Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Conditions.

We are furnishing this information under Item 2.02 solely to report the $9.25 million pre-tax charge for the Settlement Amount (as defined below) that we expect to record during the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The Settlement Amount is expected to be excluded from our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD.

On May 3, 2024, we entered into a settlement term sheet (the “Proposed Settlement”) to resolve on a nationwide basis the pending class action litigation Gibson v. NAR, No. 4:23-cv-00788 (W.D. Mo.), which has been consolidated with Umpa v. NAR, 4:23-cv-00945 (W.D. Mo.), and is pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of Missouri (collectively, the “Lawsuits”). The Proposed Settlement resolves all claims in the Lawsuits, and similar claims on behalf of home sellers on a nationwide basis, against us (the “Claims”) and releases us, our subsidiaries, and our agents from the Claims. The Proposed Settlement does not require an admission of liability, nor do we concede or validate any of the claims asserted against us in the Lawsuits. Under the Proposed Settlement, we agreed to pay $9.25 million (the “Settlement Amount”) into a qualified settlement fund within 30 days of the court’s preliminary approval of the Settlement Agreement. We do not expect the terms of the Proposed Settlement to have a material impact on our future operations.

The information contained in Item 2.02 and Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is being “furnished” and shall not be deemed “filed” for purpose of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other filings by us under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws, including statements related to the Proposed Settlement, the amount and timing of the payment pursuant to the Proposed Settlement; the expected $9.25 million pre-tax charge for the Settlement Amount and the impact of such charge on our results of operations and cash flows for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 and its expected exclusion from our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. We believe our expectations related to these forward-looking statements are reasonable, but actual results may turn out to be materially different. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements include the ability of the parties to obtain preliminary and final court approval of the Proposed Settlement and the final terms being substantially the same as those set forth in the Proposed Settlement and the nature and amount of the exclusion of charges in future periods when determining Adjusted EBITDA is subject to uncertainty and may not be similar to such charges in prior periods. For additional factors, please see the risks and uncertainties identified under the heading "Risk Factors" in our annual report for the year ended December 31, 2023, which is available on our Investor Relations website at http://investors.redfin.com and on the SEC website at www.sec.gov. All forward-looking statements reflect our beliefs and assumptions only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. We undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect future events or circumstances
