The RMR Group Inc. Announces Second Quarter Fiscal 2021 Results

Net Income Attributable to The RMR Group Inc. of $0.30 Per Diluted Share and Adjusted Net Income Attributable to The RMR Group Inc. of $0.37 Per Diluted Share

The RMR Group Inc. (Nasdaq: RMR) today announced its financial results for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2021.

Adam Portnoy, President and Chief Executive Officer, made the following statement regarding the second quarter fiscal 2021 results:

“In the second fiscal quarter, RMR generated total management and advisory services revenues of $42.0 million, which represents our third straight quarter of service revenue growth from early pandemic lows and primarily comes from growth at our Managed Equity REITs. Throughout the pandemic, we have remained focused as an organization on the recovery and repositioning of our clients, which includes recent efforts such as strategically amending the Five Star Senior Living and Diversified Healthcare Trust management agreements, assisting RMR Mortgage Trust and Tremont Mortgage Trust with their agreement to merge into a larger more diversified commercial mortgage REIT and successfully assisting Sonesta in taking on the management of almost 200 Service Properties Trust owned hotels.

We are also cautiously optimistic that we may begin earning incentive fees this calendar year, as Office Properties Income Trust began accruing a $20.8 million estimated incentive fee for calendar 2021 based on its total return per share out-performance relative to its peers. RMR’s balance sheet remains strong, with over $376 million of cash on hand and no debt, leaving us well positioned as we assess capital allocation strategies.”

Second Quarter Fiscal 2021 Highlights:

  • As of March 31, 2021, The RMR Group LLC had $31.8 billion of assets under management, or AUM, compared to $32.1 billion as of March 31, 2020.
  • Total management and advisory services revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, were $42.0 million, including $0.6 million of incentive business management fees from Tremont Mortgage Trust, compared to $44.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.

Reconciliations to U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP:

Adjusted net income attributable to The RMR Group Inc., EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted EBITDA less Cash Tax Obligation are non-GAAP financial measures. The GAAP financial measure that is most directly comparable to adjusted net income attributable to The RMR Group Inc. is net income attributable to The RMR Group Inc. The GAAP financial measure that is most directly comparable to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less Cash Tax Obligation is net income and the GAAP financial measure that is most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA Margin is Operating Margin, which represents operating income divided by total management and advisory services revenues. Reconciliations of net income attributable to The RMR Group Inc. determined in accordance with GAAP to adjusted net income attributable to The RMR Group Inc., and of net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as well as calculations of Operating Margin, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted EBITDA less Cash Tax Obligation for each of the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 are presented later in this press release.

Assets Under Management:

The calculation of AUM primarily includes: (i) the gross book value of real estate and related assets, excluding depreciation, amortization, impairment charges or other non-cash reserves, of the Managed Equity REITs and the Managed Private Real Estate Capital clients plus (ii) the gross book value of real estate assets, property and equipment of the Managed Operating Companies, excluding depreciation, amortization, impairment charges or other non-cash reserves, plus (iii) the managed assets of RMR Mortgage Trust and Tremont Mortgage Trust.

All references in this press release to AUM on, or as of, a date are calculated at a point in time.

For additional information on the calculation of AUM for purposes of the fee provisions of the business management agreements, see The RMR Group Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC.

The RMR Group Inc. calculates earnings per share, or EPS, using the two-class method. As such, earnings attributable to unvested participating shares are excluded from earnings before calculating per share amounts. In addition, diluted EPS includes the assumed issuance of Class A Common Shares pursuant to The RMR Group Inc.’s equity compensation plan and the issuance of Class A Common Shares related to the assumed redemption of the noncontrolling interest’s 15,000 Class A Units using the if-converted method. In computing the dilutive effect, if any, that the aforementioned redemption would have on EPS, The RMR Group Inc. considered that net income available to holders of Class A Common Shares would increase due to elimination of the noncontrolling interest offset by any tax effect, which may be dilutive. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the assumed redemption is dilutive to earnings per share as presented in the table below. The calculation of basic and diluted EPS is as follows:

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP financial measures calculated as presented in the tables above. The RMR Group Inc. considers EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin to be appropriate supplemental measures of its operating performance, along with net income, net income attributable to The RMR Group Inc., operating income and operating margin. The RMR Group Inc. believes that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin provide useful information to investors because by excluding the effects of certain amounts, such as those outlined in the tables above, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin may facilitate a comparison of current operating performance with The RMR Group Inc.’s historical operating performance and with the performance of other asset management businesses. In addition, The RMR Group Inc. believes that providing Adjusted EBITDA Margin may help investors assess The RMR Group Inc.’s performance of its business by providing the margin that Adjusted EBITDA represents to its contractual management and advisory fees (excluding incentive business management fees, if any). EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin do not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income, net income attributable to The RMR Group Inc., operating income or operating margin as an indicator of The RMR Group Inc.’s financial performance or as a measure of The RMR Group Inc.’s liquidity. Other asset management businesses may calculate EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin differently than The RMR Group Inc. does.

