RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
JUNE 27, 1997
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Raymond
James Financial, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (the "Company").
All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation. These statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for
the interim periods presented. All such adjustments made are of a normal,
recurring nature. The nature of the Company's business is such that the
results of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for
a full year. Certain amounts from prior years have been reclassified for
consistency with current year presentation. These reclassifications were
not material to the consolidated financial statements.
Commitments and Contingencies
The Company has committed to lend to, or guarantee other debt for,
Raymond James Tax Credit Funds, Inc. ("RJTCF") up to $10 million upon
request. RJTCF, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, is a sponsor of
limited partnerships qualifying for low income housing tax credits. The
borrowings are secured by properties under development. The commitment
expires on November 30, 1997, at which time any outstanding balances will
be due and payable. At June 27, 1997, there were loans of $1,600,000
outstanding.
The Company is a defendant or co-defendant in various lawsuits
incidental to its securities business. The Company is contesting the
allegations in these cases and believes that there are meritorious defenses
in each of these lawsuits. In view of the number and diversity of claims
against the Company, the number of jurisdictions in which litigation is
pending and the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of litigation
and other claims, the Company cannot state with certainty what the eventual
outcome of pending litigation or other claims will be. In the opinion of
management, based on discussions with counsel, the outcome of these matters
will not result in a material adverse effect on the financial position or
results of operations.
Capital Transactions
The Company's Board of Directors has, from time to time, adopted
resolutions authorizing the Company to repurchase its common stock for the
funding of its incentive stock option and stock purchase plans and other
corporate purposes. As of June 27, 1997, management has Board
authorization to purchase up to 1,500,000 shares.
At their meeting on February 14, 1997, the Company's Board of
Directors declared a 3-for-2 stock split. The additional shares were
distributed on April 3, 1997, to shareholders of record on March 7, 1997.
All references in the consolidated financial statements to amounts per
share and to the average number of shares outstanding have been restated to
give retroactive effect to the stock split. Also at their meeting on May
15, 1997, the Company's Board of Directors declared the quarterly cash
dividend of $.08 per share, payable July 3 to shareholders of record June
13.
Net Capital Requirements
The broker-dealer subsidiaries of the Company are subject to the
requirements of Rule 15c3-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
This rule requires that aggregate indebtedness, as defined, not exceed
fifteen times net capital, as defined. Rule 15c3-1 also provides for an
"alternative net capital requirement" which, if elected, requires that net
capital be equal to the greater of $250,000 or two percent of aggregate
debit items computed in applying the formula for determination of reserve
requirements. The New York Stock Exchange may require a member
organization to reduce its business if its net capital is less than four
percent of aggregate debit items and may prohibit a member firm from
expanding its business and declaring cash dividends if its net capital is
less than five percent of aggregate debit items. The net capital positions
of the Company's broker-dealer subsidiaries at June 27, 1997 were as
follows (dollar amounts in thousands):
Raymond James & Associates, Inc.:
(alternative method elected)
Net capital as a percent of aggregate debit items 22%
Net capital $139,108
Required net capital $12,691
Investment Management & Research, Inc.:
Ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital .91
Net capital $7,744
Required net capital $470
Robert Thomas Securities, Inc.:
Ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital 2.74
Net capital $2,834
Required net capital $517
MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
(Any statements containing forward looking information should be read in
conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of
Operations and Financial Condition in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended September 27, 1996.)
Results of Operations - Three months ended June 27, 1997 compared with
three months ended June 28, 1996.
Total revenues increased 6% to $210,118,000, the Company's second best
quarter. However, due to a decline in investment banking revenues and
increases in certain expenses, net income declined 8% to $17,140,000 from
last year's $18,582,000.
Record transaction volume was a primary factor in the 7% rise in
commission revenues. Successful recruiting efforts, particularly during
the past six months, have led to a 10% increase in the number of Financial
Advisors as compared to a year ago.
The brief market decline early in the quarter contributed to a slow-
down in underwriting activity and a 22% decline in investment banking
revenues from the strong prior year quarter.
Despite the loss of $2.4 million in quarterly fee income from Liberty
Investment Management, Inc. due to its sale in January 1997, investment
advisory fees showed a 3% increase. Record retail managed account sales
combined with appreciation from strong investment performance fueled the
significant growth in assets under management as follows:
June 27, June 28, % Increase
1997 1996 (Decrease)
------------------------------------------
Assets Under Management (000's):
Eagle Asset Mgmt., Inc. $3,292,726 $2,235,341 47%
Heritage Family of Mutual Funds 2,847,939 2,280,217 25%
Investment Advisory Services 1,152,049 941,889 22%
Awad and Assoc. Asset Mgmt. 607,824 455,541 33%
Carillon Asset Mgmt. 42,866 57,260 (25%)
------------------------------------------
Total Financial Assets Under
Management $7,943,404 $5,970,248 33%
==========================================
Tangible Assets Under Management$1,931,050 $1,530,031 26%
==========================================
Net interest income of over $14 million was the twelfth consecutive
quarterly record. Customer cash deposits and margin loan balances
continued their seemingly relentless climbs, and the Company continued to
generate free cash from operations.
