ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Perma-Pipe International Holdings, Inc., collectively with its subsidiaries ("PPIH", the "Company", "we", "our" or the "Registrant"), is engaged in the manufacture and sale of products in one reportable segment: Piping Systems. The Company was incorporated in Delaware on October 12, 1993. The Company's common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Global Market and reported under the ticker symbol "PPIH". The Company's fiscal year ends on January 31. Years, results and balances described as 2025, 2024 and 2023 are for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2026 and the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

The Company engineers, designs, manufactures and sells specialty piping systems and leak detection systems. Specialty piping systems include: (i) insulated and jacketed district heating and cooling piping systems for efficient energy distribution from central energy plants to multiple locations, (ii) primary and secondary containment piping systems for transporting chemicals, hazardous fluids and petroleum products, (iii) the coating and/or insulation of oil and gas gathering and transmission pipelines, and (iv) liquid and powder based anti-corrosion coatings applied both to the external and internal surfaces of steel pipe, including shapes such as bends, reducers, tees, and other spools/fittings used in pipelines for the transportation of oil and gas products and potable water. The Company's leak detection systems are sold with its piping systems or on a stand-alone basis to monitor areas where fluid intrusion may contaminate the environment, endanger personal safety, cause a fire hazard, impair essential services or damage equipment or property.

The Company frequently engineers and custom fabricates to job site dimensions and incorporates provisions for thermal expansion due to cycling temperatures. Most of the Company's piping systems are produced for underground installations and, therefore, require trenching, which is the responsibility of the general contractor, and completed by unaffiliated installation contractors.

The Company’s piping systems are typically sold as a part of discrete projects, and customer demand can vary by reporting period. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

Operating Facilities. The Company operates its business from the following locations:

Perma-Pipe, Inc.	Perma-Pipe Middle East LLC
Rolling Meadows, IL	Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates
New Iberia, LA	Perma-Pipe Middle East FZC
Lebanon, TN	Fujairah, United Arab Emirates
Perma-Pipe Canada, Ltd.	Perma-Pipe Saudi Arabia, LLC
Camrose, Alberta, Canada	Perma-Pipe Gulf Arabia, LLC
Vars, Ontario, Canada	Dammam, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Perma-Pipe Egypt for Metal Fabrication and Insulation Industries (Perma-Pipe Egypt) S.A.E.	Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Beni Suef, Egypt	Medina, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Perma-Pipe India Pvt. Ltd
Gandhidham, India

Customers and sales channels. The Company's customer base is industrially and geographically diverse. In the United States, the Company employs inside and outside sales managers who use and assist a network of independent manufacturers' representatives, none of whom sell products that are competitive with the Company's piping systems. The Company employs a direct sales force to market and sell products and services in Canada, India, Egypt, and across several countries in the Middle East. On a country-by-country basis, and where advantageous, the Company uses an agent network to assist in marketing and selling the Company's products and services.

For the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, no one customer accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's consolidated net sales.

As of January 31, 2025 and 2024, no one customer accounted for greater than 10% of accounts receivable.

Backlog. The Company’s backlog on January 31, 2025 was $138.1 million, compared to $68.4 million on January 31, 2024, most of which is expected to be completed within the year ending January 31, 2026. The increase in the backlog was the result of new awards year-over-year in excess of completed projects during the year in North America and the Middle East. The Company defines backlog as the expected total revenue value resulting from confirmed customer purchase orders that have not yet been recognized as revenue. However, by industry practice, orders may be canceled or modified at any time. In the event of a cancellation, the customer is normally responsible for all finished goods produced or shipped, all direct and indirect costs incurred, and also for a reasonable allowance for anticipated profits. No assurance can be given that these amounts will be recovered after cancellation. Any cancellation or delay in orders may result in lower than expected revenues from the Company's reported backlog. Additionally, as a result of the Company's contracts having a duration of less than one year, a practical expedient was applied regarding disclosure of the aggregate amount and future timing of performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially satisfied as of the end of the reporting period.

Intellectual property. The Company owns various patents covering its piping and electronic leak detection systems, as well as for some of the features of its sensor cables. These patents are not material to the Company either individually or in the aggregate because the Company believes its sales would not be materially reduced if patent protection was not available. The Company owns numerous trademarks connected with its piping and leak detection systems throughout the world.

Table of Contents

Suppliers. The basic raw materials used in production are pipes and tubes made of carbon steel, steel alloys, copper, ductile iron, or polymers and various chemicals such as polyols, isocyanate, urethane resin, polyethylene, and fiberglass, which are mostly purchased in bulk quantities. The Company believes there are currently adequate supplies and sources of availability of these needed raw materials.

The sensor cables used in the Company's leak detection and location systems are manufactured to the Company's specifications by companies regularly engaged in manufacturing such cables. The Company assembles the monitoring component of its leak detection and location systems from components purchased from many sources.

Due to the current inflationary environment, raw material supply shortages and transportation delays, the Company routinely experiences delays and increased prices for raw materials used in the Company's production processes. To mitigate these impacts, the Company has implemented several strategies, including purchasing from alternative suppliers and planning for material purchases further in advance to ensure the Company has materials when needed. The Company also adjusts its pricing to customers to offset the impacts of the raw material price increases. These impacts are expected to continue throughout 2025, and the resulting future disruptions to the Company’s operations are uncertain.

Competition. The piping systems market is highly competitive. The Company believes that quality, service, engineering design capabilities and support, a comprehensive product line, timely execution, plant location and price are key competitive factors in the industry. The Company also believes it has a more comprehensive product line than any competitor.

Research and Development. The Company's research and development efforts primarily focus on activities and development to meet product specifications mandated by its customers and the industry.

Environmental impacts. The Company provides insulated pipe for district energy systems. A district energy system is a highly efficient way to provide heating or cooling to buildings. A central plant produces steam or chilled water that flows through insulated pipes to buildings. The goal of a district energy system is to centralize production to deliver energy efficiency, reduce operating costs, and use less equipment compared to individual buildings with their own boilers and chillers. In addition, district heating and cooling plants can provide better pollution control than localized boilers and cooling equipment.

EMPLOYEES

As of January 31, 2025, the Company had approximately 175 full-time employees working in the United States, of which approximately 79 were under two collective bargaining agreements expiring on April 30, 2027 and May 5, 2025. As of January 31, 2025, there were approximately 575 full-time employees working at the Company's international locations. The Company considers its relationship with its employees to be good.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows are subject to various risks, including, but not limited to, those set forth below, which could cause actual results to vary materially from recent results or from anticipated future results. These risk factors should be considered together with information included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Market Condition Risks

The Company's operations and earnings may be significantly affected by changes in oil and gas prices. Oil and gas prices depend on local, regional, and global events or conditions that affect supply and demand. Any material decline in oil or gas prices could have a material adverse effect on the demand for the Company's products, its operations and financial condition.

The Company may be unable to purchase raw materials at favorable prices, or maintain beneficial relationships with its suppliers, which could result in a shortage of supply, or increased pricing . There can be no assurance regarding the availability of supply for key components of the Company's products. The lack of supply of these components could result in an adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company. The steel industry in particular is highly cyclical in nature, and at times, pricing can be highly volatile due to a number of factors beyond the Company's control. The Company utilizes escalation clauses and bid expiration dates to mitigate the impact of this volatility on its earnings. This volatility may negatively impact market conditions thus reducing project activity and the Company's results of operations. If the United States or other countries in which the Company operates impose tariffs on imports of raw materials, including steel, used in the Company's operations, could have an adverse impact on the Company's business.

The Company regularly updates its quoting system for the movements in raw material prices and seeks to recover price differentials through increases in the selling price of the Company's products; however, the Company may not always be successful, and any increase in raw material prices that is not offset by an increase in the Company's prices that is accepted by customers could have an adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows. In addition, if the Company is unable to acquire timely raw material supplies, it may need to decline opportunities, which could also have an adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

Due to the current inflationary environment, raw material supply shortages and transportation delays, the Company could experience delays and increased prices for raw materials used in production processes. To mitigate these impacts, the Company has implemented several strategies, including purchasing from alternative suppliers and planning for material purchases farther in advance to ensure the Company has materials when needed. The Company also adjusts its pricing to customers to offset the impacts of the raw material price increases. The Company is unable to predict the duration of the current inflationary environment, raw material supply shortages and transportation delays, and the resulting future disruptions to the Company’s operations are uncertain.

Decreases in government spending on projects using the Company’s products, and challenges to the Company’s customers’ liquidity and availability of capital funds, may adversely impact demand for the Company’s products. Decreases in government spending on projects using the Company's products can have a negative impact on the Company's sales volumes. Uncertainty about economic market conditions poses risks that the Company's customers may postpone spending for capital improvement and maintenance projects in response to tighter credit markets or negative financial news, which could have a material adverse effect on the demand for the Company's products.

Table of Contents

Financial Risks

The Company may be unable to maintain compliance with existing debt covenants, repay its debt or renew its expiring international credit facilities. There is a risk that the Company may not be able to remain in compliance with its credit agreement covenants. If there were an event of default under the Company's current revolving credit facilities, the lenders could cause all amounts outstanding with respect to that debt to be due and payable immediately. The Company cannot assure that its cash flow will be sufficient to fully repay amounts due under any of the financing arrangements, if accelerated upon an event of default, or, that the Company would be able to repay, refinance or restructure the payments under any such arrangements. Complying with the covenants under the Company's domestic and/or foreign revolving credit facilities may limit management's discretion by restricting options such as:

•

incurring additional debt;

•

entering into transactions with affiliates;

•

making investments or other restricted payments;

•

paying dividends, capital returns, intercompany obligations and other forms of repatriation; and

•

creating liens.

The Company has approximately $2.0 million becoming due in the year ending January 31, 2026 under its various foreign revolving lines of credit. The Company’s credit arrangements used by its Middle Eastern subsidiaries are renewed on an annual basis. In addition to these credit arrangements, the Company also obtains financing in the Middle East on a project-by-project basis. The Company has insignificant borrowings becoming due in the year ending January 31, 2026 under its project financing agreements. While the Company believes that it will be able to renew its Middle East credit arrangements and will have continued access to individual project financing, there is no assurance that such arrangements will be renewed or made available in similar amounts or on similar terms and conditions as the current arrangements, or that such individual project financing will be available for projects that the Company is interested in pursuing in the future.

Any replacement credit arrangements outside of the United States may further limit the Company’s ability to repatriate funds from abroad. Repatriation of funds from certain countries may become limited based upon regulatory restrictions or unfeasible economically because of the taxation of funds when moved to another subsidiary or to the parent company. In addition, any refinancing, replacement or additional financing the Company may obtain could contain similar or more restrictive covenants than those currently applicable to the Company. The Company’s ability to comply with any covenants may be adversely affected by general economic conditions, political decisions, industry conditions and other events beyond management’s control.

The Company may be unable to maintain sustained levels of profitability or positive cash flows in the future. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to maintain profitability or positive cash flows in the future. The Company’s inability to successfully maintain profitability and positive cash flows may result in it experiencing a serious liquidity deficiency resulting in material adverse consequences that could threaten its viability.

The Company extended credit to a customer for a project in the Middle East in 2013 and, if the Company is unable to collect this account receivable, its future profitability could be adversely impacted. One of the Company’s accounts receivable in the total amount of $1.8 million and $2.2 million as of January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, has been outstanding for several years. As of January 31, 2025, the entire balance represents a retention asset that is payable upon the commissioning of the system. Due to the long-term nature of the receivable, $1.2 million and $1.4 million were included in other long-term assets as of January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company completed all of its deliverables in 2015 under the related contract, but the system has not yet been commissioned by the customer as additional activities must be completed prior to the overall system completion and commissioning. Nevertheless, the Company continues to actively engage in ongoing collection efforts with the customer to ensure full payment of open balances, and at various times throughout 2024 and 2023, the Company received a partial payment to settle $0.4 million and $0.6 million of the customer's outstanding balances, respectively, including an additional $0.5 million that was received subsequent to the end of the year. Additionally, the Company has been engaged by the customer to perform additional work in 2025 under customary trade credit terms that support the continued cooperation between the Company and the customer. As a result, the Company did not reserve any allowance against this outstanding receivable as of January 31, 2025. However, if the Company’s efforts to collect on this account are not successful, the Company may recognize an allowance for all, or substantially all, of any such uncollected amounts.

The Company may be impacted by interpretations and changes in tax regulations and legislation which could adversely affect the Company's results of operations. Tax interpretations, regulations, and legislation in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates are subject to measurement uncertainty and the interpretations can impact net income, income tax expense or benefit, and income tax assets or liabilities. Tax rules and regulations, including those relating to foreign jurisdictions, are subject to interpretation and require judgment by the Company that may be challenged by the applicable taxation authorities upon audit. Although the Company believes its assumptions, judgements and estimates are reasonable, changes in tax laws or the Company's interpretation of tax laws and the resolution of any tax audits could significantly impact the amounts provided for income taxes in the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

The Company’s ability to use its net operating loss carryforwards and certain other tax attributes may be limited. The Company’s net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) in the U.S. could expire unused and be unavailable to offset future income tax liabilities because of their limited duration or because of restrictions under U.S. tax law. As of January 31, 2025, the Company had $23.8 million of gross federal NOLs and $21.9 million of gross state NOLs available to offset the Company’s future taxable income. Of the gross federal NOL amount, $16.4 million will begin to expire between tax years 2036 and 2037 and the remainder has an indefinite carryforward. The state NOLs expire at various dates from 2025 to 2044. In addition, the Company's ability to use its NOLs may be limited in the event of future changes in its stock ownership. As a result, if the Company earns net taxable income, the Company’s ability to use its pre-change NOLs to offset U.S. federal taxable income may be subject to limitations, which could potentially result in a future tax liability of the Company. In addition, at the state level, there may be periods in the future during which the use of NOLs is suspended or otherwise limited, which could result in a state tax liability which would otherwise not arise.

The Company’s inability to establish and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could harm its business and financial results. The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting. However, there are material weaknesses in internal controls such that our internal control over financial reporting has been determined not to be effective. Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that the Company would prevent or detect a misstatement of its financial statements or fraud. If we are not able to remediate the material weaknesses and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, our business and financial results could be harmed.

The Company may experience changes in estimates which could result in a reduction or elimination of previously recorded revenues and profit in connection with "over time" revenue recognition. Certain of the Company's contracts recognize revenues using periodic recognition of income. For these contracts, the Company uses the "over time" accounting method. This methodology allows revenue and profits to be recognized proportionally over the life of a contract by comparing the amount of the cost incurred to date against the total amount of cost expected to be incurred. The effect of revisions to revenue and total estimated cost is recorded when amounts are known or can be reasonably estimated. Revisions can occur at any time and could be material. On a historical basis, management believes that reasonably reliable estimates of the progress towards completion on long-term contracts have been made. However, given the uncertainties associated with these types of contracts, it is possible for actual cost to vary from estimates previously made, which may result in reductions or reversals of previously recorded revenue and profits.

Business Condition Risks

Delays in the timing of order receipt, execution, delivery and acceptance for the Company’s products generally negatively impact the Company’s operating results. The Company's operating results in any reporting period could be negatively impacted as a result of delays in the timing of project execution.

The Company may not be able to successfully negotiate progress-billing arrangements for its large contracts, which could adversely impact the Company’s working capital needs, cash flows and credit risk. The Company sells systems and products under contracts that allow the Company to either bill upon the completion of certain agreed upon milestones, or upon actual shipment of the system or product. The Company attempts to negotiate progress-billing milestones on large contracts to help manage its working capital and cash flows, and to reduce the credit risk associated with these large contracts. Consequently, changes in accepted billing terms of contracts could impact the Company's requirements for working capital and cash flows.

Aggressive pricing by existing competitors and the entrance of new competitors in the markets in which the Company operates could drive down the Company's profits and reduce the Company's revenue. The Company's business is highly competitive. Some of the Company's competitors are large organizations with access to considerable financial resources. Additionally, many of the Company's products are also subject to competition from alternative technologies and alternative products. In periods of declining demand, the Company's fixed cost structure may limit its ability to cut costs, which may be a competitive disadvantage compared to companies with more flexible cost structures, or may result in reduced operating margins, operating losses and negative cash flows.

The Company may be subject to claims for damages for defective products. The Company warrants its products to be free of certain defects. The Company has, from time to time, had claims alleging defects in its products. The Company may experience material product liability claims in the future and it could incur significant costs to defend such claims. While the Company currently has product liability insurance that it believes to be sufficient, the Company cannot be certain that its product liability insurance coverage will be adequate for liabilities that may be incurred in the future or that such coverage will continue to be available to the Company on commercially reasonable terms. Any claims relating to defective products that result in liabilities exceeding the Company's insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

The Company may not be able to recover costs and damages from vendors that supply defective materials. The Company may receive defective materials from its vendors that are incorporated into the Company's products during the manufacturing process. While the Company mitigates this risk through contract terms, traceability and specifications, and has recourse to recover from vendors the costs to repair, remake or replace defective products, such costs could be greater than the amount that can be recovered. Such excess costs could have an adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

Product and service orders included in the Company’s backlog may be reduced or cancelled. The Company defines backlog as the revenue value resulting from confirmed customer purchase orders that have not yet been recognized as revenue. Orders may be canceled or modified at any time. In the event of a cancellation, the customer is normally responsible for all finished goods produced or shipped, all direct and indirect costs incurred and also for a reasonable allowance for anticipated profits. No assurance can be given that these amounts will be recovered after cancellation. Any reduction or cancellation of orders may result in revenues that are lower than expected.

