1. Business review for the reporting period
In 2016, the global economy remained in deep change which varied markedly among different regions. Profound changes also happened with trade rules, production modes, industrial layout, international division of labor, currency systems, etc. China steadily pushed forward its supply-side structural reform and transformation and deepened its pilot free trade zone reform. Its economic growth further slowed down to6.7%, with the total import and export value down by0.9% from last year. With continuously sluggish global shipping, the domestic port industry also grew at a slow pace. Thecountry’s coastal ports above the designated size registered a cargo throughput of 8.08 billion metric tons, representing3.0% growth from last year, and a container throughput of 190 million TEU, up3.4% from the year earlier. Under such circumstances, main production and operation indicators of the Company for the reporting period all registered increase. To be specific, the Company achieved a cargo throughput of 67.8 million metric tons, a year-on-year increase of1.8%, which generated operating revenues of RMB1.91 billion, up1.7% from last year; total profits of RMB0.77 billion, up5.9% on a year-on-year basis; and net profits attributable to the Company (excluding subsidiaries) of RMB0.53 billion, representing a0.9% growth from the year earlier.
(1) Container handling business
Growth in the global container capacity significantly slowed down, but overcapacitywasn’t substantively improved. With lower earnings for shipping enterprises, the bankrupt of Hanjin Shipping, the
7th
largest shipping company in the world shocked the shipping industry. The shipping alliances were on the verge of a reshuffle due to series of merging and reorganization events in the industry. In the reporting period, container throughput of main ports in South China declined by1.2% year on year, of which the data of Shenzhen port declined by1.0%. We strengthened business expansion, closely followed up the route adjustment caused by the alliance reshuffle, energetically explored qualified routes, leading to growth in both local and transit container handling. We handled 5.035 million TEU of containers, up5.8% on a year-on-year basis, accounting for21% of the Shenzhen port market, 1 percentage point higher than the same period of last year.
(2) Bulk cargo handling business
Due to thegovernment’s structural reform of the supply front, as well as the market demand,China’s imports of grain and fertilizer both decreased sharply. We adopted a business strategy of working on both domestic and foreign trade. As a result, the considerable growth in the domestic grain and feedstuff throughput made up for the drop in the foreign counterpart, and our total grain and feedstuff throughput is still at a leading position in the Pearl River Delta. Meanwhile, despite a weak demand, we are still a leader in terms of fertilizer throughput, with the compound fertilizer imports handled accounting for around50% ofChina’s market. At the same time, we strengthened business expansion. Breakthroughs have been made in new business and the comprehensive logistics services based on the ports have continued to develop, making clients more dependent on us. In the reporting period, we achieved a bulk cargo throughput of 18.822 million tons, down2.4% from the year earlier.
The Abstract of the 2016 Annual Report of Shenzhen Chiwan Wharf Holdings Limited (3) Supporting services and investment management
Our supporting services of tow truck, tugboat, customs clearance, barge and the like went on smoothly, and gained goods. Meanwhile, our main investees such as China Overseas Harbour Affairs (Laizhou) Co., Ltd., and China Merchants Holdings (International) Information Technology Co., Ltd. achieved greatly improved business results, producing much higher returns on our investments from a year earlier.
Business highlights of the Company for the past three years are set out as follows:
|||||
|-|-|-|-|
|Main business indicator|2016|2015|2014|
|Total throughput (thousand tons)|67,800|66,618|63,002|
|Among which:Container throughput (thousand TEU)|5,035|4,760|4,958|
|Bulk cargo throughput (thousand tons)|18,822|19,283|15,139|
|Hours charged for tow trucks (thousand hours)|1,165|1,129|1,170|
|Hours charged for tugboats (hour)|32,530|34,098|28,642|

 In the reporting period, we continued to push forward lean management and innovation work, and emphasized on improving quality and efficiency. We adapted to the management requirements in new situations by sorting and optimizing management process, as well as revising and perfecting systems. We combined theory training with work practice, and strengthened the guiding function of data analysis. Through making use of interest technologies, we carried forward the fusion of production network, and theCompany’s informationization. We encouraged technique and process reform, and new technology application, focused on solving and improving issues in the front line of production, and accomplished multiple projects of technical innovation. We combined the main wharf business with supporting businesses, arranged the participation in multiple logistics links, explored and extended the logistics chain service in ports. We developed special management and control on key costs, reached the annual target on management and control, and realized the increase of operating profits. We also expanded financing channels for a better debt structure and reduced the loans to avoid exchange rate risk, which helped cut down our finance costs in a significant way.
2. Outlook of theCompany’s future development
(1) Outlook and trends of the industry
2017 is expected to continue to see a complicated and serious situation in the global economy as well as a slow development pace in global shipping, whichwouldn’t be changed in a short term. The economy of traditional industry will be in the passage of reducing excess production capacity in a long term. The fast growth of port throughput slowed down to intermediate, even unit-digit speed, representing a situation where the net growth of throughput and annual average growth speed both declined. The development ofChina’s port industry will transfer from obtaining benefits by relying on the bonus brought by economy development to obtaining benefits by improving quality and efficiency, as well as building high-end value chain by itself. The excess production capacity will intensify regional competitions, making mutual benefit and win-win result caused by leveraging resource integration becomes the general trend.
In terms of container handling, container throughput in the Pearl River Delta is expected to remain stable. Larger ships and shipping alliances have made clients more centralized. The adjustment of regional industry layout, as well as the rapid development of cross-border E-commerce put forward higher requirements to container ports. The risk of business fluctuation will aggravate. The industry position and business scale of the Company, the regional hub port, will keep steady.
As for bulk cargo handling, regional demand for grain and feedstuff keeps growing, and the demand for fertilizer keeps stable. In future, with the improvement of resource capability of bulk cargo handling, the development of bonded and transit businesses, and the cultivation of new supply of good and new business forms, the overall market competitiveness will continuously get enhanced. Throughput of our bulk cargo handling business will expectedly keep stable growing, constantly occupying the leading position in regional market.
