Previous wording
As of March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, we had approximately 10,462 and 13,665 agents, respectively, representing decline of approximately 23.4%. The decrease in agent count during the period was primarily driven by a strategic review and rationalization of the Company’s agent base, including the removal of inactive and non-producing agents. Additionally, beginning in 2026, the Company transitioned from reporting agent licenses to reporting agent counts, which also contributes to the lower reported number and does not reflect a decline in underlying agent demand or engagement. As a result, the Company recast its agent count as of March 31, 2025 for comparative purposes.
