(1)   Attributable to Oppenheimer Holdings Inc.











The S&P 500 index increased 4.0% during the third quarter of 2017 driven by improving economic conditions, low interest rates, and improved corporate earnings. Despite geopolitical issues around the world (North Korea, Syria, and South China Sea) and destructive hurricanes hitting the U.S. mainland, the U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico, market volatility remained at historic lows during the period.  Expectations of another increase in short-term interest rates by the Federal Reserve in December 2017, the unwinding of the Federal Reserve's balance sheet, and the prospects of tax reform resulted in a stronger U.S. dollar and an increase in U.S. Treasury yields. The 10-Year Treasury yield ended the quarter at 2.33%.

Albert G. Lowenthal, Chairman and CEO commented, "Results from continuing operations improved significantly over the comparable period last year driven by increased investment banking activity, higher fee-based revenues from investment management, as well as higher fees from the FDIC-insured bank deposit program.  Investment banking results were positively impacted by increased participations in equities and debt underwritings.   The fee-based business continued to perform well driven by strong equity markets and the continued adoption of fee-based strategies by our wealth management clients propelling assets under management to record highs.  Trading activity and transaction revenues continued to decline as retail and institutional investor activity levels continued their long-term decline amid record low levels of volatility.  Spreads increased on our interest rate sensitive assets as we began to see the full benefit of the June 2017 increase in short-term interest rates."

Financial Highlights

  • Commission revenue was $77.6 million for the third quarter of 2017, a decrease of 13.8% compared with $90.0 million for the third quarter of 2016 due to reduced transaction volumes from retail and institutional investors and a lower financial adviser headcount during the third quarter of 2017.

  • Advisory fees were $74.3 million for the third quarter of 2017, an increase of 10.2% compared with $67.5 million for the third quarter of 2016 due to a higher level of client assets under management.

  • Investment banking revenue increased 18.0% to $23.9 million for the third quarter of 2017 compared with $20.3 million for the third quarter of 2016 due to higher equity and debt underwriting fees partially offset by lower merger and acquisition advisory fees during the third quarter of 2017.

  • Principal transactions revenue increased 4.3% to $5.1 million for the third quarter of 2017 compared with $4.9 million for the third quarter of 2016 due to higher income from fixed income trading during the third quarter of 2017.

(1) Effective January 1, 2017, the allocation of advisory fees between Private Client and Asset Management changed from 77.5% and 22.5% to 90.0% and 10.0%, respectively.

Private Client

Private Client reported revenue of $147.4 million for the third quarter of 2017, 15.3% higher than the third quarter of 2016 due to increased advisory fee revenue from higher client assets under management, changes in the revenue allocation with the Asset Management segment (see below) and higher fees earned on client deposits in the FDIC-insured bank deposit program offset by lower retail commissions during the third quarter of 2017.  The third quarter of 2017 was also positively impacted by an arbitration award and insurance proceeds, totaling $4.1 million.  Income before income taxes was $37.0 million for the third quarter of 2017, an increase of 83.5% compared with the third quarter of 2016 due to the increases in revenue referred to above during the third quarter of 2017.

  • Client assets under administration were $82.8 billion at September 30, 2017 compared with $77.2 billion at December 31, 2016, an increase of 7.3%.

  • Financial adviser headcount was 1,117 at the end of the third quarter of 2017, down from 1,177 at the end of the third quarter of 2016. The decline in financial adviser headcount since the third quarter of 2016 has resulted from the Company's attention to adviser productivity leading to attrition for less productive financial advisers. The decline in headcount also has been impacted by retirements and normal attrition.

  • Retail commissions were $48.1 million for the third quarter of 2017, a decrease of 11.6% from the third quarter of 2016 due to reduced transaction volumes from retail investors and a lower financial adviser headcount during the third quarter of 2017.

  • Advisory fee revenue on traditional and alternative managed products was $55.2 million for the third quarter of 2017, an increase of 22.1% from the third quarter of 2016 (see Asset Management below for further information). The increase in advisory fees was due to the increase in the value of client assets under management ("AUM") and the change in the allocation of advisory fees between the Private Client and Asset Management segments, effective January 1, 2017, which contributed to an increase of $5.6 million in revenue in the Private Client segment.

