Dear User, As a key intermediate product in the lithium industry chain, lithium sulfate serves as a primary raw material for producing core lithium chemicals such as battery-grade lithium carbonate and battery-grade lithium hydroxide. Its supply and price influence the costs of downstream lithium battery materials and market operations. Currently, the lithium sulfate market lacks open and transparent representative price references. International trade and procurement pricing largely rely on bilateral negotiations, leading to issues such as information asymmetry and delayed price transmission. With lithium sulfate production from African lithium producers, represented by the Zimbabwe region, commencing and gradually entering the market, SMM has compiled and launched the " Africa Lithium Sulfate (CIF China) Price " to promote standardized and transparent pricing for African lithium sulfate and enhance the efficiency of the industry chain. This price aims to objectively reflect the market conditions of African lithium sulfate arriving at main Chinese ports. It will provide a reliable price benchmark for producers, traders, downstream enterprises, and financial institutions, supporting the standardized development and price discovery of the global lithium resources market. SMM's "Africa Lithium Sulfate (CIF China)" was officially launched today (January 21, 2026) . Details are as follows: Africa Lithium Sulfate (CIF China), Specification: Li₂SO₄·H₂O content ≥80% Product Name: Africa Lithium Sulfate (CIF China) Quality Standard: Li₂SO₄·H₂O content ≥80% Definition: CIF main Chinese ports Unit: $/mt Minimum Trading Volume: 60 mt Delivery Period: 2 months Release Time: Weekdays, 12:00 Beijing Time Payment Terms: Letter of credit, telegraphic transfer, or documents against payment other payment terms require separate negotiation. Welcome more relevant enterprises in the industry chain to participate and support SMM in better serving new energy industry chain enterprises.

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
