Timing of Filing of Annual Report on Form
20-F for the Year Ended December 31, 2019
Ossen Innovation
Co., Ltd. (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” or “ours”) is unable to
make a timely filing of its Annual Report on Form 20-F (the “Annual Report”) as a result of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19)
outbreak.
As a result of the outbreak and spread
of COVID-19, the Company’s factories in Jiujiang and Ma’anshan were temporarily closed from China’s Spring Festival
national holiday in late January to March 9, 2020. Restrictions on access to the Company’s facilities have resulted in delays
by the Company in the preparation of its financial statements and by its independent public accountant in the completion of the
necessary audit procedures. This, in turn, has hampered the ability of the Company to complete its financial statements and prepare
the Annual Report in time to be filed by the original due date of April 30, 2020.
The Company is relying
on SEC Release No. 34-88465 dated March 25, 2020 to delay the filing of the Annual Report and expects to file the Annual Report
no later than June 14, 2020 (which is 45 days from the original filing deadline of April 30, 2020). The Company will work diligently
to comply with such requirements.
Supplemental Risk Factor
In light of recent
developments relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company is supplementing this Form 6-K with the following risk factor:
Our business operations have been
and may continue to be materially and adversely affected by the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19).
An outbreak of respiratory
illness caused by COVID-19 emerged in China in late 2019 and has expanded within the rest of China and globally. The Company’s
principal operations are located in China. The new strain of COVID-19 is considered to be highly contagious and poses a serious
public health threat. The World Health Organization (the “WHO”) is closely monitoring and evaluating the situation.
On March 11, 2020, the WHO declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a pandemic, expanding its assessment of the threat beyond the global
health emergency it had announced in January.
Any outbreak of such
epidemic illness or other adverse public health developments in China or elsewhere in the world will materially and adversely affect
the global economy, our markets and our business. Restrictions on the movement of people and goods currently remain in place in
certain regions, which requires us to adjust certain of our sales and delivery processes. A prolonged outbreak of COVID-19 could
create disruptions in our operations, which may result in delays of our production and manufacture. Our factories in Jiujiang and
Ma’anshan were temporarily closed from China’s Spring Festival national holiday in late January to March 9, 2020, as
a result of the COVID-19 outbreak. This may affect our overall financial performance in 2020, although we cannot quantify the overall
impact at this time.
We cannot foresee whether
the outbreak of COVID-19 will be effectively contained, nor can we predict the severity and duration of its impact. If the outbreak
of COVID-19 is not effectively and timely controlled, our business operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely
affected as a result of the deteriorating market outlook, the slowdown in regional and national economic growth, weakened liquidity
and financial condition of our customers and other factors that we cannot foresee. Any of these factors and other factors beyond
our control could have an adverse effect on the overall business environment, cause uncertainties in the regions where we conduct
business, cause our business to suffer in ways that we cannot predict and materially and adversely impact our business, financial
condition and results of operations.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain of the statements
contained in this Current Report on Form 6-K should be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
These forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,”
“intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,”
“could,” “should,” “would,” “continue,” “seek,” “target,”
“guidance,” “outlook,” “if current trends continue,” “optimistic,” “forecast”
and other similar words. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements about the Company’s plans, objectives,
expectations, intentions, estimates and strategies for the future, and other statements that are not historical facts. These forward-looking
statements are based on the Company’s current objectives, beliefs and expectations, and they are subject to significant risks
and uncertainties that may cause actual results and financial position and timing of certain events to differ materially from the
information in the forward-looking statements. There may be other factors of which the Company is not currently aware that may
affect matters discussed in the forward-looking statements and may also cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed.
In particular, the consequences of the COVID-19 outbreak to economic conditions and the industry in general and the financial position
and operating results of the Company in particular have been material, are changing rapidly, and cannot be predicted. The Company
does not assume any obligation to publicly update or supplement any forward-looking statement to reflect actual results, changes
in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting these forward-looking statements other than as required by law. Any forward-looking
statements speak only as of the date hereof or as of the dates indicated in the statement.