  • Fees earned on client cash deposits in the FDIC-insured bank deposit program were $21.1 million during the third quarter of 2017 versus $9.6 million for the third quarter of 2016. The increase was due primarily to higher short-term interest rates during the third quarter of 2017.

Asset Management

Asset Management reported revenue of $19.3 million for the third quarter of 2017, 17.0% lower than the third quarter of 2016 primarily due to the change in revenue allocation (see below).  Income before income taxes was $3.3 million for the third quarter of 2017, a decrease of 64.4% compared with the third quarter of 2016.

  • Advisory fee revenue on traditional and alternative managed products was $19.1 million for the third quarter of 2017, a decrease of 14.3% from the third quarter of 2016. Advisory fees are calculated based on the value of AUM at the end of the prior quarter which totaled $26.1 billion at June 30, 2017 ($24.3 billion at June 30, 2016) and are allocated to the Private Client and Asset Management business segments. Advisory fees decreased $5.6 million due to the change in the allocation of advisory fees between the Private Client and Asset Management segments which became effective January 1, 2017.

  • At September 30, 2017, AUM hit a record high of $27.2 billion, an increase of 10.6% compared with $24.6 billion at September 30, 2016. AUM at September 30, 2017 is the basis for advisory fee billings for the fourth quarter of 2017. The increase in AUM was comprised of asset appreciation of $1.7 billion and net contributions of assets of $0.9 billion.

Capital Markets

Capital Markets reported revenue of $58.8 million for the third quarter of 2017, 3.1% lower than the third quarter of 2016 due to lower institutional equities and fixed income commissions offset by higher fees from investment banking activities during the third quarter of 2017.  Loss before income taxes was $1.6 million for the third quarter of 2017, compared with a loss before income taxes of $1.1 million for the third quarter of 2016 due to the decreases in revenue referred to above offset by lower salaries and production-related compensation expenses during the third quarter of 2017.

  • Institutional equities commissions decreased 14.0% to $21.5 million for the third quarter of 2017 compared with the third quarter of 2016 due to lower volatility and trading volumes in the equity markets.

  • Advisory fees from investment banking activities decreased 47.7% to $6.8 million in the third quarter of 2017 compared with the third quarter of 2016 due to lower fees earned on completed mergers and acquisitions transactions during the third quarter of 2017.

  • Equity underwriting fees increased 234.3% to $11.7 million for the third quarter of 2017 compared with the third quarter of 2016 due to the Company's increased focus on equity issuance and penetration in the healthcare and technology sectors leading to higher equity underwriting activity during the period.

  • Revenue from Taxable Fixed Income decreased 7.6% to $13.3 million for the third quarter of 2017 compared with the third quarter of 2016 due to low volatility which led to decreased institutional fixed income activity during the third quarter of 2017.

  • Public Finance and Municipal Trading revenue increased 16.7% to $3.5 million for the third quarter of 2017 compared with the third quarter of 2016.

Compensation and Related Expenses

Compensation and related expenses (including salaries, production and incentive compensation, share-based compensation, deferred compensation, and other benefit-related items) totaled $142.1 million during the third quarter of 2017, roughly flat compared with the third quarter of 2016.  Lower production-related expenses were offset by higher incentive and share-based compensation costs during the third quarter of 2017. Compensation and related expenses as a percentage of revenue was 62.8% during the third quarter of 2017 compared with 67.2% during the third quarter of 2016.

Non-Compensation Expenses

Non-compensation expenses were $72.3 million during the third quarter of 2017, an increase of 1.4% compared with $71.3 million during the third quarter of 2016 due to higher interest and external portfolio manager expenses partially offset by lower legal and regulatory costs during the third quarter of 2017.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2017 was 37.4% compared with 41.5% for the third quarter of 2016 and reflects the Company's estimate of the annual effective tax rate adjusted for certain discrete items.

Discontinued Operations

During 2016, the Company completed the sales of substantially all of the assets of its Oppenheimer Multifamily Housing and Healthcare Finance Inc. ("OMHHF") subsidiary.  The following table is a summary of revenue and expenses from discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016:
