Letter to Stockholders

April 3, 2026

To our stockholders:

You are cordially invited to attend the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders (the "Annual Meeting") of Compass, Inc. ("Compass"), which will be held virtually on May 14, 2026 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Please see additional information about our Annual Meeting in the section entitled "Important Information About Annual Meeting" in the proxy statement.

2025 was a year of meaningful progress and strategic expansion for Compass.

In 2025, the residential real estate market continued to face elevated mortgage rates, affordability challenges, and constrained inventory levels. Despite these headwinds, the Compass team and the experienced real estate professionals affiliated with our owned brokerages and independent franchisees delivered another year of excellent results that strengthened the foundation of our business.

Compass is the number one residential real estate brokerage in the United States by sales volume. Importantly, we achieved strong financial results in 2025. Our Net Loss was $58.5 million, compared to $154.4 million in 2024, and we delivered record full‑year revenue of $6.96 billion, record Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $293.4 million, Operating Cash Flow of $216.7 million and positive Free Cash Flow(1) of $203.3 million, marking our second consecutive year of positive Free Cash Flow generation. We remained focused on cost discipline and operational efficiency while continuing to invest in expanding our agent base, integrating and scaling recent acquisitions, and strengthening our proprietary end‑to‑end technology platform.

During 2025, we also advanced key strategic initiatives, including the integration and expansion of the Christie’s International Real Estate affiliate business. This business continues to provide Compass with a scalable, higher‑margin revenue opportunity, enabling us to partner with leading independently operated brokerages across the country.

Looking forward to 2026, we enter the year with strong momentum and a clear strategic roadmap.

Early in 2026, we closed the Anywhere Real Estate transaction, significantly expanding our national presence, accelerating our growth in the franchise, title and integrated services sectors, and strengthening our ability to serve real estate professionals across varied business models. As we integrate Anywhere into Compass, we are focused on capturing planned synergies, operating with discipline, and ensuring a seamless experience for real estate professionals and their clients, franchisees, and partners.

Despite the significant events that have taken place over the past few months, our playbook remains largely unchanged: we will continue to maintain disciplined cost management, grow through organic and inorganic means, expand margins through attach‑rate improvement and scaling higher‑margin businesses, and strengthen our technology platform to deliver differentiated outcomes for real estate professionals and clients. As we execute this playbook and the housing market normalizes, we believe we can drive significant top-and-bottom-line growth for our stockholders.

We rely on the extraordinary efforts of employees and real estate professionals and guidance of our Board of Directors.

I want to thank the entire Compass team for their dedication and resilience during another demanding year in the residential real estate industry. I also extend my gratitude to the Board for its continued leadership and support as we pursue our vision for the future of residential real estate.

Thank you for your support of our company. Your vote is important.

Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, please vote as soon as possible. As an alternative to voting at the Annual Meeting, you may vote prior to the Annual Meeting via the internet, by telephone, or by mail. Voting by any of these methods will ensure your representation at the Annual Meeting. We look forward to seeing you at the Annual Meeting.

On behalf of the Board of Directors, management, and employees of Compass, I thank you for your continued support.


Sincerely, Robert L. Reffkin Robert L. Reffkin Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer

Important Information About Annual Meeting

Our 2026 annual meeting of stockholders (the "Annual Meeting") will be conducted in a virtual only format, via live video webcast. We believe the virtual meeting format for the Annual Meeting encourages attendance and participation by a broader group of stockholders, while also reducing the costs and environmental impact associated with an in-person meeting.

•You may log in to the meeting platform beginning at 12:45 p.m. Eastern Time on May 14, 2026. The meeting will begin promptly at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

Proposal 1: Election of Directors

The Board of Directors of Compass, Inc. ("Board of Directors" or "Board") currently consists of eight directors and is divided into three classes with staggered three-year terms. At each annual meeting of stockholders, the successors to the directors whose terms will then expire will be elected to serve from the time of election until the third annual meeting following their election and until the director's successor is duly elected and qualified.

Class II directors with a term expiring at the Annual Meeting consist of Allan Leinwand, Charles Phillips and Pamela Thomas-Graham. Class III directors with a term expiring at the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders consist of Josh McCarter and Steven Sordello. Class I directors with a term expiring at the 2028 annual meeting of stockholders consist of Robert Reffkin, Frank Martell and Dawanna Williams.

At the recommendation of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, our Board of Directors has approved the nomination of our Class II directors, Allan Leinwand, Charles Phillips and Pamela Thomas-Graham, for re-election for three-year terms expiring at the 2029 annual meeting of stockholders and until such director’s successor is duly elected and qualified or until such director’s earlier death, resignation, disqualification, or removal. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and Board of Directors evaluated each of the director nominees and concluded that it is in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders for each of these individuals to continue to serve as a director. The Board of Directors believes that each director nominee brings a range of relevant experiences and overall diversity of perspectives that is essential to good governance and leadership of our Company.

Each person nominated for election has agreed to serve if elected, and management and the Board of Directors have no reason to believe that the director nominees will be unable to serve. If, however, prior to the Annual Meeting, the Board of Directors should learn that a director nominee will be unable to serve for any reason, the proxies that otherwise would have been voted for the nominee will be voted for a substitute nominee as selected by the Board of Directors. Alternatively, the proxies, at the Board of Director’s discretion, may be voted for no director nominees as a result of the inability of a nominee to serve. Each director nominee has consented to being named in this proxy statement and to serve if elected.

The election of director nominees requires a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of the shares of our common stock presented virtually or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Accordingly, the three nominees receiving the most "FOR" votes will be elected as the Class II directors.

As you decide how to vote on this proposal, we encourage you to review the biographies of the director nominees below, which include information regarding the specific and particular experience, qualifications, attributes and skills of each nominee that led the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board of Directors to believe that the director should serve on the Board of Directors, as well as the "Our Corporate Governance and Board of Directors" section of this proxy statement for more information about our Board of Directors and our corporate governance practices.


The Board of Directors recommends you vote "FOR" each of the director nominees.
