AGNT, Inc. to Announce Second Quarter 2026 Results on August 4, 2026 Management to discuss second quarter 2026 results and host investor Q&A at virtual event
BELLINGHAM, Wash., March 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- eXp Realty®, “the most agent-centric™ real estate brokerage on the planet” and the core subsidiary of eXp World Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXPI), today announced real estate leader Miriam Valencia, founder and CEO of Alumbra International, has officially joined eXp Realty, bringing 50 agents with her in a strategic move designed to support the continued growth of her Houston-based and international-growing brokerage.
“Miriam is the embodiment of the entrepreneurial spirit we champion at eXp,” said Leo Pareja, CEO of eXp Realty. “With Alumbra, Miriam’s already proven she can build something deeply meaningful. By joining forces with our global platform, she’s not just preserving that identity, she’s supercharging it to create limitless opportunities for her agents and their clients.”
Valencia spent significant time evaluating brokerage models before making the decision.
“I built Alumbra as an independent brokerage and grew a strong brand and culture in Houston,” Valencia said. “At the same time, I started thinking about how to scale bigger without losing what we had built. As a broker I cannot make rash decisions because it affects a lot of people,” she said. “I spent time looking at different brokerage models and asking myself what would make the most sense long term. I wanted something that allowed us to grow bigger while still protecting the culture we built at Alumbra.”
Introduced to the eXp model by Thao Nguyen, Valencia saw an opportunity to expand while maintaining the identity of the company she built.
“eXp allowed us to keep our identity while plugging into a larger platform,” Valencia said. “Once I understood how eXp works and how we could continue operating as Alumbra within it, the decision started making more sense.”
In addition to leading a growing brokerage, Valencia balances multiple roles outside of real estate. She is currently pursuing her MBA, preparing to be an attorney, and raising a family.
Valencia’s leadership philosophy also extends beyond real estate. Through Heart and Hope, Alumbra International’s community outreach initiative, Valencia and her team organize volunteer work, donation drives, and community support efforts throughout Houston.
Valencia has received several industry recognitions for her work and leadership, including:
HAR 20 Under 40 — 2024Houston Agent Magazine Who’s Who — 2024Texas Agent to Watch — 2024NAHREP InfluenceHer of the Year — 2023 With Alumbra International now operating within eXp’s global network, Valencia and her brokerage plan to continue expanding their reach while maintaining the culture that has defined the brokerage’s success.

ARLINGTON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Homes.com, a CoStar Group (NASDAQ: CSGP) online residential marketplace, today announced plans to expand consumer access to pre-market listings, giving homebuyers an early look at homes before they are officially listed for sale. eXp Realty®, the core subsidiary of eXp World Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: EXPI) will be the first national brokerage to participate in Homes.com's new pre-marketing display program. The initiative reflects Homes.com's commitment to consumer.
BELLINGHAM, Wash., March 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- eXp Realty®, “the most agent-centric™ real estate brokerage on the planet” and the core subsidiary of eXp World Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXPI), announced that beginning April 15, agents will have the power to syndicate, on a non-exclusive basis, “Coming Soon” listings to premier national portals like Realtor.com, Homes.com, and ComeHome.com (Google Search). By bridging the gap between "pre-market" and "public-facing," eXp is redefining how agents generate early demand and deliver unparalleled exposure for their clients.
Starting April 15, eXp agents can, at their client’s request, place “Coming Soon” listings on Realtor.com, Homes.com, and ComeHome.com, subject to compliance with the rules and guidelines of their local MLS. These listings will be distributed through an integrated third-party listing distribution platform, Zenlist (available for download in the iOS and Android store today), allowing agents to share key property details and photos during the approved coming soon period.
“Our philosophy is simple,” said Leo Pareja, CEO of eXp Realty. “If a home is being marketed to the public, consumers deserve the opportunity to see it. Our role as an industry is to create the most open and efficient marketplace possible for buyers and sellers. This is not about limiting where listings appear. It is about expanding visibility and giving sellers the widest possible audience while maintaining compliance with MLS rules and local regulations.”
