DISCLAIMER

Discussion of Forward-Looking Statements about Newmark Statements in this document regarding Newmark that are not historical facts are “forward-looking statements” that involve risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, Newmark undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements. For a discussion of additional risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements, see Newmark’s Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including, but not limited to, the risk factors and Special Note on Forward-Looking Statements set forth in these filings and any updates to such risk factors and Special Note on Forward-Looking Statements contained in subsequent Forms 10-K, Forms 10-Q or Forms 8-K. Notes Regarding Financial Tables and Metrics Excel files with the Company’s most recent quarterly financial results and metrics from the current period are accessible in the financial results press release at the “Investor Relations” section of http://www.ngkf.com. They are also available directly at http://ir.ngkf.com/investors/news-releases/financial-and-corporate-releases/default.aspx. Other Items Newmark Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: NMRK) (“Newmark” or “the Company”) generally operates as “Newmark Knight Frank”, “Newmark”, “NKF”, or derivations of these names. The discussion of financial results reflects only those businesses owned by the Company and does not include the results for Knight Frank or for the independently-owned offices that use some variation of the Newmark name in their branding or marketing. For the purposes of this document, the terms “producer” and “front office employee” are synonymous. The average revenue per producer figures are based only on “leasing and other commissions”, “capital markets”, and “Gains from mortgage banking activities/origination, net” revenues and corresponding producers. The productivity figures exclude both revenues and staff in “management services, servicing fees and other.” Headcount numbers used in this calculation are based on a period average. Throughout this document, certain percentage changes are described as “NMF” or “not meaningful figure”. The Company calculates volumes based on when loans are rate locked, which is consistent with how revenues are recorded for “Gains from mortgage banking activities/origination, net”. The GSE multifamily agency volume statistics for the industry are based on when loans are sold and/or securitized, and typically lag those reported by Newmark by 30 to 45 days. Unless otherwise stated, all results discussed in this document compare second quarter 2019 with the relevant year-earlier periods. Certain reclassifications may have been made to previously reported amounts to conform to the current presentation and to show results on a consistent basis across periods. Any such changes would have had no impact on consolidated revenues or earnings under GAAP or for Adjusted Earnings, all else being equal. Certain numbers in the tables throughout this document may not sum due to

  • rounding. Rounding may have also impacted the presentation of certain year-on-year percentage changes. On November 30, 2018, BGC Partners, Inc. (NASDAQ: BGCP) ("BGC

Partners" or "BGC") completed the distribution of all of the shares of Newmark held by BGC to stockholders of BGC. BGC distributed these Newmark shares through a special pro rata stock dividend (the "Spin-Off" or the "Distribution"). For all periods prior to the Spin-Off, BGC was the largest and controlling shareholder of Newmark. As a result, BGC consolidated the results of Newmark and reported them as its Real Estate Services segment. These segment results may differ from those of Newmark as a stand-alone company. Results for the trailing-twelve-months (“TTM”) ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018 include other income related to the Nasdaq shares of $91.5 million and $79.3 million,

  • respectively. For additional information about Newmark’s expected receipt of Nasdaq shares and related monetization transactions, see the sections of the Company’s most recent

SEC filings on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K titled “Nasdaq Monetization Transactions” and “Exchangeable Preferred Partnership Units and Forward Contract”, as well as any updates regarding these topics in subsequent SEC filings. Liquidity Defined Newmark may also use a non-GAAP measure called “liquidity”. The Company considers liquidity to be comprised of the sum of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, and reverse repurchase agreements (if any), less securities lent out in securities loaned transactions and repurchase agreements. The Company considers liquidity to be an important metric for determining the amount of cash that is available or that could be readily available to the Company on short notice. For more information regarding liquidity, see the section of this document and/or the Company’s most recent financial results press release titled “Liquidity Analysis”, including any related footnotes, for details about how Newmark’s non-GAAP results are reconciled to those under GAAP.

