1. Nature of Operations

CB Richard Ellis Group, Inc. (formerly known as CBRE Holding, Inc.), a Delaware corporation (which may be referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as “we,” “us,” and “our”), was incorporated on February 20, 2001 and was created to acquire all of the outstanding shares of CB Richard Ellis Services, Inc. (CBRE), an international commercial real estate services firm. Prior to July 20, 2001, we were a wholly owned subsidiary of Blum Strategic Partners, L.P. (Blum Strategic), formerly known as RCBA Strategic Partners, L.P., which is an affiliate of Richard C. Blum, a director of CBRE and our company.

On July 20, 2001, we acquired all of the outstanding stock of CBRE pursuant to an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated May 31, 2001, among CBRE, Blum CB Corp. (Blum CB) and us. Blum CB was merged with and into CBRE with CBRE being the surviving corporation (the 2001 Merger). In July 2003, our global position in the commercial real estate services industry was further solidified as CBRE acquired Insignia Financial Group, Inc. (Insignia). On July 23, 2003, pursuant to an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated May 28, 2003 (the Insignia Acquisition Agreement), by and among us, CBRE, Apple Acquisition Corp. (Apple Acquisition), a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of CBRE, and Insignia, Apple Acquisition was merged with and into Insignia (the Insignia Acquisition). Insignia was the surviving corporation in the Insignia Acquisition and at the effective time of the Insignia Acquisition became a wholly owned subsidiary of CBRE. We have no substantive operations other than our investment in CBRE.

On June 15, 2004, we completed the initial public offering of shares of our Class A common stock (the IPO). In connection with the IPO, we issued and sold 23,180,292 shares of our Class A common stock and received aggregate net proceeds of approximately $135.0 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us. Also in connection with the IPO, selling stockholders sold an aggregate of 48,819,708 shares of our Class A common stock and received net proceeds of approximately $290.6 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions. On July 14, 2004, selling stockholders sold an additional 687,900 shares of our Class A common stock to cover over-allotments of shares by the underwriters and received net proceeds of approximately $4.1 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions. Lastly, on December 13, 2004 and November 15, 2005, we completed secondary public offerings that provided further liquidity for some of our stockholders. We did not receive any of the proceeds from the sales of shares by the selling stockholders on June 15, 2004, July 14, 2004, December 13, 2004 and November 15, 2005.

We offer a full range of services to occupiers, owners, lenders and investors in office, retail, industrial, multi-family and other commercial real estate assets globally under the “CB Richard Ellis” brand name. Our business is focused on several service competencies, including tenant representation, property/agency leasing, property sales, commercial mortgage origination and servicing, integrated capital markets (equity and debt) solutions, commercial property and corporate facility management, valuation, proprietary research and real estate investment management. We generate revenues both on a per project or transaction basis and from annual management fees.

statement presentation, but do not include all disclosures required under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated, and certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods’ consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period presentation. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2006. The consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our current Annual Report on Form 10-K, which contains the latest available audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, which are as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005.

On April 28, 2006, our board of directors approved a three-for-one stock split of our outstanding Class A common stock effected as a 100% stock dividend, which was distributed on June 1, 2006. The applicable share and per share data for all periods included herein has been restated to give effect to this stock split.

Stock Incentive Plans

2001 Stock Incentive Plan.   Our 2001 stock incentive plan was adopted by our board of directors and approved by our stockholders on June 7, 2001. However, our 2001 stock incentive plan was terminated in June 2004 in connection with the adoption of our 2004 stock incentive plan, which is described below. The 2001 stock incentive plan permitted the grant of nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards to our employees, directors or independent contractors. Since our 2001 stock incentive plan has been terminated, no shares remain available for issuance under it. However, as of September 30, 2006, outstanding stock options granted under the 2001 stock incentive plan to acquire 8,264,279 shares of our Class A common stock remain outstanding according to their terms, and we will continue to issue shares to the extent required under the terms of such outstanding awards. Options granted under this plan have an exercise price of $1.92 and vest and are exercisable in 20% annual increments over five years from the date of grant. Options granted under the 2001 stock incentive plan are subject to a maximum term of ten years from the date of grant. The number of shares issued pursuant to the stock incentive plan, or pursuant to outstanding awards, is subject to adjustment on account of stock splits, stock dividends and other dilutive changes in our Class A common stock. In the event of a change of control of our company, all outstanding options will become fully vested and exercisable.

Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Incentive Plan.   Our 2004 stock incentive plan was adopted by our board of directors and approved by our stockholders on April 21, 2004, was amended and restated on April 14, 2005 and was amended again on September 6, 2006. The 2004 stock incentive plan authorizes the

grant of stock-based awards to our employees, directors or independent contractors. A total of 20,785,218 shares of our Class A common stock initially were reserved for issuance under the 2004 stock incentive plan. This share reserve is reduced by one share upon grant of an option or stock appreciation right, and is reduced by 2.25 shares upon issuance of stock pursuant to other stock-based awards. Awards that expire, terminate, lapse, that are reacquired by us or are redeemed for cash rather than shares will again be available for grant under this plan. Pursuant to the terms of our 2004 stock incentive plan, no employee is eligible to be granted options or stock appreciation rights covering more than 6,235,566 shares during any calendar year. This limitation is subject to a policy adopted by our board of directors which states that no person is eligible to be granted options, stock appreciation rights or restricted stock purchase rights covering more than 2,078,523 shares during any calendar year or to be granted any other form of stock award covering more than 1,039,260 shares during any calendar year. As of September 30, 2006, 7,173,643 shares were subject to options issued under our 2004 stock incentive plan and 9,483,556 shares remained available for future grants under the 2004 stock incentive plan. Options granted under this plan during 2004 have exercise prices in the range of $6.33 to $7.46 and vest and are exercisable generally in equal annual increments over three or four years from the date of grant. Options granted under this plan during 2005 have exercise prices in the range of $11.10 to $15.43 and vest and are also exercisable generally in equal annual increments over three or four years from the date of grant. Options granted under this plan during 2006 have exercise prices in the range of $23.46 to $25.67 and vest and are also exercisable generally in equal annual increments over three or four years from the date of grant. All options previously granted under the 2004 stock incentive plan have had a term of five or seven years from the date of grant. We also granted non-vested stock awards of 30,954 shares, 472,368 shares and 598,725 shares during 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. These non-vested stock awards generally vest in equal annual increments over four years from the date of the grant. Additionally, during 2006, we also granted 441,753 of non-vested stock units, which vest ten years from the date of grant. The number of shares issued or reserved pursuant to the 2004 stock incentive plan, or pursuant to outstanding awards, is subject to adjustment on account of mergers, consolidations, reorganizations, stock splits, stock dividends and other dilutive changes in our common stock. In addition, our board of directors may adjust outstanding awards to preserve the awards’ benefits or potential benefits.

A summary of the status of our option plans is presented in the tables below:

Non-Vested Stock Awards.   Under our 2004 stock incentive plan, we have issued non-vested stock awards in our Class A common stock to certain of our employees and members of our Board of Directors. A summary of the status of our non-vested stock awards is presented in the table below:

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

Prior to 2003, we accounted for our employee stock-based compensation plans under the recognition and measurement provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) interpretations. Accordingly, compensation cost for employee stock options was measured as the excess, if any, of the estimated market price of our Class A common stock at the date of grant over the amount an employee was required to pay to acquire the stock.

In the fourth quarter of 2003, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” prospectively to all employee awards granted, modified or settled after January 1, 2003, as permitted by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure—An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.”  Awards under our stock-based compensation plans generally vest over three to five-year periods. Therefore, the cost related to stock-based employee compensation included in the determination of net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 is less than that which would have been recognized if the fair value based method had been applied to all awards since the original effective date of SFAS No. 123.

3. Stock-Based Compensation (Continued)

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123—Revised, “Share Based Payment,” or SFAS No. 123R. SFAS No. 123R requires the measurement of compensation cost at the grant date, based upon the estimated fair value of the award, and requires amortization of the related expense over the employee’s requisite service period. Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS No. 123R applying the modified-prospective method for remaining unvested options that were granted subsequent to our IPO and the prospective method for remaining unvested options that were granted prior to our IPO.

The modified-prospective method provides for certain changes to the method for valuing share-based payment compensation, however prior periods are not required to be revised for comparative purposes. The valuation provisions of SFAS No. 123R apply to new awards as well as options that were granted subsequent to our IPO that were outstanding on the effective date and are subsequently modified or cancelled. As we have been accounting for our options under the fair value based method under SFAS No. 123 since the fourth quarter of 2003, the adoption of the modified-prospective method of SFAS No. 123R has not had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

We are applying the prospective method for the remaining unvested options that were granted prior to our IPO. Under prospective method application, the fair value and other provisions of the statement are to be applied only to awards modified, repurchased or cancelled after the required effective date. In addition, we are required to account for any portion of awards outstanding as of January 1, 2006 using the accounting principles originally applied to those awards. Accordingly, for stock awards issued in 2001 and 2002 which remained outstanding as of January 1, 2006, we are continuing to account for them under the measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and related FASB interpretations. In addition, our 2003 and pre-IPO 2004 grants will continue to be accounted for under the minimum value provisions of SFAS No. 123.

