Comments from Barry M. Gosin, Chief Executive Officer of Newmark1 "I am excited that we delivered growth across every business line. We produced an 18% increase in Investment sales revenues and 46% fee growth in Mortgage brokerage and debt placement, as well as solid growth from Management, Servicing, and Leasing. Our 8% top-line improvement and strong operating leverage produced robust double-digit earnings growth. "Newmark’s leading position in Capital markets, together with our continued investments in new talent, businesses, and expansion of service lines will drive long term outperformance. Fueled by $2 trillion of near-term U.S. commercial and multifamily mortgage maturities, nearly $400 billion of investible dry powder, and a stable interest rate environment, we remain confident in our 2024 full year guidance, as well as our 2026 target of generating 50% Adjusted EBITDA growth over the next two years." |

| Management services, servicing fees, and other | 262.8 | 240.7 | 9.2% | 519.7 | 453.0 | 14.7% |
| Leasing and other commissions | 208.6 | 203.6 | 2.4% | 367.4 | 396.9 | (7.4)% |
| Investment sales | 91.7 | 77.6 | 18.2% | 162.6 | 149.6 | 8.7% |
| Fees from commercial mortgage origination, net | 46.9 | 40.9 | 14.6% | 90.7 | 70.0 | 29.5% |
| OMSR revenues | 23.4 | 23.0 | 1.5% | 39.5 | 37.1 | 6.4% |
| Capital markets | 162.0 | 141.6 | 14.5% | 292.8 | 256.8 | 14.0% |
| Total revenues | 633.4 | 585.8 | 8.1% | 1,179.9 | 1,106.6 | 6.6% |
Management services, servicing fees, and other rose by 9.2%, which reflects growth from Valuation & Advisory, Servicing, and GCS. Newmark increased revenues from Leasing and other commissions by 2.4%, led by nearly 16% growth in office.
The Company increased Investment sales fees by 18.2%, which reflected significantly higher industrial and office volumes. This meaningfully outpaced the industry. Newmark's debt business once again gained considerable market share, as Fees from commercial mortgage origination, net, increased by 14.6%, led by approximately 46% growth in Mortgage brokerage and debt placement fees. This was partially offset by a decline in GSE/FHA origination fees, which were impacted by an over 27% decline in U.S. GSE volumes.
CONSOLIDATED EXPENSES5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Consolidated Expenses
(USD millions) | 2Q24 | 2Q23 | Change | YTD 2024 | YTD 2023 | Change |
| Compensation and employee benefits under GAAP | $377.5 | $346.9 | 8.8% | $705.7 | $675.3 | 4.5% |
| Equity-based compensation and allocations of net income to limited partnership units and FPUs | 25.5 | 19.6 | 30.0% | 76.9 | 55.3 | 39.2% |
| Non-compensation expenses under GAAP | 195.3 | 195.7 | (0.2)% | 384.7 | 361.3 | 6.5% |
| Total expenses under GAAP | 598.3 | 562.2 | 6.4% | 1,167.4 | 1,091.8 | 6.9% |
| Pass through compensation expenses under GAAP | 40.1 | 35.6 | 12.8% | 81.1 | 73.7 | 10.1% |
| Other compensation and employee benefits | 337.2 | 311.3 | 8.3% | 623.5 | 600.7 | 3.8% |
| Compensation and employee benefits for Adjusted Earnings | 377.3 | 346.9 | 8.8% | 704.6 | 674.4 | 4.5% |
| Pass through non-compensation expenses under GAAP | 37.3 | 32.0 | 16.4% | 70.5 | 57.2 | 23.1% |
| Other non-compensation expenses | 122.1 | 129.0 | (5.3)% | 241.9 | 238.2 | 1.5% |
| Non-compensation expenses for Adjusted Earnings | 159.4 | 161.0 | (1.0)% | 312.4 | 295.4 | 5.7% |
| Total expenses for Adjusted Earnings | 536.7 | 507.9 | 5.7% | 1,016.9 | 969.8 | 4.9% |
| | | | | | |
Compensation expenses reflect improved commission-based revenues, an increase in pass through items, and expenses related to hiring revenue-generating professionals under long term contracts. These were partially offset by the impact of the Company's recently completed $75 million cost savings plan. Excluding pass through items, total expenses for GAAP and Adjusted Earnings increased by 5.3% and 4.3%, respectively.
4 The following items are relevant when analyzing the year-on-year changes in revenues: (i) Newmark's fee revenues grew by 7.5% to $532.6 million in the second quarter of 2024. In the second quarter of 2023, Fees from commercial mortgage origination, net reflected an approximately $947 million Freddie Mac multifamily loan originated by Newmark, which represented 35% of the Company's GSE volumes in that period and was one of the largest GSE loans originated in the U.S. during 2023. For additional information, see the press release titled "Newmark Secures $947 Million Loan for Park La Brea Apartments in Los Angeles, California". (iii) Industry investment sales volumes declined by 2% in the U.S. and Europe in the quarter, according to preliminary data from MSCI. Based on their analysis of historical MBA data and preliminary 2024 MSCI lending data, Newmark Research estimates that overall U.S. commercial and multifamily originations may have declined by over 5% in the quarter, with double digit percentage declines in lending by banks and government entities (such as the GSEs) offsetting significant increases by private credit and CMBS lenders. See today's financial results presentation and the forthcoming quarterly filing on Form 10-Q for more details on these and other industry statistics.
5 Please note following when analyzing the year-on-year changes in expenses: (i) Newmark's pass through compensation and non-compensation expenses are the same for GAAP and non-GAAP results for all periods. (ii) The Company issued substantially more in employee loans in the first half of 2024 than in any prior fiscal year, other than full year 2023. Employee loans are recorded as part of Newmark's balance sheet as "Loans, forgivable loans and other receivables from employees and partners, net" and as part of "Cash Flows from Operating Activities", and primarily relate to the hiring of new revenue-generating professionals under long-term contracts. The forgivable portions of employee loans are recognized as compensation expense for GAAP and non-GAAP results over the life of the loans. These and certain other expenses are recorded beginning in the first applicable quarter, while the relevant professionals may not reach full productivity until their second or third years with the Company. (iii) The Company's compensation charges with respect to grants of exchangeability generally move in the same direction as the Company's stock price. (iv) See "Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" in the Company's filings on Forms 10-Q and/or 10-K and "Non-GAAP Financial Measures” later in this document for information on how non-cash GAAP gains attributable to OMSRs and GAAP amortization of mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) affect GAAP and non-GAAP results.
TAXES AND NONCONTROLLING INTEREST6

| GAAP provision (benefit) for income taxes | $9.0 | $6.7 | 34.6% | $5.5 | $3.7 | 51.0% |
| Provision for income taxes for Adjusted Earnings | 9.7 | 7.6 | 27.6% | 16.2 | 13.8 | 17.4% |

| Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests for Adjusted Earnings | (0.5) | (0.4) | (15.5)% | (1.5) | (1.1) | (29.1)% |
Taxes and net income attributable to noncontrolling interests generally move in tandem with Newmark's earnings. The Company's tax rate for Adjusted Earnings was 15.0% in the second quarter of 2024 compared with 15.1% a year earlier.
CONSOLIDATED SHARE COUNT7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Consolidated Share Count (shares in millions) | 2Q24 | 1Q24 | 2Q23 | YTD 2024 | YTD 2023 | |
| Fully diluted weighted-average share count under GAAP | 255.6 | 174.8 | 245.0 | 174.1 | 173.3 | |
| Fully diluted weighted-average share count for Adjusted Earnings | 255.6 | 255.4 | 245.0 | 255.2 | 242.4 | |
Fully diluted weighted-average share count for Adjusted Earnings was flat compared to the first quarter of 2024. Year-over-year, the appreciation of Newmark’s stock price accelerated the recognition of 2.9 million RSUs, which was not related to the issuance of new shares. Newmark repurchased 5.5 million shares for $55.5 million during the quarter and 9.0 million shares for $92.7 million year to date. As of quarter end, the Company had $262.2 million remaining under its share repurchase and unit redemption authorization.

