<p>QXO, Inc. (&ldquo;QXO&rdquo; or the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;) (NYSE: QXO) today announced the following preliminary financial information for the third quarter of 2026. The Company expects to report its full third quarter 2026 results on November 12, 2026.</p>

<h3>Third quarter 2026 summary preliminary results</h3>

<ul>
	<li>Net sales of approximately $4.90 billion, up 79% from $2.73 billion in the third quarter of 2025</li>
	<li>GAAP net loss of approximately $123 million, compared to a GAAP net loss of $139 million in the third quarter of 2025</li>
	<li>Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, of approximately $557 million, up 85% from $301 million in the third quarter of 2025</li>
</ul>

<p>Third quarter 2026 results include the results of Kodiak Building Partners, Inc. from April 1, 2026 and TopBuild Corp. from July 1, 2026, the respective dates of acquisition, neither of which is included in third quarter 2025 results.</p>

<p>The Company&rsquo;s preliminary unaudited financial results in this press release for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026 are preliminary, unaudited and subject to completion, and may change as a result of management&rsquo;s continued review. Such preliminary results are subject to the finalization of quarter-end financial and accounting procedures. The preliminary financial results represent management estimates that constitute forward-looking statements subject to risks and uncertainties. As a result, the preliminary financial results may differ from the actual results when they are completed and publicly disclosed. These preliminary results should not be viewed as a substitute for the Company&rsquo;s full third quarter financial statements and do not present all information necessary for a complete understanding of financial performance.</p>

<h3>About QXO</h3>

<p>QXO is a leading distributor and installer of building products serving an $800 billion market. The Company&rsquo;s mission is to modernize the building products industry through advanced technology and a best-in-class customer experience. QXO is North America&rsquo;s largest distributor and installer of insulation, the second-largest distributor of roofing products, the second-largest publicly traded distributor of lumber and building materials, and the largest distributor of waterproofing products. The Company is targeting $50 billion in annual revenue within the decade through accretive acquisitions and organic growth. For more information, visit <a href="https://www.qxo.com/">QXO.com</a>.&nbsp;</p>

<h3>Non-GAAP financial measures</h3>

<p>As required by the Securities and Exchange Commission (&ldquo;SEC&rdquo;) rules, the financial table attached to this press release reconciles Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, non-GAAP financial measures, to their most directly comparable measures under GAAP.</p>

<p>We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) excluding depreciation; amortization; stock-based compensation; interest (income) expense, net; loss on debt extinguishment; provision for (benefit from) income taxes; restructuring costs; transaction costs; transformation costs; and inventory fair value adjustments that we do not consider representative of our underlying operations.</p>

<p>The following expenses are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA:</p>

<ul>
	<li><em>Restructuring costs.</em> Represent severance and employee-related costs and abandoned lease costs associated with a restructuring plan that is expected to yield annualized savings but excludes stock-based compensation expense recognized as a result of a restructuring plan.</li>
	<li><em>Transaction costs.</em> Represent certain direct and incremental costs related to M&amp;A activities. Transaction costs are impacted by the timing and size of the acquisitions.</li>
	<li><em>Transformation costs. </em>Represent certain direct costs for strategic investments to modernize our business and operations and to integrate acquired businesses into QXO, such as: rebranding costs, retention costs for key employees of acquired businesses, IT infrastructure transformation costs, costs incurred to invest in new technologies such as artificial intelligence, and costs associated with non-recurring transformational initiatives to improve or optimize business operations. These costs are directed at optimizing the Company&rsquo;s processes to modernize the Company&rsquo;s operations.</li>
</ul>

<p>We have provided a reconciliation below of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most directly comparable financial measure as measured in accordance with GAAP, as well as a calculation of net margin and Adjusted EBITDA Margin.</p>

<p>Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and evaluating QXO&rsquo;s ongoing performance. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate analysis of our ongoing business operations because they exclude items that may not be reflective of, or are unrelated to, QXO&rsquo;s core operating performance, and may assist investors with comparisons to prior periods and assessing trends in our underlying business. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently, and therefore our measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.</p>]]></content:encoded>

<h3 dir="ltr">Conference Call to Be Held at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time Today</h3>

