54、ths of our currentoperating subsidiary and the strategic opportunities available in the building products distribution and manufacturing industry.Our strategy has the following characteristics:Deep Team.Capstone is controlled by Brookstone Partners,a private equity group with 25 years of deep expert
55、ise inbuilding products investment.Brookstone Partners is controlled by Matthew Lipman,our chief executive officer and amember of our board of directors,and Michael Toporek,the chairman of our board.The Capstone leadership teamincludes seasoned operating executives and building products acquisition
56、and investment professionals.Capstonesleadership team includes its Lead Independent Director,Charles“Chuck”Dana.Mr.Dana spent 19 years at OwensCorning,a leading building materials company.At Owens Corning,Mr.Dana held various positions including Controller,President Global Composites and then Group
57、President Building Materials.In addition,from the Companys acquisition ofInstone in April 2020 through December 31,2024,Instones revenues have increased from approximately$32.2 million toapproximately$44.9 million.In February 2008,a Brookstone Partners affiliate invested$8.8 million in WoodcraftersH
58、ome Products Holdings LLC.Brookstones team worked with Woodcrafters management to grow earnings andBrookstone completed the sale of all of its interests in Woodcrafters for$32 million in December 2013.The ability toidentify,acquire and integrate acquisition candidates is a critical skill set to augm
59、ent the operating expertise that drivesorganic growth.The current operating company has successfully executed multiple acquisitions and integrations,laying asolid foundation for continued expansion.Strategic Timing.We believe we are strategically positioned to capitalize on market conditions within
60、the buildingproducts sector.Historically,acquiring companies at interest rate peaks has yielded strong returns,and we are poised toleverage these strategic investment opportunities as the market evolves.Industry Dynamics.According to the Bain&Company Global M&A Report published in 2024(the“Bain Repo
61、rt”),thisis“just the type of environment that has proved to offer opportunities to companies that are willing to make bold moves.”The Bain Report goes on to say,“building products companies that make frequent and material acquisitions substantiallyoutpace inactive companies in total shareholder retu
62、rns,9.6%vs 2.7%”and“the most successful companies will pursuescope M&A to build product,geography,and capability adjacencies.”The M&A environment for the building products sector is expected to improve because,according to the Bain Report,“there are ample one-off opportunities to acquire struggling
63、assets”,and“financial investors have taken a step back,especially in North America,removing a potentially formidable layer of competition.”Scale.For scale M&A,opportunities in core businesses allow for more operational synergies.The Bain Report states that“allowing management to focus on a more rela
64、ted group of products with some level of shared channels,end markets,ormanufacturing processes helps focus efforts and tells a clearer equity story.”Scope.Given macroeconomic uncertainty,companies who leverage their parenting advantage,the ability to effectivelymanage and integrate acquisitions,will
65、 be the most successful with regards to scope M&A.The Bain Report states that“the path to leadership generally means overlooking smaller assets in favor of bigger players for a first move in a newspace.”2025/6/10 09:37sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/887151/000121390025052677/ea0245084-s1a1_capstone.htmh

68、n&Company.The Bain Report ispublicly available via the Insight-Featured Topics portion of Bain&Companys website.Strategic Positioning.We believe we are strategically well-positioned to take advantage of the current marketopportunities because of:Team strength.The industry experience of the Board and
69、 Instone management provides the Company with the expertise toevaluate,acquire,and integrate acquisitions.Experience integrating acquisitions.Since 2006,the Company has successfully integrated four acquisitions.The teambelieves the Company has the resources and expertise to continue to integrate acq
70、uisitions successfully.Geographic distribution footprint of Instone.The current service area of the Company,which includes 31 states(with suchstates having over 60%of American households),provides a good basis on which to make both“scale”and“scope”acquisitions.Growth Premium.As Capstone continues to
71、 scale,growing its EBITDA,we anticipate benefiting from valuationpremiums associated with increased size.This growth,coupled with consistent earnings performance,is expected to drivesubstantial shareholder value and enhance our market positioning.Our current operating company,Instone,intends to driv
72、e sustainable growth,expands its geographic presence in thebuilding products industry,and delivers superior value to its customers,shareholders,and other stakeholders.We expect towork with Instone to achieve this through the following strategic pillars:Expand Market Presence.We are committed to expa
