SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
U.S. GAAP Results and Commentary
We adopted new revenue recognition guidance effective as of January 1, 2018. As a result of adopting the new guidance, we now present client reimbursed deal expenses on a gross basis on the consolidated statements of operations, rather than the previous presentation of netting deal expenses within revenues. This change did not impact our pre-tax operating income, however the financial measures for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2018 were impacted as follows:
• | Higher net revenues, |
• | Decreased compensation ratio, |
• | Higher non-compensation expenses, |
• | Higher non-compensation ratio, and |
• | Lower pre-tax operating margin. |
The new guidance is applied prospectively in our consolidated financial statements from January 1, 2018 and reported financial information for historical comparable periods has not been revised.
The following summarizes our results on a U.S. GAAP basis:

N/M — Not meaningful
The compensation ratio of 63.7% in the fourth quarter of 2018 decreased compared to the sequential quarter primarily due to higher revenues. The compensation ratio in the current quarter and year declined compared to the respective prior year periods due to lower acquisition-related compensation, and the impact of presenting client reimbursed deal expenses on a gross basis, as required under the new accounting guidance. This change in accounting guidance resulted in a 180 bps and 210 bps decrease to the compensation ratio in the current quarter and year, respectively.
Non-compensation expenses of $49.5 million in the current quarter were consistent on a sequential basis and increased compared to the fourth quarter of 2017 primarily due to new accounting guidance requiring the gross presentation of client reimbursed deal expenses. Non-compensation expenses of $196.7 million in 2018 declined compared to the prior year which included a $114.4 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge associated with our asset management segment. This decline was offset in part by the impact of presenting deal-related expenses on a gross basis.
2
Net income of $18.2 million and earnings of $1.21 per diluted common share in the fourth quarter of 2018 declined compared to the sequential quarter despite higher revenues, due to increased income tax expense related to a deferred tax write-off in the United Kingdom. Our net loss in the fourth quarter of 2017 was attributed to remeasuring our deferred tax assets arising from the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. This resulted in a non-cash write-off of $54.2 million of our deferred tax assets. In 2018, net income of $57.0 million and earnings of $3.72 increased compared to the prior year which was adversely impacted by the $114.4 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge and the $54.2 million non-cash write-off related to the remeasurement of our deferred tax assets.
Non-GAAP Results and Commentary
Throughout the press release we present financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP").
The non-GAAP financial measures include adjustments to exclude:
(1) revenues and expenses related to noncontrolling interests,
(2) amortization of intangible assets related to acquisitions,
(3) compensation and non-compensation expenses from acquisition-related agreements,
(4) goodwill impairment charges,
(5) the impact from remeasuring deferred tax assets resulting from changes to the U.S. federal tax code,
(6) the impact of a deferred tax valuation allowance, and
(7) the impact of the annual special cash dividend paid in the first quarter of 2018 resulting in an undistributed loss on earnings per diluted common share.
Management believes that presenting results and measures on this adjusted basis alongside U.S. GAAP measures provides the most meaningful basis for comparison of its operating results across periods, and enhances the overall understanding of our current financial performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our core operating results. The non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For a detailed explanation of the adjustments made to the corresponding U.S. GAAP measures, see "Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to Selected Summary Financial Information."

The adjusted compensation ratio of 61.5% for the current quarter was slightly lower compared to the sequential quarter due to higher adjusted net revenues. The adjusted compensation ratios for the fourth quarter and full year of 2018 were reduced by 170 bps and 210 bps, respectively, due to the impact of presenting client reimbursed deal expenses on a gross basis. In the fourth quarter of 2017, we recognized additional compensation expense resulting from a change in the retirement provisions of our performance share unit awards, which increased the adjusted compensation ratio for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2017 by 200 bps and 50 bps, respectively.
Adjusted non-compensation expenses in the current quarter and year include deal-related expenses of $6.2 million and $25.1 million, respectively, a result of the change in accounting guidance requiring the gross presentation of client reimbursed deal expenses. Adjusted non-compensation expenses in 2018 also include $3.8 million of restructuring costs incurred primarily related to headcount reductions in our sales and trading and assets management businesses. Excluding these items, adjusted non-compensation expenses were $39.3 million for the current quarter and $151.9 million for the current year.
Adjusted net income of $29.9 million and adjusted earnings per share of $1.99 in the current quarter increased compared to the sequential quarter reflecting operating leverage driven by higher revenues. Adjusted net income and earnings in the current quarter increased compared to the fourth quarter of 2017 primarily due to the lower corporate federal tax rate. On a full year basis, adjusted net income of $93.7 million and adjusted earnings per share of $6.13 declined compared to the prior year primarily due to lower adjusted net revenues, offset in part by the lower corporate federal tax rate.
BUSINESS SEGMENT RESULTS