In accordance with SFAS No. 123R, we have continued to estimate the fair value of our options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which takes into account assumptions such as the dividend yield, the risk-free interest rate, the expected stock price volatility and the expected life of the options. SFAS No. 123R also requires companies to estimate forfeitures. As we previously estimated forfeitures under SFAS No. 123, in this regard our adoption of SFAS No. 123R has had no impact on our results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

The weighted average fair value of options granted by us was $10.38 and $5.74 for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and $10.38 and $5.63 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, utilizing the following weighted average assumptions:

11

CB RICHARD ELLIS GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)

3. Stock-Based Compensation (Continued)

The dividend yield assumption is excluded from the calculation, as it is our present intention to retain all earnings. The expected volatility is based on a combination of our historical stock price and implied volatility. The selection of implied volatility data to estimate expected volatility is based upon the availability of actively traded options on our stock. The risk-free interest rate is based upon the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods corresponding with the expected life of the options. The expected life of our stock options represents the average between the vesting and contractual term, pursuant to Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107.

Option valuation models require the input of subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility and expected life. Because our employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, we do not believe that the Black-Scholes model necessarily provides a reliable single measure of the fair value of our employee stock options.

The total estimated grant date fair value of stock options that vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $5.4 million, which approximates the share-based compensation expense before taxes included in other operating expenses. At September 30, 2006, total unrecognized estimated compensation cost related to non-vested stock options granted prior to that date was approximately $26.8 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 3.2 years. The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $55.8 million. We recorded cash received from stock option exercises of $7.6 million and related tax benefits of $17.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2006. Upon option exercise, we issue new shares of stock.

Excess tax benefits exist when the tax deduction resulting from the exercise of options exceeds the compensation cost recorded. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R, we presented all such excess tax benefits as operating cash flows on our consolidated statements of cash flows. SFAS No. 123R requires the cash flows resulting from such excess tax benefits to be classified as financing cash flows. Under SFAS No. 123R, we have classified excess tax benefits of $17.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as financing cash inflows.

In November 2005, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 123(R)-3, “Transition Election Related to Accounting for Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards.”  We have elected to adopt the alternative transition method provided in this FASB Staff Position for calculating the tax effects of share-based compensation pursuant to SFAS No. 123R. The alternative transition method includes a simplified method to establish the beginning balance of the additional paid-in capital pool related to the tax effects of employee share-based compensation, which is available to absorb tax deficiencies recognized subsequent to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R.

4. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

SFAS No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not required to be recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Fair value is defined as the amount at which an instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The

4. Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

fair value estimates of financial instruments are not necessarily indicative of the amounts we might pay or receive in actual market transactions. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash:   These balances include cash and cash equivalents as well as restricted cash with maturities of less than three months. The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

Receivables, less allowance for doubtful accounts:   Due to their short-term nature, fair value approximates carrying value.

Warehouse Receivables:   Due to their short-term nature, fair value approximates carrying value. Fair value is determined based on the terms and conditions of funded mortgage loans and generally reflects the values of the WaMu and JP Morgan warehouse lines of credit outstanding for our wholly-owned subsidiary, CBRE Melody & Company (CBRE Melody), which was formerly known as L.J. Melody & Company (See Note 8).

Short-Term Borrowings:   The majority of this balance represents our revolving credit facility and the WaMu and JP Morgan warehouse lines of credit outstanding for CBRE Melody. Due to the variable interest rates of these instruments, fair value approximates carrying value  (See Note 8).

11¼% Senior Subordinated Notes:   Based on dealers’ quotes, the estimated fair value of our 11¼% senior subordinated notes was $177.8 million at December 31, 2005. The actual carrying value totaled $163.0 million at December 31, 2005 (See Note 8).

9¾% Senior Notes:   Based on dealers’ quotes, the estimated fair value of our 9¾% senior notes was $138.8 million and $141.7 million at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. Their actual carrying value totaled $130.0 million at both September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 (See Note 8).

Senior Secured Term Loan & Other Short-Term and Long-Term Debt:   Estimated fair values approximate respective carrying values because the substantial majority of these instruments are based on variable interest rates (See Note 8).

5. Restricted Cash

Included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, is restricted cash of $8.7 million and $5.2 million, respectively, which primarily consists of cash pledged to secure the guarantee of certain short-term notes issued in connection with previous acquisitions by Insignia in the United Kingdom (U.K.). Also included in the balance as of September 30, 2006, are escrow accounts related to strategic in-fill acquisitions completed during 2006.

6. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The following table summarizes the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for us and each of our segments (See Note 16 for a description of our segments) for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 (dollars in thousands):

Other intangible assets totaled $106.4 million and $109.5 million, net of accumulated amortization of $41.3 million and $30.6 million, as of September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively, and are comprised of the following (dollars in thousands):

In accordance with SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations,” trademarks of $63.7 million were separately identified as a result of the 2001 Merger. As a result of the Insignia Acquisition, a $19.8 million trade name was separately identified, which represents the Richard Ellis trade name in the U.K. that was owned by Insignia. Both the trademarks and the trade name have indefinite useful lives and accordingly are not being amortized.

6. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (Continued)

Management contracts are primarily comprised of property management contracts in the United States (U.S.), Canada, the U.K., France and other European countries, as well as valuation services and fund management contracts in the U.K. These management contracts are being amortized over estimated useful lives of up to ten years.

Loan servicing rights represent the fair value of servicing assets in our mortgage brokerage line of business in the U.S., the majority of which were acquired as part of the 2001 Merger. The loan servicing rights are being amortized over estimated useful lives of up to ten years.

Other amortizable intangible assets mainly represent other intangible assets acquired as a result of the Insignia Acquisition, including an intangible asset recognized for non-contractual revenue acquired in the U.S. as well as franchise agreements and a trade name in France. Additionally, net revenue backlog acquired from in-fill acquisitions in 2005 and 2006 is also included. All of these other intangible assets are being amortized over estimated useful lives of up to twenty years.

Amortization expense related to intangible assets was $3.2 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and $10.1 million and $5.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The estimated annual amortization expense for each of the years ending December 31, 2006 through December 31, 2010 approximates $11.6 million, $4.8 million, $3.4 million, $3.2 million and $2.8 million, respectively.

7. Investments in and Advances to Unconsolidated Subsidiaries

Investments in and advances to unconsolidated subsidiaries are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Combined condensed financial information for these entities is as follows (dollars in thousands):

Our Global Investment Management segment involves investing our own capital in certain real estate investments with clients. We have provided investment management, property management, brokerage and other professional services to these equity investees on an arm’s length basis and earned revenues from these unconsolidated subsidiaries.

In June 2005, CBRE Realty Finance, Inc. (CBRE Realty Finance), a real estate investment trust, was formed and is managed by CBRE Melody. The principal business activity of CBRE Realty Finance is to originate, acquire, invest in, finance and manage a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate-related loans and securities. On June 9, 2005, we received 300,000 shares of restricted stock and an option to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock from CBRE Realty Finance that vest in three equal annual installments. Effective June 9, 2006, 100,000 shares of the restricted stock vested and are now owned as common stock. As of September 30, 2006, CBRE Realty Finance had total assets of $1.4 billion and total

equity of $279.1 million. CBRE Realty Finance is a variable interest entity as defined in FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (FIN No. 46R). In accordance with FIN No. 46R, CBRE Realty Finance is not consolidated in our consolidated financial statements because we are not its primary beneficiary. Our maximum exposure to loss is limited to our equity investment in CBRE Realty Finance, which was approximately $18.4 million as of September 30, 2006.

8. Debt

We had short-term borrowings of $258.1 million and $272.2 million with related average interest rates of 6.4% and 5.2% as of September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively.

Since 2001, we have maintained a credit agreement with Credit Suisse (CS) and other lenders to fund strategic acquisitions and to provide for our working capital needs. On June 26, 2006, we entered into a $600.0 million multi-currency senior secured revolving credit facility (the Credit Agreement) with a syndicate of banks led by CS, as administrative and collateral agent, which fully replaced our prior credit agreement. In connection with the replacement of our prior credit facility, we wrote off $8.2 million of unamortized deferred financing fees during the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

Our Credit Agreement includes the following:  (1) a $600.0 million revolving credit facility, including revolving credit loans, letters of credit and a swingline loan facility, all maturing on June 24, 2011 and (2) the ability to borrow an additional $200.0 million, subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions. The $600.0 million revolving credit facility allows for borrowings outside of the U.S., with sub-facilities of $5.0 million available to one of our Canadian subsidiaries, $35.0 million available to one of our Australian and New Zealand subsidiaries and $50.0 million available to one of our U.K. subsidiaries.

Borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest at varying rates, based at our option, on either the applicable fixed rate plus 0.575% to 1.1125% or the daily rate plus 0% to 0.1125%, in both cases as determined by reference to our ratio of total debt less available cash to EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement). As of September 30, 2006, we had $139.8 million of revolving credit facility principal outstanding, which is included in short-term borrowings in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2006, letters of credit totaling $1.5 million were outstanding, which letters of credit primarily relate to our subsidiaries’ outstanding indebtedness as well as operating leases and reduce the amount we may borrow under the revolving credit facility.

Our previous credit agreement included the following:  (1) a term loan facility of $295.0 million, which required quarterly principal payments of $2.95 million beginning December 31, 2004 through December 31, 2009 with the balance payable on March 31, 2010; and (2) a $150.0 million revolving credit facility, including revolving credit loans, letters of credit and a swingline loan facility, all maturing on March 31, 2009. Our previous credit agreement also permitted us to make additional borrowings under a term loan facility of up to $25.0 million, subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions.

Borrowings under the term loan facility bore interest at varying rates based, at our option, on either LIBOR plus 2.00% or the alternate base rate plus 1.00%. The alternate base rate was the higher of
