1.    INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The accompanying (a) condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020, which has been derived from consolidated audited financial statements, and (b) unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 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 audited consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 as filed with the SEC on March 11, 2021.  These condensed consolidated financial statements also should be read in conjunction with the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section appearing in this Report.

2.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Segment Reporting - Management has concluded that XPEL's chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the Company's chief executive officer. The Company’s CODM reviews the entire organization’s consolidated results as a whole on a monthly basis to evaluate performance and make resource allocation decisions. Management views the Company’s operations and manages its business as one operating segment.
Use of Estimates - The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity to U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments and estimates and form assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at 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 an allowance for doubtful accounts of $191,804 and $90,844 as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 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. The Company had no significant accounts receivable concentration as of September 30, 2021. At December 31, 2020, receivable balances from two large customers accounted for 24.7% of the Company's total trade receivables.
Provisions and Warranties - We provide a warranty on the Company's products. Liability under the warranty policy is based on a review of historical warranty claims. Adjustments are made to the accruals based on actual claims data. The Company's liability for warranties as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $49,927 and $52,006, respectively. The following tables present a summary of our accrued warranty liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2020:

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The ASU removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This ASU was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within that fiscal year. The Company has adopted this ASU without a material change to its condensed consolidated financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Issued and Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments — Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, which requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2023 and is required to be applied prospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-13 will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

3.    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

XPEL Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
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.
Revenues from product and services sales are recognized when control of the goods is transferred to the customer which 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 these rights are immaterial. Discounts provided by the Company to customers at the time of sale are recognized as a reduction in sales at the time of the sale.
Warranty obligations associated with the sale of the Company's 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 have been one year or less.
Under its contracts with customers, the Company stands ready to deliver product upon receipt of a customer's 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 requires 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 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 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 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.

8.    DEBT
REVOLVING FACILITIES
The Company has a $57.0 million revolving line of credit with Texas Partners Bank (which does business as the Bank of San Antonio) and a Canadian Dollar ("CAD") $4.5 million revolving credit facility maintained by the Company's Canadian subsidiary. The Texas Partners Bank facility was established on May 21, 2021 and replaced an $8.50 million revolving facility and a $6.0 million term loan facility. The outstanding balances on these prior loan agreements were fully repaid by the Company and these agreements were terminated when we entered into the new facility. The facility is utilized to fund the Company's working capital needs and other strategic initiatives, and is secured by a security interest in substantially all of the Company's current and future assets. Borrowings under the credit agreement bear interest on borrowed amounts at the Wall Street Journal U.S. Prime Rate less 0.75% per annum if the Company's EBITDA ratio is equal to or less than 2.00 to 1.00 or the Wall Street Journal U.S. Prime rate less 0.25% if the Company's EBITDA ratio (as defined in the facility) is greater than 2.00 to 1.00. The facility also contains a fee of 0.25% of the unused capacity on the facility. The interest rate for this credit facility as of September 30, 2021 was 2.50%. The Company paid interest charges on borrowings under this facility of $25,208 during the three months ended September 30, 2021. As of September 30, 2021, no balance was outstanding on this line. This facility matures on July 5, 2024.
The Loan Agreement governing the facility contains customary covenants relating to maintaining legal existence and good standing, complying with applicable laws, delivery of financial statements, payment of taxes and maintaining insurance. The Loan Agreement contains two financial covenants:
(1) Senior Funded Debt (as defined in the Loan Agreement) divided by EBITDA (as defined in the Loan Agreement) at or below 3.50 : 1.00 when tested at the end of each fiscal quarter on a rolling four-quarter basis, and
(2) A minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of 1.25 : 1.00 at the end of each fiscal quarter when measured on a rolling four-quarter basis.
As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.
XPEL Canada Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of XPEL, Inc., also has a CAD $4.5 million revolving credit facility through HSBC Bank Canada. This 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, 2021 and December 31, 2020, no balance was outstanding on this line of credit.

