They expect to be the second largest publicly traded building products distributor in North America.
So truly a melding of mergers and again, the old slash new economy.
Brad, welcome back to All Thoughts.
Thanks so much for coming on.
Oh, my pleasure.
Great to be here.
Congrats on the deal.
The first question I have to ask is, is it even accurate to call this an acquisition right now?
Because if you're paying $17 billion for top build, looking at QXO's market cap, you guys are at like $17 billion as well.
This looks like a merger.
This is so big.
This basically looks like a merger.
Yeah, a merger.
I'll go with merger.
Merger's fine.
We're putting together two great companies and forming an even greater one.
You know what's funny?
I hadn't heard of Top Build up until, you know, this morning or sorry, yesterday when the news came out that you're going to buy it.
You know what I was thinking about?
Like America's incredible.
