Piper Jaffray Companies Announces 2011 Fourth Quarter and Full-Year Results

MINNEAPOLIS–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Piper Jaffray Companies (NYSE: PJC – News) today announced non-GAAP net income of $2.1 million(1), or $0.11(1) per diluted common share, for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2011. On a GAAP basis, the net loss was $116.4 million, or $7.38 per diluted common share. The non-GAAP figures exclude the $118.4 million after-tax goodwill impairment charge that the firm disclosed on Jan. 10. For the fourth quarter of 2010, net income was $9.4 million, or $0.49 per diluted common share. For the third quarter of 2011, results were a net loss of $3.6 million, or $0.23 per diluted common share.
Net revenues for the fourth quarter of 2011 were $99.2 million, compared to a record of $176.4 million in the year-ago period, and $98.2 million for the third quarter of 2011.
“It was a difficult second half to 2011, and our fourth quarter results were similar to the third quarter, with modest profitability(1),” said Andrew S. Duff, chairman and chief executive officer. “Asset management and investment banking revenues improved compared to the third quarter, and M&A revenues, while down, were solid. Institutional brokerage revenues were lower.”
Duff added “We navigated reasonably well against a challenging and volatile operating environment in 2011, achieving positive pre-tax earnings in each quarter during the year, on a non-GAAP basis(1). We remain focused on our key objective to increase the proportion of higher-margin, higher-return businesses—public finance, M&A and asset management— in order to improve our return on equity. We remain committed to our strategy to accomplish this goal and we executed against it in 2011: 1) made solid progress in building a national public finance franchise; 2) selectively added M&A talent and transitioned European investment banking operations to an M&A-only model; and 3) maintained competitive performance in key investment strategies, and grew mutual fund and MLP assets. As we head into 2012, we are well-positioned to serve our clients and compete in the marketplace.”
Fourth Quarter
Consolidated Expenses
For the fourth quarter of 2011, compensation and benefits expenses were $63.9 million, down 40 percent compared to $106.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2010. The decrease was primarily due to lower performance. Compensation and benefits expenses decreased 2 percent compared to the third quarter of 2011.
For the fourth quarter of 2011, compensation and benefits expenses as a percentage of net revenues were 64.4 percent, compared to 60.3 percent for the fourth quarter of 2010. The increase was primarily due to the impact of fixed components of compensation costs on a reduced revenue base. The compensation ratio declined from 66.5 percent in the third quarter of 2011, mainly due to lower variable compensation.
On a non-GAAP basis, non-compensation expenses were $33.7(2) million for the fourth quarter, down 28 percent compared to the fourth quarter of 2010. On a GAAP basis, non-compensation expenses were $154.0 million. The decrease on a non-GAAP basis was attributable to a $9.5 million restructuring charge recorded in the year-ago period and actions implemented during 2011 to reduce costs given the current operating environment. Non-GAAP, non-compensation expenses increased 3 percent compared to the third quarter of 2011.
Fourth Quarter
Business Segment Results
The firm has two reportable business segments: Capital Markets and Asset Management. Consolidated net revenues and expenses are fully allocated to these two segments.
Capital Markets
For the fourth quarter, Capital Markets recorded a non-GAAP, pre-tax operating loss of $3.1 million(3), compared to pre-tax operating income of $16.1 million in the year-ago period and a pre-tax operating loss of $0.4 million in the third quarter of 2011. On a GAAP basis, this segment generated a pre-tax operating loss of $123.4 million.
Net revenues were $80.4 million, down 47 percent compared to the year-ago period, which was very strong across all products. Revenues declined 5 percent compared to the sequential third quarter, with stronger investment banking results more than offset by lower institutional brokerage performance.
  • Equity financing revenues of $17.0 million decreased 60 percent compared to the very strong fourth quarter of 2010. Industry-wide equity market volatility and uncertainty curtailed capital raising, particularly IPOs, in the U.S. and in Hong Kong. Revenues increased 146 percent compared to the low results in the third quarter of 2011, primarily driven by higher revenues in the U.S. and, to a lesser extent, Hong Kong.
  • Fixed income financing revenues were $15.2 million, down 24 percent compared to the robust fourth quarter of 2010. Revenues increased 37 percent compared to the third quarter of 2011, driven by an increase in completed public finance transactions with higher average revenue per transaction.
  • Advisory services revenues were $19.8 million, down 43 percent compared to the very strong year-ago period, and down 27 percent compared to the third quarter of 2011. The declines were due to a smaller transaction size and a lower transaction fee, on average.
  • Equity institutional brokerage revenues were $21.9 million, down 21 percent and 7 percent, compared to the fourth quarter of 2010 and the third quarter of 2011, respectively. The declines were primarily due to lower client activity in the U.S. and Hong Kong.
  • Fixed income institutional brokerage revenues were $9.7 million, down 57 percent and 33 percent, compared to the fourth quarter of 2010 and the third quarter of 2011, respectively. The declines were mainly due to lower results in taxable and municipal products, and lower strategic trading results.
