Earnings Per Share [Abstract] |
Earnings Per Share [Text Block] | EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE Earnings (loss) per share attributable to Realogy Holdings Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed based on net income (loss) attributable to Realogy Holdings stockholders divided by the basic weighted-average shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive earnings (loss) per share is computed consistently with the basic computation while giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares and common share equivalents that were outstanding during the period. Realogy Holdings uses the treasury stock method to reflect the potential dilutive effect of unvested stock awards and unexercised options. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share:

_______________ (a)The Company was in a net loss position for the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and therefore the impact of incentive equity awards were excluded from the computation of dilutive loss per share as the inclusion of such amounts would be anti-dilutive (see Note 13, "Stock-Based Compensation", for outstanding equity awards as of December 31, 2020). (b)The year ended December 31, 2018 excludes 6.9 million shares of common stock issuable for incentive equity awards which includes performance share units based on the achievement of target amounts, that are anti-dilutive to the diluted earnings per share computation. Shares of Company common stock that have been repurchased pursuant to prior authorizations from the Company's Board of Directors have been retired and are not displayed separately as treasury stock on the consolidated financial statements. The par value of the shares repurchased and retired is deducted from common stock and the excess of the purchase price over par value is first charged against any available additional paid-in capital with the balance charged to retained earnings. Direct costs incurred to repurchase the shares are included in the total cost of the shares. The Company has not repurchased any shares under a share repurchase program since 2019, and in May 2020, the Company's Board of Directors terminated its outstanding share repurchase programs. In the first quarter of 2019, the Company repurchased and retired 1.2 million shares of common stock for $20 million at a weighted average market price of $17.21 per share. For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company repurchased and retired 17.9 million shares of common stock for $402 million at a weighted average market price of $22.47 per share. The Company is restricted from repurchasing shares during the covenant period (as described in the 2020 Amendments to the Senior Secured Credit Agreement and the Term Loan A Agreement) as well as pursuant to the restrictive covenants in the indentures governing the Unsecured Notes and 7.625% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes. See Note 9, "Short and Long-Term Debt—Senior Secured Credit Agreement and Term Loan A Agreement" and "—Unsecured Notes", for additional information.
