1. Organization
RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. (the “Corporation”) was formed as a Delaware corporation on June 25, 2013 and was capitalized on July 8, 2013. On October 7, 2013, the Corporation completed an initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 11,500,000 shares of Class A common stock at a public offering price of $22.00 per share (“IPO”). A portion of the proceeds received by the Corporation during the IPO was used to acquire the business assets of HBN, Inc. (“HBN”) and Tails, Inc. (“Tails”) and the remaining proceeds were used to purchase common membership interests in RMCO, LLC (“RMCO”) following the reorganization transactions described in Note 5, Subsequent Events. After the completion of the IPO, the Corporation’s sole asset is now 39.56% of the common membership units in RMCO. The Corporation’s only business is to act as the sole manager of RMCO and, in that capacity, the Corporation operates and controls all of the business and affairs of RMCO. As a result, on October 8, 2013, the Corporation began to consolidate the financial results of RMCO and its subsidiaries. The Corporation’s only source of cash flow from operations will be distributions from RMCO and management fees pursuant to a management services agreement between the Corporation and RMCO. As of September 30, 2013, the Corporation had not engaged in any business or other activities except in connection with its formation and the negotiation of the acquisition of the business assets of HBN and Tails.

3. Stockholder’s Equity
As of September 30, 2013, the Corporation was authorized to issue 100 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”). Under the Corporation’s certificate of incorporation as in effect as of June 25, 2013, all shares of Common Stock were identical. On July 8, 2013, the Corporation issued one share of Common Stock in exchange for $1.00.
In connection with the IPO, the Corporation amended its charter to authorize capital stock consisting of 180,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A common stock”), 1,000 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B common stock”), and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. Each share of Class A common stock entitles its holder to one vote on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. The shares of Class B common stock have no economic rights but entitle the holder, without regard to the number of shares of Class B common stock held, to a number of votes on matters presented to stockholders of the Corporation that is equal to two times the aggregate number of common units of RMCO held by such holder.
The voting rights of the Class B common stock will be reduced to one times the aggregate number of RMCO common units held by a holder from and after any of the following events: (i) the fifth anniversary of this initial public offering; (ii) the death of our Chairman and Founder David L. Liniger; or (iii) at such time as RIHI, Inc.’s (“RIHI”) ownership of RMCO common units is below 30% of the number of RMCO common units held by RIHI immediately after this offering. Additionally, in the event that any common units of RMCO are validly transferred in accordance with the terms of the Fourth Amended and Restated RMCO, LLC agreement, the voting rights of the corresponding shares of Class B common stock to be transferred will be reduced to one times the aggregate number of RMCO common units held by such transferee, unless the transferee is David Liniger.
Immediately following the IPO, there were 11,500,000 shares of the Corporation’s Class A common stock issued and outstanding and one share of the Corporation’s Class B common stock issued and outstanding. Additionally, on October 1, 2013, the Corporation granted 107,971 restricted stock units to certain employees that vested upon grant but for which the underlying shares will not be issued until May 20, 2014. See Note 5, Subsequent Events.

