The all-cash purchase price is $84,308,757.68, and the transaction has been approved by the boards of both companies and is expected to close in the second half of 2026, subject to regulatory and other customary closing conditions.

• Proceeds allocation: ~93% of net sale proceeds payable to Boston Omaha; remaining net proceeds to GIG senior management.
• Escrow & indemnity: Portion of purchase price held in escrow for two years; CopperPoint’s indemnification recourse against the sellers capped at $5,250,000 (subject to customary exceptions).

Why It Matters
This is a material divestiture of Boston Omaha’s surety insurance unit that will convert the unit into cash proceeds for the company, subject to regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions. The transaction terms (price, escrow, indemnity cap, and pre-closing asset returns) set clear near-term financial outcomes for Boston Omaha but completion is contingent on approvals and other closing conditions disclosed in the filing. The company also provided a press release and included forward-looking statement disclosures noting risks around timing, approvals and potential termination.