Total $31,654,155 $16,797,462 

10.    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 and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term borrowings approximate fair value because of the near-term maturities of these
14

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
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 (Level 2 inputs and valuation techniques).
The Company incurred contingent liabilities in relation to one of its 2020 acquisitions. The payment of these liabilities is contingent on attainment of certain revenue performance metrics in future years. The fair value of these liabilities was determined using a Monte Carlo Simulation method based on the probability and timing of certain future payments related to these metrics. 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:
September 30, 2021December 31, 2020
Level 3:
     Contingent Liabilities$334,630 $571,833 
We assessed the fair value of these contingent considerations liabilities as of September 30, 2021. This assessment resulted in a reduction in the fair value of the liability of $237,203. This reduction is reflected in general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

11.    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
CONTINGENCIES
In the ordinary course of business activities, the Company may be contingently liable for litigation and claims with 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 litigation and claims having a material impact on the Company's results of operations, cash flows or financial position is remote.

Forward-looking statements may be contained in the notes to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and elsewhere in this report, including under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”
Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations about future events affecting the Company and are subject to uncertainties and factors that affect all businesses operating in a global market as well as matters specific to the Company. These uncertainties and factors are difficult to predict, and many of them are beyond the Company’s control. Factors to consider when evaluating these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:
One supplier is the main source of our paint protection film.
We currently rely on one distributor for sales of our products in China.
A material portion of our business is in China, which may be an unpredictable market and is currently suffering trade tensions with the U.S.
We must continue to attract, retain and develop key personnel.
Our accounting estimates and risk management processes rely on assumptions or models that may prove inaccurate.
We must maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting to keep stockholder confidence.
Our industry is highly competitive.
Our business is highly dependent on automotive sales and production volumes.
Our North American market is currently designed for the public’s use of car dealerships to purchase automobiles which may dramatically change.
Our revenue could be impacted by growing use of ride-sharing or other alternate forms of car ownership.
The growing popularity of electric vehicles and other technology could impact our revenue or render some of our products obsolete.
We must be effective in developing new lines of business and new products to maintain growth.
Any disruptions in our relationships with independent installers and new car dealerships could harm our sales.
Our strategy related to acquisitions and investments could be unsuccessful or consume significant resources.
We must maintain and grow our network of sales, distribution channels and customer base to be successful.
We are exposed to a wide range of risks due to the multinational nature of our business.
We must continue to manage our rapid growth effectively.
We are subject to claims and litigation in the ordinary course of our business, including product liability and warranty claims.
We are an “emerging growth company” which may impact investor perception of our Company.
We must comply with a broad and complicated regime of domestic and international trade compliance, anti-corruption, economic, intellectual property, cybersecurity, data protection and other regulatory regimes.
We may seek to incur substantial indebtedness in the future.
Our growth may be dependent on the availability of capital and funding.
Our Common Stock could decline or be downgraded at any time.
Our stock price has been, and may continue to be, volatile.
19


We may issue additional equity securities that may affect the priority of our Common Stock.
We do not currently pay dividends on our Common Stock.
Shares eligible for future sale may depress our stock price.
Anti-takeover provisions could make a third party acquisition of our Company difficult.
Our directors and officers have substantial control over us.
Our bylaws may limit investors’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes.
The COVID-19 pandemic could materially affect our business.
Our business faces unpredictable global, economic and business conditions.
Fluctuations in the cost and availability of raw materials, equipment, labor and transportation could cause manufacturing delays, increase our costs and/or impact our ability to meet customer demand.
We believe the items we have outlined above are important factors that could cause estimates included in our financial statements to differ materially from actual results and those expressed in a forward-looking statement made in this report or elsewhere by us or on our behalf.  We have discussed these factors in more detail in our annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 11, 2021. These factors are not necessarily all of the factors that could affect us. Unpredictable or unanticipated factors we have not discussed in this report could also have material adverse effects on actual results. We do not intend to update our description of important factors each time a potential important factor arises, except as required by applicable securities laws and regulations. We advise our shareholders that they should (1) be aware that factors not referred to above could affect the accuracy of our forward-looking statements and (2) use caution when considering our forward-looking statements.
Executive Summary
Set forth below is summary financial information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. This information is not necessarily indicative of results of future operations, and should be read in conjunction with Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included in Part II, Item 8 of our annual report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 11, 2021, to fully understand factors that may affect the comparability of the information presented below.
Company Overview
Founded in 1997 and incorporated in Nevada in 2003, XPEL has grown from an automotive product design software company to a global provider of after-market automotive products, including automotive surface and paint protection, headlight protection, and automotive window films, as well as a provider of complementary proprietary software. In 2018, we expanded our product offerings to include architectural window film (both commercial and residential) and security film protection for commercial and residential uses, and in 2019 we further expanded our product line to include automotive ceramic coatings.
XPEL began as a software company designing vehicle patterns used to produce cut-to-fit protective film for the painted surfaces of automobiles. In 2007, we began selling automotive surface and paint protection film products to complement our software business. In 2011, we introduced our ULTIMATE protective film product line which, at the time, was the industry’s first protective film with self-healing properties. The ULTIMATE technology allows the protective film to better absorb the impacts from rocks or other road debris, thereby fully protecting the painted surface of a vehicle. The film is described as “self-healing” due to its ability to return to its original state after damage from surface scratches.
20


