New Frontier Health Corporation Receives NYSE Notice Regarding Late Form 20-F Filing

New Frontier Health Corporation (NYSE:NFH) today announced that, as expected, on May 18, 2021 it received a notice from the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") that the Company was not in compliance with the NYSE's continued listing requirements under the timely filing criteria established in Section 802.01E of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, because the Company did not timely file its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 (its "Form 20-F") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on or prior to the due date thereof or by the extended filing due date provided by Rule 12b-25. The NYSE informed the Company that, under the NYSE's rules, the Company has six months from April 30, 2021 to file its Form 20-F with the SEC.

As previously disclosed by the Company in its Form 12b-25 filed with the SEC on April 30, 2021, as a result of the April 12, 2021 statement (the "SEC Statement") released by the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the accounting and reporting considerations for warrants issued by special purpose acquisition companies ("SPACs") and former SPACs, like the Company, the Company needs more time to incorporate the revised accounting treatment required by the SEC Statement for its warrants in its financial statements in the Form 20-F.

The Company continues to work diligently to complete its audit and Form 20-F and currently anticipates that the Form 20-F will be filed as soon as practicable.
