Artisan Partners Asset Management Inc. Reports 2Q17 Results
Milwaukee, WI - July 31, 2017 - Artisan Partners Asset Management Inc. (NYSE: APAM) (the “Company” or “Artisan Partners”) today reported its results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, including net income and earnings per share.
CEO and Chairman Eric Colson said, “We remain focused on attracting and retaining talented investment professionals and aligning them with the long-term demand of sophisticated asset allocators. That includes providing our investment teams with expanding degrees of investment freedom with which they can generate successful and differentiated investment outcomes.
“In June, the Artisan Credit team began managing its second investment strategy, offered to clients through a private fund structure that we expect will provide the Credit team with longer duration capital and more degrees of freedom to generate returns and manage risk. During the second quarter we also started the process for launching a fourth strategy for the Artisan Growth team--the Artisan Global Discovery strategy. And we expect that later this year we will offer a private fund managed by the Artisan Thematic team, whose first strategy launched earlier this year.
“Expanding degrees of investment freedom was a key theme when we recently brought together all of our investment team leaders and representatives of over 100 current and prospective clients, consultants, and intermediary partners for an investment forum in Milwaukee. Due to the time commitment required from clients and portfolio managers, we rarely host large, firm--wide events like this. However, with all of the headlines and noise about on-going industry disruption, this proved to be an excellent time to bring together all of our investment teams and a large group of current and prospective clients, consultants, and intermediary partners.
“Throughout the four-day forum, there was lively dialogue between our investment teams and clients about investment ideas and how to capitalize on them. The dialogue was a very good reminder of what’s most important in our business: generating long-term investment returns that help clients achieve their goals and missions--funding retirements, financing educations, growing charitable endowments. Generating long-term investment returns is much more important to our business than the myriad items that generate a lot of press and noise, such as short-term asset flows or the latest innovation in investment vehicle wrappers.
“Across our investment teams, performance has been very strong in 2017. In particular, our Global Equity team’s Non-U.S. Growth and Global Equity strategies and all three of the Growth team’s strategies have generated strong absolute and relative returns during 2017. More importantly, longer-term returns remain very strong. Eight of Artisan’s 11 investment strategies with at least a five-year track record have beaten their broad-based benchmark indexes since inception by an average of between 1.56% and 5.44% per year, after management fees. Those eight strategies represented over 90% of our AUM at the end of the second quarter.
“Strong absolute and relative investment returns have grown our assets from $95 billion at the end of June 2016 to $109.4 billion at the end of June 2017. Over that period, AUM growth from investment returns has been partially off-set by firm-wide net outflows of $3.0 billion, primarily resulting from $4.4 billion and $2.3 billion of net outflows from our Non-U.S. Growth and U.S. Mid-Cap Growth strategies, both of which have very strong investment returns in 2017.
“Over the same trailing 12-month period, our three global strategies and our High Income and Developing World strategies have combined net inflows of $5.8 billion. Our recent experience continues to demonstrate that there are significant opportunities to attract assets to high value added active investment strategies, especially strategies that give talented investors broad flexibility to generate returns and manage risk. We will continue our efforts to maintain an environment in which investment talent can thrive with expanding degrees of investment freedom.”

