We are particularly pleased with our results over pre-pandemic levels, with second quarter and first half revenues up 36% and 27%, respectively over the same periods in 2019. Our sales forces’ unique ability to solve problems for clients and navigate last year’s challenging environment, then rapidly pivot to helping them pursue investment and financing opportunities as conditions improved, reinforce the power of our value-added services. Contributions from recent acquisitions, the addition of several top-level brokers and teams, expansion of our MMCC financing division, ongoing investments in proprietary technology and elevated investor outreach from the onset of the pandemic were key drivers of the record quarter,” commented Hessam Nadji, Marcus & Millichap’s President and CEO.

Mr. Nadji continued, “Looking forward, we are capitalizing on the strong operating environment with historically low interest rates, ample liquidity, release of pent-up demand and increasing confidence in the economic recovery. As investors reshape portfolios, shift market preferences and position themselves in the post-pandemic cycle, our research and advisory services, technology-enabled delivery system and experts on the ground are executing on their behalf. We are further building on our recent strategic acquisitions and ongoing investments in the Company’s brokerage systems, training, development and human capital all of which is supported by our strong balance sheet and leading market position.”

Second Quarter 2021 Results Compared to Second Quarter 2020

Total revenues for the second quarter of 2021 were $284.9 million, compared to $117.4 million for the same period in the prior year, increasing 142.7%. The increase in total revenues was driven by increases in real estate brokerage commissions, financing fees and other revenues. Real estate brokerage commissions increased more than twofold to $252.9 million from the same period in the prior year primarily due to an increase in overall sales volume generated by the increase in the number of investment sales transactions. This was partially offset by a reduction in average commission rates due to a larger proportion of closed transactions from the Larger Transaction Market segment. Financing fees more than doubled to $28.2 million.

Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2021 increased 102.8% to $243.3 million, compared to $120.0 million for the same period in the prior year. The change was primarily driven by a 142.2% increase in cost of services and a 42.0% increase in selling, general and administrative expense. Cost of services as a percent of total revenues decreased 10 basis points to 62.7% compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a higher proportion of transactions closed by our more senior investment sales and financing professionals at the start of the pandemic during the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Selling, general and administrative expense for the second quarter of 2021 increased by $18.3 million to $61.8 million, compared to the same period in the prior year. The growth was primarily due to increases in (i) compensation related costs, primarily driven by increases in management performance compensation due to a significant year-over-year increase in operating results; (ii) change in value of contingent consideration in connection with our acquisition activities; and (iii) business development, marketing and other support related to the long-term retention of our sales and financing professionals.

Net income for the second quarter of 2021 was $31.5 million, or $0.79 per common share, basic and $0.78 per common share, diluted, compared to $106,000, or $0.00 per common share, basic and diluted, for the same period in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2021 was $48.1 million, compared to $4.2 million for the same period in the prior year.

Six Months 2021 Results Compared to Six Months 2020

Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021, were $468.9 million, compared to $308.1 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $160.8 million, or 52.2%. Total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased by 39.9% to $407.1 million compared to $291.1 million for the same period in the prior year. Cost of services as a percent of total revenues increased to 61.4%, up 50 basis points compared to the first six months of 2020. The Company’s net income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 of $46.5 million, or $1.17 per common share, basic and $1.16 per common share, diluted, compared with net income of $13.2 million, or $0.33 per common share, basic and diluted, for the same period in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased nearly threefold to $73.8 million, from $26.5 million for the same period in the prior year. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had 2,022 investment sales and financing professionals, a net loss of 26 over the prior year.

Business Outlook

Notwithstanding the potential continuing impact of the COVID-19 virus variants on the current business environment, the Company believes it is positioned to achieve long-term growth.

The Company benefits from its experienced management team, infrastructure investments, industry-leading market research and proprietary technology. The size and fragmentation of the Private Client Market segment continues to offer long-term growth opportunities through consolidation. This market segment consistently accounts for over 80% of all commercial property sales transactions and over 60% of the commission pool and is highly fragmented. The top 10 brokerage firms led by MMI have an estimated 23% share of this segment by transaction count.

Key factors that may influence the Company’s business during the remainder of 2021 include:

•

Volatility in market sales and investor sentiment driven by:

•

Slowdown in market sales of asset types impacted by COVID-19, interest rate fluctuations, increasing bid-ask spread between buyers and sellers and economic trends

•

Changes to investor sentiment and sales activity based on favorable interest rates and economic initiatives which may increase real estate investor demand, for the remainder of 2021

•

Possible impact to investor sentiment related to regulatory and tax law changes which maybe causing trading acceleration and/or future fluctuations in sales and financing activity

•

Potential higher cost of services resulting from more experienced investment sales and financing professionals closing a larger share of revenue and surpassing revenue thresholds earlier in the year

•

Volatility in each of the Company’s market segments

•

Global geopolitical uncertainty, which may cause investors to refrain from transacting

•

The potential for accretive acquisition activity and subsequent integration

Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation

Adjusted EBITDA, which the Company defines as net income before (i) interest income and other, including net realized gains (losses) on marketable debt securities, available-for-sale and cash and cash equivalents, (ii) interest expense, (iii) provision for income taxes, (iv) depreciation and amortization, (v) stock-based compensation, and (vi) non-cash mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) activity. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA in its business operations to evaluate the performance of its business, develop budgets and measure its performance against those budgets, among other things. The Company also believes that analysts and investors use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to evaluate its overall operating performance. However, Adjusted EBITDA has material limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company finds Adjusted EBITDA to be a useful tool to assist in evaluating performance, because Adjusted EBITDA eliminates items related to capital structure, taxes and non-cash items. In light of the foregoing limitations, the Company does not rely solely on Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure and also considers its U.S. GAAP results. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of the Company’s financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Because Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated in the same manner by all companies, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.

A reconciliation of the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, net income, to Adjusted EBITDA is as follows (in thousands):
