Mingteng International’s Subsidiary Entered into Strategic Cooperation Framework Agreement with Suzhou Lvkon Transmission Technology to Strengthen Partnership and Enhance Competitiveness in the New Energy Commercial Vehicle Market

Wuxi, China, Aug. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mingteng International Corporation Inc. (the “Company” or “Mingteng International”) (Nasdaq: MTEN), an automotive mold developer and supplier in China, today announced that its subsidiary, Wuxi Mingteng Mould Technology Co., Ltd., or Wuxi Mingteng, entered into a strategic cooperation framework agreement (the “Agreement”) with Suzhou Lvkon Transmission Technology Co., Ltd. (“Lvkon”) in July 2025, an innovative leading enterprise focusing on the power transmission systems for new energy commercial vehicles in China. This move marks a significant step in enhancing the Company and Lvkon’s strategic partnership and boost their competitiveness in China’s rapidly growing new energy commercial vehicle market.

Pursuant to the Agreement, both parties agree to focus their collaboration on key areas, including mold design and production and the integrated delivery of new energy aluminum alloy components. The partnership aims to strengthen primary cooperation in die-casting and foundry molds supply and procurement, while fostering deeper engagement through high-level management communication as well as the exchange of industry insights.

Mr. Yingkai Xu, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Mingteng International, commented, “We are thrilled to establish a full-scale strategic partnership with Lvkon. Lvkon has demonstrated outstanding performance in the new energy heavy-duty truck motor market. According to statistic from Tencent News, in the first quarter of 2024, Lvkon secured a market share of 19.1% in the new energy heavy-duty truck motor sector and 26.4% in the medium-duty truck motor sector, maintaining a leading position in both segments. According to the statistics from Evpartner, Lvkon ranked first in the new energy heavy-duty truck motors segment in 2024, with a 14.9% market share. While the new energy passenger car market has expanded rapidly in recent years, the new energy commercial vehicle segment also presents significant growth opportunities—driven by strong government support and rising demand for carbon emission reduction. In this context, Wuxi Mingteng and Lvkon are combining forces to capitalize on these emerging opportunities by leveraging our respective strengths. Currently, Lvkon contributes around 9% of Mingteng International’s total sales. With Lvkon expanding its market presence and anticipated order growth, both parties have agreed to substantially increase new product development efforts in the second half of this year, and accordingly, we expect that our total orders are projected to double in 2026 compared to those of 2025, laying a strong foundation for Mingteng International’s future growth and accelerating our expansion in the new energy sector.”
