PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-CEN, N-CSR,  or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

Nam Tai Property Inc., a corporation registered in the British Virgin Islands (the “Company”), has determined that it is unable to file its Annual Report on Form 20-F for year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Annual Report”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) within the prescribed time period, because the management team of the Company does not have access to the assets or books and records of the Company necessary to complete the financial statements to be included in the Annual Report. Representatives of the Company have been unable to gain on-shore access and control over the on-shore assets or books and records of the Company in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), referred to herein as “on-shore assets,” which comprise substantially all of the assets and books and records of the Company, including its subsidiaries. The former management team of the Company and the Company’s PRC subsidiaries have refused to turn over the corporate seals (also known as chops), which are used under PRC law in place of signatures and which are mandatory for doing business in the PRC. Due to the current management team’s lack of access to the chops, the Company and its auditors lack access to the on-shore assets and the books and records of substantially all of the Company’s operations. That access is necessary in order to complete the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the Annual Report. Therefore, until such time that the Company obtains control over on-shore assets and books and records of the Company and its subsidiaries, it will be unable to file an Annual Report.

The Company intends to file the Annual Report as soon as practicable after the completion of the Company’s financial statements, once it gains on-shore control.

PART IV — OTHER INFORMATION

 

(1)          Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this notification
    Yu Chunhua          +86-135          2014 0965
    (Name)     (Area Code)     (Telephone Number)

Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If the answer is no, identify report(s).    ☐  Yes    ☒  No

    Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2021
(3)    

Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?    ☐  Yes    ☐  No

    If so : attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
    The Company is unable to estimate whether there are any significant changes in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year, and if there are, whether such changes will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the Annual Report once filed. As stated above, representatives of the Company do not have access to the on-shore assets or books and records of the Company, which is necessary in order to complete the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. For additional information, please see the Company’s response to Part III.
