Weichai Power Co. Ltd. provided consolidated earnings guidance for the six months ended June 30, 2015. Based on a preliminary review of the consolidated management accounts of the company, the group is expected to record a decline of approximately 70% to 80% in the net profit attributable to the shareholders of the parent for the six months ended 30 June 2015, as compared with that for the six months ended 30 June 2014.

When consolidating the financial results of KION Group AG into the consolidated financial statements of the company on 12 June 2014, a one-off gain of RMB 1,671 million, being the difference between the acquisition date fair value of the KION shares held by the group and the previous carrying amount of such KION shares, was recognised during the six months ended 30 June 2014. The absence of such investment income during the Reporting Period is expected to contribute to a drop of approximately 20% of the net profit attributable to the shareholders of the parent for the Reporting Period, compared with that for the six months ended 30 June 2014. In addition, impacted by the downturn of the macro-economy and the heavy-truck industry as a whole, the sales of the company's main products suffered a drop during the Reporting Period, which is in turn expected to result in a decline of approximately 50% to 60% in the net profit attributable to the shareholders of the parent for the Reporting Period, as compared with that for the six months ended 30 June 2014.
