What inspired Weichai Power's high growth
Weichai Power's 2007 annual report has recently made a strong impression on the market, showcasing impressive financial performance. The company reported an annual basic earnings per share (EPS) of 4.42 yuan, which stands out as one of the highest in the industry. This figure reflects the company's robust profitability and solid financial foundation.
The report highlights significant growth across multiple key metrics. In 2007, Weichai Power generated a main business revenue of 29.3 billion yuan, representing a year-on-year increase of 313%. Total profit reached 3.28 billion yuan, with a net profit of 2 billion yuan, up 173% compared to the previous year. The EPS rose by 96% to 4.42 yuan, while the net assets per share stood at 12.26 yuan. Additionally, the return on net assets (after deduction) was as high as 32.3%, placing the company at the top of its industry.
As a traditional machinery company, Weichai Power’s rapid growth raises questions about the driving forces behind such strong performance. A major factor lies in the company’s successful industrial integration, which has significantly elevated its industry standing. Following the acquisition of Weichai Power Co., Ltd. on April 30, 2006, the company built the most comprehensive and resource-rich industrial chain in China’s automotive sector. It now covers three core segments: powertrain, vehicle, and auto parts. This vertical integration allowed Weichai to leverage its powertrain expertise, further strengthening its competitive edge in 2007.
In that year, Weichai Power sold 244,886 engines, a 67.9% increase from 2006. Among these, 151,376 were heavy-duty engines, up 88.1%, and 85,073 were used for construction machinery, rising 43.7%. Transmission sales reached 430,183 units, a jump of 86.1%. Meanwhile, the company sold 60,020 heavy trucks in Shaanxi, reflecting a 96.5% increase, marking the second consecutive year of double-digit growth. These figures far exceed the industry averages of 58.6% for heavy-duty vehicles and 31% for construction machinery.
Weichai Power also boasts a strong portfolio of branded products, including China’s top engine, transmission, and heavy-duty axle brands. These products enjoy a significant market advantage and strong brand recognition. The integration of these high-end resources has not only elevated the company’s product quality but also enhanced its market positioning.
In addition to internal strengths, Weichai Power has cultivated a harmonious market structure through strategic partnerships. The company has formed alliances with R&D institutions, sales customers, and key component suppliers, promoting innovation and collaboration across the supply chain. This approach has driven technological advancement, expanded market reach, and strengthened brand value.
Weichai Power established the Weichai Power Products R&D Community in 2006, bringing together 32 leading component suppliers to focus on engine and part development. It also partnered with Bosch of Germany to co-develop high-power, high-speed diesel fuel injection systems. This collaboration enabled Weichai to access global innovation and advance toward high-end technology, aiming to capture the EU III and higher standard engine markets.
On the customer side, Weichai has signed strategic agreements with major players in the heavy truck and loader industries. Its broad and stable customer base reinforces its leadership in the heavy truck and large construction machinery markets.
In terms of R&D, Weichai has partnered with world-renowned engine research institutions to jointly develop cutting-edge technologies and market-leading products. It has also set up an R&D center in Europe and invested heavily in research and development. The successful launch of the Lanqingguo III and China IV engines demonstrates the company’s strong R&D capabilities and forward-thinking approach based on international technology standards.
Overall, Weichai Power's 2007 performance reflects a combination of strategic integration, strong market positioning, and continuous innovation. These factors have positioned the company as a leader in the automotive industry, with sustained growth and long-term potential.
Sodium Tripolyphosphate, Na5P3O10, Molecular weight 367.86, white powder; Melting point 622 °C. free soluble in water, aqueous solution appears ACID. It has got salient chelating capacity to metal ions of Ca and Mg etc. and can soften hard water to make suspension into solution, alkalinity, without causticity. It is an inorganic compound with formula Na5P3O10, is the sodium salt of the polyphosphate penta-anion, which is the conjugate base of triphosphoric acid.Sodium tripolyphosphate is produced by heating stoichiometric mixture of disodium phosphate, Na2HPO4, and monosodium phosphate, NaH2PO4, under carefully controlled conditions.
It has different bulk density, i.e. low density 0.35-0.6g/cm 3 , medium density 0.6-0.8g/cm3 and high density 0.8-1.0g/cm3. This product has two crystalline forms, namely phase I (high temperature phase) and phase II (low temperature phase). The chemical properties of the two phases are the same, and the difference between them lies in the thermostability, hygroscopicity, solubility and hydration heat when dissolving.
It can be used as one of the main auxiliaries for synthetic Detergent, synergist for soap; water softener, tanning agent for leather making, auxiliary for dyeing; As an effective dispersion agent for suspensions of coatings, kaolin, magnesium oxide, calcium carbonate and drilling mud etc.
As an oil contamination resistance agent in paper production; As in foodstuff industry it is used as quality improver in the process of canned food, fruit juice drinks, foodstuffs from milk or soybeans. It may tender the meat in canned ham and soften the skin of horse bean in canned horse bean. It may also serves as a softener or densifier in foodstuff industry.
