ARLINGTON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- CoStar Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSGP), a leading provider of online real estate marketplaces, information, analytics, and 3D digital twin technology in the property markets, announced today that revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $3.2 billion, up 19% over revenue of $2.7 billion for the full year of 2024. Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $900 million, an increase of 27% over revenue of $709 million for the fourth quarter of 2024.
Net income was $7 million for the full year 2025, which was impacted by acquisition costs from the Matterport and Domain acquisitions. Earnings per diluted share was $0.02 for the full year. Adjusted Net Income for the full year was $364 million, an increase of 23% versus 2024. Adjusted EBITDA for the full year of 2025 was $442 million, up 83%.
Net income was $47 million and earnings per diluted share was $0.11 for the fourth quarter of 2025. Adjusted Net Income rose to $131 million in Q4, up 24% year-over-year. Adjusted EPS was $0.31 in Q4, up 19% year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA was $177 million in Q4 2025, an increase of 58% from Q4 2024.
In 2026, the Company plans to repurchase $700 million shares of its Common Stock under its previously authorized $1.5 billion share repurchase program. In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company completed a $500 million share repurchase program, initiated in 2025.
“With our 59th consecutive quarter of double-digit revenue growth and Adjusted EBITDA surging 83% year-over-year, CoStar Group is entering a period of significant earnings acceleration,” said Andy Florance, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of CoStar Group. “The heavy lifting of the Homes.com national brand launch is behind us, and the launch of Homes Ai — the most sophisticated vertical Ai application in real estate — marks the beginning of a new era for our business. We intend to deploy this transformative capability across every platform in our portfolio, and I believe it will create lasting competitive distance between us and everyone else in the industry.”
Florance continued, “In just two years, the Homes.com Network has become the second largest and is the fastest growing residential portal network in the U.S, with over 2.1 billion views and 108 million average monthly unique visitors1 in 2025. We now have over 31,000 agent subscribers, 76% on annual contracts, generating nearly $100 million in annual run rate revenue.”

2026 Outlook
The Company is affirming its full year guidance provided on January 7, 2026 of revenue in the range of $3.78 billion to $3.82 billion for the full year of 2026, representing year-over-year growth of approximately 17% at the midpoint of the range. The Company expects revenue for the first quarter of 2026 in the range of $890 million to $900 million, representing revenue growth of approximately 22% year-over-year at the midpoint of the range.
“We are affirming the guidance from our January 7, 2026 press release for Adjusted EBITDA to range from $740 million to $800 million, a margin of 20% at the midpoint of the range. For the first quarter of 2026, we expect Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $95 million to $115 million. Our Adjusted EBITDA margins are expected to increase throughout the year based on the timing of our marketing spend and the seasonality of revenue for Domain,” said Chris Lown, CFO of CoStar Group.
The Company expects full year 2026 Adjusted EPS in a range of $1.22 to $1.33 based on 416 million shares, unchanged from its prior guidance. For the first quarter of 2026, the Company expects Adjusted EPS in a range of $0.16 to $0.19 based on 419 million shares. These ranges include an estimated non-GAAP tax rate of 26% for the full year and the first quarter of 2026. In addition, in the fourth quarter of 2025, we changed the composition of our segments from geography-based to product portfolio-based. Our segments are now comprised of a Commercial segment and a Residential segment, which aligns with how we manage CoStar Group. We have recast certain prior period disclosures to align with the new presentation.
The preceding forward-looking statements reflect CoStar Group’s expectations as of February 24, 2026, including forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures on a consolidated basis, based on current estimates, expectations, observations, and trends. Given the risk factors, rapidly evolving economic environment, and uncertainties and assumptions discussed in this release and in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and annual reports on Form 10-K, actual results may differ materially. Other than in publicly available statements, the Company does not intend to update its forward-looking statements until its next quarterly results announcement.
Reconciliations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are shown in detail below, along with definitions for those terms. A reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP guidance to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, net income (loss), can be found within the tables included in this release.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
For information regarding the purpose for which management uses the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this release and why management believes they provide useful information to investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, please refer to the Company’s latest periodic report.
EBITDA represents GAAP net income (loss) attributable to CoStar Group before interest income or expense, net and other income or expense, net; loss on debt extinguishment; income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expense.
Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA before stock-based compensation expense; acquisition- and integration-related costs; restructuring and related costs, including certain advisory fees; and settlements and impairments incurred outside the Company’s ordinary course of business. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenues for the period.
Adjusted Net Income is determined by adjusting GAAP net income (loss) attributable to CoStar Group for stock-based compensation expense; acquisition- and integration-related costs, including gains or losses on equity investments acquired in prospective targets and related to deal-contingent financial instruments; restructuring costs; settlement and impairment costs incurred outside the Company's ordinary course of business, and loss on debt extinguishment, as well as amortization of acquired intangible assets and other related costs, and then subtracting an assumed provision for income taxes. In 2026, the Company is assuming a 26% tax rate to approximate its statutory corporate tax rate, excluding the impact of discrete items, to determine Adjusted Net Income for each quarterly period, year-to-date period, and the annual period.
