MADISON, N.J., Nov. 2, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Realogy Holdings Corp. (NYSE: RLGY), the largest full-service residential real estate services company in the United States, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2018, including the following highlights:
- Revenue was $1.68 billion, an increase of $2 million compared with the third quarter of 2017.
- The Company’s combined homesale transaction volume (transaction sides multiplied by average sale price) increased 1% compared with the third quarter of 2017, due to a 1% volume gain at RFG while volume at NRT was flat. For reference, the National Association of Realtors reported a homesale transaction volume increase of 1% in the third quarter of 2018.
- Operating EBITDA was $242 million, a decrease of $16 million compared with the third quarter of 2017. The primary reason for the decline was the absence of the $12 million gain from exiting the PHH Home Loans JV in 2017. (See Table 4a)1
- Net income was $103 million compared to $95 million in the third quarter of 2017. Basic earnings per share was $0.84 compared to $0.70 in the third quarter of 2017 due to share repurchases and a lower corporate tax rate.
- Adjusted net income per share was $0.85 compared with adjusted net income per share of $0.71 in the third quarter of 2017. (See Table 1a)2
- Free Cash Flow for the third quarter of 2018 was $194 million. (See Table 6)3
- In the first nine months of 2018, Realogy returned $336 million of capital to stockholders through share repurchases and dividends.
"This quarter we generated substantial revenue, Operating EBITDA and Free Cash Flow, as well as maintained our market share, all despite the past few months of housing market softness," said Ryan Schneider, Realogy’s chief executive officer and president. "We remain optimistic about the future and continue to invest to drive top and bottom line growth. We are launching two new franchise brands to grow our franchise revenue, enhancing our value to agents with new products and expanding our use of technology and data."
"With our size, scale and healthy balance sheet, we believe we are well-positioned to weather shifts in market conditions as we continue to invest in multiple avenues of growth," said Anthony E. Hull, Realogy’s executive vice president, chief financial officer and treasurer. "We are on track with our cost reductions and continue to return capital to shareholders."
In the third quarter of 2018, RFG and NRT’s 193,600 U.S.-based affiliated independent sales agents helped consumers with approximately 403,000 homesale transaction sides. In aggregate, Realogy achieved homesale transaction volume of approximately $143 billion, an increase of 1% compared with the third quarter of 2017. RFG average homesale price increased 5% and homesale transaction sides decreased 3%. NRT reported an average homesale price increase of 1% and homesale transaction sides decreased 1%.
In the title and settlement services sector, TRG closed 48,000 transactions in the third quarter of 2018 with lower refinance volume leading to an overall decline of 4%. Purchase units were flat compared to the third quarter of 2017. In the relocation segment, Cartus initiations were up 8% and referrals up 10%. Cartus continues to be an important part of the Company’s value proposition, generating highly qualified leads for its network of affiliated agents and helping them to build their businesses. Cartus generated referral opportunities to agents that resulted in approximately 76,000 in-network homesale closings for Realogy and its brands in 2017.
Looking Ahead
For the fourth quarter of 2018, Realogy is overall modeling around flat homesale transaction volume compared to the fourth quarter of 2017. Based on this fourth quarter volume outlook and third quarter results, the Company now anticipates full year Operating EBITDA of $660–$670 million, subject to macro uncertainty and current market conditions.
This year, Realogy expects the Operating EBITDA to Free Cash Flow conversion rate to be in the mid-50% range.
Capital Allocation
Since the share repurchase program’s inception in February 2016, the Company has repurchased approximately 29 million shares through September 30, 2018 at an average price of $26.74 for $776 million. As a result, Realogy had approximately 120 million shares of common stock outstanding as of September 30, 2018.
Balance Sheet
The Company ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $226 million. Total long-term corporate debt, including the short-term portion, net of cash and cash equivalents (net corporate debt), totaled $3.3 billion at September 30, 2018. The Company’s net debt leverage ratio4 was 4.3 times at September 30, 2018.
A consolidated balance sheet is included as Table 2 of this press release.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this press release constitute "forward-looking statements." Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Realogy Holdings Corp. to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Statements preceded by, followed by or that otherwise include the words "believes", "expects", "anticipates", "intends", "projects", "estimates" and "plans" and similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as "will", "should", "would", "may" and "could" are generally forward-looking in nature and not historical facts. Any statements that refer to expectations or other characterizations of future events, circumstances or results are forward-looking statements.
