D.R. Horton Sets October 29 Date for Fiscal 2026 Year-End Earnings Report

The nation’s largest homebuilder by volume, D.R. Horton, Inc., has announced it will report its fiscal 2026 fourth-quarter and full-year results on October 29, 2026, according to a filing distributed via Business Wire.

The release will cap the company’s fiscal year, which for homebuilders typically closes at the end of September. As is customary, the earnings announcement is expected to be followed by a conference call with management, where executives typically discuss order trends, closings, backlog, and the outlook for the coming fiscal year.

Investors will be watching the report against a challenging backdrop for the residential construction industry. Elevated mortgage rates and affordability constraints have pressured demand across the sector, prompting many builders to lean on incentives and rate buydowns to sustain sales pace — dynamics that can weigh on gross margins.

Shares of D.R. Horton closed at $135.55 in recent trading, down 2.43% from the prior close of $138.93, giving the company a market capitalization of roughly $39.9 billion. The stock’s movement reflects broader sensitivity among homebuilder equities to interest-rate expectations and housing data releases.

D.R. Horton builds and sells homes across 126 markets in 36 states, organized into East, North, Southeast, South Central, Southwest, and Northwest operating regions. The company also engages in land acquisition and development, and its scale makes its results a frequently cited barometer for the broader U.S. housing market.

The company’s year-end report typically includes details on full-year revenue, deliveries, return on equity, capital allocation, and share repurchases — items closely tracked by analysts covering the homebuilding sector. Fiscal fourth-quarter results also set the baseline for comparisons when the company issues initial guidance for the new fiscal year.

What to watch

• Fourth-quarter and fiscal year 2026 results, scheduled for release on October 29, 2026, including deliveries, orders, and backlog figures.
• Management commentary on demand conditions, incentives, and margin trends during the accompanying earnings call.
• Initial fiscal 2027 guidance, if provided, covering revenue and closings expectations.
• Capital allocation updates, including any share repurchase activity or dividend announcements.
