Insights

Cohen & Company's Q2 2024 results show a mixed performance. The company reported a $2.3 million net loss, or $1.47 per diluted share, compared to a $2.0 million net income in Q1 2024. The adjusted pre-tax loss of $8.6 million is concerning, especially compared to the $7.7 million adjusted pre-tax income in Q1. However, there are some positive signs:

  • New issue and advisory revenue increased by $5.1 million year-over-year
  • Net trading revenue improved by $1.4 million year-over-year
  • The company maintains its $0.25 quarterly dividend

The principal transactions segment continues to be a drag on performance, with a negative $6.6 million revenue. Investors should monitor the company's efforts to improve this area and the growth of its investment banking operation, CCM, which shows promise with $6.4 million in advisory revenue this quarter.

Cohen & Company's Q2 results reflect the challenging market conditions faced by financial services firms. The company's performance in net trading (+18.6% YoY) and asset management (+29.5% YoY) shows resilience. However, the volatility in principal transactions is a significant concern, swinging from a $12.2 million gain in Q2 2023 to a $6.6 million loss in Q2 2024.

The growth of Cohen & Company Capital Markets (CCM) is a bright spot, with 24 professionals and a promising pipeline. This diversification into investment banking could help offset volatility in other segments. The company's ability to maintain its dividend despite losses demonstrates confidence in its long-term prospects, but investors should closely monitor cash flow and earnings stability in coming quarters.

Lester Brafman, Chief Executive Officer of Cohen & Company, said, “We were pleased with the performance of our full-service boutique investment banking operation, Cohen & Company Capital Markets (“CCM”), which generated $6.4 million of advisory revenue and acted as lead bookrunner on two SPAC IPOs. CCM has grown to 24 professionals, and we intend to continue to opportunistically add investment banking professionals to our CCM team. We are optimistic about CCM’s pipeline and look forward to consistent CCM production through the end of the year.

While our second quarter results were weakened by the impact of ongoing unfavorable mark-to-market adjustments on our principal investing portfolio, we are pleased to have improved the Company’s performance at the adjusted pre-tax loss line by $10.4 million year-to-date versus 2023. We remain confident about our future earnings potential and are focused on enhancing long-term, sustained value for our stockholders, including through continued payment of our quarterly dividend.”

Financial Highlights

  • Net loss attributable to Cohen & Company Inc. was $2.3 million, or $1.47 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to net income of $2.0 million, or $1.28 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and net loss of $6.6 million, or $4.34 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Adjusted pre-tax loss was $8.6 million, or $1.51 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to adjusted pre-tax income of $7.7 million, or $1.37 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and adjusted pre-tax loss of $1.6 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Adjusted pre-tax income (loss) and adjusted pre-tax income (loss) per diluted share are not measures recognized under GAAP. See Note 1 below.
  • Revenues were $10.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $18.6 million for the prior quarter and $22.6 million for the prior year quarter.
    • Net trading revenue was $8.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, down $1.1 million from the prior quarter and up $1.4 million from the prior year quarter. The decrease from the prior quarter was due primarily to lower trading revenue from our corporate group, partially offset by higher trading revenue from our mortgage and new middle markets groups. The increase from the prior year quarter was due primarily to higher trading revenue from our agency, mortgage, and new middle markets groups.
    • Asset management revenue was $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, down $0.6 million from the prior quarter and up $0.5 million from the prior year quarter. The change from both prior quarters was related primarily to deferred performance fees in one of our European funds.
    • New issue and advisory revenue was $6.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, down $17.9 million from the prior quarter and up $5.1 million from the prior year quarter.
    • Principal transactions and other revenue was negative $6.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to negative $18.4 million in the prior quarter and positive $12.2 million in the prior year quarter. In all quarters presented, the principal transactions and other revenue was primarily due to mark-to-market adjustments on the Company’s principal investment portfolio.
  • Compensation and benefits expense during the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased $4.1 million from the prior quarter and increased $0.7 million from the prior year quarter. The number of Company employees was 121 as of June 30, 2024, compared to 116 as of March 31, 2024, and 117 as of June 30, 2023.
  • Interest expense during the three months ended June 30, 2024 was down $0.2 million from both the prior periods. The decrease from the prior quarter was primarily due to lower interest on our redeemable financial instrument, and the decrease from the prior year quarter was primarily due to lower interest on our trust preferred securities debt and our bank credit facility.
  • Loss from equity method affiliates for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $6.0 million, compared to income from equity method affiliates of $29.0 million for the prior quarter and loss from equity method affiliates of $0.5 million for the prior year quarter. Income (loss) from equity method affiliates fluctuates primarily depending on the timing of the closing of the business combinations by the Company’s equity method investees that are sponsors of SPACs, which typically results in changes to the value of founder shares allocable to the Company by the SPAC sponsors.
  • Income tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $0.2 million, compared to income tax expense of $0.5 million in the prior quarter, and income tax expense of $5.6 million in the prior year quarter. The Company will continue to evaluate its operations on a quarterly basis and may adjust the valuation allowance applied against the Company's net operating loss and net capital loss tax assets. Future adjustments could be material and may result in additional tax benefit or tax expense.

