Newmark Reports Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results 1
NEW YORK - November 1, 2023 - Newmark Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: NMRK) ("Newmark" or "the Company"), a leading commercial real estate adviser and service provider to large institutional investors, global corporations, and other owners and occupiers, today reported its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, and declared a quarterly dividend.
Comments from Barry M. Gosin, Chief Executive Officer of Newmark1
"Newmark’s strategy of attracting, retaining, and empowering the industry’s best talent resulted in significant market share gains in leasing and capital markets during the quarter. Clients increasingly seek our advice to help navigate the challenging environment and respond to shifting market dynamics. Our deep bench of world-class professionals in all major verticals across our expanding global footprint has enabled us to outpace the industry. We also generated double-digit growth in our recurring businesses during the quarter, as we continue to expand our property management and Global Corporate Services businesses, as well as our higher margin servicing and asset management platforms.
"We significantly outperformed our full service peers in the record market of 2021, and also expect to outperform our peers in the challenging 2023 market. Our model has proven to be resilient and successful across the cycles, and we expect to continue outpacing the industry in the fourth quarter of 2023 by generating double-digit growth in revenues, Adjusted Earnings per share, and Adjusted EBITDA. We also expect to produce full-year Adjusted EBITDA between $375 and $400 million and Adjusted Earnings per share of $1.02 to $1.09. Our strong incremental margins will drive significant revenue and earnings outperformance when industry capital markets volumes recover."

RECENT HIGHLIGHTS3
On October 2, 2023, the FDIC closed on the sale of $18.5 billion of 201 Signature Bridge Bank loans made to private equity funds (representing the fund banking loan portfolio). Newmark served as adviser to the FDIC.
On September 5, 2023, the FDIC announced the sale of the final $33.2 billion of Signature Bridge Bank loans (representing the Commercial Real Estate loan portfolio), which is currently expected to close before year-end. Newmark serves as adviser to the FDIC.
The Company increased recurring revenues from Management services, servicing fees, and other by 14.1% year-on-year in the third quarter. These businesses represented approximately 40% of Newmark's top line over the trailing twelve months, compared with 24% in 2017 (the year of the Company's IPO).
On August 10, 2023, Newmark entered into a $420 million Delayed Draw Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) to repay a portion of the principal and interest related to the Company’s $550 million 6.125% Senior Notes due November 15, 2023 (the “Senior Notes”).
The Company generated $89.1 million of Net cash provided by operating activities excluding loan originations and sales, received $105.5 million from the redemption of a joint venture interest, and used a portion of those funds to reduce Newmark’s outstanding Revolving Credit Facility by $170 million during the quarter.

Total revenues616.3664.6(7.3)%1,722.92,098.2(17.9)%
Fees from management services, servicing, and other grew by 13.0% year-on-year. This improvement was led by the addition of Gerald Eve and growth from Newmark's high margin servicing and asset management business, as well as improvement in GCS fees. Newmark expects its recurring businesses to continue generating double-digit growth in the fourth quarter.
Leasing revenues declined 7.6% in the quarter and 5.0% year-to-date. This performance outpaced mid-teen declines in industry-wide leasing activity, reflecting Newmark’s strength in industrial and retail. The Company's higher margin investment sales and mortgage brokerage businesses gained significant market share in the quarter versus the respective declines of 53% and 51% in U.S. investment sales and commercial/multifamily origination volumes. Based on its current pipeline, Newmark expects its leasing and capital markets businesses to continue to outpace the industry in the fourth quarter.
4 Newmark's fee revenues declined by 9.2% to $521.3 million in the third quarter of 2023. See the section of this document titled "Certain Revenue Terms Defined" for more information on various revenue terms shown above and throughout this document, including the definitions of "Fee revenues", "commission-based" Fees from management services, servicing, and other", Pass through revenues, and "OMSR revenues".

Total expenses for Adjusted Earnings 515.6524.4(1.7)%1,485.41,629.3(8.8)%
The decrease in compensation expenses reflects lower variable compensation that correlates with commission-based revenues, partially offset by expenses related to acquired companies and the addition of revenue-generating professionals. The increase in non-compensation expenses included a $9.8 million rise in pass through costs that equaled their related revenues. Additionally, the change in non-compensation expenses for Adjusted Earnings reflects an $11.4 million increase in costs related to acquired companies and other non-compensation items tied to incremental revenues. These non-compensation changes were largely offset by cost-savings initiatives. Excluding pass through items, total expenses for GAAP and Adjusted Earnings declined by 5.0% and 4.2%, respectively.
Newmark has completed its previously announced $50 million annualized fixed cost reduction target and is increasing the savings target to $75 million. The Company expects to complete the additional $25 million of annualized savings by the second quarter of 2024.

