Autonomy: the supply chain restricts the release of production and marketing, and the company’s sales volume is under pressure in the short term. In February, the sales volume of Changan Chinese brand cars was 108700, with a year-on-year ratio of – 22.1% / month on month ratio of – 51.9%, of which the sales volume of passenger cars was 69900, with a year-on-year ratio of – 32.7% / month on month ratio of – 55.9%. The overall performance was weaker than that of the industry (the sales volume of narrow passenger cars in China in February was + 26.9% / month on month ratio of – 32.6%). By brand: 1) the sales volume of cs75 / cs55 series was 136 / 5200 units, with a year-on-year increase of – 58.4% / – 49.4%. The order of the second generation cs75 plus exceeded 24000 units in one month; 2) Uni series sold 10000 vehicles, with a year-on-year increase of + 42.5%. Uni-k IDD was officially launched in March; Uni-v, a 100000 class sedan, is expected to be launched in March. As of February 22, the cumulative orders have exceeded 16000.

The weak sales performance is mainly affected by the Spring Festival holiday and the chip shortage of upstream supply chain enterprises such as Bosch and Schneider. At present, the company has set up a dedicated team to control chips, actively communicate with suppliers and seek domestic substitutes for chips. We expect the supply of the industrial chain to gradually improve in March. At present, the company has nearly 100000 orders on hand, and the subsequent recovery of chips is expected to drive up sales.