Various factors that could cause actual future results and other future events to differ materially from those estimated by management include, but are not limited to: adverse developments or the absence of sustained improvement in general business, economic and political conditions or the residential real estate markets, either regionally or nationally, including but not limited to a decline or a lack of improvement in the number of homesales, stagnant or declining home prices or a reduction in the affordability of housing, increasing mortgage rates and/or constraints on the availability of mortgage financing, insufficient or excessive home inventory levels by market and price point, a lack of improvement or deceleration in the building of new housing and/or irregular timing or volume of new development closings, the potential negative impact of certain provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on home values over time in states with high property, sales and state and local income taxes or on homeownership rates, and/or a deterioration in other economic factors that particularly impact the residential real estate market and the business segments in which we operate whether broadly or by geography and price segments; increased competition in the industry and for independent sales agents whether through traditional competitors, competitors with alternative business models or other industry participants otherwise competing for a portion of gross commission income; continuing pressure on the share of gross commission income paid by our company owned brokerages and our affiliated franchisees to their independent affiliated sales agents; our geographic and high-end market concentration; our inability to enter into franchise agreements with new franchisees or renew existing franchise agreements at current contractual royalty rates without increasing the amount and prevalence of sales incentives; the lack of revenue growth or declining profitability of our franchisees and company owned brokerage operations; changes in corporate relocation practices resulting in fewer employee relocations, reduced relocation benefits, increasing competition in corporate relocation or the loss of one or more significant affinity clients; an increase in the experienced claims losses of our title underwriter; our failure or alleged failure to comply with laws, regulations and regulatory interpretations; risks relating to our ability to return capital to stockholders pursuant to our stock repurchase program; risks and growing costs related to cybersecurity threats to our data and customer, franchisee, employee and independent sales agent data; and risks associated with our substantial indebtedness and interest obligations and restrictions contained in our debt agreements, including risks relating to having to dedicate a significant portion of our cash flows from operations to service our debt.
Consideration should be given to the areas of risk described above, as well as those risks set forth under the headings "Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2018, June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2018, and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, and our other filings made from time to time, in connection with considering any forward-looking statements that may be made by us and our businesses generally. Except for our ongoing obligations to disclose material information under the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements, to report events or to report the occurrence of unanticipated events unless we are required to do so by law.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined under SEC rules. As required by SEC rules, important information regarding such measures is contained in the Tables attached to this release. See Tables 1a, 7 and 8 for definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures and Tables 1a, 4a, 4b, 5a, 5b, 6 and 7 for reconciliations of the historical non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP terms.
Because of the forward-looking nature of the Company’s forecasted non-GAAP financial measures, specific quantifications of the amounts that would be required to reconcile forecasted Operating EBITDA to forecasted net income and forecasted Free Cash Flow to forecasted net income are not readily determinable. The Company believes that there is a degree of volatility with respect to certain of the Company’s GAAP measures which preclude the Company from providing accurate forecasted GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations. Based on the above, the Company believes that providing estimates of the amounts that would be required to reconcile the range of the non-GAAP measures to forecasted GAAP measures would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors for the reasons identified above.