The Company repurchased 2.8 million shares for $18.9 million during the third quarter and 5.1 million shares for $32.3 million in the first nine months of 2023. As of September 30, 2023, Newmark had $360.0 million remaining under its share repurchase and unit redemption authorization.
5 Newmark's Pass through compensation and non-compensation expenses are the same for GAAP and non-GAAP results for all periods. Newly hired generating professionals have historically incurred certain costs immediately but have taken between 6 and 18 months to reach full productivity. Additionally, the borrowing rates on the Company's warehouse facilities are based on short-term SOFR plus applicable margins. Separately, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for information on how non-cash GAAP gains attributable to OMSRs and GAAP amortization of mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) affect non-GAAP results. Newmark's expense reduction targets are based on the Company's annualized run-rate as of the third quarter of 2022, and therefore exclude the impact of any subsequent acquisitions and hires of revenue-generating professionals.
6 The other income table can now be found later in this document.
7 "Spot” may be used interchangeably with the end-of-period share count. Please see the Company's quarterly financial results presentations for information on its spot share count for the relevant periods. Newmark's fully diluted share count moves in tandem with its stock price over a given period, all else equal, due to the treatment of RSUs under the treasury stock method. In addition, the fully diluted weighted-average share count under GAAP may differ in certain periods from the fully diluted weighted-average share count for Adjusted Earnings to avoid anti-dilution, which also impacts GAAP net income for fully diluted shares.

The changes from year-end 2022 reflect cash generated by the business, cash received from the redemption of a joint venture, and $55 million of borrowings under Newmark's revolving credit facility. This was offset by the acquisition of Gerald Eve, investments in new hires under long-term contracts, $32.3 million of share repurchases, other normal movements in working capital, and capital expenditures. As of September 30, 2023, Newmark's net leverage was 1.4 times. The Company expects to repay its Senior Notes by borrowing $420 million under its recently announced Credit Agreement and the remainder from its Revolving Credit Facility.

8Total equity” in this table is the sum of “redeemable partnership interests,” “noncontrolling interests” and “total stockholders' equity”. “Total corporate debt” in this table excludes “Warehouse facilities collateralized by U.S. Government Sponsored Enterprises”. Newmark uses its warehouse lines and repurchase agreements for short-term funding of mortgage loans originated under its GSE and FHA lending programs, and such amounts are generally offset by “Loans held for sale, at fair value” on the balance sheet. These loans are typically sold within 45 days. Loans made using Newmark’s warehouse lines are recourse to Berkeley Point Capital LLC, but non-recourse to Newmark Group. “Liquidity”, when shown, excludes marketable securities that have been financed. Unlike certain other companies' definition of liquidity, Newmark's does not include the value of its undrawn revolving credit line(s). See the section titled “Liquidity Defined” and the related reconciliation tables later in this document. "Net debt", when used, is defined as total debt, net of cash or, if applicable, total liquidity, while "net leverage", when used, equals net debt divided by trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA. See also "Cash generated by the business" under "Other Useful Information" for more on this analytic.

CERTAIN REVENUE TERMS DEFINED
Fee and non-fee revenues
The Company’s total revenues include certain management services revenues that equal their related expenses. These revenues represent fully reimbursable compensation and non-compensation costs recorded as part of Newmark's Global Corporate Services ("GCS") and Property Management businesses. Such revenues therefore have no impact on the Company's GAAP or Non-GAAP earnings measures and may be referred to as "Pass through revenues". The amounts recorded as pass through revenues are also recorded as "pass through expenses". Newmark's total revenues also include non-cash gains with respect to originated mortgage servicing rights (“OMSRs”), which represent the fair value of expected net future cash flows from servicing recognized at commitment, net. Such non-cash gains may also be called "OMSR revenues." Newmark may also refer to Pass through revenues and OMSR revenues together as “non-fee revenues”, and the remainder of its total revenues as "fee revenues".
Commission-based revenues
"Commercial mortgage origination, net" includes origination fees related to Newmark's multifamily GSE/FHA10 business and fees from commercial mortgage brokerage and loan sale advisory (together, "Fees from commercial mortgage origination, net"), and includes all OMSR revenues. Revenues from Investment sales and mortgage brokerage transactions may together be referred to as "capital markets". Newmark's "commission-based" revenues include Leasing and other commissions, Investment sales, fees from commercial mortgage origination, net, and Valuation and Advisory. In these businesses, revenue generating professionals earn a substantial portion or all their compensation based on their production. Commission-based revenues exclude OMSR revenues because Newmark does not compensate its producers based on this non-cash item.
Recurring revenues
"Servicing and other revenues" may be called Newmark's "servicing business" and includes servicing fees (other than those related to Spring11), interest income on loans held for sale, escrow interest, and yield maintenance fees, which all relate primarily to Newmark's multifamily GSE/FHA business. "Management services, servicing fees, and other" (which may also be referred to as "recurring revenues" or "recurring businesses") includes all pass through revenues, as well as fees from Newmark's servicing business, GCS, Property Management, its flexible workspace platform, and Valuation & Advisory, as well as Spring11. "Fees from management services, servicing, and other" are revenues from these same recurring businesses excluding Pass through revenues.
Additional details on current and historical amounts for Newmark's revenues are available in the Company's quarterly supplemental Excel tables.
OTHER USEFUL INFORMATION
The Impact of Nasdaq
The receipt of shares from Nasdaq may also be referred to as the “Earn-out”. In the second quarter of 2021, Newmark recorded a gain of $1,093.9 million related to the final Earn-out, based on the June 30, 2021, closing price of $175.80. Between that date and March 31, 2022, the Company sold 100% of these shares, which contributed to gains in the second through fourth quarters of 2021 and a loss in the first quarter of 2022, all recorded as part of GAAP other income or loss. In aggregate, Newmark sold its Nasdaq stock over this timeframe for the effective price of $180.66 per share, resulting in cumulative proceeds of $1,124.1 million and an additional net gain of $30.2 million.11

11 The effective price per share of Nasdaq was: (a) the sum of all realized gains related to the 6,222,340 shares from June 30, 2021, through March 31, 2022, divided by (b) that number of shares. These realized gains included all proceeds related to open market sales, hedging transactions, and dividends paid to Nasdaq stockholders. The numerator used to calculate the effective price also reflected the 944,329 shares the Company used to settle the 2021 and 2022 Nasdaq Forwards, based on a price of $176.36 per share. Excluding these 944,329 shares, the effective price was $181.43 per share. All Nasdaq closing prices are nominal as of those dates and not adjusted for any subsequent dividends.

