Deres produkter dækker alt fra siliciumskiver og solceller til færdige solcellemoduler. JinkoSolar driver også kommercielle solenergiprojekter...

Is JinkoSolar making money or losing money?
No, JinkoSolar is currently not making money — the company is losing money with a negative profit margin of -5.6%, a noticeable loss. That means the business loses money on every dollar of revenue. For growth stocks investing in expansion this is normal — but it raises the risk if the company does not reach break-even before its capital runs out.
Can JinkoSolar go bankrupt?
The bankruptcy risk of JinkoSolar is rated as elevated. Altman Z2 (a model for assessing financial distress) is 0.90 — that places the company in the weak zone. This is a probability based on the numbers, not a verdict — bankruptcy is not imminent. But the balance sheet is measurably weaker than average, so watch the debt, liquidity and possible capital raises. The Piotroski score (financial health 0-9, higher is better) is 4 — which is average. Debt relative to equity is 456% (high). Remember: models like Altman Z2 are statistical — unexpected shocks (fraud, a sector collapse, lawsuits) can always happen. Spread your portfolio.

Yes, JinkoSolar has elevated debt relative to equity. The debt-to-equity ratio (D/E — interest-bearing debt to equity) is 456%. For the teknologi sector, anything above 150% counts as elevated — that raises the financial risk, especially if interest rates rise or earnings fall. Note: D/E levels are highly sector-specific — a bank at 300% debt is normal, a tech stock at 300% is extremely leveraged. Always compare with similar companies in the same sector.
