SEATTLE, Aug. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Zillow Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:Z), which is transforming the way people buy, sell, rent and finance homes, today announced its consolidated financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

Complete financial results for the second quarter and outlook for the third quarter of 2025 can be found in the shareholder letter on the Investor Relations section of Zillow Group's website at https://investors.zillowgroup.com/investors/financials/quarterly-results/default.aspx.

"Zillow's Q2 results reflect how the power of our strategy and the strength of our execution are fueling growth across the company," said Zillow Chief Executive Officer Jeremy Wacksman. "We're relentlessly innovating to build a better real estate experience — one that helps more consumers move with confidence and gives real estate professionals the tools they need to power their businesses and serve movers effectively."

Recent highlights include:

Zillow Group's second-quarter results exceeded the company's outlook for revenue and delivered Adjusted EBITDA at the high end of the company's outlook range.
Q2 revenue was up 15% year over year to $655 million, above the company's outlook range. Q2 revenue outperformed the residential real estate industry's year-over-year total transaction value growth of 2% according to industry data tracked and estimated by Zillow,¹ and 1% according to NAR.² The company estimates Q2 purchase mortgage origination volume for the industry grew 1%.
- For Sale revenue was up 9% year over year to $482 million in Q2. On a trailing 12-month³ basis, For Sale revenue per Total Transaction Value was 10.3 basis points at the end of Q2, compared with 9.8 basis points for the same period in 2024.
  - Residential revenue was up 6% year over year in Q2 to $434 million, benefiting from growth in the company's agent and software offerings, as well as the company's New Construction marketplace.
  - Mortgages revenue increased 41% year over year to $48 million in Q2, primarily due to a 48% increase in purchase loan origination volume to $1.1 billion.
- Rentals revenue increased 36% year over year to $159 million in Q2, primarily driven by multifamily revenue growing 56% year over year.
On a GAAP basis, net income was $2 million in Q2, and net income margin was 0%.
Q2 Adjusted EBITDA was $155 million, and Adjusted EBITDA margin was 24%, driven by better-than-expected revenue growth and effective cost management.
Cash and investments at the end of Q2 were $1.2 billion, down from $1.6 billion at the end of Q1, primarily due to the May 2025 settlement of the company's remaining $419 million of convertible notes and $150 million in share repurchases.
Traffic to Zillow Group's mobile apps and sites in Q2 was up 5% year over year to 243 million average monthly unique users. Visits during Q2 were up 4% year over year to 2.6 billion.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, this press release includes references to Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure. We have provided a reconciliation below of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. We have not provided a quantitative reconciliation of forecasted GAAP net income (loss) to forecasted Adjusted EBITDA within this press release because we are unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to calculate certain reconciling items with confidence. These items include but are not limited to: income taxes that are directly impacted by unpredictable fluctuations in the market price of the company's capital stock; depreciation and amortization 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), are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, many of which are outside our control. We have not provided a reconciliation of forecasted Adjusted EBITDA margin to net income (loss) margin, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, for the same reasons.

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. In particular, 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 this measure 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 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 expenditures or contractual commitments;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect impairment costs;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect loss on extinguishment of debt;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest expense or other income, net;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect income taxes; and
Other companies, including companies in our own industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently from the way 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 income (loss), and our other GAAP results.