This move reflects eXp’s long-standing belief that transparency and broad consumer access to housing inventory serve the best interests of buyers and sellers alike. Expanding visibility helps ensure that more buyers have the opportunity to discover and evaluate homes, while giving sellers greater exposure to interested audiences. eXp believes consumers should be able to access listings across multiple platforms and not just a single website, in order to support a more open, competitive, and efficient housing marketplace.
Unmatched Visibility by the Numbers, 170M Monthly Views And Growing:
By making this capability available across its global agent network, eXp continues to invest in technology and distribution strategies that prioritize consumer access and agent flexibility now supported by:
Realtor.com: Recorded 62 million average monthly unique users (per calendar year Q4 2025 internal data).The Homes.com Network (including Homes.com, the Apartments Network, and the Land Network): Averaged 108 million monthly unique visitors for the year ended Dec. 31, 2025 (per Google Analytics).Comehome.com: ComeHome.com is HouseCanary's widely distributed real estate portal that partners with Google to showcase listings on Google Search in select markets. Importantly, this syndication will be non-exclusive. eXp is not entering into exclusive portal arrangements and any portal may choose to receive eXp listings on equal terms, subject to applicable MLS rules and seller authorization.
By expanding access to pre-market inventory, eXp is increasing visibility and opportunity for buyers and sellers alike. In an industry where timing and visibility are the ultimate currencies, eXp is ensuring its agents and their clients never have to choose between the two.

BELLINGHAM, Wash., March 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- eXp Realty®, “the most agent-centric™ real estate brokerage on the planet” and the core subsidiary of eXp World Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXPI), today announced that Southern California real estate leader Lance Martin has joined the brokerage.
After spending 24 years with Coldwell Banker, Martin has made the decision to move his business, The Martin Group / Cobalt Realty Group, to eXp Realty. The Southern California organization includes 140 agents across the region and has built a reputation for high production and long-term growth.
“Lance is a respected leader who has spent decades building one of the strongest organizations in Southern California,” said Leo Pareja, CEO of eXp Realty. “We’re thrilled to welcome him and the agents of The Martin Group / Cobalt Realty Group to eXp and support the continued growth of their organization.”
Real estate has long been a family business for Martin. His grandmother worked as a broker in the 1950s and was recognized as a top broker in 1956, often standing out as one of the only women in a male-dominated industry at the time. Today, Martin continues that legacy alongside his sons, Drew Martin and Drake Martin, who work with him in the business.
According to Martin, his decision to move to eXp Realty reflects broader changes taking place across the real estate industry.
“I’ve been saying for years that the traditional legacy franchise model is broken,” Martin said. “The agents have slowly floated to the top of the business model, and at eXp they’re actually positioned there.”
Martin also pointed to limitations within the franchise structure that restricted expansion into certain markets due to territorial boundaries. After decades of building offices and teams, those constraints became increasingly difficult to navigate as his organization continued to grow.
With the move to eXp, Martin says he plans to continue growing his organization, with long-term plans to scale The Martin Group / Cobalt Realty Group into an organization across multiple states.

Maximum Tampa Group, led by Yulia Olivo and Jennifer Rivera, partners with FIG Team to establish its first Tampa presence
BELLINGHAM, Wash., March 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- eXp Realty®, “the most agent-centric™ real estate brokerage on the planet” and the core subsidiary of eXp World Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXPI), today announced that top-producing Tampa team Maximum Tampa Group, led by Yulia Olivo and Jennifer Rivera, has returned to eXp Realty and will launch FIG Team Maximum Tampa in partnership with Veronica Figueroa’s FIG Team.
“Agents building real businesses need a platform that can support them at scale,” said Leo Pareja, CEO of eXp Realty. “Yulia and Jennifer understand what it takes to grow, and their return reflects the importance of having the right structure, systems, and leadership in place to support that growth long term.”
