1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
TopBuild is a Delaware corporation and trades on the NYSE under the symbol “BLD.” We report our business in
We believe the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, necessary to state fairly our financial position as of March 31, 2026, our results of operations and comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, and our cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2025 was derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.
These condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual report for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on February 26, 2026.
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Financial Statement Presentation. Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been developed in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. All intercompany transactions between TopBuild entities have been eliminated.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)”. This standard requires disclosure, in the notes to financial statements, of specified information about certain costs and expenses. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. This standard may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. We do not anticipate that this standard will affect our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows and we are assessing the impact of its adoption in our disclosures to our consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software”. This standard removes all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages and requires an entity to start capitalizing software costs when both of the following occur when (1) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and (2) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. This standard may be applied using a prospective, modified or retrospective transition approach. We do not anticipate that this standard will affect our results of operations, financial position or cash flows to our consolidated financial statements.

The following table outlines the key terms of Amendment No. 5 to the Credit Agreement (dollars in thousands):
Senior secured term loan facility | $ | | |
Delayed draw term loan | $ | | |

| (a) | Use of the sublimits for the issuance of letters of credit and swingline loans reduces the availability under the revolving facility. |
Interest expense on borrowings under Amendment No. 5 to the Credit Agreement is based on an applicable margin rate plus, at our option, either:
| ● | A base rate determined by reference to the highest of either (i) the federal funds rate plus |
12
| ● | A SOFR rate determined by reference to the costs of funds for deposits in U.S. dollars for the interest period relevant to such borrowings, subject to a floor of |
The applicable margin rate is determined based on our Secured Leverage Ratio. In the case of base rate borrowings, the applicable margin rate ranges from
Revolving Facility
The Company has outstanding standby letters of credit that secure our financial obligations related to our workers’ compensation, general insurance, and auto liability programs. These standby letters of credit, as well as any outstanding amount borrowed under our revolving facility, reduce the availability under the revolving facility.

The Credit Agreement contains certain covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of the Company to incur additional indebtedness or liens; to make certain investments or loans; to make certain restricted payments; to enter into consolidations, mergers, sales of material assets, and other fundamental changes; to transact with affiliates; to enter into agreements restricting the ability of subsidiaries to incur liens or pay dividends; or to make certain accounting changes. The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants and events of default.

6. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, net, and accounts payable are considered to be representative of their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
Fair value measurements were applied to our long-term debt portfolio. We believe the carrying value of our Term Loan approximates the fair market value primarily due to the fact that the non-performance risk of servicing our debt obligations, as reflected in our business and credit risk profile, has not materially changed since we assumed our debt obligations under the Credit Agreement. In addition, due to the floating-rate nature of our Term Loan, the market value is not subject to variability solely due to changes in the general level of interest rates as is the case with a fixed-rate debt obligation.
Based on market trades of our

7. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Our business consists of
Our Installation Services segment installs insulation, commercial roofing and other building products. It sells primarily to the residential new construction market, with increasing activity in the commercial/industrial construction market, along with repair/remodel of residential housing. In addition, it provides commercial roofing installation services that includes re-roofing, recurring maintenance services, and new construction. Installation Services also installs other building products including glass and windows, rain gutters, garage doors, closet shelving, and fireplaces, among other items.
Our Specialty Distribution segment distributes building and mechanical insulation, insulation accessories and other building product materials for the residential and commercial/industrial end markets. In addition to insulation and accessories, it distributes rain gutters, closet shelving, and roofing materials, among other items. Distributed products are sold from distribution centers in various parts of the United States and Canada, primarily to contractors and dealers (including lumber yards) serving a wide variety of commercial/industrial markets.
Intercompany sales from the Specialty Distribution segment to the Installation Services segment are recorded by the Specialty Distribution segment with a profit margin and by our Installation Services segment at cost. This intercompany profit is eliminated in consolidation.
Our CODM is our Chief Executive Officer. Our CODM measures performance for our reportable segments based on segment net sales and operating profit. Our CODM uses these measures to evaluate resource allocation and other strategic initiatives (e.g., making acquisitions and internal investments). Segment performance measures are compared to budgeted and forecasted amounts periodically to assist in evaluating performance versus expectations and to inform future allocation and strategic decisions.