Assets Under Management Increased to $109.4 billion
During the June quarter, our AUM increased to $109.4 billion at June 30, 2017, an increase of $5.6 billion, or 5.4%, compared to $103.8 billion at March 31, 2017, as a result of $7.1 billion in market appreciation partially offset by $1.5 billion of net client cash outflows. Compared to June 30, 2016, AUM increased $14.4 billion, or 15.2%, due to $17.4 billion in market appreciation partially offset by $3.0 billion of net client cash outflows.
Average AUM for the June quarter of 2017 was $107.2 billion, an increase of 6.0% compared to average AUM for the March quarter of 2017 of $101.1 billion and an 11.0% increase from the average of $96.6 billion for the June quarter of 2016.
June Quarter of 2017 Compared to March Quarter of 2017
GAAP net income was $26.6 million, or $0.45 per basic and diluted share, in the June quarter of 2017 compared to net income of $19.8 million, or $0.37 per basic and diluted share, in the March quarter of 2017. Adjusted net income was $44.3 million, or $0.58 per adjusted share, in the June quarter of 2017 compared to adjusted net income of $38.8 million, or $0.52 per adjusted share, in the March quarter of 2017.
Revenues of $196.2 million in the June quarter of 2017 increased $12.1 million from $184.1 million in the March quarter of 2017 primarily due to higher average AUM in the June quarter.
Operating expenses of $129.7 million in the June quarter of 2017 increased $3.6 million from $126.1 million in the March quarter of 2017, primarily as a result of higher incentive compensation expense due to increased revenues and an increase in post-IPO equity compensation expense related to our January 2017 equity grant. The majority of our incentive compensation fluctuates with revenue. The increase was partially offset by a $2.4 million decrease in seasonal expenses. Seasonal expenses include employer funded retirement and health care contributions, payroll taxes, and non-employee director compensation.
GAAP operating margin was 33.9% for the June quarter of 2017 compared to 31.5% for the March quarter of 2017.
Adjusted operating margin was 37.1% for the June quarter of 2017 compared to 35.0% for the March quarter of 2017.
June Quarter of 2017 Compared to June Quarter of 2016
GAAP net income was $26.6 million, or $0.45 per basic and diluted share, in the June quarter of 2017 compared to net income of $18.3 million, or $0.38 per basic and diluted share, in the June quarter of 2016. Adjusted net income was $44.3 million, or $0.58 per adjusted share, in the June quarter of 2017 compared to adjusted net income of $39.8 million, or $0.53 per adjusted share, in the June quarter of 2016.
Revenues of $196.2 million in the June quarter of 2017 increased $15.4 million from $180.8 million in the June quarter of 2016 primarily due to higher average AUM in the June quarter of 2017, partially offset by a 1.8 basis point decline in our weighted average investment management fee. Our weighted average investment management fee decreased from 75 basis points for the June quarter of 2016 to 73 basis points for the June quarter of 2017 primarily due to the decline in the proportion of our total AUM managed through Artisan Funds.
Operating expenses of $129.7 million in the June quarter of 2017 increased $7.8 million from $121.9 million in the June quarter of 2016 as a result of higher incentive compensation expense due to increased revenues, increased post-IPO equity compensation expense, an increase in the number of employees, and costs incurred related to our eighth investment team founded in the fourth quarter of 2016. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in third-party intermediary expenses due to lower AUM sourced through third-party intermediaries that charge a fee for administrative and distribution services, a portion of which is borne by Artisan.
GAAP operating margin was 33.9% for the June quarter of 2017 compared to 32.6% for the June quarter of 2016.
Adjusted operating margin was 37.1% for the June quarter of 2017 compared to 36.6% for the June quarter of 2016.

Six months ended June 30, 2017 Compared to Six months ended June 30, 2016
GAAP net income was $46.4 million, or $0.86 per basic and diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to net income of $34.6 million, or $0.74 per basic and diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2016. Adjusted net income was $83.1 million, or $1.10 per adjusted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to adjusted net income of $77.4 million, or $1.04 per adjusted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2016.
Revenues of $380.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 increased $25.0 million from $355.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 primarily due to higher average AUM, partially offset by a 1.8 basis point decline in our weighted average investment management fee. Our weighted average investment management fee decreased from 75 basis points for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to 74 basis points for the six months ended June 30, 2017 primarily due to the decline in the proportion of our total AUM managed through Artisan Funds.
Operating expenses of $255.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 increased $14.2 million from $241.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 as a result of higher incentive compensation expense due to increased revenues, an increase in the number of employees, costs incurred related to our eighth investment team founded in the fourth quarter of 2016, increases in general and administrative and technology expenses, and increased post-IPO equity compensation expense. These increases were partially offset by decreases in third-party intermediary and pre-offering related equity compensation expenses. The decrease in third-party distribution expense resulted from lower AUM sourced through third-party intermediaries that charge a fee for administrative and distribution services, a portion of which is borne by Artisan.
GAAP operating margin was 32.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to 32.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2016.
Adjusted operating margin was 36.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to 36.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Capital Management

