Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
EXPLANATORY NOTE
China Yuchai International Limited (the Company) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 20-F/A to its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 8, 2006, to reflect the restatement of its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005. The Companys consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005 have been restated to reflect certain adjustments to correct accounting errors mainly at the Companys majority-owned subsidiary, Guangxi Yuchai Machinery Company Limited, or Yuchai, for such period. See Note 2A to the consolidated financial statements of the Company for a complete description and quantification of these adjustments and their impact on the Companys 2005 consolidated financial statements.
The most significant adjustment is to correct accounting errors for the understatement of accounts payable of Rmb 167.8 million (approximately US$20.8 million) by Yuchai at December 31, 2005, which we refer to in this Form 20-F/A as the Rmb 167.8 million Adjustment. A review of the understatement of accounts payable by Yuchai was conducted by the Companys Audit Committee, assisted by independent counsel and independent forensic consultants. As a result of this process, the Companys management and the Audit Committee identified errors in Yuchais manual adjustments of its accounts payable in its attempts to reconcile with Yuchais then-new accounting systems. In connection with their review, the Audit Committee found no evidence of fraud or intentional wrongdoing by any employee of the Company or Yuchai or any plan to intentionally inflate the profits by the management of Yuchai. The Rmb 167.8 million Adjustment has resulted in a decrease in the previously reported consolidated earnings before income taxes and minority interests of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2005 by approximately Rmb 122.7 million (US$15.2 million).
During the course of finalizing the Rmb 167.8 million Adjustment, the Companys management identified certain other accounting errors that were not previously known. The Companys management has decided to correct these other accounting errors as well as the previously known immaterial uncorrected audit adjustments pertaining to its 2005 consolidated financial statements. Appropriate correcting adjustments have been made and are reflected in the restated 2005 consolidated financial statements of the Company. The net impact of these other adjustments and the effects on income taxes and minority interests for all correcting adjustments, including the Rmb 167.8 million Adjustment, is an increase in the Companys previously reported consolidated net income for the year ended December 31, 2005 by approximately Rmb 21.9 million (US$2.7 million).
As a result of the above adjustments, the Companys consolidated financial results have been restated to report a net loss of Rmb 32.3 million (US$4.0 million) instead of the previously reported net income of Rmb 68.5 million (US$8.5 million).
The Company has also reclassified certain items in its consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005 as described in Note 2A. These reclassifications did not have any impact on the Companys consolidated net loss, as restated, for the year ended December 31, 2005.
In connection with the restatement of the 2005 consolidated financial statements, the Company has identified certain material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting for the period covered by this Form 20-F/A. See Item 15. Controls and Procedures.

All references to Items that are included in the original Form 20-F but not included herein are to such Items as included in the original filing.
This Form 20-F/A amends and restates the following Items. While the following Items have been reproduced in full as required by Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, no changes have been made to such Items except to reflect the restatement:

Translation of amounts from Renminbi to U.S. dollars has been made at the rate of Rmb 8.0702 = US$1.00, the rate quoted by the Peoples Bank of China at the close of business on December 30, 2005. No representation is made that the Renminbi amounts could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. dollars at that rate or at any other rate prevailing on December 30, 2005 or any other date. The Renminbi has appreciated against the U.S. dollar since December 30, 2005. The rate quoted by the Peoples Bank of China at the close of business on May 15, 2008 was Rmb 7.0000 = US$1.00. Since the previously filed Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2005 included translation of amounts from Renminbi to U.S. dollars at the rate of Rmb 8.0702 = US$1.00, the Company has included translation of amounts from Renminbi to U.S. dollars in this filing at the same rate so as to provide comparable information.

ITEM 3. KEY INFORMATION.
Selected Financial Data
The selected financial information set forth below should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects and the Companys audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in this Annual Report. The consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in conformity with US GAAP.
The Companys main operating asset is its 76.4% ownership interest in Yuchai. As a result, the Companys financial condition and results of operations depend primarily upon Yuchais financial condition and results of operations, and the implementation of the Reorganization Agreement with respect to the restructuring of the Companys investment in Yuchai, described elsewhere herein (see Item 4. Information on the Company Recent Developments and Item 8. Financial Information Legal Proceedings).
On February 7, 2005, the board of directors of the Company announced its approval of the implementation of a business expansion and diversification plan by the Company. Pursuant to this plan, the Company has looked for new business opportunities to seek to reduce its financial dependence on Yuchai, which has historically been the Companys main operating asset.
In March 2005, the Company completed an acquisition of approximately 14.99% of TCL, a China-focused electronics distribution company, for approximately S$30.9 million (approximately $18.9 million, based on an exchange rate of S$1.637 to US$1.00). The Company subsequently increased its minority stake in TCL, and as of December 31, 2005 the Companys shareholding in TCL was 15.99%. The Company has also recently invested in LKN, a company primarily engaged in the business of investment holding and hospitality-related businesses, pursuant to the Companys business expansion and diversification plan.
In February 2006, the Company acquired debt and equity in LKN for an aggregate consideration of approximately S$131.6 million (approximately $81.2 million, based on an exchange rate of S$1.62 to US$1.00), divided into 191,413,465 ordinary shares representing approximately 29.13% of the total number of ordinary shares in issue; 123,010,555 redeemable convertible preference shares in the capital of LKN; and approximately S$129.4 million (approximately US$79.9 million, based on an exchange rate of S$1.62 to US$1.00) in principal amount of outstanding secured non-convertible bonds issued by LKN. For further information on the TCL and LKN minority investments, see Item 4. Information on the Company History and Development Minority Investments.

