Management Commentary
“The company had outflows during the fourth quarter from investment strategies that have experienced performance challenges and from strategies that were closed to new investors. These challenges were exacerbated by the headwinds of overall industry outflows in U.S. and international equities during the fourth quarter,” said John P. Calamos, Sr., Chief Executive Officer and Global Co-Chief Investment Officer.
“Investment performance is our number one priority and we are very focused on continuing to improve our investment results. In hindsight, our outlook as we entered 2012 was too pessimistic, which hindered the performance of some of our strategies. We are more positive moving into 2013, although we expect continued volatility in financial markets. Consistent with our more positive economic outlook, we have revisited a number of our investment strategies and made adjustments. Our investment team is finding new opportunities in various sectors and asset classes globally, including the convertible market, and we recently reopened our market neutral and lower volatility equity strategies, which were closed to new investors during 2012. We believe reopening these strategies will help to attract new investors and flows during 2013. Also, with the addition of a Value team and the broadening of our alternatives platform through the acquisition of a Long/Short team during 2012, we are working to capitalize on a broader opportunity set and to offer our clients additional products to meet their asset allocation needs,” said Calamos.
“The Board of Directors of CAM authorized the repurchase of up to 3 million shares of the company’s outstanding Class A Common Stock by Calamos Investments LLC over the next 2 years. The program was implemented primarily to manage the dilution from share issuance under the company’s incentive compensation plan,” said Calamos.

Quarterly Financial Results
Revenues
Revenues for the fourth quarter were $76.9 million, a decrease of 7% from $82.4 million during the same period last year. Investment management fees for the fourth quarter of 2012 were $60.8 million, a decrease of 4% from the same quarter last year. The 3% decline in Average Total Assets was the driver of the decrease in investment management fees. Distribution and underwriting fees decreased by $3.1 million compared to the same period in 2011 due to lower asset-based distribution fees across most share classes.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the fourth quarter were $48.8 million, a decrease of 5%, from the same quarter last year. Compensation expenses of $19.2 million for the quarter decreased by 3%, from the same quarter last year due to decreases in accruals for performance-based incentive compensation and lower equity compensation, partially offset by increases in salary and benefits expenses. For the quarter, distribution expenses were $14.2 million, a decrease of $1.5 million, due primarily to lower mutual fund assets under management across most share classes. Amortization of deferred sales commissions decreased by $730,000, compared to the fourth quarter of 2011 due to the increasing average age of Class B and C share assets. Marketing and sales promotion expenses increased slightly to $4.9 million for the current quarter, compared to $4.7 million in the prior year quarter, increasing mainly due to higher supplemental distribution expenses. General and administrative expenses of $9.6 million for the fourth quarter were unchanged compared to the fourth quarter of 2011.
Operating Income and Margin
Operating income was $28.1 million for the fourth quarter versus $31.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. Operating margin was 36.5% for the fourth quarter, down from 37.6% in the fourth quarter of 2011. The decrease in operating income and operating margin, as compared to the same period in the prior year, was due to a decline in total revenues which was greater than the decrease in total operating expenses.
Earnings Per Share
Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter was $0.32, an increase of $0.02 from the same period a year ago. GAAP diluted earnings per share for the current quarter was $0.22 versus $0.00 for the same period a year ago. GAAP diluted earnings per share increased from the same quarter in the prior year as the deferred tax valuation allowance recorded in the fourth quarter of 2011 was partially offset by lower revenues.
2012 Results
Revenues
Revenues for the year were $326.7 million, a decrease of 7%, from $352.3 million in the same period of the prior year. For the year, investment management fees were $255.8 million, a decrease of 4% compared to the same period in 2011. The decrease in investment management fees was driven by a 5% decrease in Average Total Assets. Distribution and underwriting fees decreased by $14.7 million compared to 2011 due to lower asset-based distribution fees across most share classes.
Operating Expenses
For the twelve months of 2012, operating expenses were $206.9 million, a 2% decrease from $212.0 million in 2011. Compensation expenses of $82.2 million increased by 2%, compared to the same period last year due to increases in salary and benefits expenses and accruals for performance-based incentive compensation, partially offset by a reversal of equity compensation expense for forfeited awards. Distribution expenses for the year were $60.6 million, a decrease of $8.4 million, primarily due to a decrease in average mutual fund assets under management. Amortization of deferred sales commissions decreased by $2.1 million compared to the prior year, primarily due to the increasing average age of Class C share assets. For the year, marketing and sales promotion expenses were $19.5 million, compared to $17.1 million for the prior year, increasing primarily as a result of expense caps on certain funds which are supported by CAM to limit annual ordinary operating expenses. General and administrative expenses were $40.2 million for the year compared to $39.2 million for the prior year, an increase of $1.0 million. The increase in expense was primarily due to an increase in travel expenses that occurred throughout the year and client reimbursements related to trade correction expenses that were recorded in the first quarter of 2012.
Operating Income and Margin
For the year, operating income was $119.8 million versus $140.3 million in the prior year. Operating margin was 36.7% compared to 39.8% for 2011. The decline in operating income and operating margin were both driven by the decrease in total revenues, partially offset by lower total operating expenses.
Earnings Per Share
Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was $1.22 for the year versus $1.32 for 2011, while GAAP diluted earnings per share for 2012 was $0.88 versus $0.77 for 2011.
Non-Operating Results
Non-operating income, net of non-controlling interest in partnerships, was $53,000 during the fourth quarter of 2012, as presented in Table B, compared to a non-operating loss of $1.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2011. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2012, non-operating income, net of non-controlling interest in partnerships, was $19.8 million compared to $16.5 million in the prior year.
Total corporate investment portfolio returns, as presented in Table C, include investment income, net of non-controlling interest in partnerships, and net gains and losses on securities designated as “available-for-sale.” The company’s investment portfolio had a return of (0.4%) for the fourth quarter of 2012 and a return of 7.1% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012.
Income Taxes
Income tax provision was $1.7 million during the fourth quarter of 2012, compared to $6.6 million during the same period of 2011. The decrease was primarily due to a $4.0 million valuation allowance that was recorded in 2011 and certain deferred tax assets being adjusted during the fourth quarter of 2012, see Table D in the Appendix.
The $4.0 million valuation allowance that was recorded in 2011 related to CAM’s deferred tax asset which partially resulted from capital loss carryforwards from 2008 and 2009. As of December 31, 2012, the deferred tax asset associated with these capital loss carryforwards, net of valuation allowance, was $3.1 million. The ultimate realization of this asset is dependent upon the generation of sufficient capital gains prior to the expiration of capital loss carryforwards in 2013 and 2014. There was no change in the deferred tax valuation allowance in the fourth quarter of 2012.
Financial Position
The company’s financial position remains strong with a high degree of liquidity. As of December 31, 2012, the corporate investment portfolio included $106.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and $390.0 million in investments that were principally comprised of investments in products that the company manages. The corporate investment portfolio is used to provide seed capital for new funds, maintain conservative levels of capital for the company’s regulated subsidiaries and to invest in other corporate strategic initiatives. The company’s financial strength is instrumental in maintaining the firm’s investment-grade credit rating.
As of December 31, 2012, total debt was $92.1 million and total stockholders’ equity was $481.8 million.
Newly Authorized Repurchase Program
Under the repurchase program, Calamos Investments LLC is authorized to repurchase up to 3 million shares at prevailing market prices, through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions at such times, manner and prices as are determined by management, subject to market conditions and applicable legal requirements. The program was implemented primarily to manage the dilution of share issuances under the company’s incentive compensation plan. The repurchases are expected to occur over the next two years. However, there is no minimum number of shares to repurchase, the Company may discontinue repurchases at any time and there is no assurance as to the number, if any, of shares which may actually be repurchased under the program.

