Builders FirstSource (BLDR) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Builders FirstSource (BLDR) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Builders FirstSource Inc. has demonstrated resilience in its financial performance, as evidenced by better-than-expected results in the third quarter of 2025 and a modest increase in the full-year outlook, indicating stability in gross margins. The company benefits from a favorable inflationary environment, which historically enhances sales and profitability for distributors in the building materials industry. Additionally, the potential for a stronger multi-family housing market suggests an estimated 15%-20% demand growth for Builders FirstSource's multi-family segment in 2026, further supporting a positive long-term outlook.
Bears say
The financial analysis of Builders FirstSource indicates a negative outlook primarily due to anticipated declines in core organic sales and the company's inability to achieve growth in a challenging market environment. The report highlights a projected 20% year-over-year drop in core organic sales, reflecting tough comparisons from the previous year and conditions that could further suppress demand, particularly if new home demand weakens. Additionally, the company is expected to end 2025 with net leverage at 2.4x TTM EBITDA, slightly above its target, raising concerns about financial stability given the forecast of declining free cash flow and the effects of a sluggish single-family housing market.
