Fiscal Fourth Quarter 2022 Financial Summary

Revenues decreased 4% to $2.09 billion from $2.18 billion in the same year-ago quarter due to a decrease in gold ounces sold and lower average selling prices of silver, offset by an increase in silver ounces sold and forward sales, and higher average selling prices of gold.

The Direct-to-Consumer segment contributed 23% and 30% of the consolidated revenue in the fiscal fourth quarters of 2022 and 2021, respectively. JMB’s revenue represented 21% of the consolidated revenues for the fiscal fourth quarter of 2022 compared with 28% for the prior year fiscal fourth quarter.

Gross profit decreased 22% to $67.8 million (3.24% of revenue) from $87.1 million (4.00% of revenue) in the same year-ago quarter. The decrease in gross profit was due to lower gross profits earned from the Wholesale Sales & Ancillary Services Segment and Direct-to-Consumer segments. The Direct-to-Consumer segment contributed 57% and 50% of the consolidated gross profit in the fiscal fourth quarters of 2022 and 2021, respectively. Gross profit contributed by JMB represented 46% of the consolidated gross profit in the fiscal fourth quarter of 2022 and 43% of the consolidated gross profit for the prior year fiscal fourth quarter.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased 24% to $20.7 million from $16.7 million in the same year-ago quarter. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $2.2 million of expenses incurred by JMB, higher insurance costs of $1.7 million and increased compensation expense (including performance-based accruals) of $1.0 million, partially offset by lower computer-related costs of $0.6 million.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased 61% to $3.2 million from $8.3 million in the same year-ago quarter. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily due to a $5.1 million decrease in amortization of acquired intangibles related to JMB.

Interest income increased 8% to $5.7 million from $5.2 million in the same year-ago quarter. The aggregate increase in interest income was primarily due to higher interest income earned by our Secured Lending segment partly offset by lower other finance product income.

Interest expense increased 10% to $5.7 million from $5.2 million in the same year-ago quarter. The increase in interest expense was primarily driven by a $0.6 million increase associated with our Trading Credit Facility and Notes Payable (including amortization of debt issuance costs), and a $0.5 million increase related to product financing arrangements, offset by $0.6 million of lower interest costs from liabilities on borrowed metals.

Earnings from equity method investments increased 57% to $2.6 million from $1.6 million in the same year-ago quarter. The increase reflects our higher percentage ownership in our equity method investments in comparison to the prior year.

Net income attributable to the Company totaled $37.3 million or $1.52 per diluted share, compared to net income of $51.0 million or $2.14 per diluted share in the same year-ago quarter, adjusted for the effect of the two-for-one stock split that occurred in June 2022.

Adjusted net income for the three months ended June 30, 2022 totaled $50.6 million, compared to $72.3 million in the same year-ago quarter. The decrease is principally due to lower net income before provision for income taxes of $17.0 million and $5.2 million of lower amortization of acquired intangibles offset by $0.4 million of higher acquisition costs and $0.1 million of higher depreciation expense.

EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2022 totaled $50.3 million, compared to $72.3 million in the same year-ago quarter. The decrease is principally due to lower net income of $13.6 million. See the reconciliation of net income to EBITDA for further details.

Full Year 2022 Financial Summary

Revenues increased 7% to $8.16 billion from $7.61 billion in the prior fiscal year due to an increase in silver ounces sold, higher average selling prices of gold, and higher forward sales, offset by a decrease in gold ounces sold and lower average selling prices of silver.

The Direct-to-Consumer segment contributed 26% and 11% of the consolidated revenue in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in revenue from the Direct-to-Consumer segment reflects the acquisition of JMB in March 2021 and the growth of the segment’s customer base resulting from increased advertising and marketing efforts. JMB’s revenue represented 24% of the consolidated revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 compared with 9% of the consolidated revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, since its results were included beginning only in March of the prior year.

Gross profit increased 25% to $261.8 million (3.21% of revenue) in fiscal year 2022 from $210.2 million (2.76% of revenue) in the prior year. The increase in gross profit was due to higher gross profits earned from the Direct-to-Consumer segment, offset by lower gross profits earned from the Wholesale Sales & Ancillary Services Segment. The Direct-to-Consumer segment contributed 56% and 34% of the consolidated gross profit in fiscal year 2022 and 2021, respectively. JMB contributed 46% to the consolidated gross profit for the fiscal year 2022 compared with 22% in fiscal year 2021, since its results were included beginning only in March of the prior year.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 60% to $76.6 million from $48.0 million in the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $21.6 million of expenses incurred by JMB, increased compensation expense (including performance-based accruals) of $3.7 million, higher insurance costs of $2.6 million, and increased consulting and professional fees of $1.5 million, partially offset by lower computer-related costs of $0.6 million.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased 153% to $27.3 million from $10.8 million in fiscal year 2021. The increase was primarily due to $16.4 million of higher amortization of acquired intangibles related to JMB.

