Commercial real estate firm CBRE (NYSE:CBRE) reported Q2 CY2025 results exceeding the market’s revenue expectations, with sales up 16.2% year on year to $9.75 billion. Its non-GAAP profit of $1.19 per share was 11.2% above analysts’ consensus estimates.
A company that generates cash isn’t automatically a winner.
Some businesses stockpile cash but fail to reinvest wisely, limiting their ability to expand.
CBRE’s first quarter results for 2025 reflected broad-based growth across its core business lines, with particular strength in U.S. leasing and capital markets. Management attributed this performance to increased activity in office and industrial leasing, as well as rising transaction volumes in multifamily and industrial asset sales. CEO Bob Sulentic highlighted the company’s “strong business pipelines and improved operational leverage,” while CFO Emma Giamartino pointed to the benefits of recent cost efficiency initiatives, especially in facilities and property management. The quarter’s results were also shaped by the recent integration of new business segments and strategic acquisitions, which contributed to both top- and bottom-line improvements.
Looking back on real estate services stocks’ Q1 earnings, we examine this quarter’s best and worst performers, including CBRE (NYSE:CBRE) and its peers.
CBRE trades at $127.50 per share and has moved almost in lockstep with the market over the last six months. The stock has lost 5.9% while the S&P 500 is down 2.1%. This may have investors wondering how to approach the situation.
A number of stocks fell in the afternoon session after the major indices pulled back (Nasdaq -1.3%, S&P 500 - 1.4%) as Treasury yields rose, reflecting market anxiety over a draft federal budget that could worsen the already wide US fiscal deficit. A poor auction for 20-year U.S. Treasury bonds further raised concerns, as weak demand implies investors are becoming more cautious about holding long-dated U.S. debt.
The S&P 500 (^GSPC) is home to the biggest and most well-known companies in the market, making it a go-to index for investors seeking stability.
But not all large-cap stocks are created equal - some are struggling with slowing growth, declining margins, or increased competition.
A company with profits isn’t always a great investment.
Some struggle to maintain growth, face looming threats, or fail to reinvest wisely, limiting their future potential.
