Silvercrest Asset Management Group Inc. Reports Q1 2019 Results

New York, NY – May 2, 2019 - Silvercrest Asset Management Group Inc. (NASDAQ: SAMG) (the "Company" or "Silvercrest") today reported the results of its operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2019.

Business Update

After finishing 2018 with record calendar-year revenue, and following a sustained multi-year period of organic growth, Silvercrest experienced a difficult first quarter of 2019 as a result of revenue recorded after the equity market’s fourth quarter sell-off and negative asset flows. The markets have since rebounded and the firm ended the first quarter of 2019 with $15.3 billion in discretionary assets under management, up $1.1 billion during the quarter, and $20.8 billion in total assets under management, up $1.8 billion from the end of the fourth quarter.

Silvercrest has recently invested in a number of initiatives which we expect to drive future growth. During the first quarter of 2019, Silvercrest announced the acquisition of an international equity strategy being incubated at the firm, and we have completed integration of that business. More recently, Silvercrest announced one of its most significant acquisitions to date. We have agreed to acquire substantially all of the assets of Cortina Asset Management, LLC, a highly regarded growth investment management firm with nearly $2.0 billion in institutional assets. We expect to close on that transaction in the third quarter of 2019. We have long sought the right partner to establish an innovative and high-caliber growth equity capability at the firm. It is a good example of how we seek to combine strong intellectual capital within a supportive partnership culture to benefit institutional and individual investors alike. We are excited to support Cortina’s special talent and to enhance their strategies in the marketplace, setting the stage for our next phase of growth. Meanwhile, we are seeing substantial institutional interest in Silvercrest’s multiple existing value equity strategies, some of which have only recently been introduced to the marketplace.

The years 2019 and 2020 will be important for realizing the fruits of Silvercrest’s OCIO initiative, an investment in which we completed at the end of the third quarter of 2018. Silvercrest also laid the groundwork for future growth in the high net worth business. We have supported new junior and senior portfolio managers, and we plan to continue building those ranks in 2019. We also have now introduced our value-added family business advisory capability which helps businesses with succession-planning, restructuring, re-capitalizations and sales and which, in time, should help attract new wealth management opportunities.

While the current M&A environment for wealth management firms remains expensive, Silvercrest continues to actively evaluate selective and prudent acquisitions with culturally compatible firms to complement our organic growth, including the potential to expand in new geographies. Meanwhile, we will seek value on behalf of shareholders where opportunity resides, and we will continue to foster initiatives to organically grow the firm.

On April 30, 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share of Class A common stock.  The dividend will be paid on or about June 21, 2019 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on June 14, 2019.

Adjusted measures are non-GAAP measures and are explained and reconciled to the comparable GAAP measures in Exhibits 2 and 3.

2

Adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share measures for the three months ended March 31, 2019 are based on the number of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2019.  Adjusted diluted earnings per share are further based on the addition of unvested restricted stock units, and non-qualified stock options to the extent dilutive at the end of the reporting period.

3

We have computed average AUM by averaging AUM at the beginning of the applicable period and AUM at the end of the applicable period.

AUM at $20.8 billion

Silvercrest’s discretionary assets under management decreased by $0.6 billion, or 3.5%, to $15.3 billion at March 31, 2019 from $15.9 billion at March 31, 2018.  The decrease was attributable to net client outflows of $0.8 billion partially offset by market appreciation of $0.2 billion.  Silvercrest’s total AUM decreased by $0.7 billion, or 3.3%, to $20.8 billion at March 31, 2019 from $21.5 billion at March 31, 2018.  The decrease was attributable to net client outflows of $1.5 billion partially offset by market appreciation of $0.8 billion.

First Quarter 2019 vs. First Quarter 2018

Revenue decreased by $1.8 million, or 7.2%, to $22.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, from $24.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. This decrease was driven by net client outflows in discretionary assets under management partially offset by market appreciation.  

