Building Products Industry Spotlight
Introduction
As building codes tighten, environmental impact awareness
heightens and consumer demand for expanded options
intensifies, the building products landscape is becoming more
sophisticated and diversified. With U.S. residential housing
starts reaching 926,700 units in 2013 (the highest level since
2007) and expected to surpass 1.0 million units in 2014, the
Building Products industry has an established foundation on
which to build over the coming years.
In today’s Building Products industry, new developments in
product technologies are applied broadly across both markets.
Recoveries in both the commercial and residential construction
markets will drive growth and investment activity throughout
the sector.
TM Capital anticipates continued growth in the Building
Products industry in the coming years as it recovers from the
significant, sustained headwinds of the economic recession
that wreaked havoc on consumer confidence, depressed real
estate values and halted investments. In this report, we will
explore the economic factors in residential and commercial
construction that underpin a broad and sustained recovery in
new construction. We will also examine compelling data in
residential fixed investment and the remodeling market that
support demand from a large existing base of residential and
commercial projects. With a solid foundation of demand from
both new construction and existing building stock, we will turn
our attention to the exciting trends we see for value creation
through market consolidation and investment by both financial
sponsors and well-known industry players.
Historically, the Building Products industry has been viewed
through a narrow lens trained on the trends impacting either
the residential or commercial building markets. In this initiating
report on the Building Products industry, TM Capital is taking a
different approach. We are looking at the industry landscape
through a wider lens focused on several major product
categories including: Windows & Doors, Cabinetry, Plumbing,
Hardware, HVAC, Lighting, Countertops, Flooring & Carpets,
Molding & Trim, Roofing, Siding, Insulation, Architectural Paint,
Building Boards, Flat Glass and Building Products Distributors.
Separating the industry into these component categories
allows us to look at the individual companies and products that
address both sides of the market, residential and commercial.

Building Products Industry Spotlight
Market Demand Drivers
within the Building Products industry and its subsectors we will
explore include:
half of the year as spending on big-ticket home remodeling
projects increase (see Figure 5).
Increased Residential Construction – In 2013, private
residential construction spending continued its upward trend,
growing by 18.0% from $280.3 billion in 2012 to $330.7 billion
which represents a 38.5% increase over the 2010 trough level
of $238.8 billion (11.5% CAGR) (see Figure 1). As Figure 2
shows, U.S. housing starts reached 926,700 units, the highest
level since 2007, providing further evidence of a strong pickup
in residential construction. Although levels are still well below
the long-term annual average of 1.5 million annual starts,
economists are predicting a better year in 2014 with continued,
steady growth in 2015 and beyond.
Focused Consolidation through Strategic M&A – The
Building Products industry is highly fragmented and well
positioned for continued consolidation through mergers
and acquisitions. Global players in the industry are buying
brands, expanding their portfolio of products and entering new
markets; trends that are expected to continue. Since 2011,
there have been over 750 strategic acquisitions globally in the
building products space.
Robust Financial Sponsor-Driven M&A Activity – Many
financial sponsors with portfolio companies in the Building
Products space deferred going to market during 2013 in order
to realize earnings growth; a wave of private capital is now
looking to capitalize on the cyclical rebound in construction
throughout the residential and construction sectors. Since
2011, there have been over 250 financial sponsor investments
in or exits of U.S. and Canada based building products
companies.
Strengthening Private Residential Fixed Investment
– Private residential fixed investment, a measurement of
spending by private businesses, nonprofit institutions, and
households on fixed assets in the U.S. economy, has ticked
up modestly as a percentage of GDP from a 65 year low in
2011. This has been driven by residential construction and
home improvement spending throughout 2013 (see Figure
3). Looking forward, there is significant room for growth in
investment and all indications point to a continually improving
trend.
Market Demand Drivers
Residential Construction – In 2013, total U.S. private
residential construction spending grew 18.0% versus 2012 and
38.5% (11.5% CAGR) versus the trough in 2010. New single
family, multi-family and improvement spending increased
27.9%, 43.9% and 3.1%, respectively. The upward trend seen
since 2010 is a positive indicator for the industry, and we
expect spending and strong growth to continue in the second
half of 2014 and into 2015. Although growth is expected, a
slow start to 2014 may result in a delayed recovery. In March
2014, U.S. homebuilder confidence trended below forecast, a
result of continued poor weather and difficulty for homebuilders
in finding skilled labor and buildable lots. While the unusually
harsh weather has tempered the beginning of 2014, we believe
that this is a temporary pause and continue to expect builders
to see strong gains as warmer weather arrives.
Sector-Driven Non-Residential Construction – After hitting
a trough in 2011, private non-residential spending accelerated
in 2012, growing 15.6% from 2011, then flattened in 2013, with
strong growth experienced in lodging and a significant decline
in construction related to power generation. Consensus
construction estimates project that 2014 will grow in excess
of 5.0% as a result of the continued strengthening of the U.S.
economy and recovery in the non-residential construction
market.
Accelerating Remodels and Repairs – Remodeling and
repair activity is a direct driver of demand in the Building
Products market. In 2014, remodeling activity is expected to
surpass $140.0 billion with growth rates above 10% for the first