73、nding our geographic footprint,increasing penetration in existingmarkets,and entering new,underserved regions.Our sales and marketing team continues to seek new opportunities toonboard customers in markets we are not currently servicing.In 2024,we onboarded customers in 6 new states,which areinclude
74、d in our distribution network of 31 states.We will achieve this through both organic growth and strategicacquisitions that complement our existing business and provide opportunities to broaden our product offerings andcustomer base.Enhance Product Portfolio.We continuously strive to expand and diver
75、sify our product offerings to meet the evolvingneeds of our customers.This includes introducing new textures,colors,and materials within our stone product lines,aswell as expanding into adjacent building products and stone substitutes.By broadening our portfolio,we aim to increaseour share of wallet
76、 with existing customers and attract new customers.Operational Excellence.We are focused on optimizing our operations to improve efficiency,reduce costs,and enhancecustomer satisfaction.This involves investing in advanced technologies,streamlining our supply chain,and implementingbest practices acro
77、ss all aspects of our business.Operational excellence is key to maintaining our competitive edge andensuring long-term profitability.Customer-Centric Approach.Our customers are at the heart of everything we do.We are committed to building strong,long-lasting relationships by providing high-quality p
78、roducts,exceptional service,and expert support.Our goal is to be thepreferred partner for our customers,helping them succeed in their projects and achieve their business objectives.Innovation.We recognize the importance of innovation in the building products sector and prioritize it,continuallyseeki
79、ng new ways to improve our products,processes,and services to stay ahead of industry trends and meet the demandsof a changing market.The most recent example is our introduction of the Toro family of manufactured stone products.We used our 30 years of market knowledge to formulate a product offering
80、that is well thought out to meet the needs ofend use customers and distributors.We painstakingly designed each color family.We honed in on key manufacturing stepsto drive quality and consistency then thoughtfully designed packaging to meet the needs of distributors.The end result wasa set of product
81、s that competes with high-end alternatives in the sector on aesthetics,but for a better value.We expectToro to help drive significant organic revenue growth in the next three years.32025/6/10 09:37sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/887151/000121390025052677/ea0245084-s1a1_capstone.htmhttps:/www.sec.gov/Arc

119、ng Growth and Smaller Reporting Company We are an“emerging growth company”as defined in Section 2(a)(19)of the Securities Act of 1933,as amended(the“SecuritiesAct”),as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012(the“JOBS Act”).As an emerging growth company,weare eligible to take adva
120、ntage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other publiccompanies that are not emerging growth companies,including,but not limited to:(1)presenting only two years of auditedfinancial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial stateme
121、nts with correspondingly reduced“Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”disclosure in this prospectus;(2)notbeing required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002(the“Sarbanes-Oxley Act”);(3)ha
122、ving reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation;(4)being exempt from therequirements to hold a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation or to seek stockholder approval of any goldenparachute payments not previously approved;and(5)not being required to adopt certain ac
123、counting standards applicable topublic companies until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies.Although we are still evaluating our options under the JOBS Act,we may take advantage of some or all of the reducedregulatory and reporting obligations that will be available to us so lo
124、ng as we qualify as an“emerging growth company,”andthus the level of information we provide may be different than that of other public companies.If we do take advantage of any ofthese exemptions,some investors may find our securities less attractive,which could result in a less active trading market
125、 for ourCommon Stock,and the price of our Common Stock may be more volatile.As an“emerging growth company”under the JOBSAct,we are permitted to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies untilsuch pronouncements are made applicable to private compan
126、ies.We do not intend to take advantage of this extended transition period,which means that the financial statements included in thisprospectus,as well as any financial statements that we file in the future,will be subject to all new or revised accountingstandards generally applicable to public compa
127、nies.The decision not to take advantage of the extended transition period isirrevocable.We could remain an“emerging growth company”until the earliest to occur of:(1)the end of the fiscal year following the fifthanniversary of this offering;(2)the first fiscal year after our annual gross revenues are
