Management Commentary

“As we highlighted in our preliminary release last month, our Q4 results were strong across the board, resulting in a record quarter for B. Riley Financial,” said company chairman and CEO, Bryant Riley. “This performance was driven by continued strength in our retail asset disposition business, substantial growth in our Capital Markets segment, along with meaningful cash flow contribution from United Online.

 

“Overall, our results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2016 demonstrate the earnings power of our diversified business model. We have structured this model to provide us with multiple sources of recurring revenue and cash flow, as well as opportunities to generate attractive returns, especially from our retail liquidation and investment banking businesses. In addition, because we have predictable businesses in our platform, we’re often able to pay a regular quarterly dividend, as well as a variable dividend based on the performance of our more episodic businesses.

 

“From an operational standpoint, 2016 marked a pivotal year in our development of a stronger, more diversified financial services platform. This was highlighted by several strategic initiatives and corporate actions, including the launch of a corporate restructuring practice and our acquisition of United Online.

 

“This year, we took a significant step to enhance our business when we announced our agreement to acquire FBR & Co. When completed, this transaction will bring together FBR’s and B. Riley’s investment banking, sales and trading and research businesses, creating a powerful combination for our collective client base, and solidifying us into a leader in business services, financial advisory and investment banking.”

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain of the information set forth herein, including adjusted EBITDA and adjusted Net Income, may be considered non-GAAP financial measures. B. Riley Financial, Inc. believes this information is useful to investors because it provides a basis for measuring the company’s available capital resources, the operating performance of its business and its cash flow, excluding net interest expense, provisions for income taxes, depreciation, amortization, transaction expenses and stock-based compensation that would normally be included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). In addition, the company’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures along with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in evaluating the company’s operating performance, capital resources and cash flow. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP, and non-financial measures as reported by the company may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies. The non-GAAP measures are described above and are reconciled to the corresponding GAAP measure in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements portion of this release under the headings “Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation" and “Adjusted Net Income Reconciliation.”
