Resilient business line revenues drove performance as pullback in transaction activity continued into Q2
CHICAGO, Aug. 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Jones Lang LaSalle Incorporated (NYSE: JLL) today reported operating income of $149.2 million for the second quarter of 2023. Diluted earnings per share were $0.05 and adjusted diluted earnings per share1 were $0.50 for the quarter; both included a loss of $1.69 per diluted share associated with equity losses. In the prior-year quarter, equity earnings contributed earnings of $0.89 per diluted share.
- Second-quarter revenue was $5.1 billion, down 4% in local currency1, and fee revenue1 was $1.8 billion, down 13% in local currency1
- Market-wide transaction slowdown and extended interest rate uncertainty continued to impact Capital Markets volumes
- Lower Leasing activity across asset classes and most geographies overshadowed Property Management growth within Markets Advisory
- Project Management demand continued in several geographies, more than offsetting lower Portfolio Services revenues in Work Dynamics
- Margin contraction was driven by lower transaction-based revenues, particularly in United States and Europe, and a non-cash change in equity earnings/losses primarily associated with two JLL Technologies investments
- Annual run-rate savings rose $70 million to $210 million in total; recent cost reduction actions mostly offset investments to drive future growth
- Generated year-over-year improvement in Q2 cash provided by operating activities despite transaction-based revenue headwinds
“Our second quarter financial results reflect continued growth in our resilient revenues. While investment sales and leasing volumes remained muted across the industry this quarter, we are beginning to see recovery signs as credit spreads narrow and asset prices adjust to the current rate environment,” said Christian Ulbrich, JLL CEO. “We continue to make progress on our long-term plan to improve operating efficiency while also making targeted investments in our brokerage teams that will drive profitable growth as market conditions improve. We are well positioned to provide exceptional service to our clients globally and capitalize on the significant growth opportunities we see in the years ahead.”

Revenue
Revenue and fee revenue decreased 4% and 13%, respectively, compared with the prior-year quarter. Businesses with resilient revenues continued to deliver fee revenue growth for the quarter, as JLL Technologies was up 18%; Property Management, within Markets Advisory, grew 9%; and Workplace Management, within Work Dynamics, grew 2%. Consistent with the first quarter, economic headwinds and continued interest rate uncertainty adversely impacted most of the transaction-based businesses, notably Investment Sales and Debt/Equity Advisory within Capital Markets, Leasing within Markets Advisory, and Portfolio Services and Other within Work Dynamics. However, Project Management, within Work Dynamics, was up 8% due to continued project demand in several geographies. LaSalle’s double-digit top-line growth was attributable to higher incentive fees.
Refer to segment performance highlights for additional detail. The following charts reflect the segment proportion of revenue and fee revenue for the current and prior-year quarters.
Net income (loss), Adjusted EBITDA and Margin Performance
Net income attributable to common shareholders for the second quarter was $2.5 million, compared with $193.9 million in 2022, and Adjusted EBITDA was $116.1 million, compared with $359.0 million last year. The current quarter included $103.5 million of equity losses compared with $53.6 million of equity earnings in the prior-year quarter. In addition, interest expense, net of interest income, increased $24.8 million, compared with the prior year, due to an increase in the average outstanding borrowings under our credit facilities and a higher effective interest rate.
Diluted earnings per share for the second quarter were $0.05, down from $3.90 in 2022; adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.50, compared with $4.48 last year.
Approximately 740 basis points, or 70%, of the adjusted EBITDA margin contraction was driven by the change in equity earnings/losses, net of carried interest. The residual decline was primarily due to lower transaction-based revenue, specifically Investment Sales, Debt/Equity Advisory, and Leasing. In addition, recent cost reduction actions mostly offset investments in the business to drive future growth.
The six months ended June 30, 2023, had a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $6.7 million, compared with income of $339.5 million last year, and Adjusted EBITDA was $225.1 million this year, compared with $632.6 million in 2022. Diluted loss per share was $0.14 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, down from diluted earnings per share of $6.75 in 2022; adjusted diluted earnings per share were $1.15, compared with $7.94 last year.
Cash Flows and Capital Allocation:
Net cash provided by operating activities was $237.0 million for the second quarter of 2023, compared with $177.0 million in the comparative quarter. Free Cash Flow5 was an inflow of $198.1 million this quarter, compared with $136.7 million in the second quarter of 2022. Incremental cash flows associated with net reimbursables and trade receivables outpaced a decline in cash provided by earnings. The year-over-year decline in cash provided by earnings and lower cash outflows associated with commission payments for the second quarter were largely driven by the Capital Markets and Markets Advisory change in business performance.
In the second quarter of 2023, the company resumed its share repurchase program, buying back 139,295 shares for $20.0 million. In the second quarter of 2022, 1,397,900 shares were repurchased, returning $297.7 million to shareholders. As of June 30, 2023, $1,135.6 million remained authorized for repurchase under the share repurchase program.

