Zoomlion Heavy Industry Science and Technology Co., Ltd. provided earnings guidance for the year ending December 31, 2015. For the period, the company expects a decrease in net profit attributable to the equity shareholders of the company of 80% to 90% compared to the corresponding period of last year reported profit of RMB 594,068,200 and the company also expects basic earnings per share of RMB 0.0065 to RMB 0.0130 against RMB 0.08 reported in the previous year. The reasons for estimated decrease in the results are: during the reporting period, the middle exchange rates for RMB to US dollar and other currencies experienced significant changes as a result of the reform of the RMB exchange rate quotation regime, which also affected the profit of the company for the year.

As affected by the continuous slowdown in the growth of fixed assets investment of the State, especially the slowdown in the growth of real estate investment, the demand in the construction machinery market continued to be weak which represented a relatively substantial persistent impact on the overall sales revenue and net profit of the company. With a view to control risks and achieve quality operation, the company continued to implement a stringent sales policy which also affected the sales revenue and net profit to a certain extent.
