The undersigned registrant hereby amends its Form 8-K filed on June 30, 2004, to correct an error in connection with such filing. The June 1, 2004 press release was inadvertently attached to the Form 8-K rather than the June 30, 2004, press release. The June 30, 2004 press release is attached hereto.
Item 5. Other Events and Regulation FD Disclosure
On June 30, 2004, Astec Industries, Inc. issued the press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 announcing that it has completed the previously announced sale and transfer of substantially all of the assets and substantially all of the liabilities of Superior Industries of Morris, Inc., and such press release is incorporated in its entirety by reference herein.
Under the terms of the agreement, the purchase price for the assets and liabilities of Superior was approximately $24.3 million, which amount is subject to post-closing adjustment based on the performance of Superior in the second quarter. The transaction will be discussed in the second quarter earnings conference call tentatively scheduled for July 21, 2004.
Certain statements in the press release are "forward-looking statements" (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). These forward-looking statements reflect management's current expectations and are based upon currently available information, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise such statements. These statements are not guarantees of performance and are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which cannot be predicted or anticipated. Future events and actual results, financial or otherwise, could differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause future events or actual results to differ materially include the factors listed from time to time in the Company's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including but not limited to the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 and the Company's quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2004.
