Los Angeles, CA — October 29, 2013 — CBRE Group, Inc. (NYSE:CBG) today reported strong growth in revenue and earnings for the third quarter ended September 30, 2013.

 

Third-Quarter 2013 Results

 

·                  Revenue for the quarter totaled $1.73 billion, an increase of 11% from $1.56 billion in the third quarter of 2012.

 

·                  Excluding selected charges1, net income2 increased 19% to $99.7 million from $83.6 million in the third quarter of 2012, and earnings per diluted share increased to $0.30 from $0.26 in the prior-year period. For the third quarter, selected charges (net of income taxes) totaled $5.3 million versus $43.9 million for the same period in 2012.

 

·                  On a U.S. GAAP basis, net income totaled $94.4 million, compared with $39.7 million for the third quarter of 2012.  GAAP earnings per diluted share totaled $0.28, compared with $0.12 in last year’s third quarter.

Management Commentary

 

“During the third quarter, CBRE benefited significantly from our well-balanced business and leading position across markets and service lines around the world,” said Bob Sulentic, president and chief executive officer of CBRE. “We once again delivered strong growth on the top- and bottom-lines, while continuing to make measured, but very important strategic investments in our people and technology that are strengthening our company and positioning us for continued success.

 

 

“While property sales continued to be our fastest-growing service line — reflecting CBRE’s leading position in key investment markets worldwide — we were also pleased to see a quicker pace of growth in our leasing business and continued double-digit increases in occupier outsourcing. Our performance was also bolstered by higher contributions from our investment management business, where we are capitalizing on the favorable sales environment to harvest gains in the property portfolio on behalf of our investor clients.”

 

Global revenue growth of 11% was paced by CBRE’s Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) operations.  Revenue in this region surged 25% with all major service lines producing strong, double-digit growth.  The Americas, CBRE’s largest business segment, posted double-digit revenue growth (11%) for the fourth consecutive quarter, with notable strength in property sales and occupier outsourcing as well as improved leasing performance. Revenue growth in Asia Pacific was strong in local currencies but this strength was diminished when translated into U.S. dollars. In local currency, Asia Pacific revenue rose by a healthy 13%, but only 1% in U.S. dollars.

 

Among global business lines, property sales again set the pace for growth with a revenue increase of 29%.  Sales revenue was up strongly across all regions, led by a 50% increase in EMEA. At the country level, sales revenue was particularly strong in Germany, Japan, the U.K. and the U.S. During the third quarter, CBRE once again captured the highest market share for investment sales in both the U.S and the U.K.

 

Leasing revenue growth accelerated to 11% — the strongest performance in that business line since the third quarter of 2011.  Strong growth was evident in EMEA (up 20%) and the Americas (up 12%). In the largest lease transaction in the U.K. this year, CBRE advised QNB & Sellar Group in its 430,000 square foot lease with News UK, a subsidiary of News Corp, which will relocate its headquarters to The Place, a new office building under construction in central London.

 

CBRE’s occupier outsourcing business, Global Corporate Services (GCS), remained a stellar performer. This business, which comprises facilities management, project management, transaction management and strategic consulting, saw revenue grow briskly, rising 14% on a global basis and 18% in the Americas. Overall property, facilities and project management revenue rose 9%.

 

CBRE signed a total of 54 GCS contracts during the quarter, including 20 with new customers. Among these new customers are Heinz, Tesla Motors and EMG, a petroleum and petrochemical company based in Japan.  In addition, earlier this month, CBRE signed one of its largest ever outsourcing engagements with JP Morgan Chase. CBRE will provide the bank with facilities management and brokerage services in the U.S., Canada and Latin America as well as project management services in the U.S. and Asia Pacific.

 

Revenue improved 11% in the Company’s Global Investment Management business, where CBRE manages real estate investment funds and other investment products for institutional investors.  The higher revenue during the quarter resulted from outsized carried interest revenue, which reflects incremental revenue earned by CBRE when assets in the investment portfolio are sold at values that exceed return thresholds.  The carried interest revenue also had an outsized bottom-line impact on this business, with normalized EBITDA rising 52% from a year ago.

