Spotlight Stock: Fan Der Enterprise Launches Multiple Imported New Models in Second Half, Rises on First Ex-Dividend Trading Day

Import car distributor Fan Der Enterprise (2247-TW) commenced ex-dividend trading today (16th), distributing a cash dividend of TWD 7.99978 per share. The ex-dividend reference price was set at TWD 222, and the stock reached a morning high of TWD 226, achieving 50% dividend recovery and steadily advancing in its dividend recovery phase. Fan Der Enterprise believes that as consumer观望 eases, overall automotive market sales momentum is expected to gradually rebound in the second half of the year.

Fan Der Enterprise noted that due to uncertainties surrounding U.S.-Taiwan tariffs, consumer sentiment in the first quarter was cautious, leading to more conservative car purchasing decisions. This caused demand for luxury imported vehicles to be deferred. Additionally, inventory clearance during the transition to new model years impacted short-term sales momentum.

However, the company stated that the launch of major new models from BMW and Porsche in the second half of the year will help revive market demand. With inventory clearance nearing completion, new vehicle sales are expected to grow quarter-on-quarter.

In particular, the all-new BMW iX3 has generated strong market response since pre-orders opened, surpassing previous pure electric models in pre-order volume. It is scheduled to be launched in the third quarter.

Meanwhile, Porsche continues to strengthen its electric vehicle lineup, planning to launch the all-electric new Cayenne and Cayenne Coupé models in Taiwan in the third quarter. The Cayenne Coupé Electric will debut with three power variants, with a maximum range reaching up to 669 kilometers.
