Here are 1-2 brief analogies for Installed Building Products (IBP):

• A national Home Depot for installed building products, but catering solely to professional home builders.

• The national Roto-Rooter for essential building components like insulation, garage doors, and gutters in new homes.

Installed Building Products (symbol: IBP) primarily sells its services and products to other companies within the construction industry rather than directly to individuals for the majority of its revenue.

According to the company's annual reports (e.g., their 2023 10-K filing), no single customer accounted for 10% or more of their consolidated net revenue in the past several years. This indicates a diversified customer base across numerous builders and contractors, rather than reliance on a few major clients that would require individual disclosure.

Therefore, while specific names of major customer companies are not disclosed by IBP due to the dispersed nature of its client base, its primary categories of business customers include:

• National Home Builders: Large-scale residential construction companies operating across multiple states.
• Regional and Local Home Builders: Companies focused on residential construction within specific geographic regions or local markets.
• Multi-Family Builders: Developers and contractors specializing in apartment complexes, condominiums, and other multi-unit residential projects.
• Commercial Builders: Companies involved in the construction of non-residential buildings such as offices, retail spaces, and institutional facilities.
• Remodelers: Businesses undertaking significant renovation and remodeling projects, often for existing residential or commercial properties.

While IBP does serve individual homeowners directly for repair and remodel projects, this segment represents a smaller portion of its overall revenue compared to its business-to-business (B2B) builder customers.

The key risks to Installed Building Products (IBP) are primarily concentrated in its reliance on the cyclical housing market, operational challenges including competition and cost management, and regulatory changes.

1. Reliance on Cyclical Housing Market and Economic Conditions: Installed Building Products is heavily dependent on the cyclical and seasonal nature of the housing market, which is significantly influenced by factors such as interest rates, inflation, and consumer confidence. Economic downturns, rising interest rates, or declines in housing starts could substantially reduce demand for IBP's products and services, leading to lower revenues and profits. The company anticipates a decline in overall housing starts in 2025.
2. Operational Challenges and Competition: The markets for building products and installation services are highly competitive, which can result in pricing pressures, reduced profit margins, and a loss of market share for IBP. Additionally, the company faces challenges in managing rising labor costs and potential shortages of skilled workers, which can increase expenses and delay project completion. Supply chain disruptions, such as material shortages or increased raw material costs, also pose a risk to IBP's ability to fulfill contracts and maintain profitability, especially given competitive pressures that might hinder their ability to pass on these increased costs to customers.
3. Regulatory Changes: IBP is exposed to risks associated with changes in governmental regulations. This includes evolving building codes, environmental regulations (including ESG standards), and potential changes in immigration laws, which could impact labor availability and increase compliance costs.

The increasing adoption of off-site construction methods, such as modular and panelized building, presents a clear emerging threat. These methods shift a significant portion of the building product installation process (including insulation, windows, and other components) from traditional on-site activities to factory environments. As modular and prefabricated construction gain market share due to benefits like increased efficiency, reduced labor costs, and faster build times, the demand for IBP's on-site installation services could diminish, impacting their core business model.

• Insulation: The U.S. insulation market was estimated at USD 12.51 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 13.26 billion in 2024. This market is expected to grow at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 6.4% from 2024 to 2030, reaching USD 19.25 billion by 2030. This market size is for the U.S. region.
• Other Main Products and Services: IBP also installs a range of complementary building products including shower doors, garage doors, rain gutters, window blinds, waterproofing, fireproofing, closet shelving, mirrors, bath hardware, fireplaces, and door locksets and hardware. While IBP has market share in these categories, specific addressable market sizes for these individual complementary products and services were not identified in the provided information.

Installed Building Products (IBP): Expected Drivers of Future Revenue Growth

Installed Building Products (IBP) is anticipated to drive future revenue growth over the next 2-3 years through a combination of strategic acquisitions, robust performance in its commercial segment (particularly heavy commercial), continued expansion of complementary products, and favorable pricing and mix shifts. The company's ability to gain market share and expand geographically will also contribute to its top-line expansion.

The following are 3-5 expected drivers of future revenue growth for IBP:

1. Strategic Acquisitions: IBP consistently utilizes an acquisition strategy to expand its market presence and service offerings. The company aims to acquire over $100 million in annual revenue, having already completed several acquisitions year-to-date in 2025, including cellulose insulation manufacturing, glass, and regional installation firms. This inorganic growth is a significant component of its revenue expansion strategy.
2. Growth in the Heavy Commercial Segment: Despite some softness in residential and light commercial markets, the heavy commercial segment has demonstrated strong performance, with same-branch sales growth exceeding 30% in Q3 2025. This segment is expected to continue providing a substantial tailwind for revenue and profitability beyond 2025 due to increasing contract backlogs.
3. Expansion of Complementary Products and Product Diversification: IBP has seen double-digit growth in its complementary product sales, which include items such as specialty insulation, glass, and hydromulch. This diversification helps to support margins and earnings, offsetting volatility in other segments and broadening the company's offerings to both residential and commercial customers.
4. Favorable Price/Mix and Operational Discipline: While job volumes can fluctuate, IBP has achieved price/mix increases, which contributed to its revenue growth and margin stability. This is partly driven by a shift towards custom and semi-custom homebuilders, which typically offer higher average selling prices (ASPs). The company's national branch execution and operational discipline also play a role in navigating market challenges and capitalizing on opportunities.
