TORONTO, Aug. 06, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Colliers International Group Inc. (NASDAQ and TSX: CIGI) today announced operating and financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, which were significantly impacted by the global COVID-19 pandemic. All amounts are in US dollars.

Second quarter GAAP EPS would have been approximately $0.04 higher excluding changes in foreign exchange rates.
âColliers reported better than expected results across all segments and regions during the second quarter despite the unprecedented impact of COVID-19, especially in Leasing and Capital Markets. Fortunately, the majority of our earnings now come from Investment Management and Outsourcing & Advisory â high value-add professional services that are recurring and contractual â providing us with more resilience and service line diversification than ever,â said Jay S. Hennick, Global Chairman and CEO of Colliers International. âPandemic uncertainty in Leasing and Capital Markets continue to impact our results, though we expect gradual improvement for the balance of the year. During the quarter, we completed a $230 million offering of convertible notes to fortify our balance sheet and completed the acquisitions of Dougherty, a US commercial real estate debt finance, loan servicing and securities platform (now rebranded as Colliers Mortgage) and Maser Consulting, a leading US engineering design and service firm focused on real estate assets and related infrastructure. With a highly diversified and balanced global business, strong balance sheet, entrepreneurial culture, and significant insider ownership, we are confident that Colliers will emerge from this crisis stronger than ever,â he concluded.

