SINGAPORE and SYDNEY, July 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Valvoline™ Global Operations,

Building on an existing factory-fill collaboration with Horse, the expanded partnership
extends Valvoline Global’ s lubricant solutions into a broader vehicle service ecosystem,
accelerating its business expansion in Asia Pacific.

Separately, Valvoline Global has entered a long-term aftersales agreement with Geely
Auto Group ("Geely"), one of China’s largest automakers, to become its designated
lubricant technology partner. As such, Valvoline Global will now supply high‑performance
aftermarket lubricants for Geely vehicles, including other owned and operated brands
under its parent company. Together, the expanded Horse and Geely partnership positions
Valvoline to deliver a seamless lubricant solution that supports vehicles from initial
assembly through the aftermarket ownership experience.

"Valvoline has demonstrated deep technical capability, a robust global supply chain,
and a shared commitment to advancing the next generation of mobility solutions,"
said **Simon Hu, Chief Procurement Officer of Horse Powertrain. **"This long-term
collaboration reinforces our ability to deliver exceptional performance, durability,
and sustainability to our customers, and we are pleased to have Valvoline Global

As part of Valvoline Global’ s agreement with Geely, the brand introduces a new 
line of co-engineered lubricants for Geely vehicles, including the Valvoline GEELY
Ultra Full Synthetic Engine Oil, Valvoline GEELY Full Synthetic Engine Oil, and 
others. Co-developed with Geely and validated through rigorous OEM testing, these
synthetic and full synthetic formulations are engineered for fuel economy, engine
efficiency and cleanliness, and protection of critical engine components. All formulations
available to consumers meet powertrain specifications required by Horse.
