- Equity and fixed-income assets increase $13.3 billion during 2009
to $63.5 billion - Bond funds net $6.8 billion in flows during 2009
PITTSBURGH, Jan. 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Federated Investors,
Inc. (NYSE:FII), one of the nation's largest investment managers,
today reported earnings per diluted share (EPS) of $0.51 for the
quarter ended Dec. 31, 2009 compared to $0.53 for the same quarter
last year. Net income was $51.9 million for Q4 2009 compared to
$54.3 million for Q4 2008. For the year ended Dec. 31, 2009,
Federated reported EPS from continuing operations of $1.92 compared
to $2.15 for 2008, a decrease of 11 percent. For 2009, income from
continuing operations was $197.3 million compared to $221.5 million
for the same period in 2008. Earnings for 2009 included $21.3
million in non-cash impairment charges recognized primarily in Q1
2009. Federated's total managed assets were $389.3 billion at Dec.
31, 2009, down $18.0 billion or 4 percent from $407.3 billion at
Dec. 31, 2008 and down $3.0 billion or 1 percent from $392.3
billion reported at Sept. 30, 2009. Average managed assets for Q4
2009 were $388.1 billion, up $18.3 billion or 5 percent from $369.8
billion reported for Q4 2008 and down $20.0 billion or 5 percent
from $408.1 billion reported for Q3 2009. "With better market
conditions in 2009, Federated experienced strong demand for
fixed-income and equity products," said J. Christopher Donahue,
president and chief executive officer. "Gross sales of fixed-income
and equity funds increased 64 percent from 2008. In particular,
fixed-income fund sales were strong as investors valued our
consistent fund performance over a multi-year period." Federated's
board of directors declared a dividend of $1.50 per share. The
dividend, which will be paid in cash, is considered an ordinary
dividend for tax purposes and consists of a $0.24 quarterly
dividend and a $1.26 special dividend. The dividend is payable on
Feb. 12, 2010 to shareholders of record as of Feb. 5, 2010. "The
February 2010 special dividend rewards shareholders for the success
that Federated achieved in 2009," said Thomas R. Donahue, chief
financial officer. "Through our diversified business mix and the
efforts of our outstanding employees, Federated has successfully
navigated through the challenges of the last several quarters and
remains well positioned for new growth opportunities." In addition,
during Q4 2009, Federated purchased 50,000 shares of Federated
class B common stock for $1.3 million. In 2009, the company
purchased 828,918 shares of Federated class B common stock for
$20.1 million. Federated's fixed-income assets were $33.8 billion
at Dec. 31, 2009, up $10.3 billion or 44 percent from $23.5 billion
at Dec. 31, 2008 and up $1.8 billion or 6 percent from $32.0
billion at Sept. 30, 2009. Federated experienced continued strong
net positive flows into its bond funds with $1.3 billion during Q4
2009, bringing total net bond fund inflows to $6.8 billion for
2009, an increase of $5.4 billion over 2008. Net sales were driven
by strong flows into ultrashort bond funds and intermediate-term
bond funds including Federated Total Return Bond Fund. Federated's
equity assets were $29.7 billion at Dec. 31, 2009, up $3.0 billion
or 11 percent from $26.7 billion at Dec. 31, 2008 and up $0.6
billion or 2 percent from $29.1 billion at Sept. 30, 2009. During
Q4 2009, Federated's net flows into equity funds were $67 million.
Equity fund net outflows improved to $47 million for 2009 compared
to net outflows of $2.2 billion in 2008. Net sales were led by
Federated Prudent Bear Fund, Federated Strategic Value Fund and
Federated Market Opportunity Fund. Money market assets in both
funds and separate accounts were $313.3 billion at Dec. 31, 2009,
down $42.4 billion or 12 percent from $355.7 billion at Dec. 31,
2008 and down $4.8 billion or 2 percent from $318.1 billion at
Sept. 30, 2009. Money market mutual fund assets were $281.6 billion
at Dec. 31, 2009, down $45.7 billion or 14 percent from $327.3
billion at Dec. 31, 2008 and down $6.0 billion or 2 percent from
$287.6 billion at Sept. 30, 2009. Financial Summary Q4 2009 vs. Q4
2008 For Q4 2009, revenue decreased by $37.0 million or 12 percent
from the same quarter last year. The decrease in revenue primarily
reflects a $54.1 million increase in voluntary fee waivers related
to certain money market funds in order to maintain positive or zero
net yields. This increase in fee waivers was largely offset by a
related decrease in marketing and distribution expenses of $40.7
million such that the net impact on operating income was a decrease
of $13.4 million. In addition, revenue decreased due to lower
average money market managed assets. These decreases were partially
offset by the impact of increased average fixed-income and equity
managed assets. Fee waivers to produce positive or zero net yields
may increase and such increases could be significant. The amount of
these waivers will be determined by a variety of factors including
available yields on instruments held by the money market funds,
changes in assets within money market funds, actions by the Federal
Reserve and the U.S. Department of the Treasury, changes in the mix
of money market customer assets, changes in expenses of the money
market funds and Federated's willingness to continue these waivers.
