Explanatory Note
This Amendment No. 2 on Form 10-Q/A (the “Amendment”) amends the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of BioNexus Gene Lab Corp. (the “Company”) for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2023 as amended (the “Original Filings”). This Amendment is being filed solely to amend and restate in its entirety Part 1., Item 4 Controls and Procedures of the Original Filings.
This filing is in response to a Comment Letter from the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Other than as expressly set forth herein, this Amendment does not, and does not purport to, amend, update or restate the information in the Original Filings or reflect any events that have occurred after the Original Filings was made. Information not affected by this Amendment remains unchanged and reflects the disclosures made at the time as of which the Original Filings was made. No changes have been made to the financial statements of the Company as contained in the Original Filings. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read together with the Original Filings and the Company’s other filings with the SEC.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In connection with the preparation of this quarterly report, an evaluation was carried out by the Company’s management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(c) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act (“Exchange Act”) as of September 30, 2023. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management concluded, as of the end of the period covered by this report, that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in recording, processing, summarizing, and reporting information required to be disclosed, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information was accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the fact in Part I., Item 4 Controls and Procedures in the Original Filing, the Company stated that the controls and procedures were “capable,” which terminology is not in compliance with Item 307 of Regulation S-K.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
During the period ended September 30, 2023, there had been no change in internal control over financial reporting that had materially affected or was reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
