Insights

La Rosa's Q2 2024 results showcase impressive growth, with revenue soaring 154% YoY to $19.1 million. The residential real estate services segment led this surge, jumping 237% to $15.9 million. This growth is primarily attributed to the acquisition of 11 brokerages since their IPO in October 2023. However, it's important to note that organic growth is negative, with a 17% decrease in total transaction volume.

While revenue is skyrocketing, expenses are outpacing income. SG&A costs nearly tripled and the net loss widened from $403,000 to $2.3 million. This indicates that the company is in a high-growth, high-burn phase, which is not uncommon for newly public companies pursuing aggressive expansion.

The company's ambitious target of a $100 million annualized revenue run rate by year-end 2024 is noteworthy, but investors should be cautious about the projected profitability in 2025, given the current burn rate and market uncertainties.

La Rosa's strategy of growth through acquisition is bold in the current real estate market. With 11 brokerage acquisitions since October 2023, they're rapidly expanding their footprint. However, the 17% decrease in total transaction volume is concerning and reflects broader market challenges.

The company's innovative revenue share model, which allows agents to earn revenue immediately without restrictions, appears to be a significant draw. Onboarding over 200 agents in June alone is impressive, especially in a tough market. If they reach their goal of 4,000 agents by year-end, it would represent a 62% increase in just over a year.

The planned expansion into commercial real estate through the Celebration Corporate Center acquisition could provide valuable diversification. However, the success of this move will depend on how well La Rosa can adapt its residential-focused model to the commercial sector, which operates quite differently.

La Rosa's plan to white-label its proprietary AI system 'JAEME' for real estate agents is an intriguing move. In an industry increasingly driven by technology, this could provide a significant competitive edge and new revenue stream. However, details on JAEME's capabilities and how it compares to existing AI solutions in real estate are lacking.

The company's tech-integrated, cloud-based approach across multiple real estate services positions it well in a digitally transforming industry. However, as they rapidly acquire traditional brokerages, successfully integrating these into their tech ecosystem will be crucial. The ability to scale their technology platform to support the projected agent growth (potentially 4,000 by year-end) will be a key factor to watch.

While the tech angle is promising, investors should seek more concrete information on how La Rosa's technology differentiates it from competitors and contributes to operational efficiencies and profit margins.

Successfully Acquires Eleven Brokerages Since Company’s IPO in October 2023

Residential Real Estate Services Revenue Increased 237% to $15.9 Million in Q2 2024 vs Q2 2023

CELEBRATION, Fla., Aug. 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- La Rosa Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ: LRHC) (“La Rosa” or the “Company”), a holding company for five agent-centric, technology-integrated, cloud-based, multi-service real estate segments, today provided a business update and reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Key Financial Highlights

  • Total revenue increased 154% year-over-year to $19.1 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024 from $7.5 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023
  • Residential real estate services revenue increased $11.1 million to $15.9 million, or 237%, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024 from $4.7 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023
  • Property management revenue increased by approximately $375 thousand to $2.8 million, or 16%, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024 from $2.4 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023
  • Total revenue increased 138% year-over-year to $32.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from $13.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023
  • Residential real estate services revenue increased $18.1 million to $26.1 million, or 226%, for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from $8.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023
  • Property management revenue increased by approximately $645 thousand to $5.3 million, or 14%, in the six months ended June 30, 2024 from $4.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023

Q2 2024 Operational Achievements and Subsequent Events

  • Acquired five real estate brokerage franchisees in the first six months of 2024 fiscal year
  • Announced an intent to acquire Nona Title Agency LLC DBA Red Door Title
  • Announced its plan to create new revenue stream by white labeling its proprietary AI system 'JAEME' to support real estate agents
  • Achieved historic milestone with over 200 agents onboarded in June
  • Announced an intent to acquire Celebration Corporate Center LLC along with its commercial real estate

