Item 8.01 Other Events

 

Biotricity Inc. (the “Company”) is relying on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s 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 March 31, 2020 (the “Report”) due to circumstances related to COVID-19. In particular, COVID-19 has caused disruptions in travel, limiting in-person attendance of staff and professional advisors at the Company’s offices during the period in which, in the normal course, staff would otherwise prepare and auditors would audit the Company’s financial results, including attendance at a physical inventory count. This has in turn delayed the preparation and filing of the Report. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company expects to file the Report no later than July 15, 2020 notwithstanding the fact that the Order allows until August 13, 2020 (which is 45 days from the Report’s original filing deadline of June 29, 2020).

 

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

 

Natural disasters and other events beyond our control could materially adversely affect us.

 

Natural disasters or other catastrophic events may cause damage or disruption to our operations, international commerce and the global economy, and thus could have a strong negative effect on us. Our business operations are subject to interruption by natural disasters, fire, power shortages, pandemics and other events beyond our control. Such events could make it difficult or impossible for us to deliver our services to our customers and could decrease demand for our services. The World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, the impact on our customers and employees, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. At this point, the overall extent to which COVID-19 may impact our financial condition or results of operations is uncertain.
