(Attach extra Sheets if Needed)
 
As indicated in a Form 8-K filed with the Commission on May 14, 2020, American Bio Medica Corporation (the “Registrant”) relied on the order (the “SEC Order”) issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 25, 2020 (Release No. 34-88465) pursuant to the SEC’s authority under Section 36 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) granting exemptions from certain provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder related to the reporting requirements for certain public companies, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to delay the filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2020 (“Form 10-Q”). Using the extension afforded under the SEC Order, the Registrant was to file its Form 10-Q by June 29, 2020. The Registrant filed its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 on Friday, June 26, 2020 and filed its Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2020 on July 31, 2020.
 
Management has been taking every effort with each filing (since the SEC order) to restore its past solid record of compliance regarding its periodic reports. Since the Registrant was unable to file its Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2020 until July 31, 2020, the Registrant will not be able to file its Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2020 by August 14, 2020 notwithstanding the level of expense or effort.
 
The Registrant is taking every effort to file the Form 10-Q within the additional five (5) business days afforded under the filing of this Form 12b-25, or by August 21, 2020. However, given the short period of time since its last filing, management is unsure of whether it will meet this extended filing date. If the Registrant is unable to file by August 21, 2020, the Registrant does expect to file the Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2020 shortly after the extended filing deadline.
