First Quarter 2025 Highlights

  • Generated Revenue of $1.2 billion, an increase of $78 million year-over-year.
  • Reported Net Loss of $78 million, an improvement of $23 million year-over-year. Adjusted Net Loss of $64 million improved $21 million versus first quarter of 2024 (See Table 1a).
  • Operating EBITDA loss of $1 million, a $12 million improvement year-over-year (See Table 5).

The Company’s closed transaction volume increase outperformed the 3% year-over-year market volume growth reported by the National Association of Realtors (NAR) in the quarter. This market share gain in the quarter was driven by luxury success and differential growth in California and New York City.

  • Welcomed 11 new US franchisees and added two new international expansions to our high-margin franchise network in the first quarter of 2025.
  • Agent commission splits of 80.4% in the first quarter increased 39 basis points year-over-year. It is the 12th straight quarter of commission splits at approximately 80%.
  • Realized cost savings of $14 million in the first quarter of 2025 and on track to deliver $100 million for full year 2025.
  • Free Cash Flow of negative $130 million, reflecting seasonal use of cash for the business, improved from negative $145 million in 2024 (See Table 7).

Footnotes:
1  Effective December 31, 2024, the Company updated its definitions of Operating EBITDA and Adjusted net income (loss) to include
adjustments for non-cash stock-based compensation and legal contingencies unrelated to normal operations which currently includes industry-
wide antitrust lawsuits and class action lawsuits to conform with similar adjustments and measures disclosed by industry competitors. These
changes have been applied retrospectively to prior periods to enhance comparability. The inclusion of these adjustments does not materially
affect segment-level trends or conclusions previously disclosed.
2  See Table 5 for a reconciliation of Net loss attributable to Anywhere to Operating EBITDA. Operating EBITDA is defined as net income
(loss) adjusted for depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net (excluding relocation services interest for securitization assets and
securitization obligations), income taxes, and certain non-core items. Non-core items include non-cash stock-based compensation,
restructuring charges, impairments, former parent legacy items, legal contingencies unrelated to normal operations which currently includes
industry-wide antitrust lawsuits and class action lawsuits, gains or losses on the early extinguishment of debt, and gains or losses on
discontinued operations or the sale of businesses, investments or other assets.
3  See Table 1a for a reconciliation of Net loss attributable to Anywhere to Adjusted net loss. Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net
income (loss) before mark-to-market interest rate swap adjustments, non-cash stock-based compensation, restructuring charges, impairments,
former parent legacy items, legal contingencies unrelated to normal operations which currently includes industry-wide antitrust lawsuits and
class action lawsuits, (gain) loss on the early extinguishment of debt, (gain) loss on the sale of businesses, investments or other assets and the
tax effect of the foregoing adjustments.
4  See Table 7 for a reconciliation of Net loss attributable to Anywhere to Free Cash Flow. Free Cash Flow is defined as net income (loss)
attributable to Anywhere before income tax expense (benefit), income tax payments, net interest expense, cash interest payments, depreciation
and amortization, capital expenditures, restructuring costs and former parent legacy costs (benefits), net of payments, impairments, (gain) loss
on the sale of businesses, investments or other assets, (gain) loss on the early extinguishment of debt, working capital adjustments and
relocation receivables (assets), net of change in securitization obligations.
5  Includes all franchisees except for Owned Brokerage Group.
6  As of March 31, 2025, the Company’s combined homesale transaction volume (transaction sides multiplied by average sale price) increased
6% compared with the first quarter of 2024.

2025 Financial Estimates

The Company expects to realize cost savings of approximately $100 million in 2025, which we expect will be offset in part by inflationary pressures and investments as we look to make significant progress transforming our business.

The Company expects Operating EBITDA for full year 2025 to be about $350 million. The largest variable in this estimate is the performance of the housing market.

The Company expects Operating EBITDA for the second quarter of 2025 to be similar to the Operating EBITDA for the second quarter of 2024.

The Company expects its Free Cash Flow excluding one-time items to be similar to 2024. Free Cash Flow, like Operating EBITDA, is driven by the overall housing market and may be impacted by additional investments we make to drive growth and advance our technology strategy.

The one-time items are estimated to be approximately $115 million and consist of three payments we expect to make in 2025. First, the final $54 million payment towards our antitrust litigation settlement will be due when appeals are resolved, the timing of which is uncertain. Second, approximately $41 million for a 1999 Cendant legacy tax matter. Third, an approximately $20 million payment for the January 2025 settlement of the Company’s TCPA litigation, subject to final court approval.

These estimates are subject to, among other things, macroeconomic and housing market uncertainties, including those related to declining affordability, constrained inventory and competitive, litigation and regulatory uncertainties. See “Forward-Looking Statements” below.

Balance Sheet

Total corporate debt, including the short-term portion, net of cash and cash equivalents (net corporate debt), totaled $2.6 billion at March 31, 2025. The Company ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $110 million. The Company’s Senior Secured Leverage Ratio was 1.51x at March 31, 2025 (see Table 8a). The Company’s Net Debt Leverage Ratio was 7.2x at March 31, 2025 (see Table 8b).

