1 Equity Research Auto Mar 28, 218 China Auto Sector Manageable impact from reduction in import tariffs on domestic auto market Chongjing Deng SFC CE No. BEY With contribution from the GF A-Share research team. GF Securities (Hong Kong) Brokerage Limited 29-3/F, Li Po Chun Chambers 189 Des Voeux Road Central Hong Kong Consensus reached between China and the US on China gradually lowering auto tariffs On Nov 9, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that a consensus had been reached between China and the US, with China agreeing to gradually reduce auto tariffs. In June this year, China will begin a pilot scheme aiming to relax restrictions on foreign ownership of new energy and special use vehicle businesses in free trade zones. Meanwhile, Ford Motor (F US) and General Motor (GM US) have obtained Chinese import trade orders, and Foton Motor (6166 CH) and TDG signed an agreement to develop intelligent public transportation systems. In 216, the US trade deficit with China reached US$347bn, accounting for 47.3% of its total deficit. The US autos & auto components industry had a large trade deficit, reaching US$199.8bn in 216, accounting for 26.6% of the total. For China s auto export market, 8M17 vehicle export volume totaled just 65k, accounting for 3.7% of domestic vehicle sales volume, of which only 34k units were exported to the US. Comparisons of auto import tariff rates across the world Imported cars to China will be levied with custom duty, a consumption tax and VAT. Custom duties are 25% for vehicles, and 1 for auto components. Consumption tax rates vary from 1%-4 based on engine displacement. The VAT rate is 17%. During 8M17, the proportion of imported PVs with engine displacements of 1.5L-2.L, 2.L-2.5L, and 2.5L-3.L was 27.6%, 29.6%, 28.3% respectively, with corresponding consumption tax rates of 5%, 9% and 12%. Based on the above figures, we estimate that China s aggregate auto import tax rates were 53.9%, 6.7% and 66.2%, substantially higher than those in the US (25%), Germany (26.2%) and Japan (5%). China s domestic passenger vehicles are also levied with consumption tax and VAT, with the same rules as imported vehicles. As for domestic PVs, vehicles with engine displacements of L account for the largest proportion, and have a corresponding consumption tax rate of 3%. Based on the above figures, we estimate an aggregate tax rate for domestically produced vehicles of 2. Manageable impact from reduction in import tariffs on domestic auto market From a volume perspective, the size of China s auto import market is relatively small compared to the size of the domestic auto market. If import tariffs decline, there will be a manageable overall impact on China s auto market. According to the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM), China s vehicle imports totaled 87k units during 8M17, still relatively low compared with domestic auto sales volume. Among China s imported vehicles, 19.8% were from the US. The average price of imported passenger cars in China (excluding tax) is about US$4k, or around Rmb4k with an aggregate tax rate of 53.9%. With reference to China's existing tariff levels for South Korea, Asia-Pacific (2), and Australia (1) in free trade areas, if the import tariff rate is reduced by 5-1pp to 15-2, with a consumption tax of 5%, the aggregate tax rate for auto imports will fall to 35.5%-41.6%, and the average import price of vehicles will decline to Rmb365k-382k. A reduction in import tariff would narrow the price gap between imported vehicles and highend joint venture brands. Consumers with strong purchasing power may be more inclined to purchase good quality imported brands. Risks Economic growth falls short of expectations; weaker-than-expected policies.

The Chinese version shall prevail in the event of any discrepancy between the two versions.
