CEO STATEMENT

“Our second quarter top and bottom-line results reflect strong and building momentum: revenue grew 8.6% year over year on a comparable basis and cash receipts from existing home sales were up 15% and 16% in May and June, respectively, compared to the prior year periods,” said Michael S.

We believe this transformation will be a meaningful driver of margin improvement over time. Our team is energized and laser-focused on creating value for all of our stakeholders.”

For the second quarter of 2025, the Company achieved gross transaction value of approximately $10.2 billion with an average price per transaction of $1.84 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company achieved gross transaction value of approximately $19.4 billion with an average price per transaction of $1.90 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company achieved gross transaction value of approximately $20.1 billion with an average price per transaction of $1.92 million.

BALANCE SHEET AND CAPITAL POSITION

Douglas Elliman maintained a robust balance sheet as of June 30, 2026, with cash and cash equivalents of approximately $105.2 million and no long-term debt. This financial profile affords the Company significant strategic flexibility to pursue organic growth, accretive talent acquisition, technology investment, and opportunistic market expansion initiatives.

OUTLOOK

The Company enters the second half of 2026 with a strengthened foundation: a strong capital position, a development marketing pipeline of approximately $26.1 billion (including $18.9 billion in Florida alone) with another $9.7 billion scheduled

to come to market through September 30, 2027 and an AI transformation that is underway and that is expected to gradually lead to significant savings in non-commission operating expenses over the next three years.

Douglas Elliman remains focused on maintaining leadership in luxury residential real estate through superior agent talent, global market presence, and a brand that commands the industry's highest average sales price. Management is executing against this objective with discipline and believes the platform is now well positioned to deliver long-term stockholder value.

STRATEGIC GROWTH INITIATIVES

Douglas Elliman sees opportunities to extend the Company's luxury leadership and accelerate long-term stockholder value creation.

Technology and AI Investment

Douglas Elliman recently announced the launch of a company-wide technology infrastructure transformation to support its evolution into a technology-forward real estate brokerage. The effort is designed to fundamentally change how Douglas Elliman operates to improve efficiency, enhance the agent advisor and client experience, and reshape its long-term cost structure.

Concurrently, the Company is launching Elius, a newly formed intelligence company positioned to build proprietary real estate intelligence capabilities beyond traditional brokerage. Elius is designed to power a new generation of intelligent real estate experiences, products, and services that move beyond today's search and portal-based models by anticipating opportunities, surfacing insights earlier, and delivering guidance that today's static platforms cannot.

The transformation follows two parallel tracks to reset Douglas Elliman's non-commission-based cost structure across business units while building a proprietary intelligence business under the name Elius. Both tracks are enabled by Google Cloud technology, including its AI models and enterprise infrastructure, which the Company has selected to power its transformation.

Footprint Expansion and Talent Recruitment

Since 2025, Douglas Elliman entered new international markets in Canada, France, Monaco, and the Caribbean, extending the Company's geographic reach to serve affluent and ultra-high-net-worth clients across the world's most coveted luxury real estate destinations. Most recently, in June, the Company expanded into Paris, bringing its French network to fifteen offices across France, Monaco, and Saint-Barthélemy.

In addition, Douglas Elliman continues to extend its domestic footprint across several luxury markets. In the second quarter, the Company expanded into New Hampshire and opened a new Georgetown office — its fourth in the Mid-Atlantic region. The Company also added high level agents in key markets during the quarter and continues to have a strong recruiting pipeline.

Elliman Capital

Elliman Capital continued to expand in the second quarter. In May, the Company launched in California through a strategic relationship with Mark Cohen and Cohen Financial Group, bringing a full suite of lending solutions to agents and clients across Greater Los Angeles. In July, the platform extended into Texas, with dedicated loan officers serving agents across Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, and Austin.

Conference Call to Discuss Second Quarter 2026 Results

As previously announced, the Company will host a conference call and webcast to discuss its second quarter 2026 results on Friday, August 7, 2026 at 8:00 a.m. (ET).

Investors may access the call via live webcast at https://join.eventcastplus.com/eventcastplus/douglas-elliman-second-quarter-earnings-call. Please join the webcast at least 10 minutes prior to the start time.

A replay of the call will be available shortly after the call ends on August 7, 2026 through August 21, 2026 at https://join.eventcastplus.com/eventcastplus/douglas-elliman-second-quarter-earnings-call.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Adjusted EBITDA attributed to Douglas Elliman Inc., Adjusted Net Loss attributed to Douglas Elliman Inc. and financial measures for the last twelve months (“LTM”) ended June 30, 2026 (referred to as the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) are financial measures not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Company believes that the Non-GAAP Financial Measures are important measures that supplement discussion and analysis of its results of operations and enhance an understanding of its operating performance.

The Company believes the Non-GAAP Financial Measures provide investors and analysts with a useful measure of operating results unaffected by differences in capital structures and ages of related assets among otherwise comparable companies.

Management uses the Non-GAAP Financial Measures as measures to review and assess the operating performance of the Company’s business, and management does, and investors should review both the overall performance (GAAP net income (loss)) and the operating performance (the Non-GAAP Financial Measures) of the Company’s business. While management considers the Non-GAAP Financial Measures to be important, they should be considered in addition to, but not as substitutes for or superior to, other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as operating income (loss), net income (loss) and cash flows from operations. In addition, the Non-GAAP Financial Measures are susceptible to varying calculations and the Company’s measurement of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures may not be comparable to those of other companies. Attached hereto as Tables 2 and 3 is information relating to the Company’s Non-GAAP Financial Measures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the LTM ended June 30, 2026 and the year ended December 31, 2025.
