“Our listing on NASDAQ is an exciting milestone for our Company that we’ve been considering and working toward for quite some time,” Ryan Pape, president and CEO of XPEL. “As a Texas-based company, it makes sense for XPEL to trade in the U.S. as an SEC registered company, and we believe this move will enhance our visibility in the marketplace, expose our company to a larger audience of investors and ultimately increase liquidity and shareholder value.”
