PulteGroup (PHM) Earnings: Q3 2026 Results and Next Report Date

The quarter ended September 30, 2026 and PulteGroup published the results on October 22, 2026. Revenue and diluted EPS are shown against Q3 2025, the same quarter a year earlier, which takes seasonal swings out of the comparison.

• PulteGroup prints its statements in thousands of dollars. The figures here are converted to millions and rounded to one decimal.
• PulteGroup does not report an adjusted EPS. Q3 2026 home sale gross margin includes $26 million of land impairments, which PulteGroup puts at about 70 basis points.

How PulteGroup splits revenue in its own release, under its own labels, for Q3 2026 against Q3 2025. Indented lines are parts of the line above them.

• PulteGroup's Homebuilding revenue was $3.9 billion in Q3 2026, down 10% from $4.3 billion in Q3 2025, 97% of total revenue.
• PulteGroup's Financial Services revenue was $107 million in Q3 2026, up 4% from $103 million in Q3 2025, 3% of total revenue.

Segment lines are the figures writers cite most often, because they show where the growth in a quarter came from. Companies redraw their segments from time to time and restate the prior year to match, so a year-ago figure here can differ from the one printed a year ago. When that has happened, the note above says so.

Revenue and diluted EPS for the last 5 quarters. Each date links to that quarter's release.

GAAP total revenues and diluted EPS, each as first reported in that quarter's release, converted from thousands to millions. Q4 2025 EPS of $2.56 included a $0.31 charge tied to the intended divestiture of certain manufacturing assets.

PulteGroup's next report is expected around January 28, 2027, a date estimated from its reporting history that the company has not yet confirmed. This page will show Q3 2026 until those results are out and have been checked against the release.

Each quarter keeps its own page with the figures as reported, so a link to one stays pointed at the same numbers after the next report.

• Q3 2026 (this page), reported Oct 22, 2026

PulteGroup's revenue is almost all home sales. Of $3,973.8 million in Q3 2026 total revenues, home sale revenues were $3,859 million and land sale and other revenues under $8 million. The rest, $107 million, came from Financial Services, PulteGroup's mortgage banking, title and insurance agency operations, which arrange mortgages mainly for its own homebuyers. (PulteGroup Q3 2026 earnings release (Form 8-K, Exhibit 99.1), Oct 22, 2026; PulteGroup Form 10-K, 2025, Feb 4, 2026)

Home sale revenues fell 9% because PulteGroup closed fewer homes: 6,876, against 7,529 a year earlier, at an average sales price of $561,000, down 1%. PulteGroup's 10-Q puts the lower closings down to challenging demand conditions, partly offset by a higher community count, and the lower price down to product and geographic mix, elevated sales incentives and efforts to cut spec inventory. The incentives are discounts, closing cost incentives and mortgage interest rate buydowns.

Florida is PulteGroup's largest region by closings, with 1,904 homes in Q3 2026, followed by the Southeast (1,305), Midwest (1,197), West (1,118), Texas (989) and Northeast (363). The West had the largest drop, from 1,359 closings a year earlier. (PulteGroup Q3 2026 earnings release (Form 8-K, Exhibit 99.1), Oct 22, 2026)

PulteGroup sells under the Centex, Pulte Homes, Del Webb, DiVosta Homes and John Wieland Homes and Neighborhoods brands to three buyer groups: first-time, move-up and active adult. CEO Ryan Marshall said more than 60% of the business is now move-up and active-adult buyers. Single-family detached homes were 83% of PulteGroup's closings in 2025, when it closed 29,572 homes.

PulteGroup reports only GAAP EPS. Diluted EPS fell to $2.53 from $2.96 in Q3 2026, on net income of $476 million against $586 million. Home sale gross margin dropped to 24.8% from 26.2%, which PulteGroup's 10-Q attributes to pricing actions, including elevated sales incentives, and higher land acquisition and development costs. The quarter's margin includes $26 million of land impairments, about 70 basis points. SG&A was $397 million, or 10.3% of home sale revenues, against 9.4% a year earlier.

Buybacks cut PulteGroup's share count. Diluted shares were 187,838 thousand, against 198,141 thousand a year earlier. PulteGroup repurchased 2.8 million shares for $350 million in Q3 2026, at an average of $124.70, and 8.4 million shares, or 4% of shares outstanding, for $1.0 billion over nine months. The effective tax rate was 23.9%, against 23.7% a year earlier. (PulteGroup Q3 2026 earnings release (Form 8-K, Exhibit 99.1), Oct 22, 2026; PulteGroup Form 10-Q, Q3 2026, Oct 22, 2026)

Diluted EPS divides net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding in the quarter, plus the shares that options and other equity awards could add. Buybacks shrink that count and lift EPS for the same profit; share issuance and stock awards enlarge it.

PulteGroup's earnings release does not contain a numeric outlook for revenue, closings or EPS. Its 10-Q says PulteGroup expects sales incentives to remain elevated and the pace of house starts to stay dynamic, and expects incentives and higher land costs to keep weighing on gross margins over the near term. (PulteGroup Q3 2026 earnings release (Form 8-K, Exhibit 99.1), Oct 22, 2026; PulteGroup Form 10-Q, Q3 2026, Oct 22, 2026)

PulteGroup ended Q3 2026 with a backlog of 10,298 homes worth $6.4 billion, up from 9,888 homes worth $6.2 billion a year earlier. Net new orders were 6,208 homes, down 6%, with a value of $3.5 billion, and the cancellation rate was 16%, the same as a year earlier.

A consensus figure is the average of the models published by the analysts who cover PulteGroup, collected by a data provider and revised up to the day of the report. A quarter that lands above it says how expectations were set as much as how the business did, and the share price on the day also reflects the guidance and the lines no consensus covers.

The consensus figures on this page are Yahoo Finance's, as pulled on the date shown. Each comes with the number of analysts behind it; the smaller that number, the more one revised estimate can move the average.

The figures below are the ones PulteGroup's own release and filings put weight on for Q3 2026, with the latest reported value for each.

What the quarter means for a holding is a separate question from what it reported. The case for and against owning PHM is on is PHM a buy or a sell?, what analysts expect next is on the PHM forecast, and what the company does is on the PulteGroup (PHM) stock page.

Every number on this page can be traced to a document PulteGroup published. Checking one takes a couple of minutes, and it is worth doing before you quote a figure anywhere.

• The results release is the document linked in the source line above. Companies publish it on their investor relations site at the moment results go out, and it carries the headline tables: revenue, operating income, net income and EPS for the quarter and the year-ago quarter.
• The same release is filed with the SEC as Exhibit 99.1 to a Form 8-K under Item 2.02, usually on the day of the report. The SEC copy does not change after the fact, which makes it the safer thing to link when you cite a number.
• The quarterly report (Form 10-Q) follows within a few weeks and carries the full financial statements, the segment note and management's discussion of what changed. The fourth quarter is covered by the annual report (Form 10-K) instead.
• Restated comparisons are flagged in the notes on this page. When a company redraws its segments or changes how it adjusts EPS, it restates the year-ago column, so the year-ago figure in a new release can differ from the one printed a year ago. This page always uses the comparison in the newer release, because that is the like-for-like one.
