CONSOLIDATED U.S. GAAP RESULTS
The Company recorded U.S. GAAP net loss for the three months
ended March 31, 2018 of $(2.8) million compared with U.S. GAAP net loss
of $(5.4) million for the three
months ended March 31, 2017.
The decrease of $2.6 million in U.S.
GAAP net loss was primarily driven by an increase in revenues of
$2.6 million and a decrease in
expenses of $0.1 million offset by a
decrease in other income of $0.1
million. The U.S. GAAP results include the results of
funds and structured financing entities which are consolidated by
the Company (the "Consolidated Funds").
Total revenues increased by $2.6
million primarily due to a $2.0
million increase in management fee income and a $1.0 million increase in income of Consolidated
Funds, offset by a decrease of $0.2
million in incentive income and a decrease of $0.2 million in reimbursement revenue from
certain ZAIS Managed Entities for research and data services
expenses.
Management fee income increased by $2.0
million primarily due to the increase in the number of CLOs
managed by ZAIS and fees earned from a ZAIS CLO beginning in
June 2017 which previously had its
fees waived because all of its subordinated notes were collectively
owned by certain vehicles managed by ZAIS. Income of
Consolidated Funds related to ZAIS Zephyr A-6 LP's ("Zephyr A-6")
investments in unconsolidated ZAIS managed CLOs increased by
$1.0 million.
Incentive income decreased by $0.2
million primarily due to lower performance related to ZAIS
Managed Entities that crystalized incentive fees during the
respective quarters.
Total expenses decreased by $0.1
million period over the period. Compensation and
benefits decreased by $1.3 million
primarily due to a $1.0 million
decrease in equity compensation expense relating to the vesting, in
March 2017, of equity units
previously awarded to certain employees and a $0.5 million decrease primarily due to reduced
bonus expense. These favorable variances were offset by
$0.1 million increase in severance
costs.
General, administrative and other expenses ("G&A") increased
by $0.8 million primarily due to an
increase of $0.8 million in legal
fees as a result of an increase of $0.6
million related to a strategic review and an increase of
$0.2 million due to payments made to
the Company's former general counsel who was retained as a senior
legal advisor that commenced in April 2017. G&A expenses
also increased by $0.4 million due to
investment banking services in connection with a potential take
private transaction between the Company and Z Acquisition. These
unfavorable variances were offset by a decrease of $0.2 million in expenses relating to research and
data services borne by ZAIS Group and paid directly by ZAIS Group
to vendors which are reimbursable from certain ZAIS Managed
Entities and a decrease of $0.2
million in other expenses.
Expenses of Consolidated Funds increased by $0.4 million primarily due to interest expense
for the master repurchase agreement entered into by Zephyr A-6 in
October 2017. Zephyr A-6 did not have any expenses related to
repurchase agreements during the three months ended March 31, 2017.
Other income decreased by $0.1
million primarily due to a $0.7
million decrease in net gain (loss) on investments in
affiliates and a $0.6 million
decrease in net gain (loss) on beneficial interest of
collateralized financing entity, offset by a $1.0 million increase in net gain (loss) on
Consolidated Funds' investments and a $0.1
million increase in other income.
Net gain (loss) on investments in affiliates decreased by
$0.7 million primarily due to losses
of $0.6 million relating to the two
ZAIS Managed Entities in which ZAIS Group had made investments that
carry first loss risk (on March 12,
2018 ZAIS Group sent notice to terminate its management
contracts for these two ZAIS Managed Entities effective
March 16, 2018). The
$0.6 million decrease in net gain
(loss) on beneficial interest of consolidated collateralized
financing entity relates to Zephyr A-6's investment in ZAIS CLO
5. ZAIS CLO 5 was a Consolidated Fund for the period from
October 26, 2016 through August 10, 2017, the date which ZAIS CLO 5 was
deconsolidated due to the sale of all of the Company's beneficial
interests in ZAIS CLO 5. Net gain (loss) on Consolidated
Funds' investments increased by $1.0
million driven by the net realized and unrealized gains and
losses from Zephyr A-6's investments in ZAIS CLOs during the
warehouse period and unconsolidated ZAIS CLOs.
CONSOLIDATED NON-U.S. GAAP RESULTS
Please see the discussion of "Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures",
including the definitions of net income (loss) (excluding
Consolidated Funds of ZAIS Group) and Adjusted EBITDA, and
reconciliations of such non-U.S. GAAP financial measures to the
respective U.S. GAAP net income (loss) measures for the periods
discussed above at the end of this press release.
The Company's U.S. GAAP net income (loss) and non-U.S. GAAP
measures of income (loss) may fluctuate materially depending upon
the performance of ZAIS Managed Entities as well as other factors.
Accordingly, the U.S. GAAP net income (loss) and non-U.S. GAAP
measures of income (loss) in any particular period should not be
expected to be indicative of future results.
LIQUIDITY & CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of March 31, 2018, the Company
had cash and cash equivalents, excluding cash and cash equivalents
of Consolidated Variable Interest Entities, of $30.9 million and no debt obligations, excluding
liabilities of Consolidated Variable Interest Entities.
FIRST QUARTER 2018 SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
The Company's First Quarter 2018 Supplemental Information –
March 31, 2018, is available on
ZAIS's website at www.zaisgroupholdings.com. To access the
information, go to the "ZAIS Shareholders" section of the
website.
USE OF NON-U.S. GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
In addition to the results presented in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"), this press
release includes certain non-U.S. GAAP financial information,
including net income (loss) (excluding Consolidated Funds of ZAIS
Group) and Adjusted EBITDA (and per share measures). Net
income (loss) (excluding Consolidated Funds of ZAIS Group) is a
non-U.S. GAAP financial measure that the Company defines as U.S.
GAAP net income (loss) excluding the consolidating effects of the
Consolidated Funds of ZAIS Group. Adjusted EBITDA is a
non-U.S. GAAP financial measure that the Company defines as U.S.
GAAP net income (loss) excluding consolidating effects of the
Consolidated Funds of ZAIS Group, equity-based compensation,
severance, taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses and
foreign currency translation adjustments.
The Company believes that providing investors with this non-U.S.
GAAP financial information, in addition to the related U.S. GAAP
measures, gives investors greater transparency to the information
used by management in its financial and operational
decision-making. However, because net income (loss) (excluding
Consolidated Funds of ZAIS Group) and Adjusted EBITDA are
incomplete measures of the Company's financial performance and
involve differences from net income (loss) computed in accordance
with U.S. GAAP, they should be considered along with, but not as
alternatives to, the Company's net income (loss) computed in
accordance with U.S. GAAP as a measure of the Company's financial
performance. In addition, because not all companies use
identical calculations, the Company's presentation of net income
(loss) (excluding Consolidated Funds of ZAIS Group) and Adjusted
EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly-titled measures of
other companies.