128、$1.235 billion or more;(3)the date onwhich we have,during the previous three-year period,issued more than$1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities;or(4)thedate on which we are deemed to be a“large accelerated filer”under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,as amended(the“Exchange Act”).We have
129、 taken advantage of reduced disclosure regarding executive compensation arrangements and thepresentation of certain historical financial information in this prospectus,and we may choose to take advantage of some but notall of these reduced disclosure obligations in future filings.If we do,the inform
130、ation that we provide to our stockholders may bedifferent from what you might get from other public companies in which you hold stock.We are also a smaller reporting company,as defined in the Exchange Act.Even after we no longer qualify as an emerginggrowth company,we may still qualify as a smaller
131、reporting company,which would allow us to continue taking advantage ofmany of the same exemptions from disclosure requirements,including reduced disclosure obligations regarding executivecompensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements.In addition,for so long as we continue to qualify as a
132、non-accelerated filer,we will not be required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b)of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.Corporate Information2025/6/10 09:37sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/887151/000121390025052677/ea0245084-s1a1_capstone.htmhttps:/www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/887

143、 could cause the trading price of our securities to decline,and you may lose all or part of your investment.Additional risks that we do not yet know of or that we currently think areimmaterial may also affect our business and results of operations.Risks related to this offering It is not possible to
144、 predict the actual number of shares we will sell under the Purchase Agreement,or the actual gross proceedsresulting from those sales.We may not have access to the full amount available under the Purchase Agreement with the sellingstockholder.On May 14,2025,we entered into the Purchase Agreement wit
145、h the selling stockholder,pursuant to which the selling stockholdercommitted to purchase up to$20.0 million in shares of our Common Stock,subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth inthe Purchase Agreement.The shares of our Common Stock that may be issued under the Purchase Agreement ma
146、y be sold by us to the selling stockholder atour discretion from time to time over an approximately 24-month period commencing on the effective date of the registrationstatement of which this prospectus forms a part,provided that one or more registration statements covering the resale of shares ofCo
147、mmon Stock that have been and may be issued under the Purchase Agreement is declared effective by the SEC,a finalprospectus in connection therewith is filed,and the other conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement are satisfied.We generallyhave the right to control the timing and amount of any s

150、reunder.Because the purchase price per share to be paid by the selling stockholder for the shares of our Common Stock that we may elect tosell to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement will fluctuate based on the market prices of our Common Stock duringthe applicable Purchase Valuation
151、 Period for each purchase,it is not possible for us to predict,as of the date of this prospectus,thenumber of shares of our Common Stock that we will sell to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement,the purchaseprice per share that the selling stockholder will pay for shares purchased fr
152、om us under the Purchase Agreement,or the aggregategross proceeds that we will receive from those purchases by the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement.Although the Purchase Agreement provide that we may sell up to an aggregate of$20.0 million of our Common Stock to theselling stockholde
153、r,only 5,190,251 shares of our Common Stock are being registered for resale by the selling stockholder under theregistration statement of which this prospectus forms a part,which represents the Commitment Shares and 4,975,197 shares of ourCommon Stock that may be issued to the selling stockholder un
154、der the Purchase Agreement.If we elect to sell to the selling stockholder all of the 4,975,197 shares,which reflects the number of shares registered hereunderexcluding the Commitment Shares,in the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part,the actual gross proceedsfrom the sale of
155、all such shares may be substantially less than the$20.0 million total commitment originally available to us underthe Purchase Agreement,which could materially adversely affect our liquidity.If it becomes necessary for us to issue and sell to the selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement more
156、than the 4,975,197shares,which reflects the number of shares registered hereunder excluding the Commitment Shares,being registered for resaleunder the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part in order to receive aggregate gross proceeds equal to the totalcommitment of an aggregat

