“Our fourth quarter results continued to reflect the ongoing market disruption created by the Fed’s fight against inflation and persistent interest rate volatility impacting real estate valuations,” said Hessam Nadji, president and chief executive officer. “We continue to take advantage of our leading brand and strong financial position to leverage the current period by attracting leading professionals, pursuing strategic investments and acquisitions, and enhancing our technology.”
Mr. Nadji continued, “Looking ahead, uncertainty regarding the timing and scale of the Fed’s plan to lower interest rates continues to weigh on investor motivation. We believe the eventual Fed shift, coupled with growing evidence of an economic soft landing will become catalysts to an increase in transactions and release of pent-up demand held by investors waiting for clarity. With record capital on the sideline, as values adjust we are seeing more buyer activity and offers on well-priced inventory we are bringing to market. MMI’s branding, talent acquisition and platform enhancements are positioning us well to lead in the eventual market recovery. In the interim, our focus remains on maintaining a strong balance sheet, fostering client relationships and strengthening the business for the long term.”
Fourth Quarter 2023 Results Compared to Fourth Quarter 2022
Total revenue for the fourth quarter 2023 was $166.2 million, a decrease of 36.7% compared to $262.4 million for the fourth quarter 2022.
For real estate brokerage commissions, revenue was $144.6 million, a decrease of 38.7% compared to the same period in the prior year. The decline is primarily attributed to a 30.8% decline in transactions. The average transaction size and the average commission per transaction decreased by 3.7% and 11.4%, respectively, compared to the fourth quarter 2022. Private Client Market revenue decreased by 34.9%, and the combined Middle Market and Larger Transaction Market revenue decreased by 48.2%.
For financing fees, revenue was $15.9 million, a decrease of 26.5% from the same period in the prior year, primarily attributed to a 41.9% decline in transactions, while the average fee per transaction and the average transaction size increased by 20.2% and 5.3%, respectively.
Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter 2023 were $183.4 million, compared to $256.6 million for the same period in the prior year. The change was primarily due to reductions of 41.7% in cost of services, partially offset by a 2.9% increase in selling, general and administrative expenses and a 2.3% increase in depreciation and amortization expenses. Cost of services as a percentage of total revenue decreased by 550 basis points to 63.4% compared to the same period during the prior year primarily due to our senior investment sales and financing professionals earning a lower amount of additional commissions due to lower revenue.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the fourth quarter 2023 were $74.7 million, compared to $72.6 million, for the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to costs incurred from consolidation of office space and incremental costs from stock-based compensation, partially offset by a reduction in compensation-related costs, specifically performance-based bonuses.
Net loss for the fourth quarter 2023 was $10.2 million, or $0.27 per common share, diluted, compared to a net income of $7.9 million, or $0.20 per common share, diluted, for the same period in 2022. Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter 2023 was $(4.5) million, compared to $14.1 million for the same period in the prior year, primarily as a result of the decrease in operating income.
Full Year 2023 Results Compared to Full Year 2022
Total revenue for 2023 was $645.9 million, compared to $1,301.7 million for 2022, a decrease of $655.8 million, or 50.4%. Total operating expenses for 2023 decreased by 39.4% to $705.3 million compared to $1,164.3 million for 2022. Cost of services as a percent of total revenues decreased to 63.0%, down 240 basis points compared to 2022. The Company’s net loss for 2023 was $34.0 million, or $0.88 per common share, diluted, compared to a net income of $104.2 million, or $2.59 per common share, diluted, for 2022. Adjusted EBITDA for 2023 decreased to $(19.6) million, from $165.5 million for 2022. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had 1,783 investment sales and financing professionals, compared to 1,904 in 2022.
Capital Allocation
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, the Company declared two semi-annual regular dividends totaling $20.4 million, and repurchased 1,260,251 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $38.9 million.
After accounting for shares repurchased through December 31, 2023, the Company has approximately $71.5 million available to repurchase shares under its share repurchase 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, subject to general business and market conditions and other investment opportunities, through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions, including through Rule 10b5-1 plans.
Business Outlook
Notwithstanding the ongoing price discovery and wider than normal bid/ask spreads, the commercial real estate transaction market is poised over the long-term to overcome the near term challenges which are currently expected to extend for the first half of 2024. 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 commercial property sales transactions and over 60% of the commission pool. The top 10 brokerage firms led by MMI have an estimated 20% share of this segment by transaction count.
Key factors that may influence the Company’s business during 2024 include:
-
Volatility in transactional activity and investor sentiment driven by:
- The elevated cost of debt capital
- Interest rate uncertainty and the heightened bid-ask spread between buyers and sellers
- Risks of a potential recession and its unfavorable impact to CRE space demand
- Possible impact to market sentiment related to the presidential election, potential tax and other policy changes which may influence transaction velocity and/or future fluctuations in sales and financing activity
- Increase in operating expenses driven by labor costs, insurance, taxes and construction materials
- Volatility in each of the Company’s markets
- Increase in costs related to in-person events, client meetings, and conferences
- Global geopolitical uncertainty, which may cause investors to refrain from transacting
- The potential for acquisition activity and subsequent integration

OTHER INFORMATION
(Unaudited)
Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation
Adjusted EBITDA, which the Company defines as net (loss) income 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) provision 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 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):
