Notice of the Form 12b-25 for late filing of Form 20-F

 

Tarena International, Inc. ("the Registrant" or "Tarena") reports that it has filed a Form 12b-25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 30, 2019 for late filing of its annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018. The Registrant cannot file its annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2018 by the prescribed filing deadline of April 30, 2019 without unreasonable effort or expense because (i) the Registrant is unable to finish preparing its financial statements for the periods to be included in the annual report by the prescribed filing deadline; and (ii) the independent audit committee of the Registrant’s board of directors is conducting a review of certain issues identified during the course of the audit of the Registrant’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, including issues related to the Registrant's revenue recognition. The Registrant expects that its historical disclosure of unaudited financial results for each quarter and full year of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 may need to be restated and should not be relied upon, pending the completion of its audited financial statements and the review conducted by its independent audit committee.

 

The Registrant expects to file its annual report on Form 20-F once the financial statements for inclusion therein become available and the independent audit committee's review is completed.
