2009 Second Quarter Results

2009 Second Quarter Dividend of $0.02 per Class A Share

NEW YORK, August 4, 2009 – Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC (NYSE:OZM) (the “Company” or “Och-Ziff”) today reported its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2009, and the declaration of a $0.02 per share second quarter cash dividend on its Class A Shares.

Summary Highlights

 

   

Distributable Earnings of $12.6 million, or $0.03 per Adjusted Class A Share, for the 2009 second quarter

   

Assets under management of $20.7 billion as of July 1, 2009, 2% higher than as of April 1, 2009 and 38% lower than as of July 1, 2008

   

Year-to-date net returns through June 30, 2009 of the OZ Master Fund of 12.3%, the OZ Europe Master Fund of 7.0%, the OZ Asia Master Fund of 13.2% and the OZ Global Special Investments Master Fund of 3.6%

“We continued to deliver strong, absolute returns during the second quarter and we extended that trend in the month of July,” said Daniel Och, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Och-Ziff. “The ongoing strength of our returns results from our disciplined risk management and investment process, and also demonstrates the benefits of our multi-strategy approach. We have a long history of positive investment performance because we are able to capitalize on opportunities in any market globally, rather than being dependent on large directional moves in the markets or a particular sector. As a result, we are well positioned to generate strong,
risk-adjusted returns over the coming years.

We also believe that the current redemption cycle is largely over, although there may be some level of additional redemptions as it continues to taper off. After the events of the past year, investors more than ever understand the importance of manager selection and that there is a significant differentiation among alternative asset managers. We remain confident that, as investors begin to re-allocate capital to alternative investments, we are well positioned to attract that flow and grow assets under management.”

GAAP NET LOSS ALLOCATED TO CLASS A SHAREHOLDERS

For the 2009 second quarter, Och-Ziff reported a GAAP net loss of $88.3 million, or $1.15 per basic and diluted Class A Share, compared with a GAAP net loss of $60.8 million, or $0.82 per basic and $1.05 per diluted Class A Share, for the 2008 second quarter. The primary drivers of the year-over-year increase in the GAAP net loss were a decline in Management Fees due to lower assets under management and higher compensation expenses as discussed below.

For the 2009 first half, Och-Ziff reported a GAAP net loss of $170.2 million, or $2.22 per basic and diluted Class A Share, compared with a GAAP net loss of $328.9 million, or $4.44 per basic and diluted Class A Share, for the 2008 first half. The primary driver of the year-over-year decrease in the GAAP net loss was an increase in the Net Loss Allocated to Partners’ and Others’ Interests in Income of Consolidated Subsidiaries resulting from the adoption of SFAS No. 160, partially offset by a decline in Management Fees due to lower assets under management and higher compensation expense as discussed below.

The 2009 second quarter and first half GAAP net losses primarily resulted from non-cash expenses of $424.7 million and $844.7 million, respectively, associated with the Company’s reorganization in connection with its initial public offering (“IPO”) in November 2007. These expenses are related to the amortization of Och-Ziff Operating Group A Units (“Group A Units”), which represent equity interests in the Company’s principal operating subsidiaries that were issued to the Company’s pre-IPO owners in exchange for their pre-IPO interests in those subsidiaries. The Group A Units vest annually over five years until November 2012. Accordingly, the amortization of these expenses is expected to result in a GAAP net loss each quarter through the end of 2012. Once vested, the Group A Units may be exchanged on a one-to-one basis for Class A Shares.

Additionally, the GAAP net losses in the 2009 second quarter and first half were driven by non-cash expenses of $26.6 million and $52.5 million, respectively, for the amortization of equity-based compensation. This expense relates to Class A Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”) awarded to all of the Company’s employees in connection with the IPO, which vest annually over four years from the closing of the IPO, and subsequent compensation-related grants. Each RSU represents the right to receive one Class A Share upon vesting.

