On July 15, 2013, Furmanite America, Inc. (“Furmanite America”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Furmanite Corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (“APA”) to acquire certain assets, including working capital, equipment and intangible assets, all of which relate to operations in the Americas, of the Engineering and Construction segment (“ENG E&C”) of ENGlobal Corporation (the “Seller”). The current employees within these operations, totaling approximately 900 full-time professionals, will transition to Furmanite America in connection with this transaction. The transaction is expected to be completed within 60 days from the date of the execution of the APA. Upon closing, Furmanite America will make a cash payment estimated at approximately $18.0 million for the acquired net working capital, net of reserves. The working capital payment is subject to adjustment for working capital changes through the effective date, as defined in the APA. In addition, Furmanite America will enter into a four year 4% interest per annum promissory note with the Seller in the principal amount of $3.5 million. In connection with the acquisition, the Company expects to borrow an additional $18.0 million on its existing revolving credit facility.

As previously announced, Furmanite America also purchased from the Seller its Inspection Services Division, with assets totaling $3.0 million, effective January 1, 2013. Furmanite America paid $1.0 million cash, entered into a four year 5.0% interest per annum promissory note to the Seller totaling $1.9 million, and assumed $0.1 million of liabilities in connection with the Inspection Services Division acquisition.

On July 16, 2013, the Company issued a press release announcing the signing of the APA. A copy of the press release is included as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.

All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this Report, including, but not limited to, statements regarding the expected completion of the APA, the anticipated working capital payment, and the Company’s expected borrowings under its existing revolving credit facility, are forward-looking statements.

The Company bases its forward-looking statements on reasonable beliefs and assumptions, current expectations, estimates and projections about itself and its industry. The Company cautions that these statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks and uncertainties that cannot be predicted. In addition, the Company based many of these forward-looking statements on assumptions about future events that may prove to be inaccurate and actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. One is cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements, which speak only as of the date of this Report. Unless otherwise required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or circumstances, or otherwise.
