Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

Astro Aerospace Ltd. (the Company) will be relying on the Securities and Exchange Commissions Order under Section 36 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Granting Exemptions From Specified Provisions of the Exchange Act and Certain Rules Thereunder dated March 4, 2020 (Release No. 34-88318) (the Order) to delay the filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the Report) due to circumstances related to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

 

The disruptions in transportation, staffing, and technology systems which have occurred over the month to both the Company and the Companys professional advisors have resulted in limited support from the Companys staff and professional advisors. This has, in turn, delayed the Companys ability to complete its audit and prepare the Report. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company expects to file the Report no later than May 14, 2020 (which is 45 days from the Reports original filing deadline of March 30, 2020).

 

In light of the current COVID-19 pandemic, the Company will be including the following Risk Factor in its Report:

 

The occurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect our operations depending on the severity and longevity of the pandemic.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic is currently impacting countries, communities, supply chains and markets as well as the global financial markets. A pandemic typically results in social distancing, travel bans and quarantine, and this may limit access to our facilities, customers, management, support staff and professional advisors. These factors, in turn, may not only impact our operations, financial condition and demand for our goods and services but our overall ability to react timely to mitigate the impact of this event. Also, it may hamper our efforts to comply with our filing obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Depending on the severity and longevity of the COVID-19 pandemic, our business, customers, and shareholders may experience a significant negative impact.
