“Our first quarter results were slightly better than we expected going into the year, but still down significantly from last year’s strong first quarter. Our performance relative to our expectations was led by the cyclically resilient elements of our business and our cost management efforts, which more than offset a greater-than-expected decline in property sales,” said Bob Sulentic, CBRE’s president and chief executive officer.

“Although we anticipate pressure on our transactional businesses to intensify further this year, we are maintaining our earnings outlook for full-year 2023, with core earnings per share expected to decline by low-to-mid double digits this year, but then exceed the prior peak in 2024. Our full-year outlook is supported by the same dynamics we saw in the first quarter – benefits from the diversification of our business and our intense focus on cost. There is more uncertainty in our outlook than there was 60 days ago, with our expectations underpinned by our view that a recession this year will be moderate and that an eventual easing of the Fed’s monetary policy will spur a rebound in economic activity in 2024.”

The cyclically resilient elements of CBRE’s business include its entire Global Workplace Solutions business, loan servicing, property management, valuations and the asset management component of its investment management business. Revenue from these businesses, collectively, rose nearly 10% in the first quarter and they are expected to generate more than 50% of the company’s business segment operating profit this year, a record high.

Property Leasing
•Global leasing revenue declined 8% (6% local currency). The current-quarter decline was against a particularly strong first quarter of 2022, when leasing revenue was up 49% versus first-quarter 2021.
•The decline was largely driven by the Americas, where revenue fell 10% (same in local currency).
•Foreign currency headwinds masked growth in overseas markets. Combined EMEA/APAC leasing revenue was up 6% in local currency, but down 2% in U.S. dollars.
•Global leasing revenue declined across all major property types, except retail, which was driven by strength in EMEA.

Capital Markets
•Sales revenue fell 41% (38% local currency) due to severely constrained capital availability and especially difficult comparisons with first-quarter 2022. In first-quarter 2022, sales revenue was up 58% from first-quarter 2021.
•In the Americas, sales revenue fell 43% (same local currency) from last year’s robust level, when year-over-year first-quarter sales revenue rose 59%. EMEA sales revenue declined 43% (39% local currency) while APAC sales fell 30% (22% local currency).
•Most debt capital sources sharply curtailed their lending activity. As a result, global mortgage origination revenue declined 51% (same local currency). Loan origination volume was down markedly with nearly all private and public sector capital sources.

Other Advisory Business Lines
•Loan servicing revenue rose 5% (same local currency). Excluding prepayment fees, loan servicing revenue increased 11% compared with first-quarter 2022. The servicing portfolio ended the quarter at approximately $386 billion, up 1% from year-end 2022 and 14% since first-quarter 2022.
•Property management net revenue edged up 1% (4% local currency), driven by the Americas and Pacific.
•Valuations revenue declined 9% (5% local currency).

•Facilities management net revenue rose 12% (16% local currency), supported by significant growth with technology and healthcare clients.
•Project management net revenue rose 18% (23% local currency), driven by large project mandates.
•GWS had its strongest first quarter for new business since 2019. The pipeline also rose to a record level with growth across nearly all key client sectors.
•GWS segment operating profit improved 13% (18% local currency) aided by project management’s outstanding performance and continued strong growth in Local and Enterprise accounts.

Note: all percent changes cited are vs. first-quarter 2022, except where noted.

Real Estate Development
•Development operating profit(8) totaled $90 million, driven by large industrial asset sales in January. The $17 million decline in operating profit primarily reflected a difficult comparison against particularly robust asset sale activity in first-quarter 2022.
•The in-process portfolio ended first-quarter 2023 at $17.3 billion, up $0.4 billion from year-end 2022, as certain projects, primarily industrial and residential, moved from the pipeline. The pipeline increased $0.2 billion during the quarter to $13.1 billion.

