Taylor Morrison Home Corporation and Berkshire Hathaway Inc. jointly announced that they have reached a definitive agreement for Berkshire Hathaway to acquire Taylor Morrison for $72.50 per common share in cash, representing a total equity value for Taylor Morrison of approximately $6.8 billion and total enterprise value of approximately $8.5 billion. The acquisition price represents a 24% premium to Taylor Morrison’s latest closing price of $58.50 on May 29, 2026.

Sheryl Palmer, Taylor Morrison’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Joining Berkshire Hathaway is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to propel Taylor Morrison into its next, and most exciting, chapter, supported by Berkshire’s unmatched capital strength and long-term investment philosophy. This transaction is a testament to the value of Taylor Morrison’s talented team members, trusted brand, community-minded development approach, and diversified portfolio. Over the last 13 years as a public company, we built a track record of strategic growth—expanding our geographic footprint, integrating acquisitions with discipline, and deepening our competitive strengths across procurement, brand, and customer experience. Berkshire Hathaway’s long-term orientation is uniquely well-suited to the multi-year investment cycle of homebuilding, and this combination will allow us to scale the Taylor Morrison platform in ways that would not be possible as a standalone company. I am deeply grateful to our stockholders for the confidence they have placed in Taylor Morrison over the past 13 years, and I could not be more excited about what this next chapter holds for our dedicated team members and partners who make this company extraordinary every day.”

“Berkshire is acquiring a best-in-class national homebuilder, led by an exceptional team and backed by a trusted reputation for customer experience,” said Greg Abel, Berkshire Hathaway’s Chief Executive Officer. “We are excited to welcome Taylor Morrison into Berkshire’s portfolio, reflecting our long-standing commitment to housing, exemplified by Clayton Homes and our other building products businesses. Over time, we expect to unify our site-built homebuilding operations into a combined platform enabling us to deliver the dream of homeownership to more Americans.”

Taylor Morrison is a leading national community developer and homebuilder with over 350 communities concentrated in prime locations across 21 markets in 12 states. The company serves a diverse range of homebuyers in the entry-level, move-up, and resort lifestyle segments under its Taylor Morrison and Esplanade brands and develops rental communities under its Yardly brand. It also provides financial services to its customers, including mortgage, title and escrow, and homeowners’ insurance.
Upon completion of the acquisition, Taylor Morrison will continue to be led by Taylor Morrison’s existing management team, including Chief Executive Officer Sheryl Palmer.

Transaction Details

The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by Taylor Morrison stockholders and receipt of required regulatory approvals. Upon completion of the transaction, Taylor Morrison Home Corporation will become a private company and its common stock will no longer be listed and traded on the NYSE.
Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and Moelis & Company LLC are serving as financial advisors, Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP is serving as legal advisor, and Mayer Brown LLP is serving as financial services regulatory counsel to Taylor Morrison.
