FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts, and can generally be identified by the use of words such as "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "project," "estimate," "plan," and similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as "will," "should," "would," "may" and "could."
In particular, information appearing under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" includes forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements inherently involve many risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in these statements. Where, in any forward-looking statement, we express an expectation or belief as to future results or events, it is based on management's current plans and expectations, expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis. However, we can give no assurance that any such expectation or belief will result or will be achieved or accomplished.
The following include some, but not all, of the risks and uncertainties that could affect our future results and cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements:
•The residential real estate market is cyclical, and we are negatively impacted by adverse developments or the absence of sustained improvement in the U.S. residential real estate markets, either regionally or nationally, which could include, but are not limited to factors that impact homesale transaction volume (homesale sides times average homesale price), such as:
◦prolonged periods of a high mortgage rate environment;
◦high rates of inflation;
◦continued or accelerated reductions in housing affordability, including but not limited to rising or high mortgage rates, the impact of increasing home prices, and the failure of wages to keep pace with inflation;
◦continued or accelerated increases in the costs of home ownership, including but not limited to rising or high insurance costs; continued or increasing challenging in securing homeowners insurance, especially in areas affected by the increasing severity of weather events, and increases in other fees and taxes;
◦continued or accelerated declines in consumer demand;
◦continued or accelerated declines in inventory or excessive inventory;
◦homeowners retaining their homes for longer periods of time, including as a result of the high mortgage rate environment, resulting in inventory shortages in existing housing;
◦continued or accelerated declines, or the absence of significant increases, in the number of home sales; and
◦stagnant or declining home prices;
•We are negatively impacted by adverse developments or the absence of sustained improvement in macroeconomic conditions (such as business, economic or political conditions) on a global, domestic or local basis, which could include, but are not limited to:
◦contraction, stagnation or uncertainty in the U.S. economy;
◦economic instability, including as related to foreign conflicts and supply chain disruptions;
◦continued or accelerated increases in inflation;
◦the potential or actual shutdown of the U.S. government due to a failure to enact debt ceiling legislation;
◦economic uncertainty associated with rising U.S. government debt levels; and
◦monetary policies of the federal government and its agencies, particularly those that may result in unfavorable changes to the interest rate environment;
•We are subject to risks related to industry structure changes that disrupt the functioning of the residential real estate market, including as a result of litigation, legislative or regulatory developments. Such industry changes could include: a change in the manner in which broker commissions are communicated, negotiated or paid, including potentially significant restrictions or bans on offers of compensation by the seller or listing agent to the buy-side agent; a potential increase in buyers transacting without a broker; potential changes to or elimination of the clear cooperation policy, which is a National Association of Realtors (“NAR”) mandated policy that requires a listing broker to submit a listing to

the MLS for cooperation with other MLS participants within a specified time of marketing a property to the public (the “Clear Cooperation Policy”);
•Risks related to the impact of evolving competitive and consumer dynamics, whether driven by competitive or regulatory factors or other changes to industry rules, which could include, but are not limited to:
◦meaningful decreases in the average broker commission rate (including the average buy-side commission rate);
◦continued erosion of our share of the commission income generated by homesale transactions;
◦our ability to compete against traditional and non-traditional competitors, including those that adapt more effectively, including by growing inorganically, to the continuing downturn in the housing market and the changes in industry rules and practices;
◦our ability to adapt our business to changing consumer preferences;
◦lessening of multiple listing services ("MLSs") obligations that may result in more unlisted properties and less inventory broadly available for sale; and
◦further disruption in the residential real estate brokerage industry related to listing aggregator market power and concentration, including with respect to ancillary services;
•Our business and financial results may be materially and adversely impacted if we are unable to execute our business strategy, including if we are not successful in our efforts to:
◦recruit and retain productive independent sales agents and teams, and other agent-facing talent;
◦continued strength and benefits in our franchise model (relative to other business options) to attract and retain franchisees or renew existing franchise agreements without reducing contractual royalty rates or increasing the amount and prevalence of sales incentives;
◦simplify the transaction process for agents and consumers;
◦develop or procure products, services and technology that support our strategic initiatives;
◦successfully adopt and integrate artificial intelligence (AI) and other machine learning technology into our products and services;
◦achieve or maintain cost savings and other benefits from our cost-saving initiatives;
◦generate a meaningful number of high-quality leads for independent sales agents and franchisees; and
◦complete, integrate or realize the expected benefits of acquisitions and joint ventures;
•Adverse developments or outcomes in current or future litigation, in particular class action antitrust litigation and litigation related to the Telephone Consumer Protection Act ("TCPA"), that may materially harm our business, results of operations and financial condition;
•Our s ubstantial indebtedness, alone or in combination with other factors, particularly heightened during industry downturns or broader recessions, could (i) adversely limit our operations, including our ability to grow our business whether organically or via acquisitions, (ii) adversely impact our liquidity including, but not limited to, with respect to our interest obligations and the negative covenant restrictions contained in our debt agreements and/or (iii) adversely impact our ability, and any actions we may take, to refinance, restructure or repay our indebtedness or incur additional indebtedness;
•An event of default under our material debt agreements would adversely affect our operations and our ability to satisfy obligations under our indebtedness;
•Our financial condition and/or results of operations may be adversely impacted by risks related to our business structure, including, but not limited to:
◦the operating results of affiliated franchisees and their ability to pay franchise and related fees;
◦continued consolidation among our top 250 franchisees;
◦challenges relating to the owners of the two brands we do not own;
◦the geographic and high-end market concentration of our company owned brokerages;
◦the loss of our largest real estate benefit program client or multiple significant relocation clients;
◦the failure of third-party vendors or partners to perform as expected or our failure to adequately monitor them;
◦our reliance on information technology to operate our business and maintain our competitiveness; and

Table of Contents
◦the negligence or intentional actions of affiliated franchisees and their independent sales agents or independent sales agents engaged by our company owned brokerages, which are traditionally outside of our control, and any resulting direct claims against us based on theories of vicarious liability, negligence, joint operations or joint employer liability;
•We are subject to risks related to legal and regulatory matters, which may cause us to incur increased costs and/or result in adverse financial, operational or reputational consequences to us, including but not limited to, our failure or alleged failure to comply with laws, regulations and regulatory interpretations and any changes or stricter interpretations of any of the foregoing, including but not limited to: (1) antitrust laws and regulations, (2) the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act ("RESPA") or other federal or state consumer protection or similar laws, (3) state or federal employment laws or regulations that would require reclassification of independent contractor sales agents to employee status, (4) the TCPA and any related laws limiting solicitation of business, and (5) privacy or cybersecurity laws and regulations;
•We face reputational, business continuity and legal and financial risks associated with cybersecurity incidents;
•Our goodwill and other long-lived assets are subject to further impairment which could negatively impact our earnings;
•We could be subject to significant losses if banks do not honor our escrow and trust deposits;
•Changes in accounting standards and management assumptions and estimates could have a negative impact on us;
•We face risks related to potential attrition among our senior executives or other key employees and related to our ability to develop our existing workforce and to recruit talent in order to advance our business strategies;
•We face risks related to our Exchangeable Senior Notes and exchangeable note hedge and warrant transactions;
•We face risks related to severe weather events or natural disasters, which may be exacerbated by climate change and may cause increased homeowners insurance costs, and other catastrophic events, including public health crises;
•Increasing scrutiny and changing expectations related to corporate sustainability practices may impose additional costs on us or expose us to reputational or other risks;
•Market forecasts and estimates, including our internal estimates, may prove to be inaccurate; and
•We face risks related to our common stock, including that price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly.
More information on factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated is included from time to time in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including this Quarterly Report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the "2023 Form 10-K"), particularly under the captions "Risk Factors," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and "Legal Proceedings." Most of these factors are difficult to anticipate and are generally beyond our control. You should consider these factors in connection with any forward-looking statements that may be made by us and our businesses generally.
All forward-looking statements herein speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report. Except as is required by law, we expressly disclaim any obligation to publicly release any revisions to forward-looking statements to reflect events after the date of this Quarterly Report. For any forward-looking statement contained in this Quarterly Report, our public filings or other public statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 1. Financial Statements.
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Anywhere Real Estate Inc.
Results of Review of Interim Financial Statements
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Anywhere Real Estate Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of September 30, 2024, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and of comprehensive income (loss) for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 and the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the "interim financial statements"). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive (loss) income, of equity and of cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated February 20, 2024, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 2023, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.
Basis for Review Results
These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Anywhere Real Estate Inc. ("Anywhere" or the "Company") is a holding company for its consolidated subsidiaries including Anywhere Intermediate Holdings LLC ("Anywhere Intermediate") and Anywhere Real Estate Group LLC ("Anywhere Group") and its consolidated subsidiaries. Anywhere, through its subsidiaries, is a global provider of residential real estate services. Neither Anywhere, the indirect parent of Anywhere Group, nor Anywhere Intermediate, the direct parent company of Anywhere Group, conducts any operations other than with respect to its respective direct or indirect ownership of Anywhere Group. As a result, the consolidated financial positions, results of operations, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows of Anywhere, Anywhere Intermediate and Anywhere Group are the same.
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the financial statements of Anywhere and Anywhere Group. Anywhere's only asset is its investment in the common stock of Anywhere Intermediate, and Anywhere Intermediate's only asset is its investment in Anywhere Group. Anywhere's only obligations are its guarantees of certain borrowings and certain franchise obligations of Anywhere Group. All expenses incurred by Anywhere and Anywhere Intermediate are for the benefit of Anywhere Group and have been reflected in Anywhere Group's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Interim results may not be indicative of full year performance because of seasonal and short-term variations. The Company has eliminated all material intercompany transactions and balances between entities consolidated in these financial statements. In presenting the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and the related disclosures. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment and available information. Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
In management's opinion, the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of Anywhere and Anywhere Group's financial position as of September 30, 2024 and the results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2023 was derived from audited annual financial statements but does not contain all of the footnote disclosures from the annual financial statements. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

("Leads Group").
•Anywhere Advisors ("Owned Brokerage Group")—operates a full-service real estate brokerage business under the Coldwell Banker®, Corcoran® and Sotheby’s International Realty® brand names in many of the largest metropolitan areas in the U.S. This segment also includes the Company's share of equity earnings or losses from the Company's minority-owned real estate auction joint venture.

Fair Value Measurements
The following tables present the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are categorized using the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy has three levels based on the reliability of the inputs used to determine fair value.

Level Input: |  | Input Definitions:
Level I |  | Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurement date.
Level II |  | Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level I that are observable for the asset or liability through corroboration with market data at the measurement date.
Level III |  | Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.

