The financial information presented herein for 2017 and 2016 is reported using International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Financial Highlights for the First Quarter of 2017

    Gross profit rose by 52.3% to RMB 920.7 million (US$ 133.4 million), with an increase in gross margin to 20.2% compared with RMB 604.3 million and a gross margin of 17.9% in the first quarter of 2016;

 

    Operating profit increased by 134.4% to RMB 430.8 million (US$ 62.4 million) compared with RMB 183.8 million in the same quarter of 2016;

 

    Net earnings attributable to China Yuchai’s shareholders increased by 179.2% to RMB 249.0 million (US$ 36.1 million) from RMB 89.2 million in the first quarter of 2016;

Gross profit increased by 52.3% to RMB 920.7 million (US$ 133.4 million) compared with RMB 604.3 million in the same quarter of 2016. Gross margin rose to 20.2% in the first quarter of 2017 compared with 17.9% in the same quarter of 2016. The gross profit increase was mainly attributable to higher sales and better product mix.

Other operating income was RMB 39.6 million (US$ 5.7 million) compared with RMB 23.3 million in the same quarter of 2016. The increase was due to higher interest income and higher gains on foreign exchange revaluation in the first quarter of 2017 as compared to the same quarter of 2016.

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses increased by 25.1% to RMB 124.6 million (US$ 18.1 million) from RMB 99.6 million in the same quarter of 2016. As a percentage of net revenue, R&D spending was 2.7% compared with 2.9% in the same quarter of 2016. R&D expenses continued to reflect development and testing costs of new engines meeting higher emission standards and GYMCL’s continued initiatives to improve engine quality.

Selling, general & administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased by 17.6% to RMB 404.9 million (US$ 58.7 million) from RMB 344.1 million in the first quarter of 2016. SG&A expenses represented 8.9% of net revenue compared with 10.2% in the first quarter of 2016. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily related to higher freight usage and warranty expenses due to higher sales.

Operating profit increased by 134.4% to RMB 430.8 million (US$ 62.4 million) from RMB 183.8 million in the first quarter of 2016. The operating margin was 9.4% compared with 5.4% in the same period of 2016.

Finance costs decreased by 7.7% to RMB 26.8 million (US$ 3.9 million) from RMB 29.0 million in the same quarter of 2016. Lower finance costs mainly resulted from reduced bank loans and borrowings. Bank borrowings were RMB 1.4 billion (US$ 198.7 million) compared with RMB 2.6 billion in the same period in 2016.

Total net profit attributable to China Yuchai’s shareholders was RMB 249.0 million (US$ 36.1 million), or earnings per share of RMB 6.12 (US$ 0.89), compared with RMB 89.2 million, or earnings per share of RMB 2.27 in the same quarter in 2016.

Earnings per share in the first quarter of 2017 was based on a weighted average of 40,712,100 shares compared with 39,298,340 shares in the same period in 2016. In June 2016, 1,413,760 new shares were issued to shareholders who elected to receive shares in lieu of dividend in cash.

    Cash and bank balances were RMB 4.2 billion (US$ 614.8 million) compared with RMB 4.1 billion at the end of 2016;
