ZHANGZHOU, China, Oct. 28, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- China Zenix Auto International Limited (NYSE: ZX) ("Zenix Auto" or "the Company"), the largest commercial vehicle wheel manufacturer in China in the aftermarket and OEM market by sales volume, today announced that it has been notified by the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") that the Company has not met the NYSE's price criteria for continued listing standard because, as of October 26, 2015, the average closing price of the Company's American Depositary Shares, or ADSs, was less than $1.00 per ADS over a consecutive 30-trading-day period.
Under NYSE rules, the Company has six months following receipt of the notification to regain compliance with the minimum share price requirement.

The Company expects to notify the NYSE of its intention to cure this deficiency within the prescribed timeframe.

The NYSE notification does not affect the Company's business operations or its Securities and Exchange Commission reporting requirements.
