Operating income, as adjusted, was $38.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, an increase of 22 percent from $31.7 million in the second quarter of 2013 and 6 percent from $36.6 million in the first quarter of 2014. The related margin increased to 47 percent from 44 percent in the prior-year quarter and 46 percent from the first quarter of 2014.
Operating income of $22.5 million for the second quarter of 2014 includes $10.1 million in structuring and sales compensation costs related to the successful launch of the new Duff and Phelps Select Energy MLP Fund. Excluding these costs, operating income would have been $32.6 million for the quarter, a 21 percent increase from $26.9 million in the second quarter of 2013 and flat to $32.6 million in the first quarter of 2014.
Net income attributable to common stockholders was $19.5 million or $2.10 per fully diluted common share, which included $0.67 of structuring and compensation costs associated with the closed-end fund launch and $0.16 of identified costs related to new product introductions and several other discrete business activities. Net income was $15.4 million, or $1.91 per share in the second quarter of 2013 and $21.9 million or $2.34 per share in the first quarter of 2014. Unrealized gains and (losses) on marketable securities were $0.23, $(0.22), and $0.09 per share in the second quarter of 2014, the second quarter of 2013, and the first quarter of 2014, respectively. Average shares outstanding increased to 9.3 million in the second quarter of 2014 from 8.1 million in the second quarter of 2013 as a result of the company's equity offering in September 2013.

Management Commentary
"We had very strong results this quarter with our highest levels of assets, revenues and operating income, as adjusted," said George R. Aylward, president and chief executive officer. "We had our 21st consecutive quarter of positive net mutual fund flows and maintained an above industry average open-end mutual fund organic growth rate. The results for the quarter were impacted by numerous business activities to grow and enhance the company, including the successful launch of a closed-end fund."
"Fund sales and net flows this quarter reflected the diversity of our product offerings as we had positive fund net flows in each of the major assets classes of fixed income, international equity, domestic equity, and alternatives. The successful closed-end fund launch and the introduction of our liquid alternative mutual funds further diversified our product offerings," Aylward said. "The launch of the $0.5 billion Duff and Phelps Select Energy MLP Fund increased our total closed-end offerings to nine funds representing 13 percent of long-term assets."
The company declared its first quarterly cash dividend, continued to repurchase shares, increased the size of its seed capital program, and ended the quarter with $423.1 million or $46 per share of cash and investments. "Our strong balance sheet provides significant operating flexibility as we balance investments in the growth of the business with a meaningful return of capital to shareholders."
"We are pleased with the continued strong performance of the business, as demonstrated by the growth in assets, operating income, as adjusted, and returns to shareholders," Aylward said. "The diversity of mutual fund sales reinforces the breadth of our product offerings and the advantages of our business model, and our product introductions will provide additional opportunities for us to leverage our distribution and investment management capabilities to maintain our strong levels of growth."
Asset Flows and Assets Under Management
Total and long-term assets under management increased as a result of cumulative positive mutual fund net flows, market appreciation and the successful launch of a new closed-end fund.
- Assets under management were $61.4 billion at June 30, 2014, an increase of 17 percent from $52.7 billion at June 30, 2013 and 6 percent from $58.0 billion at March 31, 2014. The change from the prior year is a result of $7.0 billion of market appreciation and $2.4 billion of positive net flows; the sequential change is a result of $2.5 billion of market appreciation and $1.0 billion of net flows, which includes $0.5 billion from the new closed-end fund. Long-term assets increased by 18 percent to $59.9 billion from $50.9 billion a year earlier.
- Average assets under management were $59.0 billion for the period ended June 30, 2014, an increase of 11 percent from $53.1 billion and 3 percent from $57.2 billion in the second quarter of 2013 and the first quarter of 2014, respectively.
- Closed-end fund assets ended the quarter at $7.5 billion, an increase of 17 percent from $6.4 billion at June 30, 2013. The increase is attributable to the launch of the Duff and Phelps Select Energy MLP Fund in the quarter and cumulative market appreciation. At June 30, 2014, closed-end funds represented approximately 13 percent of long-term assets and 16 percent of run-rate total investment management fees.
- Total sales were $4.0 billion in the second quarter, compared with $5.6 billion in the second quarter of 2013 and $4.2 billion in the first quarter of 2014. The decline from the prior year primarily reflects the high level of sales in the second quarter of 2013.
