Colliers International Group Inc. (NASDAQ and TSX: CIGI)
(“Colliers” or the “Company”) today announced operating and
financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.
All amounts are in US dollars.
For the third quarter ended September 30, 2024,
revenues were $1.18 billion, up 12% (11% in local currency) and
Adjusted EBITDA (note 1) was $154.6 million, up 7% (6% in local
currency) versus the prior year quarter. Adjusted EPS (note 2) was
$1.32, up 11% from $1.19 in the prior year quarter. Third quarter
adjusted EPS would have been approximately $0.01 lower excluding
foreign exchange impacts. The GAAP operating earnings were $109.7
million as compared to $70.9 million in the prior year quarter. The
GAAP diluted net earnings per share were $0.73, up 38% from $0.53
in the prior year quarter. The third quarter GAAP diluted net
earnings per share EPS would have been approximately $0.01 lower
excluding foreign exchange impacts.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024,
revenues were $3.32 billion, up 7% (7% in local currency) and
adjusted EBITDA (note 1) was $419.0 million, up 6% (6% in local
currency) versus the prior year period. Adjusted EPS (note 2) was
$3.46, relative to $3.36 in the prior year period. Adjusted EPS
were not significantly impacted by changes in foreign exchange
rates. The GAAP operating earnings were $267.8 million compared to
$168.3 million in the prior year period, favourably impacted by the
reversal of contingent consideration expense related to an
acquisition. The GAAP diluted net earnings per share were $1.73
compared to a diluted net loss per share of $0.04 in the prior year
period. The GAAP diluted net earnings per share were not
significantly impacted by changes in foreign exchange rates.
As previously announced, this quarter, Colliers
re-aligned its operating segments to better reflect the value and
growth potential of its three complementary engines – Real Estate
Services, Engineering, and Investment Management. The Real Estate
Services segment encompasses the former Americas, EMEA, and Asia
Pacific regions, excluding engineering and project management,
which are now reported within the new Engineering segment. The
Investment Management segment remains unchanged. Comparative
periods have been recast to reflect this revised segmentation.
“This quarter, Colliers delivered solid growth
across all three segments,” said Jay S. Hennick, Chairman & CEO
of Colliers. “Engineering grew by 21%, driven by strategic
acquisitions. In Real Estate Services, Capital Markets revenues
rose a strong 17%, exceeding expectations. Investment Management
revenue, excluding pass-through performance fees, was up slightly
though fundraising remained below expectations. AUM was up $2.4
billion during the quarter reaching $98.8 billion, up from $96.4
billion on June 30, 2024.”
“We completed the acquisition of Englobe during
the quarter, creating a substantial new growth platform in Canada.
After the quarter, we further added GWAL in Canada, and Pritchard
Francis and TTM in Australia. With a robust M&A pipeline, we
are well positioned to continue growing and strengthening our
operations for the long-term.”
“Over the past decade, step by step, Colliers
has transformed into a uniquely differentiated global professional
services and investment management firm. We have relentlessly
focused on expanding and diversifying our global operations, while
adding new growth engines that deliver recurring revenue streams.
Today, these recurring revenues contribute over 70% of our
earnings, bringing unprecedented balance, resilience and
predictability – all of which drive greater shareholder value.”
“With experienced leadership, significant inside
ownership, and a proven 30-year track record of delivering 20%
annualized returns, we are well positioned to sustain mid-to
high-single digit growth going forward. As we enter 2025, we
anticipate additional upside from an improving capital markets
environment, expanded investment strategies and capital raising
opportunities in Investment Management and continued incremental
growth through acquisitions across all three segments,” he
concluded.

