JMP Group Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2016 Financial Results
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--February 15, 2017--JMP Group LLC (NYSE:JMP), an investment banking and alternative asset management firm, reported financial results today for the quarter and full fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.
- Net income attributable to JMP Group under generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, was $0.8 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.2 million, or $0.05 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2015. For the year ended December 31, 2016, GAAP net income was $2.9 million, or $0.14 per share, compared to a net loss of $0.2 million, or $0.01 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2015.
- Total net revenues on a GAAP basis were $36.0 million and $135.0 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2016, respectively, compared to $31.7 million and $141.2 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2015, respectively.
- Operating net income was $2.8 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, an increase of 179.3% from $1.0 million, or $0.04 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2015. For the year ended December 31, 2016, operating net income was $10.5 million, or $0.48 per share, a decrease of 14.6% from $12.3 million, or $0.55 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2015. For more information about operating net income, including a reconciliation to net income attributable to JMP Group, see the section below titled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
- Adjusted net revenues, which exclude certain non-cash items and non-controlling interests, were $35.5 million, an increase of 19.6% from $29.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2015. For the year ended December 31, 2016, adjusted net revenues were $130.2 million, a decrease of 1.9% from $132.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. For more information about adjusted net revenues, including a reconciliation to net revenues, see the section below titled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
“Despite a challenging year in the U.S. equities business across Wall Street, JMP’s 2016 operating earnings of $0.48 per share came close to the consensus analyst estimate of $0.51 per share from last February, due to record results for both our M&A advisory business and our direct principal investments,” said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Joe Jolson. “Together, M&A and private placement fees totaled nearly $33 million from 28 transactions, compared to $12.6 million from 15 transactions in 2015. We met our three-year objective to organically grow this key franchise to record levels, even as the volume of sub-billion-dollar U.S. M&A transactions fell by almost 10% in 2016 industry-wide.
“Adjusted revenues from our direct corporate investments were $18.6 million for the year, a gross return of more than 43% on invested capital, versus just $2.5 million for 2015. As a result, net investment income generated by the publicly traded partnership was $0.65 per share, more than covering the cash distributions of $0.39 per share declared for 2016 and enabling us to spend the equivalent of $0.29 per share to repurchase 1.1 million shares, while maintaining a stable adjusted book value of $5.76 per share at year-end.
“In 2016, we also spent some potential earnings to invest in the future, continuing our longstanding counter-cyclical growth strategy. We added research coverage of alternative energy and regional banks, hired two M&A-focused senior bankers, launched a real estate opportunity fund, and protected JMP Securities’ employee base, which shrunk by only 8%, despite a drop of nearly 40% in our capital markets revenues for the year. We believe that these decisions position us well for future growth and success when the business cycle turns more favorable.”
Segment Results of Operations
At JMP Securities, the broker-dealer segment, adjusted net revenues were $20.5 million, an increase of 26.1% from $16.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2015. JMP Securities’ operating margin on adjusted net revenues was 4.3%, compared to -32.1% for the fourth quarter of 2015. For the year ended December 31, 2016, the margin was 2.4%, compared to 5.5% for the year ended December 31, 2015.
The asset management segment produced adjusted net revenues of $6.1 million, a decrease of 36.1% from $9.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2015. JMP Group lost 0.2% for the quarter on the capital invested by the company in hedge funds managed by Harvest Capital Strategies, compared to gains of 1.3% and 8.8% by the HFRI Equity Hedge (Total) Index and Russell 2000 Index, respectively.

Personnel
At December 31, 2016, the company had 228 full-time employees, in line with 228 at September 30, 2016, and down from 247 at December 31, 2015.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the GAAP financial results presented in this press release, JMP Group presents the non-GAAP financial measures discussed below. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance investors’ overall understanding of the company’s current financial performance. Furthermore, company management believes that this presentation enables a more meaningful comparison of JMP Group’s financial performance in various periods. However, the non-GAAP financial results presented should not be considered a substitute for results that are presented in a manner consistent with GAAP. A limitation of the non-GAAP financial measures presented is that the adjustments concern gains, losses or expenses that JMP Group generally expects to continue to recognize. The adjustment of these non-GAAP items should not be construed as an inference that these gains or expenses are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. Therefore, both GAAP measures of JMP Group’s financial performance and the respective non-GAAP measures should be considered together. The non-GAAP measures presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
Adjusted Net Revenue
Adjusted net revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure that (i) reverses the general loan loss provision taken with regard to certain CLOs, (ii) reverses unrealized losses derived from depreciation and amortization of real estate investment properties, (iii) reverses net unrealized gains or losses on strategic equity investments and warrants, (iv) reverses net unrealized mark-to-market gains or losses on investments related to deferred compensation, and (v) excludes non-controlling interests in various sources of revenue that are consolidated according to GAAP. In particular, adjusted net revenue adjusts for:
- the non-specific loss provision recorded with regard to loans held by JMP Credit Advisors CLO II and JMP Credit Advisors III, which is required by GAAP;
- depreciation and amortization expense related to commercial real estate investments that is recognized by JMP Group as a result of equity method accounting;
- unrealized mark-to-market gains or losses on the company’s strategic equity investments as well as certain warrant positions;
- unrealized mark-to-market gains or losses on investments in the company’s hedge funds that are made on behalf of employees who opt for such investments under the terms of their deferred compensation agreements; any gains or losses will accrue to the individual employee once the deferred compensation is released to that individual; and
- non-controlling interests in revenues generated by consolidated entities, including HCAP Advisors and CLOs managed by JMP Credit Advisors.

