Item 8.01.
Other Events.

Thermon Heat Tracing Services - I, Inc., a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of the Company, acquired 100% of the equity interests of Industrial Process Insulators, Inc. ("IPI"), effective July 31, 2015 (the "Transaction"). IPI, headquartered in Port Neches, Texas, provides insulation applications for industrial piping, equipment and tanks as well as the installation of instrument tubing, steam tracing and pre-insulated tubing.

The consideration paid was $21,750,000 in cash at the closing of the Transaction (the "Closing"), subject to customary working capital adjustments, which was funded using a combination of cash on hand and borrowing under the Company’s revolving credit facility. The purchase price implies a multiple of approximately 6x IPI’s unaudited TTM EBITDA (as adjusted to exclude certain compensation paid to the former equity owners of IPI that is not expected to recur).

A copy of the press release issued by the Company regarding the Transaction on August 5, 2015 is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
