Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
- INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The accompanying (a) condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and (b) unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 have been prepared by XPEL, Inc. (“XPEL” or the “Company”) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Pursuant to these rules and regulations, certain financial information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements have been condensed or omitted. However, in the opinion of management, the financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the interim periods presented. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year or for any other interim period, due to variability in customer purchasing patterns and seasonal, operating and other factors.
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 as filed with the SEC on February 28, 2024 (the "Annual Report") and with the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section appearing elsewhere in this Report.
- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Business - The Company is based in San Antonio, Texas and sells, distributes, and installs protective films and coatings, including automotive paint protection film, surface protection film, automotive and commercial/architectural window films and ceramic coatings. The Company was incorporated in the state of Nevada, U.S.A. in October 2003.
Basis of Presentation - The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP") and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The functional currency for the Company is the United States ("U.S.") Dollar. The assets and liabilities of each of its wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate at the end of the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Gains and losses from translations are recognized in foreign currency translation included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Segment Reporting -Management has concluded that our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is our chief executive officer. The Company’s CODM reviews the entire organization’s consolidated results on a monthly basis to evaluate performance and make resource allocation decisions. Management views the Company’s operations and manages its business asone operating segment.
Use of Estimates -The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments and estimates and form assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Actual outcomes may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.
Accounts Receivable -Accounts receivable are shown net of allowances for expected credit losses of $0.2 million and $0.2 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company evaluates the adequacy of its allowances by analyzing the aging of receivables, customer financial condition, historical collection experience, the value of any collateral and other economic and industry factors. Actual collections may differ from historical experience, and if economic, business or customer conditions deteriorate significantly, adjustments to these reserves may be required. When the Company becomes aware of factors that indicate a change in a specific customer’s ability to meet its financial obligations, the Company records a specific reserve for credit losses.
Provisions and Warranties -We provide a warranty on our products. Liability under the warranty policy is based on a review of historical warranty claims. Adjustments are made to the accruals as claims and data experience warrant. Our liability for warranties as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $0.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The following tables present a summary of our accrued warranty liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 (in thousands):
| 2024 | |
|---|---|
| Warranty liability, January 1 | $422 |

- REVENUE
Revenue recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of the promised goods and services to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. This is achieved through applying the following five-step model:
Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer
Identification of the performance obligations in the contract
Determination of the transaction price
Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation
The Company generates substantially all of its revenue from contracts with customers, whether formal or implied. Sales taxes collected from customers are remitted to the appropriate taxing jurisdictions and are excluded from sales revenue as the Company considers itself a pass-through conduit for collecting and remitting sales taxes, with the exception of taxes assessed during the procurement process of select inventories. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of sales.
Revenue from product and services sales is recognized when control of the goods, or benefit of the service, is furnished to the customer. This occurs at a point in time, typically upon shipment to the customer or completion of the service. This standard applies to all contracts with customers, except for contracts that are within the scope of other standards, such as leases, insurance, collaboration arrangements and financial instruments.
Based upon the nature of the products the Company sells, its customers have limited rights of return and those present are immaterial. Discounts provided by the Company to customers at the time of sale are recognized as a reduction in sales as the products are sold.
Warranty obligations associated with the sale of our products are assurance-type warranties that are a guarantee of the product’s intended functionality and, therefore, do not represent a distinct performance obligation within the context of the contract. Warranty expense is included in cost of sales.
We apply a practical expedient to expense direct costs of obtaining a contract when incurred because the amortization period would be one year or less.
Under its contracts with customers, the Company stands ready to deliver product upon receipt of a purchase order. Accordingly, the Company has no performance obligations under its contracts until its customers submit a purchase order. The Company does not enter into commitments to provide goods or services that have terms greater than one year. In limited cases, the Company does require payment in advance of shipping product. Typically, product is shipped within a few days after prepayment is received. These prepayments are recorded as contract liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities (Note 9). As the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of less than one year, the Company has applied the practical expedient under the Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606 ("ASC 606") to omit disclosures regarding remaining performance obligations.
When the Company transfers goods or provides services to a customer, payment is due, subject to normal terms, and is not conditional on anything other than the passage of time. Typical payment terms range from due upon receipt to due within 30 days, depending on the type of customer and relationship. At contract inception, the Company expects that the period of time between the transfer of goods to the customer and when the customer pays for those goods will be less than one year, which is consistent with the Company’s standard payment terms. Accordingly, the Company has elected the practical expedient under ASC 606 to not adjust for the effects of a significant financing component. As such, these amounts are recorded as receivables and not contract assets.