The availability of observable inputs can vary from asset to asset and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of asset, whether the asset is new and not yet established in the marketplace, and other characteristics particular to the transaction. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level III. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
The fair value of financial instruments is generally determined by reference to quoted market values. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques, as appropriate. The fair value of interest rate swaps is determined based upon a discounted cash flow approach.
The Company measures financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis and recognizes transfers within the fair value hierarchy at the end of the fiscal quarter in which the change in circumstances that caused the transfer occurred.
The following table summarizes fair value measurements by level at September 30, 2024 for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

| Level I |  | Level II |  | Level III |  | Total
Deferred compensation plan assets (included in other non-current assets) | $ | 1 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 1 |
Contingent consideration for acquisitions (included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other non-current liabilities) | — |  |  | — |  |  | 2 |  |  | 2 |

The following table summarizes fair value measurements by level at December 31, 2023 for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

| Level I |  | Level II |  | Level III |  | Total
Deferred compensation plan assets (included in other non-current assets) | $ | 1 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 1 |
Contingent consideration for acquisitions (included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other non-current liabilities) | — |  |  | — |  |  | 4 |  |  | 4 |

The fair value of the Company’s contingent consideration for acquisitions is measured using a probability weighted-average discount rate to estimate future cash flows based upon the likelihood of achieving future operating results for individual acquisitions. These assumptions are deemed to be unobservable inputs and as such the Company’s contingent consideration is classified within Level III of the valuation hierarchy. The Company reassesses the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities on a quarterly basis.

consideration for the right to access and benefit from Anywhere’s brands. In the event an ADF agreement is terminated prior to the end of its term, the unamortized deferred revenue balance will be recognized into revenue immediately upon termination.
(b)Revenues recognized include intercompany marketing fees paid by Owned Brokerage Group.
(c)The Company earns revenues from outsourcing management fees charged to clients that may cover several of the various relocation services according to the clients' specific needs.

(d)New development closings generally have a development period of between 18 and 24 months from contracted date to closing.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company estimates the allowance necessary to provide for uncollectible accounts receivable. The estimate is based on historical experience, combined with a review of current conditions and forecasts of future losses, and includes specific accounts for which payment has become unlikely. The process by which the Company calculates the allowance is performed in the individual business units where specific problem accounts are identified and reserved primarily based upon the age profile of the receivables and specific payment issues, combined with reasonable and supportable forecasts of future losses.
Supplemental Cash Flow Information
Significant non-cash transactions included finance lease additions of $4 million and $5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which resulted in non-cash additions to property and equipment, net and other non-current liabilities.
Leases
The Company's lease obligations as of September 30, 2024 have not changed materially from the amounts reported in the 2023 Form 10-K.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company systematically reviews and evaluates the relevance and implications of all Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs"). While recently issued standards not expressly listed below were scrutinized, they were deemed either inapplicable or anticipated to not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.
The FASB issued ASU 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures". This standard does not alter the methodology employed by the Company in identifying its operating segments, aggregating those operating segments or applying the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. Instead, the new standard adds required disclosures concerning significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to or easily computed from information regularly provided to by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") and included within the Company's reported measure of segment profit or loss, as well as certain other disclosures. The new standard also allows disclosure of multiple measures of segment profitability if those measures are used to allocate resources and assess performance by the CODM. Furthermore, certain annual disclosures will be required on an interim basis. The new standard should be adopted retrospectively and is effective for annual financial statements of public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and in interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its financial statement disclosures.
The FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures". This standard includes enhanced income tax disclosures primarily related to the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid for annual periods. The new standard is effective for annual financial statements of public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The new guidance should be adopted on a prospective basis with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its financial statement disclosures.
SEC Rule on Climate-Related Disclosures
In March 2024, the SEC adopted final regulations aimed at improving and streamlining climate-related disclosures for publicly traded companies and in public offerings. These regulations represent the SEC's response to investors' calls for more uniform, comparable, and trustworthy data regarding the financial implications of climate-related risks on a company's operations, as well as its strategies for managing such risks. The registrants will be required to provide disclosure, subject to
15

Table of Contents
existing audit requirements, regarding the effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions on the financial statements; financial information related to certain carbon offsets and renewable energy certificates; and material impacts on financial estimates and assumptions that are due to severe weather events and other natural conditions or disclosed climate-related targets or transition plans. Additional disclosure requirements will include: material direct and indirect (Scope 1 and Scope 2) greenhouse gas emissions; governance and oversight of material climate-related risks; the material impact of climate risks on the company’s strategy, results of operations and financial condition; risk management processes for material climate-related risks; and material climate targets and goals. The final rule was scheduled to become effective May 28, 2024, however, the SEC has voluntarily stayed the rule's effective date pending judicial review of consolidated challenges to those rules by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. Pending the resolution of the legal challenges, the final rule provides phase-in periods for compliance with the earliest compliance period applying to large accelerated filers for their annual reports for fiscal year 2025 (filed in 2026). The compliance period begins for annual reports for fiscal year 2026 (filed in 2027) for accelerated filers, with additional delays for smaller companies and greenhouse gas emissions related and certain other disclosures. The SEC final rules follow on the heels of the California climate legislation that will require public and private companies that do business in California to disclose their greenhouse gas emissions and their climate-related financial risks. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the new laws and regulations and monitor legal developments.

_______________
*The debt issuance costs related to our Revolving Credit Facility and securitization obligations are classified as a deferred financing asset within other assets.
(1)As of September 30, 2024, the Company had $1,100 million of borrowing capacity under its Revolving Credit Facility. As of September 30, 2024, there were $500 million of outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and $33 million of outstanding undrawn letters of credit. On November 5, 2024, the Company had $555 million of outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and $33 million of outstanding undrawn letters of credit.
(2)The interest rate with respect to revolving loans under the Revolving Credit Facility at September 30, 2024 is based on, at the Company's option, Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (" SOFR") plus a 10 basis point credit spread adjustment or JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A.'s prime rate ("ABR") plus (in each case) an additional margin subject to adjustment based on the then current senior secured leverage ratio. Based on the previous quarter's senior secured leverage ratio, the SOFR margin was 1.75% and the ABR margin was 0.75% for the three months ended September 30, 2024.
(3)The maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility is July 27, 2027; however, it may spring forward to March 16, 2026 if the 0.25% Exchangeable Senior Notes have not been extended, refinanced or replaced to have a maturity date after October 26, 2027 (or are not otherwise discharged, defeased or repaid by March 16, 2026).
(4)See below under the header "Repurchases of Unsecured Notes" for additional information with respect to repurchases in the third quarter of 2024.
(5)In May 2024, Anywhere Group extended the existing Apple Ridge Funding LLC securitization program until May 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had $200 million of borrowing capacity under the Apple Ridge Funding LLC securitization program with $148 million being utilized leaving $52 million of available capacity subject to maintaining sufficient relocation related assets to collateralize the securitization obligation. Certain of the funds that Anywhere Group receives from relocation receivables and related assets are required to be utilized to repay securitization obligations. These obligations are collateralized by $201 million and $146 million of underlying relocation receivables and other related relocation assets at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Substantially all relocation related assets are realized in less than twelve months from the transaction date. Accordingly, all of Anywhere Group's securitization obligations are classified as current in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Interest incurred in connection with borrowings under the facility amounted to $3 million

and $4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, as well as $7 million and $10 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. This interest is recorded within net revenues in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as related borrowings are utilized to fund Anywhere Group's relocation operations where interest is generally earned on such assets. The securitization obligations represent floating rate debt for which the average weighted interest rate was 8.1% and 7.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Maturities Table
As of September 30, 2024, the combined aggregate amount of maturities for long-term borrowings for the remainder of 2024 and each of the next four years is as follows:

Year |  | Amount
Remaining 2024 (a) |  | $ | 500 |
2025 |  | — |
2026 |  | 403 |

2028 |  | — |

_______________
(a)Outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility expire in July 2027 (subject to earlier springing maturity) but are classified on the balance sheet as current due to the revolving nature of borrowings and terms and conditions of the facility.
Term Loan A Facility and Repayment
On August 30, 2024, the Company repaid the entire outstanding principal amount of approximately $196 million along with accrued interest under the Term Loan A Facility, as amended, with a combination of cash on hand and borrowings from the Revolving Credit Facility.
The Term Loan A Facility was governed by the Company's Term Loan A Agreement dated as of October 23, 2015 (as amended, amended and restated, modified or supplemented from time to time). The interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan A Facility was based on, at the Company's option, Term SOFR plus a 10 basis point credit spread adjustment or ABR, plus (in each case) an additional margin subject to adjustment based on the then current senior secured leverage ratio.
Repurchases of Unsecured Notes
During the third quarter of 2024, the Company repurchased a total of $26 million of its Unsecured Notes, including $24 million held by funds managed by Angelo, Gordon & Co., L.P. ("Angelo Gordon"), a Delaware limited partnership, at an aggregate purchase price of $19 million, plus accrued interest to the respective repurchase dates.
Gain on the Early Extinguishment of Debt
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded gains on the early extinguishment of debt totaling $7 million as a result of the repurchases of Unsecured Notes occurring in the third quarter of 2024.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded gains on the early extinguishment of debt totaling $169 million which consisted of $151 million as a result of the debt exchange transactions and $18 million as a result of the open market repurchases occurring in the third quarter of 2023.

Restructuring charges for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 include $36 million of expense related to the Operational Efficiencies Plan and $4 million of expense related to prior restructuring plans.
Operational Efficiencies Plan
The Company is actively executing its strategic Operational Efficiencies Plan. In response to housing market trends, a significant workforce reduction occurred in January 2023. Additional costs in 2024 relate primarily to facility closures as part of ongoing execution. The Company’s broader cost reduction initiatives include digital transformation efforts and technology investments in efforts to support its independent sales agents, franchisees and consumers.
The following is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending reserve balances related to the Operational Efficiencies Plan:

| Personnel-related costs |  | Facility-related costs |  | Total
Balance at December 31, 2023 | $ | 10 |  |  | $ | 4 |  |  | $ | 14 |
Restructuring charges (1) | 13 |  |  | 8 |  |  | 21 |

Prior Restructuring Plans
During 2019, the Company took various strategic initiatives to reduce costs and institute operational and facility related efficiencies to drive profitability. During 2020, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company transitioned substantially all of its employees to a remote-work environment which allowed the Company to reevaluate its office space needs. As a result, additional facility and operational efficiencies were identified and implemented which included the transformation of its corporate headquarters in Madison, New Jersey to an open-plan innovation hub. At December 31, 2023, the remaining liability related to these initiatives was $9 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company incurred $3 million of costs and paid or settled $5 million of costs resulting in a remaining accrual of $7 million at September 30, 2024. The remaining accrual of $7 million and total amount remaining to be incurred of $15 million primarily relate to the transformation of the Company's corporate headquarters.
6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
The Company is involved in various claims, legal proceedings, alternative dispute resolution and governmental inquiries or regulatory actions, including the matters described below.
Litigation and other disputes are inherently unpredictable and subject to substantial uncertainties. Even cases brought by us can involve counterclaims asserted against us and even in matters in which we are not a named party, regulatory investigations and other litigation can have significant implications for the Company, particularly to the extent that changes in industry rules and practices can directly impact us. In addition, litigation and other legal matters, including class action lawsuits, multi-party litigation and regulatory proceedings challenging practices that have broad impact, can be costly to defend and, depending on the class size and claims, could be costly to settle. Certain types of claims, such as RESPA and antitrust laws, generally provide for joint and several liability and treble damages. Insurance coverage may be unavailable for certain types of claims (including antitrust and Telephone Consumer Protection Act ("TCPA") litigation), insurance carriers may dispute coverage, and even where coverage is provided, it may not cover the full amount of losses the Company incurs.
The Company believes that it has adequately accrued for legal matters as appropriate. The Company records litigation accruals for legal matters when it is both probable that a liability will be incurred, and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Where the reasonable estimate of the probable loss is a range, the Company records as an accrual in its financial statements the most likely estimate of the loss, or the low end of the range if there is no "most likely" estimate. For other litigation described on the following pages, management is unable to provide a meaningful estimate of the possible loss or range of possible losses that could potentially result from such litigation.
The captioned matters described herein cover evolving, complex litigation and the Company assesses its accruals on an ongoing basis taking into account the procedural stage and developments in the litigation. The Company could incur charges or judgments or enter into settlements of claims, based upon future events or developments, with liabilities that are materially in excess of amounts accrued and these judgments or settlements could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in any particular period. As such, an increase in accruals for one or more of these matters in any reporting period may have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and cash flows for that period.
21

