist in the U.S.," said Mr. Ryu. "We intend to judiciously expand our U.S. module capacity as we are able to refine our sourcing strategy and balance investment priorities. Despite some changes to energy policy, we believe that solar energy is the best option for adding capacity to the energy grid quickly and affordably, as well as meeting the increasing growth in electricity demand in the U.S. and other developed countries. We expect that the cash generated from these facilities will provide us with the flexibility to fund continued expansion internally."
"The commencement of U.S. production has now set the stage to consolidate the VSUN brand, sales channels, and customer base within TOYO to create a streamlined organization able to deliver the high-performance solar solutions that utility-scale customers demand. We look forward to sharing additional details about this strategy soon, which we believe will significantly bolster our future financial profile and the value we can deliver to our customers," he concluded.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measure
In addition to consolidated U.S. GAAP financial measures, we consistently evaluate our use of and calculation of the non-GAAP financial measures, "Adjusted EBITDA".
Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure defined as our EBITDA, adjusted to eliminate the effects of certain non-recurring items, that do not reflect our ongoing strategic business operations. EBITDA is computed as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA further adjusted for certain income and expenses, which management believes results in a performance measurement that represents a key indicator of the Company's core business operations. The adjustments currently include Changes in fair value of contingent consideration payable.
