Beazer Homes Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2026 Results
ATLANTA–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Beazer Homes USA, Inc. (NYSE: BZH) (www.beazer.com) today announced its financial results for the three and six months ended March 31, 2026.
“Second quarter results reflected a positive start to the spring selling season, with results generally in line with our expectations,” said Allan P. Merrill, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “However, geopolitical events triggered a rapid rise in mortgage rates and gas prices in March, impacting consumer sentiment. As a result, we are more cautious about near-term demand.”
“Despite these uncertainties, we still have visibility into our second half margin improvement catalysts. Construction cost reductions, favorable community and to-be-built mix shifts, and increasing contributions from our newest communities continue to materialize. Macroeconomic headwinds and affordability challenges persist, but we have high conviction in our differentiated strategy and the underlying value of our assets, so we accelerated our share repurchases during the second quarter, spending another $30 million on buybacks.”
Speaking to Beazer’s Multi-Year Goals, Mr. Merrill said, “We continue to work toward our fiscal 2027 goals for community count, deleveraging, and book value per share growth. While the industry cycle and global events present near-term challenges, we continue to execute our product strategy, focus on margin expansion, and prudently manage the balance sheet and allocate capital, which together position Beazer for improved returns.”

The following provides additional details on the Company’s performance during the fiscal second quarter 2026:
Profitability. Net loss was $0.9 million, generating diluted loss per share of $0.03. Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA was $2.6 million compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $38.8 million a year ago. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to lower closings and lower gross margin.
Orders. Net new orders for the second quarter decreased to 1,048, down 4.6% from 1,098 in the prior year quarter, driven by a 7.2% decrease in sales pace to 2.1 orders per community per month from 2.3 in the prior year quarter, partially offset by a 2.9% increase in average community count to 167 from 163 a year ago. The cancellation rate for the quarter was 13.5%, down from 16.9% in the prior year quarter.
Backlog. The dollar value of homes in backlog as of March 31, 2026 was $756.1 million, representing 1,299 homes, compared to $831.5 million, representing 1,526 homes, at the same time last year. The ASP of homes in backlog was $582.1 thousand, up 6.8% versus the prior year quarter. The increase in backlog ASP was primarily due to changes in product and community mix.
Homebuilding Revenue. Second quarter homebuilding revenue was $397.7 million, down 28.5% year-over-year. The decrease in homebuilding revenue was driven by a 29.8% decrease in home closings to 757 homes, partially offset by a 2.0% increase in ASP to $525.4 thousand. The decrease in closings was primarily due to lower beginning backlog, partially offset by improved construction cycle times compared to the prior year quarter.
Homebuilding Gross Margin. Homebuilding gross margin was 12.0%, down 310 basis points compared to a year ago. Excluding impairments, abandonments and amortized interest, homebuilding gross margin was 15.6% for the second quarter, down from 18.3% in the prior year quarter primarily due to an increase in price concessions and closing cost incentives, and changes in product and community mix.
SG&A Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue was 15.5% for the quarter, up 350 basis points year-over-year primarily due to lower homebuilding revenue. SG&A expense was $63.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, down 6.5% compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to lower commissions.
Income Taxes. Income tax benefit for the second quarter was $17.6 million compared to income tax expense of $1.4 million in the prior year quarter. The Company’s effective tax rate for the current fiscal quarter was impacted by a change in the approach used to calculate the interim income tax provision, reducing comparability with the prior year quarter. Refer to Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements within the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 for additional details.
Land Position. During the second quarter, land acquisition and land development spending was $187.0 million, down 5.1% year-over-year. Controlled lots decreased 12.3% to 24,824, compared to 28,290 from the prior year quarter. Excluding land held for future development and land held for sale lots, active lots controlled were 23,619, down 14.2% year-over-year, as the Company manages land spend and lot position to improve capital efficiency and support future community count growth. As of March 31, 2026, the Company controlled 59.9% of its total active lots through option agreements compared to 59.3% as of March 31, 2025.
Liquidity. At the close of the second quarter, the Company had $401.1 million of available liquidity, including $116.4 million of unrestricted cash and $284.7 million of remaining capacity under the unsecured revolving credit facility, compared to total available liquidity of $377.7 million a year ago.
Senior Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility. During March 2026, the Company increased the available borrowing capacity under the Senior Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility from $365.0 million to $525.0 million and extended the maturity date to March 2030.
Share Repurchases. During the second quarter, the Company repurchased 1.2 million shares of its outstanding common stock for an aggregate $30.0 million at an average price per share of $25.54.
Commitment to Sustainability
During the second fiscal quarter, Beazer Homes received four RESNET awards recognizing its leadership in energy efficiency and home performance. RESNET, a national nonprofit standards organization, oversees the Home Energy Rating System (HERS) Index and the accreditation framework used to evaluate residential energy performance. These honors included the RESNET President’s Awards for both the North and South regions, recognizing the achievement of low HERS scores in their respective regions. The Company also received the Net Zero Production Builder and the Lowest HERS Score Production Builder awards, reflecting the lowest average HERS Index score among qualifying builders. Together, these awards underscore Beazer Homes’ continued focus on delivering high‑performance, energy‑efficient homes that help customers reduce energy costs.
In addition, the Company earned the 2026 Top Workplaces USA award for the fourth consecutive year. Participating companies are evaluated based on anonymous employee feedback from a research-based survey, benchmarked against peer organizations of similar size and scored across 15 Culture Drivers associated with high performance.
Since 2017, Beazer Homes, through the Beazer Charity Foundation and with the support of its employees and trade partners, has helped raise more than $10 million in cumulative donations to the Fisher House Foundation, a nonprofit that provides free housing for military service members, veterans, and their families while receiving medical care. Beyond this long-standing partnership, Beazer employees support a wide range of local initiatives focused on housing, health, youth development, and community services. Reflecting this commitment, the Company held its nationwide Day of Service for the second consecutive year, engaging nearly all employees to contribute 3,589 volunteer hours across 72 locations in support of local nonprofit organizations.