The launch of the ULTIMATE product catapulted XPEL into several years of strong revenue growth. In 2014, we began our international expansion by establishing an office in the United Kingdom. In 2015, we acquired Parasol Canada, a distributor of our products in Canada. In 2017, we established our European headquarters in The Netherlands, and expanded our product offerings to include an automotive protective window film branded as PRIME We continued our international expansion in 2017 with the acquisition of Protex Canada Corp., or Protex Canada, a leading franchisor of automotive protective film franchises serving Canada, and opened our XPEL Mexico office. In 2018, we launched our first product offering outside of the automotive industry, a window and security film protection for commercial and residential uses. Also in 2018, we introduced the next generation of our highly successful ULTIMATE line, ULTIMATE PLUS. As 2018 came to a close, we acquired Apogee Corporation which led to formation of XPEL Asia based in Taiwan. In 2020, as a continuation of our get close to the customer strategy, we acquired Protex Centre, a wholesale-focused paint protection installation business based in Montreal, Canada, and expanded our presence in France with the acquisition of certain assets of France Auto Racing. We also expanded our architectural window film presence with the acquisition of Houston based Veloce Innovation, a leading provider of architectural films for use in residential, commercial, marine and industrial settings. In May 2021, we expanded our presence into numerous automotive dealerships throughout the United States through the acquisition of PermaPlate Film, a wholesale-focused automotive window film installation and distribution business based in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Strategic Overview
XPEL is currently pursuing several key strategic initiatives to drive continued growth. Our global expansion strategy focuses on the need to establish a local presence where possible, allowing us to better control the delivery of our products and services. In furtherance of this approach, we established our European headquarters in early 2017 to capture market share in what we believed to be an under-penetrated region. We are continuing to add locally based regional sales personnel, leveraging local knowledge and relationships to expand the markets in which we operate.
We seek to increase global brand awareness in strategically important areas, including seeking high visibility at premium events such as major car shows and high value placement in advertising media consumed by car enthusiasts, to help further expand the Company’s premium brand.
XPEL also continues to expand its delivery channels by acquiring select installation facilities in key markets and acquiring international partners to enhance its global reach. As we expand globally, we strive to tailor our distribution model to adapt to target markets. We believe this flexibility allows us to penetrate and grow market share more efficiently. Our acquisition strategy is founded on our belief that the closer the Company is to its end customers, the greater its ability to drive increased product sales.
We also continue to drive expansion of our non-automotive product portfolio. The Company launched its new commercial/residential window film product line in 2018, giving us access to a large new market and representing the first non-automotive product line in XPEL’s history. While there is some overlap with our existing customers, we believe that this product line exposes the Company to several new addressable markets.
Trends and Uncertainties
During the three months ended September 30, 2021, our operations have continued without major negative impacts from either COVID-19 or global supply chain issues. Throughout the first nine months of 2021, revenue has increased substantially in all major geographic areas over the prior year period. Despite continued positive trends, the long-term effects of COVID-19 and/or global supply chain issues on our financial results in future periods could still be significant and cannot be reasonably estimated due to the volatility, uncertainty and economic disruption caused by the pandemic or global supply chain issues. See the risk factor “The COVID-19 pandemic could materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations” included in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for