(1) Investment
Management local currency revenues, excluding pass-through
performance fees (carried interest), were up 1% and 3% for the
three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024,
respectively. |
Third quarter consolidated revenues were up 11%
on a local currency basis driven by robust growth across all
service lines, particularly Engineering and Capital Markets.
Consolidated internal revenue growth measured in local currencies
was 5% (note 4) versus the prior year quarter.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024,
consolidated revenues increased 7% on a local currency basis, led
by Engineering. Consolidated internal revenues measured in local
currencies were up 4% (note 4).
Segmented Third Quarter
ResultsReal Estate Services revenues totalled $734.9
million, up 9% (8% in local currency) versus $677.3 million in the
prior year quarter on growth across all services lines, as
expected. Capital Markets transaction volumes were up meaningfully
against a low base in the prior year, particularly in the Americas
and Asia Pacific. Leasing continued to build on last quarter’s
momentum, notably in EMEA and the US with several large office
leasing transactions during the quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $64.7
million, up 8% (7% in local currency) compared to $59.7 million in
the prior year quarter, with continued aggressive investment in
recruiting in strategic markets. The GAAP operating earnings were
$42.4 million, relative to $40.8 million in the prior year
quarter.
Engineering revenues totalled $316.6 million, up
22% (21% in local currency) compared to $259.9 million in the prior
year quarter. Revenue growth was primarily driven by the recent
acquisition of Englobe. Adjusted EBITDA was $39.8 million, up 23%
(24% in local currency) compared to $32.3 million in the prior year
quarter. The GAAP operating earnings were $19.7 million relative to
$20.0 million in the prior year quarter and were primarily impacted
by higher intangible asset amortization expense related to recent
acquisitions.
Investment Management revenues were $127.4
million, relative to $118.7 million in the prior year quarter, up
7% (7% in local currency) including historical pass-through
performance fees of $7.8 million relative to $0.6 million in the
prior year quarter. Excluding performance fees, revenue was up 1%
(1% in local currency) driven by new investor capital commitments,
which were lower than expected – a trend anticipated to continue
through year-end. Adjusted EBITDA was $56.0 million, up 1% (1% in
local currency) compared to the prior year quarter with continued
investments in new products and strategies as well as additional
investments to scale fundraising efforts. The GAAP operating
earnings were $67.2 million in the quarter versus $20.4 million in
the prior year quarter, with the variance largely attributable to
the reversal of contingent consideration expense related to a
fundraising condition in a recent acquisition. AUM was up $2.4
billion during the quarter to $98.8 billion from $96.4 billion as
of June 30, 2024.
Unallocated global corporate costs as reported
in Adjusted EBITDA were $5.9 million in the third quarter relative
to $2.3 million in the prior year quarter, primarily from
additional claim reserves taken in the Company’s captive insurance
operation. The corporate GAAP operating loss for the quarter was
$19.6 million compared to $10.3 million in the prior year
quarter.
Outlook for 2024The Company has
revised its 2024 outlook to reflect year-to-date results and
updated fundraising expectations in its high-margin Investment
Management segment for the remainder of the year.

NotesNon-GAAP
Measures1. Reconciliation of net earnings to Adjusted
EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net earnings,
adjusted to exclude: (i) income tax; (ii) other income; (iii)
interest expense; (iv) loss on disposal of operations; (v)
depreciation and amortization, including amortization of mortgage
servicing rights (“MSRs”); (vi) gains attributable to MSRs; (vii)
acquisition-related items (including contingent acquisition
consideration fair value adjustments, contingent acquisition
consideration-related compensation expense and transaction costs);
(viii) restructuring costs and (ix) stock-based compensation
expense. We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our own operating
performance and our ability to service debt, as well as an integral
part of our planning and reporting systems. Additionally, we use
this measure in conjunction with discounted cash flow models to
determine the Company’s overall enterprise valuation and to
evaluate acquisition targets. We present Adjusted EBITDA as a
supplemental measure because we believe such measure is useful to
investors as a reasonable indicator of operating performance
because of the low capital intensity of the Company’s service
operations. We believe this measure is a financial metric used by
many investors to compare companies, especially in the services
industry. This measure is not a recognized measure of financial
performance under GAAP in the United States, and should not be
considered as a substitute for operating earnings, net earnings or
cash flow from operating activities, as determined in accordance
with GAAP. Our method of calculating Adjusted EBITDA may differ
from other issuers and accordingly, this measure may not be
comparable to measures used by other issuers. A reconciliation of
net earnings to Adjusted EBITDA appears below.

