Barclays reiterates an 'Overweight' on D.R. Horton (NYSE: DHI) price target of $22.00.

Analyst, Stephen Kim, said, "Overall we were very encouraged by the strength of DHI's results this quarter but we note that management commentary and guidance were more constrained than Lennar's (NYSE: LEN) was two weeks ago. The company guided for gross margins to be flat to down for the remainder of the year and was unwilling to commit to a range of community count growth. It noted it was not yet seeing broad opportunities to raise prices."

Barclays lowers FY12 EPS estimate from $0.74 to $0.64 and FY13 from $0.90 to $0.78.
