Westwood Holdings Group, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2023 Results
Most U.S. Value Strategies Outperformed Their Benchmarks
Positive Large Cap Value Flows Despite Worst May for Industry in 15 Years
21st Anniversary of New York Stock Exchange Listing
Dallas, TX, August 2, 2023 – Westwood Holdings Group, Inc. (NYSE: WHG) today reported second quarter 2023 earnings. Significant items for the quarter include:
▪Numerous strategies beat their primary benchmarks, including LargeCap Value, SmallCap Value, MidCap Value, Enhanced Balanced, High Income, Global Real Estate, Select Income and Tactical Growth.
▪Quarterly peer rankings benefited from strong investment performance as High Alpha achieved its second consecutive top eVestment ranking and Platinum, Enhanced Balanced, Global Real Estate and Select Income posted top quartile rankings.
▪Revenues totaled $21.9 million compared with the first quarter's $22.7 million and $15.6 million a year ago. Net income of $2.9 million compared with the first quarter's $0.7 million and a net loss of $0.4 million in 2022's second quarter.
▪The second quarter was impacted by a $4.1 million gain from the change in fair value of contingent consideration.
▪Non-GAAP Economic Earnings of $5.7 million compared with the first quarter's $3.6 million and $1.6 million in last year's second quarter.
▪Westwood held $38.1 million in cash and short-term investments as of June 30, 2023, up $5.8 million from the first quarter. Stockholders' equity totaled $114.1 million and we have no debt.
▪We declared a cash dividend of $0.15 per common share, payable on October 2, 2023 to stockholders of record on September 1, 2023.
Brian Casey, Westwood’s President and CEO, commented, "Today’s investing environment presents plenty of challenges.
But Westwood has a 40 year history with more than half of them as a public company, so we are comfortable confronting and overcoming challenges. We’ve successfully integrated Salient’s talented people and products and now offer even more competitive products to the marketplace. Our Select Income and Global Real Estate strategies scored top 10 percentile rankings in Morningstar while our MLP & Energy Infrastructure mutual fund also stepped up to claim four stars from Morningstar. On the more traditional front, 60% of our US Value products outperformed their benchmarks for the quarter and, despite suffering through the worst month in the industry for large cap value outflows, our institutional Large Cap and SmidCap strategies experienced positive inflows for the quarter.
Distribution remains challenging amid investor uncertainty but our fully integrated sales team is working hard, supported by new technology tools, and set an all-time activity record. We feel sure that the
combination of dedicated salespeople armed with an expanded array of competitive products will pay dividends over the coming months."
Revenues were lower than the first quarter on lower performance-based fees. Revenues were higher than last year's second quarter reflecting higher average AUM following the acquisition of Salient Partners' asset management business during the fourth quarter of last year.
Firmwide assets under management and advisement totaled $16.2 billion at quarter end, consisting of assets under management ("AUM") of $15.0 billion and assets under advisement ("AUA") of $1.2 billion.
Second quarter net income of $2.9 million compared to the first quarter's $0.7 million due to changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, offset by lower revenues and higher income taxes. Diluted earnings (loss) per share ("EPS") of $0.36 compared with $0.09 for the first quarter. Non-GAAP Economic Earnings of $5.7 million, or $0.70 per share, compared with $3.6 million, or $0.45 per share, in the first quarter.
Second quarter net income of $2.9 million compared to last year's second quarter net loss of $0.4 million due to changes in the fair value of contingent consideration and higher revenues, partially offset by higher expenses, primarily employee compensation and benefits expenses, following the acquisition of Salient Partners' asset management business in 2022. Diluted EPS was $0.36 compared with a loss of $0.05 per share for 2022's second quarter. Non-GAAP Economic Earnings were $5.7 million, or $0.70 per share, compared with $1.6 million, or $0.20 per share, in the second quarter of 2022.
Economic Earnings and Economic EPS are non-GAAP performance measures and are explained and reconciled with the most comparable GAAP numbers in the attached tables.
Westwood will host a conference call to discuss second quarter 2023 results and other business matters at 4:30 p.m. Eastern time today. To join the conference call, please register here:

Reconciliation of Comprehensive Income (Loss) Attributable to Westwood Holdings Group, Inc. to Economic Earnings
(in thousands, except per share and share amounts)
(unaudited)
As supplemental information, we are providing non-GAAP performance measures that we refer to as Economic Earnings and Economic EPS. We provide these measures in addition to, not as a substitute for, Comprehensive income (loss) attributable to Westwood Holdings Group, Inc. and earnings (loss) per share, which are reported on a GAAP basis. Our management and Board of Directors review Economic Earnings and Economic EPS to evaluate our ongoing performance, allocate resources, and review our dividend policy. We believe that these non-GAAP performance measures, while not substitutes for GAAP Comprehensive income (loss) attributable to Westwood Holdings Group, Inc. or earnings (loss) per share, are useful for management and investors when evaluating our underlying operating and financial performance and our available resources. We do not advocate that investors consider these non-GAAP measures without also considering financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
We define Economic Earnings as Comprehensive income (loss) attributable to Westwood Holdings Group, Inc. plus non-cash equity-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets and deferred taxes related to goodwill. Although depreciation on fixed assets is a non-cash expense, we do not add it back when calculating Economic Earnings because depreciation charges represent an allocation of the decline in the value of the related assets that will ultimately require replacement. Although gains and losses from changes in the fair value of contingent consideration are non-cash, we do not add or subtract those back when calculating Economic Earnings because gains and losses on changes in the fair value of contingent consideration are considered regular following an acquisition. In addition, we do not adjust Economic Earnings for tax deductions related to restricted stock expense or amortization of intangible assets. Economic EPS represents Economic Earnings divided by diluted weighted average shares outstanding.
