Recent Updates on MTH stock

Recent developments for Meritage Homes have highlighted a strong 2024 performance, with record-breaking home deliveries and revenue, despite facing market challenges such as rising lot costs and decreased average sales prices. The company reported a 12% decrease in net earnings for Q4, attributed to lower margins and extended development cycle times, which impacted profitability. Strategic expansions, like the acquisition of Elliott Homes, and a 2-for-1 stock split have supported growth and shareholder value. Analysts have adjusted price targets due to these market conditions and company strategies, including the stock split and ongoing challenges in homebuilding, but maintain a generally positive outlook on Meritage’s ability to sustain growth amidst market pressures.
