State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
Permex Petroleum Corporation (the “Company”) is unable, without unreasonable effort or expense, to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 (the “Q1 Form 10-Q”) within the prescribed time period because a significant delay in the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2022, resulted in the Company’s internal accounting team being delayed in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for the first quarter ended December 31, 2022 to be filed with the Q1 Form 10-Q. The Company expects to file the Q1 Form 10-Q within the 5-day extension period (the “Extension Period”) afforded by Rule 12b-25 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
