(1)Operating leases are related to rental payments under various non-cancelable leases principally for office space. (2)Warehouse facilities are collateralized by $913.3 million of loans held for sale, at fair value (see Note 18 – “Warehouse Facilities Collateralized by U.S. Government Sponsored Enterprises”), which loans were either under commitment to be purchased by Freddie Mac or had confirmed forward trade commitments for the issuance of and purchase of Fannie Mae or Ginnie Mae mortgage-backed securities. (3)Debt reflects long-term borrowings of $675.0 million which include $600.0 million outstanding aggregate principal amount of 7.500% Senior Notes and $75.0 million outstanding under the Credit Facility. The carrying amount of long-term debt was approximately $671.7 million in the aggregate, which includes $596.7 million under the 7.500% Senior Notes and $75.0 million under the Credit Facility. See Note 19 – “Debt.” (4)Reflects interest on the $675.0 million of long-term debt which includes $600.0 million outstanding aggregate principal amount of 7.500% Senior Notes until their maturity date of January 11, 2029 and $75.0 million under the Credit Facility, which is assumed to be outstanding until the maturity date of the Credit Facility. Interest on the borrowings under the Credit Facility was projected using the SOFR rate plus 160 basis points. (5)Interest on the warehouse facilities collateralized by U.S. Government Sponsored Enterprises was projected by using the one-month SOFR rate plus their respective additional basis points, primarily 130 basis points above SOFR, applied to their respective outstanding balances as of December 31, 2025, through their respective maturity dates. Their respective maturity dates range from May 2025 to October 2025, while one line has an open maturity date. The notional amount of these committed and uncommitted warehouse facilities was $3.5 billion at December 31, 2025. See Note 18 – “Warehouse Facilities Collateralized by U.S. Government Sponsored Enterprises.” As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, Newmark was committed to fund approximately $0.1 billion and $0.1 billion, respectively, which is the total remaining draws on construction loans originated by Newmark under the HUD 221(d) 4, 220 and 232 programs, rate locked loans that have not been funded, forward commitments, as well as the funding for Fannie Mae structured transactions. Newmark also has corresponding commitments to sell these loans to various investors as they are funded. (b) Contingent Payments Related to Acquisitions Newmark completed acquisitions from 2019 through 2025 with contingent cash consideration of $11.1 million. The contingent equity instruments and cash liability is recorded at fair value in “Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities” on Newmark’s consolidated balance sheets. (c) Contingencies In the ordinary course of business, various legal actions are brought and are pending against Newmark and its subsidiaries in the U.S. and internationally. In some of these actions, substantial amounts are claimed. Newmark is also involved, from time to time, in reviews, examinations, investigations and proceedings by governmental and self-regulatory agencies (both formal and informal) regarding Newmark’s businesses, which may result in regulatory, civil and criminal judgments, settlements, fines, penalties, injunctions or other relief. The following generally does not include matters that Newmark has pending against other parties which, if successful, would result in awards in favor of Newmark or its subsidiaries. Employment, Competitor-Related and Other Litigation From time to time, Newmark and its subsidiaries are involved in litigation, claims and arbitration in the U.S. and internationally, relating to various employment matters, including with respect to termination of employment, hiring of employees currently or previously employed by competitors, terms and conditions of employment and other matters. In light of the competitive nature of the real estate services industry, litigation, claims and arbitration between competitors regarding employee hiring are not uncommon. Legal reserves are established in accordance with U.S. GAAP guidance on Accounting for Contingencies, when a material legal liability is both probable and reasonably estimable. Once established, reserves are adjusted when there is more information available or when an event occurs requiring a change. The outcome of such items cannot be determined with certainty. Newmark is unable to estimate a possible loss or range of loss in connection with specific matters beyond its current accrual and any other amounts disclosed. Management believes that, based on currently available information, the final outcome of these current pending matters will not have a material adverse effect on Newmark’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures taken as a whole. Risks and Uncertainties Newmark generates revenues by providing financial intermediary and brokerage activities and commercial real estate services to institutional customers. Revenues for these services are transaction-based. As a result, revenues could vary based on the transaction volume of global financial and real estate markets. Additionally, financing is sensitive to interest rate fluctuations, which could have an impact on Newmark’s overall profitability.