(2)

 

Adjusted EBITDA less Cash Tax Obligation is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as presented in the table above. The RMR Group Inc. considers Adjusted EBITDA less Cash Tax Obligation to be an appropriate measure of its operating performance, along with net income attributable to The RMR Group Inc. The RMR Group Inc. believes that Adjusted EBITDA less Cash Tax Obligation provides useful information to investors because by excluding amounts payable for tax obligations, it increases comparability between periods and more accurately reflects earnings that may be available for distribution to shareholders. Adjusted EBITDA less Cash Tax Obligation is among the factors The RMR Group Inc.’s Board of Directors considers when determining the amount of dividends to its shareholders. Other asset management businesses may calculate Adjusted EBITDA less Cash Tax Obligation differently than The RMR Group Inc. does.

(3)

 

Contractual management and advisory fees are the base business management fees, property management fees and advisory fees The RMR Group Inc. or its subsidiaries earns pursuant to its management agreements. These amounts are calculated pursuant to the contractual formulas and do not deduct other asset amortization of $2,354 for each of the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, or $4,708 for each of the six months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, required to be recognized as a reduction to management services revenues in accordance with GAAP and do not include the incentive business management fees of $620 that The RMR Group Inc. recognized under GAAP for the three and six months ended March 31, 2021.

(4)

 

Under the RMR LLC operating agreement, RMR LLC is required to make quarterly pro rata cash distributions to The RMR Group Inc. and its noncontrolling interest based on each’s estimated tax liabilities and respective ownership percentages. Estimated tax liabilities are determined quarterly on a cumulative basis. As such, there may be fluctuations from quarter to quarter to account for prior periods where pro rata cash distributions were more or less than amounts determined cumulatively through a particular quarter. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, RMR LLC made required quarterly tax distributions as follows:

WARNING CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other securities laws. Forward-looking statements can be identified by use of words such as “outlook,” “believe,” “expect,” “potential,” “will,” “may,” “estimate,” “anticipate” and derivatives or negatives of such words or similar words. Forward-looking statements in this press release are based upon present beliefs or expectations. However, forward-looking statements and their implications are not guaranteed to occur and may not occur for various reasons, including some reasons beyond The RMR Group Inc.’s control. For example:

  • Mr. Portnoy states that in the second fiscal quarter, The RMR Group Inc. generated total management and advisory services revenues of $42.0 million, which represents its third straight quarter of service revenue growth from early pandemic lows and primarily comes from growth at its Managed Equity REITs. However, The RMR Group Inc.’s and the Managed Equity REITs’ businesses are subject to various risks, including risks outside its and their control. Further, the impact and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic is not known and the current difficult economic conditions may continue and could deteriorate further and such adverse conditions may continue for a prolonged period. Accordingly, The RMR Group Inc.’s management services revenues may not grow in future periods and could decline;
  • Mr. Portnoy states that The RMR Group Inc. has remained focused as an organization on the recovery and repositioning of its clients, which includes recent efforts such as strategically amending the Five Star Senior Living and Diversified Healthcare Trust management agreements, assisting RMR Mortgage Trust and Tremont Mortgage Trust with their agreement to merge into a larger more diversified commercial mortgage REIT and successfully assisting Sonesta in taking on the management of almost 200 Service Properties Trust owned hotels. These statements may imply that The RMR Group Inc.’s business will grow and that its operating performance and financial results will improve as a result of these actions. However, these efforts may not be successful and may not result in The RMR Group Inc. improving its operating performance or its financial results or realizing the returns it expects, and The RMR Group Inc. may realize losses as a result;
  • Mr. Portnoy states that The RMR Group Inc. is cautiously optimistic that it may begin earning incentive fees this calendar year, as Office Properties Income Trust began accruing a $20.8 million estimated incentive fee for calendar 2021 based on its total return per share out-performance relative to its peers. This statement may imply that The RMR Group Inc. may earn incentive business management fees for calendar 2021 or in future years. The incentive business management fees that The RMR Group Inc. may earn from its Managed Equity REITs are based upon total returns realized by the REITs’ shareholders compared to the total shareholders return of certain identified indices. The RMR Group Inc. has only limited control over the total returns realized by shareholders of the Managed Equity REITs and effectively no control over indexed total returns. There can be no assurance that The RMR Group Inc. will earn any incentive business management fees from its Managed Equity REITs in the future;
  • This press release also reports that incentive business management fees of $0.6 million were earned from TRMT for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. An implication of this statement may be that incentive business management fees may be earned from TRMT and RMRM in the future. However, there can be no assurance that The RMR Group Inc. will earn any incentive business management fees from TRMT or RMRM in the future; and
  • Mr. Portnoy states that The RMR Group Inc.’s balance sheet remains strong and leaves it well positioned as it accesses capital allocation strategies. These statements may imply that The RMR Group Inc. will successfully identify and execute one or more capital allocation strategies and that it will profitably grow its business. However, identifying and executing on these capital allocation strategies are subject to various uncertainties and risks and may take an extended period to realize any resulting benefit to its business. Further, The RMR Group Inc. may not be successful in profitably managing any capital allocation strategies or growth initiatives it may pursue.

The information contained in The RMR Group Inc.’s filings with the SEC, including under the caption “Risk Factors” in The RMR Group Inc.’s periodic reports, or incorporated therein, identifies important factors that could cause differences from the forward-looking statements in this press release. The RMR Group Inc.’s filings with the SEC are available on its website and at www.sec.gov.

You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

Except as required by law, The RMR Group Inc. undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
