Item 1. Security and Issuer
Common Stock, $.01 par value (the “Common Stock”), of Core Molding Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at 800 Manor Park Drive, P.O. Box 28183, Columbus, Ohio 28183.
Item 2. Identity and Background
This statement is filed by Richard L. Scott (the “Reporting Person”).
The business address of the Reporting Person is 700 11th Street S, Suite 101, Naples, Florida 34102.
The Reporting Person is a private investor.
The Reporting Person has not been convicted in any criminal proceedings during the five years preceding the filing of this report.
During the five years preceding the filing of this report, the Reporting Person has not been a party to any civil proceedings of a judicial or administrative body which has resulted in any judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
The Reporting Person is a United States citizen.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
The Reporting Person has used personal funds of approximately $1,589,975 to acquire 226,405 shares of Common Stock in open market transactions. The Common Stock was purchased by three different entities controlled by the Reporting Person.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
The Reporting Person purchased the Common Stock in private transactions for general investment purposes. The Reporting Person is supportive of the Issuer’s existing strategy. The Reporting Person is the largest shareholder of Continental Structural Plastics, Inc. (“CSP”), a private company, which, as noted in the Issuer’s most recent Form 10-K filing, is a competitor with the Issuer. Both the Reporting Person and the CEO of CSP have in the past approached the Issuer with regards to a potential combination between CSP and the Issuer. The Reporting Person believes that a combination would be beneficial to the Issuer’s shareholders as it would create incremental cash flow and at the same time help reduce many of the risk factors noted in the Issuer’s recent Form 10-K filing. These risk factors include:
“We are dependent on sales to a small number of our major customers.”

“Our business is affected by the cyclical nature of the industries and markets that we serve.”
“Price increases in raw materials and availability of raw materials could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.”
“Cost reduction and quality improvement initiatives by original equipment manufacturers could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.”
“We operate in highly competitive markets.”
Consistent with such purposes, the Reporting Person may seek to engage in future discussions with management of the Issuer and may make suggestions concerning the Issuer’s operations, prospects, business and financial strategies, assets and liabilities, business and financing alternatives and such other matters as the Reporting Person may deem relevant to his investment in the Issuer. In addition, the Reporting Person may from time to time, depending on prevailing market, economic and other conditions, acquire additional shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer or engage in discussions with the Issuer concerning further acquisitions of shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer or further investments in the Issuer. The Reporting Person intends to review his investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and, depending upon the price and availability of shares of the Common Stock, subsequent developments affecting the Issuer, the Issuer’s business and prospects, other investment and business opportunities available to the Reporting Person, general stock market and economic conditions, tax considerations and other factors considered relevant, may decide at any time to increase or to decrease the size of his investment in the Issuer. Except as set forth above, the Reporting Person does not have any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in (a) the acquisition of additional securities of the Issuer or the disposition of securities of the Issuer, (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (d) any change in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board of directors of the Issuer, (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer, (f) any other material change in the business or corporate structure of the Issuer, (g) changes in the Issuer’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer, (h) the delisting from a national securities exchange or termination of quotations in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association for any class of capital stock of the Issuer, (i) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Common Stock, or (j) or any action similar to the foregoing actions listed. The Reporting Person will continue to evaluate the Issuer and his investment therein and may later determine to propose or support any one or more of such actions in the future, to purchase additional shares of the Common Stock or to sell part or all of his holdings of the Common Stock of the Issuer.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
The 226,405 shares of the Common Stock owned by the Reporting Person constitute 3.4% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer, based on the outstanding shares of Issuer Common Stock set forth on the Issuer’s most recent Form 10-K.
The Reporting Person has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the Common Stock.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
The Reporting Person does not have any contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) with any person with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including but not limited to transfer or voting of any of the securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