Management believes that adjusting net revenue in these ways is useful in that it allows for a better evaluation of the performance of JMP Group’s ongoing business and facilitates a meaningful comparison of the company’s results in a given period to those in prior and future periods.
Asset Management-Related Fee Revenues
Asset management-related fee revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure that (i) excludes the non-controlling interest in asset management subsidiary HCAP Advisors and (ii) includes certain fee revenues (in particular, asset management fundraising fees generated by JMP Securities, loan fees, and revenues from fee-sharing arrangements with other asset managers) that are reported in JMP Group’s financial statements as other income.

Company management has utilized asset management-related fee revenue as a means of assessing the performance of JMP Group’s combined asset management activities, including its fundraising and other services for third parties. Management believes that asset management-related fee revenues, as presented above, provide useful information by indicating the relative contributions of base management fees and performance-related incentive fees, thus facilitating a comparison of those fees in a given period to those in prior and future periods. Management also believes that asset management-related fee revenue is a more meaningful measure than standalone asset management fees as reported, because asset management-related fee revenues represent the combined impact of JMP Group’s various asset management activities on the company’s total net revenues.
Adjusted Principal Transaction Revenues
Adjusted principal transaction revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure that (i) reverses net unrealized gains and losses on strategic equity investments and warrants and on investments related to deferred compensation and (ii) reverses unrealized losses derived from depreciation and amortization of real estate investment properties, in keeping with the calculation of adjusted net revenue, as detailed above.
A summary of the company’s principal transaction revenues for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2016, and for comparable prior periods is set forth below.

Company management utilizes adjusted principal transaction revenue because it is a component of adjusted net revenue. The exclusion of certain elements of principal transaction revenues, as presented above, results in an adjusted measure that is included as “Principal transactions” among JMP Group’s revenues in the non-GAAP presentation of segment results of operations that appears below. Management believes that adjusting principal transaction revenues and total revenues in these ways is useful in that it allows for a clearer understanding and comparison of JMP Group’s financial results for the periods presented.
Compensation Ratio
A compensation ratio expresses compensation expense as a percentage of net revenues in a given period. As utilized by JMP Group, an adjusted compensation ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure that employs adjusted net revenues as the denominator in its calculation. Furthermore, this ratio adjusts the financial impact of certain compensation-related and transaction-related expenses that are or are not recognized under GAAP. In particular, the adjusted compensation ratio reverses compensation expense and unrealized mark-to-market gains or losses related to share-based awards, deferred compensation and non-controlling interests (so that the compensation expenses used in the numerator correspond to the adjusted net revenues generated in the periods presented). In addition, the company presents a further adjusted compensation ratio that excludes any compensation related to incentive fees generated by hedge funds, a majority of which is passed through to the funds’ investment teams if earned.
A statement of JMP Group’s compensation ratio for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2016, and for comparable prior periods is set forth below.

Company management has utilized compensation ratios, adjusted in the manners described above, to assess JMP Group’s personnel expenses as they relate to its revenues for the periods presented. Management believes that adjusted compensation ratios provide useful information by including or excluding certain expenses as a means of representing the company’s ongoing personnel costs resulting from its core business activities. Management also believes that compensation ratios are useful measures because they allow and facilitate meaningful comparisons of the company’s personnel expenses in a given period to those in prior and future periods.
Operating Net Income
Operating net income is a non-GAAP financial measure that (i) reverses compensation expense related to share-based awards and deferred compensation, (ii) reverses the general loan loss provision taken with regard to certain CLOs, (iii) excludes amortization expense related to JMP Credit Advisors CLO III, (iv) reverses unrealized losses derived from depreciation and amortization of real estate investment properties, (v) reverses net unrealized gains and losses on strategic equity investments and warrants, and (vi) assumes an effective tax rate. In particular, operating net income adjusts for:
- the grant of RSUs and options;
- net deferred compensation, which consists of (a) deferred compensation awarded in a given period but recognized as a GAAP expense over the subsequent three years, less (b) GAAP expense recognized in a given period but already reflected in the operating income of a prior period; the purpose of this adjustment is to fully reflect compensation awarded in a given year, notwithstanding the timing of GAAP expense;
- the non-specific loan loss provision recorded with regard to loans held by JMP Credit Advisors CLO II and JMP Credit Advisors III, which is required by GAAP;
- amortization expense related to an intangible asset resulting from the repurchase of a portion of the equity of JMP Credit Advisors CLO III;
- depreciation and amortization expense related to commercial real estate investments that is recognized by JMP Group as a result of equity method accounting;
- unrealized mark-to-market gains or losses on the company’s strategic equity investments as well as certain warrant positions; and
- a combined federal, state and local income tax rate of 38% at the taxable direct subsidiary of parent company JMP Group, while applying a tax rate of 0% to the company’s other direct subsidiary, which is a “pass-through entity” for tax purposes.
A reconciliation of JMP Group’s net income to its operating net income for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2016, and for comparable prior periods is set forth below.