Olivo and Rivera, who previously joined LPT Realty as founding members, return to eXp after scaling their organization and identifying the need for a model designed to support sustained expansion. Together, they built Maximum Tampa Group into a high-performing team, closing $51.96 million in volume across 144 sides in 2024 and averaging between 120 and 150 transactions annually.
Through this move, they will step into leadership as Co-Team Leaders of FIG Team Maximum Tampa, marking FIG Team’s first expansion into the Tampa market. The new office will operate as a direct extension of the FIG Team, combining local leadership with established systems and operational support.
“We needed a model that could support where we’re going, not just where we are,” said Olivo. “We’ve experienced growth at a high level, and this move allows us to build with the right foundation in place.”
The partnership was formalized following a strategic alignment between Olivo, Rivera, and FIG Team leadership, including Veronica Figueroa and Isis Sarcos, whose organization has established a track record of scalable growth within eXp.
“For years, we’ve said we wanted to build one of the top teams in Tampa,” said Rivera. “This gives us the ability to do that within a structure that’s already proven.”
FIG Team Maximum Tampa will focus on recruiting, team development, and expanding market presence across the Tampa region, with a model that integrates media, systems, and agent growth into a unified platform.

BELLINGHAM, Wash., April 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- eXp Realty®, “the most agent-centric™ real estate brokerage on the planet” and the core subsidiary of eXp World Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXPI), today announced that Michelle Ferry-Cronin, along with the Cronin Team, has joined the company bringing with them a highly specialized focus on pre-foreclosure real estate.
Michelle Ferry-Cronin, daughter of renowned real estate coach Mike Ferry and sister of industry leader Tom Ferry, represents a new chapter for one of the most recognized families in real estate. Alongside her husband, Ron Cronin, and business partner Anna Vroom, she leads a business centered on navigating complex, high-stakes transactions for homeowners facing financial distress.
After a four-year tenure at Century 21, Michelle and her team began evaluating their next move, seeking a platform that aligned more closely with how they operate.
“Michelle brings a level of experience, precision, and heart to the business that aligns perfectly with how we see the future of real estate,” said Leo Pareja, CEO of eXp Realty. “Her focus on collaboration and her commitment to helping clients through complex situations is exactly the kind of leadership we continue to attract at eXp.”
“We interviewed four companies,” Ferry-Cronin said. “It was just more of the same song and dance.”
Ultimately, the team reconnected with commercial real estate expert Louis Chavez, with whom they had previously worked, before being introduced to Pareja.
“We kind of just knew we were at home with the right people,” Ferry-Cronin said. “eXp resonated with our inspiration and how we wanted to move ourselves forward in the industry.”
A key factor in the decision was collaboration. At eXp, she found a model that supports that approach at scale.
Today, approximately 70 percent of Ferry-Cronin’s business is focused on pre-foreclosure, where she and her team work directly with homeowners to help preserve equity and navigate complex financial situations.
“These aren’t typical transactions,” Ferry-Cronin said. “You’re stepping into someone’s life at a moment where timing matters, and every decision carries weight.”
Working alongside attorneys and a network of trusted vendors, her team manages intricate debt and lien negotiations while guiding clients through options such as strategic sales or loan modifications.
“I’ve always been drawn to the part of the business where you can actually make an impact,” she said. “This is where you’re really helping people through something.”
Ferry-Cronin’s move to eXp marks a strategic alignment between her hands-on, high-touch business model and a platform designed for collaboration and scalability.

eXp World Holdings to Announce First Quarter 2026 Results on May 11, 2026 Management to discuss first quarter 2026 results and host investor Q&A at virtual event
After building The Luxe Group into a multi-million-dollar force under a legacy brand, Orozco’s transition marks a new chapter centered on innovation, scalability, and long-term growth.
BELLINGHAM, Wash., April 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- eXp Realty®, “the most agent-centric™ real estate brokerage on the planet” and the core subsidiary of eXp World Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXPI), today announced that Sonia Orozco, veteran real estate leader, former RE/MAX franchise owner, and head of The Luxe Group, has officially joined eXp Realty alongside her 14 member, multi-million-dollar team. After 14 years with RE/MAX and more than $48 million in total team sales volume in 2025, Orozco’s move marks a significant next chapter for both her business and her agents.
