Consolidated Performance Highlights:
| |
• | Record revenue performance for the third quarter with consolidated revenue of $1.7 billion, compared with $1.5 billion last year, and consolidated fee revenue of $1.4 billion, up 15 percent from 2015, fueled by acquisition-driven and organic expansion. Strong RES fee revenue growth was led by Property & Facility Management, up $115 million or 49 percent; Project & Development Services, up $30 million or 25 percent; and Leasing, up $31 million or 8 percent. Capital Markets & Hotels revenue was up $17 million, or 10 percent, and performed well against a decline in global market volumes despite a tough comparable in third quarter 2015. |
| |
• | LaSalle generated solid performance, driven by continued expansion of annuity-based advisory fees. |
| |
• | Consolidated operating expenses for the third quarter were $1.6 billion, up 22 percent, compared with $1.4 billion last year. Consolidated fee-based operating expenses, excluding restructuring and acquisition charges, were $1.4 billion for the third quarter, compared with $1.1 billion last year, an increase of 22 percent, primarily driven by increases in headcount associated with investments in technology, data and acquisitions along with the expansion of annuity businesses. |
| |
• | Net income attributable to common shareholders for the quarter was $48 million, compared with $110 million last year. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $127 million, compared with $188 million last year, reflecting strong revenue growth balanced with a change in overall business mix and previously highlighted investments. Comparability was impacted by $94 million of equity earnings and incentive fees recognized last year primarily as a result of the sale of real estate assets on behalf of clients, against current quarter comparable activity of $11 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin calculated on a fee-revenue basis was 8.4 percent for the quarter, compared with 14.6 percent last year. |

JLL Reports Strong Third Quarter 2016 - Page 8
EMEA Performance Highlights:
| |
• | Total revenue for the quarter was $523 million, an increase of 28 percent from last year. Fee revenue for the quarter was $377 million, an increase of 24 percent from 2015. Fee revenue expansion compared with 2015 was most notable in Property & Facility Management, driven by the August 2016 acquisition of Integral UK Ltd. (“Integral”), partially offset by a decrease in leasing and capital markets activity in the UK. Fee revenue growth in the region was led by the UK, Germany, France and Poland. |
| |
• | Operating expenses for the quarter were $520 million, up 36 percent from $421 million in 2015. Fee-based operating expenses for the quarter, excluding restructuring and acquisition charges, were $373 million, up 35 percent from $307 million in 2015, primarily reflecting the impact of the Integral acquisition. |
| |
• | Operating income for the quarter was $3 million, down from $26 million in 2015. Adjusted EBITDA was $11 million for the quarter compared with $34 million in 2015. Adjusted EBITDA margin, calculated on a fee revenue basis, was 2.0 percent, compared with 10.2 percent in 2015. The decline in profitability was primarily driven by a decrease in capital markets and leasing volumes, UK capital markets performance fees earned in the third quarter of 2015 that did not recur in 2016 and additional contract expenses resulting from the wind down of operations in a non-core market. The decline in adjusted EBITDA margin also reflects the shift in service mix associated with the Integral acquisition. |

• | Total revenue for the quarter was $80 million, down 39 percent from last year, and included $66 million of advisory fees, $6 million of incentive fees and $8 million of transaction fees. |
| |
• | Incentive fees, which are variable in timing and amount, declined compared with the prior year. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, incentive fees were $72 million. |
| |
• | Equity earnings for the quarter were $5 million, as compared with $21 million in the prior year. Activity in both periods was primarily driven by net valuation increases of assets within the co-investment portfolio. |
| |
• | Operating expenses for the quarter were $72 million, down 20 percent from $92 million last year, reflecting changes to variable compensation to employees associated with the decreased incentive fee activity, partially offset by the impact of deferred compensation expense. Operating income for the quarter was $8 million, excluding equity earnings, a decrease from $42 million in 2015. |
| |
• | Adjusted EBITDA was $14 million for the quarter compared with $63 million last year, reflecting the lower levels of incentive fees and other income along with equity earnings for the quarter. |
| |
• | Capital raise was $1.0 billion for the quarter, bringing the total year to date to $4.8 billion. |
| |
• | Assets under management were at a record high of $59.7 billion as of September 30, 2016, up from $59.1 billion as of June 30, 2016, and $56.4 billion as of December 31, 2015. The net increase in assets under management resulted from $2.2 billion of acquisitions and $1.0 billion of net valuation increases, partially offset by $1.7 billion of dispositions and withdrawals and $0.9 billion of foreign currency decreases. |

