ProPhase Labs, Inc. (the “Company”) is unable, without unreasonable effort or expense, to timely file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 (the “Form 10-Q”) due to the additional time required by the Company’s new auditor to review and ensure the accuracy and completeness of the information to be included in the Form 10-Q.

 

The Company expects to file the Form 10-Q no later than within the 5-day extension period provided by Rule 12b-25.

 

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

This filing contains “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, but not limited to, statements regarding the expected timing of filing of its periodic reports. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as: “believe,” “may,” “will,” “potentially,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “could,” “would,” “project,” “plan,” “expect” or the negative or plural of these words or similar expressions. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our beliefs and expectations relating to the filing of the Form 10-Q and the results of the ongoing analysis of our financial statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future results and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and beyond our control. Important factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, a material delay in the Company’s financial reporting, including the possibility that the Company will not be able to file its Form 10-Q within the five-day extension permitted by the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. We disclaim and do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement in this report, except as required by applicable law or regulation.

(Name)   (Area Code)   (Telephone Number)

 

(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If answer is no, identify report(s).
  ☒ Yes   ☐ No
   
(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?
  ☒ Yes   ☐ No
   
  If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

 

On January 16, 2025, ProPhase Labs, Inc. sold its wholly owned subsidiary, Pharmaloz Manufacturing, Inc. (“PMI”), to JL Projects, Inc. for an aggregate deal value of approximately $23.6 million. Due to the Company’s sale of PMI the Company anticipates reporting a change in the results of its operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, on the Form 10-Q. A reasonable estimate of the anticipated change cannot be made at this time because the Company’s auditors require additional time to complete its review of the Company financials and the impact of the PMI sale on the results of operations. Please refer to the Company’s Form 8-K filed on January 23, 2025, for the details of PMI sale.
