GAMCO Reports Record Second Quarter Earnings
Restates 2006 earnings from $2.40 per share to $2.49 per share
Reports Record AUM of $30.6 Billion
Rye, New York, August 9, 2007 – GAMCO Investors, Inc. (GAMCO) (NYSE: GBL) today announced second quarter 2007 earnings. The second quarter 2007 net income was $18.0 million, or $0.63 per fully diluted share, about double the restated $8.9 million, or $0.31 per fully diluted share in 2006 ($0.30 per fully diluted share as previously restated). The restated second quarter 2006 results reflect a previously-reported special charge of $0.27 per fully diluted share.
During the second quarter of 2007, we elected to terminate a compensation arrangement for one of our closed-end funds that resulted in a one-time $0.08 reduction in fully diluted earnings per share. Additionally, GAMCO has filed a Form 10-K/A restating the reported 2006 earnings, increasing them to $2.49 per fully diluted share from $2.40 per fully diluted share, to reflect the reversal of certain previously-accrued expenses for compensation in investment partnerships.
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, net income was $37.2 million versus a restated $27.9 million in the comparable 2006 period and fully diluted earnings per share were $1.30 versus a restated $0.96 in the comparable 2006 period. The six-month 2006 results were after a special charge of $0.27 per fully diluted share and after the $0.02 per fully diluted share reversal of the previously-accrued investment partnerships compensation expenses, as filed on our Form 10-K/A, disclosed above.
During the six months ended June 30, 2007, net income was crimped by $0.12 per fully diluted share as a result of the $0.08 per fully diluted share decrease for the second quarter 2007 as mentioned above and $0.04 per fully diluted share impact that was reflected in first quarter 2007 for the following one-time charges:
| - | $0.03 per fully diluted share launch expenses of our new closed-end fund, Gabelli Global Deal Fund; and |
| - | a half cent per fully diluted share in charitable gifts. |
Assets Under Management – Record $30.6 Billion at June 30th
Assets Under Management (AUM) were a record $30.6 billion as of June 30, 2007, 4.3% higher than March 31, 2007 AUM of $29.4 billion and 14.4% greater than June 30, 2006 AUM of $26.8 billion. Equity assets under management were a record $29.9 billion on June 30, 2007, 4.2% more than March 31, 2007 equity assets of $28.7 billion and 15.7% above the $25.9 billion on June 30, 2006.
| - | Our closed-end equity funds reached a record AUM of $6.4 billion on June 30, 2007, up 3.6% from $6.2 billion on March 31, 2007 and 21.9% higher than the $5.3 billion on June 30, 2006. |
| - | Our open-end equity fund AUM were $9.5 billion on June 30, 2007, a 7.6% gain from $8.9 billion on March 31, 2007 and 22.2% from $7.8 billion at June 30, 2006. |
| - | Our institutional and high net worth business had $13.5 billion in separately managed accounts on June 30, 2007. While up only a nominal 2.1% from $13.2 billion on March 31st, we do note that – as previously disclosed – on June 22nd we were displaced as a subadvisor to a mutual fund entity as a result of its sale. We managed $551 million as of March 31, 2007 for this account. |
| - | Our Investment Partnerships AUM were $486 million on June 30, 2007 versus $477 million on March 31, 2007 and $536 million on June 30, 2006. |
| - | We receive incentive and fulcrum fees for our investment partnership assets, certain institutional client assets, preferred issues of our closed-end funds and our new closed-end fund launched in January 2007, the Gabelli Global Deal Fund. As of June 30, 2007, assets generating performance-based fees were $3.6 billion, an increase of 3.8% versus the $3.5 billion on March 31, 2007 and a 19.5% increase over the $3.0 billion on June 30, 2006. |
- | Fixed income AUM, primarily money market mutual funds, totaled $705 million on June 30, 2007 compared to AUM of $640 million on March 31, 2007 and AUM of $918 million on June 30, 2006. |
Financial Results
In the first quarter of 2006, the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 46R (“FIN 46R”) and Emerging Issue Task Force 04-5 (“EITF 04-5”) required the consolidation of our investment partnerships and offshore funds managed by our subsidiaries into our consolidated financial statements. However, since we amended the agreements of certain investment partnerships and an offshore fund on March 31, 2006, FIN 46R and EITF 04-5 only required us to consolidate these entities on our consolidated condensed statement of income for the first quarter 2006. Accordingly, to provide a better understanding of our core results and trends, GAMCO has provided the 2006 results before adjusting for FIN 46R and EITF 04-5. These results are not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to results presented in accordance with GAAP is presented in Table V.