Table of Contents
From time to time, even if the Company believes it has substantial defenses, it may consider litigation settlements based on a variety of circumstances.
All of these matters are presented as currently captioned, but as noted elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, Realogy Holdings Corp. has been renamed Anywhere Real Estate Inc.
Antitrust Litigation
As disclosed in Note 15, "Commitments and Contingencies—Litigation" to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2023 Form 10-K, the Company has been named in a number of class actions covering sellers of homes utilizing a broker during the class period that challenge residential real estate industry rules and practices that require an offer of compensation and payment of buyer-broker commissions and certain alleged associated practices, including in the following cases:
•Burnett, Hendrickson, Breit, Trupiano, and Keel v. The National Association of Realtors, Realogy Holdings Corp., Homeservices of America, Inc., BHH Affiliates LLC, HSF Affiliates, LLC, RE/MAX LLC, and Keller Williams Realty, Inc. (U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri) (formerly captioned as Sitzer);
•Moehrl, Cole, Darnell, Ramey, Umpa and Ruh v. The National Association of Realtors, Realogy Holdings Corp., Homeservices of America, Inc., BHH Affiliates, LLC, The Long & Foster Companies, Inc., RE/MAX LLC, and Keller Williams Realty, Inc. (U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois); and
•Nosalek, Hirschorn and Hirschorn v. MLS Property Information Network, Inc., Realogy Holdings Corp., Homeservices of America, Inc., BHH Affiliates, LLC, HSF Affiliates, LLC, RE/MAX LLC, and Keller Williams Realty, Inc. (U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts).
In October 2023, the Company agreed to a settlement, on a nationwide basis, of all claims asserted or that could have been asserted against Anywhere in the Burnett, Moehrl and Nosalek cases, including claims asserted on behalf of home sellers in similar matters (the “Anywhere Settlement”) and the court granted final approval of the Anywhere Settlement on May 9, 2024. The final approval has been appealed by several parties, including a plaintiff class member from the Batton buy-side case (described below), specifically claiming that the release in the Anywhere Settlement should not release any buy-side claims that sellers may also have.
The Anywhere Settlement releases the Company, all subsidiaries, brands, affiliated agents, and franchisees from all claims that were or could have been asserted by all persons who sold a home that was listed on a multiple listing service anywhere in the United States where a commission was paid to any brokerage in connection with the sale of the home in the relevant class period. The Anywhere Settlement is not an admission of liability, nor does it concede or validate any of the claims asserted against Anywhere.
Under the terms of the nationwide Anywhere Settlement, Anywhere has agreed to injunctive relief as well as monetary relief of $83.5 million, of which $30 million has been paid and the remaining $53.5 million will be due within 21 business days after all appellate rights are exhausted, the timing of which is uncertain. The Company currently expects the payment to occur no earlier than mid-2025.
The Anywhere Settlement includes injunctive relief for a period of five years, requiring practice changes in the Company owned brokerage operations and that the Company recommend and encourage these same practice changes to its independently owned and operated franchise network. The injunctive relief, includes but is not limited to, reminding Company owned brokerages, franchisees and their respective agents that Anywhere has no rule requiring offers of compensation to buyer brokers; prohibiting Company owned brokerages (and recommending to franchisees) and agents from using technology (or manually) to sort listings by offers of compensation, unless requested by the client; eliminating any minimum client commission for Company owned brokerages; and refraining from adopting any requirement that Company owned brokerages, franchisees or their respective agents belong to NAR or follow NAR’s Code of Ethics or MLS handbook. The practice changes are to take place no later than six months after the Anywhere Settlement receives final court approval and all appellate rights are exhausted.
More recent settlements by NAR, other Realtor® associations or MLSs involve injunctive relief that, if approved and implemented, will impact the entire industry, including our owned brokerages and those of our franchisees. Specifically, NAR entered into a nationwide class action settlement (the "NAR Settlement"), which has been preliminarily approved by the court, under which it has agreed to certain practice changes and to pay $418 million. These practice changes include, but are not limited to, prohibiting offers of compensation to buyer brokers from being made on listings on an MLS, requiring Realtors® representing a buyer to enter into a written agreement with a buyer, setting forth the buyer broker’s fee and
22

Table of Contents
obligations before showing the buyer a property, and prohibiting Realtors® from representing their services as free, or collecting greater compensation than set forth in the written agreement with the buyer. The NAR Settlement allowed for participation by non-NAR MLSs, but a number of those MLSs have elected not to participate in the NAR Settlement, and as such, they will continue to operate on their own rules regarding broker compensation and will not be restricted by the constraints in the NAR Settlement. The NAR Settlement was preliminarily approved on April 23, 2024 and a hearing for final approval of the NAR Settlement is scheduled for November 26, 2024.
In addition, since late October 2023, more than thirty copycat additional lawsuits with similar or related claims have been filed against various real estate brokerages, NAR, MLSs, and/or state and local Realtor Associations, about a third of which name Anywhere, its subsidiaries or franchisees. In those cases, plaintiffs have generally either agreed to dismiss or stay the actions against Anywhere, its subsidiaries or franchisees pending the conclusion of the appeals of the trial court's grant of final approval of the Anywhere Settlement.
McFall v. Canadian Real Estate Association, et al., Federal Court, Canada, Court File No. T-119-24. In this putative class action, filed on January 18, 2024, plaintiff alleges that Coldwell Banker Canada, amongst other brokers, franchisors, Regional Real Estate Boards (“RREB”) and the Canadian Real Estate Board (“CREB”) conspired to fix the price of buyer brokerage services in violation of civil and criminal statutes. On March 14, 2024, the Court entered an order functionally staying the matter pending further order of the court. We believe the court will reexamine this order upon conclusion of the appeal in a previously filed matter involving similar allegations but different parties.
Separately, a putative nationwide class action on behalf of home buyers (instead of sellers) captioned Batton, Bolton, Brace, Kim, James, Mullis, Bisbicos and Parsons v. The National Association of Realtors, Realogy Holdings Corp., Homeservices of America, Inc., BHH Affiliates, LLC, HSF Affiliates, LLC, The Long & Foster Companies, Inc., RE/MAX LLC, and Keller Williams Realty, Inc. (U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division) was filed on January 25, 2021 ("Batton", formerly captioned as Leeder), in which the plaintiffs take issue with certain NAR policies, including those related to buyer-broker compensation at issue in the Moehrl and Burnett matters, but claim the alleged conspiracy has harmed buyers (instead of sellers), and seek a permanent injunction enjoining NAR from establishing in the future the same or similar rules, policies, or practices as those challenged in the action as well as an award of damages and/or restitution, interest, and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses. The only claims remaining outstanding are state law claims. The Company's motion to dismiss remains pending. The Company disputes the allegations against it in this case, believes it has substantial defenses to plaintiffs’ claims, and is vigorously defending this litigation. In addition to these substantial defenses, the final approval of the Anywhere Settlement limited the size of the Batton case because the settling plaintiffs are releasing claims of the type alleged in Batton. As noted above, the named plaintiffs in the Batton case have filed an appeal of the final approval of the Anywhere Settlement, objecting to the release of buy-side claims in that settlement.
The Company believes that additional antitrust litigation and investigations related to other industry practices may be possible beyond what has already been filed. We believe, for example, the DOJ is continuing to focus on the manner in which broker commissions are communicated, negotiated and paid, including how MLSs and state associations are implementing the changes required by the NAR Settlement and potentially broader restrictions or bans on offers of compensation. Their focus has also expanded to include the comingling rule, which is a non-mandatory rule that precludes the joint display of MLS and non-MLS listings. The DOJ may expand its focus to include certain other rules, such as the Clear Cooperation Policy.
Telephone Consumer Protection Act Litigation
Bumpus, et al. v. Realogy Holdings Corp., et al. (U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, San Francisco Division). In this class action filed on June 11, 2019, plaintiffs allege that independent sales agents affiliated with Anywhere Advisors LLC violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 (TCPA) using dialers provided by Mojo Dialing Solutions, LLC and others. Plaintiffs seek relief on behalf of a National Do Not Call Registry class, an Internal Do Not Call class, and an Artificial or Prerecorded Message class.
While the Court certified the classes in March 2022, the plaintiffs filed a motion in early 2023 seeking to narrow the classes, which the Company opposed, seeking to decertify the classes. A trial has been scheduled for February 2025.
The Company disputes the allegations against it in this case, believes it has substantial defenses to both plaintiffs’ liability claims and damage assertions, and is vigorously defending this action.

•antitrust and anti-competition claims;
•TCPA claims;
•claims alleging violations of RESPA, state consumer fraud statutes, federal consumer protection statutes or other state real estate law violations;
•employment law claims, including claims that independent residential real estate sales agents engaged by our company owned brokerages or by affiliated franchisees—under certain state or federal laws—are potentially employees instead of independent contractors, and they or regulators therefore may bring claims against our Owned Brokerage Group for breach of contract, wage and hour classification claims, wrongful discharge, unemployment and workers' compensation and could seek benefits, back wages, overtime, indemnification, penalties related to classification practices and expense reimbursement available to employees or make similar claims against Franchise Group as an alleged joint employer of an affiliated franchisee’s independent sales agents;

•fraud, defalcation or misconduct claims.
Other ordinary course legal proceedings that may arise from time to time include those related to commercial arrangements, indemnification (under contract or common law), franchising arrangements, the fiduciary duties of brokers, standard brokerage disputes like the failure to disclose accurate square footage or hidden defects in the property such as mold, claims under the False Claims Act (or similar state laws), consumer lending and debt collection law claims, state auction law, and violations of similar laws in countries where we operate around the world with respect to any of the foregoing. In addition, with the increasing requirements resulting from government laws and regulations concerning data breach notifications and data privacy and protection obligations, claims associated with these laws may become more common. While most litigation involves claims against the Company, from time to time the Company commences litigation,

including litigation against former employees, franchisees and competitors when it alleges that such persons or entities have breached agreements or engaged in other wrongful conduct.

