Fundamental analysis of Pultegroup Inc

PHM · NYSE · Consumer

Fundamental quality

REASONABLE

66

out of 100

Pultegroup Inc earns a fundamental-quality score of 66 out of 100, profiling it as a company of reasonable quality. Its score rests mainly on its profitability (net margin 11.2%). Its weakest area is its growth (revenue +6.6%/yr). Whether it's cheap or expensive depends on the current price, which you can compute in the tool.

What the company does

PulteGroup is America's third big homebuilder, with a broader menu than its rivals: from the first-time buyer to the retiree moving into a Del Webb 55-plus community. That mix gives it a wealthier average customer, less enslaved to the mortgage.

What will shape its future

  • Its buyer mix: mature customers pay cash and cushion the rate cycle.
  • Mortgage rates, which govern its young buyer as they do the whole sector.
  • Capital discipline: buybacks and a healthy balance sheet after learning from 2008.

The score includes +2 for dividend strength: 8 consecutive years of increases. Keeping that streak demands growing cash generation and balance-sheet discipline.

The score combines growth, profitability and financial strength. Here its profitability weighs in its favor, while its growth drags it down the most.