Also contributing to the GAAP net losses in the 2009 second quarter and first half was compensation expense of $25.4 million relating to the accrual of the estimated discretionary cash bonuses that the Company currently expects to pay to its employees at the end of the fourth quarter of 2009. The Company began to accrue for this estimated expense as a result of a combination of several factors, including strong investment performance in its funds in a year with high-water marks and the importance of maintaining a competitive compensation structure. The remainder of the bonus estimate will be expensed over the next two quarters of this year. The estimate, and therefore the amount of the accrual, may fluctuate during the remainder of 2009 as discretionary cash bonuses are based on total annual revenue, which is influenced by, among other things, the investment performance of the Company’s funds, the level of its assets under management, and

global economic and market conditions. As it has done historically, the Company will determine the actual amount of annual discretionary cash bonuses in the fourth quarter.

SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to analyzing the Company’s results on a GAAP basis, Och-Ziff’s management also uses certain supplemental non-GAAP financial measures. Management uses these measures to assist in its evaluation of the financial performance of the Company’s business and to make operating decisions. Management believes these measures enhance the understanding and comparability of the Company’s results from operations as they exclude the impact of the adjustments discussed below. Management considers it important that investors review the same performance information that it uses.

Economic Income is a measure of pre-tax operating performance that excludes income allocations to the pre-IPO interests of the Company’s partners and Ziff Brothers Investments (the “Ziffs”), reorganization expenses related to the Company’s IPO, equity-based compensation expenses, taxes, the impact of consolidated Och-Ziff funds, or amounts allocated to the Company’s partners and the Ziffs on their direct interests in the Och-Ziff Operating Group, among other adjustments. For further information regarding these adjustments, please see Exhibit 7 of the financial tables that accompany this press release.

Management evaluates Economic Income for the Och-Ziff Funds segment, the Company’s one reportable segment under GAAP, and for the Company’s Other Operations. Economic Income for Other Operations is a non-GAAP measure that is presented on a comparable basis to Economic Income for the Och-Ziff Funds segment. Management also evaluates Total Company Economic Income, which is a non-GAAP measure that equals the sum of Economic Income for the Och-Ziff Funds segment and Other Operations. For reconciliations of Economic Income of the Och-Ziff Funds segment, Other Operations and Total Company to the respective GAAP net losses for the periods discussed below, please see Exhibits 3 through 6 of the financial tables that accompany this press release.

Distributable Earnings is a non-GAAP measure of after-tax operating performance and equals Total Company Economic Income less Adjusted Income Taxes. Adjusted Income Taxes are estimated assuming all Group A Units were converted on a one-to-one basis into Class A Shares. Distributable Earnings per Share is equal to Distributable Earnings divided by the weighted-average number of Adjusted Class A Shares. Adjusted Class A Shares are determined assuming all Group A Units and RSUs were converted on a one-to-one basis into Class A Shares. Management uses Distributable Earnings, among other financial data, to determine the earnings available to distribute as dividends to holders of the Company’s Class A Shares and to the Company’s partners and the Ziffs with respect to their Group A Units. For a reconciliation of Economic Income to Distributable Earnings, please see Exhibit 8 of the financial tables that accompany this press release.

The Company’s supplemental non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP earnings before income taxes, net earnings or cash flow, or as indicative of liquidity or the cash available to fund operations.

2009 SECOND QUARTER DISTRIBUTABLE EARNINGS

The Company’s Distributable Earnings for the 2009 second quarter were $12.6 million, or $0.03 per Adjusted Class A Share, compared with $53.8 million, or $0.13 per Adjusted Class A Share, in the 2008 second quarter. Distributable Earnings for the 2009 first half ended were $39.8 million, or $0.10 per Adjusted Class A Share, compared with $103.6 million, or $0.26 per Adjusted Class A Share, in the 2008 first half. The year-over-year reduction in Distributable Earnings for both periods was primarily attributable to the decline in Management Fees due to lower assets under management and the increase in compensation expenses due to the accrual for 2009 estimated discretionary cash bonuses (as discussed above), partially offset by lower Non-compensation Expenses and lower taxes.

ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT

Och-Ziff’s assets under management were $21.9 billion as of June 30, 2009, 3% lower than the $22.6 billion in assets under management as of March 31, 2009 and 35% lower than the $33.6 billion in assets under management as of June 30, 2008. The $11.7 billion year-over-year decrease was driven by net outflows of $8.2 billion and performance-related depreciation of $3.5 billion during the period. During the 2009 second quarter, the $681.6 million decrease in assets under management was driven by net outflows of approximately $2.1 billion largely offset by performance-related appreciation of approximately $1.5 billion. The net outflows for the 2009 second quarter included redemption requests received for March 31, 2009, but excluded redemption requests received for June 30, 2009 as these redemptions were reflected in assets under management as of July 1, 2009.

