**Item 8.01&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other Events**

On June 18, 2025, Ascent Industries Co. (the "Company") adopted a written trading plan under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"). The trading plan will include purchases up to the total amount of 350,000 shares executed daily based on specified price targets. This written trading plan will take effect on June 20, 2025 and will cease on August 5, 2025.

Adopting a trading plan that satisfies the conditions of Rule 10b5-1 allows a company to repurchase its shares at times when it might otherwise be prevented from doing so due to self-imposed trading blackout periods or pursuant to insider trading laws. A broker selected by the Company will have the authority under the terms and limitations specified in the plan to repurchase shares on the Company's behalf in accordance with the terms of the plan. After the expiration of the current trading plan, the Company may from time to time enter into subsequent trading plans under Rule 10b5-1 to facilitate the repurchase of its common stock pursuant to its stock repurchase program.

Information regarding stock repurchases will be available in the Company's periodic reports on Form 10-Q and 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as required by the applicable rules of the Exchange Act.
