CoStar Group Successfully Launches Monetization of Homes.com in First Quarter 2024, with $39 Million of Net New Bookings Accelerating Overall Net New Bookings to a Record $86 Million

CoStar Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSGP), a leading provider of online real estate marketplaces, information and analytics in the property markets, announced today that revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 was $656 million, up 12% over revenue of $584 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. Net income was $7 million in the first quarter and net income per diluted share was $0.02 for the first quarter of 2024.

“CoStar Group delivered exceptional revenue, sales and marketplace traffic results in the first quarter of 2024, fueled by the launch of our monetization of Homes.com on February 12th of this year,” said Andy Florance, Founder and CEO of CoStar Group. “With less than two months of selling in the first quarter, Homes.com membership subscriptions reached nearly $40 million in net new bookings. This is by far the strongest sales launch of any product in the company’s history, and we are raising our sales and revenue forecast for Homes.com for the full year 2024. Sales of Homes.com memberships were supported by strong Residential Network1 traffic which reached a record 156 million monthly unique visitors in March, according to Google Analytics. We believe that Homes.com is now one of two most heavily trafficked residential marketplace portals in the U.S. Our aggressive marketing campaign successfully catapulted our unaided awareness from 4% in the fourth quarter of 2023 to 24% by the end of March 2024,” said Florance.

“I’m thrilled to report that our sales team delivered our highest ever quarterly net new bookings of $86 million in the first quarter of 2024,” continued Florance. “Overall revenue grew 12% year-over-year, with Apartments.com delivering over 20% revenue growth for the fifth consecutive quarter, and CoStar growing revenue 11% in the first quarter. Both Apartments.com and CoStar crossed $250 million of revenue in the first quarter to become our first and second businesses to reach $1 billion in annualized run rate revenue.”

2024 Outlook

“We are off to a strong start in the first quarter of 2024 and are raising our full year revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance,” said Scott Wheeler, CFO of CoStar Group. The Company now expects revenue in the range of $2.76 billion to $2.77 billion for the full year of 2024, representing revenue growth of approximately 13% year-over-year at the midpoint of the range. The Company expects revenue for the second quarter of 2024 in the range of $674 million to $679 million, representing revenue growth of approximately 12% year-over-year at the midpoint of the range.

“We now expect adjusted EBITDA for the full year of 2024 in the range of $185 million to $205 million, an increase of $15 million at the midpoint of the range from our previous guidance. For the second quarter of 2024, we expect adjusted EBITDA in the range of $5 million to $10 million.”

The Company expects full year 2024 non-GAAP net income per diluted share in a range of $0.58 to $0.62 based on 409 million shares. For the second quarter of 2024, the Company expects non-GAAP net income per diluted share in a range of $0.09 to $0.10 based on 409 million shares. These ranges include an estimated non-GAAP tax rate of 26% for the full year and the second quarter of 2024.

The preceding forward-looking statements reflect CoStar Group’s expectations as of April 23, 2024, including forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures on a consolidated basis, based on current estimates, expectations, observations, and trends. Given the risk factors, rapidly evolving economic environment, and uncertainties and assumptions discussed in this release and in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and annual reports on Form 10-K, actual results may differ materially. Other than in publicly available statements, the Company does not intend to update its forward-looking statements until its next quarterly results announcement.

Reconciliations of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are shown in detail below, along with definitions for those terms. A reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP guidance to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, net income, can be found within the tables included in this release.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

For information regarding the purpose for which management uses the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this release and why management believes they provide useful information to investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, please refer to the Company’s latest periodic report.

EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP net income attributable to CoStar Group before interest income or expense, net and other income or expense, net; loss on debt extinguishment; income taxes and depreciation and amortization expense.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents EBITDA before stock-based compensation expense, acquisition- and integration-related costs, restructuring costs, and settlements and impairments incurred outside the Company’s ordinary course of business. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents adjusted EBITDA divided by revenues for the period.

Non-GAAP net income is a non-GAAP financial measure determined by adjusting GAAP net income attributable to CoStar Group for stock-based compensation expense, acquisition- and integration-related costs, restructuring costs, settlement and impairment costs incurred outside the Company's ordinary course of business and loss on debt extinguishment, as well as amortization of acquired intangible assets and other related costs, and then subtracting an assumed provision for income taxes. In 2024, the Company is assuming a 26% tax rate in order to approximate its statutory corporate tax rate excluding the impact of discrete items.

Non-GAAP net income per diluted share is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents non-GAAP net income divided by the number of diluted shares outstanding for the period used in the calculation of GAAP net income per diluted share. For periods with GAAP net losses and non-GAAP net income, the weighted average outstanding shares used to calculate non-GAAP net income per share includes potentially dilutive securities that were excluded from the calculation of GAAP net income per share as the effect was anti-dilutive.

Operating Metrics

Net new bookings is calculated based on the annualized amount of change in the Company's sales bookings resulting from new subscription-based contracts, changes to existing subscription-based contracts and cancellations of subscription-based contracts for the period reported. Information regarding net new bookings is not comparable to, nor should it be substituted for, an analysis of the Company's revenues over time.

Earnings Conference Call

Management will conduct a conference call to discuss the first quarter 2024 results and the Company’s outlook at 5:00 PM ET on Tuesday, April 23, 2024. A live audio webcast of the conference will be available in listen-only mode through the Investors section of the CoStar Group website: https://investors.costargroup.com. A replay of the webcast audio will also be available in the Investors section of our website for a period of time following the call.

This news release and the Company’s earnings conference call contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements about CoStar Group's plans, objectives, expectations, beliefs and intentions and other statements including words such as “hope,” “anticipate,” “may,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “will,” “should,” “plan,” “estimate,” “predict,” “continue” and “potential” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Such statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of management of CoStar Group and are subject to many risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from the results anticipated in the forward-looking statements and the assumptions and estimates used as a basis for the forward-looking statements. The following factors, among others, could cause or contribute to such differences: risks associated with the ability to consummate the proposed transaction with Matterport, Inc. ("Matterport") and the timing of the closing of the proposed transaction; the ability to successfully integrate operations and employees; the ability to realize anticipated benefits and synergies of the proposed mergers as rapidly or to the extent anticipated by financial analysts or investors; the potential impact of announcement of the proposed mergers or consummation of the proposed Matterport transaction on business relationships, including with employees, customers, suppliers and competitors; unfavorable outcomes of any legal proceedings that have been or may be instituted against CoStar or Matterport; the ability to retain key personnel; costs, fees, expenses and charges related to the proposed Matterport transaction; the risk that the trends stated or implied by this release or in the earnings conference call cannot or will not be sustained at the current pace or may increase or decrease, including trends and expectations related to revenue, revenue growth, net income, non-GAAP net income, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, sales, net new bookings, site traffic and visitors, leads, and renewal rates; the risk that the Company is unable to sustain current Company-wide or Homes.com net new bookings; the risk that revenues for the second quarter and full year 2024 will not be as stated in this press release; the risk that net income for the second quarter and full year 2024 will not be as stated in this press release; the risk that EBITDA for the second quarter and full year 2024 will not be as stated in this press release; the risk that adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter and full year 2024 will not be as stated in this press release; the risk that non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share for the second quarter and full year 2024 will not be as stated in this press release; the risk that we may not successfully integrate acquired businesses or assets and may not achieve anticipated benefits of an acquisition, including expected synergies; the risk that the tax rate estimates stated in this press release may change and the risk that we may experience declines in our revenues, revenue growth rates and profitability due to the impact of economic conditions on the real estate industry and our core customer base.