162、y issuance and sale by us under the Purchase Agreement of a substantial amount of shares of our Common Stock in addition tothe 5,190,251 shares being registered for resale by the selling stockholder under the registration statement of which this prospectusforms a part could cause additional substant
163、ial dilution to our stockholders.The number of shares of our Common Stock ultimatelyoffered for resale by the selling stockholder is dependent upon the number of shares of our Common Stock we ultimately sell to theselling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement.Our inability to access a portion or
164、the full amount available under the Purchase Agreement,in the absence of any other financingsources,could have a material adverse effect on our business.The extent to which we rely on the selling stockholder as a source offunding will depend on a number of factors including the prevailing market pri
165、ce of our Common Stock and the extent to which weare able to secure working capital from other sources.If obtaining sufficient funding from the selling stockholder were to proveunavailable or prohibitively dilutive,we will need to secure another source of funding in order to satisfy our working capi
166、tal needs.Even if we were to receive all$20.0 million in gross proceeds under the Purchase Agreement,we may still need additional capitalto fully implement our business,operating and development plans.Should the financing we require to sustain our working capitalneeds be unavailable or prohibitively
167、 expensive when we require it,the consequences could have a material adverse effect on ourbusiness,operating results,financial condition and prospects.Investors who buy shares at different times will likely pay different prices.Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement,we will have discretion,subject to ma
168、rket demand,to vary the timing,prices,and numbers ofshares sold to the selling stockholder.If and when we do elect to sell shares of our Common Stock to the selling stockholder underthe Purchase Agreement,after the selling stockholder has acquired such shares,the selling stockholder may resell all o
169、r a portion ofsuch shares at any time or from time to time in its discretion and at different prices.As a result,investors who purchase shares fromthe selling stockholder at different times will likely pay different prices for those shares,and so may experience different levels ofdilution and in som
170、e cases substantial dilution and different outcomes in their investment results.Investors may experience adecline in the value of the shares they purchase from the selling stockholder as a result of future sales made by us to the sellingstockholder at prices lower than the prices such investors paid
171、 for their shares.We may require additional financing to sustain our operations and without it we will not be able to continue operations.Subject to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement,as applicable,we may,at our discretion,direct the sellingstockholder to purchase up to an aggregate
172、of up to$20.0 million of our Common Stock under the Purchase Agreement from timeto time over an approximately 24-month period beginning on the effective date of the registration statement of which thisprospectus forms a part,provided that one or more registration statements covering the resale of sh
173、ares of common stock that havebeen and may be issued under the Purchase Agreement are declared effective by the SEC,a final prospectus in connectiontherewith is filed,and the other conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement are satisfied.Although the Purchase Agreementprovides that we may sell u
174、p to an aggregate of$20.0 million of our Common Stock to the selling stockholder,only 4,975,197shares of our Common Stock that we may elect to sell to the selling stockholder m are being registered on the registration statementof which this prospectus forms a part.The purchase price per share for th
175、e shares of our Common Stock that we may elect to sell tothe selling stockholder under the Purchase Agreement will fluctuate based on the market prices of our Common Stock during theapplicable Purchase Valuation Period for each purchase made pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.Accordingly,it is not c
176、urrentlypossible to predict the number of shares that will be sold to the selling stockholder,the actual purchase price per share to be paid bythe selling stockholder for those shares,the actual gross proceeds to be raised in connection with those sales,and whether or not wewill need to register add
177、itional shares for resale by the selling stockholder.The extent to which we rely on the selling stockholder as a source of funding will depend on a number of factors,including theprevailing market price of our Common Stock and the extent to which we are able to secure working capital from other sour
178、ces.Ifobtaining sufficient funding from the selling stockholder were to prove unavailable or prohibitively dilutive,we may need to secureanother source of funding in order to satisfy our working capital needs.Even if we were to sell to the selling stockholder all of theshares of our Common Stock ava

