Cohen & Steers Reports Fourth Quarter And Full Year 2015 Results

CNS

NEW YORK, Jan. 20, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Cohen & Steers, Inc. (NYSE: CNS) reported net income attributable to common stockholders of $5.9 million, or $0.13 per share (diluted and basic), for the quarter ended December 31, 2015, compared with $15.7 million, or $0.34 per diluted share and $0.35 per basic share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2014. Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $81.7 million, compared with $81.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2014.

The fourth quarter 2015 results included an unrealized, non-operating loss of $8.2 million that, due to a change in accounting classification, has been reflected on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. In addition, the fourth quarter 2015 results included a $2.8 million other-than-temporary impairment.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, the company recorded net income attributable to common stockholders of $64.6 million, or $1.41 per diluted share and $1.42 per basic share, compared with $75.5 million, or $1.65 per diluted share and $1.69 per basic share, for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Revenue

Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $81.7 million, an increase of $2.0 million from $79.7 million for the third quarter of 2015. Higher average assets under management in the quarter resulted in the following increases in investment advisory and administration fees:

  • Open-end mutual fund revenue increased $1.3 million to $34.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2015; and
  • Institutional account revenue increased $0.9 million to $21.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2015.

Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $328.7 million, an increase of $14.7 million from $313.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Expenses

Expenses for the fourth quarter of 2015 were $51.3 million, an increase of $3.1 million from $48.2 million for the third quarter of 2015. The change was primarily due to:

  • Higher employee compensation and benefits expenses of $1.5 million, primarily attributable to higher incentive and production compensation; and
  • Higher general and administrative expenses of $1.2 million, primarily due to increased hosted and sponsored conferences and organizational expenses related to the launch of the Cohen & Steers Low Duration Preferred and Income Fund (LPX) during the fourth quarter of 2015.

Expenses for the year ended December 31, 2015 were $201.1 million, an increase of $9.1 million from $192.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Operating Margin

The company's operating margin decreased to 37.2% for the fourth quarter of 2015 compared with 39.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The operating margin was 38.8% for each of the years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

Non-operating Income

Non-operating loss for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $12.1 million, compared with a non-operating loss of $3.0 million for the third quarter of 2015. The change was primarily due to an unrealized loss of $8.2 million on a seed investment that, due to third-party shareholder redemptions, was reclassified from available-for-sale investments to equity method investments during the quarter. In addition, non-operating loss for the quarter included a $2.8 million other-than-temporary impairment.

The non-operating loss for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $14.8 million, compared with non-operating income of $73,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2015 was 67.9%, compared with 40.3% for the third quarter of 2015. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to the recording of a valuation allowance on the tax benefit associated with the unrealized losses on the company's seed investments during the quarter.

The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2015 was 42.9%, compared with 38.0% for the year ended December 31, 2014.
