Imperial Capital maintained an In-Line rating on Builders FirstSource (NASDAQ: BLDR) and raised its price target to $4.50 (from $4.25).

"BLDR's 3Q12 posted strong revenue upside to our estimates, reflecting both higher-than-expected housing starts and more favorable market share gains," said Imperial Capital. "However, earnings fell mostly in line as gross margins were hit by lumber cost inflation that could not be fully passed on to customers."

Analysts said they expect the company to continue to benefit from a rebound in residential construction and may turn cash flow positive in 2013.
