CBRE GROUP, INC. REPORTS ROBUST REVENUE AND

EARNINGS GROWTH FOR THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2014

Revenue Increases 31% and Adjusted Earnings Per Share Rises 33% to $0.40

Los Angeles, CA – October 29, 2014 — CBRE Group, Inc. (NYSE:CBG) today reported very strong revenue and earnings growth for the third quarter ended September 30, 2014.

·Revenue for the quarter totaled $2.3 billion, an increase of 31% from $1.7 billion in the third quarter of 2013.

·Excluding selected items1, net income2 rose 33% to $132.6 million from $99.7 million in the third quarter of 2013, and adjusted earnings per diluted share also improved 33% to $0.40 from $0.30 in the prior-year period. For the third quarter, selected items (net of income taxes) totaled $25.5 million – including $14.1 million related to the early re-payment of debt and $11.8 million of non-cash amortization relating to prior acquisitions – versus $5.3 million for the same period in 2013.

·On a U.S. GAAP basis, net income rose 13% to $107.1 million, compared with $94.4 million for the third quarter of 2013.  GAAP earnings per diluted share rose 14% to $0.32, compared with $0.28 in last year’s third quarter.

·Excluding selected items, EBITDA3 increased 30% to $292.2 million from $225.2 million in the third quarter of 2013. EBITDA3 (including selected items) rose 31% to $292.9 million for the third quarter of 2014, from $224.4 million for the same period a year earlier.

Management Commentary

“CBRE produced excellent growth across markets and business lines during the third quarter, reflecting the strength of our integrated, global service offering,” said Bob Sulentic, president and chief executive officer of CBRE. “Growth was strong in all three global regions and we achieved double-digit revenue increases in nearly all business lines, led by impressive gains in capital markets, occupier outsourcing and leasing.”

CBRE Press Release

October 29, 2014

Revenue rose by 20% or more in all three global regions. Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) achieved 25% (19% in local currency) organic revenue growth – 101% (95% in local currency) including the contributions from Norland Managed Services, Ltd, which CBRE acquired in late December 2013. Asia Pacific posted its strongest growth in 16 quarters with revenue rising 25% (23% in local currency). The Americas, CBRE’s largest business segment, saw revenue improve 20% (same in local currency), fueled by double-digit increases in every major business line.

Globally, property sales revenue surged 33% (32% in local currency) during the quarter, with significant increases across all three global regions. Notably, U.S. property sales improved 31% as CBRE executed several large single-asset and portfolio sales during the quarter, including One Wall Street for Bank of New York Mellon and a $1.8 billion multifamily portfolio for DRA Advisors and Bell Partners Corporation. Strong capital flows into commercial real estate – coupled with the continued availability of debt capital – led to a 41% increase (40% in local currency) in commercial mortgage services revenue.

Large occupiers continue to demonstrate a strong appetite for integrated real estate services.  CBRE is well placed to capitalize on this ongoing trend, as reflected in 26 new outsourcing contracts signed during the third quarter. Global occupier outsourcing revenue improved 18% on an organic basis during the quarter. With contributions from the Norland acquisition, global revenue from this business line rose 61%.

Property leasing revenue improved by double digits for the fifth consecutive quarter, rising by 15% (14% in local currency). Growth was paced by an 18% increase (18% in local currency) in the Americas, where CBRE continues to make strong market share gains.

Development Services saw revenue rise 27% and EBITDA increase four-fold reflecting the focus on developing high-quality assets in markets and sectors with significant investor demand.

Global Investment Management revenue declined during the quarter, primarily due to last year’s third quarter including nearly $30 million of carried-interest revenue, which did not recur in this year’s period.  Otherwise, revenue in this segment would have increased 7% (5% in local currency).  Carried interest is incremental revenue that CBRE earns when it sells assets within portfolios it manages for institutional investors at values that exceed specified return thresholds. The timing of such sales is determined by the macro market environment and fund lifecycles. Capital raising activity in Global Investment Management remained strong with $9.1 billion of new commitments over the past twelve months.

The ongoing shift in the company’s business mix toward contractual revenue continued during the third quarter. Contractual revenue rose to 51% of total revenue – up from 48% in the third quarter of 2013.

During the third quarter, CBRE issued $300 million of 5.25% senior notes due 2025 and on October 27, 2014, CBRE used the note proceeds, together with cash on hand and borrowing under our revolving credit facility, to redeem in full its 6.625% senior notes due 2020 ($350 million aggregate principal amount).  These actions will lower CBRE’s annual interest expense by approximately $5 million and will extend debt maturity on $300 million of its senior unsecured debt by 4-1/2 years at an attractive, fixed interest rate.

Third-Quarter 2014 Segment Results

Americas Region (U.S., Canada and Latin America)

·Revenue rose 20% (same in local currency) to $1.3 billion, compared with $1.1 billion for the third quarter of 2013. The improved revenue was driven by higher property sales, leasing, occupier outsourcing and commercial mortgage services activities.

·EBITDA increased 42% to $187.5 million compared with $132.2 million in last year’s third quarter.

·Operating income totaled $136.1 million, an increase of 41% from $96.4 million for the prior-year third quarter.

EMEA Region (primarily Europe)

·Revenue rose 101% (95% in local currency) to $574.5 million, compared with $285.5 million for the third quarter of 2013.  Excluding the contributions from Norland, EMEA revenue increased 25% (19% in local currency) over the prior-year period.  The increase was driven by higher property sales and appraisal activities as well as significant organic growth in occupier outsourcing.

·EBITDA increased 111% to $37.5 million compared with $17.7 million in the prior-year third quarter.