Assets under management as of July 1, 2009 were $20.7 billion, which reflected redemption requests received for June 30, 2009 (net of July 1, 2009 capital inflows) of $1.2 billion. Virtually all redemptions for a quarter generally are paid on the first day of the month following the quarter in which the redemption notice was submitted, and capital inflows for that month are accepted on the same day. The Company believes its redemptions remained elevated in the 2009 second quarter due to the continued effect of other alternative asset managers that imposed gates, or who otherwise restricted access to investor capital. Och-Ziff has provided, and continues to provide, liquidity to its fund investors in accordance with the pre-defined terms of its funds.

Estimated assets under management as of August 1, 2009 were $21.5 billion, which reflected August 1, 2009 capital inflows (net of redemption requests for July 31, 2009) of approximately $100 million, and performance-related appreciation of approximately $700 million.

SUMMARY RESULTS OF THE OCH-ZIFF FUNDS SEGMENT

The Company conducts substantially all of its business through the Och-Ziff Funds segment, which is currently the Company’s only reportable segment. This segment provides management and advisory services to the Company’s hedge funds and separately managed accounts. For reconciliations of Economic Income of the Och-Ziff Funds segment to the respective GAAP net losses for the periods discussed above, please see Exhibits 3 through 6 of the financial tables that accompany this press release.

Economic Income Revenues

Economic Income Revenues for the 2009 second quarter were $85.0 million, a 42% decrease from 2008 second quarter Economic Income Revenues of $147.1 million. Management Fees were $84.5 million, 42% lower than second quarter 2008 Management Fees of $145.3 million.

 

5


Economic Income Revenues for the 2009 first half were $177.7 million, a 39% decrease from 2008 first half Economic Income Revenues of $293.6 million. Management Fees were $176.9 million, 39% lower than first half 2008 Management Fees of $290.3 million.

Economic Income Revenues were lower year-over-year for both periods as a result of lower Management Fees due to the decline in assets under management, which was driven by performance-related depreciation in the second half of 2008 and investor redemptions in the fourth quarter of 2008 and first quarter of 2009. Redemption requests received for June 30, 2009 had no impact on 2009 second quarter results as they reduced assets under management as of July 1, 2009 in accordance with the Company’s practices. The effect of these redemptions on Management Fees will be recognized in the Company’s 2009 third quarter results.

Compensation and Benefits

Compensation and Benefits expenses for the 2009 second quarter totaled $42.6 million, 74% higher than 2008 second quarter Compensation and Benefits expenses of $24.5 million. Compensation and Benefits expenses for the 2009 first half totaled $63.0 million, 31% higher than 2008 first half Compensation and Benefits expenses of $48.2 million.

The increase in Compensation and Benefits expense in both periods was due primarily to the $24.6 million expense recorded during the second quarter for the estimated, annual discretionary cash bonuses the Company anticipates paying its employees in the fourth quarter of 2009 (as discussed above). Partially offsetting this increase was the year-over-year decline in salaries and benefits expense due to lower headcount as a result of reduced assets under management. Additionally, guaranteed bonuses declined year-over-year due to a lower level of hiring activity as well as lower one-time, non-recurring bonus payments.

Non-Compensation Expenses

Non-compensation Expenses in the 2009 second quarter were $21.8 million, a 26% decrease from 2008 second quarter Non-compensation Expenses of $29.4 million. Non-compensation Expenses in the 2009 first half were $45.9 million, a 29% decrease from 2008 first half Non-compensation Expenses of $64.5 million.

The decrease in both periods was driven principally by lower professional services fees and lower business development costs, reflecting the effect of reduced business activity in light of prevailing market conditions, as well as expense reductions in line with lower assets under management. Also contributing to the decrease was lower interest expense on the Company’s variable rate borrowings due to the decline in LIBOR. The overall decline in Non-compensation Expenses in both periods was partially offset by higher occupancy expense related to the expansion of leased office space and higher insurance costs.

