Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The SEC has adopted rules to regulate the use i n filings with the SEC and in public disclosures of financi al measures that are not i n accordance with U.S. GAAP, such as Adjusted EBITDAand the rati os rel ated thereto, Adjus ted net income, Adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share (Adjusted EPS) and Free cash flow. These measures are derived on the basis ofmethodologies other than in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The Com pany calculates Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA (consolidated net incom e before depreciation and amortization, i nter est expense, i nteres t income and the provision for income taxes ,each of w hich is presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial s tatements i ncluded in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q), adjusted for the impact of the following items thatare either non-cash or the Company does not consider representative of its ongoing operating performance: l oss or gain on sale or dispositi on of assets and sublease, loss on earlyextinguishment of debt, professional fees and certain expenses incurred in connection with the Secondary Offering, acquisition-related expenses and equity-based compensation expense.

Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue.

During the first quarter of 2017, the Com pany revised its definitions of Adjus ted EBITDA and Adjus ted EBITDA m argin to better r eflect the performance of the business and comply with SECguidance. The Com pany now adjusts for equity- based compensation expense and no longer adjusts for strai ght-line rent expense and severance-related expenses. Adjus ted EBITDA andAdjusted EBITDA margin were revised in prior periods to reflect this change for consistency in presentation.

Because Adjusted EBITDA and Adjus ted EBITDA m argin omit certain non-cash items and other non-recurring cash char ges or other items, the Company believes that each measur e is l esssusceptible to variances that affect its operating performance resulting from depreciation, amortization and other non-cash and non-recurring cash charges or other items. The Com panypresents Adjus ted EBITDA and the rel ated Adjus ted EBITDA margi n because the Com pany believes they are useful as supplemental measures in evaluating the performance of its oper atingbusinesses and provi des greater transparency into the C ompany’s results of oper ations. The Company’s management uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margi n as factors inevaluating the performance of the business.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA mar gin have limitati ons as analytical tools, and you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analyzing the C ompany’sresults as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

• these measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company’s working capital needs;• these measures do not reflect the Company’s interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on its debt;• these measures do not reflect the Company’s income tax expense or the cash requirements to pay its taxes;• these measures do not refl ect the cash requirements to pay dividends to stockhol ders of the Company’s Class A common stock and tax and other cash distributions to its non-controlling

unitholders;• these measures do not reflect the cash requirements to pay RIHI Inc. and Oberndorf pursuant to the tax receivable agreements;• although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depr eciated and amortized will often require replacement in the future, and these m easures do not reflect

any cash requirements for such replacements;• although equity-based compensation is a non-cash charge, the issuance of equity-based awards may have a dilutive impact on earnings per share; and• other companies may calculate these measures differently so similarly named measures may not be comparable.

The C ompany’s Adjusted EBITDA margin guidance does not include certain charges and cos ts. The adjustments to EBITDA margin in future periods are generally expected to be similar tothe kinds of charges and costs excluded from Adj usted EBITDA margin i n prior quarters, such as gain on sale or dispositi on of assets and sublease and acquisition related expenses , am ongothers. The excl usion of these char ges and costs in future periods will have a significant impact on the Company’s Adjus ted EBITDA margin. The C ompany is not able to provide areconciliation of the Company’s Non-GAAP financi al guidance to the corresponding U.S. GAAP measures without unr easonable effort because of the uncertainty and variability of the natur eand amount of these future charges and costs.

Adjusted net income is calcul ated as Net income attributable to RE/MAX Hol dings , assuming the full exchange of all outstandi ng non-controlling interests for shares of Class A commonstock as of the beginning of the period (and the related increase to the provision for income taxes after such exchange), plus primarily non-cash items and other items that management doesnot consider to be useful in assessing the Company’s operating performance (e.g., amortizati on of acquired intangi ble assets, gain on sale or disposition of assets and sub-lease, loss onearly debt extinguishment, public-offering related expenses, acquisition-related expenses and equity-based compensation expense).

Adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share (Adjusted EPS) are calculated as Adjus ted net income ( as defi ned above) divided by pro forma (assuming the full exchange of alloutstanding non-controlling interests) basic and diluted weighted average shares, as applicable.

When used in conjunc tion with GAAP financial m easures, Adjus ted net i ncome and Adjus ted EPS are supplemental measur es of operating performance that management believes ar euseful measures to evaluate the Company’s performance relative to the performance of its competitors as w ell as performance period over period. By assuming the full exchange of alloutstanding non-controlling interests, management believes these measures:

• facilitate comparisons with other companies that do not have a low effective tax rate driven by a non-controlling interest on a pass-through entity;• facilitate period over period comparisons because they eliminate the effect of changes i n Net income attributable to R E/MAX H oldings, Inc. driven by increases i n its ownership of RMCO,

LLC, which are unrelated to the Company’s operating performance; and• eliminate primarily non-cash and other items that management does not consider to be useful in assessing the Company’s operating performance.

Free cash flow is calculated as cash flows from operati ons less capital expenditures , both as reported under GAAP, and quantifies how much cash a company has to pursue opportuniti esthat enhance shareholder val ue. The Com pany believes free cash fl ow is useful to inves tors as a supplem ental measure as it calcul ates the cash flow availabl e for working capital needs, re-investment opportunities, potential independent region and strategic acquisitions, dividend payments or other strategic uses of cash.

Free cash flow after tax and non-dividend distributions to RIHI is calcul ated as free cash fl ow less tax and other non-dividend distributions paid to RIHI (the non-controlling interes tholder) to enabl e RIHI to satisfy its i ncome tax obligations. Similar payments would be made by the C ompany directly to feder al and s tate taxing authorities as a component of the C ompany’sconsolidated pr ovision for income taxes if a full exchange of non-controlling interests occurred in the future. As a result and given the significance of the C ompany’s ongoing tax and non-dividend distribution obligations to its non-controlling interest, free cash flow after tax and non-dividend distributions, when used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures , provides ameaningful view of cash flow available to the Company to pursue opportunities that enhance shareholder value.

Unencumbered cash generated is calculated as free cash flow after tax and non-dividend distributions to RIHI l ess quarterly debt principal payments less annual excess cash fl ow paymenton debt, as applicabl e. Given the significance of the Company’s excess cash flow payment on debt, when applicable, unencum bered cash generated, when used in conjunction with GAAPfinancial measur es, provides a meaningful view of the cash flow available to the Company to pursue opportunities that enhance shareholder value after considering its debt serviceobligations.