Cendant Corporate Liabilities and Legacy Tax Matter
Anywhere Group (then Realogy Corporation) separated from Cendant on July 31, 2006 (the "Separation"), pursuant to a plan by Cendant (now known as Avis Budget Group, Inc.) to separate into four independent companies—one for each of Cendant's business units—real estate services (Anywhere Group, formerly referred to as Realogy Group), travel distribution services ("Travelport"), hospitality services, including timeshare resorts ("Wyndham Worldwide"), and vehicle rental ("Avis Budget Group"). Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement dated as of July 27, 2006 among Cendant, Anywhere Group, Wyndham Worldwide and Travelport (the "Separation and Distribution Agreement"), each of Anywhere Group, Wyndham Worldwide and Travelport have assumed certain contingent and other corporate liabilities (and related costs and expenses), which are primarily related to each of their respective businesses. In addition, Anywhere Group has assumed 62.5% and Wyndham Worldwide has assumed 37.5% of certain contingent and other corporate liabilities (and related costs and expenses) of Cendant. The due to former parent balance was $39 million at September 30, 2024 and $38 million at December 31, 2023, respectively. The due to former parent balance was comprised of the Company’s portion of the following: (i) Cendant’s remaining contingent tax liabilities, (ii) potential liabilities related to Cendant’s terminated or divested businesses, and (iii) potential liabilities related to the residual portion of accruals for Cendant operations.
In December 2022, a hearing was held with the California Office of Tax Appeals ("OTA") on a Cendant legacy tax matter involving Avis Budget Group that related to a 1999 transaction. The case presented two issues: (i) whether the notices of proposed assessment issued by the California Franchise Tax Board were barred by the statute of limitations; and (ii) whether a transaction undertaken by Avis Budget Group in tax year 1999 constituted a tax-free reorganization under the Internal Revenue Code. In March 2023, the OTA decided in favor of the California Franchise Tax Board on both issues. As a result, the Company increased its accrual for this legacy tax matter in the first quarter of 2023 and as of September 30, 2024 the accrual is $39 million. On April 10, 2024, the Company's petition for rehearing was denied by the OTA, and the tax assessment is anticipated to become payable as early as the fourth quarter of 2024, even if judicial relief is sought.
Tax Matters
The Company is subject to income taxes in the United States and several foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in determining the worldwide provision for income taxes and recording related assets and liabilities. In the ordinary course of business, there are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Company is regularly under audit by tax authorities whereby the outcome of the audits is uncertain. The Company believes there is appropriate support for positions taken on its tax returns. The liabilities that have been recorded represent the best estimates of the probable loss on certain positions and are adequate for all open years based on an assessment of many factors including past experience and interpretations of tax law applied to the facts of each matter. However, the outcomes of tax audits are inherently uncertain.
Escrow and Trust Deposits
As a service to its customers, the Company administers escrow and trust deposits which represent undisbursed amounts received for the settlement of real estate transactions. Deposits at FDIC-insured institutions are insured up to $250,000. These escrow and trust deposits totaled approximately $699 million at September 30, 2024 and while these deposits are not assets of the Company (and, therefore, are excluded from the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets), the Company remains contingently liable for the disposition of these deposits.

Condensed Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity for Anywhere Group
The Company has not included a statement of changes in equity for Anywhere Group as the operating results of Anywhere Group are consistent with the operating results of Anywhere as all revenue and expenses of Anywhere Group flow up to Anywhere and there are no incremental activities at the Anywhere level. The only difference between Anywhere Group and Anywhere is that the $1 million in par value of common stock in Anywhere's equity is included in additional paid-in capital in Anywhere Group's equity.
Stock Repurchases
The Company may repurchase shares of its common stock under authorizations from its Board of Directors. Shares repurchased are retired and not displayed separately as treasury stock on the condensed 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's Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $300 million of the Company's common stock in February 2022. The Company has not repurchased any shares under the share repurchase programs since 2022. As of September 30, 2024, $203 million remained available for repurchase under the share repurchase program. The Company is subject to limitations on share repurchases, which include compliance with the terms of our debt agreements.
Stock-Based Compensation
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company granted restricted stock units related to 1.3 million shares with a grant date fair value of $6.09 and performance share units ("PSU") related to 1.3 million shares with a grant date fair value of $6.44. The Company granted all time-based equity awards in the form of restricted stock units which are subject to ratable vesting over a three-year period.
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company incorporated investor feedback in the design of its 2024 long-term incentive program in an effort to reduce volatility of payouts. The Company redesigned the PSU award tied to free cash flow achieved over a three-year period. Specifically, free cash flow targets are now set annually instead of a three-year cumulative goal set at the beginning of the three-year cycle, with the actual payout being the average of the payouts of the three separate annual achievements, subject to further adjustment based upon how Anywhere's common stock performed against a peer group over the three-year period. The actual payout, if any, will be subject to a 15% +/- adjustment if the total stockholder return of Anywhere's common stock is at or above the 75th percentile or below the 25th percentile of the total stockholder return of the peer group the Company's Compensation and Talent Management Committee uses to benchmark executive compensation (subject to additional weighting for the Company's direct peers in that peer group). With the foregoing change, the Company eliminated the separate PSU awards tied to the total stockholder return of Anywhere's common stock relative to the total stockholder return of the S&P MidCap 400 index, referred to as our RTSR PSU units.
8. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Earnings (loss) per share attributable to Anywhere
Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed based on net income (loss) attributable to Anywhere stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is computed consistently with the basic computation plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares include shares that the Company could be obligated to issue from its Exchangeable Senior Notes and warrants if dilutive and outstanding stock-based compensation awards. For purposes of computing diluted earnings (loss) per common share, weighted average common shares do not include potentially dilutive common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. As such, the shares that the Company could be obligated to issue from its stock options, warrants and Exchangeable Senior Notes are excluded from the earnings (loss) per share calculation if the exercise or exchangeable price exceeds the average market price of common shares.
The Company uses the treasury stock method to calculate the dilutive effect of outstanding stock-based compensation. If dilutive, the Company uses the if converted method to calculate the dilutive effect of its Exchangeable Senior Notes. These notes will have a dilutive impact when the average market price of the Company’s common stock exceeds the initial exchange price of $24.49 per share. The Exchangeable Senior Notes were not dilutive as of September 30, 2024 as the closing price of the Company's common stock as of September 30, 2024 was less than the initial exchange price.

Diluted earnings (loss) per share | $ | 0.06 |  |  | $ | 1.15 |  |  | $ | (0.58) |  |  | $ | 0.09 |

_______________
(a)The three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, exclude 7.1 million and 5.6 million shares of common stock, respectively, 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.
The Company was in a net loss position for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and therefore, the impact of incentive equity awards was excluded from the computation of dilutive loss per share as the inclusion of such amounts would be anti-dilutive. The nine months ended September 30, 2023 exclude 5.8 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.
(b)Shares to be provided to the Company from the exchangeable note hedge transactions purchased concurrently with its issuance of Exchangeable Senior Notes are anti-dilutive and therefore they are not treated as a reduction to its diluted shares.
9. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The reportable segments presented represent those for which the Company maintains separate financial information regularly reviewed and utilized by its chief operating decision maker for performance assessment and resource allocation. The classification of reportable segments also considers the distinctive nature of services offered by each segment.
Management's evaluation of individual reportable segment performance centers on two key metrics: revenue and Operating EBITDA. Operating EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net (excluding relocation services interest for securitization assets and securitization obligations), income taxes, and certain non-core items. Non-core items include restructuring charges, former parent legacy items, gains or losses on the early extinguishment of debt, impairments, and gains or losses on discontinued operations or the sale of businesses, investments, or other assets.
The Company’s presentation of Operating EBITDA may not align with similar measures employed by other entities. Variations may arise due to differences in the inclusion or exclusion of specific items and the interpretation of non-core elements within the calculation. This disclosure provides insight into the Company's approach to segment reporting and the metrics pivotal to its strategic decision-making processes.

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Binding Term Sheet for Investment in Independence Title Company and TitleOne
On November 6, 2024, the Company entered into a binding term sheet (the "Term Sheet") with RE Closing Buyer Corp. (the "Buyer"), a subsidiary of the Company’s title insurance underwriter joint venture, known as Title Resources Group, pursuant to which the Company will sell to the Buyer 10% of the equity of each of two entities the Company anticipates forming prior to closing, which entities are expected to contain the respective assets of the Company’s Independence Title business and TitleOne business (each individually, an "Agency" and collectively, the "Agencies") for an aggregate purchase price of $18.8 million (the "Transaction"). The Transaction values the Agencies at an aggregate enterprise value of $188 million.
The Term Sheet provides that until the third anniversary of the Transaction’s closing, the Buyer will have the right to purchase the remaining 90% of the equity in one or both of the Agencies for purchase price(s) based on the $188 million closing valuation. After the third anniversary and until the fifth anniversary of the Transaction’s closing, the Company will have the right to repurchase the 10% equity for an aggregate purchase price of $18.8 million, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, less the amount of any dividends paid (the "Repurchase Price"). After the fifth anniversary of the Transaction’s closing, if neither the Buyer nor the Company has exercised its purchase right, the Company will be required to repurchase the 10% equity for the Repurchase Price.
The Buyer's equity will be subject to customary minority protections as described in the Term Sheet. The obligations of the parties to enter into definitive agreements reflecting the Term Sheet are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions as described in the Term Sheet and the Term Sheet is subject to customary termination provisions.

CURRENT BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY TRENDS
The residential real estate market is at historic lows. According to data from NAR, homesale transactions in 2023 totaled 4.09 million compared to 5.03 million transactions in 2022 and 6.12 million in 2021, marking the lowest amount since 1995. For the Company, combined closed homesale sides for Franchise Group and Owned Brokerage Group decreased by 36% in 2023 compared to 2021.
Market conditions in the residential real estate industry remained weak in the first nine months of 2024. NAR reported that existing homesale transactions decreased 3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023. Fannie Mae, as of October is forecasting existing homesale transactions for 2024 to decrease 1% to 4.06 million, down from the 4.17 million forecasted in July 2024 and 4.24 million forecasted in January 2024.

Table of Contents
Several market factors contributed to the substantial declines in homesale transactions, the reduced activity in purchase and refinancing units and the reduced mortgage origination volume. These factors include the rapid escalation of mortgage rates starting in March 2022, persistent high inflation over the past two years, low housing inventory, reduced housing affordability, and broader macroeconomic concerns. The low housing inventory environment not only led to a decrease in closed homesale sides but also contributed to an elevation in the average homesale price over the past two years.
The table below sets forth changes in homesale transaction volume, closed homesale sides (homesale transactions) and average homesale price at Franchise Group and Owned Brokerage Group, both on a combined and individual basis, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared with the same period in 2023:

