Xinyi Solar Holdings is one of the largest solar glass producers in the world. This year has been a breakthrough year for solar industry in China since solar has achieved grid parity in China. In 2021, this is the first year in which all newly completed utility scale and commercial distributed PV generation projects in China are operated on a grid-parity basis. This should have a significantly positive impact on major solar players such as Xinyi Solar. The following are the key catalysts for Xinyi Solar:1) Ambitious Plans to Increase Renewables &amp; Decrease Coal Announced at COP262) Higher Insider Purchase3) Accelerating Sales &amp; Profit Margins4) A likely upcoming inclusion of Xinyi Solar (968 HK) into the Hang Seng China Enterprises IndexValuation - Xinyi Solar is trading at EV/EBITDA multiples of 16.4x in 2021 and 14.6x in 2022. The comps are trading at an average EV/EBITDA of 20.1x in 2021 and 18.3x in 2022. However, Xinyi Solar has better metrics than its peers in terms of net margins, ROE, and sales growth. Therefore, we would argue that Xinyi Solar is undervalued and that it deserves to trade at higher valuation multiples.
