On April 1, 2026, CVD Equipment Corporation, a New York corporation (the “Company”), consummated the transactions contemplated by an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) entered into with a subsidiary of the Atlas Copco Group based in Nacka, Sweden (the “Buyer”).
Under the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company sold to the Buyer substantially all of the assets related to the Company’s Stainless Design Concepts (“SDC”) business division and excluded certain assets, and the Buyer assumed certain specified liabilities, in each case as set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction”).
The Company retained ownership of its Saugerties, New York facility, which will be leased to the Buyer for an initial term of two years from the closing of the Transaction.
The aggregate consideration paid to the Company in connection with the Transaction approximated $16.9 million (the “Purchase Price”) and is subject to a Purchase Price Adjustment (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement).
At the closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”), the Buyer placed $900,000 of the Purchase Price in escrow to cover post-Closing adjustments and indemnification obligations under the Asset Purchase Agreement. The escrow will be released as described in the Asset Purchase Agreement.
The Asset Purchase Agreement contains customary indemnification provisions pursuant to which the parties agree to indemnify each other for certain matters, including, among other things, breaches of certain representations, warranties and covenants in connection with the Transaction.
In connection with the Transaction, the Company retained ownership of its Saugerties, New York facility and entered into a lease agreement (the “Facility Lease”) with the Buyer, pursuant to which the Buyer will lease such facility for an initial term of two years following the closing. The Facility Lease provides for an initial annual rent of $182,750, subject to customary adjustments. The annual rent under this agreement has been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025, presents the Company’s consolidated financial position giving pro forma effect to the Transaction as if it had occurred on December 31, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 present the Company’s consolidated results of operations giving pro forma effect to the Transaction as if it had occurred on January 1, 2024.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein have been derived from the Company’s historical consolidated financial statements. While the historical consolidated financial statements reflect the past financial results of the Company, the pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are included for informational purposes only and are intended to illustrate how the Transaction might have affected the historical consolidated financial statements had it been completed at an earlier time as indicated herein. The Transaction constituted a significant disposition for purposes of Item 2.01 of Form 8-K and these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, Pro Forma Financial Information, and include adjustments to the extent that they are directly attributable to the Transaction.
These pro forma adjustments are based on currently available information, estimates and assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable in order to reflect, on a pro forma basis, the impact of the Transaction on the Company’s historical information, and are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s future financial position and future results of operations and do not reflect all actions that may be taken by the Company following the closing of the Transaction. The actual financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors.
These unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in connection with the Company’s historical audited consolidated financial statements, the accompanying notes and “Managements Discussion of Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on March 30, 2026.
