SHENZHEN, China, April 10, 2021 — TD Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: GLG) (the "Company"), a commodities trading service provider in China, today announced that it has received a Notice from the NASDAQ Stock Market on April 5, 2021 notifying the Company that, because its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 (the "2020 10-K") was not filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the required due date of March 31, 2021, the Company is therefore not in compliance with the periodic filing requirements for continued listing set forth in NASDAQ Listing Rule 5250(c)(1).
This Notice received has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s shares. As previously disclosed on the Company’s Form 8-K and 8-K/A filed on March 29 and March 31, 2021, respectively, the Company’s audit committee, after consultation with the Company’s management concluded, that the Company’s audited financial statements at and for the periods ended March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020, and September 30, 2020 contained in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q should no longer be relied upon. Nasdaq has provided the Company with 60 calendar days, until June 4, 2021 to submit a plan to regain compliance. The compliance plan is required to provide a summary of the independent investigation into the reasons that led to the Company’s conclusion that the previously filed financials should no longer be relied upon. If Nasdaq accepts the Company’s plan, then Nasdaq may grant the Company up to 180 days from the prescribed due date for the filing of the 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, or September 27, 2021, to regain compliance.
The Company expects and intends to submit to NASDAQ the compliance plan by June 4, 2021.
This announcement is made in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b), which requires prompt disclosure of receipt of a deficiency notification.
