ITEM 9. OTHER EVENTS
On April 22, 2020, Elegance Brands, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Elegance” or the “Company”), announced that in light of the circumstances and uncertainty surrounding the effects of the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic on Elegance’s business, employees, consultants and service providers, the Company’s management has determined that it will delay the filing of its annual report on Form 1-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the “Annual Report”) by up to 45 days in accordance with the SEC’s March 26, 2020 Order (Release No. 33-10768) (the “Order”), which allows for the delay of certain filings required pursuant to Rule 257 of Regulation A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company’s operations and business development have experienced disruption due to the unprecedented conditions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic spreading throughout the United States and the world and thus the Company’s business operations have been disrupted and it is unable to timely review and prepare the Company’s financial statements for the 2019 fiscal year. As such, the Company will be making use of the 45-day grace period provided by the SEC’s Order to delay filing of its Annual Report. While the Company intends to file its Annual Report as soon as possible, in no event will the Company will file its Annual Report later than June 12, 2020, 45 days after the original due date of its Annual Report.
In addition, the Company is supplementing the risk factors previously disclosed in the Company’s Regulation A offering circular and its Annual Report on Form 1-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, its Semi-Annual Report on Form 1-SA for the period ended June 30, 2019, as well as any subsequent Annual Report on Form 1-K, Semi-Annual Report on Form 1-SA and Current Reports on Form 1-U, with the following risk factor:
War, terrorism, other acts of violence or natural or man-made disasters, including a global pandemic, may affect the Company’s business development, the markets in which the Company operates, the Company’s customers, the Company’s delivery of products, and could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, or financial conditions.
The Company’s business may be adversely affected by instability, disruption or destruction in a geographic region in which it operates, regardless of cause, including war, terrorism, riot, civil insurrection or social unrest, and natural or man-made disasters, including famine, food, fire, earthquake, storm or pandemic events and spread of disease (including the recent outbreak of the coronavirus commonly referred to as “COVID-19”). Such events may cause customers to suspend their decisions on purchasing the Company’s products, make it impossible to attend or sponsor trade shows or other conferences in which our products are presented to customers and potential customers, cause restrictions, postponements and cancellations of events that attract large crowds and public gatherings such as trade shows at which we have historically presented our products, and give rise to sudden significant changes in regional and global economic conditions and cycles that could interfere with purchases of goods or services, commitments to develop new products. These events also pose significant risks to the Company’s personnel and to physical facilities, transportation and operations, which could materially adversely affect the Company’s financial results.
