Ladenburg Thalmann Sends Annual Letter to Shareholders
8:00a ET April 10, 2013 (Business Wire)
Ladenburg Thalmann Financial Services Inc. (NYSE MKT: LTS) ("Ladenburg" or the "Company") today announced that the Company sent the following annual letter to its shareholders from the Chairman of the Board, Dr. Phillip Frost, and the Company's President & Chief Executive Officer, Richard J. Lampen:
Dear Fellow Shareholder:
2012 was a most notable year for Ladenburg Thalmann. By the metrics of revenues, adjusted EBITDA and cash flow, it was a period of remarkable growth. More importantly, 2012 was the year that all the elements of our business strategy -- which has been to combine the more stable and recurring revenue and cash flows of the Independent Brokerage and Advisory Services (IBD) business with the more volatile and cyclical, but potentially highly-profitable capital markets and investment banking businesses -- gained the synergies and critical mass that we believe will allow us to achieve the enduring growth and profitability that is our intention and our shareholders' aspiration.
Let us review some highlights of 2012 and the underlying business developments behind these achievements before providing an outlook on 2013 and beyond.
2012 Overview
- In 2012, revenues increased 138% to $650.1 million. Much of that
growth was achieved by our recent acquisition of Securities
America. However, apart from Securities America's contribution,
revenues in our independent brokerage and advisory services
segments increased by 11% and the revenues of our investment
banking business increased by 6%. Ladenburg's revenues have
increased 2,118% since our current management took the helm in
2006.
- For the second year in a row, our adjusted EBITDA more than tripled
over the previous year, to $30.5 million in 2012. Again, Securities
America figured prominently in this year's substantial improvement,
but also significant were the contributions achieved by our existing
advisors growing their businesses and our successful recruiting of
higher producing advisors throughout our independent advisory
platform, as well as increased investment banking activity.
- Cash flow from operations for 2012 was $7.6 million compared to
-$33.3 million in 2011.
- The smooth integration of Securities America into Ladenburg was
accomplished, while we maintained strong, organic growth of over 10%
at our other IBD subsidiaries -- Investacorp and Triad Advisors.
- Our IBD business, which boasts over 2,700 independent financial
advisors, with approximately $75 billion in total client assets, is
now widely recognized in the IBD industry as a leader in terms of
client assets and revenues.
- We made important advancements in our technology and practice
management tools, and enhanced our suite of wealth management
products -- such as advisor-friendly Trust Services through Premier
Trust -- that support our independent financial advisors.
- The high performing teams of Eagle One Investments and Investors
Security Company were added to Securities America, which achieved an
outstanding 309% increase in recruited Gross Dealer Concession
revenues in 2012.
- A fixed income trading desk was established at Ladenburg Thalmann &
Co. Inc. to serve our entire network of advisors.
- We enhanced our highly-productive investment banking business by
hiring several senior industry specialists in energy and healthcare.
- Our investment banking group participated in 102 offerings, raising
over $19 billion for clients in healthcare, biotechnology, energy,
real estate, specialty finance and other industries.
- We satisfied conditions for a significant forgiveness of our
clearing firm loan from National Financial Services LLC, a Fidelity
Investments(R) company.
- Ladenburg Thalmann Asset Management (LTAM), our internal wealth
management division surpassed $1 billion in assets under management
for the first time, ending the year with $1.3 billion.
Ladenburg's Independent Brokerage and Advisory Services (IBD) Business
There are strong and undeniable demographic trends that make the independent brokerage and advisory services business one of the most attractive areas of the financial services industry. The growth of this business is driven by the graying of approximately 78 million American baby boomers (born between 1945-64), who hold the majority of household investable assets. An estimated ten thousand baby boomers turn sixty-five every day and as they retire there is an expected mass transition of assets from 401(k) and other corporate pension plans to Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs). These people need to take responsibility for the management of their retirement assets and are increasingly seeking independent financial advice and management. The future of this business looks exceptionally vibrant, with total retirement assets in the U.S. projected to grow 6.5% per year through 2017. The growth prospects for this sector may extend far beyond 2017, as only the 1945-52 portion of this generation will have reached the age of sixty-five by then.
Simultaneously, there has been an exodus of financial representatives from other venues, including the wirehouses, to the IBD channel. Some of the more pervasive reasons have been the recent problems and resulting negative publicity incurred by many of our largest banks, the far greater pay-out for representatives in the IBD model, and the appeal of a more entrepreneurial culture. Another very important factor for both the advisors and their clients has been the desire for independent financial advice. Under the IBD model, the advisor is free to choose among a vast array of financial products, with their sole concern to select the best investments for their client, without regard for their company's priorities and mandates concerning their proprietary products. For the client, this independence removes a potential conflict of interest: "Is my advisor or broker doing what's best for me or what's best for his company and his career." Independence creates a sense of trust, a sense that the clients and their advisor are on the same team.