Appraisal and valuation revenue rose 7%, led by EMEA.  However, commercial mortgage brokerage revenue fell 10%.  While CBRE’s overall loan origination remained highly active — with U.S. loan volume up 16% during the quarter — this business line was adversely affected by the U.S. Government-Sponsored Enterprises’ (GSEs) effort to scale back their lending activity, as mandated by their regulators.  The mandated scale-back in these loans put significant pressure on revenue and profits for the commercial mortgage brokerage business.

 

During the third quarter, CBRE completed two acquisitions that complement its service offering: Fameco, a highly regarded retail specialist serving parts of Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware; and an acquisition of a majority interest in Basale Sverige AB, a property management firm in Sweden.

 

Third-Quarter 2013 Segment Results

 

Americas Region (U.S., Canada and Latin America)

 

·                  Revenue rose 11% to $1.1 billion, compared with $996.4 million for the third quarter of 2012.

·                  EBITDA totaled $132.2 million, up 3% from $128.7 million in last year’s third quarter.

·                  Operating income totaled $96.4 million, compared with $105.4 million for the prior-year third quarter.

·                  Both EBITDA and operating income were affected by the aforementioned reduction in mortgage servicing work for the GSEs as well as increased investments in people and technology designed to enhance the Company’s client-service offering and support future growth.

 

EMEA Region (primarily Europe)

 

·                  Revenue rose 25% to $285.5 million, compared with $228.7 million for the third quarter of 2012.  The increase was broad based, as every major business line posted double-digit revenue growth.  Notable strength was evident in France, Germany, Spain and the U.K.

·                  EBITDA, before selected charges, was $17.7 million, an increase of 146% from $7.2 million in the prior-year third quarter. Including selected charges, EBITDA in the prior-year period was a loss of $8.1 million. There were no adjustments for selected charges in the current quarter in this segment.

·                  Operating income totaled $12.6 million compared with an operating loss of $31.7 million for the same period in 2012.

·                  Prior-period results were impacted by an approximately $20.0 million non-cash write-off of a trade name in the U.K. and cost containment expenses of $15.3 million, for a total of $35.3 million in charges.  The non-amortizable intangible asset impairment is included in the calculation of operating loss but not in EBITDA.

 

Asia Pacific Region (Asia, Australia and New Zealand)

 

·                  Revenue was $202.7 million, an increase of 1% from $199.9 million for the third quarter of 2012.  In local currency, revenue rose by a healthy 13%. Performance improved in several countries, particularly Australia, India and Japan, but was masked by the negative effect of foreign currency movement.

·                  EBITDA totaled $13.1 million, compared with $16.4 million for last year’s third quarter.

·                  Operating income totaled $10.3 million, compared with $13.9 million for the third quarter of 2012.

 

3

 

·                  Headcount additions in certain markets to drive future growth, a concentration of property sales commissions among higher producing professionals and foreign currency movement contributed to lower operating income and EBITDA.

 

Global Investment Management (investment management operations in the U.S., Europe and Asia)

 

·                  Revenue rose 11% to $127.3 million from $114.3 million in the third quarter of 2012. The increase was driven by the aforementioned carried-interest revenue, which totaled $29.9 million in the current quarter.

·                  Excluding selected charges, EBITDA increased 52% to $56.2 million from $36.9 million in the prior-year third quarter.  EBITDA (including selected charges) rose 144% to $55.4 million compared with $22.7 million in the third quarter of 2012.

·                  Operating income totaled $42.5 million, up 251% from $12.1 million for the third quarter of 2012.  The prior-period operating income was impacted by $14.2 million of expenses related to the acquisition of the ING REIM businesses.

·                  Assets under management (AUM) totaled $87.6 billion at the end of the third quarter, a 5% decrease from year-end 2012. The decrease primarily reflects the harvesting of gains in the direct investment portfolio in order to capitalize on the favorable sales environment. Property dispositions reduced AUM by $7.4 billion, partly offset by $3.0 billion of acquisitions.

 

Development Services (real estate development and investment activities primarily in the U.S.)

 

·                  Revenue totaled $12.6 million compared with $17.8 million for the third quarter of 2012.  The revenue decline was attributable to lower rental revenue resulting from property dispositions.

