Consolidated revenues for the fourth quarter grew 5% on a local currency basis, with all service lines contributing similarly to growth. Consolidated internal revenues measured in local currencies declined 2% (note 3), impacted by slight quarterly reductions in (i) Sales and Lease Brokerage in the Americas as well as (ii) Outsourcing & Advisory and Sales Brokerage in EMEA.

For the year ended December 31, 2016, consolidated revenues grew 13% on a local currency basis, led by 16% growth in Outsourcing & Advisory from significant new contract wins in project management and workplace solutions, as well as recently completed acquisitions. Internal revenue growth in local currencies was 4%, with the balance from acquisitions completed during the past year.

Segmented Fourth Quarter Results
The Americas region’s revenues totalled $291.3 million for the fourth quarter compared to $276.4 million in the prior year quarter, which represented a 5% increase on a local currency basis. Internal revenue was down 3% compared to a very strong fourth quarter in 2015, more than offset by 8% growth from acquisitions. Internal growth for the quarter was impacted by a slight decrease in Sales and Lease Brokerage. Adjusted EBITDA was $34.1 million, versus $35.2 million the prior year quarter, and was impacted by revenue mix, due to the decline in higher margin Sales and Lease Brokerage. GAAP operating earnings were $29.4 million, relative to $29.8 million in the prior year quarter.

EMEA region revenues totalled $152.2 million for the fourth quarter compared to $151.7 million in the prior year quarter, which equated to a 7% increase on a local currency basis. Internal revenue was down 4%, more than offset by 11% growth from acquisitions. Internal growth was impacted by reductions in Outsourcing & Advisory activity in the region and Sales Brokerage in the UK, compared to record results in the fourth quarter of 2015. Adjusted EBITDA was $34.9 million, up 37% from $25.5 million reported in the prior year quarter as a result of a change in revenue mix toward Sales and Lease Brokerage in continental European markets, as well as the favourable impact of recent acquisitions. GAAP operating earnings were $28.8 million, up from $20.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2015.

Asia Pacific region revenues totalled $132.2 million for the fourth quarter compared to $127.9 million in the prior year quarter, which represented a 2% increase on a local currency basis, entirely from internal growth. Adjusted EBITDA was $24.5 million versus $21.1 million due to operational improvements relative to the prior year period. GAAP operating earnings were $22.9 million, up from $19.1 million in the prior year quarter.

Global corporate costs were $3.1 million in the fourth quarter, relative to $2.8 million in the prior year period. The GAAP operating loss was $5.0 million, relative to $4.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2015.

Segmented Full Year Results
The Americas region’s revenues totalled $1.02 billion for the full year compared to $889.7 million in the prior year, which equated to a 16% increase on a local currency basis. Revenue growth was comprised of 3% internal growth and 13% from acquisitions. Internal growth for the year was driven by strong Outsourcing & Advisory activity. Adjusted EBITDA was $106.7 million, up 20% from the prior year as a result of operating leverage and the favourable impact of acquisitions. GAAP operating earnings were $85.3 million, up 23% versus $69.2 million in 2015.

EMEA region revenues totalled $474.9 million for the year compared to $446.1 million in the prior year, which equated to a 11% increase on a local currency basis. Revenue growth was comprised of 3% internal growth and 8% from acquisitions. Internal growth was driven by solid growth in Outsourcing & Advisory and Lease Brokerage. Adjusted EBITDA was $55.9 million, versus $56.6 million in the prior year, and was impacted by a decline in higher-margin Sales Brokerage activity in the UK in the second half of the year in the wake of the June 2016 “Brexit” referendum. GAAP operating earnings were $34.3 million, relative to $38.8 million in 2015 with the decline attributable to incremental depreciation and amortization expense related to recent business acquisitions.

Asia Pacific region revenues totalled $399.4 million for the year compared to $385.1 million in the prior year, which equated to a 5% increase on a local currency basis, entirely from internal growth, with solid contributions from all three service lines. Adjusted EBITDA was $51.4 million, up from $47.8 million in the prior year, an increase of 8%. GAAP operating earnings were $45.6 million, up 11% from $41.1 million in the prior year.

Global corporate costs were $11.0 million in the year, down from $11.8 million in the prior year, and were impacted by lower executive compensation accruals relative to the prior year. The GAAP operating loss for the year was $19.0 million versus $68.7 million in 2015, with the 2015 result impacted by $49.5 million of Spin-off related costs.

Notes

1. Reconciliation of net earnings from continuing operations to adjusted EBITDA:

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net earnings from continuing operations, adjusted to exclude: (i) income tax; (ii) other expense (income); (iii) interest expense; (iv) depreciation and amortization; (v) acquisition-related items; (vi) Spin-off related costs; (vii) restructuring costs and (viii) stock-based compensation expense. We use adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our own operating performance and our ability to service debt, as well as an integral part of our planning and reporting systems. Additionally, we use this measure in conjunction with discounted cash flow models to determine the Company’s overall enterprise valuation and to evaluate acquisition targets. We present adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure because we believe such measure is useful to investors as a reasonable indicator of operating performance because of the low capital intensity of the Company’s service operations. We believe this measure is a financial metric used by many investors to compare companies, especially in the services industry. This measure is not a recognized measure of financial performance under GAAP in the United States, and should not be considered as a substitute for operating earnings, net earnings from continuing operations or cash flow from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our method of calculating adjusted EBITDA may differ from other issuers and accordingly, this measure may not be comparable to measures used by other issuers. A reconciliation of net earnings (loss) from continuing operations to adjusted EBITDA appears below.

2. Reconciliation of net earnings from continuing operations and diluted net earnings per common share from continuing operations to adjusted net earnings and adjusted EPS:

Adjusted EPS is defined as diluted net earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations, adjusted for the effect, after income tax, of: (i) the non-controlling interest redemption increment; (ii) amortization expense related to intangible assets recognized in connection with acquisitions; (iii) acquisition-related items; (iv) Spin-off related costs; (v) restructuring costs and (vi) stock-based compensation expense. We believe this measure is useful to investors because it provides a supplemental way to understand the underlying operating performance of the Company and enhances the comparability of operating results from period to period. Adjusted EPS is not a recognized measure of financial performance under GAAP, and should not be considered as a substitute for diluted net earnings per share from continuing operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our method of calculating this non-GAAP measure may differ from other issuers and, accordingly, this measure may not be comparable to measures used by other issuers. A reconciliation of net earnings (loss) from continuing operations to adjusted net earnings and of diluted net earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations to adjusted EPS appears below.

3. Local currency revenue growth rate and internal revenue growth rate measures

Percentage revenue variances presented on a local currency basis are calculated by translating the current period results of our non-US dollar denominated operations to US dollars using the foreign currency exchange rates from the periods against which the current period results are being compared. Percentage revenue variances presented on an internal growth basis are calculated assuming acquired entities were owned for the entire current period as well as the entire prior period. Revenue from acquired entities is estimated based on the operating performance of each acquired entity for the year prior to the acquisition date. We believe that these revenue growth rate methodologies provide a framework for assessing the Company’s performance and operations excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and acquisitions. Since these revenue growth rate measures are not calculated under GAAP, they may not be comparable to similar measures used by other issuers.
