Calabasas, CA, March 11, 2014 Marcus & Millichap, Inc., (the Company, Marcus and Millichap) (NYSE: MMI), a leading national brokerage firm specializing in commercial real estate investment sales, financing, research and advisory services, today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2013. Highlights include:
Full-Year 2013 Results
| Revenue increased 13.0% to $435.9 million compared to the prior year, with real estate brokerage commissions up 11.9% over the prior year. |
| Sales volume increased 8.9% to $24.0 billion (includes $17.3 billion real estate brokerage, $2.7 billion financing and $4.0 billion other transactions, including consulting and advisory services) representing an increase in volume of $2.0 billion from the prior year. |
| Number of transactions increased 7.5% to 6,608 transactions (includes 4,634 real estate brokerage, 1,165 financing and 809 other transactions, including consulting and advisory services) representing an increase of 459 transactions, when compared to 2012. |
| Number of investment sales professionals grew by nearly 24%, ending 2013 with 1,240 professionals. At the same time, the number of financing professionals grew by 16% to 73 as of year-end 2013. |
| Adjusted net income was $30.5 million, excluding non-cash, stock-based and other compensation charges in connection with our initial public offering (IPO) of $22.3 million, net of related income tax benefits of $9.0 million, compared to $27.9 million in the same period last year. Net income was $8.2 million, including non-cash, stock-based and other compensation charges in connection with our IPO. |
| Adjusted EBITDA increased to $61.3 million, up from $59.7 million for the full year in 2012. |
Fourth-Quarter 2013 Results
| Revenue increased 1.0% to $149.1 million compared to the fourth quarter in 2012. This was accomplished despite the impact of the fiscal cliff which resulted in commercial real estate investors expediting the close of transactions in the fourth quarter of 2012 that would have normally closed in 2013. |
| Adjusted net income was $13.6 million, excluding non-cash, stock-based and other compensation charges in connection with our IPO of $22.3 million, net of related income tax benefits of $9.0 million, compared to $13.0 million net income in the same period last year. Net loss was $8.7 million, including non-cash, stock-based and other compensation charges in connection with our IPO. |
| Successfully completed the IPO on November 5, 2013 resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $42.3 million. |
Commenting on the Companys results, John J. Kerin, Marcus & Millichaps President and Chief Executive Officer, said, Various initiatives stemming from our long-term growth plan kept the Company on a solid track in 2013 and resulted in an impressive increase in revenue, growth in our sales force and expansion of client services. Our performance was driven by continued strength in the apartment and retail sectors, which have traditionally been our leading business units. We also achieved growth in office and specialty property sales such as hospitality and in our mortgage brokerage revenue, reflecting our emphasis on growth through diversification.
Kerin continued, We saw progress in all facets of our growth plan which was underpinned by our ability to expand our sales force. Our management teams ability to attract large numbers of new and experienced professionals, train and mentor them and improve their productivity over time is a significant advantage in the marketplace. Our initiative to increase recruitment of experienced professionals has been fruitful, accounting for 70, or 28%, of our 2013 net new hires.
Initial Public Offering
On November 5, 2013, the Company completed its IPO of 6,900,000 shares of common stock at a price to the public of $12.00 per share, which consisted of 4,173,413 shares of common stock sold by the Company, including 900,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters option to purchase additional shares and 2,726,587 shares of common stock sold by the selling stockholders. The IPO generated net proceeds to the Company of $42.3 million. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling stockholders.
Fourth Quarter 2013 Results
Total revenues for the fourth quarter of 2013 were $149.1 million, compared to $147.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2012, an increase of $1.5 million, or 1.0%. The increase in total revenues is a result of increases in other revenues, which include fees generated from consulting and advisory services performed by our investment sales professionals, as well as referral fees from other real estate brokers. This more than offset the decrease in revenues from real estate brokerage commissions and financing fees due to the impact of the fiscal cliff which resulted in commercial real estate investors expediting the close of transactions in the fourth quarter of 2012 that would have normally closed in 2013.
Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2013 totaled $157.3 million, compared to $124.7 million for the same period last year, an increase of $32.6 million, or 26.1%. The increase was primarily driven by stock-based and other compensation charges of $31.3 million related to the modification of pre-IPO book value stock-based compensation restricted stock and stock appreciation rights (SARs) plans, acceleration of vesting of restricted stock and SARs, grant of replacement awards in the form of deferred stock units, or DSUs, and other compensation charges in connection with the IPO during the fourth quarter of 2013 with no comparable costs in the same prior year period.
Cost of services, which is primarily commissions paid to the Companys investment sales professionals and compensation-related costs in connection with our financing activities, increased by $2.9 million, or 3.2%, to $94.2 million during the quarter. The increase was primarily due to increased commission expenses driven by an increase in the proportion of transactions closed by our senior sales agents, who are paid higher commission rates.
The increase in cost of services were partially offset by a decrease in selling, general and administrative costs of $1.6 million, or 4.9%, primarily due to lower stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by higher staff salaries, wages and related benefits expenses, higher legal costs and higher professional fees. Stock-based compensation expense decreased by $3.3 million primarily due to the termination of the Companys book value restricted stock and SARs plans and replacement with immediately vested stock compensation granted in conjunction with the IPO.
Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $8.7 million, compared to net income of $13.0 million in the fourth quarter of last year, primarily driven by the non-cash, stock-based and other compensation charges in connection with the IPO of $31.3 million and the related income tax benefits of $9.0 million for a net expense of $22.3 million. Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $24.5 million compared to adjusted EBITDA of $27.3 million in the fourth quarter last year.
Full Year 2013 Results
The Company reported total revenues of $435.9 million for 2013, an increase of $50.2 million, or 13.0%, compared to revenues of $385.7 million for 2012. Operating expenses for 2013 were $414.6 million compared to $336.7 million for 2012, representing an increase of $77.9 million, or 23.1%. The Company reported net income for 2013 of $8.2 million compared with net income of $27.9 million for 2012, primarily due to the non-cash, stock-based and other compensation charges in connection with the IPO of $31.3 million and the related income tax benefits of $9.0 million for a net expense of $22.3 million. Adjusted EBITDA for 2013 was $61.3 million, which represents an increase of $1.6 million, or 2.6%, as compared to $59.7 million for 2012.
Business Outlook
Commenting on the Companys business outlook, Mr. Kerin said, Looking ahead in 2014, favorable market conditions, continued low interest rates and improving property fundamentals are expected to drive increases in commercial real estate transactions. The future is bright, and we look forward to continued growth in 2014 and beyond.

MARCUS & MILLICHAP, INC
ADJUSTED EBITDA RECONCILIATION
(Unaudited)
Adjusted EBITDA, which the Company defines as net income before interest income/expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA in its business operations to, among other things, evaluate the performance of its business, develop budgets and measure its performance against those budgets. The Company also believes that analysts and investors use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to evaluate its overall operating performance. However, Adjusted EBITDA has material limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Companys results as reported under U.S. GAAP. The Company finds Adjusted EBITDA as a useful tool to assist in evaluating performance because it eliminates items related to capital structure and taxes and non-cash stock-based compensation charges. In light of the foregoing limitations, the Company does not rely solely on Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure and also considers its U.S. GAAP results. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of the Companys financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Because Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated in the same manner by all companies, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.
A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, net income, is as follows (in thousands):
