Carlstadt, N.J., November 11, 2015 - Jinpan International Limited. (Nasdaq: JST), a leading designer, manufacturer, and distributor of cast resin transformers, today reported unaudited consolidated financial results for the third quarter ending September 30, 2015. This announcement contains translations of certain RMB amounts into U.S. dollars at specified rates solely for the convenience of the reader. All translations from RMB to U.S. dollars are made at a rate of RMB6.3613 to US$1.00, the rate published by China administration of foreign exchange on September 30, 2015.

Third Quarter 2015 Results

Net sales for the third quarter were RMB462.6 million (US$72.7 million), a 22.3% increase from RMB 378.3 million (US$59.5 million) in the same period last year. The increase was driven by continued strength in sales of switchgear and unit substations, an increase in sales to the Company's newest OEM customer, and moderate growth in sales of transformers.

In the third quarter, China sales increased 16.7% year-over-year to RMB391.3 million (US$61.5 million), or 84.6% of net sales, compared to RMB335.3 million (US$52.7 million), or 88.6% of net sales in the same period last year. Net sales outside of China for the third quarter increased 65.9% year-over-year to RMB 71.3 million (US$11.2 million), or 15.4% of net sales, compared to RMB43.0 million (US$6.8 million), or 11.4% of net sales, for the same period last year.

Sales of cast resin transformers increased 4.8% year-over-year to RMB245.2 million (US$38.5 million), or 53.0% of net sales, compared to RMB233.9 million (US$36.8 million) or 61.8% of net sales, for the same period last year. Sales of our integrated products, including switchgear and unit substations, increased 99.2% year-over-year to RMB134.6 million (US$21.2 million), or 29.1% of sales, compared to RMB67.6 million (US$10.6 million), or 17.9% of net sales, for the same period last year.

Sales to OEM customers increased 64% year-over-year to RMB94.4 million (US$14.8 million), or 20.4% of net sales, compared to RMB 57.5 million (US$ 9.0 million), or 15.2% of net sales in the same period last year.

Gross profit in the third quarter increased 9.2% year over year to RMB135.3 million (US$21.3 million) from RMB123.9 million (US$19.5 million) in the same period last year. Third quarter 2015 gross profit margin was 29.2%, compared to 32.8% in the prior year period. Gross margin in the third quarter decreased compared to the same period last year primarily due to increased materials prices and an increased mix of sales of switchgear and unit substations, which carry lower gross margins.

Selling and administrative expenses in the third quarter were RMB111.5 million (US$17.5 million), or 24.1% of net sales, compared to RMB92.2 million (US$14.5 million), or 24.4% of net sales, in the same period last year. Selling and administrative expenses increased from the same period last year due to increase in bad debt reservation and increased in research and development expense.

Operating income for the third quarter decreased 25% to RMB23.8 million (US$3.7 million), or 5.1% of net sales, from RMB31.7 million (US$5.0 million), or 8.4% of net sales, in the same period last year.

Net income for the third quarter decreased 25% to RMB19.6 million (US$3.1 million), or RMB1.21 (US$0.19) per diluted share, compared to RMB26.1 million (US$4.1 million), or RMB1.61 (US$0.25) per diluted share, in the same period last year. Third quarter net income, as a percentage of net sales, was 4.2% compared to 6.9% in the same period last year.

Mr. Zhiyuan Li, Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company, stated, "Our third quarter sales of RMB 462.6 million (US$72.7 million) exceeded our expectations. The strong sales performance reflects the results of our concerted effort to increase sales volume to offset margin pressure within the industry. This strategy is enabled by the increased production capacity and competitive cost structure of our Guilin production facility."

"During the third quarter we experienced the same positive dynamics that we have seen over the past several quarters. Our product sales continued to diversify, driven by a strong increase in sales of switchgear and unit substations. Sales to our OEM customers increased as our newest OEM, a leading global wind turbine manufacturer, ramped up shipments during the quarter."

"While our gross margins improved from the second quarter, we continued to experience margin pressure due to rising competition and product mix. We remained focused on managing our working capital and our days sales outstanding."

"We operate in a cyclical industry closely tied to China's economic environment, which is experiencing decelerating growth. We are focused on navigating the current industry down-cycle through disciplined execution and fiscal conservatism, with a vision to enter the recovery period in a more dominant competitive position within the market."

"At the end of October 2015, our backlog equaled RMB888 million (US$140 million), up 10.2% from the end of September last year and down 5.2% from the second quarter of 2015."

Balance Sheet

As of September 30, 2015, the Company had RMB219.9 million (US$34.6 million) in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short term investments, compared to RMB168.5 million (US$27.5 million) as of December 31, 2014. The Company's net accounts receivable on September 30, 2015 totaled RMB1.09 billion (US$171.4 million), compared to RMB858.0 million (US$140.2 million) as of December 31, 2014. Total bank loans outstanding at September 30, 2015 were RMB185.9 million (US$29.2 million), compared to RMB160.6 million (US$26.2 million) at December 31, 2014.