The 2021 Equity Event
The "Impact of the 2021 Equity Event" is defined in the section of this document called "Excluded Compensation-Related Items with Respect to the 2021 Equity Event under Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA" under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”. For additional details on how the 2021 Equity Event impacted share count, cash flow, and GAAP expenses, see the section of the Company's second quarter 2021 financial results press release titled "Additional Details About the Impact of Nasdaq and the 2021 Equity Event" and the related SEC filing on Form 8-K, as well as any subsequent disclosures in filings on Forms 10-Q and/or 10-K.
Newmark and Peer Expected Growth
Newmark's publicly traded full service peers for this purpose are U.S. tickers CBRE, CIGI, CWK, and JLL. Its overall peer group also includes U.S. tickers MMI and WD, as well as U.K. ticker SVS. The latter is only included in full year comparisons as they do not report quarterly results. Newmark grew its total revenues and Adjusted EBITDA faster than (i) all of its full service peers in 2021 and (ii) the simple average of its full service peers from 2017 through 2022. The Company's anticipated outperformance is based on the simple averages of: (i) the estimated changes in Adjusted Earnings per share and Adjusted EBITDA for all the peers in full year 2023 and (ii) the estimated changes in revenues, Adjusted Earnings per share, and Adjusted EBITDA for all the peers in the fourth quarter of 2023. The peer estimates are based on the FactSet consensus as of October 31, 2023. Newmark's expected change for these same metrics is based on the mid-point of its updated fourth quarter and full year 2023 outlook.
Recent Acquisitions and Hires
The Company expects to produce more than $325 million of incremental and annualized revenues in a 12-month period starting sometime after 2023 assuming that: (i) Gerald Eve LLP ("Gerald Eve") generates total revenues at least consistent with the £96.1 million of total revenues it recorded for fiscal year 2022, (ii) there is no meaningful change in the relevant exchange rate, and (iii) the professionals Newmark hired in the first nine months of 2023 fully ramp up to generate over $200 million annually. See the accompanying quarterly investor presentation on Newmark's investor relations website for more on this hypothetical scenario.
On March 10, 2023, the Company acquired London-based real estate advisory firm, Gerald Eve, which operates from nine U.K. offices across multiple business lines and property types. The firm generated a majority of its £96.1 million in fiscal year 2022 total revenues from management services, and has particular strength in capital markets, corporate real estate advisory, planning and development, tenant representation, landlord (or agency) leasing, and valuation. For the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2023, RCA ranked Gerald Eve at number three for U.K. industrial investment sales. Newmark also announced the acquisitions of three other companies in the second quarter of 2022. Together, these companies contributed revenues to Newmark's management services, leasing, and investment sales businesses.
In the first quarter of 2023, Newmark purchased the approximately 49% of Spring11 that it did not already own, having held a controlling stake since 2017. Spring11 provides commercial real estate due diligence, consulting, asset management and limited servicing, as well as advisory services to a variety of clients, including lenders, investment banks and investors, and 100% of its revenues are recorded as part of “Management services”.
For more information on these acquisitions, please see the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, its forthcoming Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the following the press releases on its website: "Newmark Acquires Top UK-Based Real Estate Advisory Firm Gerald Eve", "Newmark Acquires Esteemed Boston-Based Firm McCall & Almy", "Newmark Acquires Premier London Capital Markets and Leasing Real Estate Advisory Firm, BH2", and "Newmark Acquires Renowned North American Retail Advisory Business, Open Realty".
For additional information about key hires in 2023, see the Company's investor relations website for press releases including "Newmark Launches Data Center and Digital Infrastructure Capital Markets Business, Attracts Top Talent", "Newmark Hires Norm Taylor as President for Canada", "Newmark Hires Accomplished Industrial Expert Jack Fraker, Fortifying Global Capital Markets Practice", "Newmark Lands Leading U.S. Capital Markets Team", and "Newmark Appoints Chris Carver as Head of Asia-Pacific for its Valuation & Advisory Practice", as well as more than 30 other year-to-date releases and/or articles with respect to new hires in the "Media" section of Newmark's main website.
Cash Generated by the Business
Cash generated by the business means "Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities excluding loan originations and sales", before the impact of cash used for employee loans (which Newmark considers to be a form of investment, but which is recorded as part of operating cash flow) and the impact of cash used with respect to the 2021 Equity Event. For more information, see the section of the Company's most recent quarterly supplemental Excel tables titled "Details of Certain Components Of ‘Net Cash Provided By (Used In) Operating Activities’".
Newmark and Industry Volumes
Newmark’s investment sales figures include investment sales and equity raising transactions, while mortgage brokerage figures include the Company’s debt placement transactions, all measured in notional terms. Volumes from the Company's investment

