We have dedicated ourselves to becoming China's leading auto mobility provider and our results further strengthened and extended our leadership position in China's car rental market. Our solid growth momentum was also propelled by increasing auto mobility needs. Starting from the beginning of the year, our collaboration with UCAR allowed us to capture the growth opportunities in the fast-growing mobile-enabled chauffeured car service market in China. We have optimized our corporate structure by establishing two independent business and functional platforms, with one focusing on technology-driven fleet management and financial services and the other on O2O self-drive car rental and car sharing services. We are always committed to strengthening our technology capabilities, enhancing customer experience and increasing operating efficiency."
Mr. Wilson Li, the CFO of CAR, added, "For the first half of 2015, we are delighted to deliver robust financial and operational performance, which was mainly driven by the strong performance of our short-term rental business and the commencement of our collaboration with UCAR. Our profit margin continued to expand due to further optimized business mix, operational leverage, and increasing operating efficiency. The UCAR collaboration has brought us a large volume of committed long-term revenues, extensive business synergies between chauffeured services and car rental, extra license plate resources, increasing fleet efficiency and enhanced operating leverage. We have successfully diversified our funding sources and optimized our funding structure to support sustainable business growth, while maintaining a prudent financial policy to ensure balanced leverage ratios and credit metrics."