Advisory services revenues of $128.1 million in the current quarter, up 13% sequentially and 15% over the year-ago period, represent the strongest quarter of 2018 driven by more completed engagements and broad-based contributions from our industry groups. Revenues in the quarter reflect strong relative performance in a market where the number of completed transactions was down. For the year, advisory services revenues of $394.1 million declined 11% from a record 2017. The number of completed transactions increased from the prior year, however revenues declined as 2017 was elevated by several large fees. Our advisory pipeline remains strong heading into 2019.
Equity financing revenues of $22.3 million decreased 31% and 22% compared to the sequential quarter and year-ago period, respectively, driven by fewer completed transactions. Market-wide activity in the quarter was down meaningfully driven by increased volatility and a sell-off in the equity markets. For the year, equity financing revenues of $122.2 million represent one of our strongest years in nearly a decade. We were bookrunner on 68% of our deals reflecting the strength of our franchise. Consistent with the market, our deal activity was concentrated in healthcare, our strongest industry sector.
Debt financing revenues of $27.8 million, up 33% compared to the third quarter of 2018, reflect the strongest quarter of the year as we executed on our pipeline and benefited from our diversified platform. Revenues in the current quarter were down 17% compared to the fourth quarter of 2017, and on a full year basis, debt financing revenues of $73.3 million declined 22% from the prior year. Municipal market issuance volumes in 2018 were down 24% compared to 2017 driven by an acceleration of financings in December 2017 before the federal tax law changes became effective in 2018. Our performance during the year has continued to build momentum from historically low levels in the start of 2018, albeit down from a robust 2017.
Equity institutional brokerage revenues of $22.5 million were up 27% compared to the sequential quarter driven by an increase in payments received for equity research, and higher commissions from client trading resulting from increased market volatility. Revenues for the year of $77.5 million declined 5% from 2017, though market volumes and volatility were up. Global market participants are shifting trade execution to low-touch providers and paying for research services separately, a result of the MiFID II regulation in the European Union that became effective at the beginning of the year. We believe this dynamic will continue to exacerbate the seasonality in our equity institutional brokerage revenues as we typically receive larger research payments in the fourth quarter.
Fixed income institutional brokerage revenues of $14.6 million were down 19% and 44% compared to the sequential quarter and year-ago period, respectively. In the fourth quarter of 2017, we recorded higher trading gains as we took advantage of trading opportunities in the municipal market created by volatility stemming from record new issuance volumes. Revenues of $67.6 million for the year declined 24% compared to 2017. Lower trading opportunities, muted client demand, and our meaningful exposure to municipals negatively impacted our results. In 2018, we focused on minimizing risk and reducing inventory levels throughout the year to coincide with the market opportunity and our return thresholds.
Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2018 were $181.7 million, up 3% compared to the third quarter of 2018 primarily due to higher compensation expenses arising from increased revenues. Operating expenses in the current quarter decreased 15% compared to the fourth quarter of 2017 primarily due to lower acquisition-related compensation expenses. Operating expenses of $663.7 million in 2018 decreased 10% compared to 2017 driven by lower compensation expenses arising from decreased revenues, offset in part by higher non-compensation expenses resulting from new accounting guidance requiring the gross presentation of client reimbursed deal expenses.
Segment pre-tax operating margin was 15.5% in the current quarter compared to 14.1% in the third quarter of 2018 and 4.8% in the year-ago period. Segment pre-tax operating margin improved on a sequential basis primarily due to higher revenues. Despite higher revenues compared to the year-ago period, segment pre-tax operating margin in the fourth quarter of 2017 was impacted by higher acquisition-related compensation and the recognition of additional compensation expense related to a change in the retirement provisions of our performance share units. Segment pre-tax operating margin of 10.5% in 2018 improved slightly compared to 10.2% in 2017.

AUM of $5.8 billion at the end of the fourth quarter of 2018 was down 21% and 22% compared to the sequential and prior year quarter, respectively. The decrease in AUM during the current quarter was driven by significant market depreciation resulting from the declining equity markets.
Net revenues of $9.3 million decreased 20% compared to the sequential and year-ago quarter, respectively, due to lower management fees resulting from lower average AUM. Net revenues of $43.0 million in 2018 decreased 18% compared to 2017 due to lower management fees from lower average AUM and a lower effective yield driven by the mix of our equity products.
Operating expenses for the current quarter were $10.8 million, down 3% and 12% compared to the sequential quarter and year-ago period, respectively. The decrease compared to both of the prior periods primarily resulted from lower compensation expense arising from decreased revenues. On a full year basis, operating expenses of $45.9 million in 2018 declined compared to 2017 which included a $114.4 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge.
Segment pre-tax operating margin was a negative 15.3% in the current quarter and a negative 6.7% for the year due to reduced revenues and intangible amortization expense. Segment pre-tax operating margin in 2017 was impacted by the non-cash goodwill impairment charge.

