If AFFU follows the rules this must happen.
AFFU, even as a non-shell company, cannot circumvent the Form 8-K requirement for a reverse merger by filing a Form 12b-25. Here’s how the rules apply:
Form 8-K Requirement:
Any U.S. public company (including pink sheet/OTC companies) must file a Form 8-K within four business days of a material event such as a reverse merger, regardless of whether it is a shell company or not. This is a mandatory disclosure to keep shareholders and the market informed about significant corporate changes.
Form 12b-25 Applicability:
Form 12b-25 is strictly for seeking short extensions on periodic reports like the 10-Q or 10-K when a company cannot file them on time. It does not apply to Form 8-K filings or allow any extension for material event disclosures.
International Considerations:
The SEC’s 8-K deadline applies to all U.S. reporting companies, regardless of where the merger partner is based or what foreign regulators require. Delays in Spain’s disclosure rules do not change or override the U.S. requirement-AFFU must still file the 8-K within four business days of the merger announcement.
Conclusion:
AFFU must file the 8-K within four business days of the reverse merger announcement. Form 12b-25 cannot be used to delay this. Spanish regulatory timelines do not affect the U.S. SEC’s 8-K requirements.
