NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. | Basis of Presentation

Readers of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Quarterly Report) should refer to the audited financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements of CBRE Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (which may be referred to in these financial statements as “the company,” “we,” “us” and “our”), for the year ended December 31, 2018, which are included in our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K (2018 Annual Report), filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and also available on our website (www.cbre.com), since we have omitted from this Quarterly Report certain footnote disclosures which would substantially duplicate those contained in such audited financial statements. You should also refer to Note 2, Significant Accounting Policies, in the notes to consolidated financial statements in our 2018 Annual Report for further discussion of our significant accounting policies and estimates.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules applicable to quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and include all information and footnotes required for interim financial statement presentation, but do not include all disclosures required under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S.), or GAAP, for annual financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise noted) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions about future events. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported and reported amounts of revenue and expenses. Such estimates include the value of goodwill, intangibles and other long-lived assets, real estate assets, accounts receivable, contract assets, operating lease assets, investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries and assumptions used in the calculation of income taxes, retirement and other post-employment benefits, among others. These estimates and assumptions are based on our best judgment. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including consideration of the current economic environment, and adjust such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in these estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the financial statements in future periods.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2018 financial statements to conform with the 2019 presentation.

2. | New Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) previously issued six Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs) related to leases. The ASUs issued were: (1) in February 2016, ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”, (2) in January 2018, ASU 2018-01, “Leases (Topic 842): Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842”, (3) in July 2018, ASU 2018-10, “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases”, (4) in July 2018, ASU 2018-11, “Targeted Improvements”, (5) in December 2018, ASU 2018-20, “Leases (Topic 842): Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors” and (6) in March 2019, ASU 2019-01, “Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements.” ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize most leases on the balance sheet as liabilities, with corresponding right-of-use assets. For income statement recognition purposes, leases will be classified as either a finance or operating lease in a manner similar to the requirements under the previous lease accounting literature, but without relying upon the bright-line tests. The amendments in ASU 2018-01 specify how land easements are within the scope of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 842 and permit a practical expedient to not assess whether expired or existing land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases are leases under ASC 842. The amendments in ASU 2018-10 affect narrow aspects of the guidance issued in the amendments in ASU 2016-02. The amendments in ASU 2018-11 provide an optional method for adopting the new leasing guidance and provide lessors with a practical expedient to combine lease and associated non-lease components by class of underlying asset in

contracts that meet certain criteria. The amendments in ASU 2018-20 provide an accounting policy election permitting lessors to treat certain sales and other similar taxes incurred as lessee costs, guidance on the treatment of certain lessor costs and guidance on recognizing variable payments for contracts with a lease and non-lease component. The amendments in ASU 2019-01 affect narrow aspects of the guidance issued in the amendments in ASU 2016-02. These ASUs are effective for annual periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018.

We adopted these ASUs in the first quarter of 2019 by using the optional transitional method associated with no adjustment to comparative period financial statements presented for prior periods. We elected certain practical expedients, including the package of transition practical expedients and the practical expedient to forego separating lease and non-lease components in our lessee contracts. We also made an accounting policy election to exempt short-term leases of 12 months or less from balance sheet recognition requirements associated with the new standard; fixed rental payments for short-term leases will be recognized as a straight-line expense over the lease term.

As a result of the adoption of the leasing guidance, the consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019 reflected $1.2 billion of additional lease liabilities, along with corresponding right-of-use assets of $1.0 billion, reflecting adjustments for items such as prepaid and deferred rent, unamortized initial direct costs, and unamortized lease incentive balances. The adoption of the leasing guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated statements of operations.

As of January 1, 2019, we account for leases in accordance with ASC Topic 842, “Leases.” The present value of lease payments, which are either fixed payments, in-substance fixed payments, or variable payments tied to an index or rate are recognized on the balance sheet with corresponding lease liabilities and right-of-use assets upon the commencement of the lease. These lease costs are expensed over the respective lease term in accordance with the classification of the lease (i.e. operating versus finance classification). Variable lease payments not tied to an index or rate are expensed as incurred and not subject to capitalization.

In July 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-07, “Codification Updates to SEC Sections: Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Final Rule Releases No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, and Nos. 33-10231 and 33-10442, Investment Company Reporting Modernization, and Miscellaneous Updates.” This ASU amends certain SEC sections or paragraphs within the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to reflect previously issued SEC final rules on Disclosure Update and Simplification and Investment Company Reporting Modernization. This ASU became effective immediately upon issuance. We adopted ASU 2019-07 in the third quarter of 2019 and the adoption did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Pending Adoption

The FASB issued three ASUs related to financial instruments – credit losses. The ASUs issued were: (1) in June 2016, ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, (2) in November 2018, ASU 2018-19 “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses” and (3) in May 2019, ASU 2019-05, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief.” ASU 2016-13 is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other organizations. Additionally, ASU 2019-04, discussed further below, also includes amendments to ASU 2016-13. ASU 2018-19 clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of the credit losses standard, but rather, should be accounted for in accordance with the leasing standard. ASU 2019-05 provide entities that have certain instruments within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses—Measured at Amortized Cost, with an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option in Subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments—Overall. These ASUs are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. We are evaluating the effect that ASU 2016‑13, ASU 2018-19 and ASU 2019-05 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018‑14, “Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans.” This ASU makes minor changes to the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans. This ASU is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. As ASU 2018-14 only revises disclosure requirements, it will not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements. We are evaluating the effect, if any, that ASU 2018‑14 will have on our disclosures.

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018‑18, “Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808): Clarifying the Interaction Between Topic 808 and Topic 606.” This ASU provides guidance on how to assess whether certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants should be accounted for within the revenue recognition standard and provides more comparability in the presentation of revenue for certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. We are evaluating the effect that ASU 2018‑18 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019‑04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments.” The amendments in ASU 2019-04 clarify and improve areas of guidance related to the recently issued standards on financial instruments – credit losses, derivatives and hedging, and financial instruments. The amendments in this ASU that are related to financial instruments – credit losses are effective at the same time as the effective date of ASU 2016-13. We are evaluating the effect that the amendments in this ASU that are related to financial instruments – credit losses will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. We elected to early adopt the amendments in this ASU that are related to derivatives and hedging and financial instruments in the second quarter of 2019 and the adoption of these amendments did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

3. | FacilitySource Acquisition

On June 12, 2018, CBRE Jason Acquisition LLC (Merger Sub), our wholly-owned subsidiary, and FacilitySource Holdings, LLC (FacilitySource), WP X Finance, LP and Warburg Pincus X Partners, LP (collectively, the Stockholders) entered into a stock purchase agreement and plan of merger (the Merger Agreement). As part of the Merger Agreement, (i) we purchased from the Stockholders all the outstanding shares of capital stock of FS WP Holdco, Inc (Blocker Corp), which owned 1,686,013 Class A units (the Blocker Units) and (ii) immediately following the acquisition of Blocker Corp, Merger Sub merged with FacilitySource, with FacilitySource continuing as the surviving company and our wholly-owned subsidiary within our Global Workplace Solutions segment (the FacilitySource Acquisition), with the remaining Blocker Units not held by Blocker Corp. canceled and converted into the right to receive cash consideration as set forth in the Merger Agreement. The final net purchase price was approximately $266.5 million paid in cash, with $263.0 million paid in 2018 and $3.5 million paid in 2019. We financed the transaction with cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. We completed the FacilitySource Acquisition to help us (i) build a tech-enabled supply chain capability for the occupier outsourcing industry and (ii) drive meaningfully differentiated outcomes for leading occupiers of real estate.

The purchase accounting related to the FacilitySource Acquisition has been finalized (with no changes made in 2019 to the preliminary purchase accounting recorded in 2018). The excess purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired has been recorded to goodwill. The goodwill arising from the FacilitySource Acquisition consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations acquired from FacilitySource with ours. The goodwill recorded in connection with the FacilitySource Acquisition that is deductible for tax purposes was not significant.

4. | Warehouse Receivables & Warehouse Lines of Credit

Our wholly-owned subsidiary CBRE Capital Markets, Inc. (CBRE Capital Markets) is a Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) approved Multifamily Program Plus Seller/Servicer and an approved Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) Aggregation and Negotiated Transaction Seller/Servicer. In addition, CBRE Capital Markets’ wholly-owned subsidiary CBRE Multifamily Capital, Inc. (CBRE MCI) is an approved Fannie Mae Delegated Underwriting and Servicing (DUS) Seller/Servicer and CBRE Capital Markets’ wholly-owned subsidiary CBRE HMF, Inc. (CBRE HMF) is a U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) approved Non-Supervised Federal Housing Authority (FHA) Title II Mortgagee, an approved Multifamily Accelerated Processing (MAP) lender and an approved Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae) issuer of mortgage-backed securities (MBS). Under these arrangements, before loans are originated through proceeds from warehouse lines of credit, we obtain either a contractual loan purchase commitment from either Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae or a confirmed forward trade commitment for the issuance and purchase of a Fannie Mae or Ginnie Mae MBS that will be secured by the loans. The warehouse lines of credit are generally repaid within a one-month period when Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae buys the loans or upon settlement of the Fannie Mae or Ginnie Mae MBS, while we retain the servicing rights. Loans are funded at the prevailing market rates. We elect the fair value option for all warehouse receivables. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, all of the warehouse receivables included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets were either under commitment to be purchased by Freddie Mac or had confirmed forward trade commitments for the issuance and purchase of Fannie Mae or Ginnie Mae mortgage-backed securities that will be secured by the underlying loans.

