PART III — NARRATIVE

 

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

 

Cemtrex, Inc. (the “Company”) is unable to timely file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) its Annual Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended December 31, 2019, because the compilation, dissemination, review and finalization of the information required to be presented in the report could not be completed within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense.

 

On January 14, 2020 the Company filed its 10-K, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013. The late start to the review and compilation of the financial statements for the three months ended December 31, 2019, along with the acclimatization of new critical members of the accounting department has delayed the compilation of these financial statements and delayed review by our independent auditors.

If answer is no, identify report(s). Yes [X] No[  ]

 

(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?
Yes [X] No [  ]

 

If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

 

For the three months ended December 31, 2019, the Company estimates an operating income of $213,843 and a comprehensive loss of $344,496, compared to an operating loss of $1,526,492 and a comprehensive loss of $3,991,630, during the three months ended December 31, 2018.
