AsianFin -- GCL Technology Holdings is expecting to release more details soon regarding plans to restructure China’s polysilicon industry, the company indicated during a call with investors on Sunday.

Chief Financial Officer Yang Wenzhong said the company anticipates clearer guidance on the reform, which would help GCL better forecast future cash flows. “We believe that clearer information should come out soon about the reform, and we will have a better grasp of how our future cash flow will go,” Yang said, responding to a question about a proposed acquisition fund. He also noted that it was “not 100 percent certain” the restructuring would take place this year.

Yang added that GCL might use some of its own cash to support the industry-wide reform, but the company is still evaluating how much, emphasizing careful fund management amid uncertainty.

The proposed plan, details of which were not fully disclosed during the call, would involve GCL and other leading producers acquiring and shutting down roughly one-third of the industry’s polysilicon capacity. Analysts expect that such consolidation could boost polysilicon prices, with potential downstream impacts on China’s solar panel industry, which has been operating at a loss in recent months.

The move comes as China’s solar sector faces both overcapacity and margin pressure. Market observers have noted that reducing supply could help stabilize prices and improve profitability across the solar value chain.

GCL, a major player in the global polysilicon market, has been closely monitoring government guidance on industrial consolidation. The company’s cautious approach to deploying its own cash highlights the uncertainties surrounding timing, scale, and regulatory approval for the proposed restructuring.
