Explanatory Note

We are filing this Form 10-K/A to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2010 as originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 15, 2010. The sole purpose of this Form 10-K/A is to include a note describing two (2) subsequent events, both of which occurred on December 10, 2010 as reported on Form 8-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 14, 2010.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

14. Subsequent Events

On December 10, 2010, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, TWF Acquisition, LLC (“TWF Acquisition”), SIFCO completed the purchase of the forging business and substantially all related operating assets from T&W Forge, Inc. (“TWF”). The forging business is operated in TWF’s Alliance, Ohio facility. The purchase price for the forging business and related operating assets is $23.6 million payable in cash, subject to certain adjustments related principally to the delivered working capital level and/or escrow provisions under the Purchase Agreement. In addition, SIFCO has assumed the current operating liabilities of the forging business. The foregoing description of the acquisition transaction does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Asset Purchase Agreement.

Effective December 10, 2010, SIFCO also entered into a five (5) year revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Fifth Third Bank in the maximum amount of $30.0 million secured by substantially all the assets of the Company and its U.S. subsidiaries and a pledge of 65% of the stock of its non-U.S. subsidiaries. Borrowing under the Credit Agreement (i) bears interest at a rate equal to Libor plus 0.75% to 1.75%, which % fluctuates based on the Company’s leverage ratio of outstanding indebtedness to EBITDA, and (ii) is subject to certain customary financial covenants including, without limitation, covenants that require the Company to not exceed a maximum leverage ratio and to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. At closing the interest rate was Libor plus 1.00% with a commitment fee ranging from 0.10% to 0.25% to be incurred on the unused balance. The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit and Security Agreement.