A rollforward of our warehouse receivables is as follows (dollars in thousands):

Beginning balance at December 31, 2018 |  | $ | 1,342,468 |
Origination of mortgage loans |  |  | 15,381,864 |
Gains (premiums on loan sales) |  |  | 48,177 |

Net increase in mortgage servicing rights included in warehouse receivables |  |  | 2,214 |
Ending balance at September 30, 2019 |  | $ | 987,923 |

On September 30, 2019, we borrowed $376.7 million from our warehouse lines of credit to fund origination of mortgage loans scheduled to close on October 1, 2019. The transaction closed as scheduled and was recorded as a warehouse receivable on October 1, 2019. As a result, we had a $376.7 million advance warehouse funding, which has been included on a separate line item in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2019.

6. | Fair Value Measurements

Topic 820 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Topic 820 also establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

| • | Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

| • | Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

| • | Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

There have been no significant changes to the valuation techniques and inputs used to develop the recurring fair value measurements from those disclosed in our 2018 Annual Report.

The following tables present the fair value of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (dollars in thousands):

There were no significant non-recurring fair value measurements recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2019. The following non-recurring fair value measurement was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 (dollars in thousands):

|  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Total |

Other intangible assets | $ | 16,000 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 16,000 |  |  | $ | 89,037 |

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recorded an intangible asset impairment of $89.0 million in our Real Estate Investments segment. Such impairment charge was included as a separate line item in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

This non-cash write-off resulted from a review of the anticipated cash flows and the decrease in assets under management in our public securities business driven in part by continued industry-wide shift in investor preference for passive investment programs. The fair value measurements employed for our impairment evaluation was generally based upon a discounted cash flow approach. Inputs used in such evaluation included risk-free rates of return, estimated risk premiums as well as other economic variables.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, we recorded a gain of $92.6 million associated with remeasuring our 50% investment in a previously unconsolidated subsidiary in New England to fair value as of the date we acquired the remaining 50% controlling interest. Fair value of this investment in unconsolidated subsidiary at acquisition date was $110.1 million, based upon the purchase price paid for the remaining 50% interest acquired, excluding the estimated control premium paid, which falls under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Such gain was reflected in other income in our Advisory segment in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

FASB ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments” requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Our financial instruments are as follows:

| • | Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash – These balances include cash and cash equivalents as well as restricted cash with maturities of less than three months. The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

| • | Receivables, less Allowance for Doubtful Accounts – Due to their short-term nature, fair value approximates carrying value.

| • | Warehouse Receivables and Advance Warehouse Funding – These balances are carried at fair value. The primary source of value is either a contractual purchase commitment from Freddie Mac or a confirmed forward trade commitment for the issuance and purchase of a Fannie Mae or Ginnie Mae MBS (see Note 4).

| • | Available for Sale Debt Securities – These investments are carried at their fair value.

| • | Equity Securities – These investments are carried at their fair value.

| • | Securities Sold, not yet Purchased – These liabilities are carried at their fair value.

| • | Short-Term Borrowings – The majority of this balance represents outstanding amounts under our warehouse lines of credit of our wholly-owned subsidiary, CBRE Capital Markets, and our revolving credit facility. Due to the short-term nature and variable interest rates of these instruments, fair value approximates carrying value (see Notes 4 and 8).

| • | Senior Term Loans – Based upon information from third-party banks (which falls within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy), the estimated fair value of our senior term loans was approximately $734.0 million at September 30, 2019 and $757.0 million at December 31, 2018. Their actual carrying value, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, totaled $731.8 million and $751.3 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively (see Note 8).

| • | Interest Rate Swaps – These liabilities are carried at their fair value as calculated by using widely-accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative.

| • | Senior Notes – Based on dealers’ quotes (which falls within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy), the estimated fair values of our 4.875% senior notes and 5.25% senior notes were $671.7 million and $477.8 million, respectively, at September 30, 2019 and $616.4 million and $443.7 million, respectively, at December 31, 2018. The actual carrying value of our 4.875% senior notes and 5.25% senior notes, net of unamortized debt issuance costs as well as unamortized discount or premium, if applicable, totaled $593.4 million and $422.9 million, respectively, at September 30, 2019 and $592.8 million and $422.7 million, respectively, at December 31, 2018.

We maintain credit facilities with third-party lenders, which we use for a variety of purposes. On October 31, 2017, CBRE Services, Inc. (CBRE Services), our wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into a Credit Agreement (the 2017 Credit Agreement), which refinanced and replaced our prior credit agreement (the 2015 Credit Agreement). On December 20, 2018, CBRE Global Acquisition Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CBRE Services, entered into an incremental term loan assumption agreement with a syndicate of banks jointly led by Wells Fargo Bank and National Westminster Bank plc to establish a new euro term loan facility under the 2017 Credit Agreement in an aggregate principal amount of €400.0 million. The proceeds of the new euro term loan facility were used to repay a portion of the U.S. dollar denominated term loans outstanding under the 2017 Credit Agreement. On March 4, 2019, CBRE Services entered into a n additional incremental assumption agreement with respect to the 2017 Credit Agreement (the 2017 Agreement as amended by such incremental assumption agreement, the 2019 Credit Agreement), which (i) extended the maturity of the U.S. dollar tranche A term loans under the 2017 Credit Agreement, (ii) extended the termination date of the revolving credit commitments available under the 2017 Credit Agreement and (iii) made certain changes to the interest rates and fees applicable to such tranche A term loans and revolving credit commitments. The proceeds from the new tranche A term loan facility under the 2019 Credit Agreement were used to repay the $300.0 million of tranche A term loans outstanding under the 2017 Credit Agreement.

The 2019 Credit Agreement is a senior unsecured credit facility that is jointly and severally guaranteed by us and certain of our subsidiaries. As of September 30, 2019, the 2019 Credit Agreement provided for the following: (1) a $2.8 billion incremental revolving credit facility, which includes the capacity to obtain letters of credit and swingline loans and terminates on March 4, 2024; (2) a $300.0 million incremental tranche A term loan facility maturing on March 4, 2024, requiring quarterly principal payments unless our leverage ratio (as defined in the 2019 Credit Agreement) is less than or equal to 2.50 to 1.00 on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding any such payment date and (3) a €400.0 million term loan facility due and payable in full at maturity on December 20, 2023.

The 2017 Credit Agreement was a senior unsecured credit facility that was jointly and severally guaranteed by us and certain of our subsidiaries. Our 2017 Credit Agreement provided for the following: (1) a $2.8 billion revolving credit facility, which included the capacity to obtain letters of credit and swingline loans and had a termination date of October 31, 2022; (2) a $750.0 million delayed draw tranche A term loan facility which would have matured on October 31, 2022 and which required quarterly principal payments unless our leverage ratio (as defined in the 2017 Credit Agreement) was less than or equal to 2.50 to 1.00 on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding any such payment date and (3) a €400.0 million term loan facility which would have been due and payable in full at maturity on December 20, 2023.

The indentures governing our 4.875% senior notes and 5.25% senior notes contain restrictive covenants that, among other things, limit our ability to create or permit liens on assets securing indebtedness, enter into sale/leaseback transactions and enter into consolidations or mergers. In addition, our 2019 Credit Agreement also requires us to maintain a minimum coverage ratio of consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the 2019 Credit Agreement) to consolidated interest expense of 2.00x and a maximum leverage ratio of total debt less available cash to consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the 2019 Credit Agreement) of 4.25x (and in the case of the first four full fiscal quarters following consummation of a qualified acquisition (as defined in the 2019 Credit Agreement), 4.75x) as of the end of each fiscal quarter. On this basis, our coverage ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense was 22.21x for the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2019, and our leverage ratio of total debt less available cash to consolidated EBITDA was 0.65x as of September 30, 2019.

Short-Term Borrowings

Revolving Credit Facility

The revolving credit facility under the 2019 Credit Agreement allows for borrowings outside of the U.S., with a $200.0 million sub-facility available to CBRE Services, one of our Canadian subsidiaries, one of our Australian subsidiaries and one of our New Zealand subsidiaries and a $300.0 million sub-facility available to CBRE Services and one of our U.K. subsidiaries. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest at varying rates, based at our option, on either (1) the applicable fixed rate plus 0.680% to 1.075% or (2) the daily rate plus 0.0% to 0.075%, in each case as determined by reference to our Credit Rating (as defined in the 2019 Credit Agreement). The 2019 Credit Agreement requires us to pay a fee based on the total amount of the revolving credit facility commitment (whether used or unused). As of September 30, 2019, $52.0 million was outstanding under the revolving credit facility. In addition, as of September 30, 2019, letters of credit totaling $2.0 million were outstanding under our revolving credit facility. These letters of credit, which reduce the amount we may borrow under the revolving credit facility, were primarily issued in the ordinary course of business.

