KB Home (KBH) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
KB Home is positioned for positive financial performance due to anticipated stronger-than-expected demand, which is expected to drive increased sales volumes and pricing, leading to significant earnings growth. The company's fiscal year 2026 estimated earnings per share (EPS) has been raised by 3%, reflecting the positive impact of aggressive cost management and share buybacks despite lower revenue estimates from orders. Additionally, fiscal year 2025's gross margin estimate has improved to 19.2%, indicating enhanced operational efficiency and profitability relative to previous projections.
Bears say
KB Home is facing significant challenges, as indicated by projected fiscal year 2025 revenues falling to $6.16 billion, representing an 11% year-over-year decline, along with a decrease in closings and average selling prices. Additionally, the company anticipates only a 5% increase in orders for fiscal year 2026, down from previous expectations, reflecting declining consumer demand and worsening affordability in key markets like California, which contributes over one-third of its revenue. Furthermore, rising mortgage rates and increasing land costs are expected to exert margin pressures, combined with limited growth opportunities in core markets, which could hinder the company's overall performance and return profiles.