9. NET INCOME PER SHARE
Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted net income per share is calculated by adjusting weighted average shares outstanding for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents outstanding for the period, determined using the treasury stock method.
Basic and diluted net income per share were computed as follows:

13. OTHER COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation. We are subject to certain claims, charges, litigation, and other proceedings in the ordinary course of our business, including those arising from or related to contractual matters, intellectual property, personal injury, environmental matters, product liability, product recalls, construction defects, insurance coverage, personnel and employment disputes, antitrust, and other matters, including class actions. We believe we have adequate defenses in these matters, and we do not believe that the ultimate outcome of these matters will have a material adverse effect on us. However, there is no assurance that we will prevail in any of these pending matters, and we could in the future incur judgments, enter into settlements of claims, or revise our expectations regarding the outcome of these matters, which could materially impact our liquidity and our results of operations.
Other Matters. We enter into contracts, which include customary indemnities that are standard for the industries in which we operate. Such indemnities include, among other things, claims against our builder customers for issues relating to our workmanship. We generally exclude from our contracts with builder customers indemnity relating to product quality and warranty claims, as we pass such claims directly to the manufacturers of the products we install or distribute. In conjunction with divestitures and other transactions, we occasionally provide customary indemnities relating to various items including, among others, the enforceability of trademarks, legal and environmental issues, and asset valuations. We evaluate the probability that we may incur liabilities under these customary indemnities and appropriately record an estimated liability when deemed probable.
We also maintain indemnification agreements with our directors and officers that may require us to indemnify them against liabilities that arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers, except as prohibited by applicable law.

The QXO Transaction has been unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both companies and is subject to customary closing conditions, including, among other things, (i) approval by of TopBuild’s and QXO’s stockholders, and (ii) the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period (and any extensions thereof) under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and other specified regulatory clearances.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
TopBuild, headquartered in Daytona Beach, Florida, is a leading installer of insulation and commercial roofing and a specialty distributor of insulation and related building products to the construction industry in the United States and Canada.
We operate in two segments: Installation Services and Specialty Distribution. Our Installation Services segment installs insulation, roofing materials and other building products nationwide. As of March 31, 2026, we had more than 200 Installation Services branches located across the United States. We install various insulation applications, including fiberglass batts and rolls, blown-in loose fill fiberglass, polyurethane spray foam, and blown-in loose fill cellulose. Additionally, we install other building products including glass and windows, rain gutters, garage doors, closet shelving, and fireplaces, among other items. We handle every stage of the installation process, including material procurement supplied by leading manufacturers, project scheduling and logistics, multi-phase professional installation, and installation quality assurance.
Our acquisition of Progressive on July 14, 2025 enables us to expand our building envelope offering to general contractor customers and provide a broad suite of solutions. We construct and repair commercial roofs using various construction application types including built-up roofing, single ply, tile, metal, shingle and others. We provide the full lifecycle of comprehensive roofing services spanning non-discretionary re-roofing, recurring maintenance services and new construction to a diverse set of commercial customers including education, technology, industrial, government and healthcare.
Our Specialty Distribution segment distributes a comprehensive portfolio of building envelope, specialty products and mechanical and fabricated insulation for the residential and commercial/industrial end markets. We also offer insulation accessories, rain gutters, and other related building products. As of March 31, 2026, we had more than 250 distribution centers across the United States and Canada. Our Specialty Distribution customer base consists of thousands of general contractors of all sizes serving a wide variety of residential and commercial/industrial industries, gutter contractors, weatherization contractors, other contractors, dealers, metal building erectors, and modular home builders.
We believe that having both Installation Services and Specialty Distribution provides us with a number of distinct competitive advantages. First, the combined buying power of our two business segments, along with our scale, strengthens our ties to the major manufacturers of insulation, commercial roofing and other building products. This enables us to buy competitively and ensures the availability of supply to our local branches and distribution centers. The overall effect drives efficiencies throughout our supply chain. Second, being a leader in both installation services and specialty distribution allows us to reach a broader set of builders and contractors more effectively, regardless of their size or geographic location in the U.S. and Canada, and leverage residential, commercial, and industrial construction growth regardless of location. Third, during housing industry downturns, many insulation contractors who buy directly from manufacturers during industry peaks return to purchasing through specialty distributors. This helps to reduce our exposure to cyclical swings in our business. We’ve also increased our exposure to non-cyclical revenue through maintenance and other recurring installation services through acquisitions.
For additional details pertaining to our operating results by segment, see Note 7 – Segment Information to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report. For additional details regarding our strategy, material trends in our business and seasonality, please refer to Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on February 26, 2026.