Restatement
GAMCO has filed a Form 10-K/A restating prior year results to reflect the reversal of certain previously-accrued expenses for investment partnerships. The net effect on a per share basis (diluted) was:
| | 2006 |
EPS | 1st Quarter | 2nd Quarter | 3rd Quarter | 4th Quarter | Full Year |
Restated | $0.64 | $0.31 | $0.60 | $0.94 | $2.49 |
Reported | $0.63 | $0.30 | $0.59 | $0.88 | $2.40 |
Revenues
For the second quarter of 2007, investment advisory fees were $57.7 million, an increase of $4.1 million or 7.6% compared to the revenues in 2006 before adjusting for FIN 46R and EITF 04-5:
| - | Our closed-end funds revenues surged 19.3% to $12.8 million in the second quarter 2007 from $10.8 million in 2006, driven by investment returns and the launch of a new fund. |
| - | Open-end mutual funds revenues grew 15.7% to $23.3 million from $20.1 million in second quarter 2006, primarily due to investment performance. |
| - | Institutional and high net worth separate accounts revenues decreased 2.4% to $20.3 million from $20.7 million in second quarter 2006, predominantly the result of a shift in the recognition of performance fees. |
| - | Investment Partnership revenues were $1.3 million, down 31.2%, or $0.6 million below revenues in 2006, before adjusting for FIN 46R and EITF 04-5. A decrease in AUM led to lower management fees as well as a decline in incentive fees. |
Commission revenues from our institutional research business, Gabelli & Company, Inc., were $4.0 million in the second quarter 2007, up 42.7% from the prior year. The increase was due to higher average per share revenue due to changes in trade mix as well as to an increase in overall trading volume.
Mutual fund distribution fees and other income were $6.6 million for the second quarter 2007, an increase of $1.4 million, or 25.6%, from $5.2 million in second quarter 2006.
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, investment advisory fees were $114.2 million, an increase of $10.2 million or 9.8% compared to the revenues in 2006 before adjusting for FIN 46R and EITF 04-5:
| - | Our closed-end funds revenues surged 17.3% to $24.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $21.0 million in 2006, driven by investment returns and the launch of two funds. |
| - | Open-end mutual funds revenues grew 11.0% to $44.7 million from $40.2 million in 2006 as a result of higher average AUM. |
| - | Larger performance fees contributed to institutional and high net worth separate account revenues increasing 4.3% to $41.9 million from $40.1 million reported in 2006. |
| - | Investment Partnership revenues were $3.1 million versus $3.6 million in 2006 before adjusting for FIN 46R and EITF 04-5. |
Commission revenues from our institutional research business, Gabelli & Company, Inc., were $8.1 for the six months ended June 30, 2007, up 26.3% from the prior year’s comparable amount of $6.4 million. The increase was due to higher overall trading volume as well as to an increase in average per share revenue due to changes in trade mix.
Mutual fund distribution fees and other income were $12.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $2.0 million, or 19.2%, from $10.6 million from the 2006 period.
Operating Margin
The operating margin before management fee was 36.3% for the second quarter of 2007 compared to 37.6% in the prior year period. The second quarter 2007 operating margin was impacted by a one-time charge relating to the termination of a closed-end fund compensation agreement while the 2006 quarter included a reserve relating to a proposed resolution of a regulatory matter. Including these items, the second quarter 2007 reported operating margin was 30.2% versus a reported 18.3% in the comparable 2006 period.
Other Income / Expense
Total other income (which represents primarily investment income in our proprietary investments), net of interest expense, was $14.0 million for the second quarter 2007 compared to $7.0 million in 2006.
Total other income, net of interest expense, was $24.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $18.1 million in 2006 before adjusting for FIN 46R and EITF 04-5.
The management fee for the three months ended June 30, 2007 was $3.4 million versus $1.8 million in 2006.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2007 was 41.2% as compared to the prior year quarter’s effective rate of 44.8%. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, the effective tax rate was 38.9% as compared to 39.5% in the prior year’s comparable period.

The note matures in August 2011, bears interest at the annual rate of 6%, and has a conversion price of $53 per GAMCO share. Should Cascade Investment LLC convert its note, they would own approximately 11% of GAMCO's Class A Common Stock. |

Financial Highlights
Statement of Financial Condition – Liquidity and Flexibility
We ended the quarter with approximately $708.7 million in adjusted cash and investments, which is net of $7.4 million of cash and investments held by our consolidated investment partnerships. This included approximately $140.4 million of our investments in The Gabelli Dividend & Income Trust, The Gabelli Global Deal Fund, Westwood Holdings Group, various Gabelli and GAMCO open-end mutual funds as well as other investments classified as available for sale securities. Our debt consisted of $100 million of 5.5% senior notes due May 2013 and a $50.0 million 6% convertible note due August 2011. We had cash and investments in securities, net of debt and minority interest, of $19.62 per share on June 30, 2007 compared with $17.13 per share on December 31, 2006 and $15.52 per share on June 30, 2006.