Warehouse Lines of Credit

CBRE Capital Markets has warehouse lines of credit with third-party lenders for the purpose of funding mortgage loans that will be resold, and a funding arrangement with Fannie Mae for the purpose of selling a percentage of certain closed multifamily loans to Fannie Mae. These warehouse lines are recourse only to CBRE Capital Markets and are secured by our related warehouse receivables. See Note 4 for additional information.

9. | Leases

We are the lessee in contracts for our office space tenancies and leased vehicles. These arrangements account for the significant portion of our lease liabilities and right-of-use assets. We continually monitor our service arrangements to evaluate whether they meet the definition of a lease.

The base terms for our lease arrangements typically do not extend beyond 10 years. We commonly have renewal options in our leases, but most of these options do not create a significant economic incentive for us to extend the lease term. Therefore, payments during periods covered by these renewal options are typically not included in our lease liabilities and right-of-use assets. Specific to our vehicle leases, early termination options are common and economic penalties associated with early termination of these contracts are typically significant enough to make it reasonably certain that we will not exercise such options. Therefore, payments during periods covered by these early termination options in vehicle leases are typically included in our lease liabilities and right-of-use assets. As an accounting policy election, our short-term leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recognized as lease liabilities and right-of-use assets in the consolidated balance sheets. The rent expense associated with short term leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Most of our office space leases include variable payments based on our share of actual common area maintenance and operating costs of the leased property. Many of our vehicle leases include variable payments based on actual service and fuel costs. For both office space and vehicle leases, we have elected the practical expedient to not separate lease components from non-lease components. Therefore, these costs are classified as variable lease payments.

Lease payments are typically discounted at our incremental borrowing rate because the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be readily determined in the absence of key inputs which are typically not reported by our lessors. Because we do not generally borrow on a collateralized basis, judgement was used to estimate the secured borrowing rate associated with our leases based on relevant market data and our inputs applied to accepted valuation methodologies. The incremental borrowing rate calculated for each lease also reflects the lease term, currency, and geography specific to each lease.

1 0. | Commitments and Contingencies

We are a party to a number of pending or threatened lawsuits arising out of, or incident to, our ordinary course of business. We believe that any losses in excess of the amounts accrued therefore as liabilities on our financial statements are unlikely to be significant, but litigation is inherently uncertain and there is the potential for a material adverse effect on our financial statements if one or more matters are resolved in a particular period in an amount materially in excess of what we anticipated.

In January 2008, CBRE MCI, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CBRE Capital Markets, entered into an agreement with Fannie Mae under Fannie Mae’s Delegated Underwriting and Servicing Lender Program (DUS Program), to provide financing for multifamily housing with five or more units. Under the DUS Program, CBRE MCI originates, underwrites, closes and services loans without prior approval by Fannie Mae, and typically, is subject to sharing up to one-third of any losses on loans originated under the DUS Program. CBRE MCI has funded loans subject to such loss sharing arrangements with unpaid principal balances of $27.2 billion at September 30, 2019. CBRE MCI, under its agreement with Fannie Mae, must post cash reserves or other acceptable collateral under formulas established by Fannie Mae to provide for sufficient capital in the event losses occur. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, CBRE MCI had a $72.0 million and a $64.0 million, respectively, letter of credit under this reserve arrangement, and had recorded a liability of approximately $43.7 million and $37.9 million, respectively, for its loan loss guarantee obligation under such arrangement. Fannie Mae’s recourse under the DUS Program is limited to the assets of CBRE MCI, which assets totaled approximately $1.2 billion (including $486.5 million of warehouse receivables and $376.7 million of advance warehouse funding, a substantial majority of which are pledged against warehouse lines of credit and are therefore not available to Fannie Mae) at September 30, 2019.

CBRE Capital Markets participates in Freddie Mac’s Multifamily Small Balance Loan (SBL) Program. Under the SBL program, CBRE Capital Markets has certain repurchase and loss reimbursement obligations. These obligations are for the period from origination of the loan to the securitization date. CBRE Capital Markets must post a cash reserve or other acceptable collateral to provide for sufficient capital in the event the obligations are triggered. As of both September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, CBRE Capital Markets had posted a $5.0 million letter of credit under this reserve arrangement.

We had outstanding letters of credit totaling $90.8 million as of September 30, 2019, excluding letters of credit for which we have outstanding liabilities already accrued on our consolidated balance sheet related to our subsidiaries’ outstanding reserves for claims under certain insurance programs as well as letters of credit related to operating leases. The CBRE Capital Markets letters of credit totaling $77.0 million as of September 30, 2019 referred to in the preceding paragraphs represented the majority of the $90.8 million outstanding letters of credit as of such date. The remaining letters of credit are primarily executed by us in the ordinary course of business and expire at varying dates through July 2020.

We had guarantees totaling $56.4 million as of September 30, 2019, excluding guarantees related to pension liabilities, consolidated indebtedness and other obligations for which we have outstanding liabilities already accrued on our consolidated balance sheet, and excluding guarantees related to operating leases. The $56.4 million primarily represents guarantees executed by us in the ordinary course of business, including various guarantees of management and vendor contracts in our operations overseas, which expire at the end of each of the respective agreements.

In addition, as of September 30, 2019, we had issued numerous non-recourse carveout, completion and budget guarantees relating to development projects for the benefit of third parties. These guarantees are commonplace in our industry and are made by us in the ordinary course of our Real Estate Investments business. Non-recourse carveout guarantees generally require that our project-entity borrower not commit specified improper acts, with us potentially liable for all or a portion of such entity’s indebtedness or other damages suffered by the lender if those acts occur. Completion and budget guarantees generally require us to complete construction of the relevant project within a specified timeframe and/or within a specified budget, with us potentially being liable for costs to complete in excess of such timeframe or budget. However, we generally use “guaranteed maximum price” contracts with reputable, bondable general contractors with respect to projects for which we provide these guarantees. These contracts are intended to pass the risk to such contractors. While there can be no assurance, we do not expect to incur any material losses under these guarantees.

An important part of the strategy for our Real Estate Investments business involves investing our capital in certain real estate investments with our clients. These co-investments generally total up to 2.0% of the equity in a particular fund. As of September 30, 2019, we had aggregate commitments of $55.2 million to fund these future co-investments. Additionally, an important part of our Real Estate Investments business strategy is to invest in unconsolidated real estate subsidiaries as a principal (in most cases co-investing with our clients). As of September 30, 2019, we had committed to fund $45.8 million of additional capital to these unconsolidated subsidiaries.

11. | Income Taxes

Our provision for income taxes on a consolidated basis was $63.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $95.0 million for the same period in 2018. Our effective tax rate decreased from 24.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 to 19.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The lower tax rate for three months ended September 30, 2019 primarily resulted from the realization of a $22.1 million net tax benefit for tax over book basis in a foreign subsidiary that is expected to reverse in the foreseeable future. We benefited from discrete items for the three months ended September 30, 2019 that exceeded the benefits for other discrete items for the prior-year period.

Our provision for income taxes on a consolidated basis was $169.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $211.4 million for the same period in 2018. Our effective tax rate decreased from 23.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to 20.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The lower tax rate for nine months ended September 30, 2019 primarily resulted from the realization of a $22.1 million net tax benefit for tax over book basis in a foreign subsidiary that is expected to reverse in the foreseeable future. We benefited from discrete items for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 that exceeded the benefits for other discrete items for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

At December 31, 2018, we had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $95.0 million. In the third quarter of 2019, we recorded gross unrecognized tax benefits of $22.9 million, primarily related to the sustainability of certain tax attributes in light of unsettled tax law.

During the month of January 2019, we spent $45.1 million to repurchase an additional 1,144,449 shares of our Class A common stock with an average price paid per share of $39.38.

In February 2019, our board of directors authorized a new program for the company to repurchase up to $300.0 million of our Class A common stock over three years, effective March 11, 2019. The previous program terminated upon the effectiveness of the new program. In August 2019, our board of directors authorized an additional $100.0 million under our new program, bringing the total authorized amount under the new program to a total of $400.0 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2019, we spent $49.0 million to repurchase an additional 932,973 shares of our Class A common stock with an average price paid per share of $52.50.

1 4. | Segments

On August 17, 2018, we announced a new organizational structure that became effective on January 1, 2019. Under the new structure, we organize our operations around, and publicly report our financial results on, three global business segments: (1) Advisory Services; (2) Global Workplace Solutions and (3) Real Estate Investments.

Advisory Services provides a comprehensive range of services globally, including property leasing, property sales, mortgage services, valuation, property management and project management. Global Workplace Solutions provides a broad suite of integrated, contractually-based services to occupiers of real estate, including facilities management, project management, transaction management and management consulting. Real Estate Investments includes: (i) investment management services provided globally; (ii) development services in the U.S. and (iii) a new service designed to help institutional property owners meet the demand for flexible office space solutions.

