New York, NY – January 8, 2026 - Compass, Inc. (NYSE: COMP) (the “Company”), today announced the pricing of its offering of $850.0 million in aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2031 (the “Notes”) in a private offering, which represents a $100.0 million increase from the previously announced size of the offering. The Company also granted the initial purchasers of the Notes an option to purchase up to an additional $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes within a 13-day period beginning on, and including, the date on which the Notes are initially issued. The offering of the Notes and the capped call transactions described below are expected to be completed on or about January 9, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.

The Notes will be the Company’s senior unsecured obligations and will be jointly and severally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of the Company’s subsidiaries that guarantees the Company’s existing revolving credit facility. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which will include (i) to the extent that the previously announced merger with Anywhere Real Estate Inc. (“Anywhere”) is completed (the “Merger”), the repayment of certain existing indebtedness of Anywhere and its subsidiaries at closing of the Merger, including borrowings under Anywhere’s revolving credit facility and payment of fees, costs and expenses related to the Merger and (ii) the funding of the net cost of entering into the capped call transactions described below.

Prior to January 15, 2031, the Notes will be convertible only upon satisfaction of certain conditions and during certain periods, and thereafter, at any time until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. The Company will satisfy any conversion elections by paying and/or delivering, as the case may be, cash, shares of its Class A common stock or a combination of cash and shares of its Class A common stock, at the Company’s election. Separately, the Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after April 20, 2029 and on or before the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date upon the satisfaction of certain conditions.

In connection with the pricing of the Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions with certain of the initial purchasers of the Notes or their affiliates and certain other financial institutions (the “counterparties”). The capped call transactions cover, subject to certain customary adjustments, the number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock underlying the Notes. If the initial purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional Notes, then the Company expects to enter into additional capped call transactions with the counterparties. The cap price of the capped call transactions will initially be $23.68 per share, which represents a premium of 100.0% over the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock on January 7, 2026, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the capped call transactions.

The Company expects that, in connection with establishing their initial hedge of the capped call transactions, the counterparties or their respective affiliates will purchase shares of the Company’s Class A common stock and/or enter into various derivative transactions with respect to the Company’s Class A common stock concurrently with, or shortly after, the pricing of the Notes, including potentially with certain investors in the Notes. These activities could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of the Class A common stock or the Notes at that time. In addition, the counterparties or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to the Company’s Class A common stock and/or purchasing or selling shares of Class A common stock or other securities of the Company in secondary market transactions following the pricing of the Notes and prior to the maturity of the Notes (and are likely to do so during any observation period relating to a conversion of the Notes). This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or a decrease in the market price of the Class A common stock or the Notes, which could affect the ability of noteholders to convert the Notes and, to the extent the activity occurs during any observation period related to a conversion of the Notes, could affect the number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock and value of the consideration that noteholders will receive upon conversion of the Notes.

The Notes (including the related guarantees) are being offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes (and the related guarantees). Any offers of the Notes (and the related guarantees) will be made only by means of a private offering memorandum. The offer and sale of the Notes (and the related guarantees) and the shares of the Company’s Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes, if any, have not been registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and the Notes (and related guarantees) may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
