Section 8 Other Events

 

Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

RenovaCare, Inc. (the ‘Company”) will be relying on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Release No. 34-88318 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 to delay the filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.

 

The Company’s headquarters and outside financial consultant are located in New Jersey. The Company’s outside legal counsel and independent registered public company accounting firm are located in New York, New York. The governors of New York and New Jersey have announced statewide stay at home orders in attempt to prevent the further spread of COVID-19 in their respective states. Construction was stopped on the Company’s new offices in New Jersey due to Federal and State restrictions, so the Company has not had the ability to easily manage work during this time period. Furthermore, the offices of many of the Company’s other advisors related to the subject matter of the Company’s Form 10-K are subject to government mandate, closed. This has, in turn, delayed the Company’s ability to complete its audit.

 

Subject to continued compliance with government mandates regarding the corona virus pandemic, the Company estimates that it may be able to file the Form 10-Q by June 15, 2020.

 

In light of the current COVID-19 pandemic, the Company will be including the following Risk Factor in its Report on Form 10-Q:

 

At this time it is not possible to fully assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operations and capital requirements.  Should the COVID-19 pandemic continue, it may adversely affect the Company’s ability to (i) retain employees and consultants, (ii) obtain additional financing on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all, (iii) delay regulatory submissions and approvals, (iv) delay, limit or preclude the Company from securing clinical study sites; and (iv) preclude or delay entry into joint venture or partnership arrangements. The occurrence of any one or more of such events may affect the Company’s ability to continue on its pathway to commercialization of its CellMist™ System.

 

The reason the Form 10-Q cannot be filed timely does not relate to the inability of any person, other than the Company, to furnish any required opinion, report, or certification.

 

The Company's priority and commitment, at this point, is to ensure the health and security of its team members, their families and its partners, while continuing to advance its technology and business during this unprecedented event.