This press release contains forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements represent our expectations or beliefs concerning future events, and it is possible that the results described in this press release will not be achieved. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside of our control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements, including, among other things:
- macroeconomic uncertainty, including high levels of inflation, elevated interest rates and insurance costs, stock market volatility, enhanced and/or altered government regulation resulting from legislation and/or executive orders, and historic changes in U.S. trade policy, negatively impacting consumer sentiment and softening demand for the homes we sell;
- elevated mortgage interest rates for prolonged periods, as well as further increases to, and reduced availability of, mortgage financing;
- supply chain challenges (including as a result of U.S. trade policies and retaliatory responses from other countries) negatively impacting our homebuilding production, including shortages of raw materials and other critical components such as windows, doors, and appliances;
- our ability to meet or achieve our sustainability related goals, aspirations, initiatives, and our public statements and disclosures regarding them;
- geopolitical disruptions, acts of war, terrorist attacks and other geopolitical developments outside the Company’s control, including the ongoing military conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East, which have heightened, and may continue to heighten, existing economic uncertainty and contribute to increases in mortgage rates, higher energy prices, and other adverse macroeconomic pressures;
- inaccurate estimates related to homes to be delivered in the future (backlog), as they are subject to various cancellation risks that cannot be fully controlled;
- factors affecting margins, such as adjustments to home pricing, increased sales incentives and mortgage rate buy down programs in order to remain competitive;
- decreased revenues;
- decreased land values underlying land option agreements;
- increased land development costs in communities under development or delays or difficulties in implementing initiatives to reduce our cycle times and production and overhead cost structures;
- not being able to pass on cost increases (including cost increases due to increasing the energy efficiency of our homes) through pricing increases;
- the availability and cost of land and the risks associated with the future value of our inventory, including impairments and abandonment charges;
- our ability to raise debt and/or equity capital, due to factors such as limitations in the capital markets (including market volatility), adverse credit market conditions and financial institution disruptions, and our ability to otherwise meet our ongoing liquidity needs (which could cause us to fail to meet the terms of our covenants and other requirements under our various debt instruments and therefore trigger an acceleration of a significant portion or all of our outstanding debt obligations), including the impact of any downgrades of our credit ratings or reduction in our liquidity levels;
- market perceptions regarding any capital raising initiatives we may undertake (including future issuances of equity or debt capital);
- inefficient or ineffective allocation of capital, including with respect to planned share repurchases;
- market conditions and other factors outside our control that adversely impact our ability to execute on our planned share repurchases or asset sales;
- changes in tax laws, such as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), or otherwise regarding the deductibility of mortgage interest expenses and real estate taxes, including those resulting from regulatory guidance and interpretations issued with respect thereto, such as the IRS’s guidance regarding heightened qualification requirements for federal credits for building energy-efficient homes;
- increased competition or delays in reacting to changing consumer preferences in home design;
- natural disasters, severe weather, or other related events that could result in delays in land development or home construction, increase our costs or decrease demand in the impacted areas;
- shortages of or increased costs for labor used in housing production, including as a result of federal or state legislation, and/or enforcement, and the level of quality and craftsmanship provided by such labor;
- the potential recoverability of our deferred tax assets;
- potential delays or increased costs in obtaining necessary permits as a result of changes to, or complying with, laws, regulations or governmental policies, and possible penalties for failure to comply with such laws, regulations or governmental policies, including those related to the environment;
- the results of litigation or government proceedings and fulfillment of any related obligations;
- the impact of construction defect and home warranty claims;
- the cost and availability of insurance and surety bonds, as well as the sufficiency of these instruments to cover potential losses incurred;
- the impact of information technology failures, cybersecurity issues or data security breaches, including cybersecurity incidents deploying evolving artificial intelligence tools and incidents impacting third-party service providers that we depend on to conduct our business;
- the impact of governmental regulations on homebuilding in key markets, such as regulations limiting the availability of water and electricity (including availability of electrical equipment such as transformers and meters); and
- the success of our sustainability initiatives, as well as the success of any other related partnerships or pilot programs we may enter into in order to increase the energy efficiency of our homes.
Any forward-looking statement, including any statement expressing confidence regarding future outcomes, speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Reconciliation of homebuilding gross profit and homebuilding gross margin (GAAP measures) to homebuilding gross profit and the related gross margin excluding impairments and abandonments and interest amortized to cost of sales (non-GAAP measures) is provided for each period discussed below. Management believes that this information assists investors in comparing the operating characteristics of homebuilding activities by eliminating many of the differences in companies’ respective level of impairments and level of debt. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliation of Net (Loss) Income (GAAP measure) to Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP measure) is provided for each period discussed below. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA assists investors in understanding and comparing core operating results and underlying business trends by eliminating many of the differences in companies’ respective capitalization, tax position, level of impairments, and other non-recurring items. This non-GAAP financial measure may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

In periods during which we impaired certain of our inventory assets, capitalized interest that is impaired is included in the line above titled “Interest amortized to home construction and land sales expenses and capitalized interest impaired.” |
Reconciliation of total debt to total capitalization ratio (GAAP measure) to net debt to net capitalization ratio (non-GAAP measure) is provided for each period below. Management believes that net debt to net capitalization ratio is useful in understanding the leverage employed in our operations and as an indicator of our ability to obtain financing. This non-GAAP financial measure may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
