Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all risk factors and uncertainties, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, the future events and circumstances discussed in this filing may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
1. Business and Basis of Presentation
Description of the Business
Compass, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on October 4, 2012 under the name Urban Compass, Inc. On January 8, 2021, the board of directors approved a change to the Company’s name from Urban Compass, Inc. to Compass, Inc. On April 6, 2021, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) and the Company’s Class A common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on April 1, 2021 under the symbol “COMP”.
The Company provides an end-to-end platform that empowers its residential real estate agents to deliver exceptional service to seller and buyer clients. The Company’s platform includes an integrated suite of cloud-based software for customer relationship management, marketing, client service and other critical functionality, all custom-built for the real estate industry, which enables the Company’s core brokerage services. The platform also uses proprietary data, analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning to deliver high value recommendations and outcomes for Compass agents and their clients.
The Company’s agents are independent contractors who affiliate their real estate licenses with the Company, operating their businesses on the Company’s platform and under the Compass brand. The Company generates revenue from clients through its agents by assisting home sellers and buyers in listing, marketing, selling and finding homes as well as through the provision of services adjacent to the transaction, like title and escrow services, which comprise a smaller portion of the Company’s revenue to date. The Company currently generates substantially all of its revenue from commissions paid by clients at the time that a home is transacted.
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of all controlled subsidiaries. The condensed consolidated statements of operations include the results of entities acquired from the date of each respective acquisition. Interests held by third parties in consolidated subsidiaries are presented as non-controlling interests, which represents the non-controlling stockholders’ interests in the underlying net assets of the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries. For entities where the Company does not have a controlling interest (financial or operating), the investments in such entities are accounted for using the equity method. The Company applies the equity method of accounting when it has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of an investee. The Company measures all other investments at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income or in the case that an equity investment does not have readily determinable fair values, at cost minus impairment (if any) plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment.
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared by management on a basis consistent with the annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the interim periods presented.
The results of the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. Certain information and notes normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted under the SEC’s rules and regulations. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes included herein should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in the 2022 Form 10-K.
Liquidity
Since inception, the Company has primarily generated negative cash flows from operations and has primarily financed operations from net proceeds from the issuance of convertible preferred stock and common stock. In addition, a number of macroeconomic conditions, including rising inflation and rapidly rising mortgage interest rates, have contributed to a
10

Table of Contents
slowdown in the U.S. residential real estate market, which has had an adverse impact on the Company’s business and may continue to adversely impact the Company’s business in the future.
During the year ended December 31, 2022 and the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company enacted various restructuring actions to improve the alignment between the Company’s organizational structure and its long-term business strategy, drive cost efficiencies enabled by the Company’s technology and other competitive advantages and continue to drive toward profitability and positive free cash flow. The Company will continue to assess the impact that changing macroeconomic factors and the slowdown of the U.S. residential real estate market will have on its business and will adjust its operations as necessary.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company held cash and cash equivalents of approximately $335.4 million and $361.9 million, respectively. Additionally, the Company has a Revolving Credit Facility, which it can draw upon provided it maintains continued compliance with certain financial and non-financial covenants. In July 2023, the Company repaid the $150.0 million outstanding as of June 30, 2023 under its Revolving Credit Facility. As a result, the Company has in excess of $300.0 million available to be drawn under the Revolving Credit Facility. Further, the Company is in compliance with each of the financial and non-financial covenants. See Note 5 — "Debt" for further details. The Company believes that it will have sufficient liquidity from cash on hand, its Revolving Credit Facility and future operations to sustain its business operations for the next twelve months and beyond.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods covered by the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These judgments, estimates and assumptions are used for, but not limited to (i) valuation of the Company’s common stock and stock awards, (ii) fair value of acquired intangible assets and goodwill, (iii) fair value of contingent consideration arrangements in connection with business combinations, (iv) incremental borrowing rate used for the Company’s operating leases, (v) useful lives of long-lived assets, (vi) impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, (vii) allowance for Compass Concierge receivables and (viii) income taxes and certain deferred tax assets. The Company determines its estimates and judgments based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results could differ from these estimates and these differences may be material.
Business Combinations
Business combinations are accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. This method requires, among other things, allocation of the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. When determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, management makes estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with a corresponding offset to goodwill if new information is obtained related to facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. After the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Acquisition costs, consisting primarily of third-party legal and consulting fees, are expensed as incurred.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company measures compensation expense for all stock-based awards based on the estimated fair value of the awards on the date of grant. Compensation expense is generally recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the service period based on the vesting requirements. The Company recognizes forfeitures as they occur.
For stock options, which the Company issues to employees, affiliated agents and in certain cases in connection with business combinations, the Company generally estimates the fair value using the Black-Scholes option pricing model,
11

Table of Contents
which requires the input of subjective assumptions, including (1) the fair value of common stock, (2) the expected stock price volatility, (3) the expected term of the award, (4) the risk-free interest rate and (5) expected dividends.
The Company also issues RSUs to employees, affiliated agents and in certain cases in connection with business combinations. In addition to the issuance of RSUs to agents as equity compensation for the provision of services, the Company offered RSUs to affiliated agents through its Agent Equity Program. The Agent Equity Program offered affiliated agents the ability to elect to have a portion of their commissions earned during a calendar year to be paid in the form of RSUs. RSUs issued in connection with the Agent Equity Program were granted at the beginning of the year following the calendar year in which the commissions were earned and are subject to the terms and conditions of the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan and the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, as applicable. The Company discontinued the Agent Equity Program following the issuance of RSUs during the first quarter of 2023 related to the 2022 Agent Equity Program.
The Company's RSUs granted prior to December 2020 generally vest based upon the satisfaction of both a service-based condition and a liquidity event-based condition. The service-based vesting condition for these awards is generally satisfied over four years. The liquidity event-based vesting condition was met on March 31, 2021, the effective date of the Company’s registration statement filed in connection with the IPO, with subsequent expense recognized using the accelerated attribution method.
In December 2020, the Company began issuing RSUs that vest upon the satisfaction of only a service-based vesting condition that generally ranges from one to five years. The fair value of these RSUs is measured based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date and will be recognized as expense on a straight-line basis as the required service-based vesting condition is satisfied. Any vested RSUs that require only a service-based vesting condition will convert to common stock following vesting and their prescribed delayed settlement periods.
For RSUs granted in connection with the 2021 and 2022 Agent Equity Programs, the Company determined the value of the stock-based compensation expense at the time the underlying commission was earned and recognized the associated expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods beginning on the closing date of the underlying real estate commission transactions. The stock-based compensation expense was recorded as a liability throughout the service periods and was reclassified to Additional paid-in capital at the end of the vesting period when the underlying RSUs were issued.
On a limited basis, the Company has issued stock options and RSUs that contain service, performance and market-based vesting conditions that include stock price targets to be met after the listing of the Company's stock on a public exchange. Such awards were valued using a Monte Carlo simulation and the underlying expense will be recognized as the associated vesting conditions are met.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. An update was also issued expanding the scope of this guidance. The guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts or other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The guidance was issued on March 12, 2020 and may be applied prospectively through December 31, 2022. On December 21, 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, R eference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, which deferred the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The Company is evaluating applicable contracts and transactions to determine whether to elect the optional guidance. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. The guidance amends ASC 805 to require acquiring entities to apply Topic 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business combination. The amendment is effective for public companies with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendment should be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2023, and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) - Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures, which requires enhanced disclosure of certain loan refinancings and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty while eliminating certain current recognition and