- Total positive net flows were $1.0 billion in the second quarter of 2014, compared with $2.5 billion in the prior-year quarter and $(0.5) billion in the first quarter of 2014. The increase in net flows over the prior quarter reflects higher mutual fund flows, the impact of the closed-end fund launch, and the prior quarter redemption of a single low-fee option overlay account.
- Long-term open-end mutual fund sales were $3.1 billion in the second quarter of 2014, a decrease of 38 percent from $5.1 billion in the second quarter of 2013, which had high levels of sales in emerging market and fixed income strategies that were in higher demand at the time. Fund sales were down 14 percent from $3.6 billion in the first quarter of 2014.
- Long-term open-end funds generated $0.8 billion of positive net flows in the second quarter, compared with $2.6 billion in the second quarter of 2013 and $0.3 billion in the first quarter of 2014. This was the company's 21st consecutive quarter of positive net long-term open-end fund flows and represented an annualized organic growth rate, which is calculated as annualized net flows divided by beginning of period assets, of 8 percent.
Revenue
Revenues increased from prior periods primarily as a result of the continued growth of open-end mutual fund assets from cumulative net flows and market appreciation.
- Revenues increased 17 percent to $112.7 million in the second quarter of 2014 from $96.1 million in the second quarter of 2013 and by 5 percent on a sequential basis, primarily as a result of the company's growing asset base.
- Revenues, as adjusted, increased by 16 percent to $83.2 million in the first quarter from $71.9 million in the prior-year quarter and were up from $80.1 million in the first quarter of 2014. The increase from the prior year is a result of the higher asset levels and an increase in the average net fee rate.
- Investment management fees increased 16 percent to $74.5 million from $64.5 million in the second quarter of 2013 and by 4 percent on a sequential basis from $71.8 million. The increase from the prior-year quarter primarily reflects an 18 percent increase in average long-term open-end fund assets. The average net fee rate increased to 50.7 basis points in the second quarter of 2014 from 48.7 in the prior-year quarter.
- Administration and transfer agent fees in the second quarter increased 16 percent to $13.9 million from $12.1 million in the prior year and by 7 percent from $13.1 million in the prior quarter as a result of higher average long-term open-end mutual fund assets.
Expenses
The increase in operating expenses reflects the overall growth of the business and costs related to the launch of a closed-end fund.
- Total operating expenses were $90.2 million in the second quarter, compared with $69.3 million in second quarter of 2013 and $75.2 million in the first quarter of 2014, reflecting increases in distribution and administration and other operating expenses.
- Operating expenses, as adjusted, which exclude certain charges including distribution and administration expenses, stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, and closed-end fund launch costs, were $44.5 million in the second quarter, compared with $40.2 million in the second quarter of 2013 and $43.5 million in the first quarter of 2014. The increase from the prior year primarily reflects higher employment costs and an increase in other operating expenses.
- Employment expenses were $35.5 million in the second quarter, which included $0.5 million of sales compensation for the closed-end fund launch and the final Newfleet transition costs of $0.4 million. Employment expenses were $32.9 million in the second quarter of 2013 and $35.0 million in the first quarter of 2014. The change from the prior year reflects the increase in personnel costs resulting from the growth of the business. The sequential increase reflects higher variable compensation which offset lower payroll taxes.
- The year-over-year and sequential quarterly increases in distribution and administration expenses to $39.2 million from $24.3 million in the second quarter of 2013 and $27.7 million in the first quarter of 2014 primarily reflect the increase in mutual fund assets and $9.6 million in costs associated with the closed-end fund launch.
- Other operating expenses were $13.1 million in the second quarter, which included $2.1 million in organizational, start-up and distribution costs associated with the launch of new funds; expenses due to several other discrete business activities; and the annual equity grants to the Board of Directors. In addition, there was $0.5 million related to the transition of middle- and back-office systems. Other operating expenses were $10.3 million in the prior-year quarter and $10.5 million in the prior quarter.
Investment Capabilities
As previously reported, the company introduced new products during the second quarter with an initial public offering of a closed-end fund and the registration of an unconstrained fixed income fund.
- The Duff & Phelps Select Energy MLP Fund Inc.1 (NYSE: DSE), a closed-end fund managed by Duff & Phelps Investment Management Co., raised $485 million in its initial public offering on June 26, 2014, increasing the company's assets under management for its nine closed-end funds to $7.5 billion. The fund is expected to add financial leverage, which is limited to 33 percent of total assets, during the third quarter.