Positive trends in housing starts create an improved macro
environment for Building Products companies operating in the
residential construction sector. Following a significant decline
from 2006 through 2009, U.S. residential housing starts began
to rebound modestly year-over-year in 2010 (6.0% growth)
and 2011 (3.7% growth) before accelerating in 2012 (28.1%
growth). Although housing starts remain well below the longterm annual average of 1.5 million units, in 2013 the U.S.
recorded 926,700 units, the highest level since 2007. While
many analysts originally predicted that 2013 starts would
eclipse the 1.0 million unit level, there were many factors
hampering demand in 2013. Consumer demand, driven by
rising mortgage rates, took the biggest bite out of new home
starts; the 30-year fixed mortgage rate increased by more
than 100bps, from 3.35% in May to 4.46% in December 2013.
Analysts are predicting mortgage rates to rise by at least onehalf of a percent in 2014 to the 5.0%-5.5% area. However,
predictions for rising rates have been proven false in Q1 as
weak employment, slow growth and market weakness have
kept rates in the mid-4.0% area. Even if these rates should
rise to the expected 5.0%-5.5% area, they would still remain
below the historical averages of 6.0%-8.0%. In addition to
mortgage rates, housing starts were also dragged down

by debt-ceiling discussions in Washington, the two-week
government shutdown and concerns surrounding the Federal
Reserve’s bond buyback program.
Looking forward, several economists and analysts are
predicting a continued recovery and forecasting that housing
starts will eclipse the 1.0 million unit level in 2014. The
National Association of Home Builders (“NAHB”) predicts
steady growth with expectations of a full recovery in 2016. TM
Capital believes these positive trends signal the early stages
of a recovery in the Building Products sector, as accelerating
housing starts and remodeling lead to increased demand for
building products.
Private Residential Fixed Investment – Private residential
fixed investment includes the construction of new single-family
and multi-family homes, manufactured housing (or mobile
homes) and home improvements. As shown in Figure 3
below, private residential fixed investment has accounted for
an annual average of 4.7% of GDP since World War II, but
currently represents less than 3.0% of GDP, up slightly from
its 65 year low.

As shown in Figure 4, private residential fixed investment rose
substantially in 2013 with year-over-year growth by quarter
rising to over 20% for the first time since the second quarter of
2004. This growth has been fueled by new housing starts and
home improvement spending.
purchasing managers’ index. In 2014, the JCHS is expecting
the home remodeling market to experience strong growth
driven by increased spending.
Non-Residential Construction – Private non-residential
construction spending has been sector-driven over the past
several years, showing signs of a recovery, but remaining well
below historic peaks. Spending on non-residential construction
grew 15.6% in 2012, but declined modestly in 2013 primarily
due to an 18.7% decline in construction related to the electric
power industry (see Figure 6). In 2012, construction related
to electric power generation surged as a result of rebuilds
following a series of major natural disasters. The 2013 decline
was offset by construction in the lodging sector, which led
category growth at 28.7%. Going forward, construction in
the power and energy sectors should experience the largest
sustained turnaround. Construction for shale-related drilling
will continue to expand, increasing demand for pipelines, plants
and downstream facilities including tank farms, petrochemical
plants and export terminals.
Remodeling and Repairs – The Joint Center for Housing
Studies at Harvard University (“JCHS”) tracks the Leading
Indicator of Remodeling Activity (“LIRA”) on a Latest Twelve
Month (LTM) basis every quarter, as seen in Figure 5 below.
JCHS expects double-digit gains, on a moving four-quarter
average basis, for the first-half of 2014, before returning to just
below 10% by the third quarter.
The LIRA, measured as an annual rate-of-change of its
components, provides a short-term outlook of homeowner
remodeling activity and is intended to help identify future
turning points in the business cycle of the home improvement
industry. The LIRA model utilizes eight different economic
indicators to estimate near-term changes in the market: (i)
remodeling market index-future expectations, (ii) pending
home sales index, (iii) 30-year treasury bonds yield, (iv) single
family housing starts, (v) retail sales at building materials and
supplies dealers, (vi) manufacturers’ shipments of construction
materials, wood products and household appliances, (vii)
number of employees of residential remodelers and (viii) the
Commercial construction, a subsector of non-residential
construction, grew 8.8% in 2013. The growth in commercial
spending was primarily driven by warehouses and retail, which
experienced 22.8% and 8.0%, growth, respectively. As shown
in Figure 8, commercial construction spending remains well