5. Subsequent Events
On October 7, 2013, the Corporation completed the IPO of 11,500,000 shares of Class A common stock at a public offering price of $22.00 per share. Certain agreements and transactions associated with the IPO are set forth below:
Reorganization Transactions
In connection with the completion of the IPO, RMCO’s Third Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement, dated as of February 1, 2013 was amended and restated to, among other things, modify its capital structure as follows (collectively referred to as, the “Reorganization Transactions”):
RMCO’s existing Class A preferred membership interest was converted into (i) a new preferred membership interest that reflected RMCO’s preferred equity holder’s liquidation preference of $49,850,000 and (ii) a common interest that reflected RMCO’s preferred equity holders pro-rata share of the residual equity value of RMCO;
RMCO effectuated a 25 for 1 split of the then existing number of outstanding common units so that one common unit of RMCO could be acquired with the net proceeds received in the Corporation’s IPO from the sale of one share of the Corporation’s Class A common stock, after the deduction of underwriting discounts and commissions;
The Corporation became a member and the sole manager of RMCO following the purchase of common units of RMCO, as described below;
Previously outstanding and unexercised options to acquire common units of RMCO were split 25 for 1 and then substituted for 787,500 options to acquire shares of the Corporation’s Class A common stock; and
Unit holders of RMCO (other than the Corporation) were granted the right to redeem each of their common units of RMCO for, at the Corporation’s option, newly issued shares of Class A common stock of the Corporation on a one-for-one basis or for a cash payment equal to the market price of one share of the Corporation’s Class A common stock.
Initial Public Offering
The IPO closed on October 7, 2013, and the Corporation raised a total of $253,000,000 in gross proceeds from the sale of 11,500,000 shares of Class A common stock at $22.00 per share, or $224,922,500 in net proceeds after deducting $17,077,500 of underwriting discounts and commissions and $11,000,000 of estimated offering expenses, which were incurred by RMCO in connection with the IPO.
The Corporation used $27,305,000 of the proceeds from the IPO to reacquire regional RE/MAX franchise rights in the Southwest and Central Atlantic regions of the U.S. through the acquisitions of the business assets of HBN and Tails. Immediately following the acquisitions of the business assets of HBN and Tails, the Corporation contributed such assets to RMCO in exchange for 1,330,977 common units of RMCO, reflecting the $22.00 per share IPO price net of underwriters’ commissions. The Corporation then used the remaining $208,617,500 of the net proceeds received from the IPO to purchase 10,169,023 common units in RMCO. See Note 12, Subsequent Events of RMCO’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding RMCO’s use of proceeds.
Prior to the IPO, the Corporation did not engage in any business or activities except in connection with its formation and the negotiation of the acquisition of the business assets of HBN and Tails. The Corporation’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows included in the unaudited condensed financial statements do not reflect the transactions associated with the Corporation’s IPO. Subsequent to the IPO and related Reorganization Transactions, the Corporation will consolidate the financial results of RMCO and its subsidiaries, and the ownership interest of the other members of RMCO will be reflected as a non-controlling interest in the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements beginning October 8, 2013.
Tax Receivable Agreements
The Corporation entered into separate tax receivable agreements with the historical RMCO’s owners, Weston Presidio V, L.P. (“Weston Presidio” and, together with RIHI, the “Historical Owners”) and RIHI that will provide for the payment by the Corporation to the Historical Owners of 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax or franchise tax that the Corporation actually realizes, or in some circumstances is deemed to realize, as a result of an expected increase in its share of tax basis in RMCO’s tangible and intangible assets, including increases attributable to payments made under the tax receivable agreements, and deductions attributable to imputed and actual interest that accrues in respect of such payments. These tax benefit payments are not necessarily conditioned upon one or more of the Historical Owners maintaining a continued ownership interest in either RMCO or the Corporation. The Corporation expects to benefit from the remaining 15% of cash savings, if any, that it may actually realize. The substantive provisions of the separate tax receivable agreements that the Corporation entered into with each of its Historical Owners were substantially identical.
Management Services Agreement
In connection with the completion of the IPO, the Corporation entered into a management services agreement with RMCO pursuant to which the Corporation agreed to provide certain specific management services to RMCO. In exchange for the services provided, RMCO will reimburse the Corporation for compensation and other expenses of the Corporation’s officers and employees and for certain out-of-pocket costs. RMCO will also provide administrative and support services to the Corporation, such as office facilities, equipment, supplies, payroll and accounting and financial reporting. The management services agreement also provides that employees of the Corporation may participate in RMCO’s benefit plans, and that RMCO employees may participate in the Corporation’s equity incentive plan. RMCO will indemnify the Corporation for any losses arising from the Corporation’s performance under the management services agreement, except that the Corporation will indemnify RMCO for any losses caused by willful misconduct or gross negligence.
Equity-Based Awards
On October 1, 2013 the Corporation granted 107,971 restricted stock units at a value of $22.00 per unit to certain employees in connection with the Corporation’s IPO that vested upon grant, but for which the underlying shares will not be issued until May 20, 2014. Non-cash compensation expense of approximately $2,051,000 associated with these restricted stock units will be recognized during the fourth quarter of 2013, which reflects a discount for the lack of marketability of the restricted stock units.
In addition, on October 1, 2013, the Corporation granted 115,699 restricted stock units at a value of $22.00 per unit to its officers and employees, which will vest over a three year period and 18,184 restricted stock units at a value of $22.00 per unit to its directors, which will vest over a one year period. As a result of the vesting requirements associated with these restricted stock units, non-cash compensation expense of approximately $264,000 is expected to be recognized in the fourth quarter of 2013 and approximately $1,029,000, $754,000 and $691,000 of non-cash compensation expense is expected to be recognized during 2014, 2015, and 2016, respectively.
(12) Subsequent Events
On October 7, 2013, RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. completed the IPO of 11,500,000 shares of Class A common stock at a public offering price of $22.00 per share. Certain transactions and agreements associated with the IPO are set forth below:
Reorganization Transactions
In connection with the completion of the IPO, RMCO’s Third Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement, dated as of February 1, 2013 was amended and restated to, among other things, modify its capital structure as follows (collectively referred to, the “Reorganization Transactions”):
RMCO’s existing Class A preferred membership interest was converted into (i) a new preferred membership interest that reflected Weston Presidio’s liquidation preference of approximately $49,850,000 and (ii) a common interest that reflected Weston Presidio’s pro-rata share of the residual equity value of RMCO;
RMCO effectuated a 25 for 1 split of the then existing number of outstanding common units so that one common unit of RMCO could be acquired with the net proceeds received in RE/MAX Holdings, Inc.’s IPO from the sale of one share of RE/MAX Holdings, Inc.’s Class A common stock, after the deduction of underwriting discounts and commissions;
RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. became a member and the sole manager of RMCO following the purchase of common units of RMCO, as described below;
Previously outstanding and unexercised options to acquire common units in RMCO were split 25 for 1 and then substituted for 787,500 options to acquire shares of RE/MAX Holdings, Inc.’s Class A common stock; and
Unit holders of RMCO (other than RE/MAX Holdings, Inc.) were given the right to redeem each of their common units of RMCO, for, at RE/MAX Holdings, Inc.’s option, newly issued shares of Class A common stock of RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. on a one-for-one basis or for a cash payment equal to the market price of one share of RE/MAX Holdings Inc.’s Class A common stock.
Initial Public Offering
The IPO closed on October 7, 2013, and RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. raised a total of $253,000,000 in gross proceeds from the sale of 11,500,000 shares of Class A common stock at $22.00 per share, or $224,922,500 in net proceeds after deducting $17,077,500 of underwriting discounts and commissions and $11,000,000 of estimated offering expenses.
RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. used $27,305,000 of the proceeds from the IPO to reacquire regional RE/MAX franchise rights in the Southwest and Central Atlantic regions of the U.S. through the acquisitions of the business assets of HBN and Tails, which occurred on October 7, 2013. Immediately following the acquisitions of the business assets of HBN and Tails, RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. contributed such assets to RMCO in exchange for 1,330,977 common units of RMCO reflecting the $22.00 public offering price per share of RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. Class A common stock, less underwriting discounts. RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. acquired the business assets of HBN and Tails and contributed the assets to the Company in order to expand the Company’s owned and operated regional franchising operations. The assets acquired constitute a business accounted for using the fair value acquisition method. The preliminary purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired based on a preliminary estimate of their estimated fair values and is subject to change. The excess of the total purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill recognized for the acquisitions of HBN and Tails is attributable to expected synergies and projected long-term revenue growth and relates entirely to the Real Estate Franchise Services segment.
The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated fair value of the assets acquired at the acquisition date (in thousands):

RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. then used the remaining $208,617,500 of the net proceeds received from the IPO to purchase 10,169,023 common units of RMCO. Of the $208,617,500 of proceeds received by RMCO from RE/MAX Holdings, Inc., $11,000,000 was reserved by RMCO to pay estimated offering expenses. The remaining $197,617,500 of proceeds was used as follows: (i) $49,850,000 was used to pay the liquidity preference associated with Weston Presidio’s preferred membership interest in RMCO; and (ii) $147,767,500 was used to redeem common units of RMCO from Weston Presidio and RIHI at a price per common unit equal to the public offering price per share of RE/MAX Holdings, Inc.’s Class A common stock, less underwriting discounts.
Prior to the IPO, RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. did not engage in any business or activities except in connection with its formation and the negotiation of the acquisition of the business assets of HBN and Tails. Subsequent to the IPO and related reorganization and offering transactions, RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. will consolidate the financial results of RMCO and its subsidiaries, and the ownership interest of the other members of RMCO will be reflected as a non-controlling interest in RE/MAX Holdings, Inc.’s consolidated financial statements beginning October 8, 2013.
In connection with the successful completion of the IPO, the Company paid $528,000 in cash bonuses to its employees.
Tax Receivable Agreements
RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. entered into separate tax receivable agreements with Weston Presidio and RIHI (collectively, the “Historical Owners”), that will provide for the payment by RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. to the Historical Owners of RMCO of 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax or franchise tax that RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. actually realizes, or in some circumstances is deemed to realize, as a result of an expected increase in its share of tax basis in RMCO’s tangible and intangible assets, including increases attributable to payments made under the tax receivable agreements, and deductions attributable to imputed and actual interest that accrues in respect of such payments. These tax benefit payments are not necessarily conditioned upon one or more of the Historical Owners maintaining a continued ownership interest in either RMCO or RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. expects to benefit from the remaining 15% of cash savings, if any, that it may actually realize. The provisions of the separate tax receivable agreements that RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. entered into with each of its Historical Owners were identical.
Management Services Agreement
In connection with the completion of the IPO, the Company entered into a management services agreement with RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. pursuant to which RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. will agree to provide certain specific management services to the Company.

(1) Business and Basis of Presentation
Business
RMCO, LLC (a Delaware limited liability company) and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “RMCO”) are one of the world’s leading franchisors of residential and commercial real estate brokerage services throughout the United States (“U.S.”) and globally. The Company also operates real estate brokerage services businesses in the U.S. The Company’s revenue is derived from continuing franchise fees, annual dues from agents, broker fees, franchise sales and other franchise revenue (which consist of fees from initial sales of and renewals of franchises, regional franchise fees, preferred marketing arrangements, approved supplier programs and event-based revenue from training and other programs) and brokerage revenue (which consists of fees assessed to the Company’s owned brokerages for services provided to their affiliated real estate agents). A franchise grants the broker-owner a license to use the RE/MAX brand, trademark, promotional and operating materials and concepts.
The Company reports its operations in two reportable segments: (1) Real Estate Franchise Services and (2) Brokerage and Other. The Company’s Real Estate Franchise Services reportable segment comprises the operations of the Company’s owned and independent global franchising operations under the RE/MAX brand name. The Company’s Brokerage and Other reportable segment includes the Company’s brokerage services business, and reflects the elimination of intersegment revenue and other consolidation entries as well as corporate-wide professional services expenses.
RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. was formed as a Delaware corporation on June 25, 2013 and was capitalized on July 8, 2013. As of September 30, 2013, RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. had not engaged in any business or activities except in connection with its formation and the negotiation of the acquisition of the business assets of HBN, Inc. (“HBN”) and Tails, Inc. (“Tails”). On October 1, 2013, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission declared effective a registration statement relating to shares of Class A common stock of RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. to be offered and sold in an initial public offering (the “IPO”). On October 7, 2013, RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. completed the IPO of 11,500,000 shares of Class A common stock at a public offering price of at a price of $22.00 per share. RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. used a portion of the proceeds received from the IPO to acquire the business assets of HBN and Tails and contributed these assets to RMCO in exchange for common units in RMCO. The remaining proceeds received by RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. were used to purchase common membership interests in RMCO following the RMCO reorganization transactions as described in Note 12, Subsequent Events. As a result, RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. became a member and sole manager of the Company and, in that capacity, operates and controls all of the business and affairs of the Company. Subsequent to the closing of the IPO, the results of the Company will be included in the consolidated financial statements of RE/MAX Holdings, Inc.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and comprise the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and with Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In compliance with those instructions, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis and include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2013, the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 and changes in redeemable preferred units and members’ deficit for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Interim results may not be indicative of full year performance.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant areas in which management uses assumptions include, among other things, the establishment of the allowances for doubtful trade accounts and notes receivable, the determination of the estimated lives of intangible assets, estimates used to calculate unit-based compensation expense, the estimates of the fair value of reporting units used in the annual assessment of goodwill and the fair value of assets acquired. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Deferred offering costs
Through September 30, 2013, the Company incurred approximately $4,816,000 in costs related to the IPO. These costs have been deferred and were recorded as a reduction to the proceeds received from the IPO at the time of closing, which occurred on October 7, 2013. Deferred offering costs are included in “Other assets” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. No costs were deferred as of December 31, 2012.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”), RE/MAX Holdings, Inc., including its subsidiaries, meets the definition of an emerging growth company. RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. and the Company have irrevocably elected to opt out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards pursuant to Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act.
In March 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity (ASU 2013-05). This amendment clarifies the applicable guidance for the release of cumulative translation adjustment into net earnings. When an entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity, the entity is required to apply the guidance in FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 830-30, Translation of Financial Statements, to release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net earnings. ASU 2013-05 is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Effective January 1, 2013, the Company adopted ASU No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2013-02). The adoption of ASU 2013-02 concerns only presentation and disclosure and did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