Total Equity and Dividend Declaration

  • As of June 30, 2024, total equity was $95.6 million, compared to $91.8 million as of December 31, 2023; the non-convertible non-controlling interest component of total equity was $17.1 million as of June 30, 2024 and $9.6 million as of December 31, 2023. Thus, the total equity excluding the non-convertible non-controlling interest component was $78.5 million as of June 30, 2024, a $3.7 million decrease from $82.2 million as of December 31, 2023.
  • The Company’s Board of Directors has declared a quarterly dividend of $0.25 per share, payable on September 5, 2024, to stockholders of record as of August 22, 2024. The Board of Directors will continue to evaluate the dividend policy each quarter, and future decisions regarding dividends may be impacted by quarterly operating results and the Company’s capital needs.

Cautionary Note Regarding Quarterly Financial Results

Due to the nature of our business, our revenue and operating results may fluctuate materially from quarter to quarter. Accordingly, revenue and net income in any particular quarter may not be indicative of future results. Further, our employee compensation arrangements are in large part incentive-based and, therefore, will fluctuate with revenue. The amount of compensation expense recognized in any one quarter may not be indicative of such expense in future periods. As a result, we suggest that annual results may be the most meaningful gauge for investors in evaluating our business performance.

Non-GAAP Measures

Adjusted pre-tax income (loss) and adjusted pre-tax income (loss) per diluted share

Adjusted pre-tax income (loss) is not a financial measure recognized by GAAP. Adjusted pre-tax income (loss) represents net income (loss) attributable to Cohen & Company Inc., computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding income tax expense (benefit), plus the net income (loss) attributable to the convertible non-controlling interest. Income tax expense (benefit) has been excluded because a pre-tax measurement of enterprise earnings that includes net income (loss) attributable to the convertible non-controlling interest is a useful and appropriate measure of performance. Furthermore, our income tax expense (benefit) has been, and we expect it will continue to be, a substantially non-cash item for the foreseeable future, generated from adjustments in our valuation allowance applied to the Company’s gross deferred tax assets. Convertible non-controlling interest is added back to adjusted pre-tax income because the underlying Cohen & Company, LLC equity units are convertible into Cohen & Company Inc. shares. Adjusted pre-tax income (loss) per diluted share is calculated by dividing adjusted pre-tax income (loss) by diluted shares outstanding, both of which include adjustments used in the corresponding calculation in accordance with GAAP.

We present adjusted pre-tax income (loss) and related per diluted share amounts in this release because we consider them to be useful and appropriate supplemental measures of our performance. Adjusted pre-tax income (loss) and related per diluted share amounts help us to evaluate our performance without the effects of certain GAAP calculations that may not have a direct cash or recurring impact on our current operating performance. In addition, our management uses adjusted pre-tax income (loss) and related per diluted share amounts to evaluate the performance of our enterprise operations. Adjusted pre-tax income (loss) and related per diluted share amounts, as we define them, are not necessarily comparable to similarly named measures of other companies and may not be appropriate measures for performance relative to other companies. Adjusted pre-tax income (loss) should not be assessed in isolation from or construed as a substitute for net income (loss) attributable to Cohen & Company Inc. prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted pre-tax income (loss) is not intended to represent and should not be considered to be a more meaningful measure than, or an alternative to, measures of operating performance as determined in accordance with GAAP.