<p dir="ltr">CKX Lands, Inc. (NYSE American: CKX) (&ldquo;CKX&rdquo; or the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;) and Jacobs Private Equity II, LLC (&ldquo;JPE&rdquo;), led by Brad Jacobs, today announced that JPE and minority co-investors have agreed to invest $1 billion in cash in CKX. The equity investment is expected to consist of $900 million from JPE and $100 million from co-investors led by HRTG Partners, formerly Sequoia Heritage. Upon closing, JPE will hold a majority stake in CKX.</p>

<p dir="ltr">Upon closing, Jacobs will become Chairman and CEO of CKX, while continuing to serve as Chairman and CEO of QXO, Inc. CKX will be renamed and operate as a standalone public company platform in an industry to be determined.</p>

<p dir="ltr">Jacobs said, &ldquo;I love building multibillion-dollar market leaders and this $1 billion investment marks the launch of my ninth company. After concluding my chairmanships of XPO, GXO and RXO last year, I now have the capacity to create this new venture while continuing to lead QXO to its massive potential.&rdquo;</p>

<p dir="ltr">Jacobs has founded and led eight billion-dollar or multibillion-dollar companies over his career, including six iconic public companies: QXO, the second largest publicly traded building products distributor in North America; XPO, the second largest provider of less-than-truckload services in North America; GXO Logistics, the world&rsquo;s largest pure-play contract logistics provider; RXO, the third largest freight broker in North America; United Rentals, the world&rsquo;s largest equipment rental provider; and United Waste Systems, the fifth largest U.S. waste management company at the time of its sale. Jacobs and his teams have completed approximately 500 M&amp;A transactions.</p>

<p dir="ltr">Across these companies and industries, Jacobs has applied a consistent formula for shareholder value creation: attract world-class talent, drive operational excellence, implement best-in-class technology and scale the business through a combination of disciplined M&amp;A and organic growth.</p>

<h3 dir="ltr">Conference Call</h3>

<p dir="ltr">There will be a conference call on Monday, November 9, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time to discuss QXO&rsquo;s preliminary third-quarter results, business progress and outlook, as well as Brad Jacobs&rsquo; newly announced venture.

<h3 dir="ltr">The Investment Agreement</h3>

<p dir="ltr">Under the terms of the Investment Agreement, CKX will, prior to the closing of the equity investment, convert from a Louisiana corporation into a Delaware corporation and effect a holding company reorganization, pursuant to which a newly formed holding company will become the parent company of CKX and the publicly traded company and each outstanding share of CKX common stock will be converted into one equivalent share of common stock of the new holding company. The Company will also effect a 4.1744380:1 reverse stock split prior to the closing of the equity investment. Upon the closing of the investment and the effectiveness of the reverse stock split, JPE, HRTG Partners and the other co-investors will have: (i) voting, convertible perpetual preferred stock that, in aggregate, is convertible into approximately 219 million shares of the Company&rsquo;s common stock at a price of $4.57 per share (equivalent to $1.09 per share pre-split); and (ii) warrants to purchase an additional approximately 219 million shares of the Company&rsquo;s common stock at post-reverse-split exercise prices of: $4.57 per share (equivalent to $1.09 per share pre-split) with respect to 50% of the warrants, $6.85 per share (equivalent to $1.64 per share pre-split) with respect to 25% of the warrants, and $13.70 per share (equivalent to $3.28 per share pre-split) with respect to the remaining 25% of the warrants. Following the closing of the investment, JPE and the co-investors will own approximately 99.78% of the Company&rsquo;s common stock on a fully convertible/exchangeable basis, before giving effect to the exercise of the warrants.</p>

<p dir="ltr">In addition, CKX will declare an aggregate cash dividend of $20.8 million, equivalent to $10.1312 per share, to its stockholders of record as of a record date shortly prior to the closing of the equity investment, to be funded from proceeds received under the Investment Agreement and cash on hand. The transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement have been unanimously approved by CKX&rsquo;s board of directors, and are expected to be completed in early 2027. The transactions are subject to CKX stockholder approval and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Certain CKX stockholders, who collectively hold approximately 28% of the voting power of CKX&rsquo;s outstanding common stock, have entered into voting agreements, pursuant to which they have agreed to vote their shares in favor of the transactions.</p>