sales and mortgage brokerage transactions may together be referred to as "capital markets". Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac together are also called the "government-sponsored enterprises" or "GSEs", while the Federal Housing Administration is also called the "FHA." Volumes for Newmark's mortgage brokerage and GSE/FHA originations businesses together may be referred to as "total debt".
The Company calculates its notional GSE/FHA origination volumes based on when loans are rate locked, which is consistent with how certain revenues are recorded as part of "Commercial mortgage origination, net”. The Company’s mix of GSE/FHA originations, and therefore revenues, can vary depending on the size of loans, as well by the categories of loans with respect to the FHA, Freddie Mac, and different Fannie Mae structures. The notional volumes reported by the GSEs are based on when loans are sold and/or securitized, and typically lag those reported by Newmark or estimates from the Mortgage Bankers’ Association ("MBA") by 30 to 45 days. Newmark generally calculates its GSE market share based on delivery for enhanced comparability.
Any overall industry investment sales market share and volume data discussed herein are preliminary and from MSCI Real Capital Analytics ("RCA") and/or Newmark Research, while any GSE data is from Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, the MBA, and/or Newmark Research. Any other U.S. industry debt volumes are from the MBA, RCA, Trepp, and/or Newmark Research.
RCA's preliminary U.S. investment sales figures indicate that Newmark outperformed the industry by approximately 19 percentage points in in the third quarter of 2023, as industry volumes declined by 53% year-on-year while Newmark's U.S. were down by 34%. Over the same period, the Company's total debt volumes declined by 43% while Newmark Research estimates that overall U.S. commercial and multifamily originations may have declined by as much as 51%, based on their analysis of preliminary RCA lending data.12
Costar's recent analysis of new office leases estimate that the past four quarters are down 17% compared with pre-pandemic levels on a square foot basis. Based on their analysis of CoStar data, Wolfe Research estimates that overall U.S. leasing volumes and U.S. office leasing volumes were down by approximately 21% and 23% year-on-year, respectively, in the third quarter of 2023.
Please see the accompanying supplemental Excel tables and quarterly results presentation on the Company's investor relations website for more information with respect to volumes for Newmark and/or the industry.
Other Industry Data
According to RCA, the amount of U.S. distressed commercial and multifamily real estate assets was $79.7 billion at the end of September 2023, which was an increase of 11% compared with three months earlier. The amount of potentially distressed assets was $215.7 billion, at the end of September 2023, which was an increase of 33% compared with three months earlier.
Preqin estimated that there was $406 billion of investible dry powder held by global closed-end funds at real estate-focused institutions as of October 23, 2023. This is in addition to the significant amount of real estate assets held by other types of investors and owners. According to the most recent data from MSCI, the overall size of the professionally managed global real estate investment market was $13.3 trillion in 2022, while the size of the overall investible market was $19.5 trillion. In addition, approximately $2.6 trillion of commercial and multifamily debt needs to be refinanced between 2023 and 2027, with approximately $1.9 trillion of this due in 2023 through 2025. Any industry outstanding debt figures discussed are for the U.S. only and are from Newmark Research, the MBA, Trepp LLC, and/or RCA.
Recent Highlights
For more on the recent highlights mentioned at the beginning of this document, please see: (i) the press release from Public Storage titled "Public Storage Announces Closing of Simply Self Storage Acquisition" and the Newmark press release titled "Newmark Advised Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. on the $2.2 Billion Sale of Simply Self Storage", (ii) the announcements on the FDIC website called "SIGF-23 Sale Announcement $18.5 Billion All Cash Loan Sale" and "SIGCRE-23 Sale Announcement $33.22 Billion Commercial Real Estate Loan Portfolio", (iii) the Newmark press release titled "Newmark Closes $420 Million Senior Unsecured Delayed Draw Term Loan to Repay Senior Notes"; (iv) the Newmark press release titled "Newmark Secures $500M Investment on Behalf of Cold Storage Company, Envision"; and (v) the article titled "Newmark closes sale-leaseback of nine-property industrial portfolio".
Other Items
Throughout this document, certain other reclassifications may have been made to previously reported amounts to conform to the current presentation and to show results on a consistent basis across periods. Unless otherwise stated, any such changes would have had no impact on consolidated total revenues or earnings under GAAP or for Adjusted Earnings, all else being equal. Certain numbers in the tables or elsewhere throughout this document may not sum due to rounding. Rounding may have also impacted the presentation of certain year-on-year percentage changes. Decreases in losses may be shown as positive percentage changes in the financial tables. Changes from negative figures to positive figures may be calculated using absolute values, resulting in positive percentage changes in the tables.