The decrease in Net Debt from March 31, 2023, was primarily due to positive cash flow from operating activities in the second quarter. The higher leverage ratio was entirely driven by a decline in the trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA (which includes the impact of equity losses this quarter).

The declines in Markets Advisory revenue and fee revenue, compared with the prior-year quarter, were predominantly driven by Leasing, which continues to reflect (i) lower transaction volume across asset types, particularly in the office and industrial sectors, and (ii) a decrease in average deal size across most asset types, most notably in the United States industrial sector. Specific to the office sector, the change in Leasing fee revenue was largely in line with trends in global market volumes as gross absorption fell 14%, globally, according to JLL Research. The decrease in Advisory, Consulting and Other was substantially driven by the absence of revenues associated with a business exited during the fourth quarter of 2022. These decreases were partially offset by Property Management growth, which was primarily attributable to portfolio expansion in the Americas and incremental fees from interest-rate sensitive contract terms in the U.K.
The adjusted EBITDA margin contraction was predominantly attributable to the lower Leasing fee revenue described above.

The lower Capital Markets revenue and fee revenue continued to reflect muted transaction volume compared with 2022. This impact was most acute in Investment Sales and Debt/Equity Advisory, which experienced declines across all asset classes and most geographies compared with the prior-year quarter. This outperformed broader market trends as Q2 global market volumes for investment sales were down 54% in USD (53% in local currency) according to JLL Research. The decline in Loan Servicing was attributable to $3.7 million of lower prepayment fees, as refinancing activity slowed over the last twelve months, mostly offset by continued growth in the portfolio originated under the Fannie Mae DUS program.
The adjusted EBITDA margin contraction for the quarter was predominantly driven by the decline in fee revenue described above and a $7.0 million year-over-year negative change in loan loss credit reserves. In addition, higher equity earnings, which are not expected to recur in future years, provided a modest boost for the current quarter.

Work Dynamics revenue and fee revenue increases compared with the prior-year quarter were driven by strength in Project Management and modest growth in Workplace Management, partially offset by lower Portfolio Services and Other. Project Management growth reflected continued demand in certain geographies, most notably Australia, France, MENA and the U.K. The decline in Portfolio Services revenue reflected the meaningful correlation between Portfolio Services and Leasing activity.
The net margin contraction was attributable to the decline in higher-margin Portfolio Services revenue and continued investments in technology and headcount to support future growth. In addition, and partially offsetting these dilutive impacts, the prior-year margin reflected $4.1 million of net contract losses in Europe which did not recur this quarter.

(a) Included in Segment operating loss for JLL Technologies is a reduction in carried interest expense of $10.0 million and $9.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and carried interest expense of $9.8 million and $16.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, related to Equity earnings of the segment. |
|||||||||||||||
The increases in JLL Technologies revenue and fee revenue over the prior-year quarter were primarily driven by growth in solutions and service offerings, largely from existing enterprise clients.
The current-quarter equity loss resulted from valuation declines in JLL Technologies’ investments due to subsequent financing rounds at decreased per-share values. The equity losses this quarter were predominantly driven by two investments for which we previously recognized significant equity earnings.
A notable driver of the change in Segment operating loss is a $10.0 million reduction in carried interest expense this quarter, associated with the equity losses, compared with $9.8 million of incremental expense last year, associated with the equity earnings.
The margin decline was entirely driven by the year-over-year change in equity earnings/losses, net of carried interest, as fee revenue growth and recent cost reductions drove improvement in segment operating loss.

LaSalle revenue and fee revenue growth over the prior-year quarter was driven by incentive fees earned on assets managed on behalf of clients, specifically in Japan and United States. This increase was offset by slightly lower advisory fees as a result of recent valuation declines impacting assets under management.
The current quarter’s equity losses were primarily attributable to valuation declines in the co-investment portfolio, compared with valuation increases in the prior year.
The adjusted EBITDA margin contraction was primarily attributable to the net equity losses, partially offset by higher incentive fees in the current-year quarter.

