Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

In 2019, DIRTT Environmental Solutions, Inc. (the “Tenant”), a subsidiary of DIRTT Environmental Solutions Ltd. (the “Company” or “DIRTT”), entered into a 15-year lease (the “Lease”) for a build-to-suit building located at 2225 Williams Industrial Boulevard, Rock Hill, South Carolina (the “Building”) with SP Rock Hill Legacy East #1, LLC (“Landlord”) and Stag Industrial Holdings, LLC (“Seller”), which provided the Company with approximately 130,000 square feet of manufacturing space for a combined tile and millwork facility. In September 2023, the Company elected to permanently close the manufacturing facility located at the Building. As of November 30, 2025, the Company’s remaining rent obligations associated with the Lease were estimated at US$10.5 million on an undiscounted basis.

In September 2025, PDM US, LLC (“PDM”) entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with the Landlord for the Building. On November 12, 2025, the Tenant entered into a Lease Termination and Release Agreement (“Agreement”) with PDM to terminate the Lease contingent upon the closing of the Purchase and Sale Agreement. Effective December 30, 2025, the Lease was terminated pursuant to the Agreement, and the Tenant was relieved from any future rent obligations under the Lease in exchange for an early termination fee of US$1 million paid by the Tenant to PDM.

The foregoing summary of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Agreement, a copy of which will be filed as an exhibit to DIRTT’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.

 

“This action represents an important step in rationalizing DIRTT’s real estate footprint and is expected to deliver recurring annual cost savings of approximately US$1.6 million beginning in January 2026. As part of our volume- and margin-focused transformation, we remain committed to revisiting and optimizing all aspects of our business,” said Benjamin Urban, CEO of DIRTT.1

Item 2.06 Material Impairments.

Following the termination of the Lease, the Company reassessed its asset groups and evaluated such asset groups for impairment. As of September 30, 2025, the right-of-use asset related to this lease was US$5.9 million and the lease liability was US$7.7 million. The Company expects to recognize a one-time, non-cash impairment expense related to leasehold improvements of approximately US$2.3 million. While this charge is expected to negatively impact reported results in the current period, the lease termination is expected to reduce ongoing operating expenses and be accretive to earnings in future periods.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On December 30, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing the lease termination. A copy of that press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated into this Item 7.01 by reference.

The information set forth under Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Exhibit 99.1

DIRTT Confirms Early Termination of Lease Agreement for Former Rock Hill Facility

CALGARY, Alberta, January 5, 2026 – DIRTT Environmental Solutions Ltd. (“DIRTT”, the “Company”, “we”, “our”, “us” or “ours”) (TSX: DRT; OTCQX: DRTTF), a leader in industrialized construction, announced today that it has entered into an agreement for an early termination of the lease at its former Rock Hill, South Carolina manufacturing facility, effective December 30, 2025.

In September 2025, PDM US, LLC (“PDM”) entered into a purchase and sale agreement with the landlord, SP Rock Hill Legacy East #1, LLC, for the facility. In connection with that transaction, DIRTT entered into a Lease Termination and Release Agreement with PDM, contingent upon the closing of the purchase and sale agreement. With this agreement finalized, DIRTT has been relieved of all future rent obligations in exchange for a reduced early termination fee of $1.0 million.

DIRTT originally executed a 15-year build-to-suit lease for the Rock Hill facility in 2019. As part of broader operational initiatives, the Company permanently closed the facility in September 2023, shifting capacity to its Calgary manufacturing facilities. As of November 30, 2025, DIRTT’s remaining rent obligations under the lease were estimated at approximately $10.5 million on an undiscounted basis. “This action represents an important step in rationalizing DIRTT’s real estate footprint and is expected to deliver recurring annual cost savings of $1.6 million beginning in January 2026,” said Benjamin Urban, CEO of DIRTT. “As part of our volume- and margin-focused transformation, we remain committed to revisiting and optimizing all aspects of our business.”

As of September 30, 2025, the right-of-use asset related to this lease was $5.9 million and the lease liability was $7.7 million. The Company expects to recognize a one-time, non-cash impairment expense related to leasehold improvements of approximately $2.3 million. While this charge is expected to negatively impact reported results in the current period, the lease termination is expected to reduce ongoing operating expenses and be accretive to earnings in future periods.

DIRTT operates a multi-facility manufacturing footprint across North America, with four specialized facilities in Calgary, Alberta, producing casework, timber, metal, and finishes, and a major production plant in Savannah, Georgia.
