TORONTO, Nov. 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Colliers International Group Inc. (NASDAQ and TSX: CIGI) (“Colliers” or the “Company”) today announced operating and financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023. All amounts are in US dollars.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2023, revenues were $1.06 billion, down 5% (6% in local currency) and adjusted EBITDA (note 1) was $144.9 million, flat (down 1% in local currency) versus the prior year quarter. Adjusted EPS (note 2) was $1.19, relative to $1.41 in the prior year quarter, impacted by higher interest expense. Third quarter adjusted EPS would have been approximately $0.02 lower excluding foreign exchange impacts. The GAAP operating earnings were $70.9 million as compared to $84.0 million in the prior year quarter. The GAAP diluted net earnings per share were $0.53 versus $0.27 in the prior year. The third quarter GAAP diluted net earnings per share would have been approximately $0.02 lower excluding changes in foreign exchange rates.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, revenues were $3.10 billion, down 4% (4% in local currency), adjusted EBITDA (note 1) was $396.6 million, down 7% (7% in local currency) and adjusted EPS (note 2) was $3.36, relative to $4.69 in the prior year period. Changes in foreign exchange rates did not impact adjusted EPS for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The GAAP operating earnings were $168.3 million as compared to $228.7 million in the prior year period. The GAAP diluted net loss per share was $0.04 as compared to earnings per share of $0.54 in the prior year period. The nine months ended September 30, 2023 GAAP diluted net loss per share would have been approximately $0.01 lower excluding changes in foreign exchange rates.

“During the third quarter, Colliers delivered significant growth in our high-value recurring service lines, with a 12% increase in Outsourcing & Advisory and a robust 23% increase in Investment Management. Our proven business model, with a diverse array of high-value recurring revenues, has demonstrated its resilience. Approximately 70% of our earnings now come from recurring services, which bolsters our ability to navigate through market fluctuations, including the current disruptions affecting our transactional business,” said Jay S. Hennick, Chairman & CEO of Colliers.

"Since the release of our second quarter report on August 2, 2023, we've seen further declines in transaction velocity due to market-driven factors such as rising interest rates, stricter credit conditions, and continued uncertainty regarding tenants' plans for return-to-office. As a result, we’ve revised our outlook for the seasonally strongest fourth quarter to take a more conservative stance. Capital Markets and Leasing are truly essential services for investors, owners, and occupiers of real estate assets. They may be temporarily impacted right now but they will rebound once the market stabilizes, potentially as early as the second half of 2024.”

“Our nearly 30-year track record of performance demonstrates our success and dedication to delivering shareholder value. We remain committed to creating meaningful value for our shareholders by continuing to grow our core business, expanding into new high-value recurring services, and seeking out strategic opportunities, especially during times like these,” he concluded.

(1) Investment Management local currency revenues, excluding pass-through carried interest, were up 22% and 55% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.


For the third quarter, consolidated revenues decreased 6% on a local currency basis on a market-driven transaction slowdown in Capital Markets and, to a lesser extent, Leasing partly offset by solid growth in Investment Management and Outsourcing & Advisory. Consolidated internal revenues measured in local currencies declined 10% (note 3) versus the prior year quarter.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, consolidated revenues decreased 4% on a local currency basis. Capital Markets and, to a lesser extent, Leasing declined in line with macroeconomic conditions while Investment Management and Outsourcing & Advisory were up strongly. Consolidated internal revenues measured in local currencies were down 10% (note 3).

Segmented Third Quarter Results
Revenues in the Americas region totalled $619.3 million down 11% (11% in local currency) versus $695.1 million in the comparative prior year quarter. The decline was attributable to lower market driven transaction activity, primarily in Capital Markets and, to a lesser extent, Leasing. Outsourcing & Advisory revenues were up, driven by internal growth in Engineering & Design, Project Management and Property Management as well as the favourable impact of recent acquisitions. Adjusted EBITDA was $68.6 million, up 3% (2% in local currency) relative to the prior year quarter based upon service mix, cost controls and the favourable impact from recent acquisitions. GAAP operating earnings were $42.0 million, relative to $59.9 million in the prior year quarter and were primarily impacted by changes in non-cash gains attributable to mortgage servicing rights.

Revenues in the EMEA region totalled $174.0 million, up 6% (down 2% in local currency) compared to $164.2 million in the prior year quarter. The local currency decline was primarily attributable to significantly lower Capital Markets activity, particularly in Germany and the Nordics, mostly offset by higher Outsourcing & Advisory revenues (including recent acquisitions). Adjusted EBITDA was $7.6 million, down 43% (51% in local currency) compared to $13.3 million in the prior year quarter, attributable to the reduction in higher-margin Capital Markets revenues across the region. The GAAP operating earnings were $6.7 million compared to $6.1 million in the prior year quarter.

