ANYWHERE REAL ESTATE INC. REPORTS FULL YEAR 2022 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Rhea-AI Summary

Anywhere Real Estate Inc. (NYSE: HOUS) reported a challenging financial performance for 2022, with revenue declining by 13% year-over-year to $6.9 billion due to decreased homesale transaction volume.

Despite these setbacks, Anywhere achieved $150 million in cost savings and experienced a 4% growth in agent count year-over-year. Looking ahead, the company anticipates a 30% decline in transaction volume for Q1 2023, with an expected full-year EBITDA below 2022 levels, while projecting modestly positive free cash flow for the year.

Operating EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net (other than relocation services interest for securitization assets and securitization obligations), income taxes, and other items that are not core to the operating activities of the Company such as restructuring charges, former parent legacy items, gains or losses on the early extinguishment of debt, impairments, gains or losses on discontinued operations and gains or losses on the sale of businesses, investments or other assets.

2  See Table 1a for a reconciliation of Net (loss) income attributable to Anywhere to Adjusted net (loss) income. Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) before mark-to-market interest rate swap adjustments, former parent legacy items, restructuring charges, (gain) loss on the early extinguishment of debt, impairments, (gain) loss on the sale of businesses, investments or other assets and the tax effect of the foregoing adjustments.

3  See Table 7 for a reconciliation of Net (loss) income attributable to Anywhere to Free Cash Flow. Free Cash Flow is defined as net income (loss) attributable to Anywhere before income tax expense (benefit), income tax payments, net interest expense, cash interest payments, depreciation and amortization, capital expenditures, restructuring costs and former parent legacy costs (benefits), net of payments, impairments, (gain) loss on the sale of businesses, investments or other assets, (gain) loss on the early extinguishment of debt, working capital adjustments and relocation receivables (assets), net of change in securitization obligations.

4  Includes all franchisees except for Owned Brokerage Group.

5  The Company's combined homesale transaction volume growth (transaction sides multiplied by average sale price) decreased 33% compared with the fourth quarter of 2021 and decreased 14% compared with the year ended 2021.

2023 Financial Estimates

Looking ahead to 2023, the Company expects our first quarter 2023 transaction volume to be down around 30% versus prior year. The first quarter is seasonally the slowest quarter, and combined with this anticipated volume decline, the Company expects to have significant negative Operating EBITDA for the first quarter of 2023.

Consistent with industry forecasts we expect quarterly transaction volume comparisons to 2022 to improve throughout 2023, but expect full year 2023 transaction volumes to decline about 15-20% year-over-year. Driven by these projected volume declines, the Company expects full year 2023 Operating EBITDA to be below 2022. However, the Company expects Free Cash Flow from operations to be modestly positive. 

The Company expects to realize further cost savings of approximately $200 million in 2023.

These estimates are subject to, among other things, macroeconomic and housing market uncertainties, including those related to rising inflation and mortgage rates, declining affordability and constrained inventory as well as competitive, litigation and regulatory uncertainties.

Balance Sheet

The Company ended the year with cash and cash equivalents of $214 million. Total corporate debt, including the short-term portion, net of cash and cash equivalents (net corporate debt), totaled $2.7 billion at December 31, 2022. The Company's Net Debt Leverage Ratio was 5.1x at December 31, 2022 (see Table 8b).

As of February 22, 2023 the Company had $384 million outstanding under its Revolving Credit Facility.

A consolidated balance sheet is included as Table 2 of this press release.

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION - SENIOR SECURED LEVERAGE RATIO

FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2022

(In millions)

The senior secured leverage ratio is tested quarterly pursuant to the terms of the senior secured credit facilities*. For the trailing twelve-month period ended December 31, 2022, Anywhere Real Estate Group LLC ("Anywhere Group") was required to maintain a senior secured leverage ratio not to exceed 4.75 to 1.00. The senior secured leverage ratio is measured by dividing Anywhere Group's total senior secured net debt by the trailing twelve-month EBITDA calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, as those terms are defined in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement. Total senior secured net debt does not include our unsecured indebtedness, including the Unsecured Notes* and Exchangeable Senior Notes*, or the securitization obligations. EBITDA calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement, includes adjustments to Operating EBITDA for retention and disposition costs, non-cash charges and incremental securitization interest costs, as well as pro forma cost savings for restructuring initiatives, the pro forma effect of business optimization initiatives and the pro forma effect of acquisitions and new franchisees, in each case calculated as of the beginning of the trailing twelve-month period. The Company was in compliance with the senior secured leverage ratio covenant at December 31, 2022 with a ratio of 0.77 to 1.00.

