PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

Suntron Corporation. (the “Registrant”) requires additional time to finalize and review its Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 (the “Report”). The Registrant is unable to complete and file its Report within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense. The Report could not be filed within the prescribed time period because the Registrant and the senior lenders under its secured credit facility entered into an amendment to the credit facility on March 29, 2005. The amendment to the credit facility requires modification to the disclosure in the Report. Accordingly, the Registrant needs additional time to complete the disclosures in the Report.

The Registrant expects to file the Report within the next few days and in no event later than the fifteenth calendar day following the date on which the Report was due.

If the answer is no, identify report(s).

þ Yes       o No           

(3)   Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?

þ Yes       o No
