Heartland Value Plus Fund Andrew J. Fleming | “Century Communities (CCS), a Denver-based builder of single-family homes predominantly in the West, Southwest, Mountain states, and Southeast. High mortgage rates and concerns about home affordability have kept demand for new houses tempered. As a result of the poor sentiment, CCS shares are trading at less than 1X book value—0.81X to be exact. We do not know when demand for housing will pick up or what will happen with interest rates. What we do know is that these historically low valuation levels are attracting patient, long-term capital, resulting in multiple take-outs in the space in the past six months. Berkshire Hathaway, for instance, recently acquired public homebuilder Taylor Morrison at 1.1X book value, and the Japanese conglomerate Sumitomo acquired Tri Pointe Homes for 1.2X book value. We believe this is a sign that near-term pessimism is fully priced into current valuations, and some of these stocks offer considerable long-term value when conditions do improve. Even small improvements in housing demand should provide meaningful upside. In the meantime, CCS continues to hit two of our three capital allocation signals by buying back stock at these discounted valuations while continuing to grow the dividend.” | NEUTRAL | Q2 2026 Jul 17, 2026 | View Pitch |
