First quarter consolidated revenues were $1.14 billion, up 14% (16% in local currency) and Adjusted EBITDA (note 1) was $116.0 million, up 7% (7% in local currency) compared to the prior year quarter. Consolidated internal revenue growth measured in local currencies was up 4% (note 5) versus the prior year quarter. Adjusted EPS (note 2) was $0.87, an increase of 13% over the prior year quarter. Adjusted EPS was not significantly impacted by changes in foreign exchange rates. GAAP operating earnings were $31.6 million compared to $43.3 million in the prior year quarter. The GAAP diluted net loss per share was $0.08 compared to GAAP diluted net earnings per share of $0.26 in the prior year quarter. First quarter GAAP diluted net loss per share was not significantly impacted by changes in foreign exchange rates.

Over the past 12 months, 72% of the Company’s earnings were generated from recurring service revenues highlighting the strength and resilience of its highly diversified business model. Trailing 12-month free cash flow (note 3) exceeded $400 million with a conversion rate of 136%, well above the Company’s long-term target rate of 100% of adjusted net earnings.

“We’re pleased with our operating results for the quarter, which met expectations and keep us on track to achieve our full-year targets,” said Jay S. Hennick, Chairman & CEO of Colliers. “When we set our outlook for the year, we took a conservative stance given the macroeconomic and political uncertainty - and we’re glad we did. At Colliers, market volatility has never derailed our focus on creating value for shareholders. Time and again, our leadership team has navigated uncertainty with discipline and has seized opportunities that present themselves – and this time is no different. That said, we’re seeing strength across all our business segments and geographies, which we expect will continue, particularly through the back half of the year.”

“Our recently established Engineering segment delivered strong internal growth in the quarter and combined with acquisitions, achieved meaningful gains over the prior year. With more than 9,000 professionals and annualized revenues of over $1.5 billion, Colliers now ranks among the top global players in this industry with additional opportunities for growth. We also advanced our growth strategy with the acquisition of Ethos Urban, adding best-in-class urban planning capabilities in Australia, and the pending acquisition of Triovest, which will further strengthen our leading position in Canada’s commercial real estate services market. After quarter-end, we also completed the acquisition of Terra Consulting, expanding our Engineering platform in the U.S.”

“With three powerful growth engines, a world-class leadership team, and a 30-year track record of value creation through every market cycle, Colliers is well-positioned to continue delivering outstanding returns for shareholders,” he concluded.

Notes
Non-GAAP Measures
1. Reconciliation of net earnings to Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net earnings, adjusted to exclude: (i) income tax; (ii) other income; (iii) interest expense; (iv) depreciation and amortization, including amortization of mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”); (v) gains attributable to MSRs; (vi) acquisition-related items (including contingent acquisition consideration fair value adjustments, contingent acquisition consideration-related compensation expense and transaction costs); (vii) restructuring costs and (viii) stock-based compensation expense, including related to the CEO’s performance-based long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”). We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our own operating performance and our ability to service debt, as well as an integral part of our planning and reporting systems. Additionally, we use this measure in conjunction with discounted cash flow models to determine the Company’s overall enterprise valuation and to evaluate acquisition targets. We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure because we believe such measure is useful to investors as a reasonable indicator of operating performance because of the low capital intensity of the Company’s service operations. We believe this measure is a financial metric used by many investors to compare companies, especially in the services industry. This measure is not a recognized measure of financial performance of the consolidated Company under GAAP in the United States, and should not be considered as a substitute for operating earnings, net earnings or cash flow from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our method of calculating Adjusted EBITDA may differ from other issuers and accordingly, this measure may not be comparable to measures used by other issuers. A reconciliation of net earnings to Adjusted EBITDA appears below.

Adjusted EBITDA		$	116,044			$	108,695

2. Reconciliation of net earnings and diluted net earnings per common share to adjusted net earnings and Adjusted EPS

Adjusted EPS is defined as diluted net earnings per share adjusted for the effect, after income tax, of: (i) the non-controlling interest redemption increment; (ii) amortization expense related to intangible assets recognized in connection with acquisitions and MSRs; (iii) gains attributable to MSRs; (iv) acquisition-related items; (v) restructuring costs and (vi) stock-based compensation expense, including related to the CEO’s LTIP. We believe this measure is useful to investors because it provides a supplemental way to understand the underlying operating performance of the Company and enhances the comparability of operating results from period to period. Adjusted EPS is not a recognized measure of financial performance under GAAP, and should not be considered as a substitute for diluted net earnings per share from continuing operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our method of calculating this non-GAAP measure may differ from other issuers and, accordingly, this measure may not be comparable to measures used by other issuers. A reconciliation of net earnings to adjusted net earnings and of diluted net earnings per share to adjusted EPS appears below.

3. Reconciliation of net cash flow from operations to free cash flow

Free cash flow is defined as net cash flow from operating activities plus contingent acquisition consideration paid, less purchases of fixed assets, plus cash collections on AR Facility deferred purchase price less distributions to non-controlling interests. We use free cash flow as a measure to evaluate and monitor operating performance as well as our ability to service debt, fund acquisitions and pay dividends to shareholders. We present free cash flow as a supplemental measure because we believe this measure is a financial metric used by many investors to compare valuation and liquidity measures across companies, especially in the services industry. This measure is not a recognized measure of financial performance under GAAP in the United States, and should not be considered as a substitute for operating earnings, net earnings or cash flow from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our method of calculating free cash flow may differ from other issuers and accordingly, this measure may not be comparable to measures used by other issuers. A reconciliation of net cash flow from operating activities to free cash flow appears below.

4. Reconciliation of revenues to net service revenues

Net service revenues are defined as revenues excluding subconsultant and other reimbursable direct costs in Real Estate Services and Engineering segments as well as historical pass-through performance fees in Investment Management segment, in which the Company has no economic interest, to better reflect the operating performance of the business.

5. Local currency revenue and Adjusted EBITDA growth rate and internal revenue growth rate measures

Percentage revenue and Adjusted EBITDA variances presented on a local currency basis are calculated by translating the current period results of our non-US dollar denominated operations to US dollars using the foreign currency exchange rates from the periods against which the current period results are being compared. Percentage revenue variances presented on an internal growth basis are calculated assuming no impact from acquired entities in the current and prior periods. Revenue from acquired entities, including any foreign exchange impacts, are treated as acquisition growth until the respective anniversaries of the acquisitions. We believe that these revenue growth rate methodologies provide a framework for assessing the Company’s performance and operations excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and acquisitions. Since these revenue growth rate measures are not calculated under GAAP, they may not be comparable to similar measures used by other issuers.

6. Assets under management

We use the term assets under management (“AUM”) as a measure of the scale of our Investment Management operations. AUM is defined as the gross market value of operating assets and the projected gross cost of development assets of the funds, partnerships and accounts to which we provide management and advisory services, including capital that such funds, partnerships and accounts have the right to call from investors pursuant to capital commitments. Our definition of AUM may differ from those used by other issuers and as such may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other issuers.

7. Adjusted EBITDA from recurring revenue percentage

Adjusted EBITDA from recurring revenue percentage is computed on a trailing twelve-month basis and represents the proportion of Adjusted EBITDA (note 1) that is derived from Engineering, Outsourcing and Investment Management service lines. All these service lines represent medium to long-term duration revenue streams that are either contractual or repeatable in nature. Adjusted EBITDA for this purpose is calculated in the same manner as for our debt agreement covenant calculation purposes, incorporating the expected full year impact of business acquisitions and dispositions.
