營業收入

 

re/max holdings在2024年第三季度創造了7850萬美元的營業收入,較2023年第三季度的8120萬美元減少270萬美元,或3.4%。2024年第三季度不包括營銷資金在內的營業收入爲5840萬美元,較2023年同期的減少200萬美元,或3.3%。不包括營銷資金的營業收入下降部分歸因於3.0%的負有機營收增長和0.3%的不利外匯波動。負有機營收增長主要是由於美國經紀人數量減少和來自先前收購的收入減少,部分抵消了經紀佣金收入的增加。

 

循環營業收入流,包括持續特許費和年度會費,與2023年第三季度相比減少了$1.5 million,或3.8%,並在2024年第三季度佔營業收入的66.4%,排除了營銷資金,與去年同期佔營業收入的66.7%相比。

 

研究和開發

 

2024年第三季度的總營業費用爲6330萬美元,較2023年第三季度的10220萬美元減少3900萬美元,降幅爲38.1%。在2023年第三季度,公司同意支付5500萬美元,解決各種行業集體訴訟,該費用已記錄在2023年第三季度。另外,2023年第三季度還記錄了2490萬美元的減少稅收協議責任的收益。

 

在2024年第三季度,銷售、營運和行政費用爲3590萬美元,比2023年第三季度減少720萬美元,降低了16.6%,佔營業收入的61.5%,不包括營銷基金,在去年同期佔比爲71.4%。2024年第三季度的銷售、營運和行政費用主要由於人員成本降低以及壞賬、法律和其他科技支出減少。

 

淨利潤(虧損) 和通用會計準則每股收益

 

re/max holdings歸屬的淨利潤 2024年第三季度爲100萬美元,而2023年第三季度爲淨損失(59.5)百萬美元。報告的每股基本和稀釋 GAAP盈利分別爲2024年第三季度的0.05美元,而2023年第三季度的每股基本和稀釋GAAP虧損分別爲(3.28)美元。

 

調整後的EBITDA和 調整後的每股收益

 

2024年第三季度調整後的EBITDA爲2730萬美元,比2023年第三季度增加50萬美元,增長2.0%。2024年第三季度的調整後EBITDA主要由壞賬減少、法律、人員和其他技術支出減少造成,部分抵消了美國代理數量的減少。2024年第三季度調整後的EBITDA利潤率爲34.8%,而2023年第三季度爲32.9%。

調整後的基本和攤薄每股收益分別爲$0.39和$0.38,與2023年第三季度調整後的基本和攤薄每股收益$0.40相比。用於計算2024年9月30日季度調整後的基本和攤薄每股收益的所有權結構假定 re/max holdings 擁有 RMCO, LLC (「RMCO」) 的100%股權。re/max holdings 在 RMCO 中的加權平均持股比例爲2024年9月30日季度爲60.0%。

 

資產負債表:

 

截至2024年9月30日,公司的現金及現金等價物爲8380萬美元,比2023年12月31日增加了120萬美元。截至2024年9月30日,公司的未償債務淨額爲44180萬美元,減去未攤銷的債務折扣和發行成本,相比之下,截至2023年12月31日爲44460萬美元。

 

股份回購 和養老

 

根據先前披露的信息,2022年1月,公司董事會授權進行高達10000萬美元的普通股回購計劃。截至2024年9月30日三個月結束時,公司未回購任何股份。截至2024年9月30日,股份回購計劃尚餘6250萬美元可用。

 

颶風的影響 海倫和米爾頓

 

公司多個附屬機構受到近期颶風的影響。雖然目前還不完全清楚這些颶風對公司網絡的全面影響,但公司目前估計第四季度的營業收入將低於之前的預期,因爲對受影響附屬機構提供有限時間的財政壓力位。因此,公司第四季度及全年營業收入(見下文)減少了大約100萬到150萬,其中約40%與營銷所有基金類型有關,以反映因這些風暴而對受影響附屬機構提供的費用豁免所導致的預期損失收入。

 

展望

 

The Company’s fourth quarter and full year 2024 Outlook includes the impact of the fee waivers to hurricane-impacted affiliates and assumes no further currency movements, acquisitions, or divestitures.

 

For the fourth quarter of 2024, RE/MAX Holdings expects:

 

§Agent count to change 0.0% to 1.0% over fourth quarter 2023;
§Revenue in a range of $71.0 million to $76.0 million (including revenue from the Marketing Funds in a range of $18.5 million to $20.5 million); and
§Adjusted EBITDA in a range of $20.5 million to $23.5 million.

 

For the full year 2024, the Company now expects:

 

§Agent count to change 0.0% to 1.0% over full year 2023, changed from negative 1.0% to positive 1.0%;
§Revenue in a range of $306.0 million to $311.0 million (including revenue from the Marketing Funds in a range of $78.5 million to $80.5 million), changed from $305.0 million to $315.0 million (including revenue from the Marketing Funds in a range of $78.0 million to $82.0 million); and
§Adjusted EBITDA in a range of $95.0 million to $98.0 million, changed from $93.0 million to $98.0 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

The SEC has adopted rules to regulate the use in filings with the SEC and in public disclosures of financial measures that are not in accordance with U.S. GAAP, such as revenue excluding the Marketing Funds, Adjusted EBITDA and the ratios related thereto, Adjusted net income, Adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share (Adjusted EPS) and adjusted free cash flow. These measures are derived based on methodologies other than in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

 

Revenue excluding the Marketing Funds is calculated directly from our consolidated financial statements as Total revenue less Marketing Funds fees.