Recent Developments
To date, tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA") and other trade authorities have had a minimal impact on our business because we purchase a limited number of products directly or indirectly from jurisdictions exposed to those tariffs. On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump that IEEPA does not authorize the President to impose tariffs, and all IEEPA-based tariffs were terminated effective February 24, 2026. Given the minimal impact of tariffs on our business, we do not expect the Court's ruling, or the termination of IEEPA tariffs, to have a material impact on our supply chain costs or our results of operations. In addition, we do not believe we have any material obligation to reimburse customers or other counterparties in connection with tariff-related charges previously collected or passed through. While tariffs remain in effect under other legal authorities, including Sections 232 and 301 of applicable trade statutes, and the President has imposed a temporary 10% global tariff under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, we do not currently anticipate that these measures will have a material impact on our business. We continue to monitor developments in U.S. trade policy, including potential new tariff actions and related litigation, and will update our disclosures as circumstances warrant.

Sales and Operations
Net sales increased by 17.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from the comparable period of 2025. The increase was primarily driven by a 24.3% increase in sales from acquisitions, partially offset by a 5.5% decline in volume and a 1.6% impact from lower selling prices.
Gross profit margins were 27.7% and 28.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decline in gross profit margin is primarily due to lower sales volume and lower customer pricing.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales were 15.6% and 14.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase in the percentage of sales during the three months ended March 31, 2026 is due to incremental selling, general, and administrative expenses from acquisitions, including intangible amortization.
Operating profit margins were 12.1% and 14.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Operating profit margins during the three months ended March 31, 2026 as a percentage of sales decreased due to lower sales volume and lower customer pricing, as well as incremental selling, general and administrative expenses from acquisitions, including intangible amortization.

Installation Services
Sales
Sales in our Installation Services segment increased $31.8 million, or 4.3%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the same period in 2025. Sales increased 16.9% from acquisitions, partially offset by a 9.8% decline in sales volume and a 2.9% impact from lower selling prices.
Operating profit margins
Operating profit margins in our Installation Services segment were 15.3% and 17.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decline in operating profit margin is primarily due to lower sales volume and lower customer pricing, as well as incremental selling, general and administrative expenses from acquisitions, including intangible amortization.
Specialty Distribution
Sales
Sales in our Specialty Distribution segment increased $177.3 million, or 31.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the same period in 2025. Sales increased 31.1% from acquisitions, 0.3% from higher selling prices and a 0.3% increase in sales volume.
Operating profit margins
Operating profit margins in our Specialty Distribution segment were 10.9% and 12.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decline in operating profit margin is primarily due to incremental selling, general and administrative expenses from acquisitions, including intangible amortization.
25
OTHER ITEMS
Other expense, net
Other expense, net, increased to $35.3 million from $11.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by $20.0 million higher interest expense from Amendment No. 5 and issuance of our 5.625% Senior Notes, along with $2.9 million lower interest income due to lower average levels of invested cash balances during the first quarter of 2026.
Income tax expense
Income tax expense was $34.9 million, an effective tax rate of 25.0 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $42.6 million, an effective tax rate of 25.7 percent, for the comparable period in 2025. The tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was lower primarily related to an increase in tax benefit related to share-based compensation.

Net cash flows provided by operating activities increased $8.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the prior year period. The increase compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025 was primarily driven by favorable changes in working capital accounts, specifically accounts payable, which was partially offset by $18.6 million lower net income mainly due to higher intangible amortization.
Net cash used in investing activities was $41.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, primarily composed of $27.9 million for our acquisitions and $14.0 million for purchases of property and equipment, mainly vehicles and equipment. Net cash used in investing activities was $12.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily composed of $13.4 million for purchases of property and equipment, mainly vehicles.
Net cash used in financing activities was $34.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we incurred $16.9 million net cash outflow related to exercise of share-based incentive awards and stock options, used $15.6 million for debt repayments and repaid $1.9 million in principal on finance lease obligations. Additionally, we borrowed and repaid $65.0 million on our revolving facility, all within the first quarter of 2026. Net cash used in financing activities was $231.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we used $215.6 million to repurchase shares of our common stock under the 2024 and 2025 Repurchase Programs, $11.3 million for debt repayments and incurred $4.5 million cash outflow related to exercise of share-based incentive awards.
We have access to liquidity through our cash from operations and available borrowing capacity under Amendment No. 5, which provides for borrowing and/or standby letter of credit issuances of up to $1.0 billion under the revolving facility. Additional information regarding our outstanding debt and borrowing capacity is incorporated by reference from Note 5 – Long-term Debt to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

