JLL Reports Financial Results for Third-Quarter 2023

Growth in resilient business line revenues helped offset continued market-wide pullback in transaction activity

CHICAGO, November 2, 2023 – Jones Lang LaSalle Incorporated (NYSE: JLL) today reported operating income of $119.1 million for the third quarter of 2023. Diluted earnings per share were $1.23 and Adjusted diluted earnings per share1 were $2.01 for the quarter.

•Third-quarter revenue was $5.1 billion, down 2% in local currency1, and fee revenue1 was $1.8 billion, down 13% in local currency1

◦Capital Markets impacted by dampened transaction market in rising interest rate environment

◦Leasing, within Markets Advisory, declined across asset classes, notably in large-scale transactions amidst elevated economic uncertainty

◦Also within Markets Advisory, Property Management momentum delivered double-digit growth

◦Work Dynamics achieved broad-based growth across all service lines as new contract wins ramped up

•Margin reflected lower transaction-based revenues and equity losses, with recent cost mitigation actions reducing expense base

•Generated nearly $190 million incremental cash provided by operating activities for the quarter, despite lower net income

“JLL’s third-quarter financial results reflected continued focus on diversifying our business. During the quarter, fee revenue expanded across our resilient business lines while the industry-wide slowdown in investment sales and leasing transactions continued,” said Christian Ulbrich, JLL CEO. “Our investments in technology and the improved efficiency of our operating model position us to expand margins even if a slower transaction environment persists. When combined with our global scale and 'One JLL' approach, these factors will enable long-term growth and shareholder value creation."

Revenue

Revenue and fee revenue decreased 2% and 13%, respectively, compared with the prior-year quarter. Businesses with resilient revenues continued to deliver fee revenue growth for the quarter, as Property Management, within Markets Advisory, grew 12%; Workplace Management, within Work Dynamics, grew 5%; and JLL Technologies increased 5%. Consistent with the first half of 2023, economic uncertainty and elevated interest rates along with geopolitical instability in several geographies adversely impacted most of the transaction-based businesses, notably Investment Sales and Debt/Equity Advisory within Capital Markets, and Leasing within Markets Advisory. However, Project Management, within Work Dynamics, was up 8% due to continued project execution in several geographies, and Portfolio Services and Other within Work Dynamics benefited from outsized transaction activity in the current quarter. The decline in LaSalle's top-line was largely due to the absence of incentive fees.

Refer to segment performance highlights for additional detail. The following charts reflect the segment proportion of Revenue and Fee revenue for the current and prior-year quarters.

Net income, Adjusted EBITDA and Margin Performance

Net income attributable to common shareholders for the third quarter was $59.7 million, compared with $140.2 million in 2022, and Adjusted EBITDA was $205.2 million, compared with $276.2 million last year. Compared with 2022, interest expense, net of interest income, increased $13.9 million for the quarter due to a higher effective interest rate as well as an increase in the average outstanding borrowings under our credit facilities. In addition, the increase in restructuring and acquisition charges was primarily driven by higher severance and other employment-related charges associated with cost-out actions.

Diluted earnings per share for the third quarter were $1.23, down from $2.88 in 2022; Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $2.01, compared with $3.40 last year.

Margin was impacted by lower transaction-based revenue and the change in Equity earnings/losses, net of carried interest. Partially offsetting these items was the benefit of recent cost reduction actions.

The nine months ended September 30, 2023, had Net income attributable to common shareholders of $53.0 million, compared with income of $479.7 million last year, and Adjusted EBITDA was $430.3 million this year, compared with $908.8 million in 2022. Diluted earnings per share were $1.10 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, down from diluted earnings per share of $9.65 in 2022; Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $3.17, compared with $11.35 last year.

Aggregation of Segment Adjusted EBITDA (in millions)

Cash Flows and Capital Allocation:

Net cash provided by operating activities was $325.7 million for the third quarter of 2023, compared with $137.5 million in the comparative quarter. Free Cash Flow5 was an inflow of $276.2 million this quarter, compared with $88.4 million in the third quarter of 2022. Incremental cash flows associated with trade receivables, lower commission payments and $59.0 million less in cash taxes paid outpaced the decline in cash provided by earnings for the quarter. This $67.2 million year-over-year decline in Q3 cash provided by earnings was largely driven by the Capital Markets and Markets Advisory change in business performance.

In the third quarter of 2023, the company repurchased 123,160 shares for $20.1 million. In the third quarter of 2022, 909,200 shares were repurchased, returning $153.5 million to shareholders. As of September 30, 2023, $1,115.5 million remained authorized for repurchase.