DISCLAIMER (CONTINUED)

On September 8, 2017, BGC acquired Berkeley Point Financial LLC, including its wholly owned subsidiary Berkeley Point Capital LLC. These LLCs are now a direct and indirect subsidiary, respectively, of Newmark. Newmark’s financial results have been recast to include the results of Berkeley Point for all periods from April 10, 2014 onward, because this transaction involved a combination of entities under common control. Unless otherwise noted, all year-on-year comparisons in this document reflect the recast results. As of October 15, 2018, the businesses formerly operating as ARA, Berkeley Point, NKF Capital Markets, and Newmark Cornish & Carey all operate under the name “Newmark Knight Frank” or “NKF”. Newmark, Grubb & Ellis, ARA, Computerized Facility Integration, Excess Space Retail Services, Inc., and Berkeley Point are trademarks/service marks, and/or registered trademarks/service marks and/or service marks of Newmark Group, Inc. and/or its affiliates. Knight Frank is a service mark of Knight Frank (Nominees) Limited. Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA This presentation should be read in conjunction with Newmark’s most recent financial results press releases. Unless otherwise stated, throughout this document Newmark refers to its income statement results only on an Adjusted Earnings basis. Newmark may also refer to “Adjusted EBITDA”. U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles is referred to as “GAAP”. “GAAP income before income taxes and noncontrolling interests” and “Adjusted Earnings before noncontrolling interests and taxes” may be used interchangeably with “GAAP pre-tax earnings” and “pre-tax Adjusted Earnings”, respectively. See the sections of this document including “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”, “Adjusted Earnings Defined”, “Reconciliation of GAAP Income (Loss) To Adjusted Earnings and GAAP Fully Diluted EPS to Post-Tax Adjusted EPS”, “Fully Diluted Weighted-Average Share Count for GAAP and Adjusted Earnings”, “Adjusted EBITDA Defined”, and “Reconciliation of GAAP Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA”, including any footnotes to these sections, for the complete and updated definitions of these non-GAAP terms and how, when and why management uses them, as well as for the differences between results under GAAP and non-GAAP for the periods discussed herein. Newmark’s results under GAAP reflect the non-cash mark-to-market change of the Nasdaq Forwards, which hedge against potential downside risk from a decline in the share price

  • f Nasdaq’s common stock, while allowing Newmark to retain all the potential upside from any related share price appreciation. The value of the Nasdaq Forwards moves inversely

with the price of Nasdaq common stock. As a result, GAAP “other income (loss)” includes non-cash charges of $15.6 million and $2.8 million in the second quarters of 2019 and 2018, respectively, as well as $29.0 million and $2.8 million for the first halves of 2019 and 2018, respectively, related to these unrealized mark-to-market movements. Also included in other income (loss) under GAAP in 2019 are non-cash mark-to-market gains on non-marketable investments of $3.9 million. These non-cash items are not included in Newmark’s calculations for Adjusted Earnings or Adjusted EBITDA. A discussion of GAAP, Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliations of these items, as well as liquidity, to GAAP results are found later in this document, incorporated by reference, and also in our most recent financial results press release and/or are available at http://ir.ngkf.com/

18 The analysis on the preceding page is meant to show the hypothetical amount of cash the Company might have had available for corporate purposes as of 6/30/2019. The analysis is based on GAAP and non-GAAP figures, as noted below. Such figures can be found in Newmark’s SEC filings, in its financial results press releases, and/or in the Excel files that accompany such releases. Any non-GAAP figures are defined and reconciled with the directly comparable GAAP figures in such press releases and/or Excel files. All of these materials can be found at http://ir.ngkf.com/. (1) Adjusted EBITDA for TTM 6/30/2019 included pre-tax income of $91.5 million related to the Nasdaq earn-out. As of 8/1/2019, the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA outlook assumed that pre-tax income related to the Nasdaq earn-out would be approximately $83 million in 3Q2019. The Company has not updated its outlook since 8/1/2019. (2) Taken from the line item “Purchases of fixed assets” in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, which is identified as a cash outflow from investing. (3) The $42 million figure is taken from the line item “Interest (expense) income, net” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. GAAP interest includes non-cash deferred financing costs that would reduce the total by $2.1 million as well as a one-time prepayment penalty of $7 million on the $300 million debt repaid in 2018. Therefore, excluding these charges, the interest number would be $32.9 million. (4) Taken from the Adjusted Earnings line item “Provision for income taxes”. (5) Represents the cash available for investing or to fully diluted shareholders before dividends and distributions. (6) The figure is the sum of the line items "Earnings distributions to limited partnership interests and noncontrolling interests" and “Dividends to stockholders” in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. (7) Represents the cash generated and available for investing or to fully diluted shareholders after the payment of dividends and distributions based on Adjusted Earnings for the most recently available and relevant trailing four-quarter period. (8) The Company defines liquidity as the sum of cash and cash equivalents plus marketable securities that have not been financed, reverse repurchase agreements, and securities owned, less securities loaned and repurchase agreements. (9) This hypothetical analysis assumes the Company borrowed the undrawn amount remaining on its $250M revolving credit facility. (10) This represents the extra annualized interest rate had the $250M revolving credit facility been drawn down in its entirety. The borrowing rate is LIBOR + 200, and 1 month LIBOR as of 8/1/2019 was 244 basis points, giving an all-in rate of 424 basis points. (11) This analysis excludes approximately $484 million worth of additional Nasdaq payments expected from 2023 through 2027, which are not reflected on Newmark’s balance sheet because the shares are contingent upon Nasdaq generating at least $25 million in gross revenues

