$CSGP On May 28, 2026, CoStar Group, through its subsidiary CoStar Realty Information, entered into a stock purchase agreement to acquire Zonda, a leading provider of new home construction data, homebuilder software, and residential real estate marketplaces, for
$800 million in cash. Zonda serves more than 3,000 customers across the homebuilding ecosystem in North America and generates predominantly subscription-based revenue with strong margins and 104% net customer retention.

$1 trillion U.S. new residential construction market, create cross-sell opportunities across its commercial and residential franchises, enhance digital marketing experiences with Matterport technology, and deliver an accretive contribution to adjusted earnings in the first full year after closing.
