Irving, Texas-based Builders FirstSource, Inc.

Valued at $19.2 billion by market cap, Builders FirstSource serves professional homebuilders, sub-contractors, remodelers, and consumers in the U.S.
The building products giant is set to release its fourth-quarter earnings before the market opens on Thursday, Feb. 20. Ahead of the event, analysts expect Builders FirstSource to report a non-GAAP profit of $2.19 per share, down 38.3% from $3.55 per share reported in the year-ago quarter. While the company has surpassed Wall Street’s earnings projections thrice over the past four quarters, it has missed the estimates on one other occasion. Its adjusted EPS for the last reported quarter declined 27.6% year-over-year to $3.07 missing the consensus estimates by a small margin.