Table of Contents
measurement accounting guidance. This guidance also requires the disclosure of current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases. The amendments in this guidance are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2023, and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
3. Acquisitions
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the ownership interest in a real estate brokerage. The purpose of this acquisition was to expand the Company’s existing brokerage business in a new key domestic market. The Company has accounted for this acquisition as a business combination.
The consideration for the acquisition completed during the six months ended June 30, 2023 is comprised of contingent consideration payable in the Company's Class A common stock and cash at various payment dates through 2033 dependent on the future performance of the acquired business. At the time of acquisition, the purchase price was estimated to be $8.8 million and was calculated at net present value using a variety of inputs and assumptions, the most significant of which were the forecasted future results of the acquired business. Payments in excess of the original estimate may impact the Company's statement of operations in future periods. The future consideration amounts were recorded as Accrued expenses and other current liabilities and Other non-current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
The fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed primarily resulted in the recognition of: $3.1 million of customer relationships; $1.5 million of other current and non-current assets; and $1.1 million of other current and non-current liabilities. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the acquired net assets was recorded as goodwill of $5.3 million. The acquired customer relationship is being amortized over the estimated useful life of approximately 5 years.
None of the goodwill recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2023 is deductible for tax purposes. The amount of tax-deductible goodwill may increase in the future to approximately $5.3 million dependent on the payment of certain contingent consideration arrangements. These amounts are not expected to have an impact on the income tax provision while the Company maintains a full valuation allowance on its U.S. deferred tax assets.
The Company has recorded the preliminary purchase price allocation as of the acquisition date and expects to finalize its analysis within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date) of the respective transaction. Any adjustments during the measurement period would have a corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to the consolidated statements of operations.
Pro forma revenue and earnings for this acquisition have not been presented because the acquisition is not material to the Company’s consolidated revenue and results of operations.
Contingent Consideration
Contingent consideration represents obligations of the Company to transfer cash and common stock to the sellers of certain acquired businesses in the event that certain targets and milestones are met. Approximately $3.1 million of the obligations as of June 30, 2023 are fixed in value. As of June 30, 2023, the undiscounted estimated payment under these arrangements was $29.1 million. Changes in contingent consideration measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows (in millions):

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
| 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2023 |  | 2022
Opening balance | $ | 18.2 |  |  | $ | 22.8 |  |  | $ | 14.0 |  |  | $ | 24.4 |
Acquisitions | — |  |  | 3.6 |  |  | 8.8 |  |  | 3.6 |
Payments | (1.2) |  |  | (4.0) |  |  | (5.8) |  |  | (6.0) |

Other Acquisition-Related Arrangements
In connection with the Company’s acquisitions, certain amounts paid or to be paid to selling shareholders are subject to clawback and forfeiture dependent on certain employees and agents providing continued service to the Company. These retention-based payments are accounted for as compensation for future services and the Company recognizes the expenses over the service period. As of June 30, 2023, the Company expects to pay up to an additional $2.0 million in future compensation to such selling shareholders in connection with these arrangements. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized income of $1.1 million and expense of $3.7 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized expense of $2.0 million and $11.4 million, respectively, within Operations and support in the condensed consolidated statements of operations related to these arrangements.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, certain acquisition-related compensation arrangements and holdbacks were settled in the form of Class A common stock. In connection with these settlements, the Company issued 2.6 million shares of Class A common stock.
4. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents of $335.4 million and $361.9 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, are held in cash and money market funds, which are classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted prices in active markets. These are the Company’s only Level 1 financial instruments. The Company does not hold any Level 2 financial instruments. The Company’s contingent consideration liabilities of $17.6 million and $14.0 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, are the Company’s only Level 3 financial instruments.
See Note 3 – “Acquisitions” for changes in contingent consideration for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The following table presents the balances of contingent consideration as presented in the condensed consolidated balance sheets (in millions):

| June 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities | $ | 7.3 |  |  | $ | 10.0 |
Other non-current liabilities | 10.3 |  |  | 4.0 |
Total contingent consideration | $ | 17.6 |  |  | $ | 14.0 |

There were no transfers of financial instruments between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 during the periods presented.
Level 3 Financial Liabilities
The Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities relate to acquisition-related contingent consideration arrangements. Contingent consideration represents obligations of the Company to transfer cash or the Company's common stock to the sellers of certain acquired entities in the event that certain targets and milestones are met. The Company estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration using a variety of inputs, the most significant of which were the forecasted future results of the acquired businesses, not observable in the market. The impact of changes in these assumptions is not expected to result in material changes to the fair value of the Level 3 financial liabilities. Changes in the fair value of Level 3 financial liabilities are included within Operations and support in the condensed consolidated statements of operations (see Note 3 – “Acquisitions”).
5. Debt
Concierge Credit Facility
In July 2020, the Company entered into a Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the “Concierge Facility”) with Barclays Bank PLC, as administrative agent, and the several lenders party thereto, which was subsequently amended on July 29, 2021, August 5, 2022 and August 4, 2023. The Concierge Facility provides for a $75.0 million revolving credit facility and is solely used to finance, in part, the Company’s Compass Concierge Program. The Concierge Facility is secured primarily by the Concierge Receivables and cash of the Compass Concierge Program.
Borrowings under the Concierge Facility bear interest at the term SOFR rate plus a margin of 2.75%. The two year commitment fee is 0.35% if the Concierge Facility is utilized greater than 50% and 0.50%, if the Concierge Facility is utilized less than 50%. On August 4, 2023, the revolving period under the Concierge Facility was extended to August 3,
14

