Item 8.01 — Other Events
SandRidge Energy Inc., (the "Company") will be relying on the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s Order Under Section 36 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Modifying Exemptions From the Reporting and Proxy Delivery Requirements for Public Companies, dated March 25, 2020 (Release No. 34-88465), to extend the deadline by up to 45 days for the filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2020, (the "Form 10-Q") due to the circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, COVID-19 has caused the Company’s headquarters in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma to close due to suggested and mandated stay-at-home orders. In addition, the Company issued a work from home policy to protect its employees and others from potential virus transmission. The office closure and work from home policy have resulted in limited availability of key personnel required to assist in the preparation of the Form 10-Q. The Company is in the process of working on a remote basis to file the Form 10-Q as quickly as possible. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company expects to file the Form 10-Q no later than June 25, 2020 (which is the next business day after 45 days from the Form 10-Q's original filing deadline).
Additionally, the Company supplemented the risk factor disclosure contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2020, for the foregoing matter. The supplemental risk factor was included in Item 8.01 Other Events of the Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 20, 2020, which is incorporated herein by reference.
