First Choice Healthcare Solutions Announces Brief Filing Extension for 10-K

2016 Year-End Results to be Released Tomorrow, Monday, April 3, 2017; Conference Call and Webcast to Follow Same Afternoon

/EINPresswire.com/ -- MELBOURNE, FL--(Marketwired - Apr 2, 2017) - First Choice Healthcare Solutions, Inc. (OTCQB: FCHS) ("FCHS," "First Choice" or the "Company"), one of the nation's only non-physician-owned, publicly traded healthcare services companies focused on the delivery of total musculoskeletal solutions with an emphasis on Orthopaedics and Spine care, today announced that the Company elected to file a Form 12b-25 Notification of Late Filing with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission on Friday evening, March 31, 2017, disclosing that the Company was unable to timely file its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. Later that same evening, the Company's filing agent inadvertently filed an internal draft of the Company's 10-K with the SEC. As a consequence, the Company will be filing an amended 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2016 and announce the related results tomorrow, Monday, April 3, 2017, prior to the market opening.

Chris Romandetti, Chairman, President and CEO of First Choice, stated, "I take full responsibility for this debacle and the inability to file our 10-K in a timely manner. It is my intention to commit additional resources to our Company's filing preparation process, as required, following a proper and thorough review of our current protocols. Our efforts did not measure up to the high standards that our shareholders have come to expect from us, and the even higher standards to which I hold myself."

First Choice will follow the release of its 2016 year-end results with a conference call and webcast for the investment community on Monday afternoon beginning at 1:30 PM Eastern Time to discuss the results and recent corporate developments. Romandetti will be joined by Tim Skeldon, the Company's CFO, to host the call.

Participants can register and access the conference call by dialing toll-free 866-682-6100 (for U.S. and Canada dial-in) or 862-255-5401 (for international dial-in). The conference call will also be webcasted, which will be accessible through First Choice's investor relations website on Monday morning by navigating to http://ir.myfchs.com/ and clicking on "2016 Year-End Conference Call and Webcast." Participants will be required to register to access the call. For those who cannot listen to the live broadcast, a replay will be available shortly after the call on the investor relations page of First Choice's website, found at http://ir.myfchs.com/.
