Trina Solar Limited announced unaudited consolidated earnings results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2013. For the quarter, net revenues were $440,725,000, operating loss was $23,855,000, loss before income taxes was $34,543,000 and net loss attributable to the company's share holders was $33,650,000 or $0.47 per basic and diluted ADS against net revenues were $346,054,000, operating loss was $78,607,000, loss before income taxes was $108,205,000 and net loss attributable to the company's share holders was $92,097,000 or $1.30 per basic and diluted ADS for the same period a year ago.

During the third quarter of 2013, the company expects to ship between 650 MW to 680 MW of PV modules. The company believes its overall gross margin for the third quarter, taking into account wafer and cell quantities outsourced from third party suppliers to meet demand in excess of its internal capacity and other needs will be in the low double digits in percentage terms. Such guidance is based on the exchange rate between the Euro and U.S. dollar as of August 20, 2013.

For the full year 2013, the company revises its previous PV module shipment guidance of between 2.0 GW and 2.1 GW to 2.3 GW and 2.4 GW.