  • annually. Nasdaq generated gross revenues of approximately $4.3 billion in 2018. The Nasdaq price is as of the 8/1/2019 close.

Note: While not directly comparable, post-Tax Adjusted Earnings was $411 million for the same TTM period.

  • 1. FY 2012 based on revenues reported for BGC’s Real Estate Services segment. FY 2011 revenues are based on unaudited full year 2011 revenues for Newmark & Co. Berkeley

Point revenues from April, 2014 onwards are included because it was an entity under common control. The figure for organic revenue growth would be 57% if one excludes Berkeley Point.

  • 2. For 2018, the impact of FASB topic ASC 606 increased both NMRK’s revenues and non-compensation expenses related to its management services business by approximately

$86 million. There was no corresponding additional amount of expense or revenue recorded for any other period, as Newmark adopted the modified retrospective approach to ASC 606

› 56% of Newmark’s revenue growth since 2011 has been organic › Excluding Berkeley Point, companies acquired by Newmark have organically grown their revenues by an average of 24% since acquisition › Newmark has demonstrated the ability to successfully integrate acquisitions, proven by revenue growth and expanding margins

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP INCOME TO ADJUSTED EARNINGS AND GAAP FULLY DILUTED EPS TO POST-TAX ADJUSTED EPS(1) (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA) (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

(1) “Non-Recurring (Gains) Losses” were previously a separate line item, and now been reclassified to “Other non-cash, non-dilutive, non-economic items”. For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, these non-recurring expenses included contingent consideration and other expenses of $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, these non-recurring expenses included contingent consideration and other expenses of $0.8 million and $0.4 million, respectively. (2) Newmark’s GAAP provision (benefit) for income taxes is calculated based on an annualized methodology. Newmark’s GAAP provision (benefit) for income taxes was $9.1 million and $15.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. Newmark includes additional tax-deductible items when calculating the provision (benefit) for taxes with respect to Adjusted Earnings using an annualized methodology. These include tax-deductions related to equity-based compensation, and certain net-

  • perating loss carryforwards. The provision (benefit) for income taxes with respect to Adjusted Earnings was modified by $6.6 million and $9.2 million for the three and six

