Proposal Significantly Undervalues the Company and is Not in the Best Interests of Beacon and its Shareholders
On Multiple Occasions Beacon Sought Substantive Engagement with QXO to Demonstrate Path to Value; QXO Refused
Beacon to Hold Investor Day on March 13, 2025, Where Company Will Provide 2028 Long-Term Financial Targets
Shareholders Do Not Need to Take Action At This Time
Beacon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BECN#NASDAQ">BECN</a>) (the "Company") today confirmed that it has previously received and rejected an unsolicited, non-binding proposal from QXO, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QXO#NASDAQ">QXO</a>) to acquire all outstanding shares of the Company for $124.25 per share in cash.
QXO's proposal, publicized today, was received on November 11, 2024. Consistent with its fiduciary duties, and in consultation with its independent financial and legal advisors, Beacon's Board of Directors (the "Board") thoroughly evaluated the proposal. Following its review, the Board unanimously rejected the proposal and determined that it significantly undervalues the Company and its prospects for growth and future value creation. The Board therefore determined that QXO's proposal was not in the best interests of Beacon and its shareholders.
Contrary to QXO's assertions, Beacon offered on multiple occasions to engage, including to discuss price, subject only to a standard non-disclosure agreement (NDA). Additionally, Beacon:
<ul>
<li>Held repeated discussions between members of the Beacon executive team and QXO, as well as with the respective advisors of the parties.</li>
<li>Offered a standard NDA to share confidential management projections and other relevant company information to further develop QXO's valuation of Beacon. QXO refused to engage on multiple occasions, stating that it was not interested in any confidential information.</li>
<li>Offered to limit the duration of the customary confidentiality obligations as part of the NDA only through Beacon's planned Investor Day on March 13, at which point 2028 long-term targets will be presented.</li>
<li>Structured the NDA to preserve QXO's ability to run a proxy contest at the upcoming 2025 annual meeting of shareholders.</li>
</ul>

<h3>Evaluating Beacon Roofing Supply P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Beacon Roofing Supply has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 93.58 of the Trading Companies &amp; Distributors industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1735837209_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.