 

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA (consolidated net income before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, interest income and the provision for income taxes, each of which is presented in the unaudited consolidated financial statements included earlier in this press release), adjusted for the impact of the following items that are either non-cash or that the Company does not consider representative of its ongoing operating performance: loss or gain on sale or disposition of assets and sublease, settlement and impairment charges, equity-based compensation expense, acquisition-related expense, gain on reduction in tax receivable agreement liability, expense or income related to changes in the estimated fair value measurement of contingent consideration, restructuring charges and other non-recurring items. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue.

 

Because Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin omit certain non-cash items and other non-recurring cash charges or other items, the Company believes that each measure is less susceptible to variances that affect its operating performance resulting from depreciation, amortization and other non-cash and non-recurring cash charges or other items. The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA and the related Adjusted EBITDA margin because the Company believes they are useful as supplemental measures in evaluating the performance of its operating businesses and provides greater transparency into the Company’s results of operations. The Company’s management uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as factors in evaluating the performance of the business.

 

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analyzing the Company’s results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

 

·these measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company’s working capital needs;

 

·these measures do not reflect the Company’s interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on its debt;

 

·these measures do not reflect the Company’s income tax expense or the cash requirements to pay its taxes;

 

RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. – Third Quarter 2024Page 14 of 16

 

 

 

·these measures do not reflect the cash requirements to pay dividends to stockholders of the Company’s Class A common stock and tax and other cash distributions to its non-controlling unitholders;

 

·these measures do not reflect the cash requirements pursuant to the tax receivable agreements;

 

·these measures do not reflect the cash requirements for share repurchases;

 

·these measures do not reflect the cash requirements for the settlement of industry class-action lawsuits and other legal settlements;

 

·although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often require replacement in the future, and these measures do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;

 

·although equity-based compensation is a non-cash charge, the issuance of equity-based awards may have a dilutive impact on earnings per share; and

 

·other companies may calculate these measures differently so similarly named measures may not be comparable.

 

The Company's Adjusted EBITDA guidance does not include certain charges and costs. The adjustments to EBITDA in future periods are generally expected to be similar to the kinds of charges and costs excluded from Adjusted EBITDA in prior quarters, such as gain or loss on sale or disposition of assets and sublease, settlement and impairment charges, equity-based compensation expense, acquisition-related expense, gains or losses from changes in the tax receivable agreement liability, expense or income related to changes in the fair value measurement of contingent consideration, restructuring charges and other non-recurring items. The exclusion of these charges and costs in future periods will have a significant impact on the Company's Adjusted EBITDA. The Company is not able to provide a reconciliation of the Company's non-GAAP financial guidance to the corresponding U.S. GAAP measures without unreasonable effort because of the uncertainty and variability of the nature and amount of these future charges and costs.

 

Adjusted net income is calculated as Net income attributable to RE/MAX Holdings, assuming the full exchange of all outstanding non-controlling interests for shares of Class A common stock as of the beginning of the period (and the related increase to the provision for income taxes after such exchange), plus primarily non-cash items and other items that management does not consider to be useful in assessing the Company’s operating performance (e.g., amortization of acquired intangible assets, gain on sale or disposition of assets and sub-lease, non-cash impairment charges, acquisition-related expense, restructuring charges and equity-based compensation expense).

 

Adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share (Adjusted EPS) are calculated as Adjusted net income (as defined above) divided by pro forma (assuming the full exchange of all outstanding non-controlling interests) basic and diluted weighted average shares, as applicable.

 

RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. – Third Quarter 2024Page 15 of 16

 

 

 

When used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, Adjusted net income and Adjusted EPS are supplemental measures of operating performance that management believes are useful measures to evaluate the Company’s performance relative to the performance of its competitors as well as performance period over period. By assuming the full exchange of all outstanding non-controlling interests, management believes these measures:

 

·facilitate comparisons with other companies that do not have a low effective tax rate driven by a non-controlling interest on a pass-through entity;

 

·facilitate period over period comparisons because they eliminate the effect of changes in Net income attributable to RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. driven by increases in its ownership of RMCO, LLC, which are unrelated to the Company’s operating performance; and

 

·eliminate primarily non-cash and other items that management does not consider to be useful in assessing the Company’s operating performance.

 

Adjusted free cash flow is calculated as cash flows from operations less capital expenditures and any changes in restricted cash of the Marketing Funds, all as reported under GAAP, and quantifies how much cash a company has to pursue opportunities that enhance shareholder value. The restricted cash of the Marketing Funds is limited in use for the benefit of franchisees and any impact to adjusted free cash flow is removed. The Company believes adjusted free cash flow is useful to investors as a supplemental measure as it calculates the cash flow available for working capital needs, re-investment opportunities, potential Independent Region and strategic acquisitions, dividend payments or other strategic uses of cash.

 

Adjusted free cash flow after tax and non-dividend distributions to RIHI is calculated as adjusted free cash flow less tax and other non-dividend distributions paid to RIHI (the non-controlling interest holder) to enable RIHI to satisfy its income tax obligations. Similar payments would be made by the Company directly to federal and state taxing authorities as a component of the Company’s consolidated provision for income taxes if a full exchange of non-controlling interests occurred in the future. As a result and given the significance of the Company’s ongoing tax and non-dividend distribution obligations to its non-controlling interest, adjusted free cash flow after tax and non-dividend distributions, when used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, provides a meaningful view of cash flow available to the Company to pursue opportunities that enhance shareholder value.

 

Unencumbered cash generated is calculated as adjusted free cash flow after tax and non-dividend distributions to RIHI less quarterly debt principal payments less annual excess cash flow payment on debt, as applicable. Given the significance of the Company’s excess cash flow payment on debt, when applicable, unencumbered cash generated, when used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, provides a meaningful view of the cash flow available to the Company to pursue opportunities that enhance shareholder value after considering its debt service obligations.
