D.R. HORTON, INC., AMERICA’S BUILDER, REPORTS FISCAL 2026 FIRST QUARTER EARNINGS AND DECLARES QUARTERLY DIVIDEND OF $0.45 PER SHARE

ARLINGTON, Texas (Business Wire) - January 20, 2026 - D.R. Horton, Inc. (NYSE:DHI), America’s Builder, today reported its first fiscal quarter results. All comparisons in this release are to the respective prior year period, unless noted otherwise.

Fiscal 2026 First Quarter Highlights
As of or for the quarter ended December 31, 2025
Net income attributable to D.R. Horton of $594.8 million or $2.03 per diluted share
Consolidated pre-tax income of $798.1 million, with a pre-tax profit margin of 11.6%
Consolidated revenues of $6.9 billion
Home sales revenues of $6.5 billion on 17,818 homes closed
Net sales orders increased 3% to 18,300 homes with an order value of $6.7 billion
Cash provided by operations totaled $854.0 million
Debt to total capital of 18.8%
Book value per share increased 5% to $82.60
Repurchased 4.4 million shares of common stock for $669.7 million and paid cash dividends of $131.5 million

Consolidated Results
Three months ended December 31, 2025
Net income attributable to D.R. Horton for its first fiscal quarter decreased 30% to $594.8 million, and earnings per diluted share decreased 22% to $2.03. Consolidated pre-tax income totaled $798.1 million on revenues of $6.9 billion, resulting in a pre-tax profit margin of 11.6%. First quarter consolidated pre-tax profit margin and home sales gross margin each include a 40 basis point benefit from the recovery of prior period warranty costs.
Cash provided by operations was $854.0 million during the three months ended December 31, 2025. Total liquidity at quarter end was $6.6 billion, and the Company's debt to total capital ratio was 18.8%. Debt to total capital ratio consists of notes payable divided by stockholders' equity plus notes payable. The Company has $600 million of homebuilding senior notes maturing in the next twelve months.

For the trailing twelve months ended December 31, 2025, the Company's return on equity (ROE) was 13.7% and return on assets (ROA) was 9.4%. ROE is calculated as net income attributable to D.R. Horton for the trailing twelve months divided by average stockholders' equity, where average stockholders' equity is the sum of ending stockholders' equity balances of the trailing five quarters divided by five. ROA is calculated as net income attributable to D.R. Horton for the trailing twelve months divided by average consolidated assets, where average consolidated assets is the sum of total asset balances for the trailing five quarters divided by five.

David Auld, Executive Chairman, said:
“The D.R. Horton team delivered a solid first quarter. We exceeded the high end of our closings and revenue guidance and leveraged our strong financial position and cash flow generation to return $801.2 million to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends during the quarter.

“During the first quarter, our tenured operators continued to execute with discipline while driving a 3% increase in net sales orders. Affordability constraints and cautious consumer sentiment continue to impact new home demand. We expect our sales incentives to remain elevated in fiscal 2026, the extent to which will depend on the strength of demand during the spring, changes in mortgage interest rates and market conditions throughout the year.

“Our strong liquidity, low leverage, experienced operators and national scale provide us with significant financial and operational flexibility. We are well-positioned with our affordable product offerings and flexible lot supply to continue delivering value to our homebuyers and meet market demand. We are maintaining our disciplined approach to capital allocation to enhance the long-term value of D.R. Horton, including consistently returning capital to our shareholders."




Homebuilding
Three months ended December 31, 2025
Homebuilding revenue for the first quarter decreased 9% to $6.5 billion, and homes closed decreased 7% to 17,818 homes. Homebuilding pre-tax income decreased 30% to $708.1 million, and pre-tax profit margin was 10.8%. Net sales orders increased 3% to 18,300 homes with an order value of $6.7 billion. The Company’s cancellation rate (cancelled sales orders divided by gross sales orders) was 18%, consistent with the prior year quarter.

At quarter end, the Company had 30,400 homes in inventory, of which 20,000 were unsold. 7,300 of the Company’s unsold homes were completed, including 900 that had been completed for greater than six months. Of the Company’s homes closed during the first quarter, 67% were on lots developed by Forestar or third parties, up from 65% during the prior year quarter.

The Company’s homebuilding return on inventory (ROI) for the trailing twelve months ended December 31, 2025 was 18.6%. Homebuilding ROI is calculated as homebuilding pre-tax income for the trailing twelve months divided by average inventory, where average inventory is the sum of ending homebuilding inventory balances for the trailing five quarters divided by five.

Non-Homebuilding Segments
Three months ended December 31, 2025
Rental: Rental operations generated revenues of $109.5 million from the sale of 397 single-family rental homes and $0.2 million of pre-tax income, resulting in a pre-tax profit margin of 0.2%.
Forestar: Forestar sold 1,944 lots and generated $273.0 million of revenue and $20.8 million of pre-tax income, resulting in a pre-tax profit margin of 7.6%.
Financial Services: Financial services revenues were $184.6 million with pre-tax income of $58.0 million, resulting in a pre-tax profit margin of 31.4%.

Share Repurchases and Dividends
During the first quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company repurchased 4.4 million shares of common stock for $669.7 million. Common shares outstanding at December 31, 2025 totaled 290.5 million, down 9% from a year ago, and the Company’s remaining stock repurchase authorization was $2.6 billion.

The Company paid cash dividends of $131.5 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2026, and subsequent to quarter end, declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.45 per share payable on February 12, 2026 to stockholders of record on February 5, 2026.
