The Gabelli Dividend Growth Fund Justin Bergner, CFA | “Arcosa Inc. (2.1% of net assets as of June 30, 2026) (ACA – $145.29 – NYSE) provides infrastructure-related products and solutions across its construction products and engineered structures segments. On June 22nd, CRH plc, the world's largest building materials company by revenue, announced an agreement to acquire Arcosa for $150 per share cash. While CRH's offer reflected a modest 10% premium to Arcosa's pre-deal share price, it came on the heels of Arcosa's strong year-to-date stock performance, reflecting data center driven demand for transmission structures and favorable pricing and infrastructure demand for aggregates. Arcosa now offers a good merger arbitrage return (i.e. uncorrelated cash-like return) into the deal close, expected in early 2027.” | BULL | Q2 2026 Aug 14, 2026 | View Pitch |
The Gabelli ABC Fund Mario J. Gabelli, CFA, Willis Brucker | “Arcosa Inc. provides infrastructure-related products and solutions across its construction products and engineered structures segments. The Construction Products segment offers natural and recycled aggregates; specialty materials; and construction site support equipment, namely trench-shoring products. The Engineered Structures segment offers utility structures for electricity transmission and distribution, wind towers, lighting structures, and telecommunication structures. On June 22nd, CRH plc, the world's largest building materials company by revenue, announced an agreement to acquire Arcosa for $150 per share cash. While CRH's offer reflected a modest 10% premium to Arcosa's pre-deal share price, it came on the heels of Arcosa's strong year-to-date stock performance, reflecting data center driven demand for transmission structures and favorable pricing and infrastructure demand for aggregates.

Third Point Partners Daniel S. Loeb | “CRH's recently announced agreement to acquire Arcosa is a significant extension of this strategy and the largest transaction in the company's history. The $8.5 billion acquisition adds approximately 35 million tons of annual aggregates production, taking CRH's U.S. platform above 265 million tons, and provides entry into Dallas–Fort Worth and Phoenix—two attractive markets where CRH previously lacked sufficient aggregates exposure. Arcosa's construction products operations include 109 quarries and approximately 1.3 billion tons of reserves, representing roughly 35 years of reserve life. CRH expects to generate approximately $175 million of annual run-rate synergies through production efficiencies, logistics optimization, procurement and self-supply, with the transaction accretive to earnings, margins and cash flow in its first year following completion.” | NEUTRAL | Q2 2026 Aug 4, 2026 | View Pitch |
