[{"type":"text","content":" WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--\nCoStar Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSGP), the leading provider of commercial real estate information, analytics and online marketplaces, announced today that revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, was $397 million, an increase of 16% over revenue of $344 million for the second quarter of 2019. Net income for the second quarter of 2020 was $60 million, or $1.60 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA (which excludes stock-based compensation, acquisition and integration related costs and other items as described below) for the second quarter of 2020 was $129 million, an increase of 17% compared to adjusted EBITDA of $110 million for the second quarter of 2019.\n\n\n“Our team delivered an outstanding set of results in the second quarter as we grew revenue 16%, increased adjusted EBITDA by 17%, set a record sales month, raised $2.7 billion dollars in the equity and debt markets and acquired Ten-X – all while working 100% from remote locations,” said Andrew C. Florance, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of CoStar Group. “Our results indicate that our business is not only resilient but is in fact clearly countercyclical. Traffic to our Apartments.com and LoopNet marketplaces are at record levels, exceeding pre-pandemic levels. We had 62 million monthly unique visitors on our platforms in the second quarter, an increase of 13% over our record traffic levels of 55 million monthly unique visitors reached in the first quarter of 2020.”\n\n\nFlorance continued, “We generated company-wide net new sales bookings of $35 million in the second quarter of 2020, with sales levels increasing each month to a record $22 million of annualized net new sales in June. Our Apartments.com platform delivered record sales, traffic and revenue in the second quarter, once again demonstrating that our solutions are mission critical to our clients, and even more so in an environment of limited person-to-person contact. Our increased brand marketing campaign is producing strong results, generating over three billion impressions in the second quarter, an increase of 57% over the second quarter of 2019. Our investment to create higher levels of brand awareness is driving record sales results.”\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nYear 2019-2020 Quarterly Results - Unaudited\n\n\n\n\n\n(in millions, except per share data)\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n2019\n\n\n\n \...
