Delivered record performance across all major business lines
Dear Fellow Stockholders:
Newmark s talent-driven and client-centric business model once again delivered industryleading financial performance.1 We achieved record full-year revenues in 2025 with broadbased growth, as our annual top line in each of our three major businesses surpassed
$1 billion.2 We increased the Company s Total Revenues 20%, GAAP EPS 100%, and
Adjusted EPS 32% in 2025.3
Our momentum accelerated in the first quarter of 2026, as we improved Total Revenues 27%,
GAAP EPS 260%, and Adjusted EPS 57%.4 Our results reflected strength across nearly all of
our service lines, which together fueled record first quarter consolidated revenues.
Our performance outpaced the Company s publicly traded competitors, as we continued to
advise on high-profile Capital Markets and Leasing transactions, win new mandates, deepen
our relationships with existing clients, and further expand our recurring revenue businesses.5
The Company s ongoing success is due to Newmark s industry-leading talent and our
expansion across service lines and geographies.
ANNUAL REPORT 2025 | 7

Newmark has reported double-digit year-on-year revenue growth for ten quarters in a row
in Capital Markets; seven consecutive quarters in Management Services, Servicing Fees,
and Other; and six successive quarters in Leasing and Other Commissions, all as of
March 31, 2026.
rose by 12% in 2025 and 21% in
the first quarter of 2026, led by strong organic growth from Valuation & Advisory,6 solid
improvement from our high margin Servicing and Asset Management platform, and
increased revenues from our expanding suite of other Management Services businesses.
These results also benefited from recent acquisitions.7
I climbed 17% in 2025 and 20% in the first quarter of
2026, results that meaningfully outpaced the average leasing growth of our publicly
traded full service peers.8 Newmark produced robust improvement from advising clients
across office, industrial, and retail in key markets like New York City, the San Francisco
Bay Area, and Texas.
I grew by over 35% and 45% in 2025 and the first quarter of 2026,
respectively. These results included significant volume growth across every major
property type, as Newmark once again outpaced the industry in both investment sales
and originations.9 We also achieved a 28% increase in GSE/FHA10 volumes over the
trailing twelve months, which we expect to drive the future growth of our high-margin
Servicing fees.
and once again expanded our margins year-onyear due to our strong top line growth and ongoing cost discipline.11 As a result, Newmark
generated seven consecutive quarters of double-digit top line growth and eight quarters
in a row of at least double-digit bottom line improvement as of the first quarter of 2026.
Over the past decade, we have had a clear ambition: build a best-in-class, global, full-service
commercial real estate services firm.12 Our plan for achieving this ambition centered on three
priorities: 1) gain share in Capital Markets; 2) scale our recurring revenue businesses; and 3
expand internationally, all while attracting, supporting, and retaining exceptional talent.
We have successfully implemented our plan by continuously focusing on hiring and retaining
the industry s most productive professionals and providing them with the data, analytics, and
other support, including artificial intelligence tools, they need to excel.13 We view the advent
of AI not only as a defining economic force of our era, but as an accelerant for the Company
that will better enable our team members to efficiently bring new and innovative solutions to
their clients. We are using both off-the-shelf solutions and investing in proprietary technology
and data analytics capabilities accelerated by AI, and we expect this to enhance Newmark s
productivity and efficiency over time.
The Company empowers its professionals to consistently provide clients with world-class
service, while encouraging a culture of collaboration. We have also maintained a disciplined
approach to acquisitions while making organic investments into both existing businesses
and adding new service lines. The result is a much larger, more diversified, and more
capable Newmark.
Between 2011 and the twelve months ended March 31, 2026, Newmark increased Total
Revenues by more than fifteen times to $3.475 billion. This translates into a CAGR of 21%,
which meaningfully outpaced the 13% average for our publicly traded peers over this period.14
Newmark continued to outperform more recently. We grew Total Revenues by 20% in 2025
versus 11% for the mean competitor. In the first quarter of 2026, we improved our top line by
27%, which was approximately 9 percentage points better than the public peer average. In
both of these recent periods, we have outperformed the average public competitor across
each of our major business lines.15

