 share in 2024 and continue to sell the most luxury homes at all price points. We will lean into the strength of our distinctive value propositions and the talented agents who are drawn to our iconic brands to bolster our leadership position and propel growth.

We are also focused on expanding our high-margin franchise business, which added nearly 70 new franchisees in 2024. As we continue to see industry consolidation, we are well positioned with both the competitive advantages and liquidity to explore merger and acquisition opportunities at attractive economics.

Delivering Better Experiences Faster at Lower Cost

We realized nearly $125 million in savings in 2024, exceeding our initial cost savings target of $100 million, by simplifying, automating, and streamlining our operations, including through our continued work

to integrate and simplify the real estate transaction across our owned brokerage and title businesses.

As we enter 2025, Anywhere is transforming our operations to bolster our financial power and amplify long-term growth for the business through Reimagine25: our ambitious, multi-year transformation effort to deliver better experiences for our customers faster and at lower cost. We are embracing generative AI and digitization as early adopters with a focus on reducing manual processes and enhancing our value while jumpstarting a more innovative future. Reimagine25 should unlock additional revenue and contribute to our cost savings for 2025 and beyond.

Great Talent and Culture Leading the Future of Work

With the support of the Board, Anywhere continues to prioritize attracting and retaining top talent. We are frequently recognized externally on this front, named one of Fortune’s Most Innovative Companies in America for two years, one of Forbes’ World’s Best Employers for four years, a Great Place to Work® for seven years, and honored for our culture of integrity as one of the World’s Most Ethical Companies® for the 14th consecutive year.

#### Moving to What’s Next
This year, we will continue to lead with the proactive energy we’ve shown thus far as we build on our unique advantages, accelerate our strategic agenda, and reimagine our future to outperform the market and drive value for stakeholders.

On behalf of our Board of Directors, my senior leadership team, and our employees, thank you for your continued support of and investment in Anywhere.

Sincerely,

Ryan M. Schneider