12 Newmark’s total debt for all periods discussed are only generated in the Americas. Its Americas volumes are overwhelmingly generated in the U.S. RCA volumes include the large majority the industry's volumes for transactions of over $2.5 million. RCA figures are often revised upwards over time, as they capture a greater percentage of transactions. While the paragraph only discusses RCA U.S. volumes for Newmark and the industry, the Company's overall investment sales volumes and revenues shown elsewhere may also reflect certain international operations.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This document contains non-GAAP financial measures that differ from the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States ("GAAP"). Non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company include "Adjusted Earnings before noncontrolling interests and taxes", which is used interchangeably with "pre-tax Adjusted Earnings"; "Post-tax Adjusted Earnings to fully diluted shareholders", which is used interchangeably with "post-tax Adjusted Earnings"; "Adjusted EBITDA"; and "Liquidity". The definitions of these and other non-GAAP terms are below.
The Company has made certain clarifications of and/or changes to its non-GAAP measures, including “Calculation of Non-Compensation Expense Adjustments for Adjusted Earnings” that will be applicable for reporting periods beginning with the third quarter of 2023 and thereafter, as described below.
Historically, Adjusted Earnings excluded gains or charges related to resolutions of litigation, disputes, investigations, or enforcement matters that are generally non-recurring, exceptional, or unusual, or similar items that that management believes do not best reflect Newmark’s underlying operating performance. To help management and investors best assess Newmark’s underlying operating performance and for the Company to best facilitate strategic planning, beginning with the third quarter of 2023 and thereafter, calculations of Adjusted Earnings will also exclude unaffiliated third-party professional fees and expense related to these items. Newmark has not modified any prior period non-GAAP measures, as it has determined such amounts were immaterial to previously reported results.
ADJUSTED EARNINGS DEFINED
Newmark uses non-GAAP financial measures, including “Adjusted Earnings before noncontrolling interests and taxes” and “Post-tax Adjusted Earnings to fully diluted shareholders”, which are supplemental measures of operating results used by management to evaluate the financial performance of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. Newmark believes that Adjusted Earnings best reflect the operating earnings generated by the Company on a consolidated basis and are the earnings which management considers when managing its business.
As compared with “Income (loss) before income taxes and noncontrolling interests” and “Net income (loss) for fully diluted shares”, both prepared in accordance with GAAP, Adjusted Earnings calculations primarily exclude certain non-cash items and other expenses that generally do not involve the receipt or outlay of cash by the Company and/or which do not dilute existing stockholders, as well as certain gains and charges that management believes do not best reflect the underlying operating performance of Newmark. Adjusted Earnings is calculated by taking the most comparable GAAP measures and making adjustments for certain items with respect to compensation expenses, non-compensation expenses, and other income, as discussed below.
CALCULATIONS OF COMPENSATION ADJUSTMENTS FOR ADJUSTED EARNINGS AND ADJUSTED EBITDA
Treatment of Equity-Based Compensation under Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA
The Company’s Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA measures exclude all GAAP charges included in the line item “Equity-based compensation and allocations of net income to limited partnership units and FPUs” (or “equity-based compensation” for purposes of defining the Company’s non-GAAP results) as recorded on the Company’s GAAP Consolidated Statements of Operations and GAAP Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. These GAAP equity-based compensation charges reflect the following items:
Charges with respect to grants of exchangeability, which reflect the right of holders of limited partnership units with no capital accounts, such as LPUs and PSUs, to exchange these units into shares of common stock, or into partnership units with capital accounts, such as HDUs, as well as cash paid with respect to taxes withheld or expected to be owed by the unit holder upon such exchange. The withholding taxes related to the exchange of certain non-exchangeable units without a capital account into either common stock or partnership units with a capital account may be funded by the redemption of preferred units such as PPSUs.
Charges with respect to preferred units. Any preferred units would not be included in the Company’s fully diluted share count because they cannot be made exchangeable into shares of common stock and are entitled only to a fixed distribution. Preferred units are granted in connection with the grant of certain limited partnership units that may be granted exchangeability or redeemed in connection with the grant of shares of common stock at ratios designed to cover any withholding taxes expected to be paid. The Company believes that this is an acceptable alternative to the common practice among public companies of issuing the gross amount of shares to employees, subject to cashless withholding of shares, to pay applicable withholding taxes.
GAAP equity-based compensation charges with respect to the grant of an offsetting amount of common stock or partnership units with capital accounts in connection with the redemption of non-exchangeable units, including PSUs and LPUs.
Charges related to amortization of restricted stock units (“RSUs”), limited partnership units, restricted stock awards, other equity-based awards.
Charges related to grants of equity awards, including common stock, RSUs, restricted stock awards, or partnership units with capital accounts.
Allocations of net income to limited partnership units and FPUs. Such allocations represent the pro-rata portion of post-tax GAAP earnings available to such unit holders.

