Victory Capital Reports Record Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2020 Financial Results

21 min read

SAN ANTONIO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Victory Capital Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: VCTR) (“Victory Capital” or “the Company”) today reported financial results for the quarter and twelve-months ended December 31, 2020.

“I am pleased to report that Victory Capital ended 2020 with record-breaking financial performance across a number of metrics, and we are entering the new year with excellent momentum,” said David Brown, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our business performed well in a very challenging operating environment and drove adjusted EBITDA margin to a record 52{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} during the fourth quarter, resulting in record adjusted quarterly earnings of $1.07 per share1.

“We generated strong cash flow for the quarter. Consistent with prior guidance, most of the excess cash we generated in 2020 was allocated to reducing debt. This reduced our leverage ratio to 1.8x at year end, while enhancing our financial flexibility and balance sheet capacity for potential future acquisitions.

“Considering our strong financial condition, and no changes to our long-term capital allocation strategy, the Board authorized the third consecutive quarterly cash dividend increase. With this latest increase, our cash dividend has grown by 80{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} since the beginning of 2020, while we continued to rapidly de-lever. Taking into consideration the attractive interest rate on our debt and our projections for continuing to generate substantial excess cash flow, we are evaluating an optimal leverage level that balances our acquisition goals with returning more capital to shareholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases.

“Our Investment Franchises and Solutions platform continued to deliver strong investment performance during the quarter. For the one-, three-, and five-year periods ending December 31, more than two thirds of our AUM outperformed respective benchmarks. For the ten-year period, 76{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} of our AUM outperformed benchmarks.

“Looking ahead, we are on track to close the THB Asset Management acquisition later in the first quarter. We look forward to welcoming THB as our tenth Investment Franchise, and integrating their ESG-focused investment strategies into our integrated operating and distribution platform. As always, serving the needs of our clients remains our top priority.”

AUM, Flows and Investment Performance

Victory Capital’s total AUM increased by 11.0{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3}, or $14.6 billion, to $147.2 billion at December 31, 2020, compared with $132.7 billion at September 30, 2020. The increase was attributable to positive market action of $16.2 billion, slightly offset by net outflows of $1.6 billion. Total gross flows were $5.9 billion for the fourth quarter and $35.9 billion for the year. Long-term AUM increased by 11.4{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3}, or $14.7 billion, to $143.7 billion at December 31, 2020, compared with $129.0 billion at September 30, 2020. For the year, the Company reported long-term gross flows of $23.2 billion and net long-term outflows of $10.9 billion.

At December 31, 2020, Victory Capital offered 117 investment strategies through its nine autonomous Investment Franchises and Solutions Platform. The table below presents outperformance against benchmarks by AUM as of December 31, 2020.

Fourth Quarter 2020 Compared with Third Quarter 2020

Revenue increased 6.2{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} to $200.4 million, in the fourth quarter, compared with $188.7 million in the third quarter, reflecting an increase in average AUM and higher revenue realization as a result of a change in asset mix. GAAP operating margin retracted 390 basis points in the fourth quarter to 38.8{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3}, down from 42.7{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} in the third quarter. The decrease was attributable to a $9.5 million expense in the fair value of contingent acquisition payments in the fourth quarter compared to an expense of $2.0 million in the third quarter. Fourth quarter GAAP net income decreased 1.5{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} to $54.9 million, down from $55.7 million in the prior quarter. On a per-share basis, GAAP net income decreased 1.3{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} to $0.75 per diluted share in the fourth quarter, versus $0.76 per diluted share in the third quarter.

Adjusted net income with tax benefit increased 7{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} to $78.6 million in the fourth quarter, up from $73.4 million in the third quarter. On a per-share basis, adjusted net income with tax benefit increased 7{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} to $1.07 per diluted share in the fourth quarter, from $1.00 per diluted share in the prior quarter. Adjusted EBITDA increased 8.6{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} to $103.8 million in the fourth quarter, versus $95.6 million in the third quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded 110 basis points in the fourth quarter of 2020 to 51.8{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} compared to 50.7{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} in the prior quarter.

Fourth Quarter 2020 Compared with Fourth Quarter 2019

Revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2020, decreased 8.3{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} to $200.4 million, compared to $218.6 million in the same quarter of 2019. The decrease was primarily due to the combination of lower average AUM and lower revenue realization rates. GAAP operating margin was 38.8{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} in the fourth quarter, a 940 basis point increase from the 29.4{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} recorded in the same quarter of 2019 primarily due to the combination of improved operating leverage and a $10.4 million reduction in expense recorded in the change in the fair value of contingent acquisition payments from $19.9 million expense in the fourth quarter 2019 compared to a $9.5 million expense in the fourth quarter 2020. Operating expenses decreased 20.5{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} to $122.7 million, compared with $154.4 million in last year’s fourth quarter. GAAP net income rose 46{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} to $54.9 million, or $0.75 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter compared to $37.6 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, in the same quarter of 2019.

