Part III Narrative

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

SIFCO Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) has experienced a delay in completing the financial statements to be included in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2015. As a result of this delay, the Company is unable to file its Form 10-Q by the prescribed filing date without unreasonable effort or expense.

The Company’s inability to timely file its Form 10-Q is a result of time needed to address certain accounting matters. In the third quarter, the Company recorded immaterial corrections related to both the first and second fiscal quarters of 2015. The Company is working through these corrections and its assessment of its internal controls over financial reporting.
