Beacon (NASDAQ: BECN) rejected QXO, Inc.'s unsolicited proposal to acquire all shares at $124.25 per share, valuing Beacon at approximately $8.3 billion. The Board deemed the offer significantly undervalued the company, citing over 200% shareholder returns in the past five years. Despite attempts to engage QXO with a non-disclosure agreement, QXO refused. Beacon plans an Investor Day on March 13, 2025, to present 2028 targets. J.P. Morgan advises Beacon, with Sidley Austin LLP and Simpson Thacher as legal advisors.
QXO Inc. has launched an $11 billion tender offer to acquire Beacon Roofing Supply for $124.25 per share in cash. This move aims to secure a significant foothold in the roofing supply industry.

The outcome depends on shareholder decisions as QXO seeks to reshape the market landscape.
