Victory Capital Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: VCTR) (“Victory Capital” or “the Company”) today reported financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2023.

“We made significant progress in our strategic growth initiatives during 2023 and continued to validate the effectiveness and resiliency of our unique operating platform,” said David Brown, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We invested in our business via the launching of several new products, enhancing our investment capabilities in several areas, and expanding our technology resources across the platform. Concurrently, we also expanded our profit margin with adjusted EBITDA margin rising 130 basis points to 50.9% for the year.

“In the final quarter of 2023, both long-term gross and net flows improved to their best levels in more than a year, which is encouraging as we begin 2024.

“Our Franchises continued to deliver excellent investment performance for clients. At year end, the percentage of our AUM outperforming benchmarks over the respective 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods was 62%, 84%, and 79%. In addition, 70% of our AUM in mutual funds and ETFs were rated four or five stars overall by Morningstar.

“During the fourth quarter, we repurchased an additional 1.8 million shares, increasing the capital returned to shareholders from repurchases during the year to $158 million. Combined with cash dividends, we returned $243 million to shareholders in 2023, an increase of 21% over the previous year, and the most we have ever returned to our shareholders in our Company’s history.

“Our M&A diligence activities have progressed, and entering the new year we are optimistic about the prospects for executing on a transaction aligned with our strategic growth objectives.

“As always, we continue to focus on serving our clients, which is our top priority.”

Long-term AUM increased by 8.7%, or $13.0 billion, to $163.3 billion at December 31, 2023, compared with $150.3 billion at September 30, 2023.

Fourth Quarter 2023 Compared with Third Quarter 2023

Revenue decreased 1.9% to $205.8 million, in the fourth quarter, compared with $209.7 million in the third quarter, primarily due to lower average AUM, which decreased 2.7% from $161.1 billion at September 30, 2023 to $156.7 billion at December 31, 2023. GAAP operating margin expanded 370 basis points in the fourth quarter to 41.9%, up from 38.2% in the third quarter. The increase was primarily due to the combination of a non-cash $6.3 million difference in amounts recorded to the change in the fair value of consideration payable for acquisitions and a decrease in depreciation and amortization expense as a result of a write-down of an intangible asset in the third quarter. Reflecting these lower non-cash expenses, fourth-quarter GAAP net income increased 6.2% to $55.2 million, up from $52.0 million in the prior quarter. On a per-share basis, GAAP net income increased 6.5% to $0.82 per diluted share in the fourth quarter, versus $0.77 per diluted share in the third quarter.

Adjusted net income with tax benefit decreased 3.5% to $77.0 million in the fourth quarter, down from $79.8 million in the third quarter. On a per-share basis, adjusted net income with tax benefit decreased 2.5% to $1.15 per diluted share in the fourth quarter, from $1.18 per diluted share in the prior quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $107.6 million in the fourth quarter, compared to $107.2 million in the third quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded 120 basis points in the fourth quarter of 2023 to 52.3%, compared with 51.1% in the prior quarter.

Fourth Quarter 2023 Compared with Fourth Quarter 2022

Revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2023 increased 2.1% to $205.8 million, compared with $201.5 million in the same quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher average AUM, which increased 1.4% to $156.7 billion, compared with $154.6 billion in the same quarter last year. Also contributing was a slight increase in revenue realization due to a change in asset mix.

Operating expenses decreased 2.0% to $119.5 million, compared with $121.9 million in last year’s fourth quarter primarily due to a $4.9 million decrease in personnel compensation and benefits and a $3.2 million decrease in depreciation and amortization expense partially offset by a $4.0 million increase in non-cash difference in amounts recorded to the change in the fair value of consideration payable for acquisitions as well as a $3.3 million increase in general and administrative expense due to unwind costs associated with the monetization of the Company’s Swap. GAAP operating margin expanded 240 basis points to 41.9% in the fourth quarter, from 39.5% in the same quarter of 2022. GAAP net income increased 5.6% to $55.2 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter compared with $52.3 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, in the same quarter of 2022.

Adjusted net income with tax benefit increased 3.4% to $77.0 million in the fourth quarter, up from $74.5 million in the same quarter last year. On a per share basis, adjusted net income with tax benefit increased 9.5% to $1.15 per diluted share in the fourth quarter, from $1.05 per diluted share in the same quarter last year. Adjusted EBITDA increased 7.4% to $107.6 million in the fourth quarter, compared with $100.1 million in last year’s same quarter. Year-over-year, adjusted EBITDA margin expanded 260 basis points to 52.3% in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared with 49.7% in the same quarter last year.

Year Ended December 31, 2023 Compared with Year Ended December 31, 2022

Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023, declined 4.0% to $821.0 million, compared with $854.8 million in the same period of 2022. The decrease was primarily due to lower average AUM.

Operating expenses increased 8.1% to $492.6 million for year ended December 31, 2023, compared with $455.7 million in 2022 due to a non-cash $63.8 million difference in amounts recorded from the change in fair value of consideration payable for acquisitions partially offset by a decrease in variable operating expenses from lower average AUM and earnings. GAAP operating margin was 40.0% for the year ended December 31, 2023, a 670 basis point decrease from the 46.7% recorded in 2022. GAAP net income declined 22.6% to $213.2 million for the year ended 2023 compared with $275.5 million in the prior year. GAAP net earnings per share decreased to $3.12 per diluted share in 2023, down from $3.81 per diluted share in 2022.

Adjusted net income with tax benefit decreased 7.0% to $307.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, down from $331.2 million in 2022. On a per share basis, adjusted net income with tax benefit decreased 1.5% to $4.51 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2023, from $4.58 per diluted share in 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2023, adjusted EBITDA declined 1.5% to $418.0 million, compared with $424.2 million in 2022. Year-over-year, adjusted EBITDA margin expanded 130 basis points to 50.9% for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared with 49.6% in the previous year.

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.
