SEC Form 8-K Excerpt
Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities

On January 14, 2020, the Board of Directors of Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. (the “Company” or “Beacon”) determined to rebrand its exterior product branches with the tradename “Beacon Building Products” (the “Rebranding”). The new name, and a related logo, will be adopted at over 450 Beacon one-step exterior products branches. The Company’s interior, insulation, weatherproofing and two-step branches will continue to operate under current brand names. In connection  with  the  Rebranding,  the  Company  has  determined  that  it  will  incur  non-cash  accelerated  intangible  asset  amortization  of  approximately  $135 million to $140 million related to the write-off of certain tradenames, primarily Allied (exterior products only), Roofing Supply Group and JGA. The accelerated amortization will be recognized in the Company’s fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2020. The physical rebranding of branch locations and equipment is expected to result in cash expenditures of approximately $5 million.
