eXp Realty Files Second Quarter 2015 Financials

Revenues up 57% Year Over Year

BELLINGHAM, WA–(Marketwired – August 11, 2015) – eXp Realty International Corporation (OTCQB: EXPI) today filed its second quarter Form 10-Q.

For the three months ending June 30, 2015, the Company reported revenue of $5,584,963 which represents a revenue increase of 57% compared to $3,550,011 for the same quarter 2014. In addition the company grew revenues over 52% for the first six months of 2015 vs the same period last year. The Company reported a GAAP net loss for the quarter of $5,003,204 most of which was attributable to accelerating certain stock compensation expenses based on reaching certain milestones in Atlanta, Georgia well in advance of growth goals and, in particular due to an increase in the publicly traded price of the company shares during the quarter and the intrinsic value method by which the Company values certain stock options issued prior to October 2013.

“As a company, from our staff, agents, brokers and the leadership team we are excited about our continued growth. Toward the end of 2014 and after the introduction of the company’s enhanced agent ownership initiatives we have seen an acceleration in agent attraction and an increase in overall agent retention which translates to a significant increase in revenue growth. We expect that this trend will continue as more and more agents look at the overall value proposition that eXp Realty represents in the industry. In addition to reduced overhead and generally higher compensation for agents and brokers, agents and brokers are attracted to education, technology, revenue sharing, and the opportunity to build an ownership stake in the public company,” reported Glenn Sanford, CEO of eXp Realty International.

The Company is also pleased to provide some additional growth metrics. Through the end of July 2015 the company has benefited from agent growth of 50% year to date bringing the total agent count up from 467 at the beginning of 2015 to in excess of 700 agents today. In April of 2015 the company announced that Gene Frederick and a number of other agents / brokers were in the process of joining in Austin, Texas. Since that time eXp Realty has added 41 real estate professionals to its roster in Austin, Texas and has learned that it is now one of the fastest growing real estate brokerages in Austin.

In June 2015, the company represented through its agent and broker base approximately $100 million in real estate sales. This represented the highest sales in any month previously and put the company on a going forward sales run rate of $1 Billion annually. Through all of 2014 the company did approximately $505 million in real estate sales.

Note: The Company accounts for stock options issued prior to October of 2013 using the intrinsic value method of accounting. As a result, the Company records non-cash compensation expense or benefit to reflect the change in intrinsic value at each reporting date. During the six month period ending June 30, 2015 the change in intrinsic value accounted for $4.03 million of compensation expense.
