PART III — NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q,10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
On October 26, 2018, Sugarmade Inc. (the “Registrant”) received a letter from its auditing firm (the “Auditor Letter”) stating, “Due to the recent state of emergencies from hurricanes Florence and Michael, our ability to timely complete our audit procedures was affected…”. The Auditor Letter references Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, (the “SEC”) Release No. 34-84440 dated October 16, 2018 (the “October 16th Order”). A copy of Release No. 34-84440 is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Pursuant to Section I of the October 16th Order, the SEC has established a time period for relief with respect to those persons or entities affected by Hurricane Michael, for the period from and including October 10, 2018 to November 21, 2018, all reports, schedules or forms must be filed on or before November 23, 2018.
The Registrant and its board of directors believe the conditions outlined in Section II, paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of the October 16th Order apply to the current situation regarding the Registrant’s reporting requirements under Exchange Act Section 13(a) or 15(d) relative to the filing of Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2018.
Thus, based on the recommendation of its Florida-based auditor and pursuant to the October 16th Order, and specifically to Section II, Paragraph of the Order (c), the Registrant is disclosing it is relying in the Order and will thus be filing Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2018 by November 23, 2018, as is authorized by the Order. The Registrant will file its complete Form 10-K within the extend time allotted by Rule 12b-25 and the Order.