We believe that our cash flows from operations, combined with our current cash levels and available borrowing capacity, will be adequate to support our ongoing operations and known contractual obligations including funding our debt service requirements, capital expenditures, lease obligations and working capital needs for at least the next twelve months. We also have adequate liquidity to maintain off-balance sheet arrangements for short-term leases, letters of credit, and performance and license bonds.
OUTLOOK
Residential New Construction
Demand for single- and multi-family homes continues to be uneven across the country and challenged by elevated price levels and borrowing costs, which continue to affect consumer purchasing power and spending behavior. Although the residential end-markets are facing near-term uncertainty around tariffs, inflation, interest rates, and consumer confidence, we remain optimistic about the longer-term fundamentals due to underbuilding in the United States in prior years.
Commercial and Industrial Construction
Our heavy commercial and industrial backlog is strong, our bidding activity is active, and our acquisitions of Progressive and SPI last year all continue to support our positive view of commercial/industrial sales for our Installation Services and Specialty Distribution segments. In addition, recurring maintenance, service and repair work on industrial sites serves as a continued demand driver for our business.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We had no material off-balance sheet arrangements during the three months ended March 31, 2026, other than short-term leases, letters of credit, and performance and license bonds, which have been disclosed in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly report.
We use performance bonds to ensure completion of our work on certain larger customer contracts that can span multiple accounting periods. Performance bonds generally do not have stated expiration dates; rather, we are released from the bonds as the contractual performance is completed. We also have bonds outstanding for license and insurance.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations from those previously disclosed in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on February 26, 2026.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Our critical accounting policies have not changed from those previously reported in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on February 26, 2026.
APPLICATION OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Information regarding the application of new accounting standards is incorporated by reference from Note 2 – Accounting Policies to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements contained in this report that reflect our views about future periods, including our future plans and performance, constitute “forward-looking statements” under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “believe,” “designed,” “plan,” “may,” “project,” “estimate” or “intend,” the negative of these terms, and similar references to future periods. These views involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and, accordingly, our actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in our forward-looking statements. We caution you against unduly relying on any of these forward-looking statements. Our future performance may be affected by the duration and impact of negative macro-economic impacts on the United States economy, specifically with respect to residential, commercial/industrial construction, our ability to collect our receivables from our customers, our reliance on residential new construction, residential repair/remodel, and commercial/industrial construction; our reliance on third-party suppliers and manufacturers; our ability to attract, develop, and retain talented personnel and our sales and labor force; our ability to maintain consistent practices across our locations; our ability to maintain our competitive position; and our ability to find attractive acquisition targets, successfully complete acquisitions and realize the expected benefits of our acquisitions. We discuss the material risks we face under the caption entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on February 26, 2026, as well as under the caption entitled “Risk Factors” in subsequent reports that we file with the SEC. Our forward-looking statements in this filing speak only as of the date of this filing. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. Unless required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
We have a Term Loan outstanding with a principal balance of $1.2 billion and a revolving facility with an aggregate borrowing capacity of $1.0 billion. We also have outstanding 3.625% Senior Notes with an aggregate principal balance of $400.0 million, 4.125% Senior Notes with an aggregate principal balance of $500.0 million, and 5.625% Senior Notes with an aggregate principal balance of $750.0 million. The 3.625% Senior Notes, 4.125% Senior Notes, and 5.625% Senior Notes bear a fixed rate of interest and therefore are excluded from the calculation below as they are not subject to fluctuations in interest rates.
Interest payable on both the aggregate Term Loan and revolving facility is based on a variable interest rate. As a result, we are exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on this outstanding indebtedness. As of March 31, 2026, the applicable interest rate as of such date was 4.92%. Based on our outstanding borrowings as of March 31, 2026, a 100-basis point increase in the interest rate would result in an $11.8 million increase in our annualized interest expense. There was no outstanding balance under the revolving facility as of March 31, 2026.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2026.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) in the most recent fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The information set forth under the caption “Litigation” in Note 13 – Other Commitments and Contingencies to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report, is incorporated by reference herein.
Item 1A. RISK FACTORS
We believe there are no changes that constitute material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on February 26, 2026, other than as set forth below.
Risks Related to the Proposed QXO Transaction
The QXO Transaction may not be completed within the expected timeframe, or at all, and the failure to complete the QXO Transaction could impact our stock price and our future business and financial results.
