Holley Performance Products Inc. is the principal operating subsidiary of Holley Inc. (NYSE: HLLY), a publicly traded Delaware corporation. The business was founded in 1903 and is headquartered in Bowling Green, Kentucky, with executive offices also listed at 1A Burton Hills Blvd. in Nashville, Tennessee. Holley went public in July 2021 through a merger with Empower Ltd., a SPAC sponsored by MidOcean Partners, in a deal valuing it at roughly $1.55 billion; Sentinel Capital Partners was the largest pre- and post-merger shareholder. Public filings and market data put headcount around 1,400–1,600 and FY2025 revenue at approximately $613 million.
Products / operations. Holley is an operating automotive-aftermarket manufacturer — not an NPE. It designs, manufactures, and distributes performance products for car and truck enthusiasts, chiefly fuel systems: carburetors, electronic fuel injection (Holley EFI, Sniper), fuel pumps, intake manifolds, superchargers, and nitrous oxide systems. It also sells ignition (MSD, Accel), exhaust (Flowmaster, Hooker, Flowtech), tuning/electronics (DiabloSport, Edge, Superchips, APR), driveline and shifter products (B&M, Hurst), plumbing (Earl's), and safety gear (Simpson). Its brand portfolio was assembled largely through acquisition.
Litigation posture. Holley appears in the tracked data solely as a plaintiff (1 case, 0 as defendant), consistent with an operating company enforcing its own patents rather than a patent assertion entity. The single tracked matter was filed March 6, 2026 in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee — its regional home forum, not a plaintiff-friendly NPE venue like the Eastern District of Texas.
Notable case. Holley Performance Products Inc. v. Aces Fuel Injection, Inc. (No. 1:26-cv-00059, E.D. Tenn.) accuses Aces of infringing patents covering throttle-body EFI design, including the Aces Killshot Fusion EFI system; the docket also reflects a copyright claim. Outside litigation, Holley settled a post-SPAC investor securities suit for $12.8 million in 2026 and divested its Arizona Desert Shocks business in April 2026.
