Item 8.01 Other Events

On March 4, 2020, pursuant to Section 36 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Release No. 34-88318 (the "Order") granting exemptions to registrants subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act Section 13(a) or 15(d) due to circumstances related to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

Verde Resources Inc. is furnishing this Current Report on Form 8-K to indicate its reliance on the Order in connection with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

The Company's headquarters and operations are located in Hong Kong SAR and Malaysia. Due to the ongoing outbreak of the COVID-19 particularly in Malaysia, the Hong Kong SAR and Malaysia government initiated travel restrictions and mandatory quarantines to control the spread of COVID-19 within Hong Kong SAR, China and Malaysia. First of all, these measurements taken by the government agents have delayed the Company's accounting department in obtaining and complying information which will be included in the Form 10-K. Secondly, it delayed the auditors to perform necessary audit procedures and complete audit report in a timely manner. As a result, the Company will be unable to file the Form 10-K by October 13, 2021.

The Company expects to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K within 45 days after October 13, 2021.
