High-Flying QXO Erases $36 Billion in Paper Value in Minutes

(New York City) — QXO Inc., a company that had previously been valued at over $90 billion, experienced a significant decline in its stock price on Monday evening, disappointing many investors. Shares of the investment vehicle founded by Brad Jacobs plummeted by 81% to $11.25 in after-market trading. This drop was attributed to the release of millions of shares following the registration of two private placements with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, which created substantial selling pressure.

The stock’s value, which had been based on Jacobs raising approximately $5 billion, fell to around $8.6 billion on a fully diluted basis after the late trading session. While still a premium to its cash value, the company lost approximately $36 billion in paper value compared to the previous day’s closing price.

QXO initially began with a $1 billion investment by Jacobs and his group in Nasdaq-listed SilverSun Technologies Inc. However, plans to spin off the existing business were abandoned, and the company decided to retain its business operations. QXO, positioned as a blank-check vehicle for acquisitions in the building materials distribution industry, has garnered significant funding through private placements priced at $9.14 per share.

The stock experienced a surge earlier this month following a $620 million private placement announcement, which included funding from Jared Kushner’s Affinity Partners. Kushner, the son-in-law of former President Trump, also joined QXO’s board of directors. The recent filing significantly increased the number of available shares from 665,000 to approximately 400 million, with the potential for further expansion due to warrants issued to buyers.

Despite the stock’s steep decline from its peak in June, the impact on investors is likely limited due to the relatively small number of shares available for trading prior to Monday’s filing. Only about 35,000 QXO shares were exchanged daily in the three months leading up to this event.
