IFMI REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2012 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Full Year Adjusted Operating Income of $7.5 million, or $0.47 per Diluted Share
Fourth Quarter Adjusted Operating Income of $4.3 million, or $0.26 per Diluted Share
Fourth Quarter Net Income of $4.1 million, or $0.26 per Diluted Share
Board Declares Dividend of $0.02 per Share
Philadelphia and New York, February 28, 2013 – Institutional Financial Markets, Inc. (NYSE MKT: IFMI), a financial services firm specializing in credit-related fixed income investments, today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2012.
Adjusted operating income was $4.3 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2012, compared to adjusted operating income of $0.3 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2011, and adjusted operating income of $4.4 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Adjusted operating income was $7.5 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to adjusted operating income of $3.5 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2011. Adjusted operating income is not a measure recognized under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). See Note 1 on page 4.
The Company noted that during the fourth quarter, net trading revenue increased $4.5 million, or 33%, from the prior quarter and increased $2.5 million, or 16%, from the year-ago quarter, despite the Company having substantially reduced its headcount and compensation expenses in its capital markets businesses.
“We are pleased with our performance in the fourth quarter, and believe that our full year results are especially meaningful when considering the adverse conditions we have worked to overcome, particularly in the first half of 2012,” said Daniel G. Cohen, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of IFMI. “The fourth quarter was our second profitable quarter in a row at both the adjusted operating income and net income levels. In addition, we continued to work hard to control both our compensation and non-compensation costs across all of our operating segments. While market conditions remain difficult, we are encouraged by the progress made throughout our diverse operating units and our focus remains on increasing value for our shareholders.”
Comparisons to Prior Year Periods
Revenue was $23.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012, compared to $23.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011. The $0.3 million difference was primarily the result of decreases in principal transactions and other revenue of $3.2 million, partially offset by increases in net trading revenue of $2.5 million and in new issue and advisory revenue of $0.4 million, while asset management revenue remained flat. The decrease in principal transactions and other revenue was primarily the result of $3.5 million in unrealized mark-to-market losses on the Company’s investment in Star Asia during the fourth quarter of 2012, including a $4.9 million negative impact from the weakening of the Japanese Yen, compared to $0.1 million in unrealized mark-to-market losses in the fourth quarter of 2011. The offsetting increase in year-over-year net trading revenue occurred in the Company’s JVB and European operations. Asset management revenue was flat despite continued deterioration in assets under management in the Company’s managed collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”), due to IFMI’s assuming the lead
investment manager role on a European collateralized loan obligation (“CLO”) where the Company had previously been junior investment manager, effectively doubling the asset management fees received from this European CLO.
Revenue was $95.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to $100.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The $5.1 million difference was the result of decreases of $3.7 million in net trading revenue and $4.3 million in principal transactions and other revenue, partially offset by increases in new issue and advisory revenue of $1.4 million and in asset management revenue of $1.5 million. The $3.7 million decline in net trading revenue was the result of weakness in the Company’s PrinceRidge and predecessor operations, caused primarily by a year-over-year drop off in revenue generated from securitized products trading (such as CDOs and CLOs), partially offset by increases in the Company’s JVB and European operations. The decrease in principal transactions and other revenue was primarily the result of $7.2 million in mark-to-market losses on the Company’s investment in Star Asia during 2012, including a $5.5 million negative impact from the weakening of the Japanese Yen, partially offset by realized gains of $1.7 million on the sale of one of the Company’s investments in the third quarter of 2012, and unrealized gains of $0.7 million on the Company’s investment in a new Japanese investment fund. The increase in asset management revenue was primarily the result of a one-time final portfolio management fee of $3.8 million paid in connection with the termination of one of the Company’s European CDOs in 2012, as well as the Company becoming the lead investment manager on the European CLO as described above, partially offset by reductions in revenue due to the continued deterioration in assets under management in the Company’s managed CDOs. The increase in new issue and advisory revenue was the result of more transactions being completed by the Company’s PrinceRidge operation in 2012 compared to 2011.
Compensation and benefits expense was $13.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012, compared to $15.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011, a decrease of $2.3 million, or 15%. Compensation as a percentage of revenue was 56% in the fourth quarter of 2012, as compared to 65% in the fourth quarter of 2011. Compensation and benefits expense was $63.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to $78.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, a decrease of $15.3 million, or 20%. Compensation as a percentage of revenue was 66% in 2012, as compared to 78% in 2011. The number of IFMI employees decreased from 237 at December 31, 2011, to 197 at December 31, 2012.
Total operating expenses were $94.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to $118.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, a decrease of $23.6 million, or 20%.
During the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company earned $1.7 million from its minority interest in the general partner of the Strategos Deep Value Mortgage Fund 2. The general partner earned incentive fee compensation that the Company recognized as a component of income from equity method affiliates in the consolidated statements of operations. The fund was fully liquidated in the fourth quarter of 2012.