Operational Effi ciencies and Cost Savings. We continue to execute on our strategic Operational Efficiencies Plan to optimize operational efficiency, reduce office footprint costs, centralize certain aspects of our operational support structure and drive changes in how we serve our affiliated independent sales agents, franchisees and consumers. During the third quarter of 2024, we realized cost savings of approximately $30 million and approximately $90 million year to date of which approximately half related to specific restructuring activities.
Mortgage Rates. Freddie Mac's data shows that the average mortgage rates for a 30-year conventional fixed-rate mortgage more than doubled in 2022, reaching a peak of 7.79% in the fourth quarter of 2023, the highest since 2000. Although rates have shown a trend of gradual decline in the third quarter of 2024, they have remained above 6% throughout the year. As of the week ending October 31, 2024, mortgage rates averaged 6.72%.
Mortgage rates are influenced by a multitude of factors, including federal interest rates, Treasury note yields, inflation, demand, consumer income, unemployment levels, foreclosure rates, and fiscal and monetary policies. Since March 2022, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board has taken action intended to try to control inflation raising the target federal funds rate by over 400 basis points in 2022 and an additional 100 basis points in 2023. The Federal Reserve had kept rates unchanged since July 2023, however, in their most recent press release in September 2024, they expressed confidence that inflation is sustainably aligning with their target and lowered the target federal funds rate by 50 basis points. Additional rate cuts are expected in the future as the Federal Reserve continues to monitor the progress toward their target goals. As of September 30, 2024, yields on the 10-year Treasury note were 3.81% compared to 4.59% as of September 30, 2023.
The interest rate environment has adversely affected various aspects of our business. Higher mortgage rates typically lead to reduced homesale transaction volume, decreased housing affordability, and lower activity in both purchase and refinancing units and mortgage origination. We anticipate that our business will continue to be negatively impacted by the current high mortgage rate environment until there is an improvement in the interest rate environment. For example, we believe the high mortgage rate environment is contributing to decreased homesale transaction volume, as potential home sellers choose to stay with their lower mortgage rate rather than sell their home and pay a higher mortgage rate with the purchase of another home and potential home buyers choose to rent rather than pay higher mortgage rates.
Inflation. The prevailing inflationary environment has affected U.S. consumers and the repercussions may persist. As evidenced by the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI), a gauge employed by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, there was a 2.4% (not seasonally adjusted) increase for the 12-month period ended September 30, 2024. The CPI serves as a metric for capturing the average fluctuations in prices paid by urban consumers across a diverse array of consumer goods and services. The macroeconomic landscape, including on-going conflicts around the world, introduces an additional layer of complexity to the inflationary dynamics. These geopolitical disruptions have the potential to intensify inflationary pressures, contributing to the volatility witnessed in the broader economic context. As consumers navigate this challenging landscape, the potential for continued impact on their purchasing power remains a significant consideration.
Affordability. The combination of higher mortgage rates and inflation has negatively impacted housing affordability. This is further exacerbated by the significant increase in home prices due to inventory constraints. Future periods may see further negative impacts on housing affordability due to persistent inflation, potential increases in mortgage rates, rising homesale prices, the cost of homeowners and flood insurance, further declines in housing inventory, stagnant or declining wages and other economic challenges.
Inventory & Turnover. Continued declines in inventory have and may continue to result in insufficient supply to meet demand. Housing inventory levels have been a persistent industry-wide concern for years, particularly in certain sought-after geographies and at lower price points. Additional inventory pressure arises from periods of slow new housing construction, potential home sellers choosing to stay with their lower mortgage rate rather than sell their home, real estate investment firms that purchase homes for rental use, and alternative competitors, such as iBuying models. These pressures have led to a significant increase in the average sales price over the past two years, which we believe has contributed to further deterioration of inventory at lower price points.
Recruitment and Retention of Independent Sales Agents; Commission Income. Recruitment and retention of independent sales agents and independent sales agent teams are critical to the business and financial results of a brokerage, including our company owned brokerages and those operated by affiliated franchisees. We've seen modest declines in our independent sales agents which we believe are consistent with a broader market trend of agents leaving the industry. Moreover, ongoing legal issues and changes in industry practices suggest that less experienced agents may continue to exit the industry.

Aggressive competition for the affiliation of independent sales agents in this industry continues to make recruitment and retention efforts at both Franchise Group and Owned Brokerage Group challenging, in particular with respect to more productive sales agents, and had and may continue to have a negative impact on our market share. These competitive market factors along with other trends (such as changes in the spending patterns of independent sales agents, as more agents purchase services from third parties outside of their affiliated broker) are expected to continue to put upward pressure on the average share of commissions earned by independent sales agents. If independent sales agents affiliated with our company owned brokerages are paid a higher proportion of the commissions earned on a homesale transaction or the level of commission income we receive from a homesale transaction is otherwise reduced, the operating margins of our company owned brokerages could continue to be adversely affected. Similarly, franchisees have and may continue to seek reduced royalty fee arrangements or other incentives from us to offset the continued business pressures on such franchisees, which would result in a reduction in royalty fees paid to us.
Competition and Industry Disruption. See Part I., "Item 1.—Business—Competition" in our 2023 Form 10-K for a discussion of the current competitive environment, including with respect to competition for independent sales agents and franchisees as well as non-traditional competition and industry disruption.
Litigation & Regulatory Matters. As further described in Note 6, "Commitments and Contingencies" to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the final court approval of our nationwide settlement in the Burnett antitrust sell-side class action litigation (the "Anywhere Settlement") has been appealed, which delays our final payment of the remaining $53.5 million due under the Anywhere Settlement until 21 business days after all appellate rights are exhausted (we previously paid the first $30 million due), the timing of which is uncertain. We currently expect the payment to occur no earlier than mid-2025.
In addition, we believe the DOJ is continuing to focus on the manner in which broker commissions are communicated, negotiated and paid, including how MLSs and state associations are implementing the changes required by the NAR Settlement, and on broader restrictions or bans on offers of compensation. We believe the DOJ is continuing to focus on the industry and may continue to expand the scope of its scrutiny beyond the terms of the existing NAR Settlement.
Industry rules and practices, particularly those that mandate behavior by industry participants, have drawn increasing scrutiny and criticism, including from various industry participants as well as regulators, as an outgrowth of the industry antitrust litigation. These rules and practices include the Clear Cooperation Policy, which, as defined earlier, is a NAR mandated policy that requires a listing broker to submit a listing to the MLS for cooperation with other MLS participants within a specified time of marketing a property to the public, the rules mandating participation in state and national Realtor associations in order to post on the local MLS, the rules limiting access to lock-boxes used to facilitate property showings and the rules that limit display of co-mingled MLS and non-MLS listings.
The growing rules debate over the Clear Cooperation Policy could lead to material consequences for industry participants however it is addressed. Given the decades of industry practice that have led to the current system of broad public distribution of listings, it is difficult to understand the full range of impacts that might result from any particular resolution of the current rules debate. The withdrawal or significant minimization of the Clear Cooperation Policy obligations leading to increased privatization of listing content could benefit those brokerages and franchise systems with the largest listing inventory. Conversely, a failure by the industry to address the existing concerns with the rule's restrictions could result in increased industry litigation and regulatory scrutiny.
In addition, individual or cumulative impacts of ongoing industry change may cause more industry participants to evaluate their options and could lead to higher levels of industry consolidation than has been customary.
The ultimate impact to us of changes to industry rules and practices and/or the decision to maintain those practices, 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 on our revenue, profitability, or liquidity.
For further discussion of these matters, see Part II., "Item 1.—Legal Proceedings" and Note 6, "Commitments and Contingencies—Litigation", to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, as well as Part I., "Item 1.—Business—Government and Other Regulations", Part I., "Item 1A.—Risk Factors", Part I. and "Item 3.—Legal Proceedings" in our 2023 Form 10-K, and Note 15, "Commitments and Contingencies—Litigation", to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2023 Form 10-K.

This Quarterly Report includes data and information obtained from independent sources such as the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac"), the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board, the National Association of Realtors ("NAR") and the Federal National Mortgage Association ("Fannie Mae").

KEY DRIVERS OF OUR BUSINESSES
Within Franchise Group and Owned Brokerage Group, our assessment of operating performance relies on the following key operating metrics:
•Closed Homesale Sides: This metric captures the number of transactions representing either the "buy" or "sell" side of a homesale transaction.
•Average Homesale Price: This metric reflects the average selling price of closed homesale transactions.
•Average Homesale Broker Commission Rate: This metric indicates the average commission rate earned on either the "buy" or "sell" side of a homesale transaction.
For Franchise Group, an additional metric, Net Royalty Per Side, is utilized. This metric represents the royalty payment to the Franchise Group for each homesale transaction side factoring in royalty rates, homesale prices, average homesale broker commission rates, volume incentives and other incentives. Net royalty per side is a comprehensive measure that accounts for changes in average homesale prices and all incentives and represents the royalty revenue impact of each incremental side.
For Owned Brokerage Group, we also gauge performance using Gross Commission Income Per Side. This metric is derived by dividing gross commission income (comprising commissions from homesale transactions and other activities, primarily leasing transactions) by closed homesale sides. Owned Brokerage Group, as a franchisee of Franchise Group, pays a royalty fee of approximately 6% per transaction to Franchise Group. The remaining gross commission income is distributed between the broker (Owned Brokerage Group) and independent sales agents based on their respective independent contractor agreements, specifying the agents share of the broker commission.
For Title Group, our assessment of operating performance centers on key metrics related to title and closing units differentiating between Purchase Title and Closing Units (resulting from home purchases), and Refinance Title and Closing Units (stemming from homeowners refinancing their home loans). The Average Fee Per Closing Unit metric represents the average fee earned on both purchase and refinancing title sides.
The following table presents our drivers for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. See "Results of Operations" below for a discussion as to how these drivers affected our business for the periods presented.

Declines in the number of closed homesale sides and/or declines in average homesale price adversely affect our results of operations by: (i) reducing the royalties we receive from our franchisees, (ii) reducing the commissions our company owned brokerage operations earn, and (iii) reducing the demand for services offered through Title Group, including title, escrow and settlement services or the services of our mortgage origination, title underwriter insurance, or other joint ventures. Additionally, declining closed homesale sides and/or declines in average homesale price increase the risk of franchisee default due to lower homesale volume. Further, our results have been and may continue to be negatively affected by a decline in commission rates charged by brokers, greater commission payments to independent sales agents, lower royalty rates from franchisees or an increase in other incentives paid to franchisees, among other factors.
The decline in average homesale broker commission rate of 4 to 5 bps for the three months ended September 30, 2024, was relatively consistent as compared with the three months ended June 30, 2024 for both Franchise Group and Owned Brokerage Group. Based on the third quarter, there is no noticeable trend in the average homesale broker commission rate. However, we are still in the early stages of post implementation of the industry practice changes mandated by the NAR litigation settlement in August 2024.
Royalty fees are charged to all franchisees pursuant to the terms of the relevant franchise agreements and franchisees may receive volume incentives described in each of the real estate brands' franchise disclosure documents. Other incentives may also be used as consideration to attract new franchisees, grow franchisees (including through independent sales agent recruitment) or extend existing franchise agreements, although in contrast to volume incentives, the majority of other incentives are not homesale transaction based. See Part I., "Item 1.—Business—Anywhere Brands—Franchise Group—Operations—Franchising" in our 2023 Form 10-K for additional information.
Over the past several years, our top 250 franchisees have grown faster than our other franchisees through organic growth and market consolidation, which has had, and may continue to, put pressure on our ability to renew or negotiate franchise agreements with favorable terms due to their size and scale, and that has had, and could, adversely impact our royalty revenue.
We face significant competition from other national real estate brokerage brand franchisors for franchisees and we expect that the trend of increasing incentives will continue in the future in order to attract, retain, and help grow certain franchisees. Taking into account competitive factors, from time to time, we have and may continue to introduce pilot programs or restructure or revise the model used at one or more franchised brands, including with respect to fee structures, minimum production requirements or other terms. We expect to experience pressures on net royalty per side, largely due to the impact of competitive market factors noted above and continued concentration among our top 250 franchisees.
Owned Brokerage Group has a significant concentration of real estate brokerage offices and transactions in geographic regions where home prices are at the higher end of the U.S. real estate market, particularly the east and west coasts, while Franchise Group has franchised offices that are more widely dispersed across the United States. Accordingly, operating results and homesale statistics may differ between Owned Brokerage Group and Franchise Group based upon geographic presence and the corresponding homesale activity in each geographic region. In addition, the share of commissions earned by independent sales agents directly impacts the margin earned by Owned Brokerage Group. Such share of commissions earned by independent sales agents varies by region and commission schedules are generally progressive to incentivize sales agents to achieve higher levels of production.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Discussed below are our condensed consolidated results of operations and the results of operations for each of our reportable segments. The reportable segments presented represent those for which we maintain separate financial information regularly reviewed and utilized by our chief operating decision maker for performance assessment and resource allocation. The classification of reportable segments also considers the distinctive nature of services offered by each segment. Management's evaluation of individual reportable segment performance centers on two key metrics: revenue and Operating EBITDA. Operating EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net (excluding relocation services interest for securitization assets and securitization obligations), income taxes, and certain non-core items. Non-core items include restructuring charges, former parent legacy items, gains or losses on the early extinguishment of debt, impairments, and gains or losses on discontinued operations or the sale of businesses, investments or other assets. Operating EBITDA Margin is defined as Operating EBITDA as a percentage of revenues. Our presentation of Operating EBITDA may not align with similar measures employed by other entities. Variations may arise due to differences in the inclusion or exclusion of specific items and the interpretation of non-core elements within the calculation.

