Form 8-K Summary

Registrant: WeTrade Group Inc. The request metadata identifies Next Technology Holding Inc., but the filing names WeTrade Group Inc. as the registrant. Report date: May 19, 2020. Item: 8.01, Other Events.

Business Context and Reporting Period

The company’s business is located in China and includes graphite products operations, with primarily domestic customers. This filing addresses the company’s inability to timely file its Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Financial and Operating Metrics

  • The filing does not provide revenue, profit, cash flow, margin, debt, liquidity, or other quantified financial results.
  • The company temporarily closed offices and had employees work remotely during February and March 2020. Operations began resuming in April 2020.

Material Changes and Filing Extension

COVID-19-related office closures and insufficient time for internal and external review prevented completion of the March 31, 2020 Form 10-Q by its original deadline. Under SEC Release Nos. 34-88318 and 34-88465, the company stated that it would file the Quarterly Report within 45 calendar days of the required date, no later than June 29, 2020. The company would evaluate whether an additional Rule 12b-25 extension was needed.