further discussion of the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
As we look ahead, we are unable to determine or predict the continuing impact the COVID-19 pandemic or potential global supply chain interruptions will have on our customers, vendors and suppliers or our business; nor can we predict its impact on our results of operations or financial condition. Despite the gradual reduction of restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic and the apparent recovery of our operations, significant uncertainty still exists concerning the overall magnitude of the impact and the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting economic implications, particularly given the recent increase in COVID-19 related illnesses. For example, automotive sales and production are highly cyclical, and the cyclical nature of the industry has been compounded by the fallout of COVID-19. As supply and demand for automotive products fluctuates or decreases in this unusual business environment, the demand for our products may also fluctuate or decrease. Some automotive manufacturers have announced that they are experiencing a global semiconductor shortage which has affected production of vehicles resulting in low inventories. While we have yet to see a significant impact on the Company's core business, low car dealership inventories have had an impact on the PermaPlate Films' business that we acquired in the second quarter this year. To the extent that this shortage persists and/or begins to impact our core business, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial conditions and results of operations. Refer to "Part I, Item 1A Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional consideration of the cyclical nature of the automotive industry. We will continue to closely monitor updates regarding the continuing impact of COVID-19, global supply chain challenges and automotive sales, and we will adjust our operations for changes in those factors.
We and our suppliers depend on various components, compounds and raw materials supplied by others for the manufacturing of our products. While we have not experienced disruptions, supplier relationships could be interrupted in the future due to material shortages, natural and other disasters and other disruptive events, or be terminated. Any sustained interruption in the Company’s receipt of adequate supplies or operations due to natural and other disasters or events could have a material adverse effect on the Company. In addition, disruptions in the global economy in 2020 and the lingering impacts into 2021 have resulted in inflationary cost increases in certain raw materials, labor and transportation. We expect these inflationary trends to continue for some time, and while we believe that we will be able to somewhat offset the impact, there can be no assurances that unforeseen future events in the global supply chain, and inflationary pressures, will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Key Business Metric - Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Our management regularly monitors certain financial measures to track the progress of our business against internal goals and targets. We believe that the most important measure to the Company is Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA).
EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe EBITDA provides helpful information with respect to our operating performance as viewed by management, including a view of our business that is not dependent on (i) the impact of our capitalization structure and (ii) items that are not part of our day-to-day operations. Management uses EBITDA (1) to compare our operating performance on a consistent basis, (2) to calculate incentive compensation for our employees, (3) for planning purposes including the preparation of our internal annual operating budget, (4) to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of our operational strategies, and (5) to assess compliance with various metrics associated with the agreements governing our indebtedness. Accordingly, we believe that EBITDA provides useful information in understanding and evaluating our operating performance in the same manner as management. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) plus (a) total depreciation and amortization, (b) interest expense, net, and (c) income tax expense.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. It is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to revenue or net income (loss), as applicable, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other businesses. EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under GAAP.
EBITDA does not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of ongoing operations; and other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Service gross margin increased approximately $2.3 million, or 47.0%, over the three months ended September 30, 2020. This represented 62.1% and 73.9% of total service revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company added additional installers in connection with its PermaPlate Film acquisition (Note 12). PermaPlate Film's business is more correlated to the arrival of new vehicles at car dealerships rather than new car sales. As a consequence of low new car inventories, our PermaPlate Film business is operating at approximately 70% capacity resulting in lower service margins.
Service gross margin increased approximately $7.7 million, or 67.0%, over the nine months ended September 30, 2020. This represented 67.4% and 71.6% of total service revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The relative decrease in service gross margin percentage for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was due primarily to the impact of our PermaPlate Film business operating at reduced capacity as described above.
Operating Expenses
Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2021 increased 110.7% compared to the same period in 2020. These expenses represented 7.2% and 5.0% of total consolidated revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. This increase was due primarily to acquisition related expansion, hiring of sales personnel, and increases in marketing related expenses to support the ongoing growth of the business.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, sales and marketing expenses increased 85.7% compared to the same period in 2020. These expenses represented 6.9% and 6.3% of total consolidated revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. This increase was due primarily to acquisition related expansion, hiring of sales personnel, and increases in marketing related expenses to support the ongoing growth of the business.
General and administrative expenses grew approximately $3.9 million, or 73.6% over the three months ended September 30, 2020. These costs represented 13.4% and 11.5% of total consolidated revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Excluding acquisition related expenses, general and administrative costs for the three months ended September 30, 2021 increased by approximately 61.3% and represented approximately 12.4% of total consolidated revenue. The increase was due mainly to increases in personnel, occupancy costs and information technology costs to support the on-going growth of the business.
General and administrative expenses grew approximately $8.4 million, or 55.8%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 over the same period in 2020. These costs represented 12.4% and 13.6% of total consolidated revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase was due mainly to increases in personnel, occupancy costs and information technology costs to support the on-going growth of the business. Excluding acquisition related expenses, general and administrative costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 increased by approximately 48.8% and represented approximately 11.8% of total consolidated revenue.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2021 increased $0.1 million from the three months ended September 30, 2020, Our effective tax rate was 18.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared with 20.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease in the effective rate was due primarily to increased deductions related to foreign-derived intangible income ("FDII") in connection with the 2017 Tax Reform and Jobs Act and increased research and development credits associated with our research and development activities.