The Company's results of operations could be adversely affected by changes in international regulations and other activities of government agencies related to the Company’s operations. International sales represent a significant portion of the Company's total sales. The Company's sales to foreign customers were 66.6% and 65.6% in the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company's anticipated growth and profitability may require increasing foreign sales volume and may necessitate further international expansion. The Company's results of operations could be adversely affected by changes in trade, monetary and fiscal policies, laws and regulations, other activities of governments, agencies and similar organizations, and other factors. These factors include, but are not limited to, changes in a country's or region's economic or political conditions, trade regulations affecting production, pricing and marketing of products, local labor conditions and regulations, reduced protection of intellectual property rights, changes in the regulatory or legal environment, restrictions on currency exchange activities, burdensome taxes and tariffs and other trade barriers. We cannot predict the impact of changes in foreign policies adopted by the current U.S. administration will have on our business. International risks and uncertainties, including changing social and economic conditions as well as terrorism, political hostilities and war, could lead to reduced international sales and reduced profitability associated with such sales. In addition, these risks can include delays in collection of accounts receivable. Because the Company conducts a significant portion of its business activities in the Gulf Cooperation Council ("GCC"), the political and economic events of the countries that comprise the GCC can have a material effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows.

Due to the international scope of the Company’s operations, it is subject to a complex system of commercial and trade regulations around the world. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries are governed by laws, rules and business practices that differ from those of the United States. If the activities of these entities do not comply with U.S. laws or business practices or the Company’s Code of Business Conduct, then violations of these laws may result in severe criminal or civil sanctions, which could disrupt the Company’s business, and result in an adverse effect on the Company’s reputation, business and results of operations or financial condition. The Company cannot predict the nature, scope, or effect of future regulatory requirements to which its operations might be subject or the manner in which existing laws might be administered or interpreted.

General Risks

The Company may be unable to retain its senior management and key personnel. The Company's ability to meet its strategic and financial goals will depend to a significant extent on the continued contributions of its senior management and key personnel, or the successful transition of responsibilities of departing senior management and key personnel. Future success will also depend in large part on the Company's ability to identify, attract, motivate, effectively utilize and retain highly qualified managerial, sales, marketing and technical personnel. The loss of senior management or other key personnel or the inability to identify, attract and retain qualified personnel in the future could make it more difficult to manage the Company's business and could adversely affect operations and financial results.

The Company may not be able to achieve the expected benefits from its growth initiatives. The Company's cyclical or general expansion may result in unanticipated adverse consequences, including significant strain on management, operations and financial systems, as well as on the Company's ability to attract and retain competent employees. In the future, the Company may seek to grow its business by investing in new or existing facilities, making acquisitions, entering partnerships and joint ventures, or constructing new facilities, which could introduce additional risks, including:

•

strain on working capital;

•

diversion of management's attention away from other activities, which could impair the operation of existing businesses;

•

failure to successfully integrate an acquired business or facility into existing operations;

•

inability to maintain key pre-acquisition business relationships;

•

loss of key personnel of an acquired business or facility;

•

exposure to unanticipated liabilities; and

•

failure to realize efficiencies, synergies and cost savings.

As a result of these and other factors, including general economic risks, the Company may not be able to realize the expected benefits from future acquisitions, new facility developments, partnerships, joint ventures or other investments.

The Company's information technology systems may be negatively affected by cybersecurity threats. The Company faces risks relating to cybersecurity attacks that could cause the loss of confidential information and other business disruptions. The Company relies extensively on computer systems to process transactions and manage its business, and its business is at risk from and may be impacted by cybersecurity attacks. The Company employs a number of measures to prevent, detect and mitigate these threats, which include data and email encryption, strong password management policy, firewall systems, anti-virus software, and frequent backups. However, there is no guarantee such efforts will be successful in preventing a cyber-attack. A successful attack could adversely affect the Company's reputation and results of operations, including through lawsuits by third parties.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

Risk Management and Strategy

UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS The Company's policies and practices are based on frameworks and standards that address risks through a comprehensive, cross-functional approach that assess, identify, monitor, and mitigate material risks from cybersecurity threats as part of the overall enterprise risk management ("ERM") process. This includes the collection and storage of data and being responsive to incidents as they occur. Further, the Company's processes and technology are utilized to develop, implement, and maintain appropriate measures to safeguard information systems in protecting the integrity, availability, and confidentiality of data. Additionally, the Company engages certain third parties to assist in network monitoring and control testing, among other functions of similar capacity.

The Company's cybersecurity program focuses on the following areas:

•

Technological safeguards that are designed to protect the Company's information systems from cybersecurity threats, including the prevention and detection of system applications, access controls, and firewalls, which the Company assesses the vulnerability and severity of potential cybersecurity threats and makes necessary improvements.

•

Utilization of third parties as part of the Company's risk-based approach in identifying and overseeing cybersecurity risks.

•

The Company maintains an incident plan that addresses the Company's response to a cybersecurity event, which is periodically reviewed and updated.

While the Company is working to adopt the National Institute of Standards and Technology ("NIST") cybersecurity framework, the Company's on-going investment in information systems and utilization of external 3rd parties represents the best means for extensively testing both the design and operational effectiveness of cybersecurity controls, and to ensure continuity and functionality of the Company's operating systems.

As of the date of this report, the Company has not experienced any material cybersecurity events. However, the presence of new or more advanced forms of cybersecurity threats could have a material and adverse impact on the business, results of operations, and financial position. For further discussion relating to this topic, see Item 1A. Risk Factors "The Company's information technology systems may be negatively affected by cybersecurity threats."

Governance

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has the responsibility of overseeing the Company's cybersecurity risks. The Director of Information Technology provides periodic updates to the Board of Directors regarding actions taken to mitigate the Company's exposure and protection from cybersecurity risks. Management routinely evaluates the Company's security processes, procedures, and systems to determine if enhancements are needed to reduce the possibility of a future cybersecurity event. This includes safeguards implemented by the Company, such as a multi-factor authentication process; restricted firewall settings; network monitoring, email phishing tests, and enhancing the Company's backup recovery strategy, among others.

The Director of Information Technology is responsible for assessing, monitoring, and managing the Company's cybersecurity risks. The Director of Information Technology has extensive experience in leading the Company's information systems and has previously led cybersecurity teams for several large global organizations prior to joining the Company.

The Director of Information Technology, along with members of management, inform the Audit Committee on cybersecurity risks by providing periodic updates regarding (i) Status of ongoing cybersecurity initiatives and strategies, (ii) The overall state of the Company's security program and potential exposure to risks, and (iii) Incident reports and learning from any cybersecurity events. Further, the Director of Information Technology maintains an open dialogue regarding any significant developments in cybersecurity risks, ensuring the Audit Committee's oversight is proactive and responsive.

In addition to periodic updates to the Audit Committee, the Director of Information Technology, in his capacity, regularly informs the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and the Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") regarding matters related to cybersecurity risks and incidents. This ensures the highest level of management are informed of potential risks associated with cybersecurity that could have a material and adverse effect on the Company.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

Certain statements contained in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A"), which can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "will," "expect," "continue," "remains," "intend," "aim," "should," "prospects," "could," "future," "potential," "believes," "plans," "likely," and "probable," or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act and are subject to the safe harbors created thereby. These statements should be considered as subject to the many risks and uncertainties that exist in the Company's operations and business environment. Such risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected as a result of many factors, including, but not limited to, those under the headings Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward Looking Information and Item 1A. Risk Factors.

The analysis presented below and discussed in more detail throughout this MD&A was organized to provide instructive information for better understanding the Company's results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. However, this MD&A should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including the notes thereto and the risk factors contained herein. The Company's fiscal year ends on January 31. Years, results and balances described as 2024 and 2023 are for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The Company is engaged in the manufacture and sale of products in one reportable segment: Piping Systems. Since the Company's revenues are significantly dependent upon discrete projects, the Company's operating results in any reporting period could be negatively impacted as a result of variations in the level of the Company's discrete project orders or delays in the timing of the specific project phases.

The tabular information presented throughout this MD&A is in thousands, except per share data, or unless otherwise specified.

Year ended January 31, 2025 Compared to year ended January 31, 2024

Net sales

Net sales were $158.4 million and $150.7 million in the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase of $7.7 million was primarily a result of higher sales volumes in the Middle East and Canada.

Gross profit

Gross profit was $53.2 million, or 34% of net sales and $41.5 million, or 28% of net sales, in the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase of $11.7 million was driven by higher sales volumes and improved gross margins in the Middle East and Canada.

General and administrative expense

General and administrative expenses were $28.0 million and $22.6 million in the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase of $5.4 million was primarily related to higher compensation costs and professional fees.

Selling expenses

Selling expenses were $4.9 million and $5.5 million in the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease of $0.6 million was driven by lower payroll expenses during the year.

Table of Contents

Interest expense

Interest expense was $1.9 million and $2.3 million in the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease of $0.4 million was related to decreased borrowings and, to a lesser extent, lower interest rates.

Other income (expense)

Other income was $0.1 million, as compared to other expense of $(1.2) million in the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The change relates mainly to a certain one-time non-recurring charge in connection with a non-cash pre-tax settlement resulting from the termination of the Company's pension plan.

Income taxes

The Company's worldwide effective tax rates ("ETR") were 29.1% and (33.6%) in the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The change in ETR was largely due to changes in the mix of income and loss in various tax jurisdictions and the release of the partial domestic valuation allowance in the prior year. For further information, see Note 7 - Income taxes, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net income attributable to common stock

Net income attributable to common stock was $9.0 million and $10.5 million in the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in net income was a result of the changes discussed above, less amounts attributable to non-controlling interest.

Liquidity and capital resources

Cash and cash equivalents were $15.7 million and $5.8 million as of January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024, respectively. On January 31, 2025, approximately $0.3 million was held in the United States, and $15.4 million was held by the Company's foreign subsidiaries. The Company's working capital was $54.7 million on January 31, 2025 compared to $41.1 million on January 31, 2024. As of January 31, 2025, the Company had $3.7 million of borrowing capacity under the Renewed Senior Credit Facility (as defined below) in North America and $15.6 million of borrowing capacity under its foreign revolving credit agreements. The Company had $6.8 million borrowed under the Renewed Senior Credit Facility and $4.8 million borrowed under its foreign revolving credit agreements at January 31, 2025.

Net cash provided by operating activities in the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024 was $13.9 million and $14.7 million, respectively. The current year decrease of $0.8 million was due primarily to a decrease in accounts payable and customer deposits, partially offset by a reduction in receivables, prepaid expenses and other current assets, as compared to the prior year.

Net cash used in investing activities in the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024 was $2.8 million and $11.1 million, respectively. The decrease of $8.3 million was due to less investment activity in capital assets during the year, mainly in the United States and Canada.

Net cash used in financing activities in the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024 was $0.9 million and $3.3 million, respectively. The decrease of $2.4 million during the year ended January 31, 2025 consisted, in part, from no share repurchase activity as compared to the use of the remaining $1.0 million authorized as part of the Company's share repurchase program during the year ended January 31, 2024. Additionally, a net repayment was made of borrowings under the Company's credit facilities of approximately $0.2 million, as compared to a net repayment of approximately $1.3 million during the year ended January 31, 2024. Further, debt totaled $24.5 million and $25.7 million as of January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For additional information, see Note 5 - Debt, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company believes it will have the ability to satisfy all working capital needs and any planned capital expenditures for the twelve months following the issuance of the Consolidated Financial Statements, based on its existing cash on hand, cash flows from operations, and available credit facilities.

There was no restricted cash held in the United States on January 31, 2025 or January 31, 2024. Restricted cash held by foreign subsidiaries was $1.4 million as of January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Restricted cash held by foreign subsidiaries related to fixed deposits that also serve as security deposits and guarantees.

Financing

Revolving lines - North America.

On September 20, 2018, the Company and certain of its U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries (collectively, together with the Company, the “North American Loan Parties”) entered into a Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, National Association ("PNC"), as administrative agent and lender, providing for a three-year $18 million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, subject to a borrowing base including various reserves (the “Senior Credit Facility”).

On September 17, 2021, the North American Loan Parties executed an extension of the Credit Agreement with PNC, providing for a new five-year $18 million senior secured revolving credit facility, subject to a borrowing base including various reserves (the “Renewed Senior Credit Facility”). The Company's obligations under the Renewed Senior Credit Facility are currently guaranteed by Perma-Pipe Canada, Inc. Each of the North American Loan Parties other than Perma-Pipe Canada, Inc. is a borrower under the Renewed Senior Credit Facility (collectively, the “Borrowers”).

The Borrowers have used and will continue to use borrowings under the Renewed Senior Credit Facility (i) to fund future capital expenditures; (ii) to fund ongoing working capital needs; and (iii) for other corporate purposes, including potentially additional stock repurchases. Borrowings under the Renewed Senior Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to an alternate base rate, SOFR rate index, plus, in each case, an applicable margin. The applicable margin is based on a fixed charge coverage ratio ("FCCR") range. Interest on alternate base rate borrowings is the alternate base rate (as defined in the Renewed Senior Credit Facility) plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.50%, based on the FCCR in the most recently reported period. Interest on SOFR rate borrowings is the SOFR rate (as defined in the Renewed Senior Credit Facility) plus an applicable margin ranging from 2.00% to 2.50%, based on the FCCR in the most recently reported period, as well as an additional SOFR adjustment ranging from 0.10% to 0.25%, based on the term of the interest period. Additionally, the Borrowers pay a 0.25% per annum facility fee on the unused portion of the Renewed Senior Credit Facility.

Subject to certain exceptions, borrowings under the Renewed Senior Credit Facility are secured by substantially all of the North American Loan Parties’ assets. The Renewed Senior Credit Facility matures on September 20, 2026. Subject to certain qualifications and exceptions, the Renewed Senior Credit Facility contains covenants that, among other things, restrict the North American Loan Parties’ ability to create liens, merge or consolidate, consummate acquisitions, make investments, dispose of assets, incur debt, and pay dividends and other distributions. In addition, the North American Loan Parties may not make capital expenditures in excess of $5.0 million annually, plus a limited carryover of unused amounts. Further, the North American Loan Parties may not make repurchases of the Company's common stock in excess of $3.0 million.

The Renewed Senior Credit Facility also contains financial covenants requiring the North American Loan Parties to achieve a ratio of its EBITDA (as defined in the Renewed Senior Credit Facility) to the sum of scheduled cash principal payments on indebtedness for borrowed money and interest payments on the advances under the Renewed Senior Credit Facility to be not less than 1.10 to 1.00 for any five consecutive days in which the undrawn availability is less than $3.0 million or any day in which the undrawn availability is less than $2.0 million. As of January 31, 2025, the calculated ratio was greater than 1.10 to 1.00. In order to cure any future breach of these covenants by the North American Loan Parties, the Company may repatriate cash from any of its foreign subsidiaries that are otherwise not a party to the Renewed Senior Credit Facility in an amount which, when added to the amount of the Company’s Consolidated EBITDA, would result in compliance on a pro forma basis. The Company was in compliance with respect to these covenants as of January 31, 2025.

The Renewed Senior Credit Facility contains customary events of default. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, then PNC may terminate all commitments to extend further credit and declare all amounts outstanding under the Renewed Senior Credit Facility due and payable immediately. In addition, if any of the North American Loan Parties or certain of their subsidiaries become the subject of voluntary or involuntary proceedings under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, then any outstanding obligations under the Renewed Senior Credit Facility will automatically become immediately due and payable. Loans outstanding under the Renewed Senior Credit Facility will bear interest at a rate of 2.00% per annum in excess of the otherwise applicable rate (i) while a bankruptcy event of default exists or (ii) upon the lender's request, during the continuance of any other event of default.

As of January 31, 2025, the Company had borrowed an aggregate of $ 6.8 million at a rate of 9.0% and had $ 3.7 million available under the Renewed Senior Credit Facility. As of January 31, 2024, the Company had borrowed an aggregate of $ 5.5 million and had $ 4.0 million available under the Renewed Senior Credit Facility.