Net Debt, Leverage and Liquidity5:

	September 30, 2023		June 30, 2023	September 30, 2022
Total Net Debt (in millions)	$	1,698.6	1,941.5	1,697.6
Net Leverage Ratio	2.2x		2.3x	1.1x
Corporate Liquidity (in billions)	$	2.1	1.9	2.1

The decrease in Net Debt from June 30, 2023, was primarily due to cash provided by operating activities in the third quarter. The higher year-over-year leverage ratio was entirely driven by a decline in the trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA (which includes the impact of equity losses from the second quarter).

Note: For discussion and reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures, see the Notes following the Financial Statements in this news release. Percentage variances in the Performance Highlights below are calculated and presented on a local currency basis, unless otherwise noted.

The year-over-year declines in Markets Advisory revenue and fee revenue were largely driven by Leasing and reflected lower transaction volumes and a decline in average deal size across nearly all asset types, particularly in the office sector. Continued economic uncertainty has delayed commercial real estate decision making, particularly for large-scale leasing actions. The decrease in Advisory, Consulting and Other was substantially driven by the absence of revenues associated with a business exited during the fourth quarter of 2022. Property Management continued to achieve top-line growth, primarily attributable to portfolio expansion in the Americas and incremental fees from interest-rate sensitive contract terms in the U.K.

The lower margin was predominantly attributable to the lower Leasing fee revenue described above, partially offset by cost containment measures.

Note: "Valuation Advisory" was changed to "Value and Risk Advisory" in the third quarter of 2023.

The lower Capital Markets revenue and fee revenue continued to reflect the meaningful drop in transaction volumes compared with 2022, as ample capital continues to remain heavily sidelined with economic and interest rate uncertainty. This impact was most pronounced in Investment Sales and Debt/Equity Advisory, which experienced declines across nearly all asset sectors and geographies compared with the prior-year quarter. This outperformed broader market trends as Q3 global market volumes for investment sales were down 46% in USD (48% in local currency) according to JLL Research. The decline in Loan Servicing was attributable to $3.8 million of lower prepayment fees, as refinancing activity slowed over the last twelve months, overshadowing continued growth in servicing fees from the portfolio originated under the Fannie Mae DUS program.

The margin reduction for the quarter was predominantly driven by lower Investment Sales and Debt/Equity Advisory revenue.

Work Dynamics revenue and fee revenue growth was broad-based across service lines and included strong Project Management results from ongoing project execution, particularly in the U.K., MENA, Italy and Southeast Asia. Portfolio Services outperformed the prior-year quarter primarily due to one large transaction on behalf of a client in the United States. Workplace Management continued to deliver growth, highlighted by the ramp-up of new, global client wins that began this quarter.

The net margin expansion was primarily attributable to the revenue growth described above, notably from Portfolio Services, together with continued cost management.

Note: For discussion and reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures, see the Notes following the Financial Statements in this news release. Percentage variances in the Performance Highlights below are calculated and presented on a local currency basis, unless otherwise noted.
(a) Included in Segment operating loss for JLL Technologies is a reduction in carried interest expense of $0.1 million and $9.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, and carried interest expense of $0.6 million and $16.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, related to Equity earnings of the segment.

The increases in JLL Technologies revenue and fee revenue over the prior-year quarter were primarily due to growth in solutions and service offerings, largely from existing enterprise clients. The current quarter's expansion follows a 54% increase (28% organic) in the prior-year quarter (compared with 2021).

Equity losses this quarter were primarily attributable to modest valuation decreases to a handful of JLL Technologies' investments, reflecting subsequent financing rounds at decreased per-share values and lower NAV per share values for proptech funds.

Margin improvement was attributable to (i) fee revenue growth, (ii) an approximate $5 million reduction to incentive compensation, related to current-quarter true-ups based on performance achievement, and (iii) improved operating efficiencies, partially offset by the change in equity earnings/losses, net of carried interest.

Note: For discussion and reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures, see the Notes following the Financial Statements in this news release. Percentage variances in the Performance Highlights below are calculated and presented on a local currency basis, unless otherwise noted.

Lower revenue over the prior-year quarter was primarily due to continued subdued transaction volumes, as evidenced by lower incentive and transaction fees. Advisory fee performance remained resilient despite real estate valuation declines over the trailing twelve months, impacting assets under management.

The current quarter's equity losses were primarily attributable to valuation declines in the co-investment portfolio compared with negligible valuation changes in 2022.

The Adjusted EBITDA margin reduction was driven by the equity losses and reduction in incentive fees. Partially offsetting these items were the absence of prior-year expenses to right-size the advisory fee platform as well as lower incentive compensation expense.

Financial Statement Notes

1.    Management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to develop budgets and forecasts, measure and reward performance against those budgets and forecasts, and enhance comparability to prior periods. These measures are believed to be useful to investors and other external stakeholders as supplemental measures of core operating performance and include the following:

(i)Fee revenue and Fee-based operating expenses,

(ii)Adjusted EBITDA attributable to common shareholders ("Adjusted EBITDA") and Adjusted EBITDA margin,

(iii)Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders and Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share,

(iv)Percentage changes against prior periods, presented on a local currency basis, and

(v)Free Cash Flow.

