AGNT Profit Turns to Loss as Growth Cools

Third-quarter revenue rose 6% to $1.4 billion, slower than the 11% pace in the second quarter, as the company posted a $4.3 million net loss.

AGNT, Inc. (AGNT), the holding company for eXp Realty, NextHome, FrameVR.io and SUCCESS Enterprises, reported third-quarter revenue of $1.4 billion, a 6% increase from $1.3 billion a year earlier. That pace was slower than the 11% year-over-year rise to $1.4 billion the company posted in the second quarter.

The real-estate brokerage platform swung to a net loss of $4.3 million, or $0.03 a share, from net income of $3.5 million, or $0.02 a share, a year earlier.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-U.S. GAAP measure, fell 3% to $17.1 million from $17.7 million, reversing the 129% increase to $25.7 million recorded in the second quarter.

Chief Executive Officer Leo Pareja said the results reflected a business with more agents and more productive agents than a year ago. Chief Financial Officer Jesse Hill said the company grew the top line in a housing market that remains challenging.

The global agent Net Promoter Score was 67, compared with 75 in the prior-year period.

International remained the fastest-growing segment, with revenue up 27%, Hill said, adding that the company continued progress toward profitability as it scaled.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $111.4 million as of September 30, 2026, compared with $112.8 million a year earlier. Net cash provided by operating activities was $18.2 million, compared with $28.9 million a year earlier. Adjusted operating cash flow was $41.5 million, compared with $45.4 million a year earlier.