(2) Acquisitions
Acquisition of RE/MAX of Texas
Effective December 31, 2012, the Company acquired certain assets of RE/MAX/KEMCO Partnership L.P. d/b/a RE/MAX of Texas (“RE/MAX of Texas”), including the regional franchise agreements issued by the Company permitting the sale of RE/MAX franchises in the state of Texas. The Company acquired these assets in order to expand its owned and operated regional franchising operations. The purchase price was $45,500,000 and was paid in cash using proceeds from borrowings. The assets acquired constitute a business that was accounted for using the fair value acquisition method. The total purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the total purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill recognized for RE/MAX of Texas is attributable to expected synergies and projected long-term revenue growth and relates entirely to the Real Estate Franchise Services segment.

The valuation of acquired regional franchise agreements was derived using primarily unobservable Level 3 inputs, which require significant management judgment and estimation. The regional franchise agreements acquired were valued using an income approach and are being amortized over the remaining contractual term of approximately four years using the straight-line method. For the remaining assets acquired, fair value approximated carrying value.
Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information
The following unaudited pro forma financial information reflects the consolidated results of operations of the Company as if the acquisition of RE/MAX of Texas had occurred on January 1, 2012. The historical financial information has been adjusted to give effect to events that are (1) directly attributed to the acquisition, (2) factually supportable and (3) expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results. Such items include interest expense related to debt issued to fund the acquisition as well as additional amortization expense associated with the valuation of the acquired franchise agreement. This unaudited pro forma information should not be relied upon as necessarily being indicative of the historical results that would have been obtained if the acquisition had actually occurred on that date, nor of the results that may be obtained in the future.

Based on the Company’s amortizable intangible assets as of September 30, 2013, the Company expects related amortization expense for the remainder of 2013, the four succeeding years and thereafter to approximate $3,142,000, $12,473,000, $12,262,000, $12,024,000, $8,162,000 and $23,823,000, respectively.
The Company performs its annual impairment analysis of goodwill as of August 31 each year or more often if there are indicators of impairment present. The Company tests each reporting unit for goodwill impairment. Reporting units are driven by the level at which management reviews operating results and are one level below the operating segment. The Company’s impairment assessment begins with a qualitative assessment to determine if it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than the carrying amount. The initial qualitative assessment includes comparing the overall financial performance of the reporting units against the planned results as well as other factors which might indicate that the reporting unit’s value has declined since the last assessment date. If it is determined in the qualitative assessment that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, then the standard two-step quantitative impairment test is performed. The first step of the quantitative impairment test consists of comparing the estimated fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the estimated fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, then it is not considered impaired and no further analysis is required. If step one indicates that the estimated fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, then impairment potentially exists and the second step is performed to measure the amount of goodwill impairment. Goodwill impairment exists when the estimated implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill is less than its carrying value.
The Company determined the fair value of its reporting units utilizing the Company’s best estimate of future revenue, operating expenses, cash flows, market and general economic conditions as well as assumptions that it believes marketplace participants would utilize, including discount rates, cost of capital, and long term growth rates as we all other factors in its analyses. As a result of the first step of the Company’s goodwill impairment test as of August 31, 2013, the fair value of the Company’s reporting units significantly exceeded their carrying value. Thus, no indicators of impairment existed.
Amounts recorded as goodwill in the Company’s accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets are attributable to the Real Estate Franchise Services reportable segment. The following table presents changes to goodwill for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 (in thousands):

