PR Newswire

LOS ANGELES, May 3, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — B. Riley Financial, Inc. (NASDAQ: RILY), a diversified financial services company, today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021.

First Quarter 2021 Highlights

  • Net income available to common shareholders of $252.9 million, or $8.81 per diluted share
  • Total quarterly revenues of $600.2 million, total adjusted EBITDA (1) of $385.5 million
  • Operating revenues (2) of $333.2 million vs. $182.2 million for Q1 2020
  • Operating adjusted EBITDA (3) of $122.7 million vs. $70.9 million for Q1 2020
  • Investment gains (4) of $266.9 million as of March 31, 2021
  • Completed acquisition of National Holdings, enhancing wealth management and capital markets
  • Declared total quarterly dividend of $3.00 per common share

Bryant Riley, Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer of B. Riley Financial, said: “Our first quarter performance again demonstrates the combined platform’s strength and earnings power, with this period driven by particularly exceptional results from our investment banking group. Our results were enhanced by investment gains of approximately $267 million, coupled with a year-over-year increase of over 80 percent and 70 percent, respectively, for quarterly operating revenues and operating EBITDA. These results reflected the upside from capital markets in addition to steady and recurring contributions from the balance of our businesses.”

Tom Kelleher, Co-Chief Executive Officer of B. Riley Financial, added: “During the quarter, we completed the acquisition of National Holdings and welcomed nearly 700 registered representatives to B. Riley. With $31 billion in combined assets as of March 31, the addition of National to wealth management creates meaningful scale and distribution for our overall platform.”

“We also added a new risk and compliance practice that is in high demand by our customers and enhances our advisory services. As we continue to build on and deepen our core capabilities in capital markets, restructuring and advisory, we are seeing more opportunities and increased collaboration across our businesses,” Kelleher stated. “With the diversity of our platform, we believe B. Riley is exceptionally well-positioned to support our clients and partners through both up and downcycles.”

Riley added, “Our dividend of $3.00 per share approximates our operating free cash flow generated during the quarter and amounts to over $350 million in total capital distributed to our shareholders through dividends and share repurchases since 2017. With a quarter-end balance sheet supported by over $650 million in cash and investments net of debt, we feel a meaningful capital return policy is consistent with our shareholder commitment while allowing us to continue to aggressively invest in our business. We believe in the strength of our people and our platform to continue to deliver for all of our stakeholders in the years ahead.”

Declaration of Common Stock Dividend
The Company’s Board of Directors has approved a total quarterly dividend of $3.00 per share which includes the regular $0.50 dividend and a special dividend of $2.50 per share. The dividend is payable on or about May 28, 2021 to common stockholders of record as of May 17, 2021.

For the first quarter of 2021:

  • Excluding investment gains, Capital Markets operating revenues increased 118% to $207.9 million from $95.5 million from the prior-year period. Segment operating income (7) totaled $106.0 million. Investment banking experienced an exceptionally strong quarter driven by a number of large transactions.
  • Wealth Management revenues of $67.9 million reflected contributions from the acquisition of National Holdings completed on February 25, 2021. Combined client assets under management totaled approximately $31 billion as of March 31, 2021.
  • Auction and Liquidation segment results included revenues of $13.5 million earned from retail store closing projects completed during the quarter. Results for this segment vary from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year due to the episodic impact of large retail liquidation engagements.
  • Financial Consulting revenues increased to $21.4 million compared to revenues of $20.7 million for the prior-year period. Segment income was $3.3 million. Results were primarily driven by bankruptcy restructuring and appraisal engagements.
  • Principal Investments companies, magicJack and United Online, contributed revenues of $20.5 million and segment income of $7.5 million. magicJack and United Online continued to perform above expectations, contributing recurring cash flow to the Company.
  • Brands generated revenues of $4.5 million and segment income of $3.1 million related to the licensing of brand trademarks.

Segment Reclassification
The Company has realigned its segment reporting structure as a result of the National acquisition. Under the new structure, results for wealth management are now reported as a standalone segment. Wealth management was previously reported in the Capital Markets segment. In conjunction with the new reporting structure, the Company has recast its segment presentation for all periods presented.
