Key Terms

accelerated share repurchase financial
An accelerated share repurchase is a deal where a company hires a bank to buy back a large block of its own stock immediately on the open market, with the bank later settling the exact number of shares over time. For investors it matters because the immediate reduction in shares outstanding can raise per‑share earnings and often supports the stock price, but it also uses company cash or borrowing and can change liquidity and future growth funding.
rule 10b5-1 regulatory
Rule 10b5-1 is a regulation that allows company insiders to buy or sell their shares at predetermined times, even if they have access to non-public information. It acts like setting a schedule in advance for transactions, helping prevent accusations of unfair trading. This rule provides a way for insiders to plan trades transparently, giving investors confidence that these transactions are not based on hidden information.
rule 10b-18 regulatory
Rule 10b-18 is a regulation that sets strict rules for how a company's executives and employees can buy back their own company's stock from the market. It helps ensure that these buybacks happen in a fair and transparent way, reducing the chance of market manipulation. This is important for investors because it offers protection against unfair practices and promotes confidence in the integrity of the stock market.
forward-looking statements regulatory
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.
core based statistical areas technical
A core based statistical area (CBSA) is a U.S. geographic region centered on a population core—either a large city or a smaller town—plus the surrounding communities tied to it by commuting and economic activity. Think of it as a neighborhood plus its commuter belt on a map; investors use CBSAs to compare local demand, labor markets, and growth trends so they can target investments, forecast sales, or assess regional risk more precisely.

IRVING, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Builders FirstSource, Inc. (NYSE: BLDR) announced its Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, which includes the approximately $200 million remaining under its prior April 2025 authorization.

Since the inception of its buyback program in August 2021, the Company has repurchased 102.6 million shares of its common stock, or 49.7% of its total shares outstanding, at an average price of $81.26 per share for a total cost of $8.3 billion, inclusive of applicable fees and taxes. As of April 30, 2026, shares outstanding were 107,559,876.

The timing and amount of any share repurchases under the share repurchase program will be determined by Builders FirstSource in its discretion based on several factors, including ongoing assessments of the capital needs of the business, the market price of Builders FirstSource’s common stock, and general market conditions. Share repurchases under the program may be made through a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, block trades, accelerated share repurchase transactions, or trading plans adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 or Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or any combination of such methods. The program does not obligate Builders FirstSource to acquire any particular amount of its common stock, and the share repurchase program may be modified, suspended or discontinued at any time at the Company’s discretion.