Total expenses decreased by $0.4 million, or 2.4%, to $18.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $19.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Compensation and benefits expense decreased by $0.9 million, or 6.6%, to $13.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $14.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in the accrual for bonuses of $1.4 million, partially offset by an increase in salaries and benefits expense of $0.5 million primarily as a result of merit-based increases and newly hired staff. General and administrative expenses increased by $0.5 million, or 10.2%, to $5.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $4.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in portfolio and systems expenses of $0.3 million due to an increase in soft dollar-related research costs, an increase in occupancy and related expenses of $0.1 million and an increase in moving and storage costs of $0.1 million.

Consolidated net income was $3.0 million or 13.5% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to $4.1 million or 16.6% of revenue for the same period in the prior year.  Net income attributable to Silvercrest was $1.7 million, or $0.20 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2019.   Our Adjusted Net Income1 was $3.3 million, or $0.24 per adjusted basic and diluted share2 for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Adjusted EBITDA1 was $5.8 million or 25.5% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to $6.9 million or 28.5% of revenue for the same period in the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents were $45.5 million at March 31, 2019, compared to $69.3 million at December 31, 2018.  As of March 31, 2019, there was nothing outstanding on our revolving credit facility with City National Bank.  

Total Silvercrest Asset Management Group Inc.’s equity was $56.6 million at March 31, 2019.  We had 8,535,170 shares of Class A common stock outstanding and 4,918,545 shares of Class B common stock outstanding at March 31, 2019.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To provide investors with additional insight, promote transparency and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, we supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a basis consistent with GAAP with Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share which are non-GAAP financial measures of earnings.  These adjustments, and the non-GAAP financial measures that are derived from them, provide supplemental information to analyze our operations between periods and over time. Investors should consider our non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

 

EBITDA represents net income before provision for income taxes, interest income, interest expense, depreciation and amortization.

 

We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA without giving effect to the Delaware franchise tax, professional fees associated with acquisitions or financing transactions, gains on extinguishment of debt or other obligations related to acquisitions, impairment charges and losses on disposals or abandonment of assets and leaseholds, client reimbursements and fund redemption costs, severance and other similar expenses, but including partner incentive allocations, prior to our initial public offering, as an expense.  We feel that it is important to management and investors to supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis with Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure of earnings, as this measure provides a perspective of recurring earnings of the Company, taking into account earnings attributable to both Class A and Class B shareholders.  

 

Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by total revenue.  We feel that it is important to management and investors to supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis with Adjusted EBITDA Margin, a non-GAAP financial measure of earnings, as this measure provides a perspective of recurring profitability of the Company, taking into account profitability attributable to both Class A and Class B shareholders.

 

Adjusted Net Income represents recurring net income without giving effect to professional fees associated with acquisitions or financing transactions, losses on forgiveness of notes receivable from our principals, gains on extinguishment of debt or other obligations related to acquisitions, impairment charges and losses on disposals or abandonment of assets and leaseholds, client reimbursements and fund redemption costs, severance and other similar expenses, but including partner incentive allocations, prior to our initial public offering, as an expense. Furthermore, Adjusted Net Income includes income tax expense assuming a blended corporate rate of 26%.  We feel that it is important to management and investors to supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis with Adjusted Net Income, a non-GAAP financial measure of earnings, as this measure provides a perspective of recurring income of the Company, taking into account income attributable to both Class A and Class B shareholders.

 

Adjusted Earnings Per Share represents Adjusted Net Income divided by the actual Class A and Class B shares outstanding as of the end of the reporting period for basic Adjusted Earnings Per Share, and to the extent dilutive, we add unvested restricted stock units and non-qualified stock options to the total shares outstanding to compute diluted Adjusted Earnings Per Share. As a result of our structure, which includes a non-controlling interest, we feel that it is important to management and investors to supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis with Adjusted Earnings Per Share, a non-GAAP financial measure of earnings, as this measure provides a perspective of recurring earnings per share of the Company as a whole as opposed to being limited to our Class A common stock.

Hough III, Chief Executive Officer and President and Scott A. Gerard, Chief Financial Officer.