The translation of amounts from Renminbi to U.S. dollars is solely for the convenience of the reader. Translation of amounts from Renminbi to U.S. dollars has been made at the rate of Rmb 8.0702 = US$1.00, the rate quoted by the Peoples Bank of China at the close of business on December 30, 2005. No representation is made that the Renminbi amounts could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. dollars at that rate or at any other rate prevailing on December 30, 2005 or any other date. The Renminbi has appreciated against the U.S. dollar since December 30, 2005. The rate quoted by the Peoples Bank of China at the close of business on May 15, 2008 was Rmb 7.0000 = US$1.00. Since the previously filed Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2005 included translation of amounts from Renminbi to U.S. dollars at the rate of Rmb 8.0702 = US$1.00, the Company has included translation of amounts from Renminbi to U.S. dollars in this filing at the same rate so as to provide comparable information. |
ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS.
Restatement Of Previously Issued 2005 Consolidated Financial Statements
As described in Note 2A to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this filing, the Company has restated its previously issued consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005. See Note 2A for more detailed information. The information in this discussion and analysis reflects this restatement, but is not otherwise updated.
The Companys 2005 Consolidated Financial Statements have been restated to reflect the following correcting adjustments:
Accounts Payable
At the time of preparing the financial statements of Yuchai for 2005, Yuchai management erroneously recorded adjustments in the amount of Rmb 167.8 million to the general ledger to reduce the amounts payable for goods received, but for which invoices were not yet received (referred to as GRIR). The correcting adjustments have now been made with the following impact on the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005:
| Trade accounts payable as of December 31, 2005 has been increased by Rmb 167.8 million (US$20.8 million), |
| Inventories, net as of December 31, 2005 has been increased by Rmb 45.1 million (US$5.6 million), and |
| Cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2005 has been increased by Rmb 122.7 million (US$15.2 million). |
Other Adjustments
During the course of finalizing the Rmb 167.8 million Adjustment, the Companys management identified certain other accounting errors that were not previously known. The Companys management has decided to correct these other accounting errors as well as the previously known immaterial uncorrected audit adjustments
5
Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
pertaining to its 2005 consolidated financial statements. Appropriate correcting adjustments have been made and are reflected in the restated 2005 consolidated financial statements of the Company. The net impact of these other adjustments and the effects on income taxes and minority interests for all correcting adjustments, including the Rmb 167.8 million Adjustment, is an increase in the Companys previously reported consolidated net income for the year ended December 31, 2005 by approximately Rmb 21.9 million (US$2.7 million).
1. | Taxes. As a result of an audit by the local tax authority, it was determined that Yuchai had incorrectly calculated its VAT liability and that an additional Rmb 8.3 million of VAT was owed by Yuchai. It was also determined that Yuchai had under-provided for its income tax recoverable by Rmb 2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. The correcting adjustments have been made to the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005. |
2. | Provision for bonuses. In 2005, Yuchai did not reach its stated targets to trigger the payment of bonuses. However, even though stated bonus targets had not been reached, Yuchai recognized accrued bonuses in its previously issued financial statements. Subsequently, the Compensation Committee approved bonus amounts that were lower than the previously recognized amounts. Accordingly, the excess bonus in the amount of Rmb 6.2 million that Yuchai had recognized has now been reversed. In addition, it was determined that there was an over-payment of bonuses in the amount of Rmb 3.7 million. This amount represents the amount to be recovered from the recipients of the bonuses, of which Rmb 3.0 million has already been returned to the Company. The correcting adjustments have been made to the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005. |
3. | Depreciation of fixed assets. The Companys management discovered that certain fixed assets of Yuchai continued to be depreciated even though their net book values had been reduced to zero. This resulted in an over-depreciation of Rmb 6.6 million. This over-depreciation has been reversed to correct the error. The correcting adjustments have been made to the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005. |
4. | Volume discounts. Yuchai provides discounts to those customers who meet previously-agreed volumes and whose accounts receivable with Yuchai at the year-end meet certain criteria. The Companys management discovered that for some of Yuchais customers, discounts earned for 2005 in the amount of Rmb 12.7 million had not been recognized in Yuchais 2005 financial statements. The correcting adjustments have been made to the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005. |
5. | Impairment of fixed assets. The Companys management discovered that certain fixed assets of Yuchai were idle or other factors existed that suggested that the recovery of their respective carrying values may have been impaired. Upon further evaluation, it was determined that a provision for impairment of Rmb 4.9 million was required. The correcting adjustments have been made to the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005. |
In addition, with respect to certain fixed assets of Yuchai that continued to be held and used, the Companys management corrected the residual value and remaining useful life assumptions for such fixed assets. These assumptions have been updated effective January 1, 2005, which resulted in an additional depreciation expense of Rmb 6.5 million. The correcting adjustments have been made to the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005.
6. | Other Accounts Payable Adjustment for GRIR balance. Other adjustments have been made to the GRIR balance at December 31, 2005, which represents the amounts payable for goods received in 2005 but for which invoices had not been received at December 31, 2005, based on suppliers invoices that were subsequently received by the Company. The correcting adjustments have been made to the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005. This adjustment has resulted in an increase in the Companys previously reported consolidated earnings before income taxes and minority interests for 2005 by approximately Rmb 4.8 million. |
6
Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
7. | Previously Known Unadjusted Audit Adjustments. The Companys management has also decided to correct previously known immaterial uncorrected audit adjustments pertaining to the 2005 consolidated financial statements. The net impact of these adjustments is a decrease in the Companys previously reported consolidated earnings before income taxes and minority interests for the year ended December 31, 2005 by approximately Rmb 4.6 million. |
8. | Effect on Income Taxes and Minority Interests. As a result of the above corrections, including the Rmb 167.8 Adjustment, certain adjustments were made to reflect their impact on income taxes, which was Rmb 8.2 million (US$1 million) and minority interests, which was Rmb 30.8 million (US$3.8 million), in the Companys 2005 consolidated financial statements. |
Summary
As a result of all these adjustments, the Companys consolidated financial results have been restated to report a net loss of Rmb 32.3 million (US$4.0 million) instead of the previously reported net income of Rmb 68.5 million (US$8.5 million).
Overview
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in this Annual Report. The consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in conformity with US GAAP.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, the Companys main asset has been its 76.4% ownership interest in Yuchai. As a result, the Companys financial condition and results of operations have depended primarily upon Yuchais financial condition and results of operations. The Company acquired its initial 51.3% interest in Yuchai effective April 1, 1993, increased its interest to 71.4% in November 1994 through the China Everbright Purchase and then to 76.4% in December 1994 by purchasing additional Yuchai Shares with the net proceeds of its initial public offering. The Companys historical results of operations differ from those of Yuchai, primarily as a result of amortization of goodwill prior to 2002 which arose in connection with the three investments in Yuchais equity, additional operating expenses and the minority interest of other Yuchai shareholders in Yuchais income. In future financial periods, the Companys financial condition, results of operations, business and prospects may differ significantly from Yuchai, depending upon, among other things, the implementation of the Companys new business expansion and diversification plan and the consummation of the spin-off contemplated in the Reorganization Agreement (see Item 4. Information on the Company Recent Developments). For example, in March 2005, the Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary, VDL, acquired an approximate 14.99% interest in TCL, VDL further acquired another 1.00% interest of the total number of TCL Shares in issue. As a result, the Company held a 15.99% stake in TCL as of December 31, 2005. The Company accounts for its investment in TCL using the equity method and the Company has reflected its proportionate share of TCLs losses in its consolidated statement of income since March 2005.
The various austerity measures taken by the Chinese government over the last decade to regulate economic growth and control inflation have at times dampened demand for trucks in China. In particular, austerity measures that restricted access to credit and slowed the rate of fixed investment (including infrastructure development) adversely affected demand for, and production of, trucks and other commercial vehicles. Such market conditions, together with increased competition in the diesel engine market, resulted in various degrees of financial and marketing difficulties for diesel engine producers, including the Company. However, the Chinese government announced in 1998 a major initiative to boost consumer demand through investments in infrastructure projects, including the construction of highways and tollways, and also through increased availability of bank credit. As a result, demand for trucks and other commercial vehicles, and thus demand for diesel engines has been increasing annually since 1999 to 2004.
7
Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
Although demand for commercial vehicles in China declined by approximately 1.0% in 2005, the Companys net revenues in 2005 increased by 4.2% to Rmb 5,816.7 million (US$720.8 million) compared to Rmb 5,582.1 million in 2004. This increase was primarily a result of higher unit sales of the 4-Series light-duty diesel and industrial engines. The Company had a loss before minority interests of Rmb 35.2 million (US$4.4 million) in 2005 compared to income before minority interests of Rmb 648.7 million in 2004. The decrease in income before minority interests was primarily due to reduced gross margins, higher selling, general and administrative expenses, and compounded by the specific provision made of Rmb 203.0 million (US$25.1 million) for non-trade loans to a related party (see also Note 5 to the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements). Sales of the 6108 medium-duty and 6112 heavy-duty engines accounted for 13.9% and 13.5%, respectively, of the Companys net revenues in 2005. Sales of the 6L and 6M heavy-duty diesel engines accounted for 0.8% and 2.5%, respectively, of the Companys net revenues in 2005. Due mainly to the credit tightening by banks in China, there are more customers buying the light-duty diesel engines and industrial engines because the coverage selling price of these light-duty diesel and industrial engines are lower than the medium and heavy-duty engines.
In 2005, the Company continued its efforts to control production costs and operating expenses. However, a large portion of the Companys costs and expenses relate to fixed costs incurred in connection with the production of its diesel engines, which limits the Companys ability to significantly reduce its costs and expenses. The Companys cost of goods sold mainly includes cost of materials consumed, factory overhead, direct labor and depreciation. The Company analyzes its cost of goods sold based on its cost of manufacturing for each period. Cost of manufacturing for each period equals cost of goods sold for the period plus or minus the change in period end finished goods inventory. In 2005, cost of materials consumed accounted for approximately 84.4% of the cost of manufacturing. The Companys selling, general and administrative, or SG&A, expenses include advertising expenses, provision for doubtful accounts, salaries and wages, freight charges, sales commission expenses and a large number of smaller expenses.
The Company had effective income tax rates of 16.2% and 14.0% in 2003 and 2004, respectively. In 2005, the Company had income tax expense of Rmb 10.1 million (US$1.3 million) comprising current tax expense of Rmb 30.2 million (US$3.7 million), offset by a deferred tax credit of Rmb 20.1 million (US$2.5 million). Yuchai was subject to PRC income tax at a rate of 24.0% of its income determined in accordance with PRC GAAP in 1993 prior to the restructuring. After becoming a Sino-foreign joint stock company, it was exempt from PRC income tax in 1994 and 1995. Under current laws, Yuchai is subject to PRC income tax at a rate of 7.5% for each of the three years from 1996 to 1998 and a rate of 10.0% for each of the three years from 1999 to 2001. Since January 1, 2002, Yuchai is subject to tax at a rate of 15.0% so long as it continues to qualify as a foreign-invested enterprise eligible for tax reductions under PRC income tax law. In addition to the PRC income tax, Yuchai has been subject to value-added taxes on its sales since January 1, 1994. Dividends received by the Company from Yuchai can be remitted from China without any PRC taxation under current Chinese law. See Item 10. Additional Information Taxation Peoples Republic of China Taxation.
The Company commenced trial marketing of its 6112 heavy-duty engine in early 1999, and began commercial production of these engines during the second half of 1999. Due to the delay in commercial production of the 6112 engine until 1999, however, the Company was not able to benefit from the competitive advantages of an early entry into the domestic market for heavy-duty engines. Moreover, the market for heavy-duty diesel engines in China is relatively price sensitive. With increasing customer acceptance of the 6112 engine in late 2001 through 2003, the sales volume of the 6112 engine improved significantly. Yuchai intends to continue to manufacture its 6112 heavy-duty diesel engines although there has been a decline in unit sales in 2005 mainly due to changes in customers demand to light-duty diesel engines. In 2005, the sales volume of the 6112 engine was 14,788 units, which was lower than 24,073 units in 2004, due to shrinking demand arising from the Chinese governments measures to tighten the credit supply within the banking sector in China as part of its efforts to minimize overheating of the economy. This situation has led to Yuchais customers buying more of the
8
Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
cheaper light-duty diesel engines as compared to the more expensive heavy-duty diesel engines. There can be no assurance that Yuchai will be able to compete successfully in the heavy-duty diesel engine market in China with the existing producers (such as Weichei Power Co., Ltd.) or any new entrants.
The Companys future financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected as a result of Chinas admission into the WTO. See Item 3. Key Information Risk Factors Risks relating to Mainland China The admission of China into the WTO could lead to increased foreign competition. Currently, China is encouraging foreign investments into the motor vehicle engine manufacturing industry. However, the Company believes that the possible adverse impact of foreign competition as a result of China becoming a member of the WTO would likely be mitigated by a number of factors, including, (i) foreign diesel engines are not generally price competitive in the domestic China market, (ii) foreign producers do not have the sales and distribution network or service and parts center infrastructure of Chinese producers and (iii) while Chinas import tariffs on motor vehicle components may be lowered, China has indicated that it does not intend to eliminate such tariffs.
The Companys future financial condition and results of operations could also be adversely affected as a result of China macroeconomic policy changes recently announced by the Chinese government. The Chinese government has announced that it is considering additional measures in certain sectors to avoid overheating of the economy, including tightening bank lending policies and increases in bank interest rates. The market demand for diesel engines in China may be adversely affected by these measures, particularly if diesel engines are included in any specific economic sectoral caps or attempts to slow down sectoral lending. See Item 3. Key Information Risk Factors Risks relating to Mainland China Adverse changes in the economic policies of the Chinese government could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth of Mainland China, which could reduce the demand for our products and adversely affect our competitive position and Item 3. Key Information Risk Factors Risks relating to our company and our business The diesel engine business in China is dependent in large part on the performance of the Chinese economy, as well as Chinese government policy. As a result, our financial condition, results of operations, business and prospects could be adversely affected by slowdowns in the Chinese economy, as well as Chinese government policies that de-emphasize the use of diesel engines.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP require the Companys management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions regarding uncertainties that affect the reported amounts of the Companys assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. These judgments, assumptions and estimates are reflected in the Companys accounting policies, which are more fully described in Note 3 to the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements appearing elsewhere herein.
Certain of the Companys accounting policies are particularly important to the portrayal of the Companys financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant assumptions and estimates by the Companys management. The Company refers to these accounting policies as its critical accounting policies. The Companys management uses its historical experience and analyses, the terms of existing contracts, historical cost convention, industry trends, information provided by its agents and information available from other outside sources, as appropriate, when forming its assumptions and estimates. However, this task is inexact because the Companys management is making assumptions and providing estimates on matters that are inherently uncertain. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates under different assumptions and conditions.
9
Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
While the Company believes that all aspects of its financial statements should be studied and understood in assessing its current expected financial condition and results, the Company believes that the following critical accounting policies involve a higher degree of judgment and estimation and therefore warrant additional attention:
| Allowances for doubtful accounts; |
| Realization of the carrying value of inventories; |
| Product warranty obligations; |
| Realization of deferred tax assets; |
| Impairment of long-lived assets other than goodwill; |
| Provision for loss contingency for guarantee granted by YEGCL; and |
| Recoverability of carrying value of investment in TCL. |
Allowances for doubtful accounts
Allowance for doubtful accounts is managements best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Companys existing accounts receivable. The Company determines the allowance based on historical write-off experience by industry and national economic data. The Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts monthly. In 2005, the Company has examined the debtors ageing report and noted that there was a significant change in the amounts owing by one of its major customers, Dongfeng Group. For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Dongfeng Group accounted for about 28% of the trade debtors outstanding as compared to approximately 12% of the amount owing as of December 31, 2005. Likewise, the top 20 non-Dongfeng Group customers had increased its significance in our sales and accounted for about 44% of the gross debts outstanding at the end of 2005 from 38% at the end of 2004. The Company has noted the customers trends, repayment patterns and ageing analysis in 2005 which confirmed that the provision policy for doubtful accounts for the year ended December 31, 2004 is no longer appropriate. Therefore, the Company has changed its accounting estimates on allowances for doubtful accounts, taking into account the changes in customers mix. Past due balances over 90 days and over a specified amount are reviewed individually for collectibility. All other balances are reviewed on a pooled basis by aging of such balances. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.
Changes in the allowances for doubtful accounts for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2005 are summarized as follows:

The Company believes that the present level of its allowance for doubtful debts adequately reflects probable losses related to impaired accounts receivable. However, changes in the assumptions used to assess the frequency and severity of doubtful accounts would have an impact on the Companys allowance for doubtful debts. If economic or specific industry trends change, the Company would adjust its allowances for doubtful accounts by
10
Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
recording additional expense or benefit. Management studies show that a decrease or increase of 5% in historical write-off experience would increase or decrease the provision for doubtful accounts by approximately Rmb 13.9 million (US$1.7 million).
Realization of the carrying value of inventories
The Companys inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value at the balance sheet date. Net realizable value represents the estimated selling price less costs to be incurred in selling the inventories. Net realizable value is estimated based on the age and market condition of inventories.
If market conditions or future product enhancements and developments change, the Company would adjust its provision for inventories by recording additional expense or benefit. In the preceding three years, there were no significant differences or adjustments between the book cost and the net realizable or market value. Management studies show that a decrease or increase of 5.0% in historical charge experience would increase or decrease the provision for inventories by approximately Rmb 5.9 million (US$0.7 million).
Product warranty obligations
The Company accrues a liability for estimated future costs to be incurred under a warranty period or warranty mileage on various engine models, for which it provides free repair and replacement. Warranties generally extend for a duration (12 months to 18 months) or mileage (80,000 kilometers to 180,000 kilometers), whichever is the lower. Provisions for warranty are primarily determined based on historical warranty cost per unit of engines sold adjusted for specific conditions that may arise and the number of engines under warranty at each financial year-end.
Changes in the accrued product warranty liability for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2005 are summarized as follows:

