ZK International Issues Revenue Guidance of 25% Year-over-Year Growth for Fiscal Year 2019

WENZHOU, China, April 17, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- ZK International Group Co., Ltd. (ZKIN) ("ZK International" or the "Company"), today provides revenue guidance for the fiscal year 2019. The Company anticipates revenue to increase by $13.7 million, or 25%, to approximately $68.6 million for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2019 from $54.9 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018.

Revenue growth year-over-year will be primarily driven by the continuing urbanization of China and the local government's initiatives to improve existing and new water and gas infrastructure. The Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development has openly encouraged the application of stainless steel piping systems such as ZK International's proprietary products as the preferred pipe material as compared to copper. To expedite the process, the government is working with local agencies to implement these standards.

Mr. Jiancong Huang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of ZK International, stated, "We are anticipating revenue growth of 25% for fiscal year 2019, falling in line with our approximate year-over-year growth rate we have experienced historically. The continued urbanization of China and the evolving government standards has allowed us to build new customer relationships to support these efforts. In 2018, we invested our revenue in sales and marketing in anticipation of the growth we expect to achieve in the coming year. We remain committed to producing high quality products and leading the water and gas infrastructure upgrade initiatives in China."
