PulteGroup(PHM)Q3双miss：EPS 2.53美元低于预期、营收39.7亿美元下滑，盘前跌3.45%

PulteGroup ( PHM ) stock fell as increasing pressure on homebuying demand led to third-quarter earnings miss analyst estimates. Shares were down 3.45% to $109.00 during pre-market trading on Thursday. Diluted earnings per share of $2.53, compared to $2.96 in the third quarter of 2025 and the Visible Alpha consensus of $2.64. Total revenue declined to $3.97B from $4.04B in the same period a year ago, falling short of the consensus of $4.15B. Home sale revenue fell to $3.86B from $4.25B (vs. $4.01B consensus), while land sale and other revenue dipped to $7.79M from $53.17M (vs. $43.85M consensus). The decrease in home sale revenue reflects a 9% decrease in closings to 6,876 homes, in combination with a 1% decrease in the average sales price of homes closed to $561,000. Financial services revenue rose to $107.03M from $103.26M in the year-ago quarter, against the $98.78M consensus. Homebuying demand is increasingly pressured by rising mortgage rates, widespread inflation, and global unrest, according to CEO Ryan Marshall. "The rapid increase in interest rates has stretched affordability even further, made selling an existing home even harder, and has pushed even more consumers to the sidelines," said Marshall. Earnings call is scheduled for 8:30 AM ET today.