As of January 31, 2025, the facility has an interest rate of approximately 7.9% and expires in July 2025. The Company had borrowed an aggregate of $0.4 million and $0.2 million as of January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024, respectively, and is presented as a component of current maturities of long-term debt in the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

Egypt

In June 2021, and as renewed or amended subsequently thereafter, the Company's Egyptian subsidiary entered into a credit arrangement with a bank in Egypt for a revolving line of 100.0 million Egyptian Pounds (approximately $2.0 million at January 31, 2025). This credit arrangement is in the form of project financing at rates competitive in Egypt. The line is secured by certain assets (such as accounts receivable) of the Company's Egyptian subsidiary. Among other covenants, the credit arrangement established a maximum leverage ratio allowable and restricted the Company's Egyptian subsidiary's ability to undertake any additional debt. As of January 31, 2025, the facility has an interest rate of approximately 20.8%. Additionally, this credit arrangement was renewed in November 2024 with substantially the same terms and conditions and expires in November 2025. As of January 31, 2025, the Company had an immaterial amount outstanding with respect to this credit arrangement, and approximately $1.4 million outstanding at January 31, 2024, respectively, and is presented as a component of current maturities of long-term debt in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Further, as of January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024, the Company had unused borrowing capacity of $2.0 million and $3.2 million, respectively.

In December 2021, the Company entered into a credit arrangement for project financing with a bank of Egypt for 28.2 million Egyptian Pounds. As this project has progressed and the Company received collections, the facility has decreased to a current amount of 2.1 million Egyptian Pounds (approximately $0.1 million at January 31, 2025). This credit arrangement is in the form of project financing at rates competitive in Egypt. The line is secured by the contract for a project being financed by the Company's Egyptian subsidiary. The facility has an interest rate of approximately 20.8% and, as of November 2022, is no longer available for borrowings by the Company. The facility will expire in connection with final customer balance collections and the completion of the project. As of January 31, 2025, the Company had an insignificant amount outstanding, and approximately $ 0.1 million outstanding at January 31, 2024, respectively, and is presented as a component of current maturities of long-term debt in the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

Saudi Arabia

In March 2022, the Company's Saudi Arabian subsidiary entered into a credit arrangement with a bank in Saudi Arabia for a revolving line of 37.0 million Saudi Riyal (approximately $ 9.9 million at January 31, 2025 ). This credit arrangement is in the form of project financing at rates competitive in Saudi Arabia. The line is secured by certain assets (such as accounts receivable) of the Company's Saudi Arabian subsidiary. The facility was renewed in May 2024 with substantially the same terms and conditions and expires in May 2025. As of January 31, 2025 , the facility has an interest rate of approximately 9.0% . The Company had borrowed an aggregate of $1.5 million and $3.2 million as of January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024, respectively, and is presented as a component of current maturities of long-term debt in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The unused borrowing availability attributable to this credit arrangement at January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024, was $3.0 million and $6.1 million, respectively.

These credit arrangements are in the form of overdraft facilities and project financing at rates competitive in the countries in which the Company operates. The lines are secured by certain equipment, certain assets (such as accounts receivable and inventory), and a guarantee by the Company. Some credit arrangement covenants require a minimum tangible net worth to be maintained, including maintaining certain levels of intercompany subordinated debt. In addition, some of the revolving credit facilities restrict payment of dividends or undertaking of additional debt. The Company guarantees only a portion of the subsidiaries' debt, including foreign debt. The amount of foreign subsidiary debt guaranteed by the Company was approximately $10 million at January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024.

The Company was in compliance with the covenants under the credit arrangements in the U.A.E., Egypt and Saudi Arabia as of January 31, 2025 . Interest rates were based on (i) the Emirates Inter Bank Offered Rate plus 3.0% to 3.5% per annum for the U.A.E. credit arrangements, two of which have a minimum interest rate of 4.5% per annum; (ii) either the Central Bank of Egypt corporate loan rate plus 1.5% to 3.5% per annum or the stated interest rate in the agreements for the Egypt credit arrangements; and (iii) the Saudi Inter Bank Offered Rate plus 3.5% for the Saudi Arabia credit arrangement. Based on these rates, as of January 31, 2025, the Company's interest rates ranged from 7.9% to 20.8%, with a weighted average rate of 11.6%, and the Company had facility limits totaling $ 34.6 million under these credit arrangements. As of January 31, 2025, $ 16.9 million of availability was used to support letters of credit to guarantee amounts committed for inventory purchases and for performance guarantees. Additionally, the Company had borrowed approximately $2.1 million and had an additional $ 15.6 million of remaining borrowing capacity available under the foreign revolving credit arrangements. The foreign revolving line balances were included as current maturities of long-term debt in the Company's consolidated balance sheets as of January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024.

In June 2023, the Company assumed a promissory note of approximately $ 2.8 million in connection with the formation of the joint venture with GIG. In accordance with the promissory note, all principal is due and payable on the maturity date of April 9, 2026, with the option to prepay, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the maturity date, without premium or penalty.

Mortgages. On July 28, 2016, the Company entered into a mortgage agreement secured by the Company's manufacturing facility located in Alberta, Canada that matures on December 23, 2042. As of January 31, 2025, the remaining balance on the mortgage in Canada is approximately 5.7 million Canadian Dollars ("CAD") (approximately $4.0 million at January 31, 2025). The interest rate is variable, and was 7.1% at January 31, 2025. The principal balance is included as a component of long-term debt, less current maturities in the Company's consolidated balance sheets and is presented net of issuance costs of $0.1 million as of January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024.

Finance obligation - buildings and land.

On April 14, 2021, the Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the "Purchase and Sale Agreement") to sell its land and buildings in Lebanon, Tennessee (the "Property"). Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Company sold the Property for $10.4 million. The transaction generated net cash proceeds of $9.1 million. Concurrently with the sale of the Property, the Company paid off the approximately $0.9 million remaining on the mortgage note on the Property to its lender. The Company used the remaining proceeds to repay its borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility, for strategic investments, and for general corporate needs. Concurrent with the sale of the Property, the Company entered into a fifteen-year lease agreement (the “Lease Agreement”), whereby the Company is leasing back the Property at an annual rental rate of approximately $0.8 million, subject to annual rent increases of 2.0%. Under the Lease Agreement, the Company has four consecutive options to extend the term of the lease by five years for each such option. As of January 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had a net book value relating to this asset of $1.8 million and $1.9 million, respectively.

In accordance with ASC 842, Leases, this transaction was recorded as a failed sale and leaseback as the present value of lease payments exceeded substantially all of the fair value of the underlying asset. The Company utilized an incremental borrowing rate of 8.0% to determine the finance obligation to record for the amounts received and will continue to depreciate the assets. The current portion of the finance obligation of $ 0.2 million is recognized in current maturities of long-term debt and the long-term portion of $ 8.8 million is recognized in long-term finance obligation on the Company's consolidated balance sheets as of January 31, 2025 . The net carrying amount of the financial liability and remaining assets will be zero at the end of the lease term.

Accounts receivable

In 2015, the Company completed a project in the Middle East with billings in the aggregate amount of approximately $41.9 million. The system has not yet been commissioned by the customer. Nevertheless, the Company has settled approximately $40.1 million as of January 31, 2025, with a remaining balance due in the amount of $1.8 million, all of which pertains to retention clauses within the agreements with the Company's customer, and which become payable by the customer when this project is fully tested and commissioned. Of this retention amount, $1.2 million is classified in a long-term asset account.

The Company continues to actively engage in ongoing collection efforts with the customer to ensure full payment of open balances, and at various times throughout 2024 and 2023, the Company received a partial payment to settle $ 0.4 million and $0.6 million of the customer's outstanding balances, respectively. Additionally, the Company has been engaged by the customer to perform additional work in 2025 under customary trade terms that support the continued cooperation between the Company and the customer. As a result, the Company did not reserve any allowance against the remaining outstanding balances as of January 31, 2025 . However, if the Company’s efforts to collect on this account are not successful, the Company may recognize an allowance for all, or substantially all, of any such then uncollected amounts.

Stock repurchase plan

The repurchase program approved on October 4, 2021, authorized the Company to use up to $3.0 million for the purchase of its outstanding shares of common stock. Stock repurchases were permitted to be executed through open market or privately negotiated transactions, depending upon current market conditions and other factors. On December 7, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized the use of $1.0 million remaining under the share repurchase program previously approved on October 4, 2021 that expired on October 3, 2022. During the twelve months ended January 31, 2024, the Company used the remaining $1.0 million of the $3.0 million authorized to repurchase its outstanding shares of common stock. Accordingly, there was no repurchase activity with respect to the Company's shares of common stock during the twelve months ended January 31, 2025.

On August 29, 2024, the Company retired all remaining treasury stock previously acquired under the stock repurchase program. The retirement was recorded as a reduction to common stock based on the par value of the shares, and the excess over par value was recorded as a decrease in retained earnings in accordance with ASC 505-30, Equity - Treasury Stock.

Critical accounting estimates and policies

The Company's significant accounting policies are discussed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The application of certain of these policies requires significant judgments or a historical based estimation process that can affect the results of operations and financial position of the Company, as well as the related footnote disclosures. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and other assumptions that it believes are reasonable. If actual amounts ultimately differ from previous estimates, the revisions are included in the Company's results of operations for the period in which the actual amounts become known.

Revenue recognition. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company recognizes revenue for certain contracts when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. Other contracts recognize revenues using periodic recognition of income. For these contracts, the Company uses the "over time" accounting method. Under this approach, income is recognized in each reporting period based on the status of the uncompleted contracts and the current estimates of costs to complete. The amount of revenue recognized is determined by the relationship of costs incurred to the total estimated costs of the contract. Provisions are made for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes in job performance, job conditions, and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract penalty provisions and final contract settlements, may result in revisions to costs and income. Such revisions are recognized in the period in which they are determined. Claims for additional compensation due to the Company are recognized in contract revenues when realization is probable, the amount can be reliably estimated, and the amount is not subject to reversal. See Note 4 - Revenue recognition, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, for further information relating to input and output accounting methods.

Income taxes. Deferred income taxes have been provided for temporary differences arising from differences in the basis of assets and liabilities for tax and financial reporting purposes. Deferred income taxes on temporary differences have been recorded at the current tax rate. The Company assesses its deferred tax assets for realizability at each reporting period. The Company maintains a partial valuation allowance in the United States against certain deferred tax assets.

The Company recognizes a tax position in its consolidated financial statements only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more likely than not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. For further information, See Note 7 - Income taxes, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

ITEM 9A.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of January 31, 2025. The Company's disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of January 31, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, as described below.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. The Company's management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. As required by Rule 13a-15(c) under the Exchange Act, the Company's management carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2025 . The framework on which such evaluation was based is contained in the report entitled "Internal Control-Integrated Framework" (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

The Company's internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Based on management's evaluation, management has concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2025, due to the material weaknesses identified below.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The material weaknesses are as follows:

	•	We did not design and maintain effective controls in response ot the risks of material misstatement. Specifically, changes to existing controls or the implementation of new controls have not been sufficient to respond to changes to the risks of material misstatement in financial reporting. This contributed to the following material weaknesses;
	•	We did not design and maintain effective certain controls over financial reporting relating to the review and approval of manual journal entries, review of the financial close process, including the statement of cash flows, and review of certain financial policies and procedures;
	•	We did not design and maintain effective controls at operating locations in the Middle East and North Africa ("MENA"), including not maintaining sufficient documentation to support an evaluation that controls over business processes were designed and operating effectively.

These material weaknesses resulted in adjustments to property, plant, and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, trade accounts payable, trade accounts receivable, and the statement of cash flows. These adjustments resulted in a revision of the unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended April 30, 2024, a restatement as of and for the period ended July 31, 2024 and material adjustments as of and for the period ended October 31, 2024.

	•	We did not design and maintain effective controls over information technology general controls ("ITGCs"), specifically controls over the timely review of user access and administrative access to adequately restrict access, program change management, computer operations, and program development;
	•	We did not design and maintain effective controls over managements review of the completeness and accuracy of certain system-generated reports.

These material weaknesses did not result in a misstatement to the Company's annual or interim financial statements.

Each of these material weaknesses could result in a material misstatement of substantially all accounts and disclosures in the Company's annual or interim financial statements that would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Remediation Plan for the Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

To address these matters, the Company has begun implementing its remediation plan. Our ongoing remediation plans include the following:

(i) performing an entity wide risk assessment to identify relevant risks and changes to those relevant risks to our financial reporting; ii) designing and implementing controls to identify and evaluate changes in our business and the impact on our internal control over financial reporting; (iii) engaging outside consultants with expertise relating to ITGCs to document processes, assist in addressing the design and operating ITGCs, monitoring and testing reviews focusing on systems supporting our financial reporting process (iv) designing and maintaining controls and documentation evidencing those ITGCs for knowledge transfer and function changes, including access and program control and change management, computer operations, and program development, (v) designing and maintaining effective controls to review the completeness and accuracy of certain system-generated reports; and (vi) outsourcing certain functions to third-party providers, specifically relating to servers and firewalls, and managed detection and response.

Our remediation plans related to entity level controls, financial reporting controls, and business process controls include:

(i) enhancing the design of controls for the review of and posting of journal entries; (ii) evaluating and updating documented formal accounting policies, financial reporting, processes and procedures; and overall internal control procedures; and (iii) updating the design of controls for the preparation and review of the financial close process, including the statement of cash flows.

In addition to the items noted above, our remediation plans related to our MENA locations include: (i) evaluating and updating the Company's evidence of internal control policies and procedures; (ii) enhancing the design of controls over business processes that are relevant to our MENA locations; and (iii) formalizing our financial reporting processes and procedures.

The Company anticipates the actions described above will strengthen the Company's internal control over financial reporting and will address the related material weaknesses described above. However, the material weaknesses cannot be considered fully remediated until the necessary controls have been appropriately designed and implemented. The remediation processes and procedures will also need to be in operation for a period of time and management conclude through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting which were identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) under the Exchange during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Attestation Report of Registered Public Accounting Firm. This Annual Report does not contain an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm related to internal control over financial reporting because the rules for smaller reporting companies provide an exemption from the attestation requirement.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Perma-Pipe International Holdings, Inc.

Opinion on the financial statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Perma-Pipe International Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of January 31, 2025, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income, of stockholders’ equity and of cash flows for the year then ended, including the related notes and schedule of valuation and qualifying accounts for the year then ended appearing under Item 15, (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of January 31, 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical audit matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Specialty Piping Systems and Coating Revenue Recognition under the Input Method

As described in Notes 2 and 4 to the consolidated financial statements, approximately $46 million of the Company’s revenue for year ended January 31, 2025 relates to specialty piping systems and coating revenue recognized over time under the input method. Under this approach, income is recognized in each reporting period based on the status of the uncompleted contracts and the current estimates of costs to complete. The amount of revenue recognized is determined by the relationship of costs incurred to the total estimated costs of the contract. Generally, these contracts are considered a single performance obligation satisfied over time and due to the custom nature of the goods and services, the "over time" method is the most accurate depiction of the Company’s performance as it measures the value of the goods and services transferred to the customer. Costs include material, labor, and direct costs incurred to satisfy the performance obligations of the contract. Revenue recognition begins when project costs are incurred.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to specialty piping systems and coating revenue recognition under the input method is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the estimated total costs to complete the contracts and (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant assumptions related to the total costs to complete.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included, among others, for certain open contracts (i) testing management’s process for developing the estimated total costs to complete and (ii) evaluating the reasonableness of the significant assumptions used by management related to the estimated total costs to complete. Evaluating the reasonableness of the significant assumptions related to the estimated total costs to complete involved considering (i) the terms of the contracts and other documents that support those estimates ; (ii) using actual costs to date to assess the reasonableness of the estimate of the remaining costs to complete the contract; and (iii) performing a retrospective review of certain open contracts as of January 31, 2024 to evaluate actual costs incurred to estimated costs.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

YEARS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2025 AND 2024

(Tabular amounts in thousands, except per share data, or unless otherwise specified)

Note 1 - Business information

Perma-Pipe International Holdings, Inc. ("PPIH", the "Company", "we", "our" or the "Registrant") was incorporated in Delaware on October 12, 1993. The Company is engaged in the manufacture and sale of products in one distinct segment: Piping Systems.

Fiscal year. The Company's fiscal year ends on January 31. Years, results and balances described as 2024 and 2023 are for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Nature of business. The Company engineers, designs, manufactures and sells specialty piping systems, and leak detection systems. Specialty piping systems include: (i) insulated and jacketed district heating and cooling ("DHC") piping systems for efficient energy distribution from central energy plants to multiple locations, (ii) primary and secondary containment piping systems for transporting chemicals, hazardous fluids and petroleum products, and (iii) the coating and/or insulation of oil and gas gathering and transmission pipelines. The Company's leak detection systems are sold with its piping systems or on a stand-alone basis, to monitor areas where fluid intrusion may contaminate the environment, endanger personal safety, cause a fire hazard, impair essential services or damage equipment or property.

Geographic information. Net sales attributed to a geographic area are based on the destination of the product shipment. Sales to foreign customers were 66.6% in 2024 compared to 65.6% in 2023. Long-lived assets are based on the physical location of the assets and consist of property, plant and equipment.