Adjusted segment pre-tax operating margin was 18.9% in the fourth quarter of 2018 compared to 17.7% in the third quarter of 2018 driven by higher adjusted net revenues. Adjusted segment pre-tax operating margin of 17.4% in the year-ago period was impacted by additional compensation expense related to the change in retirement provisions of our performance share units, despite higher revenues. For the year, adjusted segment pre-tax operating margin of 15.4% decreased compared to 2017 primarily due to lower adjusted net revenues. The new accounting guidance requiring the gross presentation of client reimbursed deal expenses, which totaled $25.1 million for the year, reduced the adjusted segment pre-tax margin by 60 bps in 2018.

The differences between our operating expenses and pre-tax operating margin on a U.S. GAAP basis, and our adjusted operating expenses and adjusted pre-tax operating margin on a non-GAAP basis, are due to intangible asset amortization and goodwill impairment charges.

TAXES
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which was enacted on December 22, 2017, reduced the corporate federal tax rate from 35% to 21% effective as of January 1, 2018. This resulted in a one-time non-cash write-off of $54.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2017 as we remeasured our deferred tax assets based on the lower enacted rate.
For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2018, we recorded a tax benefit of $0.3 million and $7.1 million, respectively, related to restricted stock vesting at values greater than the grant price. Excluding the impact of this tax benefit, our non-GAAP effective tax rate was 26.7% and 25.7% for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2018, respectively.
CAPITAL
Dividends
On February 1, 2019, our Board of Directors declared a special cash dividend on the company's common stock of $1.01 per share to be paid on March 15, 2019, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on February 25, 2019. Including this special cash dividend and the regular quarterly dividends totaling $1.50 per share paid during 2018, we will have returned $2.51 per share, or approximately 40% of our fiscal year 2018 adjusted net income, to shareholders.
On February 1, 2019, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on the company's common stock of $0.375 per share to be paid on March 15, 2019, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on February 25, 2019.
During the fourth quarter, we paid a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.375 per share, totaling $5.5 million. In 2018, we returned an aggregate of $47.2 million to shareholders through cash dividends.
Share Repurchases
During the fourth quarter of 2018, we repurchased approximately 557,000 shares of the company's common stock, at an average price of $68.52 per share, pursuant to our share repurchase authorization. We also repurchased approximately 15,000 shares of the company's common stock, at an average price of $71.39 per share, from restricted stock award recipients selling shares upon the award vesting to meet their employment tax obligations. The aggregate amount of approximately 572,000 shares, or $39.2 million, were repurchased at an average price of $68.59 per share.
During the year, we repurchased approximately 681,000 shares, at an average price of $69.20 per share, pursuant to our share repurchase authorization. We also repurchased approximately 280,000 shares of the company's common stock, at an average price of $84.96 per share, from restricted stock award recipients selling shares upon the award vesting to meet their employment tax obligations. The aggregate amount of approximately 961,000 shares, or $70.9 million, were repurchased at an average price of $73.79 per share.
Senior Notes
We repaid our $125 million fixed rate senior note upon maturity on October 9, 2018. Given our level of capital and strong cash generation from earnings, we decided not to renew our long-term borrowings.

† | Adjusted rolling 12 month return on average common shareholders' equity, a non-GAAP measure, is computed by dividing adjusted net income for the last 12 months by average monthly common shareholders' equity. For a detailed explanation of the components of adjusted net income, see "Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to Selected Summary Financial Information." Management believes that the adjusted rolling 12 month return on average common shareholders' equity provides a meaningful measure of our return on the core operating results of the business. |
‡ Tangible book value per share, a non-GAAP measure, is computed by dividing tangible common shareholders' equity by common shares outstanding. Tangible common shareholders' equity equals total common shareholders' equity less goodwill and identifiable intangible assets. Management believes that tangible book value per share is a meaningful measure of the tangible assets deployed in our business. Shareholders' equity is the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure to tangible shareholders' equity. The following is a reconciliation of shareholders' equity to tangible shareholders' equity:

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This press release and the conference call to discuss the contents of this press release contain forward-looking statements. Statements that are not historical or current facts, including statements about beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. These forward-looking statements cover, among other things, statements made about the outlook for corporate advisory (i.e., M&A), capital markets, and public finance transactions (including our performance in specific sectors), current deal pipelines (or backlogs) for 2019, areas of potential growth and market share gains for the company (e.g., sectors within corporate advisory), economic and market conditions (including the outlook for equity markets, municipal issuance, and the interest rate environment), our recruiting pipeline, the state of our equity and fixed income brokerage and asset management businesses, anticipated financial results generally (including expectations regarding our revenue levels, non-compensation expenses, effective tax rate, compensation ratio, compensation and benefits expense, operating margins, return on equity, and earnings per share), the level of financial instruments owned (i.e., our securities inventory), our strategic priorities (including growth of investment banking), the payment of our quarterly and special dividends to our shareholders, the potential impact of the ongoing federal government shutdown, or other similar matters.
Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, both known and unknown, and important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated or discussed in the forward-looking statements. These risks, uncertainties and important factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
• | revenues from corporate advisory (i.e., M&A) engagements and equity and debt financings may vary materially depending on the number, size, and timing of completed transactions, and completed transactions do not generally provide for subsequent engagements; |
• | market and economic conditions or developments may be unfavorable, including in specific sectors in which we operate, and these conditions or developments, such as market fluctuations or volatility, may adversely affect our business, revenue levels and profitability; |
• | the volume of anticipated transactions – including corporate advisory (i.e., M&A), equity financing, and debt financing – and the corresponding revenues from the transactions may vary from quarter to quarter significantly, particularly if there is a decline in macroeconomic conditions or the financial markets; |
• | asset management revenue may vary based on product trends favoring passive investment products, and investment performance and market factors, with market factors impacting certain sectors that are more heavily weighted to our business, e.g. energy-based MLP funds; |
• | interest rate volatility, especially if the changes are rapid or severe, could negatively impact our fixed income institutional business and the negative impact could be exaggerated by reduced liquidity in the fixed income markets; and |
• | our stock price may fluctuate as a result of several factors, including but not limited to, changes in our revenues and operating results. |
A further listing and description of these and other risks, uncertainties and important factors can be found in the sections titled "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, and updated in our subsequent reports filed with the SEC (available at our Web site at www.piperjaffray.com and at the SEC Web site at www.sec.gov).
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on them. We undertake no obligation to update them in light of new information or future events.

(a) | Piper Jaffray Companies calculates earnings per common share using the two-class method, which requires the allocation of distributed and undistributed earnings to participating securities. No allocation of undistributed earnings is made for periods in which a loss is incurred, or for periods in which cash dividends exceed net income resulting in an undistributed loss. Distributed earnings (e.g., dividends) are allocated to participating securities. Participating securities include all of the Company’s unvested restricted shares. |
(b) | Earnings per diluted common share is calculated using the basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding for periods in which a loss is incurred, or for periods in which cash dividends exceed net income resulting in an undistributed loss. |
(c) | Includes the declaration of a special cash dividend of $1.62 per share and quarterly cash dividends totaling $1.50 per share on the Company's common stock for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018. |

(3) | A non-GAAP measure which excludes compensation expense from acquisition-related agreements. |
(4) | A non-GAAP measure which excludes (a) non-compensation expenses related to noncontrolling interests (see (11) below), (b) non-compensation expenses from acquisition-related agreements, (c) amortization of intangible assets related to acquisitions and (d) goodwill impairment charges. |

This also excludes the impact of a one-time remeasurement of deferred tax assets due to a lower federal corporate tax rate resulting from the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, as well as the impact of a deferred tax valuation allowance. |
(8) | A non-GAAP measure which represents net income earned by the Company excluding (a) compensation and non-compensation expenses from acquisition-related agreements, (b) amortization of intangible assets related to acquisitions, (c) goodwill impairment charges, (d) the impact of the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, (e) the impact of a deferred tax valuation allowance and (f) the income tax expense/(benefit) allocated to the adjustments. |
(9) | Effective tax rate is a non-GAAP measure which is computed based on a quotient, the numerator of which is adjusted income tax expense and the denominator of which is adjusted income before adjusted income tax expense. |
(10) | Piper Jaffray Companies calculates earnings per common share using the two-class method, which requires the allocation of consolidated adjusted net income between common shareholders and participating security holders, which in the case of Piper Jaffray Companies, represents unvested stock with dividend rights. No allocation of undistributed earnings is made for periods in which a loss is incurred, or for periods in which the special cash dividend exceeds adjusted net income resulting in an undistributed loss. |
(11) | Noncontrolling interests include revenue and expenses from consolidated alternative asset management entities that are not attributable, either directly or indirectly, to Piper Jaffray Companies. |
