1847 Holdings Announces Letter of Intent for Sale of CMD Subsidiary for $65 Million in All-Cash Transaction

Proposed Transaction Would Represent A Significant Return on Investment and, If Completed, Would Result in a Debt-Free Company with Three Operating Subsidiaries

Definitive Agreement Targeted Within 60–90 Days; Transaction Aligns with 1847’s Value-Creation Strategy

NEW YORK, NY, April 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — 1847 Holdings LLC (OTC: LBRA) (“1847” or the “Company”), a diversified acquisition holding company focused on identifying and monetizing overlooked, deep-value businesses, today announced that it has entered into a non-binding letter of intent (“LOI”) for the sale of its wholly owned subsidiary, CMD, Inc. (“CMD”), to a strategic buyer backed by a major global private equity firm.

Under the terms of the LOI, the proposed transaction values CMD at $65 million in an all-cash transaction, subject to the negotiation and execution of definitive transaction documents, customary closing conditions, and the completion of confirmatory due diligence. The Company currently expects to execute a definitive agreement and close the transaction within approximately 60 to 90 days, although there can be no assurance that a definitive agreement will be reached or that the transaction will be consummated.

The Company acquired CMD in December 2024 for approximately $18.75 million. If the transaction is consummated at the contemplated price, the sale would represent a return of approximately three times the original purchase price over a holding period of approximately one and a half years.

If the transaction is consummated as contemplated, the Company expects to use proceeds to repay all outstanding debt. Following such repayment, the Company would evaluate the deployment of remaining capital in support of its continuing operations and potential future acquisitions.

Ellery W. Roberts, CEO of 1847 Holdings, commented, “Entering into this LOI is an important step for our company. While the LOI is non-binding and there can be no assurance that a definitive agreement will be reached, we acquired CMD at what we believed to be an attractive valuation, focused on operational improvements, and are pleased to have reached this non-binding letter of intent. The proposed $65 million, all-cash transaction reflects both the buyer’s interest in the asset and our efforts during the holding period.”

“If the transaction is completed, we would retain three operating subsidiaries – Wolo Manufacturing, Kyle’s Custom Wood Shop, and Innovative Cabinets & Design. We believe these businesses present opportunities for continued value creation. With reduced debt and existing operations, we would be positioned to evaluate additional acquisitions consistent with our strategy.”

CMD provides cabinetry, millwork, and door solutions serving multi-family residential, institutional, and commercial markets. The prospective buyer is a strategic participant in the building products sector.
No binding commitment with respect to the proposed transaction exists, and there can be no assurance that a definitive agreement will be executed or that the transaction will be consummated on the terms described herein or at all.

Mr. Roberts added, “This proposed transaction is consistent with our approach to value creation. We believe there may be a disconnect between the value of our portfolio and our current public market valuation, and we look forward to continuing to execute on our strategy.”