Note 2 - Significant accounting policies

Use of estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue recognition. During 2024 and 2023 and in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company recognizes revenue for certain contracts when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. Other contracts recognize revenues using periodic recognition of income. For these contracts, the Company uses the "over time" accounting method. Under this approach, income is recognized in each reporting period based on the status of the uncompleted contracts and the current estimates of costs to complete. The amount of revenue recognized is determined by the relationship of costs incurred to the total estimated costs of the contract. Provisions are made for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes in job performance, job conditions, and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract penalty provisions and final contract settlements, may result in revisions to costs and income. Such revisions are recognized in the period in which they are determined. Claims for additional compensation due to the Company are recognized in contract revenues when realization is probable, the amount can be reliably estimated, and the amount is not subject to reversal. See Note 4 - Revenue recognition, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, for further information relating to input and output accounting methods.

Shipping and handling. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of sales, and the amounts invoiced to customers relating to shipping and handling are included in net sales.

Operating cycle. The length of contracts varies but are typically less than one year. The Company includes in current assets and liabilities amounts realizable and payable in the normal course of contract completion unless completion of such contracts extends significantly beyond one year.

Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. This includes all wholly owned subsidiaries as well as certain joint ventures in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Translation of foreign currency. Assets and liabilities of consolidated foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at year-end. Revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the year. The resulting translation adjustments are included in stockholders' equity as part of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Gains or losses on foreign currency transactions and the related tax effects are reflected in net income. The aggregate foreign exchange transaction loss recognized in the income statement was $0.3 million and $0.1 million in 2024 and 2023, respectively. Additionally, translation adjustments attributable to intercompany transactions, such as loans and receivables, are included in stockholders' equity as part of accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Contingencies. The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business, including those involving environmental, tax, product liability and general liability claims. The Company accrues for such liabilities when it is probable that future costs will be incurred, and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Such accruals are based on developments to date, the Company's estimates of the outcomes of these matters, and its experience in contesting, litigating and settling other similar matters. The Company does not currently anticipate the amount of any ultimate liability with respect to these matters will materially affect the Company's financial position, liquidity, or future operations.

Cash and cash equivalents. All highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents was $15.7 million and $5.8 million as of January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. On January 31, 2025, $0.3 million was held in the United States and $15.4 million was held by foreign subsidiaries. On January 31, 2024, less than $0.1 million was held in the United States and $5.7 million was held by foreign subsidiaries.

Table of Contents

Restricted cash. There was no restricted cash held in the United States on January 31, 2025 or 2024. Restricted cash held by foreign subsidiaries was $1.4 million and $1.4 million as of January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Restricted cash held by foreign subsidiaries related to fixed deposits that also serve as security deposits and guarantees.

	2024		2023
Cash and cash equivalents	$	15,716	$	5,845
Restricted cash		1,401		1,395
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as presented in the statement of cash flows	$	17,117	$	7,240

Accounts receivable. The majority of the Company's accounts receivable are due from geographically dispersed contractors and manufacturing companies. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of a customer's financial condition. In the United States, collateral is not generally required. In the United Arab Emirates ("U.A.E."), Saudi Arabia, Egypt and India letters of credit are usually obtained for significant orders. Accounts receivable are due within various time periods specified in the terms applicable to the specific customer and are stated as amounts due from customers net of an allowance for claims and doubtful accounts. Standard payment terms are generally net 30 to 60 days. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable. The assessment of the allowance for credit losses involves certain judgments and estimates. Management estimates the allowance balance using relevant available information from internal and external sources relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The Company may also establish an allowance for credit losses for specific receivables when it is probable that a specific receivable will not be collected and the loss can be reasonably estimated. Past due trade accounts receivable balances are written off when the Company's collection efforts have been unsuccessful in collecting the amount due and the amount is deemed uncollectible. The write off is recorded against the allowance for credit losses.

For the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, no one customer accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's consolidated net sales.

As of January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, no one customer accounted for greater than 10% of accounts receivable.

Concentration of credit risk. The Company maintains its U.S. cash in bank deposit accounts at financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). Cash balances are below FDIC limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company's foreign cash is held in accounts at multiple institutions in the various countries in which the Company operates, limiting the concentration of risk internationally. The Company has a broad customer base doing business in all regions of the United States as well as other areas in the world.

Inventories	$	16,622	$	15,541

Long-lived assets. Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Interest is capitalized in connection with the construction of facilities and amortized over the estimated useful life of the asset. Long-lived assets are reviewed for possible impairment whenever events indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If such a review indicates impairment, the carrying amount of such assets is reduced to an estimated fair value.

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of assets, as presented in the following table. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the remaining life of the lease or its useful life, whichever is shorter. Amortization of finance lease assets is included in depreciation. Depreciation expense was approximately $3.6 million and $3.8 million in the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Less accumulated depreciation				45,673		49,873
Property, plant and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation			$	35,365	$	37,620

Impairment of long-lived assets. The Company's assessment of long-lived assets and other identifiable intangibles is based upon factors that market participants would use in accordance with the accounting guidance for the fair value measurement of assets. At January 31, 2025, the Company performed an assessment to determine whether there were any triggering events that may have occurred which could indicate that the carrying value of the Company's long-lived assets are not recoverable. Based on this assessment, the Company did not identify any triggering events that would indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable with respect to long-lived assets. Accordingly, there was no impairment charge for the year ended January 31, 2025.

Table of Contents

Goodwill. The purchase price of an acquired company is allocated between intangible assets and the net tangible assets of the acquired business with the residual of the purchase price recorded as goodwill. All identifiable goodwill as of January 31, 2025 and 2024, is attributable to the purchase of the remaining 50% interest in Perma-Pipe Canada, Ltd., which occurred in 2016.

The following table provides a reconciliation of changes in the carrying amount of goodwill:

The Company performs an impairment assessment of goodwill annually as of January 31, or more frequently if triggering events occur, based on the estimated fair value of the related reporting unit or intangible asset. At January 31, 2025, the Company performed a qualitative assessment to determine whether there were any triggering events that may have occurred which could indicate that more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit did not exceed its carrying amount. Based on this assessment, the Company did not identify any triggering events that would indicate that the fair value is less than the carrying value of the reporting unit for the year ended January 31, 2025. Accordingly, performing a quantitative goodwill impairment test was not required.

Other intangible assets with definite lives. The Company owns several patents including those covering features of its piping and electronic leak detection systems. Patents are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over a period not to exceed the legal lives of the patents. The Company expenses costs incurred to renew or extend the term of intangible assets. Gross patents were $2.7 million as of January 31, 2025 and 2024. Accumulated amortization was approximately $2.6 million as of January 31, 2025 and 2024. Amortization over the next five fiscal years will be less than $0.1 million and an insignificant amount thereafter. Amortization expense is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average period of 9.1 years.

Research and development. Research and development expenses consist of materials, salaries and related expenses of engineering personnel and outside services for product development projects. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expense was approximately $0.1 million and $0.5 million in the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Income taxes. Deferred income taxes have been provided for temporary differences arising from differences in the basis of assets and liabilities for tax and financial reporting purposes. Deferred income taxes on temporary differences have been recorded at the current tax rate. The Company assesses its deferred tax assets and liabilities for realizability at each reporting period. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized.

One of the base broadening provisions of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 ("Tax Act") is the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income provisions ("GILTI"). In accordance with guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") staff, the Company has adopted an accounting policy to treat any GILTI inclusions as a period cost if and when incurred. Thus, for the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, deferred taxes were computed without consideration of the possible future impact of the GILTI provisions, and any current year impact was recorded as a part of the current portion of income tax expense.

Fair value of financial instruments. The Company classifies cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable based on carrying values that approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying amount of the Company's short-term debt, revolving line of credit and long-term debt approximate fair value because the majority of the amounts outstanding accrue interest at variable rates.

Table of Contents

Net income per common share. Earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (basic). The Company reported net income in 2024 and 2023. The Company adjusted for dilutive shares in 2024 and 2023, assuming conversion, exercise, or contingent issuance of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per share. The dilutive shares are in the following table:

Basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding	2024		2023
Basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding		7,956		7,977
Dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock units		59		96
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding assuming full dilution		8,015		8,073

Restricted stock and stock options not included in the computation of diluted EPS of common stock because the option exercise prices exceeded the average market prices		1		87
Canceled options during the year		-		(17	)
Restricted stock and stock options with an exercise price below the average stock price		59		96

Equity-based compensation. The Company issues or has issued various types of stock-based awards to employees and directors: restricted stock, deferred stock and stock options. Non-cash compensation expense associated with restricted stock is based on the fair value of the common stock at the grant date, and amortized using the straight line method over a vesting period range of one to four years. Compensation expense associated with deferred stock which has been awarded to the Board of Directors (non-employee) is based upon the fair value of the common stock at the date of grant, and since the grant vests immediately it is expensed on the date of the grant. Stock compensation expense for stock options is recognized ratably over the requisite service period of the award. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model is utilized to estimate the fair value of option awards.

Treasury Stock. In accordance with ASC 505, Equity, the Company accounts for share repurchases pursuant to the repurchase program under the cost method. This results in recognizing the shares as treasury stock, a reduction of stockholders' equity on the Company's consolidated balance sheets and on the Company's consolidated statements of stockholders' equity. These amounts include costs associated with the acquisition of the shares. See Note 11 - Treasury stock for further detail.

Segments. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer is the CODM, and he uses the Company's consolidated financial information in determining how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company has determined that it operates as one segment.

Recent accounting pronouncements. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The standard update requires additional disclosures, including further details about segment expenses regarding a public entity's reportable segments on an annual and interim basis. The additional segment disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted this standard update in fiscal 2024. The standard adoption resulted in additional disclosures but did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. See Note 13 - Segment reporting, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for related disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. Pursuant to this standard update, companies are required to provide additional information, which is primarily attributable to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The standard update is to be applied prospectively, with retrospective application permitted. The new income tax disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is still evaluating this standard update but does not expect it to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (Subtopic 220-40). The standard update requires additional disclosures related to the disaggregation of income statement expenses. The disaggregation of income statement expense disclosures set forth in this standard update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is still evaluating the impact this standard update but does not expect it to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 3 - Retention

A retention receivable is a portion of an outstanding receivable balance amount withheld by a customer until a contract is fully completed as specified in the contract. As of January 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had short-term retention receivables of $3.3 million and $2.4 million, respectively, which were included as a component of trade accounts receivable. Additionally, the Company had long-term retention receivables of $2.6 million and $1.7 million as of January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The long-term retention receivable balances were included as a component of other long-term assets in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. See Note 2 - Accounts receivable for further information regarding the future realization of these long-term balances.

In 2015, the Company completed a project in the Middle East with billings in the aggregate amount of approximately $41.9 million. The system has not yet been commissioned by the customer. Nevertheless, the Company has settled approximately $ 40.1 million as of January 31, 2025, with a remaining balance due in the amount of $ 1.8 million, all of which pertains to retention clauses within the agreements with the Company's customer, and which become payable by the customer when this project is fully tested and commissioned. Of this retention amount, $ 1.2 million is classified as a long-term asset.

The Company has been actively engaged in ongoing collection efforts with the customer to ensure full payment of open balances, and at various times throughout 2025 and 2024, the Company received a partial payment to settle $0.4 million and $0.6 million of the customer's outstanding balances, respectively, including an additional $0.6 million that was received subsequent to the end of the year. Additionally, the Company has been engaged by the customer to perform additional work in 2025 under customary trade credit terms that support the continued cooperation between the Company and the customer. As a result, the Company did not reserve any allowance against this outstanding receivable as of January 31, 2025. However, if the Company's efforts to collect on this account are not successful, the Company may recognize an allowance for all, or substantial all, of any such uncollected amounts.

For further information regarding accounts receivable, see Note 2 - Significant accounting policies, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 4 - Revenue recognition

The Company accounts for its revenues under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Revenue from contracts with customers

The Company defines a contract as an agreement that has approval and commitment from both parties, defined rights and identifiable payment terms, which ensures the contract has commercial substance and that collectability is reasonably assured.

The Company’s standard revenue transactions are classified into two main categories:

Systems and Coating - which include all bundled products in which Perma-Pipe engineers, and manufactures pre-insulated specialty piping systems mainly relating to the district heating and cooling and oil & gas markets.

Products - which include cables, leak detection products, heat trace products, material/goods not bundled with piping or flowline systems, and field services not bundled into a project contract.

In accordance with ASC 606-10-25-27 through 29, the Company recognizes specialty piping and coating systems revenue over time as the manufacturing process progresses because one of the following conditions exist:

The customer owns the material that is being insulated or coated, so the customer controls the asset and thus the work-in-process; or

The customer controls the work-in-process due to the custom nature of the pre-insulated, fabricated system being manufactured, which has no alternative future use, and there is a right to payment for work performed to date plus profit margin.

Products revenue is recognized when goods are shipped or services are performed (ASC 606-10-25-30).

Table of Contents

A breakdown of the Company's revenues by revenue class for the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024 are as follows:

	2024					2023
	Sales		% to Total			Sales		% to Total
Products	$	12,801		8	%	$	10,368		7	%

Specialty Piping Systems and Coating
Revenue recognized under input method		45,606		29	%		51,977		34	%
Revenue recognized under output method		99,977		63	%		88,323		59	%
Total	$	158,384		100	%	$	150,668		100	%

The input method is used by certain operating entities to measure revenue by the costs incurred to date relative to the estimated costs to satisfy the contract over time. Generally, these contracts are considered a single performance obligation satisfied over time and due to the custom nature of the goods and services, the "over time" method is the most accurate depiction of the Company’s performance as it measures the value of the goods and services transferred to the customer. Costs include all material, labor, and direct costs incurred to satisfy the performance obligations of the contract. Revenue recognition begins when projects costs are incurred.

The output method is used by all other operating entities to measure revenue by the direct measurement of the outputs produced relative to the remaining goods promised under the contract. Due to the types of end customers, generally these contracts require formal inspection protocols or specific export documentation for units produced, or produced and shipped, therefore, the output method is the most faithful depiction of the Company’s performance. Depending on the conditions of the contract, revenue may be recognized based on units produced, inspected and held by the Company prior to shipment or on units produced, inspected and shipped.

Some of the Company’s operating entities invoice and collect milestones or other contractual obligations prior to the transfer of goods and services, but do not recognize revenue until the performance obligations are satisfied under the methods discussed above.

Contract modifications that occur prior to the start of the manufacturing process will supersede the original contract and revenue is recognized using the modified contract value. Contract modifications that occur during the manufacturing process (changes in scope of work, job performance, material costs, and/or final contract settlements) are recognized in the period in which the revisions are known. Provisions are made for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts in the contract liabilities account in the period in which such losses are determined.

The transaction price associated with the Company's contracts with customers are generally determined based on the fixed amount of consideration as specified in a contract that is generally not subject to change. Additionally, from time to time the transaction price may also include variable consideration in certain instances where it is deemed probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. The aggregate of these amounts represents the total transaction price, which excludes amounts that are attributable to sales and value added taxes, or amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The total transaction price is then allocated to the performance obligations that is eventually recognized as revenue based on the project type and the method that is used to measure the transfer of promised goods and services to customers. Additionally, transaction prices relating to cost-plus contracts are determined by applying the applicable profit margin to costs incurred on contracts, whereas transaction prices relating to fixed price contracts are determined on a lump-sum basis. Further, standard payment terms are generally net 30 to 60 days, which is customer specific.

Contract assets and liabilities

Contract assets represent revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed for contract work in progress for which the Company has a valid contract and an enforceable right to payment for work completed. Contract liabilities represent billings in excess of costs for contract work in progress for which the Company has a valid contract and an enforceable right to payment for work completed. Both customer billings and the satisfaction (or partial satisfaction) of the performance obligation(s) occur throughout the manufacturing process and impact the period end balances in these accounts. In addition, contract assets include receivables or amounts that are billable beyond the passage of time. For additional information, see Note 3 - Retention, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and Unbilled accounts receivable, as further described below.

Table of Contents

The Company anticipates that substantially all costs incurred on uncompleted contracts as of January 31, 2025 will be billed and collected within one year.

The following table shows the reconciliation of the cost in excess of billings and billings in excess of costs:

	2024			2023
Costs incurred on uncompleted contracts	$	11,621		$	21,912
Estimated earnings		9,366			11,270
Earned revenue		20,987			33,182
Less billings to date		19,302			30,580
Costs in excess of billings, net	$	1,685		$	2,602

Contract liabilities: Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts		(1,249	)		(495	)
Costs in excess of billings, net	$	1,685		$	2,602

Substantially all of the $0.5 million and $1.3 million contract liabilities balances at January 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, were recognized in revenues during 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Unbilled accounts receivable

The Company has recorded $18.9 million and $16.6 million of unbilled accounts receivable on the consolidated balance sheets as of January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, from revenues generated by certain of its subsidiaries. The Company has fulfilled all performance obligations and has recorded revenue under the respective contracts. The deliverables under these contracts have been accepted by the customer and billings will be made once the customer takes possession of or arranges shipping for the products. The Company anticipates that substantially all of the amounts included in unbilled accounts receivable as of January 31, 2025 will be billed within one year.

