The Real Brokerage Inc. Announces First Quarter 2026 Financial Results

MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Real Brokerage Inc. (NASDAQ: REAX) (“Real” or the “Company”), a leading real estate technology platform redefining the industry through innovation and culture, announced today financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

“Real delivered another quarter of significant growth, with revenue increasing 32% year-over-year, demonstrating the continued strength of our platform and agent value proposition,” said Tamir Poleg, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "The agreement to acquire RE/MAX Holdings Inc. (“REMAX”) represents a defining moment in our history and in our industry - by combining Real's technology-driven brokerage with one of the industry’s most iconic and trusted brands we will create the preeminent real estate platform of the future.”

“Q1 tells a compelling story about the breadth of what we are building - both agent count and transaction count increased 25%, while all three ancillary businesses each posted strong revenue growth, validating that agents and their clients are adopting the full Real ecosystem,” said Jenna Rozenblat, Chief Operating Officer. “The platform is working, and the combination with REMAX provides a step-change in the scale through which we can deliver it.”

”Revenue and gross profit each grew faster than operating expenses, driving a meaningful improvement in net loss year-over-year and an 80% increase in Adjusted EBITDA to $14.9 million, a strong result in what is historically our seasonally lowest revenue quarter,” said Ravi Jani, Chief Financial Officer. “We ended the quarter with $62.9 million in unrestricted cash and no debt, and entered the spring selling season with solid momentum. We remain confident the REMAX transaction will create compelling value for our agents, franchisees, consumers, and shareholders.”

Non-GAAP Measures and Ratios

This news release includes references to “Adjusted EBITDA”, “Adjusted Operating Expense”, and “Operating Expense Excluding Revenue Share”, which are non-U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) financial measures. Non-GAAP measures, including non-GAAP ratios, are not recognized measures under GAAP, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP, and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that management uses to evaluate operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income/(loss) before finance expenses, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, intangible asset impairment expense, stock-based compensation, restructuring expenses, acquisition costs and expenses related to litigation settlements.

Operating Expense Excluding Revenue Share is used as an alternative to operating expenses by removing variable cash expenses associated with revenue share expenses, which is a component of marketing expenses.

Adjusted Operating Expense is used as an alternative to operating expenses by removing major non-cash items such as stock-based compensation, depreciation, and other unique or non-cash expenses, while retaining ongoing fixed operating expenses and excluding variable cash expenses associated with revenue share.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Operating Expense and Operating Expense Excluding Revenue Share have no direct comparable GAAP financial measures. The Company has used or included these non-GAAP measures solely to provide investors with added insight into Real’s financial performance. Readers are cautioned that such non-GAAP measures may not be appropriate for any other purpose. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled to the most comparable GAAP measure for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 and is presented in the table below labeled Reconciliation of Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA. Our Adjusted Operating Expense and Operating Expense Excluding Revenue Share reconciled to the most comparable GAAP measure is presented for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and on a quarterly basis for the prior two fiscal years in the table below labeled Reconciliation of Operating Expense to Adjusted Operating Expense by Quarter.

This press release also includes non-GAAP financial measure ratios, which are financial measures disclosed in the form of a ratio, fraction, percentage, or similar representation and that has a non-GAAP financial measure as one or more of its components.

Operating Expense Excluding Revenue Share per Transaction is a ratio calculated as Operating Expense Excluding Revenue Share, divided by the number of closed transaction sides. Adjusted Operating Expense per Transaction is a ratio calculated as Adjusted Operating Expense, divided by the number of closed transaction sides.