<p dir="ltr">William Gray Stream, President of CKX, said, &ldquo;We believe this investment will create compelling outcomes for our stakeholders, including the opportunity for our stockholders to receive a substantial upfront cash payment as part of a $20.8 million dividend. We expect our stockholders will benefit from retaining the value of our existing land business while also participating in the potential upside of Brad Jacobs&rsquo; future plans for the company.&rdquo;</p>

<p dir="ltr">Morgan Stanley &amp; Co. LLC is serving as financial advisor to JPE, and Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton &amp; Garrison LLP is serving as its legal advisor.</p>

<p dir="ltr">TAP Advisors is serving as financial advisor to CKX, and Fishman Haygood is serving as its legal advisor.</p>]]></content:encoded>

<h2 dir="ltr">Scott Riopelle, Marcus Clinco, Randy Fernandez and Leo Ibarra are honored for their service to WSRCA and the roofing industry.</h2>

<p dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.rooferscoffeeshop.com/directory/wsrca" rel="" target="_blank">Western States Roofing Contractors Association (WSRCA)</a> just announced their 2025&ndash;2026 President&rsquo;s Award winners! Chosen by the WSRCA president (this year by outgoing president Stan Robinson of <a href="https://www.rooferscoffeeshop.com/directory/pacific-west-roofing" rel="" target="_blank">Pacific West Roofing</a>), these awardees are celebrated for not only uplifting the WSRCA community but also the entire roofing industry.</p>

<p dir="ltr">As Stan put it:</p>

<blockquote>
<p dir="ltr">These three individuals represent what makes Western States such a strong organization. They give their time, share their knowledge and continually look for ways to make the association and our industry better. It has been an honor to recognize them for everything they have contributed.</p>
</blockquote>

<h3 dir="ltr">Scott Riopelle named Wrangler of the Year</h3>

<p dir="ltr">Scott Riopelle led an outstanding membership effort during the 2025-2026 year, helping bring 95 QXO branches into Western States.</p>

<p dir="ltr">The Wrangler of the Year Award honors the individual who made the greatest contribution to growing the association&rsquo;s membership during the past year. Scott&#39;s efforts expanded Western States&rsquo; reach and created more opportunities for roofing professionals to connect, exchange knowledge and support one another.</p>

<p dir="ltr">&ldquo;Growing Western States is about building relationships and strengthening our industry,&rdquo; Scott said. &ldquo;Helping bring 95 <a href="https://www.rooferscoffeeshop.com/directory/qxo" rel="" target="_blank">QXO</a> branches into the association was a team effort, and I&rsquo;m proud to have played a role. Bringing more people together benefits our members and the roofing industry as a whole.&rdquo;</p>

<h3 dir="ltr">Marcus Clinco recognized as Board Member of the Year</h3>

<p dir="ltr">Marcus Clinco provided outstanding leadership as chair of the Member Services Committee while remaining actively involved throughout Western States. Marcus also serves as a trustee of the <a href="https://www.rooferscoffeeshop.com/directory/davis-memorial-foundation-directory" rel="" target="_blank">Davis Memorial Foundation</a>. Both the Membership Committee and the foundation experienced tremendous growth during the past year, with Clinco&rsquo;s leadership, energy and involvement contributing to the success of both groups.</p>

<p dir="ltr">&ldquo;Marcus stepped up everywhere we needed him this year,&rdquo; Stan said. &ldquo;He took ownership of the Membership Committee, stayed heavily involved throughout the association and continued his work with the Davis Memorial Foundation. Both groups had tremendous years, and Marcus deserves a lot of credit for the energy and leadership he brought to them.&rdquo;</p>

<h3 dir="ltr">Randy Fernandez receives Outstanding Service Award</h3>

<p dir="ltr">Randy Fernandez was recognized for his expertise, generosity and continued willingness to serve Western States and its members. Randy recently became vice chair of the Associate Advisory Council and continues to participate actively in association meetings and programs. He also presents fall protection certification courses at Western States Road Shows, sharing his knowledge with roofing professionals throughout the West.</p>

