- Founder Rich Barton Returns as CEO of Zillow Group
- Increased Borrowing Capacity to $1 Billion to Support Zillow Offers’ Rapid Growth in 2019 and Beyond
- Company Introduces Long-term 3- to 5-Year Targets
SEATTLE, Feb. 21, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Zillow Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: Z) (NASDAQ: ZG), which houses a portfolio of the largest and most vibrant real estate and home-related brands on mobile and the web, today announced its consolidated financial results for the quarter and full year ended December 31, 2018. In a separate news release, Zillow Group announced that co-founder Rich Barton is returning as CEO, co-founder Lloyd Frink has been named Executive Chairman, and co-founder Spencer Rascoff, who has served as CEO since 2010, will continue to serve as a member of the company’s board of directors.
“In the past year, Zillow Group has become a very different company,” said Rich Barton, co-founder and CEO of Zillow Group, Inc. “We’re making strategic investments to broaden the Zillow Group portfolio to move further down the home-shopping funnel, giving today’s ‘uberized,’ on-demand consumers a full spectrum of options to buy, sell, borrow and rent on their terms. The launch of Zillow Offers and the acquisition of Mortgage Lenders of America in 2018 opened our doors to home buying and selling and home loan originations. Adding real estate transactions and eventually seamless mortgages to the Zillow Group portfolio positions us well for the next generation of online real estate and dramatically increases our addressable market.
“We’re also in the process of transitioning our Premier Agent business from a web 1.0 lead-generation model to one that creates live on-demand connections with consumers to improve their experience and ultimately helps our Premier Agents close more deals. While our Premier Agent business is still recovering from some mid-year challenges, we’re now seeing better agent response rates and higher conversion rates, as our churn rates are approaching normal historical levels.
“2019 will continue to be a year of transformation and investment. We’re building on our market leadership, the power of the Zillow Group brand portfolio and our culture of innovation to nurture our new businesses, while also partnering with Premier Agents and the industry to delight consumers, and set the stage for our next wave of growth. We are sharing our three- to five-year targets that reveal what we believe will be a much larger, integrated online real estate company in which our Homes segment alone can add $20 billion in annual revenue.
“We created Zillow Group in 2005 to make the real estate shopping and purchase process easier and more seamless. Much of our original dream is just now becoming possible. We are at an inflection point in this quest, and the time is right to shuffle leadership seats. I’m excited to be back as CEO. I am incredibly grateful to Spencer for the indefatigable leadership that got us to this point, and I’m happy we will benefit from his continued support and counsel as a board director,” concluded Barton.
Details about Zillow Group’s fourth quarter and full year financial results are included in this news release. Financial tables can be found in the investor relations section of Zillow Group’s website at http://investors.zillowgroup.com/results.cfm. There will not be a shareholder letter this quarter, but the company will post prepared remarks from the conference call to the investor relations website after the call.
Long-Term Targets+
If Zillow Group is successful in executing its growth strategy, in three to five years, Zillow Group management believes the company could achieve the following:
Homes Segment
- Purchasing 5,000 homes per month at annualized segment revenue of approximately $20.0 billion.
Mortgages Segment
- Achieve 33% attach rate to the Homes segment.
- Originating more than 3,000 loans per month.
Internet, Media & Technology Segment
- Achieve more than $2.0 billion in annual segment revenue, almost doubling its current size.

+Please see “Forward-Looking Statements” below for additional information about these long-term targets.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2018 Financial Highlights
Fourth quarter total revenue of $365.3 million was up 29% year-over-year, driven primarily by growth in Premier Agent revenue and the addition of Homes revenue. On a consolidated basis, GAAP net loss for the fourth quarter of 2018, including a non-cash impairment charge, was $97.7 million, or 27% of revenue, and Adjusted EBITDA2 was $32.4 million, or 9% of revenue.
For the full year 2018, Zillow Group reported total revenue of more than $1.3 billion, up 24% year-over-year. On a consolidated basis, GAAP net loss for the year, including a non-cash impairment charge, was $119.9 million, or 9% of revenue, and Adjusted EBITDA was $200.8 million, or 15% of revenue.
1 Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure; it is not calculated or presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Please see the below section “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for more information about our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA. Zillow Group has not provided a quantitative reconciliation of forecasted segment Adjusted EBITDA to forecasted segment GAAP income (loss) before income taxes within this earnings release because the company is unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to calculate certain reconciling items with confidence, as described further below.

