  • [Interpreted] Despite ongoing stimulus policies from both central and local authorities used car consumption, consumer confidence stayed low in the first half of 2023. Moreover, the intense price war in China's auto market disrupted the pricing structure of the automotive industry, creating a widespread sense of caution.

    【解讀】儘管中央和地方持續出台二手車消費刺激政策,但2023年上半年消費者信心仍處於低位。此外,中國汽車市場激烈的價格戰擾亂了汽車行業的價格結構,引發了廣泛的市場競爭。謹慎的感覺。

  • [Interpreted] In response to the market trends, our focus throughout Q2 of 2023 has been to enhance our service capabilities across our platform. This was achieved by gaining a deep understanding of dealer demand and continuously refining our resource allocation along the automotive value chain. Consequently, we were able to make further strides in diversifying revenue streams anchored in automotive transactions, capitalizing on the potential of our business model. In Q2, the company reported total revenues of CNY 680 million, representing a robust year-on-year increase of 134%. Of these revenues from car trading transactions accounted for CNY 560 million, making a significant year-on-year growth of 157% and a contribution of 83% of our overall revenue.

    【解讀】針對市場趨勢,我們2023年第二季的重點在於增強我們整個平台的服務能力。這是透過深入了解經銷商需求並不斷完善我們在汽車價值鏈上的資源配置來實現的。因此,我們能夠在以汽車交易為基礎的收入來源多元化方面取得進一步進展,充分利用我們業務模式的潛力。第二季度,公司總營收為6.8億元人民幣,較去年同期強勁成長134%。其中汽車交易收入達5.6億元,較去年大幅成長157%,佔整體營收的83%。

  • Moreover, by the end of June 2023, the total outstanding balance of financing transactions we facilitated decreased from CNY 20.7 billion as of March 31, 2023 to CNY 16.6 billion, thereby further mitigating our risk exposure. The M1+ and M3+ overdue ratios also saw a decrease from 2.33% and 1.29% as of March 31, 2023 to 2.12% and 1.09%, respectively.

    此外,截至2023年6月末,我們促成的融資交易未償餘額總額從2023年3月31日的207億元減少至166億元人民幣,進一步降低了我們的風險敞口。 M1+和M3+逾期比率也分別從截至2023年3月31日的2.33%和1.29%下降至2.12%和1.09%。

Dealers only need to input car buyer information, pay the down payment and the deposit and can enjoy a seamless one-stop service from ordering to loan applications and administration. These solutions help dealers reduce inventory-related cash flow process due to asset turnover ratio and lower operating costs.

To this end, we started a pilot cross-region delivery program for new car services in some parts of China in the second quarter, and it was very successful. As we move forward, we will understand dealer's diverse needs better and use our digital infrastructure to support their full sales cycle with digital services from manufacturing to sales, improving efficiency at every step. Through these initiatives, we will boost dealer's efficiency and loyalty and help the auto industry grow in the long term.

  • [Interpreted] Regarding our outlook for the new car market, new car sales increased in May and June, but decreased by 6.3% month-on-month and 2.3% year-on-year in July, according to CTCA data with more sales promotions by vehicle manufacturers and possible shop price swings, especially in the weak consumption environment. Our focus in the next stage of the new car trading business will be on avoiding potential vehicle inventory risk, and we will control our transaction scales more carefully.

    【解讀】對於新車市場的展望,CTCA數據顯示,5、6月份新車銷量有所增長,但7月份環比下降6.3%,年比下降2.3%,促銷力度加大受汽車製造商和可能的商店價格波動的影響,特別是在消費疲軟的環境下。下一階段新車交易業務的重點將是規避潛在的車輛庫存風險,並更謹慎地控制交易規模。

  • (foreign language) As a stimulus-led policies, we see posts like the consumption have been gradually released since August. So could management comment on the auto market in the second half of the year?

    (外文)作為刺激主導的政策,我們看到像消費這樣的貼文從8月開始就逐漸釋放出來。那麼管理階層能否對下半年的汽車市場做出評論呢?

