With these results, Dongfeng Nissan's retail sales in the first half of 2013 surpassed the results of the previous year by 1.7 percent.

June results were lower year-on-year due to the impact of strong sales last year, when Dongfeng Nissan recorded its best-ever wholesale results for a single month in June 2012. The overall results for the Nissan scope were expected and within our plan.

Wholesale volume in the first half of 2013 was about 590,000 units, a single-digit percentage decline compared to the previous year but ahead of our internal objective. We still expect to achieve our annual wholesale target of 1.25 million units for Nissan (Nissan scope).
