TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / December 24, 2020 / Mongolia Growth Group Ltd. (TSXV:YAK)(OTC PINK:MNGGF) ("MGG") or ("the Company") a commercial real estate investment company participating in the Mongolian economy believes that it is prudent to update shareholders on the current Coronavirus situation in Mongolia.
Starting in February of 2020, the Government of Mongolia undertook extra-ordinary measures in order to combat the spread of Coronavirus within Mongolia, which has dramatically impacted our revenues, with a trough in revenues during the month of March. Over the summer and until mid-November, certain restrictions were eased and we experienced a gradual recovery in rental and third party agency revenues. During late November, the Government has once again increased restrictions to combat Coronavirus, including mandatory lock-downs that have now been extended until at least January 6, 2021.
While we cannot quantify the overall impact at this time, we anticipate that our fourth quarter revenue will decline materially from third quarter levels. Such reduced revenue levels are expected to continue until at least January 2021, with a resulting increase in operating losses for the Company.
MGG intends to closely monitor the situation and will issue future updates as necessary.
As of November 30, 2020, MGG had in excess of CDN $9 million in cash and net marketable securities and no outstanding debt. The Company believes it has sufficient liquidity to sustain increased operating losses for the foreseeable future.
