What is SEC Form NT 10-Q

SEC Form NT 10-Q is a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing required for companies that will not be able to submit their 10-Q filing (for quarterly financial results) by the SEC deadline or in a timely manner. Mandated by SEC rule 12b-25, Form NT 10-Q requires the registrant's information and explanation of the reason why the 10-Q is delayed. It also provides for application for relief from the deadline.

BREAKING DOWN SEC Form NT 10-Q

SEC Form NT 10-Q is required to be filed within 45 days following the end of each of a company's first three fiscal quarters. If the 10-Q cannot be filed in a timely manner, the company must file a Form 10-QT with the commission. A very common reason for an NT 10-Q is a merger or acquisition, which prevents results from being incorporated in time for the filing. The SEC provides for "unreasonable effort and expense," with a suitable explanation, as part of the application for relief. Late filings may also be because of uncertainty surrounding litigation, due to a company’s auditor not having yet completed its review of the company’s operations, a sign of a company in financial distress, or because a company emerging from bankruptcy needs more time to complete the required disclosures
