What Happened
QXO Insulation, LLC (QXO) announced that it completed its previously announced acquisition of TopBuild on July 1, 2026. The transaction closed via a two-step merger (Titanium Merger and Forward Merger), after which TopBuild became a wholly owned subsidiary and its name was changed to QXO Insulation, LLC. TopBuild stockholders elected between $505.00 cash or 20.200 QXO shares per TopBuild share; approximately 91.0% elected cash and, after proration, the final per-share merger consideration was approximately $249.67 in cash plus 10.212 QXO shares (subject to final exchange-agent calculation). Outstanding TopBuild equity awards were converted into or replaced by corresponding QXO awards (with PSUs deemed satisfied at target).

Key Details

• Closing date: July 1, 2026.
• New unsecured notes: Issuer (QXO Building Products, Inc.) issued $1.5 billion 6.500% senior notes due 2031 and $1.5 billion 6.875% senior notes due 2034.
• Secured notes and term loans: Issuer issued $2.25 billion 6.75% senior secured notes due 2032 (secured by first-priority liens on Notes Priority Collateral and second-priority liens on ABL Priority Collateral). An incremental term loan of $3.0 billion was added to the existing $2.25 billion term loan facility (total term loan facilities now include both amounts). All term-loan and secured-note obligations are guaranteed by TopBuild and certain subsidiaries.
• ABL facility: Asset-based revolving credit facility with borrowing availability up to the lesser of $2,000 million and the applicable borrowing base; guarantees and security interests were extended to TopBuild and certain subsidiaries.
• Debt retirements: In connection with the closing, TopBuild’s prior credit agreement was repaid in full and terminated. Titanium Merger Sub purchased and cancelled the vast majority of TopBuild’s 2032 and 2034 notes via tender offers (≈99.54% and ≈99.75% purchased), and TopBuild’s remaining outstanding notes (including 2029, remaining 2032 and remaining 2034 notes) were redeemed and cancelled on July 1, 2026.

Why It Matters
This filing documents the legal close of the acquisition and the new combined company’s capital structure. Investors should note the large new financings (secured notes, unsecured notes, incremental $3.0B term loan and an ABL with up to $2.0B availability) and the replacement/repayment of TopBuild’s prior debt. These changes materially affect QXO’s indebtedness, security interests over assets, and the treatment of former TopBuild equity awards and shareholders (many received cash plus QXO shares).
