Reason
Roth Capital raised the firm's price target on Daqo New Energy to $30 from $25 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The company delivered a Q3 earnings beat and issued a healthy Q4 guide while also recording a positive gross margin for the first time since Q1 of 2024, the analyst tells investors in a research note. While this is largely due to a reversal of an inventory write-down, the management believes that positive gross margins could continue given expected average sales price recovery and cost reductions, the firm added.

Goldman Sachs downgraded Daqo New Energy to Sell from Neutral with a Rmb 15.40 price target. The firm believes the current valuation has priced in too much long-term optimism in terms of both price and volume upside, the analyst tells investors.

Reason
Roth Capital raised the firm's price target on Daqo New Energy to $25 from $14 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The company delivered a Q2 miss and slightly lowered its 2025 production guidance, and while Q2 was another quarter selling below cost, Daqo sees Q3 as an inflection point with the potential for cash cost breakeven due to an "anti-involution" initiative from Chinese authorities, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm added that the bottom may be in for Daqo, but it remains on the sidelines until the industry right-sizes and returns to healthy margins.