<p dir="ltr">Through Guardian Fall Protection, Randy provides every new Western States contractor member with a free fall protection kit, extending his commitment to safety and member value beyond the classroom.</p>

<p dir="ltr">&ldquo;Randy is one of those people who is always willing to help,&rdquo; Stan said. &ldquo;He shares his expertise with our members, stays involved in our meetings and has been incredibly generous to the association. His commitment to safety and to supporting our contractor members makes him very deserving of this recognition.&rdquo;</p>

<h3 dir="ltr">Leo Ibarra inducted into WSRCA Hall of Fame</h3>

<p dir="ltr">In addition to the announcement of the three awardees, WSRCA released their newest inductee into their Hall of Fame! A two-term president of Western States, Leo is being inducted in honor of his many years of leadership, service and dedication to the association. He helped lead the association through the COVID-19 pandemic, where his steady leadership guided the organization through unprecedented uncertainty and truly positioned Western States for continued growth in the new decade.</p>

<p dir="ltr">Even after his presidency ended, Leo has remained deeply involved with the association. He continues to champion the Waterproofing Committee and works to ensure waterproofing remains an important part of Western States&rsquo; education and industry outreach.</p>

<p dir="ltr">Fellow board members also know Leo as a thoughtful and steady presence whose experience and perspective are valued throughout the organization. As Stan put it:</p>

<blockquote>
<p dir="ltr">Leo has given an incredible amount to Western States. He led this association through circumstances none of us could have anticipated, and he did it with a calm and steady hand. Even after serving two terms as president, he never stopped showing up or looking for ways to help. He is someone we can always count on for perspective and a voice of reason, and I can&rsquo;t think of anyone more deserving of a place in the Western States Hall of Fame.</p>

<h2 dir="ltr">Siding is a natural extension for contractors looking to expand their offerings, strengthen customer relationships and increase project value while leveraging existing building envelope expertise.</h2>

<p dir="ltr">siding has become a key value-add for many contractors for many reasons, including the fact that homeowners prefer one-stop, do-it-all contractors. To learn more about the rise of siding offerings in the roofing world, Heidi J. Ellsworth spoke with Josh Wilens of <a href="https://www.rooferscoffeeshop.com/directory/qxo" rel="" target="_blank">QXO</a>, Alex Birnbaum of QXO and Kristina Hill of <a href="https://www.rooferscoffeeshop.com/directory/homeshield-roofing-and-exteriors" rel="" target="_blank">HomeShield Roofing &amp; Exteriors</a> in <a href="https://www.rooferscoffeeshop.com/webinar/beyond-the-roofline-growing-your-business-with-siding" rel="" target="_blank">an episode of Coffee Conversations&reg;.</a></p>

<h3 dir="ltr">Making the jump</h3>

<p dir="ltr">Siding is actually more similar to roofing than it might sound on paper. Both are parts of the building envelope and key to keeping water, weather and other elements out of homes and buildings. Further, many of the suppliers and distributors that contractors know and trust, like QXO, not only carry roofing materials but also carry siding materials.</p>

<p dir="ltr">In fact, Josh shard that at QXO they&rsquo;re actually working with organizations like the <a href="https://www.rooferscoffeeshop.com/directory/pepa" rel="" target="_blank">Polymeric Exteriors Products Association (PEPA)</a> to provide training to help ease the transition into this field:</p>

<blockquote>
<p dir="ltr">In terms of the training, a lot of the groundwork is already there for roofers and we just need to raise awareness. In prior days, some contractors didn&#39;t even know that we sold certain products in our locations. We&#39;ve been working with PEPA and some other internal resources to really develop training materials for contractors to help them know about siding and how they can add it to their roofing operations.</p>
</blockquote>

<h3 dir="ltr">A strong market</h3>

<p dir="ltr">And not only is it an accessible market, it&rsquo;s a thriving one. As Alex described, &ldquo;The exciting thing is there&#39;s never been more types of siding or more products out there and a lot of them come with innovative new features.&rdquo; Alex went on to give some examples, sharing, &ldquo;Fiber cement is something people are really excited about. It is really durable, has a nice look and for markets like the Southeast and Southwest, where termites are an issue, the market is really looking for this kind of thing.&rdquo;</p>