“Sonia’s decision reflects what many top-producing agents and teams are recognizing across this industry: the future belongs to those who are willing to evolve,” said Leo Pareja, CEO of eXp Realty. “She has already built an extraordinary business, and we are proud to welcome Sonia and The Luxe Group to eXp as they position themselves for even greater scale, innovation, and opportunity.”
A respected 30-year industry veteran, Orozco built her reputation through high production, leadership, and a deeply established presence within one of real estate’s most recognized legacy brands. Yet despite outward success, Orozco said the evolving demands of modern business made it clear that future growth would require more than familiarity.
For Orozco, the decision was rooted in operational strategy as much as vision. After exploring alternative models, Orozco said eXp’s integrated technology, collaborative ecosystem, and access to broader educational opportunities across multiple sectors of real estate made the decision increasingly clear.
“When I started looking into other brokerages, there was just nothing else, in my opinion, that matched what eXp had to offer,” she said. “I saw that what I was lacking was what was already in place for me if I were to join eXp. Everything is readily available.”
Orozco’s transition also reflects a broader industry trend as veteran agents and team leaders increasingly prioritize infrastructure, flexibility, and scalable support systems over legacy branding alone. While commission structure is often a major conversation point for top producers evaluating change, Orozco said her decision came down to overall business value.
Now at eXp Realty, Orozco says she and The Luxe Group are positioned to access broader collaboration, modernized systems, and a more expansive growth environment designed to support long-term momentum.
“Environment is so important,” Orozco said. “You have the opportunity to learn from every aspect of the field. It’s not just about selling homes.”
By bringing The Luxe Group to eXp Realty, Orozco’s move underscores how established leaders are increasingly redefining what the next phase of success looks like in a rapidly evolving real estate industry.
For Orozco, the transition was not about leaving behind a successful past. It was about building a stronger future.

Sharif Hatab's move to eXp Realty united two established New Jersey brands under Unify Real Estate Team — built for growth, infrastructure, and expansion.
BELLINGHAM, Wash., May 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- eXp Realty®, “the most agent-centric™ real estate brokerage on the planet” and the core subsidiary of eXp World Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXPI), today announced that top-producing New Jersey real estate leader Sharif Hatab has joined eXp Realty and merged his established Team Sharif Sells brand with longtime eXp Realty leader Peter Boutros’ Stunning NJ Homes to form Unify Real Estate Team.
The strategic move combines more than $120 million in 2025 sales volume and 309 transactions, creating a newly unified platform designed for long-term scalability and future expansion throughout New Jersey and beyond.
“Sharif and Peter’s decision reflects exactly where the most forward-thinking leaders in real estate are headed,” said Leo Pareja, CEO of eXp Realty. “The industry is evolving faster than ever, and the leaders who will define the next era aren’t waiting to see what happens — they’re making deliberate, strategic moves today. That’s precisely what Sharif and Peter have done. Their decision to unify and scale under eXp isn’t just smart business — it’s a blueprint for where real estate teams are going.”
For Hatab, the move to eXp Realty followed years of evaluating brokerage models, expansion strategies, and long-term platform opportunities.
“As our team grew, it became increasingly clear that if we wanted to build a true platform with long-term scalability, leadership opportunities, and national expansion potential, we needed to align with a model designed for that future,” said Hatab. “eXp offered the collaboration, scalability, and ecosystem we needed, and merging with Peter created an even bigger opportunity to build something neither of us could create as effectively alone.”
Boutros, a six-time eXp ICON agent and founder of Stunning NJ Homes, said the merger represents a significant shift in how top teams may increasingly approach growth.
“We are no longer simply competing as individual teams,” said Boutros. “We now operate as a true platform with the infrastructure, systems, and resources to compete at a much higher level while still maintaining founder-led local leadership.”
