    Consolidated quarterly statement on first three months 2016 released

    SolarWorld AG sees a growing demand for its quality and high-efficiency
    products on the international solar market. In the first three months of
    2016, the group increased its revenue by more than 40 percent, compared
    with previous year's quarter. The company released its consolidated
    quarterly statement today and confirmed its preliminary figures.

    "We are quality and technology leader for high-efficiency solar products.
    More and more customers recognize the clear added value we offer: highly
    reliable energy yields and returns on investment for more than 30 years,"
    explains Dr.-Ing. E. h. Frank Asbeck, CEO of SolarWorld AG. With its high-
    tech strategy, SolarWorld was able to grow considerably above all in the
    U.S. and Europe in the first quarter 2016. "Quality awareness is rising
    everywhere, also in the market for large-scale solar projects. Here, we won
    some attractive orders, for example in Sri Lanka, France and the United
    States. Our modules with PERC technology and 72-cell-modules are
    particularly high in demand for projects," Frank Asbeck says. "In future,
    our bifacial modules Bisun will score highly in this segment, too." A solar
    installation at the University of Richmond, Virginia/United States, is one
    of the first to employ the Bisun modules, which generate electricity both
    from direct exposure to solar radiation on the front side as well as
    reflected sunlight on the backside.

    Over the course of 2016, SolarWorld wants to further benefit from the
    strong demand and continues to invest in technological upgrades and the
    expansion of its production capacities. In the first three quarters, the
    company already invested EUR 6 million. This year, SolarWorld concentrates
    on PERC, bifacial technology and the introduction of 5 instead of the
    market standard 3 busbars - the contacts on the solar cell. This will
    increase cell efficiency by up to 2 percent. These investments enable
    SolarWorld to increase its share of high-efficiency products in its product
    mix. "This will also improve our operating result over the year. We are on
    track to reach our goals for fiscal year 2016," Frank Asbeck says.
