Other Events.

Consumer Capital Group, Inc. (the “Company”) will be relying on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Order under Section 36 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Granting Exemptions From Specified Provisions of the Exchange Act and Certain Rules Thereunder dated March 4, 2020 (Release No. 34-88318), as modified on March 25, 2020 (Release No. 34-88465) (together, the “Order”) to delay the filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the “Report”) due to the circumstances related to COVID-19.

The Company’s business operations are conducted in China and beginning in late January 2020, its subsidiaries located in Beijing, Tianjin and Guangzhou have suspended operations due to the severe restrictions on travel and movement that have been imposed throughout China due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Due to these developments, the Company has not been able to generate revenues from operations nor otherwise complete any financing transactions during the first quarter of fiscal 2020. This has resulted in a significant decrease in the Company’s liquidity and has impaired its ability to pay its third-party service providers, such as attorneys. In addition, as previously reported on February 7, 2020, the Company has been seeking to retain a new Chief Financial Officer and that process has been delayed due to the travel and movement restrictions imposed due to the COVID-19 outbreak.

As a result of these circumstances, the Company’s staff and professional advisors have not been able to complete the financial statements for December 31, 2019 nor prepare the Report and will not be able do so until after March 30, 2020. The Company will work diligently to comply with the conditions of the Order and to file the Report prior to the end of the 45-day extension period. At this time, management believes that it will need the entire available extension period to complete the financial statements and file the Report.

In addition, in light of the current COVID-19 pandemic, the Company will be including the following Risk Factor into its Report:

Our business operations have been and may continue to be materially and adversely affected by the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19)

An outbreak of respiratory illness caused by COVID-19 emerged in Wuhan city, Hubei province, PRC, in late 2019 and has been expanding within the PRC and globally. The new strain of COVID-19 is considered to be highly contagious and poses a serious public health threat. Beginning in late January 2020, the PRC government announced a number of significant travel and movement restrictions throughout PRC in an effort to contain the COVID-19 outbreak. The World Health Organization (the “WHO”) is closely monitoring and evaluating the situation and in March 2020, the WHO declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a pandemic, expanding its assessment of the threat beyond the global health emergency it had announced in January.

Any outbreak of such an epidemic or other adverse public health developments in the PRC or elsewhere in the world may materially and adversely affect the PRC economy, our markets and our business. In the first quarter of 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak, and the measures adopted by the PRC to contain it, has caused significant disruptions in our operations, including the suspension of business operations, which have resulted in our inability to generate revenues from our products and services. The severity of this impact on our business will increase as the period of disruption continues. We cannot foresee whether the outbreak of COVID-19 will be effectively contained, nor can we predict the severity and duration of its impact. If the outbreak of COVID-19 is not effectively and timely controlled, our business operations and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected as a result of the deteriorating market outlook for consumer activity, the slowdown in regional and national economic growth, weakened liquidity and financial condition of our company and of our customers, or other factors that we cannot foresee. Any of these factors and other factors beyond our control could have an adverse effect on the overall business environment, cause uncertainties in the regions where we conduct business, cause our business to suffer in ways that we cannot predict and materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