11




The amount of certain quarterly equity-based compensation charges is based upon the Company’s estimate of such expected charges during the annual period, as described further below under “Methodology for Calculating Adjusted Earnings Taxes”.
Virtually all of Newmark’s key executives and producers have equity or partnership stakes in the Company and its subsidiaries and generally receive deferred equity or limited partnership units as part of their compensation. A significant percentage of Newmark’s fully diluted shares are owned by its executives, partners, and employees. The Company issues limited partnership units, RSUs, restricted stock, as well as other forms of equity-based compensation, including grants of exchangeability into shares of common stock, to provide liquidity to its employees, to align the interests of its employees and management with those of common stockholders, to help motivate and retain key employees, and to encourage a collaborative culture that drives cross-selling and growth.
All share equivalents that are part of the Company’s equity-based compensation program, including REUs, PSUs, LPUs, certain HDUs, and other units that may be made exchangeable into common stock, as well as RSUs (which are recorded using the treasury stock method), are included in the fully diluted share count when issued or at the beginning of the subsequent quarter after the date of grant. Generally, limited partnership units (other than preferred units) are expected to be paid a pro-rata distribution based on Newmark’s calculation of Adjusted Earnings per fully diluted share.
Certain Other Compensation-Related Items under Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA
Newmark also excludes various other GAAP items that management views as not reflective of the Company’s underlying performance for the given period from its calculation of Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA. These may include compensation-related items with respect to cost-saving initiatives, such as severance charges incurred in connection with headcount reductions as part of broad restructuring and/or cost savings plans.
The Company also excludes compensation charges related to non-cash GAAP gains attributable to originated mortgage servicing rights (“OMSRs”) because these gains are also excluded from Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA. OMSRs represent the fair value of expected net future cash flows from servicing recognized at commitment, net.
Excluded Compensation-Related Items with Respect to the 2021 Equity Event under Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA
Newmark does not view the cash GAAP compensation charges related to 2021 Equity Event (the "Impact of the 2021 Equity Event") as being reflective of its ongoing operations. These consisted of charges relating to cash paid to independent contractors for their withholding taxes and the cash redemption of HDUs. These had been recorded as expenses based on Newmark's previous non-GAAP definitions, but were excluded in the recast non-GAAP results beginning in the third quarter of 2021 for the following reasons:
But for the 2021 Equity Event, the items comprising such charges would have otherwise been settled in shares and been recorded as equity-based compensation in future periods, as is the Company's normal practice. Had this occurred, such amounts would have been excluded from Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA and would also have resulted in higher fully diluted share counts, all else equal.
Newmark views the fully diluted share count reduction related to the 2021 Equity Event to be economically similar to the common practice among public companies of issuing the net amount of common shares to employees for their vested stock-based compensation, selling a portion of the gross shares pay applicable withholding taxes, and separately making open market repurchases of common shares.
There was nothing comparable to the 2021 Equity Event in 2020 and nothing similar is currently contemplated after 2021. Accordingly, the only prior period recast with respect to the 2021 Equity Event was the second quarter of 2021.
Calculation of Non-Compensation Expense Adjustments for Adjusted Earnings
Newmark’s calculation of pre-tax Adjusted Earnings excludes GAAP gains or charges related to the following:
Non-cash amortization of intangibles with respect to acquisitions.
Other acquisition-related costs, including unaffiliated third-party professional fees and expenses.
Resolutions of non-recurring, exceptional or unusual gains or charges related to resolutions of litigation, disputes, investigations, or enforcement matters that are generally non-recurring, exceptional, or unusual, or similar items that that management believes do not best reflect Newmark’s underlying operating performance, including related unaffiliated third-party professional fees and expenses.
Non-cash gains attributable to OMSRs.
Non-cash amortization of mortgage servicing rights (which Newmark refers to as “MSRs”). Under GAAP, the Company recognizes OMSRs equal to the fair value of servicing rights retained on mortgage loans originated and sold. Subsequent to the initial recognition at fair value, MSRs are carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value and amortized in proportion to the net servicing revenue expected to be earned. However, it is expected that any cash received with respect to these servicing rights, net of associated expenses, will increase Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA in future periods.
Various other GAAP items that management views as not reflective of the Company’s underlying performance for the given period, including non-compensation-related charges incurred as part of broad restructuring and/or cost savings plans. Such GAAP items may include charges for exiting leases and/or other long-term contracts as part of cost-saving initiatives, as well as non-cash impairment charges related to assets, goodwill, and/or intangible assets created from acquisitions.

