TopBuild posts 2025 results and 2026 outlook
TopBuild Corp. reported mixed fourth quarter and full-year 2025 results driven largely by acquisitions.
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
TopBuild Corp. reported mixed fourth quarter and full-year 2025 results driven largely by acquisitions. Fourth quarter sales reached $1.49 billion, up 13.2% from 2024, as the SPI and Progressive Roofing deals offset weaker residential and light commercial new construction. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $265.2 million with a 17.9% margin, while reported net income fell to $104.5 million, or $3.71 per diluted share.
For 2025, sales edged up to $5.41 billion, but net income declined to $521.7 million and adjusted EBITDA to $1.04 billion, reflecting higher SG&A, interest expense, and integration costs. The company completed seven acquisitions adding about $1.20 billion in annual revenue and repurchased 1.37 million shares for $434.2 million, funded alongside a step-up in long-term debt to $2.78 billion.
Looking to 2026, TopBuild guides to sales of $5.925–$6.225 billion and adjusted EBITDA of $1.005–$1.155 billion. Management assumes a mid–single digit residential sales decline, low–single digit commercial and industrial growth, and $800–$850 million in M&A-driven sales contribution, with acquisitions remaining the top capital priority.

Insights
Acquisitions drive TopBuild’s growth while margins and leverage move the other way.
TopBuild is leaning heavily on deals to grow. 2025 sales rose to $5.41 billion, but organic volume declined and adjusted EBITDA slipped to $1.04 billion. Seven acquisitions adding roughly $1.20 billion in annual revenue, including SPI and Progressive Roofing, now shape the revenue mix.
Profitability softened, with full-year adjusted EBITDA margin at 19.2% versus 20.2%, and net income down to $521.7 million as SG&A, interest expense and integration costs increased. Long-term debt climbed to $2.78 billion, raising balance sheet leverage even as cash declined to $184.7 million.
For 2026, management targets sales of $5.93–$6.23 billion and adjusted EBITDA of $1.01–$1.16 billion, assuming residential softness but commercial and industrial growth plus $800–$850 million of M&A contribution. Future filings will clarify how quickly integration, margins, and leverage trends evolve relative to this outlook.
