Gross profit increased by 47.2% to RMB 1.0 billion (US$ 146.9 million) compared with RMB 692.1 million in the same quarter of 2015. Gross margin rose to 27.3% in the fourth quarter of 2016 compared with 23.7% in the same quarter of 2015. The gross profit increase was mainly attributable to lower raw material costs and better product mix.

Other operating income was RMB 43.6 million (US$ 6.3 million) compared with RMB 25.8 million in the same quarter of 2015. This increase was due to higher government grants in the fourth quarter of 2016 as compared to the same quarter of 2015.

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses increased by 53.0% to RMB 187.3 million (US$ 27.0 million) from RMB 122.5 million in the same quarter of 2015. As a percentage of net revenue, R&D spending was 5.0% compared with 4.2% in the same quarter of 2015. R&D expenses reflected 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 14.4% to RMB 495.7 million (US$ 71.5 million) from RMB 433.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. SG&A expenses represented 13.3% of net revenue compared with 14.8% in the fourth quarter of 2015. The decrease in the SG&A as a percentage of total net sales was mainly due to higher net sales.

Operating profit increased by 133.9% to RMB 379.3 million (US$ 54.7 million) from RMB 162.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. The increase was mainly due to higher revenue and higher gross profit. The operating margin was 10.2% compared with 5.5% in the same period of 2015.

Finance costs decreased by 48.8% to RMB 11.3 million (US$ 1.6 million) from RMB 22.1 million in the same quarter of 2015. Lower finance costs mainly resulted from reduced bank loans and borrowings. External borrowings decreased to RMB 910.4 million from RMB 2.5 billion in the same period in 2015.

The share of joint ventures’ gain was RMB 1.8 million (US$ 0.3 million), compared with RMB 16.3 million in the same quarter of 2015. This was mainly due to a one-time reversal of the impairment made for a joint venture of our subsidiary in 2015.

In the fourth quarter of 2016, total net profit attributable to China Yuchai’s shareholders was RMB 226.0 million (US$ 32.6 million), or earnings per share of RMB 5.55 (US$ 0.80), compared with RMB 59.0 million, or earnings per share of RMB 1.50 in the same quarter in 2015.

Earnings per share in the fourth quarter of 2016 was based on a weighted average of 40,712,100 shares compared with 39,298,340 shares in the same period in 2015. In June 2016, 1,413,760 new shares were issued to shareholders who elected to receive shares in lieu of dividend in cash.

    Gross profit increased by 6.2% to RMB 3.0 billion (US$ 427.3 million) with gross margin increasing to 21.7%, compared with RMB 2.8 billion and a gross margin of 20.3% in 2015;

 

    Operating profit increased by 20.1% to RMB 967.2 million (US$ 139.4 million) compared with RMB 805.2 million in 2015;

 

    Earnings per share rose by 46.3% to RMB 12.89 (US$ 1.86) compared with RMB 8.81 in 2015;

 

    The total number of engines sold declined by 12.1% to 320,424 units compared with 364,567 units in 2015.

Net revenue was RMB 13.7 billion (US$ 2.0 billion) compared with RMB 13.7 billion in 2015.

The total number of engines sold by GYMCL in 2016 was 320,424 units compared with 364,567 units in 2015, representing a decrease of 44,143 units, or 12.1%, mainly due to lower unit sales to the agricultural market. According to CAAM, sales of commercial vehicles (excluding gasoline-powered and electric-powered vehicles) increased by 8.3% in 2016. The truck market rebounded with an 11.6% gain led by a 33.1% increase in heavy-duty truck sales. The bus market remained weak experiencing a 9.9% decline in overall sales with heavy-duty bus sales down by 20.1%. Again, GYMCL on-road engine sales reflected the sales trend in the commercial vehicle market.

Gross profit increased by 6.2% to RMB 3.0 billion (US$ 427.3 million) compared with RMB 2.8 billion in 2015. The gross profit margin increased to 21.7% compared with 20.3% in 2015. The higher gross profit and higher gross profit margin were mainly due to lower raw material costs and better product mix.

Other operating income increased by 393.1% to RMB 95.4 million (US$ 13.7 million) compared with RMB 19.3 million in 2015. This increase was mainly due to lower foreign exchange revaluation losses, higher interest income from bank deposits and a one-time loss in 2015 from the disposal of GYMCL’s entire shareholding interest in Xiamen Yuchai Diesel Engines Co., Ltd.

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses increased by 16.0% to RMB 588.0 million (US$ 84.8 million) compared with RMB 507.0 million in 2015. As a percentage of net revenue, R&D spending was 4.3% compared with 3.7% in 2015. 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. The Company remains committed to its R&D programs and continues to introduce new engine models for both the on- and off – road markets compliant with increasingly stringent emission standards.

Selling, general & administrative (“SG&A”) expenses remained unchanged at RMB 1.5 billion (US$ 216.9 million) for 2016 and 2015. These expenses represented 11.0% of net revenue, compared with 10.9% in 2015.

Operating profit increased by 20.1% to RMB 967.2 million (US$ 139.4 million) from RMB 805.2 million in 2015. The operating margin was 7.1% compared with 5.9% in 2015.

Finance costs declined by 31.5% to RMB 79.7 million (US$ 11.5 million) from RMB 116.4 million in 2015. Lower finance costs mainly resulted from reduced bank loans and borrowings. External borrowings decreased to RMB 910.4 million from RMB 2.5 billion in the same period in 2015.

The share of joint ventures was a loss of RMB 4.1 million (US$ 0.6 million), compared with a loss of RMB 2.9 million in 2015.

The net profit attributable to China Yuchai’s shareholders was RMB 515.7 million (US$ 74.3 million), or earnings per share of RMB 12.89 (US$ 1.86), compared with RMB 341.1 million, or earnings per share of RMB 8.81 in 2015.

Earnings per share were based on a weighted average of 40,016,808 shares compared with 38,712,282 shares in 2015. In June 2016, 1,413,760 new shares were issued to shareholders who elected to receive shares in lieu of dividend in cash.
