Southco Launches New Handbook

One of the most useful features of HB72 is the part number builder. Many Southco products are highly configurable, allowing them to fit many different applications, but with such a large offering comes a long list of part numbers. HB72 allows you to clearly see which options go with which part numbers, so manufacturers can be sure that they are getting the correct parts every time.
Another helpful feature of HB72 is the selection guide in the beginning of each product category. This allows users to easily compare and contrast all products in a category side-by-side and choose the right one for their needs. They can view features such as material, latch types, and installation, all in one convenient table, and ensure that they get the best solution for their application.
Additionally, each product shows detailed product drawings, performance details, and installation notes. These provide the exact dimensions of each product, show how much force it is designed to withstand or provide, and ensure that users install the product correctly. In HB72, Southco presents a wide range of access solutions, and ensures that users have the knowledge to use them correctly.
This is a rare opportunity to be among the first to obtain a new Southco handbook in print. While their last print handbook, HB65, remains a good reference point for the products contained in it, Southco’s product range has increased substantially since the last handbook’s printing in 2015. HB72 includes over eighty pages of new products that are designed for growing industries and fill gaps in the functionality of Southco’s previous lineup. Now, users can rest easy knowing they have every solution they need, and all the information needed to use them in one place: Southco Handbook 72.
To order your copy of Southco Handbook 72 please visit southco.com or email the 24/7 customer service department at info@southco.com

ROSEN, A LEADING LAW FIRM, Encourages DLocal Limited Investors to Inquire About Class Action Investigation – DLO
New York, New York – Newsfile Corp. – February 14, 2023 – WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, announces an investigation of potential securities claims on behalf of shareholders of DLocal Limited (NASDAQ: DLO) resulting from allegations that DLocal may have issued materially misleading business information to the investing public.
SO WHAT: If you purchased DLocal securities you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement. The Rosen Law Firm is preparing a class action seeking recovery of investor losses.
WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the prospective class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=11762 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action.
WHAT IS THIS ABOUT: On November 16, 2022, Muddy Waters Research (“Muddy Waters”) published a report entitled “DLO: ‘History Never Repeats Itself, but it Does Often Rhyme,'” which concluded that “DLO is likely a fraud” and stated that the Company “has repeated disclosures about its TPV and accounts receivable that flatly contradict one another. There is also a contradictory discrepancy between two key subsidiaries’ accounts payable and accounts receivable. These types of seemingly innocuous misstatements are, instead, often signs of cooked books because it can become quite a strain to keep the numbers straight once you start manipulating them.” In addition, the report stated that “Management and directors dumped an extraordinary ~$1 billion in shares within the first five months of DLO being public. A spate of recent high-level departures brings to mind the idiom about ‘rats fleeing a sinking ship.'”
On this news, DLocal’s stock price fell $10.76 per share, or 50%, to close at $10.46 per share on November 16, 2022.
Then, on December 1, 2022, Muddy Waters published a second report stating that DLocal has held calls with clients from several banks, stressing that it had separated client funds from its own. The report also said that DLocal’s calls with clients were “non-specific” and “sweet-talking,” and that “all [the Company] needed to do to address this issue was provide an explanation as to how the cash flows reconcile.”
On this news, DLocal’s stock price fell $2.21 per share, or 15%, to close at $12.39 per share on December 1, 2022.
WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles.