Income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 increased $2.7 million from the same period in 2020, Our effective tax rate was 19.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared with 21.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease in the effective rate was due primarily to increased deductions related to FDII in connection with the 2017 Tax Reform and Jobs Act and increased research and development credits associated with our research and development activities.
Net Income
Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2021 increased 26.1% to $8.3 million.
Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 increased 108.0% to $25.4 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The primary source of liquidity for our business is cash and cash equivalents and cash flows provided by operations. As of September 30, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of $7.8 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, cash flows provided by operations were $20.2 million. We expect to continue to have sufficient access to cash to support working capital needs, capital expenditures (including acquisitions), and to pay interest and service debt, if applicable. We believe we have the ability and sufficient resources to meet these cash requirements by using available cash, internally generated funds and borrowing under committed credit facilities. We are focused on continuing to generate positive operating cash to fund our operational and capital investment initiatives. We believe we have sufficient liquidity to operate for at least the next 12 months from the date of filing this report.
Operating activities. Cash flows provided by operations totaled approximately $20.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $14.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. This increase was due mainly to increases in operating earnings, with net income more than doubling over the prior year period, and changes in working capital.
Investing activities. Cash flows used in investing activities totaled approximately $35.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to $2.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. This increase was due mainly to the acquisition of PermaPlate Films (Note 12) and purchases of fixed assets as the Company expands its operating locations.
Financing activities. Cash flows used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 totaled approximately $5.6 million compared to cash inflows of $4.2 million in the prior year. This cash use was due primarily payments on term loans.
Debt obligations as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 totaled approximately $0.6 million and $6.1 million, respectively.
Credit Facilities
As of September 30, 2021, we had a $57 million revolving line of credit agreement with Texas Partners Bank (which does business as the Bank of San Antonio) and a CAD $4.5 million revolving credit facility maintained by our Canadian subsidiary. The Texas Partners Bank facility was established on May 21, 2021 and replaced an $8.5 million revolving facility and a $6 million term loan facility. The outstanding balances on the prior loan agreements were fully repaid by the Company and the agreements were terminated when we entered into the new facility. The facility is utilized to fund our working capital needs and other strategic initiatives and is secured by a security interest in substantially all of our current and future assets. Borrowings under the credit agreement bear interest on borrowed amounts at the Wall Street Journal U.S. Prime Rate less 0.75% per annum if the Company's EBITDA ratio (as defined in the
30


