Sinotruk (Hong Kong) Limited provided consolidated earnings guidance for the year ended December 31, 2016. The board of directors of company inform shareholders of the company and potential investors that based on a preliminary assessment of the unaudited consolidated management accounts of the group for the year ended 31 December 2016, it is anticipated that the consolidated profit attributable to owners of the company for the year ended 31 December 2016 may record a substantial increase of over 100% as compared to that for the corresponding period in 2015. Such increase is mainly due to the increase in revenue and gross profit of the group as the sales volume of trucks increased and the reduction of the overall borrowing scale by the group and, hence, the decrease in interest expenses.
