Eaton Vance Corp.

Report for the Three and Six Month Periods Ended April 30, 2019

 

Boston, MA, May 21, 2019 – Eaton Vance Corp. (NYSE: EV) today reported earnings per diluted share of $0.89 for the second quarter of fiscal 2019, an increase of 14 percent from $0.78 of earnings per diluted share in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and an increase of 19 percent from $0.75 of earnings per diluted share in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.

 

The Company reported adjusted earnings per diluted share(1) of $0.89 for the second quarter of fiscal 2019, an increase of 16 percent from $0.77 of adjusted earnings per diluted share in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and an increase of 22 percent from $0.73 of adjusted earnings per diluted share in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Earnings under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) matched adjusted earnings in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Earnings under U.S. GAAP exceeded adjusted earnings by $0.01 per diluted share in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and $0.02 per diluted share in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, reflecting the reversal of net excess tax benefits related to stock-based awards of $1.9 million and $2.9 million, respectively.

 

Net gains and other investment income related to seed capital investments contributed $0.03 and $0.01 to earnings per diluted share in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2018, respectively, and were negligible in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Net income from consolidated collateralized loan obligation (CLO) entities contributed $0.07 to earnings per diluted share in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, was negligible in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and reduced earnings by $0.02 per diluted share in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.

 

Consolidated net inflows of $4.6 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 represent a 4 percent annualized internal growth rate in managed assets (consolidated net inflows divided by beginning of period consolidated assets under management). This compares to net inflows of $4.4 billion and 4 percent annualized internal growth in managed assets in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and net inflows of $1.5 billion and annualized internal growth in managed assets of 1 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Excluding exposure management mandates, the Company’s annualized internal growth rate in managed assets was 3 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, 9 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and 2 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.

 

(1)Although the Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP, management believes that certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, specifically, adjusted net income attributable to Eaton Vance Corp. shareholders and adjusted earnings per diluted share, while not a substitute for U.S. GAAP financial measures, may be effective indicators of the Company’s performance over time. Non-U.S. GAAP financial measures should not be construed to be superior to U.S. GAAP measures. In calculating these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, net income attributable to Eaton Vance Corp. shareholders and earnings per diluted share are adjusted to exclude items management deems non-operating or non-recurring in nature, or otherwise outside the ordinary course of business. These adjustments may include, when applicable, the add back of closed-end fund structuring fees, costs associated with special dividends, debt repayments and tax settlements, the tax impact of stock-based compensation shortfalls or windfalls, and non-recurring charges for the effect of the tax law changes. Management and our Board of Directors, as well as certain of our outside investors, consider these adjusted numbers a measure of the Company’s underlying operating performance. Management believes adjusted net income attributable to Eaton Vance Corp. shareholders and adjusted earnings per diluted share are important indicators of our operations because they exclude items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, our core operating results, and may provide a useful baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying business.

 
 

 

The Company’s annualized internal management fee revenue growth rate (management fees attributable to consolidated inflows less management fees attributable to consolidated outflows divided by beginning of period consolidated management fee revenue) was 1 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, 6 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and -4 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. These growth rates reflect the Company’s retrospective adoption of Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, on November 1, 2018, which provides for management fee revenue to be recorded net of associated subsidy expenses.

 

Consolidated assets under management were $469.9 billion on April 30, 2019, up 7 percent from $440.1 billion of consolidated managed assets on April 30, 2018 and up 6 percent from $444.7 billion of consolidated managed assets on January 31, 2019. The year-over-year increase in consolidated assets under management reflects net inflows of $11.9 billion and market price appreciation of $17.9 billion. The sequential quarterly increase in consolidated assets under management reflects net inflows of $4.6 billion and market price appreciation of $20.7 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2019.

 

“Strong market returns and continued net inflows combined to drive Eaton Vance’s consolidated assets under management to record levels in the second quarter of fiscal 2019,” said Thomas E. Faust Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “While improved from the prior quarter, the Company’s operating income continues to be adversely affected by declines in managed assets of certain higher-fee strategies and spending in support of business growth.”

 

Average consolidated assets under management were $456.2 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, up 4 percent from $440.6 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and up 4 percent from $437.4 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.

 

As shown in Attachment 10, excluding performance-based fees, annualized management fee rates on consolidated assets under management averaged 31.8 basis points in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, down 3 percent from 32.8 basis points in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and down 1 percent from 32.0 basis points in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Changes in average annualized management fee rates for the compared periods primarily reflect shifts in the Company’s mix of business. Average annualized management fee rates for prior year periods have been restated to reflect the retrospective adoption of ASU 2014-09 on November 1, 2018 as described above.

 

Attachments 5 and 6 summarize the Company’s consolidated assets under management and net flows by investment mandate and investment vehicle. Attachments 7, 8 and 9 summarize the Company’s ending consolidated assets under management by investment mandate, investment vehicle and investment affiliate. Attachment 10 shows the Company’s average annualized management fee rates by investment mandate.

 

As shown in Attachments 5 and 6, consolidated sales and other inflows were $36.8 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, down 7 percent from $39.4 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and down 18 percent from $44.7 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.

 

Consolidated redemptions and other outflows were $32.2 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, down 8 percent from $35.0 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and down 25 percent from $43.2 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.

 

As of April 30, 2019, the Company’s 49 percent-owned affiliate Hexavest Inc. (Hexavest) managed $13.9 billion of client assets, down 12 percent from $15.8 billion of managed assets on April 30, 2018 and up 5 percent from $13.2 billion of managed assets on January 31, 2019. Hexavest had net inflows of $0.2 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 versus net outflows of $0.2 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and net outflows of $0.7 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Attachment 11 summarizes the assets under management and net flows of Hexavest. Other than Eaton Vance-sponsored funds for which Hexavest is the adviser or sub-adviser, the managed assets and flows of Hexavest are not included in Eaton Vance consolidated totals.

Second Quarter Fiscal 2019 vs. Second Quarter Fiscal 2018(2)

 

Revenue totaled $411.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 compared to $412.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2018. Management fees were up 1 percent, as a 4 percent increase in average consolidated assets under management more than offset lower consolidated average management fee rates. Performance fees were $1.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and $(0.5) million in the second quarter of fiscal 2018. Distribution and service fee revenues were collectively down 7 percent, reflecting lower managed assets in fund share classes that are subject to these fees.

 

Operating expenses increased 2 percent to $284.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 from $280.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2018. Increases in compensation, service fee expense, amortization of deferred sales commissions, fund-related expenses and other operating expenses were partially offset by a decrease in distribution expense. The increase in compensation reflects higher salaries and benefits associated with increases in headcount, higher stock-based compensation and $1.6 million of costs associated with employee terminations recognized in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, partially offset by lower sales-based incentive compensation and operating income-based bonus accruals. The increase in service fee expense reflects higher private fund service fee payments, partially offset by lower Class C service fee payments. The increase in amortization of deferred sales commissions reflects higher private fund and Class C commission amortization. The increase in fund-related expenses reflects higher sub-advisory fees paid and an increase in fund expenses borne by the Company on funds for which it earns an all-in fee. Other operating expenses increased 3 percent, primarily reflecting higher information technology spending, partially offset by lower travel and other corporate expenses. The decrease in distribution expense primarily reflects lower Class C distribution fee payments.

 

(2) Prior period revenue and expenses have been restated to reflect certain classification adjustments from the Company’s retrospective adoption of ASU 2014-09 on November 1, 2018. The adoption of the new revenue recognition accounting standard had no impact on operating income or earnings per share.

 

 
 

Operating income decreased 4 percent to $127.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 from $132.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2018. Operating margin decreased to 30.9 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 from 32.2 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2018.

 

Non-operating income totaled $20.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 versus $5.3 million of non-operating expense in the second quarter of fiscal 2018. The year-over-year change reflects a $15.5 million increase in net gains and other investment income from the Company’s investments in sponsored strategies, including consolidated sponsored funds, and a $10.1 million increase in income contribution from consolidated CLO entities.

 

The Company’s effective tax rate, calculated as a percentage of income before income taxes and equity in net income of affiliates, was 25.1 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and 26.7 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2018. The Company’s effective tax rate is discussed in greater detail in the section captioned “Taxation” below.

 

Equity in net income of affiliates was $2.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and $3.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2018. In the second quarter of fiscal 2019, substantially all equity in net income of affiliates related to the Company’s investment in Hexavest. Equity in net income of affiliates in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 included $2.8 million from the Company’s Hexavest investment and $0.3 million from the Company’s investment in a private equity partnership.

 

As detailed in Attachment 3, net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling and other beneficial interests was $11.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and $(0.2) million in the second quarter of fiscal 2018. The year-over-year change primarily reflects an increase in income earned by consolidated sponsored funds.

 

The Company’s weighted average basic shares outstanding were 110.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and 115.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2018, a decrease of 5 percent. The year-over-year reduction reflects share repurchases in excess of new shares issued upon the vesting of restricted stock awards and the exercise of employee stock options. On a diluted basis, the Company’s weighted average shares outstanding were 114.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and 123.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2018, a decrease of 8 percent. The decline in weighted average diluted shares outstanding further reflects a decrease in the dilutive effect of in-the-money options and unvested restricted stock awards due to lower market prices of the Company’s shares.

 

Second Quarter Fiscal 2019 vs. First Quarter Fiscal 2019

 

In the second quarter of fiscal 2019, revenue increased 1 percent to $411.9 million from $406.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Management fees were up 2 percent, as a 4 percent increase in average consolidated assets under management outweighed the impact of three fewer fee days and lower consolidated average management fee rates. Performance fees were $1.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and $(0.3) million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Distribution and service fee revenues were collectively down 5 percent, reflecting lower managed assets in fund share classes that are subject to these fees.

 

Operating expenses totaled $284.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 compared to $285.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, reflecting decreases in compensation and distribution expense, partially offset by increases in service fee expense, fund-related expenses and other operating expenses. The decrease in compensation expense reflects lower salaries and benefits and stock-based compensation, driven by fewer payroll days in the second fiscal quarter, and lower sales-based incentive compensation, partially offset by higher performance- and operating income-based bonus accruals and $1.6 million of costs recognized in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 associated with employee terminations. The decrease in distribution expense reflects lower Class C distribution fee payments, partially offset by higher up-front sales commission expense. The increase in service fee expense reflects higher Class A and private fund service fee payments, partially offset by lower Class C service fee payments. The increase in fund-related expenses primarily reflects higher sub-advisory fees paid. Other operating expenses increased 1 percent, primarily reflecting higher information technology and professional services expenses, partially offset by lower facilities and other corporate expenses.

 

Operating income increased 5 percent to $127.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 from $121.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Operating margin increased to 30.9 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 from 29.8 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.

 

Non-operating income totaled $20.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 versus $3.2 million of non-operating expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The sequential change primarily reflects a $9.4 million increase in net gains and other investment income from the Company’s investments in sponsored strategies, including consolidated sponsored funds, and a $13.9 million increase in income contribution from consolidated CLO entities.

 

The Company’s effective tax rate, calculated as a percentage of income before income taxes and equity in net income of affiliates, was 25.1 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and 23.4 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The Company’s effective tax rate is discussed in greater detail in the section captioned “Taxation” below.

 

Equity in net income of affiliates was $2.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and $1.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. In both the second and first quarters of fiscal 2019, substantially all equity in net income of affiliates related to the Company’s investment in Hexavest.

 

As detailed in Attachment 3, net income attributable to non-controlling and other beneficial interests was $11.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and $5.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The sequential change primarily reflects an increase in income earned by consolidated sponsored funds.

 

The Company’s weighted average basic shares outstanding were 110.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and 112.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, a decrease of 2 percent. The sequential reduction reflects share repurchases in excess of new shares issued upon the vesting of restricted stock awards and the exercise of employee stock options. On a diluted basis, the Company’s weighted average shares outstanding were 114.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and 115.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, a decrease of 1 percent. The change in weighted average diluted shares outstanding in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 also reflects an increase in the dilutive effect of in-the-money options due to higher market prices of the Company’s shares.

 
 

Taxation

 

The following table reconciles the statutory federal income tax rate to the Company’s effective tax rate for the second and first quarters of fiscal 2019 and the second quarter of fiscal 2018:

 

    Three Months Ended
    April 30,   January 31,   April 30,  
    2019   2019   2018  
  Statutory U.S. federal income tax rate 21.0 % 21.0 % 23.3 %
 

State income taxes for current year, net of

federal income tax benefits

4.5   4.6   4.3  
 

Net income attributable to non-controlling

and other beneficial interests

(0.9)   (1.0)   0.1  
  Other items 0.7   1.3   0.5  
  Adjusted effective income tax rate 25.3   25.9   28.2  
 

Net excess tax benefits from stock-based

compensation plans

(0.2)   (2.5)   (1.5)  
  Effective income tax rate 25.1 % 23.4 % 26.7 %

 

The income tax provision for the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and the first quarter of fiscal 2019 includes $0.7 million and $0.6 million, respectively, of charges associated with certain provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (2017 Tax Act) taking effect for the Company in fiscal 2019, relating principally to limitations on the deductibility of executive compensation.

 

The Company’s income tax provision was reduced by net excess tax benefits related to the exercise of employee stock options and vesting of restricted stock awards during the period totaling $0.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, $1.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and $2.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.

 

The Company’s calculations of adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per diluted share remove the tax impact of stock-based compensation shortfalls or windfalls recognized in connection with the accounting guidance adopted in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. On this basis, the Company’s adjusted effective tax rate was 25.3 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, 28.2 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and 25.9 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. On the same adjusted basis, the Company estimates that its effective tax rate will be approximately 25.9 to 26.4 percent for the balance of fiscal 2019 and for the fiscal year as a whole. The Company’s actual adjusted effective tax rate for fiscal 2019 may vary from this estimate due to changes in the Company’s tax policy interpretations and assumptions, additional regulatory guidance that may be issued and other factors.

 

(1) The Company’s statutory U.S. federal income tax rate for fiscal 2019 is 21 percent based on the 2017 Tax Act. The Company’s statutory U.S. federal income tax rate for fiscal 2018 was a blend of 35 percent and 21 percent based on the number of days in the Company’s fiscal year before and after the January 1, 2018 effective date of the reduction in the federal corporate income tax rate pursuant to the 2017 Tax Act.

 (2) Represents the Company’s effective income tax rate, excluding the tax impact of stock-based compensation shortfalls or windfalls.

Management believes that the Company’s adjusted effective income tax rate is an important indicator of our operations because it excludes items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, our core operating results, and may provide a useful baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying business.

 (3) Reflects the impact of ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which was adopted by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. The Company anticipates that the adoption of this guidance may cause fluctuations in the Company’s effective tax rate, particularly in the first quarter of each fiscal year, when most of the Company’s annual stock-based awards vest.

(1) Prior year amounts have been restated to reflect the Company’s retrospective adoption of ASU 2014-09 on November 1, 2018. Fund subsidies previously included as a component of fund-related expenses are now presented as a contra-revenue component of management fees. In addition, certain front-end load sales commissions that were previously reported on a net basis as a component of distribution expense are now reported on a gross basis in distribution and underwriter fee revenue and distribution expense. The adoption of ASU 2014-09 had no impact on net income or earnings per share.
