20-F FILING FROM THE NYSE</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">Guadalajara, Jalisco, May 22, 2020, Grupo Simec, S.A.B. de C.V.
(the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;) announces that on May 18, 2020, as a result of its failure to timely file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (&ldquo;SEC&rdquo;) its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 (the &ldquo;Form 20-F&rdquo;),
it received a notice from the NYSE American LLC (the &ldquo;NYSE&rdquo; or the &ldquo;Exchange&rdquo;) stating that the Company
is not in compliance with the NYSE continued listing standards. The letter from the NYSE also notes that, as a result, the Company
is now subject to the procedures and requirements set forth in Section 1007 of the NYSE American Company Guide.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">As previously disclosed by the Company in its Form 12b-25 filed
with the SEC on May 1, 2020, the Company was unable to file its Form 20-F by its original deadline without unreasonable effort
or expense due to the fact that the Company&rsquo;s preparation of the financial information in the annual report for inclusion
in Form 20-F has not been completed due to the overall delay in operations caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company is still
working to complete certain disclosure regarding the financial information in the Form 20-F and expects that it will file the Form
20-F by August 15, 2020. However, the timing of the filing is uncertain at this moment, and this projected filing date could change.
The NYSE informed the Company that, under the Exchange rules, the Company will have six months from May 18, 2020, to file the Form
20-F with the SEC in order to cure the noncompliance.</P>
