Cleveland, Ohio, August 7, 2018 — Victory Capital Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: VCTR) (“Victory Capital” or the “Company”) today reported its results for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

 

“I am pleased to report that Victory Capital delivered strong financial performance in the second quarter,” said David Brown, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Investment results remained strong with 83% of our AUM outperforming its respective benchmarks over the trailing one-year period. AUM increased during the quarter, and we saw a measurable improvement in our net flows relative to last quarter. We also remained committed to the prudent execution of our capital management plan while achieving strong earnings growth and meaningful margin expansion.

 

“Total AUM grew to $62.3 billion as of June 30, 2018, which is the result of the improving flow picture and positive market action. Gross flows for the quarter were strong at $3.5 billion, while overall net flows were relatively flat at ($102) million. We continued to experience somewhat elevated levels of client rebalancing activity. However, that was primarily offset by positive net flows of $524 million into our focus asset classes. Our ‘won-but-not-funded’ pipeline is healthy as are our overall sales prospects.

 

“Sales momentum in our VictoryShares ETFs remained strong. Net flows into our ETFs were $200 million for the quarter and $652 million for the first six months of 2018. Our ETFs have experienced positive net flows every quarter — and in 37 of the 38 months — since we entered the ETF business via the CEMP acquisition in April 2015. Year over year as of June 30, 2018, our ETF market share has increased by 55% according to Morningstar.

 

“Looking ahead, we remain committed to creating long-term value for our shareholders through the disciplined execution of our corporate vision, which combines strategic acquisitions with organic growth. We believe our next generation, integrated multi-boutique business model is attractive to investment firms looking for a strategic partner, and we have an active pipeline of potential M&A opportunities. Our focus is on identifying and acquiring the ‘growers of the future,’ unique, innovative products that solve issues for client portfolios. As in the past, serving the needs of our clients remains our top priority.”

Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

Victory Capital uses non-GAAP financial measures referred to as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income to measure the operating profitability of the business.  These measures eliminate the impact of one-time acquisition, restructuring and integration costs and demonstrate the ongoing operating earnings metrics of the business. The Company has included these non-GAAP measures to provide investors with the same financial metrics used by management to assess the operating performance of the Company.

 

Adjusted EBITDA

 

Adjustments made to GAAP Net Income to calculate Adjusted EBITDA are:

 

·     Adding back GAAP income tax;

·     Adding back interest paid on debt and other financing costs net of interest income;

·     Adding back depreciation on property and equipment;

·     Adding back other business taxes;

·     Adding back GAAP amortization of acquisition-related intangibles;

·     Adding back the expense associated with stock-based compensation associated with equity issued from pools that were created in connection with the management-led buyout with Crestview GP from KeyCorp, the Munder Acquisition and the RS Acquisition and as a result of any equity grants related to the IPO;

·     Adding back direct incremental costs of acquisitions and the IPO, including expenses associated with third-party advisors, proxy solicitations of mutual fund shareholders for transaction consents, vendor contract early termination costs, impairment of receivables recorded in connection with an acquisition and severance, retention and transaction incentive compensation;

·     Adding back debt issuance costs;

·     Adding back pre-IPO governance expenses paid to the Company’s private equity partners that terminated as of the completion of the IPO; and

·     Adjusting for earnings/losses on equity method investments.

 

Adjusted Net Income

 

Adjustments made to GAAP Net Income to calculate Adjusted Net Income are:

 

·     Adding back other business taxes;

·     Adding back GAAP amortization of acquisition-related intangibles;

·     Adding back the expense associated with stock-based compensation associated with equity issued from pools that were created in connection with the management-led buyout with Crestview GP from KeyCorp, the Munder Acquisition and the RS Acquisition and as a result of any equity grants related to the IPO;

·     Adding back direct incremental costs of acquisitions and the IPO, including expenses associated with third-party advisors, proxy solicitations of mutual fund shareholders for transaction consents, vendor contract early termination costs, impairment of receivables recorded in connection with an acquisition and severance, retention and transaction incentive compensation;

·     Adding back debt issuance costs;

·     Adding back pre-IPO governance expenses paid to the Company’s private equity partners that terminated as of the completion of the IPO; and

·     Subtracting an estimate of income tax expense on the adjustments.

Tax Benefit of Goodwill and Acquired Intangibles

 

Due to Victory Capital’s acquisitive nature, tax deductions allowed on acquired intangible assets and goodwill provide it with additional significant supplemental economic benefit.  The tax benefit of goodwill and intangibles represents the tax benefits associated with deductions allowed for intangibles and goodwill generated from prior acquisitions in which the Company received a stepup in basis for tax purposes. Acquired intangible assets and goodwill may be amortized for tax purposes, generally over a 15-year period. The tax benefit from amortization on these assets is included to show the full economic benefit of deductions for all acquired intangibles with a stepup in tax basis.