The Company’s management uses non-GAAP measures (referred to as adjusted measures) of net income and operating income to evaluate the profitability and efficiency of the underlying operations of the business and as a factor when considering net income available for distributions and dividends. These adjusted measures remove the impact of (1) pre-offering related compensation and (2) net gain (loss) on the tax receivable agreements (if any). These adjustments also remove the non-operational complexities of the Company’s structure by adding back non-controlling interests and assuming all income of Artisan Partners Holdings is allocated to the Company. Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide more meaningful information to analyze the Company’s profitability and efficiency between periods and over time. The Company has included these non-GAAP measures to provide investors with the same financial metrics used by management to manage the Company.
Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s non-GAAP measures may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even if similar terms are used to identify such measures. The Company’s non-GAAP measures are as follows:
Adjusted net income represents net income excluding the impact of (1) pre-offering related compensation and (2) net gain (loss) on the tax receivable agreements (if any). Adjusted net income also reflects income taxes assuming the vesting of all unvested Class A share-based awards and as if all outstanding limited partnership units of Artisan Partners Holdings had been exchanged for Class A common stock of APAM on a one-for-one basis. Assuming full vesting and exchange, all income of Artisan Partners Holdings is treated as if it were allocated to APAM, and the adjusted provision for income taxes represents an estimate of income tax expense at an effective rate reflecting assumed federal, state, and local income taxes. The estimated adjusted effective tax rate was 37.0% for the periods presented.
Adjusted net income per adjusted share is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by adjusted shares. The number of adjusted shares is derived by assuming the vesting of all unvested Class A share-based awards and the exchange of all outstanding limited partnership units of Artisan Partners Holdings for Class A common stock of APAM on a one-for-one basis.
Adjusted operating income represents the operating income of the consolidated company excluding pre-offering related compensation.
Adjusted operating margin is calculated by dividing adjusted operating income by total revenues.
Adjusted EBITDA represents income before income taxes, interest expense and depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude the impact of net income attributable to non-controlling interests, pre-offering related compensation, and net gain (loss) on the tax receivable agreements (if any).

Pre-offering related compensation includes the amortization of unvested Class B common units of Artisan Partners Holdings that were granted before and were unvested at the Company’s IPO, which closed on March 12, 2013. As of July 1, 2017, all Class B common units of Artisan Partners Holdings are vested.

Net gain (loss) on the tax receivable agreements represents the income or expense associated with the change in estimate of amounts payable under the tax receivable agreements entered into in connection with the Company’s initial public offering and related reorganization.

______________________________________ 
1 We measure the results of our composites, which represent the aggregate performance of all discretionary client accounts, including mutual funds, invested in the same strategy except those accounts with respect to which we believe client-imposed restrictions may have a material impact on portfolio construction and those accounts managed in a currency other than U.S. dollars (the results of these accounts, which represented approximately 12% of our assets under management at June 30, 2017, are maintained in separate composites, which are not presented in these materials). Returns for periods less than one year are not annualized.
2 Value-added is the amount in basis points by which the average annual gross composite return of each of our strategies has outperformed the broad-based market index most commonly used by our clients to compare the performance of the relevant strategy. Value-added for periods less than one year is not annualized. The Artisan High Income Strategy may hold loans and other security types that may not be included in the BofA Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index. At times, this causes material differences in relative performance.
3 Total Assets Under Management includes $33 million of assets managed in a privately offered strategy managed by the Credit Team.