181、nt will have broad discretion as to the use of the proceeds from our sale of Common Stock to the selling stockholderunder the Purchase Agreement,and such uses may not improve our financial condition or market value.We currently intend to use the proceeds from any sales of shares of Common Stock unde
182、r the Purchase Agreement for therepayment of outstanding indebtedness and for general corporate purposes,including working capital.Our management will havebroad discretion in the application of such proceeds,including for any of the purposes described in“Use of Proceeds,”and wecould spend the procee
183、ds from the sale of shares of Common Stock under the Purchase Agreement,if any,in ways ourstockholders may not agree with or that do not yield a favorable return,or for corporate purposes that may not improve ourfinancial condition or advance our business objectives.You will not have the opportunity
184、,as part of your investment decision,toassess whether such proceeds are being used in a manner agreeable to you.You will be relying on the judgment of our managementconcerning these uses and you will not have the opportunity,as part of your investment decision,to assess whether the proceeds arebeing
185、 used appropriately.The failure of our management to apply these funds effectively could result in unfavorable returns anduncertainty about our prospects,each of which could cause the price of our Common Stock to decline.The selling stockholder may choose to sell the shares at prices below the curre
186、nt market price.The selling stockholder is not restricted as to the prices at which it may sell or otherwise dispose of the shares covered by thisprospectus.Sales or other dispositions of the shares below the then-current market prices could adversely affect the market price ofour Common Stock.You m
187、ay experience future dilution as a result of issuance of the shares,future equity offerings by us and other issuances of ourCommon Stock or other securities.In addition,the issuance of the shares and future equity offerings and other issuances of ourCommon Stock or other securities may adversely aff
188、ect our Common Stock price.The shares sold by the selling stockholder will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act.As a result,a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock may be sold in the public market following this offering.If thereare signi
189、ficantly more shares of our Common Stock offered for sale than buyers are willing to purchase,then the market price ofour Common Stock may decline to a market price at which buyers are willing to purchase the offered Common Stock and sellersremain willing to sell our Common Stock.The issuance of the
190、 shares or any future sales of a substantial number of shares of ourCommon Stock in the public market,or the perception that such sales may occur,could also adversely affect the price of ourCommon Stock.We cannot predict the effect,if any,that market sales of those shares of Common Stock or the avai
191、lability of thoseshares for sale will have on the market price of our Common Stock.In addition,in order to raise additional capital,we may in the future offer additional shares of our Common Stock or othersecurities convertible into or exchangeable for our Common Stock at prices that may not be the
192、same as the price per share as priorissuances of Common Stock.We may not be able to sell shares or other securities in any other offering at a price per share that isequal to or greater than the price per share previously paid by investors,and investors purchasing shares or other securities in thefu
193、ture could have rights superior to existing stockholders.The price per share at which we sell additional shares of our commonstock or securities convertible into Common Stock in future transactions may be higher or lower than the prices per sharepreviously paid.In addition,the exercise price of the
194、Warrant may be greater than the price per share previously paid by certaininvestors.You will incur dilution upon exercise of any outstanding stock options,warrants or upon the issuance of shares ofCommon Stock under our stock incentive programs.In addition,the issuance of the shares and any future s
195、ales of a substantialnumber of shares of our Common Stock in the public market,or the perception that such sales may occur,could adversely affectthe price of our Common Stock.We cannot predict the effect,if any,that market sales of those shares of Common Stock or theavailability of those shares for
196、sale will have on the market price of our Common Stock.Future sales and issuances of our common stock under the Purchase Agreement or otherwise,or future sales of othersecurities,might result in significant dilution and could cause the price of our common stock to decline.To raise capital,we may sel
197、l our Common Stock,convertible securities or other equity securities in one or more transactions otherthan those contemplated by the Purchase Agreement,at prices and in a manner we determine from time to time.We may sell sharesor other securities in any other offering at a price per share that is le
