(ACU) Company Report – November 14, 2015 Acme United Corporation Is a Worldwide Supplier of Cutting Devices Smallcaps Investment Research Acme United Corp. (ACU) Company Report – November 14, 2015 Acme United Corporation is a worldwide supplier of cutting devices, measuring instruments and first-aid products for school, home, office, industrial and hardware use. In the third quarter, ended September 30, 2015, Acme United achieved record back-to- school sales and record earnings. In addition, the Company is on course for a new annual sales and earnings record in 2015. Also 2016 looks very promising. The full optimization of the Company’s three first aid brands, will lead to cost savings of up to $1 million in 2016 and beyond. We also foresee plenty of growth for Acme’s other brands. Camillus, for example, is gaining market share with its knives, and camping & hunting gear. At Clauss, a number of market tests with large retail chains are ongoing with strong results so far. As for Westcott, we should start to see the full impact of the large Office Depot/Office Max scissors account for North America that Acme picked up a couple of months ago. Based on our outlook and calculations, we reiterate our buy recommendation for Acme United Corp. with a price target of $28.67, which is 68% above today’s stock price. The decline of the Canadian dollar and euro versus the U.S. dollar has stopped in recent months. Both segments are reducing costs with suppliers, trimming expenses, and increasing their selling prices to somewhat regain their margins. All these efforts should start to have a positive impact.

    Robert J. DeSalvo Papers Business Combinations in the Cosmetic and Pharmaceutical Industries 1944 - 1990 Collection #107 Abstract Robert J. DeSalvo’s research focused on business combinations (acquisitions, mergers, and joint ventures in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. This topic was the basis for his master’s thesis in pharmacy administration at the University of Pittsburgh and continued as a life-long interest. This collection consists of two series of notebooks that Dr. DeSalvo developed to record relevant business combinations. The first series records acquisitions, proposed acquisitions, mergers, and joint ventures for the period of 1944 –1990 in an alphabetical arrangement. The information on these entries is cumulative so that the history of an organization is collected in one place. The second series of notebooks is arranged in chronological blocks. The information is arranged alphabetically by the name of the acquirer. The name of the acquired (merged), type of combination (acquisition, proposed acquisition, joint venture) and the date is also provided. The information is cross-referenced between the two series so that the researcher can approach the information by the name of the parent company or chronologically. Dr. DeSalvo used this resource for many of his publications as well as his master’s thesis. A copy of these publications and his thesis make up the remainder of the collection. Donor Gift of Barbara DeSalvo, 2000 Biography Robert James DeSalvo was born on July 20, 1933 in Toledo, OH. He died on January 23, 1993 in Cincinnati, OH.