Joe La Rosa, CEO of the Company, commented, “In the first half of 2024, we successfully acquired five real estate brokerage franchisees, building on the six acquisitions made in the fourth quarter of 2023. This contributed to the 154% year-over-year increase in revenue for Q2 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. At the same time, we are progressing with several potentially transformative strategic transactions, including Red Door Title and Celebration Corporate Center. Acquiring Red Door Title would enable us to broaden our service offerings, enhancing value for our agents and their clients. By integrating Red Door Title's operations, we aim to create additional revenue streams, boost revenue per transaction, and provide our agents with new tools to effectively compete and succeed in the market. With the planned acquisition of Celebration Corporate Center, we plan to expand LRPM into the commercial real estate sector, aligning with our growth objectives and diversifying our portfolio by tapping into new market opportunities. This move will allow us to leverage our property management expertise to deliver exceptional value and service to a broader range of clients. We anticipate that properties under management will continue growing throughout the year and expect the annual growth rate to be at least approximately 30%. Looking ahead, we aim to further enhance our offerings, drive new revenue streams, and expand our market presence across the U.S. through additional value-added services, acquisitions, or joint ventures.

“We continue to grow our agent count and reached a historic milestone by onboarding over 200 agents in June. We attribute our impressive growth to our unique, innovative, and agent-friendly revenue share model. We believe that this approach disrupts traditional revenue share models in the real estate industry by enabling agents to earn revenue immediately and without restrictions. If our planned acquisitions are consummated by the end of this year, we expect to surpass 4,000 agents, marking a 62% increase since going public in October 2023. With our acquisition strategy and expanding agent base, we anticipate reaching an annualized revenue run rate of $100 million by the end of 2024, with profitability expected in 2025, assuming that all of our planned acquisitions are consummated before the end of 2024,” concluded Mr. La Rosa.

The closings of the acquisitions mentioned in this press release are subject to, and contingent upon, the parties entering into their respective definitive agreements. There can be no assurances that these acquisitions will be consummated.

Financial Results

Total revenue for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, was $19.1 million compared to $7.5 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023. Residential real estate services revenue increased $11.1 million to $15.9 million, or 237%, in the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, from $4.7 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023. The increase was driven by $12.2 million of revenue from the six acquisitions completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023 and the five acquisitions completed in the first half of fiscal year 2024, offset by a 17% decrease in total transaction volume. We increased our transaction fee, monthly agent fee, and annual fee effective September 1, 2023, which, if volume returns to 2023 levels, real estate brokerage services revenue, excluding incremental acquisition revenue, will increase in 2024. Selling, general and administrative costs, excluding stock-based compensation, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, were approximately $3.0 million, compared to $952 thousand for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023. A portion of this increase was driven by $666 thousand of additional costs from the eleven acquisitions we completed since the Company’s IPO in October 2023 in addition to increased payroll and benefits, insurance and training, and public company costs in connection with the IPO, compared to the same period in 2023. Net loss was $2.3 million, or $(0.16) basic and diluted loss per share, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to net loss of $403 thousand, or $(0.07) basic and diluted loss per share, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023.

Total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024, was $32.1 million compared to $13.5 million for six months ended June 30, 2023. Residential real estate services revenue increased $18.1million to $26.1 million, or 226%, in the six months ended June 30, 2024, from $8.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was driven by $19.7 million of revenue from the six acquisitions completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023 and the five acquisitions completed in the first half of fiscal year 2024, offset by a 27% decrease in total transaction volume. Selling, general and administrative costs, excluding stock-based compensation, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, were $5.5 million, compared to $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. A portion of this increase was driven by $1.3 million of additional costs from the eleven acquisitions we completed since the Company’s IPO in October 2023 in addition to increased payroll and benefits, insurance and training, and public company costs in connection with the IPO, compared to the same period in 2023. Net loss was $6.9 million, or $(0.50) basic and diluted loss per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to net loss of $1.4 million, or $(0.23) basic and diluted loss per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
