PR Newswire

BOSTON, Aug. 23, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Eaton Vance Corp. (NYSE: EV) today reported earnings per diluted share of $0.58 for the third quarter of fiscal 2017, an increase of 5 percent from $0.55 of earnings per diluted share in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 and a decrease of 6 percent from $0.62 of earnings per diluted share in the second quarter of fiscal 2017.

The Company reported adjusted earnings per diluted share(1) of $0.62 for the third quarter of fiscal 2017, up 11 percent from $0.56 of adjusted earnings per diluted share in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 and unchanged from $0.62 of adjusted earnings per diluted share in the second quarter of fiscal 2017. In the third quarter of fiscal 2017, adjusted earnings differed from earnings under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) by $0.03 per diluted share to reflect $5.4 million of costs associated with retiring $250 million aggregate principal amount of 6.5 percent senior notes due October 2, 2017 (2017 Senior Notes) and $0.01 per diluted share to reflect $3.5 million of structuring fees paid in connection with the $210 million initial public offering of Eaton Vance Floating-Rate 2022 Target Term Trust (2022 Target Term Trust) during the quarter. In the third quarter of fiscal 2016, adjusted earnings differed from GAAP earnings by $0.01 per diluted share to reflect $2.3 million of structuring fees paid in connection with the $215 million initial public offering of Eaton Vance High Income 2021 Target Term Trust (2021 Target Term Trust) in the third fiscal quarter of last year. Adjusted earnings per diluted share matched GAAP earnings per diluted share in the second quarter of fiscal 2017.

Net gains and other investment income related to seed capital investments contributed $0.01 to earnings per diluted share in the third quarters of fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, and $0.02 to earnings per diluted share in the second quarter of fiscal 2017. Costs in connection with employee terminations, special fund expense reimbursements and one-time legal and investigative costs as described below reduced earnings by $0.03 per diluted share in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 and $0.01 per diluted share in the third quarter of fiscal 2016. Such costs were negligible in the second quarter of fiscal 2017.

Consolidated net inflows of $9.1 billion in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 represent a 9 percent annualized internal growth rate in managed assets (consolidated net inflows divided by beginning of period consolidated assets under management). This compares to net inflows of $7.1 billion and 9 percent annualized internal growth in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 and net inflows of $12.9 billion and annualized internal growth of 14 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2017. On the basis of net contribution to management fee revenue, the Company's annualized internal revenue growth rate was 6 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2017, 3 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 and 7 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2017.

Consolidated assets under management were $405.6 billion on July 31, 2017, up 21 percent from $334.4 billion of consolidated managed assets on July 31, 2016 and up 5 percent from $387.0 billion of consolidated managed assets on April 30, 2017. The year-over-year increase in consolidated assets under management reflects net inflows of $34.7 billion and market price appreciation of $26.5 billion over the twelve-month period and $9.9 billion of new managed assets gained in the acquisition of the business assets of Calvert Investment Management, Inc. (Calvert) on December 30, 2016. The sequential quarterly increase in consolidated assets under management reflects net inflows of $9.1 billion and market price appreciation of $9.4 billion in the third quarter of fiscal 2017.

"In the third quarter of fiscal 2017, Eaton Vance continued to deliver robust internal growth in managed assets and management fee revenue," said Thomas E. Faust Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Our distinctive capabilities and strong performance across leading strategies are important differentiators for the Company in what remains a challenging marketplace for investment management."

Average consolidated assets under management were $395.2 billion in the third quarter of fiscal 2017, up 22 percent from $324.9 billion in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 and up 5 percent from $376.5 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2017.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2017 vs. Third Quarter Fiscal 2016

In the third quarter of fiscal 2017, revenue increased 15 percent to $393.7 million from $341.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016. Management fees were up 16 percent, as a 22 percent increase in average consolidated assets under management more than offset lower average management fee rates. Performance fees contributed $0.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to $2.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016. Distribution and service fee revenues collectively were up 10 percent, reflecting higher managed assets in fund share classes that are subject to these fees.

Operating expenses increased 16 percent to $272.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 from $234.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016, reflecting increases in compensation, distribution expense, service fee expense, amortization of deferred sales commissions, fund-related expenses and other operating expenses. The increase in compensation expense reflects higher sales-based and operating income-based bonus accruals, compensation expenses in connection with the Calvert acquisition, higher salaries and benefits associated with other increases in headcount, higher stock-based compensation and compensation costs associated with employee terminations. Costs associated with employee terminations totaled $3.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 versus $1.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016. The increase in distribution expense reflects an increase in closed-end fund structuring fees and higher marketing and promotion costs, primarily driven by higher average managed assets and the acquisition of the Calvert business. The increase in service fee expense reflects higher average assets under management in fund share classes subject to service fee payments. The increase in amortization of deferred sales commissions reflects higher commission amortization for private funds, partially offset by lower Class B and Class C commission amortization. The increase in fund-related expenses reflects higher fund subsidies attributable primarily to the addition of the Calvert funds, higher sub-advisory fees paid, an increase in fund expenses borne by the Company on funds for which it earns an all-in fee and $1.9 million in one-time reimbursements made to the funds by the Company in the quarter. The increase in other operating expenses reflects higher travel, communications, information technology, professional services, facilities, charitable and other corporate expenses. Other operating expenses in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 included approximately $0.6 million of one-time legal and consulting costs in conjunction with investigating the fraudulent activities of a former Eaton Vance Management trader, as publically disclosed in April 2017.

Expenses in connection with the Company's NextShares exchange-traded managed funds (NextShares) initiative were $2.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 and $2.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016.

Operating income was up 13 percent to $121.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 from $106.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016. Operating margin decreased to 30.7 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 from 31.3 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2016. Adjusting to remove the $3.5 million and $2.3 million of closed-end fund structuring fees paid during the third quarters of fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, respectively, operating income was up 14 percent and operating margins decreased to 31.6 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 from 32.0 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2016.
