Service line fee revenue represents revenue for fees generated from each of our service lines. |

Gross contract reimbursables reflects revenue from clients which have substantially no margin. |
|

See the end of this press release for reconciliations of (i) Net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA and (ii) Net income (loss) to Adjusted net income and for explanations of the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted earnings per share, diluted. See also the definition of, and a description of the purposes for which management uses, these non-GAAP financial measures under the “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section in this press release. |
|
(4) |
For all periods with a GAAP net loss, weighted average shares outstanding, diluted is only used to calculate Adjusted earnings per share, diluted. For all periods with a GAAP net loss, all potentially dilutive shares would be anti-dilutive; therefore, both basic and diluted loss per share are calculated using weighted average shares outstanding, basic. |
|
(5) |
In order to assist our investors and improve comparability of results, we present the period-over-period changes in certain of our non-GAAP financial measures, such as Adjusted EBITDA, in “local” currency. The local currency change represents the period-over-period change assuming no movement in foreign exchange rates from the prior period. We believe that this presentation provides our management and investors with a better view of comparability and trends in the underlying operating business. |
First Quarter Results (unaudited)
Revenue
Revenue of $2.3 billion increased $99.8 million or 5% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily driven by Leasing revenue growth in the Americas, which grew 14% due to strong tenant representation revenue in the office and industrial sectors, including a relatively higher number of large deals. Capital markets revenue increased 11% due to broad strength across all segments, led by APAC, as rate stability, improved debt market liquidity and built-up demand positively impacted investment sales activity in the first quarter of 2025. Services revenue decreased 1% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily driven by the sale of a non-core Services business in August 2024, which reduced facilities management and Gross contract reimbursables revenue by $26.2 million and $18.4 million, respectively. Excluding the impact of this sale, Services and Gross contract reimbursables revenue increased 3% and 11%, respectively, and total revenue increased 7%. Services revenue also benefited as a result of higher facilities services revenue, partially offset by lower project management revenue principally in EMEA. In addition, Valuation and other revenue increased 1%.
Costs of services
Costs of services of $1.9 billion increased $67.8 million or 4% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, principally driven by an increase in employment costs of approximately $60.0 million, including higher commissions as a result of higher brokerage revenue, as well as an increase in third-party consumables and sub-contractor costs of approximately $11.0 million. Cost of services provided to clients increased 1% and Cost of gross contract reimbursables increased 8%.
Operating, administrative and other
Operating, administrative and other expenses of $305.8 million increased $9.8 million or 3% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily driven by an $8.0 million increase in stock-based compensation expense attributable to improved vesting expectations for certain previously granted performance-based equity awards.
Restructuring, impairment and related charges
Restructuring, impairment and related charges of $6.5 million increased $1.5 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, due to an impairment loss on real estate investments of $6.5 million recognized in the first quarter of 2025, partially offset by a decrease in severance and employment-related costs of approximately $5.0 million associated with previous cost savings initiatives.
Interest expense, net of interest income
Interest expense of $52.3 million decreased $6.4 million or 11% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily driven by lower outstanding principal balances on our term loans following optional principal prepayments made in 2024 and 2025, as well as lower interest rates on our term loans compared to the prior year period as a result of our repricings in 2024 and 2025.
Provision for income taxes
Provision for income taxes for the first quarter of 2025 was $3.1 million on earnings before income taxes of $5.0 million. For the first quarter of 2024, the provision for income taxes was $2.3 million on a loss before income taxes of $26.5 million. The increase in income tax expense compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily driven by the improvement from loss before income taxes to earnings before income taxes, predominately in the U.S. which improved by approximately $51.0 million from the first quarter of 2024, as well as changes in the jurisdictional mix of those earnings.
Net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA
Net income was $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to a net loss of $28.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Net income margin was 0.1% compared to net loss margin of 1.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The $30.7 million improvement in net income was principally driven by growth in our Leasing and Capital markets service lines, the impact of our cost savings initiatives, lower interest expense and lower depreciation and amortization expense. These favorable trends were partially offset by higher stock-based compensation expense and cost inflation.
Adjusted EBITDA of $96.2 million increased $18.1 million or 23% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, driven by the same factors impacting Net income above, with the exception of interest expense and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA margin, measured against service line fee revenue, of 6.2% increased 103 basis points from the first quarter of 2024.
Balance Sheet
Liquidity at the end of the first quarter was $1.7 billion, consisting of availability on the Company’s undrawn revolving credit facility of $1.1 billion and cash and cash equivalents of $0.6 billion.
Net debt as of March 31, 2025 was $2.4 billion reflecting the Company’s outstanding term loans of $1.9 billion and senior secured notes totaling $1.1 billion, net of cash and cash equivalents of $0.6 billion. See the “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section in this press release for the definition of, and a description of the purposes for which management uses, this non-GAAP financial measure.