below peak levels and has significant room for growth over the
next five to ten years. We expect the upward trend to continue
as demand grows for new U.S. projects.
Summary – From the words of the all-knowing Magic 8-ball,
“All Signs Point to Yes.” No matter which of the above indicators
one chooses to look at, the message is the same, recovery
is imminent. Growth in the Building Products market is not
dependent on an aggressive recovery to all-time highs; instead,
growth will come from a steady return to historical levels. We
expect to see continued growth across both the residential
and non-residential construction markets. Despite a slow
weather-driven start to 2014, economists continue to forecast
a strong finish to 2014. Recovery in the construction markets is
being driven by several overarching economic indicators. Job
growth, although sluggish, is still taking place. Interest rates
remain low compared to historical standards. The bank lending
environment is showing improvement with respect to lending
terms and volume of loans. Finally, the improving economy will
continue to positively impact consumer credit which has been
slowly returning to historical levels since it was significantly
impacted by the Credit Card Act of 2009 and the recession.
All of these factors will continue to contribute to growth and
investment activity in the building products market.
The American Institute of Architects (“AIA”) publishes an
Architecture Billing Index (“ABI”), which acts a proxy for private
building activity – scores above 50.0 represent an increase in
billings. The ABI, which serves as an economic indicator that
leads nonresidential construction activity by approximately
nine to twelve months, softened, but remained above 50.0
for the first four months of 2014. Figure 7, seen on the top
right of this page, shows the architecture billing index for the
commercial / industrial industry. The score of 50.2 for the
month of April is not reflective of the strong market and is likely
attributed to severe weather conditions that persisted into
the late winter months. Despite the softening since January,
there remains a pervading sense of optimism that business
conditions will improve as the year progresses.

and expertise, which causes industry leaders to focus on high
demand markets (i.e. asphalt) and creates opportunities for
mid-sized and small players in lower demand markets (i.e.
elastomeric and bituminous).
The Building Products landscape is highly fragmented,
although there has been a marked trend towards consolidation
in recent years. In each category, companies primarily
compete based on brand recognition, quality, price, style,
customer relationships, ease of installation & maintenance and
service capabilities. Certain industries are more fragmented
than others - cabinetry, hardware, flooring & carpets, molding
& trim, and roofing & siding are still relatively fragmented,
primarily as a result of low barriers to entry and the ability
of smaller players to serve niche markets. In each of these
industries, a wide range of material/product alternatives
exists, often requiring different manufacturing technologies
and expertise. For example, many different materials can be
used in roofing applications, including asphalt, metal, plastic,
tile, elastomeric and bituminous, each with different price,
performance, durability and application characteristics. These
roofing alternatives require different manufacturing processes
On the other hand, countertop, insulation, architectural paint
and building boards are fairly consolidated. These industries
tend to rely more heavily on one or several material/product
alternatives, enabling large manufacturers to serve a greater
portion of the market. For example, fiberglass is the dominant
insulation material in the U.S. and can be costly to produce.
Therefore, manufacturers must realize a minimum scale
of production to achieve profitability. Similarly, laminates
comprise nearly 50% of the countertop market, enabling the
leading laminate manufacturers to command a substantial
share of the countertop market. An overview of the Building
Products landscape by major segment is shown below:

