ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0This late filing is not a result of willful neglect but is a mistake. Daniel Bartleson, the Board Secretary's lack of experience caused him to calculate the due date incorrectly, mistaking it for December 15, 2025. He has obtained qualified support for keeping the books and making all future deadlines.