JONES LANG LASALLE INCORPORATED
Financial Statement Notes
1. Consistent with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), certain vendor and subcontractor costs (“gross contract costs”) which are managed on certain client assignments in the Property & Facility Management and Project & Development Services business lines are presented on a gross basis in both Revenue and Operating expenses. Gross contract costs are excluded from Revenue and Operating expenses in determining “fee revenue” and “fee-based operating expenses,” respectively. Excluding these costs from Revenue and Operating expenses more accurately reflects how the company manages its expense base and its operating margins and, accordingly, is believed to be useful to investors and other external stakeholders for evaluating performance. However, fee revenue and fee-based operating expenses should not be considered as alternatives to Revenue and Operating expenses, respectively, determined in accordance with GAAP. Because fee revenue and fee-based operating expenses are not calculated under GAAP, the company’s fee revenue and fee-based operating expense measurements may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
The company defines adjusted operating income as Operating income excluding the impact of Restructuring and acquisition charges, mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) - net non-cash activity, and amortization of acquisition-related intangibles.
Restructuring and acquisition charges primarily consist of: (1) severance and employment-related charges, including those related to external service providers, incurred in conjunction with a structural business shift, which can be represented by a notable change in headcount or change in leadership or transformation of business processes; (2) acquisition and integration-related charges, including non-cash fair value adjustments to assets and liabilities recorded in purchase accounting such as earn-out liabilities and intangible assets; and (3) lease exit charges. As noted within Note 5, Restructuring and acquisition charges are excluded from segment operating results and therefore not a line item in the reconciliation from segment operating income to adjusted operating income and Adjusted EBITDA.
MSRs - net non-cash activity consists of the balances presented within Revenue composed of (a) the gains recognized by the company in conjunction with the origination and sale of mortgage loans, offset by (b) the amortization of the corresponding MSR intangible assets generated upon the aforementioned gain recognition over the period that net servicing income is projected to be received. Such gains and the corresponding MSR intangible assets are calculated as the present value of estimated cash inflows and outflows over the estimated mortgage servicing periods. This activity is more notable following the company’s acquisition of Oak Grove Capital during the fourth quarter of 2015 and is entirely reported within the Americas segment results.
Amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, primarily composed of the estimated fair value ascribed at closing of an acquisition to acquired management contracts, customer backlog and trade name, is more notable following the company's recent increase in acquisition activity. At the segment reporting level, this is the primary reconciling difference between segment operating income and adjusted operating income, except for the Americas segment, where MSRs - net non-cash activity is also excluded.
Although adjusted operating income is a non-GAAP financial measure, it is used extensively by management in normal business operations to develop budgets and forecasts and measure and reward performance against those budgets and forecasts, inclusive of the impact from capital expenditures reflected through depreciation expense, and is believed to be useful to investors and other external stakeholders as a supplemental measure of performance. However, adjusted operating income should not be considered as an alternative to operating income or net income determined in accordance with GAAP. Any measure that eliminates components of the company’s costs of operation and investment, such as acquisition and integration-related charges, has material limitations as a performance measure. In light of these limitations, management does not rely solely on adjusted operating income as a performance measure and also considers GAAP operating income results. Because adjusted operating income is not calculated in accordance with
GAAP, the company’s adjusted operating income may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
To conform to 2016 presentation, 2015 amounts were recast for adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter and year-to-date presentations to reflect the adjustments associated with MSRs - net non-cash activity and amortization of acquisition-related intangibles. However, no adjustment to revenue amounts presented throughout has been made to exclude MSRs - net non-cash activity.
Below are unaudited reconciliations of GAAP revenue to fee revenue, GAAP operating expenses to fee-based operating expenses and GAAP operating income to adjusted operating income:

2. | Net Restructuring and acquisition charges, MSRs - net non-cash activity, and amortization of acquisition-related intangibles are excluded from GAAP net income attributable to common shareholders to arrive at the company’s definition of adjusted net income used in the calculation of adjusted diluted earnings per share. |
Although adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measures, they are used extensively by management in normal business operations to develop budgets and forecasts and measure and reward performance against those budgets and forecasts, inclusive of the impact from capital expenditures reflected through depreciation expense, and are believed to be useful to investors and other external stakeholders as a supplemental measure of performance. However, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share should not be considered as alternatives to Net income and Diluted earnings per common share determined in accordance with GAAP. Any measure that eliminates components of the company’s costs of operation and investment, such as acquisition and integration-related charges, has material limitations as a performance measure. In light of these limitations, management does not rely solely on adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share as performance measures, but also considers GAAP results. Because adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are not calculated under GAAP, the company’s adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Calculated on a local currency basis, the results for the three and nine months ended 2016 include a $0.06 and $0.16 favorable impact, respectively, due to foreign exchange rate fluctuations as compared to a $0.23 and $0.45 unfavorable impact for the three and nine months ended 2015.
3. The company's definition of EBITDA attributable to common shareholders ("EBITDA") represents GAAP net income attributable to common shareholders before interest expense net of interest income, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA attributable to common shareholders ("Adjusted EBITDA") represents EBITDA further adjusted for certain items we do not consider directly indicative of our ongoing performance in the context of certain performance measurements, including restructuring and acquisition charges and MSRs - net non-cash activity.
Although Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures, they are used extensively by management in normal business operations to develop budgets and forecasts and measure and reward performance against those budgets and forecasts, exclusive of the impact from capital expenditures reflected through depreciation expense along with other components of the company’s capital structure. Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are believed to be useful to investors and other external stakeholders as supplemental measures of performance. EBITDA is used in the calculations of certain covenants related to the company’s revolving credit facility. However, Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net income determined in accordance with GAAP. Any measure that eliminates components of the company’s capital and investment structure and costs associated with operations, has material limitations as a performance measure. In light of these limitations, management does not rely solely on Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA as performance measures, but also considers GAAP results. Because Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are not calculated under GAAP, the company’s Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

4. In discussing our operating results, we refer to percentage changes and report Adjusted EBITDA margins in local currency, unless otherwise noted. Such amounts presented on a local currency basis are calculated by translating the current period results of our foreign operations to U.S. dollars using the foreign currency exchange rates from the comparative period. We believe this methodology provides a framework for assessing our performance and operations excluding the effect of foreign currency fluctuations. Because amounts presented on a local currency basis are not calculated under U.S. GAAP, they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
The following table reflects the unaudited reconciliation to local currency amounts for consolidated revenue, consolidated fee revenue, consolidated operating income, and consolidated adjusted operating income:

5. | Restructuring and acquisition charges are excluded from our measure of segment operating results, although they are included for consolidated reporting. For purposes of segment operating results, the allocation of restructuring and acquisition charges to the segments is not believed to be meaningful to investors. Accordingly, the performance of segment results has been evaluated without allocation of these charges. |
Restructuring and acquisition charges of $18.2 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2015 included $12.8 million related to the write-off of an indemnification asset which arose from prior period acquisition activity. This write-off was offset by the recognition of a tax benefit of an equal amount in the provision for income taxes, and therefore had no impact on net income.

9. | Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. The company adopted ASU 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (ASU 2015-03), and therefore ASU 2015-15, effective January 1, 2016, as a change in accounting principle. As retrospective application is required, the comparative balance sheet information has been adjusted; debt issuance costs of $18.1 million as of December 31, 2015, have been reclassified from Other assets to Credit facility ($15.4 million) and Long-term senior notes ($2.7 million). The adoption of ASU 2015-03 had no impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income or cash flows. |
