Focus Financial Partners Reports Second Quarter 2018 Results

Revenue growth of 47% driven by robust organic performance and new partner firm additions

·Total revenues of $231.4 million, an increase of 47.2%

·Net loss of $7.7 million

·Adjusted Net Income* of $29.0 million, an increase of 37.6%

·Adjusted Net Income Per Share* of $0.40, an increase of 37.6%

NEW YORK, August 28, 2018 — Focus Financial Partners Inc. (Nasdaq: FOCS), (“Focus Inc.”, “we”, “us” or “our”), a leading partnership of independent, fiduciary wealth management firms, today reported results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2018.

“Following our successful initial public offering (“IPO”) in July, we are very pleased to report record financial performance”, said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Rudy Adolf. “Revenue growth of 47.2% and Adjusted Net Income Per Share growth of 37.6% were driven by robust organic growth, as well as new partner firm additions. During the three months ended June 30, 2018, we added three partner firms — Bartlett Wealth Management, Campbell Deegan Financial and Nigro Karlin Segal Feldstein & Bolno — with $23.8 million in combined acquired base earnings. Since the conclusion of the company’s second fiscal quarter through the date of this press release, three additional partner firms have joined us: Asset Advisors, Edge Capital Group and Vista Wealth Management with $11.2 million in combined acquired base earnings. Our performance this quarter is consistent with our historical track record of producing double-digit growth in revenues and earnings.”

Mr. Adolf continued, “We believe the strength of our second-quarter performance demonstrates the value proposition of our unique, differentiated partnership model and fiduciary approach to wealth management. Also, during the quarter, we continued to enhance the value-added services we provide to our partner firms by completing a minority investment in Financial Insight Technology Inc., also known as SmartAsset. SmartAsset is a New York-based FinTech company that connects prospective clients with financial advisors and provides tools to help individuals make financial decisions.”

Presentation

This press release presents historical results for the periods presented of Focus Financial Partners, LLC (“Focus LLC”), the predecessor of Focus Inc. for financial reporting purposes. The financial results of Focus Inc. have not been included in the press release as it had not engaged in any business activities during the periods presented. Accordingly, these historical results do not purport to reflect what the results of operations of Focus Inc. would have been had Focus Inc.’s IPO and related transactions occurred prior to such periods.

Amended Credit Facilities and Initial Public Offering

On July 30, 2018, we closed on an amendment to our credit facility that became effective in connection with the closing of the IPO. The amendments reduced the interest rate margin on our term loan and revolver, and increased the borrowing capacity under our revolver facility from $250.0 million to $650.0 million.

On July 30, 2018, we closed our IPO of 18,648,649 shares of Class A common stock, including 2,432,432 shares of Class A common stock sold in connection with the full exercise of the option to purchase additional shares granted to the underwriters, at $33.00 per share. Upon closing of the IPO and related transactions, there was a total of 42,529,651 shares of Class A common stock outstanding, zero shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of 890,409 vested non-compensatory stock options and unvested compensatory stock options (assuming vesting of unvested compensatory stock options and a then-current value of the Class A common stock equal to the $33.00 IPO price), 22,499,665 shares of Class B common stock and Focus LLC common units outstanding and 6,814,600 Focus LLC common units issuable upon conversion of the outstanding 17,114,670 vested and unvested incentive units (assuming vesting of the unvested incentive units and a then-current value of the Focus LLC common units equal to the $33.00 IPO price) in connection with exercise of an exchange right.

** See footnote 2 under “How We Evaluate Our Business”.

We received estimated net proceeds from the IPO of approximately $564.8 million, including $74.7 million in connection with the full exercise of the option to purchase additional shares granted to the underwriters, after deducting underwriting discounts and other estimated IPO expenses. We used the net proceeds to repurchase outstanding Focus LLC units, retire our $207.0 million Second Lien Term Loan, pay down approximately $185.5 million of our First Lien Term Loan to $803.0 million, and will use the remainder for general corporate purposes, including potential acquisitions.

How We Evaluate Our Business

We focus on several key financial metrics in evaluating the success of our business, the success of our partner firms and our resulting financial position and operating performance. Key metrics for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2018 include the following:

Number of partner firms at period end (7)	48			56			48			56

(1)Represents growth in our GAAP revenue.

(2)Organic revenue growth represents the year-over-year growth in revenue related to partner firms, including growth related to acquisitions of wealth management practices and customer relationships by our partner firms and partner firms that have merged, that for the entire interim periods presented, are included in our consolidated statements of operations for each of the entire interim periods presented. We believe these growth statistics are useful in that they present full-period revenue growth of partner firms on a ‘‘same store’’ basis exclusive of the effect of the partial period results of partner firms that are acquired during the comparable periods.