In Q4 2009, Federated derived 56 percent of its revenue from money
market assets, 43 percent from fluctuating assets (28 percent from
equity assets and 15 percent from fixed-income assets) and 1
percent from other products and services. Operating expenses for Q4
2009 were $178.4 million compared to $216.0 million for Q4 2008.
This change was primarily a result of lower marketing and
distribution expenses due to the aforementioned fee-waiver-related
reductions. Q4 2009 vs. Q3 2009 Compared to the prior quarter,
revenue decreased by $28.8 million or 10 percent. The decrease in
revenue primarily reflects a $21.0 million increase in voluntary
fee waivers on certain money market funds in order to maintain
positive or zero net yields. This increase in fee waivers was
largely offset by a related decrease in marketing and distribution
expenses of $14.7 million such that the net impact on operating
income was a decrease of $6.3 million compared to the prior
quarter. In addition, revenue decreased due to lower average money
market managed assets. These decreases were partially offset by the
impact of increased average equity and fixed-income managed assets.
Compared to Q3 2009, operating expenses decreased by $20.4 million
or 10 percent. Changes from the prior period include a decrease in
marketing and distribution expenses primarily related to the
aforementioned fee-waiver-related reductions. 2009 vs. 2008 Revenue
for 2009 decreased by $47.7 million or 4 percent compared to last
year. The decrease in revenue primarily reflects a $117.0 million
increase in voluntary fee waivers on certain money market funds in
order to maintain positive or zero net yields. This increase in fee
waivers was largely offset by a related decrease in marketing and
distribution expenses of $84.5 million such that the net impact on
operating income was a decrease of $32.5 million. In addition,
revenue decreased due to lower average equity managed assets. These
decreases were partially offset by the impact of increased average
money market and fixed-income managed assets. In 2009, Federated
derived 65 percent of its revenue from money market assets, 35
percent from fluctuating assets (23 percent from equity assets and
12 percent from fixed-income assets). Operating expenses for 2009
decreased by $15.8 million or 2 percent compared to last year.
Changes from the prior year include a decrease in marketing and
distribution expenses primarily related to the aforementioned
fee-waivers offset by the impact of average asset changes, higher
acquisition-related compensation expense and non-cash impairment
charges to write down certain intangible assets in Q1 2009.
Compared to 2008, professional service fees, travel and related and
advertising and promotional expenses all decreased during 2009 due,
in part, to companywide cost-saving initiatives. Federated's level
of business activity and financial results are dependent upon many
factors including market conditions, investment performance and
investor behavior. These factors and others including asset levels,
product sales and redemptions, market appreciation or depreciation,
revenues, fee waivers and expenses can impact Federated's activity
levels and financial results significantly. Risk factors and
uncertainties that can influence Federated's financial results are
discussed in the company's annual and quarterly reports as filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Federated will host an

fixed-income securities and liquidating collateralized debt
obligation (CDO) products. In the distressed security category,
Federated has been retained by a third party to manage these assets
through an orderly liquidation process that will generally occur
over a multi-year period. In the case of liquidating CDOs, the CDO
structure has unwound earlier than expected due to events of
default related to certain distressed securities in the portfolio.
Management fee rates earned from these portfolios are significantly
different than those of traditional separate account mandates. (2)
For certain accounts, Net customer flows are calculated as the
remaining difference between beginning and ending assets after the
calculation of Market gains and losses/reinvestments. (3) Reflects
the approximate changes in the market value of the securities held
in the portfolios, and, to a lesser extent, reinvested dividends,
distributions, net investment income and the impact of changes in
foreign exchange rates. (in millions) Dec. 31, Sept. 30, June 30,