The Companys estimate of its warranty obligations is evaluated on an annual basis. In previous years, warranty claims have typically not been higher than the relevant provisions made in the Companys balance sheet. If the nature, frequency and average cost of warranty claims change, the Company would adjust its allowances for product warranty by recording additional expense or benefit so as to seek to ensure that accruals will be adequate to meet expected future obligations. Management studies show that a decrease or increase of 5.0% in historical utilization experience would increase or decrease the provision for product warranty by approximately Rmb 8.2 million (US$1.0 million).
Realization of deferred tax assets
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent the Company concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. This valuation allowance is an estimate of the difference between the actual existing and future realizable deferred tax assets. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary
11
Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
differences become deductible, tax credits and tax losses carried forward utilized. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax assets, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Forecasted taxable income may significantly differ from actual taxable income in future years, which may result in material revisions to the valuation allowance of deferred tax assets. Differences in actual results from available evidence used in determining the valuation allowances could result in future adjustments to the allowance. The realization of the deferred tax assets is subject to specific PRC tax regulations and not solely dependent on generating future taxable income. For example, tax credits relating to the purchase of domestic equipment may not be fully utilized as the amount entitled for deduction each year is limited to the incremental current income tax expense of the subsidiary compared to the income tax of the subsidiary for the year before the domestic equipment was purchased. Tax credit may also have a validity period. It is therefore possible that a subsidiary has a taxable income but unable to utilize the deferred tax benefit brought forward, if any. Tax losses incurred by certain subsidiaries are not likely to be realized in the future in connection with the assessment for valuation allowance. Based on managements forecast of future taxable income, the Company views the recoverability of the deferred tax assets, net of existing valuation allowances, as more likely than not to be realizable. In addition, based upon the results of prior years taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the next five years in which the deferred tax assets are deductible and tax losses carried forward, management believes the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences and tax losses carried forward as of December 31, 2005. Deferred tax assets which were not probable to be realized had been subjected to valuation allowance. For the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2004, no deferred tax asset valuation allowance was provided. For the year ended December 31, 2005, management concluded that a deferred tax asset valuation allowance of Rmb 45.2 million (US$5.6 million) was necessary. This valuation allowance is primarily for tax credits that management believes will expire unused.
Forecasted taxable income may significantly differ from actual taxable income in future years, which may result in material adjustment to the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets.
Impairment of long-lived assets, other than goodwill
Long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.
The Company has conducted a review on the conditions of the property, plant and equipment. In 2003, management identified that certain property, plant and equipment would no longer be used in production due to the introduction of new environmental regulations in 2003. These changes required an impairment analysis to be performed. The estimated undiscounted future cash flows generated from such property, plant and equipment were less than their carrying value. The carrying value of such assets was therefore reduced to estimated fair value. Since there was no active second hand resale market for these items relating to property, plant and equipment, management has adopted the discounted cash flow model to determine their fair value. An impairment loss of Rmb 12.4 million has been charged to the consolidated statement of operations in 2003 under selling, general and administrative expense. In 2004, the Company did not identify any circumstances indicating that the carrying value of the property, plant and equipment may not be recoverable, and hence no impairment loss was recognized. In 2005, it was determined that certain fixed assets of Yuchai were idle or other factors existed that suggested that the recovery of their respective carrying values may have been impaired. An impairment loss of Rmb 4.9 million (US$0.6 million) has been charged to the consolidated statement of operations in 2005 under selling, general and administrative expense.
12
Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
If the estimates of cash flows and fair value of these long-lived assets change, management studies show that a 5.0% variance in historical charge experience would not have any significant impact to the Companys financial statements.
Provision for loss contingency for guarantee granted by YEGCL
YEGCL guaranteed borrowings of Rmb 7.6 million and Rmb 178.5 million (US$22.1 million) granted by commercial banks to unrelated parties in 2004 and 2005, respectively. The borrowings are due in equal monthly or quarterly instalments through one to two years. The guarantees were made to individual persons who applied for mortgage loans from commercial banks to purchase automobiles equipped with diesel engines produced by Yuchai. The guarantees are for the entire amount and term of the borrowings. In return, YEGCL receives a premium fee amounted to 2% to 8% of the amount of borrowings. All guarantees are secured by automobiles at a net book value totaling Rmb 11.7 million and Rmb 242.2 million (US$30.0 million) as of December 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively. If the individual defaults on payment, YEGCL would have to perform under the guarantees. It is reasonably possible that YEGCL would be required to make payment under its guarantees. As of December 31, 2004 and 2005, the maximum amount of undiscounted payments that YEGCL would have to make in the event of default is Rmb 7.4 million and Rmb 134.2 million (US$16.6 million). Pursuant to the requirements of FIN 45, the Company accrued Rmb 0.2 million and Rmb 16.8 million (US$2.1 million) related to its stand ready obligation under the guarantee arrangement in 2004 and 2005, respectively. In assessing the contingent liability, management considered the probable recoverable amount of the secured automobiles and the customers deposits against its obligations to the banks for the defaulted payments from the customers. The Company has assessed that there is a risk exposure relating to default by customers on the expected future payments and therefore such a provision for loss contingency is required. The amount recognized during the year ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 includes premium received or receivable, which is amortized on a straight line basis over the terms of the guarantees, of Rmb 220.0 million and Rmb 4.5 million (US$0.6 million), respectively. The amount of premium being amortized, which were recorded as revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 were amounted to Rmb 0.01 million and Rmb 1.2 million (US$0.1 million), respectively. The remaining balance of Rmb 12.3 million (US$1.5 million) as of December 31, 2005 represents the provision for loss contingency related to the guarantees where payment by the Company was probable.
Recoverability of carrying amount of investment in TCL
The Company acquired a 15.99% equity ownership interest in TCL in 2005 as part of its diversification plan to include new businesses, other than Yuchai. The total purchase consideration was S$32.3 million, which approximates S$0.12 per share. The market price of TCL shares traded on the Singapore Exchange has fallen to S$0.08 on December 31, 2005 and was S$0.085 per share on July 31, 2006. Management of the Company has assessed and deemed the impairment to be temporary in nature and the Company has the ability and intent to hold its investment in TCL for a period that should allow it to recover its carrying value. Accordingly, no provision for impairment is required.
Using the quoted market price at December 31, 2005, the TCL investment was valued at S$22.5 million (Rmb 109.0 million based on an exchange rate of S$1.00 to Rmb 4.83), compared to our carrying value of S$38.3 million (Rmb 185.0 million based on an exchange rate of S$1.00 to Rmb 4.83). If the Companys management considered such impairment to be other than temporary, an impairment provision would have been recognized and income before income taxes and minority interest would have been reduced by Rmb 76.0 million (US$9.4 million based on an exchange rate of Rmb 8.0957 to US$1.00) for the year ended December 31, 2005.

2005 Compared to 2004
Net revenue increased by 4.2% to Rmb 5,816.7 million (US$720.8 million) in 2005 compared to Rmb 5,582.1 million in 2004. The increase in net revenue was primarily due to higher sales volume arising from more aggressive marketing programs. Unit sales of diesel engines increased by 11.4% to 230,228 units in 2005 from 206,628 units in 2004 and this unit sales increase came mainly from higher sales of the 4-Series light-duty diesel engines and 6105 medium-duty diesel engines. In 2005, net revenues of the 4-Series light-duty diesel engines increased by approximately 31.0% and net revenues of the 6105 medium-duty engines increased by approximately 52.6% as compared to 2004.
Cost of goods sold increased by 16.6% to Rmb 4,673.4 million (US$579.1 million) in 2005 from Rmb 4,006.9 million in 2004, and increased as a percentage of net revenues to 80.3% in 2005 from 71.8% in 2004. Cost of manufacturing increased by 18.4 % to Rmb 4,517.0 million (US$559.8 million) in 2005 from Rmb 3,816.7 million in 2004, and increased as a percentage of net revenue to 77.7% in 2005 from 68.4% in 2004. Cost of materials consumed included in costs of manufacturing increased by 20.6% to Rmb 3,812.4 million (US$472.4 million) in 2005 from Rmb 3,159.9 million in 2004 (due to higher production during 2005, while cost of materials consumed as a percentage of net revenue increased to 65.5% in 2005 from 56.6% in 2004. Factory overhead (which does not include depreciation and salaries) included in cost of manufacturing decreased by 2.4% to Rmb 409.0 million (US$50.7 million) in 2005 from Rmb 419.2 million in 2004, due to lower variable factory expenses. The factory overhead as a percentage of net revenue decreased to 7.0% in 2005 from 7.5% in 2004. Depreciation included in cost of manufacturing increased to Rmb 90.4 million (US$13.7 million) from Rmb 84.9 million in 2004. Depreciation as a percentage of net revenue increased to 1.6% in 2005 from 1.5% in 2004.
Gross profit decreased by 27.4% to Rmb 1,143.4 million (US$141.7 million) in 2005 from Rmb 1,575.2 million in 2004. Gross profit margin (gross profit divided by net revenue) decreased to 19.7% in 2005 compared to 28.2% in 2004, reflecting a shift in the sales mix whereby the gross margin for the 4-Series and industrial engines were lower than margins historically achieved for both medium and heavy-duty engines.

Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
SG&A expenses (excluding research and development) increased by 20.5% to Rmb 793.2 million (US$98.3 million) in 2005 from Rmb 658.3 million in 2004 and increased as a percentage of net revenue from 11.8% in 2004 to 13.6% in 2005. This increase in SG&A was primarily due to the increase in sales, legal and professional costs and allowance for doubtful accounts on trade accounts receivable. Research and development expenses decreased to Rmb 123.8 million (US$15.3 million) in 2005 from Rmb 137.0 million in 2004. Advertising expenses included in SG&A decreased by 7.0% to Rmb 45.3 million (US$5.6 million) in 2005 from Rmb 48.7 million in 2004. Advertising expenses as a percentage of net revenue decreased to 0.8% in 2005 from 0.9% in 2004. Sales commission expenses included in SG&A expenses increased by 239.7% to Rmb 39.4 million (US$4.9 million) in 2005 from Rmb 11.6 million in 2004. Sales commission expenses as a percentage of net revenues increased to 0.7% in 2005 from 0.2% in 2004. The decrease in advertising is mainly due to lower spending on television and road signboard advertising. The increase in sales commissions is mainly due to higher commission given to promote the sales of new products such as 6L and 6M heavy duty diesel engines.
Included in the 2005 income statement is a provision for non-trade loans to a related party of Rmb 203.0 million (US$25.1 million). See Note 5 to the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements. Salaries and wages as a percentage of net revenues was 7.9% in 2005 and 7.4% in 2004. As a result of the foregoing, profits from operations decreased to Rmb 26.0 million (US$3.2 million) in 2005 compared to Rmb 779.9 million in 2004.
Interest expenses increased by 122.1% to Rmb 70.5 million (US$8.7 million) in 2005 from Rmb 31.8 million in 2004, primarily due to increase in bank borrowings.
Loss before income taxes and minority interests in 2005 was Rmb 25.1 million (US$3.1 million), as compared to a profit of Rmb 753.9 million in 2004. Income tax expense in 2005 was Rmb 10.1 million (US$1.3 million) compared to income tax expense of Rmb 105.2 million in 2004. Yuchai was subject to PRC income tax at a rate of 15.0% in both 2004 and 2005. The effective tax rates of Yuchai were 14.0% and 40% for 2004 and 2005 respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate for 2005 was primarily due to additional non-deductible expenses for tax purposes.
As a result of the foregoing factors, the Company had a loss before minority interests of Rmb 35.2 million (US$4.4 million) in 2005 compared to income before minority interests of Rmb 648.7 million in 2004, and a net loss of Rmb 32.3 million (US$4.0 million) in 2005 compared to a net income of Rmb 491.4 million in 2004.
As described above, a provision of Rmb 203.0 million (US$25.1 million) has been made for non-trade loans to a related party. Excluding the impact of this provision, the Companys net income for the year ended December 31, 2005 would be Rmb 170.7 million (US$21.1 million).
2004 Compared to 2003
Net revenue increased by 22.1% to Rmb 5,582.1 million in 2004 compared to Rmb 4,570.0 million in 2003. The increase in net revenue was primarily due to higher sales volume arising from more aggressive marketing programs. Unit sales of diesel engines increased by 20.0% to 206,628 units in 2004 from 172,219 units in 2003 and this unit sales increase came mainly from higher sales of the 4-Series light-duty diesel engines and 6112 heavy-duty diesel engines. In 2004, net revenues of the 4-Series light-duty diesel engines increased by approximately 54% and net revenues of the 6112 heavy-duty engines increased by approximately 20% as compared to 2003.
Cost of goods sold increased by 25.5% to Rmb 4,006.9 million in 2004 from Rmb 3,192.8 million in 2003, and increased as a percentage of net revenues to 71.8% in 2004 from 69.9% in 2003. Cost of manufacturing increased by 27.5% to Rmb 3,816.7 million in 2004 from Rmb 2,993.7 million in 2003, and increased as a
15
Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
percentage of net revenue to 68.4% from 65.5% in 2003. Cost of materials consumed in costs of manufacturing increased by 27.4% to Rmb 3,159.9 million in 2004 from Rmb 2,479.9 million in 2003 (due to higher production throughput during 2004), while cost of materials consumed as a percentage of net revenue increased to 56.6% in 2004 from 54.3% in 2003. Factory overhead (which does not include depreciation and salaries) included in cost of manufacturing increased by 118.4% to Rmb 419.2 million in 2004 from Rmb 191.9 million in 2003, due to higher variable factory expenses (such as utilities) arising from higher diesel engine production in 2004. The factory overhead as a percentage of net revenue similarly increased to 7.5% for 2004 and 4.2% for 2003. Depreciation included in cost of manufacturing decreased to Rmb 84.9 million from Rmb 88.7 million in 2003. Depreciation as a percentage of net revenue decreased to 1.5% in 2004 from 1.9% in 2003.
Gross profit increased by 14.4% to Rmb 1,575.2 million in 2004 from Rmb 1,377.2 million in 2003. Gross profit margin (gross profit divided by net revenue) decreased to 28.2% in 2004 compared to 30.1% in 2003, reflecting a shift in the sales mix whereby the gross margin for the 4-Series and industrial engines were lower than margins historically achieved for both medium and heavy-duty engines.
SG&A expenses (excluding research and development) increased by 17.3% to Rmb 658.3 million in 2004 from Rmb 561.2 million in 2003 and decreased as a percentage of net revenue from 12.3% in 2003 to 11.8% in 2004. This increase in SG&A was primarily due to the increase in sales. Research and development expenses increased to Rmb 137.0 million in 2004 from Rmb 94.6 million in 2003. Such increased expenses were primarily due to the development of the 6L engines and Euro II compliance. Advertising expenses included in SG&A increased by 18.8% to Rmb 48.7 million in 2004 from Rmb 41.0 million in 2003. Advertising expenses as a percentage of net revenue decreased to 0.9% in 2004 from 0.90% in 2003. Sales commission expenses included in SG&A expenses decreased by 30.5% to Rmb 11.6 million in 2004 from Rmb 16.7 million in 2003. Sales commission expenses as a percentage of net revenues decreased to 0.2% in 2004 from 0.4% in 2003. The increase in advertising and decrease in sales commission expenses reflected primarily higher costs incurred for the promotion of the 6L and 6M engines in 2004 and the change in Yuchais promotion strategies by offering lower selling prices to customers rather than through sales commission paid to its sales agents. Salaries and wages as a percentage of net revenues was 7.4% in 2004 and 7.5% in 2003. In 2003, management identified that certain property, plant and equipment were no longer used in production due to the introduction of new environmental regulations in 2003. These changes required an impairment analysis to be performed in accordance with SFAS No. 144. The estimated undiscounted future cash flows generated from such property, plant and equipment were less than their carrying value. The carrying value of such assets was therefore reduced to estimated fair value. Impairment loss of Rmb 12.4 million has been charged to income statements in 2003. In 2004, the Company has not identified circumstances which indicate that the carrying value of the property, plant and equipment may not be recoverable, hence no impairment loss was recognized. As a result of the foregoing, profits from operations increased to Rmb 779.9 million in 2004 compared to Rmb 721.4 million in 2003.
Interest expenses increased by 34.7% to Rmb 31.8 million in 2004 from Rmb 23.6 million in 2003, primarily due to increase in bank borrowings.
Income before income taxes and minority interests in 2004 was Rmb 753.9 million, as compared to Rmb 696.9 million in 2003. Income tax expenses in 2004 was Rmb 105.2 million compared to income tax expenses of Rmb 112.9 million in 2003. Yuchai was subject to PRC income tax at a rate of 10.0% in 2000 and 2001, and 15.0% in 2002, 2003 and 2004.
As a result of the foregoing factors, the Company had income before minority interests of Rmb 648.7 million in 2004 compared to Rmb 584.0 million in 2003, and net income of Rmb 491.4 million in 2004 compared to Rmb 438.2 million in 2003.

