Altus Group Ends Sale Review as CEO Exits, Mike Gordon Named Executive Chair and Next CEO

Directors opted for independence following a months-long review, with a detailed plan due at the Nov. 20 Investor Day.

Overview

  • After evaluating multiple proposals, the board decided the company will remain independent and accelerate its strategy as a pure‑play CRE data, software and analytics platform.
  • Jim Hannon departed immediately; former chief Mike Gordon became Executive Chair and will reassume the CEO role in Q1 2026, as Raymond Mikulich stepped down as chair but stayed on the board.
  • Third‑quarter results improved, with revenue up 2.2% to $133.3 million and a $0.5 million profit from continuing operations, aided by portfolio optimization and restructuring.
  • The company lowered its 2025 outlook to 0%–2% revenue growth and trimmed its operating margin expansion target versus August guidance.
  • Shares fell more than 15% Friday following the earnings, leadership changes and review outcome; management flagged potential sales of noncore businesses, with further details expected at Investor Day.
