Meritage Homes Corporation carries $1.91B in total debt against $807.3M in cash reserves — debt is roughly 2.4x the cash position. Managing this leverage effectively will be important for long-term financial stability. The company generates $293.9M in free cash flow annually, which funds everything from R&D to shareholder returns without needing external financing. Return on equity stands at 6.4%, which is modest for the sector. ROE measures how effectively a company uses shareholder capital to generate profits. ROA of 3.4% is on the lower side, which is common in asset-heavy industries. Revenue has been relatively flat, moving from $6.30B (2022) to $5.86B (2025).