Inflation
The general annual inflation rate in China was approximately 1.2%, 3.9% and 1.8% in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. The Companys results of operations may be affected by inflation, particularly rising prices for parts and components, labor costs and other operating costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Companys primary sources of cash are funds from operations generated by Yuchai, as well as debt financing incurred by the Company. The Companys operations provided cash in 2003, 2004 and 2005. The acquisitions of TCL in 2005 and LKN in 2006 were funded from internal cash and external bank borrowings. In 2005, the Companys primary cash requirements were for working capital and capital expenditures to complete the expansion of production capacity. The Company believes that its sources of liquidity are sufficient for its requirements over the next year. Factors which may affect the Companys ability to generate funds from operations include increased competition (including as a result of Chinas admission to the WTO), fluctuations in customer demand for the Companys products, the Companys ability to collect and control its level of accounts receivable, the status of the Companys investment in Yuchai under Chinese law and the implementation of the Reorganization Agreement (see Item 4. Information on the Company Recent Developments).
As of December 31, 2005, the Company had approximately Rmb 736.2 million (US$91.2 million) in cash on a consolidated basis. The Company believes that if the Company is considered on a stand alone basis without its investment in Yuchai, the Company would find it difficult to raise new capital (either debt or equity) on its own.
The following table summarizes the key elements of the Companys cash flows for the last three years:

Net cash flow provided by operating activities decreased by Rmb 346.9 millions between 2004 and 2005. The decrease was principally caused by an increase in inventories, net of Rmb 321.9 million, due to stocking up at the end 2005 to meet expected higher sales in 2006. In addition, the decrease in net cash from operating activities was also partly attributed to increase in trade accounts receivables, net of Rmb 303.3 million and increase in amount due from related companies of Rmb 115.1 million. In addition, there was an increase in trade accounts payable in 2005 of Rmb 710.7 million arising from increased business activities from higher production. Net cash used in investing activities decreased by Rmb 76.2 million in 2005, principally due to repayment of Rmb 205.0 million of loans from a related company and increased in purchased of investments of Rmb 161.4 million. The Rmb 205.0 million loan repaid by the related company (YMLC) was subsequently re-loaned to the same company (see also Note 5 to the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements appearing elsewhere herein). Net cash provided by financing activities increased by Rmb 198.3 million in 2005, mainly due to net increase in net proceeds from bank terms loans of Rmb 1,238.2 million, proceeds from 2% convertible bonds of Rmb 206.9 million and offset by the dividend payment of Rmb 120.3 million made in 2005.
17
Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
Cash provided by continuing operations is a major source of the Companys liquidity. Other than with respect to the application of cash generated from operations for capital expenditures and dividend payments (see Item 8. Financial Information Policy on Dividend Distributions), the Company does not have a formal cash management policy.
The Company expects that cash generated from operations and credit collection arrangements should provide the Company with sufficient financial flexibility to satisfy future bank obligations, capital expenditures and projected working capital requirements. However, at certain times cash generated from operations is subject to seasonal fluctuations. As a result, the Company may use periodic borrowings to supplement its working capital requirements. Yuchai has established banking relationships with a number of domestic Chinese banks, each of which will review Yuchais loan applications on a case by case basis with reference to the loan limit approved by Yuchais Board of Directors. Yuchai had outstanding borrowings of Rmb 962.8 million as of December 31, 2005. The interest rate applicable to the amounts borrowed ranges from 4.94% and 5.85% per annum. During its April 2006 board meeting, the Yuchai board of directors approved an increase in this borrowing limit to Rmb 2,000 million. As of June 30, 2006, Yuchai had outstanding borrowings of Rmb 920 million. The Company believes that should there be a need for further loans from banks, Yuchai could seek to drawdown additional amounts up to such limit from the Chinese domestic banks; however, no assurance can be given that such additional borrowings would be approved by such banks.
The Companys working capital as of December 31, 2005 was Rmb 823.3 million compared to Rmb 1,402.2 million as of December 31, 2004. The decrease in working capital was primarily due to the increase of accounts payable by 65.2% to Rmb 1,800.4 million, with higher volume of raw materials and components purchased to meet expected higher sales in 2006. In addition, the increase in total current liabilities was also partly due to increase in borrowings of Rmb 482.8 million. As of December 31, 2005, the Company had long-term debt, including current installments, totaling Rmb 150.0 million, of which Rmb 100.0 million will mature in 2006. The Company had current debt totaling Rmb 812.8 million as of December 31, 2005.
The Companys capital expenditures were Rmb 515.4 million in 2005, Rmb 552.9 million in 2004 and Rmb 372.8 million in 2003. As of December 31, 2005, the Company had authorized and contracted for capital expenditures for improvement to existing production facilities in the amount of Rmb 214.1 million. As the Companys business continues to grow, it will also require additional funds for increased working capital requirements, including to finance increased accounts receivable. The Company expects to fund its capital expenditures and working capital requirements primarily from funds from operations generated by Yuchai and, to the extent that is insufficient, from bank loans incurred by Yuchai and the Company. Yuchais ability to obtain financing is limited by government regulation and a general shortage of debt and equity financing in China. Any additional capital contribution by the Company to Yuchai would require, among other things, the approval of the MOC, which has broad discretion with respect to such approval.
In February 2005, the Company issued $25.0 million in principal amount of convertible bonds due 2012 in a private placement. The convertible bonds carried interest at 2.0% per annum and matured in 2012, unless redeemed earlier in accordance with their terms. The bonds were convertible by their holders into newly issued ordinary shares of the Company at a conversion price of $12.969 per share, subject to customary adjustments. The bonds were fully converted by their holders in June 2005. Upon conversion, the Company issued 1,927,673 ordinary shares, representing approximately 5.45% and 5.17% of the then existing and enlarged issued share capital of the Company, respectively. The Company received approximately $24.9 million in proceeds from the convertible bond placement after deducting costs and expenses. The proceeds of the offering had been fully utilized to finance the TCL share acquisitions described above.
As an additional source of funding for the Companys business expansion and diversification related activities, the Company had in March 2005, September 2005, January 2006 and March 2006 entered into credit facilities for $25.0 million, $50.0 million, S$60.0 million (approximately US$37.0 million, based on an exchange
18
Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
rate of S$1.62 to US$1.00) and S$110.0 million (approximately US$69.2 million, based on an exchange rate of S$1.59 to US$1.00), respectively, with various banks in Singapore. The Company has drawn down the first three facilities as of June 30, 2006 in connection with its acquisition of shares and bonds in TCL and LKN described above. The purpose of the fourth credit facility is to enable the Company to make further new acquisitions as part of its diversification plans. These facilities aggregate approximately $181.2 million of which $112 million had been drawn down as of June 30, 2006. The terms of these facilities require, among other things, that HLA retains ownership of CYIs Special Share and that CYI remains a consolidated subsidiary of HLA. The terms of these facilities also include certain financial covenants with respect to CYIs tangible net worth and net gearing ratio throughout the tenor of the facility, as well as negative pledge provisions and customary drawdown requirements and events of default.
As part of its business strategy, Yuchai seeks from time to time opportunities to invest in domestic manufacturers of diesel engine parts and components, as well as in other related automotive businesses, including truck manufacturers, and insurance, warranty servicing and credit support for diesel engine customers. Yuchai may make such investments and acquisitions with funds provided by operations, future debt or equity financings or a combination thereof. Subsequent to December 31, 2005, Yuchai has lodged an application to the Peoples Bank of China for short-term bonds issuing limit amounting to Rmb 1,000 million (US$124.5 million). The application was approved on May 30, 2006 and is valid until the end of June 2007. Yuchai can issue the bonds in multiple tranches at various dates during the validity period of the approval. Yuchai intends to use these short-term bonds principally to refinance existing indebtedness relating to its working capital requirements.
Yuchai issued the first tranche of Rmb 500 million short-term bonds on June 13, 2006 with a maturity date on March 9, 2007.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company currently does not engage in any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Guarantee by YEGCL
YEGCL guaranteed borrowings of Rmb 7.6 million and Rmb 178.5 million (US$22.1 million) granted by commercial banks to unrelated parties in 2004 and 2005, respectively. The borrowings are due in equal monthly or quarterly instalments through one to two years. The guarantees were made to individual persons who applied for mortgage loans from commercial banks to purchase automobiles equipped with diesel engines produced by Yuchai. The guarantees are for the entire amount and term of the borrowings. In return, YEGCL receives a
19
Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
premium fee amounted to 2% to 8% of the amount of borrowings. All guarantees are secured by automobiles at a net book value totaling Rmb 11.7 million and Rmb 242.2 million (US$30.0 million) at December 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively. If the individual defaults on payment, YEGCL would have to perform under the guarantees. It is reasonably possible that YEGCL would be required to make payment under its guarantees. As of December 31, 2004 and 2005, the maximum amount of undiscounted payments that YEGCL would have to make in the event of default is Rmb 7.4 million and Rmb 134.2 million (US$16.6 million). Pursuant to the requirements of FIN 45, the Company accrued Rmb 0.2 million and Rmb 16.8 million (US$2.1 million) related to its stand ready obligation under the guarantee arrangement in 2004 and 2005, respectively. The amount recognized during the year ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 includes premium received or receivable, which is amortized on a straight line basis over the terms of the guarantees, of Rmb 0.2 million and Rmb 4.5 million (US$0.6 million), respectively. The amount of premium being amortized, which were recorded as revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 were amounted to Rmb 0.01 million and Rmb 1.2 million (US$0.1 million), respectively. The remaining balance of Rmb 12.3 million (US$1.5 million) as of December 31, 2005 represents the provision for loss contingency related to the guarantees where payment by the Company was probable.
Outstanding bills discounted
As of December 31, 2004 and 2005, outstanding bills discounted with banks for which the Company has retained a recourse obligation totaled Rmb 1,117.8 million and Rmb 1,373.7 million (US$170.2 million), respectively.
Outstanding letter of credits
As of December 31, 2004 and 2005, the Company had issued irrevocable letter of credits of Rmb 165.9 million and Rmb 110.3 million (US$13.7 million), respectively.
Except for the above off-balance sheet arrangements, the Company has no other outstanding derivative financial instruments, off-balance sheet arrangements or guarantees.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation (FIN) No. 47
In March 2005, the FASB issued FIN No. 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations (FIN 47). FIN 47 clarifies that an entity must record a liability for a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of the obligation can be reasonably estimated. The types of asset retirement obligations that are covered by this interpretation are those for which an entity has a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity, however the timing and (or) method of settling the obligation are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. FIN 47 also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. FIN 47 is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ended after December 15, 2005. The initial adoption of FIN 47 did not have an impact on the Companys financial condition and consolidated statements of operations.
FIN No. 48
In June 2005, the FASB issued FIN No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Companys financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of FIN 48 to the Companys consolidated financial statements.

Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 04-13
In September 2005, the EITF issued EITF 04-13, Accounting for Purchases and Sales of Inventory with the Same Counterparty. EITF 04-13 provides guidance as to when purchases and sales of inventory with the same counterparty should be accounted for as a single exchange transaction. EITF 04-13 also provides guidance as to when a nonmonetary exchange of inventory should be accounted for at fair value. EITF 04-13 will be applied to new arrangements entered into, and modifications or renewals of existing arrangements beginning in the first interim or annual reporting beginning after March 15, 2006. The application of EITF 04-13 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
SFAS No. 151
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, Inventory Costs, which clarifies the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). Under this statement, such items will be recognized as current-period charges. In addition, the statement requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. This statement will be effective for the Company for inventory costs incurred on or after January 1, 2006. The initial adoption of this statement will not have a significant effect on the Companys 2006 consolidated financial statements.
SFAS No. 153
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, which eliminates an exception in Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions, for recognizing nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets at fair value and replaces it with an exception for recognizing exchanges of nonmonetary assets at fair value that do not have commercial substance. This statement will be effective for the Company for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring on or after January 1, 2006. The adoption of this statement will not have a significant effect on the Companys 2006 consolidated financial statements.
SFAS No. 155
In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140. This statement amends SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. This statement resolves issues addressed in SFAS No 133 Implementation and Issue No. D1, Application of Statement 133 to Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets. This statement will be effective for the fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the statement to the Companys consolidated financial statements.
SFAS No. 156
In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140. This statement amends SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, with respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. The statement requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in certain situations and requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. The statement also provides guidelines to classification, disclosure and subsequent measurement of servicing assets and servicing liabilities. This statement will be effective for the fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the statement to the Companys consolidated financial statements.
21
Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004)
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which addresses the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, with a primary focus on transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. This statement is a revision to SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and its related implementation guidance. This statement will require measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for stock compensation based on the grant-date fair value of the employee stock options. Incremental compensation costs arising from subsequent modifications of awards after the grant date must be recognized. The Company adopted this statement on January 1, 2006 under the modified prospective method of application. Under that method, the Company will recognize compensation costs for new grants of share-based awards, awards modified after the effect date, and the remaining portion of the fair value of the unvested awards at the adoption date. The initial adoption of this statement will not have any effect on the Companys 2006 consolidated financial statements.
Research and Development
The Company has committed substantial resources to continually improve the technology of its products. The Companys internal development effort focuses primarily on improving manufacturing processes and adapting foreign technology to the Chinese market. In addition, the Company plans to continue to acquire advanced technology from Chinese research institutes, foreign engine design consulting firms and foreign diesel engine and engine parts manufacturers. As of December 31, 2005, the Company employed over 1,445 engineers, approximately 267 of whom were devoted to research and development, product enhancement and new designs. In 2003, 2004 and 2005, the Company spent approximately Rmb 94.6 million, Rmb 137.0 million and Rmb 123.8 million (US$15.3 million), respectively, on research and development. The Company believes that it has been able to control to some extent the increase of research and development expenses due to the relatively low salary levels of engineers in China.

PART II
ITEM 15. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only a reasonable level of assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and, in reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Group Financial Controller*, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Group Financial Controller concluded that as a result of the restatement described in this Form 20-F/A and below, as of the end of the period covered by this Form 20-F/A, the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
The Company has restated its previously issued consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005. The restatement was the result of errors relating to the accounts of Yuchai, relating primarily to an understatement of accounts payable of approximately Rmb 167.8 million (approximately US$20.8 million) by Yuchai for the year ended December 31, 2005. The review of the accounting error pertaining to accounts payable was conducted by the Companys Audit Committee, assisted by independent counsel and independent forensic consultants. As a result of this process, the Companys management and the Audit Committee identified errors in Yuchais adjustments of its accounts payable in its attempts to reconcile with Yuchais then-new accounting systems. In connection with their review, the Audit Committee made the following key conclusions:
1. | The adjustment of accounts payable in the amount of approximately Rmb 167.8 million was made in error but was not the result of: (a) any fraud or intentional wrongdoing on the part of any employee of the Company or Yuchai; or (b) any plan to intentionally inflate the profits. There was evidence that lower level Yuchai employees became aware that the adjustment was made in error but either did not understand the significance of the error or did not elevate their concerns to a higher level at Yuchai, where the issue could have been properly addressed. There was a similar lack of communication between employees at Yuchai and the Company regarding this adjustment. Finally, there was a failure among employees of the Company to communicate properly with respect to the filing of the Companys Form 12b-25 for the year ended December 31, 2006 on July 2, 2007. The Company and Yuchai are addressing each of the problems associated with the failures of communication regarding important accounting and other issues. |
2. | The Audit Committee, based on the investigation, made recommendations to the Board of Directors of the Company in order to prevent such an occurrence again. The recommendations include changes to be made to the Companys controls and procedures to improve their effectiveness, improve communication flow, clarifying the roles and responsibilities of Yuchais finance staff, training for Yuchai finance staff, and increase resources at the Company and Yuchai. |
In the previously filed Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company had disclosed the following:
In connection with the Companys recent business expansion and diversification plan, the Company has made minority equity investments in TCL and LKN, as described elsewhere in this Annual Report.
23
Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
With respect to TCL, the Company has experienced delays in the timely collating and integration of financial information from TCL management for use by the Company in preparing its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. This situation has primarily arisen from TCL managements lack of familiarity with US GAAP and SEC financial reporting requirements, as TCL maintains its financial statements in accordance with Singapore Financial Reporting Standards. Further, the Company did not have sufficient controls in place to detect timely all deficiencies in the US GAAP information provided by TCL in order for the Company to properly apply the equity method of accounting. The Company is pro-actively taking steps to assist TCL management to develop improved systems and procedures to enhance the quality and timeliness of the US GAAP information provided to the Company. The Company has specifically informed TCL management the importance that all significant matters must be communicated to the Company on a timely basis. The Company will continue to hold regular meetings with TCL management and review closely with the TCL management to record and disclose information received on a timely basis as appropriate. The Company will perform analytical review on the balance sheet and profit and loss statements received on a monthly basis to assess compliance with US GAAP requirements.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In connection with the audit of the restated 2005 consolidated financial statements, the Companys management and audit committee were informed of the following material weaknesses* in its internal control over financial reporting for the period covered by this Form 20-F/A. Based on the existence of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below, the Companys management has concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Form 20-F/A, the Companys internal control over financial reporting was not effective.
GRIR balance
Yuchai and the Company failed to timely identify and reconcile the original difference between the GRIR balance, which represents the amount payable for goods received but for which invoices have not been received, based on the SAP system and the GRIR balance based on manual compilation of the Goods Received Notes, which are internal documents prepared by Yuchai upon the receipt of goods for which invoices have not been received evidencing that the goods have been received in good condition and accurate quantity. In addition, management did not address the issue in a timely manner once the error became known.
Sales Discounts Calculations
Yuchai provides sales discounts to those customers who meet previously-agreed volumes and whose accounts receivable with the Company at the year-end meet certain criteria. Yuchais management incorrectly calculated the sales discounts. The employees calculating the sales discounts did not have adequate knowledge of the sales contracts terms and the Yuchais policy on granting sales discounts. In addition, there was a lack of detailed review of the sales discounts calculation by a person with adequate knowledge of US GAAP and a lack of supporting documents for departures from previously-agreed volumes and criteria.
Remediation Measures
To remediate the above mentioned weaknesses, the Company and Yuchai have implemented some of the recommendations of the Audit Committee, namely:
| Increase resources: The Company has, since late 2007, appointed its own dedicated Chief Financial Officer, General Counsel and Group Financial Controller, each of whose sole responsibilities relate to the Company. In addition, Yuchai has effected changes in personnel in its finance department as a measure to prevent such an occurrence again; and |
* | A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the companys annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. |
24
Form 20-F/A (Amendment No. 1)
| Clarifying roles and responsibilities and training for the members of the staff The Chairman of Yuchai has agreed to improve professional training of all its employees, provide training courses on the SAP system as well as provide clarity on the role and responsibility of each member of the staff. |
The Company is in the process of implementing the other recommendations of the Audit Committee to improve the overall effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures.
The Company has put in place procedures to ensure that sales discounts calculations are properly computed and recorded, and Yuchai is in the process of formalizing and documenting such procedures.
The Companys management performed analysis and procedures to ensure that the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 20-F/A were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, the Companys management believes that the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 20-F/A fairly present in all material respects the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
For future financial periods and to enhance the Companys internal control over financial reporting, management plans to review and make necessary changes to the overall design of the Companys internal control environment, as well as policies and procedures to improve the overall effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. If unremediated, these material weaknesses have the potential to result in the Companys failure to prevent or detect misstatements in its financial statements in future financial periods.
With respect to TCL, since the filing of the previously filed Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2005, as a result of the measures described above, the situation has been remedied and the Company has not experienced any significant delays in timely collating the integration of financial information from TCL management for any period since December 31, 2005.
Managements Assessment on Internal Control over Financial Reporting for 2006
While not required as of December 31, 2005, Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires the Companys management to assess the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006 and to include managements report on internal control over financial reporting in the Companys annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006. Although such assessment by the Companys management is continuing, the Companys management currently expects to disclose one or more material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting and conclude that the Companys internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2006. If any additional material weaknesses are identified, the Company will make public disclosure at the appropriate time and take action to remediate them as soon as practicable.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting
Except as described in this Form 20-F/A, there were no adverse changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Form 20-F/A that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.

R EPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
China Yuchai International Limited
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of China Yuchai International Limited (the Company) and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity and comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2005, all expressed in Renminbi. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of China Yuchai International Limited and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2005 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
As further described in Note 2A to the consolidated financial statements, the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005 have been restated for the correction of certain accounting errors.
As described in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recognized a provision for uncollectible loans to a related party in the amount of Rmb 203 million as of December 31, 2005. Further, as described in Note 34 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company entered into certain material transactions subsequent to December 31, 2005.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005 have been translated into U.S. dollars solely for the convenience of the reader. We have audited the translation and, in our opinion, the consolidated financial statements expressed in Renminbi have been translated into U.S. dollars on the basis set forth in Note 3(i) to the consolidated financial statements.

1 Background and principal activities
China Yuchai International Limited (the Company) was incorporated under the laws of Bermuda on April 29, 1993. The Company was established to acquire a controlling interest in Guangxi Yuchai Machinery Company Limited (Yuchai), a Sino-foreign joint stock company which manufactures, assembles and sells diesel engines in the Peoples Republic of China (the PRC). The principal markets for Yuchais diesel engines are truck manufacturers in the PRC.
The Company owns, through six wholly-owned subsidiaries, 361,420,150 shares or 76.41% of the issued share capital of Yuchai (Foreign Shares of Yuchai). Guangxi Yuchai Machinery Group Company Limited (State Holding Company), a state-owned enterprise, owns 22.09% of the issued share capital of Yuchai (State Shares of Yuchai).
In December 1994, the Company issued a special share (the Special Share) at par value of US$0.10 to Diesel Machinery (BVI) Limited (DML), a company controlled by Hong Leong Corporation Limited, now known as Hong Leong (China) Limited (HLC). The Special Share entitles its holder to designate the majority of the Companys Board of Directors (six of eleven). The Special Share is not transferable except to Hong Leong Asia Ltd. (HLA), the holding company of HLC, or any of its affiliates. During 2002, DML transferred the Special Share to HL Technology Systems Pte Ltd (HLT), a subsidiary of HLC.
Yuchai established three direct subsidiaries, Yuchai Machinery Monopoly Company Limited (YMMC), Guangxi Yulin Yuchai Machinery Spare Parts Manufacturing Company Limited (GYSPM) and Yuchai Express Guarantee Company Limited (YEGCL). YMMC and GYSPM were established in 2000, and are involved in the manufacture and sale of spare parts and components for diesel engines in the PRC. YEGCL, was established in 2004, and is involved in the provision of financial guarantees to mortgage loan applicants in favour of banks in connection with the applicants purchase of automobiles equipped with diesel engines produced by Yuchai. As at December 31, 2005, Yuchai held an equity interest of 71.83%, 97.14% and 76.92% respectively in these companies. As at December 31, 2005, YMMC had direct controlling interests in twenty-one (2004: twenty-one) subsidiaries, which are involved in the trading and distribution of spare parts of diesel engines and automobiles, all of which are established in the PRC.
In March 2005, the Company acquired 14.99% of the common stock of Thakral Corporation Limited (TCL). TCL is a company listed on the main board of the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (the Singapore Exchange) and is involved in the manufacture, assembly and distribution of high-end consumer electronic products and home entertainment products in the PRC. Three directors out of ten directors on the board of TCL are appointed by the Company. Based on the Companys shareholdings and representation in the board of directors of TCL, management has concluded that the company has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of TCL. Consequently, the Companys consolidated financial statements included the Companys share of the results of TCL, accounted for an equity basis since acquisition. The Company acquired additional 1.00% of the common stock of TCL in September 2005.
2 Basis of presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). This basis of accounting differs from that used in the statutory

financial statements of Yuchai, which are prepared in accordance with the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises and the Accounting Regulations for Business Enterprises issued by the Ministry of Finance of the PRC (PRC GAAP).
2A Restatement of previously issued 2005 consolidated financial statements
Management has identified certain accounting errors that required correction and a restatement of the Companys 2005 Consolidated Financial Statements. Following is a description of those accounting errors and the effects that the correcting adjustments had on the Companys previously issued 2005 consolidated financial statements:
Accounts Payable
At the time of preparing the financial statements of Yuchai for 2005, Yuchai management erroneously recorded adjustments in the amount of Rmb 167.8 million to the general ledger to reduce the amounts payable for goods received, but for which invoices were not yet received (referred to as GRIR). The correcting adjustments have now been made with the following impact on the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005:
| Trade accounts payable as of December 31, 2005 has been increased by Rmb 167.8 million (US$20.8 million), |
| Inventories, net as of December 31, 2005 has been increased by Rmb 45.1 million (US$5.6 million), and |
| Cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2005 has been increased by Rmb 122.7 million (US$15.2 million). |
Other Adjustments
During the course of finalizing the Rmb 167.8 million Adjustment, the Companys management identified certain other accounting errors that were not previously known. The Companys management has decided to correct these other accounting errors as well as the previously known immaterial uncorrected audit adjustments pertaining to its 2005 consolidated financial statements. Appropriate correcting adjustments have been made and are reflected in the restated 2005 consolidated financial statements of the Company. The net impact of these other adjustments and the effects on income taxes and minority interests for all correcting adjustments, including the Rmb 167.8 million Adjustment, is an increase in the Companys previously reported consolidated net income for the year ended December 31, 2005 by approximately Rmb 21.9 million (US$2.7 million).
Taxes: As a result of an audit by the local tax authority, it was determined that Yuchai had incorrectly calculated its VAT liability and that an additional Rmb 8.3 million of VAT was owed by Yuchai. It was also determined that Yuchai had under-provided for its income tax recoverable by Rmb 2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. The correcting adjustments had the following impact on the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005:
(a) | Value Added Tax: |
| Other receivables, net as of December 31, 2005 has been reduced by Rmb 8.3 million (US$1.0 million), and |

(Rmb and US$ amounts expressed in thousands, except per share data)
| Cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2005 has been increased by Rmb 8.3 million (US$1.0 million). |
(b) | Income tax: |
| Income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2005 has been reduced by Rmb 2.5 million (US$0.3 million), and |
| Income taxes recoverable as of December 31, 2005 has been increased by Rmb 2.5 million (US$0.3 million). |
Provision for bonuses. In 2005, Yuchai did not reach its stated targets to trigger the payment of bonuses. However, even though stated bonus targets had not been reached, Yuchai recognized accrued bonuses in its previously issued financial statements. Subsequently, the Compensation Committee approved bonus amounts that were lower than the previously recognized amounts. Accordingly, the excess bonus in the amount of Rmb 6.2 million that Yuchai had recognized has now been reversed. In addition, it was determined that there was an over-payment of bonuses in the amount of Rmb 3.7 million. This amount represents the amount to be recovered from the recipients of the bonuses, of which Rmb 3.0 million has already been returned to the Company. The correcting adjustments had the following impact on the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005:
| Other receivables, net as of December 31, 2005 has been increased by Rmb 3.7 million (US$0.5 million), |
| Accrued expenses and other liabilities as of December 31, 2005 has been reduced by Rmb 2.5 million (US$0.3 million) (resulting from an increase in Wages payable of Rmb 8.4 million (US$1.0 million) and a decrease in the Management bonus payable of Rmb 10.9 million (US$1.4 million)), and |
| Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2005 have been reduced by Rmb 6.2 million (US$0.8 million). |
Depreciation of fixed assets. The Companys management discovered that certain fixed assets of Yuchai continued to be depreciated even though their net book values had been reduced to zero. This resulted in an over-depreciation of Rmb 6.6 million. This over-depreciation has been reversed to correct the error. The correcting adjustments had the following impact on the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005:
a. | Property, plant and equipment, net, as of December 31, 2005 has been increased by Rmb 6.6 million (US$0.8 million), |
b. | Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2005 have been reduced by Rmb 1.4 million (US$0.2 million), and |
c. | Cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2005 has been reduced by Rmb 5.2 million (US$0.6 million). |
Volume discounts. Yuchai provides discounts to those customers who meet previously-agreed volumes and whose accounts receivable with Yuchai at the year-end meet certain criteria. The Companys management discovered that for some of Yuchais customers, discounts earned for 2005 in the amount of Rmb 12.7 million had not been

recognized in Yuchais 2005 financial statements. The correcting adjustments had the following impact on the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005
| Accrued liabilities as of December 31, 2005 has been increased by Rmb 12.7 million (US$1.6 million), and |
| Revenues, net for the year ended December 31, 2005 has been reduced by Rmb 12.7 million (US$1.6 million). |
Impairment of fixed assets. The Companys management discovered that certain fixed assets of Yuchai were idle or other factors existed that suggested that the recovery of their respective carrying values may have been impaired. Upon further evaluation, it was determined that a provision for impairment of Rmb 4.9 million was required. The correcting adjustments had the following impact on the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005
| Property, plant and equipment, net, as of December 31, 2005 has been reduced by Rmb 4.9 million (US$0.6 million), |
| Cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2005 has been increased by Rmb 3.1 million (US$0.4 million), and |
| Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2005 have been increased by Rmb 1.8 million (US$0.2 million). |
In addition, with respect to certain fixed assets of Yuchai that continued to be held and used, the Companys management corrected the residual value and remaining useful life assumptions for such fixed assets. These assumptions have been updated effective January 1, 2005, which resulted in an additional depreciation expense of Rmb 6.5 million. The correcting adjustments had the following impact on the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005:
| Accumulated depreciation as of December 31, 2005 has been increased by Rmb 6.5 million resulting in a decrease in Property, plant and equipment, net, as of December 31, 2005 by Rmb 6.5 million (US$0.8 million), |
| Cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2005 has been increased by Rmb 5.9 million (US$0.7 million), and |
| Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2005 have been increased by Rmb 0.6 million (US$0.07 million). |

Other Accounts Payable Adjustment for GRIR balance. Other adjustments have been made to the GRIR balance at December 31, 2005, which represents the amounts payable for goods received in 2005 but for which invoices had not been received at December 31, 2005, based on suppliers invoices that were subsequently received by the Company. The correcting adjustments had the following impact on the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005:
| Trade accounts payable as of December 31, 2005 has been decreased by Rmb 6.5 million (US$0.8 million), |
| Inventories, net as of December 31, 2005 has been decreased by Rmb 1.7 million (US$0.2 million), and |
| Cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2005 has been decreased by Rmb 4.8 million (US$0.6 million). |
Previously Known Unadjusted Audit Adjustments. The Companys management has also decided to correct previously known immaterial uncorrected audit adjustments pertaining to the 2005 consolidated financial statements. The net impact of these adjustments is a decrease in the Companys previously reported consolidated earnings before income taxes and minority interests for the year ended December 31, 2005 by approximately Rmb 4.6 million (US$0.6 million).
Effect on Income Taxes and Minority Interests. As a result of the above corrections, including the Rmb 167.8 million Adjustment, certain adjustments were made to reflect their impact on income taxes, which was Rmb 8.2 million (US$1 million) and minority interests, which was Rmb 30.8 million (US$3.8 million) in the Companys 2005 consolidated financial statements.
Reclassifications. The Company has also reclassified certain items in its consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005. These reclassifications did not have any impact on the Companys consolidated net loss, as restated, for the year ended December 31, 2005.
The following table presents the impact these correcting adjustments had on the Companys 2005 consolidated statement of operations and consolidated balance sheet. The effects of the above correcting adjustments have also been reflected in notes 3,4,5,8,9,10,12,13,14,15,20,22 and 28. As these correcting adjustments had no impact on the amounts previously reported for cash and cash equivalents, net cash provided by operating activities, net cash used in investing activities and net cash provided by financing activities, the impact of these correcting adjustments on the components of cash flow statement to reconcile net loss to net cash provided by operating activities has not been presented.