Revenues in the Asia Pacific region totalled $143.9 million compared to $152.8 million in the prior year quarter, down 6% (3% in local currency), driven by lower Capital Markets activity, partly offset by recent acquisitions. Adjusted EBITDA was $15.8 million, down 25% (22% in local currency) primarily on changes in service mix. GAAP operating earnings were $12.1 million, versus $17.5 million in the prior year quarter.

Investment Management revenues were $118.7 million compared to $96.1 million in the prior year quarter, up 24% (23% in local currency). Passthrough revenues (from historical carried interest) were $0.6 million versus nil in the prior year quarter. Excluding the impact of carried interest, revenue was up 23% (22% in local currency) driven by both acquisitions and management fee growth from increased assets under management (“AUM”). Adjusted EBITDA was $55.2 million, up 50% (49% in local currency) compared to the prior year quarter. GAAP operating earnings were $20.4 million in the quarter, versus $19.5 million in the prior year quarter. AUM were $98.5 billion as of September 30, 2023 compared to $97.7 billion as of December 31, 2022.

Unallocated global corporate costs as reported in Adjusted EBITDA were $2.3 million in the third quarter, relative to earnings of $7.0 million in the prior year quarter, primarily attributable to foreign exchange gains in the prior year period. The corporate GAAP operating loss for the quarter was $10.3 million relative to $19.0 million in the third quarter of 2022.

Outlook for 2023
Since the Company’s previous report, further declines in transaction velocity have occurred and accordingly the outlook has been revised to adapt to this more challenging environment. For the seasonally strongest fourth quarter, the Company now expects Capital Markets and Leasing revenues to be down relative to the prior year quarter. The Company continues to expect robust growth (including the impact of recent acquisitions) in its high value recurring service lines, Investment Management and Outsourcing & Advisory. The Investment Management fundraising environment is also expected to remain challenging through the remainder of the year but should improve in 2024.

The favourable impact of cost control measures across the Company is expected to continue, mitigating lower transaction activity. Adjusted EPS is expected to be impacted by increased interest expense as well as a larger proportion of earnings generated from non-wholly owned operations.

The outlook for 2023, including the impact of acquisitions completed to date, is as follows:

  Outlook for 2023
Measure2022RevisedPrior
Revenue$4.5 billion$4.3 billion - $4.4 billion$4.4 billion - $4.6 billion
AEBITDA$630.5 million$580 million - $610 million$670 million - $720 million
AEPS$6.99$5.10 - $5.50$6.70 - $7.50

The financial outlook is based on the Company’s best available information as of the date of this press release, and remains subject to change based on numerous macroeconomic, health, social, geopolitical and related factors.

Notes
Non-GAAP Measures
1. Reconciliation of net earnings to adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net earnings, adjusted to exclude: (i) income tax; (ii) other expense (income); (iii) interest expense; (iv) loss on disposal of operations; (v) depreciation and amortization, including amortization of mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”); (vi) gains attributable to MSRs; (vii) acquisition-related items (including contingent acquisition consideration fair value adjustments, contingent acquisition consideration-related compensation expense and transaction costs); (viii) restructuring costs and (ix) stock-based compensation expense. We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our own operating performance and our ability to service debt, as well as an integral part of our planning and reporting systems. Additionally, we use this measure in conjunction with discounted cash flow models to determine the Company’s overall enterprise valuation and to evaluate acquisition targets. We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure because we believe such measure is useful to investors as a reasonable indicator of operating performance because of the low capital intensity of the Company’s service operations. We believe this measure is a financial metric used by many investors to compare companies, especially in the services industry. This measure is not a recognized measure of financial performance under GAAP in the United States, and should not be considered as a substitute for operating earnings, net earnings or cash flow from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our method of calculating adjusted EBITDA may differ from other issuers and accordingly, this measure may not be comparable to measures used by other issuers. A reconciliation of net earnings to adjusted EBITDA appears below.