On April 16, 2010, the Company entered into a credit agreement with several lenders and administered by a bank, collectively referred to herein as “The 2010 Senior Secured Credit Facility.” The 2010 Senior Secured Credit Facility consisted of a $215,000,000 term loan facility and a $10,000,000 revolving loan facility.
On December 31, 2012, the 2010 Senior Secured Credit Facility was amended providing for an additional term loan in an aggregate principal amount equal to $45,000,000. The proceeds were used to fund the acquisition of certain assets of RE/MAX of Texas. See Note 2, Acquisition, for additional disclosures regarding this acquisition.
On July 31, 2013, the Company entered into a new credit agreement with several lenders and administered by a bank, referred to herein as the “2013 Senior Secured Credit Facility.” In connection therewith, proceeds received were used to re-pay existing indebtedness pursuant to the Company’s 2010 Senior Secured Credit Facility. The 2013 Senior Secured Credit Facility consists of a $230,000,000 term loan facility and a $10,000,000 revolving loan facility. The proceeds provided by these term loans were used to refinance and repay existing indebtedness and for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and general corporate purposes. Interest rates with respect to the term and revolving loans are based, at the Company’s option, on (a) adjusted LIBOR, provided that LIBOR shall be no less than 1% plus a maximum applicable margin of 3% or (b) ABR, provided that ABR shall be no less than 2%, which is equal to the greater of (1) JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.’s prime rate; (2) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.5% or (3) calculated Eurodollar Rate plus 1.0%, plus a maximum applicable margin of 2%. The applicable margin will be adjusted quarterly beginning in the first quarter of 2014 based on the Company’s total leverage ratio as defined in the 2013 Senior Secured Credit Facility. The 2010 Senior Secured Credit Facility was, and the 2013 Senior Secured Credit Facility is, structured as loan syndications, whereby several lenders individually loaned specific amounts to the Company and the Company is obligated to repay each individual lender. Therefore, the Company evaluated if the terms of amounts owed to each lender under the 2010 Senior Secured Credit Facility were substantially different than the amounts owed to each lender under the 2013 Senior Secured Credit Facility. For amounts owed to lenders with terms that were substantially different or for lenders that did not participate in the 2013 Senior Secured Credit Facility, the Company accounted for the contemporaneous exchange of cash as early extinguishments of debt and recorded a loss of $1,664,000 related to unamortized debt discount and issuance costs during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013. For amounts owed to lenders with terms that were not substantially different, the Company accounted for the contemporaneous exchange of cash as a modification. In connection with the 2013 Senior Secured Credit Facility, the Company incurred costs of $3,219,000, of which $1,301,000 was recorded in “Debt issuance costs, net” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are being amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the 2013 Senior Secured Credit Facility and the remaining $1,918,000 was expensed as incurred.
The Company is required to make principal payments out of excess cash flow, as defined in the 2013 Senior Secured Credit Facility, as well as from the proceeds of certain asset sales, proceeds from the issuance of indebtedness and from insurance recoveries. As of September 30, 2013, the Company expects it will make an excess cash flow payment of $15,000,000 in the first quarter of 2014. Mandatory principal payments of $575,000 are due quarterly until the facility matures on July 31, 2020. During the nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company made mandatory principal excess cash flow prepayments in accordance with the 2010 Senior Secured Credit Facility of $8,000,000 and $6,123,500, respectively. The Company accounted for these mandatory principal prepayments as early extinguishments of debt and recorded a loss during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 of approximately $134,000 and $136,000, respectively, related to unamortized debt discount and issuance costs. The Company may make optional prepayments of the term loan at any time; however, no such optional prepayments were made during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 or 2012.
The estimated fair value of the Company’s debt as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 represents the amount that would be paid to transfer or redeem the debt in an orderly transaction between market participants at that date and maximizes the use of observable inputs. The fair value of the Company’s debt was estimated using a market approach based on the amount at the measurement date that the Company would pay to enter into the identical liability, since quoted prices for the Company’s debt instruments are not available. As a result, the Company has classified the fair value of its 2013 Senior Secured Credit Facility as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The carrying amounts of the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facility are included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in “Current portion of debt” and “Debt, net of current portion.” The carrying value of the Senior Secured Credit Facility was $228,957,000 and $232,326,000 as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The fair value of the Senior Secured Credit Facility was $229,712,000 and $233,046,000 as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
The Company had no borrowings drawn on the revolving loan facility during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. The Company must pay a quarterly commitment fee equal to 0.5% on the average daily amount of the unused portion of the revolving loan facility.

(6) Redeemable Preferred Units and Members’ Deficit
Redeemable Preferred Units
At September 30, 2013, the Company had one series of redeemable preferred units outstanding (“Class A preferred units”) with an initial optional redemption date of April 16, 2014. The total number of authorized Class A preferred units was 150,000 and were held by Weston Presidio. As the holder of the outstanding Class A preferred units, Weston Presidio had voting rights and was entitled to receive a cumulative preferential yield of 10% per annum. As described in Note 12, Subsequent Events, in connection with the IPO, the Class A preferred units were converted into (i) a new preferred membership interest that reflected Weston Presidio’s liquidation preference and (ii) a common interest that reflected Weston Presidio’s pro-rata share of the residual equity value of RMCO. On October 7, 2013, the Company used the proceeds it received from RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. to pay Weston Presidio’s $49,850,000 liquidity preference associated with its preferred membership interest and to fully redeem all of its outstanding common membership interests at a price per common unit equal to the public offering price per share of RE/MAX Holdings, Inc.’s Class A common stock, less underwriting discounts, totaling $76,931,250.
Common Units
As of September 30, 2013, the total number of authorized Class B common units was 900,000 of which 52,500 were reserved for issuance under a unit option plan. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had granted options for 31,500 Class B common units under its 2011 Unit Option Plan to certain employees of one of its wholly owned subsidiaries. See Note 7, Equity-Based Compensation Plan, for further disclosure regarding the unit options granted by the Company during 2012. The remaining 847,500 authorized Class B common units were issued and outstanding with no par value and were held by RIHI. RIHI, in its capacity as a holder of Class B common units, had voting rights, was entitled to receive distributions subject to certain limitations as defined by RMCO’s Third Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement, and, upon liquidation or dissolution, was entitled to receive assets available for distribution. There were no mandatory redemption or sinking fund provisions with respect to such Class B common units. The Class B common units were subordinate to the Class A preferred units, to the extent of the preference associated with such Class A units, with respect to distributions and rights upon liquidation, winding up, and dissolution of the Company.
As described in Note 12, Subsequent Events, and the Reorganization Transactions which occurred in connection with the IPO, all outstanding RMCO Class B common units were exchanged for newly issued common units of RMCO. Additionally, RMCO effectuated a 25 for 1 split of the then existing number of outstanding newly issued common units of RMCO so that one common unit could be acquired with the net proceeds received in the IPO from the sale of one share of RE/MAX Holdings, Inc.’s Class A common stock, after the deduction of underwriting discounts and commissions.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the ending balance in “Accumulated other comprehensive income” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets of $1,563,000 and $1,747,000, respectively, was entirely related to foreign currency translation adjustments.
|
(7) Equity-Based Compensation Plan
During 2012, the Company adopted an equity-based compensation plan (the “Plan”) pursuant to which the Company’s Board of Managers may grant unit options. Through September 30, 2013, the Company had only granted options settleable in units. The Plan authorizes grants to purchase up to 52,500 units of authorized but unissued common units. Under the terms of the Plan, the exercise price of options granted under the Plan can be no less than the fair value of the underlying security on the date of grant. The term of the option cannot exceed 10 years, and the options will vest as specified in the option grant agreement. At September 30, 2013, there were 21,000 additional unit options available for the Company to grant under the Plan.
The grant-date fair value of each option award was estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. No option awards were granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The assumptions for 2012 grants are provided in the following table. On the grant date, the Company did not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term of the option. As such, the “simplified” method as outlined in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110 was used to derive the expected term. Since the Company’s units were not publicly traded and its units were not traded privately, expected volatility was estimated based on the average historical volatility of similar entities with publicly traded shares. The risk-free rate for the expected term of the option was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the date of grant.

