NEWTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The RMR Group Inc. (Nasdaq: RMR) today announced its financial results for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2020.
Adam Portnoy, President and Chief Executive Officer, made the following statement regarding the third quarter fiscal 2020 results:
“In the fiscal third quarter, we generated net income of $15.4 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $19.6 million and Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 47.1%. While our results reflect the adverse impacts of the pandemic on our Managed Equity REITs’ share prices, we were pleased fee paying assets under management increased sequentially and management services revenues increased each successive month in the quarter.
This quarter, we continued assisting our Client Companies to navigate through this uniquely challenging environment. During the quarter, we assisted several of our Client Companies in raising more than $2 billion of capital in total to help increase liquidity and meet near-term debt maturities. While markets remain volatile, we are also encouraged by the overall high rent collection levels and waning tenant rent relief requests across the retail, office and industrial assets we manage on behalf of our Client Companies. Further, during the quarter, our Managed Equity REITs executed over 1.6 million square feet in new and renewal leasing transactions and we managed over $40.0 million in capital projects for our Client Companies.
At the close of the quarter, our dividend remains secure and our balance sheet leaves us well positioned to take advantage of potential strategic opportunities with $393.7 million of cash and no debt.”

Reconciliations to GAAP:
Adjusted net income attributable to The RMR Group Inc., EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin 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 and Adjusted EBITDA is net income, while 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 and Adjusted EBITDA Margin for each of the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 are presented later in this press release.
Assets Under Management:
The calculation of gross assets under management, or gross 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 ABP Trust, plus (ii) the gross book value of real estate assets, property and equipment of the Managed Operators, excluding depreciation, amortization, impairment charges or other non-cash reserves, plus (iii) the fair value of investments of Affiliates Insurance Company (until its dissolution on February 13, 2020) and the RMR Office Property Fund LP (until its dissolution on July 28, 2020), the managed assets of RMR Mortgage Trust (formerly known as RMR Real Estate Income Fund) and the equity of Tremont Mortgage Trust. This calculation of gross AUM may include amounts that are higher than the calculations of assets under management used for purposes of calculating fees under the terms of the business management agreements.
The calculation of fee paying assets under management, or fee paying AUM, refers to the fact that base business management fees payable to The RMR Group LLC by the Managed Equity REITs are calculated monthly based upon the lower of the average historical cost of each entity's real estate assets and its average market capitalization. Management fees payable to The RMR Group LLC by other client companies are generally calculated as a percentage of revenues earned, average daily managed assets, equity, net asset value or total premiums paid under active insurance policies in accordance with the applicable management agreement.
All references in this press release to assets under management on, or as of, a date are calculated at a point in time.
For additional information on the calculation of assets under management 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 ending September 30, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC. The RMR Group Inc.’s SEC filings are available at the SEC website: www.sec.gov.

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 any incentive business management fees). 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) |
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 and investment advisory agreements with its client companies. 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 June 30, 2020 and 2019, or $7,062 for each of the nine months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, 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 $120,094 that The RMR Group Inc. recognized under GAAP during the three months ended December 31, 2018, which were earned for the calendar year 2018. |

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 The RMR Group Inc. generated net income of $15.4 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $19.6 million and Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 47.1%. He also states that while these results reflect the adverse impact of the pandemic on the Managed Equity REITs share prices, The RMR Group Inc.’s fee paying assets under management increased sequentially and management services revenues increased each successive month in the quarter. These statements may imply that The RMR Group Inc.’s fee paying assets under management and management services revenues will continue to grow in future periods. However, The RMR Group Inc.’s business is subject to various risks, including risks outside of its control. Further, the impact and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic is not known and the current different economic conditions may continue and could deteriorate further and such adverse conditions may continue for a prolonged period. Accordingly, The RMR Group Inc.’s fee paying assets under management and management services revenues may not grow in future periods and could decline;
- Mr. Portnoy also states that The RMR Group Inc. is encouraged by the overall high rent collection levels and waning tenant rent relief requests across the retail, office and industrial assets it manages on behalf of its Client Companies. These statements may imply that tenant rent collections and tenant relief requests will continue at current levels or improve and that tenant requests for rent relief will further decline. However, tenant rent collections may decline and tenant rent relief requests may increase in the future. In addition, these tenants may be unable to repay those amounts when due. Further, these and other tenants of the Client Companies may be unable to pay other rent amounts and they may default on those payments or the Client Companies may grant them relief, any of which may reduce or delay the fees The RMR Group Inc. earns; and
- Mr. Portnoy states that The RMR Group Inc.’s dividend remains secure and its balance sheet leaves it well positioned to take advantage of potential strategic opportunities. This statement may imply that The RMR Group Inc. will successfully explore and act upon strategic opportunities for future growth and that The RMR Group Inc.’s business will grow and that its operating performance and financial results will improve as a result. However, The RMR Group Inc. may not identify growth opportunities it wishes to pursue and any growth opportunities it may pursue may not be successful and may not result in The RMR Group Inc. improving its operating performance or its financial results, and The RMR Group Inc. may realize losses as a result. In addition, The RMR Group Inc.’s ability to continue to pay dividends is subject to a number of factors and there are no assurances that The RMR Group Inc. will be able to continue paying dividends in the future or that such dividends will not be reduced or suspended due to unforeseen circumstances, including, but not limited to, economic conditions due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its aftermath.
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.
