NEW YORK, Aug. 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Silvercrest Asset Management Group Inc. (NASDAQ: SAMG) (the “Company” or “Silvercrest”) today reported the results of its operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2024.
Business Update
Generally supportive markets and economic conditions continued their progress since the fourth quarter of 2023. Market leadership remained unusually narrow, however, during the second quarter. Large Cap Growth primarily drove higher markets, a persistent trend of the market’s recovery since 2022. Other market segments, including Large Cap Value and Small Cap, actually declined during the second quarter, which negatively affected Silvercrest’s assets. It is important to note that Silvercrest’s U.S. Value strategies and U.S. Small cap growth strategies continued to perform well on a relative basis. Broader market participation benefits Silvercrest long-term due to the firm’s diversified wealth management business and the firm’s exposure to the small cap institutional business. The markets have more recently broadened during the current quarter, and if sustained, should improve Silvercrest’s future assets under management (“AUM”) growth.
Silvercrest’s discretionary AUM decreased $1.1 billion during the quarter to $21.6 billion, primarily due to the loss of institutional mandates. New client accounts and relationships during the quarter were modest but positive. Total AUM at the end of the second quarter was $33.4 billion and increased modestly at 4.7% year-over-year from the second quarter of 2023. Quarterly revenue year-over-year increased $1.3 million or 4.2%. Silvercrest has been investing in the future growth of the business, including on higher compensation. As a result, while top-line revenue has increased, most metrics of the business are down due to higher expenses.
On our last call, I mentioned that Silvercrest has never had more business opportunities underway. We have made and will make investments to drive future growth in the business, including value-added hires. During the second quarter we announced the hiring of a high-quality, well-known global equity investment team to complement our international strategies. We are excited about the potential for significant institutional mandates in future quarters, raising the Silvercrest’s visibility globally with institutions and families alike. We also have invested in a new business development professional and market leader in the Southeast focused on serving ultra high net worth families and family offices. We expect to make more hires to complement our outstanding professional team and to drive future growth. Silvercrest continues to accrue a higher interim percentage of revenue for compensation. We will adjust variable compensation levels to match these important investments in the business and will keep you informed of our plans.
Silvercrest's pipeline of new institutional business opportunities decreased during the second quarter to $1.0 billion. The pipeline remains up from the fourth quarter of last year. Importantly, the firm’s pipeline does not yet include potential mandates for our new Global Equity team which has a high capacity for significant inflows. We continue to expect near-term positive flows to result from opportunities for both our institutional equity and OCIO capabilities.
As a high-end wealth and asset management firm, Silvercrest serves families and institutions from across the globe. Despite headline news of international tensions, we see substantial new opportunities globally for a firm with our high-quality capabilities coupled with superior client service.
On July 30, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase of approximately 5.0% to the Company’s quarterly dividend, from $0.19 per share of Class A common stock to $0.20 per share of Class A common stock. The dividend will be paid on or about September 20, 2024 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on September 13, 2024.

Revenue increased by $1.3 million, or 4.2%, to $31.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, from $29.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was driven by market appreciation partially offset by net client outflows.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To provide investors with additional insight, promote transparency and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, we supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a basis consistent with GAAP with Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share, which are non-GAAP financial measures of earnings. These adjustments, and the non-GAAP financial measures that are derived from them, provide supplemental information to analyze our operations between periods and over time. Investors should consider our non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
- EBITDA represents net income before provision for income taxes, interest income, interest expense, depreciation and amortization.
- We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA without giving effect to the Delaware franchise tax, professional fees associated with acquisitions or financing transactions, gains on extinguishment of debt or other obligations related to acquisitions, impairment charges and losses on disposals or abandonment of assets and leaseholds, client reimbursements and fund redemption costs, severance and other similar expenses, but including partner incentive allocations, prior to our initial public offering, as an expense. We feel that it is important to management and investors to supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis with Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure of earnings, as this measure provides a perspective of recurring earnings of the Company, taking into account earnings attributable to both Class A and Class B shareholders.
- Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by total revenue. We feel that it is important to management and investors to supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis with Adjusted EBITDA Margin, a non-GAAP financial measure of earnings, as this measure provides a perspective of recurring profitability of the Company, taking into account profitability attributable to both Class A and Class B shareholders.
- Adjusted Net Income represents recurring net income without giving effect to professional fees associated with acquisitions or financing transactions, losses on forgiveness of notes receivable from our principals, gains on extinguishment of debt or other obligations related to acquisitions, impairment charges and losses on disposals or abandonment of assets and leaseholds, client reimbursements and fund redemption costs, severance and other similar expenses, but including partner incentive allocations, prior to our initial public offering, as an expense. Furthermore, Adjusted Net Income includes income tax expense assuming a blended corporate rate of 26%. We feel that it is important to management and investors to supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis with Adjusted Net Income, a non-GAAP financial measure of earnings, as this measure provides a perspective of recurring income of the Company, taking into account income attributable to both Class A and Class B shareholders.
- Adjusted Earnings Per Share represents Adjusted Net Income divided by the actual Class A and Class B shares outstanding as of the end of the reporting period for basic Adjusted Earnings Per Share, and to the extent dilutive, we add unvested restricted stock units and non-qualified stock options to the total shares outstanding to compute diluted Adjusted Earnings Per Share. As a result of our structure, which includes a non-controlling interest, we feel that it is important to management and investors to supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis with Adjusted Earnings Per Share, a non-GAAP financial measure of earnings, as this measure provides a perspective of recurring earnings per share of the Company as a whole as opposed to being limited to our Class A common stock.