Summarized financial information by segment is as follows (dollars in thousands):

(1) | Results for 2018 have been presented in conformity with the new structure.

Adjusted EBITDA is the measure reported to the chief operating decision maker (CODM) for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to each segment and assessing performance of each segment. EBITDA represents earnings before net interest expense, write-off of financing costs on extinguished debt, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and intangible asset impairments. Amounts shown for adjusted EBITDA further remove (from EBITDA) the impact of certain cash and non-cash items related to acquisitions, certain carried interest incentive compensation (reversal) expense to align with the timing of associated revenue, costs associated with our reorganization, including cost-savings initiatives, and other non-recurring costs.

1 6. | Subsequent Events

On July 3, 2019, we announced our intention to acquire Telford Homes Plc (Telford) in our Real Estate Investments segment. Telford develops multifamily residential properties in the London area. The acquisition closed on October 1, 2019 and was funded through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. Telford shareholders received £3.50 per share in cash, valuing Telford at £267.1 million, or $329.0 million as of the acquisition date. In addition, upon acquisition we assumed $110.9 million (£90.0 million) of debt from Telford (that we repaid in full shortly after closing) and acquired cash from Telford of $7.9 million (£6.4 million).

During the month of October 2019, we spent $51.0 million to repurchase an additional 1,003,485 shares of our Class A common stock with an average price paid per share of $50.85.

Item 2. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Quarterly Report) for CBRE Group, Inc. for the three months ended September 30, 2019 represents an update to the more detailed and comprehensive disclosures included in our Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Accordingly, you should read the following discussion in conjunction with the information included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 as well as the unaudited financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

In addition, the statements and assumptions in this Quarterly Report that are not statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 or Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, each as amended, including, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies and prospects as well as estimates of industry growth for the next quarter and beyond. For important information regarding these forward-looking statements, please see the discussion below under the caption “Cautionary Note on Forward-Looking Statements.”

Overview

CBRE Group, Inc. is a Delaware corporation. References to “the company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to CBRE Group, Inc. and include all of its consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise indicated or the context requires otherwise.

We are the world’s largest commercial real estate services and investment firm, based on 2018 revenue, with leading global market positions in our advisory leasing, advisory property sales, occupier outsourcing and valuation businesses. As of December 31, 2018, we operated in more than 480 offices worldwide with over 90,000 employees, excluding independent affiliates.

Our business is focused on providing services to real estate occupiers and investors. For occupiers, we provide facilities management, project management, transaction (both property sales and leasing) and consulting services, among others. For investors, we provide capital markets (property sales, commercial mortgage brokerage, loan origination and servicing), leasing, investment management, property management, valuation and development services, among others. We provide services under the following brand names: “CBRE” (real estate advisory and outsourcing services); “CBRE Global Investors” (investment management); “Trammell Crow Company” (development); and “Hana” (flexible-space solutions).

Our revenue mix has shifted in recent years toward more contractual revenue as occupiers and investors increasingly prefer to purchase integrated, account-based services from firms that meet the full spectrum of their needs nationally and globally. We believe we are well-positioned to capture a growing share of this business. We generate revenue from both management fees (large multi-year portfolio and per-project contracts) and commissions on transactions. Our contractual, fee-for-services businesses generally involve occupier outsourcing (including facilities and project management), property management, investment management, appraisal/valuation and loan servicing. In addition, our leasing services business line is largely recurring in nature over time.

In 2018, we generated revenue from a highly diversified base of clients, including more than 90 of the Fortune 100 companies. We have been an S&P 500 company since 2006 and in 2019 we were ranked #146 on the Fortune 500. We have been voted the most recognized commercial real estate brand in the Lipsey Company survey for 18 years in a row (including 2019). We have also been rated a World’s Most Ethical Company by the Ethisphere Institute for six consecutive years (including 2019).

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts. The estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and on other factors that we believe to be reasonable. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Critical accounting policies represent the areas where more significant judgments and estimates are used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. A discussion of such critical accounting policies, which include revenue recognition, goodwill and other intangible assets, and income taxes can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. There have been no material changes to these policies as of September 30, 2019.

New Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) set forth in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Seasonality

A significant portion of our revenue is seasonal, which an investor should keep in mind when comparing our financial condition and results of operations on a quarter-by-quarter basis. Historically, our revenue, operating income, net income and cash flow from operating activities tend to be lowest in the first quarter, and highest in the fourth quarter of each year. Revenue, earnings and cash flow have generally been concentrated in the fourth calendar quarter due to the focus on completing sales, financing and leasing transactions prior to year-end.

Inflation

Our commissions and other variable costs related to revenue are primarily affected by commercial real estate market supply and demand, which may be affected by inflation. However, to date, we do not believe that general inflation has had a material impact upon our operations.

Items Affecting Comparability

When you read our financial statements and the information included in this Quarterly Report, you should consider that we have experienced, and continue to experience, several material trends and uncertainties that have affected our financial condition and results of operations that make it challenging to predict our future performance based on our historical results. We believe that the following material trends and uncertainties are crucial to an understanding of the variability in our historical earnings and cash flows and the potential for continued variability in the future.

Macroeconomic Conditions

Economic trends and government policies affect global and regional commercial real estate markets as well as our operations directly. These include: overall economic activity and employment growth; interest rate levels and changes in interest rates; the cost and availability of credit; and the impact of tax and regulatory policies. Periods of economic weakness or recession, significantly rising interest rates, fiscal uncertainty, declining employment levels, decreasing demand for commercial real estate, falling real estate values, disruption to the global capital or credit markets, or the public perception that any of these events may occur, will negatively affect the performance of our business.

Compensation is our largest expense and our sales and leasing professionals generally are paid on a commission and/or bonus basis that correlates with their revenue production. As a result, the negative effect of difficult market conditions on our operating margins is partially mitigated by the inherent variability of our compensation cost structure. In addition, when negative economic conditions have been particularly severe, we have moved decisively to lower operating expenses to improve financial performance, and then have restored certain expenses as economic conditions improved. Nevertheless, adverse global and regional economic trends could pose significant risks to the performance of our operations and our financial condition.

Commercial real estate markets in the United States have generally been marked by increased demand for space, falling vacancies and higher rents since 2010. During this time, healthy U.S. property sales activity has been sustained by gradually improving market fundamentals, including higher occupancy rates and rents, broad, low-cost credit availability and increased institutional capital allocations to commercial real estate. In 2019, U.S. sales market activity has improved modestly from 2018 levels, as significant capital continues to be invested in commercial real estate and relatively low-cost financing remains plentiful. The market for commercial real estate leasing has remained solid in 2019, reflecting a continued healthy economy and steady employment growth.

36

In Europe, leasing demand has remained stable in 2019, though sales market volumes have softened. Notably, in the United Kingdom, continued uncertainty about the date and the terms on which the United Kingdom will leave the European Union has contributed to significantly lower sales and lease volumes throughout 2019.

In Asia Pacific, leasing activity has declined significantly in 2019 amid rising geopolitical uncertainty and slowing regional economies. However, investment activity has been more resilient and Asia Pacific investors remain a significant capital source for investment in the region and globally.

Real estate investment management and property development markets have been generally favorable with abundant debt and equity capital flows into commercial real estate. Actively managed public real estate equity strategies have been pressured by a shift in investor preferences from active to passive portfolio strategies.

The performance of our global real estate services and investment businesses depends on sustained economic growth and solid job creation; stable global credit markets; and positive business and investor sentiment.

Effects of Acquisitions

We historically have made significant use of strategic acquisitions to add and enhance service competencies around the world. On June 12, 2018, CBRE Jason Acquisition LLC (Merger Sub), our wholly-owned subsidiary, and FacilitySource Holdings, LLC (FacilitySource), WP X Finance, LP and Warburg Pincus X Partners, LP (collectively, the Stockholders) entered into a stock purchase agreement and plan of merger (the Merger Agreement). As part of the Merger Agreement, (i) we purchased from the Stockholders all the outstanding shares of capital stock of FS WP Holdco, Inc (Blocker Corp), which owned 1,686,013 Class A units (the Blocker Units) and (ii) immediately following the acquisition of Blocker Corp, Merger Sub merged with FacilitySource, with FacilitySource continuing as the surviving company and our wholly-owned subsidiary within our Global Workplace Solutions segment (the FacilitySource Acquisition), with the remaining Blocker Units not held by Blocker Corp. canceled and converted into the right to receive cash consideration as set forth in the Merger Agreement. The final net purchase price was approximately $266.5 million in cash, with $263.0 million paid in 2018 and $3.5 million paid in 2019. We financed the transaction with cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. We completed the FacilitySource Acquisition to help us (i) build a tech-enabled supply chain capability for the occupier outsourcing industry and (ii) drive meaningfully differentiated outcomes for leading occupiers of real estate.

Strategic in-fill acquisitions have also played a key role in strengthening our service offerings. The companies we acquired have generally been regional or specialty firms that complement our existing platform, or independent affiliates in which, in some cases, we held a small equity interest. During 2018, we acquired a retail leasing and property management firm in Australia, two firms in Israel (our former affiliate and a majority interest in a local facilities management provider), a commercial real estate services provider in San Antonio, a provider of real estate and facilities consulting services to healthcare companies across the United States and the remaining 50% equity interest in our longstanding New England joint venture. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we acquired the assets of a leading advanced analytics software company based in the United Kingdom which provides technology and consulting services for large global data center operators, a commercial and residential real estate appraisal firm headquartered in Florida, our former affiliate in Omaha and a project management firm in Australia. During the month of October 2019, we acquired a small valuation and consulting business in Switzerland and a leading project management firm in Israel.

On July 3, 2019, we announced our intention to acquire Telford Homes Plc (Telford) in our Real Estate Investments segment. Telford develops multifamily residential properties in the London area. The acquisition closed on October 1, 2019 and was funded through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. Telford shareholders received £3.50 per share in cash, valuing Telford at £267.1 million, or $329.0 million as of the acquisition date. In addition, upon acquisition we assumed $110.9 million (£90.0 million) of debt from Telford (that we repaid in full shortly after closing) and acquired cash from Telford of $7.9 million (£6.4 million).

We believe that strategic acquisitions can significantly decrease the cost, time and commitment of management resources necessary to attain a meaningful competitive position within targeted markets or to expand our presence within our current markets. In general, however, most acquisitions will initially have an adverse impact on our operating and net income as a result of transaction-related expenditures. These include severance, lease termination, transaction and deferred financing costs, among others, and the charges and costs of integrating the acquired business and its financial and accounting systems into our own.

37

Our acquisition structures often include deferred and/or contingent purchase price payments in future periods that are subject to the passage of time or achievement of certain performance metrics and other conditions. As of September 30, 201 9, we have accrued deferred consideration totaling $113.2 million, which is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses and in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets set forth in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

International Operations

We are monitoring the economic and political developments related to the United Kingdom’s referendum to leave the European Union and the potential impact on our businesses in the United Kingdom and the rest of Europe, including, in particular, sales and leasing activity in the United Kingdom, as well as any associated currency volatility impact on our results of operations.

As we continue to increase our international operations through either acquisitions or organic growth, fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to the other currencies in which we may generate earnings could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. Our Real Estate Investments business has a significant amount of euro-denominated assets under management, or AUM, as well as associated revenue and earnings in Europe. In addition, our Global Workplace Solutions business also has a significant amount of its revenue and earnings denominated in foreign currencies, such as the euro and the British pound sterling. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates have resulted and may continue to result in corresponding fluctuations in our AUM, revenue and earnings.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, approximately 41% of our business was transacted in non-U.S. dollar currencies, the majority of which included the Australian dollar, Brazilian real, British pound sterling, Canadian dollar, Chinese yuan, Danish krone, euro, Hong Kong dollar, Indian rupee, Israeli shekel, Japanese yen, Mexican peso, New Zealand dollar, Polish zloty, Singapore dollar, Swedish krona, Swiss franc and Thai baht.

Although we operate globally, we report our results in U.S. dollars. As a result, the strengthening or weakening of the U.S. dollar may positively or negatively impact our reported results. For example, we estimate that had the British pound sterling-to-U.S. dollar exchange rates been 10% higher during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the net impact would have been an increase in pre-tax income of $4.3 million. Had the euro-to-U.S. dollar exchange rates been 10% higher during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the net impact would have been an increase in pre-tax income of $4.9 million. These hypothetical calculations estimate the impact of translating results into U.S. dollars and do not include an estimate of the impact that a 10% change in the U.S. dollar against other currencies would have had on our foreign operations.

Due to the constantly changing currency exposures to which we are subject and the volatility of currency exchange rates, we cannot predict the effect of exchange rate fluctuations upon future operating results. In addition, fluctuations in currencies relative to the U.S. dollar may make it more difficult to perform period-to-period comparisons of our reported results of operations. Our international operations also are subject to, among other things, political instability and changing regulatory environments, which affect the currency markets and which as a result may adversely affect our future financial condition and results of operations. We routinely monitor these risks and related costs and evaluate the appropriate amount of oversight to allocate towards business activities in foreign countries where such risks and costs are particularly significant.

Fee reve nue and adjusted EBITDA are not recognized measurements under GAAP. When analyzing our operating performance, investors should use these measures in addition to, and not as an alternative for, their most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We generally use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate operating performance and for other discretionary purposes. We believe these measures provide a more complete understanding of ongoing operations, enhance comparability of current results to prior periods and may be useful for investors to analyze our financial performance because they eliminate the impact of selected charges that may obscure trends in the underlying performance of our business. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of fee revenue and adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Fee revenue is gross revenue less both client reimbursed costs largely associated with employees that are dedicated to client facilities and subcontracted vendor work performed for clients. We believe that investors may find this measure useful to analyze the company’s overall financial performance because it excludes costs reimbursable by clients, and as such provides greater visibility into the underlying performance of our business.

EBITDA represents earnings before net interest expense, write-off of financing costs on extinguished debt, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and intangible asset impairments. Amounts shown for adjusted EBITDA further remove (from EBITDA) the impact of certain cash and non-cash items related to acquisitions, certain carried interest incentive compensation (reversal) expense to align with the timing of associated revenue, costs associated with our reorganization, including cost-savings initiatives, and other non-recurring costs. We believe that investors may find these measures useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry because their calculations generally eliminate the effects of acquisitions, which would include impairment charges of goodwill and intangibles created from acquisitions, the effects of financings and income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending.

Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for our discretionary use because it does not consider certain cash requirements such as tax and debt service payments. These measures may also differ from the amounts calculated under similarly titled definitions in our debt instruments, which are further adjusted to reflect certain other cash and non-cash charges and are used by us to determine compliance with financial covenants therein and our ability to engage in certain activities, such as incurring additional debt and making certain restricted payments. We also use adjusted EBITDA as a significant component when measuring our operating performance under our employee incentive compensation programs.

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as follows (dollars in thousands):

Three Months Ended September 30, 201 9 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 201 8

We reported consolidated net income of $256.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 on revenue of $5.9 billion as compared to consolidated net income of $290.5 million on revenue of $5.3 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Our revenue on a consolidated basis for the three months ended September 30, 2019 increased by $664.1 million, or 12.6%, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. The revenue increase reflects strong organic growth fueled by higher revenue in our Global Workplace Solutions segment (up 15.3%) and improved revenue in our Advisory Services segment due to property and advisory project management revenue (up 12.0%) as well as increased advisory sales (up 8.2%), commercial mortgage origination activity (up 23.7%) and advisory leasing (up 3.9%). Foreign currency translation had a $98.1 million negative impact on total revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2019, primarily driven by weakness in the Argentine peso, Australian dollar, British pound sterling and euro.

Our cost of services on a consolidated basis increased by $588.4 million, or 14.4%, during the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018. This increase was primarily due to higher costs associated with our Global Workplace Solutions segment. In addition, our sales professionals generally are paid on a commission basis, which substantially correlates with our transaction revenue performance. Accordingly, the increase in advisory sales and lease transaction revenue led to a corresponding increase in commission expense. Lastly, higher costs in our property and advisory project management business also contributed to the increase. These items were partially offset by the impact of foreign currency translation, which had a $79.3 million positive impact on total cost of services during the three months ended September 30, 2019. Cost of services as a percentage of revenue increased from 77.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 to 79.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, primarily driven by our mix of revenue, with revenue from our Global Workplace Solutions segment, which has a lower margin than our other revenue streams, comprising a higher percentage of revenue than in the prior period.

Our operating, administrative and other expenses on a consolidated basis decreased by $49.5 million, or 5.8%, during the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018. This decrease was primarily driven by lower bonuses in our Real Estate Investment segment (driven by lower property sales in the third quarter of 2019 as compared to the same period in the prior year, which were reflected in equity income from unconsolidated subsidiaries). During the third quarter of 2018, we also incurred $12.8 million of costs in connection with our reorganization (including cost-savings initiatives) and $8.9 million of costs as a result of a litigation settlement, both of which did not recur in the third quarter of 2019. Foreign currency translation also had a $14.7 million positive impact on total operating expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2019. These items were partially offset by higher payroll-related costs incurred during the third quarter of 2019. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased from 16.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 to 13.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, reflecting the operating leverage inherent in our business.

Our depreciation and amortization expense on a consolidated basis decreased by $1.9 million, or 1.7%, during the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018. This decrease was primarily attributable to $5.4 million of lower amortization expense largely associated with intangibles from prior acquisitions. The decrease in amortization expense was partially offset by a rise in depreciation expense of $3.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2019 driven by technology-related capital expenditures.

Our equity income from unconsolidated subsidiaries on a consolidated basis decreased by $101.0 million, or 79.7%, during the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily driven by lower equity earnings associated with gains on property sales reported in our Real Estate Investments segment.

Our other income on a consolidated basis was $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $95.5 million for the same period in 2018. The income in the prior year included a one-time gain of $92.6 million associated with remeasuring our investment in a previously unconsolidated subsidiary in New England in our Advisory Services segment to fair value as of the date we acquired the remaining controlling interest.