Table A – Notes
Calamos Asset Management, Inc.
Notes to Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP
The company provides investors with certain adjusted, non-GAAP financial measures including non-GAAP net income attributable to CAM and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. These non-GAAP financial measures are provided to supplement the consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis. These non-GAAP financial measures adjust GAAP financial measures to include the tax benefit from the amortization of deferred taxes on intangible assets and to exclude the increase in deferred tax valuation adjustment, certain professional service fees related to CAM’s review of options for creating a greater degree of clarity regarding our market capitalization and CAM’s non-operating income (loss), net of taxes. The company believes these adjustments are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of operating financial performance, as well as to facilitate comparisons with historical earnings results. These adjustments to the company’s GAAP results are made with the intent of providing investors a more complete understanding of the company’s underlying earnings results and trends and marketplace performance. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among the primary indicators management uses as a basis of managing the company.
The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors should review the reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided in Table A.
Non-GAAP net income attributable to CAM is calculated by adjusting the following items from GAAP net income attributable to CAM:
(i) amortization of deferred taxes on intangible assets associated with the election under section 754 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (Section 754 election);
(ii) increase in deferred tax valuation allowance
(iii) certain professional service fees, net of taxes; and
(iv) CAM’s non-operating income (loss), net of taxes.
Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing (i) Non-GAAP net income attributable to CAM by (ii) diluted weighted average shares outstanding.
The deferred tax assets from the Section 754 election allows for a quarterly reduction of $2.0 million in future income taxes owed by the company through 2019, to the extent that a tax payable exists during the quarter. As a result, this cash savings will accrue solely for the benefit of the shareholders of the company’s common stock. The company believes that adjusting this item from the calculation of the above non-GAAP items can be a useful measure in allowing investors to see the company’s performance. The change in the allowance on the deferred tax asset is excluded from the above non-GAAP items as it may fluctuate in future periods affecting prior period comparisons. Certain professional service fees related to CAM’s review of options for creating a greater degree of clarity regarding our market capitalization, and non-operating income (loss) are excluded from the above non-GAAP items as they can distort comparisons between periods. As noted above, the company believes that measures excluding these items are useful in analyzing operating trends and allowing for more comparability between periods, which may be useful to investors.
The company believes that non-GAAP net income attributable to CAM and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share are useful measures of performance and may be useful to investors, because they provide measures of the company’s core business activities adjusting for items that are non-cash and costs that may distort comparisons between periods. These measures are provided in addition to the company's net income attributable to CAM and diluted earnings per share calculated under GAAP, but are not substitutes for those calculations.

4 The income tax provision for the three months ended December 31, 2012 includes an adjustment to deferred taxes on equity compensation and has resulted in a lower rate for the quarter. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2012, the income tax provision includes a $1.9 million valuation allowance recorded in the second quarter of 2012. Excluding this allowance, CAM’s effective income tax rate would be 35.0% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012.
In addition, the 2011 income tax provision includes a $4.0 million valuation allowance recorded in the fourth quarter and $5.2 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011. Excluding this allowance, CAM’s effective income tax rate would be 38.5% for the fourth quarter 2011 and 37.7% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011.
