• Silvercrest Asset Management Group Inc. Reports Q1 2023 Results

    Source: Nasdaq GlobeNewswire / 04 May 2023 16:01:01   America/New_York

    NEW YORK, May 04, 2023 (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 March 31, 2023.

    Business Update

    Despite volatility, markets were supportive during the first quarter of 2023, with Silvercrest concluding the quarter with Total Assets under Management (“AUM”) of $29.9 billion and Discretionary AUM of $21.3 billion. Discretionary AUM, which primarily drives revenue, increased 1.9% over the fourth quarter of 2022. Nonetheless, Discretionary AUM has declined 10.5% year-over-year, since the first quarter of 2022. Consequently, while business results have increased over fourth quarter results, they remain down on a year-over-year basis as markets recover. Revenue fell 12.2% for the first quarter compared with 2022. This decline in revenue significantly affected Adjusted EBITDA1 and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share1, 2. Adjusted EBITDA1 declined year-over-year to $8.2 million for the first quarter since the first quarter of 2022. Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share1, 2 also declined year-over year to $0.35 for the first quarter since the first quarter of 2022. Silvercrest’s Adjusted EBITDA Margin1 of 27.8% remains historically healthy for the company.

    Economic uncertainty and market volatility often create long-term opportunities that benefit the high-quality of Silvercrest’s capabilities. Our pipeline of new business opportunities also increased over the fourth quarter of 2022 and has increased substantially since the first quarter of 2022. The firm’s outsourced Chief Investment Officer (“OCIO”) initiative also increased during the first quarter and now manages AUM of $1.52 billion.

    Silvercrest repurchased approximately 96,000 shares of Class A common stock for approximately $1.6 million during the first quarter.

    On May 2, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.18 per share of Class A common stock. The dividend will be paid on or about June 16, 2023 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on June 9, 2023.

    First Quarter 2023 Highlights

    • Total AUM of $29.9 billion, inclusive of discretionary AUM of $21.3 billion and non-discretionary AUM of $8.6 billion at March 31, 2023.
    • Revenue of $29.4 million.
    • U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) consolidated net income and net income attributable to Silvercrest of $5.3 million and $3.2 million, respectively.

    _________________________
    1Adjusted measures are non-GAAP measures and are explained and reconciled to the comparable GAAP measures in Exhibits 2 and 3.

    2Adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share measures for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are based on the number of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2023. 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.

    3We 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 $29.9 Billion

    Silvercrest’s discretionary assets under management decreased by $2.5 billion, or 10.5%, to $21.3 billion at March 31, 2023, from $23.8 billion at March 31, 2022. The decrease was attributable to net client outflows of $1.4 billion and market depreciation of $1.1 billion. Silvercrest’s total AUM decreased by $1.3 billion, or 4.2%, to $29.9 billion at March 31, 2023, from $31.2 billion at March 31, 2022. The decrease was attributable to market depreciation of $1.6 billion, partially offset by net client inflows of $0.3 billion.

    Silvercrest’s discretionary assets under management increased by $0.4 billion, or 1.9%, to $21.3 billion at March 31, 2023, from $20.9 billion at December 31, 2022. The increase was attributable to market appreciation of $0.6 billion partially offset by net client outflows of $0.2 billion. Silvercrest’s total AUM increased by $1.0 billion, or 3.5%, to $29.9 billion at March 31, 2023, from $28.9 billion at December 31, 2022. The increase was attributable to market appreciation of $1.2 billion partially offset by net client outflows of $0.2 billion.

    First Quarter 2023 vs. First Quarter 2022

    Revenue decreased by $4.1 million, or 12.2%, to $29.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from $33.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. This decrease was driven by market depreciation and net client outflows in discretionary assets under management.

    Total expenses increased by $4.6 million, or 25.5%, to $22.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from $18.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Compensation and benefits expense decreased by $2.2 million, or 11.6%, to $16.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from $18.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in the accrual for bonuses of $2.6 million partially offset by an increase in salaries and benefits of $0.4 million primarily as a result of merit-based increases and newly hired staff. General and administrative expenses increased by $6.8 million to $6.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from ($0.6) million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. This was primarily attributable to an adjustment to the fair value of contingent consideration related to the Cortina Acquisition of $6.5 million recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2022, increases in professional fees of $0.1 million, portfolio and system expenses of $0.2 million and travel and entertainment expenses of $0.1 million.

    Consolidated net income was $5.3 million or 18.0% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to consolidated net income of $12.4 million or 37.0% of revenue for the same period in the prior year. Net income attributable to Silvercrest was $3.2 million, or $0.34 per basic share and $0.33 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Our Adjusted Net Income1 was $5.0 million, or $0.36 per adjusted basic share and $0.35 per adjusted diluted share2 for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

    Adjusted EBITDA1 was $8.2 million or 27.8% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $10.3 million or 30.6% of revenue for the same period in the prior year.

    Liquidity and Capital Resources

    Cash and cash equivalents were $41.6 million at March 31, 2023, compared to $77.4 million at December 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2023, there was $4.5 million outstanding under our term loan with City National Bank and nothing outstanding on our revolving credit facility with City National Bank.

    Silvercrest Asset Management Group Inc.’s total equity was $84.4 million at March 31, 2023. We had 9,473,655 shares of Class A common stock outstanding and 4,543,825 shares of Class B common stock outstanding at March 31, 2023.

    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.