  • [Interpreted] First of all, thank you for your question. As the stimulus policies are being implemented, we do see an effect on the car sales and also on the car market as a whole. However, if you look at the July numbers, the retail sales volume of passenger vehicles in July was about 1.77 million, decreasing by 6.3% quarter-over-quarter and down 2.3% year-on-year according to data from China Passenger Car Association, CPCA. And this indicates that the higher than expected livery figures were actually mainly due to order backlogs in the previous periods. Also the base for comparison, i.e., the numbers of the same period last year was relatively high. So the auto market overall sales volume may decline actually in the second half of the year.

    [解讀]首先謝謝你的提問。隨著刺激政策的實施,我們確實看到了對汽車銷售以及整個汽車市場的影響。但如果看7月的數據,中國乘用車協會數據顯示,7月乘用車零售量約為177萬輛,環比下降6.3%,同比下降2.3%。 ,CPCA。這表明,高於預期的塗裝數據實際上主要是由於前期訂單積壓所致。還有比較的基數,即去年同期的數字比較高。所以下半年車市整體銷售實際上可能會下滑。

    好的。現在是一個後續問題。 (外語)現在,讓我試著翻譯一下。就像中國汽車製造商實際上從今年開始進入海外市場一樣,不知道管理層是否可以與我們分享,例如該公司是否也有計劃開拓全球市場?

And as we are not auto manufacturer and do not control the production process, the car export business model and potential profitability still needs to be explored. Thank you.

    【解讀】對於這個問題,其實我們對出海的計畫持積極謹慎的態度,各業務部門也正在啟動可行性研究。而且由於我們不是汽車製造商,不控制生產過程,汽車出口的商業模式和潛在的獲利能力仍然需要探索。謝謝。

  • [Interpreted] I have 2 questions. The first question is on the macro environment. As we understand that on August 9, the U.S. President Joe Biden signed the executive order that will prohibit some new U.S. investments in China in sensitive technologies. So as a new -- company listed on New York Stock Exchange, will Cango be affected by this order? And how will the company cope with it? That's the first question. And the second question is related to your company's business. So could you share with us more information on the gross margin of both the new car and used car business?

    [解釋]我有2個問題。第一個問題是關於宏觀環境。據了解,8月9日,美國總統拜登簽署行政命令,禁止美國在中國進行一些新的敏感技術投資。那麼,作為一家在紐交所上市的新公司,Cango 會受到這項命令的影響嗎?公司將如何因應?這是第一個問題。第二個問題與你們公司的業務有關。那麼您能否與我們分享更多有關新車和二手車業務毛利率的資訊?

  • [Interpreted] Okay. So on your first question on the executive order, we have seen the order and operated coverage and news as China's leading automotive transaction service platform on services are not perfected by the orders sector. Moreover, the order exempt publicly traded securities and some other investments, and we will definitely follow the situation closely.

    [解釋]好的。所以關於你關於行政命令的第一個問題,我們看到了命令和運營的報導和新聞,因為中國領先的汽車交易服務平台在服務上還沒有通過命令部門完善。而且,該命令豁免了公開交易證券和其他一些投資,我們一定會密切關注事態發展。

  • [Interpreted] On your second question, the gross margin of new car transactions is generally about 1%. It really depends on the car model with some models reaching 2%. Our business model involves centralized purchasing cars from OEMs and then selling them to small- and medium-sized dealers. As we do not control the production process, our gross margin on new car transactions is relatively low. Since our peers maintain a similar gross margin level, we believe these gross margin will remain stable for a while.

    【解讀】關於你的第二個問題,新車交易的毛利率一般在1%左右。這實際上取決於車型,有些車型達到2%。我們的商業模式是從整車廠集中購買汽車,然後銷售給中小型經銷商。由於我們不控制生產過程,我們的新車交易毛利率相對較低。由於我們的同行保持相似的毛利率水平,我們相信這些毛利率將在一段時間內保持穩定。

  • [Interpreted] And on used cars, the price of used cars really depends on the condition of the cars, the gross profit for each car can vary from RMB 1,000 to RMB 2,000. That's all from me. Thank you.

    【解讀】而對二手車來說,二手車的價格其實取決於車況,每輛車的毛利可以從1,000元到2,000元不等。這就是我的全部。謝謝。
