Partners Value Investments Inc. Announces Q1 2024 Interim Results
17 May 2024 - 9:30PM
Partners Value Investments Inc. (the “Company”, TSX: PVF.WT,
PVF.PR.V) announced today its financial results for the three
months ended March 31, 2024. All amounts are stated in U.S.
dollars.
The Company recorded a net loss of $175 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to net income
of $242 million in the prior year quarter. The net loss was
primarily due to current period remeasurement losses of $214
million associated with the retractable shares, compared to
remeasurement gains of $226 million in the prior year quarter. The
Company’s retractable common shares are classified as liabilities
due to their cash retraction feature. The remeasurement gains or
losses in a given period are driven by the respective depreciation
or appreciation of the Partners Value Investments L.P. (the
“Partnership”) unit price as the exchangeable shares are recognized
at fair value based on the quoted price of the Partnership’s Equity
LP units. During the quarter, the Partnership unit price increased
by $3.11 compared to a decrease of $3.40 in the prior year
quarter.
Excluding retractable share and warrant
liability remeasurement gains and dividends paid on retractable
shares, Adjusted Earnings for the Company was $34 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to Adjusted Earnings of
$11 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted Earnings were
higher in the current quarter as a result of foreign currency gains
and tax recoveries.
As at March 31, 2024, the market prices of a
Brookfield Corporation (NYSE/TSX: BN) and Brookfield Asset
Management Ltd. (the “Manager”, NYSE/TSX: BAM) share were $41.87
and $42.02, respectively. As at May 16, 2024, the market prices of
a BN and BAM share were $44.64 and $39.97, respectively.
