Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On April 1, 2026, CVD Equipment Corporation (the “Company”), completed the previously announced sale of all or substantially all of the assets related to its Stainless Design Concepts (“SDC”) business division to a subsidiary of the Atlas Copco Group based in Nacka, Sweden (the “Buyer”), pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 23, 2026 (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”).

Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company sold to the Buyer all or substantially all of the assets related to SDC, excluding any and all other assets of the Company and its affiliates, and the Buyer assumed certain specified liabilities, in each case as set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement.

The aggregate consideration paid to the Company in connection with the transaction was $16,900,000, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. At the closing, $900,000 of the purchase price was placed in escrow to secure post-closing adjustments and indemnification obligations in accordance with the Asset Purchase Agreement.

In connection with the foregoing, 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 Asset Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification provisions.

The foregoing description of the Asset Purchase Agreement and the Facility Lease does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreements, which the Company intends to file as exhibits to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending March 31, 2026.