Interest income increased 18% to $21.8 million from $18.5 million in the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to higher interest income of $2.9 million earned by our Secured Lending segment due to higher average monthly secured loan balances outstanding as compared to the prior fiscal year, and $0.4 million of higher other finance product income. The number of secured loans increased 21% to 2,271 as of June 30, 2022 from 1,881 as of June 30, 2021.

Interest expense increased 11% to $22.0 million from $19.9 million in fiscal year 2021. The increase in interest expense was primarily driven by $1.3 million associated with our Trading Credit Facility and Notes Payable (including amortization of debt issuance costs), $1.2 million related to product financing arrangements, $0.5 million of loan servicing fees, offset by a decrease of $0.9 million associated with liabilities on borrowed metals.

Earnings from equity method investments decreased 56% to $6.9 million from $15.5 million in the prior fiscal year. The net decrease of $8.6 million includes a $11.7 million decrease related to JMB, a former equity method investment which is now reported by the Company as a wholly owned subsidiary, offset by increased earnings of $3.1 million from our other equity method investments.

Net income attributable to the Company decreased $27.1 million to $132.5 million from net income of $159.6 million in the prior fiscal year. Prior year net income attributable to the Company included a one-time $26.3 million remeasurement gain on the Company’s pre-existing equity interest in JMB in connection with its acquisition. Excluding this remeasurement gain in fiscal year 2021, net income attributable to the Company decreased $0.8 million compared to the prior fiscal year.

Earnings per diluted share totaled $5.45 for fiscal year 2022 compared with $8.90 for fiscal year 2021. Diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 were 24.3 million compared to 17.9 million in the prior fiscal year, which has been adjusted for the effect of the two-for-one stock split that occurred in June 2022.

Adjusted net income before provision for income taxes for fiscal year 2022 totaled $195.0 million, an increase of $15.1 million or 8% compared to $179.9 million in fiscal year 2021. The increase is primarily due to $16.3 million of higher amortization of acquired intangibles and $0.2 million higher depreciation expense offset by $1.3 million of lower acquisition costs and lower net income before provision for income taxes of $26.4 million, principally due to the prior year remeasurement gain of $26.3 million.

EBITDA for fiscal year 2022 totaled $193.9 million, a decrease of $11.1 million, compared to $205.0 million in the prior fiscal year. The decrease is primarily due to lower net income of $27.8 million, principally due to the decrease in the remeasurement gain of $26.3 million. See the reconciliation of net income to EBITDA for further details.

Management Commentary  

“Our fiscal year 2022 marked another impressive year of financial performance and progress in growing our industry-leading fully integrated precious metals platform,” said A-Mark CEO Greg Roberts. “Gross profit and adjusted net income before provision for income taxes grew on a year-over-year basis 25% and 8%, respectively, contributing to a return on equity of 27%, demonstrating the strong financial results our business is capable of generating. Our revenues exceeded $8.1 billion, we shipped over 1 million packages from our Logistics fulfillment center, and we increased our year-over-year active customers in our Direct-to-Consumer segment by over 270%.

“Our fourth quarter also had some notable highlights with 31.9 million ounces of silver sold within our Wholesale Sales and Ancillary Services segment and production at SilverTowne Mint exceeding 11.4 million ounces, more than the Mint has produced in any recent full year. Fiscal 2022 was our first year of full ownership of the Mint and combined with our strategic partnership with Sunshine Minting, we benefitted greatly throughout the year from a steady source of product during periods of supply constraints.

“Reflecting on the year, I am proud of our many accomplishments: further integrating JM Bullion (“JMB”) during the first full year post acquisition; launching the CyberMetals platform enabling precious metals digital transactions; and increasing our ownership of two strategic investments - in Pinehurst Coins, a leading precious metals broker and one of the nation’s largest e-commerce retailers of certified coins, and in Silver Gold Bull, a leading Canadian e-commerce precious metals retailer. We also closed our three-year committed $350 million credit facility, the largest revolving credit line in the Company’s history, launched our carbon-neutrality initiative, and as I mentioned previously, grew our Direct-to-Consumer segment total customer base by 13% to 2 million and our active customer base by 270%.

“We continue to evaluate opportunities to expand our geographic presence and market reach while creating value for our stockholders. We remain optimistic that our industry-leading fully integrated precious metals platform and proven business model will allow us to realize growth and profitability over the long term.”

About A-Mark Precious Metals

Founded in 1965, A-Mark Precious Metals, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMRK) is a leading fully integrated precious metals platform that offers an array of gold, silver, platinum, palladium, and copper bullion, numismatic coins and related products to wholesale and retail customers via a portfolio of channels. The company conducts its operations through three complementary segments: Wholesale Sales & Ancillary Services, Direct-to-Consumer, and Secured Lending. The company’s global customer base spans sovereign and private mints, manufacturers and fabricators, refiners, dealers, financial institutions, industrial users, investors, collectors, and e-commerce and other retail customers.