Under the Unify Real Estate Team banner, the merged organization will operate with one CRM, one lead funnel, one playbook, and a significantly expanded support structure designed to improve operational consistency, speed to lead, coaching, and agent development. Leadership roles will focus heavily on sales growth, recruiting, coaching, and long-term wealth-building opportunities for agents seeking larger-scale business models.
As eXp Realty continues attracting top-producing operators focused on platform-building, collaboration, and expansion, the launch of Unify Real Estate Team highlights how ambitious leaders are increasingly leveraging the brokerage’s model to create larger, more scalable organizations.

Starting tomorrow, EXPI shares will begin trading under “AGNT”
BELLINGHAM, Wash., May 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- eXp World Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: AGNT) (“eXp” and the “Company”), the holding company for eXp Realty®, FrameVR.io, and SUCCESS® Enterprises, today announced it has acquired NextHome, Inc., an award-winning national real estate franchise. This acquisition transforms eXp’s world-class infrastructure into a versatile, multi-model platform capable of supporting diverse business models and brands under one global umbrella. In conjunction with this acquisition, eXp World Holdings, Inc. will officially begin trading under the new ticker symbol “AGNT” on the Nasdaq Global Market effective at the market open on May 8, 2026.
With the addition of a franchise model alongside its cloud-based brokerage, eXp World Holdings is architecting a leading multi-model ecosystem designed to propel the industry’s most ambitious entrepreneurs. NextHome brings a proven, scalable franchise model into the eXp ecosystem with 500+ franchisees across the U.S. and five consecutive years ranked No. 1 for franchise owner satisfaction by Franchise Business Review. NextHome is led by one of the most respected, well-known, and outspoken leadership teams in residential real estate, who will continue to drive NextHome’s growth within the new eXp platform. Together, AGNT now offers every entrepreneurial real estate professional a seat at the table, on their own terms.
"The industry has reached a tipping point, a one-size-fits-all model no longer works for the visionary entrepreneur," said Leo Pareja, CEO of eXp Realty. "AGNT is a declaration of who we build for. Adding the NextHome franchise model gives our agents and franchise owners maximum optionality, backed by a proven leadership team and now with a unified world-class infrastructure and an expanded global network. Teams and agents need more paths forward, and the industry needs companies led by people who don't just talk about being agent-centric, but live it. We're building a platform that supports multiple models, because every agent, and every consumer served, deserves choice."
James Dwiggins, Co-CEO of NextHome and a third-generation real estate entrepreneur, added: "Joining forces with eXp World Holdings is a natural evolution of our 'Humans Over Houses®' mission. By plugging into the most agent-centric™ real estate engine in the world, our franchise owners and agents will now gain access to unmatched depth, inventory, global network, and the kind of industry talent and influence that moves markets. We looked at every real estate company across the U.S., and eXp aligns with us the most — from company culture to philosophy to a leadership team that truly advocates for agents and consumers. This is the right partner to grow the NextHome brand and lead franchise expansion across the world."
The Architecture of Growth: Redefining the Real Estate Landscape
Today, AGNT becomes a multi-model leader where the industry's most dedicated entrepreneurs come to grow, lead, and stay. Whether you are an independent agent driven by eXp Realty’s cloud-powered scale, featuring aggressive commission splits, revenue share, and true equity ownership, or a franchise owner drawn to NextHome’s human-first culture, you are no longer just choosing a brand; you are choosing a global operating system designed for the modern entrepreneur. Two models. Maximum optionality. By bridging industry-leading technology with a massive global referral network and shared professional services, we’ve built a borderless ecosystem that empowers every level of real estate professional to build a legacy.
EXPI is now AGNT: Built by Agents. Built for Agents.
Shares of the Company’s common stock will begin trading tomorrow morning on the Nasdaq Global Market under the new ticker symbol, “AGNT.” The Company’s CUSIP number will remain unchanged, and no action is required by existing shareholders in connection with the ticker change.
