"We are pleased with our revenue growth and particularly with the performance of our Capital Markets & Hotels business globally," said Colin Dyer, President and Chief Executive Officer of Jones Lang LaSalle. "Leasing results outpaced the overall market despite hesitant corporate occupiers and reduced activity in the BRIC countries. We are moving with confidence into the seasonally strong second half of the year," Dyer continued.

Consolidated Performance Highlights:

  • Consolidated fee revenue growth of 7 percent, for the second quarter and year to date, was driven by a 37 percent increase in Capital Markets & Hotels, partially offset by revenue decreases in the BRIC countries. 
  • Property & Facility Management fee revenue growth of 8 percent for the quarter, 7 percent year to date, was led by 14 percent increases from Asia Pacific, adding to the firm's annuity revenue base.
  • Consolidated fee-based operating expenses, excluding restructuring and acquisition charges, were $836 million in the second quarter, up 8 percent, and $1.6 billion year to date, up 7 percent, driven partially by the up-front costs of transitioning significant new corporate outsourcing clients that will begin generating revenue in the second half of 2013, as well as variable compensation from increases in Capital Markets revenue.

Balance Sheet and Net Interest Expense:

  • The firm reduced total net debt by $37 million during the quarter to $833 million consistent with seasonal borrowing and repayment patterns.
  • Net interest expense for the second quarter was $9.0 million compared with $7.5 million a year ago, reflecting the diversification of our low-cost debt to include $275 million of 10-year Senior Notes fixed at 4.4 percent, which were issued in November 2012.
  • During the quarter, the firm made deferred acquisition and earn-out payments of $72 million primarily related to the Staubach and King Sturge acquisitions.
    • The final scheduled payment related to Staubach of $34 million will be made in the third quarter of 2013.

EMEA Performance Highlights:

  • Revenue growth was driven by Capital Markets & Hotels, up 28 percent for the quarter and 37 percent year to date, led by the UK and France.  Revenue growth was partially offset by lower Leasing revenue, particularly in Russia and Germany when compared to 2012 performance that helped drive a 20 percent increase in Leasing revenue for the region in the prior year second quarter.
  • Fee-based operating expenses were $221 million for the quarter, up 4 percent, primarily due to the net increase in transactional revenue activity and increased variable operating costs associated with building pipelines for the second half of the year.
  • Adjusted operating income, which excludes King Sturge amortization, was $14 million for the quarter, compared with $15 million in 2012.  Adjusted operating income margin calculated on a fee revenue basis was 5.8 percent compared with 6.6 percent last year.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $18 million for the quarter, compared with $19 million in 2012.  EBITDA margin calculated on a fee revenue basis was 7.7 percent compared with 8.4 percent last year.

Asia Pacific Performance Highlights:

  • Revenue growth was led by both transactional growth in Capital Markets & Hotels, up 74 percent for the quarter and 44 percent year to date, led by Australia and Singapore, as well as annuity growth in Property & Facility Management, up 14 percent in fee revenue in both periods.  This growth was partially offset by Leasing revenue declines in China, India and Australia.
  • Fee-based operating expenses were $192 million for the quarter, up 15 percent, partially due to increased compensation costs from a larger employee base serving Property & Facility Management clients, as well as commissions earned on Capital Markets revenue.
  • Operating income was $13 million for the quarter, consistent with 2012.  Operating income margin calculated on a fee revenue basis was 6.5 percent, compared with 7.2 percent last year.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $16 million for the quarter, compared with $17 million in 2012.  EBITDA margin calculated on a fee revenue basis was 8.0 percent, compared with 9.0 percent last year.

LaSalle Investment Management Performance Highlights:

  • $1.8 billion of capital was raised during the quarter, primarily in private equity commitments, which will generate growth in assets under management and in advisory fees as the capital is invested.
  • Advisory fees were $55 million for the quarter, which is consistent with quarterly averages in local currency for the last 12 to 18 months.
  • Operating expenses were $51 million for the quarter, up 4 percent from last year on the increase in operating revenue of 5 percent.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $20 million for the quarter, a margin of 28.4 percent, compared with $11 million in 2012, a margin of 17.8 percent.  The year-over-year improvement in total segment revenue and EBITDA was driven by significant equity earnings recognized in the quarter, reflective of positive investment performance for clients.
  • Assets under management were $46.3 billion as of June 30, 2013, compared with $47.7 billion at March 31, 2013, with the decrease driven primarily by foreign currency movements.

 JONES LANG LASALLE INCORPORATED
Financial Statement Notes

1.       Consistent with U.S. GAAP ("GAAP"), gross contract vendor and subcontractor costs ("gross contract costs") which are managed on certain client assignments in the Property & Facility Management and Project & Development Services business lines are presented on a gross basis in both revenue and operating expenses.  Gross contract costs are excluded from revenue and operating expenses in determining "fee revenue" and "fee-based operating expenses", respectively.  Excluding these costs from revenue and operating expenses more accurately reflects how the firm manages its expense base and its operating margins.  Adjusted operating income excludes the impact of restructuring and acquisition charges and intangible amortization related to the King Sturge acquisition.  "Adjusted operating income margin" is calculated by dividing adjusted operating income by fee revenue.  Below are reconciliations of revenue and operating expenses to fee revenue and fee-based operating expenses, as well as adjusted operating income margin calculations, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, and 2012.

3.       Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest expense, net of interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for restructuring and acquisition charges. Although adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures, they are used extensively by management and are useful to investors and lenders as metrics for evaluating operating performance and liquidity. EBITDA is used in the calculations of certain covenants related to the firm's revolving credit facility. However, adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income determined in accordance with GAAP. Because adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are not calculated under GAAP, the firm's adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Below is a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA (in thousands):

4.       Restructuring and acquisition charges are excluded from segment operating results, although they are included for consolidated reporting.  For purposes of segment operating results, the allocation of restructuring charges to the segments has been determined not to be meaningful to investors, so the performance of segment results has been evaluated without allocation of these charges.

5.       Intangible amortization from the second-quarter 2011 King Sturge acquisition is included in depreciation and amortization in the firm's consolidated results, as well as in EMEA's segment results, but has been excluded from adjusted operating income and adjusted net income.

6.       Each geographic region offers the firm's full range of Real Estate Services businesses consisting primarily of tenant representation and agency leasing; capital markets; property management and facilities management; project and development services; and advisory, consulting and valuations services.  The Investment Management segment provides investment management services to institutional investors and high-net-worth individuals.

7.       The consolidated statements of cash flows are presented in summarized form. For complete consolidated statements of cash flows, please refer to the firm's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission shortly.

8.       EMEA refers to Europe, Middle East and Africa.  MENA refers to Middle East and North Africa.  Greater China includes China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan.  Southeast Asia refers to Singapore, Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam. The BRIC countries include Brazil, Russia, India and China.

9.       Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

10.    All percentage variances have been shown as calculated on a local currency basis.
