Item 1.01 Entry into Material Definitive Agreement. 

The information contained in Item 2.01 is incorporated herein by reference. In addition, Katy Industries, Inc. (the “Company” or “Katy”) entered into the Seventh Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Bank of America Business Capital (the “Bank of America Credit Agreement”) dated as of November 27, 2006. The Bank of America Credit Agreement is a $110.0 million facility with a $20.0 million term loan (“Term Loan”) and a $90.0 million revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility”). The Company obtained this amendment in anticipation and approval of the event described in Item 2.01. Effective immediately, the amendment will remove the minimum availability requirements. The Company will also be required to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Bank of America Credit Agreement) of 1.1:1, beginning for the fourth quarter of 2006. The Leverage Ratio will continue to be excluded as a financial covenant. Following the fourth quarter of 2006, the Leverage Ratio will be utilized to determine the interest rate margin over the applicable LIBOR rate. In addition, the current Term Loan, outstanding as of the amendment date of $11.6 million, was increased to $13.0 million. The increase in Term Loan will reduce the Revolving Credit Facility balance by a corresponding amount. The annual amortization, paid quarterly, will be $1.5 million, beginning April 1, 2007.

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets. 

On November 27, 2006, the Company sold its United Kingdom consumer plastics business (excluding the related real estate holdings) to Jardin International Holding BV (“Jardin”) for approximately $4.0 million, subject to a post-closing adjustment based on working capital. The description of the definitive share purchase agreement set forth above is qualified in its entirety by the full text of that agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated by reference. The sale of the Company’s United Kingdom consumer plastics business to Jardin occurred simultaneously with the execution of the definitive agreement, which contained customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification agreements. The United Kingdom consumer plastics business of Katy manufactures and distributes a variety of home and consumer storage products principally under the CONTICO brand name. These products are sold through major home improvement and mass market retail outlets. The operations are located in Redruth, England.

In conjunction with the above disposition, the Company has begun to market its United Kingdom real estate holdings to a third party. The real estate holdings held the operations of the United Kingdom consumer plastics business. At September 30, 2006, the assets and liabilities of these operations were classified as asset held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet of the Company. In addition, the Company recognized a $3.2 million impairment charge upon the classification as the asset held for sale in the consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On November 27, 2006, the Company issued a press release announcing the completion of the sale of its United Kingdom consumer plastics business (excluding the related real estate holdings) to Jardin as described in item 2.01. The information, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, in this Current Report, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of the Section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filings.

Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.

(b)  
Pro Forma Financial Information.

The following unaudited pro forma financial information is presented to give effect to the disposition of the United Kingdom consumer plastics business. The unaudited pro forma balance sheet as of September 30, 2006 is based on the historical statements of the Company as of September 30, 2006 after giving effect to the disposition as if it had occurred on September 30, 2006. The unaudited pro forma statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 are based on the historical financial statements of the Company for such periods after giving effect to the disposition of the United Kingdom consumer plastics business as if it had occurred on January 1, 2003.
 
 
The unaudited pro forma financial information should be read in conjunction with the Company’s historical Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto contained in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on March 31, 2006, and the Company’s Third Quarter Form 10-Q, filed November 14, 2006.

For purposes of preparing these pro forma financial statements, the Company has made adjustments based on assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances as of the date of this filing. However, actual adjustments may differ materially from the information presented. The unaudited pro forma financial information presented is for informational purposes only. It is not intended to represent or be indicative of the consolidated results of operations or financial position that would have occurred had the sale been completed as of the dates presented nor is it intended to be indicative of future results of operations or financial position.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information

1.  Basis of Presentation

The historical financial statements represent the consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations derived from the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the years ending December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2006.

The accompanying financial information has been presented to give effect to the disposition of the United Kingdom consumer plastics business. The unaudited pro forma balance sheet as of September 30, 2006 is based on the historical statements of the Company as of September 30, 2006 after giving effect to the disposition as if it had occurred on September 30, 2006. The unaudited pro forma statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 are based on the historical financial statements of the Company for such periods after giving effect to the disposition of the United Kingdom consumer plastics business as if it had occurred on January 1, 2003.

2.  Transaction

The expected proceeds to be received, net of closing costs, for the United Kingdom consumer plastics business is approximately $8.7 million. This includes the expected consideration to be received on the sale of real estate holdings to a third party within a short period after closing. Based on these proceeds and, after taking into account transaction costs and expenses of approximately $0.6 million, the Company expects to incur a pre-tax loss of approximately $3.2 million.
 
3.  Discontinued Operations and Pro Forma Adjustments

The discontinued operations and pro forma adjustments are described below:

(a)  
On June 2, 2006, the Company sold certain assets of the Metal Truck Box business unit. In addition, on June 27, 2006, the Company sold its limited partnership interest in a waste-to-energy facility (“SESCO”). Management and the board of directors determined that these businesses were not a core component of the Company’s long-term business strategy. For the pro forma statements of operations for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, the Company separately adjusted the historical statements of operations as the Metal Truck Box business unit and SESCO were included in continuing operations. The historical operating results of these previously divested businesses have been excluded as they will be classified as discontinued operations. For the pro forma statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, these businesses were previously excluded from continuing operations; thus, no adjustment was required.
(b)  
Amounts represent the receipt of gross proceeds of $9.3 million used to pay down the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan. This pay down was required in the Bank of America Credit Agreement, but does not reduce the Company’s overall borrowing capacity. The application of proceeds between the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan does not reflect the Seventh Amendment to the Bank of America Credit Agreement. This amendment will allow the Term Loan to be reloaded up to $13.0 million, upon its effective date, with the Revolving Credit Facility being reduced by a corresponding amount.
(c)  
Amounts represent the historical account balances of the United Kingdom consumer plastics business, net of intercompany account balances prior to closing.
(d)  
Amount represents the transactional closing costs incurred.
(e)  
Amounts represent the historical account activity of the United Kingdom consumer plastics business, net of intercompany activity.
(f)  
Amounts relate to the interest expense reduction as a result of the use of the above proceeds. The interest rates applied were consistent with the terms of the Bank of America Credit Agreement.
(g)  
Amounts represent the anticipated income tax effects associated with the operations, primarily resulting from United Kingdom taxes.
