The deal marks Berkshire’s largest acquisition since 2020 and signals confidence in the U.S. housing market recovery.
Berkshire Hathaway agreed to acquire homebuilder Taylor Morrison Home Corporation for $8.5 billion in an all-cash transaction. The deal values Taylor Morrison at $72.50 per share, a 24% premium over its May 29 closing price of $58.50.
The transaction, expected to close in the second half of 2026 pending approvals, implies an equity value of $6.8 billion. Taylor Morrison shares will be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange once the deal finalizes.
Taylor Morrison’s existing management team, including CEO Sheryl Palmer, will remain in place. The acquisition reflects Berkshire’s bet on long-term growth in the U.S. housing sector.
