In the past 20 years, our products have been trusted by many leading Chinese and global automakers. Looking into the future, whether a vehicle is powered by internal combustion engines, electric powertrains or fuel cells, or whether there is a human driver or autonomous driving, steering remains critical to the performance and safety for all vehicles. CAAS has some of the best products in the marketplace.\"\nMr. Qizhou Wu, chief executive officer of CAAS, commented, \"We continue to add technology to enhance our steering products to improve our hydraulic steering systems, broaden our Electric Power Steering (EPS) portfolio of products and further develop our advanced driver-assistance systems. These advancements enable us to attract new customers and better serve our existing ones. We have increased sales to global Tier-1 vehicle OEMs in North and South America and European-branded vehicles and broadened product offerings to new energy vehicles. Our EPS sales grew by 43.5% and accounted for almost 40% of total sales in the first nine months of 2024.\"  \nMr. Jie Li, chief financial officer of CAAS, commented, \"Our stock's market capitalization is well below our combined cash, cash equivalents and pledged cash, our working capital, and our book value. Our $0.80 cash dividend per share paid in August and this share repurchase clearly demonstrates our commitment to support shareholder value.\"\nFor the first nine months of 2024, CAAS recorded net sales of $462.2 million with net income attributable to parent company's common shareholders of $20.9 million. Total cash and cash equivalents, and cash were $138.8 million, or approximately $4.60 per share, at September 30, 2024. Total parent company stockholders' equity was $388.6 million. Net cash flow from operating activities was $16.5 million for the first nine months of 2024.\nAbout China Automotive Systems, Inc. \nBased in Hubei Province, the People's Republic of China, China Automotive Systems, Inc. is a leading supplier of power steering components and systems to the Chinese automotive industry, operating through eight Sino-foreign joint ventures.
