208th Buyout
Building products distributor GMS (GMS) is the 208th Arora Portfolio company to receive a buyout offer.
The Offer
GMS has entered into an agreement with The Home Depot (HD). GMS will be acquired by SRS Distribution, Home Depot’s specialty trade distribution subsidiary. The total enterprise value of the offer is $5.5B. The offer is for $110 cash per share.
There is a no-shop provision in the offer, reducing the likelihood of GMS taking another offer.
The deal is expected to close before February 2026. However, closing may be delayed up to six months to meet the HSR Act and Competition Act.
Making A Fortune From Buyouts
A fortune is to be made from buyouts. When companies are bought out, the stock jumps, producing gains for stockholders. The GMS deal is at about a 36% premium.
Members who routinely invest in buyout targets have made a fortune. This record is better than firms charging $50K. With The Arora Report, you get so much more.