months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. As a result, the provision (benefit) for income taxes for Adjusted Earnings was $15.7 million and $25.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. Newmark’s GAAP provision (benefit) for income taxes was $10.8 million and $17.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The provision (benefit) for income taxes with respect to Adjusted Earnings was modified by $(0.5) million and $(0.1) million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. As a result, the provision (benefit) for income taxes for Adjusted Earnings was $10.3 million and $17.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. (3) Primarily represents Cantor and/or BGC’s pro-rata portion of Newmark's net income and the noncontrolling portion of Newmark’s net income in subsidiaries which are not wholly owned. (4) For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, GAAP expenses included $25.2 million and $2.3 million, respectively, in equity-based amortization, $2.6 million and $60.3 million, respectively, in exchangeability charges, and $11.6 million and $4.7 million, respectively, in allocations of net income to limited partnership units and FPUs. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, GAAP expenses included $32.1 million and $(6.1) million, respectively, in equity-based amortization, $3.2 million and $82.1 million, respectively, in exchangeability charges, and $17.9 million and $8.8 million, respectively, in allocations of net income to limited partnership units and FPUs. For tables summarizing these charges, please refer to the Excel supplement available for download on our website at http://ir.ngkf.com or the Management's Discussion and Analysis section of Newmark's 10-Q. (5) Includes Non-cash GAAP charges related to the amortization of intangibles with respect to acquisitions. (6) Adjusted Earnings calculations exclude non-cash GAAP gains attributable to originated mortgage servicing rights (which Newmark refers to as “OMSRs”) and non-cash GAAP amortization of mortgage servicing rights (which Newmark refers to as “MSRs”). Under GAAP, Newmark recognizes OMSRs gains equal to the fair value of servicing rights retained on mortgage loans originated and sold. Subsequent to the initial recognition at fair value, MSRs are carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value and amortized in proportion to the net servicing revenue expected to be earned. However, it is expected that any cash received with respect to these servicing rights, net of associated expenses, will increase Adjusted Earnings in future periods. (7) Includes $15.6 million and $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $29.0 million and $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, related to the impact of any unrealized non-cash mark-to-market losses in “other income (loss)” related to the variable share forward agreements with respect to Newmark’s expected receipt of the Nasdaq payments in 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022. Also includes $3.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 related to mark-to-market gains on non-marketable investments accounted for under the measurement alternative under ASU 2016-01. Includes a portion of non- compensation charges that are excluded for Adjusted Earnings. (8) Excludes the noncontrolling portion of Newmark's net income in subsidiaries which are not wholly owned. (9) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, earnings per share calculations under GAAP included reductions for EPUs of $3.2 million and $6.4 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, earnings per share calculations under GAAP included reductions for EPUs of $0.2 million. For Adjusted Earnings these non-cash preferred dividends are excluded as Newmark expects to redeem these EPUs with Nasdaq shares.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Non-GAAP Financial Measures This document contains non-GAAP financial measures that differ from the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company include “Adjusted Earnings before noncontrolling interests and taxes”, which is used interchangeably with “pre-tax Adjusted Earnings”; “Post-tax Adjusted Earnings to fully diluted shareholders”, which is used interchangeably with “post-tax Adjusted Earnings”; “Adjusted EBITDA”; and “Liquidity”. The definitions of these terms are below. Adjusted Earnings Defined Newmark uses non-GAAP financial measures, including “Adjusted Earnings before noncontrolling interests and taxes” and “Post-tax Adjusted Earnings to fully diluted shareholders”, which are supplemental measures of operating results used by management to evaluate the financial performance of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. Newmark believes that Adjusted Earnings best reflect the

  • perating earnings generated by the Company on a consolidated basis and are the earnings which management considers when

managing its business. As compared with “Income (loss) before income taxes and noncontrolling interests” and “Net income (loss) for fully diluted shares”, both prepared in accordance with GAAP, Adjusted Earnings calculations primarily exclude certain non-cash items and other expenses that generally do not involve the receipt or outlay of cash by the Company and/or which do not dilute existing stockholders. In addition, Adjusted Earnings calculations exclude certain gains and charges that management believes do not best reflect the ordinary results of Newmark. Adjusted Earnings is calculated by taking the most comparable GAAP measures and making adjustments for certain items with respect to compensation expenses, non-compensation expenses, and other income, as discussed below. Calculations of Compensation Adjustments for Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA The Company’s Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA measures exclude all GAAP charges included in the line item “Equity-based compensation and allocations of net income to limited partnership units and FPUs” (or “equity-based compensation” for purposes of defining the Company’s non-GAAP results) as recorded on the Company’s GAAP Consolidated Statements of Operations and GAAP Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. These GAAP equity-based compensation charges reflect the following items:

  • Charges with respect to grants of exchangeability, which reflect the right of holders of limited partnership units with no capital accounts,

such as LPUs and PSUs, to exchange these units into shares of common stock, or into partnership units with capital accounts, such as HDUs, as well as cash paid with respect to taxes withheld or expected to be owed by the unit holder upon such exchange. The withholding taxes related to the exchange of certain non-exchangeable units without a capital account into either common shares or units with a capital account may be funded by the redemption of preferred units such as PPSUs.

slide-47
SLIDE 47

47

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (CONTINUED)

  • Charges with respect to preferred units. Any preferred units would not be included in the Company’s fully diluted share count because

they cannot be made exchangeable into shares of common stock and are entitled only to a fixed distribution. Preferred units are granted in connection with the grant of certain limited partnership units that may be granted exchangeability at ratios designed to cover any withholding taxes expected to be paid by the unit holder upon exchange. This is an alternative to the common practice among public companies of issuing the gross amount of shares to employees, subject to cashless withholding of shares, to pay applicable withholding taxes.