·                  Operating loss totaled $3.7 million compared with operating income of $3.9 million for the same period in 2012.

·                  EBITDA improved to $6.0 million, compared with $3.8 million reported in the prior-year period. The increase was largely driven by higher overall gains on the sale of properties (reflected primarily in equity income from unconsolidated subsidiaries) partially offset by higher incentive compensation. Equity income from unconsolidated subsidiaries is included in the calculation of EBITDA, but not in operating income (loss).

·                  Development projects in process totaled $5.2 billion, up 24% from year-end 2012, and the inventory of pipeline deals totaled $1.6 billion, down 22% from year-end 2012.

 

Nine-Month Results

 

·                  Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 totaled $4.95 billion, an increase of 10% from $4.51 billion in the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

 

·                  Excluding selected charges, net income increased 16% to $253.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from $217.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2012, and earnings per diluted share increased to $0.76 from $0.67 for the prior-year period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, selected charges (net of income taxes) totaled $51.1 million. For the same period in 2012, selected charges (net of income taxes) totaled $74.9 million.

 

·                  On a U.S. GAAP basis, net income was $201.9 million, or $0.61 per diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, up 42% and 39%, respectively, from $142.6 million, or $0.44 per diluted share for the same period of 2012.  Costs associated with the Company’s corporate debt refinancing reduced GAAP earnings per diluted share by $0.10 for the first nine months of 2013.

·                  Excluding selected charges, EBITDA increased 11% to $629.6 million in the current nine-month period from $566.8 million in the first nine months of 2012. EBITDA (including selected charges) rose 21% to $624.6 million for the first nine months of 2013, from $515.9 million for the same period a year earlier.

 

Business Outlook

 

“All in all, we are very pleased with our performance through the first nine months of the year. Our strong growth reflects the ability of our people to collaborate effectively and leverage our brand, service offering and geographic footprint to create solutions for our clients,” Mr. Sulentic said. “We are firmly committed to driving continued margin expansion while making the investments in people and technology that are vital to sustaining our long-term growth and delivering the best service to our clients.”

 

CBRE continues to expect to achieve full-year earnings per share, as adjusted, of between $1.40 and $1.45.

1 Selected charges included the write-off of financing costs, amortization expense related to incentive fees and customer relationships acquired in the ING REIM and Trammell Crow Company (TCC) acquisitions, certain carried interest incentive compensation expense, integration and other costs related to acquisitions, cost containment expenses and the write-down of a non-amortizable intangible asset.  For the impact of selected charges on specific periods, see the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this press release.

 

2 A reconciliation of net income attributable to CBRE Group, Inc. to net income attributable to CBRE Group, Inc., as adjusted for selected charges, is provided in the section of this press release entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

 

3 EBITDA represents earnings before net interest expense, write-off of financing costs, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, while amounts shown for EBITDA, as adjusted (or normalized EBITDA), remove the impact of certain cash and non-cash charges related to acquisitions, cost containment and asset impairments, as well as certain carried interest incentive compensation expense.  Our management believes that both of these measures are useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry because the calculations of EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, generally eliminate the effects of financing and income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending and acquisitions, which would include impairment charges of goodwill and intangibles created from acquisitions. Such items may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance.  As a result, our management uses these measures to evaluate operating performance and for other discretionary purposes, including as a significant component when measuring our operating performance under our employee incentive programs. Additionally, we believe EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, are useful to investors to assist them in getting a more complete picture of our results from operations.

 

However, EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, are not recognized measurements under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and when analyzing our operating performance, readers should use EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, in addition to, and not as an alternative for, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Furthermore, EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, are not intended to be measures of free cash flow for our management’s discretionary use, as they do not consider certain cash requirements such as tax and debt service payments. The amounts shown for EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted, also differ from the amounts calculated under similarly titled definitions in our debt instruments, which are further adjusted to reflect certain other cash and non-cash charges and are used to determine compliance with financial covenants and our ability to engage in certain activities, such as incurring additional debt and making certain restricted payments.

 

For a reconciliation of EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted to net income attributable to CBRE Group, Inc., the most comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, see the section of this press release titled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
