This successful transition has enabled us to emerge as a tier 1 module supplier in the world. Furthermore, we are actively growing our downstream business. In the second half of 2014, we expect to sustain both our growth and profitability, due to accelerating activity in China, and continued favorable product and geographic mix&#8221;<strong><strong>.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/investors.jasolar.com\/phoenix.zhtml?c=208005&amp;p=irol-newsArticle&amp;ID=1959663&amp;highlight=\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">JA Solar<\/a><\/em><strong><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>JASO Q2 2014 Results JA Solar (JASO) announced a good set of Q2 2014 results.
