Description: BLDR Builders FirstSource January 02, 2026
Builders FirstSource (BLDR) manufactures and distributes a broad portfolio of building-material products-including trusses, wall panels, doors, millwork, siding, and lumber-as well as turn-key framing and design-software services for professional homebuilders, remodelers, and light-commercial contractors across the United States.
In FY 2023 the company reported revenue of roughly **$5.9 billion**, an operating margin of **~6 %**, and a **3.2 %** same-store sales increase, reflecting steady demand despite elevated mortgage rates. The balance sheet remains solid, with a debt-to-EBITDA ratio near **3.5×**, giving the firm flexibility to fund its ongoing acquisition strategy.
Key economic drivers for BLDR are U.S. housing-starts trends (which fell 6 % YoY in Q4 2023) and the prevailing cost of financing; lower starts depress volume, while higher rates pressure builder margins and may shift demand toward cost-effective, pre-engineered solutions that BLDR offers. Additionally, supply-chain normalization for lumber and engineered wood products is expected to improve gross margins in 2024.