facility) is equal to or less than 2.00 to 1.00 or the Wall Street Journal U.S. Prime rate less 0.25% if the Company's EBITDA ratio is greater than 2.00 to 1.00. The interest rate for this credit facility as of September 30, 2021 was 2.50%. The Company paid interest charges on borrowings under this facility of $45,292 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. As of September 30, 2021, no balance was outstanding on this line. This facility matures on July 5, 2024.
The Loan Agreement governing the facility contains customary covenants relating to maintaining legal existence and good standing, complying with applicable laws, delivery of financial statements, payment of taxes and maintaining insurance. The Loan Agreement contains two financial covenants. The Company must maintain:
1.Senior Funded Debt divided (as defined in the Loan Agreement) by EBITDA (as defined in the Loan Agreement) at or below 3.50 : 1.00 when tested at the end of each fiscal quarter on a rolling four-quarter basis, and
2.A minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of 1.25 : 1.00 at the end of each fiscal quarter when measured on a rolling four-quarter basis.
XPEL Canada Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of XPEL, Inc., also has a CAD $4.5 million revolving credit facility through HSBC Bank Canada. This facility is utilized to fund our 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, 2021 and December 31, 2020, no balance was outstanding on this facility.

Contractual Obligations
There has been no material change to the Company’s contractual obligations as described in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 11, 2021.

Critical Accounting Policies
There have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates from the information provided in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 11, 2021.

There are no arrangements or understandings between any two or more of our directors or executive officers, and there is no arrangement, plan or understanding as to whether non-management stockholders will exercise their voting rights to continue to elect the current Board. There are also no arrangements, agreements or understandings between non-management stockholders that may directly or indirectly participate in or influence the management of our affairs.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated organizations or special purpose entities that were established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We do not engage in off-balance sheet financing arrangements. In addition, we do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange contracts.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We have operations that expose us to currency risk in the British Pound Sterling, the Canadian Dollar, the Euro, the Mexican Peso, and the New Taiwanese Dollar. Amounts invested in our foreign operations are translated into U.S. Dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders’ equity in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We do not currently hedge our exposure to potential foreign currency translation adjustments.
If we borrow under our revolving lines of credit, we will be subject to market risk resulting from changes in interest rates related to our floating rate bank credit facilities. If we were to make such borrowings, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in variable interest rates may result in a material impact to our financial statements. We do not currently have any derivative contracts to hedge our exposure to interest rate risk. During each of the periods presented, we have not experienced a significant effect on our business due to changes in interest rates.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We have established and maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO have each concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
32


From time to time, we are made parties to actions filed or have been given notice of potential claims relating to the ordinary conduct of our business, including those pertaining to commercial disputes, product liability, patent infringement and employment matters.
While we believe that a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows from any such future claims or potential claims is unlikely, given the inherent uncertainty of litigation, it is possible that an unforeseen future adverse ruling or unfavorable development could result in future charges that could have a material adverse impact. We do and will continue to periodically reexamine our estimates of probable liabilities and any associated expenses and receivables and make appropriate adjustments to such estimates based on experience and developments in litigation. As a result, the current estimates of the potential impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the proceedings and claims described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements could change in the future.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in “Item 1A Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 11, 2021, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 11, 2021 are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
The COVID-19 pandemic could materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
The global pandemic resulting from the outbreak of COVID-19 has disrupted global health, economic and market conditions, consumer behavior and the Company's global operations beginning in early 2020. We cannot predict how the pandemic will continue to develop or to what extent the pandemic may have longer term unanticipated impacts on our global operations.
The spread of COVID-19 has caused us to modify our business practices (including employee travel, employee work locations, cancellation of physical participation in meetings, events and conferences, and social distancing measures), and we may take further actions as may be required by government authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, partners, vendors, and suppliers. Work-from-home and other measures introduce additional operational risks, including cybersecurity risks, and have affected the way we conduct our product development, validation, and qualification, customer support, and other activities, which could have an adverse effect on our operations. There is no certainty that such measures will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the virus, and illness and workforce disruptions could lead to unavailability of key personnel and harm our ability to perform critical functions.
Fluctuations in the cost and availability of raw materials, equipment, labor and transportation could cause manufacturing delays, increase our costs and/or impact our ability to meet customer demand.
The price and availability of key components used to manufacture our products may fluctuate significantly. Any fluctuations and the cost and availability of any of our products and/or any interruptions in the delivery of our products could harm our gross margins and our ability to meet customer demand. If we are unable to successfully mitigate these cost increases, supply interruptions and/or labor shortages, our results of operations could be affected.
