China Zenix Extends Filing Date for 2019 Annual Report

Apr 8, 2020

ZHANGZHOU, China, April 8, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- China Zenix Auto International Limited (OTC: ZXAIY) ("Zenix Auto" or "the Company"), the largest commercial vehicle wheel manufacturer in China in both the aftermarket and OEM market by sales volume, announced today that it has elected to extend the due date for the filing of its 2019 annual report on Form 20-F pursuant to the U.S. Securities and Exchange ("SEC") order dated March 4, 2020 (Release No. 34-88318). This order allows certain companies affected by COVID-19 to file its Form 20-F within 45 days after the original filing due date.

In late 2019, an outbreak of the COVID-19 virus emerged in China. On January 23, 2020, the PRC government began to lockdown key areas of China to limit the spread of this dangerous virus. Widespread travel restrictions were implemented and all non-essential businesses were shuttered in heavily affected areas in China. As the Company is headquartered in China, its operations have been largely suspended since the beginning of the Chinese New Year in late January 2020 through early March of 2020. The Company's finance team could not carry out their work as previously scheduled and were therefore unable to complete the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements and the Form 20-F in time to meet the SEC's original deadline of April 30, 2020.

In mid-March, the PRC government started easing travel restrictions within China, and the Company has been gradually ramping up operations to accommodate customer demand. However, the COVID-19 virus has since spread beyond China's borders, disrupting global supply chains and hampering consumer confidence and business sentiment. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the Company's operating results in the first quarter of 2020 and there is substantial uncertainty as to whether operating results in the second quarter of 2020 could fully return to normal.

In reliance on the SEC order, the Company anticipates filing its 2019 annual report on Form 20 no later than June 14, 2020.
