Garen Armstrong to Lead Featured Fireside Chat on Construction M&A at AM&AA 2027 Winter Conference
Mindspring Ventures · November 12, 2026
Garen Armstrong Family Office Speaker
Roofing acquirer and builder will share what owners should do now, years before a sale
Owners think selling starts when they call a broker. It doesn’t; it starts with how you run the company today. Clean books. A team that can run without you. Buyers can tell the difference fast.”
— Garen Armstrong, Executive Director of Shamrock Roofing and Construction
KANSAS CITY, FL, UNITED STATES, November 12, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Garen Armstrong, Executive Director of Shamrock Roofing and Construction, will headline the featured Fireside Chat at the Alliance of M&A Advisors (AM&AA) 2027 Winter Conference. The session, “Navigating M&A in the Construction Industry,” takes place Thursday, January 28, 2027, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Most construction companies aren’t sold in a single year. The sale gets shaped by choices the owner made five or ten years earlier. Armstrong’s talk is built around that idea. He comes at it from both sides of the table. He’s an active acquirer in the roofing industry, so he knows what buyers look for. He’s also building and scaling his own construction business with an exit in mind, so he knows what owners are up against. “Owners think selling starts when they call a broker. It doesn’t,” said Armstrong. “It starts with how you run the company today. Clean books. A team that can run without you. Buyers can tell the difference fast.”
The conversation will cover:
What buyers look at first when they evaluate a construction company
The decisions owners make early that raise or lower the value later
How to build a business someone else will want to own
