2| China EVs Mirae Asset Securities Research Summary

China’s EV market • We expect China’s (EV) market to expand at a CAGR of 39% over the next five years, growth to exceed with sales volume rising from 1.37mn units in 2020 to 7mn in 2025. expectations • China’s car ownership rate remains relatively low, at 17%. Factoring in the country’s economic/income growth prospects, we forecast sales volume to increase at 2% CAGR over the coming decade. • The market share of EVs is likely to increase steadily in line with the government’s long-term goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2060 and the milestones laid out in the latest “Technology Roadmap for Energy Saving and New Energy Vehicles (NEVs)”. EV penetration stands at just 10% in China despite surging sales over the past year. • While competition will likely intensify in the EV market, we still see some investment opportunities. • In our view, pure EV players who gained early leadership hold competitive advantages over most legacy automakers. • Pure EV makers Tesla and NIO deserve attention in light of their superior technology, mass production capabilities, and brand value. Among traditional automakers, BYD looks promising given its rapidly increasing EV sales mix. • Other factors to consider are: technological advantages (autonomous driving, battery swapping systems, etc.), vertical integration (across batteries, power control units, motors, etc.), customer base loyalty, lineup diversity, and market positioning (exposure to high-end/luxury segments). • Overall, we prefer upstream players (batteries/components/raw materials) that have secured dominant positions within the value chain to downstream names that are facing growing competition. • Key recommendations: Global X China EV and Battery ETF (2845/9845 HK), BYD (002594 CH), CATL (300750 CH), and NIO (NIO US).

Auto market reported • In 2020, China’s auto market contracted 2% YoY, with total sales volume coming in at 25.31mn units (vs -13% YoY negative growth for to 77mn globally). • China is the world’s largest consumer of cars with a 33% market share (vs. 21% for Europe and 19% for the US) as three straight years of 2020. • China’s auto sales have decreased YoY over the past three years, due to: 1) an economic decline (China-US trade dispute); 2) tighter emissions regulations (lack of new models in compliance with new rules); and 3) depressed consumption amid the COVID-19 pandemic (Dec. 2020–Mar. 2021)

2020 auto sales: • In 2020, car sales in China slipped just 2% YoY despite the pandemic. Solid performance • As the spread of the virus slowed, we saw sales volume expansion for 13 straight months (starting in Apr. 2020), led by: 1) robust demand for luxury cars triggered by so-called revenge consumption; and 2) strong sales of NEVs. despite the pandemic • Meanwhile, sales growth swung to negative again in May 2021 due to production disruptions caused by global chip shortages.

Sustainability of growth • China’s car ownership rate remains relatively low at 17%. • Going forward, we forecast car sales volume to increase at 2% CAGR, although sales could be affected by global macroeconomic conditions. • We expect NEV sales volume to grow in line with the government’s long-term goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2060 and the milestones laid out in the latest ”Technology Roadmap for Energy Saving and NEVs”. • In Jul. 2021, the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM) raised its NEV sales volume forecasts for 2021 from 1.8mn units to 2.4mn units, and also revised up its sales volume growth estimate over the next five years from 35% to over 40%.

Who will survive? • While the EV market is set to continue growing, market players should face intensifying competition going forward. • In our view, pure EV players who gained early leadership hold competitive advantages over most legacy automakers. - Pure EV makers Tesla and NIO deserve attention in light of their superior technology, mass production capabilities, and brand value. - Among traditional OEMs, companies seeing rapid EV sales mix expansion (BYD, etc.) look promising. • Brands with exposure to high-priced/luxury segments appear to have more upside than those positioned in the hotly contested low/mid-priced segments. • Other factors to consider are: technological advantages (autonomous driving, battery swapping systems, etc.), vertical integration (across batteries, power control units, motors, etc.), customer base loyalty, lineup diversity, and market positioning (exposure to high-end/luxury segments). • We prefer upstream players (batteries/components/raw materials) that have secured dominant positions within the value chain to downstream names that are facing growing competition. • Key recommendations: Global X China EV and Battery ETF (2845/9845 HK), BYD (002594 CH), CATL (300750 CH), and NIO (NIO US).

Full speed ahead Investment points • Quickly transitioning to EVs Rating - The company produces and sells both BEVs and PHEVs and is looking to move beyond the low/mid-tier Buy (Maintain) segment to the premium/luxury segment (2022-23). The company also has EV core component technologies (batteries/motors/power control units) and an EV-dedicated platform. - We forecast EVs as a share of overall sales volume to rise to 69% in 2021, 75% in 2022, and 81% in 2023 (vs. Target price CNY300.0 less than 50% in 2019 and 2020). (12M) • EV battery earnings growth Current price - We see EV battery revenue showing average annual growth of 471% over the next three years CNY227.50 (7/20/21) - Management is strongly committed to external sales, and the company’s Blade Battery has been recognized for its performance and safety. BYD is already a battery supplier to FAW and Changan, while automakers like Toyota, Ford, and Daimler are also actively considering the company’s products. Expected Return 31.9% - The spin-off and IPO of the battery unit (expected in 2022) should provide upside momentum to share prices (as seen in the semiconductor unit spin-off).

EPS growth (22F, %) 20.4 Valuation: We derived our target price of CNY300 by applying 105x (average 2022F peer multiple) to our 2022F P/E (22F, x) 79.5 EPS.

Still plenty of upside ahead

Investment points Rating Buy (Maintain) • CATL has made rapid advances in the global market, capturing 9.9% of the EV battery market outside of China in 1Q21 (vs. 0.4% in 2019 and 6.5% in 2020).

Target price - We expect further market share gains, fueled by: 1) exports of China-made Tesla EVs (e.g., Model 3) to CNY570.00 (12M) Europe; and 2) the operation of CATL’s Germany plant (supply to German OEMs and Gigafactory Berlin). • CATL also has a diversified customer portfolio (rather than relying on just a handful of OEMs), which translates to a stable revenue structure. Current price CNY450.23 (6/22/21) - Major customers include OEMs that are poised to gain market share (e.g., Tesla, NIO, Li Auto, XPeng, etc.). • We believe CATL is well-positioned to maintain its dominant position in China (50% market share), as its cost competitiveness, superior technology/product quality, and large production capacity should allow it to Expected Return 27.5% continue to benefit from the growth of the Chinese EV market. • CATL has achieved cost competitiveness through: 1) higher capex efficiency; 2) low labor costs; 3) economies of scale and cost savings (through supply chain management); and 4) higher utilization rates.

Taking on Tesla with battery subscription model

Investment points Rating Buy (Maintain) • We forecast NIO’s sales volume to grow 49% annually through 2025 and its market share to reach 7.6% in 2025 (vs. 4.4% in 2020).

Target price • We believe NIO is well-positioned as a luxury BEV maker over the long run, amid: 1) the accelerating transition US$51.00 (12M) to NEVs; and 2) China’s favorable social dynamics, such as increasing demand for luxury goods. • The company will enter the electric sedan market with the launch of the ET7. Product portfolio expansion will likely help diversify the company’s revenue base. Current price US$33.46 (5/19/21) • NIO has improved the EV customer experience by providing differentiated charging convenience and a Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) subscription program.

Expected Return 52.4% Valuation: We derived our target price by applying an EV/sales ratio of 7.6x (Tesla’s average multiple during 2014-16).