Investment Management
•Revenue edged up 3% in local currency but fell 2% in U.S. dollars to $147 million.
•Asset management fees were up 5% in local currency but were unchanged in U.S. dollars.
•Operating profit decreased 31% (29% local currency) to $43 million, due to modest co-investment losses versus significant gains in first-quarter 2022. Excluding co-investments, operating profit was roughly flat with first-quarter 2022.
•Assets Under Management (AUM) totaled $148.9 billion, a decrease of $0.4 billion from year-end 2022. The decrease was largely attributable to lower asset values, which offset net capital inflows and positive currency movement.
Corporate and Other Segment

•Non-core operating loss totaled $26 million, primarily due to the lower fair-value of the company’s investment in Altus Power, Inc. (NYSE:AMPS), reflecting a decline in the share price during the quarter.
•Net corporate overhead expenses decreased by 5%, or roughly $5 million, driven by lower stock compensation expense, partially offset by higher salary and benefits expenses.

The terms “net revenue,” “core adjusted net income,” “core EPS,” “business line operating profit,” “segment operating profit on revenue margin,” “segment operating profit on net revenue margin,” “core EBITDA,” “net debt” and “free cash flow,” all of which CBRE uses in this press release, are non-GAAP financial measures under SEC guidelines, and you should refer to the footnotes below as well as the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section in this press release for a further explanation of these measures. We have also included in that section reconciliations of these measures in specific periods to their most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP for those periods.
Totals may not sum in tables in millions included in this release due to rounding.

Note: We have not reconciled the (non-GAAP) core earnings per share forward-looking guidance included in this release to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because this cannot be done without unreasonable effort due to the variability and low visibility with respect to costs related to acquisitions, carried interest incentive compensation and financing costs, which are potential adjustments to future earnings. We expect the variability of these items to have a potentially unpredictable, and a potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results
(1)Local currency percentage change is calculated by comparing current-period results at prior-period exchange rates versus prior-period results.
(2)Net revenue is gross revenue less costs largely associated with subcontracted vendor work performed for clients. These costs are reimbursable by clients and generally have no margin.


CBRE Press Release
April 27, 2023

(3)Core adjusted net income and core earnings per diluted share (or core EPS) exclude the effect of select items from GAAP net income and GAAP earnings per diluted share as well as adjust the provision for income taxes and impact on non-controlling interest for such charges. Adjustments during the periods presented included non-cash depreciation and amortization expense related to certain assets attributable to acquisitions and restructuring activities, certain carried interest incentive compensation (reversal) expense to align with the timing of associated revenue, the impact of fair value adjustments to real estate assets acquired in the acquisition of Telford Homes plc in 2019 (the Telford acquisition) (purchase accounting) that were sold in the period, costs incurred related to legal entity restructuring, write-off of financing costs on extinguished debt, integration and other costs related to acquisitions, asset impairments, provision associated with Telford’s fire safety remediation efforts, and costs associated with efficiency and cost-reduction initiatives. It also removes the fair value changes and related tax impact of certain strategic non-core non-controlling equity investments that are not directly related to our business segments (including venture capital “VC” related investments). Note: Core adjusted EPS has been renamed core EPS for simplicity.
(4)Core EBITDA represents earnings, inclusive of non-controlling interest, before net interest expense, write-off of financing costs on extinguished debt, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, asset impairments, adjustments related to certain carried interest incentive compensation expense (reversal) to align with the timing of associated revenue, fair value adjustments to real estate assets acquired in the Telford acquisition (purchase accounting) that were sold in the period, costs incurred related to legal entity restructuring, integration and other costs related to acquisitions, provision associated with Telford’s fire safety remediation efforts, and costs associated with efficiency and cost-reduction initiatives. It also removes the fair value changes, on a pre-tax basis, of certain strategic non-core non-controlling equity investments that are not directly related to our business segments (including venture capital “VC” related investments).
(5)Free cash flow is calculated as cash flow provided by operations, less capital expenditures (reflected in the investing section of the consolidated statement of cash flows).
(6)Segment operating profit is the measure reported to the chief operating decision maker (CODM) for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to each segment and assessing performance of each segment. Segment operating profit represents earnings, inclusive of non-controlling interest, before net interest expense, write-off of financing costs on extinguished debt, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and asset impairments, as well as adjustments related to the following: certain carried interest incentive compensation expense (reversal) to align with the timing of associated revenue, fair value adjustments to real estate assets acquired in the Telford acquisition (purchase accounting) that were sold in the period, costs incurred related to legal entity restructuring, costs associated with workforce optimization, transformation initiatives and integration and other costs related to acquisitions, provision associated with Telford’s fire safety remediation efforts, and costs associated with efficiency and cost-reduction initiatives.
(7)Segment operating profit on revenue and net revenue margins represent segment operating profit divided by revenue and net revenue, respectively.
(8)Represents line of business profitability/losses, as adjusted.
(9)For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the company incurred capital expenditures of $60.3 million (reflected in the investing section of the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows) and received tenant concessions from landlords of $0.5 million (reflected in the operating section of the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows).
(10)Net debt is calculated as cash and cash equivalents less total debt (excluding non-recourse debt).
(11)Cash represents cash and cash equivalents (excluding restricted cash).