Adjusted EBITDA$144,912  $145,065  $396,615  $427,839 

2. Reconciliation of net earnings and diluted net earnings per common share to adjusted net earnings and adjusted EPS

Adjusted EPS is defined as diluted net earnings per share as calculated under the “if-converted” method, adjusted for the effect, after income tax, of: (i) the non-controlling interest redemption increment; (ii) loss on disposal of operations; (iii) amortization expense related to intangible assets recognized in connection with acquisitions and MSRs; (iv) gains attributable to MSRs; (v) acquisition-related items; (vi) restructuring costs and (vii) stock-based compensation expense. We believe this measure is useful to investors because it provides a supplemental way to understand the underlying operating performance of the Company and enhances the comparability of operating results from period to period. Adjusted EPS is not a recognized measure of financial performance under GAAP, and should not be considered as a substitute for diluted net earnings per share from continuing operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our method of calculating this non-GAAP measure may differ from other issuers and, accordingly, this measure may not be comparable to measures used by other issuers. A reconciliation of net earnings to adjusted net earnings and of diluted net earnings per share to adjusted EPS appears below.

Similar to GAAP diluted EPS, Adjusted EPS is calculated using the “if-converted” method of calculating earnings per share in relation to the Convertible Notes, which were issued on May 19, 2020 and fully converted or redeemed by June 1, 2023. As such, the interest (net of tax) on the Convertible Notes is added to the numerator and the additional shares issuable on conversion of the Convertible Notes are added to the denominator of the earnings per share calculation to determine if an assumed conversion is more dilutive than no assumption of conversion. The “if-converted” method is used if the impact of the assumed conversion is dilutive. The “if-converted” method is dilutive for the adjusted EPS calculation for all periods where the Convertible Notes were outstanding.

(1) Amounts shown reflect the "if-converted" method's dilutive impact on the adjusted EPS calculation.

3. Reconciliation of net cash flow from operations to free cash flow

Free cash flow is defined as net cash flow from operating activities plus contingent acquisition consideration paid, less purchases of fixed assets, plus cash collections on AR Facility deferred purchase price less distributions to non-controlling interests. We use free cash flow as a measure to evaluate and monitor operating performance as well as our ability to service debt, fund acquisitions and pay of dividends to shareholders. We present free cash flow as a supplemental measure because we believe this measure is a financial metric used by many investors to compare valuation and liquidity measures across companies, especially in the services industry. This measure is not a recognized measure of financial performance under GAAP in the United States, and should not be considered as a substitute for operating earnings, net earnings or cash flow from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our method of calculating free cash flow may differ from other issuers and accordingly, this measure may not be comparable to measures used by other issuers. A reconciliation of net cash flow from operating activities to free cash flow appears below.

Free cash flow$73,653  $142,026  $10,178  $145,985 

4. Local currency revenue and AEBITDA growth rate and internal revenue growth rate measures

Percentage revenue and AEBITDA variances presented on a local currency basis are calculated by translating the current period results of our non-US dollar denominated operations to US dollars using the foreign currency exchange rates from the periods against which the current period results are being compared. Percentage revenue variances presented on an internal growth basis are calculated assuming no impact from acquired entities in the current and prior periods. Revenue from acquired entities, including any foreign exchange impacts, are treated as acquisition growth until the respective anniversaries of the acquisitions. We believe that these revenue growth rate methodologies provide a framework for assessing the Company’s performance and operations excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and acquisitions. Since these revenue growth rate measures are not calculated under GAAP, they may not be comparable to similar measures used by other issuers.

5. Assets under management

We use the term assets under management (“AUM”) as a measure of the scale of our Investment Management operations. AUM is defined as the gross market value of operating assets and the projected gross cost of development assets of the funds, partnerships and accounts to which we provide management and advisory services, including capital that such funds, partnerships and accounts have the right to call from investors pursuant to capital commitments. Our definition of AUM may differ from those used by other issuers and as such may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other issuers.

6. Adjusted EBITDA from recurring revenue percentage

Adjusted EBITDA from recurring revenue percentage is computed on a trailing twelve-month basis and represents the proportion of adjusted EBITDA (note 1) that is derived from Outsourcing & Advisory and Investment Management service lines. Both these service lines represent medium to long-term duration revenue streams that are either contractual or repeatable in nature. Adjusted EBITDA for this purpose is calculated in the same manner as for our debt agreement covenant calculation purposes, incorporating the expected full year impact of business acquisitions and dispositions.

As such, the interest (net of tax) on the Convertible Notes is added to the numerator and the additional shares issuable on conversion of the Convertible Notes are added to the denominator of the earnings per share calculation to determine if an assumed conversion is more dilutive than no assumption of conversion. The “if-converted” method is used if the impact of the assumed conversion is dilutive. The “if-converted” method was anti-dilutive for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022.
(3) See definition and reconciliation above.