The new ticker symbol, AGNT, reflects the Company’s strategic evolution and its continued focus on empowering independent agents and brokers through a cloud-based, technology-driven multi-platform model.
“AGNT is more than a ticker, it’s a declaration of who we are and who we serve,” continued Pareja. “Every decision we make at eXp is in service of our agents and their customers, and now that mission is reflected in our market identity. This is a proud moment for our entire community, and I look forward to building on this momentum as we continue to redefine what it means to be an agent-centric real estate platform.”

eXp ended the first quarter of 2026 with a global agent Net Promoter Score (“aNPS”) of 67, compared to 78 in the prior-year period. aNPS is a measure of agent satisfaction and an important key performance indicator given the Company’s intense focus on improving the agent experience.Agents and brokers on the eXp Realty platform were 82,332 as of March 31, 2026, a 1% increase.First quarter 2026 real estate sales transactions increased 2% year-over-year to 91,598.First quarter 2026 real estate sales volume increased 5% year-over-year to $40.7 billion.

Revenue between $4.85 billion and $5.15 billion.Operating expenses between $325 million and $345 million.Adjusted EBITDA1 between $50 million and $75 million. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and has not been reconciled to the most comparable GAAP outlook because it is not possible to do so without unreasonable efforts due to the uncertainty and potential variability of reconciling items, which are dependent on future events and often outside of management’s control and which could be significant. Because such items cannot be reasonably predicted with the level of precision required, we are unable to provide outlook for the comparable GAAP measures. Forward-looking estimates of Adjusted EBITDA are made in a manner consistent with the relevant definitions and assumptions noted in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
For a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures on a historical basis, see “US-GAAP Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation" and "Adjusted Operating Cash Flow" included in this press release.

The Company’s non-U.S. GAAP financial measures provide useful information about financial performance, enhance the overall understanding of past performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management for financial and operational decision-making. These measures may also provide additional tools for investors to use in comparing core financial performance over multiple periods with other companies in the industry.
Adjusted EBITDA helps the reader identify underlying trends in the business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the expenses excluded in adjusted EBITDA. In particular, the Company believes the exclusion of agent growth incentive stock-based compensation and stock compensation expense related to business acquisitions and stock option expenses provides a useful supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of operations and provides better transparency into results of operations. The Company defines the non-U.S. GAAP financial measure of adjusted EBITDA to mean net income, excluding other income (expense), income tax benefit (expense), depreciation, amortization, impairment charges, stock-based compensation expense and stock option expense and other items that are not core to the operating activities of the Company.Adjusted operating cash flow helps the reader understand the Company’s cash flow. The Company defines adjusted operating cash flow to mean net cash provided by operating activities, excluding the change in customer deposits. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted operating cash flow should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Brokerage leader Albert Meggers launches through NextHome’s new large-office franchise model, representing the first offices to join following eXp World Holdings’ acquisition of NextHome
PLEASANTON, Calif., May 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NextHome, an award-winning national real estate franchise and subsidiary of eXp World Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: AGNT), today announced the launch of two new Southern California brokerages through NextHome’s new large-office franchise model: NextHome Coastal Estates and NextHome Central Coast.
Owned by experienced brokerage leader Albert Meggers, both offices launch with nearly 200 agents serving California’s Central Coast and Ventura County markets. The Pismo Beach office will operate as NextHome Central Coast led by Jay Peet, while the Oxnard office will operate as NextHome Coastal Estates led by Omar Velazquez.
“NextHome has built something genuinely differentiated in the franchise space — a model that puts the operator first and a culture that agents are proud to be part of,” said James Dwiggins, President of NextHome. “The launch of NextHome Coastal Estates and NextHome Central Coast is a strong signal of what’s possible when an experienced operator finds the right partner. Albert and his teams are exactly the kind of leaders this model was built for, and we could not be more excited to welcome them to NextHome.”
For Meggers, the timing of his transition to NextHome felt well-aligned with the introduction of the new franchise model.