Table of Contents
2025. The interest rate on the Concierge Facility was 8.30% as of June 30, 2023. Pursuant to the Concierge Facility, the principal amount, if any, is payable in full in January 2026, unless earlier terminated or extended.
The Company has the option to repay the borrowings under the Concierge Facility without premium or penalty prior to maturity. The Concierge Facility contains customary affirmative covenants, such as financial statement reporting requirements, as well as covenants that restrict the Company's ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, sell certain receivables, declare dividends or make certain distributions, and undergo a merger or consolidation or certain other transactions. Additionally, in the event that the Company fails to comply with certain financial covenants that require the Company to meet certain liquidity-based measures, the commitments under the Concierge Facility will automatically be reduced to zero and the Company will be required to repay any outstanding loans under the Concierge Facility. As of June 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under the Concierge Facility.
The Concierge Facility includes customary events of default that include, among other things, nonpayment of principal, interest or fees, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, violation of certain covenants, bankruptcy and insolvency events, material judgments and change of control. The occurrence of an event of default could result in the acceleration of the obligations and/or the increase in the applicable interest rate under the Concierge Facility.
Revolving Credit Facility
In March 2021, the Company entered into a Revolving Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) with Barclays Bank PLC, as administrative agent and as collateral agent (the "Administrative Agent"), and certain other lenders, which was subsequently amended on May 1, 2023. The Revolving Credit Facility provides for a $350.0 million revolving credit facility, subject to the terms and conditions of the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility also includes a letter of credit sublimit, which is the lesser of (i) $125.0 million and (ii) the aggregate unused amount of the revolving commitments then in effect under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company’s obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries and are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Company’s subsidiary guarantors.
Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, at either (i) a floating rate per annum equal to the base rate plus a margin of 0.50% or (ii) a rate per annum equal to the secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") plus a margin of 1.50%. The base rate is equal to the highest of (a) the prime rate as quoted by The Wall Street Journal, (b) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, (c) the SOFR term rate for a one-month interest period plus 1.00% and (d) 1.00%. The SOFR term rate is determined by the Administrative Agent as the forward-looking term rate plus a 0.10% adjustment. During an event of default under the Revolving Credit Facility, the applicable interest rates are increased by 2.0% per annum. The interest rate on the Revolving Credit Facility was 8.43% as of June 30, 2023.
The Company is also obligated to pay other customary fees for a credit facility of this type, including a commitment fee on a quarterly basis based on amounts committed but unused under the Revolving Credit Facility of 0.175% per annum, fees associated with letters of credit and administrative and arrangement fees. The principal amount, if any, is payable in full in March 2026, unless earlier terminated or extended.
The Company has the option to repay the Company’s borrowings, and to permanently reduce the loan commitments in whole or in part, under the Revolving Credit Facility without premium or penalty prior to maturity. As of June 30, 2023, there were $150.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility and outstanding letters of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility totaled approximately $41.6 million. In July 2023, the Company repaid $150.0 million in borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.
The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary representations, warranties, financial covenants applicable to the Company and its restricted subsidiaries, affirmative covenants, such as financial statement reporting requirements, and negative covenants which restrict their ability, among other things, to incur liens and indebtedness, make certain investments, declare dividends, dispose of, transfer or sell assets, make stock repurchases and consummate certain other matters, all subject to certain exceptions. The financial covenants require that (i) the Company maintains liquidity of at least $150.0 million as of the last day of each fiscal quarter and each date of a credit extension and (ii) the Company’s consolidated total revenue as of the last day of each fiscal quarter be equal to or greater than the specified amount corresponding to such period. The minimum required consolidated revenue threshold for the trailing four fiscal quarters is $3,799.0 million during 2023 and $4,668.0 million thereafter. As of June 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants under the Revolving Credit Facility.

The Revolving Credit Facility includes customary events of default that include, among other things, nonpayment of principal, interest or fees, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, violation of certain covenants, cross default to certain other indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, material judgments, change of control and certain material ERISA events. The occurrence of an event of default could result in the acceleration of the obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility.
6. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings
From time to time, the Company may be involved in disputes or regulatory inquiries that arise in the ordinary course of business. When the Company determines that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable, a liability is recorded and disclosed if the amount is material to the Company’s business, taken as a whole. When a material loss contingency is only reasonably possible, the Company does not record a liability, but instead discloses the nature and the amount of the claim and an estimate of the loss or range of loss, if such an estimate can reasonably be made. Legal costs related to the defense of loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.
Claims or regulatory actions against the Company, whether meritorious or not, could have an adverse impact on the Company due to legal costs, diversion of management resources and other elements. The Company does not believe that the outcome of any individual existing legal or regulatory proceeding to which it is a party will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial condition or overall business in each case, taken as a whole.
Letter of Credit Agreements
The Company has irrevocable letters of credit with various financial institutions, primarily related to security deposits for leased facilities. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company was contingently liable for $53.2 million and $48.0 million, respectively, under these letters of credit. As of June 30, 2023, $41.6 million and $11.6 million of these letters of credit were collateralized by the Revolving Credit Facility and cash and cash equivalents, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, $33.0 million and $15.0 million of these letters of credit were collateralized by the Revolving Credit Facility and cash and cash equivalents, respectively.
Escrow and Trust Deposits
As a service to its home buyers and sellers, the Company administers escrow and trust deposits, which represent undistributed amounts for the settlement of real estate transactions. The escrow and trust deposits totaled $252.5 million and $136.7 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. These deposits are not assets of the Company and therefore are excluded from the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. However, the Company remains contingently liable for the disposition of these deposits.
7. Preferred Stock and Common Stock
Undesignated Preferred Stock
In April 2021, the Company adopted a restated certificate of incorporation, which authorizes the Company to issue up to 25.0 million shares of undesignated preferred stock with a $0.00001 par value per share. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there are no shares of the Company’s preferred stock issued and outstanding.
Common Stock
In February 2021, the Company approved the establishment of Class C common stock and an agreement with the Company’s CEO to exchange his Class A common stock for Class C common stock. On March 31, 2021, in connection with the effectiveness of the registration statement for the Company’s IPO, 15.2 million shares of Class A common stock held by the Company’s CEO were automatically exchanged for an equivalent number of shares of Class C common stock. In addition, any Class A common stock issued to the Company’s CEO from RSU awards granted prior to February 2021 are able to be exchanged for Class C common stock. Each share of Class C common stock is entitled to twenty votes per share and will be convertible at any time into one share of Class A common stock and will automatically convert into Class A common stock under certain “sunset” provisions. Other than certain permitted transfers for estate planning purposes, upon a transfer of Class C common stock, the Class C common stock will automatically convert into Class A common stock.