Support costs, including administrative and clerical compensation,
occupancy and equipment, data communications and business development, have
continued to increase as general business volume has increased and the
Company builds the infrastructure to support future growth. Increased
communications expense is related to increased transaction volume and a
greater number of financial advisors, branch offices and customer accounts,
all of which result in increases in telephone, postage, printing and quote
services. Occupancy and equipment increases are largely attributable to
purchases of new computer workstation equipment and upgrades of existing
equipment. In addition, with the opening of two new Raymond James &
Associates offices and expansion of other locations, including certain home
office departments, rent expense has increased. To accommodate future
growth, the Company has commenced construction of its third headquarters
building, which is scheduled for occupancy in April 1998. Business
development costs include increased travel, lodging and sales meetings
expenses.
Results of Operations - Nine months ended June 27, 1997 compared with nine
months ended June 28, 1996.
(The underlying reasons for most of the variances to the prior year
period are substantially the same as the comparative quarterly discussion
above and the statements contained in such foregoing discussion also apply
to the nine month comparison. Therefore, this section is limited to the
discussion of additional factors influencing the comparative nine month
results.)
As previously disclosed, the Company completed the sale of its
interest in Liberty Investment Management, Inc. ("Liberty") during the
second fiscal quarter. Pursuant to an agreement executed in 1994, the
Company was to receive, for the five years ending December 31, 1999, 50% of
the revenues derived from institutional growth equity accounts previously
managed by its Eagle Asset Management, Inc. subsidiary. Liberty assumed
management of approximately $4.3 billion of such accounts effective January
1, 1995, and this arrangement generated an average of approximately $2.4
million per quarter for the Company during calendar years 1995 and 1996.
Liberty was sold to Goldman Sachs Asset Management in early January 1997,
and the Company received $30.6 million, shown as a separate line item on
the consolidated statement of operations, for its remaining three years'
interest in account revenues and its option to purchase a 20% interest in
Liberty at a future date. This transaction generated net income of $18.8
million, or $.58 per share.
Excluding the sale of Liberty, revenues of $624,286,000 represent an
18% increase in revenues over the prior year's nine month revenues of
$528,939,000. Net income of $53,649,000 for the nine months ended June 27,
1997, which also excludes the sale of Liberty, exceeds the prior year's
results by 16%.
Investment banking revenues are higher in the current year as a result
of a strong first half. Through nine months, the Company has managed or co-
managed 43 offerings for a total of $5.3 billion raised versus 38 offerings
with $2.7 billion raised in all of fiscal 1996.
Due to the growth of assets under management, investment advisory fees
exceeded the prior year figure in spite of the fact the prior year includes
three quarters of fees from Liberty, nearly $5 million more than the
current year, which includes only one quarter of these fees.
Financial Condition
The Company's total assets have increased since fiscal year end, the
combined result of increased matched-book stock loan program balances and
increased customer cash balances, particularly in the client interest
program, margin loans and bank deposits. The increase in customer cash
balances is reflected as an increased customer payable and increased margin
loans are reflected as increased customer receivables, the net of which
generally results in a corresponding increase in assets segregated pursuant
to Federal Regulations. Increased bank deposits also contribute to
increased customer payables and are generally invested in available for
sale securities.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months was
$56,172,000. The primary source of this increase was net income, including
proceeds received from the sale of Liberty.
Investing and financing activities used $11,662,000 during the nine
months, with the primary uses being purchases of property and equipment,
and the payment of cash dividends.
The Company has debt in the amount of $12,765,000 in the form of a
mortgage on the first of its two current headquarters buildings. During
the second quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company commenced construction of a
third building at its headquarters complex. The 270,000 square foot tower,
including an adjacent parking garage, is scheduled for completion in the
spring of 1998. Construction is being financed with internal funds.
The Company has two committed lines of credit. During 1995, the
parent company obtained an unsecured $50 million line for general corporate
purposes. In addition, a $50 million line was established to finance
Raymond James Credit Corporation, a Regulation G subsidiary organized to
provide loans collateralized by restricted or control shares of public
companies. The balance of $1,500,000 outstanding on the latter line is
included in notes and loans payable. In addition, Raymond James &
Associates, Inc. has uncommitted lines of credit aggregating $255 million.
The balance of $18 million outstanding on one of these lines is also
included in notes and loans payable.
The Company's broker-dealer subsidiaries are subject to requirements
of the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to liquidity and capital
standards (see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
Effects of Inflation
The Company's assets are primarily liquid in nature and are not
significantly affected by inflation. Management believes that the changes
in replacement cost of property and equipment would not materially affect
operating results. However, the rate of inflation affects the Company's
expenses, including employee compensation, communications and occupancy,
which may not be readily recoverable through charges for services provided
by the Company.