Through our acquisitions of Investacorp (2007), Triad Advisors (2008) and most recently Securities America (November 2011), one of the preeminent IBD franchises in the U.S., Ladenburg is now widely recognized in the industry as a leader in terms of client assets and revenues. We now have both the size and industry leading technology, back office services, marketing and practice management programs that allow us to compete successfully with any IBD firms in the marketplace. We also believe that we have built a meaningfully differentiated independent platform by offering our advisors the unique and valued benefits of access to Ladenburg Thalmann and Co. Inc.'s (LTCO) proprietary equity research, wealth management division and capital market products, together with the trust services and planning capabilities of Premier Trust (acquired 2010). These are distinct competitive advantages in attracting advisors and other broker/dealers to our platform and in helping them to prosper.
As we look ahead to 2013, we are poised to drive strong growth at all our independent brokerage firms, both organically and through disciplined strategic acquisitions.
Ladenburg's Investment Banking and Capital Markets Business
Separate from the building momentum in our independent business, we have made substantial strides in our investment banking and capital markets business. Our emphasis continues to be on advising clients in middle-market investment banking, where we have significant experience and a unique understanding of the challenges companies face when building their businesses.
We have assembled a highly experienced team of bankers based in both New York and Miami, along with 16 equity research analysts covering approximately 180 public companies (with a focus on yield-oriented equities in sectors such as MLPs, REITs and specialty finance as well as technology, healthcare and utilities) and 30 institutional salesmen/traders covering investors worldwide -- all working with a commitment to help clients capitalize on their full potential.
Notably, we brought on a team of seasoned and talented traders to launch our fixed income trading desk, Ladenburg Fixed Income (LFIX). This group has been working with our independent advisors to identify what fixed income solutions are available for their clients on an individualized basis. The LFIX team has established themselves as an on-call team of specialists with expertise to assist in developing solutions for clients that seek to increase yields, navigate tax-efficient strategies, and provide timely and competitive executions in all areas of fixed income investing. This is just the latest step in a series of developments and acquisitions that have broadened the scope of differentiated services and products that we can provide to our clients.
LTAM, our internal wealth management division, had an outstanding 2012, surpassing $1 billion in assets under management, with $1.3 billion in over 2,500 accounts at year end. LTAM applies the core investment principles of portfolio diversification, risk management and disciplined, long-term investing in the management of its four proprietary programs, LAMP, ICS, 401(k), and Architect. In addition to managing these successful programs, LTAM plays an important role in supporting the advisory businesses at our independent firms.
In 2012, we continued to build on our track record of completing successful capital raises on behalf of our clients, by participating in 102 offerings, which raised over $19 billion for companies in a wide variety of industries, including healthcare, biotechnology, energy, technology, financial services and real estate. A particular strong area has been in the sector of "yield-oriented products". LTCO has been a leader in underwriting publicly-traded, higher-yielding products in the three verticals of Mortgage and Property Real Estate Trusts (REITs), Business Development Companies (BDCs) and Energy Master Limited Partnerships (MLPs). Since 2010, LTCO has participated as a manager in 101 such deals, which raised over $11.7 billion.
As we look ahead to 2013, we believe our investment banking pipeline is strong and growing.
Ladenburg's Net Income, Recurring Revenues and Stock Repurchase Program
Amidst the extraordinary growth of 2012, we had a net loss of $16.35 million compared to a net profit of $3.89 million in 2011. The decrease was primarily due to an income tax benefit of $16.20 million in 2011 caused by a reduction of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance in the Securities America acquisition. The rest of the differential is due in large part to increased interest expense and non-cash depreciation, amortization and compensation expenses in the 2012 period arising from the Securities America acquisition. These latter expenses will diminish in the future, but they are the toll required to build our impressive body of corporate assets. Management strongly believes we have acquired these assets economically and astutely and that they provide the foundation for an exciting future of growing revenues, adjusted EBITDA and profits.
A key element that attracted us to the independent brokerage and advisory services business is the growing base of more stable and predictable recurring revenue that this business model generates. We define recurring revenues to include advisory fees, trailing commissions, cash spread fees, sponsorship revenues and advisor affiliation fees. Recurring revenues have always been a major determinant of a company's value, but are held in even higher regard during unstable and unpredictable times. With approximately $75 billion in client assets, we are significant beneficiaries of this trend, and with the trust services offered by Premier Trust we help our advisors extend that recurring revenue over multiple generations. For 2012, approximately 66% of the revenues in our IBD business were recurring in nature and we expect this percentage to continue to grow in the future.
During 2012, our company repurchased 912,667 shares of our common stock at a cost of approximately $1.4 million, representing an average price per share of $1.54. Since the inception of our stock repurchase program in March 2007, we have repurchased 2,981,967 shares at a total cost of $4.7 million. We have the authority to repurchase an additional 4,518,033 shares under our current repurchase plan. Importantly, our Board of Directors, who are major shareholders in the firm, and the senior leadership team at Ladenburg are aligned with the interests of our investors and are focused on building increased value.
