Company Guidance
In the Q3 2024 earnings call for Redfin Corporation, the company reported a 3% year-over-year revenue increase to $278 million, positioning itself in the middle of the previously discussed range. However, the adjusted EBITDA was at the lower end, at $4 million, partly due to unexpected one-time expenses totaling $4 million. The guidance for the fourth quarter anticipates an adjusted EBITDA loss between $15 million and $22 million, resulting in a fiscal year loss larger than initially expected. Despite these challenges, Redfin is optimistic about 2025, with plans to boost advertising spending and further expand its Redfin Next program, which has already shown a 21% higher likelihood of customers buying a home in initial markets. The company expects gross margins to start increasing year-over-year in the fourth quarter. Additionally, Redfin noted a decline in third-quarter visitors by 4% year-over-year but is confident in future growth driven by increased ad spending and strategic investments in technology and agent bonuses to enhance service delivery.