8. Stock-Based Compensation
2012 Stock Incentive Plan
In October 2012, the Company adopted the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”). Under the 2012 Plan, employees and non-employees could be granted stock options, RSUs and other stock-based awards, including awards earned in connection with the Agent Equity Program. Generally, these awards were based on stock agreements with a maximum ten-year term for stock options and a maximum seven-year term for RSUs, subject to board approval.
2021 Equity Incentive Plan
In February 2021, the Company’s board of directors and stockholders adopted and approved the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”), with an initial pool of 29.7 million shares of common stock available for granting stock-based awards plus any reserved shares of common stock not issued or subject to outstanding awards granted under the 2012 Plan. In addition, on January 1 st of each year beginning in 2022 and continuing through 2031, the aggregate number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the 2021 Plan shall be increased automatically by the number of shares equal to 5% of the total number of outstanding shares of common stock and outstanding shares of preferred stock (on an as converted to common stock basis) on the immediately preceding December 31 st, although the Company’s board of directors or one of its committees may reduce the amount of such increase in any particular year. The 2021 Plan became effective on March 30, 2021 and as of that date, the Company ceased granting new awards under the 2012 Plan and all remaining shares available under the 2012 Plan were transferred to the 2021 Plan.

2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
In February 2021, the Company’s board of directors and stockholders adopted and approved the 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), which authorized purchase rights to the Company’s employees or to employees of its designated affiliates. In addition, on January 1 st of each year beginning in 2022 and continuing through 2031, the aggregate number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the ESPP shall be increased automatically by the number of shares equal to 1% of the total number of outstanding shares of common stock and outstanding shares of preferred stock (on an as converted to common stock basis) on the immediately preceding December 31 st, although the Company’s board of directors or one of its committees may reduce the amount of the increase in any particular year. No more than 150.0 million shares of common stock may be issued over the term of the ESPP, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the ESPP. Effective January 1, 2023, the authorized shares increased by 4.2 million shares as a result of the annual increase provision described above. As of June 30, 2023, 14.5 million shares of Class A common stock remain available for grant under the ESPP.
The ESPP permits employees to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A common stock through payroll deductions accumulated during six-month offering periods up to a maximum value of $12,500 per offering period. The offering periods begin each February and August, or such other period determined by the Compensation Committee. On each purchase date, eligible employees may purchase the shares at a price per share equal to 85% of the lesser of (1) the fair market value of the Company’s Class A common stock on the first trading day of the offering period, or (2) the fair market value of the Company’s Class A common stock on the purchase date, as defined in the ESPP. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company issued 0.4 million shares of Class A common stock under the ESPP.
The Company recognized $0.4 million and $0.7 million of stock-based compensation expense related to the ESPP during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and $0.6 million and $1.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

10. Net Loss Per Share Attributable to Compass, Inc.
The Company computes net loss per share under the two-class method required for multiple classes of common stock and participating securities. The rights, including the liquidation and dividend rights, of the Class A common stock, Class B common stock and Class C common stock are substantially identical, other than voting rights. Accordingly, the net loss per share attributable to Compass, Inc. will be the same for Class A common stock, Class B common stock and Class C common stock on an individual or combined basis.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to Compass, Inc. (in millions, except share and per share amounts):

11. Compass Concierge Receivables and Allowance for Credit Losses
In 2018, the Company launched the Compass Concierge Program for home sellers who have engaged Compass as their exclusive listing agent. The initial program was based on a services model (“Concierge Classic”) provided by Compass Concierge, LLC (“Compass Concierge”), which included items such as consultation on suggested cosmetic updates or modifications to a specific property or guidance on securing licensed contractors or vendors to perform non-structural property improvements. The Concierge Classic program provided for the payment of the up-front costs of specified home improvement services provided by unrelated vendors. During 2022, the Company substantially ceased providing new payments under the Concierge Classic program.
In 2019, the Compass Concierge Program was expanded to include a loan program underwritten by an independent third-party lender (the “Lender”) through a commercial arrangement with Compass Concierge (“Concierge Capital”). Under the Concierge Capital program, the Lender originates and services unsecured consumer loans to home sellers following its independent underwriting process pursuant to program-level criteria provided by the Company. Pursuant to the Company’s agreement with the Lender, the consumer loans are unsecured, interest-free and have no associated fees except for late fees that the Lender may charge in its sole discretion. The Company has no right or obligation with respect to any individual consumer loan originated by the Lender. Under the agreement, the Company has repayment rights against the Lender in connection with a corporate loan.
Payment to the Company for these services under the Concierge Classic program or repayment of the loan funds under the Concierge Capital program is due upon the earlier of a successful home sale, the termination of the listing agreement or one year from the date in which costs were originally funded. Compass Concierge receivables (“Concierge Receivables”) are stated at the amount advanced to the home sellers, net of an estimated allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not recognize any revenue or earn any fees from the Compass Concierge Program. The Company incurs service fees payable to the Lender and incurs bad debt expense in connection with the Compass Concierge Program.
The Company manages its credit risk by establishing a comprehensive credit policy for the approval of new loans while monitoring and reviewing the performance of its existing Concierge Receivables. Factors considered include but are not limited to:
•No negative liens or judgements on the property;
•Seller’s available equity on the property;
•Loan to listing price ratio;
•FICO score (only for Concierge Capital program); and
•Macroeconomic conditions.
Credit Quality
The Company monitors credit quality by evaluating various attributes and utilizes such information in its evaluation of the appropriateness of the ACL. Based on the Company’s experience, the key credit quality indicator is whether the underlying properties associated with the Concierge Receivables will be sold or not. Concierge Receivables associated with properties that are eventually sold have a lower credit risk than those that are associated with properties that are not sold. As of
21

