On July 29, Builders FirstSource fell 5.94% in regular trading, trading at $69.19/share, with turnover of $62.83 million. The decline came as multiple investment banks lowered their target prices ahead of the company's Q2 earnings release scheduled for July 30 pre-market.
Specifically, Stephens cut its target price from $85 to $80, BMO Capital reduced from $93 to $85, and KeyBanc lowered from $100 to $91. Market consensus expects Q2 revenue of approximately $3.92 billion, down 8.36% year-over-year, with adjusted EPS of roughly $1.27, representing a 44.32% decline. The bearish sentiment was compounded by last quarter's earnings miss, where EPS of $0.27 fell significantly short of the $0.37 estimate, reflecting an 82.12% year-over-year decline in profitability.
Within the Building Products sector, the overall tone was broadly negative. Among individual stocks, Lennox down 19.43%, Masco down 11.06%, Modine Manufacturing down 10.16%, Trane Technologies down 3.95%, and Johnson Controls down 2.17%.
