M&A Analysis and Research Report on Ship-building Industry of P.R.C in 2007

•  The status quo of shipping manufacturing industry in China

The world ship manufacturing bases was shifting towards Japan from Western Europe in 1950s then spearheading to Korean by 1970s. It took only 10 years for Japan to become the top ship manufacturing nation around the world while 9 years for Korean to be second over America and European nations. China remains at the third place from 1995. The national Development and Reform Commission has recommended that China be the first ship manufacturing industry worldwide while engage the transformation of across-the-board into new industrial model by harnessing the potential from governmental preferential treatment in taxation and financial seeking policies. It is supposed to be group-oriented for intensified development in three harbours such as Bohai Bay , Yangtze River Estuary and Pearl River Estuary. The Commission of Science Technology and Industry For National Defense has set the goal to sharpen the edge of Chese Shipping industry to catch up with Japan and Korean in their current level with 10 to 15 years while the gross tonnage of 10million in 2005 is expected up to be 24million in 2015 by expanding the market share from 16% to 35%, which labels China the number one worldwide.

There is a fast development in China as the world economy looks up in resent years indicating a power house for leapfrogging increase in marine freight around the globe. The domestic and international shipping business remains brisk. It is anticipated that the domestic freight demand will be 31 million tons and 6.2million tons of freight per year and a common goal for China shipping industry to be the top one in this sector with the golden opportunity given in the first 20 years this century. Taking two superstars in shipbuilding industry for example, CSSC proposes to bring 9million tonnage at current level up to 10million as to stand at the third place on the world stage. The other is CSIC that is looking for 10million of tonnage by 2010.

2. The driving forces behind M&A in shipbuilding industry in China

There is unprecedented growth in shipbuilding industry in each passing year, which makes the M&A in this sector got on the headline. There are strong records left by accelerated phase of M&A procedures in ship manufacturing industry.

The seasons given by us analyses behind the M&A in Chinese ship building industry as followed:

•  Low labour cost is the major reason for absorbing foreign investment or putting plants in Chinese market.

B. Rosy picture in Chinese market. According the statistics from Clarkson towards world shipbuilding industry, based on shipping capacity, ship building number, order of carrying on new ships and order book share 17%, 23% and 18% respectively on world stage. Order book in china has been running over Japan to be the second place.

C. Shipbuilding industry charms private venture capital. Private sector that is planning to stake out new territory on a profitable position casts a reality where ship manufacturing industry feels short in business.

3. Tendency analysis in M&A of ship building industry in China

The M&A in ship building industry in the future can be characterized upon the analyses of us as followed:

A. M&A will deepen further into the industrial chain. Industrial-chain oriented M&A can amplify the business horizon on one hand to move supply and marketing smoothly while hold down the overall cost as to stir competitiveness. One example is the joint-venture firm committed by CSIC, W?RTSIL? and MHI targeting at the production in diesel engine for large-size low speed ship.

B. Foreign participation in domestic ship building. Many ship building companies in Japan and Korean such as Daewoo, Samsung, Hyundai and MHI have planned or ran and up joint ventures in China .

C. mixed ventures by non-insiders. Host of private capital are vying for taking over ship manufacturing companies as they witness a promising fortune and potential to be taken in this sector.

D. M&A brought about by revamping in military-related industry. Dachuan Shipbuilding, Southern Ship Building Plant, Bohai Shipbuilding Heavy Industry, Hudong-Zhonghua Shipbuilding (Group) and 4810 Plant was cracked up to be the cradle of Chinese navy. The state will bring out a whole spectrum of policies for scaled development in military-related ship manufacturing companies when spearheading to “Blue Water”Navy era.

E. M&A based on group operation strategy. Hudong Heavy Machinery Co.,Ltd issued less than 0.4 billion stocks towards CSSC with acquisition value worth of RMB 0.9billion while raising up RMB 3 billion of fund. Among others, CSSC pledged to more than 59% of total issuance over its take-over, Baosteel and Shanghai Electric at 16%, and Chinalife , China Marine Finance, Baosteel, CITIC will buy in cash. After the take-over, the new listed company will hold 100% of stock of Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding Co., Ltd and Chengxi ShipYard Co., Ltd, 54% of CSSC Shipyard ( Guangzhou ) as to be listed on the stock market as liable asset.
