AUM Increased to $16.2 billion
Silvercrest’s AUM increased by $2.6 billion, or 19.1%, to $16.2 billion at March 31, 2014 from $13.6 billion at March 31, 2013. The increase was attributable to $1.6 billion in market appreciation in addition to net client inflows of $1.0 billion.
Silvercrest’s AUM increased by $0.5 billion, or 3.2%, to $16.2 billion at March 31, 2014 from $15.7 billion at December 31, 2013. The increase was attributable to net client inflows of $0.6 billion.
First Quarter 2014 vs. First Quarter 2013
Revenue increased by $3.0 million, or 22.2%, to $16.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014, from $13.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. This increase was driven primarily by growth in the Company’s management and advisory fees as a result of increased AUM.
Total expenses increased by $5.0 million, or 63.4%, to $12.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 from $7.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in compensation and benefits expense of $4.5 million. General and administrative expenses increased by $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 from the same period in the prior year. The increase in compensation and benefits expense was primarily attributable to an increase in the accrual for bonuses of $4.1 million as a result of the recognition of partner incentive payments as compensation expense that began in the third quarter of 2013 subsequent to the completion of our IPO. Prior to our IPO, partner incentive payments were treated as distributions of net income when paid. General and administrative expenses increased primarily as a result of an increase in occupancy and related expenses due to reduced subtenant rental income and an increase to the provision for doubtful accounts due to higher revenue levels.
Consolidated net income was $2.2 million. Net income attributable to Silvercrest was $0.9 million, or $0.13 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2014.The Company’s Adjusted Net Income1 was $2.3 million, or $0.19 per adjusted basic and diluted share4 for the three months ended March 31, 2014.
Adjusted EBITDA1 was $5.0 million or 29.8% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $4.1 million or 30.2% of revenue for the same period in the prior year.
|
1 | Adjusted measures are non-GAAP measures and are explained and reconciled to the comparable GAAP measures in Exhibits 2 and 3. |
2 | The Company has computed average AUM by averaging AUM at the beginning of the applicable period and AUM at the end of the applicable period. |
3 | The Company became the general partner of Silvercrest L.P. on June 26, 2013, but net income of Silvercrest L.P. was allocated to the Company effective July 2013 as allocable net income prior to July 2013 was de minimis. Accordingly, the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 are those of the Company’s accounting predecessor, Silvercrest L.P., and as a result, did not take into consideration changes related to the Company’s initial public offering. |
4 | Adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share measures for the year ended March 31, 2014 are based on the number of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2014. |

(A) | Partner/member incentive allocations have historically been treated as distributions of net income and recorded when paid. Upon the completion of Silvercrest’s reorganization and initial public offering, the Company accounts for partner incentive payments as an expense in its statement of operations. Accordingly, this had the effect of increasing compensation expense relative to the amounts that had been recorded historically in the Company’s financial statements. |

1 | Returns are based upon a time weighted rate of return of various fully discretionary equity portfolios with similar investment objectives, strategies and policies and other relevant criteria managed by SAMG LLC. Performance results are gross of fees and net of commission charges. An investor’s actual return will be reduced by the advisory fees and any other expenses it may incur in the management of the investment advisory account. SAMG LLC’s standard advisory fees are described in Part 2 of its Form ADV. Actual fees and expenses will vary depending on a variety of factors, including the size of a particular account. An investor’s actual return will be reduced by the advisory fees and any other expenses it may incur in the management of the investment advisory account. Investment management fees have a compounding effect on cumulative results. For example, assume SAMG LLC achieves a 10% annual return prior to the deduction of fees each year for a period of 10 years. If an annual investment management fee of 1% of assets under management for the 10 year period were charged, the resulting annual average return after fees would be reduced to 8.9%. Returns greater than one year are shown as annualized compounded returns and include gains and accrued income and reinvestment of distributions. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. This piece contains no recommendations to buy or sell securities or a solicitation of an offer to buy or sell securities or investment services or adopt any investment position. This piece is not intended to constitute investment advice and is based upon conditions in place during the period noted. Market and economic views are subject to change without notice and may be untimely when presented here. Readers are advised not to infer or assume that any securities, sectors or markets described were or will be profitable. SAMG LLC is an independent investment advisory and financial services firm created to meet the investment and administrative needs of individuals with substantial assets and select institutional investors. SAMG LLC claims compliance with the Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS®). |

These model portfolios are not actual strategies in which clients can invest or allocate assets. They are hypothetical combinations of: (i) internally-managed strategies in which clients are invested and (ii) externally-managed funds or products in which clients are invested. We track three such portfolios depending on the overall strategy by which the securities purchased may be characterized. They are Income, Growth, and Balanced (Income and Growth). The returns shown assume annual rebalancing and reinvestment of dividends over the entirety of each of the periods shown. Some of the underlying returns used to calculate each portfolio’s returns were net of fees and some were gross of fees. The rates of return for each of the three portfolios are presented gross of investment management fees and custody fees, but include the deduction of estimated brokerage commissions and transaction costs. An investor’s actual return on a portfolio of the type shown would be reduced by the advisory fees and any other expenses it may incur in the management of the investment advisory account. For example, assume the Firm achieves a 10% annual return prior to the deduction of fees each year for a period of 10 years. If an annual investment management fee of 1% of assets under management for the 10 year period were charged, the resulting annual average return after fees would be reduced to 8.9%. Silvercrest’s standard annual asset-based fee schedule is described in Part 2 of its Form ADV, and outsourced Manager’s standard annual asset-based fee schedules are described in Part 2 of each of their Form ADVs. Actual fees and expenses will vary depending on a variety of factors, including the size of a particular account. Generally, investment management fees are charged based upon the size of the portfolio, computed quarterly. An investor’s actual result would be different from those portrayed in the models. A reader should not infer or assume that any portfolio is appropriate to meet the objectives, situation or needs of a particular investor, as the implementation of any financial strategy, and the purchase or sale of any security, should only be made after consultation with an attorney, tax advisor and investment advisor. Past performance is no indication of future results.
The benchmark is a composite of the S&P 500 Index, the Barclays Capital Aggregate Index, and the HFRI Fund of Funds Composite Index. Each index’s blend is rebalanced annually. Index returns do not reflect a deduction for fees or expenses. Investors cannot invest directly in any of these indices.
The market indices used to compare to the performance of Silvercrest’s strategies are as follows:
The Barclays Capital Aggregate Index is an index of investment grade government and corporate bonds with a maturity of more than one year.
The S&P 500 Index is a capitalization-weighted, unmanaged index that measures 500 widely held US common stocks of leading companies in leading industries, representative of the broad US equity market.
The HFRI Fund of Funds Composite Index is an index that is equal weighted, net of fees, and comprised of over 1,500 funds which report to Hedge Fund Research.