A-Mark’s Wholesale Sales & Ancillary Services segment distributes and purchases precious metal products from sovereign and private mints. As a U.S. Mint-authorized purchaser of gold, silver, and platinum coins since 1986, A-Mark purchases bullion products directly from the U.S. Mint for sale to customers. A-Mark also has longstanding distributorships with other sovereign mints, including Australia, Austria, Canada, China, Mexico, South Africa and the United Kingdom. The company sells more than 200 different products to e-commerce retailers, coin and bullion dealers, financial institutions, brokerages and collectors. In addition, A-Mark sells precious metal products to industrial users, including metal refiners, manufacturers and electronic fabricators.

Through its A-M Global Logistics subsidiary, A-Mark provides its customers with a range of complementary services, including managed storage options for precious metals as well as receiving, handling, inventorying, processing, packaging, and shipping of precious metals and coins on a secure basis. A-Mark’s mint operations, which are conducted through its wholly owned subsidiary Silver Towne Mint, enable the company to offer customers a wide range of proprietary coin and bar offerings and, during periods of market volatility when the availability of silver bullion from sovereign mints is often product constrained, preferred product access.

A-Mark’s Direct-to-Consumer segment operates as an omni-channel retailer of precious metals, providing access to a multitude of products through its wholly owned subsidiaries, JM Bullion and Goldline. JM Bullion is a leading e-commerce retailer of precious metals and operates five separately branded, company-owned websites targeting specific niches within the precious metals market: JMBullion.com, ProvidentMetals.com, Silver.com, GoldPrice.org, SilverPrice.org. JMB also owns CyberMetals, an online platform where customers can purchase and sell fractional shares of digital gold, silver, platinum and palladium bars in a range of denominations. Goldline markets precious metals directly to the investor community through various channels, including television, radio and telephonic sales efforts. A-Mark also holds minority ownership interests in two additional direct-to-consumer brands.

The company operates its Secured Lending segment through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Collateral Finance Corporation (CFC) and AM Capital Funding. Founded in 2005, CFC is a California licensed finance lender that originates and acquires loans secured by bullion and numismatic coins. Its customers include coin and precious metal dealers, investors and collectors. AM Capital Funding was formed in 2018 for the purpose of securitizing eligible secured loans of CFC.

A-Mark is headquartered in El Segundo, CA and has additional offices and facilities in the neighboring Los Angeles area as well as in Dallas, TX, Las Vegas, NV, Winchester, IN, and Vienna, Austria. For more information, visit www.amark.com.

Important Cautions Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in this press release that relate to future plans, objectives, expectations, performance, events and the like are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These include statements regarding future macroeconomic conditions and demand for precious metal products, and the Company’s ability to effectively respond to changing economic conditions. Future events, risks and uncertainties, individually or in the aggregate, could cause actual results or circumstances to differ materially from those expressed or implied in these statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ include the following: the failure to execute the Company’s growth strategy; greater than anticipated costs incurred to execute this strategy; changes in the current international political climate, which has favorably contributed to demand and volatility in the precious metals markets; potential adverse effects of the current problems in the national and global supply chains; increased competition for the Company’s higher margin services, which could depress pricing; the failure of the Company’s business model to respond to changes in the market environment as anticipated; changes in consumer demand and preferences for precious metal products generally; potential negative effects that inflationary pressure may have on our business; the failure of our investee companies to maintain, or address the preferences of, their customer bases; general risks of doing business in the commodity markets; the continued effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the eventual return to normalized business and economic conditions; and the strategic, business, economic, financial, political and governmental risks and other Risk Factors described in in the Company’s public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The words "should," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "foresee," "plan" and similar expressions and variations thereof identify certain of such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the dates on which they were made. Additionally, any statements related to future improved performance and estimates of revenues and earnings per share are forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

Use and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial and Liquidity Measures

In addition to presenting the Company’s financial results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, management believes the following non-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating the Company’s operating performance: “adjusted net income before provision for income taxes” and “earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization” (“EBITDA”). Management believes the “adjusted net income before provision for income taxes” non-GAAP financial measure assists investors and analysts by facilitating comparison of period-to-period operational performance on a consistent basis by excluding items that management does not believe are indicative of the Company’s core operating performance. The items excluded from this financial measure may have a material impact on the Company’s financial results. Certain of those items are non-recurring, while others are non-cash in nature. Management believes the EBITDA non-GAAP liquidity measure assists investors and analysts by facilitating comparison with other publicly traded companies. Non-GAAP measures do not have standardized definitions and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, the comparable measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K to be filed with the SEC. Management encourages investors and others to review the Company’s financial information in its entirety and not to rely on any single financial or liquidity measure.

In the Company’s reconciliation from its reported U.S. GAAP “net income before provision for taxes” to its non-GAAP “adjusted net income before provision for income taxes”, the Company eliminates the impact of the following four amounts: (i) acquisition expenses; (ii) amortization expenses related to intangible assets acquired; (iii) depreciation expense; and (iv) remeasurement gain. The Company’s reconciliations from its reported U.S. GAAP “net cash provided by (used in) operating activities” to its non-GAAP “EBITDA” are provided below and are also included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K to be filed with the SEC for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022.
