Item 7. Financial Statements, Pro Forma Financial
Information and Exhibits
On September 9, 1996 AmeriTruck Distribution Corp. (the "Company")
filed a Current Report on Form 8-K relating to its acquisition of all the
outstanding capital stock of KTL, Inc. ("KTL").
In the Form 8-K filed on September 9, 1996, the Company stated that it
was currently impractical to provide unaudited financial statements for KTL for
the six months ended June 30, 1996 and the pro forma financial information
required by Article 11 of Regulation S-K. The Company also stated that it would
file this Information as soon as it is available, but not later than November 5,
1996.
On October 29, 1996, the Company received a letter from the Securities
and Exchange Commission ("SEC") waiving the requirement that the Company file
the historical and pro forma financial information relating to KTL. This waiver
was granted in response to a request by the Company made in light of SEC Release
No. 34-37802 "Streamlining Disclosure Requirements Relating to Significant
Business Acquisitions." Therefore, the Company will not be furnishing this
Information.
