PART III – NARRATIVE
BankGuam Holding Company (the “Company”) is unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2017 by the prescribed filing deadline (November 14, 2017) without unreasonable effort and expense, as explained below. The Company expects to complete and file the Form 10-Q on or before November 20, 2017.
The Company has determined that additional time is needed to file its Quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, because the Company is still completing its analysis of the allowance for loan and lease losses and more specifically, the allocation of the allowance to impaired loans.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Form contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements. These include, among other things, statements regarding the Company’s future operations, financial condition and prospects, and business strategies. Forward-looking statements may be preceded by, followed by or include the words “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “will,” “is designed to” and similar expressions. The Company based these forward-looking statements on its expectations and projections about future events at the time when they were made. The Company cautions investors not to place undue reliance on these statements because they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond the control of the Company. These risks, uncertainties and other factors may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from the anticipated future results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in “Risk Factors” in filings we make from time to time with the SEC, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. The Company undertakes no duty, and specifically disclaims any duty, to update or revise any forward-looking statements in this press release, except as required by applicable law.
