CBRE Group

CBRE Group, Inc. (CBRE) is the largest commercial real estate services and investment firm in the world, and a provider of critical infrastructure services such as work for data centers. It is based in Dallas, has more than 155,000 employees and serves clients in more than 100 countries. It has four segments. Advisory Services does leasing, property sales, mortgage origination, loan servicing and valuations.

Building Operations & Experience runs facilities and property management and critical infrastructure services. Project Management does program management, project management and cost consulting. Real Estate Investments does investment management, with more than $155 billion of assets under management, and development. In Q3 2026, revenue was $11.5 billion and core EBITDA was $1,001 million.

Bob Sulentic is Chair and Chief Executive Officer. The shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange in US dollars.

The market prices CBRE as a company whose profit depends on property sales and leasing, which follow interest rates and the capital markets. But a growing part of the business is not a deal business. Building Operations & Experience gave $6,856 million of the $11,517 million of revenue in Q3 2026, and the company says that infrastructure services revenue grew 50% to $4.5 billion over 12 months. It expects nearly $7.0 billion of infrastructure services revenue in 2027.

Core EBITDA in Q3 rose 28.5%. The question is how much of this growth lasts when deal activity cools. For the price to rise, three things must be true. Critical infrastructure services must keep growing, with the help of the Onnec purchase of about $610 million.

Advisory profit must hold if sales and leasing slow. The provision for fire safety at Telford Homes must not grow. The next tests are the closing of Onnec, which the company expects around the end of 2026, and the Q4 2026 report in February 2027.

Every filing on SEC EDGAR (CIK 1138118)

• Property sales, leasing and loan origination depend on interest rates and the capital markets. In Q3 2026, US office leasing fell 2% and mortgage origination revenue rose only 1%. A slow market cuts the profit of the Advisory Services segment.
• Growth in critical infrastructure depends on spending by large technology companies on data centers. Revenue in this line grew 80% in the building operations segment in Q3. If customers slow their projects, growth falls. The purchases of Pearce Services in November 2025 and Onnec must also fit well.
• The group has a provision for fire safety work on buildings that its subsidiary Telford Homes built in the past. The provision was $168 million in the first nine months of 2026, and the company excludes it from core results. It can grow if the work costs more.
• Corporate spending on real estate slowed. The company said that Project Management growth was held back by it in Q3, and a one-time cost in Asia Pacific cut the segment's profit growth by six points.
• The new senior notes carry interest of 5.650% and 5.900%. Debt is low against profit, but the cost of new debt raises interest expense.

CBRE had total debt of $6,978 million, not counting non-recourse debt, and cash of $1,683 million at September 30, 2026. Net debt was $5,295 million, which is 1.36 times core EBITDA of $3,902 million over the last 12 months. Read more
