Summary · why it matters

NVR is expected to report lower earnings for the second quarter of 2026, with the Zacks Consensus Estimate for EPS at $95.80, down 11.74% from $108.54 a year ago. Homebuilding revenues, which accounted for 97.8% of total revenues in 2025, are projected to decline 5.5% year over year to $2.41 billion, driven by elevated mortgage rates and affordability challenges that have moderated buyer demand. Total settlements are anticipated to decrease 6.7% to 5,107 units, while new orders are expected to edge up 0.8% to 5,421 units. The homebuilding gross margin is forecast to contract 320 basis points to 18.3%, pressured by higher sales incentives and rising construction costs. NVR carries a Zacks Rank of 3 and an Earnings ESP of 0.00%, indicating no clear signal for an earnings beat.
