Compass ( (COMP) ) just unveiled an announcement.

On January 7, 2025, Compass, Inc. held a special meeting of stockholders at which shareholders overwhelmingly approved the issuance of Compass Class A common stock to stockholders of Anywhere Real Estate Inc. in connection with their planned merger, as well as the option to adjourn the meeting if needed, though adjournment proved unnecessary due to a strong quorum and decisive support. In a joint announcement dated January 7, 2026, Compass and Anywhere reported that stockholders of both companies had overwhelmingly approved all merger-related proposals at their respective special meetings, with approximately 99% of votes cast at Compass supporting the share issuance and 72.4% of Anywhere’s outstanding shares voting to adopt the merger agreement; the merger, expected to close on January 9, 2026 subject to customary conditions, is set to combine Compass’s tech-driven brokerage platform with Anywhere’s extensive franchise, brokerage, relocation, and title operations, potentially creating a more powerful player in residential real estate and affecting agents, franchise owners, and other stakeholders across both networks.

The most recent analyst rating on (COMP) stock is a Hold with a $11.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Compass stock, see the COMP Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on COMP Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, COMP is a Neutral.

The score is driven primarily by moderate financial performance (stronger cash generation but still negative profitability) and favorable technical trend/momentum. Positive earnings-call guidance and operational highlights help, while valuation is constrained by a negative P/E and corporate-event risk remains due to merger-related litigation and financing complexity.