However, non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered alternatives to measures determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Any measure that eliminates components of a company’s capital structure, cost of operations or investments, or other results has limitations as a performance measure. In light of these limitations, management also considers GAAP financial measures and does not rely solely on non-GAAP financial measures. Because the company's non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Adjustments to GAAP Financial Measures Used to Calculate non-GAAP Financial Measures

Gross Contract Costs represent certain costs associated with client-dedicated employees and third-party vendors and subcontractors and are directly or indirectly reimbursed through the fees we receive. These costs are presented on a gross basis in Operating expenses with the equal amount of corresponding fees in Revenue. Excluding gross contract costs from both Fee revenue and Fee-based operating expenses more accurately reflects how the company manages its expense base and operating margins and also enables a more consistent performance assessment across a portfolio of contracts with varying payment terms and structures.

Net Non-Cash Mortgage Servicing Rights ("MSR") and Mortgage Banking Derivative Activity consists of the balances presented within Revenue composed of (i) derivative gains/losses resulting from mortgage banking loan commitment and warehousing activity and (ii) gains recognized from the retention of MSR upon origination and sale of mortgage loans, offset by (iii) amortization of MSR intangible assets over the period that net servicing income is projected to be received. Non-cash derivative gains/losses resulting from mortgage banking loan commitment and warehousing activity are calculated as the estimated fair value of loan commitments and subsequent changes thereof, primarily represented by the estimated net cash flows associated with future servicing rights. MSR gains and corresponding MSR intangible assets are calculated as the present value of estimated cash flows over the estimated mortgage servicing periods. The above activity is reported entirely within Revenue of the Capital Markets segment. Excluding net non-cash MSR and mortgage banking derivative activity reflects how the company manages and evaluates performance because the excluded activity is non-cash in nature.

Restructuring and Acquisition Charges primarily consist of: (i) severance and employment-related charges, including those related to external service providers, incurred in conjunction with a structural business shift, which can be represented by a notable change in headcount, change in leadership or transformation of business processes; (ii) acquisition, transaction and integration-related charges, including fair value adjustments, which are generally non-cash in the periods such adjustments are made, to assets and liabilities recorded in purchase accounting such as earn-out liabilities and intangible assets; and (iii) lease exit charges. Such activity is excluded as the amounts are generally either non-cash in nature or the anticipated benefits from the expenditures would not likely be fully realized until future periods. Restructuring and acquisition charges are excluded from segment operating results and therefore are not line items in the segments’ reconciliation to Adjusted EBITDA.

Amortization of Acquisition-Related Intangibles, primarily composed of the estimated fair value ascribed at closing of an acquisition to assets such as acquired management contracts, customer backlog and relationships, and trade name, is more notable following the company's increase in acquisition activity in recent years. Such non-cash activity is excluded as the change in period-over-period activity is generally the result of longer-term strategic decisions and therefore not necessarily indicative of core operating results.

Gain or Loss on Disposition reflects the gain or loss recognized on the sale of businesses. Given the low frequency of business disposals by the company historically, the gain or loss directly associated with such activity is excluded as it is not considered indicative of core operating performance. In 2023, the $0.5 million net loss included $1.8 million of loss related to the disposition of a business in Markets Advisory, partially offset by a $1.3 million gain related to the disposition of a business in Markets Advisory and Capital Markets. In 2022, the $7.5 million net loss included $10.5 million of loss related to the disposition of the Russia business, partially offset by a $3.0 million gain related to a disposition within JLL Technologies.

Interest on Employee Loans, Net of Forgiveness reflects interest accrued on employee loans less the amount of accrued interest forgiven. Certain employees (predominantly in our Leasing and Capital Markets businesses) receive cash payments structured as loans, with interest. Employees earn forgiveness of the loan based on performance, generally calculated as a percentage of revenue production. Such forgiven amounts are reflected in Compensation and benefits expense. Given the interest accrued on these employee loans and subsequent forgiveness are non-cash and the amounts perfectly offset over the life of the loan, the activity is not indicative of core operating performance and is excluded from non-GAAP measures.

Operating Results - Local Currency

In discussing operating results, the company reports Adjusted EBITDA margins and refers to percentage changes in local currency, unless otherwise noted. Amounts presented on a local currency basis are calculated by translating the current period results of foreign operations to U.S. dollars using the foreign currency exchange rates from the comparative period. Management believes this methodology provides a framework for assessing performance and operations excluding the effect of foreign currency fluctuations.

The following table reflects the reconciliation to local currency amounts for consolidated (i) Revenue, (ii) Fee revenue, (iii) Operating income and (iv) Adjusted EBITDA.
