State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. (the Company) is unable to file, without unreasonable effort or expense, its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2017 (the Form 10-Q) by November 9, 2017, the original due date for such filing.
As previously disclosed in the Companys Current Report on Form 8-K filed on November 2, 2017, the Company is conducting an investigation by a special committee of independent directors into actions of certain members of the Companys senior management. The Company is not able to complete its Form 10-Q while certain aspects of the investigation remain incomplete.
Although the Company continues to work expeditiously to conclude the investigation and file its Form 10-Q as soon as practicable, the Company does not anticipate filing the Form 10-Q within the five-day period provided by Rule 12b-25.

This Form 12b-25 includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as believe, intend, expect, estimate, plan, outlook, project and other similar words and expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include statements regarding the ongoing investigation including descriptions of its scope, timing and impact as well as progress of the investigation, expectations about the Companys reporting of its results and filing its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and potential violations of the Companys codes of ethics and business conduct and policies. Forward-looking statements are based on information available at the time those statements are made and/or managements good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events, and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, without limitation, (1) the uncertainty of the scope of the internal investigation of the Special Committee, and its ultimate findings, as well as the timing of its completion and costs and expenses arising out of the investigation process and its results, (2) the impact of the internal investigation on the Company, its management and operations, including financial impact as well as any litigation or regulatory action that may arise from the investigation, any of which may result in a material adverse effect on the Company, (3) the existence and identification of control deficiencies, including disclosure controls as well as any material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, and any impact of such control deficiencies as well as the associated costs in remediating those control deficiencies, (4) findings of misconduct or other inappropriate activities by members of our senior management, including violations of Company policies and procedures, and (5) reputational damage that the Company may suffer as a result of the matters being investigated by the Special Committee, as well as those risks and uncertainties described in the sections entitled Risk Factors and Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and similar disclosures in subsequent periodic and current reports filed with the SEC, which are available on the investor relations page of the Companys website at www.remax.com and on the SEC website at www.sec.gov. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made.
