IBP’s Acquisition Drive
Acquisitions have been a preferred mode of expansion for IBP for years. The company’s persistent focus on prioritizing profitable growth through acquiring well-run installers of insulation and complementary building products bodes well.
Recently, IBP acquired Pisgah Insulation and Fireplaces of NC, LLC. This acquisition will expand IBP’s reach in North Carolina.

In 2021, the company wrapped up 12 acquisitions, representing approximately $211 million of annual revenues, more than doubling IBP’s $100 million acquired revenue target for 2021. In 2022, IBP expects to generate at least $100 million of revenues. So far in 2022, the company has acquired approximately $54 million of annual revenues.
Coming to price performance, shares of this Zacks Rank #4 (Sell) firm have lost 43.3% year to date compared with the Zacks Building Products – Miscellaneous industry’s 19.7% decline. IBP has been facing the heat of inflationary pressure like other industry players, thereby resulting in margin compression as materials, particularly spray foam and several complementary installed products, continued to be difficult to source.
