Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On December 22, 2011, Baldwin Technology Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) among the Company, Forsyth Capital Investors, LLC, a Missouri limited liability company (“FCI”), Forsyth Baldwin, LLC, a Missouri limited liability company, Forsyth Baldwin Mezzanine, Inc., a Missouri corporation, and Forsyth Baldwin, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of FCI (“Merger Sub”), which contemplates the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), and Class B Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Class B Common Stock” and, together with the Class A Common Stock, the “Common Stock”), outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (other than shares held by FCI, the Company or any of their respective subsidiaries) has been converted into the right to receive $0.96 per share in cash, subject to adjustment as described in the Company’s Definitive Merger Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on February 16, 2012 (the “Proxy Statement”), without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes (the “Merger Consideration”). In accordance with the adjustment provisions contained in the Merger Agreement, the Merger Consideration paid by FCI was $0.96 per share, or an aggregate amount of approximately $16.6 million, which includes amounts paid in respect of Company Stock Awards (as defined in the Proxy Statement), options and warrants, as described in the Proxy Statement.

On March 15, 2012, Baldwin Technology Company, Inc. held a Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) in Shelton, Connecticut. At the Special Meeting, holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock of the Company approved the adoption of the Merger Agreement.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on March 20, 2012, the Merger Sub merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation. As a result of the Merger, the Company is now a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of FCI.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Form 8-K filed by the Company on December 28, 2011.

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

In connection with the pending closing of the Merger, the Company notified the NYSE Amex LLC (the “NYSE AMEX”) on March 16, 2012, that, as of the effective time of the Merger, each share of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock then issued and outstanding (other than shares then owned by FCI or any of its direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries) would cease to be issued and outstanding and would be automatically converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without interest, less any applicable withholding taxes, and requested that the NYSE AMEX file with the Commission a Notification of Removal from Listing and/or Registration Under Section 12(b) on Form 25 to delist and deregister the shares of Class A Common Stock under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