Audience Highlights
More than 157 million average monthly unique users accessed Zillow Group brands’ mobile apps and websites during the fourth quarter of 2018, an increase of 4% year-over-year. Zillow Group brands’ mobile apps and websites reached an all-time traffic high of more than 195 million unique users in July 2018.
Visits to Zillow Group brands’ mobile apps and websites Zillow®, Trulia®, StreetEasy® and RealEstate.com increased 12% year-over-year to approximately 1.6 billion during the fourth quarter of 2018. For the full year 2018, more than 7 billion visits occurred on Zillow Group brands’ mobile apps and websites, an increase of 14% year-over-year.
Homes Segment Results
Homes segment revenue was $41.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2018. Homes segment GAAP loss before income taxes for the fourth quarter of 2018 was approximately $27.2 million, or 66% of segment revenue, and Homes segment Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $20.0 million, or 48% of segment revenue.
During the fourth quarter of 2018, Zillow purchased 499 homes and sold 141 homes. As of December 31, 2018, Zillow held 509 homes in inventory, or $162.8 million in value.
In total, Zillow purchased 686 homes and sold 177 homes since Zillow Offers launched in April 2018. Zillow Offers is currently available in 7 markets with plans announced to be in at least 14 by the end of 2019. After less than a year, Zillow currently receives a request for a Zillow Offer every 5 minutes, which translates to an estimated $100 million in demand value per day.
As of December 31, 2018, Zillow Group had $116.7 million drawn on its credit facility for the Homes business. Zillow Group announced the expansion of its initial credit facility from $250 million to $500 million in 2018. In addition, in early 2019, Zillow Group entered into a second $500 million credit facility with a different bank for the purchase of homes through certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries. In total, Zillow Group now has $1 billion of maximum borrowing capacity to support Zillow Offers’ rapid growth in 2019 and beyond.
To help ensure profitability and to compensate for risk exposure, Zillow charges the seller a service fee in exchange for avoiding the hassle, time commitment and uncertainty of a traditional home sale. During the fourth quarter of 2018, that fee was an average of 7%. Additional unit economics disclosures are included in the supplemental financial tables available on the Investor Relations section of the Zillow Group website and with a Current Report on Form 8-K as furnished to the SEC on February 21, 2019.
Internet, Media & Technology Segment Results
Internet, Media & Technology (IMT) segment revenue of $324.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2018 grew 15% year-over-year. IMT segment GAAP loss before income taxes for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $78.9 million, or 24% of segment revenue, and IMT segment Adjusted EBITDA was $52.4 million, or 16% of segment revenue.
Premier Agent
Premier Agent revenue grew 11% year-over-year to $221.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2018. Due to changes made to the Premier Agent program in 2018, the company experienced increased advertiser account cancellations, or churn, that began in the third quarter. Based on feedback from advertisers about the lead validation and distribution process, Zillow Group implemented changes to attempt to remedy the situation. These changes have been well-received and the churn rate has started to return to historical norms as conversion and transaction rates are growing. However, the mid-year challenges led to a projected cumulative annual recurring revenue shortfall in Premier Agent revenue entering 2019, or an estimated 6 month sell-through gap to close.
Zillow Group anticipates recovery from advertiser and total dollar churn to occur in the first and second quarters of 2019. These are the most challenging quarters for prior-year comparisons in Premier Agent, when auction-based pricing drove substantial price increases for agents ahead of the mid-year product changes.
Rentals
Rentals revenue grew 21% year-over-year to $34.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2018. The year-over-year increase in Rentals revenue was primarily attributable to an increase in the number of average monthly monetized, deduplicated rental listings on Zillow Group’s mobile apps and websites, which increased 16% year-over-year to 40,889 for the fourth quarter of 2018.
Mortgages
Mortgages revenue was $23.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2018, a 26% increase year-over-year. Average revenue per loan information request in Zillow Group’s mortgage advertising marketplace decreased 10% year-over-year and the number of mortgage loan information requests submitted by consumers increased 4% year-over-year to 5.6 million.
Other Revenue
Other revenue, which includes revenue generated by New Construction, dotloop and Display, as well as revenue from the sale of various other marketing and business products and services to real estate professionals, grew 26% year-over-year to $44.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2018. The increase in Other revenue was primarily driven by approximately a 55% year-over-year increase in revenue from our New Construction marketplace.
Business Outlook - First Quarter and Full Year 2019
Beginning with the quarterly report for the first quarter of 2019, Zillow Group will report financial results and expects to provide outlook for three segments. Mortgages will become the third reportable segment and will include financial results for advertising sold to mortgage lenders and other mortgage professionals, mortgage originations through MLOA and Mortech mortgage software solutions. Zillow Group will now provide Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance for the next reportable three-month period and current full year for its IMT and Mortgages segments, as well as for Premier Agent revenue within the IMT segment. For Zillow Group’s Homes segment, the company will provide Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance only for the next reportable three-month period. Due to the nature of the Homes segment business model and newness of the business, longer term forecasts are highly sensitive to small changes in performance in the near term.

* Zillow Group has not provided a quantitative reconciliation of forecasted Adjusted EBITDA to forecasted GAAP net income (loss) for total Adjusted EBITDA or to forecasted GAAP income (loss) before income taxes for segment Adjusted EBITDA within this earnings release because the company is unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to calculate certain reconciling items with confidence. These items include, but are not limited to: income taxes which are directly impacted by unpredictable fluctuations in the market price of the company’s capital stock; depreciation and amortization expense from new acquisitions; impairments of assets; and acquisition-related costs. These items, which could materially affect the computation of forward-looking GAAP net income (loss) and income (loss) before income taxes, are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, many of which are outside of Zillow Group’s control. For more information regarding the non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this release, please see “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, this press release includes references to Adjusted EBITDA on both a consolidated basis and for each segment and including forecasted Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. We have provided a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, which is net loss on a consolidated basis and loss before income taxes for each segment, within this earnings release (except for forecasted Adjusted EBITDA, as discussed above).
Adjusted EBITDA is a key metric used by our management and board of directors to measure operating performance and trends and to prepare and approve our annual budget. The exclusion of certain expenses in calculating Adjusted EBITDA facilitates operating performance comparisons on a period-to-period basis.
Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not consider the potentially dilutive impact of share-based compensation;
- Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect impairment costs;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect acquisition-related costs;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest expense or other income;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect income taxes; and
- Other companies, including companies in our own industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
Because of these limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, net loss and loss before income taxes and our other GAAP results.
