Piper Jaffray Companies Announces
2013 First Quarter Results
MINNEAPOLIS – Apr. 17, 2013 – Piper Jaffray Companies (NYSE: PJC) today announced that for the quarter ended Mar. 31, 2013, net income from continuing operations was $10.7 million, or $0.60 per diluted common share. These results compared to net income from continuing operations of $6.2 million, or $0.33 per diluted common share, in the year-ago period, and $15.6 million, or $0.88 per diluted common share, in the fourth quarter of 2012.
For the first quarter of 2013, net revenues from continuing operations were $109.5 million, compared to $113.4 million in the year-ago period and $140.9 million in the sequential fourth quarter.
For the quarter ended Mar. 31, 2013, net income, including continuing and discontinued operations, was $10.1 million, or $0.57 per diluted common share, compared to net income of $2.9 million, or $0.15 per diluted common share, in the year-ago period, and $11.8 million, or $0.67 per diluted common share, in the fourth quarter of 2012. Discontinued operations includes the operating results of our Hong Kong capital markets business, which we have shut down, and FAMCO, a division of our asset management segment. On March 8, 2013, the firm signed a definitive agreement to sell FAMCO. The transaction, valued at $4.0 million, is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to close during the second quarter of 2013.
“We produced solid results this quarter led by our public finance, fixed income and asset management businesses,” said Andrew S. Duff, chairman and chief executive officer.
First Quarter Results from Continuing Operations
Consolidated Expenses
For the first quarter of 2013, compensation and benefits expenses were $66.1 million, down 4% and 24% compared to the first and fourth quarters of 2012, respectively, due to lower financial results.
For the first quarter of 2013, compensation and benefits expenses were 60.4% of net revenues, compared to 60.6% and 62.0% for the first and fourth quarters of 2012, respectively.
Non-compensation expenses were $25.3 million for the first quarter of 2013, compared to $29.4 million in the year-ago period and $30.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. The decrease was primarily due to receipt of insurance proceeds for the reimbursement of prior legal settlements.
Business Segment Results
The firm has two reportable business segments: Capital Markets and Asset Management. Consolidated net revenues and expenses are fully allocated to these two segments. The operating results of our Hong Kong capital markets business, and FAMCO, a division of our asset management segment, are presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
Capital Markets
For the quarter, Capital Markets generated pre-tax operating income of $12.8 million, compared to $10.7 million and $19.4 million in the first and fourth quarters of 2012, respectively.
Net revenues were $91.2 million, down 6% and 27% compared to the year-ago period and the fourth quarter of 2012, respectively.
• | Equity financing revenues of $14.3 million decreased 38% and 21% compared to the first and fourth quarters of 2012, respectively. Revenues were down compared to both periods due to lower revenue per transaction. |
• | Fixed income financing revenues of $17.0 million increased 15% compared to the year-ago period and decreased 17% compared to fourth quarter of 2012. Revenues were favorable compared to the year-ago period due to higher revenue per transaction, and lower compared to the fourth quarter of 2012 due to fewer completed transactions. |
• | Advisory services revenues were $9.6 million, down 11% and 79% compared to the first and fourth quarters of 2012, respectively, due to fewer completed transactions. Advisory services |
revenues were very strong in the fourth quarter of 2012 as sellers were motivated to complete deals prior to year-end, which resulted in less activity in early 2013.
• | Equity institutional brokerage revenues of $20.7 million were in line with the first quarter of 2012 and up 3% compared to the fourth quarter of 2012. |
• | Fixed income institutional brokerage revenues were $28.0 million, down slightly compared to the first quarter of 2012 and up 19% compared to the fourth quarter of 2012. Revenues were favorable compared to the fourth quarter of 2012 due to increased results from the firm's strategic trading businesses and the expansion of our middle market sales group. |
• | Operating expenses for the first quarter were $78.5 million, down 9% compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower non-compensation expenses. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2012, operating expenses decreased 25% due to lower compensation and non-compensation expenses. |
• | For the first quarter of 2013, the capital markets segment pre-tax operating margin was 14.0%, compared to 11.1% in the year-ago period, and a 15.6% operating margin in the fourth quarter of 2012. Pre-tax operating margin in the current quarter was higher compared to the year-ago period due to lower operating expenses, and less than the fourth quarter of 2012 due to lower revenues. |
Asset Management
For the quarter ended Mar. 31, 2013, asset management generated pre-tax operating income of $5.4 million, up 21% and 61% compared to the first and fourth quarters of 2012, respectively.
Net revenues were $18.3 million, up 10% and 12%, compared to the year-ago period and fourth quarter of 2012, respectively. Increased revenues were driven by higher management fees from increased assets under management (AUM) due to market appreciation.
• | Operating expenses for the current quarter were $12.9 million, up 6% compared to the year-ago period and essentially flat with the fourth quarter of 2012. Segment pre-tax operating margin was 29.6%, compared to 26.9% in the year-ago period and 20.6% in the fourth quarter of 2012. Segment pre-tax margin improved relative to the comparable quarters due to higher revenues. |
• | Assets under management were $10.2 billion in the first quarter of 2013, compared to $9.1 billion in the year-ago period and the fourth quarter of 2012. Compared to the sequential fourth quarter, the increase in AUM was attributable to the market appreciation of client assets. |
Other Matters
In the first quarter of 2013, the firm acquired $13.9 million, or 340,789 shares, related to employee obligations on the vesting of equity awards.
First Quarter Results from Discontinued Operations
Discontinued operations includes the operating results of our Hong Kong capital markets business, which we shut down, and FAMCO, a division of our asset management segment. On March 8, 2013, the firm signed a definitive agreement to sell FAMCO. The transaction is expected to close during the second quarter of 2013.
For the quarter ended Mar. 31, 2013, the net loss from discontinued operations was $0.5 million, or $0.03 per diluted common share, compared to a net loss of $3.3 million in the year-ago period, or $0.17 per diluted share. The net loss from discontinued operations was $3.7 million, or $0.21 per diluted common share, in the fourth quarter of 2012, which included a $3.4 million after-tax, non-cash goodwill impairment charge related to FAMCO.

FOOTNOTES
(1) | Tangible common shareholders’ equity |
Tangible shareholders’ equity equals total shareholders’ equity less all goodwill and identifiable intangible assets. Tangible book value per share is computed by dividing tangible shareholders’ equity by common shares outstanding. Management believes that tangible book value per share is a more meaningful measure of our book value per share. Shareholders’ equity is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to tangible shareholders’ equity. The following is a reconciliation of shareholders’ equity to tangible shareholders’ equity:
