CRH completed its USD 8.5 billion acquisition of Arcosa on October 23, 2026, and Arcosa stock was suspended in Frankfurt. CRH said the transaction had an enterprise value of USD 8.5 billion and would expand its aggregates and infrastructure portfolio.

Deal closes after a weak quarter

The acquisition followed Arcosa's second-quarter results on August 5, 2026. According to MarketBeat, revenue was USD 658.70 million versus USD 687.50 million expected, while earnings per share was USD 1.13 versus a consensus USD 1.18. Revenue fell 10.6 percent from the same quarter a year earlier.

The immediate investor question is what remains of the former standalone equity story. CRH said it will incorporate the acquisition into updated full-year 2026 guidance with its third-quarter results, giving the October reporting date added importance.

What does the deal change?

The chronology is clear. On June 22, 2026, CRH announced an agreement to acquire Arcosa for USD 8.5 billion. On August 5, 2026, Arcosa reported USD 658.70 million in second-quarter revenue and USD 1.13 in earnings per share. On October 23, 2026, CRH announced completion of the USD 8.5 billion transaction, according to CRH.

The next dated events are the third-quarter 2026 results on October 29, 2026, followed by the earnings conference call on October 30, 2026 at 8:30 a.m. ET, both identified in MarketBeat.

Suspension marks the market transition

The German market record shows Arcosa's instrument at EUR 131.00 in Stuttgart at 8:05 a.m. CEST on October 23, 2026, when the security was suspended. FinanzNachrichten also identifies the instrument as Arcosa, Inc., ISIN US0396531008 and ticker EOB.

For investors, the key figure has shifted from Arcosa's standalone earnings to the USD 8.5 billion transaction and CRH's subsequent guidance. The October 29 results will show how the buyer frames the acquired operations after completion.
