XPEL, Inc. 8-K

What Happened

• XPEL, Inc. announced on May 15, 2026 that its subsidiary Harvest Ventures Holding Company completed the acquisition of the real property and improvements for its San Antonio, TX storage/fabrication/warehouse facility and adjoining parcels for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $60,400,000.
• To finance the purchase, Harvest entered into a Building Loan with PNC Bank, N.A. for $44,800,000 (closing interest rate 4.7% per annum). The loan bears interest at Term SOFR + 125 basis points, matures May 15, 2036, and amortizes over 25 years. XPEL has guaranteed Harvest’s obligations under the loan.
• XPEL also amended its Wells Fargo credit facility to permit the Building Loan, the assignment of the purchase agreement to Harvest, XPEL’s guaranty, and to allow XPEL to invest up to $18,000,000 in Harvest and in Harvest Industrial Corporation related to the acquisition and property-related expenditures.
• In a May 19, 2026 press release, XPEL also disclosed it acquired a 75% interest in a manufacturing facility in China (separately announced).