ONLINE AVAILABILITY OF INVESTOR PRESENTATION AND ADDITIONAL FINANCIAL TABLES
Newmark's quarterly supplemental Excel tables include revenues, earnings, and other metrics for periods from 2018 through the second quarter of 2024. The Excel tables and the Company’s quarterly financial results presentation are available for download at ir.nmrk.com. These materials include other useful information that may not be contained herein.
DIVIDEND INFORMATION
On August 1, 2024, Newmark's Board of Directors (the "Board") declared a qualified quarterly dividend of $0.03 per share payable on September 3, 2024, to Class A and Class B common stockholders of record as of August 16, 2024, which is the same as the ex-dividend date.
6 The table with "other income" under GAAP and for non-GAAP results can be found later in this document.
7 Note following: (i) 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. (ii) Under the GAAP treasury stock method, Newmark's fully diluted share count moves in tandem with its stock price over a given period, all else equal. Because the quarterly average price of its Common Class A shares increased by over 65% year-on-year, the Company accelerated the recognition of 2.9 million weighted average share equivalents over the trailing twelve months. This 2.9 million did not represent the issuance of new RSUs. The increase in Newmark's share price is based on the average daily closing price for the second quarter of 2024 compared with the year earlier as per Bloomberg. Between June 30, 2024 and August 1, 2024, Newmark's share price increased by an additional 25%, which would have a similar impact on the amount of share equivalents recorded in future periods, all else equal. (iii) "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.
8 The following items are relevant when analyzing the year-on-year changes in certain items related to cash flow and the balance sheet: (i) In the first quarter of 2024, Newmark issued $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.5% senior notes due January 2029 (the “Senior Notes”) The Company used the net proceeds to repay all of the $420.0 million then outstanding under its term loan. Any additional net proceeds were used to repay other outstanding revolving debt and used for general corporate purposes. (ii) “Total equity” in this table is the sum of “redeemable partnership interests,” “noncontrolling interests” and “total stockholders' equity”. (ii) “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. (iv) “Liquidity”, when discussed or 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 any related reconciliation tables, when relevant. (v) "Net debt", when used, is defined as total debt, net of cash or, if applicable, total liquidity, while "net leverage", when used, is a non-GAAP measure that equals net debt divided by trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA. (vi) See "Cash generated by the business" under "Other Useful Information" for more on this analytic.
OUTLOOK FOR 20249
| | | | | | | | |
| Metric | FY 2023 Actual | Expected YoY Change (Except for Tax Rate) |

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".
Capital markets
"Fees from commercial mortgage origination, net" includes origination fees related to Newmark's multifamily GSE/FHA10 business (which may be used interchangeably with "Loan originations related fees and sales premiums, net") and fees from Commercial mortgage brokerage and debt placement. Beginning in the second quarter of 2024 and retrospectively, "Capital markets" includes Fees from commercial mortgage origination, net, "Investment sales", and "OMSR revenues".
Leasing and Commission-based revenues
Leasing and other commissions includes fees from landlord (or "agency") representation and tenant (or "occupier") representation. Newmark's "commission-based" revenues include Leasing and other commissions, Fees from commercial mortgage origination, net, Investment sales, and Valuation & Advisory. Brokers and originators in these businesses (who together may be referred to as "producers") and revenue-generating Valuation & Advisory 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 professionals based on this non-cash item.
Recurring revenues
"Servicing and other revenues" may be called Newmark's "servicing business" and includes servicing fees, 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", "recurring businesses", or "management 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 all revenues generated by Spring11. Fees from management services, servicing, and other" are revenues from all recurring businesses excluding Pass through revenues.
9 Please note the following with respect to Newmark's outlook: (i) See the "Consolidated Share Count", including the related footnote, for more background on the Company's updated share count guidance. (ii) The outlook for Adjusted Earnings taxes represents the absolute expect range of the rate. (iii) See “Timing of Outlook for Certain GAAP and Non-GAAP Items” for a discussion of why it is difficult to forecast certain GAAP results without unreasonable effort. (iv) The Company's 2024 guidance excludes the potential impact of any future acquisitions and assumes no meaningful changes in Newmark's stock price compared with the closing price on August 1, 2024. (v) The Company's expectations are subject to change based on various macroeconomic, social, political, and other factors. (vi) None of the targets or goals beyond 2024 should be considered formal guidance.
10 The government-sponsored enterprises ("GSEs") involved in multifamily lending are Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, while "FHA" stands for the Federal Housing Administration.
Beginning in the first quarter of 2024, the portion of Spring11's revenues associated with its servicing and asset management portfolio were no longer reported under "Management services" but were instead recorded as part of "Servicing and other revenues" for all periods from the first quarter of 2023 onwards. This change had no impact on the overall line items "Fees from management services, servicing, and other" and "Management services, servicing fees, and other", or on the Company's consolidated results.
Contractual Business
"Contractual business”, which may be used interchangeably with "contractual services" or "contractual revenues", is defined as business for which the Company has a contract with a client that is generally for a year or longer. Contractual business, when quantified, includes all revenues related to landlord representation (or “agency”) leasing, loan servicing (including escrow interest income), outsourcing (including property management, facilities management, and asset management), and lease administration. It also includes certain fees under contract produced by the Company’s flexible workspace and tenant representation service lines.
Additional details on current and historical amounts for certain of Newmark's revenues are available in the Company's quarterly supplemental Excel tables.

