Research Alert: CFRA Lifts Opinion On Shares Of D.r. Horton Inc. To Hold From Sell

-- CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:

Our target price of $168 (up $44) is 14x our FY 27 (Sep.) EPS view, a premium to the 10-year mean of 9.7x, justified by DHI's cash flow/balance sheet, which provides flexibility to continue DHI's dividend and repurchase program. We think expectations have been reset for CY 26, with Q1 CY 26 suggesting that larger players like DHI are taking share from smaller homebuilders, which we see continuing through fiscal year-end. We see DHI winning in the entry-level segment, with its lower average selling prices pairing nicely with incentives that provide consumers attractive propositions amid a stable labor market. We see risks stemming from developments in stick and brick costs, which so far have served as an offset to land costs. With lingering geopolitical uncertainty and a P/BV of 1.8x, slightly ahead of the 10-year mean of 1.7x, we see upside remaining limited but see DHI's order book as relatively resilient in coming quarters. We lift our FY 26 EPS to $10.55 from $9.93 and FY 27 EPS to $12.03 from $11.65.
