Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition

The Company’s press release dated March 1, 2017, regarding its financial results for the period ended December 31, 2016, including consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2016, is Exhibit 99.1 of this Form 8-K.

The information in this Item 2.02, including the corresponding Exhibit 99.1 is hereby filed.

Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review

On February 27, 2017, the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, following consultation with management and discussion with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, BKM Sowan Horan, LLP, concluded that there were accounting errors in the accounting for its equity in earnings from its investment in AMAK in the second and third quarters of 2016. Specifically, there were errors that resulted in (1) an overstatement of the fair value of spare parts obtained by AMAK in the second quarter of 2016 by approximately $2.82 million, and (2) an understatement of the basis of our investment as a result from an equity raise by AMAK in the third quarter of 2016 by approximately $3.17 million. While the errors have an overall combined de minimis effect on net income and earnings per share (less than $.01 per share) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, they do have a material impact on net income of the second and third quarters of 2016. As a result, the second and third quarter 2016 Forms 10-Q should no longer be relied upon. The Company will restate these quarters on or before the due date for the filing of its 2016 Form 10-K.

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

The slides for the Company’s fourth quarter and full-year 2016 earnings presentation on March 1, 2017, are Exhibit 99.2 to this Form 8-K.

The information in this Item 7.01, including the corresponding Exhibit 99.2, is being furnished with the Commission and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
