Explanatory Note: The Current Report on Form 8-K relating to the Items described below was originally filed on June 1, 2020. This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Current Report”) is being filed to add disclosure necessary to comply with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) Order under Section 36 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Granting Exemptions from Specified Provisions of the Exchange Act and Certain Rules Thereunder, SEC Release No. 34-88318, dated March 4, 2020, as modified by SEC Release No. 34-88465, dated March 25, 2020 (the “Order”).
ETF Managers Group Commodity Trust I (the “Trust”) is relying on the relief provided by the Order in connection with its filing of its Current Report on Form 8-K including the audited financial statements of ETF Managers Capital, LLC, the commodity pool operator (the “Sponsor”) of the Trust.
The delay in filing was due to difficulties experienced by the Sponsor and the Sponsor’s auditors as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, impacting the Trust’s ability to file the Current Report by April 30, 2020. The principal offices of the Sponsor and the Sponsor’s auditors are located in New Jersey, which has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak. The precautionary responses have caused limited access to the Sponsor’s facilities and disrupted the normal interactions among the Sponsor’s accounting personnel and other staff and with the Sponsor’s auditors.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
Attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference are the audited (i) Statement of Financial Condition of the Sponsor, the commodity pool operator the Trust, as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, (ii) Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, (iii) Statement of Changes in Member’s Capital for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, and (iv) Statement of Cash Flows for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related notes to such financial statements.
