BofA Securities downgrades NVR to Underperform and cuts price target
Bank of America Securities lowered its rating on NVR Inc. from Buy to Underperform after the homebuilder reported weaker-than-expected third‑quarter 2026 orders and absorption. The firm reduced its price target to $5,900 from $6,725, citing a 10% revenue decline over the past twelve months and a softer near‑term margin outlook. The downgrade comes as NVR’s shares have fallen about 20% over the last year and are down 16% year‑to‑date.
Why it matters
BofA expects NVR to underperform its peers, which may pressure the stock further and influence investors’ valuation assumptions, as reflected in the new $5,900 target (source).
