Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Opendoor Technologies Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Opendoor Technologies Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes and Schedule I listed in the Index at Item 8 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 27, 2025, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Real Estate Inventory, Net – Refer to Notes 1 and 2 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
Real estate inventory, net includes a valuation adjustment to record real estate inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company applies the specific identification method whereby each home constitutes a unit of account. If the carrying amount or basis of inventory is not expected to be recovered, an inventory valuation adjustment is recorded to cost of revenue and the related assets are adjusted to their net realizable value. For homes under sales contract, the net realizable value is the contract price less expected selling costs and concessions. For homes that are not under sales contract, net realizable value is management’s internal projection price less expected selling costs. The determination of net realizable value for homes not under sales contract requires management to make significant estimates related to the internal projection price. Changes in these estimates could have a significant impact on the net realizable value and a significant change in net realizable value could cause a significant valuation adjustment.
We identified real estate inventory valuation adjustment for homes that are not under sales contract, which is the majority of the real estate inventory valuation adjustment, to be a critical audit matter due to the subjectivity of management’s judgment in forecasting the net realizable value of the real estate inventory, specifically with respect to the internal projection price. This required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our fair value specialists, when performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s internal projection price.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to the internal projection price input used for real estate inventory valuation adjustments for homes that are not under sales contract included the following, among others:
We tested the effectiveness of internal controls over the internal projection price valuation process, calculation of the valuation adjustment, and management’s consideration of macroeconomic factors with respect to the valuation adjustment.
We evaluated whether the estimates of the real estate inventory valuation adjustments for homes that are not under sales contract were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit, including internal communications to management and the Board of Directors.
We made inquiries of management throughout the period about the expected effects of macroeconomic factors on the internal projection price.
We developed an expectation of the real estate inventory valuation adjustment for homes that are not under sales contract and compared it to the recorded balance.
We evaluated management’s ability to accurately forecast the internal projection price by comparing actual sales prices to management’s historical internal projection prices.
With the assistance of our fair value specialists we:
Evaluated the appropriateness of the methodology utilized by management to estimate the internal projection price.
Developed a range of independent projected sales price estimates for a sample of individual homes using observable market data of actual sale transactions for comparable homes and compared those to management’s internal projection price.
