Highlights
|
• |
Investment advisory, administration fees and securities lending revenue increased $250 million from the first quarter of 2019, primarily driven by organic growth, the net positive impact of market beta and foreign exchange on average AUM, despite the impact of recent market volatility, and the effect of one more day in the quarter, partially offset by strategic pricing changes to certain products. Securities lending revenue of $158 million increased from $148 million in the first quarter of 2019. |
Investment advisory, administration fees and securities lending revenue decreased $34 million from the fourth quarter of 2019, driven by the impact of lower average AUM related to recent market declines and the effect of one less day in the quarter, partially offset by the impact of organic growth.

|
• |
Performance fees increased $15 million from the first quarter of 2019, primarily reflecting higher revenue from liquid alternative products. |

Highlights
|
• |
On February 13, 2020, BlackRock announced the establishment of The BlackRock Foundation (the “Foundation”) and the contribution of its remaining 20% stake in PennyMac Financial Services, Inc. to the Foundation and the BlackRock Charitable Fund, which BlackRock established in 2013 (the “Charitable Contribution”). The Charitable Contribution resulted in an operating expense of $589 million, which was offset by a $122 million noncash, nonoperating pre-tax gain on the contributed shares and a tax benefit of $241 million. The Charitable Contribution will provide long-term funding for BlackRock’s philanthropic investments and partnerships. |
|
• |
Employee compensation and benefits expense increased $73 million from the first quarter of 2019, primarily reflecting higher base compensation partially linked to a higher headcount. |
Employee compensation and benefits expense decreased $75 million from the fourth quarter of 2019, primarily reflecting lower incentive compensation, driven by lower operating income and lower performance fees, partially offset by higher seasonal payroll taxes and higher base compensation.
|
• |
Direct fund expense increased $35 million from the first quarter of 2019 and $32 million from the fourth quarter of 2019, reflecting higher average AUM. |
|
• |
General and administration expense increased $754 million from the first quarter of 2019, primarily driven by the Charitable Contribution and $84 million of product launch costs associated with the January 2020 close of the $2.3 billion BlackRock Health Sciences Trust II. The increase also reflected higher technology expense, including certain costs related to COVID-19, higher professional services expense, contingent consideration fair value adjustments related to prior acquisitions, and costs related to certain legal matters, including Aviron Capital, LLC., partially offset by lower marketing and promotional expense. |
General and administration expense increased $627 million from the fourth quarter of 2019, largely driven by the Charitable Contribution, $84 million of product launch costs and costs related to certain legal matters, including Aviron Capital, LLC., partially offset by seasonally lower marketing and promotional expense, lower contingent consideration fair value adjustments and lower foreign exchange remeasurement expense.

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 considers them to be helpful, for both management and investors, in evaluating 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. Non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
9
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 that 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. Management believes that operating margin, as adjusted, reflects the Company’s long-term ability to manage ongoing costs in relation to its revenues. The Company uses operating margin, as adjusted, to assess the Company’s financial performance and to determine the long-term and annual compensation of the Company’s senior-level employees. Furthermore, this metric is used to evaluate the Company’s relative performance against industry peers, as it eliminates margin variability arising from the accounting of revenues and expenses related to distributing different product structures in multiple distribution channels utilized by asset managers.
|
• |
Operating income, as adjusted, includes a non-GAAP expense adjustment. The Charitable Contribution expense of $589 million has been excluded from operating income, as adjusted, due to its nonrecurring nature. |
|
• |
Operating income used for measuring operating margin, as adjusted, is equal to operating income, as adjusted, excluding the impact of product launch costs (e.g. closed-end fund launch 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 calculating operating margin, as adjusted, is reduced to exclude all of the Company’s distribution fees, which are recorded as a separate line item on the condensed consolidated statements of income, as well as a portion of investment advisory fees received that is used to pay distribution and servicing costs. For certain products, based on distinct arrangements, distribution fees are collected by the Company and then passed-through to third-party client intermediaries. For other products, investment advisory fees are collected by the Company and a portion is passed-through to third-party client intermediaries. However, in both structures, the third-party client intermediary similarly owns the relationship with the retail client and is responsible for distributing the product and servicing the client. The amount of distribution and investment advisory fees fluctuates each period primarily based on a predetermined percentage of the value of AUM during the period. These fees also vary based on the type of investment product sold and the geographic location where it is sold. In addition, the Company may waive fees on certain products that could result in the reduction of payments to the third-party intermediaries. |
(2) Nonoperating income (expense), less net income (loss) attributable to NCI, as adjusted: Management believes nonoperating income (expense), less net income (loss) attributable to NCI, as adjusted, is an effective measure for reviewing BlackRock’s nonoperating contribution to its results and provides comparability of this information among reporting periods. Management believes nonoperating income (expense), less net income (loss) attributable to NCI, as adjusted, provides a useful measure, for both management and investors, of BlackRock’s nonoperating results, which ultimately impact BlackRock’s book value. The noncash, nonoperating pre-tax gain of $122 million related to the Charitable Contribution has been excluded from nonoperating income (expense), less net income (loss) attributable to NCI, as adjusted due to its nonrecurring nature.
(3) Net income attributable to BlackRock, Inc., as adjusted: Management believes net income attributable to BlackRock, Inc., as adjusted, and diluted earnings per common share, as adjusted, are useful measures of BlackRock’s profitability and financial performance. Net income attributable to BlackRock, Inc., as adjusted, equals net income attributable to BlackRock, Inc., GAAP basis, adjusted for significant nonrecurring items, charges that ultimately will not impact BlackRock’s book value or certain tax items that do not impact cash flow.
The first quarter of 2020 included a discrete tax benefit of $241 million recognized in connection with the Charitable Contribution. The discrete tax benefit has been excluded from as adjusted results due to the non-recurring nature of the Charitable Contribution. Amounts for income tax matters represent net noncash (benefits) expense primarily associated with the revaluation of certain deferred tax liabilities related to intangible assets and goodwill as a result of tax rate changes. These amounts have been excluded from the as adjusted results as these items will not have a cash flow impact and to ensure comparability among periods presented.
Per share amounts reflect net income attributable to BlackRock, Inc., as adjusted divided by diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.
(4) Nonvoting participating preferred stock is considered to be a common stock equivalent for purposes of determining basic and diluted earnings per share calculations.
