Re/Max Holdings ( (RMAX) ) has shared an announcement.

On April 26, 2026, RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. entered into an Arrangement Agreement and Plan of Merger with The Real Brokerage Inc. and several subsidiaries to combine into a new holding company to be named Real REMAX Group. Upon closing, RE/MAX shareholders may elect either stock or cash consideration, within an aggregate cash range of $60 million to $80 million, with Real shareholders expected to own roughly 59% and RE/MAX shareholders about 41% of the combined entity at the midpoint cash level.

The transaction structure includes a 10-for-1 share consolidation of The Real Brokerage, an exchange of its shares into the new holding company, and a two-step merger in which RE/MAX becomes an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Real REMAX Group, whose stock will list on Nasdaq while RE/MAX and Real shares are delisted. Concurrently, RE/MAX agreed to an internal RIHI merger to collapse its Class B share and OpCo unit structure, secured voting support agreements from key shareholders of RE/MAX, Real, and RIHI, and amended its tax receivable agreement to terminate contingent payments upon a qualifying change of control, steps that collectively streamline governance, reduce future tax-related obligations, and lock in substantial shareholder backing but leave closing subject to regulatory clearances, court approvals, and shareholder votes.

The most recent analyst rating on (RMAX) stock is a Buy with a $13.80 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Re/Max Holdings stock, see the RMAX Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on RMAX Stock

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

Overall score reflects improving profitability, cash generation, and a sharply stronger balance sheet, tempered by ongoing revenue pressure and reduced visibility into core margin structure. Technicals are bullish but overbought, while valuation is moderate (P/E ~18.5) with no dividend yield data. Guidance and strategic traction from the earnings call and the announced acquisition provide additional support, partially offset by housing-market and settlement-related risks.