Adjusted net income with tax benefit advanced 7.9{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} to $78.6 million, or $1.07 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter, compared to $72.8 million, or $0.99 per diluted share in the same quarter last year. Adjusted EBITDA was relatively flat, increasing 1.5{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} to $103.8 million, compared with $102.3 million in last year’s same quarter. Year-over-year, Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded 500 basis points to 51.8{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} in the fourth quarter of 2020, compared with 46.8{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} in the same quarter last year.

Year Ended December 31, 2020 Compared with Year Ended December 31, 2019

Year-over-year results reflect the acquisition of the USAA Asset Management Company, which closed on July 1, 2019. The acquisition significantly impacted our financial results for the year ended December 31, 2020 when compared to the year ended December 31, 2019. Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2020, rose 26.6{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} to $775.4 million, compared with $612.4 million in the same period of 2019. The increase was primarily due to higher average AUM as a result of the acquisition.

GAAP operating margin was 40.6{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} for the year ended December 31, 2020, a 1,370 basis point increase from the 26.9{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} recorded in the prior year primarily due to improved operating leverage. Operating expenses increased 2.9{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} to $460.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared with $447.8 million in the same period in 2019, reflecting the Company’s larger scale and new contact center dedicated to serving our direct investor business. During 2020, GAAP net income rose 130{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} to $212.5 million, or $2.88 per diluted share compared with $92.5 million, or $1.26 per diluted share, in the prior year.

Adjusted net income with tax benefit advanced 47.8{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} to $285.5 million, or $3.87 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared with $193.1 million, or $2.63 per diluted share in the prior year. During 2020, adjusted EBITDA rose 40.4{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} to $377.3 million, compared with $268.8 million in 2019. Year-over-year, adjusted EBITDA margin expanded 480 basis points to 48.7{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} in 2020, compared with 43.9{14cc2b5881a050199a960a1a3483042b446231310e72f0dc471a7a1eddd6b0c3} in the prior year.

Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors beyond Victory Capital’s control such as the COVID-19 pandemic and its effect on our business, operations and financial results going forward, as discussed in Victory Capital’s filings with the SEC, that could cause Victory Capital’s actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from the expected results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Although it is not possible to identify all such risks and factors, they include, among others, the following: reductions in AUM based on investment performance, client withdrawals, difficult market conditions and other factors such as a pandemic; the nature of the Company’s contracts and investment advisory agreements; the Company’s ability to maintain historical returns and sustain its historical growth; the Company’s dependence on third parties to market its strategies and provide products or services for the operation of its business; the Company’s ability to retain key investment professionals or members of its senior management team; the Company’s reliance on the technology systems supporting its operations; the Company’s ability to successfully acquire and integrate new companies; the concentration of the Company’s investments in long-only small- and mid-cap equity and U.S. clients; risks and uncertainties associated with non-U.S. investments; the Company’s efforts to establish and develop new teams and strategies; the ability of the Company’s investment teams to identify appropriate investment opportunities; the Company’s ability to limit employee misconduct; the Company’s ability to meet the guidelines set by its clients; the Company’s exposure to potential litigation (including administrative or tax proceedings) or regulatory actions; the Company’s ability to implement effective information and cyber security policies, procedures and capabilities; the Company’s substantial indebtedness; the potential impairment of the Company’s goodwill and intangible assets; disruption to the operations of third parties whose functions are integral to the Company’s ETF platform; the Company’s determination that Victory Capital is not required to register as an “investment company” under the 1940 Act; the fluctuation of the Company’s expenses; the Company’s ability to respond to recent trends in the investment management industry; the level of regulation on investment management firms and the Company’s ability to respond to regulatory developments; the competitiveness of the investment management industry; the dual class structure of the Company’s common stock; the level of control over the Company retained by Crestview GP; the Company’s status as an emerging growth company and a controlled company; and other risks and factors listed under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in the Company’s filings with the SEC.

Such forward-looking statements are based on numerous assumptions regarding Victory Capital’s present and future business strategies and the environment in which it will operate in the future. Any forward-looking statement made in this press release speaks only as of the date hereof.

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.