Consolidated revenues for the second quarter declined 25% on a local currency basis, driven primarily by expected declines in transactional Leasing and Capital Markets activity due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Consolidated internal revenues measured in local currencies were down 26% (note 3).
For the six months ended June 30, 2020, consolidated revenues declined 13% on a local currency basis, with the impact of the pandemic beginning in March 2020. Consolidated internal revenues measured in local currencies were down 15% (note 3).
Segmented Quarterly Results
Revenues in the Americas region totalled $308.9 million for the second quarter compared to $421.4 million in the prior year quarter, down 27% (26% in local currency) on reduced Leasing and Capital Markets activity across the region. Outsourcing & Advisory revenues were flat in the quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $24.4 million, versus $36.2 million in the prior year quarter. GAAP operating earnings were $3.4 million, relative to $25.6 million in the prior year quarter.
Revenues in the EMEA region totalled $99.6 million for the second quarter compared to $151.6 million in the prior year quarter, down 34% (32% in local currency) on lower activity in each service line, including Outsourcing & Advisory which was impacted by delays in executing on-site turnkey project management assignments due to the pandemic. Adjusted EBITDA was $6.3 million, versus $19.0 million in the prior year. GAAP operating earnings were a loss of $3.3 million as compared to $10.8 million in the second quarter of 2019.
Revenues in the Asia Pacific region totalled $100.1 million for the second quarter compared to $125.1 million in the prior year quarter, down 20% (16% in local currency) on lower Leasing and Capital Markets activity. Outsourcing & Advisory revenues were up slightly in the quarter, including incremental revenues from the recent Synergy acquisition, now rebranded as Colliers Project Leaders. Adjusted EBITDA was $12.3 million, down from $14.2 million. GAAP operating earnings were $5.1 million, down from $12.5 million in the prior year quarter.
Investment Management revenues for the second quarter were $41.4 million compared to $46.9 million in the prior year quarter, down 12% (12% in local currency). The second quarter revenue decline was primarily attributable to a $4.3 million reduction in pass-through revenue from legacy carried interest versus the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $17.4 million relative to $19.2 million in the prior year quarter, attributable to the timing of certain European transaction fees, which were elevated in the prior year quarter. GAAP operating earnings were $10.6 million in the quarter, versus $12.2 million in the prior year quarter. Assets under management were $35.7 billion at June 30, 2020, up 2% from $35.1 billion at March 31, 2020 and up 18% from $30.3 billion at June 30, 2019.
Unallocated global corporate costs as reported in Adjusted EBITDA were $0.3 million in the second quarter, relative to $1.3 million in the prior year quarter, and were favourably impacted by lower insurance costs and lower variable expenses. The corporate GAAP operating loss for the quarter was $1.4 million, relative to $4.1 million in the second quarter of 2019.
Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic
The full impact of the pandemic continues to remain uncertain. The Company is updating the working assumption previously provided to reflect: (i) better than anticipated results for the second quarter across all service lines and regions; and (ii) the recently completed acquisitions of Colliers Mortgage and Maser Consulting. The updated working assumption for the full year 2020 (relative to 2019), is as follows:
Previous | Updated | Add acquisitions | Updated with acquisitions | ||
Revenue | -15% to -25% | -15% to -25% | +5% | -10% to -20% | |
Adjusted EBITDA | -25% to -35% | -20% to -30% | +5% | -15% to -25% |
This working assumption is based on the best available information and is subject to change based on numerous macroeconomic, health, social, political and related factors.
Transactional Leasing and Capital Markets revenues are expected to remain below 2019 levels, although the scale of decline should moderate in the third and fourth quarters. Investment Management and Outsourcing & Advisory are expected to remain relatively stable for the balance of the year with some variability depending on market conditions.
The Company has taken significant steps to adjust costs to expected revenues across all service lines, including reductions to support, administrative and leadership and related costs. Expenses incurred in connection with these reductions are recorded as restructuring costs (note 1) and were substantially all severance related. The Company may take further cost reduction measures in future quarters.
The Company received wage subsidies totalling $10.2 million during the second quarter ended June 30, 2020 from governments in several countries. These subsidies were recorded in earnings as a modest offset to employment costs in cost of revenues. The Company may receive further government wage subsidies in future quarters.
Convertible Notes Offering and Liquidity
On May 19, 2020, the Company completed an offering of $230 million of 4% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2025 (the âConvertible Notesâ) for $223.8 million in net proceeds. The Convertible Notes are unsecured and subordinated to all of the Companyâs existing and future senior and/or secured indebtedness, and are treated as equity for financial leverage ratios under the Companyâs existing debt agreements. The Convertible Notes are convertible into 3.97 million subordinate voting shares or, if not converted, may be settled at maturity with subordinate voting shares or in cash, at the option of Colliers.
As of June 30, 2020, the Companyâs financial leverage ratio expressed in terms of net debt to pro forma Adjusted EBITDA was 1.5x (down from 1.7x from the same quarter in 2019), relative to a maximum of 3.5x permitted under its debt agreements. As of the same date, the Company had $608 million of unused credit under its committed revolving credit facility maturing in April 2024.
Acquisitions
The Company completed the acquisition of a controlling interest in Colliers Mortgage on May 29, 2020 and Maser Consulting after the end of the second quarter, on July 13, 2020. These acquisitions are expected to generate significant incremental recurring revenue streams. The combined purchase price approximated the proceeds from the Convertible Notes offering, and the earnings from these acquisitions are expected to more than offset dilution from the Convertible Notes.

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) other than equity earnings from non-consolidated investments; (iii) interest expense; (iv) depreciation and amortization, including amortization of mortgage servicing rights (âMSRsâ); (v) gains attributable to MSRs; (vi) acquisition-related items (including transaction costs, contingent acquisition consideration fair value adjustments and contingent acquisition consideration-related compensation expense); (vii) restructuring costs and (viii) 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 Companyâs 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 Companyâs 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 as calculated under the If-Converted method, 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 and MSRs; (iii) gains attributable to MSRs; (iv) acquisition-related items; (v) restructuring costs and (vi) 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.

Diluted weighted average shares for Adjusted EPS (thousands) | 41,901 | 39,954 | 41,021 | 39,887 | ||||||||||||
Adjusted EPS is calculated using the âif-convertedâ method of calculating earnings per share in relation to the Convertible Notes, which were issued on May 19, 2020. As such, if adjusted net earnings is in a positive position, 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 is added to the denominator of the earnings per share calculation. If adjusted net earnings is in a loss position, then the âif-convertedâ method is not used as the impact on earnings per share cannot be anti-dilutive.
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 Companyâs 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 (âAUMâ) 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.
