Berkshire Hathaway has agreed to purchase Taylor Morrison Home in an all-cash deal worth approximately $8.5 billion, with each common share valued at $72.50. This acquisition represents a 24% premium over the company's closing stock price of $58.50 on Friday. The deal highlights Berkshire's ongoing interest in the housing sector, which has been a focus since its acquisition of Clayton Homes in 2003. Berkshire's Chief Executive, Greg Abel, expressed enthusiasm for the acquisition, indicating it will broaden the company's footprint in site-built homes and potentially allow for operational synergies. Taylor Morrison's CEO, Sheryl Palmer, noted that the partnership would provide the homebuilder with essential financial support and a long-term investment perspective that aligns with the lengthy nature of housing development. Founded in 2013, Taylor Morrison operates in 12 U.S. states and will maintain its current management team post-acquisition. The transaction is anticipated to close in the second half of 2026, with Taylor Morrison's shares ceasing to trade on the New York Stock Exchange thereafter. Goldman Sachs and Moelis served as financial advisors for the deal.
