Gabelli Reports 2003 Second Quarter Results |
Earnings diluted to $0.38 per share vs. $0.46 per share |
| Rye, New York, July 29, 2003 — Gabelli Asset Management Inc. (NYSE: GBL) today reported results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2003. |
| Revenues for the second quarter of 2003 were $48 million down 16.5% from the $57.4 million generated in the second quarter of 2002. Operating income fell 32.7% to $16.4 million in the 2003 quarter versus $24.4 million in the 2002 quarter. Net income for the second quarter was $11.6 million or $0.38 per diluted share in the 2003 quarter compared to $13.9 million or $0.46 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. |
| For the six months ended June 30, 2003 revenues were $94.0 million off 18.6% from prior year to date revenues of $115.4 million. Operating income of $32.7 million was down 34.2% from $49.8 million in the first six months of 2002. Net income in the first half of 2003 was $20.9 million or $0.69 per diluted share versus $29.3 million or $0.97 per diluted share in the first half of 2002. |
| Our comparative revenues and operating results mostly track assets under management. Average total assets under management were $21.3 billion in the second quarter of 2003 down 14.0% from average total assets of $24.8 billion in the 2002 quarter. At June 30, 2003 we had $22.5 billion in total assets under management, 12.2% ahead of total assets of $20.1 billion at the beginning of the quarter but 3.0% lower than the $23.2 billion reported at June 30, 2002. During the quarter, cash inflow to our equity products was $70 million. This was offset by cash outflows from our fixed income products totaling $183 million, resulting in a net cash outflow of $113 million. |
| Investment advisory and incentive fees, which comprise about 85% of total revenues, were down 15.7% and 17.4% for the quarter and six months, respectively, due to the lower level of managed assets in mutual fund, institutional and high net worth products. |
| A bright spot for both the quarter and six-month periods has been our alternative products where incentive fees based on performance increased sharply over the prior year periods. |
| We also note that revenues from our GAMCO institutional and high net worth business are based on assets under management at the beginning of the quarter and did not reflect the improvement in the equity markets during the second quarter. Assets under management in our GAMCO separate accounts at June 30, 2003 were $10.8 billion, 17.0% ahead of the $9.2 billion at March 31, 2003 and $11.1 billion June 30, 2002. |
| Compensation costs, which are largely variable, declined 6.4% and 7.4% for the second quarter and first six months of 2003, respectively, but rose as a percentage of revenues reflecting initial inclusion of two acquisitions (Woodland and Grove) as well as our decision to add analysts and client service professionals to our roster. In addition, we incurred $0.4 million from expensing of stock options issued during 2003. Management fee expense, a totally variable cost based on pre-tax profits, declined 15.5% for the quarter and 28.0% for the first six months of 2003 to $2.1 million and $3.8 million, respectively. |
| Investment income increased $4.9 million to $6.1 million during the second quarter of 2003 and $4.5 million to $7.8 million for the first half versus their comparable 2002 periods. Interest expense rose 13.2% during the 2003 quarter to $3.6 million compared to $3.2 million in the prior year quarter, due to the issuance in May 2003 of $100 million of 5.5% senior notes. The effective tax rate in both 2003 and 2002 was 37.6%. The increase in minority interest expense for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 versus the prior year periods is largely the result of increased earnings from our alternative investment products at our 92% owned subsidiary, Gabelli Securities, Inc. |
Investment and Business Highlights
| We continue to position ourselves for future revenue and earnings growth with new product offerings, new marketing channels, enhanced client service and improved operations infrastructure. We are adding equity research analysts, portfolio management and marketing professionals to the organization. Our strong financial resources enable us to pursue strategic additions to our investment business: |
| • | In May, Standard & Poor’s affirmed Gabelli’s investment grade credit rating. |
| • | Also, in May, we issued $100 million of ten year 5.5% senior notes with the proceeds to be used for general corporate purposes. |
| • | We announced an agreement with Cascade Investment LLC, the private investment firm of Microsoft Corporation Chairman Bill Gates, to lower the interest rate from 6% to 5% and conversion price from $53 per share to $52 per share, and extend the put option on the $100 million convertible note issued by Gabelli to Cascade. If this note is converted, Cascade would own approximately 6% of GBL’s common stock. |
| • | Thomas H. Mahoney joined us as head of the firm’s Alternative Investment Group. Originally an investment banker, Tom has a broad institutional background having built and managed alternative investment businesses at Merrill Lynch, Paine Webber, Deutsche Bank and CDC and will be responsible for the ongoing development, structuring and global marketing of our alternative products. |
| • | Our portfolio of global hedge fund offerings was augmented by two new strategic product launches as we continue to vertically leverage our core value skill sets into new product structures and distribution channels. |
| | a) | We were selected as co-investment manager for GAM GAMCO Hedge Investments Inc., further extending our long-term relationship with Global Asset Management a subsidiary of Zurich based UBS AG. The fund, introduced in June, has had strong demand from non-U.S. investors seeking exposure to our distinctive event-driven, value style in a U.S. long/short portfolio context. |
| | b) | We started trading in our energy sector fund on June 2nd. This offering continues our building out of the GAMA Select family of absolute return strategies which offer our clients a way to capitalize on Gabelli’s global sector research. |
