Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
          As reported on Form 8-K dated January 26, 2006, SL Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) through a wholly owned subsidiary, completed a tender offer for Ault Incorporated (“Ault”). The Company acquired approximately 86.9% of the outstanding common stock of Ault at $2.90 per share. The Company had previously purchased in the open market approximately 4.8% of the outstanding common stock of Ault for $567,000. On January 26, 2006, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary was merged with and into Ault. As a result, Ault became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the shares not tendered were converted into the right to receive $2.90 per share in cash, without interest. The total purchase price for the common stock of Ault was approximately $13,986,000, which includes the shares already owned by the Company. The Company also paid approximately $2,079,000, including interest, to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Ault’s preferred stock. The source of funds for the acquisition was a combination of the Company’s available cash, as well as borrowings from its Revolving Credit Facility. The purpose of this Form 8-KA is to amend the Company’s current report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission dated January 26, 2006 to provide the required Audited Financial Statements of Ault and to provide the required unaudited combined pro forma financials to reflect the acquisition of Ault.