  • Non-GAAP operating expenses for the quarter were $83.4(4) million, down 38 percent compared to the fourth quarter of 2010, resulting from both significantly lower compensation and non-compensation expenses. On a GAAP basis with the goodwill impairment charge, operating expenses were $203.7 million. Operating expenses on a non-GAAP basis decreased 2 percent compared to the third quarter 2011, due to lower compensation expenses. Non-GAAP segment pre-tax operating margin was a negative 3.8(3) percent, compared to 10.6 percent in the year-ago quarter and a negative 0.4 percent in the third quarter of 2011.
The following is a recap of completed deal information for the fourth quarter of 2011:
  • 12 equity financings raising a total of $2.8 billion of capital.
  • 144 tax-exempt issues with a total par value of $2.2 billion.
  • 13 merger and acquisition transactions with an aggregate enterprise value of $1.4 billion. (The number of deals and the enterprise value include disclosed and undisclosed transactions.)
Asset Management
For the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2011, asset management generated pre-tax operating income of $4.7 million, down 34 percent compared to the fourth quarter of 2010 and up from $0.7 million in the third quarter of 2011. Net revenues were $18.8 million, down 26 percent compared to the year-ago period, mainly due to lower performance fees. Net revenues rose 37 percent compared to the third quarter of 2011, mainly due to improved management fees from higher assets under management, and improved performance in the firm’s new Municipal Opportunities Fund.
  • Operating expenses for the quarter were $14.1 million, including $2.1 million of intangible amortization expense, down 22 percent compared to the fourth quarter of 2010. The decrease was mainly attributable to lower compensation expenses. Operating expenses increased 8 percent compared to the third quarter of 2011. Segment pre-tax operating margin was 25.0 percent, compared to 28.1 percent in the year-ago period. The decline was mainly due to essentially the same level of non-compensation expenses over a lower revenue base, partially offset by a lower compensation ratio. The segment pre-tax operating margin was 4.9 percent in the third quarter of 2011. The significant improvement compared to the sequential third quarter resulted from higher revenues.
  • Assets under management (AUM) were $12.2 billion compared to $12.3 billion in the year-ago period and $11.2 billion in the third quarter of 2011. The improvement compared to the sequential third quarter was mainly due to improved equity market appreciation.
Other Matters
In the fourth quarter of 2011, $6.0 million, or 293,829 shares, of the firm’s common stock was repurchased pursuant to a share repurchase authorization. The average price per share repurchased was $20.40. The firm has $51.4 million remaining on the share repurchase authorization which expires on Sept. 30, 2012.
Full-Year 2011
For the year ended Dec. 31, 2011, non-GAAP net income was $16.4(1) million, or $0.86(1) per diluted common share. On a GAAP basis, results were a net loss of $102.0 million, or $6.51 per diluted common share. For 2010, net income was $24.4 million, or $1.23 per diluted common share. For 2011, net revenues were $458.1 million, down 14 percent compared to the prior year, resulting primarily from lower investment banking and institutional brokerage revenues.
Full-Year 2011
Consolidated Expenses
For 2011, compensation and benefits expenses were $288.1 million, down 9 percent compared to $315.2 million in 2010. The decrease was primarily driven by lower variable compensation due to lower performance. Compensation and benefits expenses as a percentage of net revenues were 62.9 percent, compared to 59.5 percent for 2010. The higher compensation ratio was mainly driven by the impact of fixed compensation costs on a reduced revenue base.
For 2011, non-compensation expenses were $139.4(2) million on a non-GAAP basis. On a GAAP basis, non-compensation expenses were $259.7 million. This amount compared to $157.6 million in 2010, which included $10.9 million of restructuring charges, mainly due to the re-organization of the firm’s European operations. The additional decrease in expenses was driven by the lower cost of the streamlined European operations and other cost-saving initiatives.
Full-Year 2011
Business Segment Results
Capital Markets
Capital Markets generated non-GAAP, pre-tax operating income of $16.0(3) million compared to $41.2 million in 2010. On a GAAP basis, this segment generated a pre-tax operating loss of $104.3 million. Net revenues were $386.9 million, down 16 percent compared to 2010, mainly attributable to macroeconomic issues and volatility, which negatively impacted capital raising — particularly in Asia — and institutional brokerage.
Non-GAAP operating expenses for the year were $370.9(4) million, down 12 percent compared to 2010. On a GAAP basis with the goodwill impairment charge, operating expenses for the year were $491.2 million. The decline on a non-GAAP basis was driven by both lower compensation and non-compensation expenses. For the year, segment pre-tax operating margin was 4.1(3) percent, on a non-GAAP basis, and compared to 8.9 percent in 2010.
The following is a recap of completed deal information for 2011:
  • 64 equity financings raising a total of $13.0 billion of capital.
  • 520 tax-exempt issues with a total par value of $6.9 billion.
  • 43 merger and acquisition transactions with an aggregate enterprise value of $5.6 billion. (The number of deals and the enterprise value include disclosed and undisclosed transactions.)
Asset Management
For 2011, asset management generated pre-tax operating income of $14.6 million, down 10 percent compared to 2010. Net revenues were $71.2 million, up 6 percent compared to 2010. Management fees increased 16 percent, partially offset by lower performance fees.
Operating expenses for the year were $56.6 million, up 11 percent compared to 2010, attributable to both higher compensation and non-compensation expenses. For the year, segment pre-tax operating margin was 20.5 percent compared to 24.0 percent in 2010. The lower margin was mainly driven by lower performance fees for the year.
Other Matters
For the full year, $26.5 million, or 803,500 shares, of the firm’s common stock was acquired, 509,671 of which was related to employee tax obligations on vesting of equity awards.

