Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Effective October 23, 2026, UFP Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Fifth Amendment”) with the foreign subsidiary borrowers party thereto, the other loan parties thereto, the lenders party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, as administrative agent. The Fifth Amendment amends the Company’s existing Credit Agreement, dated as of November 1, 2018, as previously amended (the “Credit Agreement”), among the Company, the foreign subsidiary borrowers and lenders party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as syndication agent, and PNC Bank, National Association, as documentation agent.
The Fifth Amendment extends the maturity date of the Company’s existing $750 million revolving credit facility to October 23, 2031, the fifth anniversary of the effective date of the Fifth Amendment. The Fifth Amendment also increases the sublimits for swingline loans and letters of credit to $75 million each and modifies the facility’s foreign currency borrowing provisions such that foreign currency borrowings are limited to swingline loans made by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., in its capacity as swingline lender.
As of September 26, 2026, there were no cash borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility, and approximately $42 million of letters of credit were outstanding. Cash borrowings under the facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, at either (i) the Alternate Base Rate plus a margin ranging from 12.5 to 62.5 basis points or (ii) Adjusted Term SOFR plus a margin ranging from 112.5 to 162.5 basis points. The Company is also charged a facility fee on the aggregate amount of the lending commitments at a per annum rate ranging from 12.5 to 25.0 basis points. The applicable margins and facility fee rate are determined based on the Company’s adjusted leverage ratio and are payable quarterly in arrears.
Certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company have reaffirmed their guarantees of the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement, as amended by the Fifth Amendment, and such obligations continue to be secured by a pledge of a portion of the equity interests of certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries.
The foregoing description of the Fifth Amendment is a summary of its material terms and is not intended to be a complete description of the agreement. The Company expects to file the Fifth Amendment as an exhibit to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 26, 2026.

UFP Industries Expands Pallet Manufacturing Network Through Acquisition of Apache Products
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Oct. 26, 2026 — UFP Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq: UFPI) today announced the acquisition of the operating assets, including real estate, of Apache Products, Inc. dba Acme Skid, a pallet manufacturer based in Silsbee, Texas, for approximately $27 million. The transaction expands UFP Packaging's pallet manufacturing footprint and strengthens the company's ability to serve customers throughout the Gulf Coast, one of the country's largest industrial and petrochemical markets.
Apache Products designs and manufactures stringer and heat-treated pallets from its facility in Silsbee. The transaction adds approximately $55 million in annual sales and brings 165 employees into the UFP family. The addition strengthens a core business for UFP Industries and expands UFP Packaging's PalletOne network with immediate capacity and a strong platform for long-term growth.
“Apache is the kind of business we look for at UFP: an established market leader with long-standing customer relationships, a disciplined operation and an experienced team that has a proven track record of execution,” said Will Schwartz, chief executive officer of UFP Industries. “This acquisition tracks with our other investments this year—broadening our reach into a strategically important geography and creating opportunities to grow with our national customers across the region to create long-term value.”
The Apache facility will be integrated into UFP Packaging's existing pallet manufacturing network, creating opportunities to leverage UFP’s operational scale, national customer relationships and broader packaging platform while maintaining the local expertise and customer focus that have defined Apache's success.
“The Gulf Coast is one of the country's most important industrial packaging markets, driven by concentrated manufacturing, energy and petrochemical activity,” said Scott Worthington, president of UFP Packaging. “The team at Apache will expand our ability to support customers as they grow through greater efficiency, scale and access to a larger range of packaging solutions.”
The acquisition underscores UFP Industries’ continued focus on investing in core businesses, expanding manufacturing capacity to serve regional and national customers, and strengthening the competitive position of its operating companies across packaging and industrial markets. The transaction is expected to close on or around Nov. 16, 2026.
UFP Packaging is a leading provider of comprehensive industrial packaging solutions and the largest producer of wood pallets and crates in the United States. In addition to pallets, the company combines nationwide engineering and manufacturing expertise to develop custom, multi-material packaging systems that solve complex product protection and supply chain challenges. Its capabilities encompass structural and reusable metal packaging, custom and stock corrugated boxes, advanced printing and labeling, and other protective packaging solutions.