<p dir="ltr">Another factor that makes the market demand for siding strong is the return on investment it offers. Kristina explained, &ldquo;I have lots of conversations with people who are wanting to sell their home or boost their curb appeal and I always tell them that siding is really a great way to do that. Roofing in my area gets 26% recoup on your investment where vinyl siding is 88% and fiber cement siding is 101%.&rdquo;</p>

<h3 dir="ltr">Value to contractors</h3>

<p dir="ltr">The combination of the accessibility of siding installation and the strong market for siding makes this expanding into siding a valuable move for contractors. Kristina has experienced how valuable expanding into siding is firsthand at HomeShield Roofing &amp; Exteriors, sharing, &ldquo;We offered a few types at the beginning, mostly vinyl siding and then Hardie and LP...But because the demand has been there, we&rsquo;ve expanded way more in the years since.&rdquo;</p>

<h2>This report showcases the trends shaping roofing and gives unique insights into how the industry has grown in the last ten years.&nbsp;&nbsp;</h2>

<p>Over the last 10 years, the <a href="https://www.rooferscoffeeshop.com/trends-report-results">RoofersCoffeeShop&reg; Trends Report</a>, sponsored by <a href="https://www.rooferscoffeeshop.com/directory/qxo">QXO</a> since 2022, has provided key insights into what contractors are seeing and experiencing in the field as they continue to roof buildings and keep people safe and dry. Over that decade, there have been seven surveys conducted, resulting in over 1,600 responses. Here are four of the biggest shifts recorded in these surveys.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<h3>1 &ndash; Company demographics&nbsp;</h3>

<p>While all the surveys had a fairly consistent split between contractors serving commercial, residential or both, we saw the size of companies grow. Between 2016 and 2020, most respondents reported having 1-10 employees. However, between 2021 and 2025, 10-49 employees was the most common response.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<h3>2 &ndash; Products offered&nbsp;</h3>

<p>Another interesting thing that these surveys highlight is how the products that roofers are offering have changed since 2016. For example, in 2019, 81% of survey respondents reported installing liquid applied roofing (LAR) 0-10% of the time. By 2022, an average of 46% of contractors were reporting installing liquid applied roofing. Similar to this growth of LAR, the surveys show a significant growth in metal installation. In 2019, approximately 17.3% of all the contractor-installed materials were metal. By 2022, that number had jumped to 64% and by 2025 it was up to 83%.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<h3>3 &ndash; Operation processes&nbsp;</h3>

<p>The trends surveys also asked contractors about their operations. One of the interesting things we noticed in this data was a rise in digital purchasing methods (in 2022, 14% of contractors reported purchasing off of distributors&rsquo; websites, in 2025 this rose to 21%). Interestingly, field sales representative purchases also rose (17% in 2022 to 29% in 2025). Combined, these two purchasing methods have now overtaken phone and in-person at branches, which were the top two methods when the survey began.&nbsp;</p>

<h3>4 &ndash; Information engagement&nbsp;</h3>

<p>We wanted to take a moment to touch on the different ways that contractors are getting their information and engaging with our community today versus in 2016. In 2016, the top information sources were emails from roofing website, distributors and manufactures&rsquo; representatives. But in 2025, the top sources had shifted to roofing associations, roofing websites and then manufactures&#39; representatives. Another notable change was the rise of social media as a resource. In 2016, 22% of contractors reported using it for information. In 2025, that number rose to 50%.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<h2>TRI-BUILT&#39;s annual Top Dog contest is back, and they want your pup to be featured in their 2027 calendar!&nbsp;&nbsp;</h2>

<p>It might be hard to believe, but we&rsquo;re coming up on the last quarter of 2026! And not only does that mean it&rsquo;s time for contractors in the Northern Hemisphere to start wrapping up the busy season, but it also means it&rsquo;s time for a cherished tradition to come back &ndash; the Top Dogs Calendar Contest!&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>This contest is run by <a href="https://www.rooferscoffeeshop.com/directory/tri-built">TRI-BUILT&reg;</a>, <a href="https://www.rooferscoffeeshop.com/directory/qxo">QXO</a>&rsquo;s private label brand, and is on the hunt for 12 of the cutest, hardest-working pups in the roofing industry to feature in their next calendar. Why? Besides just wanting to see photos of your furry friends, QXO wants to showcase how these &ldquo;dogs not only bring joy to their owners, but also play an important role in the work culture of many roofing professionals who are committed to working hard and doing the job right.&rdquo;&nbsp;</p>

