Revenue came in at $1.15 billion, clearing the $1.06 billion consensus by 8.85%, though it still slipped 2.4% from a year earlier as the company sold 2,946 homes into a market where mortgage rates hover near 7% and clearance rates have fallen nearly 25% year-over-year. The earnings picture was less encouraging, with EPS of -$0.12 missing the -$0.10 consensus estimate by 15.94%, as a deeply negative operating cash flow of $279 million, driven by a $212 million inventory build, weighed on results. The single brightest signal may be forward-looking: Opendoor's Q2 guidance calls for revenue of $1.45 billion to $1.53 billion and, notably, Adjusted EBITDA of $10 million to $20 million, which would mark the company's first positive Adjusted EBITDA quarter in recent history, even as it sharply curtails acquisitions to roughly 1,700 homes amid lingering concerns about its stock exchange listing status.

Key Takeaways

  • Revenue exceeded high end of guidance range ($1.0B-$1.075B) at $1.153B
  • Improved conversion performance enabled 4% YoY growth in home acquisitions despite higher spread levels
  • Fixed operating expenses reduced by $19 million versus Q1 2024 to $39 million
  • Adjusted Operating Expenses declined to $84 million from $107 million in Q1 2024
  • Contribution Margin of 4.7% came in at high end of guidance range
  • Adjusted EBITDA loss of $(30) million ahead of high end of guidance range
