"We maintained our steady growth in revenue and earnings in the quarter and the year to date," said Colin Dyer, President and Chief Executive Officer. "While we remain appropriately cautious given the ongoing, hesitant recovery in global real estate markets, our healthy pipelines, continued market share gains and committed cost management give us a good base for the fourth quarter and into 2013," Dyer added.

On a fee revenue1 basis, consolidated firm revenue grew 5 percent in local currency, to $878 million, compared with the same period last year.  Consolidated revenue growth was driven by solid Leasing performance and continued growth in Property & Facility Management revenue.  Leasing revenue grew 9 percent in local currency during the quarter, with strong 15 percent growth in the Americas.  Property & Facility Management fee revenue rose 10 percent in local currency, led by the Asia Pacific region, which increased 17 percent in local currency, followed by the Americas, which increased 10 percent. LaSalle Investment Management's advisory fees remained steady in comparison with the prior quarter and were flat in local currency compared with the third quarter of 2011 despite significant asset and portfolio sales over the past 12 months.   LaSalle Investment Management generated $12 million of incentive fees and $11 million of equity earnings during the quarter.    

Consolidated year-to-date revenue rose to $2.7 billion, 10 percent higher than the first nine months of 2011, 13 percent in local currency.  Fee revenue for the first nine months of 2012 was $2.5 billion, an increase of 8 percent, 10 percent in local currency.

Operating expenses, excluding restructuring and acquisition charges, were $877 million for the quarter, an increase of 5 percent, 8 percent in local currency, compared with $833 million in 2011.  The increase was driven by higher variable compensation resulting from improved Leasing revenue as well as higher compensation resulting from increased headcount primarily to service new and expanded Property & Facility Management contracts.  Compensation expense was further impacted by the firm's previously disclosed decision to eliminate its Stock Ownership Program ("SOP"), which resulted in approximately $3 million more compensation expense during the quarter.  Fee-based operating expenses1, excluding restructuring and acquisition charges, were $805 million for the quarter, an increase of 2 percent in U.S. dollars and 5 percent in local currency, compared with $786 million in the third quarter of 2011.

Third-quarter results included $7 million of restructuring and acquisition charges, principally related to integration and retention costs for the second-quarter 2011 acquisition of King Sturge, but also including some severance and lease exit costs in targeted areas of the business in EMEA.  Third-quarter results also included $1 million of intangibles amortization related to the King Sturge acquisition.  

For the year to date, fee-based operating expenses excluding restructuring and acquisition charges were $2.3 billion, an increase of 8 percent from last year, or 10 percent in local currency.  Operating income margin year to date calculated on fee revenue was 7.1 percent, compared with 7.0 percent last year.

Balance Sheet and Dividend

The firm's net debt position, which includes deferred acquisition obligations, decreased by $60 million compared with a year ago, to $767 million.  Outstanding debt on the firm's long-term credit facility was $572 million at the end of the quarter.

The firm's Board of Directors declared a semi-annual dividend of $0.20 per share.  The dividend payment will be made on December 14, 2012, to holders of record at the close of business on November 15, 2012.

Business Segment Performance Highlights

Operating expenses, which include $1 million of King Sturge intangibles amortization, were $230 million for the third quarter, a decrease of 7 percent from the prior year, flat in local currency.  Operating expenses also include nearly $7 million of additional gross contract costs related to the Project & Development Services business line compared with the third quarter of 2011. Fee-based operating expenses decreased 10 percent over the third quarter of 2011 in U.S. dollars, 4 percent in local currency.  The year-over-year decrease was due primarily to lower compensation and operating costs from effective cost rationalization efforts driven by the integration of King Sturge.  On a fee revenue basis, EMEA's adjusted operating income margin, which excludes the King Sturge intangibles amortization, was 2.4 percent in the third quarter compared with 2.5 percent in 2011. 

EBITDA was $9 million, compared with $10 million in the third quarter of 2011. EBITDA margin calculated on a fee revenue basis was 4.4 percent for the third quarter compared with 4.6 percent for the third quarter last year.

Year-to-date fee-based operating expenses were $611 million, compared with $576 million in 2011.  Included in operating expenses was $4 million of intangibles amortization compared with $7 million in the first nine months of 2011. Adjusting for the intangibles amortization related to the merger, operating income margin calculated on a fee revenue basis was 1.8 percent, compared with 0.1 percent in 2011.

EBITDA for the first nine months was $23 million, compared with $14 million in 2011.  EBITDA margin for this period calculated on a fee revenue basis was 3.8 percent, compared with 2.5 percent in the first nine months of 2011.

Asia Pacific Real Estate Services

Revenue for the quarter in Asia Pacific increased 3 percent, 6 percent in local currency, to $206 million, while on a fee revenue basis, revenue increased 9 percent in local currency.  Strong annuity revenue growth in Property & Facility Management, up 17 percent in local currency on a fee revenue basis, helped maintain the region's overall performance despite the slowdown in transactional activity.  Capital Markets & Hotels revenue increased from the third quarter of 2011, up 14 percent in local currency, due to market leading positions across the region, particularly in Singapore.  Year-to-date fee revenue for Asia Pacific increased to $530 million, up 5 percent, 7 percent in local currency.

The region's EBITDA for the quarter was $15 million, compared with $17 million in 2011.  EBITDA margin calculated on a fee revenue basis was 8.3 percent, compared with 9.8 percent for the third quarter last year.

Continued market share gains and annuity revenue growth generated steady performance in the third quarter despite varying market conditions.  The firm's global footprint, leading investment management business and strong balance sheet are proving to be competitive advantages.  The firm remains cautious amid the fragile global economic environment but healthy new business pipelines provide confidence for a solid finish heading into the seasonally strong fourth quarter of the year.

JONES LANG LASALLE INCORPORATED
Financial Statement Notes

1.       Consistent with U.S. GAAP ("GAAP"), gross contract vendor and subcontractor costs ("gross contract costs") which are managed on certain client assignments in the Property & Facility Management and Project & Development Services business lines are presented on a gross basis in both revenue and operating expenses.  Gross contract costs are excluded from revenue and operating expenses in determining "fee revenue" and "fee-based operating expenses", respectively.  Excluding these costs from revenue and operating expenses more accurately reflects how the firm manages its expense base and its operating margins.  Adjusted operating income excludes the impact of restructuring and acquisition charges and intangible amortization related to the King Sturge acquisition.  "Adjusted operating income margin" is calculated by dividing adjusted operating income by fee revenue.  Below are reconciliations of revenue and operating expenses to fee revenue and fee-based operating expenses, as well as adjusted operating income margin calculations, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, and 2011.

3.       Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest expense, net of interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for restructuring and acquisition charges. Although adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures, they are used extensively by management and are useful to investors and lenders as metrics for evaluating operating performance and liquidity. EBITDA is used in the calculations of certain covenants related to the firm's revolving credit facility. However, adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income determined in accordance with GAAP. Because adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are not calculated under GAAP, the firm's adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
