BlackRock, Inc. (NYSE:BLK) today reported financial results for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.
“BlackRock’s third quarter 2015 results, including year-over-year growth
in revenue and operating income, demonstrate the resilience of our
global, diversified investment platform,” commented Laurence D. Fink,
Chairman and CEO of BlackRock. “Clients seeking long-term investment
solutions, strong risk management and durable alpha generation turned to
BlackRock amidst challenging market conditions, driving total net
inflows of $50 billion. Long-term net inflows of $35 billion reflected
positive flows across investment styles and client types.
“Our global retail business raised $7 billion of net inflows, as
BlackRock’s strategy to expand our distribution footprint and enhance
performance enabled growth in the quarter. BlackRock saw US retail net
inflows of $2 billion despite industry headwinds in the quarter, and
maintained its leading market share of total year-to-date international
cross-border flows.
“Investors continued to look to iShares as an effective way to
express market views and enhance portfolio construction. iShares,
with $23 billion of net inflows, once again captured the #1 market share
of net new business globally, as well as in both the US and Europe.
Fixed income iShares had $18 billion of net inflows as fixed
income ETFs were increasingly used by clients as efficient tools for
diversification and liquidity.
“Institutional clients are seeking uncorrelated returns in the current
investment environment, and institutional net inflows of $5 billion
included broad based alternatives flows across infrastructure, real
estate, fund of fund and alternative solutions offerings. Fundraising
momentum also continued, with an additional $1 billion of illiquid
alternative commitments raised in the third quarter.
“BlackRock’s commitment to consistent alpha generation across our entire
investment platform is anchored in a team-based investment approach,
global connectivity via Aladdin and knowledge-sharing through the
BlackRock Investment Institute. Scientific active equity and taxable
fixed income demonstrated sustained long-term performance, with 97% and
90% of AUM above benchmark or peer median for the three-year period.
Fundamental active equity performance continued to improve, with 80% of
assets above benchmark or peer median for the one-year period.
“I want to thank BlackRock employees for their ongoing commitment to our
clients and our shareholders. We are more confident than ever before
that our unique and differentiated business model is positioned for
continued growth in the current environment.”

Highlights
-
Investment advisory, administration fees and securities lending
revenue decreased $12 million from the third quarter of 2014 as the
effect of lower markets on average equity AUM and the impact of
foreign exchange movements more than offset organic growth. Securities
lending fees were $115 million in both the current quarter and the
third quarter of 2014.
Investment advisory, administration
fees and securities lending revenue decreased $78 million from the
second quarter of 2015 reflecting the effect of lower markets on
average equity AUM and seasonally lower securities lending fees,
partially offset by the effect of one additional revenue day in the
current quarter. Securities lending fees decreased $32 million from
the second quarter of 2015.
-
Performance fees increased $75 million from the third quarter of 2014
and $72 million from the second quarter of 2015, primarily reflecting
strong performance from a single hedge fund with an annual performance
measurement period that ends in the third quarter.
-
BlackRock Solutions® and advisory revenue
increased $2 million from the third quarter of 2014 and $6 million
from the second quarter of 2015 due to higher revenue from Aladdin®.
BlackRock Solutions and advisory revenue included $135 million
in Aladdin revenue in the current quarter compared with $122
million in the third quarter of 2014 and $129 million in the second
quarter of 2015.

Highlights
-
Employee compensation and benefits increased $50 million from the
third quarter of 2014, reflecting higher headcount, higher deferred
compensation expense and higher levels of performance fees, partially
offset by the impact of foreign exchange movements.
Employee
compensation and benefits increased $11 million from the second
quarter of 2015, reflecting higher headcount.
-
General and administration expense decreased $57 million from the
third quarter of 2014, reflecting lower marketing and promotional
expense and the impact of an expense recorded in the third quarter of
2014 related to a $50 million reduction of an indemnification asset
(offset by a $50 million tax benefit – see Income Tax Expense
highlights). The decrease was partially offset by higher foreign
exchange remeasurement expense in the current quarter.
General
and administration expense increased $7 million from the second
quarter of 2015, primarily reflecting higher professional services
fees.

Highlights
-
The third quarter 2015 income tax expense included a $6 million
noncash tax benefit primarily associated with the revaluation of
certain deferred income tax liabilities as a result of domestic state
and local tax changes.
-
The third quarter 2014 income tax expense included:
-
a $32 million noncash tax benefit, primarily associated with the
revaluation of certain deferred income tax liabilities as a result
of domestic state and local tax changes.
-
a $94 million tax benefit, primarily due to the resolution of
certain outstanding tax matters related to the acquisition of
Barclays Global Investors. In connection with the acquisition,
BlackRock recorded a $50 million indemnification asset for
unrecognized tax benefits. Due to the resolution of such tax
matters in the third quarter of 2014, BlackRock recorded $50
million of general and administration expense to reflect the
reduction of the indemnification asset and an offsetting $50
million tax benefit. The $50 million general and administrative
expense and $50 million tax benefit have been excluded from as
adjusted results as there is no impact on BlackRock’s book value.
-
The second quarter 2015 income tax expense included a $13 million
noncash tax expense primarily associated with the revaluation of
certain deferred income tax liabilities as a result of domestic state
and local tax changes.

