of the home country exchange on which the registrant’s securities are traded, as long as the report or other document is not a
press release, is not required to be and has not been distributed to the registrant’s security holders, and, if discussing a material
event, has already been the subject of a Form 6-K submission or other Commission filing on EDGAR.
Due
to the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), Luokung Technology Corp. (the “Company”) is filing
this current report on Form 6-K to avail itself of an extension to file its annual financial statements on Form 20-F for the twelve
months ended on December 31, 2019 (the “Report”), which is originally due on April 30, 2020, relying on an
order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 4, 2020 pursuant to Section 36
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Release No. 34-88318) regarding exemptions granted to certain public companies
(the “Order”).
In
December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China, which has and is continuing to spread
throughout China and other parts of the world, including the United States. On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization
declared the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern,”
and on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the outbreak as a “pandemic.”
China,
where we conduct our business, was materially impacted by the COVID-19. The Company has been following the recommendations of
local health authorities to minimize exposure risk for its employees, including the temporary closures of our offices, and having
many employees work remotely. There was a country wide lockdown from January 23, 2020 to April 8, 2020. As a result of the above-mentioned
factors, the Company’s books and records were not easily accessible, resulting in delay in preparation, compilation and
completion of our annual financial statements.
As
of the date of this filing, the Company expects, in reliance on the Order, to file the Annual Report with the SEC no later than
45 days after April 30, 2020.
Additional
Risk Factor
The
Company intends to include the following risk factor, as may be expanded or revised as the Company determines appropriate, to
reflect the currently unknown and constantly evolving effects of the COVID-19, in the Annual Report:
We
are susceptible to general economic conditions, natural catastrophic events and public health crises, which could adversely affect
our operating results.
Our
results of operations could be adversely affected by general conditions in the global economy, including conditions that are outside
of our control, such as the impact of health and safety concerns from the current outbreak of the COVID-19 coronavirus. Governments
in affected countries are imposing travel bans, quarantines and other emergency public health measures. Those measures, though
temporary in nature, may continue and increase depending on developments in the COVID-19’s outbreak. Due to the extended
lock-down and self-quarantine policies in China, we have experienced significant business disruption for the past three months.
The extent to which the coronavirus impacts our results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and will
include emerging information concerning the severity of the coronavirus and the actions taken by governments and private businesses
to attempt to contain the coronavirus, but is likely to result in a material impact on our business operations at least for the
near term.