41

Our consolidated interest expense, net of interest income, on a consolidated basis de creased by $3.6 million, or 14.1%, during the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018. The decrease was primarily driven by lower interest expense incurred on borrowings under our credit agreement, including our senior term loans and our revolving credit facility.

Our provision for income taxes on a consolidated basis was $63.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $95.0 million for the same period in 2018. Our effective tax rate decreased from 24.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 to 19.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The lower tax rate for three months ended September 30, 2019 primarily resulted from the realization of a $22.1 million net tax benefit for tax over book basis in a foreign subsidiary that is expected to reverse in the foreseeable future. We benefited from discrete items for the three months ended September 30, 2019 that exceeded the benefits for other discrete items for the prior-year period.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018

We reported consolidated net income of $644.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 on revenue of $16.8 billion as compared to consolidated net income of $669.4 million on revenue of $15.0 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Our revenue on a consolidated basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased by $1.7 billion, or 11.5%, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The revenue increase reflects strong organic growth fueled by higher revenue in our Global Workplace Solutions segment (up 13.0%) and improved revenue in our Advisory Services segment due to property and advisory project management revenue (up 10.1%) as well as increased advisory leasing (up 13.5%) and commercial mortgage origination activity (up 17.7%). Foreign currency translation had a $398.8 million negative impact on total revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, primarily driven by weakness in the Argentine peso, Australian dollar, British pound sterling, Canadian dollar, euro and Indian rupee.

Our cost of services on a consolidated basis increased by $1.5 billion, or 12.7%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018. This increase was primarily due to higher costs associated with our Global Workplace Solutions segment. In addition, our sales professionals generally are paid on a commission basis, which substantially correlates with our transaction revenue performance. Accordingly, the increase in advisory lease transaction revenue led to a corresponding increase in commission expense. Higher costs in our property and advisory project management business also contributed to the increase. Lastly, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we incurred $2.6 million of costs in connection with our reorganization (including cost-savings initiatives). These items were partially offset by the impact of foreign currency translation, which had a $321.2 million positive impact on total cost of services during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Cost of services as a percentage of revenue increased from 77.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to 78.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, primarily driven by our mix of revenue, with revenue from our Global Workplace Solutions segment, which has a lower margin than our other revenue streams, comprising a higher percentage of revenue than in the prior period.

Our operating, administrative and other expenses on a consolidated basis increased by $62.3 million, or 2.6%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we incurred $47.0 million of costs in connection with our reorganization (including cost-savings initiatives) as compared to $12.8 million of such costs incurred in the prior year period. Additionally, in the current year, we incurred higher payroll-related costs, integration and other costs associated with acquisitions (primarily due to the recently closed Telford acquisition) as well as higher carried interest expense. These items were partially offset by the impact of foreign currency translation, which had a $64.8 million positive impact on total operating expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as well as lower bonuses in our Real Estate Investment segment (driven by lower property sales in the first nine months of 2019 as compared to the same period in the prior year, which were reflected in equity income from unconsolidated subsidiaries). During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we also incurred $8.9 million of costs as a result of a litigation settlement, which did not recur in the current year. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased from 16.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to 14.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, reflecting the operating leverage inherent in our business.

42

Our depreciation and amortization expense on a consolidated basis decreased by $11.2 million, or 3.3%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018. This decrease was primarily attributable to $20.9 million of lower amortization expense largely associated with intangibles from prior acquisitions. The decrease in amortization expense was partially offset by a rise in depreciation expense of $9.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 driven by technology-related capital expenditures.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recorded an intangible asset impairment of $89.0 million in our Real Estate Investments segment. This non-cash write-off resulted from a review of the anticipated cash flows and the decrease in assets under management in our public securities business driven in part by continued industry-wide shift in investor preference for passive investment programs.

Our gain on disposition of real estate on a consolidated basis increased by $6.7 million, or 53.3%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018. These gains resulted from property sales within our Real Estate Investments segment.

Our equity income from unconsolidated subsidiaries on a consolidated basis decreased by $142.8 million, or 54.3%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily driven by lower equity earnings associated with gains on property sales reported in our Real Estate Investments segment.

Our other income on a consolidated basis was $26.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 versus $95.2 million for the same period in the prior year. The income in the current year was primarily driven by net realized and unrealized gains related to co-investments in our real estate securities business within our Real Estate Investments segment. The income in the prior year included a one-time gain of $92.6 million associated with remeasuring our investment in a previously unconsolidated subsidiary in New England in our Advisory Services segment to fair value as of the date we acquired the remaining controlling interest.

Our consolidated interest expense, net of interest income, decreased by $8.4 million, or 11.1%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease was primarily driven by the early redemption, in full, of the $800.0 million aggregate outstanding principal amount of our 5.00% senior notes in the first quarter of 2018.

Our write-off of financing costs on extinguished debt on a consolidated basis was $2.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $28.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 were incurred in connection with the refinancing of our credit agreement. The costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 included a $20.0 million premium paid and the write-off of $8.0 million of unamortized deferred financing costs in connection with the early redemption, in full, of the $800.0 million aggregate outstanding principal amount of our 5.00% senior notes.

Our provision for income taxes on a consolidated basis was $169.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $211.4 million for the same period in 2018. Our effective tax rate decreased from 23.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to 20.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The lower tax rate for nine months ended September 30, 2019 primarily resulted from the realization of a $22.1 million net tax benefit for tax over book basis in a foreign subsidiary that is expected to reverse in the foreseeable future. We benefited from discrete items for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 that exceeded the benefits for other discrete items for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2018

Revenue increased by $181.4 million, or 8.8%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. The revenue increase reflects strong organic growth fueled by higher leasing, commercial mortgage origination and sales activity as well as improved property and advisory project management revenue. Foreign currency translation had a $28.0 million negative impact on total revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2019, primarily driven by weakness in the Australian dollar, British pound sterling and euro.

44

Cost of services increased by $120.1 m illion, or 9.6%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due t o higher commission expense resulting from improved lease and sales transaction revenue. Higher costs in our property and advisory project management business also contributed to the increase. Foreign currency translation had a $16.8 million positive impact on total cost of services during the three months ended September 30, 2019. Cost of services as a percentage of revenue was relatively consistent at 61.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to 60.7% for the same period in 2018.

Operating, administrative and other expenses decreased by $10.6 million, or 2.0%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. During the third quarter of 2018, we incurred $10.9 million of costs in connection with our reorganization (including cost-savings initiatives) and $8.9 million of costs as a result of a litigation settlement, both of which did not recur in the third quarter of 2019. Foreign currency translation had an $8.6 million positive impact on total operating expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2019. These items were partially offset by higher payroll-related and occupancy costs incurred in the third quarter of 2019, both partially driven by in-fill acquisitions.

In connection with the origination and sale of mortgage loans for which the company retains servicing rights, we record servicing assets or liabilities based on the fair value of the retained mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) on the date the loans are sold. Upon origination of a mortgage loan held for sale, the fair value of the mortgage servicing rights to be retained is included in the forecasted proceeds from the anticipated loan sale and results in a net gain (which is reflected in revenue). Subsequent to the initial recording, MSRs are amortized (within amortization expense) and carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value in other intangible assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. They are amortized in proportion to and over the estimated period that the servicing income is expected to be received. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, MSRs contributed to operating income $59.6 million of gains recognized in conjunction with the origination and sale of mortgage loans, offset by $32.8 million of amortization of related intangible assets. For the three months ended September 30, 2018, MSRs contributed to operating income $45.6 million of gains recognized in conjunction with the origination and sale of mortgage loans, offset by $30.3 million of amortization of related intangible assets.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018

Revenue increased by $536.2 million, or 9.4%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The revenue increase reflects strong organic growth fueled by higher leasing and commercial mortgage origination activity as well as improved property and advisory project management revenue. Foreign currency translation had a $120.1 million negative impact on total revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, primarily driven by weakness in the Australian dollar, British pound sterling, Canadian dollar, euro and Indian rupee.

Cost of services increased by $353.3 million, or 10.4%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to higher commission expense resulting from improved lease transaction revenue. Higher costs in our property and advisory project management business also contributed to the increase. Foreign currency translation had a $73.4 million positive impact on total cost of services during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Cost of services as a percentage of revenue was relatively consistent at 60.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 versus 59.6% for the same period in 2018.

Operating, administrative and other expenses increased by $21.8 million, or 1.4%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase was largely driven by higher payroll-related and occupancy costs, partially driven by increased headcount. Foreign currency translation had a $39.2 million positive impact on total operating expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we also incurred $8.9 million of costs as a result of a litigation settlement, which did not recur in the current year.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, MSRs contributed to operating income $142.1 million of gains recognized in conjunction with the origination and sale of mortgage loans, offset by $89.8 million of amortization of related intangible assets. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, MSRs contributed to operating income $117.0 million of gains recognized in conjunction with the origination and sale of mortgage loans, offset by $83.8 million of amortization of related intangible assets.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2018

Revenue increased by $472.4 million, or 15.3%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. The revenue increase was fueled by growth in the market for real estate outsourcing services. Foreign currency translation had a $66.7 million negative impact on total revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2019, primarily driven by weakness in the Argentine peso, British pound sterling and euro.

