As previously disclosed, eXp World Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) is named as a defendant in a putative nationwide class action on behalf of home buyers captioned Batton et al. v. Compass, Inc., et al. (U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois) (the “Batton Action”). In connection with a related buy-side class action, Tuccori v. At World Properties, et al. (U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois) (the “Tuccori Action”), the Company entered into an Opt-In Settlement Agreement on April 14, 2026 (the “Opt-In Settlement Agreement”) to participate in the settlement structure established in the Tuccori Action (the “Tuccori Settlement”).
On May 26, 2026, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois granted preliminary approval of the Tuccori Settlement, including the Company’s participation pursuant to the Opt-In Settlement Agreement.
The Tuccori Settlement remains subject to final court approval and will be effective following any appeals process, if any. The Company anticipates that the Tuccori Settlement will apply to any claims based on any or all of the same factual predicates as those asserted in the Batton Action.