Practical expedients

Costs to obtain a contract are not considered to be incremental or material, and project duration generally does not span more than one year. Accordingly, the Company applies a practical expedient for these types of costs and as such, are expensed in the period incurred.

As a result of the Company's contracts having a duration of less than one year, a practical expedient was applied regarding disclosure of the aggregate amount and future timing of performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially satisfied as of the end of the reporting period.

Revolving lines - North America. On September 20, 2018, the Company and certain of its U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries (collectively, together with the Company, the “North American Loan Parties”) entered into a Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, National Association ("PNC"), as administrative agent and lender, providing for a three-year $18 million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, subject to a borrowing base including various reserves (the “Senior Credit Facility”).

Table of Contents

As of January 31, 2025, the Company had borrowed an aggregate of $6.8 million at a rate of 9.0% and had $3.7 million available under the Renewed Senior Credit Facility. As of January 31, 2024, the Company had borrowed an aggregate of $5.5 million and had $4.0 million available under the Renewed Senior Credit Facility.

Finance obligation - buildings and land. On April 14, 2021, the Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the "Purchase and Sale Agreement") to sell its land and building in Lebanon, Tennessee (the "Property"). Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Company sold the Property for $10.4 million. The transaction generated net cash proceeds of $9.1 million. Concurrently with the sale of the Property, the Company paid off the approximately $0.9 million remaining on the mortgage note on the Property to its lender. The Company used the remaining proceeds to repay its borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility, for strategic investments, and for general corporate needs. Concurrent with the sale of the Property, the Company entered into a fifteen-year lease agreement (the “Lease Agreement”), whereby the Company is leasing back the Property at an annual rental rate of approximately $0.8 million, subject to annual rent increases of 2.0%. Under the Lease Agreement, the Company has four consecutive options to extend the term of the lease by five years for each such option. As of January 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had a net book value relating to this asset of $1.8 million and $1.9 million, respectively.

In accordance with ASC 842, Leases, this transaction was recorded as a failed sale and leaseback as the present value of lease payments exceeded substantially all of the fair value of the underlying asset. The Company utilized an incremental borrowing rate of 8.0% to determine the finance obligation to record for the amounts received and will continue to depreciate the assets. The current portion of the finance obligation of $0.2 million is recognized in current maturities of long-term debt and the long-term portion of $8.8 million is recognized in long-term finance obligation on the Company's consolidated balance sheets as of January 31, 2025. The net carrying amount of the financial liability and remaining assets will be zero at the end of the lease term.

Revolving lines - foreign . The Company also has credit arrangements used by its Middle Eastern subsidiaries in the U.A.E., Egypt, and Saudi Arabia as further described below:

United Arab Emirates

Table of Contents

Egypt

In June 2021, and as renewed or amended subsequently thereafter, the Company's Egyptian subsidiary entered into a credit arrangement with a bank in Egypt for a revolving line of 100.0 million Egyptian Pounds (approximately $ 2.0 million at January 31, 2025). This credit arrangement is in the form of project financing at rates competitive in Egypt. The line is secured by certain assets (such as accounts receivable) of the Company's Egyptian subsidiary. Among other covenants, the credit arrangement established a maximum leverage ratio allowable and restricted the Company's Egyptian subsidiary's ability to undertake any additional debt. As of January 31, 2025, the facility has an interest rate of approximately 20.8%. Additionally, this credit arrangement was renewed in November 2024 with substantially the same terms and conditions and expires in November 2025. As of January 31, 2025, the Company had an immaterial amount outstanding with respect to this credit arrangement, and approximately $1.4 million outstanding at January 31, 2024, respectively, and is presented as a component of current maturities of long-term debt in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Further, as of January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024 , the Company had unused borrowing capacity of $2.0 million and $3.2 million, respectively.

Saudi Arabia

The Company was in compliance with the covenants under the credit arrangements in the U.A.E., Egypt and Saudi Arabia as of January 31, 2025 . Interest rates were based on (i) the Emirates Inter Bank Offered Rate plus 3.0% to 3.5% per annum for the U.A.E. credit arrangements, two of which have a minimum interest rate of 4.5% per annum; (ii) either the Central Bank of Egypt corporate loan rate plus 1.5% to 3.5% per annum or the stated interest rate in the agreements for the Egypt credit arrangements; and (iii) the Saudi Inter Bank Offered Rate plus 3.5% for the Saudi Arabia credit arrangement. Based on these rates, as of January 31, 2025, the Company's interest rates ranged from 7.9% to 20.8%, with a weighted average rate of 11.6%, and the Company had facility limits totaling $ 34.6 million under these credit arrangements. As of January 31, 2025, $ 16.9 million of availability was used to support letters of credit to guarantee amounts committed for inventory purchases and for performance guarantees. Additionally, the Company had borrowed approximately $ 2.1 million and had an additional $ 15.6 million of remaining borrowing capacity available under the foreign revolving credit arrangements. The foreign revolving line balances were included as current maturities of long-term debt in the Company's consolidated balance sheets as of January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024.

Table of Contents

Note 6 - Leases

The Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842, Leases. Under this guidance, arrangements meeting the definition of a lease are classified as operating or financing leases, and are recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, operating lease liabilities short-term, and operating lease liabilities long-term in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property, plant and equipment, current maturities of long-term debt, and long-term debt less current maturities in the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease calculated by discounting fixed lease payments over the lease term at the rate implicit in the lease or the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are increased by interest and reduced by payments each period, and the ROU asset is amortized over the lease term. For operating leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the ROU asset result in straight-line rent expense over the lease term. For finance leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the ROU asset results in front-loaded expense over the lease term. Variable lease expenses are recorded when incurred. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term.

As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term and amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.

In calculating the ROU asset and lease liability, the Company elects to combine lease and non-lease components. Additionally, the Company excludes short-term leases having an initial term of 12 months or less in accordance with the new guidance as an accounting policy election, and recognizes rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Operating Leases. In August 2020, the Company entered into a new lease in Abu Dhabi for land upon which the Company has built a production facility. The annual payments are approximately 1.2 million U.A.E. Dirhams (approximately $0.3 million at January 31, 2025), inclusive of rent and common charges, with escalation clauses in the agreement. Rent payments were deferred until August 2022 and have now commenced. The lease expires in August 2050.

In March and December 2022, the Company served Notices of Termination to its lessor for the Company's lease of the land and buildings in Fujairah in the U.A.E. The Company served the Notices of Termination in connection with the Company's intended relocation to a different facility in Abu Dhabi. The Company vacated portions of the leased space in December 2022 and the remaining space was vacated in December 2024. The first Notice of Termination required that the Company pay an additional amount equal to three months' rent after that termination to enable the lessor to prepare the assets for lease by another party. As a result of the termination, the Company has recognized adjustments to the amounts recorded in the consolidated financial statements as of January 31, 2024. The termination resulted in decreases of $0.4 million, $6.0 million and $5.5 million to operating lease liability short-term, operating lease liability long-term and operating lease right-of-use asset, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheets as of January 31, 2024. The termination also resulted in a decrease in rent expense of $1.1 million in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended January 31, 2024. There were no other adjustments in connection with these terminations for the year ended January 31, 2025.

At January 31, 2025, the Company had total operating lease liabilities of $8.8 million and operating ROU assets of $8.2 million, which are reflected in the consolidated balance sheets.

Finance Leases. The Company has several lease agreements, with lease terms of one to fifteen years, which consist of real estate, vehicles and office equipment leases. These leases do not require any contingent rental payments, impose any financial restrictions or contain any residual value guarantees. Certain of the Company’s leases include renewal options and escalation clauses; renewal options have not been included in the calculation of the lease liabilities and ROU assets as the Company is not reasonably certain to exercise the options. Variable expenses generally represent the Company’s share of the landlord’s operating expenses. The Company does not have any arrangements where it acts as a lessor, other than one sub-lease arrangement.

At January 31, 2025, the Company also had finance lease liabilities of $0.1 million included in current maturities of long-term debt and long-term debt less current maturities, and finance ROU assets of $0.3 million which were included in property plant and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation in the consolidated balance sheets.

As a result of the one-time transition tax from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“Tax Act”), the Company estimates that distributions from foreign subsidiaries will no longer be subject to incremental U.S. federal income tax as they will either be remittances of previously taxed earnings and profits or eligible for a full dividends received deduction to offset any U.S. federal income tax liability on the undistributed earnings. However, upon repatriation, various state taxes and foreign withholding taxes may be levied on such amounts. Determination of the amount of unrecognized state and local tax liability is not practicable due to the complexities associated with its hypothetical calculation. Current and future earnings in the Company's subsidiaries in Canada and Egypt are not permanently reinvested. Earnings from these subsidiaries are subject to tax in their local jurisdiction, and withholding taxes in these jurisdictions are considered. The Company's liability was $0.8 million as of January 31, 2025 and 2024, related to these taxes.

U.S. income and foreign withholding taxes have not been recognized on the excess of the amount for financial reporting over the tax basis of investments in foreign subsidiaries that is indefinitely reinvested outside the United States. The Company intends to permanently reinvest the undistributed earnings of its Middle Eastern and Indian subsidiaries. The Middle Eastern and Indian subsidiaries have unremitted earnings of $50.6 million and $13.3 million, respectively, as of January 31, 2025. Unremitted earnings of $25.9 million in the United Arab Emirates would not be subject to withholding tax in the event of a distribution, and $24.7 million of unremitted earnings in Saudi Arabia would be subject to withholding tax of $1.2 million. The Company has not recorded a deferred tax liability related to any financial reporting basis over tax basis in connection with the Company's investment in these foreign subsidiaries as it is not practical to estimate.

The Company's worldwide effective tax rates ("ETR") were 29.1% and (33.6%) in the year ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The change in the ETR was largely due to changes in the mix of income and loss in various tax jurisdictions, and the release of the partial domestic valuation allowance in the prior year.

Table of Contents

As of January 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had deferred tax assets of $4.9 million and $6.2 million, respectively, related to gross U.S. Federal net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards of $23.8 million and $30.1 million, respectively. Of this amount, $16.4 million will begin to expire between tax years 2036 and 2037, with the remainder not subject to expiration. As of January 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had deferred tax assets of $1.5 million related to gross state NOLs of $21.9 million and $21.0 million, respectively, that expire between 2025 and 2044. The Company has released the valuation allowance recorded against U.S. Federal NOLs during the year ended January 31, 2024, and continues to maintain a valuation allowance against its state NOLs. As of January 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had deferred tax assets of $0.3 million related to gross foreign NOLs of $1.3 million for its subsidiary in Saudi Arabia, which can be carried forward indefinitely and does not have a valuation allowance recorded against it. The ultimate realization of the tax benefit is dependent upon the future generation of taxable income in the respective tax jurisdictions.

The Company periodically reviews the adequacy of its valuation allowance in all of the tax jurisdictions in which it operates, evaluates future sources of taxable income and tax planning strategies and may make further adjustments based on management's outlook for continued profits in each jurisdiction.

Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit the use of the existing deferred tax assets. A significant piece of objective negative evidence previously evaluated was the domestic cumulative loss incurred over a three-year period. The Company achieved three years of cumulative income in the U.S. federal tax jurisdiction as of the period ended January 31, 2024. As such, management determined that the domestic deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be realized and have released the valuation allowance accordingly during the period ended January 31, 2024. The Company continues to maintain a valuation allowance against certain domestic deferred tax assets including its foreign tax credit carryovers, R&D credit carryovers, and state deferred tax assets. Management has released $0.2 million of valuation allowance related to R&D credit carryovers in the period ending January 31, 2025 based upon expectations of future taxable income. The amount of the domestic deferred tax assets considered realizable, however, could be increased if there are changes to the objective positive and negative evidence considered.

The Company has a deferred tax asset of $2.6 million for U.S. foreign tax credits after considering the impact of the repatriated foreign earnings and the one-time transition tax. The foreign tax credit deferred tax asset is fully offset with a valuation allowance. The excess foreign tax credits are subject to a ten-year carryforward and will begin to expire on January 31, 2026.

The following table summarizes uncertain tax position ("UTP") activity, excluding the related accrual for interest and penalties:

	2024			2023
Balance at beginning of year	$	1,433		$	1,673
Decreases in positions taken in a prior period		(3	)		(256	)
Increases in positions taken in a current period		224			143
Decreases due to lapse of statute of limitations		(131	)		(21	)
Decreases due to settlements		(114	)		(106	)
Balance at end of year	$	1,409		$	1,433

Included in the total UTP liability were estimated accrued interest and penalties of $0.4 million as of each of January 31, 2025 and 2024. These non-current income tax liabilities are recorded in other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets and recognized as an expense during the period. The Company's policy is to include interest and penalties in income tax expense. On January 31, 2025, the Company did not anticipate any significant adjustments to its unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months. Included in the balance on January 31, 2025 were amounts offset by deferred taxes (i.e. temporary differences) or amounts that could be offset by refunds in other taxing jurisdictions (i.e., corollary adjustments). Upon reversal, $1.2 million of the amount accrued on January 31, 2025 would impact the future ETR.

The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various states and foreign jurisdictions. Tax regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to the interpretation of the related tax laws and regulations and require significant judgment to apply. Tax years related to January 31, 2022, 2023, and 2024 are open for federal and state tax purposes. In addition, federal and state tax years related to January 31, 2005 through January 31, 2010, are subject to adjustment on audit, up to the amount of research tax credit generated in those years. Any NOL carryover can still be adjusted by the Internal Revenue Service in future year audits.

The Company's management periodically estimates the probable tax obligations of the Company using historical experience in tax jurisdictions and informed judgments. There are inherent uncertainties related to the interpretation of tax regulations in the jurisdictions in which the Company transacts business. The judgments and estimates made at a point in time may change based on the outcome of tax audits, as well as changes to or further interpretations of regulations. If such changes take place, there is a risk that the tax rate may increase or decrease in any period. Tax accruals for tax liabilities related to potential changes in judgments and estimates for federal, foreign and state tax issues are included in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

Note 8 - Retirement plans

401(k) plan

The domestic employees of the Company participate in the PPIH 401(k) Employee Savings Plan, which is applicable to all employees except employees covered by collective bargaining agreement benefits. The plan allows employee pretax payroll contributions from 1% to 16% of total compensation. The Company matches 100% of each participant's payroll deferral contributions up to 1% of their compensation, plus 50% of each participant's payroll deferral contributions on the next 5% of compensation.

Contributions to the 401(k) plan were $0.4 million in the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Multi-employer plans

The Company contributes to a multi-employer plan for certain collective bargaining U.S. employees. The risks of participating in this multi-employer plan are different from a single employer plan in the following aspects:

•

Assets contributed to the multi-employer plans by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers.

•

If a participating employer ceases contributing to the plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan may be inherited by the remaining participating employers.

•

If the Company chooses to stop participating in the multi-employer plan, the Company may be required to pay those plans an amount based on the underfunded status of the plan, referred to as a withdrawal liability.

The Company has assessed and determined that the multi-employer plans to which it contributes are not significant to the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company does not expect to incur a withdrawal liability or expect to significantly increase its contribution over the remainder of the contract period. The Company made contributions to the bargaining unit supported multi-employer pension plans (in thousands):

Note 9 - Stock-based compensation

The Company has prior incentive plans under which previously granted awards remain outstanding, but under which no new awards may be granted, including the Company's 2021 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan, which expired in May 2024. At January 31, 2025, the Company had reserved a total of 122,814 shares for grants and issuances under these incentive plans, including issuances pursuant to unvested or unexercised prior awards.

The Company's 2024 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan dated May 28, 2024 was approved by the Company's stockholders in July 2024 ("2024 Plan"). The 2024 Plan will expire in July 2027. The 2024 Plan authorizes awards to officers, employees, consultants and independent directors. The 2024 Plan provides for the grant of deferred shares, non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted shares, restricted stock units, and performance-based restricted stock units intended to qualify under section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code.

Grants were made in connection with the 2024 Plan and the prior incentive plans to employees, officers, and independent directors, as further described below:

Stock compensation expense

The Company has granted stock-based compensation awards to eligible employees, officers or independent directors. The Company recognized the following stock-based compensation expense for the periods presented:

	2024		2023
Restricted stock based compensation expense	$	860	$	913
Total stock-based compensation expense	$	860	$	913

Stock options

The Company did not grant any stock options during the years ended January 31, 2025 or 2024. The following table summarizes the Company's stock option activity:

	Options			Weighted average exercise price		Weighted average remaining contractual term		Weighted average grant date fair value
Outstanding on January 31, 2023		40		$	10.85		1.12	$	19

Exercised		(1	)		6.85

Options exercisable on January 31, 2025		1		$	6.85		0.8	$	4

There was no vesting, expiration or forfeiture of previously unvested stock options during the year ended January 31, 2025. In addition, there were no remaining unvested stock options outstanding, and therefore no unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options during the year ended January 31, 2025.

Deferred stock

As part of their compensation, in previous years the Company granted deferred stock units to each non-employee director, equal to the result of dividing the award amount by the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. The stock vests on the date of grant; however, it is distributed to the directors only upon their separation from service. During the year ended January 31, 2025, no deferred stock units were distributed. There were approximately 62,926 deferred stock units outstanding included in the restricted stock activity shown below as of January 31, 2025 and 2024.

