ANYWHERE REAL ESTATE INC. MADISON, N.J., July 31, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Realogy Holdings Corp. (NYSE: RLGY), a global leader in residential real estate franchising and prominent provider of real estate brokerage, relocation, and title and settlement services, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2015, including the following highlights:
-- Revenue of $1.7 billion, which represents a 9% increase compared to
second quarter 2014, was driven by higher homesale transaction volume.
-- Net income for second quarter 2015 was $97 million, and basic earnings
per share was $0.66, representing increases of 43% and 40%,
respectively, compared to the prior year period.
-- Adjusted EBITDA was $282 million, compared to $269 million in the second
quarter of 2014, a year-over-year increase of $13 million.
-- Realogy generated $273 million of free cash flow for the quarter, or
$1.86 per share, compared to $198 million, or $1.36 per share, in the
prior year period.
-- Realogy's franchise (RFG) and company-owned (NRT) business segments
achieved a 10% increase in combined homesale transaction volume
(transaction sides multiplied by average sale price) compared to second
quarter 2014. RFG reported a homesale transaction increase of 5% and an
average homesale price increase of 5%. NRT reported a homesale
transaction increase of 13% and an average homesale price decrease of
4%. The increase in NRT's transaction sides was bolstered by the
strategic addition of the Coldwell Banker United and ZipRealty brokerage
operations, which have a lower average sales price.

"Our second quarter results continued the momentum from the first quarter," said Richard A. Smith, Realogy's chairman, chief executive officer and president. "The fundamentals of the housing market continue to gain strength, and our results reflect these improving conditions along with the impact of our strategic growth initiatives."
Smith continued: "We delivered strong free cash flow of $273 million in the second quarter, which we believe demonstrates the strength of our business model. We expect that we will end the year with a cash balance of approximately $650 million, more than double the balance at December 31, 2014, which positions us to further delever our balance sheet."
"Looking ahead to the third quarter of 2015, we expect to see homesale transaction volume gains in the range of 7% to 10% year-over-year on a company-wide basis," said Anthony E. Hull, executive vice president, chief financial officer and treasurer. "Based on our closed and open sales activity in June and July, we expect third quarter homesale transaction sides to be up 5% to 7% year-over-year and average homesale price to increase 2% to 3% for RFG and NRT combined."
Hull continued: "Since our primary earnings quarters are the second and third quarters of each year, and we now have visibility into the third quarter, we are providing full year Adjusted EBITDA guidance at this time. We expect Realogy's Adjusted EBITDA will be between $810 to $840 million for the full year 2015 and expect that our Adjusted EBITDA margins will be between 14.1% to 14.3%."
The Company ended the quarter with a cash and cash equivalents balance of $359 million and no outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility. Total long-term corporate debt, including the short term portion, net of cash and cash equivalents, totaled $3,543 million at June 30, 2015.
A consolidated balance sheet is included as Table 2 of this press release.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this press release constitute "forward-looking statements." Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Realogy Holdings Corp. to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Statements preceded by, followed by or that otherwise include the words "believes", "expects", "anticipates", "intends", "projects", "estimates" and "plans" and similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as "will", "should", "would", "may" and "could" are generally forward-looking in nature and not historical facts. Any statements that refer to expectations or other characterizations of future events, circumstances or results are forward-looking statements.
Various factors that could cause actual future results and other future events to differ materially from those estimated by management include, but are not limited to: adverse developments or the absence of sustained improvement in general business, economic and political conditions; adverse developments or the absence of improvement in the residential real estate markets including but not limited to the lack of sustained improvement in the number of home sales and/or stagnant or declining home prices, low levels of consumer confidence, the impact of slow economic growth or future recessions and related high levels of unemployment in the U.S. and abroad, continued low inventory levels, renewed high levels of foreclosures, seasonal fluctuations in the residential real estate brokerage business, and increasing mortgage rates and down payment requirements and/or constraints on the availability of mortgage financing; the Company's geographic and high-end market concentration, particularly with respect to its Company-owned brokerage operations; the Company's failure to enter into or renew franchise agreements or maintain its brands; risks relating to our outstanding debt and interest obligations; variable rate indebtedness which subjects the Company to interest rate risk; the Company's inability to access capital or refinance or repay existing indebtedness; the Company's inability to realize the benefits from acquisitions; any outbreak or escalation of hostilities on a national, regional or international basis; government regulation as well as legislative, tax or regulatory changes that would adversely impact the residential real estate market, including but not limited to potential reform of the financing of the U.S. housing and mortgage markets and/or the Internal Revenue Code and changes in state or federal employment laws or regulations that would require reclassification of independent contractor sales associates to employee status, and wage and hour regulations; the Company's inability to sustain improvements in its operating efficiency; and the final resolution or outcomes with respect to Cendant's (our former parent) remaining contingent liabilities.
