The reported shares are the Issuer?s common stock.
283,239 of the reported shares are owned by investment advisory
clients of KDI Capital Partners, LLC (?KDI?). As reflected above,
each of the Partnerships directly owns shares of the Issuer
(of these 283,239 shares, 246,969 shares are owned in the
aggregate by the Partnerships, and the remainder are owned by
separate accounts managed by KDI.). KDI is the investment advisor
and general partner of each of the Partnerships. Other separately
managed account clients also own, in the aggregate, 36,270
shares of the Issuer; however, in the aggregate, these accounts
amount to about .4% of the outstanding shares of the Issuer.
As investment advisor to all of these accounts (and as investment
advisor and general partner of the Partnerships), KDI could be
deemed to be an indirect beneficial owner of 283,239 of the
reported shares by virtue of its voting and dispositive power
over these shares.
John M. Day and Sheldon M. Fox are the managing members and principal
owners of KDI, and could be deemed to share such indirect beneficial
ownership with KDI. Mr. Day also owns 55 shares of the Issuer?s
common stock in a separate account that is not managed by KDI.
This amendment to Schedule 13G (the ?Amendment?) is being filed to
reflect year-end ownership of the Issuer?s securities for KDI?s clients
on December 31, 2017 and updates previous filings made by KDI, the
Partnerships and Messrs. Day and Fox.
Item 5. Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class.
If this statement is being filed to report the fact that as of the date hereof
the reporting person has ceased to be the beneficial owner of more
than five percent of the class of securities, check the following X .
Item 6. Ownership of More than Five Percent on Behalf of Another Person.
Not applicable.
Item 7. Identification and Classification of the Subsidiary Which Acquired
the Security Being Reported on by the Parent Holding Company
or Control Person.
Not applicable.
Item 8. Identification and Classification of Members of the Group.
Not applicable.
Item 9. Notice of Dissolution of Group.
Not applicable.
Item 10. Certification.
By signing below, each of the undersigned certifies that, to the best of
his or its knowledge and belief, the securities referred to above were not
acquired and are not held for the purpose of or with the effect of changing
or influencing the control of the issuer of the securities and were not acquired
and are not held in connection with or as a participant in any transaction
having that purpose or effect.
