Explanatory Note

This Form 8-K/A amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on September 26, 2014 (the “Initial Form 8-K”) to provide the financial statement information referred to in parts (a) and (b) of Item 9.01 below relating to our recently completed acquisition from Peter Wolters GmbH (the “Seller”) of certain assets and the assumption of certain liabilities associated with a product line of grinding machine systems and applications marketed and sold by Seller under the Voumard brand (the “Voumard Business”). Except as otherwise noted, this Form 8-K/A does not modify or update the Initial Form 8-K or the disclosures set forth therein or otherwise reflect events occurring after the filing thereof.

The Company is filing this report in order to make available (i) the audited abbreviated financial statements of the Voumard Business as of December 31, 2013 and for the year then ended, the unaudited abbreviated financial statements of the Voumard Business as of and for six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, and (ii) the pro forma financial information of the Company as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and the year ended December 31, 2013, which give effect to the acquisition on the basis described therein. The foregoing abbreviated financial information, which is attached hereto as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, is being provided in lieu of the financial information otherwise required by Item 9.01 of Form 8-K, as it is not practical to obtain the Item 9.01 information related to the Voumard Business.