Our results of operations should be read in conjunction with our other disclosures in this Item 2. including under the heading Current Business and Industry Trends.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2024 vs. Three Months Ended September 30, 2023
Our consolidated results comprised the following:

| Three Months Ended September 30,
| 2024 |  | 2023 |  | Change
Net revenues | $ | 1,535 |  |  | $ | 1,584 |  |  | $ | (49) |

Less: Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests | — |  |  | — |  |  | — |
Net income attributable to Anywhere and Anywhere Group | $ | 7 |  |  | $ | 129 |  |  | $ | (122) |

Net revenues decreased $49 million or 3% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023 primarily driven by a decrease in revenue at Owned Brokerage Group due to lower homesale transaction volume.
Total expenses increased $118 million or 8% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023 primarily driven by gains on the early extinguishment of debt which were $7 million during the third quarter of 2024 compared to $169 million during the same period last year.
Total expenses, excluding the impact of gains on the early extinguishment of debt, decreased $44 million or 3% primarily due to:
•a $39 million decrease in commission and other sales agent-related costs as a result of lower homesale transaction volume at Owned Brokerage Group; and
•a $5 million decrease in marketing costs as a result of cost savings initiatives,
partially offset by a $10 million increase in operating and general and administrative expenses primarily as a result of meetings and conferences expenses at Franchise Group due to timing.
Equity in earnings were $6 million during the third quarter of 2024 compared to earnings of $4 million during the third quarter of 2023. Equity in earnings during the third quarter of 2024 consisted of $2 million of earnings for Guaranteed Rate Affinity, $1 million of earnings for the Title Insurance Underwriter Joint Venture and $3 million of earnings for the operations of our other equity method investments. Equity in earnings during the third quarter of 2023 consisted of $2 million of earnings for the Title Insurance Underwriter Joint Venture, $1 million of earnings for Guaranteed Rate Affinity and $1 million of earnings for the operations of our other equity method investments.
The Company continues to execute on its strategic plan ("the Operational Efficiencies Plan") to optimize operational efficiency, reduce its office footprint costs, centralize certain aspects of its operational support structure and drive changes in how it serves its affiliated independent sales agents, franchisees and consumers. Under the Operational Efficiencies Plan we incurred $5 million of costs, including $3 million of personnel related costs and $2 million of facility related costs, during the third quarter of 2024 compared to $8 million of costs during the third quarter of 2023. Total expected restructuring costs under the Operational Efficiencies Plan are currently anticipated to be $88 million with $84 million incurred to date through the third quarter of 2024. During the third quarter of 2024, we realized cost savings of approximately $30 million and approximately $90 million year to date of which approximately half related to specific restructuring activities. Furthermore, in connection with prior restructuring programs, we incurred $1 million of costs during both the third quarters of 2024 and 2023, primarily related to the transformation of our corporate headquarters. See Note 5, "Restructuring Costs", in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
The Company's provision for income taxes in interim periods is computed by applying its estimated annual effective tax rate against the income or loss before income taxes for the period. In addition, non-recurring or discrete items are recorded in the period in which they occur. The provision for income taxes was an expense of $2 million for the three months ended

September 30, 2024 compared to an expense of $45 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Our effective tax rate was 22% and 26% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
The following table reflects a reconciliation of Net income attributable to Anywhere and Anywhere Group to Operating EBITDA and the results of each of our reportable segments during the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:

_______________
(a)Restructuring charges incurred for the three months ended September 30, 2024 include $1 million at Franchise Group, $3 million at Owned Brokerage Group and $2 million at Corporate and Other. Restructuring charges incurred for the three months ended September 30, 2023 include $2 million at Franchise Group, $5 million at Owned Brokerage Group, $1 million at Title Group and $1 million at Corporate and Other.
(b)Non-cash impairments primarily related to leases.
(c)Former parent legacy items are recorded in Corporate and Other.
(d)Gain on the early extinguishment of debt is recorded in Corporate and Other. The gain on the early extinguishment of debt relates to the repurchases of Unsecured Notes that occurred during the third quarter of 2024, as well as the debt exchange transactions and open market repurchases that occurred during the third quarter of 2023.
(e)Revenues include the elimination of transactions between segments, which consists of intercompany royalties and marketing fees paid by Owned Brokerage Group of $86 million and $89 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and are eliminated through the Corporate and Other line.
As described in the aforementioned table, Operating EBITDA margin for "Total Company" expressed as a percentage of revenues decreased 1 percentage point for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. Franchise Group's margin and Owned Brokerage Group's margin both remained flat primarily due to declines in revenue offset by lower employee-related and other operating costs as a result of cost savings initiatives. Title Group's margin decreased 1 percentage point primarily due to an increase in employee-related and other operating costs.
Corporate and Other Operating EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2024 declined $5 million to a loss of $47 million primarily attributable to higher employee related expenses.
Anywhere Brands—Franchise Group
Revenues decreased $4 million to $267 million and Operating EBITDA decreased $4 million to $151 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023.
38

Table of Contents
Revenues decreased $4 million primarily due to a $4 million decrease in third-party domestic franchisee royalty revenue driven by a 5% decrease in existing homesale transactions and a decline in the average homesale broker commission rate, partially offset by a 7% increase in average homesale price, a $3 million decrease in intercompany royalties received from Owned Brokerage Group and a $2 million decrease in revenue from our relocation operations and leads business as a result of lower volume. Furthermore, brand marketing fund revenue and related expense decreased $3 million primarily due to lower advertising costs for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared with the same period in 2023. These decreases in revenue were partially offset by an $8 million increase in other franchise revenue primarily related to the timing of registration fees for meetings and conferences and an increase in international royalties.
Franchise Group's revenue includes intercompany royalties received from Owned Brokerage Group of $81 million and $84 million during the third quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively, which are eliminated in consolidation against the expense reflected in Owned Brokerage Group's results.
Operating EBITDA decreased $4 million primarily due to a $7 million increase in meetings and conferences expenses due to timing and the $4 million decrease in revenues discussed above, partially offset by a $4 million decrease in employee-related and other operating costs primarily as a result of cost savings initiatives and a $3 million decrease in brand marketing fund expense discussed above.
Anywhere Advisors—Owned Brokerage Group
Revenues decreased $51 million to $1,258 million and Operating EBITDA decreased $3 million to a loss of $11 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared with the same period in 2023.
The revenue decrease of $51 million was primarily driven by a 2% decrease in homesale transaction volume at Owned Brokerage Group which consisted of a 6% decrease in existing homesale transactions and a decline in the average homesale broker commission rate partially offset by a 4% increase in average homesale price.
Operating EBITDA decreased $3 million primarily due to the $51 million decrease in revenues as discussed above, partially offset by:
•a $39 million decrease in commission expenses paid to independent sales agents primarily as a result of lower homesale transaction volume;
•a $3 million decrease in other operating costs primarily as a result of cost savings initiatives;
•a $3 million decrease in royalties paid to Franchise Group;
•a $2 million decrease in marketing expense as a result of cost savings initiatives; and
•a $2 million improvement in equity in earnings to earnings of $2 million during the third quarter of 2024 from no equity earnings during the same period in 2023.
Anywhere Integrated Services—Title Group
Revenues increased $3 million to $96 million and Operating EBITDA decreased $1 million to $1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared with the same period in 2023.
Revenues increased $3 million primarily due to an increase in the average fee per closing unit and refinance units partially offset by a decrease in purchase units.
Operating EBITDA decreased $1 million primarily due to a $2 million increase in variable operating costs due to volume increases and a $2 million increase in employee-related and other operating costs, partially offset by a $3 million increase in revenues discussed above.

Net revenues decreased $56 million or 1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023 driven by decreases in revenues at Owned Brokerage Group and Franchise Group.
Total expenses increased $41 million or 1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023 primarily driven by gains on the early extinguishment of debt which were $7 million during the first nine months of 2024 compared to $169 million during the same period last year.
Total expenses, excluding the impact of gains on the early extinguishment of debt, decreased $121 million or 3% primarily due to:
•a $52 million decrease in operating and general and administrative expenses primarily attributable to higher expense in 2023 related to accruals for legal matters, as well as a decrease in employee-related and other operating costs due to cost savings initiatives;
•a $20 million decrease in commission and other sales agent-related costs at Owned Brokerage Group;
•an $18 million decrease in marketing costs as a result of cost savings initiatives;
•a $16 million decrease of former parent legacy costs due to the absence of expense for a legacy tax matter recorded during the first quarter of 2023; and
•$16 million of lower restructuring costs.
Equity in earnings were $8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to earnings of $7 million during the same period of 2023. Equity in earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 consisted of $2 million of earnings for the Title Insurance Underwriter Joint Venture and $6 million of earnings for the operations of our other equity method investments. Equity in earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 consisted of $4 million of earnings for the Title Insurance Underwriter Joint Venture, $1 million of earnings for Guaranteed Rate Affinity and $2 million of earnings for the operations of our other equity method investments.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we incurred $21 million of costs related to the Operational Efficiencies Plan, including $13 million of personnel related costs and $8 million of facility related costs, compared to $36 million of costs during the nine months ended 2023. Furthermore, in connection with prior restructuring programs, we incurred $3 million of costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 primarily related to the transformation of our corporate headquarters. See Note 5, "Restructuring Costs", in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
The Company's provision for income taxes in interim periods is computed by applying its estimated annual effective tax rate against the income or loss before income taxes for the period. In addition, non-recurring or discrete items are recorded in the period in which they occur. The provision for income taxes was a benefit of $15 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to an expense of $7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Our effective tax rate was 19% and 41% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily impacted by non-deductible executive compensation and equity awards for which the market value at vesting was lower than at the date of grant.

_______________
(a)Restructuring charges incurred for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 include $4 million at Franchise Group, $10 million at Owned Brokerage Group, $1 million at Title Group and $9 million at Corporate and Other. Restructuring charges incurred for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 include $8 million at Franchise Group, $23 million at Owned Brokerage Group, $2 million at Title Group and $7 million at Corporate and Other.
(b)Non-cash impairments primarily related to leases and other assets.
(c)Former parent legacy items are recorded in Corporate and Other and relate to a legacy tax matter.
(d)Gain on the early extinguishment of debt is recorded in Corporate and Other.

(e)Revenues include the elimination of transactions between segments, which consists of intercompany royalties and marketing fees paid by Owned Brokerage Group of $242 million and $245 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and are eliminated through the Corporate and Other line.
As described in the aforementioned table, Operating EBITDA margin for "Total Company" expressed as a percentage of revenues increased 1 percentage point for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. Franchise Group's margin remained flat primarily due to lower revenue, offset by lower employee-related and other operating costs as a result of cost savings initiatives. Owned Brokerage Group's margin increased 1 percentage point primarily due to cost savings initiatives. Title Group's margin remained flat primarily due to an increase in revenue as a result of an increase in the average fee per closing unit, offset by lower equity in earnings and higher employee-related and other operating costs.
Corporate and Other Operating EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 improved $25 million to a loss of $112 million primarily attributable to higher expense in 2023 related to accruals for legal matters.

