Brad Jacobs, chairman and chief executive officer of QXO, said, "Our first quarter results reflect the softness we're seeing in the building products industry, and our investments in the business, including people and technology. Operationally, we continue to execute our integration plan across the legacy Beacon business, supported by disciplined investments in technology, sales capacity, and other long-term initiatives. On M&A, we recently closed the $2.25 billion acquisition of Kodiak Building Partners, and announced the landmark $17 billion acquisition of TopBuild. Once we close the TopBuild deal, which is expected in the third quarter, QXO will be the second largest publicly traded building products distributor in North America. We remain firmly on track to achieve $50 billion in annual revenue within a decade."

First Quarter Highlights

Operational Results

Net sales were $1.73 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Adjusted Net Loss, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $57.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. Adjusted Diluted Loss per Common Share, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $(0.12) for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Acquisitions and Financings

In January 2026, we completed a registered common stock offering of 31.6 million shares and raised net proceeds of approximately $749 million. In addition, we received commitments from investors to invest up to $3.0 billion for the issuance of up to 300,000 shares of Series C Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock with a stated value of $10,000 per share (the "Series C Preferred Stock"). The commitments are contingent upon the closing of one or more qualifying acquisitions (as defined in the related investment agreement).

On April 1, 2026, we completed our acquisition of Kodiak Building Partners ("Kodiak") for a total purchase price of $2.25 billion. The purchase price comprised $2.0 billion of cash and 13.2 million shares of the Company's common stock, with the Company retaining the right to repurchase these shares at $40 per share at any time. On April 1, 2026, in connection with the closing of the Kodiak acquisition, we issued 200,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock for $2.0 billion in cash, which was used to fund the Kodiak acquisition.

On April 18, 2026, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire TopBuild Corp. ("TopBuild") for approximately $17.0 billion in a combination of cash and stock consideration. The transaction is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, including, among others, approval by the stockholders of TopBuild and QXO. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2026.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

As required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), we provide reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures contained in this press release to the most directly comparable measure under GAAP, which are set forth in the financial tables attached to this press release.

QXO's non-GAAP financial measures in this press release include: Adjusted Net Loss, Adjusted Diluted Loss per Common Share, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin.

We calculate Adjusted Net Loss as net (loss) income excluding amortization; stock-based compensation; restructuring costs; transaction costs; transformation costs; and the income tax associated with such adjusting items. We calculate Adjusted Diluted Loss per Common Share as Adjusted Net Loss divided by the weighted-averaged number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the effect of dilutive common share equivalents based on the most dilutive result of the if-converted and two-class methods. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net (loss) income excluding depreciation; amortization; stock-based compensation; interest (income) expense, net; provision for (benefit from) income taxes; restructuring costs; transaction costs; and transformation costs that we do not consider representative of our underlying operations. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and evaluating QXO's ongoing performance. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate analysis of our ongoing business operations because they exclude items that may not be reflective of, or are unrelated to, QXO's core operating performance, and may assist investors with comparisons to prior periods and assessing trends in our underlying business. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently, and therefore our measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

risks associated with periodic litigation, regulatory proceedings and enforcement actions, which may adversely affect the Company's business and financial performance;
the impact of legislative, regulatory, economic, competitive and technological changes;
unknown liabilities and uncertainties regarding general economic, business, competitive, legal, regulatory, tax and geopolitical conditions;
the risk that the TopBuild Acquisition may not be completed on the anticipated terms or timeline, or at all, including as a result of the failure to obtain required regulatory or stockholder approvals;
the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance or condition that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement with TopBuild, including in circumstances requiring us to pay a termination fee;
the possibility that the TopBuild Acquisition may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events, significant transaction costs or unknown liabilities;
potential litigation and/or regulatory action relating to the TopBuild Acquisition; and