3 Summary of significant accounting policies and practices
(a) Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its majority-owned subsidiaries and those entities that the Company has determined that it has a direct or indirect controlling financial interest in. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, the Company evaluates its relationships with other entities to identify whether they are variable interest entities as defined by the Financial Accounting Standard Board (the FASB) Interpretation (FIN) No. 46 (R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46(R)) and to assess whether it is the

(Rmb and US$ amounts expressed in thousands, except per share data)
primary beneficiary of such entities. If the determination is made that the Company is the primary beneficiary, then that entity is included in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with FIN 46(R). The Company was not the primary beneficiary of any variable interest entities during the three years ended December 31, 2005.
(b) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash includes cash on hand and demand deposits with banks. For purposes of the consolidated statement of cash flows, the Company considered all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. None of the Companys cash is restricted as to withdrawal. See Note 29 for discussion of restrictions on the Renminbi.
(c) Trade accounts receivable
Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced value of goods sold after deduction of trade discounts and allowances, if any. Amounts collected on trade accounts receivable are included in net cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Companys best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Companys existing accounts receivable. The Company determines the allowance based on historical write-off experience by industry and national economic data.
The Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts monthly. Past due balances over 90 days and over a specified amount are reviewed individually for collectibility. All other balances are reviewed on a pooled basis by aging of such balances. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to its customers, except for outstanding bills discounted with banks (see Note 24(e)), that are subject to recourse for non-payment.
(d) Inventories, net
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and market. Cost is determined using the weighted average cost method. Cost of work in progress and finished goods comprises direct materials, direct labor and an attributable portion of production overheads.
(e) Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, taking into account the estimated residual value. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Buildings |
30 to 40 years | |
Machinery and equipment |
5 to 15 years |

(Rmb and US$ amounts expressed in thousands, except per share data)
(f) Construction in progress
Construction in progress represents factories under construction and machinery and equipment pending installation. All direct costs relating to the acquisition or construction of buildings and machinery and equipment, including interest charges on borrowings, are capitalized as construction in progress. No depreciation is provided in respect of construction in progress.
Construction of plant is considered to be complete on the date when the plant is substantially ready for its intended use notwithstanding whether the plant is capable of producing saleable output in commercial quantities.
(g) Lease prepayments
Lease prepayments represent land use rights paid to the PRC land bureau. Land use rights are carried at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over the respective periods of the rights which are in the range of 15 to 50 years.
(h) Investments
An affiliated company is an entity in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence in its financial and operating policy decisions, but does not have a controlling financial interest. Investments in affiliates are accounted for by equity method.
Investments in available-for-sale equity securities are recorded at fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of the related tax effect, on available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and are reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income/(loss) until realized. Realized gains and losses from the sale of available-for-sale equity securities are determined on a specific-identification basis. However, equity securities that are not traded in an active market and whose fair values cannot be reliably estimated are accounted for at their acquisition cost.
The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the decline in fair value below the carrying value of an investment is considered other than temporary.
(i) Foreign currency transactions and translation
The functional currency of the Companys subsidiaries located in the PRC is the Renminbi. Transactions denominated in currencies other than Renminbi are translated into Renminbi at the exchange rates quotes by the Peoples Bank of China (the PBOC) prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Renminbi using the applicable exchange quoted by PBOC at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as part of the related transaction amounts.
During the year ended December 31, 2005, the exchange rate regime of Renminbi was reformed by moving into a managed floating exchange regime based on market supply and demand with reference to a basket of foreign currencies from the unified controlled exchange rate based on market supply and demand.
The Companys reporting currency is the Renminbi and its functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Assets and liabilities of the Company and foreign subsidiaries and affiliates whose functional currency is not Renminbi are translated into Renminbi using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the year. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements

(Rmb and US$ amounts expressed in thousands, except per share data)
of the Company and foreign subsidiaries and affiliates are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) within stockholders equity. Cumulative translation adjustments are recognized as income or expense upon disposal or liquidation of a foreign subsidiary and affiliate.
For the U.S. dollar convenience translation amounts included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Renminbi equivalent amounts were translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date which is US$1.00 = Rmb8.0702, the rate quoted by the PBOC at the close of business on December 30, 2005. No representation is made that the Renminbi amounts could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. dollars at that rate or at any other certain rate on December 30, 2005 or at any other date.
(j) Income taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent the Company concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates, if any, is recognized in the statements of operations in the financial year that includes the enactment date.
(k) Revenue recognition
(i) Product sales
Revenue is recognized in accordance with U.S. GAAP as described in the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition (SAB 104). SAB 104 generally requires that four basic criteria be met before revenue can be recognized: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the price is fixed or determinable; (iii) collectibility is reasonably assured; and (iv) product delivery has occurred. For the Company, these criteria are generally considered to be met upon delivery and acceptance of products at the customer site.
Product sales represent the invoiced value of goods, net of value added taxes (VAT), sales returns, trade discounts and allowances. Yuchai and its subsidiaries are subject to VAT which is levied on the majority of their products at the rate of 17% of the invoiced value of sales. Output VAT is borne by customers in addition to the invoiced value of sales. VAT paid by Yuchai and its subsidiaries on its purchases of materials and supplies is recoverable out of VAT collected from sales to their customers.
(ii) Guarantee fee income
Guarantee fees received or receivable for a guarantee issued are recorded in Accrued expenses and other liabilities based upon the estimated fair value of guaranty obligations, and are amortized into revenue on a straight line basis over the respective terms of the guarantees. The Company will record an adjustment to the carrying amount of its obligations through a charge to earnings if it determines that it is probable that the Company will be required to perform under the guaranty.

(iii) Rental income
Rental income receivable under operating lease is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in equal instalments over the period covered by the lease term.
(l) Earnings (loss) per share
Basic earnings (loss) per share (EPS) is computed by dividing income (loss) attributable to common shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
The reconciliation of the Companys EPS is as follows:

Research and development expenses are shown net of a government subsidy of Rmb5,915 (US$733) for the year ended December 31, 2005. No such government subsidy was received for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2004.
(n) Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of costs over fair value of net assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is tested for impairment at least annually and when certain circumstances indicate a possible impairment may exist. The Company evaluates the recoverability of goodwill using a two-step impairment test approach at the reporting unit level at the end of each year. In the first step, the fair value of the reporting unit is compared to its carrying value including goodwill. The fair value of the reporting unit is determined based upon discounted future cash flows. In the case that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, a second step is performed which compares the implied fair value of the reporting units goodwill to the book value of the goodwill. In determining the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill, the fair values of the tangible net assets and recognized and unrecognized intangible assets is deducted from the

(Rmb and US$ amounts expressed in thousands, except per share data)
fair value of the reporting unit. If the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill is lower than its carrying amount, goodwill is considered impaired and is written down to its implied fair value. The results of the impairment testing in 2003, 2004 and 2005 did not result in any impairment of goodwill.
(o) Product warranty
The Company provides, at the time the product is sold, for the estimated future costs to be incurred under a warranty period or warranty mileage on various engine models, which the Company provides free repair and replacement. Warranties generally extend for a duration (12 months to 18 months) or mileage (80,000 kilometres to 180,000 kilometres), whichever is the lower. Provisions for warranty are primarily determined based on historical warranty cost per unit of engines sold adjusted for specific conditions that may arise and the number of engines under warranty at each financial year-end.
(p) Use of estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management of the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the recoverability of the carrying amount of long-lived assets including goodwill; realizable values for inventories; valuation allowances for receivables; and obligations for warranty costs. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(q) Impairment of long-lived assets, other than goodwill
Long-lived assets to be held and used, such as property, plant and equipment, construction in progress and lease prepayments, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the consolidated balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated.
(r) Commitments and contingencies
Liabilities for loss contingencies, arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that an obligation has been incurred and the amount of the assessment and/or remediation can be reasonably estimated.
(s) Sales of trade accounts receivable
The Company sells trade accounts and bills receivable to banks on an ongoing basis. The buyer is responsible for servicing the receivables upon maturity of the trade accounts receivable. Sales of the trade accounts receivable are accounted for under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. Accordingly,

trade accounts and bills receivable are derecognized, and the Company records a discount equal to the difference between the carrying value of the trade accounts and bills receivable and cash received. The Company has received proceeds for the sales of the trade accounts and bills receivable of Rmb1,730,627, Rmb2,380,569 and Rmb3,423,296 (US$424,190), for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. The Company has recorded discounts totalled of Rmb22,042, Rmb31,709 and Rmb44,362 (US$5,497) in respect of sold trade accounts and bills receivable for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively, which have been included in interest expense.
(t) Recently issued accounting standards
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No.123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which addresses the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, with a primary focus on transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. This statement is a revision to SFAS No. 123 and supersedes Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and its related implementation guidance. This statement will require measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for stock compensation based on the grant-date fair value of the employee stock options. Incremental compensation costs arising from subsequent modifications of awards after the grant date must be recognized. The Company will adopt this statement on January 1, 2006 under the modified prospective method of application. Under that method, the Company will recognize compensation costs for new grants of share-based awards, awards modified after the effect date, and the remaining portion of the fair value of the unvested awards at the adoption date. The initial adoption of this statement will not have any effect on the Companys 2006 consolidated financial statements.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, Inventory Costs, which clarifies the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). Under this statement, such items will be recognized as current-period charges. In addition, the statement requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. This statement will be effective for the Company for inventory costs incurred on or after January 1, 2006. The initial adoption of this statement will not have a significant effect on the Companys 2006 consolidated financial statements.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, which eliminates an exception in APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions, for recognizing nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets at fair value and replaces it with an exception for recognizing exchanges of nonmonetary assets at fair value that do not have commercial substance. This statement will be effective for the Company for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring on or after January 1, 2006. The adoption of this statement will not have a significant effect on the Companys 2006 consolidated financial statements.
In March 2005, the FASB issued FIN No. 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations (FIN 47). FIN 47 clarifies that an entity must record a liability for a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of the obligation can be reasonably estimated. The types of asset retirement obligations that are covered by this interpretation are those for which an entity has a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity, however the timing and (or) method of settling the obligation are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. FIN 47 also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient

information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. FIN 47 is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ended after December 15, 2005. The initial adoption of FIN 47 did not have an impact on the Companys financial condition and consolidated statements of operations.
In September 2005, the EITF issued EITF 04-13, Accounting for Purchases and Sales of Inventory with the Same Counterparty. EITF 04-13 provides guidance as to when purchases and sales of inventory with the same counterparty should be accounted for as a single exchange transaction. EITF 04-13 also provides guidance as to when a nonmonetary exchange of inventory should be accounted for at fair value. EITF 04-13 will be applied to new arrangements entered into, and modifications or renewals of existing arrangements beginning in the first interim or annual reporting beginning after March 15, 2006. The application of EITF 04-13 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140. This statement amends SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. This statement resolves issues addressed in SFAS No. 133 Implementation Issue No. D1, Application of Statement 133 to Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets. This statement will be effective for the fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the statement to the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140. This statement amends SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, with respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. The statement requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in certain situations and requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. The statement also provides guidelines to classification, disclosure and subsequent measurement of servicing assets and servicing liabilities. This statement will be effective for the fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the statement to the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In June 2006, the FASB issued FIN No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Companys financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of FIN 48 to the Companys consolidated financial statements.