Table of Contents
June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the amount of outstanding Concierge Receivables related to unsold properties was approximately 96% and 98%, respectively. For Concierge Receivables where repayments have not been triggered (i.e., earlier of (i) sale of the property, (ii) termination of a listing agreement or (iii) 12 months from the date costs were originally funded), the Company establishes an estimate as to the percentage of underlying properties that will be sold based on historical data. This estimate is updated as of the end of each reporting period.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company maintains an ACL for the expected credit losses over the contractual life of the Concierge Receivables. The amount of ACL is based on ongoing, quarterly assessments by management. Historical loss experience is generally the starting point when the Company estimates the expected credit losses. The Company then considers whether (i) current conditions and economic conditions, (ii) future economic conditions and (iii) any potential changes in the Compass Concierge Program that are reasonable and supportable would impact its ACL. The following table summarizes the activity of the ACL for Concierge Receivables for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 (in millions):

| Three Months Ended June 30, 2023 |  | Six Months Ended June 30, 2023
Beginning of period | $ | 14.2 |  |  | $ | 14.7 |
Allowances | 0.3 |  |  | 0.5 |
Net write-offs and other | (0.3) |  |  | (1.0) |
End of period | $ | 14.2 |  |  | $ | 14.2 |

Aging Status
The Company generally considers Concierge Receivables to be past due after being outstanding for over 30 days after the initial billing. Changes in the Company’s estimate to the ACL are recorded through bad debt expense as Sales and marketing expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and individual accounts are charged against the allowance when all reasonable collection efforts are exhausted. The following table presents the aging analysis of Concierge Receivables as of June 30, 2023 (in millions):

| June 30, 2023
Current | $ | 41.7 |
31-90 days past due | 3.2 |
Over 90 days past due | 5.7 |
Total | $ | 50.6 |

12. Restructuring Activities
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company enacted certain workforce reductions, wound down Modus and terminated certain of its operating leases. The workforce reductions were part of a broader plan by the Company to take meaningful actions to improve the alignment between the Company’s organizational structure and its long-term business strategy, drive cost efficiencies enabled by the Company’s technology and other competitive advantages and continue to drive toward profitability and positive free cash flow. In addition to the workforce reductions, restructuring actions have included and are expected to include, but not be limited to, a reduction in U.S. hiring and backfills resulting from attrition; a reduction in spend through third-party vendors; eliminating the use of incentives when recruiting new agents and reducing incentives for existing agents; a planned slow down in M&A activity and new market expansion; and a review of occupancy costs with a view to consolidating offices and reducing related costs.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company implemented a further workforce reduction. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company took actions to reduce its occupancy costs, the most significant being the scaling down of its New York administrative office. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred restructuring costs of $15.9 million and $26.0 million, respectively, in connection with these actions. These costs are a result of severance and other termination benefits for employees whose roles were eliminated and lease termination costs as a result of the accelerated amortization of various right-of-use assets and other lease-related costs. These expenses have been presented within the Restructuring costs line in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company incurred additional non-cash charges of approximately $1.4 million and $5.3 million for the three and six months

INTRODUCTION
Our Company
Compass, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on October 4, 2012 under the name Urban Compass, Inc. On January 8, 2021, the board of directors of the Company approved a change to the Company’s name from Urban Compass, Inc. to Compass, Inc.
Our Business and Business Model
We are a residential real estate brokerage that provides an end-to-end platform of software, services and support to empower our residential real estate agents to deliver exceptional service to seller and buyer clients. Real estate agents are themselves business owners, and Compass agents utilize the platform to grow their respective businesses, save time and manage their business more effectively. Our platform includes an integrated suite of cloud-based software for customer relationship management, marketing, client service, brokerage services and other critical functionalities, all custom-built for the real estate industry and enabling our core brokerage services. Our platform also uses proprietary data, analytics, artificial intelligence and machine learning to deliver high value recommendations and outcomes for Compass agents and their clients.

Table of Contents
Our business model is directly aligned with the success of our agents. We attract agents to our brokerage and partner with them as independent contractors that affiliate their real estate licenses with us, operating their businesses on our platform and under our brand. We currently generate substantially all of our revenue from commissions paid to us by our agents' clients at the time that a home is transacted on our platform, which agents use to assist home sellers and buyers in listing, marketing, selling and finding homes as well as through the provision of services adjacent to the transaction, such as title, escrow and mortgage. While adjacent services comprise a small portion of our revenue to date, we believe we are well-positioned to capture meaningful revenue from adjacent services as we continue to diversify our offerings within the real estate ecosystem.
Update Related to the Restructuring Activities
During the year ended December 31, 2022, we enacted certain workforce reductions, wound down Modus and terminated certain of our operating leases. The workforce reductions were part of a broader plan by us to take meaningful actions to improve the alignment between our organizational structure and long-term business strategy, drive cost efficiencies enabled by our technology and other competitive advantages and continue to drive toward profitability and positive free cash flow. In addition to the aforementioned workforce reductions, restructuring actions have included and are expected to include, but not be limited to, a reduction in U.S. hiring and backfills resulting from attrition; a reduction in spend through third-party vendors; eliminating the use of incentives when recruiting new agents and reducing incentives for existing agents; a planned slow down in M&A activity and new market expansion; and a review of occupancy costs with a view to consolidating offices and reducing related costs.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we implemented a further workforce reduction. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we took actions to reduce our occupancy costs, the most significant being the scaling down of our New York administrative office. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we incurred restructuring costs of $15.9 million and $26.0 million, respectively, in connection with these actions. These costs are a result of severance and other termination benefits for employees whose roles are being eliminated and lease termination costs as a result of the accelerated amortization of various right-of-use assets and other lease-related costs. These expenses have been presented within the Restructuring costs line in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. We incurred additional non-cash charges of approximately $1.4 million and $5.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, associated with the write-down of fixed assets for certain real estate leases that have been exited, or partially exited. These costs have been included within the Depreciation and amortization line in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Operational Highlights for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2023
We continue to attract and retain the most talented agents to our platform, which is critical to our long-term success. We grow our revenue by attracting high-performing agents looking to grow their business and increasing the productivity of our agents. While we are not investing in technology at the same rate as in the past, we continue to invest in our proprietary, integrated platform designed for real estate agents, to enable them to grow their business and save them time and money. This value proposition allows us to recruit more agents, help them grow their business and retain them on our platform at industry leading retention rates.
We had over 28,000 agents on our platform as of June 30, 2023. A subset of our agents are considered principal agents, which we define as either agents who are leaders of their respective agent teams or individual agents operating independently on our platform.
For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Average Number of Principal Agents 1 was 13,633, an increase of 429, or 3.2%, from the three months ended June 30, 2022. The principal agent additions came in both new and existing markets.
During the three months ended June 30, 2023, our agents closed 54,207 Total Transactions, a decrease of 18.9% when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decline was primarily driven by the macroeconomic conditions that contributed to the slowdown in the U.S. residential real estate market. See the section entitled “Impact of the Macroeconomic Conditions on the U.S. Residential Real Estate Market and Our Business” for more details surrounding these macroeconomic conditions.
1 During the first quarter of 2023, the Company began to utilize an updated methodology for tracking and reporting its agent statistics. The Company's Average Number of Principal Agents and year over year growth reported in this Form 10-Q is based on the updated methodology.

