ANNUAL REPORT 2018 5 CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT 6 GRAND BAOXIN AUTO GROUP LIMITED CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT In addition, with the increasing parc and aging of passenger vehicles in China, in 2018, the aftersales service market of passenger vehicles in China has continued to achieve rapid growth. As a result, the source of revenue and gross profit of Chinese car dealers has preliminarily completed the structural transformation from sale of new vehicles to after-sales services, which will facilitate the improvement of car dealers’ profitability. Looking forward to the future, the automobile dealership industry is being confronted with unprecedented reform and shuffle. In this new circumstance, we will embrace the new changes and new development brought by new areas, new models and new business with a strategic and forward-looking view. Focusing on the business philosophy of “people- oriented and customers first”, we will explore the new consumption logic in the new circumstance and proactively conduct synergy and cooperation between each business segment, launch new products and achieve service innovation by means of the powerful industry integration capability of the Group. In the end, on behalf of the Group, I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to all our shareholders, customers and business partners for their continuous trust and support and to all diligent and dedicated staff. We are convinced that, all the achievements the Group has made are attributed to their great support and the concerted efforts of our team. Looking forward to the future, promised by the vast market space in China, we are bound to attain our desired objectives and maximise returns for shareholders. Yours sincerely, LI Jianping Chairman Hong Kong, 29 March 2019 ANNUAL REPORT 2018 7 MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS INDUSTRY OVERVIEW Industry review In 2018, despite of being affected by many internal and external factors and confronted with the increasingly complicated international environment and a challenging and strenuous domestic reform mission, China’s economy has maintained its steady development progress. According to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, China’s GDP exceeded RMB90 trillion for the year of 2018, representing an increase of 6.6% compared to that of last year. The automobile industry was under pressure as a result of the changes in economic situation and policy environment in 2018. After the high-speed growth for several consecutive years, the production and sales volume of automobiles in China has reached a large base number of 29,400,000 units in 2017. It would be relatively difficult to obtain the continuous high growth on this basis again. Since the third quarter of 2018, affected by multiple factors including the cancellation of preferential treatment of purchase tax, deleveraging policy and escalating trade conflicts between China and the US, the growth in the sales of automobiles experienced a certain level of decline and weak market performance. According to statistics from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, the sales volume of passenger vehicles in the PRC amounted to 23.71 million units in 2018, representing a year-on-year decrease of 6.3% as compared with 2017. In 2018, in sharp contrast with the passenger vehicle market as a whole, the mainstream luxury automobile brands in China continued to grow and recorded a high year-on-year growth of 8%, outshining all other categories of vehicles. In 2018, according to the sales volume data officially published by luxury automobile companies, the sales volume of luxury automobiles reached 2.81 million units, accounting for 11.9% of the total sales volume of passenger vehicles of 23.71 million units in China. The high growth of the luxury automobile market in China was mainly driven by the demands for upgrading purchase as a result of the upgrade in consumption of previous car buyers, and the increase of sales volume of luxury automobiles was driven by the increase in demands for luxury brands by the younger generations in China.
