QXO scales up with $17 billion TopBuild acquisition
  • QXO completed the TopBuild acquisition on July 1, making it North America's largest distributor and installer of insulation and the second-largest distributor of roofing products.
  • Management expects at least $300 million in annual synergies from the TopBuild deal by 2030, supported by pricing, procurement, and cross-selling opportunities.
  • Q2 revenue rose to $3.25 billion from $1.91 billion, while adjusted EBITDA increased 33% year over year to $272 million; acquisition timing affects the comparison.
  • Adjusted diluted EPS fell to $0.08 from $0.11 as the diluted share count increased and preferred-stock dividends reduced income attributable to common shareholders.
  • QXO used $146 million in operating cash during H1 2026, leaving execution, integration spending, and financing discipline as key investor concerns.
