AUM, Flows and Investment Performance

Victory Capital’s total AUM decreased by 5.0%, or $7.7 billion, to $147.3 billion at September 30, 2022, compared with $154.9 billion at June 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to negative market action of $7.1 billion as a result of volatility and unprecedented pullbacks in the market. Total gross flows were $6.8 billion for the third quarter and $27.3 billion for the year-to-date period. For the third quarter and year-to-date periods, the Company reported total net outflows of $0.6 billion and net inflows of $1.7 billion, respectively.

Third Quarter 2022 Compared with Second Quarter 2022

Revenue decreased 4.0% to $207.3 million in the third quarter, compared with $216.0 million in the second quarter, primarily due to a decrease in average AUM and revenue realization. Operating expenses increased 12.4% to $108.6 million, compared with $96.7 million in the second quarter primarily due to a non-cash $16.1 million difference in amounts recorded to the change in the fair value of consideration payable for acquisitions. GAAP operating margin contracted 760 basis points in the third quarter to 47.6%, down from 55.2% in the second quarter. Third quarter GAAP net income decreased 8.1% to $72.8 million, down from $79.2 million in the prior quarter. Third quarter GAAP net income benefited from a lower than normal tax rate as a result of employees exercising stock options during the period. On a per-share basis, GAAP net income decreased 7.3% to $1.01 per diluted share in the third quarter, versus $1.09 per diluted share in the second quarter.

Adjusted net income with tax benefit increased 6.0% to $85.6 million in the third quarter, up from $80.7 million in the second quarter. On a per-share basis, adjusted net income with tax benefit increased 7.2% to $1.19 per diluted share in the third quarter, from $1.11 per diluted share in the prior quarter. Adjusted EBITDA decreased 2.5% to $103.6 million in the third quarter, versus $106.2 million in the second quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded 80 basis points in the third quarter of 2022 to 50.0% compared with 49.2% in the prior quarter.

Third Quarter 2022 Compared with Third Quarter 2021

Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022, declined 8.4% to $207.3 million, compared with $226.3 million in the same quarter of 2021 as a result of lower average AUM and revenue realization over the comparable period.

Operating expenses decreased 14.7% to $108.6 million, compared with $127.3 million in last year’s third quarter due the combination of a non-cash $12.9 million difference in amounts recorded to the change in the fair value of consideration payable for acquisitions as well as a decrease in acquisition-related costs. GAAP operating margin expanded 390 basis points to 47.6% in the third quarter, from 43.7% in the same quarter of 2021. GAAP net income decreased 1.9% to $72.8 million, or $1.01 per diluted share, in the third quarter compared with $74.2 million, or $1.00 per diluted share, in the same quarter of 2021. Third quarter GAAP net income benefited from a lower than normal tax rate as a result of employees exercising stock options during the period.

Adjusted net income with tax benefit decreased 7.6% to $85.6 million, or $1.19 per diluted share, in the third quarter, compared with $92.6 million, or $1.25 per diluted share in the same quarter last year. Adjusted EBITDA decreased 9.9% to $103.6 million, compared with $115.0 million in last year’s same quarter. Year-over-year, adjusted EBITDA margin contracted 80 basis points to 50.0% in the third quarter of 2022, compared with 50.8% in the same quarter last year.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Compared with Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021

Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, decreased 1.2% to $653.3 million, compared with $661.1 million in the same period of 2021. The decrease was primarily due to lower revenue realization as a result of the WestEnd acquisition partially offset by higher average AUM.

Operating expenses decreased 11.5% to $333.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared with $377.1 million in the same period in 2021. The decrease was due to a non-cash $51.2 million difference in amounts recorded to the change in the fair value of consideration payable for acquisitions, and a decrease in variable expenses, partially offset by continued investments to support future growth. GAAP operating margin was 48.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, a 590 basis point increase from the 43.0% recorded in the same period in 2021. GAAP net income rose 7.0% to $223.2 million, or $3.07 per diluted share, in the first nine months of 2022 compared with $208.6 million, or $2.81 per diluted share, in the same period in 2021.

Adjusted net income with tax benefit decreased 2.5% to $256.7 million, or $3.53 per diluted share, in the first nine months of 2022, compared with $263.4 million, or $3.55 per diluted share in the same period in 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, adjusted EBITDA decreased 3.0% to $324.1 million, compared with $334.1 million for the same period in 2021. Year-over-year, adjusted EBITDA margin contracted 90 basis points to 49.6% in the first nine of 2022, compared with 50.5% in the same period last year.

Balance Sheet / Capital Management

During the third quarter, the Company reduced outstanding debt by an additional $30 million, increasing year-to-date debt reduction to $145 million. The total debt outstanding as of September 30, 2022 was approximately $1,017 million, exclusive of $11 million in open market term loan debt repurchases that had yet to settle. Total outstanding debt consisted of an existing term loan balance of $642 million and the 2021 Incremental Term Loans balance of $375 million.

The Company repurchased 1.8 million shares during the third quarter and 3.2 million shares year to date.

Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Victory Capital uses non-GAAP financial measures referred to as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income to measure the operating profitability of the Company. These measures eliminate the impact of one-time acquisition, restructuring and integration costs and demonstrate the ongoing operating earnings metrics of the Company. The Company has included these non-GAAP measures to provide investors with the same financial metrics used by management to assess the operating performance of the Company.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjustments made to GAAP Net Income to calculate Adjusted EBITDA, as applicable, are:

  • Adding back income tax expense;
  • Adding back interest paid on debt and other financing costs, net of interest income;
  • Adding back depreciation on property and equipment;
  • Adding back other business taxes;
  • Adding back amortization expense on acquisition-related intangible assets;
  • Adding back stock-based compensation expense associated with equity awards issued from pools created in connection with the management-led buyout and various acquisitions and as a result of equity grants related to the IPO;
  • Adding back direct incremental costs of acquisitions, including restructuring costs;
  • Adding back debt issuance cost expense;
  • Adjusting for earnings/losses on equity method investments.

Adjusted Net Income

Adjustments made to GAAP Net Income to calculate Adjusted Net Income, as applicable, are:

  • Adding back other business taxes;
  • Adding back amortization expense on acquisition-related intangible assets;
  • Adding back stock-based compensation expense associated with equity awards issued from pools created in connection with the management-led buyout and various acquisitions and as a result of any equity grants related to the IPO;
  • Adding back direct incremental costs of acquisitions, including restructuring costs;
  • Adding back debt issuance cost expense;
  • Subtracting an estimate of income tax expense applied to the sum of the adjustments above.

Tax Benefit of Goodwill and Acquired Intangible Assets

Due to Victory Capital’s acquisitive nature, tax deductions allowed on acquired intangible assets and goodwill provide it with additional significant supplemental economic benefit. The tax benefit of goodwill and intangible assets represent the tax benefits associated with deductions allowed for intangible assets and goodwill generated from prior acquisitions in which the Company received a step-up in basis for tax purposes. Acquired intangible assets and goodwill may be amortized for tax purposes, generally over a 15-year period. The tax benefit from amortization on these assets is included to show the full economic benefit of deductions for all acquired intangible assets with a step-up in tax basis.
