CRH (NYSE: CRH) shares buckled Monday. The company, the leading provider of building materials, today announced that it has signed an agreement to acquire 100% of Arcosa, Inc. (NYSE: ACA) in an all-cash transaction for $150 per share, subject to Arcosa stockholders’ and regulatory approvals. The offer to Arcosa stockholders implies a 25% premium to Arcosa’s 60-day trading VWAP as of June 18.
The transaction values Arcosa at a total enterprise value of approximately $8.5 billion, representing an acquisition multiple of 11.5x 2026E Adjusted EBITDA, including estimated annual run-rate cost synergies of $175 million by year three.
Headquartered in Dallas, Arcosa is a provider of infrastructure-related materials, products and solutions. Its Construction Products business is a leading aggregates platform in the U.S., with 109 quarries and yards, nine asphalt plants, 19 terminals and approximately 35 million tons (mt) of 2025 aggregates shipments.
Arcosa’s Engineered Structures business is a top three manufacturer of critical infrastructure products in the high-growth energy transmission market, supported by long-term megatrends in grid modernization, electrification, and data center construction.
Arcosa is highly complementary to CRH, advancing the company’s connected portfolio strategy. The transaction reinforces CRH’s position as the leader in U.S. aggregates, as well as globally, and increases exposure to some of the fastest-growing Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) in the U.S.
CRH shares lost $2.56, or 2.3%, to $108.65, while those for ACA climbed $9.96, or 7.3%, to $145.94.