  • GAAP equity-based compensation charges with respect to the grant of an offsetting amount of common stock or partnership units with

capital accounts in connection with the redemption of non-exchangeable units, including PSUs and LPUs.

  • Charges related to amortization of RSUs and limited partnership units.
  • Charges related to grants of equity awards, including common stock or partnership units with capital accounts.
  • Allocations of net income to limited partnership units and FPUs. Such allocations represent the pro-rata portion of post-tax GAAP

earnings available to such unit holders. The amount of certain quarterly equity-based compensation charges are based upon the Company’s estimate of such expected charges during the annual period, as described further below under “Methodology for Calculating Adjusted Earnings Taxes”. Virtually all of Newmark’s key executives and producers have equity or partnership stakes in the Company and its subsidiaries and generally receive deferred equity or limited partnership units as part of their compensation. A significant percentage of Newmark’s fully diluted shares are owned by its executives, partners and employees. The Company issues limited partnership units as well as other forms

  • f equity-based compensation, including grants of exchangeability into shares of common stock, to provide liquidity to its employees, to

align the interests of its employees and management with those of common stockholders, to help motivate and retain key employees, and to encourage a collaborative culture that drives cross-selling and revenue growth. All share equivalents that are part of the Company’s equity-based compensation program, including REUs, PSUs, LPUs, HDUs, and other units that may be made exchangeable into common stock, as well as RSUs (which are recorded using the treasury stock method), are included in the fully diluted share count when issued or at the beginning of the subsequent quarter after the date of grant. Generally, limited partnership units other than preferred units are expected to be paid a pro-rata distribution based on Newmark’s calculation of Adjusted Earnings per fully diluted share. Calculation of Non-Compensation Adjustments for Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA Newmark’s calculation of pre-tax Adjusted Earnings excludes non-cash GAAP charges related to the amortization of intangibles with respect to acquisitions.

slide-48
SLIDE 48

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (CONTINUED)

Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA calculations also exclude non-cash GAAP gains attributable to originated mortgage servicing rights (which Newmark refer to as “OMSRs”) and non-cash GAAP amortization of mortgage servicing rights (which Newmark refers to as “MSRs”). Under GAAP, the Company recognizes OMSRs gains equal to the fair value of servicing rights retained on mortgage loans originated and

  • sold. Subsequent to the initial recognition at fair value, MSRs are carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value and amortized in

proportion to the net servicing revenue expected to be earned. However, it is expected that any cash received with respect to these servicing rights, net of associated expenses, will increase Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA in future periods. Calculation of Other (income) losses for Adjusted Earnings Adjusted Earnings calculations also exclude certain other non-cash, non-dilutive, and/or non-economic items, which may, in some periods, include:

  • Unusual, one-time, non-ordinary or non-recurring gains or losses;
  • Non-cash GAAP asset impairment charges;
  • The impact of any unrealized non-cash mark-to-market gains or losses on “Other income (loss)” related to the variable share forward

agreements with respect to Newmark’s expected receipt of the Nasdaq payments in 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022 (the “Nasdaq Forwards”); and/or

  • Mark-to-market adjustments for non-marketable investments under ASU 2016-01;
  • Certain other non-cash, non-dilutive, and/or non-economic items.

Methodology for Calculating Adjusted Earnings Taxes Although Adjusted Earnings are calculated on a pre-tax basis, Newmark also reports post-tax Adjusted Earnings to fully diluted

  • shareholders. The Company defines post-tax Adjusted Earnings to fully diluted shareholders as pre-tax Adjusted Earnings reduced by the

non-GAAP tax provision described below and net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest for Adjusted Earnings. The Company calculates its tax provision for post-tax Adjusted Earnings using an annual estimate similar to how it accounts for its income tax provision under GAAP. To calculate the quarterly tax provision under GAAP, Newmark estimates its full fiscal year GAAP income (loss) before noncontrolling interests and taxes and the expected inclusions and deductions for income tax purposes, including expected equity- based compensation during the annual period. The resulting annualized tax rate is applied to Newmark’s quarterly GAAP income (loss) before income taxes and noncontrolling interests. At the end of the annual period, the Company updates its estimate to reflect the actual tax amounts owed for the period.

slide-49
SLIDE 49

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (CONTINUED)

