Section 2— Financial Information
Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On December 8, 2025, The Toro Company, a Delaware corporation (“TTC”), completed its previously announced acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding securities of Tornado Infrastructure Equipment Ltd. (TSX-V: TGH), a corporation existing under the laws of the Province of Alberta (“Tornado”) (the “Acquisition”). Based in Calgary, Alberta, Tornado is a publicly held manufacturer of vacuum trucks and industrial equipment solutions for the underground construction, power transmission and energy markets.
Pursuant to the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, dated October 6, 2025, Tornado Acquisition Company ULC, an unlimited liability corporation incorporated under the laws of Alberta (“Purchaser”), all common shares of Tornado were transferred to the Purchaser (free and clear of all liens), and Tornado became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Purchaser. TTC purchased all outstanding shares of Tornado for CAD $1.92 per share for a total fully diluted equity value of $279 million (CAD), which was financed with cash on hand, borrowings from TTC’s unsecured senior revolving credit facility, and additional financial arrangements.
The Arrangement Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K that was filed by TTC with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 8, 2025, and is incorporated herein by reference, and the foregoing description of the Arrangement Agreement are intended to provide information regarding the terms of the Arrangement Agreement and are not intended to modify or supplement any factual disclosures about TTC in its reports filed with the SEC. In particular, the Arrangement Agreement and related description are not intended to be, and should not be relied upon as, disclosures regarding any facts and circumstances relating to TTC, Tornado or the Purchaser. The representations and warranties have been negotiated with the principal purpose of not establishing matters of fact, but rather for purposes of allocating risk between each party. As is customary, the assertions embodied in the representations and warranties are qualified by schedules and other disclosures made by each party. The representations and warranties also may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from those generally applicable under the securities laws. Shareholders of TTC are not third-party beneficiaries under the Arrangement Agreement and should not rely on the representations, warranties, and covenants, or any descriptions thereof, as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of TTC, Tornado or the Purchaser.
Section 7—Regulation FD
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On December 8, 2025, TTC announced the completion of the Acquisition described in Item 2.01 above. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
The information contained in this Item 7.01 and Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any filings made by TTC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Section 8 – Other Events
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On December 9, 2025, TTC announced that its Board of Directors authorized a new stock repurchase program of up to an additional 6,000,000 shares of TTC’s common stock in open-market or in privately negotiated transactions.

TTC now has a total share repurchase authorization of 10,391,790 shares of TTC’s common stock as of December 9, 2025.
A copy of the press release announcing the new stock repurchase program is filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
