RTHK Radio 1 Cantonese Shenzhen 13d13d Impact 5

BYD reported an annual revenue decline of nearly 27 percent, falling to 41.7 billion yuan. Chinese car manufacturer BYD reported a sharp drop in earnings as consumers tightened spending. The company still recorded approximately 600 million dollars in earnings. The report was provided by NPR. Chinese automaker BYD reported earnings of approximately $600 million for the recent period. This figure represents less than half of the earnings reported during the same period the previous year. The decline is attributed to Chinese consumers purchasing fewer vehicles overall. BYD sold just over 700,000 new energy vehicles during the first three months of the year. The company's short-term borrowings increased by more than 70 percent to under US$10 billion by the end of March. BYD stated it is shifting focus toward higher margin premium pricing amid increasing domestic competition.