(3)The terms of our management agreements entitle the management companies to management fees typically consisting of all Earnings Before Partner Compensation (“EBPC”) in excess of Base Earnings up to Target Earnings, plus a percentage of any EBPC in excess of Target Earnings. Management fees growth represents the interim growth in GAAP management fees earned by management companies. While an expense, we believe that growth in management fees reflect the strength of the partnership.

(4)Organic management fees growth represents the year over-year growth in management fees earned by management companies related to partner firms, including growth related to acquisitions of wealth management practices and customer relationships by our partner firms and partner firms that have merged, that for the entire interim periods presented, are included in our consolidated statements of operations for each of the entire interim periods presented.  We believe that these growth statistics are useful in that they present full-period growth of management fees on a ‘‘same store’’ basis exclusive of the effect of the partial period results of partner firms that are acquired during the comparable periods.

(5)For additional information regarding Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income Per Share and Adjusted Shares Outstanding, including a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, please read ‘‘—Adjusted EBITDA’’ and ‘‘—Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share’’.

5

(6)The terms of our management agreements entitle the management companies to management fees typically consisting of all future EBPC of the acquired wealth management firm in excess of Base Earnings up to Target Earnings, plus a percentage of any EBPC in excess of Target Earnings. Acquired Base Earnings is equal to our retained cumulative preferred position in Base Earnings. We are entitled to receive these earnings notwithstanding any earnings that we are entitled to receive in excess of Target Earnings. Base Earnings may change in future periods for various business or contractual matters. For example, from time to time when a partner firm consummates an acquisition, the management agreement among the partner firm, the management company and the principals is amended to adjust Base Earnings and Target Earnings to reflect the projected post-acquisition earnings of the partner firm.

(7)Represents the number of partner firms on the last day of the period presented. The number includes new partner firms acquired during the period reduced by any potential partner firms that merged with existing partner firms prior to the last day of the period.

Pro Forma Financial Information

We believe that the historical results of operations and financial condition prior to the IPO and related transactions, are not comparable to the results of operations and financial condition for subsequent periods. As such, we have presented select pro forma financial information in the tables below to provide a more meaningful basis for comparison of future financial results.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 gives effect to the IPO and related transactions described in the prospectus filed with the SEC on July 27, 2018, as if each had occurred on January 1, 2018. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data is presented for informational purposes only and should not be considered indicative of actual results of operations that would have been achieved had the IPO and related transactions been consummated on the dates indicated and do not purport to be indicative of results of operations as of any future date or for any future period.

Also reflects the amortization of estimated debt financing costs in connection with the July 2018 amendment to the credit facility.

(c)Reflects the impact of U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income taxes on the income of Focus Inc. The pro forma effective income tax rate is estimated to be approximately 27% and was determined by combining the projected U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income taxes.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) excluding interest income, interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), amortization of debt financing costs, intangible amortization and impairments, if any, depreciation and other amortization, non-cash equity compensation expense, non-cash changes in fair value of estimated contingent consideration, gain on sale of investment, loss on extinguishment of borrowings, other expense/income, net, delayed offering cost expense, other one-time transaction expenses, and management contract buyout, if any. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of, our reported GAAP results, provides additional useful information to investors regarding our performance and overall results of operations for various reasons, including the following:

·Non-cash equity grants made to employees or non-employees at a certain price and point in time do not necessarily reflect how our business is performing at any particular time; stock-based compensation expense is not a key measure of our operating performance;

·Contingent consideration or earn outs can vary substantially from company to company and depending upon each company’s growth metrics and accounting assumption methods; the non-cash changes in fair value of estimated contingent consideration is not considered a key measure in comparing our operating performance; and

·Amortization expenses can vary substantially from company to company and from period to period depending upon each company’s financing and accounting methods, the fair value and average expected life of acquired intangible assets and the method by which assets were acquired; the amortization of intangible assets obtained in acquisitions are not considered a key measure in comparing our operating performance.

We use Adjusted EBITDA:

·As a measure of operating performance;

·For planning purposes, including the preparation of budgets and forecasts;

·To allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of our business;

·To evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies; and

·As a consideration in determining compensation for certain employees.

Adjusted EBITDA does not purport to be an alternative to net income (loss) or cash flows from operating activities. The term Adjusted EBITDA is not defined under GAAP, and Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net income (loss), operating income or any other performance or liquidity measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

·Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect all cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

·Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; and

·Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense on our debt or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments.