| • | The Ned Davis Research Asset Allocation Fund was launched on March 31st, joining the Gabelli family of funds as a member of the Gabelli Non-Market Correlated Mutual Fund Group. The Fund is a diversified, registered investment company whose proprietary quantitative asset allocation, stock selection and bond duration methodologies seek to achieve its long-tem capital appreciation objective. |
| • | GAMCO hosted its eighteenth annual meeting in May at the Waldorf Astoria. Over six hundred high net worth and institutional clients and guests were present to induct honorees Martin Benante of Curtiss-Wright, Richard Bready of Nortek and John Madigan of Tribune to GAMCO’s Management Hall of Fame. The following day, a number of corporate managements were on hand to present their investment case to shareholders at the client investment seminar. |
| • | The Gabelli Blue Chip Value Fund, managed by Barbara G. Marcin, CFA, was ranked the #1 fund in its category the for the one year period ended June 30, 2003 among 389 large cap value funds by Lipper Inc. |
| • | On April 22nd we hosted a conference on the Role of Dividends in Investment Decisions at the Museum of Television & Radio in New York City. This is the fourth in a series of timely discussions of topics that impact investor strategy: |
| | — | In 1997, we started with a debate on "Active vs. Passive Stock Selection" with Professor Roger F. Murray debating Professor Burton G. Malkiel. |
| | — | In 1998, following the Long Term Capital Management debacle, we hosted a meeting on “The Role of Hedge Funds as a Way of Generating Absolute Returns”. |
| | — | In early 2001, we hosted a symposium extolling the “Virtues of Value Investing”, and helped investors start come to the conclusion that value investing wasn’t dead. |
| | — | This quarter’s debate focused on “Taxable versus Non-Taxable Issues” and included R. Glenn Hubbard, who played a major role in formulating current tax policy while serving as Chairman of the President’s Council of Economic Advisors. |
| | Despite the appearance of this tax reform being all but dead when we scheduled this debate in early March, by April 22nd the issue was front-page news. As the Wall Street Journal reported, “Capitol Hill isn’t the only place where President Bush’s proposed dividend tax cut is getting the third degree, as Gabelli Asset Management gathered a gaggle of academics, economists strategists and stock pickers in Manhattan to debate the value and potential impact of the Bush’s administration’s proposal to end the double taxation of dividends.” Dividends are a timely consideration this year not just because of the tax cut, but because in a world of single digit or low double digit returns, dividends again matter, and are an important component of return. |
| • | As part of our commitment to broaden our equity research universe, Gabelli & Company, Inc.: |
| | a) | Hosted its 1st Annual Dental Conference on June 3rd in New York. Upcoming research events include our 9th Annual Aircraft Supplier Conference to be held September 4-5th in New York, our 27th Annual Automotive Aftermarket Symposium to be held in Las Vegas and our 14th Pump Valve and Motor Conference in February. |
| | b) | Joshua W. Fenton, a ten-year member of the Gabelli equity research team, was appointed Director of Buy-Side Research for GAMCO. |
| | c) | Barry L. Lucas, a Wall Street veteran with 20 years experience, joined Gabelli & Company, Inc., our institutional research company, as a senior broadcasting and publishing sell-side analyst following more than 40 companies. |
| We initiated a stock buyback program in March of 1999. Since that time, 1,127,844 Class A shares have been repurchased at an average cost of $25.23 per share, including 7,417 shares in 2003. |
| On June 5th, in our continuing commitment to enhance shareholder value, we commenced a self-tender offer to purchase up to 800,000 shares of our outstanding Class A common stock under a modified “Dutch Auction.” However, our tender offer turned out to be a non-starter. We thought we would provide liquidity for any holder of our shares who needed to sell, but the paperwork took longer than expected. With a rising market, particularly for small growth companies, coupled with speculation that Neuberger Berman was to be bought by Lehman, the public share price of all publicly traded money management companies, including our own, rose. At least we tried. Next! |
Financial Strength and Flexibility |
| Our balance sheet strengthened in the first half, with cash and liquid investments totaling over $646 million at June 30, 2003 versus $518 million at December 31, 2002. Our debt consists of a $100 million ten-year convertible note, $100 million 5.5% senior notes, and $84.2 million of mandatory convertible securities, which will be exchanged in February 2005 for approximately two million Class A common shares. |
| Stockholders’equity, including the mandatory convertible securities as equity, was $431.4 million at June 30, 2003 compared with $406.3 million at December 31, 2002 and $395.0 million at June 30, 2002. We include mandatory convertible securities as equity since this instrument will be exchanged for common shares on February 2005. We repurchased 15,300 shares of these mandatory convertible securities during the first half of 2003, bringing the total shares repurchased since May 2002 to 233,500 at a total investment of $5.1 million. There remains an additional 466,500 shares to be repurchased under this program. |
| The overall capital markets unfolded in the second quarter, much along the scenario we painted in our first quarter earnings release — “Outlook — Bleak to Bright.” |
| As we look out over the balance of the year, we echo many of the comments we made both in our first quarter report as well as in our Annual Report (see our website: www.gabelli.com) ... “Investors are ‘back to basics.’ President Bush, as a precondition for his re-election, will pull out all the stops. Lower oil prices, rising confidence, record fiscal stimulus, and lower interest rates should spark a pick up in the economy, especially in the fourth quarter and first half of 2004. The stock market generally anticipates economic recovery by six months. |
| | — | Our stock selection process, on the value side of Gabelli, driven by our proprietary company and industry research, continues to find fundamentally attractive investment opportunities selling at discounts to private market value with catalysts to trigger appreciation. |
| | — | We expect global merger, acquisition and restructuring activity to continue to increase.” |
