Moelis & Company (NYSE:MC) today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The Firm's second quarter GAAP revenues were $264.6 million as compared with $179.9 million in the prior year period. On an Adjusted basis, the Firm’s second quarter revenues of $264.6 million increased 45% from the prior year period. The Firm reported second quarter GAAP net income of $14.9 million, or $0.17 per share (diluted). On an Adjusted basis, the Firm reported net income of $14.5 million and $0.18 per share (diluted) for the second quarter of 2024, which compares with a net loss of $2.6 million, or ($0.04) per share, in the prior year period.

GAAP revenues for the first half of 2024 were $482.1 million. On an Adjusted basis, the Firm's first half revenues of $482.1 increased 31% from the prior year period. The Firm reported first half GAAP net income of $32.4 million, or $0.39 million per share (diluted). On an Adjusted basis, the Firm reported net income of $32.8 million, or $0.40 per share (diluted) in the first half of 2024, as compared with net income of $1.2 million, or $0.02 per share (diluted), in the prior year period. GAAP and Adjusted net income in the first half of 2024 include net tax benefits of approximately $0.14 per share (diluted) related to the settlement of share-based awards.

"Our second quarter results reflect improved performance across all of our major product areas and increasing momentum in our business. We remain focused on serving our clients and executing on our growth strategy as the transaction environment improves," said Ken Moelis, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

The Firm’s revenues and net income can fluctuate materially depending on the number, size and timing of completed transactions as well as other factors. Accordingly, financial results in any particular quarter may not be representative of future results over a longer period of time.

Currently 92% of the operating partnership (Moelis & Company Group LP) is owned by the corporate partner (Moelis & Company) and is subject to corporate U.S. federal and state income tax. The remaining 8% is owned by other partners of Moelis & Company Group LP and is primarily subject to U.S. federal tax at the partner level (certain state, local and foreign income taxes are incurred at the company level). The Adjusted results included herein apply certain adjustments from our GAAP results, including the assumption that 100% of the Firm’s operating result was taxed at our corporate effective tax rate. We believe the Adjusted results, when presented together with comparable GAAP results, are useful to investors to compare our performance across periods and to better understand our operating results. A reconciliation between our GAAP results and our Adjusted results is presented in the Appendix to this press release.

Revenues

We earned GAAP revenues of $264.6 million in the second quarter of 2024, as compared with $179.9 million in the prior year period. On an Adjusted basis, we earned revenues of $264.6 million in the second quarter of 2024, as compared with $182.2 million in the prior year period, representing an increase of 45%. The increase in second quarter revenues is attributable to an increase in transaction completions across all key products as compared with the prior year period.

For the first half of 2024, we earned GAAP revenues of $482.1 million, as compared with $367.7 million in the prior year period. On an Adjusted basis, we earned revenues of $482.1 million, in the first half of 2024, as compared with $367.5 million in the prior year period, or an increase of 31%. The increase in revenues in both current year periods is attributable to an increase in transaction completions across all key product areas as compared with the prior year period.

We continued to execute on our strategy of organic growth, and since our last earnings release, we hired three Managing Directors in Technology, Industrials and Capital Structure Advisory.

Total operating expenses on a GAAP basis were $244.5 million for the second quarter of 2024. On an Adjusted basis, operating expenses were $245.4 million for the second quarter of 2024, as compared with $189.0 million in the prior year period. For the first half of 2024, total operating expenses on a GAAP basis were $456.2 million. On an Adjusted basis, operating expenses were $455.9 million for the first half of 2024 as compared with $378.2 million in the prior year period. The increase in operating expenses in both current year periods is attributable to increased compensation and benefits and non-compensation expenses, as compared with the prior year periods.

Compensation and benefits expenses on a GAAP basis were $197.9 million for the second quarter of 2024, as compared with $145.8 million in the prior year period. Adjusted compensation and benefits expenses were $198.7 million for the second quarter of 2024, as compared with $145.8 million in the prior year period. For the first half of 2024, compensation and benefits expenses on a GAAP basis were $362.3 million, as compared with $294.0 million in the prior year period. On an Adjusted basis, compensation and benefits expenses for the first half of 2024 were $362.0 million, as compared with $294.0 million in the prior year period. The increase in compensation and benefits expenses during both current year periods is primarily attributable to increased headcount and a higher bonus expense accrual, as a result of higher revenues earned, as compared with the prior year periods.

Non-compensation expenses on a GAAP and Adjusted basis were $46.6 million for the second quarter of 2024, as compared with GAAP non-compensation expenses of $43.7 million and Adjusted non-compensation expenses of $43.2 million in the prior year period. The increase in non-compensation expenses in the second quarter of 2024 is primarily attributable to greater headcount as compared with the prior year period. For the first half of 2024, GAAP and Adjusted non-compensation expenses were $93.9 million as compared with GAAP non-compensation expenses of $84.6 million and Adjusted non-compensation expenses of $84.2 million in the prior year period. The increase in non-compensation expenses in the first half of 2024 is primarily attributable to increased headcount as compared to the prior year period.

