Item 7.01    Regulation FD Disclosure.    

On January 14, 2015, the Company became aware of certain erroneous statements made in an analyst report dated January 13, 2015.

More specifically, the analyst report stated that a distributor survey conducted by the analyst revealed the intention of one of CIRCOR’s major (top 10) distribution partners to switch from selling CIRCOR’s KF branded valves to a cheaper private competitor as of January 1, 2015. The report further estimated 2014 revenue associated with this distributor to be approximately $20 million and that information from the distributor suggests that CIRCOR product is priced at a 5%-30% premium relative to the alternate supplier.

The Company has reviewed the current status of its distributor relationships associated with the KF brand, believes that it maintains strong relationships with its major distributors and is unaware of any intended material changes. In addition, the Company regularly reviews its pricing and believes its KF brand to be competitively priced in those markets it regularly serves.
