Todd Wenning of Ensemble Capital presented his in-depth investment thesis on NVR, Inc. (US: NVR) at Wide-Moat Investing Summit 2023.
Thesis summary:
NVR is mainly known among quality investors for having top-notch capital allocation skills — opportunistic buybacks and a cash-rich, asset-light balance sheet. Homebuilding, however, is generally considered to be a “no moat” industry. Intuitively this makes sense and history seems to show it to be true. As land and labor become scarce and affordability remains a problem, NVR has been able to establish a series of local and regional moats that Todd believes are defensible for the next decade and beyond.
