About QXO, Inc.
About QXO, Inc.
QXO Building Products, which QXO Inc. acquired on April 29, 2025, operates approximately 600 branches across all 50 U.S. states and seven Canadian provinces, employing 7,794 people as of December 31, 2025. No single customer accounted for more than 1% of 2025 net sales, reflecting a broad base of over 110,000 residential and non-residential contractor and builder customers. The company offers a private-label product line under the TRI-BUILT brand across both residential and non-residential construction and repair markets.
QXO Building Products earns margins from distributing roofing materials, waterproofing products, siding, plywood and OSB, and windows and doors, supplemented by vendor volume rebates and value-added services including trade credit and last-mile delivery. Three unnamed suppliers each contributed 10% or more of total purchases in 2025, together representing nearly 35% of total purchases; the named supplier base includes Owens Corning, GAF, Carlisle Construction Materials, and IKO Manufacturing, among others. About 80% of the roofing distribution industry's revenue derives from repair and re-roofing activity, of which roughly 94% is non-discretionary — driven by leaks, age, weather damage, and deterioration — insulating that demand base from discretionary spending cycles. QXO has stated a target of $50 billion in annual revenues within the next decade, with Kodiak Building Partners under a signed definitive acquisition agreement for $2.25 billion (announced February 2026) as the next planned step.
Show full overview
QXO's longer-term demand thesis rests on structural housing stock aging: the 10-K notes the average U.S. single-family home is over 40 years old and the average non-residential structure exceeds 50 years, sustaining the non-discretionary repair pipeline regardless of new construction cycles. In January 2026 the company raised $749.4 million in net proceeds from a public equity offering and secured a $3.0 billion preferred stock commitment from Apollo Global Management-affiliated funds for qualifying acquisitions — capital that supports the stated consolidation strategy in a fragmented $800 billion building products distribution industry.