2. Reconciliation of net earnings and diluted
net earnings per common share to adjusted net earnings and Adjusted
EPS
Adjusted EPS is defined as diluted net earnings
per share adjusted for the effect, after income tax, of: (i) the
non-controlling interest redemption increment; (ii) loss on
disposal of operations; (iii) amortization expense related to
intangible assets recognized in connection with acquisitions and
MSRs; (iv) gains attributable to MSRs; (v) acquisition-related
items; (vi) restructuring costs and (vii) stock-based compensation
expense. We believe this measure is useful to investors because it
provides a supplemental way to understand the underlying operating
performance of the Company and enhances the comparability of
operating results from period to period. Adjusted EPS is not a
recognized measure of financial performance under GAAP, and should
not be considered as a substitute for diluted net earnings per
share from continuing operations, as determined in accordance with
GAAP. Our method of calculating this non-GAAP measure may differ
from other issuers and, accordingly, this measure may not be
comparable to measures used by other issuers. A reconciliation of
net earnings to adjusted net earnings and of diluted net earnings
per share to adjusted EPS appears below.
Similar to GAAP diluted EPS, Adjusted EPS is
calculated using the “if-converted” method of calculating earnings
per share in relation to the Convertible Notes, which were fully
converted or redeemed by June 1, 2023. As such, the interest (net
of tax) on the Convertible Notes is added to the numerator and the
additional shares issuable on conversion of the Convertible Notes
are added to the denominator of the earnings per share calculation
to determine if an assumed conversion is more dilutive than no
assumption of conversion. The “if-converted” method is used if the
impact of the assumed conversion is dilutive. The “if-converted”
method is dilutive for the Adjusted EPS calculation for all periods
where the Convertible Notes were outstanding.

3. Reconciliation of net cash flow from
operations to free cash flow
Free cash flow is defined as net cash flow from
operating activities plus contingent acquisition consideration
paid, less purchases of fixed assets, plus cash collections on AR
Facility deferred purchase price less distributions to
non-controlling interests. We use free cash flow as a measure to
evaluate and monitor operating performance as well as our ability
to service debt, fund acquisitions and pay dividends to
shareholders. We present free cash flow as a supplemental measure
because we believe this measure is a financial metric used by many
investors to compare valuation and liquidity measures across
companies, especially in the services industry. This measure is not
a recognized measure of financial performance under GAAP in the
United States, and should not be considered as a substitute for
operating earnings, net earnings or cash flow from operating
activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our method of
calculating free cash flow may differ from other issuers and
accordingly, this measure may not be comparable to measures used by
other issuers. A reconciliation of net cash flow from operating
activities to free cash flow appears below.

4. Local currency revenue and Adjusted EBITDA
growth rate and internal revenue growth rate measures
Percentage revenue and Adjusted EBITDA variances
presented on a local currency basis are calculated by translating
the current period results of our non-US dollar denominated
operations to US dollars using the foreign currency exchange rates
from the periods against which the current period results are being
compared. Percentage revenue variances presented on an internal
growth basis are calculated assuming no impact from acquired
entities in the current and prior periods. Revenue from acquired
entities, including any foreign exchange impacts, are treated as
acquisition growth until the respective anniversaries of the
acquisitions. We believe that these revenue growth rate
methodologies provide a framework for assessing the Company’s
performance and operations excluding the effects of foreign
currency exchange rate fluctuations and acquisitions. Since these
revenue growth rate measures are not calculated under GAAP, they
may not be comparable to similar measures used by other
issuers.
5. Assets under management
We use the term assets under management (“AUM”)
as a measure of the scale of our Investment Management operations.
AUM is defined as the gross market value of operating assets and
the projected gross cost of development assets of the funds,
partnerships and accounts to which we provide management and
advisory services, including capital that such funds, partnerships
and accounts have the right to call from investors pursuant to
capital commitments. Our definition of AUM may differ from those
used by other issuers and as such may not be directly comparable to
similar measures used by other issuers.
6. Adjusted EBITDA from recurring revenue
percentage
Adjusted EBITDA from recurring revenue
percentage is computed on a trailing twelve-month basis and
represents the proportion of Adjusted EBITDA (note 1) that is
derived from Engineering, Outsourcing and Investment Management
service lines. All these service lines represent medium to
long-term duration revenue streams that are either contractual or
repeatable in nature. Adjusted EBITDA for this purpose is
calculated in the same manner as for our debt agreement covenant
calculation purposes, incorporating the expected full year impact
of business acquisitions and dispositions.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated
Statements of
Earnings(1) Acquisition-related items
include contingent acquisition consideration fair value
adjustments, contingent acquisition consideration-related
compensation expense and transaction
costs.(2) Diluted EPS is calculated using the
“if-converted” method of calculating earnings per share in relation
to the Convertible Notes, which were fully converted or redeemed by
June 1, 2023. As such, the interest (net of tax) on the Convertible
Notes is added to the numerator and the additional shares issuable
on conversion of the Convertible Notes are added to the denominator
of the earnings per share calculation to determine if an assumed
conversion is more dilutive than no assumption of conversion. The
“if-converted” method is used if the impact of the assumed
conversion is dilutive. The “if-converted” method was dilutive for
the three months ended September 30, 2023 and anti-dilutive for the
nine months ended September 30, 2023.(3) See
definition and reconciliation above.
