QXO, TopBuild Shareholders Approve $17B Deal

QXO’s acquisition of TopBuild cleared a major hurdle with shareholder approval from both companies. The transaction is expected to close July 1, positioning QXO as one of North America’s largest publicly traded building products distributors.

QXO’s $17 billion acquisition of TopBuild is set to close this week after shareholders of both companies overwhelmingly approved the deal.

Greenwich, CT-based QXO and Daytona Beach, FL-based TopBuild announced June 29 that shareholders approved all proposals required for QXO to complete its acquisition of TopBuild during each company’s special meeting held that day.

QXO said approximately 99% of votes cast at its special meeting were in favor of approving the issuance of QXO common stock connected to the transaction. At TopBuild’s special meeting, approximately 78% of votes cast were in favor of adopting the merger agreement, representing about 65% of all outstanding TopBuild shares.

The transaction is expected to close on or about July 1, provided customary closing conditions are satisfied.

On MDM’s 2026 Top Distributors List for Building Materials/Construction, QXO was No. 4 and TopBuild was No. 14. Upon completion, QXO has said the addition of TopBuild will make it the second-largest publicly traded building products distributor in North America, with more than $18 billion in combined revenue and over $2 billion in adjusted EBITDA.

QXO announced April 19 that it had reached an agreement to acquire TopBuild in a cash-and-stock transaction valued at approximately $17 billion. The deal is one of the largest ever in building materials distribution and follows QXO’s acquisition of Beacon in 2025 and its April 2026 closing of the $2.25 billion acquisition of Kodiak Building Partners.

TopBuild is North America’s largest distributor and installer of insulation and related building products. The company provides installation and distribution services across residential, commercial and industrial end markets, including insulation used in walls, attics, floors and roofing assemblies; complementary products such as gutters, fireproofing and mechanical insulation; and specialized roofing systems for large-scale buildings such as airports, stadiums and warehouses.

TopBuild operates more than 450 locations across the U.S. and Canada.

QXO describes itself as the largest publicly traded distributor of roofing, waterproofing and related products and the second-largest publicly traded distributor of lumber and building materials in North America. The company has stated a goal of reaching $50 billion in annual revenue within the next decade through acquisitions and organic growth.