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 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, MSCI 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. The acquisition of the balance of Spring11 significantly increased the size of the Company's overall servicing and asset management portfolio. 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. For more information on these acquisitions, please see the Company's most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and/or the following the press release on its website: "Newmark Acquires Top UK-Based Real Estate Advisory Firm Gerald Eve".
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 "Loans, forgivable loans and other receivables from employees and partners" (which Newmark considers to be a form of investment, but which is recorded as part of Cash Flows from Operating Activities) and the impact of cash used with respect to the 2021 Equity Event.11 For more information, see the section of the Company's quarterly supplemental Excel tables titled "Details of Certain Components Of ‘Net Cash Provided By (Used In) Operating Activities’".
Newmark and Industry Volumes and/or Data
All industry volume figures are preliminary unless otherwise noted. Please see the accompanying supplemental Excel tables and quarterly financial results presentation on the Company's investor relations website, as well as Newmark's forthcoming Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information with respect to volumes for Newmark and/or the industry and for other relevant industry and macroeconomic data. The quarterly results presentation and 10-Q contain or will include detailed sources for such information.
Other Items
Investors may find the following information useful: (i) 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. (ii) Rounding may have also impacted the presentation of certain year-on-year percentage changes. (iii) Decreases in losses may be shown as positive percentage changes in the financial tables. (iv) Changes from negative figures to positive figures may be calculated using absolute values, resulting in positive percentage changes in the tables.

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.
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.
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.
–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.
NET LEVERAGE DEFINED
Newmark may also use a non-GAAP measure called "net leverage.“ "Net debt", when used, is defined as total corporate debt (which excludes Warehouse facilities collateralized by U.S. Government Sponsored Enterprises), net of cash or, if applicable, total liquidity, while "net leverage", when used, equals net debt divided by trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA.
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.

Notes to the above table:
(1) Newmark’s GAAP provision (benefit) for income taxes is calculated based on an annualized methodology. Newmark includes additional tax-deductible items when calculating the provision (benefit) for taxes with respect to Adjusted Earnings using an annualized methodology. These include tax-deductions related to equity-based compensation, and certain net-operating loss carryforwards. The adjustment in the tax provision to reflect Adjusted Earnings is shown below (in millions):

Also includes commission charges related to non-cash GAAP gains attributable to OMSR revenues of $(0.5) million and $(0.3) million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $(0.9) million and $(0.6) million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
(5) Includes Non-cash GAAP charges related to the amortization of intangibles with respect to acquisitions.
(6) Adjusted Earnings calculations exclude non-cash GAAP amortization of mortgage servicing rights (which Newmark refers to as “MSRs”). 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 in future periods.
