Lennar beats earnings estimates but misses revenue in Q2 amid housing market challenges.

Lennar reported Q2 adjusted earnings of $1.31 per share, beating the $1.25 estimate, but revenue of $7.94 billion fell short of the $8.02 billion forecast. New home orders dropped 4% year-over-year, while deliveries rose 2%. CEO Stuart Miller cited persistent headwinds like high mortgage rates, affordability issues, and geopolitical uncertainty impacting the housing market.
