Pzena Investment Management, Inc. Reports Results for the Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2008

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--February 10, 2009--Pzena Investment Management, Inc. (NYSE: PZN):

Pzena Investment Management, Inc. (NYSE: PZN) reported fourth quarter 2008 net income of $3.4 million and basic earnings per share of $0.56, compared with net income of $0.7 million and basic earnings per share of $0.12 for the fourth quarter of 2007. On a pro forma basis, fourth quarter net income was $0.5 million, or $0.09 per basic and diluted share, compared with fourth quarter 2007 net income of $1.1 million, or $0.18 per basic and diluted share. The company reported operating income of $15.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2008, compared with operating income of $20.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2007. Fourth quarter 2008 results were positively impacted by the partial reversal of previously accrued discretionary bonuses.

For the year ended December 31, 2008, the company generated a net loss of $3.7 million, or $0.60 per share, compared with net income of $0.7 million, or $0.12 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2007. Net income for the fourth quarter and full year 2007 are identical as both represent results of the company subsequent to its initial public offering on October 30, 2007. On a pro forma basis, net income was $2.8 million and diluted earnings per share was $0.45 for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared with net income of $4.9 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.81 for the year ended December 31, 2007. The company generated operating income of $64.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared with $4.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2007. On a pro forma basis, operating income was $101.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2007.

The pro forma adjustments for 2008 exclude the impact of: (i) the establishment, on September 30, 2008, of a valuation allowance assessed against, and a related reduction to, the respective deferred tax asset and associated liability to selling shareholders originally recorded as part of the company’s initial public offering; and (ii) the waiver, by its selling shareholders, of all payments due to them for the 2008 and 2009 tax years under the tax receivable agreement. Pro forma adjustments for 2007 give effect to: (i) the company’s initial public offering on October 30, 2007; (ii) the term loan agreement, as amended, completed by Pzena’s operating company on July 23, 2007; (iii) the amendment of Pzena’s operating company’s operating agreement on March 31, 2007 to remove all mandatory unit redemption provisions; and (iv) the acceleration of all outstanding unvested operating company units and options as of March 31, 2007.

All 2007 adjustments have been recorded as if they had occurred at the beginning of each period presented. The pro forma earnings per share figures have been presented assuming that all stock and stock equivalents have been outstanding as of the beginning of each period presented. Management believes that these pro forma adjustments, and the non-GAAP measures derived from them, provide information to better analyze the company’s operations between periods and over time. Investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures disclosed in this press release with the most comparable GAAP measures are included in the financial tables attached to this press release.

At December 31, 2008, the company managed $10.7 billion in total assets, a decrease of 54.7% from $23.6 billion at December 31, 2007, and a decrease of 31.0% from $15.5 billion at September 30, 2008. During the quarter ended December 31, 2008, assets under management declined due to $3.9 billion in market depreciation and net outflows of $0.9 billion.

At December 31, 2008, the company managed $6.4 billion in separate accounts and $4.3 billion in sub-advised funds. For the quarter ended December 31, 2008, assets in separately-managed accounts declined by $3.0 billion, or 31.9%, from $9.4 billion at September 30, 2008, due to $2.4 billion in market depreciation and net outflows of $0.6 billion. During the same period, sub-advised assets declined by $1.8 billion, or 29.5%, from $6.1 billion, due to $1.5 billion in market depreciation and net outflows of $0.3 billion.

Revenues were $18.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2008, a decrease of 48.3% from $34.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2007, and a decrease of 28.3% from $25.1 million for the third quarter of 2008. For the year ended December 31, 2008, revenues were $101.4 million, a decrease of 31.1% from $147.1 million for 2007.

Average assets under management for the fourth quarter of 2008 was $12.0 billion, a decrease of 54.5% from $26.4 billion for the fourth quarter of 2007, and 31.8% from $17.6 billion for the third quarter of 2008. For the year ended December 31, 2008, average assets under management was $18.1 billion, a decrease of 36.0% from $28.3 billion for 2007.

Weighted average fees increased to 59.8 basis points for the fourth quarter of 2008 from 53.0 basis points for the fourth quarter of 2007, and from 56.9 basis points for the third quarter of 2008. These increases were primarily due to an increase in weighted average fees for separately-managed accounts and, on an year over year basis, a shift in asset mix toward separately-managed accounts. Weighted average fees of separately-managed accounts increased to 75.2 basis points for the fourth quarter of 2008, from 64.9 basis points for the fourth quarter of 2007, and from 67.1 basis points for the third quarter of 2008. Weighted average fees of sub-advised accounts decreased to 37.0 basis points for the fourth quarter of 2008, from 37.2 basis points for the fourth quarter of 2007, and from 40.6 basis points for the third quarter of 2008. Separately-managed accounts comprised 59.8% of total AUM as of December 31, 2008, increasing from 59.3% as of December 31, 2007, and decreasing from 60.6% as of September 30, 2008.

Total operating expenses decreased by $11.0 million, or 79.1%, to $2.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2008, from $13.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2007. Operating expenses in the fourth quarter of 2008 decreased by approximately 73.1% compared to third quarter 2008 operating expenses of $10.8 million, primarily as a result of the reversal of previously accrued discretionary bonuses and reduced variable compensation expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2008, operating expenses were $37.0 million, compared with $142.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2007. On a pro forma basis, operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2007 were $45.9 million. The year over year decrease from full year pro forma 2007 operating expenses was primarily the result of lower compensation costs and decreased professional and data services costs, which offset the increased costs associated with becoming a public company.

