Day-one integration model turns acquired inventory into full-margin sales; Company expects to report positive Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2026
NEW YORK, July 14, 2026--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Capstone Holding Corp. (NASDAQ: CAPS), a national, technology-enabled building products distribution platform, today announced that it has converted $700,000 of surplus inventory into sales, without discounting, on one of its largest product lines, within six months of the acquisition of Canadian Stone Industries (CSI). The Company achieved the result by redeploying product to the markets where demand was strongest across its national platform.
Capstone integrates each acquisition from day one, unifying inventory management, purchasing, ordering, and demand planning on a single platform. That integration allows the Company to reduce excess inventory, avoid duplicate purchasing, improve working capital efficiency, and improve product availability for customers. Across its completed acquisitions, these synergies have supported margin expansion and Adjusted EBITDA growth.
The result builds on the Company's May consolidation of its Midwest distribution network, which generated $500,000 in annualized cost savings and unlocked a separate $700,000 of working capital. Building products companies that make frequent, material acquisitions have generated total shareholder returns of 9.6%, compared with 2.7% for inactive peers, according to Bain & Company's Global M&A Report.
"Every acquisition has made our platform stronger, not only by adding revenue but by creating lasting operational synergies," said Matthew Lipman, Chief Executive Officer. "Converting surplus inventory into full-margin sales is our integration model working as designed: better working capital efficiency for the Company and better product availability for our customers. We expect to report positive Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2026, and we believe this advantage compounds as we continue to scale."
