These programmes included incumbent and conquest business. Customer programmes that began production during the six months ended June 30, 2017 included: OEMs Vehicle Nameplate Our Products North America GM Chevrolet Equinox DL Buick Terrain DL Chevrolet Traverse Rack-assist EPS, DL Europe & South America FCA Fiat Argo Column-assist EPS (CEPS) GM Opel Crossland Single pinion-assist EPS (SPEPS) Asia Pacific BMW 1-Series SPEPS X1 SPEPS *Changan Changan CS55 CEPS Dongfeng Liuzhou Jingyi S50 EV CEPS Jingyi SX3 CEPS GM Buick Velite DL Chevrolet Equinox DL Renault Nissan Renault Lodgy DL Tata Motors Ace, Iris, Majic, Zip DL * Related to a non-consolidated joint venture 04 NEXTEER AUTOMOTIVE GROUP LIMITED INTERIM REPORT 2017 Business Overview BACKLOG OF BOOKED BUSINESS We begin to realise revenue under a new business contract at the start of production as steering systems and driveline products are first shipped to vehicle manufacturers at the time of product launch. Product launches have historically lagged the date of contract award by an average period of 24 to 30 months. We have calculated a booked business backlog value which includes the value of awarded business for as yet, undelivered product generating revenue between the time of launch through the end of the life of the respective award (the “order to delivery” backlog valuation model). We estimate the value of all booked business under contracts that have been awarded, but for which we have undelivered products, which amounts to approximately US$24.0 billion (the Booked Business Amount or Booked Business) as at June 30, 2017, compared to US$25.6 billion as at December 31, 2016. The backlog decreased due to the partial cancellation of a programme, as well as other platform adjustments, as a result of GM’s plan to sell its Opel-Vauxhall subsidiary to PSA during the six months ended June 30, 2017. The value of Booked Business is not a measure defined by International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), and our methodology for determining the Booked Business Amount may not be comparable to the methodology used by other companies in determining the value of their booked business. Assumptions relative to estimated lifetime programme volumes and contract performance remain unchanged from our disclosures in prior periods. Any modification or suspension of the contracts related to the Booked Business by the Group’s customers may have a substantial and immediate effect on the value of the Booked Business.
