Ascent Industries. Co.                                    
Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Information

Introduction
On December 22, 2023, Specialty Pipe & Tube, Inc. ("SPT") a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Ascent Industries, Co. a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement ("Transaction Agreement") with Specialty Pipe & Tube Operations, LLC., a Delaware limited liability company (the "Purchaser"). Pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, the Company sold to the Purchaser substantially all the assets, and certain specified liabilities, of SPT (the "Transaction"). The total purchase price was $55 million of cash proceeds plus certain closing adjustments.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023, presents the Company’s consolidated financial position giving pro forma effect to the Transaction as if it had occurred on September 30, 2023. The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of income (loss) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and consolidated statements of income (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 present the Company’s consolidated results of operations giving pro forma effect to the Transaction as if it had occurred on January 1, 2021.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein have been derived from the Company’s historical consolidated financial statements. While the historical consolidated financial statements reflect the past financial results of the Company, the pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are included for informational purposes only and are intended to illustrate how the Transaction might have affected the historical consolidated financial statements had it been completed at an earlier time as indicated herein. The Transaction constituted a significant disposition for purposes of Item 2.01 of Form 8-K and these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, Pro Forma Financial Information, and include adjustments to the extent that they are directly attributable to the Transaction. The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements give rise to the elimination of the net assets and financial performance of the Company's SPT business in accordance with rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC".)

These pro forma adjustments are based on currently available information, estimates and assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable in order to reflect, on a pro forma basis, the impact of the Transaction on the Company’s historical information, and are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s future financial position and future results of operations and do not reflect all actions that may be taken by the Company following the closing of the Transaction. The actual financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect the realization of any expected cost savings, synergies or dis-synergies as a result of the Transaction. In connection with the Transaction, the Company executed a Transition Services Agreement with the Purchaser whereby the Company agreed to continue to provide certain services for SPT free of charge for a period of up to six months. We considered the impact of the Transition Services Agreement and determined that no further pro forma adjustments were necessary as the impact of any adjustments would enhance an understanding of the pro forma effects of the Transaction as the agreement is not expected to have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023 or the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

These unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in connection with:
the Company’s historical audited consolidated financial statements, the accompanying notes and “Managements Discussion of Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023; and
the Company’s unaudited interim historical consolidated financial statements, the accompanying notes and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2023, filed with the SEC on November 8, 2023.

Ascent Industries Co.                                    
Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Information
(amounts in thousands)
a)Represents the estimated cash proceeds received from the disposition of SPT less the escrow amount, comprised of the base purchase price of $55,000 offset by (i) the estimated working capital adjustment of $422 based on the net working capital of SPT as of September 30, 2023, (ii) estimated indebtedness of $274 (iii) transaction costs of $993 and (iv) the escrow amount of $165.

b)Represents the elimination of the assets and liabilities associated with the disposition of SPT of $3,789, offset by the accrual for the escrow amount of $165.

c)Represents the elimination of liabilities (accrued expenses) associated with the disposition of SPT of $316, offset by the accrual for additional transaction costs of $993 incurred subsequent to September 30, 2023, in connection with the disposition of SPT that are not reflected in the Company's historical financial statements as of September 30, 2023.

d)Represents the impact of the estimated pro forma gain on the disposition of SPT, which is calculated as the difference between total consideration received for the disposition of SPT (including the escrow amount) of $53,310 and the net assets of SPT presented in its historical balance sheet as of September 30, 2023 amounting to $25,550, net of transaction costs incurred after September 30, 2023 of $993 and taxes (refer to adjustment (e) below). The estimated pro forma gain on disposal has been adjusted within the pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet above as this gain is not reflected within the Company's historical financial statements through September 30, 2023. The actual gain on disposal will be based on the balance sheet information as of the closing of the disposition of SPT and may differ significantly. The pro forma gain on disposal has not been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations as this amount pertains to discontinued operations and does not impact income from continuing operations.

e)Represents the estimated tax expense resulting from the gain on the disposition of SPT. The Company estimates that the federal and state tax effected gain will be offset by year-to-date net operating losses, reflected as a decrease to the net deferred tax asset.

f)Represents the elimination of operations relating to the disposition of SPT.

g)Represents the impact to the annual tax provision recorded in connection with the historical operations of SPT.
