ZK International Group Co., Ltd. Provides Update on COVID-19 (Coronavirus) and Pre-Announces

Revenues for the First Half of Fiscal Year 2020

WENZHOU, China, April 8, 2020 -- ZK International Group Co., Ltd. (ZKIN) ("ZK International" or the "Company"), a designer, engineer, manufacturer, and supplier of patented high-performance stainless steel and carbon steel pipe products primarily used for water and gas supplies, announced today an update regarding the impact of COVID-19 (the “coronavirus”) on its operations.

After longer than usual shutdowns that spanned much of February due to Chinese New Year holidays and subsequently coronavirus-induced government mandated lockdown order, the production at the Company’s manufacturing facilities in Wenzhou City has resumed since early March and has been running at full capacity. The Company experienced increased backlog of orders during the shutdown period and now expects gradual easing of the backlog as its production returns to full capacity.

Additionally, ZK International announced that, despite the brief disruption in production and product work flow, the mandatory coronavirus lockdowns have not had material adverse impact on the Company’s operations and anticipated revenues for the current fiscal year.

Mr. Jiancong Huang, the Company’s CEO and Chairman stated, “Even with the slow-down in the last two months, we have managed to get our manufacturing facilities completely up to speed and operate at full capacity.

We look forward to another productive year, as we have built new relationships and have begun to explore new strategic opportunities that could solidify the future growth of the Company.”
