FIRST QUARTER 2023 FINANCIAL RESULTS

MADISON, N.J. (May 3, 2023) - Anywhere Real Estate Inc. (NYSE: HOUS) ("Anywhere" or the "Company"), a global leader in residential real estate services, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

"Anywhere navigated a tough housing market in the quarter and charged ahead to make meaningful progress on our strategic priorities," said Ryan Schneider, Anywhere president and CEO. "Anywhere continues to set our business up for greater growth when the market rebounds, permanently streamline our cost base as we operate differently, and reimagine the agent and customer experience. We are seizing the moment to position Anywhere to capture the benefits of a better environment and lead into the future."

"In the first quarter, we remained focused on what we can control and on our relentless commitment to execution," said Charlotte Simonelli, Anywhere executive vice president, chief financial officer, and treasurer. "This includes our $200 million full year cost savings program and ongoing operational efficiencies, combined with strategic innovation and industry leadership will set our business up to drive results and emerge from this market even stronger."

First Quarter 2023 Highlights

•Generated Revenue of $1.1 billion, a decrease of 31% year-over-year, largely impacted by homesale transaction volume declines of 31% and the sale of the Title Insurance Underwriter.

•Reported a Net loss of $138 million and Adjusted net loss of $106 million.

•Operating EBITDA loss of $52 million, a decrease of $121 million year-over-year (See Table 5).

•Realized cost savings of approximately $50 million in the first quarter and are on track to deliver $200 million for the full year.

•Free Cash Flow of negative $120 million vs. negative $275 million for the corresponding quarter last year, with the first quarter being a seasonal use quarter for the business (See Table 7).

•At March 31, 2023, the Company's Senior Secured Leverage Ratio was 1.00x (See Table 8a) and Net Debt Leverage Ratio was 5.3x (See Table 8b).

•Anywhere continues to be recognized as an employer of choice for leadership in innovation, diversity, and integrity, recently named one of Fortune's Most Innovative Companies, a Forbes Best Employer for Diversity, and one of the World's Most Ethical Companies for the twelfth consecutive year.

2023 Financial Estimates

Looking ahead to the second quarter of 2023, the Company expects our second quarter 2023 transaction volume to be down around 25% versus prior year.

Consistent with industry forecasts, we still expect quarterly transaction volume comparisons to 2022 to improve throughout 2023, but expect full year 2023 transaction volumes to decline about 15-20% year-over-year. Driven by these projected volume declines, the Company continues to expect full year 2023 Operating EBITDA to be below 2022. However, the Company still expects Free Cash Flow from operations to be modestly positive.

The Company continues to expect to realize cost savings of approximately $200 million in 2023, inclusive of the cost savings realized in first quarter 2023.

These estimates are subject to, among other things, macroeconomic and housing market uncertainties, including those related to rising inflation and mortgage rates, declining affordability and constrained inventory as well as competitive, litigation and regulatory uncertainties.

Balance Sheet

The Company ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $122 million. Total corporate debt, including the short-term portion, net of cash and cash equivalents (net corporate debt), totaled $2.8 billion at March 31, 2023. The Company's Net Debt Leverage Ratio was 5.3x at March 31, 2023 (see Table 8b).

As of May 1, 2023 the Company had $430 million outstanding borrowings under its Revolving Credit Facility.

A consolidated balance sheet is included as Table 2 of this press release.

Restructuring charges incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2022 include $1 million at Franchise Group, $2 million at Owned Brokerage Group and $1 million at Corporate and Other.

(b)Impairments primarily relate to non-cash lease asset impairments.

(c)Former parent legacy items and Loss on the early extinguishment of debt are recorded in Corporate and Other. Former parent legacy cost relates to recent developments in a legacy tax matter in the first quarter of 2023.

(d)Gain on the sale of businesses, investments or other assets, net is recorded in Title Group and related to the sale of a portion of the Company's ownership in the Title Insurance Underwriter Joint Venture during the first quarter of 2023 and the sale of the Title Underwriter during the first quarter of 2022.

(e)Revenues include the elimination of transactions between segments, which consists of intercompany royalties and marketing fees paid by Owned Brokerage Group of $63 million and $86 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and are eliminated through the Corporate and Other line.

(f)Title Group includes our title, escrow and settlement services (title agency) businesses, our minority-owned mortgage origination joint venture and our minority-owned Title Insurance Underwriter Joint Venture. The sale of the Title Underwriter late in the first quarter of 2022 resulted in declines of $80 million in underwriter revenue and $6 million in Operating EBITDA in the first quarter of 2023 as compared to the first quarter of 2022, with $1 million of equity in earnings attributable to the Title Insurance Underwriter Joint Venture partially offsetting the decline in earnings. The Operating EBITDA contribution from our mortgage origination joint venture improved $6 million from $8 million of losses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 to $2 million of losses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023.

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION - SENIOR SECURED LEVERAGE RATIO

FOR THE FOUR-QUARTER PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 2023

(In millions)

The senior secured leverage ratio is tested quarterly pursuant to the terms of the senior secured credit facilities*. For the trailing four-quarter period ended March 31, 2023, Anywhere Real Estate Group LLC ("Anywhere Group") was required to maintain a senior secured leverage ratio not to exceed 4.75 to 1.00. The senior secured leverage ratio is measured by dividing Anywhere Group's total senior secured net debt by the trailing four-quarter EBITDA calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, as those terms are defined in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement. Total senior secured net debt does not include our unsecured indebtedness, including the Unsecured Notes* and Exchangeable Senior Notes*, or the securitization obligations. EBITDA calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement, includes the bank adjustments set forth below. The Company was in compliance with the senior secured leverage ratio covenant at March 31, 2023 with a ratio of 1.00x to 1.00.

