CI Financial Corp. (“CI”) (TSX: CIX, NYSE: CIXX) today released record financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2021.

“2021 was the most successful year in the history of CI in terms of financial performance and asset gathering,” said Kurt MacAlpine, CI Chief Executive Officer. “These outstanding results stem from the tremendous progress we have made in executing on our strategy and the successful transformation of the company. During the year, we added $6.6 billion of new client assets, excluding market moves and M&A. This was the result of robust growth in wealth management and our best asset management flows in six years.

“In the U.S., we significantly expanded our wealth management business by completing the acquisitions of eight registered investment advisors and taking minority stakes in two alternative asset managers in the fourth quarter alone,” Mr. MacAlpine said. “At $151 billion in assets, U.S. wealth management is now our largest business line.

“In Canada, our wealth management platform posted year-over-year asset growth of 20%, reaching $80.6 billion, while AUM in our asset management segment grew by more than 11% due to strong investment performance and positive net sales. The significant turnaround in net sales stems from actions taken to modernize our asset management business, including integrating our boutique investment teams into a single global platform and introducing a broad range of innovative investment solutions.”

Financial highlights

Total fourth quarter revenues grew by 15.3% as compared to the third quarter. Excluding foreign currency exchange gains and losses and a gain on an investment during the fourth quarter, total revenue grew 6.8%, primarily driven by seasonal performance fees and distributions related to seed capital investments in certain funds, higher average core assets under management, as well as by recent acquisitions and higher client asset balances.

Total expenses in the fourth quarter decreased slightly from the third quarter. Excluding adjustments related to changes in fair value for contingent consideration and amortization of intangible assets related to our acquisitions, legal and restructuring charges, and contingent consideration recorded as compensation, total expenses increased 3.5% primarily due to year-end incentive compensation adjustments and higher marketing and branding costs.

Net income grew to $123.7 million in the fourth quarter from $43.8 million in the third quarter. Excluding the adjustments noted above, fourth quarter net income was $171.0 million, which increased 7.4% from $159.2 million in the third quarter.

For the full year, revenues grew 33% to $2.7 billion, reflecting the impact of acquisitions, favorable market conditions and positive organic growth across the franchise. For the full year, expenses grew 52% to $2.1 billion, reflecting the impact of acquisitions as well as higher variable costs associated with higher asset levels. Net income was $412.4 million in 2021 as compared to $475.5 million in 2020. Adjusted net income (see non-IFRS measures) increased to $634.8 million from $528.7 million, primarily due to the impact of acquisitions and favorable market conditions.

Capital allocation

In the fourth quarter of 2021, CI repurchased 0.8 million shares at a cost of $20.9 million, for an average cost of $26.21 per share, and paid $35.6 million in dividends at a rate of $0.18 per share.

The Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.18 per share, payable on July 15, 2022 to shareholders of record on June 30, 2022. The annual dividend rate of $0.72 per share represented a yield of 3.3% on CI’s closing share price of $21.80 on February 18, 2022.

Fourth quarter business highlights

    • GLAS Funds, LLC of Cleveland, a leading tech-enabled platform providing investors with secure and streamlined digital access to alternative investments. It has $1.6 billion in combined assets under management and assets under contract.
  • CI Global Asset Management (“CI GAM”) investment funds received extensive industry recognition for investment excellence. CI GAM received 13 Refinitiv Canada Lipper Fund Awards and 38 FundGrade A+® Awards.

The Lipper and FundGrade A+ awards were announced in November and January, respectively.

Following quarter-end:

  • Effective January 1, CI established CI Private Wealth US, LLC (“CIPW”) to hold CI’s interests in its U.S. RIAs. CIPW is structured as a partnership in which CI is majority owner and certain employees of CIPW and its affiliates hold shares in the firm. This unique model aligns the interests of all partners and incentivizes them to collaborate, realize synergies, and drive the profitable growth of the firm as a whole.
  • CI agreed to acquire Corient Capital Partners, LLC, a Newport Beach, California-based RIA overseeing approximately $6.3 billion on behalf of ultra-high-net-worth individuals and families across the United States.

Non-IFRS Measures

In an effort to provide additional information regarding our results as determined by IFRS, we also disclose certain non-IFRS information which we believe provides useful and meaningful information. Our management reviews these non-IFRS financial measurements when evaluating our financial performance and results of operations; therefore, we believe it is useful to provide information with respect to these non-GAAP measurements so as to share this perspective of management. Non-IFRS measurements do not have any standardized meaning, do not replace nor are superior to IFRS financial measurements and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The non-IFRS financial measurements contained in this press release include:

  • Adjusted net income and adjusted basic earnings per share
  • EBITDA, EBITDA per basic share, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA per basic share
  • Free cash flow
  • Net debt.

Our adjusted net income, adjusted basic earnings per share, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA per basic share and free cash flow excludes the following revenues and expenses which we believe allows investors a consistent way to analyze our financial performance:

  • gains or losses related to foreign currency fluctuations on our cash balances
  • costs related to our acquisitions including:
    • amortization of intangible assets
    • change in fair value of contingent consideration
    • related advisory fees
    • contingent consideration classified as compensation per IFRS
  • restructuring charges
  • gains or losses in assets and investments
  • costs related to issuing or retiring debt obligations.

Further explanations of these Non-IFRS measures can be found in the “Non-IFRS Measures” section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis dated November 11, 2021 available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com or at www.cifinancial.com.
