The worse-than-expected results were mainly dragged by weak auto sales and decrease in gross margin. Key takeaways are as follows: In 1H19, sales volume decreased 2.5% yoy to 460,269 units. The disclosed sales volume is inconsistent with the monthly sales data due to more stringent accounting recognition policy. The difference was mainly due to sales made to 27 August 2019 ride-hailing and export companies, of which ownership tittle is not fully transferred. ASP significantly decreased by 13.8% yoy in 1H19. The significant decrease was mainly due to more sales towards the ORA brand, which is priced relatively cheaper than the overall Haval series. Moreover, export sales will also be priced slightly lower to increase competitiveness. Gross margin reduced 5.2 ppts to 15.9% yoy. During the period, the Company increased quick sales and promotional discounts due to a generally weak auto environment with early implementation of China 6 emission standards. Administrative expense increased 24.3% yoy and R&D expenses increased by 8.9% yoy in 1H19. Administrative expense was mainly driven by the increased depreciation and amortization expense and] consultation2 r a M t feeh g s. i R _ e l b a T [ Selling expense per revenue ratio was down by 0.7 ppts yoy. The decrease was mainly due to changes in classification of transportation expenses. On the other hand, advertising expense increased significantly by 37.7% yoy as to promote its multi-branding strategy. Similar to the prior period, no interim dividend was announced for 1H19.
