Management Commentary
Mr. George Pan,
Chairman and CEO of Highpower International, commented, “We were pleased to remain profitable and grow EBITDA during the
period despite an overall challenging environment of China’s economic slowdown and pricing pressure from competition and
the decline in commodity prices. We continue to see newer electronic products and modern wearable devices being introduced to the
market, with demand for more robust rechargeable batteries. In the meantime, lower commodity prices, especially in the oil industry,
have created a challenging environment for clean energy related industries. The recent devaluation of the Chinese currency RMB
also affected our US dollar denominated sales numbers. We remain confident in growing our business in the long term.”
2015 Third Quarter Financial Review
Net Sales
Net sales for the third quarter ended September
30, 2015 were $37.6 million compared to $44.5 million for the same period in 2014. The decrease of 15.6% in net sales compared
to the same period in 2014 was due to a $4.1 million decrease in net sales of lithium batteries, a $2.3 million decrease in net
sales of Ni-MH batteries and a $0.5 million decrease in revenue of the new material business.
Net sales for the nine months ended September
30, 2015 were $108.3 million, a decrease of 3.1%, compared to $111.8 million for the same prior year period. The decrease was due
to a $6.5 million decrease in net sales of Ni-MH batteries and a $0.9 million decrease in revenue from new material business, which
was offset by a $3.9 million increase in net sales of lithium batteries. The increase in lithium battery sales in the nine months
ended September 30, 2015 was primarily attributable to the growth in global demand for mobile and portable products, and electrical
buses in China.
Gross Profit
For the third quarter ended September 30,
2015, the Company’s gross profit was $7.2 million compared to $9.4 million for the same period in 2014.
For the nine months ended September 30,
2015, the Company’s gross profit was $21.3 million compared to $23.1 million for the same period in 2014.
Gross Margin
Gross margin was 19.2% for the third quarter
ended September 30, 2015 compared to 21.1% for the same period in 2014.
Gross margin for the nine months ended
September 30, 2015 was 19.7% compared to 20.6% for the same period in 2014. The decrease of gross profit and gross margin was due
to decrease in the average selling price of products because of competition and lower commodity prices.

Outlook for
2015
Based on the recent economic
slowdown and continued downward pressure for global commodity prices, and the depreciation pressure of RMB versus USD exchange
rate, the Company expects its total net sales for the full year of 2015 to be between $142.0 million and $146.0 million, and
both GAAP and non-GAAP net income to be between $4.0 and 5.0 million .
Chairman
Pan concluded, “Based on the current impact of the short-term pricing pressures, we have realigned our expectations for Highpower
for the year. We revised our 2015 net sales and non-GAAP net income guidance to take
account of the aforementioned change, but still feel confident in achieving our previously announced net income bottom line guidance.
We are focused on optimizing our customer base and seeking new business opportunities with multi-national customers. We feel that
Highpower is well positioned as we enter 2016.”

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
The Company has supplemented its reported
GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial information with non-GAAP measures. EBITDA was derived by taking earnings
before interest expense (net), taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA and Non-GAAP (adjusted) net income or (loss)
exclude stock-based compensation expense. Adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, may not be similar to Adjusted EBITDA measures
used by other companies. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute
for results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors as
they provide a basis for evaluating the Company's operating results in the ordinary course of its operations.
These non-GAAP measures are not based on
any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. The Company believes that non-GAAP measures have limitations in that
they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with its results of operations as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and
that these measures should only be used to evaluate the Company's results of operations in conjunction with, and not in lieu of,
the corresponding GAAP measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are reconciled in the accompanying tables to the most directly
comparable measures as reported in accordance with GAAP.
Forward Looking Statements
This press release contains "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the “safe-harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995 that are not historical facts. These statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology
such as “believe,” “expect,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “project,”
“plan,” “seek,” “intend,” or “anticipate” or the negative thereof or comparable
terminology, and include discussions of strategy, and statements about industry trends and the Company's future performance, operations
and products. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause the Company's actual
results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by such statements, including, without limitation, fluctuations
in the cost of raw materials; our dependence on, or inability to attract additional, major customers for a significant portion
of our net sales; our ability to increase manufacturing capabilities to satisfy orders from new customers; our ability to maintain
increased margins; adverse economic conditions in China that may affect exchange rates and pricing of our products; our dependence
on the growth in demand for portable electronic devices and energy storage systems and transportation products and the success
of manufacturers of the end applications that use our battery products; our responsiveness to competitive market conditions; our
ability to successfully manufacture our products in the time frame and amounts expected; the market acceptance of our battery products,
including our lithium products; our ability to successfully develop products for and penetrate the electric transportation market;
our ability to successfully commercialize portable energy storage systems in the international market by the end of year and our
ability to continue R&D development to keep up with technological changes. For a discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties see
"Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations"
in the Company's public filings with the SEC. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking
statements are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. The Company has no obligation
to update the forward-looking information contained in this press release.