Restricted stock

The Company has granted restricted stock to executive officers, independent directors, and employees. The restricted stock vests ratably over one to four years. The Company calculates restricted stock compensation expense based on the grant date fair value and recognizes expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The following table summarizes the Company's restricted stock activity:

	Restricted shares			Weighted average price per share		Weighted average grant date fair value
Outstanding on January 31, 2023		266		$	8.55	$	2,286
Granted		92			10.26
Issued / vested		(84	)
Forfeited		(52	)		9.59
Outstanding on January 31, 2024		222		$	9.33	$	2,078
Granted		111			8.93
Issued / vested		(73	)
Forfeited		(29	)		9.59
Outstanding on January 31, 2025		230		$	9.05	$	2,080

The fair value of vested restricted stock was $0.9 million and $1.1 million in the year ended January 31, 2025 and 2024 respectively. Additionally, there was $1.0 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock granted under the plans as of January 31, 2025 and 2024. These costs are expected to be recognized over the weighted-average period of 1.7 years and 1.8 years, respectively. Further, the Company had approximately 0.2 million of non-vested restricted stock granted under the plan as of January 31, 2025. The remaining amount of non-vested restricted stock is expected to vest over the weighted-average period of 1.7 years.

Note 11 - Treasury stock

The repurchase program approved on October 4, 2021, authorized the Company to use up to $3.0 million for the purchase of its outstanding shares of common stock. Stock repurchases were permitted to be executed through open market or privately negotiated transactions, depending upon current market conditions and other factors. On December 7, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized the use of $1.0 million remaining under the share repurchase program previously approved on October 4, 2021 that expired on October 3, 2022. During the 12 months ended January 31, 2024, the Company used the remaining $1.0 million of the $3.0 million authorized to repurchase its outstanding shares of common stock. Accordingly, there was no repurchase activity with respect to the Company's shares of common stock during the twelve months ended January 31, 2025.

The following table sets forth information with respect to repurchases by the Company of its shares of common stock during 2023:

Note 12 - Joint venture and non-controlling interest

On June 1, 2023, the Company closed on its formation of the joint venture (the "JV Agreement" or "JV") with Gulf Insulation Group ("GIG") a leading provider of pre-insulated piping systems and pipe fabrication, in which the Company acquired a 60% financial controlling interest and contributed assets consisting of a building and equipment. The JV is a limited liability company named Perma Pipe Gulf Arabia Industry and is a closed joint stock company established under laws of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The JV's capital is comprised of ordinary shares with 60% owned by the Company and the remaining 40% owned by GIG. The Company expects this collaborative business arrangement to result in expanding its market presence in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Bahrain. The primary business activities of the JV include the manufacture and sale of the pre-insulated piping systems and pipe coating services. The other party to this business arrangement acquired a 40% non-controlling interest in the JV by contributing assets (i.e. acquired by the JV) of approximately $6.8 million in fair value, mainly consisting of an idle building and equipment. The fair value of the net assets contributed was determined through the use of a third-party appraiser using the indirect cost method.

Pursuant to the applicable guidance in ASC 805, Business Combinations and Noncontrolling Interests, the Company determined that the transaction did not meet the necessary conditions to be considered a business as the set of assets acquired did not contain an organized workforce and therefore was recorded as an asset acquisition. The assets transferred by the Company to the JV were recorded at historical cost, and no gain was recognized as a result of this exchange since the Company has a controlling interest in the JV. The Company’s measurement of the acquired assets is comprised of the fair value of the contributed net assets given up by the Company and the fair value of the non-controlling interest, excluding the contributed assets. The non-controlling interest attributable to the other party was recorded as of the investment date and was measured as part of the carrying amount of the ownership interest in the net assets given up by the Company plus the fair value of the non-controlling interest, excluding the contributed assets. No gain or loss was recognized as a result of this exchange. In connection with the joint venture, the Company also assumed a promissory note issued as part of the formation of the JV in the principal amount of $2.8 million payable to GIG. The principal amount is presented within the Long-term debt, less current maturities caption in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Company also has a promissory note due from the JV that was issued as part of the formation of the JV in the amount of approximately $4.2 million, which is eliminated in consolidation.

The Company has a 60% controlling financial interest in the joint venture which is not considered a wholly owned subsidiary. Accordingly, there remains a minority portion of the equity interest that is owned by a third party, GIG. Pursuant to the applicable guidance contained in ASC 810, Consolidations, the balance sheets and operating activities of this investment are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements. As of January 31, 2025, the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities of the JV that are consolidated by the Company totaled $39.1 million and $22.1 million, respectively.

The Company adjusts net income in the consolidated statements of operations to exclude the proportionate share of results that is attributable to the non-controlling interest. Additionally, the Company presents the proportionate share that is attributable to redeemable non-controlling interest as temporary equity within the consolidated balance sheets. This mezzanine presentation is the result of the non-controlling interest being subject to a put option that is not solely within the Company's control and in connection with the equity shares of the business arrangement that is redeemable any time after five years following the date of incorporation. The redemption amount per the JV Agreement is at fair value of the non-controlling interest which is the fair value of ordinary shares of the JV owned by GIG. Further, neither the call option nor put option contained in the JV Agreement met the definition of a derivative as a result of not containing a net settlement provision and the shares not being readily convertible to cash, thereby being considered embedded with respect to non-controlling interest and not a freestanding instrument.

As a result of the non-controlling interest being subject to redemption rights that are not entirely within the Company's control, it was concluded that the necessary conditions were met to be accounted for in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. Pursuant to this accounting standard, the Company determined that the only criteria for the security to become redeemable is the passage of time and, therefore, is considered probable of redemption. The Company made a policy election to measure changes in the non-controlling interest immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of non-controlling interest equal to its redemption amount as the non-controlling interest has no stated fixed price or fixed date. As such, at each subsequent balance sheet date following the formation of this business arrangement, the Company must determine whether further adjustment is required to increase the carrying value of the redeemable non-controlling interest. If the Company determines that the fair value of the redeemable non-controlling interest exceeds its carrying value, an adjustment is made to reflect this change. However, if the value is determined to be less than its carrying value, such adjustment is limited to its original carrying value at the formation of the business arrangement. Additionally, adjustments made to reflect the change in the value of the redeemable non-controlling interest are offset against permanent equity within the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

Net income attributable to GIG was $4.1 million and $2.7 million for the twelve months ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The proportionate share of net income was accounted for as a reduction in deriving net income attributable to common stock in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.

The Company is the ultimate parent of the JV through its 60% financial control and as part of the JV Agreement has majority control of the operational activities of the JV and no joint control exists. The JV Agreement has no veto or kickout rights and board voting is proportional to the ownership interest. Certain activities do include a two-third majority affirmative vote of shareholders of the JV and include acquiring another company, establishing new subsidiaries, entering another partnership or joint venture, any merger or material change to the business of the JV. These are considered protective rights. The 60% equity ownership of the JV by the Company allows it to receive its proportionate share of losses and residual returns.

The non-controlling interest is measured at fair value and was $11.0 million and $6.3 million recorded within temporary equity at January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The change in non-controlling interest consists of approximately $4.1 million in current year net income attributable to non-controlling interest, and approximately $0.6 million as an adjustment in the carrying value of the redeemable non-controlling interest pertaining to the business arrangement. In addition, there were no dividends or any other form of distributions from non-controlling interest for the year ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Note 13 - Segment reporting

The Company operates under one segment: Piping Systems. The results are presented on an consolidated basis to the Chief Executive Officer who serves as the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"). The accounting policies of the Company's segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. For further information, see Note 2 - Significant accounting policies, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The CODM regularly reviews consolidated revenues, significant expenses, and consolidated net income attributable to common stock to make operating decisions and assess performance. The CODM uses this information in making company-wide decisions when determining how to allocate resources.

Significant expenses represent amounts that are regularly provided to the CODM and included in consolidated net income attributable to common stock. Additionally, the CODM regularly reviews asset information by our reporting segment in a manner that is consistent with the presentation on the Company's accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

EX-10.8 2 ex_806188.htm EXHIBIT 10.8 - FORM OF RESTRICTED STOCK AND PERFORMANCE AWARD AGREEMENT UNDER THE 2024 OMNIBUS STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN HTML Editor

Exhibit 10.8

2024 PPIH Long-Term Incentive Program

Restricted Stock Unit and Performance Award Grant

Restricted Stock Unit and Performance Award Agreement
under the
2024 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan

Grantee:

No. of Restricted Stock Units:

This Agreement (the “Agreement”) evidences the award of (i) XXXX restricted stock units of Common Stock (each, a “RSU” and, collectively, the “RSUs”) subject to a vesting schedule, and (ii) a performance award (the “Performance Award”) relating to the performance period of the Company’s fiscal years 2024-2026 (the “Performance Period”) with a target dollar amount of XXXXX (the “Target Amount”), that Perma-Pipe International Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has granted to you, XXXXX, effective as of XXXXX (the “Grant Date”), pursuant to the 2024 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and conditioned upon your agreement to the terms described below. All of the provisions of the Plan are expressly incorporated into this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

Terminology. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, capitalized words used herein are defined in the Glossary at the end of this Agreement, or, if no definition is provided in this Agreement or the Glossary, such capitalized words shall have the same definitions as in the Plan.

Vesting of Restricted Stock Units.

All of the RSUs are nonvested and forfeitable as of the Grant Date.

So long as your Service is continuous from the Grant Date through the applicable date upon which vesting is scheduled to occur,

■

XXXXX of the RSUs will vest and become nonforfeitable on XXXXX, 2025 (the “First Vesting Date”),

■

XXXXX of the RSUs will vest and become nonforfeitable on XXXXX, 2026 (the “Second Vesting Date”),

■

XXXXX of the RSUs will vest and become nonforfeitable on XXXXX, 2027 (the “Third Vesting Date” and, together with the First Vesting Date and the Second Vesting Date, the “Vesting Dates”).

Notwithstanding Section 2(b), one hundred percent of the RSUs will become vested and nonforfeitable as of immediately before and contingent upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, so long as your Service is continuous from the Grant Date, through the date of the Change in Control. In addition, if you are in Retirement (as defined below) then, upon a Change in Control, any RSUs that had remained eligible for vesting following your Retirement, but that have not yet become vested, shall be vested and nonforfeitable as of immediately before and contingent upon the occurrence of such Change in Control. “Retirement” shall mean the effective date of your resignation or other termination of employment after your attainment of age 55 and at least 5 years of service (or such shorter period of service as may be determined by the Administrator); provided that, for a resignation to be treated as a Retirement, you must provide at least 6 months’ advance written notice of such Retirement to the Company, and, for the avoidance of doubt, your Retirement will be effective upon your actual retirement date rather than upon the date of such notice. You will continue working diligently to satisfy our business obligations as well as assist the Company during a transition. The treatment of the RSUs upon Retirement is intended to recognize your contributions to the Company prior to your Retirement and it is not intended to apply if you will continue working in the Company’s industry following your Retirement. Therefore, as a condition of receiving the award set forth in this Agreement under the conditions of Retirement, you will be required to enter into and comply with an extension of your current Confidentiality Agreement and Non-Solicitation/Non-Competition Agreement term for three years following the effective date of your retirement.

Terms of Performance Award. The Performance Award entitles you, subject to Section 4 and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, to receive (a) a cash payment equal to one-third of eighty percent of the Target Amount (the “Threshold Amount”) on each Vesting Date (each, an “Annual Payment”) and (b) an additional cash amount, payable on the Third Vesting Date equal to (i) the excess, if any, of the percentage of the Target Amount indicated below corresponding to the actual achievement of the performance goals set forth below (the “Performance Goals”) during the Performance Period over (ii) the sum of the Annual Payments. The additional amount payable shall be interpolated for performance between the specified levels and the sum of the Annual Payments shall not be less than eighty percent of the Target Amount. The Performance Goals and corresponding percentages of the Target Amount are the following:

Fiscal Years	Net Income Threshold $ (Payout = 80% of Target Amount)	Net Income Target (Payout = 100% of Target Amount)	Net Income Maximum (Payout = 150% of Target Amount)
2024-2026	XXXXX	XXXXX	XXXX

The Performance Goals and the Company’s achievement of the Performance Goals shall be calculated by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Performance Award will be deemed earned and shall be paid as of immediately before and contingent upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, at the level indicated in the most recent forecast prepared by the Company, so long as your Service is continuous from the Grant Date through the date of the Change in Control. In addition, if you are in Retirement, then, upon a Change in Control, any portion of the Performance Award that had remained eligible to be paid following your Retirement, but that has not yet been paid, shall be paid as of immediately before and contingent upon the occurrence of such Change in Control in an amount based on the performance level indicated in the most recent forecast prepared by the Company.

Effect of Termination of Employment or Service.

If your Service ceases by reason of your permanent disability (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), then the RSUs that would have vested on the schedule set forth in Section 2(b), and the portion of the Performance Award that would have been paid on the schedule set forth in Section 3, if your Service had continued through the one-year anniversary of your date of disability shall, in the case of the RSUs, become nonforfeitable and shall be released to you on the date such RSUs would have vested as set forth in Section 2(b), and in the case of the Performance Award, be paid to you on the date such amount would have been paid as set forth in Section 3, if your Service had been continuous through the one year anniversary of your date of disability, and any RSUs or portion of your Performance Award that do not vest in accordance with this subsection shall be forfeited; provided, however, if the Company (or an Affiliate) reasonably determines following your termination due to disability that you could have been terminated for Cause had all the facts been known to the Company (or an Affiliate) at the time of your disability, then you shall forfeit all rights with respect to any unvested RSUs and any unpaid Performance Award.

If your Service ceases by reason of your Retirement, by reason of your termination without Cause when you had met the age and service requirements for Retirement or by reason of your death, then:

If your RSUs and Performance Award were granted prior to the 12-month period ending on the effective date of your Retirement or death, (A) one hundred percent of the RSUs will continue to vest and become nonforfeitable as set forth in Section 2(b), and (B) your Performance Award will be paid as set forth in Section 3, as though your Service was continuous, or

ii.

If your RSUs and Performance Award were granted in the 12-month period ending on the effective date of your Retirement or death, a pro rata amount of the first tranche of your RSUs and your Performance Award (based on the number of days between the grant date and your Retirement divided by 365) respectively will continue to vest and become nonforfeitable as follows: (A) In the case of your RSUs as set forth in Section 2(b), and (B) In the case of your Performance Award as set forth in Section 3.

Any portion of the Award that does not remain eligible for continued vesting or to be deemed earned upon the cessation of your Service shall be immediately forfeited. If you die following your separation under this Section 4(b), then your estate will receive any RSUs and Performance Awards that would have continued to vest in accordance with the foregoing.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if:

You work in the Company’s industry or with a competitor of the Company (in each case as determined by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion) during the three years following the effective date of your Retirement or

(ii) The Company (or an Affiliate) reasonably determines following your Retirement that you could have been terminated for Cause had all the facts been known to the Company (or an Affiliate) at the time of your Retirement,

then you shall forfeit any unearned RSUs and unpaid Performance Award amounts and be required to repay in cash the gross amount of any RSUs that vested or Performance Award amounts that were paid to you under this Agreement in connection with or following the effective date of your Retirement.

In the case of RSUs, the amount required to be repaid shall be the Fair Market Value of such RSUs at the time such RSUs became vested and nonforfeitable, provided that you may, rather than paying cash, repay a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of RSUs that became vested and nonforfeitable.

If your Service ceases for any reason except as otherwise specified above, all RSUs that are not then vested, and any portion of your Performance Award that has not been earned, will be immediately forfeited by you. Except as otherwise specified above, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion, none of the RSUs, and no portion of the Performance Award, will vest after your Service ceases.

Restrictions on Transfer.

Prior to vesting, your RSUs may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or disposed of in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise), except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process, Any attempt to transfer your RSUs that is in violation of this Section 5(a) shall be wholly ineffective and, if any such attempt is made, the Company may cause you to immediately forfeit any unvested RSUs without any payment or consideration by the Company. The Company is authorized to take appropriate measures to prevent any such transfer, including, but not limited to, having its Transfer Agent hold all unvested shares in a designated nominee account until vesting and maintaining stop transfer instructions in regard to such RSUs, or placing appropriate legends on any certificates that are issued with respect to the RSUs.

You hereby represent and warrant to the Company as follows:

You will hold any Shares received under this Agreement for your own account for investment only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” of the Shares within the meaning of the Securities Act.

ii.

You understand that the Company may, in its discretion, continue to impose restrictions on the sale, pledge or other transfer of your Shares after they vest (including the placement of appropriate legends on stock certificates and the issue of stop transfer instructions to the Company’s Transfer Agents) if, in the judgment of the Company, such restrictions are necessary or desirable to comply with the Securities Act, the securities laws of any State or any other law.

iii.

You are aware that your investment in the Company is a speculative investment that has limited liquidity and is subject to the risk of complete loss.

