ABMC Announces The Filing of Form 12b-25

KINDERHOOK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / March 31, 2021 / American Bio Medica Corporation (OTCQB:ABMC), a US-based manufacturer of accurate, cost-effective immunoassay test kits, announced today that it has submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission a Notification of Late Filing with respect to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The Notification states that the 10-K could not be filed by its original due date, March 31, 2021, because ABMC needs additional time to obtain audit confirmations from vendors and customers and complete the review/audit of the Form 10-K with its auditors.

ABMC expects to receive the required confirmations and complete the audit shortly so the Company is in a position to file the Form 10-K on or before April 15, 2021.

Chief Executive Officer Melissa A. Waterhouse stated, “We want to assure our shareholders that the delay in filing our Form 10-K is purely due to delays associated with information required to file the Form 10-K and not the result of any issues in the audit process. Both ABMC and our auditors are working diligently on the Form 10-K and the document will be filed as soon as possible.”