M&A Activity
M&A Activity
Historically, M&A activity within the Building
Products industry has been influenced by
trends in the residential / non-residential
construction and remodeling / repair markets
as well as by macroeconomic variables.
Transaction activity peaked in 2007, with
a record of 436 closed transactions in
the Building Products sector. In 2009,
activity tumbled to 236 closed transactions.
Activity picked up significantly post-2009
as the global economic environment began
to improve. In 2013, activity declined as
Building Products companies anticipated
strong earnings growth and decided to
defer going to market until they could
demonstrate improved earnings. Given
the industry growth in 2013, we expect
deal activity to increase significantly in
2014. Strategic and financial acquirers will
be looking to take advantage of industry
tailwinds and macroeconomic trends.
There continues to be a trend towards consolidation in
the Building Products space as major companies acquire
competitors and value-added brands solidify their market
positions. These acquisitive building products companies
have been focused on purchasing niche companies that have
developed a specific technological edge and/or a strong brand
name. Through an acquisition, the buyer is able to leverage
its established distribution networks and improve the sales and
margins of the acquired business.

pages delve into consolidation that has occurred in the various
sub-sectors of the Building Products space as well as recent
acquisitions completed by private equity firms.
Market Consolidation Driven by M&A Activity – The
Building Products market is highly fragmented with a relatively
low concentration of market share. As a result of this
fragmentation, the Building Products market has undergone
significant consolidation over the past several years as
companies drive growth through mergers and acquisitions.

Case Study: Financial Sponsor Exit to Strategic Buyer
Sun Capital Partners sells American Standard to LIXIL Corporation
In August 2013, LIXIL Corporation, Japan’s largest building materials and housing equipment manufacturer,
acquired 100% of the shares of ASD Americas Holding Corp. (“ASD”), the parent company of American
Standard Brands from an affiliate of Sun Capital Partners, in a deal worth $542 million. Bloomberg news
reported that Adjusted EBITDA for the 12 months ended May 2013 was $48.5 million, implying an TEV/
Adjusted LTM EBITDA multiple of over 11.0x. American Standard will remain headquartered in the United
States and continue to operate all existing facilities.
“American Standard will serve as a key
platform for LIXIL as we continue to fulfill
our ambitions to become a worldwide
leader in the building materials and
housing equipment market…this
transaction will strengthen the brand
and the company’s considerable
manufacturing capabilities and
technological best practices.”
American Standard, a leading North American manufacturer
of high quality kitchen and bath products, provides LIXIL with
greater scale, improved manufacturing and an additional
platform in the North American market. LIXIL has been
extremely acquisitive over the past several years, expanding
both its geographic reach and its product breadth.
– Yoshiaki Fujimori
President, LIXIL Corp.
Following the acquisition of American Standard, LIXIL acquired
German-based GROHE Group S.à r.l., for 3.0 billion euros, the
largest ever German investment by a Japanese company. GROHE is Europe’s leading single-brand manufacturer of premium bathroom,
shower and kitchen fittings.
In December of 2011, LIXIL acquired Permasteelisa S.p.A., a global manufacturer of high-end curtain walls based in Italy for 575 million euros.
Permasteelisa operates in 27 countries including Europe, Asia, North America and the Middle East.
We expect to continue to see global building products companies buying strong brands to expand geographic presence and broaden product
offerings.

Under AEA, CPG had
executed five acquisitions
and invested over $55 million in capacity
expansion projects. AEA helped grow CPG from
approximately $220 million in revenue in 2005 to
over $500 million, despite the housing downturn
and economic recession.
The acquisition of CPG represents one of the
larger bets on a housing recovery by a large
investment firm. As mentioned throughout our
report, private equity companies have a renewed
interest in the building products market and are
looking to take advantage of the ongoing rebound.

Valuation Considerations
Valuation Considerations
The charts below depict the valuation metrics and stock
performance of the Building Products industry by major
segment. In general, consumer-facing companies with a
strong brand name trade at a premium to more commoditized
companies that rely heavily on raw material inputs (i.e.
insulation and building boards). Other key factors include size,
recent and projected growth trends and EBITDA margins. TEV
/ EBITDA multiples have increased steadily over the past five
years, growing from a range of 6.0x-8.0x in December 2008 to
a range of 10.0x-16.0x today. Forward multiples suggest that
investors expect the housing market rebound to accelerate
in 2014. Additionally, each Building Products category has
outperformed the S&P 500 over the past five years, with
returns ranging from 140.0%-330.0%.
