Over the past several months, RDVT has highlighted steady business development and investor-relations activity. FOREWARN has secured adoption by multiple REALTOR® organizations, including Spokane REALTORS® (>2,400 members) and West Penn Multi-List (>8,000 members), with shares reacting positively. The company has also promoted upcoming events such as the Needham Growth Conference and its scheduled Q4 and full-year 2025 earnings release on March 4, 2026. Today’s MAAR partnership fits this pattern of expanding FOREWARN’s real estate safety footprint.
Regulatory & Risk Context
RDVT has an effective Form S-3 shelf from Nov 19, 2025 allowing issuance of up to $150,000,000 in mixed securities, with at least one usage via a 424B5 filing on Nov 26, 2025. Proceeds are designated for general corporate purposes, including potential repurchases and acquisitions.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement adds another REALTOR® organization to FOREWARN’s footprint, with Memphis Area Association of REALTORS® providing services to 4,600+ members at no additional agent cost. It follows earlier REALTOR® group wins, reinforcing a steady expansion theme rather than a step-change event. Against a backdrop of trading below the 200-day MA and a still-active $150,000,000 shelf, investors may watch how recurring usage and future earnings updates reflect this growing installed base.
