LOS ANGELES, July 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- B. Riley Financial, Inc. (NASDAQ:RILY) ("B. Riley" or the "Company") today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020.

Second Quarter 2020 Financial Highlights

GAAP consolidated revenues of $266.5 million, adjusted EBITDA ⁽¹⁾ of $148.3 million
Net income available to common shareholders of $82.8 million, or $3.07 per diluted share
Operating revenues ⁽²⁾ of $151.9 million and operating adjusted EBITDA ⁽³⁾of $46.8 million
Investment gains ⁽⁴⁾ of $114.5 million driven by second quarter market rebound

"Our second quarter results demonstrate our ability to successfully execute on our strategy in a challenging environment created by COVID-19. Our overall business continued to deliver solid performance, while our investment book rebounded sharply from the mark-to-market losses we experienced in the first quarter," said Bryant Riley, Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer, B. Riley Financial. "Operating adjusted EBITDA was approximately $117 million for the first six months versus $62 million during the same period in 2019, and increased year-over-year for the second quarter despite the effects of COVID-19 on our retail, brands and appraisal businesses. These results highlight the diversity of our business model and the resiliency of our platform to overcome the impact of COVID-19."

"Investment banking activity accelerated with several noteworthy capital markets transactions, including SPAC and ATM deals. In addition, our counter-cyclical businesses experienced an increase in activity following the initial slowdown in March," Riley continued. "Our bankruptcy and restructuring advisory and banking divisions added a record number of new mandates in June, several of which are ongoing. Retail liquidation activity also resumed in June with several new and returning clients. We expect activity will continue through year-end as COVID-19 accelerates retail industry challenges. Similarly, business for our real estate division increased as retailers and property owners reassess long-term lease and real estate plans."

Riley added, "The ongoing impact of COVID-19 creates limited visibility, but also tremendous opportunities where we believe our diversified platform will continue to serve as a competitive advantage. To that end, we are increasing our regular dividend to $0.30 per common share with an additional special dividend of $0.05 per share for the quarter. We will continue to aggressively leverage our resources and deliver on our mandate to perform for our employees, clients, partners, and shareholders."

Capital Markets operating revenues ⁽²⁾ increased to $111.4 million compared to $88.7 million for the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by several banking and capital market transactions that closed during the quarter, in addition to contributions from financial consulting operations.
Auction and Liquidation results reflect retail liquidation projects that closed during the quarter following the pause in March due to COVID-19 stay-at-home orders and social-distancing restrictions. These results tend to be variable from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year due to the episodic impact of large retail liquidation engagements.
Valuation and Appraisal results declined from the prior year quarter due to a slowdown in financing activity by lenders and COVID-19 related travel restrictions. Historical results for this segment have otherwise remained relatively steady from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year.
Principal Investments companies, United Online and magicJack, continued to perform above expectations, contributing steady cash flow for B. Riley. Segment income increased to $9.2 million from $7.8 million for the prior year period.

As of June 30, 2020, cash and investments totaled $899.5 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $106.3 million. The Company's investment balance included approximately $61 million of other equity investments and deposits reported in prepaid and other assets. Total net debt, including investments reported in prepaid and other assets, was $12.5 million.

Share Repurchases
During the second quarter, the Company repurchased over 200,000 shares of its common stock under its existing share repurchase program. In July, B. Riley announced an agreement to repurchase 900,000 shares of its common stock as part of a privately negotiated transaction. Year-to-date through July, B. Riley has repurchased approximately 1.7 million of its common shares.

Dividend
B. Riley's Board of Directors approved an increase in the Company's regular dividend to $0.30 per common share, from the previous dividend of $0.25 per common share. The Company has also declared a one-time, special dividend of $0.05 per common share for the quarter. A total quarterly dividend of $0.35 per common share will be paid on or about August 28, 2020 to stockholders of record as of August 14, 2020.
