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.
Natural Gas Services Group, Inc. (the “Company”) is unable to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort and expense. The Company expects to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K on or before the fifteenth calendar day extension provided under Rule 12b-25.
The Company determined that a number of compressor “make-ready” jobs, as well as various other compressor maintenance jobs, were not recorded properly. As a result, the Company will record additional operating costs and expenses of approximately $1.14 million and $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 and the nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. None of these costs and expenses impact the Company’s liquidity position.
In consultation with the Company’s audit committee and independent auditors, the Company requires the additional time to make revisions to its prior period financial statements and prepare disclosures pertaining to these revisions which will be presented in its Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2019. The Company believes that the revisions do not warrant a restatement of the previously filed financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 or the interim periods previously reported for the fiscal year ended December 31. 2019.
This Form 12b-25 may contain certain forward-looking statements (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) and information relating to the Company that is based on the beliefs of the management of the Company. The Company’s expectations regarding the timing of the filing of the Annual Report, the revisions and other matters set forth above are forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Because the matters described above have not been finalized, the actual results and final revisions may materially differ from those contemplated by the statements contained in this Form 12b-25.
