ITEM 7.01 REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.
On October 18, 2017, ALR Technologies Inc. (the “Company”) issued a Form 8K noting that the Company provided the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) with a letter of intention to correct its reporting deficiencies by January 26, 2018. To date the Company has filed its 2015 10K, its three 2016 10Qs and is currently undergoing its year-ended December 31, 2016 financial statement audit. To remedy its reporting deficiencies, the Company must file its 2016 10K and 2017 10Qs, which requires an extension from its original timeline. The Company has issued the SEC with an updated letter of intention to extend the period to correct its reporting deficiencies on or before February 28, 2018. The Company expects to file its 2016 10K on or before February 2, 2018.
