The Alger Concentrated Equity ETF outperformed the Russell 1000 Growth Index during the second quarter of 2026.

GREENWICH, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--QXO, Inc. (“QXO” or the “Company”) (NYSE: QXO) today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2026. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, basic and diluted loss per common share was $(0.14). Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Common Share, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $0.08. Note: The following summary of financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 include the legacy Kodiak Building Partners, Inc. (“Kodiak”) operational r.

The building materials distribution giant closed on its largest-ever acquisition. The acquiree's shareholders overwhelmingly opted for cash in lieu of QXO shares, perhaps signaling a lack of confidence.

QXO INC (QXO) doesn't possess the right combination of the two key ingredients for a likely earnings beat in its upcoming report. Get prepared with the key expectations.

QXO has rapidly consolidated the building materials distribution sector, acquiring Beacon Roofing, Kodiak Partners, and TopBuild within 15 months. Despite a sharp share price decline, QXO secured $3 billion in preferred equity from Apollo and Temasek, ensuring robust institutional backing. QXO now leads all comers in roofing, insulation, and MRO, with 1,150 locations and rapidly increasing revenue.

I anchor my long-term retirement strategy on QXO, REXR, and CME, blending growth, income, and wide-moat resilience. QXO is a high-conviction, founder-led housing distribution play with significant upside potential if housing markets recover. REXR offers a 4.5% yield and turnaround potential as Southern California industrial rents stabilize and absorption rebounds.

Class A shares of the Alger Capital Appreciation Fund outperformed the Russell 1000 Growth Index during the second quarter of 2026. Nebius Group has positioned itself as a leading next-generation cloud provider purpose-built for machine learning and high-performance computing workloads. Netflix's shares detracted from performance during the quarter despite first-quarter results that beat on revenue and held full-year guidance intact.

A short-term focus on housing weakness has driven QXO to be undervalued if it can continue its consolidation of the building products distribution market. Strong CEO in Brad Jacobs, who has a superb track record of industry consolidation with previous ventures: United Rentals and XPO Inc., both returned >6,000% since their IPOs. I rate QXO a "Buy" at $15 or below, driven by strong EBITDA growth associated with the official closing of the TopBuild acquisition on July 1, 2026.

QXO, Inc. has completed its $17B TopBuild acquisition, creating an $18B revenue platform with nationwide reach. Despite integration risks and near-term losses, QXO trades below its acquisition price for TopBuild, presenting a compelling long-term value opportunity. Management targets $4B organic EBITDA by 2030, with a clear blueprint for procurement synergies, technology rollout, and cross-selling across its diversified portfolio.
