Acquisitions

Year-to-date, through May 8, 2018, the Company has completed three acquisitions which are listed below. Combined, they are expected to generate approximately $409 million of incremental revenue on an annual basis.		“Since closing on our first acquisition in August 2016, we’ve been consistent with regard to our strategy and the types of acquisitions we are seeking. We look for profitable, well-managed companies with solid customer bases that expand our market share and revenue quality in high growth regions and are accretive to earnings.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA, incremental EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA margin, the “adjusted” financial measures presented above, and figures presented on a “same branch basis” are not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, which are used in managing the business, may provide users of this financial information with additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior periods. We define same branch sales as sales from branches in operation for at least 12 full calendar months. Such non-GAAP financial measures are reconciled to their closest GAAP financial measures in tables contained in this press release. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results under GAAP. Additional information may be found in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission which are available on TopBuild’s website under “Investors” at www.topbuild.com.
