VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 25, 2020 / NHS Industries Ltd. (CSE:NHS) (the "Company" or "NHS") is postponing filing its interim financial statements and management's discussion and analysis for the six months ended June 30, 2020 (the "Interim Statements"), due to logistics and delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
NHS is relying on exemptive relief recently granted by Canadian securities regulatory authorities that allow it to delay the filing of its Interim Statements, normally required by August 31, 2020. In response to the coronavirus pandemic, securities regulatory authorities in Canada have granted a blanket exemption allowing issuers an additional 45 days to complete their regulatory filings.
NHS estimates that its Interim Statements will be available for filing on or before October 15, 2020. Until such time as the Interim Statements are filed, NHS' management and other insiders are subject to a trading blackout that reflects the principles contained in section 9 of National Policy 11-207 [Failure to File Cease Trade Orders and Revocations in Multiple Jurisdictions].
There have been no material business developments since the date of the last interim financial statements, filed on July 15, 2020; copies of which are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
