CRH has agreed to acquire Dallas-based infrastructure manufacturer Arcosa Inc. in an all-cash transaction valued at approximately $8.5 billion.
Under the agreement, CRH will pay Arcosa shareholders $150 per share. The price represents a 25% premium over Arcosa’s average trading price during the 60 days ending June 18.
The boards of both companies unanimously approved the deal. It is expected to close during the first quarter of 2027, subject to approval from Arcosa shareholders, regulators and other customary closing conditions.
Arcosa produces construction materials and engineered infrastructure products. Its construction business operates 109 quarries and yards, nine asphalt plants and 19 terminals. The company shipped approximately 35 million tons of aggregates in 2025.
Arcosa also manufactures products used in energy transmission infrastructure, a market benefiting from investment in electrical grid modernization, electrification and data center construction.
CRH said the acquisition would strengthen its U.S. aggregates business and expand its presence in growing metropolitan markets, including areas in Texas, Arizona, Florida, New Jersey and Tennessee. The combined company would have more than 265 million tons of annualized aggregates production.
CRH expects the acquisition to generate approximately $175 million in annual cost savings by the third year following completion. The company plans to finance the transaction with available cash and committed debt financing.
Arcosa President and CEO Antonio Carrillo said the transaction recognizes the value created as the company shifted its focus toward construction products and engineered structures.
Arcosa trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker ACA. CRH trades under the ticker CRH.
