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.

The Form 11-K, which is the subject of this 12b-25 extension, is being filed in order to report the information required of the A.M. Castle & Co. 401(k) Savings and Retirement Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan is unable to timely file its Form 11-K because the audit of the financial statements is still in process. In order to ensure the accuracy of the information contained in the Form 11-K, the Plan believes it is necessary to obtain an extension of the filing date.