Stockholders' equity was $490.8 million or $17.44 per share on June 30, 2007 compared to $451.6 million or $15.99 per share on December 31, 2006 and $402.4 million or $14.23 per share on June 30, 2006.
Shareholder Compensation
Dividends
In addition to the regular quarterly dividend of $0.03 per share, which was declared on May 9, 2007 and paid on June 28, 2007, subsequent to the end of our quarter, the Board of Directors declared a special cash dividend of $1.00 per share paid on July 30, 2007 to holders of record on July 23, 2007.
Stock Buyback
Shares outstanding on June 30, 2007 were 28.1 million, slightly below March 31, 2007 shares of 28.2 million and approximately 0.5% lower than 28.3 million shares outstanding on June 30, 2006. Fully diluted shares outstanding for the first quarter of 2007 were 29.1 million, 0.1 million below the first quarter 2007 fully diluted shares outstanding and 1.2% below our fully diluted shares of 29.5 million for the second quarter 2006.
Through June 30, 2007, we repurchased 4,783,858 class A common shares at an average investment of $39.58 per share since our buyback program was initiated in March 1999. In the second quarter of 2007, we repurchased 55,600 shares at an average investment of $49.35 per share. The total amount of shares currently available for repurchase under the current authorization is approximately 934,000 shares at June 30, 2007.
NOTES ON NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
| A. | Cash and investments as adjusted have been computed as follows: (in millions) |
| | 6/30/06 | 12/31/06 | 6/30/07 | |
| Cash and cash equivalents | $116.9 | $138.1 | $104.7 | |
| Investments (marketable securities) | 455.4 | 479.2 | 458.8 | |
| Total cash and investments (marketable securities) | 572.3 | 617.3 | 563.5 | |
| Net amounts receivable/(payable) from/to brokers | 32.1 | 17.3 | 12.2 | |
| Adjusted cash and investments (marketable securities) | 604.4 | 634.6 | 575.7 | |
| Investments (available for sale) | 86.7 | 102.0 | 140.4 | |
| Total adjusted cash and investments | $691.1 | $736.6 | $716.1 | |
We believe adjusted cash and investments is a more useful measure of the company’s liquidity for analytical purposes.
Net amounts receivable/(payable) from/to brokers reflect cash and cash equivalents held with brokers and cash payable for securities purchased and recorded on a trade date basis for which settlement occurs subsequent to period end.
| B. | Operating income before management fee expense is used by management for purposes of evaluating its business operations. We believe this measure is useful in illustrating the operating results of the Company as management fee expense is based on pre-tax income, which includes non-operating items including investment gains and losses from the company’s proprietary investment portfolio and interest expense. The reconciliation of operating income before management fee expense to operating income is provided in Table V. |
| C. | Beginning January 1, 2006, the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 46R (“FIN 46R”) and Emerging Issue Task Force 04-5 (“EITF 04-5”) require consolidation of the majority of our investment partnerships and offshore funds managed by our subsidiaries into our consolidated financial statements. However, since we amended the agreements of certain investment partnerships and an offshore fund on March 31, 2006, FIN46R and EITF 04-5 only required us to consolidate these entities on our consolidated condensed statement of income for the first quarter 2006. We were not required to consolidate these entities on our consolidated condensed statement of financial condition at March 31, 2006. In addition, these partnerships and offshore funds, for which the agreements were amended, are not required to be consolidated within our consolidated condensed statement of income or on our consolidated condensed statement of financial condition in future periods as long as we continue to not maintain a direct or indirect controlling financial interest. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the consolidation of these entities had no impact on net income but did affect the classification of income between operating and other income. As a result, in Table V, we have also provided our results before adjusting for FIN 46R and EITF 04-5. |
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
Our disclosure and analysis in this press release contain some forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements give our current expectations or forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements because they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts.

In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, future performance of our products, expenses, the outcome of any legal proceedings, and financial results. Although we believe that we are basing our expectations and beliefs on reasonable assumptions within the bounds of what we currently know about our business and operations, there can be no assurance that our actual results will not differ materially from what we expect or believe. Some of the factors that could cause our actual results to differ from our expectations or beliefs include, without limitation: the adverse effect from a decline in the securities markets; a decline in the performance of our products; a general downturn in the economy; changes in government policy or regulation; changes in our ability to attract or retain key employees; and unforeseen costs and other effects related to legal proceedings or investigations of governmental and self-regulatory organizations. We also direct your attention to any more specific discussions of risk contained in our Form 10-K and other public filings. We are providing these statements as permitted by the Private Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