(a) During the second quarter of 2022, Other income included a $142.3 million gain by a consolidated variable interest entity in which the company held no equity interest. This gain, therefore, is also included in the period’s net income attributable to noncontrolling interest. As a result, there is no net impact to Net income attributable to common shareholders (or other measures like Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted earnings per share). |

Financial Statement Notes
1. Management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to develop budgets and forecasts, measure and reward performance against those budgets and forecasts, and enhance comparability to prior periods. These measures are believed to be useful to investors and other external stakeholders as supplemental measures of core operating performance and include the following:
(i) Fee revenue and Fee-based operating expenses,
(ii) Adjusted EBITDA attributable to common shareholders (“Adjusted EBITDA”) and Adjusted EBITDA margin,
(iii) Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders and Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share,
(iv) Percentage changes against prior periods, presented on a local currency basis, and
(v) Free Cash Flow.
However, non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered alternatives to measures determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Any measure that eliminates components of a company’s capital structure, cost of operations or investments, or other results has limitations as a performance measure. In light of these limitations, management also considers GAAP financial measures and does not rely solely on non-GAAP financial measures. Because the company’s non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Adjustments to GAAP Financial Measures Used to Calculate non-GAAP Financial Measures
Gross Contract Costs represent certain costs associated with client-dedicated employees and third-party vendors and subcontractors and are directly or indirectly reimbursed through the fees we receive. These costs are presented on a gross basis in Operating expenses with the equal amount of corresponding fees in Revenue. Excluding gross contract costs from both Fee revenue and Fee-based operating expenses more accurately reflects how the company manages its expense base and operating margins and also enables a more consistent performance assessment across a portfolio of contracts with varying payment terms and structures.
Net Non-Cash Mortgage Servicing Rights (“MSR”) and Mortgage Banking Derivative Activity consists of the balances presented within Revenue composed of (i) derivative gains/losses resulting from mortgage banking loan commitment and warehousing activity and (ii) gains recognized from the retention of MSR upon origination and sale of mortgage loans, offset by (iii) amortization of MSR intangible assets over the period that net servicing income is projected to be received. Non-cash derivative gains/losses resulting from mortgage banking loan commitment and warehousing activity are calculated as the estimated fair value of loan commitments and subsequent changes thereof, primarily represented by the estimated net cash flows associated with future servicing rights. MSR gains and corresponding MSR intangible assets are calculated as the present value of estimated cash flows over the estimated mortgage servicing periods. The above activity is reported entirely within Revenue of the Capital Markets segment. Excluding net non-cash MSR and mortgage banking derivative activity reflects how the company manages and evaluates performance because the excluded activity is non-cash in nature.
Restructuring and Acquisition Charges primarily consist of: (i) severance and employment-related charges, including those related to external service providers, incurred in conjunction with a structural business shift, which can be represented by a notable change in headcount, change in leadership or transformation of business processes; (ii) acquisition, transaction and integration-related charges, including fair value adjustments, which are generally non-cash in the periods such adjustments are made, to assets and liabilities recorded in purchase accounting such as earn-out liabilities and intangible assets; and (iii) lease exit charges. Such activity is excluded as the amounts are generally either non-cash in nature or the anticipated benefits from the expenditures would not likely be fully realized until future periods. Restructuring and acquisition charges are excluded from segment operating results and therefore are not line items in the segments’ reconciliation to Adjusted EBITDA.
Amortization of Acquisition-Related Intangibles, primarily composed of the estimated fair value ascribed at closing of an acquisition to assets such as acquired management contracts, customer backlog and relationships, and trade name, is more notable following the company’s increase in acquisition activity in recent years. Such non-cash activity is excluded as the change in period-over-period activity is generally the result of longer-term strategic decisions and therefore not necessarily indicative of core operating results.
Gain or Loss on Disposition reflects the gain or loss recognized on the sale of businesses. Given the low frequency of business disposals by the company historically, the gain or loss directly associated with such activity is excluded as it is not considered indicative of core operating performance. In 2023, the $1.8 million loss related to the disposition of a business in Markets Advisory. In 2022, the $7.5 million net loss included $10.5 million of loss related to the disposition of the Russia business, partially offset by a $3.0 million gain related to a disposition within JLL Technologies.
Interest on Employee Loans, Net of Forgiveness reflects interest accrued on employee loans less the amount of accrued interest forgiven. Certain employees (predominantly in our Leasing and Capital Markets businesses) receive cash payments structured as loans, with interest. Employees earn forgiveness of the loan based on performance, generally calculated as a percentage of revenue production. Such forgiven amounts are reflected in Compensation and benefits expense. Given the interest accrued on these employee loans and subsequent forgiveness are non-cash and the amounts perfectly offset over the life of the loan, the activity is not indicative of core operating performance and is excluded from non-GAAP measures.

Operating Results – Local Currency
In discussing operating results, the company reports Adjusted EBITDA margins and refers to percentage changes in local currency, unless otherwise noted. Amounts presented on a local currency basis are calculated by translating the current period results of foreign operations to U.S. dollars using the foreign currency exchange rates from the comparative period. Management believes this methodology provides a framework for assessing performance and operations excluding the effect of foreign currency fluctuations.
The following table reflects the reconciliation to local currency amounts for consolidated (i) revenue, (ii) fee revenue, (iii) operating income and (iv) Adjusted EBITDA.