Table of Contents
Our Gross Transaction Value for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $56.8 billion, a decrease of 26.0% when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. Gross Transaction Value is primarily driven by home values in the markets we serve and by changes in the number of our agents in those markets, as well as seasonality and the aforementioned macroeconomic factors.
For the three months ended June 30, 2023, our Gross Transaction Value represented 4.6% of residential real estate transacted in the U.S., compared to 4.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The second quarter's market share represents a 13 basis point increase sequentially from the three months ended March 31, 2023. We calculate our national market share by dividing our Gross Transaction Value, or the total dollar value of transactions closed by agents on our platform, by two times (to account for the sell-side and buy-side of each transaction) the aggregate dollar value of U.S. existing home sales as reported by the National Association of Realtors ("NAR"). Gross Transaction Value includes a de minimis number of new development and commercial brokerage transactions.
For the definitions of Average Number of Principal Agents, Total Transactions and Gross Transaction Value please refer to the section entitled “Key Business Metrics” included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
Seasonality and Cyclicality
The residential real estate market is seasonal, which directly impacts our agents’ businesses. While individual markets may vary, transaction volume is typically highest in spring and summer, and then declines gradually in late fall and winter. We experience the most significant financial effect from this seasonality in the first and fourth quarters of each year, when our revenue is typically lower relative to the second and third quarters. The effect of this seasonality on our revenue has a larger effect on our results of operations as many of our operating expenses (excluding commissions) are somewhat fixed in nature and do not vary directly in line with our revenue. We believe that this seasonality has affected and will continue to affect our quarterly results; however, to date its effect may have been masked by our rapid growth during the year ended December 31, 2021 and the impact of changes in macroeconomic conditions experienced during the year ended December 31, 2022 and the six months ended June 30, 2023.
The broader residential real estate industry is cyclical, and individual markets can have their own dynamics that diverge from broad market conditions. The real estate industry can be impacted by the strength or weakness of the economy, changes in interest rates or mortgage lending standards, or extreme economic or political conditions. Our revenue growth rate tends to increase as the real estate industry performs well and to decrease when the real estate industry performs poorly.
Impact of the Macroeconomic Conditions on the U.S. Residential Real Estate Market and Our Business
Throughout 2022 and through the second quarter of 2023, a number of macroeconomic conditions contributed to the slowdown in the U.S. residential real estate market, impacting our business and financial results during the year ended December 31, 2022 and the six months ended June 30, 2023. These conditions include, but are not limited to, the conflict in Ukraine, volatility in the U.S. equity markets, rising inflation, rapidly rising mortgage interest rates, and the Federal Reserve Board increasing the federal funds rate by an aggregate of 5.25% through July 2023 with possible further increases throughout the year. These conditions have contributed toward slowed consumer demand and declining home affordability and began to have an impact on price appreciation. Any further slowdown or additional challenging conditions in the U.S. residential real estate market could have a significant impact on our business and financial results in the third quarter of 2023 and beyond. While we continue to assess the effects of the current slowdown on our business and financial results, the ultimate impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and difficult to predict, as well as the actions that we have taken, or will take, to minimize any current and future impact.

Revenue was $1,494.0 million and $2,451.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, a decrease of $526.1 million, or 26.0%, and $965.9 million, or 28.3%, compared to the prior year periods, respectively. The decrease for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily driven by the macroeconomic conditions that contributed to the current slowdown in the U.S. residential real estate market, a lower volume of transactions and a decline in average transaction value, partially offset by an increase in the number of agents that joined our platform during 2022 and 2023. The Average Number of Principal Agents 2 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 grew to 13,633 and 13,574, an increase of 3.2% and 4.4% from the year ago periods.

Commissions and other related expense was $1,224.0 million and $2,014.9 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, a decrease of $428.9 million, or 25.9%, and $784.4 million, or 28.0%, compared to the prior year periods, respectively. Included in Commissions and other related expense were non-cash expenses related to stock-based compensation of $11.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and $6.4 million and $23.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The decline in stock-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 when compared to the prior year periods was due the discontinuation of the Agent Equity Program in 2023. Commissions and other related expense excluding such non-cash stock-based compensation expense was $1,224.0 million, or 81.9% of revenue, and $2,003.3 million, or 81.7% of revenue, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $1,646.5 million, or 81.5% of revenue, and $2,775.9 million, or 81.2% of revenue, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The decrease in absolute dollars of Commission and other related expense, excluding non-cash stock-based compensation, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 when compared to the prior year periods was primarily driven by the macroeconomic conditions that contributed to the slowdown in the U.S. residential real estate market. The unfavorable increase in Commissions and other related expense, excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expense, expressed as a percentage of revenue in the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, was due to there being no Agent Equity Program contributions in the current year periods as the Agent Equity Program was discontinued for 2023. Excluding the impact of $16.3 million and $28.1 million in Agent Equity Program contributions made during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, Commissions and other related expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 improved by 38 and 33 basis points, respectively, when compared to the year ago periods.
2 During the first quarter of 2023, the Company began to utilize an updated methodology for tracking and reporting its agent statistics. The Company's Average Number of Principal Agents and year over year growth reported in this Form 10-Q is based on the updated methodology.

Sales and marketing expense was $113.3 million and $228.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, a decrease of $41.6 million, or 26.9%, and $71.3 million, or 23.8%, compared to the prior year periods, respectively. Included in Sales and marketing expense were non-cash expenses related to stock-based compensation of $9.0 million and $17.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $11.2 million and $21.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The decrease in stock-based compensation expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was due to lower headcount resulting from the aforementioned workforce reductions. Sales and marketing expense, excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expense, was $104.3 million, or 7.0% of revenue, and $211.0 million, or 8.6% of revenue, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $143.7 million, or 7.1% of revenue, and $278.0 million, or 8.1% of revenue, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The decrease in absolute dollars, excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expense, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to a decrease in compensation and other personnel-related costs due to decreased headcount. Sales and marketing expense, excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expense, expressed as a percentage of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 was relatively flat. The unfavorable increase in Sales and marketing expense, excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expense, expressed as a percentage of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily driven by a decrease in revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the year ago period.

