Shares of Nortech Systems (NASDAQ:NSYS) have surged higher on Friday after the company announced on Thursday that it has completed the sale and leaseback transactions of its manufacturing facilities.
The facilities in Bemidji and Mankato, Minnesota sold for $6.3 million, with the proceeds being used to pay down debt and expenses, the company said.
Once the sale has been closed, Nortech will enter into a long-term lease agreement for the facilities for an initial 15-year term.
