Hessam Nadji, Marcus & Millichap’s President and CEO commented, “Record fourth quarter and full-year 2021 results were the culmination of key strategies deployed over the past few years to expand and strengthen the MMI platform, our team’s time-tested and unique ability to help investors navigate and execute effectively amid shifting market sentiment, as well as a strong market recovery. The company’s significant investment in proprietary tools and technology, elevated branding and client outreach campaigns, and key acquisitions over the past several years were direct and meaningful contributors to our results. We are pleased to have captured strong growth in our core, private client business while diversifying into larger, institutional transactions and growing our financing business.”

Mr. Nadji continued, “We believe market conditions will remain favorable for our business, notwithstanding the tide of rising interest rates, slower economic growth, and heightened geopolitical tensions. Our pipeline coming into 2022 reflects healthy growth thanks to many of the same drivers that contributed to our results in 2021 and is supported by strong capital demand for commercial real estate. The asset class is seen as an inflation hedge with compelling yields given the prospects for continued rent growth across most sectors and still-low interest rates. Our focus on supporting our sales forces’ productivity, business development, and market share growth is unwavering while we continue to pursue accretive acquisitions. MMI’s balance sheet which was further bolstered by exceptional cash flow and earnings last year, leading brand, and committed management team are key assets toward maximizing shareholder value in the coming years.”

Dividends

On February 16, 2022, the Board of Directors declared an initial semi-annual regular dividend of $0.25 per share, or approximately $10.4 million, payable on April 4, 2022 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on March 8, 2022.

In addition, the Board of Directors declared a special dividend of $1.00 per share, or approximately $41.7 million, payable on April 4, 2022, to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 8, 2022. Any and all future dividends are subject to review and approval by the Board of Directors.

Fourth Quarter 2021 Results Compared to Fourth Quarter 2020

Total revenues for the fourth quarter of 2021 reached $495.1 million, compared to $250.2 million for the same period during the prior year, increasing by 97.9%. The outperformance in total revenues was driven by increases in real estate brokerage commissions and financing fees. Real estate brokerage commissions more than doubled to $455.5 million from the same period in the prior year primarily due to the growth in overall sales volume generated by an increase in the number of investment sales transactions. This growth was partially offset by a reduction in average commission rates due to a larger proportion of closed transactions from the Larger Transaction Market segment. Financing fees increased 27.5% to $34.2 million.

Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2021 were $413.2 million, an increase of 87.7% compared to $220.2 million for the same period in the prior year. The change was primarily driven by a 107.5% increase in cost of services and a 36.5% increase in selling, general and administrative expense. Cost of services as a percent of total revenues increased by 310 basis points to 67.3% compared to the same period during the prior year, primarily due to senior investment sales and financing professionals earning additional commissions as certain annual revenue thresholds were achieved earlier relative to prior years.

Selling, general and administrative expense for the fourth quarter of 2021 increased by $20.6 million to $77.0 million, compared to the same period in the prior year. The change was primarily due to increases in (i) compensation related costs, primarily driven by increases in management performance compensation due to a significant year-over-year growth in operating results; (ii) business development, marketing and other support related to the long-term retention of our sales and financing professionals; (iii) expenses related to our recent acquisitions; (iv) facilities expenses; and (v) net other expense categories, including events, travel and other related expenses.

Net income for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $62.0 million, or $1.53 per common share, diluted, compared to $23.6 million, or $0.59 per common share, diluted, for the same period in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $88.2 million, compared to $36.9 million for the same period in the prior year.

Full Year 2021 Results Compared to Full Year 2020

Total revenues for 2021 reached $1.3 billion, compared to $716.9 million for the same period in the prior year, which represents an increase of $579.5 million, or 80.8%. Total operating expenses for 2021 were $1.1 billion, compared to $663.3 million for the same period in the prior year, which represents an increase of 66.9%. Cost of services as a percent of total revenues increased to 64.8%, up 230 basis points compared to the same period in the prior year. Net income for 2021 was $142.5 million, or $3.55 per common share, diluted, compared with net income of $42.8 million, or $1.08 per common share, diluted, for the same period in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA for 2021 increased nearly threefold to $213.0 million, from $75.7 million for the same period in the prior year. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had 1,994 investment sales and financing professionals, a net reduction of 103 over the prior year.

Business Outlook

Notwithstanding the potential continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and anticipated interest rate increases on the current macroeconomic environment, the Company believes it is well positioned to achieve long-term growth.

The Company benefits from its experienced management team, infrastructure investments, industry-leading market research and proprietary technology. The size and fragmentation of the Private Client Market segment continues to offer long-term growth opportunities through consolidation. This highly fragmented market segment consistently accounts for over 80% of all commercial property sales transactions and over 60% of the commission pool. The top 10 brokerage firms led by MMI have an estimated 23% share of this segment by transaction count.

Key factors that may influence the Company’s business during 2022 include:

  • Volatility in market sales and investor sentiment driven by:
    • Slowdown in market sales of asset types impacted by COVID-19, interest rate fluctuations, increasing bid-ask spread between buyers and sellers, and economic trends
    • Changes to investor sentiment and sales activity based on interest rates and economic initiatives which may affect real estate investor demand
    • Possible impact to investor sentiment related to potential tax law changes which may contribute to transaction acceleration and/or future fluctuations in sales and financing activity
  • Potential higher cost of services resulting from more experienced investment sales and financing professionals closing a larger share of revenue and surpassing revenue thresholds earlier in the year
  • Volatility in each of the Company’s market segments
  • Increase in costs related to in-person events, client meetings, and conferences as the economy opens further
  • Global geopolitical uncertainty, which may cause investors to refrain from transacting
  • The potential for acquisition activity and subsequent integration

Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation

Adjusted EBITDA, which the Company defines as net income before (i) interest income and other, including net realized gains (losses) on marketable debt securities, available-for-sale and cash and cash equivalents, (ii) interest expense, (iii) provision for income taxes, (iv) depreciation and amortization, (v) stock-based compensation, and (vi) non-cash mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) activity. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA in its business operations to evaluate the performance of its business, develop budgets and measure its performance against those budgets, among other things. 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 a supplemental metric and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company finds Adjusted EBITDA to be a useful management metric to assist in evaluating performance, because Adjusted EBITDA eliminates items related to capital structure, taxes and non-cash items. 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 Company’s financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other measures calculated 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 the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, net income, to Adjusted EBITDA is as follows (in thousands):

The increase in Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020 is primarily due to an increase in total revenues and a lower proportion of operating expenses compared to total revenues.