- The company has filed a registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the Virtus Strategic Income Fund2, an unconstrained bond fund that will leverage the existing multi-sector fixed-income capabilities of the company's Newfleet Asset Management affiliate. The fund will give investors broad exposure to bond markets by employing a strategy that will invest across 14 fixed income sectors while allowing the manager to underweight, eliminate or short securities or sectors they feel are significantly overvalued, and dynamically adjust the duration of the portfolio based on views of the interest rate environment. Newfleet managed $12.8 billion in open-end, closed-end, variable insurance, UCITS, and institutional strategies at June 30, 2014.
Balance Sheet, Liquidity and Income Taxes
Cash and investments were $423.1 million at June 30, 2014 compared with $126.1 million at June 30, 2013 and $388.2 million at March 31, 2014. Cash and investments increased $34.9 million or 9% over the sequential quarter as a result of strong cash flows from operations partially offset by closed-end fund launch costs and share repurchases.
Seed capital invested in new investment strategies was $223.9 million at June 30, 2014 compared with $51.4 million on June 30, 2013 and $124.1 million at March 31, 2014. As previously reported, the company deployed $129.9 million of capital to seed three new liquid alternative funds in April.
Working capital was $186.2 million at June 30, 2014, compared with $67.1 million at June 30, 2013 and $270.9 million at March 31, 2014. The decrease in working capital on a sequential basis reflects increased seed capital investments, share repurchases, a dividend declaration, and closed-end fund launch costs that were partially offset by strong operating results.
On May 15, 2014, the company announced its first quarterly cash dividend to shareholders of $0.45 per share, payable on August 14, 2014 to shareholders of record at the close of business on July 31, 2014.
The company repurchased 66,913 shares of common stock in the second quarter at a cost of $12.5 million or an average of $186.77 per share and had 283,087 shares available to repurchase under its current authorization as of June 30, 2014. In addition to shares repurchased, the company returned capital of $1.4 million through the net settlement of restricted stock.
The effective tax rate for the quarter was 38.0 percent, compared with 38.7 percent for the second quarter of 2013 and 39.2 percent for the first quarter of 2014. The change from prior periods is primarily related to the impact of consolidated sponsored investment products.

The company reports its financial results on a Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) basis; however management believes that evaluating the company's ongoing operating results may be enhanced if investors have additional non-GAAP financial measures. Management reviews non-GAAP financial measures to assess ongoing operations and considers them only to be additional metrics for both management and investors to consider the company's financial performance over time, as noted in the footnotes below. Management does not advocate that investors consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

(1) Revenues and expenses related to consolidated sponsored investment products have been excluded to reflect revenues and expenses of the company prior to the consolidation of these products.
|
|
(2) Revenues, as adjusted, is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated by netting distribution and administration expenses from GAAP revenues. Management believes Revenues, as adjusted, provides useful information to investors because distribution and administration expenses are costs that are generally passed directly through to external parties.
|
|
(3) Stock-based compensation expense includes equity issued under incentive plans and equity granted to Board of Directors.
|
|
(4) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, closed-end fund launch costs comprise structuring fees of $9.6 million payable to underwriters and sales-based compensation of $0.5 million.
|
|
(5) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the company incurred $0.5 million of costs associated with the transition of middle- and back-office systems to a third-party provider.
|
|
(6) For the three months ended June 30, 2014, June 30, 2013, and March 31, 2014, Newfleet transition expenses include $0.1 million, $0.1 million, and $0.1 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, Newfleet transition expenses include $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation.

|
(7) Operating expenses, as adjusted, is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes provides investors with additional information because of the nature of the specific excluded operating expenses. Specifically, management adds back amortization attributable to acquisition-related intangible assets as this may be useful to an investor to consider our operating results with the results of other asset management firms that have not engaged in significant acquisitions. In addition, we add back restructuring and severance charges as we believe that operating expenses exclusive of these costs will aid comparability of the information to prior reporting periods. We believe that because of the variety of equity awards used by companies and the varying methodologies for determining stock-based compensation expense, excluding stock-based compensation enhances the ability of management and investors to compare financial results over periods. Distribution and administrative expenses are excluded for the reason set forth above.
|
|
(8) Operating income, as adjusted, and operating margin, as adjusted, are calculated using the basis of revenues, as adjusted, and operating expenses, as adjusted, as described above.
|
|
The above measures should not be considered as substitutes for any measures derived in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Exclusion of items in our non-GAAP presentation should not be considered as an inference that these items are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring.