To determine the non-GAAP tax provision, Newmark first adjusts pre-tax Adjusted Earnings by recognizing any, and only, amounts for which a tax deduction applies under applicable law. The amounts include charges with respect to equity-based compensation; certain charges related to employee loan forgiveness; certain net operating loss carryforwards when taken for statutory purposes; and certain charges related to tax goodwill amortization. These adjustments may also reflect timing and measurement differences, including treatment of employee loans; changes in the value of units between the dates of grants of exchangeability and the date of actual unit exchange; variations in the value of certain deferred tax assets; and liabilities and the different timing of permitted deductions for tax under GAAP and statutory tax requirements. After application of these adjustments, the result is the Company’s taxable income for its pre-tax Adjusted Earnings, to which Newmark then applies the statutory tax rates to determine its non-GAAP tax provision. Newmark views the effective tax rate on pre-tax Adjusted Earnings as equal to the amount of its non-GAAP tax provision divided by the amount of pre-tax Adjusted Earnings. Generally, the most significant factor affecting this non-GAAP tax provision is the amount of charges relating to equity-based compensation. Because the charges relating to equity-based compensation are deductible in accordance with applicable tax laws, increases in such charges have the effect of lowering the Company’s non-GAAP effective tax rate and thereby increasing its post-tax Adjusted Earnings. Newmark incurs income tax expenses based on the location, legal structure and jurisdictional taxing authorities of each of its subsidiaries. Certain of the Company’s entities are taxed as U.S. partnerships and are subject to the Unincorporated Business Tax (“UBT”) in New York

  • City. Any U.S. federal and state income tax liability or benefit related to the partnership income or loss, with the exception of UBT, rests with

the unit holders rather than with the partnership entity. The Company’s consolidated financial statements include U.S. federal, state and local income taxes on the Company’s allocable share of the U.S. results of operations. Outside of the U.S., Newmark is expected to operate principally through subsidiary corporations subject to local income taxes. For these reasons, taxes for Adjusted Earnings are expected to be presented to show the tax provision the consolidated Company would expect to pay if 100% of earnings were taxed at global corporate rates. Calculations of Pre- and Post-Tax Adjusted Earnings per Share Newmark’s pre- and post-tax Adjusted Earnings per share calculations assume either that:

  • The fully diluted share count includes the shares related to any dilutive instruments, but excludes the associated expense, net of tax, when

the impact would be dilutive; or

  • The fully diluted share count excludes the shares related to these instruments, but includes the associated expense, net of tax.

The share count for Adjusted Earnings excludes certain shares and share equivalents expected to be issued in future periods but not yet eligible to receive dividends and/or distributions. Each quarter, the dividend payable to Newmark’s stockholders, if any, is expected to be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors with reference to a number of factors, including post-tax Adjusted Earnings per share.

slide-50
SLIDE 50

50

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (CONTINUED)

Newmark may also pay a pro-rata distribution of net income to limited partnership units, as well as to Cantor for its noncontrolling interest. The amount of this net income, and therefore of these payments per unit, would be determined using the above definition of Adjusted Earnings per share on a pre-tax basis. The declaration, payment, timing and amount of any future dividends payable by the Company will be at the discretion of its Board of Directors using the fully diluted share count. In addition, the non-cash preferred dividends are excluded from Adjusted Earnings per share as Newmark expects to redeem the related exchangeable preferred limited partnership units (“EPUs”) with Nasdaq shares. For more information on any share count adjustments, see the table titled “Fully Diluted Weighted-Average Share Count for GAAP and Adjusted Earnings”. Management Rationale for Using Adjusted Earnings Newmark’s calculation of Adjusted Earnings excludes the items discussed above because the Company views doing so as a better reflection of Newmark’s ongoing operations. Management uses Adjusted Earnings in part to help it evaluate, among other things, the overall performance of the Company’s business, to make decisions with respect to the Company’s operations, and to determine the amount of dividends payable to common stockholders and distributions payable to holders of limited partnership units. Dividends payable to common stockholders and distributions payable to holders of limited partnership units are included within “Distributions to stockholders” and “Earnings distributions to limited partnership interests and noncontrolling interests,” respectively, in our unaudited, condensed, consolidated statements

  • f cash flows.

