D.R. Horton has done exceptionally well during the pandemic. The company managed to increase its revenue and net profits significantly over the past 12 months. This could be attributed to D.R. Horton's business model that targets a wide demographic of home buyers through its four brands: D.R. Horton, Emerald Homes, Express Homes, and Freedom Homes.
