K Wave Media Ltd. has filed a Form 12b-25, notifying investors that it will be late in submitting its Form 20-F (Yearly Report) for the financial year ended December 31, 2025. The delay specifically affects its annual report filing, which is required for foreign issuers on U.S. exchanges and typically contains audited financial statements and detailed business discussions.
Management says the report cannot be completed on time without unreasonable effort or expense, mainly because the company needs more time to finish its year-end close and financial statement preparation. Key areas still under review include the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, the finalization of significant impairment tests, and disclosures around a probable sale of a material subsidiary.
K Wave Media expects to file the Form 20-F (Yearly Report) within the standard 15-calendar-day extension window allowed under SEC rules, suggesting investors should see the full annual report shortly after the original due date. The company also confirmed that all other required periodic filings over the past 12 months have been made on time, limiting concerns about a broader pattern of non-compliance.
The company does not currently anticipate any significant change in its results of operations versus the prior year, according to the notification. However, investors should note that the final impacts of impairment assessments and the potential subsidiary disposition could still affect specific line items, making the forthcoming report important for a clearer financial picture.
K Wave Media indicates it is continuing to work through its financial reporting process and related disclosures in coordination with its auditors and advisors. The notification is signed on behalf of the company by Chief Executive Officer Ted Kim on April 30, 2026, underscoring management’s formal commitment to complete the filing within the allowed extension and remain in compliance with SEC requirements.
