Stockholders' Equity
Prior to the IPO, Legence Holdings was reorganized to establish the Company’s current UP-C structure, under which Legence Corp., the publicly traded entity, became the sole managing member and consolidates Legence Holdings’ financial results. In connection with the Corporate Reorganization:
•Legence Corp. became the sole managing member of Legence Holdings, providing Legence Corp. with 100% of the voting power of Legence Holdings.
•All outstanding equity interests of Legence Holdings were recapitalized into LGN A Units and LGN B Units. The number of LGN A Units corresponds on a one-for-one basis with shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, while the number of LGN B Units corresponds on a one-for-one basis with shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock. As of December 31, 2025, Legence Corp. and its subsidiaries held 63,856,975 LGN A Units and Legence Parent held 41,479,954 LGN B Units.
•A noncontrolling interest was recognized to reflect the ownership of LGN B Units held by Legence Parent.
Secondary Offering

On December 16, 2025, the Company completed a secondary offering of 8,402,178 shares of Class A Common Stock on behalf of the Parent Entities at a price of $45.00 per share. In connection with the transaction, Legence Parent ML exchanged 5,200,808 issued and outstanding LGN B Units, together with an equal number of corresponding shares of Class B Common Stock, for an equal number of shares of Class A common stock. Additionally, the Parent Entities granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to 1,260,326 additional shares of Class A Common Stock. Subsequent to the year ended December 31, 2025, on January 8, 2026, the underwriters fully exercised the option to purchase 1,260,326 additional shares of Class A Common Stock, of which 780,121 were issued in exchange for LGN B Units, together with an equal number of corresponding shares of Class B Common Stock, held by Legence Parent ML.

As a result of the exchanges, the LGN B Units that were previously classified as noncontrolling interests were converted into LGN A Units held by Legence Corp. and its subsidiaries, thereby increasing the Company’s ownership interest in
Legence Holdings. The Company did not issue or sell any shares of Class A Common Stock in the offering and did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the Parent Entities.
