TORONTO, ONTARIO — (Marketwire) — 12/06/12 — Integrated Asset Management Corp. (“IAM”) (TSX: IAM) today announced audited financial results for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. Net loss was $1.7 million or $0.06 per share in the current year versus net income and comprehensive income of $4.4 million or $0.15 per share in the prior year. EBITDA decreased from $5.5 million in 2011 to $0.2 million in fiscal 2012 due primarily to net performance fees which were $4.3 million lower. EBITDA was also adversely affected by lower management fees resulting from lower AUM.
AUM decreased by approximately $360 million during fiscal 2012 to $1.9 billion; principally the result of the end of a segregated fund managed by Real Estate Asset Management and also the distribution to investors of the principal received on loans in Private Corporate Debt-s funds.
Performance fees of $1.9 million were realized in fiscal 2012, of which $1.8 million were in Real Estate Asset Management and $0.1 million in Retail Alternative Investments. In fiscal 2011, performance fees of $8.9 million were realized, of which $5.7 million were in Real Estate Asset Management and $3.2 million in Retail Alternative Investments.
Victor Koloshuk, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of IAM said “Fiscal 2012 was disappointing with the profitability of all divisions being below expectations and with the decline in AUM. However, the performance of our portfolio managers on behalf of all our clients has been excellent and this bodes well for our new funds which are now being launched”.
For detailed financial statements for the year, including Management-s Discussion and Analysis and the Corporation-s Annual Information Form, please refer to IAM-s website or SEDAR at after December 12, 2012.