Highlights
-
Net gain on investments decreased $42 million from the third quarter
of 2014 due to lower marks in the third quarter of 2015.
Interest
expense decreased $11 million from the third quarter of 2014,
primarily due to repayments of long-term borrowings in the fourth
quarter of 2014.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF INCOME AND SUPPLEMENTAL
INFORMATION (unaudited)
BlackRock reports its financial results in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”); however,
management believes evaluating the Company’s ongoing operating results
may be enhanced if investors have additional non-GAAP financial
measures. Management reviews non-GAAP financial measures to assess
ongoing operations and, for the reasons described below, considers them
to be effective indicators, for both management and investors, of
BlackRock’s financial performance over time. Management also uses
non-GAAP financial measures as a benchmark to compare its performance
with other companies and to enhance the comparability of this
information for the reporting periods presented. Non-GAAP measures may
pose limitations because they do not include all of BlackRock’s revenue
and expense. BlackRock’s management does not advocate that investors
consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a
substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Management uses both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating
BlackRock’s financial performance. Adjustments to GAAP financial
measures (“non-GAAP adjustments”) include certain items management deems
nonrecurring or occur infrequently, transactions that ultimately will
not impact BlackRock’s book value or certain tax items that do not
impact cash flow.
Computations for all periods are derived from the condensed consolidated
statements of income as follows:
(1) Operating income, as adjusted, and operating margin, as adjusted: Management
believes operating income, as adjusted, and operating margin, as
adjusted, are effective indicators of BlackRock’s financial performance
over time and, therefore, provide useful disclosure to investors.
-
Operating income, as adjusted, includes non-GAAP expense adjustments.
The portion of compensation expense associated with certain long-term
incentive plans (“LTIP”) funded, or to be funded, through share
distributions to participants of BlackRock stock held by The PNC
Financial Services Group, Inc. (“PNC”) has been excluded because it
ultimately does not impact BlackRock’s book value. Compensation
expense associated with appreciation (depreciation) on investments
related to certain BlackRock deferred compensation plans has been
excluded as returns on investments set aside for these plans, which
substantially offset this expense, are reported in nonoperating income
(expense). The third quarter 2014 non-GAAP expense adjustments also
included the previously mentioned $50 million general and
administration expense due to the reduction of an indemnification
asset. The $50 million general and administration expense and the
offsetting $50 million tax benefit have been excluded from as adjusted
results as there is no impact on BlackRock’s book value.
-
Operating income used for measuring operating margin, as adjusted, is
equal to operating income, as adjusted, excluding the impact of
closed-end fund launch costs and product placement costs, and related
commissions. Management believes the exclusion of such costs and
related commissions is useful because these costs can fluctuate
considerably and revenue associated with the expenditure of these
costs will not fully impact BlackRock’s results until future periods.
Revenue
used for operating margin, as adjusted, excludes distribution and
servicing costs paid to related parties and other third parties.
Management believes the exclusion of such costs is useful because it
creates consistency in the treatment for certain contracts for similar
services, which due to the terms of the contracts, are accounted for
under GAAP on a net basis within investment advisory, administration
fees and securities lending revenue. Amortization of deferred sales
commissions is excluded from revenue used for operating margin
measurement, as adjusted, because such costs, over time, substantially
offset distribution fee revenue the Company earns. For each of these
items, BlackRock excludes from revenue used for operating margin, as
adjusted, the costs related to each of these items as a proxy for such
offsetting revenue.
(2) Nonoperating income (expense), less net income (loss)
attributable to NCI, as adjusted: Nonoperating income (expense),
less net income (loss) attributable to NCI, as adjusted, equals
nonoperating income (expense), GAAP basis, less net income (loss)
attributable to NCI, adjusted for compensation expense associated with
(appreciation) depreciation on investments related to certain BlackRock
deferred compensation plans. The compensation expense offset is recorded
in operating income. This compensation expense has been included in
nonoperating income (expense), less net income (loss) attributable to
NCI, as adjusted, to offset returns on investments set aside for these
plans, which are reported in nonoperating income (expense), GAAP basis.
(3) Net income attributable to BlackRock, Inc., as adjusted: See
aforementioned discussion regarding operating income, as adjusted, and
operating margin, as adjusted, for information on the PNC LTIP funding
obligation.
For each period presented, the non-GAAP adjustment related to the PNC
LTIP funding obligation was tax effected at the respective blended rates
applicable to the adjustments. The three months ended September 30, 2015
and the three months ended June 30, 2015 included a $6 million net
noncash tax benefit and $13 million of net noncash tax expense,
respectively, primarily related to the revaluation of certain deferred
tax liabilities. Both the $6 million noncash benefit and the $13 million
net noncash expense have been excluded from as adjusted results as these
items will not have a cash flow impact and to ensure comparability among
periods presented. The third quarter of 2014 included a $32 million
noncash benefit, primarily associated with the revaluation of certain
deferred income tax liabilities related to intangible assets and
goodwill as a result of domestic state and local tax changes, which has
been excluded from the as adjusted results. The second quarter of 2014
included a $23 million net noncash tax expense primarily related to the
revaluation of certain deferred income tax liabilities. Both the $32
million noncash benefit and the $23 million net noncash expense have
been excluded from as adjusted results as these items will not have a
cash flow impact and to ensure comparability among periods presented.
