GMS Inc. (NYSE: GMS), a leading North American specialty building products distributor, today announced the successful completion of its previously disclosed acquisition of Yvon Building Supply Inc. together with its affiliates, Yvon Insulation Corporation, Yvon Insulation Windsor, Laminated Glass Technologies, Inc., and Right Fit Foam Insulation Ltd. (collectively “Yvon”), a leading distributor of building supplies in the Ontario, Canada market.

“As we highlighted during our recent earnings conference call for the fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2024, we are pleased to enhance our service and product offerings in the Greater Toronto market with the successful completion of this transaction,” said John C. Turner, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of GMS. “We are excited to welcome the Yvon team to GMS Canada and look forward to expanding our Core and Complementary Products in southern Ontario.”

With seven locations across Ontario, Yvon provides high-quality building supplies including drywall, insulation, steel, ceilings and other complementary products and related services throughout Greater Toronto and Ontario. For the twelve months ended May 31, 2024, Yvon generated net revenues of approximately CAD$195 million.

This transaction, which is expected to be slightly margin-accretive to the broader GMS business, was funded with cash on hand and from borrowings on the Company’s revolving credit facility. With more than a quarter of the CAD$196.5 million purchase price scheduled to be paid over the next five years, the transaction value is consistent with GMS’s track record of acquiring at or below the Company’s market multiple.