The term “Adjusted Earnings” should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to GAAP net income (loss). The Company views Adjusted Earnings as a metric that is not indicative of liquidity, or the cash available to fund its operations, but rather as a performance

  • measure. Pre- and post-tax Adjusted Earnings, as well as related measures, are not intended to replace the Company’s presentation of its

GAAP financial results. However, management believes that these measures help provide investors with a clearer understanding of Newmark’s financial performance and offer useful information to both management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends related to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Management believes that the GAAP and Adjusted Earnings measures of financial performance should be considered together. For more information regarding Adjusted Earnings, see the sections of this document and/or the Company’s most recent financial results press release titled “Reconciliation of GAAP Income to Adjusted Earnings and GAAP Fully Diluted EPS to Post-tax Adjusted EPS”, including the related footnotes, for details about how Newmark’s non-GAAP results are reconciled to those under GAAP.

SLIDE 51

51

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (CONTINUED)

Adjusted EBITDA Defined Newmark also provides an additional non-GAAP financial performance measure, “Adjusted EBITDA”, which it defines as GAAP “Net income (loss) available to common stockholders”, adjusted to add back the following items:

  • Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest;
  • Provision (benefit) for income taxes;
  • OMSR revenue;
  • MSR amortization;
  • Other depreciation and amortization;
  • Equity-based compensation and allocations of net income to limited partnership units and FPUs;
  • Other non-cash, non-dilutive, and/or non-economic items, which may, in certain periods, include the impact of any unrealized non-cash

mark-to-market gains or losses on “other income (loss)” related to the variable share forward agreements with respect to Newmark’s expected receipt of the Nasdaq payments in 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022 (the “Nasdaq Forwards”), as well as mark-to-market adjustments for non-marketable investments under ASU 2016-01; and

  • Interest expense.

The Company’s management believes that its Adjusted EBITDA measure is useful in evaluating Newmark’s operating performance, because the calculation of this measure generally eliminates the effects of financing and income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending and acquisitions, which would include impairment charges of goodwill and intangibles created from acquisitions. Such items may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. As a result, the Company’s management uses this measure to evaluate operating performance and for other discretionary purposes. Newmark believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors to assist them in getting a more complete picture of the Company’s financial results and operations. Since Newmark’s Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized measurement under GAAP, investors should use this measure in addition to GAAP measures of net income when analyzing Newmark’s operating performance. Because not all companies use identical EBITDA calculations, the Company’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Furthermore, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow or GAAP cash flow from operations because the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA does not consider certain cash requirements, such as tax and debt service payments. For more information regarding Adjusted EBITDA, see the section of this document and/or the Company’s most recent financial results press release titled “Reconciliation of GAAP Income to Adjusted EBITDA”, including the related footnotes, for details about how Newmark’s non-GAAP results are reconciled to those under GAAP EPS.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (CONTINUED)

Timing of Outlook for Certain GAAP and Non-GAAP Items Newmark anticipates providing forward-looking guidance for GAAP revenues and for certain non-GAAP measures from time to time. However, the Company does not anticipate providing an outlook for other GAAP results. This is because certain GAAP items, which are excluded from Adjusted Earnings and/or Adjusted EBITDA, are difficult to forecast with precision before the end of each period. The Company therefore believes that it is not possible for it to have the required information necessary to forecast GAAP results or to quantitatively reconcile GAAP forecasts to non-GAAP forecasts with sufficient precision without unreasonable efforts. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. The relevant items that are difficult to predict on a quarterly and/or annual basis with precision and may materially impact the Company’s GAAP results include, but are not limited, to the following:

  • Certain equity-based compensation charges that may be determined at the discretion of management throughout and up to the period-

end;

  • Unusual, one-time, non-ordinary, or non-recurring items;
  • The impact of gains or losses on certain marketable securities, as well as any gains or losses related to associated mark-to- market

movements and/or hedging including with respect to the Nasdaq Forwards. These items are calculated using period-end closing prices;

  • Non-cash asset impairment charges, which are calculated and analyzed based on the period-end values of the underlying assets. These

amounts may not be known until after period-end;

  • Acquisitions, dispositions and/or resolutions of litigation, which are fluid and unpredictable in nature.

Liquidity Defined Newmark may also use a non-GAAP measure called “liquidity”. The Company considers liquidity to be comprised of the sum of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, and reverse repurchase agreements (if any), less securities lent out in securities loaned transactions and repurchase agreements. The Company considers liquidity to be an important metric for determining the amount of cash that is available or that could be readily available to the Company on short notice. For more information regarding liquidity, see the section of this document and/or the Company’s most recent financial results press release titled “Liquidity Analysis”, including any related footnotes, for details about how Newmark’s non-GAAP results are reconciled to those under GAAP.
