Section 8 – Other Events

Item 8.01 Other Events 

(a)Pursuant to SEC Release No. 34-88465 (March 25, 2020) (the “Order”), Registrant is currently unable to complete and file its Form 10-K Annual Report on a timely basis as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its business and operations. As required by the Order: 

(b)(1) Registrant is relying on the Order in filing this Report and taking the actions stated; 

(2)  Registrant’s primary business operations, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Elite Beverage International, consist of producing and marketing one-of-a-kind sports beverages. As a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States, the social distancing limitations placed on staff members, its distributors and customers, has significantly affected the ability of Registrant to continue its operations while completing the work necessary to complete the audit of its financial affairs and to complete and file the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 on a timely basis;

(3)   Registrant estimates that it will file the Form 10-K report on or before June 30, 2020;

(4)  The risk factors related to the impact of COVID-19 on Registrant’s business are:

Production and marketing of Elite Beverages’ sports beverages have been significantly affected due to the social distancing requirements mandated by the federal and state governments where Elite’s operations occur.  For some businesses, like Elite, much of the production and marketing of its core products cannot always be done through “virtual” means, and even when this is possible, it requires significant capital and time to achieve.  If Registrant is unable to meet the demand for its products due to limited capital or limited staff because of social distancing, its ability to expand its business and market will be at risk.

(5)  Not applicable
