About
Builders FirstSource, Inc. is a Dallas, Texas-based building materials and construction services company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: BLDR) as an S&P 500 Industrials component — supplying framing lumber, engineered wood products (I-joists, LVL, rim board), windows, doors, millwork, cabinetry, manufactured components (pre-built wall panels, roof trusses, floor systems), and contractor services to professional homebuilders through approximately 32,000 employees at 570+ distribution locations across 43 states. Builders FirstSource is the largest US supplier of structural building products and value-added services to homebuilders, created through the 2021 merger of Builders FirstSource and BMC Stock Holdings (previously combined with ProBuild Holdings in 2016) — creating a $17+ billion revenue national building materials supplier with scale advantages versus regional and local lumber yards that homebuilders previously used. In fiscal year 2024, Builders FirstSource reported revenues of approximately $16.4 billion (down from the 2022 peak of $22.7 billion as lumber commodity price normalization and housing starts decline from pandemic peak reduced both price and volume), with value-added products (manufactured components — pre-built wall panels, roof trusses, floor panels) growing as a percentage of sales as homebuilders demand faster framing cycles and reduced on-site labor from their suppliers. CEO Peter Jackson's strategy of expanding value-added services (manufacturing wood-framed wall panels in Builders FirstSource's component manufacturing plants rather than framing on-site) addresses the homebuilder labor shortage — professional framers are the most constrained trade in residential construction, and pre-built components reduce on-site framing labor by 30-50%, enabling homebuilders to complete homes faster with less skilled labor.
