We have initiated coverage of 4 companies in the building products distribution and installation industry (collectively “distributors”)

The homebuilding industry is short labor - we like the distributors because they provide partial solutions to this challenge

In 2020, we believe the distributors will have pricing power as housing starts accelerate and labor shortages worsen

Our Buys are BLDR and IBP because we believe consensus is underestimating each company’s ability to take advantage of improving starts

We believe these stocks can outperform in 2020 as revenue and EPS growth beat expectations and consensus estimates move higher

Valuation is supportive here – the multiples for both stocks are below their 4 year averages

In n Lum Lumber and nd Buil uildin ing Materia ials ls (LBM), we believe that the structural components category will outgrow the overall market as homebuilders increasingly adopt products that reduce framing labor requirements and construction cycle times

  • ndows. We expect these products to

undergrow in 2020

In n ins nsula latio ion, the dominant players (our coverage) have pricing power as starts move higher

Insulation is ~2% of cost to construct a home, so as insulation prices rise, installers can pass it through and grow margin

After a strong 2019 for the stocks, we believe there is further appreciation ahead:

Distributors are 78% correlated to starts, which we expect to grow in 2020

We believe EPS growth will growth in 2020 on both stronger top line AND margin expansion

Stocks currently trade at 7% below 2016-current average multiples

LBM revenue is highly correlated to lumber prices but the STOCKS are less correlated – while the fluctuations in price creates income statement volatility, we have found it tends to net out by the bottom line

Initial impact of higher lumber prices -> no change to revenue because of customer pricing commitments, gross margin declines, lower SG&A/Sales offsets GM because sales force is paid in part on gross margin

Builders FirstSource (BLDR): Buy $31 PT

BLDR is the second largest LBM distributor in the US and the largest with manufacturing capabilities. BLDR

  • perates out of 400 locations in 40 states

We believe BLDR is best positioned to take advantage of higher demand for structural components as a result of BLDR’s long-running strategy and recent investment activity

Over the past three years, BLDR has significantly added to its manufacturing capabilities by opening 9 new manufacturing facilities in addition to new lines and new equipment at existing facilities

Recent M&A also focused on increasing structural component capabilities. 4 truss facilities acquired and recent acquisition of Raney Construction adds vertically integrated off-site construction capabilities

Current multiple of 7.1x is 5% below its 2016-current average and 26% below the 2018 peak. Higher revenue and EPS growth from increasing structural component adoption should lead to lead to multiple expansion in 2020

  • f 12/31/18. BMCH operates out of 150 facilities in 18 states with TX, CA, and GA accounting for 55% of 2018

revenue

We believe BMCH’s revenue growth from volume will be slower than the overall market in 2020 due to its exposure to slower growth geographic and product categories

BMCH has revenue and margin concentration in CA and WA and limited exposure to some of the strongest housing markets in AZ, FL, and NV

We believe the millwork, doors, and windows category will undergrow in 2020 as builders continue to shift mix to more affordable entry-level housing

This category accounted for just under 30% of BMCH’s LTM revenue and generates the company’s highest margins

We believe slower growth limits upside from current levels.

BMCH’s multiple is 10% below its 4 year average

IBP is the second largest residential insulation installer in the US with over 175 branches in 38 states.

Pure-play installer with 28% residential market share and 4% commercial market share

IBP is at the beginning stages of incremental margin re-acceleration which consensus underestimates

2018 conservatism on price was a drag through 2Q19 – we see the pricing conservatism reversing

Commercial startup costs now abating

Believe re-accelerating margins and the potential for consensus revisions will lead to multiple expansion

BLD is the largest US insulation installer and operates out of almost 200 branches in 40 states; distribution

  • perates out of 75 locations in 32 states

Residential market share is 40% and commercial is 10%

After four years of significant margin expansion, we expect margin improvement to decelerate and we believe consensus over-estimates BLD’s margin expansion potential

Margins have been boosted by non-recurring events: (1) operational autonomy post-spin (2) an acquisition of a large peer, (3) switching from leasing to owning vehicles, and a (4) better ability to negotiate pricing with manufacturers following the 2017 litigation settlement with Owens Corning (OC, Not Rated)

We expect these tailwinds to begin to abate in 2020 and 2021, leading incremental margin to fall back into BLD’s guide of 22-27%

Current 9.8x EV/NTM EBITDA multiple already prices in our positive outlook on revenue growth

Installed Building Products, Inc. (IBP, Buy, $87.00 PT) Valuation: We value IBP on an EV/NTM EBITDA basis. Since 2016, IBP’s multiple has ranged from a low of 7.3x to a high of 16.1x, with an average multiple of 11.3x. IBP currently trades at 10.7x consensus NTM EBITDA. Our valuation multiple is 13.0x, 15% above its average multiple. We believe IBP’s multiple can expand in 2020 on improvements in incremental margin, which should in turn push consensus estimates higher. Risks: Macro risk, mortgage rate risk, manufacturer pricing pressure, and customer pricing pressure TopBuild Corp. (BLD, Neutral)) Valuation: We value BLD on an EV/NTM EBITDA basis. Since 2016, BLD’s multiple has ranged from a low of 6.8x to a high of 14.1x, with an average multiple of 10.3x. BLD currently trades at 10.9x our NTM EBITDA estimate. Our valuation multiple is 11.1x, a 7.5% premium to the 2016-current average. We do not expect BLD’s multiple to expand in 2020 due to incremental EBITDA deceleration and the potential for downward revisions to consensus EPS.
