Strong Leasing revenue growth of 27% (27% in local currency)
Continued momentum in Services revenue growth, up 8% (7% in local currency)
Achieved lowest borrowing spread on term loan debt in company history
NEW YORK, August 05, 2026--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cushman & Wakefield Ltd. (NYSE: CWK) today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2026 and raised 2026 annual Adjusted earnings per share ("EPS") guidance to 18%-23% growth, up from previous guidance of 15%-20%.
"We didn't just meet the bar this quarter—we moved it, with record second quarter leasing, services and total revenues, and our lowest gross debt balance ever," said Michelle MacKay, Chief Executive Officer of Cushman & Wakefield. "Our opportunity extends far beyond the traditional definition of commercial real estate: We advise and operate across the entire built world, from data centers and infrastructure to energy and housing. That breadth, combined with a century of earned trust, is why we're raising our 2026 annual Adjusted EPS growth target to 18%-23% just two quarters into our three-year plan. We are builders, and we'll keep proving it every quarter."

Second Quarter Results (unaudited)
Revenue
Revenue of $2.8 billion increased $278.7 million or 11% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily driven by Services and Leasing revenue growth of 8% and 27%, respectively. Services revenue was strong across all segments, led by higher facilities management revenue, which increased approximately $55.0 million including through new client wins and the expansion of existing client mandates and higher project management revenue in the Americas and EMEA, which increased approximately $27.0 million and $20.0 million, respectively. Leasing revenue increased principally driven by growth in the Americas across all deal sizes, with continued strength in office and industrial leasing, including data centers, as demand for high-quality assets remained strong. Valuation and other revenue increased 10%. Capital markets revenue decreased 1%, resulting from a 6% decline in the Americas driven primarily by declines in mid-sized transactions, most notably in the multi-family sector, partially offset by strength in EMEA and APAC.
Costs of services
Costs of services of $2.3 billion increased $234.0 million or 12% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. Gross contract costs increased $95.3 million or 9%, principally driven by an increase in reimbursed client-dedicated labor costs of approximately $44.0 million and third-party consumables and sub-contractor costs of approximately $49.0 million. Of the $95.3 million increase in Gross contract costs, $94.3 million related to Services. Cost of services provided to clients increased $138.7 million or 14%, primarily due to an increase in employment costs of approximately $120.0 million, including higher commissions associated with higher brokerage revenue and higher salaries as a result of higher Services revenue. Of the $138.7 million increase in Cost of services provided to clients, $30.2 million related to Services.
Operating, administrative and other
Operating, administrative and other expenses of $349.3 million increased $31.0 million or 10% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily driven by an increase in employment costs of approximately $14.0 million, largely due to higher salaries and bonuses, as well as higher occupancy costs, strategic investments and cost inflation.
Interest expense, net of interest income
Interest expense, net of interest income of $59.6 million increased $6.4 million or 12% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to $4.5 million of costs associated with the amendment of the credit agreement, as well as a $2.0 million loss on debt extinguishment from the partial redemptions of the senior secured notes due in 2028.
Earnings from equity method investments
Earnings from equity method investments of $2.3 million increased $2.1 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to an increase of $2.2 million recognized from our equity method investment in Cushman Wakefield Greystone LLC (the "Greystone JV") driven primarily by lower provisions for credit losses for mortgage loans compared to the second quarter of 2025. In the second quarter of 2026, the Greystone JV recorded a non-cash provision for loan losses of $9.0 million, of which the company recorded $3.6 million based on its 40% equity interest which was included within Earnings (loss) from equity method investments. Changes in expectations and forecasts may materially impact the provision for loan losses in the future.
Other income, net
Other income, net of $0.4 million decreased $6.0 million or 94% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decline was principally driven by an increase in unrealized losses on our real estate investments of $3.4 million.
Provision for income taxes
Provision for income taxes for the second quarter of 2026 was $24.6 million on earnings before income taxes of $77.3 million. For the second quarter of 2025, the provision for income taxes was $18.9 million on earnings before income taxes of $76.2 million. The increase in income tax expense compared to the second quarter of 2025 was primarily attributable to higher earnings before income taxes and changes in the jurisdictional mix of those earnings, as well as discrete tax adjustments recorded in the second quarter of 2026, including higher accruals associated with uncertain tax positions.
Net income and Adjusted EBITDA
Net income of $52.7 million decreased by $4.6 million or 8% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in net income was principally driven by declines in our Capital markets service line, higher interest expense, higher unrealized losses on real estate investments, higher occupancy costs, strategic investments and cost inflation. These unfavorable trends were partially offset by growth in our Services and Leasing service lines.