Cost of services increased by $468.3 million, or 16.4%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018, driven by the higher revenue. Foreign currency translation had a $62.5 million positive impact on total cost of services during the three months ended September 30, 2019. Cost of services as a percentage of revenue was relatively consistent at 93.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 versus 92.4% for the same period in 2018.

Operating, administrative and other expenses decreased by $15.4 million, or 9.9%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease was primarily attributable to costs incurred in the prior year third quarter, which did not recur in the third quarter of 2019, including integration costs attributable to the FacilitySource acquisition and a provision for bad debt. Additionally, foreign currency translation had a $3.4 million positive impact on total operating expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018

Revenue increased by $1.2 billion, or 13.0%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The revenue increase was fueled by growth in the market for real estate outsourcing services. Foreign currency translation had a $266.3 million negative impact on total revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, primarily driven by weakness in the Argentine peso, British pound sterling, Canadian dollar, euro and Indian rupee.

Cost of services increased by $1.1 billion, or 13.6%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018, driven by the higher revenue.

Operating, administrative and other expenses increased by $14.3 million, or 3.3%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we incurred $36.3 million of severance costs in connection with our reorganization, including cost-savings initiatives, as well as higher costs attributable to the FacilitySource acquisition (acquired in June 2018). These costs were partially offset by the impact of foreign currency translation, which had a $15.7 million positive impact on total operating expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Three Months Ended September 30, 201 9 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 201 8

Revenue increased by $10.4 million, or 8.8%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018, primarily driven by higher carried interest revenue in our global investment management line of business. Foreign currency translation had a $3.4 million negative impact on total revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2019, primarily driven by weakness in the British pound sterling and euro.

Operating, administrative and other expenses decreased by $23.4 million, or 14.4%, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily driven by lower bonuses in our development services line of business (driven by lower property sales in the third quarter of 2019 as compared to the same period in the prior year, which were reflected in equity income from unconsolidated subsidiaries). Foreign currency translation also had a $2.7 million positive impact on total operating expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

A roll forward of our AUM by product type for the three months ended September 30, 2019 is as follows (dollars in billions):

|  | Funds |  |  | Separate Accounts |  |  | Securities |  |  | Total |
Balance at June 30, 2019 |  | $ | 37.8 |  |  | $ | 60.9 |  |  | $ | 8.0 |  |  | $ | 106.7 |
Inflows |  |  | 1.3 |  |  |  | 1.9 |  |  |  | 0.1 |  |  |  | 3.3 |
Outflows |  |  | (0.9 | ) |  |  | (1.4 | ) |  |  | (0.5 | ) |  |  | (2.8 | )
Market (depreciation) appreciation |  |  | (0.5 | ) |  |  | (0.9 | ) |  |  | 0.4 |  |  |  | (1.0 | )
Balance at September 30, 2019 |  | $ | 37.7 |  |  | $ | 60.5 |  |  | $ | 8.0 |  |  | $ | 106.2 |

AUM generally refers to the properties and other assets with respect to which we provide (or participate in) oversight, investment management services and other advice, and which generally consist of real estate properties or loans, securities portfolios and investments in operating companies and joint ventures. Our AUM is intended principally to reflect the extent of our presence in the real estate market, not the basis for determining our management fees. Our assets under management consist of:

| • | the total fair market value of the real estate properties and other assets either wholly-owned or held by joint ventures and other entities in which our sponsored funds or investment vehicles and client accounts have invested or to which they have provided financing. Committed (but unfunded) capital from investors in our sponsored funds is not included in this component of our AUM. The value of development properties is included at estimated completion cost. In the case of real estate operating companies, the total value of real properties controlled by the companies, generally through joint ventures, is included in AUM; and

| • | the net asset value of our managed securities portfolios, including investments (which may be comprised of committed but uncalled capital) in private real estate funds under our fund of funds investments.

Our calculation of AUM may differ from the calculations of other asset managers, and as a result, this measure may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other asset managers.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018

Revenue increased by $30.9 million, or 8.1%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018, primarily driven by higher incentive and development fees in our development services line of business. Foreign currency translation had a $12.4 million negative impact on total revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, primarily driven by weakness in the British pound sterling and euro.

48

Operating, administrative and other expenses increased by $26.1 million, or 6.1%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily driven by costs incurred in connection with the recently announced Telford acquisition as well as higher carried interest expense. H igher payroll-related costs largely attributable to our new flexible space offering also contributed to the increase. These items were partially offset by lower bonuses in our development services line of business (driven by lower property sales in the first nine months of 2019 as compared to the same period in the prior year, which were reflected in equity income from unconsolidated subsidiaries). Foreign currency translation also had a $9.9 million positive impact on total operating expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

A roll forward of our AUM by product type for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 is as follows (dollars in billions):

|  | Funds |  |  | Separate Accounts |  |  | Securities |  |  | Total |
Balance at January 1, 2019 |  | $ | 35.0 |  |  | $ | 60.2 |  |  | $ | 10.3 |  |  | $ | 105.5 |

We describe above how we calculate AUM. Also, as noted above, our calculation of AUM may differ from the calculations of other asset managers, and as a result, this measure may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other asset managers.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe that we can satisfy our working capital and funding requirements with internally generated cash flow and, as necessary, borrowings under our revolving credit facility. Our expected capital requirements for 2019 include up to approximately $215 million of anticipated capital expenditures, net of tenant concessions. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we incurred $142.2 million of capital expenditures, net of tenant concessions received. As of September 30, 2019, we had aggregate commitments of $55.2 million to fund future co-investments in our Real Estate Investments business, $6.6 million of which is expected to be funded in 2019. Additionally, as of September 30, 2019, we are committed to fund $45.8 million of additional capital to unconsolidated subsidiaries within our Real Estate Investments business, which we may be required to fund at any time. As of September 30, 2019, we had $2.7 billion of borrowings available under our $2.8 billion revolving credit facility.

We have historically relied on our internally generated cash flow and our revolving credit facility to fund our working capital, capital expenditure and general investment requirements (including strategic in-fill acquisitions) and have not sought other external sources of financing to help fund these requirements. In the absence of extraordinary events or a large strategic acquisition, we anticipate that our cash flow from operations and our revolving credit facility would be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash requirements for the foreseeable future, and at a minimum for the next 12 months. We may seek to take advantage of market opportunities to refinance existing debt instruments, as we have done in the past, with new debt instruments at interest rates, maturities and terms we deem attractive. We may also, from time to time in our sole discretion, purchase, redeem, or retire our existing senior notes, through tender offers, in privately negotiated or open market transactions, or otherwise.

As noted above, we believe that any future significant acquisitions that we may make could require us to obtain additional debt or equity financing. In the past, we have been able to obtain such financing for material transactions on terms that we believed to be reasonable. However, it is possible that we may not be able to obtain acquisition financing on favorable terms, or at all, in the future if we decide to make any further significant acquisitions.

Our long-term liquidity needs, other than those related to ordinary course obligations and commitments such as operating leases, are generally comprised of three elements. The first is the repayment of the outstanding and anticipated principal amounts of our long-term indebtedness. We are unable to project with certainty whether our long-term cash flow from operations will be sufficient to repay our long-term debt when it comes due. If our cash flow is insufficient, then we expect that we would need to refinance such indebtedness or otherwise amend its terms to extend the maturity dates. We cannot make any assurances that such refinancing or amendments would be available on attractive terms, if at all.

49

The second long-term liquidity need is the payment of obligations related to acquisitions. Our acquisition structures often include deferred and/or contingent purchase price payments in future periods that are subject to the passage of time or achievement of certain performance metrics and other conditions. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had accrued $113.2 million ($36.2 million of which was a current liability) and $136.3 million ($41.7 million of which was a current liability), respectively, of deferred purchase consideration, which was included in accounts payable and accrued expenses and in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets set forth in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Lastly, in October 2016, we announced that our board of directors had authorized the company to repurchase up to an aggregate of $250.0 million of our Class A common stock over three years. As of December 31, 2018, we spent $161.0 million to repurchase 3,980,656 shares of our Class A common stock with an average price paid per share of $40.43. During the month of January 2019, we spent $45.1 million to repurchase an additional 1,144,449 shares of our Class A common stock with an average price paid per share of $39.38. Additionally, in February 2019, our board of directors authorized a new program for the company to repurchase up to $300.0 million of our Class A common stock over three years, effective March 11, 2019. The previous program terminated upon the effectiveness of the new program. In August 2019, our board of directors authorized an additional $100.0 million under our new program, bringing the total authorized amount under the new program to a total of $400.0 million.

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, we spent $49.0 million to repurchase 932,973 shares of our Class A common stock with an average price paid per share of $52.50. During the month of October 2019, we spent $51.0 million to repurchase an additional 1,003,485 shares of our Class A common stock with an average price paid per share of $50.85. As of November 6, 2019, we had $300.0 million of capacity remaining under our current stock repurchase program. Our stock repurchases have been funded with cash on hand and we intend to continue funding future stock repurchases with existing cash. The timing of future repurchases, and the actual amounts repurchased, will depend on a variety of factors, including the market price of our common stock, general market and economic conditions and other factors.