As of December 31, 2008, employee headcount was 68, down from 79 at December 31, 2007, and down from 75 at September 30, 2008. These decreases were primarily the result of staff reductions in back office operations undertaken in the fourth quarter of 2008, as well as natural attrition throughout the year.

Operating income for the fourth quarter of 2008 was $15.1 million, compared to $20.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2007, and $14.3 million for the third quarter of 2008. As discussed above, these year over year and sequential increases in fourth quarter operating income were generated primarily by the reversal of previously accrued discretionary bonuses and reduced variable compensation expense. For the year ended December 31, 2008, the company generated operating income of $64.4 million, compared with $4.4 million for 2007. On a pro forma basis, operating income was $101.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2007.

Operating margin was 83.8% for the fourth quarter of 2008, compared with 60.0% for the fourth quarter of 2007, and 57.0% for the third quarter of 2008. As discussed above, the year over year and sequential increases in fourth quarter operating margin were generated primarily by the reversal of previously accrued discretionary bonuses and reduced variable compensation expense. For the year ended December 31, 2008, operating margin was 63.5%, compared with 3.0% for 2007. On a pro forma basis, operating margin was 63.5% for the year ended December 31, 2008 compared with 68.8% for the year ended December 31, 2007.

Other income/(expense) was an expense of $5.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2008, which consisted primarily of $7.3 million in charges related to the negative performance of the company’s investments in its own products. These charges were partially offset by $2.9 million in income generated from the reduction of the liability to the company’s selling shareholders associated with the waiver of all payments due to them for the 2008 and 2009 tax years under the tax receivable agreement. Other income/(expense) was an expense of $2.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2007 and income of $49.3 million for the third quarter of 2008. The $3.3 million year over year decline in fourth quarter other income/(expense) arose primarily as a result of the negative performance of company investments in its own products, partially offset by the income associated with the tax receivable agreement waiver. The $55.1 million sequential decline in fourth quarter other income/(expense) was driven largely by the $53.3 million credit to other income associated with the reduction in the liability to its selling shareholders that occurred in conjunction with the valuation allowance taken on September 30, 2008.

Other income/(expense) was income of $35.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, and consisted primarily of $56.2 million in income related to the reduction in the liability to selling shareholders and tax receivable waiver, partially offset by $18.2 million in losses generated by the negative performance of the company’s investments in its own products and $3.4 million in interest charges associated with the operating company’s term loan agreement. Other income/(expense) was an expense of $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2007. This $37.8 million year over year increase in other income/(expense) was generated primarily as a result of the reduction in the company’s liability to its selling shareholders, partially offset by the negative performance of its investments and the full-year impact of the interest expense associated with the operating company’s term loan.

The provision for income taxes was $0.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2008, compared with $1.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2007 and $64.0 million for the third quarter of 2008. The sequential decrease in the provision for income taxes was largely the result of the third quarter $62.7 million valuation allowance assessed against the deferred tax asset established as part of the company’s initial public offering. On a pro forma basis, the provision for income taxes was $2.0 million for the fourth quarter 2007. The year over year decline in the fourth quarter pro forma provision for income taxes was generated primarily by a reduction in taxable income.

For the year ended December 31, 2008, the provision for income taxes was $67.7 million, compared with $5.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2007. This increase was due to the 2008 valuation allowance and, to a lesser extent, the full year effect of the company’s liability for corporate taxes subsequent to its initial public offering in 2007. On a pro forma basis, the provision for income taxes declined $4.0 million to $5.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2008 from $9.0 million for the year ended December 31 2007, primarily as a result of a reduction in taxable income.

See Notes to Pro Forma Adjustments


(A)		Reflects an adjustment to remove (i) the effect of the valuation allowance assessed against the deferred tax asset and the writedown of the associated liability to selling shareholders which were established as part of the company’s initial public offering; and (ii) the waiver, by the company’s selling shareholders, of all payments due to them for the 2008 and 2009 tax years under the tax receivable agreement.

(B)		Reflects an adjustment to remove unit-based compensation charges and one-time merit compensation associated with the initial public offering. Effective March 31, 2007, the obligation of the operating company to mandatorily redeem its membership units was eliminated. Also on this date, vesting on all outstanding unvested operating company units and options was accelerated. As a result of these changes, there will be no further unit-based compensation expense as of and from this date.

(C)		Represents an adjustment to remove one-time costs associated with the direct additional legal and accounting fees incurred by Pzena Investment Management, LLC as a result of the initial public offering of Pzena Investment Management, Inc. on October 30, 2007.

(D)		Reflects the pro forma impact of federal, state and local taxes on the income allocated from Pzena Investment Management, LLC. Historically, the operating company was subject solely to the New York City Unincorporated Business Tax (UBT). For periods prior to July 23, 2007, taxes have been adjusted to reflect the full-period UBT deductibility of the interest expense associated with the term loan agreement completed by the operating company on July 23, 2007.

(E)		Represents the non-controlling interest allocation of approximately 90.4% of the income of Pzena Investment Management, Inc. to Pzena Investment Management, LLC.

(F)		Represents the effect of interest expense and loan origination fees amortization associated with the three-year term loan agreement completed by the operating company on July 23, 2007.

(G)		Reflects an adjustment to remove unit-based charges associated with the operating company’s capital units. Effective March 31, 2007, the obligation of the operating company to mandatorily redeem its membership units was eliminated. Also on this date, vesting on all outstanding unvested operating company units and options was accelerated. As a result of these changes, no further unit-based compensation expenses were recognized as of and from March 31, 2007.
