Read MoreHide Full Article
D.R. Horton (DHI - Free Report) closed the most recent trading day at $146.63, moving +1.5% from the previous trading session. This change outpaced the S&P 500's 0.32% gain on the day. On the other hand, the Dow registered a gain of 0.6%, and the technology-centric Nasdaq increased by 0.22%.
The homebuilder's shares have seen a decrease of 6.51% over the last month, not keeping up with the Construction sector's gain of 3.77% and the S&P 500's gain of 4.7%.
Analysts and investors alike will be keeping a close eye on the performance of D.R. Horton in its upcoming earnings disclosure. The company's earnings report is set to go public on January 20, 2026. On that day, D.R. Horton is projected to report earnings of $1.98 per share, which would represent a year-over-year decline of 24.14%. Simultaneously, our latest consensus estimate expects the revenue to be $6.71 billion, showing a 11.83% drop compared to the year-ago quarter.
For the annual period, the Zacks Consensus Estimates anticipate earnings of $11.43 per share and a revenue of $34.3 billion, signifying shifts of -1.21% and +0.15%, respectively, from the last year.
Additionally, investors should keep an eye on any recent revisions to analyst forecasts for D.R Horton. Recent revisions tend to reflect the latest near-term business trends. With this in mind, we can consider positive estimate revisions a sign of optimism about the business outlook.
Our research suggests that these changes in estimates have a direct relationship with upcoming stock price performance. To take advantage of this, we've established the Zacks Rank, an exclusive model that considers these estimated changes and delivers an operational rating system.
The Zacks Rank system, which ranges from #1 (Strong Buy) to #5 (Strong Sell), has an impressive outside-audited track record of outperformance, with #1 stocks generating an average annual return of +25% since 1988.

The PEG ratio bears resemblance to the frequently used P/E ratio, but this parameter also includes the company's expected earnings growth trajectory.
