CONTENTS
Inability to timely file Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the “Form 20-F”) due to circumstances
related to COVID-19
Tikcro Technologies Ltd. (the “Company”) will be unable to file its Form 20-F by the original deadline of April 30, 2020, due to
circumstances related to COVID-19. The Company has been following the guidelines of the Israeli government to minimize the risk of exposure of
its team members to the novel coronavirus. As a result, the Company’s personnel, advisors and contractors have been working remotely
since the outbreak began in Israel, and we were unable to adequately coordinate and complete matters pertaining to the Form 20-F in a timely manner.
On March 25, 2020, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission issued an order under Section 36 (Release No. 34-88465) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which provides conditional relief to public companies that are unable to timely comply with their filing obligations as a result of the novel coronavirus outbreak (the “SEC Order”). The Company is
relying on the SEC Order to extend the filing date of the Form 20-F and estimates that it will be able to file the Form 20-F on or about June 1, 2020, which is within the additional 45-day period from the original due date provided for in the SEC
Order.
In light of the current COVID-19 pandemic, the Company provides the following risk factor explaining the impact of COVID-19 on its
operations:
The COVID-19 pandemic may materially affect our company.
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic is affecting global
economies and may affect our operations. It is causing disruptions for significantly all of our business partners, suppliers, contractors and advisors. Additionally, while the potential economic impact caused by, and the duration of, the COVID-19
pandemic are difficult to assess or predict, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global financial markets may change the demand and business priorities in major industries, and it may reduce our ability to access capital, which could
negatively impact our long-term liquidity. The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. We do not yet know the full extent of potential impacts on our operations, financing and reporting. However, these
effects could have a material impact on our liquidity and capital resources, as well as on our ability to report timely to our investors.
