D.R. Horton stock (ISIN US23331A1097) traded at USD 140.34 on the NYSE on September 29, 2026, down 0.83 percent from the previous close. The latest analyst reset puts the housing market's affordability pressure alongside a quarterly earnings beat.
Quarterly earnings beat expectations
According to StockTitan, D.R. Horton reported fiscal Q3 2026 net income attributable to common shareholders of USD 904.9 million and diluted EPS of USD 3.20. The result exceeded the USD 3.02 consensus cited by MarketBeat on September 22, 2026, a USD 0.18 difference.
Revenue reached USD 9.23 billion in fiscal Q3 2026, compared with USD 9.10 billion expected, according to MarketBeat. The same filing summary reported a 13.3 percent pre-tax margin and a 20 percent cancellation rate, showing why demand quality remains central to the valuation.
KBW lowers its price target
MarketBeat reported on September 22, 2026, that Keefe, Bruyette & Woods lowered its D.R. Horton price target from USD 167.00 to USD 160.00 while maintaining a Market Perform rating. The revised target is USD 19.66 above the September 29 intraday price.
Analyst caution is visible in the wider range of estimates. MarketBeat listed a 12-month consensus target of USD 163.83 from 15 analysts, with 10 Hold ratings and five Buy ratings. That spread leaves the earnings beat competing with mortgage affordability and elevated sales incentives.
Results date is set
According to MarketScreener, D.R. Horton will release fiscal Q4 and full-year 2026 results on October 29, 2026, before the market opens. The report will show whether the company can convert its quarterly earnings resilience into a stronger full-year outlook.