FOOTNOTES
    
The press release includes the use of non-GAAP financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and that exclude the effects of a goodwill impairment charge recognized in the fourth quarter of 2011. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures have been used in this press release because management believes they are useful to investors by providing greater transparency to Piper Jaffray’s operating performance.

(5)Adjusted common shareholders’ equity
 
Adjusted common shareholders’ equity equals total common shareholders’ equity, including goodwill associated with acquisitions, less goodwill resulting from the 1998 acquisition of our predecessor company, Piper Jaffray Companies Inc., by U.S. Bancorp. Annualized return on average adjusted common shareholders’ equity is computed by dividing annualized net income by average monthly adjusted common shareholders’ equity. Management believes that annualized return on adjusted common shareholders’ equity is a meaningful measure of performance because it reflects equity deployed in our businesses after our spin off from U.S. Bancorp on December 31, 2003. The following table sets forth a reconciliation of common shareholders’ equity to adjusted common shareholders’ equity. Common shareholders’ equity is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to adjusted common shareholders’ equity.

(7)Tangible common shareholders’ equity
 
Tangible shareholders’ equity equals total shareholders’ equity less all goodwill and identifiable intangible assets. Tangible book value per share is computed by dividing tangible shareholders’ equity by common shares outstanding. Management believes that tangible book value per share is a more meaningful measure of our book value per share. Shareholders’ equity is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to tangible shareholders’ equity. The following is a reconciliation of shareholders’ equity to tangible shareholders’ equity:
