SHANGHAI, April 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Daqo New Energy Corp. (NYSE: DQ) ("Daqo New Energy" or the "Company"), a leading manufacturer of high-purity polysilicon for the global solar PV industry, today announced it will release its unaudited financial results for first quarter ended March 31, 2026, before U.S. markets open on Wednesday, April 29, 2026. The Company will hold a conference call to discuss the financial results at 8:00 AM U.S. Eastern Time on Wednesday, April 29, 2026 (8:00 PM Beijing / Hong Kong time on the same day).

Daqo New Energy has been selling off for the better part of the past five months or so, but this may also have created an opportunity to take advantage of. A bit of technical analysis suggests the decline of the last few months could be over, which means now could be a good time to enter. DQ has been losing money, including in the recently concluded fiscal year, but there are several reasons why long DQ is worth considering.