Calculation of Other income (loss) for Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted Earnings calculations also exclude certain other non-cash, non-dilutive, and/or non-economic items, which may in some periods include:
Unusual, non-ordinary or non-recurring gains or charges.
Non-cash GAAP asset impairment charges.
Gains or losses on divestitures.
The impact of any unrealized non-cash mark-to-market gains or losses on “Other income (loss)” related to the variable share forward agreements with respect to Newmark’s receipt of the payments from Nasdaq, Inc. (“Nasdaq”), in 2021 and 2022 and the 2020 Nasdaq payment (the “Nasdaq Forwards”).
Mark-to-market adjustments for non-marketable investments.
Certain other non-cash, non-dilutive, and/or non-economic items.
Due to Nasdaq’s sale of its U.S. fixed income business in the second quarter of 2021, the Nasdaq Earn-out and related Forward settlements were accelerated, less certain previously disclosed adjustments. Because these shares were originally expected to be received over a 15 year period ending in 2027, the Earn-out had been included in calculations of Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA under Newmark's previous non-GAAP methodology. Due to the acceleration of the Earn-out and the Nasdaq Forwards, the Company now views results excluding certain items related to the Earn-out to be a better reflection of the underlying performance of Newmark’s ongoing operations. Therefore, beginning with the third quarter of 2021, other income (loss) for Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA also excludes the impact of the below items from relevant periods. These items may collectively be referred to as the "Impact of Nasdaq".
Realized gains related to the accelerated receipt on June 25, 2021, of Nasdaq shares.
Realized gains or losses and unrealized mark-to-market gains or losses with respect to Nasdaq shares received prior to the Earn-out acceleration.
The impact of any unrealized non-cash mark-to-market gains or losses on “Other income (loss)” related to the Nasdaq Forwards. This item was historically excluded under the previous non-GAAP definitions.
Other items related to the Earn-out.
Newmark's calculations of non-GAAP “Other income (loss)” for certain prior periods includes dividend income on its Nasdaq shares, as these dividends contributed to cash flow and were generally correlated to Newmark's interest expense on short term borrowing against such shares. As Newmark sold 100% of these shares between the third quarter of 2021 and the first quarter of 2022, both its interest expense and dividend income declined accordingly.
METHODOLOGY FOR CALCULATING ADJUSTED EARNINGS TAXES
Although Adjusted Earnings are calculated on a pre-tax basis, Newmark also reports post-tax Adjusted Earnings to fully diluted shareholders. The Company defines post-tax Adjusted Earnings to fully diluted shareholders as pre-tax Adjusted Earnings reduced by the non-GAAP tax provision described below and net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest for Adjusted Earnings.
The Company calculates its tax provision for post-tax Adjusted Earnings using an annual estimate similar to how it accounts for its income tax provision under GAAP. To calculate the quarterly tax provision under GAAP, Newmark estimates its full fiscal year GAAP Income (loss) before income taxes and noncontrolling interests and the expected inclusions and deductions for income tax purposes, including expected equity-based compensation during the annual period. The resulting annualized tax rate is applied to Newmark’s quarterly GAAP income before income taxes and noncontrolling interests. At the end of the annual period, the Company updates its estimate to reflect the actual tax amounts owed for the period.
To determine the non-GAAP tax provision, Newmark first adjusts pre-tax Adjusted Earnings by recognizing any, and only, amounts for which a tax deduction applies under applicable law. The amounts include charges with respect to equity-based compensation, certain charges related to employee loan forgiveness, certain net operating loss carryforwards when taken for statutory purposes, and certain charges related to tax goodwill amortization. These adjustments may also reflect timing and measurement differences, including treatment of employee loans, changes in the value of units between the dates of grants of exchangeability and the date of actual unit exchange, changes in the value of RSUs and/or restricted stock awards between the date of grant and the date the award vests, variations in the value of certain deferred tax assets and liabilities, and the different timing of permitted deductions for tax under GAAP and statutory tax requirements.
After application of these adjustments, the result is the Company’s taxable income for its pre-tax Adjusted Earnings, to which Newmark then applies the statutory tax rates to determine its non-GAAP tax provision. Newmark views the effective tax rate on pre-tax Adjusted Earnings as equal to the amount of its non-GAAP tax provision divided by the amount of pre-tax Adjusted Earnings.
Generally, the most significant factor affecting this non-GAAP tax provision is the amount of charges relating to equity-based compensation. Because the charges relating to equity-based compensation are deductible in accordance with applicable tax laws, increases in such charges have the effect of lowering the Company’s non-GAAP effective tax rate and thereby increasing its post-tax Adjusted Earnings.

13




Newmark incurs income tax expenses based on the location, legal structure, and jurisdictional taxing authorities of each of its subsidiaries. Certain of the Company’s entities are taxed as U.S. partnerships and are subject to the Unincorporated Business Tax (“UBT”) in New York City. Any U.S. federal and state income tax liability or benefit related to the partnership income or loss, with the exception of UBT, rests with the unit holders rather than with the partnership entity. The Company’s consolidated financial statements include U.S. federal, state, and local income taxes on the Company’s allocable share of the U.S. results of operations. Outside of the U.S., Newmark is expected to operate principally through subsidiary corporations subject to local income taxes. For these reasons, taxes for Adjusted Earnings are expected to be presented to show the tax provision the consolidated Company would expect to pay if 100% of earnings were taxed at global corporate rates.
CALCULATIONS OF PRE- AND POST-TAX ADJUSTED EARNINGS PER SHARE
Newmark’s pre-tax Adjusted Earnings and post-tax Adjusted Earnings per share calculations assume either that:
The fully diluted share count includes the shares related to any dilutive instruments, but excludes the associated expense, net of tax, when the impact would be dilutive; or
The fully diluted share count excludes the shares related to these instruments, but includes the associated expense, net of tax ,when the impact would be anti-dilutive.
The share count for Adjusted Earnings excludes certain shares and share equivalents expected to be issued in future periods but not yet eligible to receive dividends and/or distributions. Each quarter, the dividend payable to Newmark’s stockholders, if any, is expected to be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors with reference to a number of factors. Newmark may also pay a pro-rata distribution of net income to limited partnership units, as well as to Cantor for its noncontrolling interest.
The declaration, payment, timing, and amount of any future dividends payable by the Company will be at the discretion of its Board of Directors using the fully diluted share count. For more information on any share count adjustments, see the table of this document and/or the Company’s most recent financial results press release titled “Fully Diluted Weighted-Average Share Count for GAAP and Adjusted Earnings.”
MANAGEMENT RATIONALE FOR USING ADJUSTED EARNINGS
Newmark’s calculation of Adjusted Earnings excludes the items discussed above because they are either non-cash in nature, because the anticipated benefits from the expenditures are not expected to be fully realized until future periods, or because the Company views results excluding these items as a better reflection of the underlying performance of Newmark’s ongoing operations.
Management uses Adjusted Earnings in part to help it evaluate, among other things, the overall performance of the Company’s business and to make decisions with respect to the Company’s operations. The term “Adjusted Earnings” should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to GAAP net income (loss). The Company views Adjusted Earnings as a metric that is not indicative of liquidity, or the cash available to fund its operations, but rather as a performance measure. Pre- and post-tax Adjusted Earnings, as well as related measures, are not intended to replace the Company’s presentation of its GAAP financial results. However, management believes that these measures help provide investors with a clearer understanding of Newmark’s financial performance and offer useful information to both management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends related to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Management believes that the GAAP and Adjusted Earnings measures of financial performance should be considered together.
For more information regarding Adjusted Earnings, see the sections of this document and/or the Company’s most recent financial results press release titled "Reconciliation of GAAP Net Income to Common Stockholders to Adjusted Earnings Before Noncontrolling Interests and Taxes and GAAP Fully Diluted EPS to Post-Tax Adjusted EPS”, including the related footnotes, for details about how Newmark’s non-GAAP results are reconciled to those under GAAP.
ADJUSTED EBITDA DEFINED
Newmark also provides an additional non-GAAP financial performance measure, “Adjusted EBITDA”, which it defines as GAAP “Net income (loss) available to common stockholders”, adjusted for the following items:
Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest.
Provision (benefit) for income taxes.
OMSR revenue.
MSR amortization.
Compensation charges related to OMSRs.
Fixed asset depreciation and intangible asset amortization.
Equity-based compensation and allocations of net income to limited partnership units and FPUs.
Various other GAAP items that management views as not reflective of the Company’s underlying performance for the given period. These may include compensation-related items with respect to cost-saving initiatives, such as severance charges incurred in connection with headcount reductions as part of broad restructuring and/or cost savings plans; charges for exiting leases and/or other long-term contracts as part of cost-saving initiatives; and non-cash impairment charges related to assets, goodwill and/or intangibles created from acquisitions.

