•

Operating profit decreased to RMB 162.2 million (US$ 25.0 million) compared with RMB 391.1 million in the same quarter of 2014;

 

•

•

Total number of engines sold was 60,143 units compared with 93,094 units in the fourth quarter of 2014.

Gross profit decreased by 28.7% to RMB 692.1 million (US$ 106.6 million) compared with RMB 970.1 million in the same quarter of 2014. The gross profit decline was mainly attributable to lower unit sales in the fourth quarter of 2015 compared with the same quarter of 2014. Gross margin was 23.7% in the fourth quarter of 2015 compared with 24.7% in the same quarter of 2014.

Other operating income was RMB 25.8 million (US$ 4.0 million), compared with RMB 13.8 million in the same quarter of 2014. This increase was mainly due to foreign exchange gain in the fourth quarter of 2015 as compared to a loss in the corresponding quarter of 2014.

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses declined by 7.6% to RMB 122.5 million (US$ 18.9 million) from RMB 132.6 million in the same quarter of 2014. As a percentage of net revenue, R&D spending was 4.2% compared with 3.4% in the same quarter of 2014. R&D expenses reflected development and testing costs as new engines were introduced to the market and GYMCL continued its initiatives to improve engine quality. Although the market condition softened, the Company maintained its efforts in R&D to prepare for the transition from Tier 2 to Tier 3 emission standards in the off-road segment and continued to introduce new engine models.

Selling, general & administrative (“SG&A”) expenses decreased by 5.9% to RMB 433.3 million (US$ 66.7 million) from RMB 460.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. SG&A expenses represented 14.8% of net revenue compared with 11.7% in the fourth quarter of 2014. The increase in the SG&A percentage was mainly due to the effect of lower unit sales.

Operating profit decreased by 58.5% to RMB 162.2 million (US$ 25.0 million) from RMB 391.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. The decrease was mainly due to lower revenue and lower gross profit in the fourth quarter of 2015. The operating margin was 5.5% compared with 10.0% in the fourth quarter of 2014.

Finance costs decreased by 39.5% to RMB 22.1 million (US$ 3.4 million) from RMB 36.5 million in the same quarter of 2014. Lower finance costs mainly resulted from lower costs for term loans.

The share of joint ventures was a gain of RMB 16.3 million (US$ 2.5 million), compared with a loss of RMB 3.6 million in the same quarter of 2014. This was mainly due to the reversal of impairment made for a joint venture of our subsidiary that was booked in 2013.

In the fourth quarter of 2015, total net profit attributable to China Yuchai’s shareholders was RMB 59.0 million (US$ 9.1 million), or earnings per share of RMB 1.50 (US$ 0.23), compared with RMB 241.2 million, or earnings per share of RMB 6.31 in the same quarter in 2014.

Earnings per share in the fourth quarter 2015 was based on a weighted average of 39,298,340 shares compared with earnings per share in the fourth quarter 2014 which was based on a weighted average of 38,195,706 shares.

Net revenue decreased by 16.4% to RMB 13.7 billion (US$ 2.1 billion) compared with RMB 16.4 billion in 2014.

The total number of engines sold by GYMCL in 2015 was 364,567 units compared with 483,825 units in 2014, representing a decrease of 119,258 units, or 24.6%. As reported by CAAM, sales of commercial vehicles (excluding gasoline-powered and electric-powered vehicles) decreased by 14.4% in 2015. The market remained weak in the heavy- and medium-duty truck segments, which registered a decline in sales of 26.0% and 21.0%, respectively. The market was also weak in the heavy- and medium-duty bus segments, which registered a decline in sales of 25.5% and 19.8%, respectively.

Gross profit decreased by 15.2% to RMB 2.8 billion (US$ 429.7 million) compared with RMB 3.3 billion in 2014. The gross profit decline was mainly attributable to lower unit sales. Gross profit margin increased to 20.3% compared with 20.0% in 2014. The higher gross margin was mainly due to higher average selling price and lower raw material costs.

Other operating income was RMB 19.3 million (US$ 3.0 million) compared with RMB 94.9 million in 2014, a decrease of RMB 75.6 million. This decrease was mainly due to foreign exchange losses and losses from the disposal of GYMCL’s shareholding interest in Xiamen Yuchai Diesel Engines Co., Ltd. (“Xiamen Factory”).

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses increased by 2.5% to RMB 507.0 million (US$ 78.1 million) compared with RMB 494.6 million in 2014. As a percentage of net revenue, R&D spending was 3.7% compared with 3.0% in 2014. R&D expenses increased mainly due to the ongoing research and development of new and existing engine products as well as continued initiatives to improve engine quality. Although the market condition softened, the Company maintained its efforts in R&D to prepare for the transition from Tier 2 to Tier 3 emission standards in the off-road segment and continued to introduce new engine models.

Selling, general & administrative (“SG&A”) expenses declined 6.3% to RMB 1.5 billion (US$ 230.7 million) compared with RMB 1.6 billion in 2014. SG&A expenses represented 10.9% of net revenue, compared with 9.7% in 2014. The increase in the SG&A percentage was mainly due to the effect of lower unit sales.

Operating profit decreased by 37.7% to RMB 805.2 million (US$ 124.0 million) from RMB 1.3 billion in 2014. The decrease was mainly due to lower revenues. The operating margin was 5.9% compared with 7.9% in 2014.

Finance costs declined 25.7% to RMB 116.4 million (US$ 17.9 million) from RMB 156.7 million in 2014. Lower finance costs mainly resulted from lower costs for term loans and less bills discounting.

The share of joint ventures was a loss of RMB 2.9 million (US$ 0.5 million), compared with a loss of RMB 30.7 million in 2014. This was mainly due to the reversal of impairment made for a joint venture of our subsidiary that was booked in 2013.

In 2015, there was a loss of RMB 17.3 million (US$ 2.7 million) relating to Xiamen Factory’s disposal. However, in 2014, there were gains arising from acquisitions of RMB 95.2 million.

The net profit attributable to China Yuchai’s shareholders was RMB 341.1 million (US$ 52.5 million), or earnings per share of RMB 8.81 (US$ 1.36), compared with RMB 730.3 million, or earnings per share of RMB 19.36 in 2014.

Earnings per share were based on a weighted average of 38,712,282 shares compared with earnings per share in 2014 which were based on a weighted average of 37,720,248 shares. In July 2015, 1,102,634 new shares were issued to shareholders who elected to receive shares in lieu of dividend in cash.

We managed to improve our average selling price and maintained our profitability despite the decline in unit sales in a weaker than usual market environment.”

“While we wait for the economy to improve, we will continue to focus on costs control, expanding our product offerings, improving engine quality and strengthening our financial position,” Mr. Hoh concluded.