A reconciliation of net loss attributable to Anywhere Group to EBITDA calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, as those terms are defined in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement, for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2023 is set forth in the following table:

_______________

(a)Net loss attributable to Anywhere Group consists of: (i) income of $88 million for the second quarter of 2022, (ii) income of $55 million for the third quarter of 2022, (iii) loss of $453 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 and (iv) loss of $138 million for the first quarter of 2023.

(b)Represents the four-quarter pro forma effect of business optimization initiatives as if these initiatives had occurred at the beginning of the trailing twelve-month period.

(c)Represents non-cash long term incentive compensation charges, other non-cash charges and extraordinary, nonrecurring or unusual litigation charges.

(d)Represents the estimated impact of acquisitions and franchise sales activity, net of brokerages that exited our franchise system, as if these changes had occurred at the beginning of the trailing twelve-month period. Franchisee sales activity is comprised of new franchise agreements as well as growth through acquisitions and independent sales agent recruitment by existing franchisees with our assistance. We have made a number of assumptions in calculating such estimates and there can be no assurance that we would have generated the projected levels of Operating EBITDA had we owned the acquired entities or entered into the franchise contracts as of the beginning of the trailing twelve-month period.

(e)Incremental borrowing costs incurred as a result of the securitization facilities refinancing for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2023.

(f)Represents total borrowings secured by a first priority lien on our assets of $599 million under the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan A Facility plus $23 million of finance lease obligations less $97 million of readily available cash as of March 31, 2023. Pursuant to the terms of our senior secured credit facilities, total senior secured net debt does not include our securitization obligations or unsecured indebtedness, including the Unsecured Notes and Exchangeable Senior Notes.

* Our senior secured credit facilities include the facilities under our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of March 5, 2013, as amended from time to time (the "Senior Secured Credit Agreement"), and the Term Loan A Agreement dated as of October 23, 2015 (the "Term Loan A Agreement"), as amended from time to time. Our Unsecured Notes include our 5.75% Senior Notes due 2029 and 5.25% Senior Notes due 2030. Exchangeable Senior Notes refers to our 0.25% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2026.

Table 9

Non-GAAP Definitions

Adjusted net income (loss) is defined by us as net income (loss) before: (a) mark-to-market interest rate swap adjustments, whose fair value is subject to movements in LIBOR and the forward yield curve and therefore were subject to significant fluctuations (remaining interest rate swaps expired in November 2022); (b) former parent legacy items, which pertain to liabilities of the former parent for matters prior to mid-2006 and are non-operational in nature; (c) restructuring charges as a result of initiatives currently in progress; (d) impairments; (e) the (gain) loss on the early extinguishment of debt that results from refinancing and deleveraging debt initiatives; (f) the (gain) loss on the sale of businesses, investments or other assets and (g) the tax effect of the foregoing adjustments. We present Adjusted net income (loss) because we believe this measure is useful as a supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of our operating businesses and provide greater transparency into our operating results.

Operating EBITDA is defined by us as net income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net (other than relocation services interest for securitization assets and securitization obligations), income taxes, and other items that are not core to the operating activities of the Company such as restructuring charges, former parent legacy items, gains or losses on the early extinguishment of debt, impairments, gains or losses on discontinued operations and gains or losses on the sale of businesses, investments or other assets. Operating EBITDA is our primary non-GAAP measure.

We present Operating EBITDA because we believe it is useful as a supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of our operating businesses and provides greater transparency into our results of operations. Our management, including our chief operating decision maker, uses Operating EBITDA as a factor in evaluating the performance of our business. Operating EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or other statement of operations data prepared in accordance with GAAP.

We believe Operating EBITDA facilitates company-to-company operating performance comparisons by backing out potential differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting net interest expense), taxation, the age and book depreciation of facilities (affecting relative depreciation expense) and the amortization of intangibles, as well as other items that are not core to the operating activities of the Company such as restructuring charges, gains or losses on the early extinguishment of debt, former parent legacy items, impairments, gains or losses on discontinued operations and gains or losses on the sale of businesses, investments or other assets, which may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to operating performance. We further believe that Operating EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies, many of which present an Operating EBITDA measure when reporting their results.

Operating EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider Operating EBITDA either in isolation or as a substitute for analyzing our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

•this measure does not reflect changes in, or cash required for, our working capital needs;

•this measure does not reflect our interest expense (except for interest related to our securitization obligations), or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;

•this measure does not reflect our income tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes;

•this measure does not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

•although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often require replacement in the future, and this measure does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and

•other companies may calculate this measure differently so they may not be comparable.

Free Cash Flow is defined as net income (loss) attributable to Anywhere before income tax expense (benefit), income tax payments, interest expense, net, cash interest payments, depreciation and amortization, capital expenditures, restructuring costs and former parent legacy costs (benefits), net of payments, impairments, (gain) loss on the sale of businesses, investments or other assets, (gain) loss on the early extinguishment of debt, working capital adjustments and relocation receivables (assets), net of change in securitization obligations. We use Free Cash Flow in our internal evaluation of operating effectiveness and decisions regarding the allocation of resources, as well as measuring the Company's ability to generate cash. Since Free Cash Flow can be viewed as both a performance measure and a cash flow measure, the Company has provided a reconciliation to both net income attributable to Anywhere and net cash provided by operating activities. Free Cash Flow is not defined by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income (loss), net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing and financing activities or other financial data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of the

Anywhere Reports Financial Results for First Quarter 2023 21

Company’s operating performance or liquidity. Free Cash Flow may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
