Perma-Pipe International Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: PPIH) announced today that it has completed a sale and leaseback transaction with Nash88, LLC, generating $8.7 million in net proceeds.

At closing $0.4 million was placed in a short term escrow account to cover certain post-closing contingencies that may arise.