In addition, Adjusted EBITDA can differ significantly from company to company depending on strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which companies operate and capital investments. We compensate for these limitations by relying also on the GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental information.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share

We analyze our performance using Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share are non-GAAP measures. We define Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss) excluding income tax expense (benefit), amortization of debt financing costs, intangible amortization and impairments, if any, non-cash equity compensation expense, non-cash changes in fair value of estimated contingent consideration, gain on sale of investment, loss on extinguishment of borrowings, delayed offering cost expense, management contract buyout, if any, and other one-time transaction expenses. The calculation of Adjusted Net Income also includes adjustments to reflect (i) a pro forma 27% income tax rate assuming all earnings of Focus LLC were recognized by Focus Inc. and no earnings were attributable to non-controlling interests and (ii) tax adjustments from intangible asset related income tax benefits from acquisitions based on a pro forma 27% tax rate.

Adjusted Net Income per share is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Income by the Adjusted Shares Outstanding. Adjusted Shares Outstanding includes all shares of Class A common stock issued in connection with the IPO and related transactions, assumes that all vested non-compensatory stock options and unvested compensatory stock options have been exercised (assuming vesting of unvested compensatory stock options and a then-current value of the Class A common stock equal to the $33.00 IPO price) and assumes that 100% of the Focus LLC common units and vested and unvested incentive units following the IPO have been exchanged for Class A common stock (assuming vesting of the unvested incentive units and a then-current value of the Focus LLC common units equal to the $33.00 IPO price).

We believe that Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share, viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of, our reported GAAP results, provide additional useful information to investors regarding our performance and overall results of operations for various reasons, including the following:

12

·Non-cash equity grants made to employees or non-employees at a certain price and point in time do not necessarily reflect how our business is performing at any particular time; stock-based compensation expense is not a key measure of our operating performance;

·Contingent consideration or earn outs can vary substantially from company to company and depending upon each company’s growth metrics and accounting assumption methods; the non-cash changes in fair value of estimated contingent consideration is not considered a key measure in comparing our operating performance; and

·Amortization expenses can vary substantially from company to company and from period to period depending upon each company’s financing and accounting methods, the fair value and average expected life of acquired intangible assets and the method by which assets were acquired; the amortization of intangible assets obtained in acquisitions are not considered a key measure in comparing our operating performance.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share do not purport to be an alternative to net income (loss) or cash flows from operating activities. The terms Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share are not defined under GAAP, and Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share are not a measure of net income (loss), operating income or any other performance or liquidity measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

·Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share do not reflect all cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

·Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; and

·Other companies in the financial services industry may calculate Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

In addition, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share can differ significantly from company to company depending on strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which companies operate and capital investments. We compensate for these limitations by relying also on the GAAP results and use Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share as supplemental information.

Except as required by applicable law, including federal securities laws, we do not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements. Non-GAAP Financial Measures We analyze our performance using Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share are non-GAAP measures. We define Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss) excluding income tax expense (benefit), amortization of debt financing costs, intangible amortization and impairments, if any, non-cash equity compensation expense, non-cash changes in fair value of estimated contingent consideration, gain on sale of investment, loss on extinguishment of borrowings, delayed offering cost expense, management contract buyout, if any, and other one-time transaction expenses. The calculation of Adjusted Net Income also includes adjustments to reflect (i) a pro forma 27% income tax rate assuming all earnings of Focus Financial Partners, LLC (“Focus LLC”) were recognized by Focus Financial Partners Inc. (“Focus Inc.”) and no earnings were attributable to non-controlling interests and (ii) tax adjustments from intangible asset related income tax benefits from acquisitions based on a pro forma 27% tax rate. Adjusted Net Income per share is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Income by the Adjusted Shares Outstanding. Adjusted Shares Outstanding includes all shares of Class A common stock issued in connection with the IPO and related transactions, assumes that all vested non-compensatory stock options and unvested compensatory stock options have been exercised (assuming vesting of unvested compensatory stock options and a then-current value of the Class A common stock equal to the $33.00 IPO price) and assumes that 100% of the Focus LLC common units and vested and unvested incentive units following the IPO have been exchanged for Class A common stock (assuming vesting of the unvested incentive units and a then-current value of the Focus LLC common units equal to the $33.00 IPO price).

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share do not purport to be an alternative to net income (loss) or cash flows from operating activities. The terms Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share are not defined under GAAP, and Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share are not a measure of net income (loss), operating income or any other performance or liquidity measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are: Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share do not reflect all cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; and Other companies in the financial services industry may calculate Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