Interest expense, net was $0.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012, compared to $1.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011. Interest expense, net was $3.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to $6.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The decreases were primarily the result of lower interest expense on one of our junior subordinated notes due to a change in the interest rate from a fixed rate to a lower variable rate in July 2012, lower interest expense on our convertible senior notes due to repurchases and redemptions, lower interest expense on our bank debt that was paid in full and terminated in the fourth quarter of 2011, and an increase in interest income due to the accelerated repurchase at a discount of the mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest of the withdrawing minority PrinceRidge partners.
Net income was $4.1 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2012, compared to net loss of $4.4 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2011. Net loss was $2.0 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to a net loss of $16.7 million, or $0.88 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Comparisons to Prior Quarter
Revenue was $23.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012, compared to $28.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The difference was the result of decreases of $3.3 million in asset management
2
revenue and $6.1 million in principal transactions and other revenue, which were partially offset by increases of $4.5 million in net trading revenue and $0.2 million in new issue and advisory revenue. The decrease in asset management revenue was primarily the result of the one-time final portfolio management fee of $3.8 million received in the third quarter of 2012. The decrease in principal transactions and other revenue was primarily the result of $3.5 million in unrealized mark-to-market losses on the Company’s investment in Star Asia during the fourth quarter of 2012, including a $4.9 million negative impact from the weakening of the Japanese Yen, compared to $1.3 million in unrealized mark-to-market gains on the Star Asia investment in the third quarter of 2012. The decrease in principal transactions and other revenue was also impacted by realized gains of $1.7 million on the sale of one of the Company’s investments in the third quarter of 2012. The offsetting increase in net trading revenue occurred in the Company’s PrinceRidge and European operations, while the Company’s JVB operation was down slightly.
Compensation and benefits expense was $13.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012, compared to $16.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012, a decrease of $3.3 million, or 20%. Compensation as a percentage of revenue was 56% in the fourth quarter of 2012, as compared to 59% in the third quarter of 2012. The number of IFMI employees decreased from 205 at September 30, 2012, to 197 at December 31, 2012.
The quarter-over-quarter results were also impacted by the increase in income from equity method affiliates due to the $1.7 million in incentive fee compensation realized in the fourth quarter of 2012 as discussed above.
Interest expense, net was $0.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012, compared to $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Similar to the comparison to prior year periods, the decrease was primarily the result of lower interest expense on one of our junior subordinated notes due to a change in the interest rate from a fixed rate to a lower variable rate in July 2012, and an increase in interest income due to the accelerated repurchase at a discount of the mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest of the withdrawing minority PrinceRidge partners.
Net income was $4.1 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2012, compared to net income of $3.0 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2012.

Cautionary Note Regarding Quarterly Financial Results
General
Due to the nature of our business, our revenue and operating results may fluctuate materially from quarter to quarter. Accordingly, revenue and net income in any particular quarter may not be indicative of future results. Further, our employee compensation arrangements are in large part incentive-based and, therefore, will fluctuate with revenue. The amount of compensation expense recognized in any one quarter may not be indicative of such expense in future periods. As a result, we suggest that annual results may be the most meaningful gauge for investors in evaluating our business performance.

Non-GAAP Measures
Adjusted operating income and adjusted operating income per diluted share
Adjusted operating income is not a financial measure recognized by GAAP. Adjusted operating income represents operating income (loss), computed in accordance with GAAP, before depreciation and amortization, a cash charge for a one-time contribution to a non-ordinary course legal settlement, one-time compensation charges related to the former CEO of the capital markets segment and the former Chairman and former CEO of PrinceRidge, share-based compensation expense, and the non-convertible non-controlling interest’s share of operating income (loss), plus the Company’s share of any incentive fees earned included in income from equity method affiliates. The cash charge for a one-time contribution to a non-ordinary course legal settlement and the one-time compensation charges related to the former CEO of the capital markets segment and the former Chairman and former CEO of PrinceRidge were excluded due to the non-recurring nature of the expenses. Depreciation, amortization and share based compensation expenses that have been excluded from adjusted operating income are non-cash items. Incentive fees earned as a component of income from equity method affiliates are included so that all incentive fees earned are treated in a consistent manner as part of adjusted operating income. Adjusted operating income per diluted share is calculated, by dividing adjusted operating income by diluted shares outstanding calculated in accordance with GAAP.
We present adjusted operating income and related per diluted share amounts in this release because we consider them to be useful and appropriate supplemental measures of our performance. Adjusted operating income and related per diluted share amounts help us to evaluate our performance without the effects of certain GAAP calculations that may not have a direct cash or recurring impact on our current operating performance. In addition, our management uses adjusted operating income and related per diluted share amounts to evaluate the performance of our operations. Adjusted operating income and related per diluted share amounts, as we define them, are not necessarily comparable to similarly named measures of other companies and may not be appropriate measures for performance relative to other companies. Adjusted operating income should not be assessed in isolation from or construed as a substitute for operating income prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted operating income is not intended to represent, and should not be considered to be a more meaningful measure than, or an alternative to, measures of operating performance as determined in accordance with GAAP.
