    المصدر: Nasdaq GlobeNewswire / 07 مارس 2024 16:01:01   America/New_York

    NEW YORK, March 07, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Silvercrest Asset Management Group Inc. (NASDAQ: SAMG) (the “Company” or “Silvercrest”) today reported the results of its operations for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2023.

    Business Update

    After the volatile and difficult market environment of 2022, we hoped had 2023 would lead to improved markets, helping to recover both Silvercrest’s discretionary assets under management (“AUM”) as well as top line revenue. The year 2023 was unusual. Equity market gains were highly concentrated in a handful of large cap technology companies. As a result of such narrow leadership and economic uncertainty, during the third quarter 2023 earnings call, I stated we could face challenging market conditions at Silvercrest for another year. During the fourth quarter of 2023, company participation in equity market gains broadened significantly. Progress has continued into 2024, setting the stage for a better environment for our business.

    During the fourth quarter of 2023, Silvercrest’s discretionary AUM rose by $1.4 billion, or 6.8%, to $21.9 billion. Silvercrest’s total AUM increased by $2.1 billion, or by 6.7%, to $33.3 billion during the fourth quarter. For 2023, Silvercrest’s discretionary AUM increased by $1.0 billion, or 4.8%. Our total AUM increased during 2023 by 15.2%, or $4.4 billion, to $33.3 billion from $28.9 billion at the end of 2022. The total 2023 increase was attributable to market appreciation of $3.8 billion and net client inflows of $0.6 billion.

    Silvercrest's revenue for the year, however, significantly lagged increases in assets under management due to broad market gains concentrated in the fourth quarter of 2023. Silvercrest primarily bills quarterly in advance. Revenue decreased by $5.8 million, or 4.7%, to $117.4 million for 2023 from $123.2 million for 2022. This decrease was driven by market depreciation in prior years, partially offset by market appreciation and net client inflows during 2023. Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2023 was flat year over year.

    Our financial results in the fourth quarter also were negatively affected by adjustments to total compensation for 2023, with total recurring cash compensation as a percentage of revenue rising to 59% from Silvercrest’s typical interim accrual rate of 55%. Silvercrest completed the year with Adjusted EBITDA1 of $26.9 million or 22.9% of revenue, down from $32.0 million or 26.0% of revenue in 2022. Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share1,2 for 2023 was $1.12, down from $1.35 in 2022.  For the fourth quarter, Adjusted EBITDA1 was $2.6 million or 9.0% of revenue, down from $4.4 million or 15.6% of revenue in the fourth quarter of 2022.  Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share1,2 for the fourth quarter was $0.07, down from $0.15 in the fourth quarter of 2022. With AUM increases during the fourth quarter and so far in 2024, we expect a better environment in 2024.

    Silvercrest's pipeline of new business opportunities have significantly improved since the fourth quarter of 2023. While the institutional search environment remains slow, Silvercrest’s actionable institutional business pipeline has increased to $735 million. Silvercrest’s outsourced chief investment officer (OCIO) AUM has risen to $1.7 billion, which includes a new small college endowment. The OCIO pipeline has increased to $585 million, and our consultant relationships have strengthened.

    Silvercrest has never been busier with new initiatives. We are focused on those new opportunities, as well as investments to drive future growth in the business, including value-added hires.

    AUM at $33.3 Billion

    Silvercrest’s discretionary assets under management increased by $1.0 billion, or 4.8%, to $21.9 billion at December 31, 2023, from $20.9 billion at December 31, 2022. The increase was attributable to market appreciation of $2.1 billion partially offset by net client outflows of $1.1 billion. Silvercrest’s total AUM increased by $4.4 billion, or 15.2%, to $33.3 billion at December 31, 2023, from $28.9 billion at December 31, 2022. The increase was attributable to market appreciation of $3.8 billion and net client inflows of $0.6 billion.

    Silvercrest’s discretionary assets under management increased by $1.4 billion, or 6.8%, to $21.9 billion at December 31, 2023, from $20.5 billion at September 30, 2023. The increase was attributable to market appreciation of $1.8 billion partially offset by net client outflows of $0.4 billion. Silvercrest’s total AUM increased by $2.1 billion, or 6.7%, to $33.3 billion at December 31, 2023, from $31.2 billion at September 30, 2023. The increase was attributable to market appreciation of $2.5 billion partially offset by net client outflows of $0.4 billion.

    Fourth Quarter 2023 vs. Fourth Quarter 2022

    Revenue increased by $0.1 million, or 0.2%, to $28.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, from $28.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022. This increase was driven by market appreciation in discretionary assets under management.

    Total expenses increased by $5.1 million, or 21.1%, to $29.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, from $24.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022. Compensation and benefits expense increased by $4.0 million, or 21.2%, to $22.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, from $18.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to increases in bonuses of $3.5 million, salaries and benefits of $0.3 million primarily as a result of merit-based increases and newly hired staff and an increase in equity-based compensation of $0.2 million due to the granting of additional restricted stock units (“RSUs”). General and administrative expenses increased by $1.1 million, or 20.8%, to $6.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, from $5.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022. This was primarily attributable to an adjustment to the fair value of contingent consideration related to the Cortina Acquisition of ($0.8) million recorded during the three months ended December 31, 2022, an increase in the adjustment to the fair value of contingent consideration related to the Neosho Acquisition of $0.3 million, increases in occupancy and related costs of $0.1 million and charitable donations of 0.1 million, partially offset by a decrease in professional fees of $0.2 million.

    Consolidated net loss was $0.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to consolidated net income of $3.3 million for the same period in the prior year.

    Adjusted EBITDA1 was $2.6 million, or 9.0% of revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $4.4 million or 15.6% of revenue for the same period in the prior year.

    Revenue decreased by $5.8 million, or 4.7%, to $117.4 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, from $123.2 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. This decrease was driven by market depreciation in prior years, partially offset by market appreciation and net client inflows during 2023.

    Total expenses increased by $13.9 million, or 16.5%, to $98.6 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, from $84.7 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. Compensation and benefits expense increased by $1.0 million, or 1.4%, to $72.6 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, from $71.6 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to increases in equity-based compensation expense of $0.5 million due to an increase in the number of unvested restricted stock units and unvested non-qualified stock options outstanding and an increase in salaries and benefits expense of $1.3 million primarily as a result of merit-based increases and newly hired staff, partially offset by a decrease in the accrual for bonuses of $0.8 million.

    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 RSUs 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.
