Dear User, Greetings! In recent years, the development of the secondary zinc industry has attracted significant attention however, the domestic supply of secondary zinc oxide has become increasingly tight. In contrast, Southeast Asia boasts abundant resources of secondary zinc oxide raw materials at relatively low prices, which has prompted many Chinese enterprises to establish production facilities in the region, with a considerable number choosing Vietnam. Meanwhile, amid growing uncertainties in international trade, an increasing number of companies are relocating their plants to Vietnam to achieve integrated procurement, production, and sales, gradually forming a market trend. To keep pace with the globalization of international trade and the market development of secondary zinc oxide both domestically and overseas, and to reflect the true price fluctuations of secondary zinc oxide in the global market, SMM plans to launch the CIF Imported Secondary Zinc Oxide Payable . The SMM CIF Imported Secondary Zinc Oxide Payable is an indicative price formed and published by SMM according to this methodology, which can be used by trading parties as a reference for settling secondary zinc oxide trades from Vietnam. This price reflects the mainstream price of the CIF Imported Secondary Zinc Oxide Payable​​​​​​​ for each month. The price will be officially launched on November 28, 2025, and historical prices can be viewed simultaneously on the SMM website (smm.cn). The price will be published by 18:00 on the last working day of each month. Price Definition: The mainstream transaction price of CIF Imported Secondary Zinc Oxide Payable in actual trades during the month. Going forward, SMM will continue to monitor changes in the zinc industry chain market, optimize SMM prices, and better serve the industry! For any inquiries regarding the price, please contact Zinc Analyst Hua Lin at 021-20707885 hualin@smm.cn. SMM Information & Technology Co., Ltd. Zinc Research Team November 21, 2025

Dear User, Greetings! The PV industry is currently accelerating its transition to N-type technology, with TOPCon modules emerging as a core product in major global markets due to their superior power density. Meanwhile, against the backdrop of increasingly complex global trade conditions and fluctuating international logistics costs, the market is demanding greater transparency in pricing information. Standalone FOB prices can no longer adequately meet the needs of upstream and downstream players in the industry chain for accurately calculating overseas landing costs. As CIF prices more directly reflect the actual competitiveness of products in target markets, their importance as a basis for trade settlement and a tool for risk hedging has become increasingly prominent. To better understand the actual CIF market conditions for module exports to Southeast Asia and help enterprises reduce transaction risks and costs amid complex trade dynamics, SMM, after a period of market observation and surveys, plans to officially add the following product prices starting January 23, 2026, as references for market transactions: TOPCon Module-182mm-CIF Malaysia TOPCon Module-210mm-CIF Malaysia TOPCon Module-210R-CIF Malaysia The published prices are all CIF prices for major ports in Malaysia. Specific specifications and descriptions are as follows: Price Point Names: TOPCon Module-182mm-CIF Malaysia TOPCon Module-210mm-CIF Malaysia TOPCon Module-210R-CIF Malaysia Price Description: Price Type: CIF Major Ports in Malaysia Tax Standard: Tax-excluded Definition: CIF Price for Major Ports in Malaysia Unit: $/W Leading Brands: LONGi Green Energy Technology Co., Ltd., Jinko Solar Co., Ltd., Trinasolar Co., Ltd., JA Solar Co., Ltd., CSI Solar, CHINT Group Co., Ltd., etc. Minimum Trading Volume: 10 MW Delivery Period: Within 3 months Release Time: Every Friday at 11:00 AM Beijing Time Payment Terms: Cash, and other payment methods standardized to cash SMM PV Research Team January 13, 2026

Dear User, Currently, India has gradually become an important global manufacturing and export base for PV modules. In actual trade, Indian made modules exhibit differentiated supply-demand relationships and price performances in the spot market due to the varying origins of the solar cells used. To facilitate upstream and downstream enterprises in the PV industry chain to better understand India's module export and local market conditions, grasp real-time international spot price dynamics, and convey more comprehensive and diverse price information to the market, thereby reducing transaction risks and costs in overseas trade, SMM, after a period of consolidation and market surveys, plans to officially add the 'TOPCon Module-Indian Made（with domestic solar cells)' and 'TOPCon Module-Indian Made（without domestic solar cells)' product prices as market trading references starting from January 23, 2026. The published prices are all ex-work prices for these modules in India, with specific specifications and descriptions as follows: Price Point Names: TOPCon Module-Indian Made（with domestic solar cells) TOPCon Module-Indian Made（without domestic solar cells) Price Description: Price Type: Indian ex-work price (EXW) Tax Rate Standard: Tax-excluded Definition: Indian ex-work price With Domestic Solar Cells: Refers to modules manufactured in India, with the solar cells used also produced locally in India.

To Our Valued Users, Hello! As a key intermediate product in the lithium industry chain, lithium sulfate serves as a primary raw material for producing core lithium salts such as battery-grade lithium carbonate and battery-grade lithium hydroxide. Its supply and pricing directly impact the cost of downstream lithium battery materials and overall market operations. Currently, the lithium sulfate market lacks open and transparent representative price benchmarks, with international trade and procurement pricing largely reliant on bilateral negotiations, leading to issues such as information asymmetry and delays in price transmission. With lithium sulfate production from relevant African lithium producers, represented by the Zimbabwe region, commencing and gradually entering the market, SMM has developed and is now launching the "Africa Lithium Sulfate (CIF China) Price" to promote the standardization and transparency of African lithium sulfate pricing and enhance the efficiency of industrial chain collaboration. This initiative aims to objectively reflect the market conditions of African lithium sulfate arriving at major Chinese ports, providing a reliable price benchmark for producers, traders, downstream enterprises, and financial institutions, thereby supporting the standardized development and price discovery of the global lithium resource market. Release time：2026.Jan.22 The price will be updated every business day at 12:00 Beijing Time for market reference. Product Name: Africa Lithium Sulfate (CIF China) Quality Standard: Li₂SO₄·H₂O content ≥ 80% Definition: CIF major Chinese ports Unit: USD/ton Minimum Transaction Volume: 60 tons Delivery Period: 2 months Release Time: Every business day at 12:00 Beijing Time Payment Terms: Letter of Credit (L/C), Telegraphic Transfer (T/T), or Documents Against Payment (D/P). Other payment terms are subject to negotiation. We welcome more relevant enterprises across the industrial chain to participate and support SMM in better serving the new energy industry.
