Armco Metals Holdings, Inc. (AMCO) Obtains Gov’t Approval for Annual Import of 20,000 Metric Tons of Restricted Materials

Today before the opening bell, Armco Metals reported its subsidiary, Renewable Metals, Inc., had obtained a restricted materials import approval from the Environmental Management of the Solid Waste in China.

The approval enables Renewable Metals to import up to 20,000 metric tons of a range of materials on an annual basis. These materials include: steel-based scrap, copper-based scrap, and aluminum-based scrap. Renewable Metals has been taking steps in recent years to improve its operations so it could obtain this governmental approval.

The receipt of approval represents a significant company development for Armco Metals. It will now be able to import certain non-ferrous metals, which typically have significantly higher gross margins than basic scrap steel. Armco Metals is now more strongly positioned for business scaling, as it also recently received a $15 million credit facility approval.

Commenting on the announcement, Kexuan Yao, Chairman and CEO of Armco Metals, stated, “China’s demand for non-ferrous scrap metal has significantly outpaced domestic resources for many years forcing Chinese companies to seek international sources for supply of these materials. Also, beginning in 2013, the China General Administration of Customs has significantly tightened inspection standards on the import of scrap metals in an effort to insure more fair business practices in the regulation of import supply. This approval demonstrates that we have complied with the standards necessary to operate this expanded business and we intend to work diligently to build our operations in what we believe will be a very lucrative business for our Company in the years to come.”
