Investment Daily Daily Focus China March Passenger Vehicle Wholesales Volume Grew 83%  CPCA announced that March passenger vehicles wholesale volume was Great Wall Motor(2333) Info 1,838,000 which grew 61.6% MoM and 83.3% YoY. It dropped 4.6% Closed price 22.30 compared to March 2019. It was basically in line with expectation. Q121 wholesale volume was 5,004,000 which grew 77.2% YoY and declined Expected P/E (X) 19.5 Expected Dividend 2.9% compared to March 2019. 2.4 yield (%)  March NEV wholesale volume was 202,000 which grew 1.01 times Mom 52 week high 31.46 and 2.61 times YoY. It beat expectation. March NEV retail penetration 52 week low 17.84 rate was 10.5% while that of Q1 was 8.6%. There was an obvious increase 14RSI 49.2 from 5.8% in 2020. NEV penetration rate of local brands was 20.5% while that of luxury cars was 15%. However, NEV penetration rate of mainstream JV brands was just 1.3%.  For march sales volume of Hong Kong listed automobile firms, overall performance was not outstanding. March sales volume of BYD(1211), Geely(175) and GAC Motor(2238) grew 33.4%,37% and 57.6% YoY, which lagged the industry. Sales volume of Great Wall Motor(2333) grew 84.4% which was in line with market performance. In terms of 1Q21 performance, Great Wall Motor performance outperformed market which was 1.3 times YoY. BYD, GAC Motor and Geely growth was also slower than industry level. They grew 70%, 62.2% and 62% YoY.  Forward looking 21Q2 sales volume, low base effect will fade gradually. And automobile brands remove inventory requirement. Dealers lack stocking incentives. CAAM mentioned that surge in raw material price increases cost pressure of automobile manufacturers. And chips supply shortage persists. CAAM expects that 21Q2 impact will be larger than 21Q1. And 21Q4 chip supply is expected to improve. Considering the above factors, sales volume growth is expected to decelerate in near term.  In short term, Shanghai car exhibition will open in April 19. Major brands will announce new car models which may possibly serve as short term catalyst. For individual stocks, we prefer Great Wall Motor as its sales continues to outperform peers. And its product range is wide. NEV new models are widely accepted by young consumers. But chip shortage and concerns over increasing raw material price will continue to drag sector performance. Investors are suggested to take wait and see attitude. Analyst: Tracy Chan Lok Yee