“Real estate is going through a period of punctuated change, and we have a voice in shaping the future based on who we affiliate with,” said Albert Meggers, owner of NextHome Central Coast and NextHome Coastal Estates. “If you honestly look at where NextHome fits within the real estate industry, the vast majority of agents align with its values. I’m excited to operate under a brand I can be proud of: a company that lives its values, supports its people, and genuinely cares about its operators. I’m confident I’ve found that at NextHome.”
With more than 20 years of experience in real estate business development, Meggers has built a reputation as a leader in market share growth and brokerage expansion. In 2006, he helped introduce a nationally franchised real estate brand into the Los Angeles market before expanding operations throughout Central California. Over time, he grew that company into one of the largest brokerages in California, operating 14 offices with more than 1,200 agents and holding dominant market share positions across multiple regions.
NextHome’s large-office model offers brokerages multiple technology paths under a single agreement, allowing operators to choose the structure that best fits their business. The model was designed to reduce operational overlap, simplify brokerage systems, and give leaders more flexibility in how they scale.

Safe Harbor and Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements reflect eXp World Holdings, Inc.’s (the “Company”) and its management’s current expectations but involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the anticipated success and growth of NextHome Coastal Estates and NextHome Central Coast, the expected benefits of NextHome’s large-office franchise model for brokerage operators, the anticipated expansion of NextHome’s footprint in Southern California and other markets, and the Company’s ability to attract and retain experienced operators and agents across its franchise network. Important factors that may cause actual results to differ materially and adversely from those expressed in forward-looking statements include real estate market fluctuations, changes in agent retention or recruitment, franchise owner satisfaction and retention, competitive pressures in both the cloud-based brokerage and franchise markets, regulatory changes affecting real estate brokerage or franchise operations, and other risks detailed from time to time in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including but not limited to the most recently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Annual Report on Form 10-K. We do not undertake any obligation to update these statements except as required by law.
BELLINGHAM, Wash., June 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AGNT, Inc. (Nasdaq: AGNT), the holding company for eXp Realty®, NextHome, Inc., FrameVR.io and SUCCESS® Enterprises (formerly known as eXp World Holdings, Inc.) (“AGNT” or the “Company”), today announced the completion of its corporate transformation, including the official renaming of the Company from eXp World Holdings, Inc. to AGNT, Inc. and the Company’s redomestication from Delaware to Texas.
The new name makes official what has defined the Company since its founding: an unwavering commitment to the success of independent real estate agents.
Since adopting the AGNT ticker in May 2026, alongside the addition of NextHome to its platform, the Company has operated as a true multi-model enterprise, uniting distinct brands under a single, agent-centric holding structure. This transformation brings the Company’s legal identity in line with that reality.
"We built this company around a single conviction: that agents deserve better economics, better technology, and a platform built in their image," said Glenn Sanford, Founder, Chairman and CEO of AGNT, Inc. "AGNT™ is the formalization of that belief. We are a multi-model platform, and every brand, every tool and every resource under this roof exists to serve agents at every stage of their career. AGNT is who we have always been and who we are building toward."
Echoing that focus at the brokerage level, Leo Pareja, CEO of eXp Realty, pointed to the platform's momentum.
"eXp Realty didn't become the world's largest independent brokerage by accident," said Leo Pareja, CEO of eXp Realty. "We built the technology, the culture and the agent economics around one goal: agents winning. AGNT gives that mission a permanent home at the holding company level. The platform is stronger than it has ever been, and we are just getting started."
AGNT Completes Redomestication to Texas
AGNT has also completed its redomestication to Texas. The move reflects a governance framework deliberately designed to match the realities of AGNT's agent-driven business model, where Texas law expressly permits directors and officers to consider the interests of constituencies critical to the enterprise — including agents — when exercising their fiduciary duties. The decision to redomesticate was the product of a Special Committee of independent directors, supported by outside counsel and a review process spanning more than a year, and was approved by AGNT’s stockholders at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 8, 2026.