As of April 28, 2025 the Company had $690 million of outstanding borrowings under its Revolving Credit Facility.

A consolidated balance sheet is included as Table 2 of this press release.

Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Anywhere Real Estate Inc. to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

The following include some, but not all, of the factors that could affect our future results and cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements: downturns and disruptions in the residential real estate market, which could include, but are not limited to, factors that impact homesale transaction volume, such as: prolonged periods of a high mortgage rate and/or high inflation rate environment, continued or accelerated reductions in housing affordability, insufficient or excessive inventory and continued or accelerated declines, the absence of significant increases in the number of home sales, stagnant or declining home prices, or changes in consumer preferences in the U.S.; adverse developments or the absence of sustained improvement in macroeconomic conditions (such as business, economic or political conditions) on a global, domestic or local basis, including those arising from actual or potential changes in trade policy; changes to industry rules or practices that prohibit, restrict or adversely alter policies, practices, rules or regulations governing the functioning of the residential real estate market (regardless of whether such changes are driven by regulatory action, litigation outcomes, or otherwise); the impact of evolving competitive and consumer dynamics, including: meaningful decreases in the average broker commission rate, continued erosion of the Company’s share of the commission income generated by homesale transactions, our ability (and the ability of affiliated joint ventures and franchisees) to compete against traditional and non-traditional competitors, our ability to adapt our business to changing consumer preferences, or further disruption in the residential real estate brokerage industry related to listing aggregator market power and concentration; our ability to execute our business strategy, including with respect to our efforts to: recruit and retain productive independent sales agents, attract and retain franchisees or renew existing franchise agreements without reducing contractual royalty rates or increasing the amount and prevalence of sales incentives, develop or procure products, services and technology that support our strategic initiatives, successfully adopt and integrate artificial intelligence and similar technology into our products and services, or achieve or maintain cost savings and other benefits from our cost-saving initiatives; adverse developments or outcomes in large scale litigation, involving significant claims, such as antitrust litigation and litigation related to the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA); risks related to our substantial indebtedness, in general, particularly heightened during industry downturns or broader recessions, which could adversely limit our operations, including our ability to grow our business, whether organically or via acquisitions, adversely impact our liquidity and/or adversely impact our ability, and any actions we may take, to refinance, restructure or repay our indebtedness; risks related to our ability to refinance or restructure our substantial indebtedness that will mature (or may spring forward) in 2026 on terms as favorable as those of currently outstanding debt, or at all, including as a result of global and national macroeconomic factors and their impact on the credit and capital markets; risks related to our business structure, including:  the operating results of affiliated franchisees and their ability to pay franchise and related fees, continued consolidation among our top 250 franchisees, the geographic and high-end market concentration of our company owned brokerages, the loss of our largest real estate benefit program client or continued reduction in spending on relocation services, the failure of third-party vendors or partners to perform as expected or our failure to adequately monitor them, our ability to continue to securitize certain of the relocation assets of Cartus; our failure or alleged failure to comply with laws, regulations and regulatory interpretations and any changes or stricter interpretations of any of the foregoing, including but not limited to (1) antitrust laws and regulations, (2) the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act or other federal or state consumer protection or similar laws, (3) state or federal employment laws or regulations that would require reclassification of independent contractor sales agents to employee status, (4) the TCPA, and (5) privacy or cybersecurity laws and regulations; cybersecurity incidents; impacts from severe weather events, natural disasters and other catastrophic events; impairment of our goodwill and other long-lived assets; the accuracy of market forecasts and estimates; and significant fluctuation in the price of our common stock.

Consideration should be given to the areas of risk described above, as well as those risks set forth under the headings “Forward-Looking Statements,” “Summary of Risk Factors” and “Risk Factors” in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, 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. 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 except as required 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 8a, 8b and 9 for definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures and Tables 1a, 5, 6a, 6b, 7, 8a and 8b for reconciliations of the historical non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP terms.

Reconciliations of the Company’s estimates of 2025 Operating EBITDA, Operating EBITDA for the second quarter of 2025 and full-year Free Cash Flow excluding one-time items, which are each non-GAAP financial measures, to estimated net income (loss) attributable to Anywhere are not provided because of the difficulty in forecasting and quantifying the items that would be necessary for such reconciliations. The Company also believes that providing estimates of the amounts that would be required to provide such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors and may have a material impact on GAAP results.

NAR data is subject to periodic review and revision, which has been, and could in the future be, material. Additionally, NAR uses survey data and estimates, which can have sampling errors and will not directly correlate with Anywhere Advisor’s results due to its geographic concentration.

