BELLINGHAM, Wash. — May 1, 2024 — eXp World Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXPI), or the “Company”, the holding company for eXp Realty^®, FrameVR.io and SUCCESS^® Enterprises, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.

“During the first quarter, our agents closed over $37 billion of transactions, a 12% year-over-year increase, underscoring eXp’s unparalleled scale in the cloud brokerage market we pioneered,” said Glenn Sanford, eXp World Holdings Founder, Chairman and CEO. “We continue to provide our agents with the industry’s best platform for growth and the resources they need to navigate today’s dynamic real estate market. Under Leo Pareja’s leadership, I am confident that eXp Realty will extend its leadership position in the coming years and continue to redefine what it means to be the most agent-centric real estate brokerage on the planet.”

“Coming off another quarter of market share gains, I couldn’t be more excited to lead eXp Realty as the industry evolves,” said Leo Pareja, eXp Realty CEO. “Like Glenn, I will always be an agent at heart and ensure that eXp’s platform provides agents with everything they need to sell more real estate and achieve their financial goals faster than ever before. eXp Realty is the category king of the cloud-based brokerage model and the only brokerage of its kind operating at a significant scale. Our positive Adjusted EBITDA position enables us to invest in training, technology, and features that are unparalleled in the industry across the platform. I’m committed to leveraging our scale and sizable investments to increase operating efficiencies further, drive productivity and provide agents and shareholders with long-term, sustainable value for years to come.”

“We delivered a solid first quarter as we grew revenues 11% year over year while generating significant cash flow and returning $41 million to shareholders through share repurchases and cash dividends,” said Kent Cheng, Principal Financial Officer of eXp World Holdings. “We also demonstrated clear progress on our $20 million profit improvement plan. Despite our industry-leading efficiency, we believe there is further potential to improve as we continue to optimize our processes and leverage our scale to deliver higher margins and greater value for our shareholders.”

First Quarter 2024 Consolidated Financial Highlights as Compared to the Same Year-Ago Period:

● First quarter revenue increased 11% to $943 million, driven by increased agent productivity, a rise in average home sales prices, and increased international production, despite a challenging real estate market. U.S. transaction units outperformed the market¹.

● First quarter operating costs were $80.5 million, a 12% increase compared to the first quarter of 2023. This increase was driven by strategic investments in personnel to support increased transaction volumes and agent NPS and increased severance and legal expenses.

● First quarter adjusted EBITDA³ (a non-GAAP financial measure) of $11.0 million, a decrease of 24% compared to the same period in previous year. Adjusted EBITDA was lower year over year, due to higher operating costs partially offset by higher revenue, net of agent commission and other agent-related costs.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, this chat deck includes references to adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and adjusted operating cash flow, which are non-U.S. GAAP financial measures that may be different from similarly titled measures used by other companies. These measures are presented to enhance investors’ overall understanding of the Company’s financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about financial performance, enhance the overall understanding of past performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management for financial and operational decision-making. These measures may also provide an additional tool for investors to use in comparing core financial performance over multiple periods with other companies in the industry.

● Adjusted EBITDA helps identify underlying trends in the business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the expenses excluded in adjusted EBITDA. In particular, the Company believes the exclusion of stock and stock option expenses provides a useful supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of operations and provides better transparency into results of operations. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA to mean net income (loss) from continuing operations, excluding other income (expense), income tax benefit (expense), depreciation, amortization, impairment charges, litigation contingency expenses, stock-based compensation expense, and stock option expense.

● Adjusted net (loss) income excludes significant non-operating related expenses that management does not consider ongoing in nature. The Company defines adjusted net (loss) income as net (loss) income adjusted for net loss from discontinued operations and the after-tax impact of the litigation contingency accrual.

● Adjusted operating cash flow helps investors see the Company’s performance through the eyes of management. The Company defines adjusted operating cash flow to mean cash flows from operations excluding the change in customer deposits.

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net (loss) income, and adjusted operating cash flow should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
