7 Key Industry Trends Increasing Consumer Demand for Electronics and Software Content Waning product differentiation due to general increase in vehicle quality across the industry convergence of mass market with luxury Consumers demanding more sophisticated infotainment systems at a low price, and more highend features to be standard Electronic systems contribute >90% of innovations and new features The cost of electronics and software was <20% of the total cost a decade ago today it is as much as 35% Infotainment provides a new way for suppliers to differentiate their products with OEMs and for OEMs to retain customers and increase margins Source: Strategy& Automotive Perspective United Parcel Service of America, Inc. UPS, the UPS brandmark, the color brown and photos are trademarks of United Parcel Service of America, Inc. All rights reserved. 7

8 Key Industry Trends Expanding Regulatory Requirements to Reduce Vehicle Emissions Regulations to reduce vehicle emissions are increasing OEM production costs, requiring higher volume to amortize costs E.g. US CAFE standards projected to add US$1,000 to the production cost of a vehicle Only a minority of auto buyers are willing to pay for more environmentally friendly choices so cost pressure falls largely on OEMs Some OEMs reducing weight by substituting lighter materials which increases raw material costs Product mix changes to meet new rules provides an opportunity for suppliers to differentiate their products with OEMs so that OEMs can control costs while meeting new regulatory requirements Source: Strategy& Automotive Perspective United Parcel Service of America, Inc. UPS, the UPS brandmark, the color brown and photos are trademarks of United Parcel Service of America, Inc. All rights reserved. 8

9 Key Industry Trends Creating Redundancies to Ensure Supply Chain Resilience Natural disasters and other severe environmental conditions in ASEAN countries e.g. floods in Thailand, smog in Indonesia require OEMs to engage in supply chain continuity planning, creating need for suppliers and distributors in multiple locations Some OEMs are setting up parallel supply chains to create redundancies and supply chain resilience This business strategy creates opportunities for suppliers in the Philippines to serve OEMs in new ways Source: ERIA Automobile and Auto Components Industries in ASEAN: Current State and Issues 2015 United Parcel Service of America, Inc.

16 Common Supply Chain Pain Points for Tier 2/3 Auto Parts Manufacturers Time-in-Transit and High Costs are Major Challenges JIT System In order to control inventory, many OEMs use JIT for production OEMs need frequent deliveries of parts with very short lead times Logistics service providers (LSPs) may not be able to guarantee on-time delivery, affecting OEM s production schedule LSPs may not have tracking capabilities to help OEMs plan for contingencies Supply Chain Costs Logistics costs account for about 4-5% of OEM total revenue Auto parts manufacturers need cost-effective solutions to help OEMs improve profitability Integrated Solutions Integrated LSP solutions can help manufacturers provide OEMs with better service, manage risk, and reduce costs Efficient Customs Clearance Customs documents need to be handled properly as any processing delay may affect OEM s production schedule 2015 United Parcel Service of America, Inc.