SUMMARY RESULTS OF THE COMPANY’S OTHER OPERATIONS

The Company’s Other Operations are comprised of its real estate business, which manages and provides advisory services to its real estate funds, and investments in new businesses established

 

6


to expand certain of the Company’s private investment platforms. The businesses within Other Operations are currently in early growth stages, and are not included in the results of the Och-Ziff Funds segment. Economic Income for Other Operations as discussed below is a supplemental non-GAAP measure.

Economic Income for the 2009 second quarter for the Company’s Other Operations was a net loss of $4.8 million, compared with net income of $0.1 million in the 2008 second quarter. Economic Income for the 2009 first half for the Company’s Other Operations was a net loss of $8.5 million, compared with a net loss of $3.4 million in the 2008 first half. The 2009 second quarter and first half net losses were primarily related to compensation costs associated with the Company’s Asia real estate business and a $0.8 million accrual established during the second quarter for the estimated annual discretionary cash bonuses the Company anticipates paying the employees in its U.S. real estate business in the fourth quarter of 2009 (as discussed above). The 2008 second quarter and first half results were primarily related to favorable results of the Company’s U.S. real estate business offset by net losses related to its share of the start-up costs associated with establishing its African joint venture. For reconciliations of Economic Income of the Company’s Other Operations to the respective GAAP net losses for the periods described above, please see Exhibits 3 through 6 of the financial tables that accompany this press release.

TOTAL COMPANY ECONOMIC INCOME

Total Company Economic Income for the 2009 second quarter was $15.8 million, an 83% decrease from 2008 second quarter Total Company Economic Income of $93.3 million. Total Company Economic Income for the 2009 first half was $60.3 million, a 66% decrease from 2008 first half Total Company Economic Income of $177.6 million. For reconciliations of Total Company Economic Income to (i) the Company’s GAAP net losses, and (ii) Distributable Earnings, please see Exhibits 3 through 8 of the financial tables that accompany this press release.

CAPITAL

As of June 30, 2009, the number of Class A Shares outstanding was 78,403,376. For purposes of calculating Distributable Earnings per Share, the Company assumes that all Group A Units and RSUs outstanding as of June 30, 2009 have been converted on a one-to-one basis into Class A Shares. For the second quarter and first half ended June 30, 2009, the total weighted-average Adjusted Class A Shares outstanding were 402,997,072 and 403,055,195, respectively.

DIVIDEND

The Board of Directors of Och-Ziff declared a 2009 second quarter dividend of $0.02 per Class A Share, to be paid on August 11, 2009 to holders of record at the close of business on July 1, 2009.

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the dividend will be treated as a partnership distribution. Based on the best information currently available, the Company estimates that when calculating withholding taxes, the entire amount of the 2009 second quarter dividend will be treated as U.S. source dividend income.

 

7


Non-U.S. holders of Class A Shares are generally subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30% (subject to reduction by applicable treaty or other exception) on their share of U.S. source dividends and certain other types of U.S. source income realized by the Company. With respect to interest, however, no withholding is generally required if proper certification (on an IRS Form W-8) of a beneficial owner’s foreign status has been filed with the withholding agent. In addition, non-U.S. holders must generally provide the withholding agent with a properly completed IRS Form W-8 to obtain any reduction in withholding.

Exhibit 7

OCH-ZIFF CAPITAL MANAGEMENT GROUP LLC

Description of Adjustments Made to Reconcile Economic Income to U.S. GAAP Net Loss

Funds Consolidation

Economic Income excludes the impacts of consolidated Och-Ziff funds, including the related eliminations.

Other Adjustments

(a) Economic Income presents management fees net of recurring placement and related service fees on assets under management, as management considers these fees a reduction in management fees, not an expense.

(b) Economic Income recognizes deferred cash compensation expense in the period in which it is awarded, as management determines the total amount of compensation based on the Company’s performance in the year of the award.

(c) Economic Income excludes equity-based compensation expense, as management does not consider these non-cash expenses when evaluating the performance of the Company.

