Asset managementTotal revenue of $2.3 million
in the second quarter of fiscal 2022 represents a decrease of $0.3
million quarter-over-quarter primarily driven by a decrease net
realized gains from the disposal of investments. Year-to-date total
revenue of $5.0 million represents an increase of $1.9 million
year-over-year primarily related to the increase in management and
servicing fees. Total expenses of $3.1 million in the second
quarter of fiscal 2022 represents an increase of $0.3 million
quarter-over-quarter primarily related to the expansion of the
Company's business. Year-to-date total expenses of $5.9 million
represents an increase of $2.8 million year-over-year primarily
related to increases in professional fees, acquisition integration
costs, interest and credit facility expenses, amortization of
intangible assets and administration fees. Net loss of $0.8 million
in the second quarter of fiscal 2022 was primarily driven by
acquisition integration costs and amortization of
acquisition-related intangible assets. Adjusted net (loss) income
would have been near breakeven, in the second quarter of fiscal
2022, excluding acquisition integration costs and amortization of
acquisition-related intangible assets.
InsuranceAnalysis of the insurance segment to
the same period in the prior year is not relevant given the
acquisition of Ability closed in the fourth quarter of fiscal
2021.
Total revenue of $3.4 million and $(8.6) million for the three
months and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The
revenue increase quarter over quarter is primarily due to new
premium growth as a result of the Company's reinsurance of
multi-year guaranteed annuities ("MYGA") which was successfully
executed during the second quarter. Revenue during the three and
six months ended were partially offset as a result of
mark-to-market losses on portions of the investment portfolio as a
result of increasing market interest rates. Total expenses of
$(6.5) million and $(2.4) million for the three months and six
months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, were primarily driven by
changes in actuarially determined balances.
Our interim consolidated financial statements for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2022 and related management’s discussion
and analysis will be available on the Company’s website
at www.mountlogancapital.ca and on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).
Dividend DeclarationThe Board of Directors of
the Company (the "Board") declared a cash dividend in the amount of
CAD$0.02 per common share to be paid on September 23, 2022 to
shareholders of record on August 24, 2022. This is the fifteenth
consecutive dividend Mount Logan has paid to its shareholders since
closing its plan of arrangement in the fourth quarter of fiscal
2018. This dividend is designated by the Company as an eligible
dividend for the purpose of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and any
similar provincial or territorial legislation. An enhanced dividend
tax credit applies to eligible dividends paid to Canadian
residents.
The declaration and payment by the Company of any future cash
dividends, including the amount thereof, will be at the discretion
of the Board and will depend on, among other things, the financial
condition, capital requirements and earnings of the Company.
Outlook for 2022The Company's financial results
in the second-half of 2022 are expected to benefit from the
addition of new investment advisory agreements, which will increase
our assets under management, and the launch of reinsurance of
multi-year guaranteed annuity policies in the insurance segment. We
continue to assess strategic transactions that will grow our asset
management and insurance business.
