2025-01-08
Reason
UBS analyst John Lovallo lowered the firm's price target on Meritage Homes to $118 from $126 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. UBS views the setup for homebuilder stocks in 2025 favorably and believes market sentiment has rapidly shifted towards peak pessimism, which often creates the most attractive buying opportunities for the group, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm believes underlying housing fundamentals remain firmly intact and that the public builders are increasingly well-positioned to gain share from smaller, private competitors. Meritage is the firm's top homebuilder pick in 2025.

Downgrades
$220 → $197
2024-12-13
Reason
JPMorgan downgraded Meritage Homes to Neutral from Overweight with a price target of $197, down from $220. After maintaining a positive homebuilder sector stance over the past two years, the firm is shifting to a "more cautious, less constructive approach" for 2025. JPMorgan anticipates a "significantly" less supportive demand/supply industry backdrop, saying builder fundamentals will likely feature margin and return on equity contraction during the upcoming year. Ina addition, stock valuations remain full, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm adjusted ratings as part of its 2025 outlook. Several key demand drivers for housing - specifically, rates, employment growth and affordability - are not expected to improve significantly in 2025, it contends.