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION – SENIOR SECURED LEVERAGE RATIO
FOR THE FOUR-QUARTER PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 2025
(In millions)
The senior secured leverage ratio is tested quarterly pursuant to the terms of the senior secured credit facilities*. For the trailing
four-quarter period ended March 31, 2025, Anywhere Real Estate Group LLC (“Anywhere Group”) was required to maintain a
senior secured leverage ratio not to exceed 4.75 to 1.00. The senior secured leverage ratio is measured by dividing Anywhere
Group’s total senior secured net debt by the trailing four-quarter EBITDA calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, as those terms are
defined in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement. Total senior secured net debt does not include the 7.00% Senior Secured
Second Lien Notes*, our unsecured indebtedness, including the Unsecured Notes* and Exchangeable Senior Notes*, or the
securitization obligations. EBITDA calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement,
includes the bank adjustments set forth below. The Company was in compliance with the senior secured leverage ratio covenant
at March 31, 2025 with a ratio of 1.51x to 1.00.
A reconciliation of Net loss attributable to Anywhere Group to EBITDA calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, as those terms are

(a)Net loss attributable to Anywhere Group consists of: (i) income of $30 million for the second quarter of 2024, (ii) income of $7 million
for the third quarter of 2024, (iii) loss of $64 million for the fourth quarter of 2024 and (iv) loss of $78 million for the first quarter of

(d)Represents the estimated impact of acquisitions and franchise sales activity, net of brokerages that exited our franchise system, as if these
changes had occurred at the beginning of the trailing twelve-month period. Franchisee sales activity is comprised of new franchise
agreements as well as growth through acquisitions and independent sales agent recruitment by existing franchisees with our assistance.
We have made a number of assumptions in calculating such estimates and there can be no assurance that we would have generated the
projected levels of Operating EBITDA had we owned the acquired entities or entered into the franchise contracts as of the beginning of
the trailing twelve-month period.
(e)Incremental borrowing costs incurred as a result of the securitization facilities refinancing for the four-quarter period ended March 31,

(f)Represents total borrowings secured by a first priority lien on our assets of $610 million under the Revolving Credit Facility plus $12
million of finance lease obligations less $85 million of readily available cash as of March 31, 2025. Pursuant to the terms of our senior
secured credit facilities, total senior secured net debt does not include our securitization obligations, 7.00% Senior Secured Second Lien
Notes or unsecured indebtedness, including the Unsecured Notes and Exchangeable Senior Notes.
*     Our senior secured credit facilities include the facilities under our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of March 5, 2013,
as amended from time to time (the “Senior Secured Credit Agreement”). Our Senior Secured Second Lien Notes include our 7.00% Senior
Secured Second Lien Notes due in 2030. Our Unsecured Notes include our 5.75% Senior Notes due 2029 and 5.25% Senior Notes due 2030.
Exchangeable Senior Notes refers to our 0.25% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2026.

Ratio is measured at March 31 of any given year, the calculation includes a positive $200 million seasonality adjustment to cash and cash

Table 9

Non-GAAP Definitions

Operating EBITDA is our primary non-GAAP measure. Operating EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net (excluding relocation services interest for securitization assets and securitization obligations), income taxes, and certain non-core items. Non-core items include non-cash stock-based compensation, restructuring charges, impairments, former parent legacy items, legal contingencies unrelated to normal operations which currently includes industry-wide antitrust lawsuits and class action lawsuits, gains or losses on the early extinguishment of debt, and gains or losses on discontinued operations or the sale of businesses, investments or other assets. The adjustment for stock-based compensation reflect non-cash expenses that are based on grant date fair value, which is influenced by the Company’s stock price, and recognized over the requisite service period. The adjustment for legal contingencies excludes cases that are part of our normal operating activities and legal expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business. Operating EBITDA Margin is defined as Operating EBITDA as a percentage of revenues.

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, 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.

In addition to Operating EBITDA, we present Adjusted net income (loss) because we believe this measure is useful as a supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of our operating businesses and provides greater transparency into our operating results. Adjusted net income (loss) is defined by us as net income (loss) before: (a) mark-to-market interest rate swap adjustments; (b) non-cash stock-based compensation; (c) restructuring charges as a result of initiatives currently in progress; (d) impairments; (e) former parent legacy items, which pertain to liabilities of the former parent for matters prior to mid-2006 and are non-operational in nature; (f) legal contingencies unrelated to normal operations which currently includes industry-wide antitrust lawsuits and class action lawsuits; (g) (gain) loss on the early extinguishment of debt that results from refinancing and deleveraging debt initiatives; (h) the (gain) loss on the sale of businesses, investments or other assets and (i) the tax effect of the foregoing adjustments.

Free Cash Flow is defined as net income (loss) attributable to Anywhere before income tax expense (benefit), income tax payments, interest expense, net, cash interest payments, depreciation and amortization, capital expenditures, restructuring costs and former parent legacy costs (benefits), net of payments, impairments, (gain) loss on the sale of businesses, investments or other assets, (gain) 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 (loss) attributable to Anywhere and net cash provided by (used in) 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.
