Item 9: Regulation FD Disclosure
On February 26, 2004, Keystone Consolidated Industries, Inc. (the "Company"
or "Keystone"), together with five of its direct and indirect subsidiaries (FV
Steel and Wire Company, DeSoto Environmental Management, Inc., J.L. Prescott
Company, Sherman Wire Company F/K/A DeSoto, Inc. and Sherman Wire of Caldwell,
Inc.), filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the
United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court
for the Eastern District of Wisconsin in Milwaukee (the "Bankruptcy Court").
On May 17, 2004, Keystone filed its Monthly Operating Report for the
month of April 2004 (the "Monthly Operating Report") with the Bankruptcy Court.
A copy of certain summary financial information and related supporting schedules
contained in the Monthly Operating Report (the "Bankruptcy Financial
Information") is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference
herein.
The Bankruptcy Financial Information is limited in scope, covers a limited
time period and has been prepared solely for purposes of complying with the
monthly reporting requirements of the Bankruptcy Court. Keystone's wholly owned
subsidiary, Engineered Wire Products, Inc. ("EWP"), has not filed for protection
under the Bankruptcy Code, and financial information for EWP has been omitted
from the Bankruptcy Financial Information. The Bankruptcy Financial Information
is unaudited and does not purport to show the financial statements of Keystone
or any of its subsidiaries in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), and therefore excludes items required by
GAAP, such as certain reclassifications, eliminations, accruals and disclosure
items. Keystone cautions readers not to place undue reliance upon the Bankruptcy
Financial Information. There can be no assurance that such information is
complete.
A copy of certain financial information of EWP (the "EWP Financial
Information") is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated by reference
herein. The EWP Financial Information is limited in scope, covers a limited time
period and has been prepared solely for purposes of internal reporting within
Keystone. The EWP Financial Information is unaudited and does not purport to
show the financial statements of EWP in accordance with GAAP , and therefore
excludes items required by GAAP, such as certain reclassifications,
eliminations, accruals and disclosure items. Keystone cautions readers not to
place undue reliance upon the EWP Financial Information. There can be no
assurance that such information is complete.
The Bankruptcy Financial Information and the EWP Financial Information are
for information purposes only and are not deemed "filed" for purposes of Section
18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to
the liabilities of that section. Registration statements or other documents
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission shall not incorporate the
Bankruptcy Financial Information or EWP Financial Information by reference,
except as otherwise expressly stated in such filing.
