Restructuring Activities and COVID-19 Update

. Restructuring Activities

and COVID-19 Update

Beginning in March 2020, the onset of the

COVID-19

pandemic resulted in a negative impact on the Company’s business in the second quarter of 2020 due to

shelter-in-place

and

stay-at-home

restrictions (in certain of the Company’s markets) which prohibited or reduced

in-person

residential real estate showings and the related impact on customer demand and housing inventory, as well as deteriorating economic conditions, such as increased unemployment rates. In light of the uncertain and rapidly evolving situation relating to

COVID-19,

the Company took a range of measures to address the uncertainties related to the

COVID-19

pandemic including, but not limited to, reducing the size of its workforce, terminating certain lease obligations and reducing certain discretionary expenses during the first half of 2020. As a result of these cost-saving measures, the Company reduced its workforce by approximately 15%. Although the demand in the Company’s services had recovered starting in the second half of 2020, the duration of the pandemic and any impacts on consumer behavior are unknown, and the amount of that demand which will persist after the reversal of the

stay-at-home

orders is unknown. Additionally, the pandemic’s impacts on the overall economy and credit markets could significantly impact the Company’s estimates of fair value, which could affect the carrying amount of certain assets and liabilities. As of December 31, 2021, the impacts of

the pandemic have not significantly impacted the carrying amount of the Company’s assets and liabilities.

The expenses resulting from these cost-saving measures were included in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020, as follows (in millions):


	December 31, 2020
	Severance		Lease Termination		Total
Sales and marketing	$	1.5	$	4.3	$	5.8
Operations and support		2.9		—		2.9
Research and development		0.7		—		0.7
General and administrative		0.9		—		0.9

Total	$	6.0	$	4.3	$	10.3

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company incurred $1.7 million in facility-related costs associated with the early termination of certain of the Company’s office leases in Sales and marketing in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

The Company did not recognize any restructuring expenses during the year ended December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company did not have any material remaining liabilities related to restructuring costs.
