China Zenix Auto International Announces Intent to Appeal NYSE Delisting Decision

ZHANGZHOU, China, June 15, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- China Zenix Auto International Limited (NYSE: ZX) ("the Company"), the largest commercial vehicle wheel manufacturer in China in both the aftermarket and OEM market by sales volume, today announced it has received a delisting notice from the NYSE. The delisting became effective on June 14, 2018.

The delisting decision was made by the NYSE staff in relation to a review of the trading of the Company's stock during certain periods in 2015 and 2016 when its stock price fell below the NYSE minimum price requirement. The Company was disappointed by the decision of the NYSE staff and disagrees with their factual findings. The Company has decided to appeal against the NYSE delisting decision.  In the meantime, the Company will apply for its common stock to be quoted and traded on the OTCQX.

The Company remains committed to protecting shareholder value despite the delisting. The Company has a strong cash position, with bank balances and cash of RMB783.7 million (US$124.9 million) and fixed bank deposits with a maturity period over three months of RMB290.0 million (US$46.2 million) as of March 31, 2018. The board of directors will explore options of deploying some of the available cash through share buybacks and cash dividends.

The Company will continue filing its periodic reports with the Securities Exchange Commission. The Company plans to report its financial results for the second quarter on or before August 17, 2018.
