Interest (expense) income, net was $(37.7) million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $57.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The comparative increase in interest expense was primarily due to additional debt that was issued by QXO Building Products in connection with the Beacon Acquisition, resulting in higher interest expense.

The Company’s cash balance was $2.31 billion as of September 30, 2025 and consisted primarily of cash on deposit with banks and investments in money market funds. In addition, we may choose to raise additional funds at any time through equity or debt financing arrangements, which may or may not be needed for additional working capital, acquisitions or other strategic investments. We continually evaluate our liquidity requirements considering our operating needs, growth initiatives and capital resources. Following the Beacon Acquisition, our primary sources of liquidity are cash on the balance sheet, cash generated by operations and borrowings under the ABL Facility. Our primary uses of cash after the Beacon Acquisition are working capital requirements, debt service requirements and capital expenditures. We believe that our existing liquidity and sources of capital are sufficient to support our operations over the next 12 months.
