“The second quarter was another record for MMI as our sales and financing professionals effectively navigated a changing macroeconomic environment, and we benefited from ongoing investments into the business,” said Hessam Nadji, President and CEO. “We saw increased activity across the board driven by our client outreach and marketing initiatives as well as investors’ heightened motivation to transact before additional interest rate increases. These factors led to the significant increase in transactions compared to a year ago, including many transaction closings pulling forward into the quarter. There was also significant rotation both between property types and regions as equity built over the past few years was redeployed.”
Mr. Nadji continued, “Looking ahead, we anticipate that the effect of rapid interest rate increases, and expectations of additional rate hikes will further widen the bid/ask spread and tighten lender underwriting. Notwithstanding this market transition and time needed for valuation expectations to reset, capital is still attracted to commercial real estate as an inflation hedge with healthy supply-demand fundamentals and solid long-term growth prospects. Our fortress balance sheet enables us to continue to support our growth strategy through internal initiatives to further strengthen the MMI platform, such as enhancing technology to increase sales force efficiency, continuing to bolster the team with experienced professionals, and making targeted accretive acquisitions. With our capabilities, broad relationships, and deep industry expertise, we believe we are well positioned for long-term growth and building shareholder value.”
Dividends
In the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company paid $50.1 million in dividends to outstanding shareholders. As of June 30, 2022, accrued dividends related to unvested restricted stock units totaled $2.0 million.
On August 2, 2022, the Board of Directors declared a semi-annual regular dividend of $0.25 per share, or approximately $10.4 million, payable on October 6, 2022, to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 15, 2022.
Second Quarter 2022 Results Compared to Second Quarter 2021
Total revenues for the second quarter of 2022 reached $396.0 million, compared to $284.9 million for the same period during the prior year, an increase of 39.0%. The growth in total revenues was driven by increases in real estate brokerage commissions and financing fees. Real estate brokerage commissions increased 40.2% to $354.7 million from the same period in the prior year primarily due to an increase in overall volume of investment sales and average transaction size, and revenue growth of 58.5% in the combined Middle Market and Larger Transaction Market and 32.7% in the Private Client Market. Financing fees increased by 30.5% to $36.8 million due to an overall increase in volume of financing transactions and an increase in average transaction size.
Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2022 were $339.2 million, an increase of 39.4% compared to $243.3 million for the same period in the prior year. The change was primarily driven by a 43.4% increase in cost of services and a 29.2% increase in selling, general and administrative expense. Cost of services as a percent of total revenues increased by 200 basis points to 64.7% compared to the same period during the prior year, primarily due to senior investment sales and financing professionals earning additional commissions as certain annual revenue thresholds were achieved earlier than in prior years.
Selling, general and administrative expense for the second quarter of 2022 increased by $18.0 million to $79.8 million, compared to the same period in the prior year. The change was primarily due to increases in (i) compensation related costs, primarily driven by increases in performance compensation due to significant year-over-year growth in operating results; (ii) business development, marketing and other support related to the long-term retention of our sales and financing professionals; and (iii) a return to in-person agent and client business events, conferences, and meetings.
Net income for the second quarter of 2022 was $42.2 million, or $1.04 per common share, diluted, compared to $31.5 million, or $0.78 per common share, diluted, for the same period in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2022 was $62.9 million, compared to $48.1 million for the same period in the prior year.
Six Months 2022 Results Compared to Six Months 2021
Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $715.4 million, compared to $468.9 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $246.5 million, or 52.6%. Total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022 increased by 50.9% to $614.4 million compared to $407.1 million for the same period in the prior year. Cost of services as a percent of total revenues increased to 63.3%, up 190 basis points compared to the first six months of 2021. The Company’s net income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 of $75.0 million, or $1.85 per common share, diluted, compared with net income of $46.5 million, or $1.16 per common share, diluted, for the same period in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2022 increased to $114.8 million, from $73.8 million for the same period in the prior year. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had 1,901 investment sales and financing professionals, a net loss of 121 over the prior year.
Business Outlook
Notwithstanding the potential ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company believes it is well positioned to achieve long-term growth. However, short-term macroeconomic forces have become increasingly fluid, particularly inflationary pressure and interest rate movements, and these have the potential to influence economic growth and investor sentiment.
The Company benefits from its experienced management team, recent infrastructure investments, industry-leading market research and proprietary technology. The size and fragmentation of the Private Client Market segment continues to offer long-term growth opportunities through consolidation. This highly fragmented market segment consistently accounts for 80% of all commercial property sales transactions and over 59% of the commission pool. The top 10 brokerage firms, led by MMI, have an estimated 21% share of this segment by transaction count.
Key factors that may influence the Company’s business during the rest of 2022 include:
-
Volatility in sales and financing activity and investor sentiment driven by:
- Slowdown in sales and financing activity of asset types impacted by COVID-19, elevated inflation, interest rate fluctuations, an increasing bid-ask spread between buyers and sellers, and economic trends including a potential recession
- Possible impact to investor sentiment related to the outcome of the midterm elections and any potential policy or tax law changes that may contribute to future fluctuations in sales and financing activity
- Potential higher cost of services resulting from more experienced investment sales and financing professionals closing a larger share of revenue and surpassing revenue thresholds earlier in the year
- Volatility in each of the Company’s market segments
- High variability in the Larger Transaction Market segment from quarter to quarter, particularly due to changes in the macro economy and capital market conditions
- Increase in costs related to inflation and the return of in-person events, client meetings, and conferences
- The impact of a potential rapid increase in interest rates that could affect acquisition, financing and refinance activity
- Global geopolitical uncertainty, which may disrupt financial markets or cause investors to refrain from transacting

OTHER INFORMATION
(Unaudited)
Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation
Adjusted EBITDA, which the Company defines as net income before (i) interest income and other, including net realized gains (losses) on marketable debt securities, available-for-sale and cash and cash equivalents, (ii) interest expense, (iii) provision for income taxes, (iv) depreciation and amortization, (v) stock-based compensation, and (vi) non-cash mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) activity. 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 income, 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 income, to Adjusted EBITDA is as follows (in thousands):
