Costar Group, Inc.

Strong Revenue Growth: CoStar Group reported Q1 2025 revenue of $732 million, reflecting a 12% year-over-year increase. This marks the 56th consecutive quarter of double-digit revenue growth, exceeding consensus estimates and at the top of guidance ranges.

Substantial Profit Margins: The company's adjusted EBITDA for Q1 was $66 million, which represents a 429% increase year-over-year, resulting in a 9% profit margin. The commercial real estate and information marketplace businesses achieved a remarkable profit margin of 43%.

Challenges in Commercial Real Estate: Despite the positive financial performance, CoStar highlighted ongoing difficulties in the commercial real estate sector, including historically high vacancy rates of around 16% in investment-grade offices and significant declines in asking rents and sales prices. This challenging environment suggests potential headwinds for sustained growth, especially in the office and industrial segments.