Historical Cash Flows

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $139.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $363.0 million as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by a greater net increase in accounts receivable and contract assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $236.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $217.8 million as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease was largely driven by lower amounts paid for acquisitions in the current year. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we completed the FacilitySource acquisition, which was the primary component of cash paid for acquisitions in the prior year period. This was partially offset by the impact of both higher amounts contributed to unconsolidated subsidiaries as well as lower distributions received from unconsolidated subsidiaries in the current year.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities totaled $52.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $161.5 million as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease was primarily due to the impact of the full redemption of the $800.0 million aggregate outstanding principal amount of our 5.00% senior notes (including $20.0 million premium) during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Higher contributions received from non-controlling interests in the current year also contributed to a lower net use of cash in financing activities in the current period. These items were partially offset by the impact of higher net borrowings of $550.0 million and $89.0 million from our senior term loans and revolving credit facility, respectively, in the first three quarters of 2018, as well as repurchases of common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

50

Indebtedness

Our level of indebtedness increases the possibility that we may be unable to pay the principal amount of our indebtedness and other obligations when due. In addition, we may incur additional debt from time to time to finance strategic acquisitions, investments, joint ventures or for other purposes, subject to the restrictions contained in the documents governing our indebtedness. If we incur additional debt, the risks associated with our leverage, including our ability to service our debt, would increase.

Long-Term Debt

We maintain credit facilities with third-party lenders, which we use for a variety of purposes. On October 31, 2017, CBRE Services, Inc. (CBRE Services), our wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into a Credit Agreement (the 2017 Credit Agreement), which refinanced and replaced our prior credit agreement (the 2015 Credit Agreement). On December 20, 2018, CBRE Global Acquisition Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CBRE Services, entered into an incremental term loan assumption agreement with a syndicate of banks jointly led by Wells Fargo Bank and National Westminster Bank plc to establish a new euro term loan facility under the 2017 Credit Agreement in an aggregate principal amount of €400.0 million. The proceeds of the new euro term loan facility were used to repay a portion of the U.S. dollar denominated term loans outstanding under the 2017 Credit Agreement. On March 4, 2019, CBRE Services entered into an additional incremental assumption agreement with respect to the 2017 Credit Agreement (the 2017 Agreement as amended by such incremental assumption agreement, the 2019 Credit Agreement), which (i) extended the maturity of the U.S. dollar tranche A term loans under the 2017 Credit Agreement, (ii) extended the termination date of the revolving credit commitments available under the 2017 Credit Agreement and (iii) made certain changes to the interest rates and fees applicable to such tranche A term loans and revolving credit commitments. The proceeds from the new tranche A term loan facility under the 2019 Credit Agreement were used to repay the $300.0 million of tranche A term loans outstanding under the 2017 Credit Agreement.

The 2019 Credit Agreement is a senior unsecured credit facility that is jointly and severally guaranteed by us and certain of our subsidiaries. As of September 30, 2019, the 2019 Credit Agreement provided for the following: (1) a $2.8 billion incremental revolving credit facility, which includes the capacity to obtain letters of credit and swingline loans and terminates on March 4, 2024; (2) a $300.0 million incremental tranche A term loan facility maturing on March 4, 2024, requiring quarterly principal payments unless our leverage ratio (as defined in the 2019 Credit Agreement) is less than or equal to 2.50 to 1.00 on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding any such payment date and (3) a €400.0 million term loan facility due and payable in full at maturity on December 20, 2023.

In prior years, we also issued 4.875% and 5.25% senior notes that are due in 2026 and 2025, respectively. For additional information on all of our long-term debt, see Note 11 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in Item 8 included in our Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) set forth in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Short-Term Borrowings

We maintain a $2.8 billion revolving credit facility under the 2019 Credit Agreement and warehouse lines of credit with certain third-party lenders. For additional information on all of our short-term borrowings, see Note 11 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in Item 8 included in our Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and Notes 4 and 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) set forth in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Off –Balance Sheet Arrangements

53

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date the statements are made. You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. We assume no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting forward-looking information, except to the extent required by applicable securities laws. If we do update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that we will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements. Additional information concerning these and other risks and uncertainties is contained in our other periodic filings with the SEC.

Investors and others should note that we routinely announce financial and other material information using our investor relations website (https://ir.cbre.com), SEC filings, press releases, public conference calls and webcasts. We use these channels to communicate with our investors and members of the public about our company, our services and other items of interest. Information contained on our website is not part of this Quarterly Report or our other filings with the SEC.

Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The information in this section should be read in connection with the information on market risk related to changes in interest rates and non-U.S. currency exchange rates in Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Our exposure to market risk primarily consists of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations related to our international operations and changes in interest rates on debt obligations. We manage such risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of our debt funding and by using derivative financial instruments. We apply Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” when accounting for derivative financial instruments. In all cases, we view derivative financial instruments as a risk management tool and, accordingly, do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

Exchange Rates

Our foreign operations expose us to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. These fluctuations may impact the value of our cash receipts and payments in terms of our functional (reporting) currency, which is U.S. dollars. See the discussion of international operations, which is included in Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under the caption “Items Affecting Comparability—International Operations” and is incorporated by reference herein.

Interest Rates

We manage our interest expense by using a combination of fixed and variable rate debt. We enter into interest rate swap agreements to attempt to hedge the variability of future interest payments due to changes in interest rates. See discussion of our interest rate swap agreements, which is included in Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under the caption “Liquidity and Capital Resources—Indebtedness—Interest Rate Swap Agreements” and is incorporated by reference herein.

The estimated fair value of our senior term loans was approximately $734.0 million at September 30, 2019. Based on dealers’ quotes, the estimated fair values of our 4.875% senior notes and 5.25% senior notes were $671.7 million and $477.8 million, respectively, at September 30, 2019.

We utilize sensitivity analyses to assess the potential effect on our variable rate debt. If interest rates were to increase 100 basis points on our outstanding variable rate debt at September 30, 2019, the net impact of the additional interest cost would be a decrease of $5.9 million on pre-tax income and a decrease of $5.9 million in cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

54

Item 4. | Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Rule 13a-15 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires that we conduct an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, and we have a disclosure policy in furtherance of the same. This evaluation is designed to ensure that all corporate disclosure is complete and accurate in all material respects. The evaluation is further designed to ensure that all information required to be disclosed in our SEC reports is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures and recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods and in the manner specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer supervise and participate in this evaluation, and they are assisted by our Chief Accounting Officer and other members of our Disclosure Committee. In addition to our Chief Accounting Officer, our Disclosure Committee consists of our General Counsel, our Chief Digital and Technology Officer, our chief communication officer, our corporate controller, our head of Global SOX Assurance, our senior officers of significant business lines and other select employees.

We conducted the required evaluation, and our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined by Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) were effective as of September 30, 2019 to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

No changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 2. | Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceed s

Open market share repurchase activity during the three months ended September 30, 2019 was as follows (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):

Period |  | Total Number of Shares Purchased |  |  | Average Price Paid per Share |  |  | Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs |  |  | Approximate Dollar Value of Shares That May Yet Be Purchased Under the Plans or Programs (1) |
July 1, 2019 - July 31, 2019 |  |  | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  |  | — |  |  |  |  |
August 1, 2019 - August 31, 2019 |  |  | 315,002 |  |  | $ | 50.39 |  |  |  | 315,002 |  |  |  |  |
September 1, 2019 - September 30, 2019 |  |  | 617,971 |  |  | $ | 53.57 |  |  |  | 617,971 |  |  |  |  |
Total |  |  | 932,973 |  |  | $ | 52.50 |  |  |  | 932,973 |  |  | $ | 351,023 |

(1) | On February 28, 2019, our board of directors authorized the company to repurchase up to $300.0 million of our Class A common stock over three years, effective March 11, 2019. In August 2019, our board of directors authorized an additional $100.0 million under our new program, bringing the total authorized amount under the new program to a total of $400.0 million.

During October 2019, we repurchased an additional 1,003,485 shares of our Class A common stock in open market transactions at an average price of $50.85 per share. As of November 6, 2019, we had $300.0 million remaining under our existing authorized repurchase program.

Our repurchase programs do not obligate us to acquire any specific number of shares. Under these programs, shares may be repurchased in privately negotiated and/or open market transactions, including under plans complying with Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act. The timing of any future repurchases and the actual amounts repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the market price of our common stock, general market and economic conditions and other factors.

As permitted by our director compensation policy, one of our non-employee directors elected to receive shares of our Class A common stock as consideration for their service as a director in lieu of cash payments during the three months ended September 30, 2019. Director fees are allocated in quarterly installments, and the non-employee director participating in the “stock in lieu of cash” program was issued 1,937 shares on August 6, 2019 in lieu of $100,000 in accrued director fees. The number of shares issued was based on the closing price on the NYSE of our Class A common stock on the date of issuance. The issuance of these securities qualified for an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act because the issuance did not involve a public offering.