Anywhere Brands - Franchise Group
Revenues decreased $30 million to $732 million and Operating EBITDA decreased $17 million to $399 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023.
Revenues decreased $30 million primarily due to a $19 million decrease in revenue from our relocation operations and leads business as a result of lower volume, a $5 million decrease in third-party domestic franchisee royalty revenue driven by a 5% decrease in existing homesale transactions and a decline in the average homesale broker commission rate partially offset by a 7% increase in average homesale price, and a $2 million decrease in intercompany royalties received from Owned Brokerage Group. Furthermore, brand marketing fund revenue and related expense decreased $7 million primarily due to lower advertising costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared with the same period in 2023. These decreases in revenue were partially offset by a $3 million increase in international and other franchise revenue.
Franchise Group's revenue includes intercompany royalties received from Owned Brokerage Group of $231 million and $233 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which are eliminated in consolidation against the expense reflected in Owned Brokerage Group's results.
Operating EBITDA decreased $17 million primarily due to the $30 million decrease in revenues discussed above, partially offset by a $9 million decrease in employee-related and other operating costs primarily as a result of cost savings initiatives and a $7 million decrease in brand marketing fund expense discussed above.
Anywhere Advisors - Owned Brokerage Group
Revenues decreased $34 million to $3,570 million and Operating EBITDA increased $27 million to a loss of $66 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared with the same period in 2023.
The revenue decrease of $34 million was primarily driven by a 6% decrease in existing homesale transactions and a decline in the average homesale broker commission rate, partially offset by a 7% increase in average homesale price.
Operating EBITDA increased $27 million primarily due to:
•a $23 million decrease in other operating costs primarily related to a decrease in employee-related costs due to lower employee headcount as a result of cost savings initiatives;
•a $20 million decrease in commission expenses paid to independent sales agents primarily as a result of lower revenue as discussed above;
•a $12 million decrease in marketing expense as a result of cost savings initiatives;
•a $3 million improvement in equity in earnings to earnings of $3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 from no equity earnings during the same period in 2023; and
•a $2 million decrease in royalties paid to Franchise Group,
partially offset by a $34 million decrease in revenues as discussed above.
Anywhere Integrated Services - Title Group
Revenues increased $5 million to $270 million and Operating EBITDA remained flat at a loss of $5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared with the same period in 2023.
Revenues increased $5 million primarily due to an increase in the average fee per closing unit and refinance units partially offset by a decrease in purchase units.
Operating EBITDA remained flat due to the $5 million increase in revenue as discussed above, partially offset by a $2 million decrease in equity in earnings, a $2 million increase in employee-related and other operating costs and a $1 million increase in variable operating costs related to higher revenue.

Total equity | 1,626 |  |  | 1,681 |  |  | (55) |

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, total assets decreased $91 million primarily due to:
•a $67 million net decrease in franchise agreements and other amortizable intangible assets primarily due to amortization;
•a $34 million net decrease in operating lease assets primarily due to asset depreciation;
•a $26 million net decrease in other current and non-current assets primarily due to prepaid contracts and independent sales agent incentives; and
•a $32 million decrease in property and equipment primarily due to asset depreciation,
partially offset by an $80 million increase in relocation and trade receivables primarily due to timing.
Total liabilities decreased $36 million primarily due to:
•a $41 million decrease in operating lease liabilities;
•a $17 million decrease in deferred tax liabilities;
•a $12 million decrease in other non-current liabilities primarily due to payment of long-term contracts; and
•a $12 million net decrease in corporate debt primarily related to repayment of Term Loan A Facility and repurchases of Unsecured Notes that occurred during the third quarter of 2024, partially offset by additional borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility as of September 30, 2024 (see Note 4, "Short and Long-Term Debt", to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further details),
partially offset by a $33 million increase in securitization obligations.
Total equity decreased $55 million due to a net loss of $64 million, partially offset by a $9 million increase in additional paid-in capital related to the Company's stock-based compensation activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash flows from operations, supplemented by funds available under our Revolving Credit Facility and Apple Ridge securitization facility are our primary sources of liquidity, along with, from time to time, distributions from our unconsolidated joint ventures.
Our primary uses of liquidity include working capital, business investment and capital expenditures, as well as debt service (including interest payments). We have used and may also use future cash flows to repurchase or redeem outstanding indebtedness and to acquire stock under our share repurchase program.
Business investments may include investments in strategic initiatives, including our existing or future joint ventures, products and services that are designed to simplify the home sale and purchase transaction, independent sales agent recruitment and retention, and franchisee system growth and acquisitions.
We believe that we will continue to meet our cash flow needs during the next twelve months through the sources outlined above. In the event that our liquidity assumptions change, or we seek to provide incremental liquidity, we may explore additional debt financing, debt exchanges, private or public offerings of debt or common stock or consider asset disposals.
From time to time, we seek to repay, refinance or restructure all or a portion of our debt or to repurchase our outstanding debt through, as applicable, tender offers, exchange offers, open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such transactions, if any, will depend on a number of factors, including prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements and contractual requirements (including compliance with the terms of our debt agreements), among other factors.

Table of Contents
On August 30, 2024 we repaid the entire outstanding principal amount of approximately $196 million along with accrued interest under the Term Loan A Facility with a combination of cash on hand and borrowings from the Revolving Credit Facility. In addition, during the third quarter of 2024, we repurchased a total of $26 million of our Unsecured Notes, including $24 million held by funds managed by Angelo Gordon, at an aggregate purchase price of $19 million, plus accrued interest to the respective repurchase dates. See Note 4, "Short and Long-Term Debt", to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on these transactions.
On May 9, 2024, we received final court approval of a settlement agreement the Company has entered into to settle all claims asserted against it or that could have been asserted against it in the Burnett and Moehrl antitrust class action litigation. The final approval has been appealed by several parties. Under the terms of the nationwide settlement, we agreed to injunctive relief as well as monetary relief of $83.5 million, of which $30 million has been paid and the remaining $53.5 million will be due within 21 business days after all appellate rights are exhausted, the timing of which is uncertain. We currently expect the payment to occur no earlier than mid-2025. See Note 6, "Commitments and Contingencies", to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
As further described in Note 6, "Commitments and Contingencies—Litigation—Cendant Corporate Liabilities and Guarantees to Cendant and Affiliates", the California Office of Tax Appeals has declined the Company’s petition for a rehearing of its legacy tax matter, and the tax assessment, which as of September 30, 2024 is accrued at $39 million, is anticipated to become payable when Avis Budget Group receives notice from California which could be as early as the fourth quarter of 2024, even if the Company seeks further judicial relief.
Other than the repayment of the Term Loan A Facility with a combination of cash on hand and borrowings from the Revolving Credit Facility, our material cash requirements from known contractual and other obligations as of September 30, 2024 have not changed materially from the amounts reported in our 2023 Form 10-K.
Other material factors that may impact our liquidity, include, but are not limited to, the following:
Market and Macroeconomic Conditions. Our earnings have significantly decreased since mid 2022. This decline has been driven by the rapid downturn in the residential real estate market and has resulted in a substantial increase in our net debt leverage ratio. If the residential real estate market or the economy as a whole does not improve or further weakens, our business, financial condition and liquidity are likely to continue to be adversely affected. In particular, we may experience higher leverage as a result of lower earnings and/or increased borrowing under our Revolving Credit Facility, and our ability to access capital, grow our business and return capital to stockholders may be adversely impacted.
Material Litigation. We are a party to certain material litigation, as described in Note 6, "Commitments and Contingencies—Litigation", to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. We dispute the allegations against the Company in each of these matters, believe we have substantial defenses against plaintiffs’ claims and are vigorously defending these actions, however it is not feasible to predict the ultimate outcome of litigation. Adverse outcomes in these matters could have a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, on our business, results of operations and financial condition, in particular with respect to liquidity.
Seasonality. Historically, operating results and revenues for all of our businesses have been strongest in the second and third quarters of the calendar year. A significant portion of the expenses we incur in our real estate brokerage operations are related to marketing activities and commissions and therefore, are variable. However, many of our other expenses, such as interest payments, facilities costs and certain personnel-related costs, are fixed and cannot be reduced during the seasonal fluctuations in the business. Consequently, our need to borrow under the Revolving Credit Facility and corresponding de bt balances ar e generally at their highest levels at or around the end of the first quarter of every year but a continued downturn in the residential real estate market or other factors impacting our liquidity could require us to incur additional borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Cash Flows
At September 30, 2024, we had $106 million of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, a decrease of $13 million compared to the balance of $119 million at December 31, 2023. The following table summarizes our cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:

| Nine Months Ended September 30,
| 2024 |  | 2023 |  | Change
Cash provided by (used in): |  |  |  |  |
Operating activities | $ | 37 |  |  | $ | 125 |  |  | $ | (88) |
Investing activities | (54) |  |  | (39) |  |  | (15) |
Financing activities | 3 |  |  | (146) |  |  | 149 |

Net change in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | $ | (13) |  |  | $ | (60) |  |  | $ | 47 |

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, $88 million less cash was provided by operating activities compared to the same period in 2023 principally due to:
•$151 million less cash provided by the net change in relocation and trade receivables due to timing; and
•$30 million more cash used for accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities primarily related to the payment of higher employee incentive compensation in the first quarter of 2024 and payments of previously accrued legal matters,
partially offset by $98 million more cash provided by operating results.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, $15 million less cash was provided by investing activities compared to the same period in 2023 primarily due to the absence in 2024 of $8 million of proceeds from the sale of business in 2023 and $6 million of proceeds received from investments in 2023.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, $3 million of cash was provided by financing activities compared to $146 million of cash used in financing activities during the same period in 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, $3 million of cash was provided by financing activities primarily due to:
•$215 million of additional borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility; and
•$33 million net increase in securitization borrowings,
partially offset by:
•$213 million of cash paid as a result of net cash paid related to repayment of Term Loan A Facility and repurchases of Unsecured Notes in the third quarter of 2024;
•$17 million of other financing payments primarily related to contracts and finance leases; and
•$12 million of quarterly amortization payments on the term loan facilities.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, $146 million of cash was used in financing activities as follows:
•$63 million of cash paid as a result of net cash paid related to debt exchange transactions and open market purchases in the third quarter of 2023;
•$50 million repayment of borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility;
•$25 million of other financing payments primarily related to finance leases and contracts; and
•$11 million of quarterly amortization payments on the term loan facilities,
partially offset by $7 million net increase in securitization borrowings.