Other income (expenses) on a GAAP basis was $1.7 million for the second quarter of 2024, as compared with expense of $5.6 million in the prior year period. On an Adjusted basis, other income for the second quarter of 2024 was $2.7 million, as compared with $2.2 million in the prior year period.

For the first half of 2024, other income (expenses) on a GAAP basis was $5.9 million as compared with expense of $3.9 million in the prior year period. On an Adjusted basis, other income for the first half of 2024 was $6.0 million as compared with $6.5 million in the prior year period.

Provision for Income Taxes

The corporate partner (Moelis & Company) currently owns 92% of the operating partnership (Moelis & Company Group LP) and is subject to corporate U.S. federal and state income tax on its allocable share of earnings. The remaining 8% of activity is subject to certain state, local and foreign income taxes (including New York City Unincorporated Business Tax), which is accounted for at the partner level through the noncontrolling interests. For Adjusted purposes, we have assumed that 100% of the Firm’s second quarter 2024 operating results were taxed at our corporate effective tax rate resulting in a net tax expense of $7.4 million.

Capital Management and Balance Sheet

Moelis & Company continues to maintain a strong financial position, and as of June 30, 2024, we held cash and liquid investments of $191.3 million and had no funded debt or goodwill on our balance sheet.

The Board of Directors of Moelis & Company declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.60 per share. The $0.60 per share will be paid on September 26, 2024, to common stockholders of record on August 5, 2024.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements, which reflect the Firm’s current views with respect to, among other things, its operations and financial performance. You can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “outlook,” “believes,” “expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “target,” “approximately,” “predicts,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates” or the negative version of these words or other comparable words. Such forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions and estimates and subject to various risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. We believe these factors include, but are not limited to, those described under "Risk Factors" discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, subsequent reports filed on Form 10-Q and our other filings with the SEC. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this release. In addition, new risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you should not rely upon forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. The Firm undertakes no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). From time to time, the Company may disclose certain “non-GAAP financial measures” in the course of its earnings releases, earnings conference calls, financial presentations and otherwise. The Securities and Exchange Commission defines a “non-GAAP financial measure” as a numerical measure of historical or future financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that is subject to adjustments that effectively exclude, or include amounts from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company are provided as additional information to analysts, investors and other stakeholders in order to provide them with greater transparency about, or an alternative method for assessing our financial condition, operating results, or capital adequacy. Adjusted results are a non-GAAP financial measure which provide additional information on management’s view of operating results. These measures are not in accordance with, or a substitute for GAAP, and may be different from or inconsistent with non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Whenever we refer to a non-GAAP financial measure, we will also generally define it or present the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, along with a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measure we reference and such comparable GAAP financial measure.

The Company’s Adjusted revenues includes amounts reflected within other income (expenses) which are considered the equivalent of revenues for compensation. Such adjustments may include gains on founder investments where our employees and the Moelis advisory platform contributed meaningfully to the value creation; or the mark-to-market impact of equity instruments held by the Company that were originally received as payment for our banking services and included in revenues. We believe these adjustments are useful to allow comparability of period-to-period operating performance and compensation levels.

The Company’s Adjusted compensation and benefits expenses may include adjustments reflected within other income (expenses) associated with compensation awards forfeited or returned to the Company by former employees. Management views the credits associated with such forfeitures as an offset to compensation and benefits expenses since the Firm will utilize the forfeited economics to recruit and or retain talent. We believe the netted presentation of forfeiture credits and compensation expenses is useful to allow comparability of period-to-period operating performance.

The Company’s Adjusted non-compensation expenses and other income (expenses) may exclude certain one-time items that reduce the comparability of our operating performance as well as the amounts related to revenues and compensation and benefits expenses discussed above and adjustments to our provision for income taxes discussed below. Such adjustments increase the comparability of our financial performance across reporting periods and versus our peers.

The Company’s Adjusted provision (benefit) for income taxes is adjusted to illustrate the result as if 100% of the Firm’s income is being taxed at our corporate effective tax rates for the periods presented. Adjusted provision (benefit) for income taxes periodically includes the tax impact related to the settlement of share-based awards, the reclassification of TRA liability adjustments, or adjustments to our deferred tax assets and liabilities that occur in connection with new tax legislation. Such adjustments increase the comparability of our financial performance across reporting periods and versus our peers.

The Company’s Adjusted basic and diluted shares of Class A common stock outstanding is presented for each period as if all outstanding Class A partnership units have been exchanged into Class A common stock. The Adjusted presentation helps analysts, investors, and other stakeholders understand the effect of the Firm’s ownership structure on its results, including the impact of all the Firm’s income becoming subject to corporate-level tax.