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The following measures are considered “non-GAAP financial measures” under SEC guidelines:
(i)Net revenue
(ii)Core EBITDA
(iii)Business line operating profit/loss
(iv)Segment operating profit on revenue and net revenue margins
(v)Free cash flow
(vi)Net debt
(vii)Core net income attributable to CBRE Group, Inc. stockholders, as adjusted (which we also refer to as “core adjusted net income”)
(viii)Core EPS
These measures are not recognized measurements under United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). When analyzing our operating performance, investors should use these measures in addition to, and not as an alternative for, their most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
Our management generally uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate operating performance and for other discretionary purposes. The company believes these measures provide a more complete understanding of ongoing operations, enhance comparability of current results to prior periods and may be useful for investors to analyze our financial performance because they eliminate the impact of selected charges that may obscure trends in the underlying performance of our business. The company further uses certain of these measures, and believes that they are useful to investors, for purposes described below.
With respect to net revenue, net revenue is gross revenue less costs largely associated with subcontracted vendor work performed for clients. We believe that investors may find this measure useful to analyze the company’s overall financial performance because it excludes costs reimbursable by clients that generally have no margin, and as such provides greater visibility into the underlying performance of our business.
With respect to Core EBITDA, business line operating profit/loss, and segment operating profit on revenue and net revenue margins, the company believes that investors may find these measures useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry because their calculations generally eliminate the accounting effects of acquisitions, which would include impairment charges of goodwill and intangibles created from acquisitions, the effects of financings and income tax and the accounting effects of capital spending. All of these measures may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. In the case of Core EBITDA, this measure is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for our management’s discretionary use because it does not consider cash requirements such as tax and debt service payments. The Core EBITDA measure calculated herein may also differ from the amounts calculated under similarly titled definitions in our credit facilities and debt instruments, which amounts are further adjusted to reflect certain other cash and non-cash charges and are used by us to determine compliance with financial covenants therein and our ability to engage in certain activities, such as incurring additional debt. The company also uses segment operating profit and core EPS as significant components when measuring our operating performance under our employee incentive compensation programs.
With respect to free cash flow, the company believes that investors may find this measure useful to analyze the cash flow generated from operations after accounting for cash outflows to support operations and capital expenditures. With respect to net debt, the company believes that investors use this measure when calculating the company’s net leverage ratio.


CBRE Press Release

With respect to core EBITDA, core EPS and core adjusted net income, the company believes that investors may find these measures useful to analyze the underlying performance of operations without the impact of strategic non-core equity investments (Altus Power, Inc. and certain other investments) that are not directly related to our business segments. These can be volatile and are often non-cash in nature.
