Subsequent Events:

 

On October 2, 2023, the Company purchased CTB for cash of $37.8 million.  CTB, headquartered in Conway, Arkansas, services the transportation, agricultural, commercial furniture and data center construction industries with fabricated tube and bar products, including round, square, rectangular and special shaped tubes, and offers a range of value-added fabrication services, including contract manufacturing, tube laser cutting, tube bending, robotic welding, flat laser burning and brake press forming.  The acquisition will be accounted for as a business combination and the assets and liabilities valued at fair market value.  CTB's results will be included in the Company's tubular and pipe products segment from the acquisition date.  

 

In connection with the CTB acquisition, the Company entered into a Seventh Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement.  The amendment allows the Company to include the eligible assets of CTB in its borrowing base.