14




Other non-cash, non-dilutive, and/or non-economic items, which may, in certain periods, include the impact of any unrealized non-cash mark-to-market gains or losses on “other income (loss)” related to the Nasdaq Forwards, as well as mark-to-market adjustments for non-marketable investments.
Interest expense.
The Impact of Nasdaq and the Impact of the 2021 Equity Event, (together, the "Impact of Nasdaq and the 2021 Equity Event"), which are defined above.
MANAGEMENT RATIONALE FOR USING ADJUSTED EBITDA
Newmark’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items discussed above because they are either non-cash in nature, because the anticipated benefits from the expenditures are not expected to be fully realized until future periods, or because the Company views excluding these items as a better reflection of the underlying performance Newmark’s ongoing operations. The Company’s management believes that its Adjusted EBITDA measure is useful in evaluating Newmark’s operating performance, because the calculation of this measure generally eliminates 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, the Company’s management uses this measure to evaluate operating performance and for other discretionary purposes. Newmark believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors to assist them in getting a more complete picture of the Company’s financial results and operations.
Since Newmark’s Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized measurement under GAAP, investors should use this measure in addition to GAAP measures of net income when analyzing Newmark’s operating performance. Because not all companies use identical EBITDA calculations, the Company’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Furthermore, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow or GAAP cash flow from operations, because the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA does not consider certain cash requirements, such as tax and debt service payments.
For more information regarding Adjusted EBITDA, see the section of this document and/or the Company’s most recent financial results press release titled “Reconciliation of GAAP Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA”, including the related footnotes, for details about how Newmark’s non-GAAP results are reconciled to those under GAAP.
LIQUIDITY DEFINED
Newmark may also use a non-GAAP measure called “liquidity”. The Company considers liquidity to be comprised of the sum of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, and reverse repurchase agreements (if any), less securities lent out in securities loaned transactions and repurchase agreements. The Company considers liquidity to be an important metric for determining the amount of cash that is available or that could be readily available to the Company on short notice. For more information regarding liquidity, see the section of this document and/or the Company’s most recent financial results press release titled “Liquidity Analysis”, including any related footnotes, for details about how Newmark’s non-GAAP results are reconciled to those under GAAP.
TIMING OF OUTLOOK FOR CERTAIN GAAP AND NON-GAAP ITEMS
Newmark anticipates providing forward-looking guidance for GAAP revenues and for certain non-GAAP measures from time to time. However, the Company does not anticipate providing an outlook for other GAAP results. This is because certain GAAP items, which are excluded from Adjusted Earnings and/or Adjusted EBITDA, are difficult to forecast with precision before the end of each period. The Company therefore believes that it is not possible for it to have the required information necessary to forecast GAAP results or to quantitatively reconcile GAAP forecasts to non-GAAP forecasts with sufficient precision without unreasonable efforts. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. The relevant items that are difficult to predict on a quarterly and/or annual basis with precision and may materially impact the Company’s GAAP results include, but are not limited, to the following:
Certain equity-based compensation charges that may be determined at the discretion of management .
Unusual, non-ordinary, or non-recurring items.
The impact of gains or losses on certain marketable securities, as well as any gains or losses related to associated mark-to- market movements and/or hedging. These items are calculated using period-end closing prices.
Non-cash asset impairment charges, which are calculated and analyzed based on the period-end values of the underlying assets. These amounts may not be known until after period-end.
Acquisitions, dispositions, and/or resolutions of litigation, disputes, investigations, enforcement matters, or similar items, which are fluid and unpredictable in nature.