A reconciliation of net loss attributable to Anywhere Group to Operating EBITDA and EBITDA calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, as those terms are defined in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement, for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2022 is set forth in the following table:

	For the Year Ended December 31, 2022

_______________
(a)	Net loss attributable to Anywhere Group consists of: (i) income of $23 million for the first quarter of 2022, (ii) income of $88 million for the second quarter of 2022, (iii) income of $55 million for the third quarter of 2022 and (iv) loss of $453 million for the fourth quarter of 2022.
(b)	Operating EBITDA consists of: (i) $69 million for the first quarter of 2022, (ii) $202 million for the second quarter of 2022, (iii) $166 million for the third quarter of 2022 and (iv) $12 million for the fourth quarter of 2022.
(c)	Represents the twelve-month pro forma effect of business optimization initiatives.
(d)	Represents the elimination of non-cash expenses including $22 million of stock-based compensation expense and $1 million of foreign exchange expense less $6 million of other items for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022.
(e)	Represents the estimated impact of acquisitions and franchise sales activity, net of brokerages that exited our franchise system as if these changes had occurred on January 1, 2022. Franchisee sales activity is comprised of new franchise agreements as well as growth through acquisitions and independent sales agent recruitment by existing franchisees with our assistance. We have made a number of assumptions in calculating such estimates and there can be no assurance that we would have generated the projected levels of Operating EBITDA had we owned the acquired entities or entered into the franchise contracts as of January 1, 2022.
(f)	Incremental borrowing costs incurred as a result of the securitization facilities refinancing for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022.
(g)	Represents total borrowings secured by a first priority lien on our assets of $572 million under the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan A Facility plus $25 million of finance lease obligations less $196 million of readily available cash as of December 31, 2022. Pursuant to the terms of our senior secured credit facilities, total senior secured net debt does not include our securitization obligations or unsecured indebtedness, including the Unsecured Notes and Exchangeable Senior Notes.
*	Our senior secured credit facilities include the facilities under our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of March 5, 2013, as amended from time to time (the "Senior Secured Credit Agreement"), and the Term Loan A Agreement dated as of October 23, 2015 (the "Term Loan A Agreement"), as amended from time to time. Our Unsecured Notes include our 5.75% Senior Notes due 2029 and 5.25% Senior Notes due 2030. Exchangeable Senior Notes refers to our 0.25% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2026.

Table 9

Non-GAAP Definitions

Adjusted net income (loss) is defined by us as net income (loss) before: (a) mark-to-market interest rate swap adjustments, whose fair value is subject to movements in LIBOR and the forward yield curve and therefore were subject to significant fluctuations (remaining interest rate swaps expired in November 2022); (b) former parent legacy items, which pertain to liabilities of the former parent for matters prior to mid-2006 and are non-operational in nature; (c) restructuring charges as a result of initiatives currently in progress; (d) impairments; (e) the (gain) loss on the early extinguishment of debt that results from refinancing and deleveraging debt initiatives; (f) the (gain) loss on the sale of businesses, investments or other assets and (g) the tax effect of the foregoing adjustments. We present Adjusted net income (loss) because we believe this measure is useful as a supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of our operating businesses and provide greater transparency into our operating results.

Operating EBITDA is defined by us as net income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net (other than relocation services interest for securitization assets and securitization obligations), income taxes, and other items that are not core to the operating activities of the Company such as restructuring charges, former parent legacy items, gains or losses on the early extinguishment of debt, impairments, gains or losses on discontinued operations and gains or losses on the sale of businesses, investments or other assets. Operating EBITDA is our primary non-GAAP measure.

We present Operating EBITDA because we believe it is useful as a supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of our operating businesses and provides greater transparency into our results of operations. Our management, including our chief operating decision maker, uses Operating EBITDA as a factor in evaluating the performance of our business. Operating EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or other statement of operations data prepared in accordance with GAAP.

We believe Operating EBITDA facilitates company-to-company operating performance comparisons by backing out potential differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting net interest expense), taxation, the age and book depreciation of facilities (affecting relative depreciation expense) and the amortization of intangibles, as well as other items that are not core to the operating activities of the Company such as restructuring charges, gains or losses on the early extinguishment of debt, former parent legacy items, impairments, gains or losses on discontinued operations and gains or losses on the sale of businesses, investments or other assets, which may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to operating performance. We further believe that Operating EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies, many of which present an Operating EBITDA measure when reporting their results.

Operating EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider Operating EBITDA either in isolation or as a substitute for analyzing our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

• this measure does not reflect changes in, or cash required for, our working capital needs;
• this measure does not reflect our interest expense (except for interest related to our securitization obligations), or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
• this measure does not reflect our income tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes;
• this measure does not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
• although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often require replacement in the future, and this measure does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and
• other companies may calculate this measure differently so they may not be comparable.

Free Cash Flow is defined as net income (loss) attributable to Anywhere before income tax expense (benefit), income tax payments, interest expense, net, cash interest payments, depreciation and amortization, capital expenditures, restructuring costs and former parent legacy costs (benefits), net of payments, impairments, (gain) loss on the sale of businesses, investments or other assets, (gain) loss on the early extinguishment of debt, working capital adjustments and relocation receivables (assets), net of change in securitization obligations. We use Free Cash Flow in our internal evaluation of operating effectiveness and decisions regarding the allocation of resources, as well as measuring the Company's ability to generate cash. Since Free Cash Flow can be viewed as both a performance measure and a cash flow measure, the Company has provided a reconciliation to both net income attributable to Anywhere and net cash provided by operating activities. Free Cash Flow is not defined by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income (loss), net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing and financing activities or other financial data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of the Company's operating performance or liquidity. Free Cash Flow may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