- DEBT
REVOLVING FACILITIES
The Company has a revolving credit facility providing for secured revolving loans and letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $125 million, which is subject to the terms of a credit agreement dated April 6, 2023 (the "Credit Agreement"). As of September 30, 2024, no balance was outstanding under the Credit Agreement. At December 31, 2023, the Company had an outstanding balance of $19 million under the Credit Agreement.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at XPEL’s option, at a rate equal to either (a) Base Rate or (b) Adjusted Term SOFR. In addition to the applicable interest rate, the Credit Agreement includes a commitment fee ranging from 0.20% to 0.25% per annum for the unused portion of the aggregate commitment and an applicable margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.50% for Base Rate Loans and 1.00% to 1.50% for Adjusted Term SOFR Loans. At September 30, 2024, these rates were 8.0% and 6.3%, respectively. Both the margin applicable to the interest rate and the commitment fee are dependent on XPEL’s Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio. The Credit Agreement's maturity date is April 6, 2026. All capitalized terms in this description of the Credit Agreement that are not otherwise defined in this report have the meaning assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.
Obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority perfected security interest, subject to certain permitted encumbrances, in all of XPEL’s material property and assets.
The terms of the Credit Agreement include certain affirmative and negative covenants that require, among other things, XPEL to maintain legal existence and remain in good standing, comply with applicable laws, maintain accounting records, deliver financial statements and certifications on a timely basis, pay taxes as required by law, and maintain insurance coverage, as well as to forgo certain specified future activities that might otherwise encumber XPEL. The Credit Agreement provides fortwo financial covenants, as follows:
As of the last day of each fiscal quarter:
XPEL shall not allow its Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio to exceed 3.50 to 1.00, and
XPEL shall not allow its Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio to be less than 3.00 to 1.00
The Company also has a CAD $4.5 million revolving credit facility through HSBC Bank Canada, and is maintained by XPEL Canada Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of XPEL. This Canadian facility is utilized to fund the Company's working capital needs in Canada. This facility bears interest at HSBC Canada Bank’s prime rate plus 0.25% per annum and is guaranteed by the parent company. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no balance was outstanding on this line of credit.
As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

The following table presents significant accounts payable and accrued liability balances as of the periods ending (in thousands):
| September 30, 2024 | December 31, 2023 | |

- FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:
Level 1 – Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly, including: quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market data and require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
Financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, our line of credit, and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, our line of credit, and short-term borrowings approximate fair value because of the near-term maturities of these financial instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s notes payable approximates fair value due to the relatively short-term nature and interest rates of the notes. The carrying value of the Company's long-term debt approximates fair value due to the interest rates being market rates.
The estimated fair value of debt is based on market quotes for instruments with similar terms and remaining maturities.
The Company has contingent liabilities related to future internal performance milestones. The fair value of these liabilities was determined using a Monte Carlo Simulation based on the probability and timing of certain future payments under these arrangements. These liabilities are accounted for as Level 3 liabilities within the fair value hierarchy.
Liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of the dates noted below are as follows (in thousands):
| September 30, 2024 | December 31, 2023 | |
|---|---|---|
| Level 3: | ||
| Contingent Liabilities | $1,091 | $815 |
Decreases in the fair value of level 3 contingent liabilities are reflected in general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.
- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In the ordinary course of business activities, the Company may be contingently liable for litigation and claims including those pertaining to customers, suppliers and former employees. Management believes that adequate provisions have been recorded in the accounts where required. Management also has determined that the likelihood of any class action or other litigation and claims having a material impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial position is remote.
- EARNINGS PER SHARE
We compute basic earnings per share by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share includes effect of granted incremental restricted stock units.
The following table reconciles basic and diluted weighted average shares used in the computation of earnings per share (in thousands except per share values):

- ACQUISITIONS OF BUSINESSES
During 2024, we have acquired certain companies for an aggregate purchase price of $8.0 million. These acquisitions were primarily completed to increase the geographical footprint of our installation service businesses and to expand our product offerings into new applications.
Our valuation models related to the contingent liabilities, identified intangible assets, and goodwill included in these acquisitions are not yet finalized and these figures are presented on a preliminary basis. Accounting for these items will be finalized within 12 months of each acquisition date. Purchase price allocations for other acquired items is finalized. Accordingly, the total preliminary purchase price for acquisitions completed during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 is as follows (in thousands):
| Aggregate Purchase Price | |
|---|---|
| Cash1 | $7,276 |
| Contingent consideration | 700 |

| Customer Relationships2 | 1,099 |
| Goodwill3 | 5,595 |
| Operating lease liabilities | (2,831) |
| $7,976 | |
| 1Total cash consideration is comprised of amounts paid on closing dates plus holdback amounts to be paid in the future net of working capital deficiencies to be reclaimed from seller. 2The weighted average useful life of acquired amortizable intangible assets is 9 years.3The full value of this acquired goodwill is expected to be tax deductible. | |
Acquisitions completed during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 have not yet contributed substantially to our consolidated operating results. The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents our results, including expenses relating to the amortization of intangibles purchased, as if the acquisitions completed during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 had occurred on January 1, 2024 and 2023, respectively (in thousands):
| Nine Months Ended | ||
|---|---|---|
| September 30, | ||
| 2024 | 2023 | |
| Revenue | $316,671 | $297,444 |
| Net income | $36,848 | $41,134 |
The unaudited consolidated pro forma combined financial information does not purport to be indicative of the results which would have been obtained had the acquisitions been completed as of the beginning of the earliest period presented or of results that may be obtained in the future. In addition, this financial information does not include any benefits that may result from the acquisition due to synergies that may be derived from the elimination of any duplicative costs.
Valuations and purchase price allocations for acquisitions completed in the latter half of 2023 have been finalized with minor changes to goodwill and other acquired intangible assets.