(In millions, except per share data) |

|
We present Adjusted net income and Adjusted earnings per share because we believe these measures are useful as supplemental measures in evaluating the performance of our operating businesses and provides greater transparency into our operating results. |
|||||||||||||||
|
Adjusted net income is defined by us as net income before: (a) mark-to-market interest rate swap adjustments, whose fair value is subject to movements in LIBOR and the forward yield curve and therefore are subject to significant fluctuations; (b) former parent legacy items, which pertain to liabilities of the former parent for matters prior to mid-2006 and are non-operational in nature; (c) restructuring charges as a result of the business optimization initiatives currently in progress; (d) the loss on the early extinguishment of debt that results from refinancing and deleveraging debt initiatives; (e) the tax effect of the foregoing adjustments; and (f) adjustments to the reserve for uncertain tax positions. The gross amounts for these items as well as the adjustment for income taxes are shown in the table below. |
|||||||||||||||
|
Adjusted income per share is Adjusted net income divided by the weighted average common and common equivalent shares outstanding. |
|||||||||||||||

Net royalty per side amounts include the effect of volume incentives and non-standard incentives granted to franchisees. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 the net royalty per side increased 2% and 4%, respectively, while average homesale price increased 5% and 6% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. The differential between growth in net royalty per side and average homesale price was due to an increase in sales incentives, a decrease in the average broker commission rate and a shift in mix to our top 250 franchisees. |

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION – SENIOR SECURED LEVERAGE RATIO |
|||||||||||||||||||
|
FOR THE TWELVE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018 |
|||||||||||||||||||
|
(In millions) |
|||||||||||||||||||
|
The senior secured leverage ratio is tested quarterly and may not exceed 4.75 to 1.00. The senior secured leverage ratio is measured by dividing Realogy Group LLC’s total senior secured net debt by the trailing twelve-month EBITDA calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, as those terms are defined in the senior secured credit facilities*. Total senior secured net debt does not include unsecured indebtedness, including the Unsecured Notes*, or the securitization obligations. EBITDA calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, as defined in the senior secured credit facilities, includes adjustments to Operating EBITDA for non-cash charges and incremental securitization interest costs, as well as pro forma cost savings for restructuring initiatives, the pro forma effect of business optimization initiatives and the pro forma effect of acquisitions and new franchisees, in each case calculated as of the beginning of the twelve-month period. The Company was in compliance with the senior secured leverage ratio covenant at September 30, 2018 with a ratio of 2.54 to 1.00. |

Non-GAAP Definitions |
Adjusted net income (loss) is defined by us as net income (loss) before mark-to-market interest rate swap adjustments, former parent legacy items, restructuring charges, the loss on the early extinguishment of debt, the tax effect of the foregoing adjustments and adjustments to the reserve for uncertain tax positions. The gross amounts for these items as well as the adjustment for income taxes are presented. Adjusted earnings (loss) per share is Adjusted net income (loss) divided by the weighted average common and common equivalent shares outstanding. We present Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted earnings (loss) per share because we believe these measures are useful as supplemental measures in evaluating the performance of our operating businesses and provides greater transparency into our operating results.
Operating EBITDA is defined by us as net income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net (other than relocation services interest for securitization assets and securitization obligations), income taxes, and other items that are not core to the operating activities of the Company such as restructuring charges, former parent legacy items, losses on the early extinguishment of debt, asset impairments, gains or losses on discontinued operations and gains or losses on the sale of investments or other assets. Operating EBITDA is our primary non-GAAP measure.
We present Operating EBITDA because we believe it is useful as a supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of our operating businesses and provides greater transparency into our results of operations. Our management, including our chief operating decision maker, uses Operating EBITDA as a factor in evaluating the performance of our business. Operating EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or other statement of operations data prepared in accordance with GAAP.
We believe Operating EBITDA facilitates company-to-company operating performance comparisons by backing out potential differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting net interest expense), taxation, the age and book depreciation of facilities (affecting relative depreciation expense) and the amortization of intangibles, as well as other items that are not core to the operating activities of the Company such as restructuring charges, losses on the early extinguishment of debt, former parent legacy items, asset impairments, gains or losses on discontinued operations and gains or losses on the sale of investments or other assets, which may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to operating performance. We further believe that Operating EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies, many of which present an Operating EBITDA measure when reporting their results.
Operating EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider Operating EBITDA either in isolation or as a substitute for analyzing our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
- this measure does not reflect changes in, or cash required for, our working capital needs;
- this measure does not reflect our interest expense (except for interest related to our securitization obligations), or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
- this measure does not reflect our income tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes;
- this measure does not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
- although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often require replacement in the future, and this measure does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and
- other companies may calculate this measure differently so they may not be comparable.
Free Cash Flow is defined as net income (loss) attributable to Realogy before income tax expense (benefit), net of payments, interest expense, net, cash interest payments, depreciation and amortization, capital expenditures, restructuring costs and former parent legacy costs (benefits), net of payments, loss on the early extinguishment of debt, working capital adjustments and relocation receivables (assets), net of change in securitization obligations. We use Free Cash Flow in our internal evaluation of operating effectiveness and decisions regarding the allocation of resources, as well as measuring the Company’s ability to generate cash. Since Free Cash Flow can be viewed as both a performance measure and a cash flow measure, the Company has provided a reconciliation to both net income attributable to Realogy Holdings and net cash provided by operating activities. Free Cash Flow is not defined by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income (loss), net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing and financing activities or other financial data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or liquidity. Free Cash Flow may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