Covenants under the Senior Secured Credit Facility and Indentures; Events of Default
The Senior Secured Credit Agreement and the indentures governing the Unsecured Notes and 7.00% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes contain various covenants that limit (subject to certain exceptions) Anywhere Group’s ability to, among other things:
•incur or guarantee additional debt or issue disqualified stock or preferred stock;
•pay dividends or make distributions to Anywhere Group’s stockholders, including Anywhere;
•repurchase or redeem capital stock;
•make loans, investments or acquisitions;
•incur restrictions on the ability of certain of Anywhere Group's subsidiaries to pay dividends or to make other payments to Anywhere Group;
•enter into transactions with affiliates;
•create liens;
•merge or consolidate with other companies or transfer all or substantially all of Anywhere Group's and its material subsidiaries' assets;
•transfer or sell assets, including capital stock of subsidiaries; and
•prepay, redeem or repurchase subordinated indebtedness.
As a result of the covenants to which we remain subject, we are limited in the manner in which we conduct our business and we may be unable to engage in favorable business activities or finance future operations or capital needs. In addition, the Senior Secured Credit Agreement requires us to maintain a senior secured leverage ratio.
Senior Secured Leverage Ratio applicable to our Senior Secured Credit Facility
The senior secured leverage ratio is tested quarterly and may not exceed 4.75 to 1.00. The senior secured leverage ratio is measured by dividing Anywhere Group's total senior secured net debt by the trailing four quarters EBITDA calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, as those terms are defined in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement. Total senior secured net debt does not include the 7.00% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes, our unsecured indebtedness, including the Unsecured Notes and Exchangeable Senior Notes, or the securitization obligations. EBITDA calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement, includes adjustments for restructuring, retention and disposition costs, former parent legacy cost (benefit) items, net, loss (gain) on the early extinguishment of debt, stock-based compensation expense, non-cash charges, extraordinary, nonrecurring or unusual items and incremental securitization interest costs, as well as pro forma cost savings for restructuring initiatives, the pro forma effect of business optimization initiatives and the pro forma effect of acquisitions and new franchisees, in each case calculated as of the beginning of the trailing four-quarter period. The Company was in compliance with the senior secured leverage ratio covenant at September 30, 2024.
Events of Default
Certain events would constitute an event of default under the Senior Secured Credit Facility as well as the indentures governing the 7.00% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes, Unsecured Notes and Exchangeable Senior Notes. Such events of default include, without limitation, nonpayment of principal or interest, insolvency, bankruptcy, nonpayment of certain material judgments, change of control, and cross-events of default on material indebtedness as well as, under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, material misrepresentations, failure to comply with the senior secured leverage ratio covenant and failure to obtain an unqualified audit opinion by 90 days after the end of any fiscal year. If such an event of default were to occur and the Company failed to obtain a waiver from the applicable lenders or holders of the 7.00% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes, Unsecured Notes or Exchangeable Senior Notes, our financial condition, results of operations and business would be materially adversely affected.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The SEC has adopted rules to regulate the use in filings with the SEC and in public disclosures of "non-GAAP financial measures," such as Operating EBITDA. These measures are derived on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with GAAP.
Operating EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net (excluding relocation services interest for securitization assets and securitization obligations), income taxes, and certain non-
46

Table of Contents
core items. Non-core items include restructuring charges, former parent legacy items, gains or losses on the early extinguishment of debt, impairments, and gains or losses on discontinued operations or the sale of businesses, investments or other assets. Operating EBITDA is our primary non-GAAP measure. Operating EBITDA Margin is defined as Operating EBITDA as a percentage of revenues.
We present Operating EBITDA because we believe it is useful as a supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of our operating businesses and provides greater transparency into our results of operations. Our management, including our chief operating decision maker, uses Operating EBITDA as a factor in evaluating the performance of our business. Operating EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or other statement of operations data prepared in accordance with GAAP.
We believe Operating EBITDA facilitates company-to-company operating performance comparisons by backing out potential differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting net interest expense), taxation, the age and book depreciation of facilities (affecting relative depreciation expense) and the amortization of intangibles, as well as other items that are not core to the operating activities of the Company such as restructuring charges, gains or losses on the early extinguishment of debt, former parent legacy items, impairments, gains or losses on discontinued operations and gains or losses on the sale of businesses, investments or other assets, which may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to operating performance. We further believe that Operating EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies, many of which present an Operating EBITDA measure when reporting their results.
Operating EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider Operating EBITDA either in isolation or as a substitute for analyzing our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
•this measure does not reflect changes in, or cash required for, our working capital needs;
•this measure does not reflect our interest expense (except for interest related to our securitization obligations), or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
•this measure does not reflect our income tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes;
•this measure does not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
•although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often require replacement in the future, and this measure does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and
•other companies may calculate this measure differently so they may not be comparable.
Critical Accounting Estimates
In presenting our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported therein. Several of the estimates and assumptions we are required to make relate to matters that are inherently uncertain as they pertain to future events. However, events that are outside of our control cannot be predicted and, as such, they cannot be contemplated in evaluating such estimates and assumptions. If there is a significant unfavorable change to current conditions, it could result in a material adverse impact to our combined results of operations, financial position and liquidity. We believe that the estimates and assumptions we used when preparing our financial statements were the most appropriate at that time.
These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2023 Form 10-K, which includes a description of our critical accounting policies that involve subjective and complex judgments that could potentially affect reported results.
Impairment of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets
Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are subject to an impairment assessment annually as of October 1, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable. The impairment assessment involves the use of accounting estimates and assumptions, changes in which could materially impact our financial condition or operating performance if actual results differ from such estimates and assumptions. Although management believes that assumptions are reasonable, actual results may vary significantly.
47

Table of Contents
Furthermore, significant negative industry or economic trends, disruptions to our business, unexpected significant changes or planned changes in use of the assets, a decrease in our business results, growth rates that fall below our assumptions, divestitures, and a sustained decline in our stock price and market capitalization may have a negative effect on the fair values and key valuation assumptions. Such changes could result in changes to our estimates of our fair value and a material impairment of goodwill or other indefinite-lived intangible assets. To address this uncertainty, a sensitivity analysis is performed on key estimates and assumptions.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 1, "Basis of Presentation", to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of recently issued accounting pronouncements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks.
We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates primarily through our senior secured debt. At September 30, 2024, our primary interest rate exposure was to interest rate fluctuations, specifically SOFR, due to its impact on our borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. We do not have significant exposure to foreign currency risk, nor do we expect to have significant exposure to foreign currency risk in the foreseeable future.
We assess our market risk based on changes in interest rates utilizing a sensitivity analysis. The sensitivity analysis measures the potential impact on earnings, fair values and cash flows based on a hypothetical change (increase and decrease) in interest rates. We exclude the fair values of relocation receivables and advances and securitization borrowings from our sensitivity analysis because we believe the interest rate risk on these assets and liabilities is mitigated as the rate we earn on relocation receivables and advances and the rate we incur on our securitization borrowings are based on similar variable indices.
At September 30, 2024, we had variable interest rate debt outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility of $500 million. The interest rate with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility was 6.70% at September 30, 2024, which is based on Term SOFR plus a 10 basis point credit spread adjustment plus an additional margin subject to adjustment based on the current senior secured leverage ratio. Based on the September 30, 2024 senior secured leverage ratio, the margin was 1.75%. At September 30, 2024, the one-month SOFR was 4.85%; therefore, we have estimated that a 0.25% increase in SOFR would have an approximately $1 million impact on our annual interest expense.

Anywhere Group's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, recognizes that any set of controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
(b)As of the quarterly period ended September 30, 2024 covered by this report on Form 10-Q, Anywhere Group has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that Anywhere Group's disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the "reasonable assurance" level.
(c)There has not been any change in Anywhere Group's internal control over financial reporting during the quarterly period ended September 30, 2024 covered by this report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.
Other Financial Information
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 30, 2024 and for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 have been reviewed by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm. Their reports, dated November 7, 2024, are included on pages 5 and 6. The reports of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP state that they did not audit and they do not express an opinion on that unaudited financial information. Accordingly, the degree of reliance on their report on such information should be restricted in light of the limited nature of the review procedures applied. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is not subject to the liability provisions of Section 11 of the Securities Act for their report on the unaudited financial information because that report is not a "report" or a "part" of the registration statement prepared or certified by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP within the meaning of Sections 7 and 11 of the Securities Act.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
See Note 6, "Commitments and Contingencies—Litigation", to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Overview and Industry Trends" for additional information on the Company's legal proceedings. The Company disputes the allegations against it in each of the captioned matters set forth in Note 6, believes it has substantial defenses against plaintiffs’ claims and is vigorously defending these actions (though the courts have stayed its defense in the Burnett and Moehrl cases as part of the settlement of those cases described in Note 6).
See Part I., "Item 1.—Business—Government and Other Regulations" in our 2023 Form 10-K for additional information on important legal and regulatory matters that impact our business, including a summary of the current legal and regulatory environment.
Litigation, investigations, claims and regulatory proceedings against other participants in the residential real estate industry or relocation industry—or against companies in other industries—may impact the Company and its affiliated franchisees when the rulings or settlements in those cases cover practices common to the broader industry or business community (such as in the areas of worker classification and antitrust and competition, among others) and may generate litigation or investigations for the Company. For example, see Note 6, "Commitments and Contingencies—Litigation" for additional information about the NAR Settlement and the DOJ's continuing focus on the manner in which broker commissions are communicated, negotiated and paid, including how MLSs and state associations are implementing the changes required by the NAR Settlement, and on broader restrictions or bans on offers of compensation and other industry rules. See Part I., "Item 1A.—Risk Factors" in our 2023 Form 10-K and Part I., "Item 2.—Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in this Quarterly Report for additional disclosure regarding industry structure changes.
Item 5. Other Information.
Binding Term Sheet for Investment in Independence Title Company and TitleOne
On November 6, 2024, Secured Land Transfers LLC (the "Seller"), a subsidiary of Anywhere Real Estate Inc. (the "Company"), entered into a binding term sheet (the "Term Sheet") with RE Closing Buyer Corp. (the "Buyer"), a subsidiary of the Company’s title insurance underwriter joint venture, known as Title Resources Group. Previously in March 2022, the Company sold its title insurance underwriter, Title Resources Guaranty Company (the "Title Underwriter") (previously reported in the Title Group reportable segment) in exchange for cash and a minority equity stake in the form of common units in a title insurance underwriter joint venture that owns the Title Underwriter (the "Title Insurance Underwriter Joint Venture"). The Company owns a 22% equity interest and other joint venture partners own a majority equity stake in the joint venture in the form of preferred units that carry liquidation preference rights. While we have certain governance rights, we do not have a controlling financial or operating interest in the joint venture.
Pursuant to the Term Sheet, the Seller will sell to the Buyer 10% of the preferred equity (the "Preferred Equity") of each of two entities the Company anticipates forming prior to closing, which entities are expected to contain the respective assets of the Company’s Independence Title business and TitleOne business (each individually, an "Agency" and collectively, the "Agencies") for an aggregate purchase price of $18.8 million (the "Transaction"). The Transaction values the Agencies at an aggregate enterprise value of $188 million.
The Term Sheet provides that until the third anniversary of the Transaction’s closing, the Buyer will have the right to purchase the remaining 90% of the equity in one or both of the Agencies for purchase price(s) based on the $188 million closing valuation. After the third anniversary and until the fifth anniversary of the Transaction’s closing, the Seller will have the right to repurchase the 10% Preferred Equity for an aggregate purchase price of $18.8 million, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, less the amount of any dividends paid (the "Repurchase Price"). After the fifth anniversary of the Transaction’s closing, if neither the Buyer nor the Seller has exercised its purchase right, the Seller will be required to repurchase the 10% Preferred Equity for the Repurchase Price.
The Preferred Equity will be subject to customary minority protections as described in the Term Sheet. The obligations of the parties to enter into definitive agreements reflecting the Term Sheet are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions as described in the Term Sheet and the Term Sheet is subject to customary termination provisions.
