Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Buy Opinion On Shares Of Costar Group, Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We decrease our 12-month target price by $10 to $43, valuing shares at 30.9x our 2026 non-GAAP EPS estimate vs. the one-year average multiple of 64.9x. We increase our 2026 adjusted EPS estimate by $0.12 to $1.39 and leave 2027 unchanged at $1.86. Homes.com platform revenue grew to $26M (+58% Y/Y) as it added 4,300 new members with an internal analysis revealing the average subscriber earned $36K more in commissions in their first year (an 11x ROI for agents). We believe this value proposition will drive additional agent subscriber growth with CSGP already planning to raise subscription prices later this year. One notable weakness was bookings growth slowing Q/Q to 20% Y/Y, but international bookings were up 44% Y/Y from a much smaller base. We anticipate bookings will accelerate Q/Q, with Q1 being a weaker quarter due to seasonality. We now expect the activist hedge funds to be supportive of CSGP with the Homes.com outlook improving and management reducing planned marketing spend.

Research Alert: Costar Group: Q1 Results In Line, Residential Ebitda Guidance Increases $20m

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:CSGP reported Q1 2026 revenue of $897M (+22.5% Y/Y, in line with consensus estimates) compared to $732M in Q1 2025, marking the company's 60th consecutive quarter of double-digit revenue growth. Management consolidated reporting into Commercial Real Estate (55% of FY 25 revenue, +15.4% Y/Y growth) and Residential Real Estate (45% of FY 25 revenue, +32.6% Y/Y growth) segments. The sustained growth trajectory demonstrates the durability of CoStar's market-leading position in commercial real estate information services. The company has benefited from improved market conditions and continued investment in AI-powered tools. Within Commercial, the core CoStar platform's growth moderated to 8.5% Y/Y, while LoopNet accelerated to 16.4% growth, reflecting improved commercial real estate market dynamics. We believe CSGP's competitive moat in CRE data services remains intact; as such, ongoing investments in AI-powered tools should continue to drive market share expansion and revenue growth across both business segments.