5 Provision for uncollectible loans to a related party
The amount represents the recognition of specific doubtful debt provisions totaling Rmb202,950 (US$25,148) on the loans due from Yuchai Marketing and Logistic Company Limited (YMLC) as of December 31, 2005. YMLC is wholly owned by Coomber Investment Limited (Coomber), a shareholder of the Company and State Holding Company (collectively, the Chinese Shareholders).
In March and May 2004, Yuchai granted interest-free advances to YMLC at the request of the Yuchais PRC directors to provide YMLC with initial working capital for its start-up activities. YMLC was set up with the intention of offering a complementary range of services including spare parts distribution, insurance, vehicle financing and warranty servicing. These advances were provided with the approval of the previous Chairman of Yuchai but without the prior approval by the majority of the shareholders of Yuchai.
On December 2, 2004, these advances were converted into formal loans and written agreements were executed between Yuchai and YMLC through an authorized financial institution in the PRC. Under the terms of the loan agreements, the loans were payable in their entirety on December 2, 2005 and interest, at the rate of 5.58% per annum, was payable on a monthly basis. Further, the loans were secured by guarantees given by the Chinese Shareholders. Interest income of Rmb11,922 (US$1,477) was recognized in 2005 (see Note 7).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003, 2004 AND 2005(Continued)
(Rmb and US$ amounts expressed in thousands, except per share data)
Because the loans had already been disbursed, the Chinese Shareholders had issued guarantees for these loans, and the Companys relationship with the Chinese Shareholders was improving, the Directors of Yuchai believed that it was in the Companys and Yuchais best interest to ratify the loans. Consequently, the loans were ratified by the Board of Directors of Yuchai in April 2005.
In 2005, the Company discussed with the Chinese Shareholders the possibility of converting the loans into an equity investment in YMLC, subject to the Yuchai boards approval. This potential alternative was incorporated within the terms of the reorganization agreement entered into by the Company with Yuchai and Coomber on April 7, 2005 (Reorganization Agreement).
When the loans became due in December 2005, Yuchai was requested to extend the maturity date for the loans. However, the Company and Yuchai had been unable to access the financial statements of YMLC. Consequently, the Directors from the Companys and Yuchais boards had doubts about YMLCs ability to repay the loans. However, the Companys and Yuchais board of directors considered the request to extend the loans based on representations received from the Chinese Shareholders and management of YMLC concerning their respective abilities and intentions to repay the loans and honor their guarantees, and therefore agreed to extend the repayment date of the loans for an additional year. The extension of the loans was approved by the Board of Directors of Yuchai on December 2, 2005. An agency bank was appointed under PRC requirements to administer the Rmb205,000 loans and the legal method requires such loans to be repaid and the funds re-disbursed. The new loans carry the same terms, including scheduled maturity on December 1, 2006. New guarantees were also granted by the Chinese Shareholders for these loans.
Later in December 2005, after it was agreed to extend the loans, based on mutual understandings between YMLC, the Chinese Shareholders and Yuchai, access to financial records of YMLC were made available. The Company conducted a due diligence review, learned that YMLC was not profitable, and concluded that YMLCs future prospects were dim. The Company therefore decided not to pursue the conversion of loans into an equity investment in YMLC and also concluded that YMLC will probably not have the financial resources to repay the loans when they become due in December 2006.
The Company discussed this matter with the Chinese Shareholders and management of YMLC and also considered the financial position and financial resources of the State Holding Company and Coomber. CYI management has made an assessment of the future cash flows of the State Holding Company and Coomber and concluded that it is likely they will not be able to honor their respective guarantees in the event YMLC is unable to repay the loans when they become due.
Consequently, CYI management has identified a number of possible courses of action in the event YMLC is unable to repay the loans when they become due. These actions include:
| Taking actions to force YMLC to liquidate; |
| Retaining portions of future dividends declared by Yuchai and payable to State Holding Company until the guarantee obligations are fulfilled; and |
| Commencing legal action against YMLC and possibly the Chinese Shareholders. |
The Companys management has ruled out any form of legal or other enforcement action against the Chinese Shareholders as management believes that Yuchai may not be the first preferred creditor entitled to receive payment of the judgment debt. Moreover, management believes that the process for enforcement of a

judgment in China is complex and not as effective when compared with other jurisdictions. In addition management believes that the commencement of legal or other enforcement actions will likely lead to a deterioration in relations with the Chinese Shareholders which could have a materially adverse impact on the Companys investment in Yuchai and could lead to the impairment of shareholder value of the Company. Consequently, management believes that it is currently beneficial to the Companys shareholders for management to continue their dialogue and seek other possible arrangements with YMLC, Coomber and State Holding Company to resolve the repayment of the Rmb205,000 (US$25,402) loans rather than for it to resort to legal and enforcement actions described above. However, considering the financial condition and managements assessment of the future prospects of YMLC and managements intention to not seek legal or enforcement actions pertaining to the loans and related guarantees, management currently believes that it is probable it will be unable to recover any portion of these loans.

As of December 31, 2005, a subsidiary of the Company was granted with tax credits amounted to Rmb43,535 (US$5,395) in relation to the purchase of domestically produced equipment of which Rmb12,502 (US$1,549) would expire in 2008 and the remaining amount would expire in 2009. According to the relevant laws and regulations in the PRC, the amount entitled for deduction each year is limited to the incremental current income tax expense of the subsidiary for the year compared to the current income tax of the subsidiary in the year before the purchase of the equipment.
Certain subsidiaries of the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for PRC income tax purposes of Rmb47,182 (US$5,846), which are available to offset future taxable income, if any. Of which, Rmb13,328, Rmb13,630 and Rmb20,224 would expire in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively.
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The management considered that it is more likely than not that tax credits totalling Rmb33,834 (US$4,193) relating to the purchase of domestic equipment cannot be fully utilized as the amount entitled for deduction each year is limited to the incremental current

In 2003, management determined that certain property, plant and equipment would no longer be used in production due to the introduction of new environmental regulations in 2003. These changes required an impairment analysis to be performed in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The estimated undiscounted future cash flows generated from such property, plant and equipment were less than their carrying value. The carrying value of such assets was therefore reduced to their estimated fair value. Impairment loss of Rmb12,405 has been included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in 2003. Management has conducted an impairment review on the conditions of the property, plant and equipment in 2004 and 2005 and considered no impairment loss was deemed necessary in 2004 and 2005.

Notes:
(i) | The Company acquired 264,000,000 shares and 17,795,664 shares of TCLs ordinary shares on March 23, 2005 and September 5, 2005, representing 14.99% and 1.00% interests of the enlarged share capital of TCL at a consideration of Singapore dollars (S$) 30,880,000 (equivalent to Rmb152,133) and S$1,400,000 (equivalent to Rmb6,890) respectively. As a result, the Company held a 15.99% stake in TCL as of December 31, 2005. Among the 17,795,664 ordinary shares purchased in September 2005, 6,715,196 ordinary shares held by the Company as of December 31, 2005 are subject to a call option which is exercisable by certain members of the Thakral family (Thakral Family Members), who are stockholders of TCL. |
The option was granted only to Thakral Family Members by the participating creditors in connection with a scheme of arrangement dated October 24, 2001 in relation to TCL sanctioned by the High Court of Singapore on November 2, 2001 (the Scheme). The option price payable per TCL share under the call option is S$0.25 plus an interest of Singapore Interbank offer rate plus 0.5% from March 27, 2002 until the completion of the sale and purchase of the shares pursuant to an exercise of the call option. The Company has assessed the fair value of the options and determined that the value was not material. The 6,715,196 shares of TCL were held by a share escrow account on trust for the Company pending release to the Company as of December 31, 2005, subject to the call option. Assuming that the call option is not exercised by the Thakral Family Members, all the 6,715,196 shares of TCL will be released by the share escrow agent to the Company by August 31, 2006. As of December 31, 2005, the call option has not been exercised. |
The fair value, based on the quoted market price, of the TCL shares held by the Company was Rmb109,434 (US$13,560) as of December 31, 2005. Management considers the decline in fair value below the carrying value to be not other than temporary as the Company has the ability and intent to hold its investment in TCL for a period that should allow it to recover its carrying value. |
(ii) | Others represent the Companys interest in certain entities in the PRC in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence in its financial and operating policy decisions, but does not have controlling financial interests. |

24 Contingencies
(a) Product liability
The General Principles of the Civil Law of China and the Industrial Product Quality Liability Regulations imposes that manufacturers and sellers are liable for loss and injury caused by defective products. Yuchai and its subsidiaries do not carry product liability insurance. Yuchai and its subsidiaries have not had any significant product liability claims brought against them.
(b) Environmental liability
The Groups production is subject to certain environment protection laws and regulations in the PRC. In addition, the manufacture and sales of EURO I engines in major urban area became unlawful after December 31, 2004. After that date, the engines equipped with EURO I engines cannot be sold and used in major urban area. The Company considers that the compliance with applicable environment protection laws will not have any material adverse impact to Yuchai and its subsidiaries.
(c) Dispute with Bank of China
In 2003, the Yulin Branch of Bank of China (BOC) initiated legal proceedings to recover Rmb6,603 (US$818) from Yuchai based on an irrevocable letter of guarantee issued by Yuchai to the BOC in 1993 to secure a loan of US$550 to Great Wall Machinery Plant (Great Wall). At trial, a Yulin court ruled that if Great Wall could not pay the loan, Yuchai would be liable to pay the guaranteed sum to the BOC. Yuchai appealed unsuccessfully.
In January 2004, the State Holding Company issued a letter of commitment confirming that it would reimburse Yuchai in the event that Yuchai was required to pay on this guarantee.
Based on the advice from the Companys Legal Counsel, the Company has recorded a loss contingency equal to the amount of the claim. The amounts due to the BOC and from the State Holding Company have been recorded in Accrued expenses and other liabilities and Amounts due from related parties, respectively.
In 2005, there were no new developments in this case.

29 Foreign currency exchange
The Renminbi is not fully convertible into foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions involving Renminbi must take place either through the PBOC or other institutions authorized to buy and sell foreign exchange. The exchange rate adopted for the foreign exchange transactions are the rates of exchange quoted by the PBOC which are determined largely by supply and demand.
Foreign currency payments, including the remittance of earnings outside of the PRC, must be arranged through banks authorized to conduct foreign exchange business.
30 Distribution of profits
The Companys sources of cash flow are its share of the dividends, if any, paid by Yuchai and TCL to the Company. With respect to dividends by Yuchai, applicable PRC laws and regulations require that, before it can distribute profit to its stockholders it must satisfy all tax liabilities, recover losses in previous years and make contributions to certain statutory reserves as discussed in Note 22. Such dividends may be paid partly in Renminbi and partly in foreign currency. In the event that dividends are distributed in Renminbi, the dividends may be converted into foreign currency and remitted in accordance with relevant PRC laws, regulations and policies and to the extent permitted by PRC market conditions. Dividends of Yuchai are determined based on distributable profit reported in its PRC GAAP financial statements, after appropriation to statutory reserves. Such distributable profits differ from the amounts reported under U.S. GAAP. No similar provisions were imposed with respect to dividends by TCL.
Under the Companies Act of 1981 of Bermuda (as amended), the Companys contributed surplus is available for distribution to stockholders.

31 Derivative instrument and hedging activities
For the periods presented, the Company and its subsidiaries did not enter into transactions with respect to derivative instruments. The Company and its subsidiaries do not hedge risk exposures or speculate using derivative instruments.
32 Fair value of financial instruments
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, bills receivable, short term amounts due from related parties, prepaid expenses, other receivables, short-term bank loans, current instalments of long-term bank loans, trade accounts payable, amount due to the holding company and amounts due to related parties approximates their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. It was not practicable for Yuchai to estimate the fair value of its equity investment for which a quoted market price is not available because it has not yet obtained or developed the valuation model necessary to make the estimate, and the cost of obtaining an independent valuation appears excessive considering the materiality of the equity investment to Yuchai. Yuchai does not believe the carrying value of the equity investment will be significantly different from its fair value.
Cash and cash equivalents of Yuchai and its subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies have been translated at the balance sheet date into Renminbi at rates quoted by the PBOC. Yuchai does not have and does not believe it will have any difficulty in exchanging its foreign currency cash for Renminbi.
The carrying amount of long-term bank loans approximates their fair value based on the borrowing rates currently available for bank loans with similar terms and average maturities.
33 Significant concentrations and risks
(a) Customer concentration
Substantially all of the Companys customers are located in the PRC. The following are the customers that individually comprise 10% or more of gross revenue in any of the relevant periods:

due from these customers. The Company considers its relationships with these major customers to be good; however, the loss of one or more of the Companys major customers would have a material adverse effect on the Companys results of operations.
(b) Nature of operations
During periods of economic expansion, the demand of trucks, construction machinery and other application of diesel engines generally increases. Conversely, during economic slowdowns the diesel engine industry is generally adversely affected by a decline in demand. As a result, the performance of Chinese economy will affect the Companys business and prospects by a significant degree.
(c) Transactions involving Yuchais Chinese shareholders
Although the Company has proper legal ownerships and a controlling financial interest of 76.41% interest in Yuchai, the Company has from time to time encountered difficulties in obtaining the cooperation of the State Holding Company and Coomber. As part of the terms of the Reorganization Agreement, Yuchai and State Holding Company acknowledged and reaffirmed the Companys continued rights as majority shareholder to direct the management and policies of Yuchai through Yuchais board of directors. However, no assurance can be given that disagreements or difficulties with Yuchais management of State Holding Company and Coomber will not recur. In addition, as described in Note 5, Yuchai has entered into transactions that involves the Chinese Shareholders that have resulted in losses. No assurance can be given that future transactions involving the State Holding Company, Coomber and their related parties will be conducted on an arm-length basis or otherwise be beneficial to the Company. Consequently, such disagreements, or difficulties and transactions involving State Holding Company, Coomber and their related parties could have a material adverse impact on the Companys consolidated financial position, operating results and cash flows.
34 Subsequent events