The grant-date estimated fair value of options granted during the year ended 2012 was $56.83. A portion of the options granted in 2012 vested on the grant date, and the remaining options vested on June 15, 2013. Total compensation expense on the options granted in 2012 recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $701,000. As the options were granted in the fourth quarter of 2012, no compensation expense was recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. As of September 30, 2013, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to unit options granted under the Plan. In October 2013 and in connection with the IPO and the Reorganization Transactions, the unit options were split 25 for 1 and then substituted for 787,500 options to acquire shares of RE/MAX Holdings, Inc.’s Class A common stock.

(8) Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
The Company leases offices and equipment under noncancelable operating leases, subject to certain provisions for renewal options and escalation clauses.
In 2010, the Company became the primary lessee for all facilities located on its corporate headquarters property and issued subleases to two retail tenants already established on the property. The subleases range from 4,000 square feet to 10,500 square feet, have initial lease terms ranging from 5 to 10 years and renewal options ranging from two 5-year renewal options to nine 5-year renewal options. Anticipated revenue from these subleases exceeds the expected costs that will be incurred by the Company.
During March 2011, the Company entered into a sublease agreement with an unrelated third party to lease up to 20,000 square feet of the office space on its corporate headquarters property. The estimated costs the Company expected to incur related to the subleased space exceeded the anticipated revenue the Company expected to receive under the sublease agreement. As such, the Company recorded a liability with the related loss on the sublease of approximately $1,932,000. The liability was determined using a risk-free rate to discount the estimated future net cash flows, consisting of the minimum lease payments to the lessor, estimated executory costs related to the subleased space and anticipated payments the Company expected to receive under the sublease agreement. In November 2012, the sublease was terminated prior to its expiration date. As a result, the Company commenced efforts to market the office space for sublease with a new tenant. As of September 30, 2013, a sublease agreement was not executed, as such, the Company did not record an adjustment to the existing liability. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the short-term portion of the liability was approximately $375,000 and $351,000, respectively, and is included in “Accrued liabilities” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the long-term portion of the liability was approximately $689,000 and $972,000, respectively, and is included in “Other liabilities” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
During 2008, the Company closed several real estate brokerage offices in the Pacific Northwest and Washington, DC areas of the U.S. Subsequent to 2008, the Company closed four additional real estate brokerage offices in the Pacific Northwest and Washington, DC areas. In connection with these office closures, the Company abandoned office leases with remaining lease terms of eleven months to eight years. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company abandoned an additional two leases for offices located in the Pacific Northwest with remaining lease terms of three months. The Company recorded a liability, initially measured at its estimated fair value, for costs that will continue to be incurred under these contracts for the remaining lease terms with the related charge recorded to operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, total future cash payments were estimated to be $663,000 and $1,061,000, respectively. This liability will be increased by accreting charges over the terms of the leases via charges to rent expense, based on discount rates ranging from 2.75% to 18.03%, and will be reduced by the actual lease payments made. The following table presents a rollforward of the estimated fair value liability established for these costs from January 1, 2013 to September 30, 2013 (in thousands):

Litigation
The Company is subject to litigation claims arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes that it has adequately accrued for legal matters as appropriate. The Company records litigation accruals for legal matters which are both probable and estimable. For legal proceedings for which there is a reasonable possibility of loss (meaning those losses for which the likelihood is more than remote but less than probable), the Company has determined that it does not have material exposure, or it is unable to develop a range of reasonably possible losses.
Other Contingencies
The Company maintains a self-insurance program for health benefits. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company recorded a liability of $278,000 and $360,000, respectively, related to this program.
Tax Matters
The Company is a “flow-through” entity for tax purposes. As such, U.S. federal and state income taxes on net domestic taxable earnings are the obligation of the Company’s members. Accordingly, no provision for U.S. income taxes has been made in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements; however, the Company makes distributions to its members to enable them to satisfy their tax obligations. On September 30, 2013, the Company agreed to make tax distributions to Weston Presidio and RIHI of $1,000,000 and $5,650,000, respectively to satisfy each member’s tax obligations for the period from January 1, 2013 through the closing date of the IPO. The liability for this tax distribution has been recorded in “Income Taxes Payable” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
In contrast to the Company’s domestic entities, the Company’s foreign entities are taxable entities. Income taxes incurred by the foreign subsidiaries are recorded in the “Provision for income taxes” in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. As of September 30, 2013, the Company does not believe it has any significant uncertain tax positions.