We made a deliberate decision in 2014 to focus on investing in our Capital Markets platform,
believing it to be a catalyst for growth across multiple service lines. Not only do our clients
rely on our professionals for advice with respect to financing or selling properties, but they
also need providers for leasing, appraising, and managing properties; servicing loans; and
optimizing operations. Capital Markets is therefore an important entry point into broader
relationships that drive Newmark s overall performance.
Our platform s success is undeniable. In 2014, Newmark had 1.1% market share in U.S.
commercial and multifamily originations and 1.8% in U.S. investment sales. By 2025, we grew
our proportion of U.S. originations by nearly 9 times to 9.7% and increased our share of U.S.
investment sales approximately six-fold to 10.3%.16

Thanks to the international investments we have made over the past few years, Newmark is
now replicating these gains globally. Over the twelve months ended March 31, 2026, Newmark
increased its non-U.S. Investment Sales volumes by 65% year-over-year, versus 3% for overall
non-U.S. industry volumes. Over the same period, we grew our U.S. volumes in Total Debt
and Investment Sales by 79% and 43%, respectively, which outpaced corresponding industry
volumes by approximately 39 and 15 percentage points.17

ANNUAL REPORT 2025 | 9
Since our 2017 IPO, we have focused on expanding our Management and Servicing
businesses. These efforts have paid off spectacularly, as our recurring revenue businesses
have been Newmark s leading growth engine. From 2017 through the trailing twelve months,
we increased revenues for our resilient service lines by nearly 250% to over $1.3 billion.
This represents a CAGR of more than 16%, exceeding that for any of our full service peers
comparable businesses. Recurring businesses are now our largest major service line and
contribute approximately 38% of Newmark s Total Revenues versus 24% in 2017.18
A key component of this outperformance has been our V&A platform, which generated less
than $15 million of revenue in 2017. Through a combination of organic investment, bolt-on
acquisitions, and successful cross-selling to our owner and investor clients, we substantially
increased V&A revenue to more than $207 million over the trailing twelve months. We now
appraise more than $1.4 trillion in property value annually and expect this figure to grow as we
further expand into new territories and specialty property types.19
Another growth driver is our Servicing and Asset Management platform, which generated
$298 million in high margin fees over the trailing twelve months, up 8% year-on-year. This
performance reflected a 19% year-on-year rise in our total loan portfolio to an all-time best
of $222 billion as of March 31, 2026, which more than tripled the $71 billion we recorded
at the end of 2022. Our Servicing growth has catapulted Newmark into the top ten among
commercial and multifamily loan servicers, according to the MBA.20
We are also driving growth by continuing to invest in Newmark s suite of services across
our Occupier Solutions businesses, which collectively produced solid revenue growth in both
2025 and the first quarter of 2026.21 Working closely with our Tenant Representation Leasing
teams, our professionals provide large, global corporations and other occupiers solutions
including Facilities Management, Lease Administration, Transaction Management, Program
& Project Management, and consulting with respect to location, site selection, economic
incentives, and workplace strategy. Newmark s recent market share gains in both Leasing
and Management Services are due in part to our ability to capture large-scale, multi-market,
and complex transactions from global clients while providing them with an expanding array of
ancillary services.
As we expand internationally to serve our growing roster of global occupier clients across
Leasing and Management Services, we also continue to successfully cross-sell between our
suite of businesses focused on investors, owners, and lenders. We therefore remain confident
in achieving our goal of over $2 billion of recurring revenues by 2029. Because our high
margin Servicing and Asset Management platform is a relatively large percentage of
Newmark s resilient revenues, and because we have improved the overall margins for our
Management Services businesses as they have gained scale, we anticipate Management
Services, Servicing Fees, and Other to continue driving our revenue and earnings growth for
the foreseeable future.