(1) | In 2013 and the first quarter of 2014, JMP Group issued restricted share units, or RSUs, bearing non-forfeitable distribution equivalent rights. GAAP requires RSUs with non-forfeitable distribution equivalent rights to be included in the diluted share count (without applying the treasury method). Management presents a non-GAAP diluted share count for the period, in keeping with the presentation for quarters not impacted by this GAAP requirement for such RSUs. The non-GAAP diluted share count reflects the impact of such RSUs under the treasury method, which is consistent with the calculation of the dilutive impact of all other RSUs outstanding. On a GAAP basis, the weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2016, was 22,024,335 and 21,841,293, respectively. |
Company management has utilized operating net income on a total and per share basis, adjusted in the manner described above, as an additional device to aid in understanding and analyzing JMP Group’s financial results for the periods presented. Management believes that operating net income provides useful information by excluding certain items that may not be representative of the company’s core operating results or core business activities. Management also believes that operating net income is a useful measure because it allows for a better evaluation of the performance of JMP Group’s ongoing business and facilitates a meaningful comparison of the company’s results in a given period to those in prior and future periods.
Segment Reporting
In order to demonstrate the contribution to the company’s results of each of its primary businesses on a standalone basis, JMP Group presents the operating net income generated by each segment in the tables that follow. Management believes that this presentation enables investors to better understand the separate but interrelated financial operations of the company’s various business lines and to more accurately assess the contribution of each to JMP Group’s aggregate results.
Total net revenues have been adjusted, in part, as detailed above in the section titled “Adjusted Net Revenue,” and the resulting presentation of adjusted net revenues (i) reverses the general loan loss provision taken with regard to certain CLOs, (ii) reverses net unrealized gains and losses on strategic equity investments and warrants, (iii) reverses unrealized losses derived from depreciation and amortization of real estate investment properties, (iv) excludes non-controlling interests in various sources of revenue that are consolidated according to GAAP, and (v) reverses unrealized mark-to-market gains or losses on investments related to deferred compensation. Total non-interest expenses have been adjusted, in part, as detailed above in the section titled “Operating Net Income,” and the resulting adjusted non-interest expense reverses compensation expense related to share-based awards and deferred compensation. Expenses derived from non-controlling interests in entities that are consolidated according to GAAP have also been reversed. For the purposes of calculating operating net income, an effective tax rate of 38% is assumed for JMP Group’s taxable subsidiary, based on the company’s best estimation of the subsidiary’s average rate of taxation over the long term.

Book Value per Share
At December 31, 2016, JMP Group’s book value per share was $5.56. Adding back accumulated depreciation and amortization expense related to commercial real estate investments that is recognized by JMP Group as a result of equity method accounting reflects the reversal of that expense in the calculation of adjusted net revenues, adjusted principal transaction revenues and operating net income and results in an adjusted book value per share of $5.76, as set forth below.

Company management utilizes adjusted book value on a total and per share basis, adjusted in the manner described above, as an additional means of evaluating JMP Group’s efforts to retain earnings and build shareholders’ equity. Management believes that adjusted book value per share provides useful information by excluding non-cash expenses related to real estate investments that otherwise obscure the company’s increases and decreases in net worth as a result of its core business activities. Management also believes that adjusted book value allows for a better comparison of shareholder’s equity and the return on that equity in a given period to those in prior and future periods.
Cautionary Note Regarding Quarterly Financial Results
Due to the nature of its business, JMP Group’s quarterly revenues and net income may fluctuate materially depending on: the size and number of investment banking transactions on which it advises; the timing of the completion of those transactions; the size and number of securities trades which it executes for brokerage customers; the performance of its asset management funds and inflows and outflows of assets under management; gains or losses stemming from sales of or prepayments on, or losses stemming from defaults on, loans underlying the company’s collateralized loan obligations; and the effect of the overall condition of the securities markets and economy as a whole. Accordingly, revenues and net income in any particular quarter may not be indicative of future results. Furthermore, JMP Group’s compensation expense is generally based upon revenues and can fluctuate materially in any quarter, depending upon the amount and sorts of revenue recognized as well as other factors. The amount of compensation and benefits expense recognized in a particular quarter may not be indicative of such expense in any future period. As a result, the company suggests that its annual results may be the most meaningful gauge for investors in evaluating the performance of its business.