Any attempt to dispose of the Shares received under this Agreement in contravention of the restrictions set forth in this Section 5 shall be null and void and without effect. The Company shall not be required to (i) transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or transferred in contravention of this Agreement or (ii) treat as the owner of the Shares, or otherwise accord voting, dividend, or liquidation rights to any transferee to whom the Shares have been transferred in contravention of this Agreement.

Stockholder Rights. You are considered the record owner of the RSUs immediately upon the Grant Date; however, you shall not be entitled to vote such Shares and you shall authorize and, by this Agreement, provide an irrevocable proxy coupled with an interest to the Company to vote such shares in its discretion until they are vested. Any cash dividends will accrue and be paid to you at the same time, and to the same extent, that the RSUs vest, and any dividends paid in Shares or other securities shall be subject to the same vesting schedule, risk of forfeiture, and restrictions on transferability as the RSUs with respect to which they were paid. For clarity, if you forfeit any RSUs, then you will also forfeit any dividends or other distributions paid with respect to such RSUs.

Tax Withholding.

You hereby agree to make adequate provision for foreign, federal, state and local taxes required by law to be withheld, if any, which arise in connection with the grant, vesting or other event relating to the RSUs or in connection with the grant, vesting, earning or payment of the Performance Award. To enable the satisfaction of your tax withholding obligations with respect to the RSUs through the delivery of proceeds from the sale of Shares that are issued under this Agreement on the market, you should execute Exhibit A to this Agreement and return it to the Company by the deadline set forth therein; provided that such sale of Shares shall occur only if the Company or its Affiliates do not satisfy applicable tax withholding obligations by withholding the issuance or delivery of Shares hereunder. If you have not timely executed Exhibit A to this Agreement, then you shall, immediately upon notification of the amount of withholding taxes due, if any, in connection with the RSUs, pay to the Company in cash or by check the amount necessary to satisfy any withholding obligations. The Company (and its Affiliates) shall also have the right to deduct from any compensation or any other payment of any kind due you (including withholding the issuance or delivery of Shares hereunder) the amount of any federal, state, local or foreign taxes required by law to be withheld in connection with this Agreement; provided, however, that the value of the Shares withheld or redeemed for taxes may not exceed the maximum statutory rate associated with the transaction with respect to which Shares are being withheld or redeemed to the extent necessary for the Company to avoid an accounting charge.

You hereby acknowledge that you have been advised by the Company to seek independent tax advice from your own advisors regarding the tax consequences of this Award. You may not rely on the Company, its Affiliates, or any of their officers, directors or employees for tax or legal advice regarding this Award. You acknowledge that you have sought tax and legal advice from your own advisors regarding this Award or have voluntarily and knowingly foregone such consultation.

Adjustments for Corporate Transactions and Other Events.

Stock Dividend, Stock Split and Reverse Stock Split. Upon a stock dividend of, or stock split or reverse stock split affecting, the Common Stock, the number of outstanding RSUs shall, without further action of the Administrator, be adjusted to reflect such event. The Administrator shall make adjustments, in its discretion, to address the treatment of fractional RSUs with respect to the Award as a result of the stock dividend, stock split or reverse stock split; provided that such adjustments do not result in the issuance of fractional Shares. Adjustments under this Section 8 will be made by the Administrator, whose determination as to what adjustments, if any, will be made and the extent thereof will be final, binding and conclusive.

Non-Change in Control Transactions. Upon any change affecting the Common Stock, the Company or its capitalization, by reason of a spin-off, split-up, dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or share exchange, other than any such change that is part of a transaction resulting in a Change in Control, the Administrator shall make any adjustments with respect to the Award as the Administrator determines to be appropriate and equitable. The Administrator’s determination as to what adjustments, if any, will be made and the extent thereof will be final, binding and conclusive.

Unusual or Nonrecurring Events. The Administrator shall make, in its discretion, adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, the Award in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company, or the financial statements of the Company or any Affiliate, or of changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles, whenever the Administrator determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan. The Administrator may make, in its discretion, adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, the Performance Award in recognition of unusual, unanticipated or nonrecurring events affecting the Company, or the financial statements of the Company or any Affiliate, or of changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles, whenever the Administrator determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan.

Binding Nature of Agreement. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall apply with equal force to any additional and/or substitute securities received by you in exchange for, or by virtue of your ownership of, the RSUs, to the same extent as the RSUs with respect to which such additional and/or substitute securities are distributed, whether as a result of any spin-off, stock split-up, stock dividend, stock distribution, other reclassification of the Common Stock of the Company, or similar event, except as otherwise determined by the Administrator. If the RSUs are converted into or exchanged for, or stockholders of the Company receive by reason of any distribution in total or partial liquidation or pursuant to any merger of the Company or acquisition of its assets, securities of another entity, or other property (including cash), then the rights of the Company under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Company’s successor, and this Agreement shall apply to the securities or other property (including cash) received upon such conversion, exchange or distribution in the same manner and to the same extent as the RSUs.

Non-Guarantee of Employment or Service Relationship. Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement shall alter your at-will or other employment status or other service relationship with the Company (or an Affiliate), nor be construed as a contract of employment or service relationship between the Company (or an Affiliate) and you, or as a contractual right of you to continue in the employ of, or in a service relationship with, the Company (or an Affiliate) for any period of time, or as a limitation of the right of the Company (or an Affiliate) to discharge you at any time with or without cause or notice and whether or not such discharge results in the forfeiture of any RSUs or all or any portion of the Performance Award or any other adverse effect on your interests under the Plan.

10.

The Company’s Rights. The existence of this Award or the RSUs shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or other stocks with preference ahead of or convertible into, or otherwise affecting the Common Stock or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of the Company’s assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.

11.

Notices. All notices and other communications made or given pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be sufficiently made or given if hand delivered or mailed by certified mail, addressed to you at the address contained in the records of the Company, or addressed to the Administrator, care of the Company for the attention of its Corporate Secretary at its principal executive office or, if the receiving party consents in advance, transmitted and received via telecopy or via such other electronic transmission mechanism as may be available to the parties.

12.

Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the RSUs and the Performance Award granted hereunder. Any oral or written agreements, representations, warranties, written inducements, or other communications made prior to the execution of this Agreement with respect to the RSUs or the Performance Award granted hereunder shall be void and ineffective for all purposes. In the event a court of competent jurisdiction deems any provision hereof to be unreasonable, void, or unenforceable, such provision(s) shall be deemed severed from the remainder of the Agreement, which shall continue in all other respects to be valid and enforceable. It is the intent of the parties that any such provision(s) of this Agreement declared void, unreasonable, or unenforceable shall be deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction revised to the minimum amount necessary in order to be valid and enforceable.

13.

Amendment. This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Administrator in its discretion; provided, however, that this Agreement may not be modified in a manner that would have a material adverse effect on your rights with respect to the RSUs or the Performance Award as determined in the discretion of the Administrator, except as otherwise provided in (a) Section 8 of this Agreement, (b) the Plan or (c) a written document signed by each of the parties hereto.

14.

Conformity with Plan. This Agreement is intended to conform in all respects with, and is subject to all applicable provisions of, the Plan. Inconsistencies between this Agreement and the Plan shall be resolved in accordance with the terms of the Plan. In the event of any ambiguity in this Agreement or any matters as to which this Agreement is silent, the Plan shall govern. A copy of the Plan is provided to you with this Agreement.

15.

Governing Law. The validity, construction and effect of this Agreement, and of any determinations or decisions made by the Administrator relating to this Agreement, and the rights of any and all persons having or claiming to have any interest under this Agreement, shall be determined exclusively in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its provisions concerning the applicability of laws of other jurisdictions. As a condition of this Agreement, you agree that you will not bring any action arising under, as a result of, pursuant to or relating to, this Agreement in any court other than a federal or state court in the districts which include Niles, Illinois, and you hereby agree and submit to the personal jurisdiction of any federal court located in the district which includes Niles, Illinois or any state court in the district which includes Niles, Illinois. You further agree that you will not deny or attempt to defeat such personal jurisdiction or object to venue by motion or other request for leave from any such court.

16.

Resolution of Disputes. Any dispute or disagreement which shall arise under, or as a result of, or pursuant to or relating to, this Agreement shall be determined by the Administrator in good faith in its absolute and uncontrolled discretion, and any such determination or any other determination by the Administrator under or pursuant to this Agreement and any interpretation by the Administrator of the terms of this Agreement, will be final, binding and conclusive on all persons affected thereby. You agree that before you may bring any legal action arising under, as a result of, pursuant to or relating to, this Agreement you will first exhaust your administrative remedies before the Administrator. You further agree that in the event that the Administrator does not resolve any dispute or disagreement arising under, as a result of, pursuant to or relating to, this Agreement to your satisfaction, no legal action may be commenced or maintained relating to this Agreement more than twenty-four (24) months after the Administrator’s decision.

17.

Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

18.

Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which is deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together constitute one and the same Agreement and shall become effective when all counterparts have been executed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other. Facsimile and other electronic transmissions (including in portable document format) of any originally executed document (including this Agreement) shall be deemed to be the same as a delivered, executed original.

Exhibit A

Standing Order Election

By executing this Irrevocable Standing Order Election (this “Standing Order”), I wish to notify the Company of my election to satisfy any withholding taxes due in connection with each and every vesting date for the RSUs by applying proceeds from a market sale of Company securities issuable as a result of such vesting date, except to the extent the Company satisfies such withholding taxes by withholding Company securities otherwise issuable as a result of such vesting date. I understand that if I do not execute this Standing Order, then the Company will require that I pay my withholding obligations by cash or check, or the Company will deduct the amount of any withholding obligations from other payments due to me.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

● You may not enter into this Standing Order if you are in possession of material non-public information. If you are in possession of material non-public information, then you must wait to complete this Standing Order until such time as you no longer possess material non-public information.

● No sales may be made pursuant to this Standing Order for 30 calendar days following its execution. To ensure that you can satisfy your withholding obligations by selling Shares in the market, you should return this form to the Company as soon as possible, but in no event later than 30 days before the first vesting date of your RSUs listed in the Agreement.

By signing below, I understand that I am agreeing to the following provisions:

I am executing this Standing Order to authorize the Company and any broker the Company designates (the “Broker”) to take the actions described in this Paragraph 1. I authorize the Company to transfer any Shares issued to me in connection with my award of RSUs to the Broker to be held in an account for my benefit (the “Brokerage Account”), and I irrevocably authorize the Broker to sell, at the market price and on the date the RSUs vest for tax purposes (or, if all or a portion of the sale cannot be completed on such date because of insufficient demand or a market disruption, then on the next following business day on which the sale can be made) the number of Shares necessary to obtain proceeds sufficient to satisfy the amount of any withholding obligations associated with my RSUs indicated by the Company to the Broker. I understand and agree that the number of Shares that the Broker will sell will be based on the Company’s estimate (or Broker’s estimate if it provides such service) of the Shares required to satisfy the withholding obligations, using the closing price of a Share of the Company’s common stock on the trading day immediately prior to the vesting date (or such other date as any withholding obligations become due). I agree to execute and deliver such documents, instruments and certificates as may reasonably be required in connection with the sale of the Shares pursuant to this Standing Order.

I agree that the proceeds received from the sale of Shares pursuant to Paragraph 1 will be used to satisfy any withholding obligations associated with my RSUs and, accordingly, I hereby authorize the Broker to pay such proceeds to the Company for such purpose. I understand that, to the extent that the proceeds obtained by such sale exceed the amount necessary to satisfy the withholding obligations, such excess proceeds shall be deposited into the Brokerage Account and, if a shortfall occurs, the Broker may sell additional Shares held in my Brokerage Account, the Company may deduct any remaining withholding obligations from any compensation or other payment of any kind due to me, or the Company may require that I pay any remaining withholding obligations to by cash or check. I further understand that any Shares that are not sold to satisfy withholding obligations will remain deposited in the Brokerage Account.

I have reviewed with my own tax advisors the federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this grant and the actions contemplated by the Agreement and this Standing Order. I am relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. I understand that I (and not the Company) will be responsible for my own tax liability that may arise as a result of this Standing Order.

I represent to the Company that, as of the date hereof, (i) I am not aware of any material nonpublic information about the Company or its Common Stock, (ii) the Company is not in a black out period (as defined in the Company’s Insider Trading Policy), (iii) sales will not be commenced within 30 calendar days of adoption of this Standing Order, (iv) I am not subject to any legal, regulatory or contractual restriction or undertaking that would prevent the sales of Shares contemplated by this Standing Order, and (v) I am entering into this Standing Order in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade the prohibitions of Rule 10b5-1. The Company and I have structured this Agreement to comply with the affirmative defense to liability under Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, under Rule 10b5-1(c)(1) issued under such Act, and this Standing Order shall be interpreted to comply with such requirements.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Standing Order as of the last date indicated below.

Exhibit 10.9

2024 PPIH Non-Employee Director Compensation Program

Restricted Stock Unit Grant

Restricted Stock Unit Agreement
under the
2024 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan

Grantee:

No. of Restricted Stock Units: XXX

Dollar Amount of Grant: $XXXX

30 Day Average Price on Grant Date: XXXX

Grant Date: XXXXXX

This Agreement (the “Agreement”) evidences the award of the number of restricted stock units (each, an “RSU,” and collectively, the “RSUs”), each entitling the grantee to receive one share of Common Stock (a “Share”) subject to a vesting schedule, that Perma-Pipe International Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has granted to the grantee set forth above (“Grantee” or “you”), effective as of the grant date set forth above (the “Grant Date”), pursuant to the 2021 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and conditioned upon your agreement to the terms described below. All of the provisions of the Plan are expressly incorporated into this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

Vesting and Settlement of Restricted Stock Units.

All of the RSUs are nonvested and forfeitable as of the Grant Date.

All of the RSUs will vest and become nonforfeitable on the first anniversary of the Grant Date (the “Vesting Date”), so long as your Service is continuous from the Grant Date through the Vesting Date.

If your Service ceases for any reason prior to the Vesting Date, then, on the date on which your Service ceases, all of the unvested RSUs will become nonforfeitable and vest on the Vesting Date.

The number of RSUs indicated in Section 2(b) will be settled by payment of one Share per vested RSU on or within two and one-half months after the Vesting Date; provided that all of the then-vested RSUs will be settled by payment of one Share per vested RSU upon an earlier Change in Control.

Restrictions on Transfer.

Your RSUs may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or disposed of in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) (a “Transfer”), except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Any attempt to Transfer your RSUs that is in violation of this Section 3(a) shall be wholly ineffective and, if any such attempt is made, the Company may cause you to immediately forfeit any unvested RSUs without any payment or consideration by the Company. The Company is authorized to take appropriate measures to prevent any such Transfer, including, but not limited to, placing appropriate legends on any certificates that are issued with respect to the RSUs.

You hereby represent and warrant to the Company as follows:

ii.

You understand that the Company may, in its discretion, continue to impose restrictions on the Transfer of your Shares after they vest (including the placement of appropriate legends on stock certificates and the issue of stop transfer instructions to the Company’s Transfer Agents) if, in the judgment of the Company, such restrictions are necessary or desirable to comply with the Securities Act, the securities laws of any State or any other law.

iii.

You are aware that your investment in the Company is a speculative investment that has limited liquidity and is subject to the risk of complete loss.

Any attempt to Transfer the Shares received under this Agreement in contravention of the restrictions set forth in this Section 3 shall be null and void and without effect. The Company shall not be required to (i) Transfer on its books any Shares that have been Transferred in contravention of this Agreement or (ii) treat as the owner of the Shares, or otherwise accord voting, dividend, or liquidation rights to any transferee to whom the Shares have been Transferred in contravention of this Agreement.

Stockholder Rights. You are not considered the record owner of the Shares subject to the RSUs until such Shares are issued following vesting and you shall not be entitled to any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company including, without limitation, the right to vote such Shares and receive all dividends or other distributions paid with respect to such Shares, until such Shares are issued to you. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any cash dividends or other distributions are paid with respect to the Shares before Shares are issued in settlement of RSUs, then dividend equivalents or other distribution equivalents will be credited with respect to your RSUs and will be subject to the same terms and conditions, and shall be paid at the time as, the RSUs to which they relate. For clarity, if you forfeit any RSUs, then you will also forfeit any dividend equivalents or other distribution equivalents credited with respect to dividends on the Shares subject to such RSUs.

Taxes.

You hereby agree to make adequate provision for foreign, federal, state and local taxes required by law to be withheld, if any, which arise in connection with the grant, vesting or other event relating to the RSUs or the Shares. If taxes are required to be withheld, then the Company may require you to, immediately upon notification of the amount of withholding taxes due, if any, pay to the Company in cash or by check the amount necessary to satisfy any withholding obligations. The Company (and its Affiliates) shall also have the right to deduct from any compensation or any other payment of any kind due you (including withholding the issuance or delivery of Shares hereunder) the amount of any federal, state, local or foreign taxes required by law to be withheld as a result of the grant, vesting or other event with respect to the RSUs in whole or in part; provided, however, that the value of the Shares withheld or redeemed may not exceed the maximum statutory rate associated with the transaction to the extent necessary for the Company to avoid an accounting charge.