Operations and support expense was $83.0 million and $164.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, a decrease of $21.9 million, or 20.9%, and $49.7 million, or 23.2%, compared to the prior year periods, respectively. Included in Operations and support expense were non-cash expenses related to stock-based compensation of $4.1 million and $7.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $4.1 million and $8.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The decrease in stock-based compensation expense during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 was due to lower headcount resulting from the aforementioned workforce reductions. Operations and support expense, excluding such non-cash stock-based compensation expense, was $78.9 million, or 5.3% of revenue, and $157.0 million, or 6.4% of revenue, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $100.8 million, or 5.0% of revenue, and $205.4 million, or 6.0% of revenue, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The decrease in absolute dollars, excluding such non-cash stock-based compensation expense, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily driven by a decrease in compensation and other personnel-related costs due to decreased headcount. The increase in Operations and support expense, excluding such non-cash stock-based compensation expense, as a percentage of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily driven by a decrease in revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the year ago periods.

Percentage of revenue | 1.5 | % |  | 1.3 | % |  |  |  |  |  | 1.9 | % |  | 1.3 | % |  |  |  |

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $3.1 million, or 12.2%, for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 and increased $3.1 million, or 7.0%, for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily driven by $5.3 million related to acceleration of depreciation for fixed assets, including leasehold improvements, furniture and fixtures related to office leases we have exited during the period. See Note 12 - "Restructuring Activities" in our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, for more information.

Interest expense was $4.1 million and $7.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by the interest expense incurred on both our Concierge Facility and Revolving Credit Facility as a result of higher balances outstanding on these credit facilities and higher average interest rates on our debt facilities.

Key Business Metrics
Total Transactions
Total Transactions is a key measure of the scale of our platform, which drives our financial performance. We define Total Transactions as the sum of all transactions closed on our platform in which our agent represented the buyer or seller in the purchase or sale of a home. We include a single transaction twice when one or more of our agents represent both the buyer and seller in any given transaction. This metric excludes rental transactions.
32

Table of Contents
Our Total Transactions for the three months ended June 30, 2023 declined to 54,207, or 18.9%, and declined as well for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to 90,093, or 21.1%, from the year ago periods. The declines for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were primarily driven by the macroeconomic conditions that contributed to the slowdown in the U.S. residential real estate market.
Gross Transaction Value
Gross Transaction Value is a key measure of the scale of our platform and success of our agents, which ultimately impacts revenue. Gross Transaction Value is the sum of all closing sale prices for homes transacted by agents on our platform. We include the value of a single transaction twice when our agents serve both the home buyer and home seller in the transaction. This metric excludes rental transactions.
Gross Transaction Value is primarily driven by home values in the markets we serve and by changes in the number of our agents in those markets, as well as seasonality and macroeconomic factors.
Our Gross Transaction Value for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $56.8 billion and $93.4 billion, representing decreases of 26.0% and 28.4% from the year ago periods, respectively. The declines for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were primarily driven by the macroeconomic conditions that contributed to the slowdown in the U.S. residential real estate market.
Average Number of Principal Agents
The Average Number of Principal Agents represents the number of agents who are leaders of their respective agent teams or individual agents operating independently on our platform during a given period. The Average Number of Principal Agents is an indicator of the potential future growth of our business, as well as the size and strength of our platform. This figure is calculated by taking the average of the number of principal agents at the end of each month included in the period. We use the Average Number of Principal Agents, in combination with our other key metrics such as Total Transactions and Gross Transaction Value, as a measure of agent productivity.
Our Average Number of Principal Agents for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was 13,633 and 13,574, representing an increase of 3.2% and 4.4% from the year ago periods, respectively. During the first quarter of 2023, we began to utilize an updated methodology for tracking and reporting our agent statistics. Our Average Number of Principal Agents reported in this Quarterly Report is based on the updated methodology. Our principal agents generate revenue across a diverse set of real estate markets in the U.S.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents our Net loss attributable to Compass, Inc. adjusted for depreciation and amortization, investment income, net, interest expense, stock-based compensation expense, income tax (expense) benefit and other items. During the periods presented, other items included (i) restructuring charges associated with lease termination and severance costs and (ii) acquisition-related expenses related to adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration and other forms of acquisition consideration. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by revenue.
We use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin in conjunction with GAAP measures as part of our overall assessment of our performance, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and quarterly forecasts, to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies and to communicate with our board of directors concerning our financial performance. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are also helpful to investors, analysts and other interested parties because these measures can assist in providing a more consistent and comparable overview of our operations across our historical financial periods. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin have limitations as analytical tools, however, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because of these limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin alongside other financial performance measures, including Net loss attributable to Compass, Inc. and our other GAAP results. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by the types of items excluded from the calculation of Adjusted