Consideration should be given to the areas of risk described above, as well as those risks set forth under the headings "Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Quarterly Reports filed on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015 and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, and our other filings made from time to time, in connection with considering any forward-looking statements that may be made by us and our businesses generally. Except for our ongoing obligations to disclose material information under the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements, to report events or to report the occurrence of unanticipated events unless we are required to do so by law.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined under SEC rules. See Table 8 for definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures and Tables 5a, 5b, 6 and 7 for reconciliations of the historical non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP terms.
Because of the forward-looking nature of the Company's forecasted non-GAAP financial measures, specific quantifications of the amounts that would be required to reconcile forecasted Adjusted EBITDA to forecasted EBITDA and forecasted net income are not readily determinable. The Company believes that there is a degree of volatility with respect to certain of the Company's GAAP measures which preclude the Company from providing accurate forecasted GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations. Based on the above, the Company believes that providing estimates of the amounts that would be required to reconcile the range of the non-GAAP measures to forecasted GAAP measures would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors for the reasons identified above.

Table 8
Non-GAAP Definitions
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) and income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA calculated for a twelve-month period is presented to demonstrate our compliance with the senior secured leverage ratio covenant in the senior secured credit facility. Adjusted EBITDA calculated for a twelve-month period corresponds to the definition of "EBITDA," calculated on a "pro forma basis," used in the senior secured credit facility to calculate the senior secured leverage ratio. Adjusted EBITDA includes adjustments to EBITDA for restructuring costs, former parent legacy cost (benefit) items, net, loss on the early extinguishment of debt, 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 twelve-month period. Adjusted EBITDA calculated for a three-month period adjusts for the same items as for a twelve-month period, except that the pro forma effect of cost savings, business optimizations and acquisitions and new franchisees are calculated as of the beginning of the three-month period instead of the twelve-month period.
We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful as supplemental measures in evaluating the performance of our operating businesses and provide greater transparency into our results of operations. Our management, including our chief operating decision maker, uses EBITDA as a factor in evaluating the performance of our business. EBITDA and Adjusted 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 EBITDA facilitates company-to-company operating performance comparisons by backing out potential differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting interest expense), taxation, the age and book depreciation of facilities (affecting relative depreciation expense) and the amortization of intangibles, which may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to operating performance. We further believe that EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies, many of which present an EBITDA measure when reporting their results.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA either in isolation or as substitutes for analyzing our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
-- these measures do not reflect changes in, or cash required for, our
working capital needs;
-- these measures do 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;
-- these measures do not reflect our income tax expense or the cash
requirements to pay our taxes;
-- these measures do 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 these measures do not reflect any cash requirements for such
replacements; and
-- other companies may calculate these measures differently so they may not
be comparable.
In addition to the limitations described above, Adjusted EBITDA includes pro forma cost savings, the pro forma effect of business optimization initiatives and the pro forma full period effect of acquisitions and new franchisees. These adjustments may not reflect the actual cost savings or pro forma effect recognized in future periods.
Free Cash Flow is defined as net income (loss) attributable to Realogy before income tax expense (benefit), net of payments, interest expense, net, depreciation and amortization, capital expenditures, restructuring costs and former parent legacy costs (benefits), net of payments, loss on the early extinguishment of debt, working capital adjustments and relocation assets, net of change in securitization obligations. Cash Earnings Per Share is defined as Free Cash Flow divided by the weighted average basic shares outstanding. We use Free Cash Flow and Cash Earnings Per Share in our internal evaluation of operating effectiveness and decisions regarding the allocation of resources. Free Cash Flow and Cash Earnings Per Share are 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. Free Cash Flow and Cash Earnings Per Share may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
