Insights
Capstone's Q4 results show 8% year-over-year revenue growth, demonstrating positive momentum in the company's core business. This acceleration in the second half of 2024 suggests their strategic initiatives are gaining traction in the building products distribution space.
The company has set ambitious targets for 2025, including a $100 million operating revenue run rate and $10 million in Adjusted Instone EBITDA. These targets represent significant growth objectives that align with management's stated goal of doubling the business through acquisitions.
Capstone's acquisition strategy appears disciplined, targeting deals at 4-6x EBITDA multiples with 20-45% of consideration structured as non-cash. This approach preserves capital while enabling expansion. The focus on tuck-in acquisitions for their Instone subsidiary suggests a practical path to enhancing earnings without overextending financially.
Operational improvements are also noteworthy, with cost reduction initiatives yielding improved gross margins. The successful launch of their proprietary Toro Stone brand across 6 new states with 90 display installations and orders from 50+ customers demonstrates effective execution on their brand expansion strategy.
For a company with a $3.4 million market cap, the targeted $100 million revenue run rate indicates management is pursuing aggressive but potentially transformative growth that could significantly alter the company's valuation profile if achieved.

These forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as "will," "expects," "anticipates," "future," "intends," "plans," "believes," "estimates," "confident" and similar statements. Capstone Holding Corp. may also make written or oral forward looking statements in its periodic reports to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, in its annual report to shareholders, in press releases and other written materials, and in oral statements made by its officers, directors, or employees to third parties. Statements that are not historical facts, including but not limited to statements about Capstone's beliefs and expectations about: (i) possible future acquisitions including, but not limited to, acquisition multiples and the percentage of acquisition consideration that will be noncash; (ii) revenue run rate; and (iii) Adjusted Instone EBITDA run rate are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, further information regarding which is included in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, available for review at www.sec.gov. All information provided in this press release is as of the date of the press release, and Capstone Holding Corp. undertakes no duty to update such information, except as required under applicable law.
In addition to figures prepared in accordance with GAAP, Capstone from time to time presents alternative non-GAAP performance measures, e.g., EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net profit/loss, adjusted earnings per share, free cash flow. These measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Alternative performance measures are not subject to GAAP or any other generally accepted accounting principle. Other companies may define these terms in different ways.
About Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Adjusted Instone EBITDA)
Capstone uses non-GAAP Adjusted Instone EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement of operations, balance sheet or statement of cash flows of a company. Adjusted Instone EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), operating income (loss), or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or a measure of our liquidity.
We believe that Adjusted Instone EBITDA is a useful performance measure and is used by us to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period-to-period and to provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than measures under GAAP can provide alone. We define "Adjusted Instone EBITDA" as earnings (loss) before interest expense, any income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, management fees incurred by Instone payable to Capstone and Brookstone, Instone board fees, share-based compensation, change in fair value of contingent consideration, and transaction costs.