(d) Economic Income excludes allocations to non-equity partner interests. Management reviewed the performance of the Company before it made any allocations to the Company’s non-equity founding partners for periods prior to the Reorganization. For these periods, allocations to the founding partners, other than Mr. Och, were treated as expenses for U.S. GAAP purposes. Following the Reorganization, only allocations related to earnings on previously deferred incentive income allocations to non-equity partner interests are incurred and these allocations are excluded from Economic Income.

(e) Economic Income excludes Reorganization expenses, which are non-cash expenses directly attributable to the reclassification of interests held by the founding partners and the Ziffs prior to the Reorganization as Och-Ziff Operating Group A Units.

(f) Economic Income excludes the profit sharing expense related to the Ziffs’ interest in the Company. Management reviewed the performance of the Company before it made any allocations to the Ziffs for periods prior to the Reorganization. Following the Reorganization, only profit sharing expense related to the allocation of earnings on previously deferred incentive income allocations to the Ziffs are incurred and these allocations are excluded from Economic Income.

(g) Economic Income excludes depreciation, changes in the tax receivable agreement liability, gain on early retirement of debt and income taxes, as management does not consider these items when evaluating the performance of the Company.

(h) Economic Income excludes the net earnings (losses) on the deferred income receivable from Och-Ziff funds and net earnings (losses) on investments in Och-Ziff funds, as these amounts primarily relate to earnings (losses) on amounts due to affiliates for deferred or reinvested incentive income previously allocated to the founding partners and the Ziffs, and earnings (losses) on amounts due to employees under deferred cash compensation arrangements.

(i) Economic Income excludes amounts allocated to the partners and the Ziffs on their interests in the Och-Ziff Operating Group, as management reviews the performance of the Company at the Och-Ziff Operating Group level. The Company conducts substantially all of its activities through the Och-Ziff Operating Group. Additionally, Economic Income excludes amounts allocated to investors in consolidated Och-Ziff funds, as Economic Income excludes the impacts of consolidated Och-Ziff funds.

Total net return for the OZ Master Fund (the “Fund”) represents a composite of the average return of the feeder funds that comprise the Fund. Returns are presented on a total return basis, net of all fees and expenses (except incentive income on certain unrealized private investments that could reduce returns on these investments at the time of realization), and include the reinvestment of all dividends and income. Performance includes realized and unrealized gains and losses attributable to certain private and initial public offering investments that are not allocated to all investors in the Fund. Investors that do not participate in such investments or that pay different fees may experience materially different returns. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

For the period from 1994 through 1997, performance represents the performance of Och-Ziff Capital Management, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership that was managed by Daniel Och following an investment strategy that is substantially similar to that of the Fund. In addition, during this period, performance was calculated by deducting Management Fees on a quarterly basis and Incentive Income on a monthly basis. Beginning January 1998, performance has been calculated by deducting both Management Fees and Incentive Income on a monthly basis from the composite returns of the Fund.

Readers should not assume that there is any material overlap between those securities in the portfolio of the Fund and those that comprise the S&P 500 Index. It is not possible to invest directly in the S&P 500 Index. Returns of the S&P 500 Index have not been reduced by fees and expenses associated with investing in securities and include the reinvestment of dividends. The S&P 500 Index is an equity index owned and maintained by Standard & Poor’s, a division of McGraw-Hill, whose value is calculated as the free float-weighted average of the share prices of 500 large-cap corporations listed on the NYSE and Nasdaq. The comparison of S&P 500 Index performance relative to the Fund’s performance during months in which the S&P 500 Index declined is for the limited purpose of illustrating how the Fund has performed during periods of declines in the broad equity market. It should not be considered an indication of how the Fund will perform relative to the S&P 500 Index in the future.

Please note that the Fund’s investment objective is not to beat the S&P 500 Index. Furthermore, the Fund’s performance has frequently trailed that of the S&P 500 Index in periods of positive performance.

(1) Fund performance reflects a composite of the return for the feeder funds comprising each of the Company’s most significant master funds and is presented on a total return basis, net of all fees and expenses of the relevant fund (except incentive income on certain unrealized private investments that could reduce returns on these investments at the time of realization), and includes the reinvestment of all dividends and income. Performance includes realized and unrealized gains and losses attributable to certain private and initial public offering investments that are not allocated to all investors in the funds.
