The Company now expects net sales of approximately $700 million, seven percent lower than its previous outlook, with earnings expected to be approximately $0.01-$0.05 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be approximately $37.0 million for the year. The shortfall is primarily due to lower than expected sales of select key product lines.