Adjusted EPS represents Adjusted Net Income divided by the number of diluted shares outstanding for the period used in the calculation of GAAP earnings per diluted share. For periods with GAAP net losses and Adjusted Net Income, the weighted average outstanding shares used to calculate Adjusted EPS includes potentially dilutive securities that were excluded from the calculation of EPS as the effect was anti-dilutive.
Operating Metrics
Net new bookings is calculated based on the annualized amount of change in the Company's sales bookings resulting from new subscription-based contracts, changes to existing subscription-based contracts, and cancellations of subscription-based contracts for the period reported. Information regarding net new bookings is not comparable to, nor should it be substituted for, an analysis of the Company's revenues over time.
Earnings Conference Call
Management will conduct a conference call to discuss the fourth quarter and full year 2025 results and the Company’s outlook at 5:00 PM ET on February 24, 2026. A live audio webcast of the conference will be available in listen-only mode through the Investors section of the CoStar Group website: https://investors.costargroup.com. A replay of the webcast audio will also be available in the Investors section of our website for a period of time following the call.

(3) Diluted earnings per share includes the effect of potential common shares, such as the Company's stock options, restricted stock units, and deferred stock units, to the extent the effect is dilutive. In periods with a net loss, the anti-dilutive effect of these potential common shares is excluded and diluted earnings (loss) per share is equal to basic earnings (loss) per share. In periods with GAAP net losses and Adjusted Net Income, the weighted average shares outstanding have been adjusted to include the dilutive impact on Adjusted EPS. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Actual results may differ materially from the results anticipated in the forward-looking statements and the assumptions and estimates used as a basis for the forward-looking statements. The following factors, among others, could cause or contribute to such differences: the risks related to artificial intelligence products such as Homes AI; our inability to attract and retain new clients; our inability to successfully develop and introduce new or updated online marketplace services, information, and analytics; our inability to compete successfully against existing or future competitors in attracting advertisers and in general; the effects of fluctuations and market cyclicality; the effects of global economic uncertainties and downturns or a downturn or consolidation in the real estate industry; our inability to hire qualified persons for, or retain and continue to develop our sales force, or unproductivity of our sales force; our inability to retain and attract highly capable management and operating personnel; the downward pressure that our internal and external investments may place on our operating margins; our inability to increase brand awareness; our inability to maintain or increase internet traffic to our marketplaces, and the risk that the methods, including Google Analytics, that we use to measure average monthly unique visitors to our portals may misstate the actual number of unique persons who visit our network of mobile applications and websites for a given month or may differ from the methods used by competitors; our inability to attract new advertisers; our inability to successfully identify, finance, integrate, and/or manage costs related to acquisitions; our inability to complete certain strategic transactions if a proposed transaction is subject to review or approval by regulatory authorities pursuant to applicable laws or regulations; our inability to realize the benefits of the acquisition of Matterport; the effects of cyberattacks and security vulnerabilities, and technical problems or disruptions; the significant costs associated with undertaking a large infrastructure project to build out our campus in Richmond, Virginia; our inability to generate increased revenues from our current or future geographic expansion plans; the risks related to acceptance of credit cards and debit cards and facilitation of other customer payments; the effects of climate related events and other events beyond our control; the effects related to attention to climate-related risks and opportunities; our inability to obtain and maintain accurate, comprehensive, or reliable data; our inability to obtain and maintain stable data feeds, or disruption of our data feeds; our inability to enforce or defend our ownership and use of intellectual property; the effects of use of new and evolving technologies, including artificial intelligence, on our ability to protect our data and intellectual property from misappropriation by third parties; our inability to defend against potential legal liability for collecting, displaying, or distributing information; our inability to obtain or retain listings from real estate brokers, agents, property owners, and apartment property managers; our inability to maintain or establish relationships with third-party listing providers; our inability to comply with the rules and compliance requirements of Multiple Listing Services; the risks related to international operations; the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations; our indebtedness; the effects of a lowering or withdrawal of the ratings assigned to our debt securities by rating agencies; the effects of any actual or perceived failure to comply with privacy laws and standards; the effects of changes in tax laws, regulations, or fiscal and tax policies; the effects of third-party claims, litigation, regulatory proceedings, or government investigations; and risks related to return on investment; the inability of third-party suppliers upon which Matterport relies to fulfill its needs; the risks associated with the ability to integrate Domain Holdings Australia Limited (the "Domain Transaction") and realize the benefits of the Domain Transaction; the risks related to open source software; and the risks related to the specific timing, price, and size of repurchases under the Stock Repurchase Program, including that the Stock Repurchase Program may be suspended or discontinued at any time at the Company’s discretion.
