Revenue

RE/MAX Holdings generated revenue of $68.5 million in the second quarter of 2026, a decrease of $4.3 million, or 5.8%, compared to $72.8 million in the second quarter of 2025. Revenue excluding the Marketing Funds was $51.7 million in the second quarter of 2026, a decrease of $2.8 million, or 5.1%, versus the same period in 2025. The decrease in Revenue excluding the Marketing Funds was attributable to a decline in organic revenue of 5.1%, and flat foreign currency movements. The decline in organic revenue was driven mainly by modifications to the Company's standard fee models, including the Aspire and Ascend programs, a decrease in U.S. agent count and lower Mortgage segment revenue, partially offset by an increase in Broker fees primarily from increases in average transactions per agent and average home sale prices in the U.S.

Recurring revenue streams, which consist of continuing franchise fees and annual dues, decreased $3.6 million, or 9.9%, compared to the second quarter of 2025 and accounted for 63.9% of Revenue excluding the Marketing Funds in the second quarter of 2026 compared to 67.3% in the prior-year period.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses were $67.0 million for the second quarter of 2026, an increase of $8.3 million, or 14.1%, compared to $58.7 million in the second quarter of 2025. Second quarter 2026 total operating expenses increased primarily due to an increase in transaction costs related to the Merger, partially offset by a decrease in Selling operating and administrative expenses, Marketing Funds expenses, and Depreciation and Amortization expenses.

Selling, operating and administrative expenses were $32.9 million in the second quarter of 2026, a decrease of $1.0 million, or 3.0%, compared to the second quarter of 2025 and represented 63.6% of Revenue excluding the Marketing Funds, compared to 62.2% in the prior-year period. Second quarter 2026 Selling, operating and administrative expenses decreased due to lower personnel expenses, partially offset by higher investments in technology and our flagship websites.

Net Income (loss) and GAAP EPS

Net loss attributable to RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. was $4.3 million for the second quarter of 2026 compared to net income of $4.7 million for the second quarter of 2025. Reported basic and diluted GAAP loss per share were $0.20 each for the second quarter of 2026 compared to basic and diluted GAAP earnings per share were $0.23 each for the second quarter of 2025.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS

Adjusted EBITDA was $22.9 million for the second quarter of 2026, a decrease of $3.3 million, or 12.6%, compared to the second quarter of 2025. Second quarter 2026 Adjusted EBITDA decreased due to lower total revenue driven by modifications to the Company's standard fee models, including the Aspire and Ascend programs, a reduction in U.S. agent count, and higher investments in technology; partially offset by an increase in Broker fees. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 33.5% in the second quarter of 2026, compared to 36.1% in the second quarter of 2025.

Adjusted basic and diluted EPS were $0.32 each for the second quarter of 2026 compared to Adjusted basic and diluted EPS of $0.39 each for the second quarter of 2025. The ownership structure used to calculate Adjusted basic and diluted EPS for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, assumes RE/MAX Holdings owned 100% of RMCO, LLC ("RMCO"). The weighted average ownership RE/MAX Holdings had in RMCO was 62.9% for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Balance Sheet

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $112.4 million, a decrease of $6.3 million from December 31, 2025. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had $435.0 million of outstanding debt, net of an unamortized debt discount and issuance costs, compared to $436.8 million as of December 31, 2025.

Non-GAAP measure. See the end of this press release for definitions of non-GAAP measures.

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 (loss), 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, 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 transaction costs related to the Merger 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;
  • 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 settlements of certain 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.

Adjusted net income (loss) is calculated as Net income (loss) 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, 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 (loss) (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.

When used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, Adjusted net income (loss) 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, Inc. ("RIHI"), an entity majority owned and controlled by David Liniger, our Chairman and Co-Founder, and by Gail Liniger, our Vice Chair Emerita and Co-Founder, 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.
