Publication Date: Nov -25

📋 Highlights
  • 37.7% Revenue Growth: Total revenue hit $115.3M, nearly doubling analyst expectations.
  • 3rd Consecutive Profitable Quarter: Adjusted EBITDA improved $7.4M to $6,000.
  • 24% Licensed Agents Increase: Agent count surpassed 15,300, driving 39% brokerage revenue growth.

  • Tech & Mortgage Momentum: Technology revenue rose 18%; Encompass Lending reported $160,000 adjusted EBITDA.

Segment Performance

The brokerage segment showed significant growth, driven by the addition of My Home Group and organic growth. The mortgage segment reported an increase in revenue and adjusted EBITDA, driven by higher funded loan volume and improved operating leverage. The title business, Verus Title, delivered 28.6% revenue growth, although profitability declined due to higher operating expenses. The technology segment posted an 18% increase in revenue and an improvement in adjusted EBITDA, driven by the addition of a new third-party licensing revenue stream.

Growth Initiatives and Outlook

Fathom continued to invest in growth initiatives, including the Elevate program, a concierge-level growth program designed to help agents increase productivity and earnings. The company also launched several new initiatives, such as the acquisition of START Real Estate, a firm dedicated to serving first-time homebuyers, and the expansion of the Real Results team, a lead generation and qualification program. Looking ahead to 2026, Fathom expects to drive further margin expansion and achieve operational cash flow breakeven by the second quarter of 2026, driven by diversified revenue streams, expanded flagship programs, and disciplined execution.

Valuation and Estimates

With a P/S Ratio of 0.1 and an EV/EBITDA of -3.22, the market appears to have tempered expectations for Fathom's growth. Analysts estimate revenue growth at 14.7% for the next year, which seems achievable given the company's historical performance and growth initiatives. However, the negative ROE of -53.65% and ROIC of -33.98% highlight the challenges Fathom still faces in achieving profitability. As the company continues to invest in growth initiatives and expand its offerings, investors will be watching closely to see if Fathom can achieve its goals and drive long-term value creation.
