Segmented Fourth Quarter Results
Americas region revenues totalled $486.0 million for the fourth quarter compared to $474.5 million in the prior year quarter, up 2% (3% in local currency). Local currency revenue growth comprised of 5% contribution from acquisitions, partly offset by slightly lower Sales and Lease Brokerage activity in the quarter. Internal revenue growth in the comparative prior year quarter was a very strong 9%. Adjusted EBITDA was $50.2 million, versus $45.6 million the prior year quarter, with margins positively impacted by lower costs as well as operating leverage in Outsourcing & Advisory services. GAAP operating earnings were $35.5 million, relative to $34.3 million in the prior year quarter.

EMEA region revenues totalled $225.6 million for the fourth quarter compared to $216.9 million in the prior year quarter, up 4% (6% in local currency). Local currency revenue growth was comprised of 5% internal growth and 1% growth from acquisitions. Internal revenue growth was attributable to strong Sales and Lease Brokerage activity, particularly in Germany, the Netherlands and Spain offset by a decline in Outsourcing & Advisory activity, primarily project management in France. Adjusted EBITDA was $51.2 million, up from $48.9 million. Margins were up slightly versus the prior year quarter. GAAP operating earnings were $42.7 million, up from $38.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2018.

Asia Pacific region revenues totalled $171.7 million for the fourth quarter compared to $159.2 million in the prior year quarter, up 8% (11% in local currency). Internal revenue growth was 6%, with growth across all service lines, led by Lease Brokerage and Outsourcing & Advisory. Acquisitions contributed 5% to local currency revenue growth, driven by the acquisition of Synergy completed during the fourth quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $32.5 million, up from $29.0 million, with margins higher due to operating leverage. GAAP operating earnings were $28.1 million, up from $27.2 million in the prior year quarter.

Investment Management revenues for the fourth quarter were $44.7 million compared to $38.9 million in the prior year quarter, up 15%. Local currency revenue growth of 15% was all internally generated and reflected incremental management fees from new capital commitments completed during the year. Passthrough revenue from historical carried interest represented $3.1 million for the fourth quarter versus $4.2 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $16.5 million relative to $17.7 million in the prior year quarter and was impacted primarily by investments in additional resources to establish new fund products in Europe and the US for 2020. GAAP operating earnings, which are impacted by acquisition-related intangible asset amortization, were $9.9 million in the quarter, versus $11.1 million in the prior year quarter. Assets under management stood at $32.9 billion as of December 31, 2019, up 25% from $26.4 billion in the fourth quarter of 2018.

Unallocated global corporate costs as reported in Adjusted EBITDA were $6.0 million in the fourth quarter, relative to $8.1 million in the prior year period. The corporate GAAP operating loss for the fourth quarter was $16.6 million, relative to $13.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2018.

Segmented Full Year Results
The Americas region’s revenues totalled $1.69 billion for the full year compared to $1.60 billion in the prior year, up 6% (7% in local currency). Local currency revenue growth was comprised of 6% from acquisitions and 1% from internal growth. Internal revenue growth was attributable to strong Outsourcing & Advisory services partly offset by a decline in Sales Brokerage. Adjusted EBITDA was $151.3 million, up 7% from $141.5 million in the prior year, with the margin up slightly year over year. GAAP operating earnings were $103.7 million, versus $105.5 million in 2018.

EMEA region revenues totalled $636.5 million for the year compared to $623.2 million in the prior year, up 2% (7% in local currency). Local currency revenue growth comprised of 5% internal growth and 2% from acquisitions. The region experienced internal growth across all service lines, led by strong Sales Brokerage activity in most major markets. Adjusted EBITDA was $80.3 million, versus $88.5 million in the prior year, impacted by (i) talent acquisition investments made during the first half of the year and (ii) a significant decline in project management revenues and profitability in France. GAAP operating earnings were $48.5 million as compared to $53.9 million in 2018.

Asia Pacific region revenues totalled $542.6 million for the year compared to $528.4 million in the prior year, up 3% (7% in local currency).

Adjusted EBITDA was $76.2 million, up from $73.4 million in the prior year, with the margin up slightly year over year. GAAP operating earnings were $67.1 million, up from $66.2 million in the prior year.

Investment Management revenues totalled $174.6 million for the year, compared to $76.0 million in the prior year. The growth reflects the impact of the Harrison Street acquisition in mid-2018 as well as internal revenue growth of 20% from incremental management fees on new capital commitments completed during the year. Pass-through revenue from historical carried interest represented $19.2 million versus $12.3 million in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA was $61.9 million relative to $26.1 million in 2018. GAAP operating earnings, which are impacted by acquisition-related intangible asset amortization, were $35.0 million versus $12.3 million in the prior year.

Real Estate Assets Held for Sale
During the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company acquired certain real estate assets in connection with the establishment of a new Investment Management fund. The real estate assets, as well as corresponding liabilities, are expected to be transferred to the fund, without gain or loss, during the second quarter of 2020.

Adoption of New Lease Accounting Standard
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted FASB Accounting Standard Codification Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”). ASC 842 requires the recognition of operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for virtually all premise and equipment leases on the consolidated balance sheet, with no impact on earnings. The Company adopted ASC 842 effective January 1, 2019 without adjusting comparative periods and recorded a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability as of December 31, 2019.

Notes
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) depreciation and amortization; (v) acquisition-related items (including transaction costs, contingent acquisition consideration fair value adjustments and contingent acquisition consideration-related compensation expense); (vi) restructuring costs and (vii) 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.

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, adjusted for the effect, after income tax, of: (i) the non-controlling interest redemption increment; (ii) amortization expense related to intangible assets recognized in connection with acquisitions; (iii) acquisition-related items; (iv) restructuring costs and (v) 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.

Adjusted EPS	$	2.01			$	1.77			$	4.67			$	4.09

3. Local currency revenue growth rate and internal revenue growth rate measures

Percentage revenue 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.

4. 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 properties 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.
