Instone, a wholly owned subsidiary of Capstone, has been central to the company’s growth strategy. Kevin Grotke, CEO of Instone, highlighted the subsidiary’s focus on customer acquisition and top-line growth. Instone’s efforts have been instrumental in laying the groundwork for the parent company’s expansion plans.
In the fourth quarter of 2024, Instone introduced Toro Stone in six new states, installing 90 displays and securing orders from over 50 customers. The company also implemented cost reduction initiatives and reported improved gross margins.
Capstone’s acquisition strategy for 2025 includes a focus on Tuck-In Acquisitions, Sister Companies, and Platform Acquisitions, with favorable deal structures and acquisition multiples ranging from 4-6x EBITDA. A significant portion of the acquisition consideration is expected to be non-cash.
This expansion strategy has positioned Capstone as a leading national platform in the building products space, with over half of its revenue coming from brands it owns or controls. The company continues to strengthen its portfolio of proprietary brands and enhance its geographic footprint.
