The Company requires additional time to prepare its financial statements to be filed as a part of the Form 10-Q due primarily to its continuing efforts to complete its annual consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2016, which have been delayed as a result of its requirement to file restated consolidated financial statements for certain prior periods as identified in and for the reasons described in the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 17, 2015, June 9, 2015, November 12, 2015, February 26, 2016, May 10, 2016, August 1, 2016, November 17, 2016, March 15, 2017, May 8, 2017, June 23, 2017 and August 9, 2017. These restated consolidated financial statements were included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the SEC on May 12, 2017.
