Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation Explores Financing Alternatives

Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation (NYSE: AP) (“Ampco-Pittsburgh” or the “Corporation”) announced today that it is exploring the possibility of obtaining incremental capital. The Corporation is considering, among other alternatives for equity financing, amending its outstanding Series A warrants to adjust either, or both of, the exercise price or the number of shares of the Corporation’s common stock for which such Series A warrants may be exercised. Ampco-Pittsburgh intends to test the waters to evaluate potential forms of financing to help fund working capital growth opportunities, address rising inflation and work to complete its capital expenditure modernization program.

​"We are exploring options for incremental liquidity, including potential transactions that may provide alternatives to our warrant holders, while helping us to capitalize on our accelerating sales order backlog and position ourselves for higher profitability,” said Brett McBrayer, Ampco-Pittsburgh’s Chief Executive Officer.

The Corporation welcomes feedback from institutional accredited investors and qualified institutional buyers as it tests the waters on contemplated transactions.
