Yingli Green Energy
Yingli Green Energy has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Form 12b-25 (the Form 12b-25) to extend by fifteen days the due date for filing its annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 (the 2016 Form 20-F).
Yingli is unable to file the 2016 Form 20-F on or before the prescribed due date of May 1, 2017 without unreasonable effort or expense, because the company needs more time to prepare and review its consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 and notes thereto, especially those related to the company's liquidity, debt restructuring and alternative financing plans as previously disclosed by the company in its press release dated April 13, 2017.
Yingli states that it also needs more time to finalize assessment of its internal control over financial reporting and to finalize related disclosures in the Form 20-F. As disclosed in the company's press release dated April 13, 2017, there is substantial doubt as to the company's ability to continue as a going concern and the Company expects to disclose the same in the Form 20-F.
The company's management expects that the 2016 Form 20-F will be filed on or before May 16, 2017.
