    WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., Nov. 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (NYSE: AMG) today reported its financial and operating results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

    Jay C. Horgen, President and Chief Executive Officer of AMG, said:
    “Economic Earnings per share grew 5% in the quarter and in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, relative to the respective year-ago periods, reflecting the disciplined execution of our strategy. While impacted by ongoing client de-risking, particularly within global equities, net client cash flows improved in the quarter and included strong inflows in our alternative strategies.

    “AMG's partnership approach continues to resonate with the highest-quality partner-owned investment firms. In October, we made an investment in a leading communications infrastructure firm with excellent forward prospects, given the strong secular demand for mobile data. This new partnership enhances our participation in the highly-attractive real asset space, and further diversifies our business profile.

    “Looking ahead, the current environment presents unique opportunities for AMG given the diversity and quality of our Affiliates, and our strong and flexible capital position. In addition, the proceeds from the October sale of our minority interest in Baring Private Equity Asia significantly enhance our financial flexibility to allocate capital across AMG’s unique opportunity set to the areas of highest growth and return. We remain focused on executing our strategy and confident in our ability to create meaningful shareholder value over time."

    Notes

      
    (1)Earnings per share (diluted) adjusts for the dilutive effect of the potential issuance of incremental shares of our common stock.
      
     Prior to 2022, we excluded any potential dilutive effect from possible share settlements of Redeemable non-controlling interests as we intend to settle in cash. Upon adoption of Accounting Standard Update 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity ("ASU 2020-06"), we must assume the settlement of all of our Redeemable non-controlling interests using the maximum number of shares permitted under our arrangements. The issuance of shares and the related income acquired are excluded from the calculation if an assumed purchase of Redeemable non-controlling interests would be anti-dilutive to diluted earnings per share.
      
     We had junior convertible securities outstanding during the periods presented and are required to apply the if-converted method to these securities in our calculation of Earnings per share (diluted). Under the if-converted method, shares that are issuable upon conversion are deemed outstanding, regardless of whether the securities are contractually convertible into our common stock at that time. For this calculation, the interest expense (net of tax) attributable to these dilutive securities is added back to Net income (controlling interest), reflecting the assumption that the securities have been converted. Issuable shares for these securities and related interest expense are excluded from the calculation if an assumed conversion would be anti-dilutive to diluted earnings per share.
      
     The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

     Net income (controlling interest), as adjusted $133.0 $121.8 $401.2 $422.0
     Denominator

     Hypothetical issuance of shares to settle Redeemable non-controlling interests  —  2.3  —  5.7
     Junior convertible securities  2.1  1.7  2.1  1.9
     Average shares outstanding (diluted)  44.3  43.5  44.8  47.8

     

    (2)As supplemental information, we provide non-GAAP performance measures of Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest), Economic net income (controlling interest), and Economic earnings per share. Management utilizes these non-GAAP performance measures to assess our performance before our share of certain non-cash expenses and to improve comparability between periods.  
      
     Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest) represents our performance before our share of interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, impairments, certain Affiliate equity expenses, certain gains and losses, including on general partner and seed capital investments, certain non-income based taxes, and adjustments to our contingent payment obligations. We believe that many investors use this non-GAAP measure when assessing the financial performance of companies in the investment management industry.  
      
     Under our Economic net income (controlling interest) definition, we add to Net income (controlling interest) our share of pre-tax intangible amortization and impairments (including the portion attributable to equity method investments in Affiliates), deferred taxes related to intangible assets, and other economic items which include certain gains and losses, principally related to the accounting for contingent payment obligations as well as general partner and seed capital investments, tax windfalls and shortfalls from share-based compensation, certain Affiliate equity expenses, and non-cash imputed interest. Economic net income (controlling interest) is used by management and our Board of Directors as our principal performance benchmark, including as one of the measures for aligning executive compensation with stockholder value.  
      
     Economic earnings per share represents Economic net income (controlling interest) divided by the Average shares outstanding (adjusted diluted). In this calculation, we exclude the potential shares issued upon settlement of Redeemable non-controlling interests from Average shares outstanding (adjusted diluted) because we intend to settle those obligations without issuing shares, consistent with all prior Affiliate equity purchase transactions. The potential share issuance in connection with our junior convertible securities is measured using a “treasury stock” method. Under this method, only the net number of shares of common stock equal to the value of the junior convertible securities in excess of par, if any, are deemed to be outstanding. We believe the inclusion of net shares under a treasury stock method best reflects the benefit of the increase in available capital resources (which could be used to repurchase shares of common stock) that occurs when these securities are converted and we are relieved of our debt obligation.
      
     The following table provides a reconciliation of Average shares outstanding (adjusted diluted):
      
       Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended
     (in millions) 9/30/2021 9/30/2022 9/30/2021 9/30/2022
     Average shares outstanding (diluted) 44.3  43.5  44.8  47.8 
     Hypothetical issuance of shares to settle Redeemable non-controlling interests —  (2.3) —  (5.7)
     Junior convertible securities (2.1) (1.7) (2.1) (1.9)
     Average shares outstanding (adjusted diluted) 42.2  39.5  42.7  40.2 
      
     These non-GAAP performance measures are provided in addition to, but not as a substitute for, Net income (controlling interest), Earnings per share, or other GAAP performance measures. For additional information on our non-GAAP measures, see our Annual and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-K and 10-Q, respectively, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

     Equity method income (net) $35.9  $44.8  $125.1  $123.9 
      
    (4)Effective January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU 2020-06, which impacted the treatment of our junior convertible securities. The adoption resulted in increases in Debt and beginning Retained earnings of $101.5 million and $4.5 million, respectively, and decreases in Additional paid-in-capital and Deferred income tax liability (net) of $80.6 million and $25.4 million, respectively.
