News Summary

Neutral

Zillow delivered strong Q1 2026 results with 18% YoY revenue growth, $46M net income, and 92% operating cash flow increase, reaching top-25 lender status and expanding its Rentals business. However, the company faces a significant FTC antitrust lawsuit (motion to dismiss denied, entering discovery phase) over its $100M exclusive Redfin multifamily deal, with legal expenses rising to ~$20M in Q2, and guidance for Q2 came in slightly below consensus expectations.

Red flags

  • FTC antitrust lawsuit survived motion to dismiss on May 7, 2026; now entering discovery with material litigation risk and $20M+ quarterly legal costs
  • Q2 2026 revenue guidance midpoint ($757.5M) came in below Wall Street consensus, triggering ~6% post-earnings stock decline
  • Regulatory headwind: $100M Redfin exclusive multifamily deal is core subject of FTC/state AGs lawsuit involving five states; outcome uncertain
