CSW Industrials Deploys $57.8 Million Executing Acquisition Strategy Through Multiple Transactions in Profitable HVAC/R and Plumbing End Markets

Acquisition Highlights

  • Cover Guard complements CSWI’s existing lineset covers sold into the heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVAC/R) end market
  • AC Guard expands the range of HVAC/R installation accessories
  • Falcon Stainless, Inc. designs and sells high-quality water and gas connectors used primarily in plumbing and HVAC/R applications
  • Capital investment multiple of 6.6 times the combined acquired trailing twelve-month EBITDA
  • Expected to be accretive to earnings per share in the first full year of ownership
  • $487MM of cumulative inorganic capital investment in the profitable, high-growth Contractor Solutions segment since December 2020

DALLAS, Oct. 04, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CSW Industrials, Inc. (Nasdaq: CSWI) today announced the strategic deployment of $57.8 million in completing the acquisitions of Cover Guard, AC Guard, and Falcon Stainless, Inc. (Falcon). All three acquisitions demonstrate the Company’s ongoing commitment to add compelling product offerings for existing customers by maximizing its deep experience in the HVAC/R and plumbing end markets, existing distribution channels, and go-to-market strategy.

Joseph B. Armes, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of CSW Industrials, said, “These acquisitions align with our stated objective of enhancing long-term shareholder value as we once again deliver accretive, synergistic inorganic growth within our existing end markets. These newly acquired products are complementary to our existing HVAC/R and plumbing offerings and provide a meaningful value proposition to our end use customers. These acquisitions integrate directly into Contractor Solutions’ sales channel, warehouses, distribution networks, and supply chain. We expect the addition of these high value-added products to produce incremental market share gains.”

The $57.8 million of total deployed capital represents approximately 6.6 times the combined acquired trailing twelve month adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA). CSWI funded the transactions with cash on hand and borrowings under its existing $400.0 million revolving credit facility.

The acquisitions of the Cover Guard and AC Guard product lines further expand Contractor Solutions’ offering of leading HVAC/R accessories. Cover Guard is a patented, adjustable, innovative lineset cover that augments Contractor Solutions’ existing selection of lineset covers. AC Guard is an enclosure that enhances the security of outdoor HVAC condenser units and represents an HVAC/R product line expansion. Through these differentiated products, Contractor Solutions expects to achieve incremental ductless and ducted HVAC/R market penetration. 

Falcon provides high-quality, full port, corrugated stainless steel, and flexible water and gas connectors that are used extensively in the plumbing and HVAC/R end markets. Falcon products are well-known among the professional trades for supplying enhanced water flow delivery and increased customer satisfaction. The addition of Falcon products supplements Contractor Solutions’ existing product portfolio. The combined plumbing offerings result in a holistic solution for water heaters and gas appliances and strengthen CSWI’s market share in these categories.