Adjusted EBITDA of $183.6 million increased $21.9 million or 14% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, attributable to the same factors impacting Net income above, with the exception of interest expense and unrealized losses on real estate investments.
Year-to-Date Results (unaudited)
Revenue
Revenue of $5.3 billion increased $529.9 million or 11% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily driven by Services and Leasing revenue growth of 8% and 24%, respectively. Services revenue was strong across all segments, led by higher facilities management revenue, which increased approximately $133.0 million including through new client wins and the expansion of existing client mandates and higher project management revenue of approximately $91.0 million. Leasing revenue increased principally driven by growth in the Americas across all deal sizes, with continued strength in office and industrial leasing, including data centers, as demand for high-quality assets remained strong. Capital markets revenue increased 6%, with growth in all segments compared to the first half of 2025, reflecting our ongoing investments in hiring top talent and strengthening our platform, partially offset by declines in the multi-family sector. Valuation and other revenue increased 9%.
Costs of services
Costs of services of $4.4 billion increased $448.8 million or 11% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. Gross contract costs increased $205.3 million or 10%, principally driven by an increase in reimbursed client-dedicated labor costs of approximately $75.0 million and third-party consumables and sub-contractor costs of approximately $126.0 million. Of the $205.3 million increase in Gross contract costs, $202.9 million related to Services. Cost of services provided to clients increased $243.5 million or 13%, primarily due to an increase in employment costs of approximately $213.0 million, including higher commissions associated with higher brokerage revenue and higher salaries as a result of higher Services revenue. Of the $243.5 million increase in Cost of services provided to clients, $49.1 million related to Services. Total costs of services as a percentage of total revenue was 82% for both the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
Operating, administrative and other
Operating, administrative and other expenses of $686.1 million increased $62.0 million or 10% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily driven by an increase in employment costs of approximately $28.0 million, largely due to higher salaries, as well as higher technology costs, higher occupancy costs, strategic investments and cost inflation. In addition, the company recorded a non-cash servicing liability of $11.8 million related to the revolving accounts receivables securitization (the "A/R Securitization") amendment in March 2026. Operating, administrative and other expenses as a percentage of total revenue was 13% for both the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
Restructuring, impairment and related charges
The company did not incur any Restructuring, impairment and related charges during the six months ended June 30, 2026. In the six months ended June 30, 2025, Restructuring, impairment and related charges of $6.5 million were related to an impairment loss on real estate investments.
Earnings (loss) from equity method investments
Loss from equity method investments was $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to earnings from equity method investments of $11.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The $13.1 million decline was primarily due to a decrease of $9.0 million in earnings recognized from the Greystone JV driven by changes in mix of mortgage loan origination volumes compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, contributing to a lower value of mortgage servicing rights ("MSRs"), and higher provisions for credit losses for mortgage loans due to expected losses on specific loans and higher risk-sharing obligations. In the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Greystone JV recorded a non-cash provision for loan losses of $17.6 million, of which the company recorded $7.1 million based on its 40% equity interest which was included within Earnings (loss) from equity method investments. Changes in expectations and forecasts may materially impact the provision for loan losses in the future. In addition, the company recognized lower earnings from our equity method investment in CWVS Holding Limited (the "Onewo JV"), which declined $3.2 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025 due to higher provisions for credit losses.
Other (expense) income, net
Other expense, net was $14.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to other income, net of $7.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The $21.9 million decline was principally due to the non-cash settlement loss of $17.2 million related to a pension buy-out arrangement in the United Kingdom ("U.K."). In addition, the company recognized lower realized and unrealized gains from our real estate investments compared to the second quarter of 2025.
Provision for income taxes
Provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $27.6 million on earnings before income taxes of $67.7 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the provision for income taxes was $22.0 million on earnings before income taxes of $81.2 million. The increase in income tax expense compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to discrete tax adjustments recorded in the first half of 2026, including higher accruals associated with uncertain tax positions and return to provision adjustments from various foreign entities.
Net income and Adjusted EBITDA
Net income of $40.1 million decreased by $19.1 million or 32% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in net income was principally driven by the pension buy-out settlement loss, A/R Securitization servicing liability, lower earnings recognized from our equity method investments, higher occupancy costs, strategic investments and cost inflation. These unfavorable trends were partially offset by growth in all of our service lines.
Adjusted EBITDA of $294.9 million increased $37.0 million or 14% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, attributable to the same factors impacting Net income above, with the exception of the pension buy-out settlement loss, A/R Securitization servicing liability and non-operating items related to the Greystone JV.
