Exhibit 99.1
La Rosa Holdings Corp. Reports 34% Year-Over-Year
Increase in Revenue to
$17.5 Million for First Quarter of 2025
Gross Profit Increased 32% Year-Over-Year to $1.5 Million in Q1 2025
Residential Real Estate Services Revenue Increased
39% to $14.3 Million in Q1
2025 vs Q1 2024
Celebration, FL – May 29, 2025 – La Rosa Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ: LRHC) (“La Rosa” or the “Company”), a real estate and PropTech company, today provided a business update and reported financial results for the for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.
Key Financial Highlights
| ● | Total revenue increased 34% year-over-year to $17.5 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025 from $13.1 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024. |
| ● | Residential real estate services revenue increased by approximately $4.0 million to $14.3 million, or 39%, for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025 from $10.2 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024 |
| ● | Property management revenue increased by approximately $432 thousand to approximately $3.0 million, or 17%, for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025 from $2.5 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024 |
| ● | Real Estate Brokerage Services (Commercial) revenue increased by approximately $28 thousand to $57 thousand, or approx. 96% for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025 from $29 thousand for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024 |
| ● | Gross profit increased by approximately $376 thousand, or 32%, year-over-year, to $1.5 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025 from $1.2 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024 |
Joe La Rosa, CEO of La Rosa, commented, “We are pleased with our strong first quarter 2025 results. Total revenue grew 34% year-over-year to $17.5 million, and gross profit increased 32% to $1.5 million. We believe that achieving this level of growth during a seasonally slower period reflects the strength of our platform and the disciplined execution of our organic growth strategy. As of April 30, 2025, our agent network has grown to over 2,800 agents nationwide. This growth has been entirely organic, as we have chosen to focus on strengthening our core operations rather than pursuing acquisitions. While our growth strategy remains rooted in organic expansion, it is also supported by real estate brokerage franchisees that enhance our geographic reach and operational scale. Residential real estate services revenue increased by 39% as compared to the same quarter of 2024, property management grew 17.0%, and commercial brokerage revenue nearly doubled.”
“While our reported net loss for the year may appear substantial, it’s important to note that a significant portion of this loss is driven by non-cash and one-time items, primarily related to the change in fair value of our warrant-related derivative liabilities. These liabilities are marked to market each reporting period, but we intend to take proactive steps to restructure them as part of our upcoming treasury strategy. As these liabilities are phased out over time, we expect that their impact on our financials will diminish, ultimately contributing to improved net income and shareholder equity. Excluding these non-cash charges, our core business remains strong and aligned with our long-term growth strategy.”
‘We remain focused on scaling high-performing offices, supporting agent success, and advancing our national and international expansion strategy. Our scalable, agent-centric brokerage model continues to attract top-producing talent by offering competitive and flexible compensation structures, including a revenue share program, a 100% commission option with low fees, and additional income opportunities through ancillary services and integrated technology solutions. With the second quarter already tracking ahead of last year’s pace, we are confident in our ability to deliver continued growth and long-term value for our stockholders,” concluded Mr. La Rosa.
Financial Results
Total revenue for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025, was $17.5 million compared to $13.1 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024. Residential real estate services revenue increased by $4.0 million to $14.3 million, or 39%, for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025, from $10.2 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024. Selling, general and administrative costs, excluding stock-based compensation, for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025, were approximately $4.3 million, compared to $2.6 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.
Total operating expenses were $6.2 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025, as compared to $5.7 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, resulting in a loss from operations of $4.7 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025, as compared to $4.6 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.
Other expense, net for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased approximately $90.5 million compared to other expense, net, for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase in expense in 2025 was primarily due to the loss on issuance of senior secured convertible note for $128.8 million and loss on extinguishment of debt for $152 thousand, offset by a gain of $37.1 million on the fair value of convertible note and warrants and a $0.9 million gain on the change in fair value of a derivative liability.
Net loss was $95.9 million, or $(5.86) basic and diluted loss per share, for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025, compared to net loss of $4.8 million, or $(0.35) basic and diluted loss per share, for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.
