- TOYO has announced its unaudited and unreviewed financial results for the first six months ended June 30, 2025.
“Against a very turbulent environment for renewable energy and shifting tariff landscape, TOYO’s team has pivoted our sourcing and production strategy,” said Junsei Ryu, Chairman and CEO of TOYO. “Our new solar cell facility in Ethiopia is now running at full 2GW capacity and is on track to reach 4GW full capacity by October 2025. This provides TOYO with a very attractive cost structure, state-of-the-art facility, abundant green power, and the lowest available tariff rates in a country with which the U.S. currently has a trade surplus.”

“We are also pleased to announce that we have commenced trial production at our new module facility in the Houston metropolitan area, delivering on the promise of our ‘made-in-USA-for-the-USA’ strategy. With the newly acquired VSUN brand, we intend to build on its relationships with many of North America’s leading utility‑scale developers. These partners are focused on deploying solar panels that deliver industry‑leading performance while benefiting from the advantages of domestic manufacturing — a combination that positions TOYO to capture significant growth opportunities in this key market. We will continue to collaborate closely with our industry partners in our efforts to migrate key components to the U.S.,” Mr. Ryu continued.
Revenues for the first half of 2025 were approximately $139 million, which increased 0.7% from $138.1 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase was due to the positive contribution of the Company’s new solar cell facility in Ethiopia, which commenced operations in April 2025, serving U.S. end customers and providing more attractive pricing and margin opportunities.
The cost of revenues was approximately $116 million for the first half of 2025, compared to $111.4 million for the same period in the prior year.
Gross profit margin was 16.6% for the first half of 2025 compared to 19.3% for the same period in the prior year. The lower gross profit margin was primarily caused by increasing unit cost of raw materials.
