These were mainly attributable to the increase in the Company's revenue due to the change of sales structure of the Company as a result of the
increase in the proportion of sales of SUV with higher selling price and gross profit, in particular the increase in the sales of H6, despite the slight decrease in overall sales of the Company as compared to the corresponding period of the year 2013. The decrease in profit for the year 2014 as compared with the year 2013 was also attributable to the significant increase in the investment in research and development.
