CVD Equipment Corporation Announces Sale of its Tantaline Subsidiary

CVD Equipment Corporation (NASDAQ: CVV), a leading provider of chemical vapor deposition and thermal process equipment, today announced the sale of its subsidiary, Tantaline CVD ApS (Tantaline) located in Denmark.

The sales price consists principally of an earn-out provision based on any net income that Tantaline may earn during the five-year period ending December 31, 2027. The Company expects to record a loss on the sale of approximately $250,000 during the quarter ending June 30, 2023.

The revenues and net income of Tantaline for the most recent fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 were $1.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The revenues and net income of Tantaline for the three months ended March 31, 2023 were $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

In 2021, CVD Equipment initiated a strategic assessment of its business, specifically evaluating the growth and profitability of each of the Company’s product lines, that included Tantaline which provides corrosion resistant surface treatments. Tantaline had recently experienced a decline in revenues and would have required further capital investment. The disposition of this non-core product line allows the Company to continue to focus on its core growth markets of high-power electronics, EV battery materials/energy storage and aerospace & defense.

“We remain committed to our strategic plan to achieve consistent long-term profitability, growth and return on investment. Aligned with our Company’s core competencies, we will continue evaluating market opportunities with high growth potential and continue focusing on “enabling tomorrow’s technologies™ within strategic growth markets.” said Emmanuel Lakios, President and CEO of CVD Equipment Corporation.