(9) Guarantees
In July 2012, the Company entered into a guarantee of performance by Tails d/b/a RE/MAX Central Atlantic Region, Inc. of all of the obligations under the franchise registration in the Commonwealth of Virginia, and all of the preopening obligations under the franchise agreements executed at any time from July 23, 2012 until such time that this guarantee is no longer required by the Commonwealth of Virginia. The Company did not incur any payments under this guarantee in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 or 2012, respectively and does not anticipate that it will incur any payments through the duration of the guarantee.
In May 2013, the Company entered into a guarantee of the full and prompt payment and performance when due of all obligations due to a financial institution under a commercial line-of-credit agreement and note entered into by the Company’s equity-method investee, in which the Company has a 50% interest. The term of the line-of-credit agreement is twelve months and the total amount of advances requested and unpaid principal balance cannot exceed $12,500,000. The line of credit bears interest at 0.50% over the financial institution’s base rate with a floor of 4.0%. The Company had entered into a similar guarantee during May 2012, which expired as of May 2013. The outstanding balance on the line of credit was approximately $3,225,000 and $9,285,000 as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The Company did not incur any payments under this guarantee in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and does not anticipate that it will incur any payments through the duration of the guarantee.

(10) Related-Party Transactions
The Company’s real estate brokerage operations pay advertising fees to regional and international advertising funds, which promote the RE/MAX brand. These advertising funds are corporations owned by a majority stockholder of RIHI as trustee for RE/MAX agents. This stockholder does not receive any compensation from these corporations, as all funds received by the corporations are required to be spent on advertising for the respective regions. During the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company’s real estate brokerage operations paid $286,000 and $292,000, respectively, to these advertising funds. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company’s real estate brokerage operations paid $859,000 and $865,000, respectively, to these advertising funds. These payments are included in “Selling, operating and administrative” expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
The Company’s real estate brokerage operations in the Washington, DC area pay regional continuing franchise fees, broker fees and franchise sales revenue, as do all other RE/MAX franchisees, to a regional franchisor, Tails. Several of the Company’s officers and stockholders of RIHI were also stockholders and officers of Tails. During the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the real estate brokerage operations expensed $97,000 and $74,000, respectively, in fees to Tails. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the real estate brokerage operations expensed $244,000 and $196,000, respectively, in fees to Tails. These payments are included in “Selling, operating and administrative expenses” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). In addition, the Company’s owned real estate brokerage operations in the Washington DC area record a corresponding payable to Tails and its affiliated regional advertising fund. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the amount of the payable was $2,325,000 and $2,270,000, respectively, and is included in “Accounts payable to affiliates” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company receives continuing franchise fees, broker fees, franchise sales and other franchise revenue from regional franchisors. Several of the Company’s officers and stockholders of RIHI were also stockholders and officers of two of these regional franchisors. During the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company received $912,000 and $858,000, respectively, in revenue from these entities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company received $2,648,000 and $2,550,000, respectively, in revenue from these entities. These amounts are included in continuing franchise fees, broker fees and franchise sales revenue in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). As described in Note 12, Subsequent Events, on October 7, 2013, the business assets of these two regional franchisors were acquired by RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. and contributed to RMCO.
Prior to 2013, the Company paid an annual sponsorship fee to Sanctuary, Inc., a private golf course owned by the majority stockholders of RIHI. The Company was named as the presenting sponsor of all charity golf tournaments held at Sanctuary, Inc. Further, the majority stockholders have made and continue to make the golf course available to the Company for business purposes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the majority stockholders of RIHI who own Sanctuary, Inc. allowed the Company to use the golf course for business purposes at no charge. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company paid $283,000 and $878,000, respectively in sponsorship fees and green fees to Sanctuary, Inc.
The Company also provides services to certain affiliated entities such as accounting, legal, marketing, technology, human resources and public relations as it allows these companies to share its leased office space. During the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the total amounts allocated for services rendered and rent for office space provided on behalf of affiliated entities were $838,000 and $828,000, respectively.

(11) Segment information
The Company has two reportable segments, (1) Real Estate Franchise Services and (2) Brokerage and Other. Management evaluates the operating results of the Company’s reportable segments based upon revenue and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”). The Company’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies.
Adjusted EBITDA for the reportable segments excludes depreciation, amortization, interest and taxes and is adjusted for items in a manner consistent with the calculation of the Company’s compliance with debt covenants. Adjusted EBITDA for the reportable segments is also a key factor that is used by the Company’s internal decision makers to (i) determine how to allocate resources to segments and (ii) evaluate the effectiveness of management for purposes of annual and other incentive compensation plans. The additional items that are adjusted to determine Adjusted EBITDA for the reportable segments include gains and losses on the sale of assets and sublease activity, gains and losses on the early extinguishment of debt, depreciation expense, interest expense, loss on the sale of assets and loss on the extinguishment of debt from non-controlling interest, stock-based compensation, non-cash deferred rent expense and acquisition transaction and reorganization costs. The Company’s Real Estate Franchise Services segment comprises the operations of the Company’s owned and independent global franchising operations under the RE/MAX brand name. All of the brokerage offices in the Real Estate Franchise Services segment are franchised. The Company’s Brokerage and Other reportable segment includes the Company’s brokerage services business, the elimination of intersegment revenue and other consolidation entries as well as corporate-wide professional services expenses.
The following tables present the results of the Company’s reportable segments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively (in thousands):