Adjusted EBITDA was income of $30.1 million and $4.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $37.0 million and $92.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily a result of the impact of our workforce reductions and cost reduction initiatives outpacing the impact of a slow down in revenue resulting from the current macroeconomic conditions impacting the U.S. residential real estate market as described in more detail under the section entitled “Impact of the Macroeconomic Conditions on the U.S. Residential Real Estate Market and Our Business”.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Since inception, we have primarily generated negative cash flows from operations and have primarily financed our operations from net proceeds from the sale of convertible preferred stock and common stock. As of June 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $335.4 million and an accumulated deficit of $2.4 billion.
We expect that operating losses and negative cash flows from operations may continue in certain periods in the foreseeable future as a result of the current slowdown in the U.S. residential real estate market as described in more detail under the section entitled “—Impact of the Macroeconomic Conditions on the U.S. Residential Real Estate Market and Our Business”. We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents, the Concierge Facility (which, as disclosed in the footnotes to the condensed consolidated financial statements, may be used to support our Compass Concierge Program) and the Revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditures needs for at least the next 12 months and beyond.
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to, growth in the number of our agents and the associated costs to attract, support and retain them, our decision to resume expansion into new geographic markets, continued investment in adjacent services and other new revenue streams, future acquisitions, the timing of investments in technology and personnel to support the overall growth in our business and the extent and duration of the current and any future slowdown in the U.S. residential real estate market. To the extent that current and anticipated future sources of liquidity are insufficient to fund our future business activities and requirements, we may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. The sale of additional equity would result in additional dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of debt financing would result in debt service obligations and the instruments governing such debt could provide for operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations. There can be no assurances that we will be able to raise additional capital. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, we may not be able to negotiate terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We administer escrow and trust deposits which represent undistributed amounts for the settlement of real estate transactions. We are contingently liable for these escrow and trust deposits totaling $252.5 million and $136.7 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. We did not have any other off-balance sheet arrangements as of or during the periods presented.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND POLICIES
Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies
Our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates and therefore, if material, our future financial statements will be affected.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in our 2022 Form 10-K. For additional information about our critical accounting policies and estimates, see the disclosure included in our 2022 Form 10-K, as well as Note 1 and Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1, of this Quarterly Report.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
For a description of our recently adopted accounting pronouncements and accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted, see Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position because of adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily a result of exposure resulting from potential changes in interest rates or inflation.
Interest Rate Risk
Our cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2023 was $335.4 million. Certain of our cash and cash equivalents are interest-earning instruments that carry a degree of interest rate risk. The goals of our investment policy are liquidity and capital preservation. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes and have not used any derivative financial instruments to manage our interest rate exposure. We believe that we do not have any material exposure to changes in the fair value of these assets as a result of changes in interest rates due to the short-term nature of our cash and cash equivalents.
We are also subject to interest rate exposure on our Concierge Facility and Revolving Credit Facility. Interest rate risk is highly sensitive due to many factors, including U.S. monetary and tax policies, U.S. and international economic factors and other factors beyond our control. Borrowings under our Concierge Facility bear interest at the term SOFR rate plus a margin of 2.75%. As of June 30, 2023, we had a total outstanding balance of $30.4 million under the Concierge Facility. The interest rate on the Concierge Facility was 8.30% as of June 30, 2023. Our Revolving Credit Facility bears interest equal to a base rate plus a margin of 1.50%. As of June 30, 2023, we had a total outstanding balance of $150.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility, which was fully repaid in July 2023. The interest rate on the Revolving Credit Facility was 8.43% as of June 30, 2023. Based on the amounts outstanding, a 100-basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates over a twelve-month period would not result in a material change to our interest expense.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
As our operations in India have been limited, and we do not maintain a significant balance of foreign currency, we do not currently face significant risk with respect to foreign currency exchange rates.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2023 due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below. In light of this fact, our management has performed additional analyses, reconciliations, and other post-closing procedures and has concluded that, notwithstanding the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, the consolidated financial statements for the periods covered by and included in this Quarterly Report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect transactions and the dispositions of assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with appropriate authorizations of management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on its financial statements.
Management, under the supervision of and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2023 using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in "Internal Control—Integrated Framework" (2013). Based on this assessment, management determined that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2023 was not effective due to the material weaknesses described below. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
•We did not design or maintain an effective control environment as we lacked sufficient oversight of activities related to our internal control over financial reporting due to a lack of an appropriate level of experience and training commensurate with public company requirements. This material weakness resulted in our identification of the following additional material weaknesses;
•We did not maintain formal accounting policies and procedures, and did not design, document and maintain controls related to substantially all of our business processes to achieve complete, accurate and timely financial accounting, reporting and disclosures, including controls over account reconciliations, segregation of duties and the preparation and review of journal entries; and
•We did not design and maintain effective controls over information technology, or IT, general controls for information systems and applications that are relevant to the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Specifically, we did not design and maintain (i) program change management controls to ensure that IT program and data changes affecting financial IT applications and underlying accounting records are identified, tested, authorized and implemented appropriately that are relevant to the preparation of our financial statements, (ii) user access controls to ensure appropriate segregation of duties and that adequately restrict user and privileged access to financial applications, programs, and data to appropriate personnel, (iii) computer operations controls to ensure that critical batch jobs are monitored and data backups are authorized and monitored, and (iv) testing and approval

of controls for program development to ensure that new software development is aligned with business and IT requirements. These IT deficiencies, when aggregated, could impact effective segregation of duties as well as the effectiveness of IT-dependent controls that could result in misstatements potentially impacting all financial statement accounts and disclosures that would not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, our management has determined these deficiencies in the aggregate constitute a material weakness.
None of the material weaknesses described above resulted in a material misstatement to our annual or interim consolidated financial statements. However, each of the material weaknesses described above could result in a misstatement of one or more account balances or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.
Remediation Plans
To date, we have implemented certain measures to address the identified material weaknesses. These measures include adding personnel as well as improving our internal controls around financial systems and processes. We intend to continue to take steps to remediate the material weaknesses described above and further evolve our internal controls and processes. We will not be able to remediate these material weaknesses until these steps have been completed and have been operating effectively for a sufficient period of time. The following remedial actions were taken through the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022:
•hired a Vice President of Internal Audit to oversee our internal controls program and work with management in its design and implementation of internal control over financial reporting;
•developed detailed action plans to address control deficiencies identified across business processes and financial systems impacting our financial reporting;
•engaged a global accounting advisory firm to assist with the documentation, evaluation, remediation and testing of our internal control over financial reporting;
•evaluated our internal control over financial reporting with respect to design, implementation, and operating effectiveness;
•added key resources to the Internal Audit team, including an IT expert;
•formalized our accounting policies, including training relevant personnel, related to, but not limited to, account reconciliations and manual journal entries; and
•formalized IT procedures for key financial systems, including training relevant personnel, related to segregation of duties, user access, batch jobs, data backups, change management, and program development.
The following remedial actions were taken during the six months ended June 30, 2023:
•continued enhancing our IT general controls resources, including hiring a new Chief Information Security Officer ("CISO") and a new Sr. Manager of IT Risk & Compliance;
•added an internal controls testing team under the leadership of the Vice President of Internal Audit; and
•performed various trainings for control owners in preparation for 2023 SOX procedures.
The following are the remaining remedial actions that management plans to undertake during remainder of 2023:
•ensure that the IT general controls specific to all key systems supporting financial reporting, including user access reviews, are being consistently operated and evidenced such that persuasive evidence is obtained that our IT general controls are effective and sustainable;
•ensure that controls over key reports and data derived from systems supporting financial reporting are consistently evidenced;
•ensure controls are in place to address segregation of duties risks that could present a reasonable possibility of material misstatements; and
•ensure that sufficient evidence of operating effectiveness is consistently demonstrated and maintained for key business process controls.

Table of Contents
While we believe that these efforts will improve our internal control over financial reporting, the implementation of our remediation is ongoing and will require testing of the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls over a sustained period of financial reporting cycles.
We believe we have made substantial progress toward achieving effective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. The actions that we are taking are subject to ongoing senior management review, as well as audit committee oversight. We will not be able to conclude whether the steps we are taking will remediate the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting until we have completed our remediation efforts and subsequent evaluation of their effectiveness. We may also conclude that additional measures may be required to remediate the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitation on the Effectiveness of Internal Control over Financial Reporting and Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