There can be no assurance that the QXO Transaction will be completed in the expected timeframe, or at all. The Merger Agreement contains a number of conditions that must be satisfied or waived prior to the completion of the QXO Transaction, including the stockholder approvals. There can be no assurance that all closing conditions will be satisfied (or waived, if applicable). Many of the conditions to completion of the QXO Transaction are not within our control, and we cannot predict when or if these conditions will be satisfied (or waived, as applicable). In addition, either TopBuild or QXO may terminate the Merger Agreement if, subject to certain limitations, the QXO Transaction has not been consummated by January 17, 2027.
If the QXO Transaction is not completed, our ongoing business and financial results may be adversely affected and we will be subject to a number of risks, including the following:
| ● | we have dedicated significant time and resources, financial and otherwise, in planning for the QXO Transaction and the associated integration, of which we would lose the benefit if the QXO Transaction is not completed; |
| ● | we are responsible for certain transaction costs relating to the QXO Transaction, whether or not the QXO Transaction is completed; |
| ● | while the Merger Agreement is in force, we are subject to certain restrictions on the conduct of our business, including taking any action that would reasonably be expected to have a material negative impact on or material delay to the satisfaction of the conditions in the Merger Agreement required to consummate the QXO Transaction, which restrictions may adversely affect our ability to execute certain of our business strategies; and |
29
| ● | matters relating to the QXO Transaction (including integration planning) may require substantial commitments of time and resources by our management, whether or not the QXO Transaction is completed, which could otherwise have been devoted to other opportunities that may have been beneficial to us. |
In addition, if the QXO Transaction is not completed, we may experience negative reactions from the financial markets and from our customers and employees. We also may be subject to litigation related to any failure to complete the QXO Transaction or to enforcement proceedings commenced against us to perform our obligations under the Merger Agreement. If the QXO Transaction is not completed, some or all of these risks may materialize and may adversely affect our business, financial results and financial condition, as well as the price of our common stock.
The Merger Agreement restricts our ability to pursue alternative transactions and may require us to pay a termination fee under certain circumstances.
The Merger Agreement contains customary non-solicitation provisions that limit our ability to solicit or engage in discussions regarding alternative acquisition proposals, subject to certain fiduciary exceptions. If the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain specified circumstances, including in connection with a competing acquisition proposal, we may be required to pay a termination fee of $600 million in cash to QXO. These provisions could discourage other potential strategic transactions that may be favorable to us and our stockholders.
Securities class action and derivative lawsuits may be brought against us in connection with the QXO Transaction, which could result in substantial costs.
Securities class action lawsuits and derivative lawsuits are often brought against public companies that have entered into acquisition, merger, or other business combination agreements. Even if such a lawsuit is without merit, defending against these claims can result in substantial costs and divert management time and resources. An adverse judgment could result in monetary damages, or disrupt, delay, or terminate the QXO Transaction, which could have a negative impact on our liquidity and financial condition.
The market value of the QXO common stock that TopBuild stockholders will receive in the QXO Transaction may fluctuate materially and may be less than expected.
Because the value of the consideration in the QXO Transaction depends in part on the market price of QXO common stock, which may be volatile and subject to market and other factors outside of our control, there can be no assurance regarding the value that TopBuild stockholders will ultimately receive. The market price of QXO common stock may be affected by factors relating to QXO, the QXO Transaction, the anticipated benefits of the QXO Transaction, the combined company’s future prospects and results of operations, general market and economic conditions, and other factors. As a result, the value of the stock consideration may increase or decrease prior to or following completion of the QXO Transaction.
Uncertainty about the QXO Transaction may adversely affect our relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and other business partners, and may divert management’s attention.
Uncertainty about the timing and completion of the QXO Transaction may disrupt our business and could affect our relationships with customers, suppliers, and other business partners, including as a result of concerns about the combined company’s future strategy, operations, and financial condition. In addition, the pendency of the QXO Transaction may make it more difficult to attract, motivate, and retain key personnel, and could distract management and employees from day-to-day operations as they devote time and attention to matters relating to the QXO Transaction, including integration planning. Any of these factors could adversely affect our business, financial results and financial condition, whether or not the QXO Transaction is completed.
30
The combined company may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the QXO Transaction, and TopBuild stockholders may not realize the expected value of the QXO Transaction.
The QXO Transaction is expected to result in benefits to the combined company, including those associated with the combined company’s scale, enhanced capabilities, and other strategic and financial objectives. However, achieving the anticipated benefits will depend on a number of factors, including the combined company’s ability to successfully integrate TopBuild’s business with QXO’s business, retain key personnel, realize anticipated operational and financial synergies and growth opportunities, and execute the combined company’s business plan. These benefits may not be achieved within the expected timeframe, or at all, and the combined company may incur additional or unexpected costs in connection with the QXO Transaction. If the combined company is unable to achieve some or all of the anticipated benefits of the QXO Transaction, the market price of QXO common stock could decline, and TopBuild stockholders could receive less value from the QXO Transaction than expected.
Item 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

There were no share repurchases executed during the three months ended March 31, 2026, leaving $753.9 million remaining under the 2025 Share Repurchase Program. Excluded from this disclosure are shares repurchased to settle statutory employee tax withholdings related to the vesting of stock awards.