<p>How do you enter your pup? It&rsquo;s simple! <strong>Between now (September 2026) and October 16, 2026</strong>, <a href="https://go.qxo.com/topdog">send one or two photos of your fur-tastic friend to QXO</a> with an explanation of why they deserve a spot in the 2027 TRI-BUILT&reg; Top Dog Calendar alongside TRI-BUILT&rsquo;s mascot, Blu. Then, between October 19 and October 30, a panel of judges will go through all the submissions to pick the 12 dogs who will be featured on the calendar.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>The results will be released on November 3, 2026! In addition to being a part of the calendar, the 12 winning pups will receive $1,000 to give back to a local rescue organization of their choosing. And even if your dog isn&rsquo;t chosen, they will get a reward (because TRI-BUILT knows they&rsquo;re all the best dogs) in the form of a TRI-BUILT hands-free dog waste bag carrier and a 2027 Top Dogs Calendar. Calendars are expected to ship throughout December 2026 (just in time for the holidays!) and will feature the 12 cute companions posing with products from TRI-BUILT.&nbsp;</p>

<h2 dir="ltr">Experts explore why siding has become an attractive growth market for roofing contractors and how training programs are removing barriers to entry.</h2>

<p dir="ltr">As markets remain competitive and differentiation becomes more important, many contractors are looking for ways to expand their offerings. Why? Not only do diverse offerings create multiple paths of income for a business, having a wide portfolio can help you stand out to home and business owners!</p>

<p dir="ltr">One of the easiest ways for roofers in particular to expand their offerings is to add siding. To learn about why this is a good market for roofing contractors to expand into and to explore the different training opportunities available to help get your crew up to speed in a new market, we hosted Josh Wilens, Alex Birnbaum and Kristina Hill on an <a href="https://www.rooferscoffeeshop.com/webinar/beyond-the-roofline-growing-your-business-with-siding" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">episode of Coffee Conversations</a> all about how &ldquo;siding is becoming a key part of how contractors build stronger customer relationships and grow project value.&rdquo;</p>

<p dir="ltr">Siding is a great opportunity for roofers. Not only does it allow you to present yourself as a complete exterior solution provider, but it is also a fun challenge for your crew. Kristina reflected on the process of adding siding into her business, <a href="https://www.rooferscoffeeshop.com/directory/homeshield-roofing-and-exteriors" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">HomeShield Roofing &amp; Exteriors:</a></p>

<blockquote>
<p dir="ltr">Siding has been a bit of a pain point for us with finding good team members that fit the way that we like to do things. We&#39;ve fired many subcontractors because of quality of product, ability to take feedback, etc. But we keep at it not just because it&rsquo;s a great market opportunity but when you can find team members to add in your pocket that do things the way you do, it is such a fun thing.</p>
</blockquote>

<p dir="ltr">And one of the best ways to create those teams that make expansion more than just a logistical choice is to train them. Alex, who is a senior director at <a href="https://www.rooferscoffeeshop.com/directory/qxo" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">QXO</a> explained, &ldquo;The biggest barrier that we see is people don&#39;t get into siding because they&#39;re concerned about learning how to do installation or finding that reliable team.&rdquo;</p>

<p dir="ltr">In response to this pattern, QXO has made it a priority to make comprehensive training programs available to contractors all over the country. Josh explained, &ldquo;This year alone we&#39;ve run four trainings focused on siding at various hot markets around the country with one of our vinyl suppliers. And the way we developed these trainings is to be helpful for all audiences. We&rsquo;re focused on expanding awareness and making sure that everyone feels confident, whether that&rsquo;s an in-house crew or a subcontracting one.&rdquo;</p>

<p dir="ltr">The result of these trainings? Attendees leave with more than just product knowledge, they leave with hands-on experience and a familiarity with the product that gives them the confidence they need to start installing siding in the field. In other words, they become those ideal crews that Kristina noted help make the expansion of siding not just a good business prospect but a fun challenge.</p>