Adjustments for Corporate Transactions and Other Events.

Stock Dividend, Stock Split and Reverse Stock Split. Upon a stock dividend of, or stock split or reverse stock split affecting, the Common Stock, the number of RSUs shall, without further action of the Administrator, be adjusted to reflect such event. The Administrator shall make adjustments, in its discretion, to address the treatment of fractional RSUs with respect to the Award as a result of the stock dividend, stock split or reverse stock split; provided that such adjustments do not result in the issuance of fractional Shares. Adjustments under this Section 6 will be made by the Administrator, whose determination as to what adjustments, if any, will be made and the extent thereof will be final, binding and conclusive.

Binding Nature of Agreement. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall apply with equal force to any additional and/or substitute securities received by you in exchange for, or by virtue of your ownership of, the RSUs or the Shares, to the same extent as the RSUs or Shares with respect to which such additional and/or substitute securities are distributed, whether as a result of any spin-off, stock split-up, stock dividend, stock distribution, other reclassification of the Common Stock of the Company, or similar event, except as otherwise determined by the Administrator. If the RSUs or Shares are converted into or exchanged for, or stockholders of the Company receive by reason of any distribution in total or partial liquidation or pursuant to any merger of the Company or acquisition of its assets, securities of another entity, or other property (including cash), then the rights of the Company under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Company’s successor, and this Agreement shall apply to the securities or other property (including cash) received upon such conversion, exchange or distribution in the same manner and to the same extent as the RSUs or Shares.

Non-Guarantee of Service Relationship. Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement shall alter your service relationship with the Company (or an Affiliate), nor be construed as a contract of your service relationship between the Company (or an Affiliate) and you, or as a contractual right of you to continue in a service relationship with the Company (or an Affiliate) for any period of time, or as a limitation of the right of the Company (or an Affiliate) to discharge you at any time with or without cause or notice and whether or not such discharge results in the forfeiture of any RSUs or any other adverse effect on your interests under the Plan.

The Company’s Rights. The existence of the RSUs shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or other stocks with preference ahead of or convertible into, or otherwise affecting the Common Stock or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of the Company’s assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.

10.

Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Plan contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the RSUs granted hereunder. Any oral or written agreements, representations, warranties, written inducements, or other communications made prior to the execution of this Agreement with respect to the RSUs granted hereunder shall be void and ineffective for all purposes. In the event a court of competent jurisdiction deems any provision hereof to be unreasonable, void, or unenforceable, such provision(s) shall be deemed severed from the remainder of the Agreement, which shall continue in all other respects to be valid and enforceable. It is the intent of the parties that any such provision(s) of this Agreement declared void, unreasonable, or unenforceable shall be deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction revised to the minimum amount necessary in order to be valid and enforceable.

11.

Amendment. This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Administrator in its discretion; provided, however, that this Agreement may not be modified in a manner that would have a material adverse effect on your rights with respect to the RSUs as determined in the discretion of the Administrator, except as otherwise provided in (a) Section 6 of this Agreement, (b) the Plan or (c) a written document signed by each of the parties hereto.

No Future Entitlement.

EX-19.1 4 ex_804164.htm EXHIBIT 19.1 - INSIDER TRADING POLICY HTML Editor

Exhibit 19.1

INSIDER TRADING POLICY

POLICY SUMMARY / PURPOSE

The purpose of this Policy is to provide procedures and guidelines with respect to transactions in the securities of Perma-Pipe International Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), the protection of material, non-public information and the standard of conduct expected of the Company’s employees in this highly sensitive area. It is the personal obligation and responsibility of each employee to act in a manner consistent with this Policy.

SCOPE

As a public company, the Company is subject to various federal and state laws and regulations governing trading in its securities. It is the policy of the Company to comply fully, and assist its employees in complying fully, with these laws and regulations.

This Policy applies to ALL members of the Company’s Board of Directors, Named Executive Officers (“NEOs”), employees, and certain consultants specified by the Company, as well as members of such persons’ immediate families and households. All references in this Policy to “employees” of the Company should be read to include all such persons listed in the preceding sentence.

The Company depends upon the conduct and diligence of its employees, in both their professional and personal capacities, to ensure full compliance with this Policy

DEFINITIONS AND TERMS

Background

What is insider trading? “Insider trading” is a top enforcement priority of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the NASDAQ Global Market (“NASDAQ”) and the Department of Justice. Criminal prosecutions for insider trading are commonplace and may result in fines and/or imprisonment.

The prohibition against such trading generally is understood to prohibit the following:

trading on the basis of material, non-public information,

disclosing or “tipping” material, non-public information to others or recommending the purchase or sale of securities on the basis of such information, or

assisting someone who is engaged in any of the above activities.

Who is an insider? The term “insider” applies to anyone who, by virtue of a special relationship with the Company, possesses material, non-public information regarding the business of the Company.

An individual can be considered an insider for a limited time with respect to certain material, non-public information even though he or she is not a director or officer. For example, an assistant who knows that an acquisition is about to occur may be regarded as an insider with respect to that information until the news of such acquisition has been fully disclosed to the public.

An employee who departs from the Company is still considered an insider from the date of their departure to the opening of the next trading window dictated by the release of a 10-Q or 10-K (Ex: Term date July 31, insider status through September 15). This is further clarified on Page 5 - No Trading During Black-Out Periods.

What is material, non-public information? Information is generally deemed to be “material” if there is a substantial likelihood a “reasonable investor” would rely on it in deciding to purchase, sell or hold a security to which the information relates. As a practical matter, materiality often is determined after the fact, when it is known that someone has traded on the information and after the information itself has been made public and its effects upon the market are more certain. Examples of information that is generally regarded as material are:

●

Financial results;

●

Projections of future results or other guidance;

●

Major proposed or pending acquisitions, investments or divestitures;

●

Significant project or product developments;

●

Changes in key personnel;

●

Changes in dividends;

●

Stock splits;

●

Stock buy-backs;

●

New equity or debt offerings;

●

Positive or negative developments in outstanding significant litigation;

●

Events that may result in the creation of a significant reserve or write-off or other significant adjustments to the financial statements;

●

Actual or threatened significant litigation or inquiry by a governmental or regulatory authority; and

●

Any other facts which might cause the Company’s financial results to be substantially affected.

“Non-public” information is any information that has not been previously disclosed and is not otherwise available to investors generally. Filings with the SEC and press releases are generally regarded as public information. Information about undisclosed financial results or a possible merger, acquisition or other material development, whether concerning the Company or otherwise, and obtained in the normal course of employment or through a rumor, tip or just “loose talk”, is not public information. Information should be considered “non-public” until the beginning of the third (3rd) Trading Day (as defined below) after such information has been disseminated widely to the general public through press releases, news tickers, publication in a widely available newspaper, SEC filings or other widely disseminated means.

For purposes of this Policy, a “Trading Day” shall mean a day on which the NASDAQ is open for trading.

Potential Criminal and Civil Liability and/or Disciplinary Action. Individuals found liable for insider trading can face penalties, criminal fines and possible jail-time.

Violation of this Policy and its guidelines may subject an individual to Company-imposed discipline, including dismissal.

The procedures regarding securities trading outlined below are designed to deter and, where possible, to prevent such improper trading.

POLICY GUIDELINES

Guidelines Regarding Transactions in the Company's Securities

The following guidelines apply to all transactions, direct or indirect, in all of the Company’s securities, including, but not limited to, the Company’s common stock (including those shares of common stock that may be held in any retirement plan, pension plan, other such similar plans that the Company may adopt in the future).

●

PROHIBITION AND PROCEDURES FOR ALL EMPLOYEES

●

No Trading on Material, Non-Public Information: No employee who is aware of any material, non-public information concerning the Company or a third-party with whom the Company does business, shall engage in any transaction in the Company’s or such third-party’s securities, including any offer to purchase or sell, during any period commencing with the date that he or she obtains such material, non-public information and ending at the beginning of the third (3rd) Trading Day following the date of public disclosure of that information. After termination of employment, any employee who is in possession of material, nonpublic information is prohibited from trading in Company securities until that information has become public or is no longer material.

●

No Tipping: No employee shall disclose (“tip”) material, non-public information to any other person where such information may be used by such person to his or her benefit by trading in the securities of the company to which such information relates, nor shall an employee make any recommendations or express any opinions as to trading in the Company’s securities to any other person on the basis of material, non-public information.

●

No Short Sales: No employee shall engage in the short sale of the Company’s securities. A short sale is a sale of securities not owned by the seller or, if owned, not delivered against such sale within twenty (20) days thereafter (a “short against the box”). Short sales of the Company’s securities evidence an expectation on the part of the seller that the securities will decline in value, and, therefore, signal to the market that the seller has no confidence in the Company or its short-term prospects. In addition, short sales may reduce the seller’s incentive to improve the Company’s performance.

●

No Investments in Derivatives of the Company’s Securities: No employee shall invest in Company-based derivative securities. “Derivative Securities” are options, warrants, stock appreciation rights or similar rights whose value is derived from the value of an equity security, such as the Company’s common stock. This prohibition includes, but is not limited to, trading in Company-based put or call option contracts, trading in straddles and the like. However, holding and exercising stock options, restricted stock units or other derivative securities granted under the Company’s equity compensation plans is not prohibited by this Policy.

●

No Hedging or Pledging: Our NEOs and Board of Directors are prohibited from hedging or pledging any Company securities that they hold directly. In addition, our NEOs and Board of Directors are prohibited from engaging in short sales of our stock and may not hedge or pledge equity compensation.

●

No Margin Purchases: No employee shall purchase the Company’s securities on margin. This means such persons are prohibited from borrowing from a brokerage firm, bank or other entity in order to purchase the Company’s securities (other than in connection with “cashless” exercises of stock options under the Company’s equity compensation plans).

●

No Trading During Black-Out Periods: Employees as defined in the scope are subject to black-out periods during which they are prohibited from conducting any transactions involving the Company’s securities. Each black-out period begins at the close of the market on the fourteenth (14th) day prior to the close of any fiscal quarter and ends at the open of the market on the third (3rd) Trading Day following the release of the Company’s quarterly or annual financial results for that particular quarter (the “Black-Out Period”). The prohibition against trading during the Black-Out Period also prohibits the fulfillment of “limit orders”, and the brokers with whom any such “limit order” is placed must be informed of such prohibition at the time such “limit order” is placed.

●

Additional black-out periods may be implemented with regard to certain employees or groups from time to time who are in possession of non-public information regarding potentially significant matters.


Example of Black-Out Periods:			Black-Out		Trading Window
Fiscal Period	Fiscal End Date	SEC Filing date	From	To	From	To
Quarter 4/ Year End	Jan 31st	Apr 15th	Jan 15th	Jun 15th	N/A	N/A
Quarter 1	Apr 30th	Jun 12th	Jan 15th	Jun 15th	Jun 16th	July 14th
Quarter 2	Jul 31st	Sep 11th	Jul 15th	Sep 15th	Sep 16th	Oct 14th
Quarter 3	Oct 31st	Dec 11th	Oct 15th	Dec 15th	Dec 16th	Jan 14th

●

Note: The above table is just a guide. Employees should anticipate an email from Corporate finance to get the exact trading and black-out dates.

In light of these restrictions, if you expect a need or have a desire to sell Company securities at a specific time in the future, you may wish to consider entering into a prearranged Rule 10b5‑1 trading plan, as discussed below.

No Trading in the Company’s Securities on a Short-Term Basis: Any Company securities purchased on the open market by an employee must be held for a minimum of six (6) months. Note that the SEC’s short swing profit rules already penalize individuals who sell any Company securities within six (6) months of a purchase by requiring such person to disgorge all profits to the Company whether or not such person had knowledge of any material, non-public information.

Same day “cashless” exercises of stock options are not subject to this prohibition, provided that there were no previous purchase transactions on the open market within six (6) months of the exercise date.

Precautions to Prevent Misuse or Unauthorized Disclosure of Sensitive Information: When an employee is involved in a matter or transaction which is sensitive and, if disclosed, could reasonably be expected to have an effect on the market price of the securities of the Company or any other company involved in the transaction, that individual should consider taking extraordinary precautions to prevent misuse or unauthorized disclosure of such information. Such measures include the following:

Maintaining files securely and avoiding storing information on computer systems that can be accessed by other individuals;

Avoiding the discussion of confidential matters in areas where the conversation could possibly be overheard;

Not gossiping about Company affairs; and

Restricting the copying and distribution of sensitive documents within the Company.

Internet: Any written or verbal statement that would be prohibited under the law or under this Policy is equally prohibited if made on the Internet or by social media.

Inadvertent Disclosure of Material, Non-Public Information: If material, non-public information regarding the Company is inadvertently disclosed, no matter what the circumstances, by any employee, the person making or discovering that disclosure should immediately report the facts to the Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”).

Inquiries Regarding Material, Non-Public Information: When an inquiry is received regarding information that may be material, it should be referred, without comment, to the Company’s Investor Relations Department.

PRE-CLEARANCE OF TRADING (Applies only to BOD and NEOs)

If a member of the Board of Directors or an NEO is contemplating a transaction in the Company’s securities, the proposed transaction must be pre-cleared via email with either the CCO, Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), or Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) of the Company, even if the proposed transaction is to take place within a Company authorized Trading Window. If the transaction is cleared to proceed, the Company will assist a Section 16 Reporting Person in complying with Section 16 and, where applicable, Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT ANY PERSON WHO POSSESSES MATERIAL, NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT IT IS WITHIN THE BLACK-OUT PERIOD OR NOT, SHOULD NOT ENGAGE IN ANY TRANSACTION INVOLVING THE COMPANY’S SECURITIES, UNLESS UNDER A RULE 10b5-1 PLAN.

Any transaction under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan (discussed below) will not require pre-clearance at the time of the transaction.

EXCEPTIONS TO THE PROHIBITIONS ON TRADING FOR ALL EMPLOYEES

The only exceptions to this Policy’s prohibitions of trading in the Company’s securities as outlined above are the following:

Transactions under Company Plans: Exercises of stock options granted under the Company’s equity compensation plans for cash; however, this exception does not include the subsequent sale of the shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of a stock option. In addition, the exercise of a tax withholding right under any equity awards under the Company’s equity compensation plans pursuant to which an employee has the Company withhold securities to satisfy tax withholding requirements is not covered by the prohibitions of this Policy.

Bona Fide Gifts: Bona fide gifts of securities are not deemed to be transactions for the purposes of this Policy. Whether a gift is truly bona fide will depend on the circumstances surrounding a specific gift. The more unrelated the donee is to the donor, the more likely the gift would be considered “bona fide” and not a “transaction.” For example, gifts to charities, churches or non-profit organizations would not be deemed to be “transactions.” However, gifts to dependent children followed by a sale of the “gifted securities” in close proximity to the time of the gift may imply some economic benefit to the donor and, therefore, may be deemed to be a “transaction” and not a “bona fide gift.”

While these transactions are exceptions to this Policy’s prohibitions on trading in the Company’s securities, an employee contemplating such a transaction should still pre-clear the proposed transaction with either the CCO, CEO, or CFO of the Company.

RULE 10b5-1 TRADING PLANS

Rule 10b5-1 provides a defense from insider trading liability if trades occur pursuant to a pre-arranged trading plan that meets specified conditions. It is possible to pre-arrange trades in Company securities by entering into a written trading plan. Trading plans can be established for a single trade or a series of trades. A plan must either specify the number of securities to be bought or sold, along with the price and the date, or provide a written formula for determining this information. Alternatively, a trading plan can delegate investment discretion to a third party, such as a broker, who then makes trading decisions without further input from the person implementing the plan. Because the SEC rules on trading plans are complex, you should consult with your broker and be sure you fully understand the limitations and conditions of the rules before you establish a trading plan.

All Rule 10b5-1 trading plans and any amendments thereto and terminations thereof must be reviewed and approved in advance by the Company’s CCO, CFO, and VP of Human Resources.

ENFORCEMENT AND COMPLIANCE

All employees of the Company have ethical and legal responsibilities to maintain the confidentiality of material, non-public information. Any person who believes that a violation of this policy has taken place shall report it promptly to the CCO, VP of Human Resources and the Corporate Controller.

Individuals found liable for insider trading can face penalties, criminal fines, and possible jail-time.

Violation of this Policy and its guidelines may subject an individual to Company-imposed discipline, including dismissal.

Any questions concerning this Policy should be addressed to the CCO, VP of Human Resources, or the Corporate Controller of the Company.

COMMUNICATION AND TRAINING

This policy will be distributed to all BOD members, Executives and members of management who are classified as “insiders” with Perma-Pipe, Inc. before each trading window is open

REVIEW AND REVISIONS

This policy should be reviewed every 2 years by the Nomination/Governance Committee.

CONTACT INFORMATION

Any questions concerning this Policy should be addressed with the CCO, VP of Human Resources or the Corporate Controller of the Company.
