- Wednesday, June 5, 10:00 AM More on Hovnanian (HOV) FQ2: net profit drops to $1.3M from $1.8M last year, which included a $27M one-time gain. FQ2 2013 revenue +24%. Deliveries +18% to 1,424 homes; net contracts +22.2% to $696.1M; contract backlog $1.02B for 2,827 homes, up 34.3% and 23% respectively; contract cancellation rate 16% vs 17% last year.

- Wednesday, April 24, 12:19 PM Meritage Homes (MTH +5.2%) moves higher today on a solid Q1 earnings beat this morning. The number of closed homes for the quarter jumped 17% as closing surged 39% and orders jumped 35%. What's really driving the stock right now is its forecast for FY13. The homebuilder's EPS forecast, based on a 40% increase in closings revenue the rest of the year, puts the midpoint of its profit estimate more than 15% above consensus views - which were already double that from 2012. It now expects to earn between $2.20 - 2.45, versus Street estimates of $2.04. Comment! [Earnings, On the Move]

REGI -4%. 1 Comment [On the Move] - Tuesday, April 16, 11:29 AM Homebuilder stocks aren't taking much encouragement off the bigger number in Housing Starts today, as the underlying data doesn't appear to be strong enough to offset yesterday's drubbing: BZH -0.7%, TMHC -0.2%, HOV -0.2%, DHI +0.9%, KBH +0.5%, PHM +1.6%, LEN +0.9%, TOL +1%. Building materials suppliers on the other hand don't care what kind of homes are being built, and are having a much better day on the news: LII +2.3%, WSO +2%, SHW +3.3%, LPX +3.6%). Comment!
- Monday, April 15, 11:44 AM Homebuilders are taking a hit today on the back of weaker-than-expected housing data: XHB -2.7%, KBH -4.7%, TOL -4.5%, DHI -4.3%, PHM -4.1%, HOV -3.7%, LEN -3.2%, BZH -3.3%. Comment! [On the Move]
- Friday, March 15, 4:38 PM Homebuilder stocks are moving away from trading on the macro news and beginning to trade more on company-specific fundamentals, according to Wells Fargo. While most homebuilder shares have outperformed the S&P 500 over the last twelve months, different patterns are starting to emerge. Performance within the sector is beginning to fragment. Over the last week for example, half of the builders the firm follows outperformed while half underperformed. Similarly over the last month, only 5 of the 12 outperformed. 7 Comments [U.S. Economy]
- Wednesday, March 6, 9:50 AM More on Hovnanian Enterprises (HOV -3.3%) FQ4: net loss narrows to $11.3M from $18.3M last year as revenue jumps 32.9% but comes in below forecasts. Adjusted pretax loss narrows to $20.1M from $34.3M. Deliveries, including unconsolidated joint ventures, +17.4% to 1,188 homes. Backlog +40% to $812.1M.

- Tuesday, January 29, 12:22 PM Shares of Hovnanian Enterprises (HOV +3.5%) get a boost today from an upgrade to Neutral from Compass Point. The firm says HOV's risk profile has declined markedly over the past few quarters and there's room for sustainable profitability in 2014. It cautions, however, that the company will not achieve a positive book value until its DTA is reversed in perhaps 2015-2016, and its equity value remains dependent upon that metric improving.
