Marcus & Millichap, Inc. (the “Company”, “Marcus & Millichap”, or “MMI”) (NYSE: MMI), a leading national real estate services firm specializing in commercial real estate investment sales, financing, research and advisory services, reported its third quarter results today.
Third Quarter 2024 Highlights Compared to Third Quarter 2023
Nine Months 2024 Highlights Compared to Nine Months 2023
“We are pleased to report an improvement in our third quarter results. We believe this progress reflects the start of the return of capital to the market and the successful implementation of various internal initiatives. It also suggests early signs of market stabilization and increased investor activity,” stated Hessam Nadji, Marcus & Millichap’s president and chief executive officer.
Mr. Nadji continued, “Market sentiment improved in September thanks to the Fed’s decisive first move on lowering the short-term rate; however, long-term rates have risen once again thanks to a stronger-than-expected labor market and the election outcome. We anticipate the path of sales and financing volume improvements to remain inconsistent as a result, but continue on a solid positive trend. Record capital on the sideline coupled with price adjustments over the last two years are motivating buyers to re-enter the market while more sellers are motivated to sell assets. We believe our disciplined approach to platform investments and expense management, combined with our strong capital position, sets us up well for the future. We are committed to leveraging our proprietary technology and strategic initiatives to drive growth and maintain our leadership in the market.”

Third Quarter 2024 Results Compared to Third Quarter 2023
Total revenue for the third quarter 2024 was $168.5 million, an increase of 4.0% compared to $162.0 million for the same period in the prior year.
For real estate brokerage commissions, revenue was $142.0 million, an increase of 1.5% compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily attributed to a 14.7% increase in total sales volume, partially offset by a 22 basis point decrease in the average commission rate earned compared to the third quarter 2023. Private Client Market revenue decreased by 4.3%, while the combined Middle Market and Larger Transaction Market revenue increased by 15.1%.
For financing fees, revenue was $20.6 million, an increase of 19.3% compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily attributed to a 12.0% increase in total financing volume and a two basis point increase in the average fee rate compared to third quarter of 2023.
Total operating expenses for the third quarter 2024 were $180.0 million, compared to $177.5 million for the same period in the prior year. The change was primarily due to an increase of $1.5 million in selling, general and administrative expenses. Cost of services as a percentage of total revenue decreased by 240 basis points to 62.2% compared to the same period during the prior year.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter 2024 were $70.7 million, compared to $69.2 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to an increase in personnel costs, partially offset by a reduction in marketing support provided to our investment sales and financing professionals.
Net loss for the third quarter 2024 was $5.4 million, or $0.14 per common share, diluted, compared to a net loss of $9.2 million, or $0.24 per common share, diluted, for the same period in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter 2024 increased by $6.6 million to approximately breakeven, primarily as a result of the decrease in operating loss.
Nine Months 2024 Results Compared to Nine Months 2023
Total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $456.0 million, compared to $479.7 million for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of $23.7 million, or 4.9%. Total operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 decreased by 5.0% to $495.6 million compared to $521.9 million for the same period in the prior year. Cost of services as a percentage of total revenue decreased by 150 basis points to 61.3%, compared to the first nine months of 2023. The Company’s net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $20.9 million, or $0.54 per common share, diluted, compared to $23.8 million, or $0.61 per common share, diluted, for the same period in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 decreased to $(8.7) million, from $(15.1) million for the same period in the prior year. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had 1,678 investment sales and financing professionals, compared to 1,820 at the end of the same period last year.
Capital Allocation
On August 1, 2024, the Board of Directors declared a semi-annual regular dividend of $0.25 per share, which was paid on October 4, 2024, to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 16, 2024.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company repurchased 16,900 shares of common stock at an average price of $32.77 per share for a total price of $0.6 million. Since August 2022, the Company has repurchased and retired 2,141,422 shares of common stock at an average price of $32.24 per share for a total price of $69.0 million.
After accounting for shares repurchased through November 5, 2024, Marcus & Millichap has approximately $71.0 million available to repurchase shares under its program. No time limit has been established for the completion of the program, and the repurchases are expected to be executed from time-to-time, through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions, including through Rule 10b5-1 plans, subject to general business and market conditions and other investment opportunities.
Business Outlook
Investor activity increased following the Federal Reserve interest rate reduction in September, but the market is still impacted by long-term interest rate volatility as well as navigating price discovery and the bid/ask spread. These dynamics continue to expand marketing and transaction execution timelines and challenge the productivity of our salesforce in the near term. Transaction velocity has improved and momentum remains positive; however, continued gains in trading and financing volumes will likely take time to return to long-term averages. Price adjustments, distressed situations and maturing loans could also boost transactional velocity in the quarters ahead. Over the long-term, real estate demand is expected to return sales and financing volumes to higher than current levels given the record capital on the sideline and key advantages of real estate investments. Accordingly, the Company believes it remains well-positioned to achieve long-term growth.
The Company benefits from its experienced management team, infrastructure investments, industry-leading market research and proprietary technology. The size and fragmentation of the Private Client Market continues to offer long-term growth opportunities through consolidation. This highly fragmented market segment consistently accounts for over 80% of all U.S. commercial property transactions and over 60% of the commission pool. The top 10 brokerage firms led by MMI had an estimated 22% share of this segment by transaction count in 2023.
Key factors that may influence the Company’s business during the remainder of 2024 include:

MARCUS & MILLICHAP, INC. OTHER INFORMATION (Unaudited)
Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation
Adjusted EBITDA, which the Company defines as net loss before (i) interest income and other, including net realized gains (losses) on marketable debt securities, available-for-sale and cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash, (ii) interest expense, (iii) benefit for income taxes, (iv) depreciation and amortization, and (v) stock-based compensation. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA in its business operations to evaluate the performance of its business, develop budgets and measure its performance against those budgets, among other things. The Company also believes that analysts and investors use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to evaluate its overall operating performance. However, Adjusted EBITDA has material limitations as a supplemental metric and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company finds Adjusted EBITDA to be a useful management metric to assist in evaluating performance, because Adjusted EBITDA eliminates items related to capital structure, taxes and non-cash items. Considering the foregoing limitations, the Company does not rely solely on Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure and also considers its U.S. GAAP results. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of the Company’s financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net loss, operating income or any other measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Because Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated in the same manner by all companies, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.
A reconciliation of the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, net loss, to Adjusted EBITDA is as follows (in thousands):
