Weichai Power Co., Ltd. provided earnings guidance for the three months ended 31 March 2017. Based on a preliminary review of the consolidated management accounts of the company, the Group is expected to record an increase of approximately 140% to 170% in the net profit attributable to the shareholders of the parent for the three months ended 31 March 2017, as compared with that for the three months ended 31 March 2016. Such increase in the net profit attributable to the shareholders of the parent was mainly due to an increase in the sales of the Company's main products for the three months ended 31 March 2017, which, in turn, was attributable to an improvement in the macro-economic conditions and the heavy-truck industry as a whole.
