QXO is the newest project of serial entrepreneur Brad Jacobs, who has a strong track record of driving outsized returns at prior ventures United Rentals and XPO. The building distribution industry is characterized by high fragmentation and low tech penetration, making it ripe for the Jacobs playbook of utilizing scale and tech leadership to drive value creation. A 60% YTD pullback in shares offers a highly attractive entry point towards our target of a $100bn market cap by 2035, yielding a 20%+ equity IRR.

QXO, Inc. trades below book value and at a market cap less than its recent TopBuild acquisition, despite assembling a leading building products distribution platform. I see market fears over rates and housing as misplaced; higher rates actually enhance QXO's acquisition pipeline and competitive positioning for future roll-ups. Q2 showed 70% YoY revenue growth, a strong cash position, and successful integration progress, though margins compressed due to mix shift and upfront investments.

QXO Inc. has faced early sales declines post-acquisition, but the market may be overly pessimistic given Brad Jacobs' proven playbook. Beacon Roofing's performance under QXO has been underwhelming, with sales declines, but recent quarters show signs of stabilization. Reported margin expansion is largely due to inventory adjustments; true profitability gains from efficiency initiatives have yet to materialize.
