Unaudited Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2009 Financial Results
JIASHAN, China, June 8 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ -- ReneSola Ltd
("ReneSola" or the "Company") (NYSE: SOL) (AIM: SOLA), a leading global
manufacturer of solar wafers and producer of solar power products based in
China, today announced that it filed its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the
year ended December 31, 2009 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission on June 7, 2010. The Company also announced that since the March
10, 2010 issuance of its earnings release for the unaudited results as of
and for the three months and the year ended December 31, 2009, as amended
on May 10, 2010, the Company made an additional non-recurrent, non-cash
adjustment related to its ownership of an equity interest in a polysilicon
manufacturer whose shares are traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

At the time of its earnings release, the Company believed it had made
the correct determination of the fair value of the investee based on
available information. However, due to the continued decline in fair value
and a private placement by the investee subsequent to year end, the Company
recorded an other than temporary impairment loss of $13.4 million for the
three months and the year ended December 31, 2009 in non-operating expenses
as other-than-temporary impairment loss of available-for-sale investment.
Among other changes, the adjustment of $13.4 million of the Company's non-
operating expenses would increase its net loss from $60.8 million to $71.9
million and increase its loss per share (both basic and diluted) from $0.41
to $0.49 for the year ended December 31, 2009, and would increase its net
loss from $17.0 million to $28.1 million and increase its loss per share
(both basic and diluted) from $0.10 to $0.16 for the three months ended
December 31, 2009. In addition, the adjustment from $12.5 million to $6.2
million for its available-for-sale investment would decrease the Company's
total equity from $400.3 million to $396.3 million as of December 31, 2009.
The Company included the adjusted financial results in its Annual
Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2009 filed today with
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. An electronic copy of the
Annual Report on Form 20-F can be accessed on ReneSola's investor relations
website at http://ir.renesola.com .