·Operating income totaled $20.2 million, an increase of 60% from $12.6 million for the third quarter of 2013.

Asia Pacific Region (Asia, Australia and New Zealand)

·Revenue was $253.7 million, an increase of 25% (23% in local currency) from $202.7 million for the third quarter of 2013.  Performance improved in several countries, particularly Japan and Australia.

·EBITDA increased 74% to $22.8 million compared with $13.1 million in the prior-year third quarter.

·Operating income totaled $18.6 million, an increase of 81% compared with $10.3 million in the third quarter of 2013.

CBRE Press Release

·Prior-year period results included $29.9 million of carried-interest revenue and $2.3 million of carried-interest expense reversal, while third-quarter 2014 results included $0.7 million of carried-interest revenue. Excluding carried interest, revenue was up 7%, driven by significantly higher acquisition fees.

Development Services (real estate development and investment activities primarily in the U.S.)

·Revenue rose 27% to $16.0 million, compared with $12.6 million for the third quarter of 2013.

·EBITDA increased 300% to $24.0 million compared with $6.0 million in the prior-year period. The increase was largely driven by higher income from property sales (reflected in both gain on disposition of real estate and equity earnings) in the current-year third quarter.

·Operating loss totaled $5.5 million compared with an operating loss of $3.7 million for the third quarter of 2013. Under U.S. GAAP, equity earnings, which include some property sales, are not part of the calculation of operating income/loss.

·Reflecting improving fundamentals, development projects in process totaled $5.1 billion, up $300 million from second-quarter 2014, and the inventory of pipeline deals totaled $2.9 billion, up $1 billion from second-quarter 2014.

Nine-Month 2014 Results

·Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 totaled $6.3 billion, an increase of 26% from $5.0 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

·Excluding selected items, net income increased 32% to $333.7 million for the first nine months of 2014 from $253.0 million in the same period in 2013. Adjusted earnings per diluted share also increased 32% to $1.00 compared with $0.76 for the prior-year period. Selected items (net of income taxes) totaled $53.5 million for the first nine months of 2014, and $51.1 million for the same period in 2013.

·On a U.S. GAAP basis, net income rose 39% to $280.2 million for the first nine months of 2014 from $201.9 million for the same period of 2013 and earnings per diluted share increased 38% to $0.84 compared with $0.61 for the prior-year period.

·Excluding selected items, EBITDA increased 20% to $753.7 million in the current nine-month period from $629.6 million in the first nine months of 2013. EBITDA (including selected items) also rose 20% to $750.3 million for the first nine months of 2014, compared with $624.6 million for the same period a year earlier.

Business Outlook

“We enter the final months of 2014 with strong momentum across our business lines,” said Mr. Sulentic. “Underlying fundamentals continue to improve and market sentiment remains positive.  We continue to execute our strategy by investing in our people and platform to create value for our clients and to extend our competitive advantage in the marketplace.”

With two months left in 2014, CBRE’s full-year performance is coming into sharper focus.  Therefore, the company is raising its adjusted EPS guidance4 for the full year to a range of $1.65 to $1.70.  CBRE is taking this action while being mindful of the slowing economic growth outside the U.S. and the challenging earnings comparison the company faces in the fourth quarter.  CBRE generated approximately $58 million of EBITDA from carried interest in the fourth quarter of 2013.

Additional information concerning factors that may influence the Company’s financial information is discussed under “Risk Factors”, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” and “Cautionary Note on Forward-Looking Statements” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 (as amended), and under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” and “Forward-Looking Statements” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, as well as in the Company’s press releases and other periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Such filings are available publicly and may be obtained on the Company’s website at www.cbre.com or upon written request from the CBRE Investor Relations Department at investorrelations@cbre.com.

1 Selected items included the write-off of financing costs, amortization expense related to certain intangible assets attributable to acquisitions, certain carried interest incentive compensation (reversal) expense and integration and other costs related to acquisitions.  For the impact of selected charges on specific periods, see the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this press release.

2 A reconciliation of net income attributable to CBRE Group, Inc. to net income attributable to CBRE Group, Inc., as adjusted for selected items, is provided in the section of this press release entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

3 EBITDA represents earnings before net interest expense, write-off of financing costs, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, while amounts shown for EBITDA, as adjusted (or normalized EBITDA), remove the impact of certain cash and non-cash charges related to acquisitions and certain carried interest incentive compensation (reversal) expense.  Our management believes that both of these measures are useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry because the calculations of EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, generally eliminate the effects of financing and income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending and acquisitions, which would include impairment charges of goodwill and intangibles created from acquisitions. Such items may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance.  As a result, our management uses these measures to evaluate operating performance and for other discretionary purposes, including as a significant component when measuring our operating performance under our employee incentive programs. Additionally, we believe EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, are useful to investors to assist them in getting a more complete picture of our results from operations.

However, EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, are not recognized measurements under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and when analyzing our operating performance, readers should use EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, in addition to, and not as an alternative for, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Furthermore, EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, are not intended to be measures of free cash flow for our management’s discretionary use, as they do not consider certain cash requirements such as tax and debt service payments. The amounts shown for EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, also differ from the amounts calculated under similarly titled definitions in our debt instruments, which are further adjusted to reflect certain other cash and non-cash charges and are used to determine compliance with financial covenants and our ability to engage in certain activities, such as incurring additional debt and making certain restricted payments.

For a reconciliation of EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, to net income attributable to CBRE Group, Inc., the most comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, see the section of this press release titled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

4 We have not reconciled the non-GAAP earnings per share guidance included in this release to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because this cannot be done without unreasonable effort.
