Item 8.01 Other Events
Extension for Filing of Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
Quarter Ended March 31, 2020
On March 4, 2020, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“SEC”) issued an order under Section 36 (Release No.
34-88318) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(“Exchange Act”), granting exemptions from specified
provisions of the Exchange Act and certain rules thereunder. On
March 25, 2020, the order was modified and superseded by a new SEC
order (Release No. 34-88465), which provides conditional relief to
public companies that are unable to timely comply with their filing
obligations as a result of the novel coronavirus
(“COVID-19”) outbreak (the “SEC
Order”).
Trio-Tech International (the “Company”) has
experienced disruption due to the unprecedented conditions
surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. These disruptions include, but
are not limited to, the timing of the COVID-19 pandemic
restrictions in relation to the filing cycle for the
Company’s third quarter Form 10-Q, the requirements that the
Company’s corporate support staff work remotely, along with
reduced staffing at our business locations and the differing
governmental restrictions in the various jurisdictions in which the
Company operates. While the design of
our processes and controls allow for remote execution with
accessibility to secure data, the Company has still inevitably been
impacted in the interactions with its corporate support
staff and other internal personnel responsible for the preparation
and timely filing of its Quarterly Report.
The Company is relying on the SEC Order to extend the due date for
the filing of its Form 10-Q for the third quarter ended March 31,
2020 due to circumstances related to the COVID-19
pandemic for a
period of up to 45 days after the original due date therefor. We
intend to file the Form 10-Q as soon as practicable, and in no
event later than June 29, 2020, the end of the 45-day extension
period.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the
requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant