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated balance sheet, statement of income (loss) and statement of cash flows have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X for interim financial information. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information required by GAAP or Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management these financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the balance sheet and results of operations for the interim period presented.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and comprise the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and with Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In compliance with those instructions, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis and include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2013, the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 and changes in redeemable preferred units and members’ deficit for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Interim results may not be indicative of full year performance.
Business
RMCO, LLC (a Delaware limited liability company) and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “RMCO”) are one of the world’s leading franchisors of residential and commercial real estate brokerage services throughout the United States (“U.S.”) and globally. The Company also operates real estate brokerage services businesses in the U.S. The Company’s revenue is derived from continuing franchise fees, annual dues from agents, broker fees, franchise sales and other franchise revenue (which consist of fees from initial sales of and renewals of franchises, regional franchise fees, preferred marketing arrangements, approved supplier programs and event-based revenue from training and other programs) and brokerage revenue (which consists of fees assessed to the Company’s owned brokerages for services provided to their affiliated real estate agents). A franchise grants the broker-owner a license to use the RE/MAX brand, trademark, promotional and operating materials and concepts.
The Company reports its operations in two reportable segments: (1) Real Estate Franchise Services and (2) Brokerage and Other. The Company’s Real Estate Franchise Services reportable segment comprises the operations of the Company’s owned and independent global franchising operations under the RE/MAX brand name. The Company’s Brokerage and Other reportable segment includes the Company’s brokerage services business, and reflects the elimination of intersegment revenue and other consolidation entries as well as corporate-wide professional services expenses.
RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. was formed as a Delaware corporation on June 25, 2013 and was capitalized on July 8, 2013. As of September 30, 2013, RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. had not engaged in any business or activities except in connection with its formation and the negotiation of the acquisition of the business assets of HBN, Inc. (“HBN”) and Tails, Inc. (“Tails”). On October 1, 2013, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission declared effective a registration statement relating to shares of Class A common stock of RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. to be offered and sold in an initial public offering (the “IPO”). On October 7, 2013, RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. completed the IPO of 11,500,000 shares of Class A common stock at a public offering price of at a price of $22.00 per share. RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. used a portion of the proceeds received from the IPO to acquire the business assets of HBN and Tails and contributed these assets to RMCO in exchange for common units in RMCO. The remaining proceeds received by RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. were used to purchase common membership interests in RMCO following the RMCO reorganization transactions as described in Note 12, Subsequent Events. As a result, RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. became a member and sole manager of the Company and, in that capacity, operates and controls all of the business and affairs of the Company. Subsequent to the closing of the IPO, the results of the Company will be included in the consolidated financial statements of RE/MAX Holdings, Inc.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant areas in which management uses assumptions include, among other things, the establishment of the allowances for doubtful trade accounts and notes receivable, the determination of the estimated lives of intangible assets, estimates used to calculate unit-based compensation expense, the estimates of the fair value of reporting units used in the annual assessment of goodwill and the fair value of assets acquired. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Deferred offering costs
Through September 30, 2013, the Company incurred approximately $4,816,000 in costs related to the IPO. These costs have been deferred and were recorded as a reduction to the proceeds received from the IPO at the time of closing, which occurred on October 7, 2013. Deferred offering costs are included in “Other assets” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. No costs were deferred as of December 31, 2012.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”), RE/MAX Holdings, Inc., including its subsidiaries, meets the definition of an emerging growth company. RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. and the Company have irrevocably elected to opt out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards pursuant to Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act.
In March 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity (ASU 2013-05). This amendment clarifies the applicable guidance for the release of cumulative translation adjustment into net earnings. When an entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity, the entity is required to apply the guidance in FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 830-30, Translation of Financial Statements, to release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net earnings. ASU 2013-05 is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Effective January 1, 2013, the Company adopted ASU No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2013-02). The adoption of ASU 2013-02 concerns only presentation and disclosure and did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

The following unaudited pro forma financial information reflects the consolidated results of operations of the Company as if the acquisition of RE/MAX of Texas had occurred on January 1, 2012. The historical financial information has been adjusted to give effect to events that are (1) directly attributed to the acquisition, (2) factually supportable and (3) expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results. Such items include interest expense related to debt issued to fund the acquisition as well as additional amortization expense associated with the valuation of the acquired franchise agreement. This unaudited pro forma information should not be relied upon as necessarily being indicative of the historical results that would have been obtained if the acquisition had actually occurred on that date, nor of the results that may be obtained in the future.

The grant-date fair value of each option award was estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. No option awards were granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The assumptions for 2012 grants are provided in the following table. On the grant date, the Company did not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term of the option. As such, the “simplified” method as outlined in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110 was used to derive the expected term. Since the Company’s units were not publicly traded and its units were not traded privately, expected volatility was estimated based on the average historical volatility of similar entities with publicly traded shares. The risk-free rate for the expected term of the option was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the date of grant.

During 2008, the Company closed several real estate brokerage offices in the Pacific Northwest and Washington, DC areas of the U.S. Subsequent to 2008, the Company closed four additional real estate brokerage offices in the Pacific Northwest and Washington, DC areas. In connection with these office closures, the Company abandoned office leases with remaining lease terms of eleven months to eight years. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company abandoned an additional two leases for offices located in the Pacific Northwest with remaining lease terms of three months. The Company recorded a liability, initially measured at its estimated fair value, for costs that will continue to be incurred under these contracts for the remaining lease terms with the related charge recorded to operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, total future cash payments were estimated to be $663,000 and $1,061,000, respectively. This liability will be increased by accreting charges over the terms of the leases via charges to rent expense, based on discount rates ranging from 2.75% to 18.03%, and will be reduced by the actual lease payments made. The following table presents a rollforward of the estimated fair value liability established for these costs from January 1, 2013 to September 30, 2013 (in thousands):

The Company also provides services to certain affiliated entities such as accounting, legal, marketing, technology, human resources and public relations as it allows these companies to share its leased office space. During the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the total amounts allocated for services rendered and rent for office space provided on behalf of affiliated entities were $838,000 and $828,000, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the total amounts allocated for services rendered and rent for office space provided on behalf of affiliated entities were $2,459,000 and $2,515,000, respectively. In these cases, the Company bills affiliated companies for their actual or pro rata share of such expenses. Such amounts are generally paid within 30 days and no such amounts were outstanding at September 30, 2013 or December 31, 2012. In addition, affiliated regional franchisors have current outstanding continuing franchise fees, broker fees and franchise sales revenue amounts due to the Company. Such amounts are included in the “Accounts receivable from affiliates” and “Accounts payable to affiliates” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and comprise the balances from the following entities (in thousands):
