LAS VEGAS, May 17, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Live Ventures Incorporated (Nasdaq: LIVE), a diversified holding company (“Live Ventures” or “Company”), announced today that it has acquired Central Steel Fabricators, LLC (“CSF”), a Chicago-based manufacturer of specialized fabricated metal products primarily for data centers and the communications industry.

As major corporations continue to invest heavily in AI and data centers, we believe CSF will be a big beneficiary of such demand,” said Jon Isaac, President and CEO of Live Ventures.

“We are a highly valued manufacturer specializing in meeting the infrastructure needs of the communications industry. We are driven by a devoted team dedicated to delivering excellence in every product we produce. Serving Engineer Furnish & Install (EF&I) contractors nationwide, we take pride in offering customer service that sets us apart from our competitors. We look forward to becoming part of the Live Ventures team,” said Mike Murzanski, CSF’s President. “CSF is strategically positioned to capitalize on the ongoing growth in the communications infrastructure sector.

By joining Live Ventures, we gain access to growth capital that will provide further expansion and development opportunities.”
