NEW YORK, May 15, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Medley
Management Inc. (NYSE: MDLY) ("MDLY" or the "Company") today
reported its financial results for its first quarter ended
March 31, 2020.
Summary
- Fee earning assets under management were $1.7 billion as of March
31, 2020
- Total assets under management were $3.8
billion as of March 31,
2020
- Total revenues were $7.9 million
for the three months ended March 31,
2020
- U.S. GAAP net loss per share attributable to Medley Management
Inc. was $0.20 for Q1 2020
- Core Net Loss Per Share was $0.07
for Q1 2020
- As previously announced, on May 1,
2020, the Company received a notice of termination from
Sierra Income Corporation of its agreement to merge with the
Company
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended
March 31, 2020
Total revenues were $7.9 million
for the three months ended March 31,
2020 compared to $13.8 million
for the same period in 2019. Revenues consisted of $10.0 million of management fees and other
revenues and an investment loss of $2.1
million. The decrease was due primarily to lower base
management fees as a result of a decrease in fee earning assets
under management, which was mainly driven by a decline in portfolio
valuations, as well as a decline in investment income due to equity
losses and reversal of previously recorded carried interest.
Total expenses from operations were $11.1
million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $11.3 million for the same period in 2019. The
decrease was due primarily to a decline in compensation and
benefits as a result of lower average headcount and discretionary
bonuses, offset by an increase in professional fees. Included in
total expenses are costs associated with our terminated merger of
$1.9 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2020 and 2019,
respectively.
Total other income (expenses), net were $(2.5) million for the three months ended
March 31, 2020 and consisted of
$2.8 million of interest expense and
$0.3 million of dividend and other
income. Total other income (expenses), net were $1.2 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2019 and consisted of
$2.9 million of interest expense,
$0.6 million of dividend income and
$3.5 million of unrealized gain on
shares held of MCC. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we did not hold any shares of
MCC, and as a result there were no unrealized gains or losses
recorded in the period. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, all of the unrealized gain on
shares held of MCC were allocated to redeemable non-controlling
interests in consolidated subsidiaries, which did not have any
impact on the net income (loss) attributed to Medley Management
Inc. and non-controlling interests in Medley LLC.
Net loss attributable to Medley Management Inc. and
non-controlling interests in Medley LLC was $5.7 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2020 compared to a net loss
of $0.4 million for the same period
in 2019. Medley Management Inc.'s net loss per share was
$0.20 for the three months ended
March 31, 2020 compared to a net loss
per share of $0.02 for the same period in 2019.
Pre-Tax Core Net Income (Loss) was $(3.6)
million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $0.8 million for the same period in 2019. Core
Net Income (Loss) Per Share was $(0.07) for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $0.02 for the same period in 2019. Core
EBITDA was $(0.6) million for the
three months ended March 31, 2020
compared to $3.9 million for the same
period in 2019.

Net Income Margin
equals Net income (loss) attributable to Medley Management Inc. and

revenue.
|
(2)
|
Pre-Tax Core Net
Income is calculated as Core Net Income before income taxes. Core
Net Income reflects net income (loss) attributable to
Medley Management Inc. and non-controlling interests in Medley LLC
adjusted to exclude reimbursable expenses associated with the
launch of funds, stock-based compensation associated with
restricted stock units that were granted in connection with our
IPO, non-recurring expenses associated with strategic initiatives,
such as our terminated merger with Sierra, other non-core items and
the income tax expense associated with the foregoing adjustments.
Please refer to the reconciliation of Core Net Income to Net income
(loss) attributable to Medley Management Inc. and non-controlling
interests in Medley LLC in Exhibit B for additional
details.
|

|
Core EBITDA is
calculated as Core Net Income before interest expense, income
taxes, depreciation and amortization. Please refer to the
reconciliation of Core EBITDA to Net income (loss) attributable to
Medley Management Inc. and non-controlling interests in Medley LLC
in Exhibit B for additional details.
|
(4)
|
Core Net Income Per
Share is calculated as Core Net Income, adjusted for the income tax
effect of assuming that all of our pre-tax earnings were subject to
federal, state and local corporate income taxes, divided by
Pro-Forma Weighted Average Shares Outstanding (as defined below).
We assume that all of our pre-tax earnings are subject to federal,
state and local corporate income taxes. In determining corporate
income taxes, we used a combined effective corporate tax rate of
33.0% for all of the periods presented above. Please refer to the
calculation of Core Net Income Per Share in Exhibit C for
additional details.
|
(5)
|
Core Net Income
Margin equals Core Net Income Per Share divided by total revenue
per share.
|
(6)
|
The calculation of
Pro-Forma Weighted Average Shares Outstanding assumes the
conversion by the pre-IPO holders of up to 26,449,973 vested and
unvested LLC Units for 26,449,973 shares of Class A common stock at
the beginning of each period presented, as well as the vesting of
the weighted average number of restricted stock units granted to
employees and directors during each of the periods
presented.

Total fee earning AUM decreased by $402.0
million, or 19%, to $1.7
billion as of March 31, 2020
compared to December 31, 2019, due
primarily to changes in fund value, distributions and debt
repayments representing capital reductions.

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements included herein may contain "forward-looking
statements." Statements other than statements of historical facts
included in this press release may constitute forward-looking
statements and are not guarantees of future performance or results
and involve a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which
change over time. Actual results may differ materially from those
anticipated in any forward-looking statements as a result of a
number of factors, including those described from time to time in
filings by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
including those described in the section "Risk Factors" in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2019. Except as required
by law, the Company undertakes no duty to update any
forward-looking statement made herein. All forward-looking
statements made herein speak only as of the date of this press
release.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We make reference to certain non-GAAP financial measures in this
press release. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial
measures to the most directly comparable financial measures
calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP is contained
in the exhibits attached hereto.
Non-GAAP measures used by management include Pre-Tax Core Net
Income (Loss), Core Net Income (Loss), Core EBITDA, Core Net Income
(Loss) Per Share and Core Net Income Margin. Management believes
that these measures provide analysts, investors and management with
helpful information regarding our underlying operating performance
and our business, as they remove the impact of items management
believes are not reflective of underlying operating performance.
These non-GAAP measures are also used by management for planning
purposes, including the preparation of internal budgets; and for
evaluating the effectiveness of operational strategies.
Additionally, we believe these non-GAAP measures provide another
tool for investors to use in comparing our results with other
companies in our industry, many of whom use similar non-GAAP
measures. There are limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP
financial measures as compared to the use of the most directly
comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure and these measures
supplement and should be considered in addition to and not in lieu
of the results of operations discussed below. Furthermore, such
measures may be inconsistent with measures presented by other
companies.
This press release does not constitute an offer for any Medley
fund.
