Builders FirstSource (BLDR-Q) is the largest supplier of building products for professional builders, with distribution centers across the U.S. The company is consolidating in a fragmented industry and has seen a significant increase in stock value over the past 5 years. Recent performance includes matched revenues, strong EPS, and a near-$1 billion share buyback, but also a cut in full-year sales and adjusted EBITDA guidance. While some experts see potential for growth due to low PE compared to Home Depot and a focus on professional homebuilders, others are cautious about recent comments from Lowes and Home Depot affecting the segment's performance in the future.