Ladenburg's Outlook
The independent brokerage and advisory services business will remain a key area of importance for our firm, and we are excited about the opportunity to build on our leadership position. Underscoring this commitment, we hosted our inaugural Women's Initiative Conference in November 2012. Our dedication to our female advisors is not merely socially enlightened, but very good business. More and more women have taken control over their investment portfolios and we seek to take advantage of a vast, underutilized reservoir of financial talent. Our firm's cache as an industry leader is also reflected in the naming of CEO Dick Lampen to Investment Advisor's Top 25 Most Influential List in April 2012, as well as being elected to the Board of Directors at the Financial Services Institute (FSI).
Looking ahead, we will continue to balance our independent brokerage and advisory efforts with selectively expanding our investment banking and capital markets business. This attractive mix of a steady and growing independent advisory business, and a smaller, but potentially highly-profitable investment banking and capital markets business is what differentiates Ladenburg and we are now operating this combination at a level that can significantly grow our revenues and adjusted EBITDA over the next few years. We also believe we can achieve additional synergies from the Securities America acquisition and our other businesses, as well as potentially take advantage of attractive refinancing opportunities.
As always, we would like to extend our gratitude to the people that have made the firm what it is today -- our clients, shareholders, advisors, and employees. We are grateful for your support, and look forward to the year ahead.
Sincerely,
Phillip Frost, M.D. Richard J. Lampen

LTS insiders still buying away!http://www.marketwatch.com/investing/stock/LTS/insideractions
lot of inside buying here on 3/20 and 3/21
http://www.marketwatch.com/investing/stock/LTS/insideractions
I would tend to agree. Just the last 1 year chart shows three spikes. I'm not so sure about $3. $2.50 seems to have been tops in the last 5 years. Last spike was about $1.60 before it slid back to $1.20. I'm thinking this has stalled for now. My opinion is that while LTS does a lot of other business, its primary purpose is to do Frost's deals. Smart guy.
LTS is on a nice roll. Considering it's history, it could roll backwards to 1.40 or less again before making a march towards 3.00 which I think it will do.
LTS stock is on a real nice roll lately! Keep on Climbing.ParkerVision Prices Common Stock Offering

Latest analyst report a mixed bag. LTS seems to go thru ups and downs. I think it may be peaking at this run; dips back to 1.40s or less depending on future quarters. May take profits and buy back later, especially if Phil Frost starts to buy. Meanwhile keep an eye on ROX which Frost is buying heavily. Very low float.
Nope, you're not the only one here. I love LTS and think it has a very bright future.
am I the only person here? Someone has been buying LTS lately...

2012-11-15 LADENBURG THALMANN
Ladenburg Thalmann Financial Services Inc. (NYSE MKT: LTS) along with its independent broker dealer subsidiaries, Investacorp, Inc., Triad Advisors, Inc. and Securities America, Inc., today announced highlights of its recently-hosted Ladenburg Institute of Women & Finance symposium, held at the Conrad Hotel in Miami on November 1-2, 2012. The full symposium agenda and a photo essay are available upon request.
Commenting on the event, Richard Lampen, President and Chief Executive Officer of Ladenburg, said "Given the significant growth within the independent brokerage and advisory channel over the past 10 years -- due to key demographic trends such as baby boomers retiring and more individuals taking control of their investment portfolios -- the need for independent, unbiased financial advice has never been greater. We are thrilled to have hosted the first-ever Ladenburg Institute of Women & Finance to spotlight opportunities for female advisors; as the market shifts away from the traditional wirehouse model, we believe that top quality independent broker-dealers are well positioned for sustainable growth, and we are focused on seeing more female advisors within the Ladenburg family."
Jaime Desmond, Chief Operating Officer of Ladenburg Thalmann Asset Management and spokeswoman for the event planning committee added, "The inaugural event celebrated some of the best and brightest women in our industry. In what is still a largely male-dominated advisory space, symposium participants shared their insights on the growth of women in finance, varying demographic shifts, consumer trends, and providing a female-friendly work environment."
Janine Wertheim, Chief Marketing Officer for Securities America, Inc. commented, "After working together with senior-level women from Investacorp, Triad Advisors, and Securities America on a thoughtful agenda for the event, we are pleased with the overwhelmingly positive feedback we have received from the attendees. Our advisors are asking for an annual in-person forum, much like this one, as well as the use of digital communications such as webinars, teleconferences, and a community discussion board in order to keep conversations and connections alive between institute meetings."
The co-chairs of the event planning committee included: Jaime Desmond of Ladenburg Thalmann Asset Management; Janine Wertheim of Securities America; Jacqueline Simkin, a member of the Ladenburg Thalmann Financial Services Board; Arielle Jaffe of Investacorp; and Marilyn Hosten, Amy Rehn and Christine Bermingham of Triad Advisors.
GROWTH OF WOMEN IN FINANCE
Alexandra Taussig, Senior Vice President of Marketing, for National Financial, noted at the symposium that while more women have been entering the field, women are still significantly under-represented in the advisory space overall.
"According to Fidelity's sixth annual Broker & Advisor Sentiment Index Study, the advisory profession continues to be male-dominated, with men representing 87 percent of respondents and women representing 13 percent," Taussig said. "But female advisors who have fewer than five years of experience have increased by 40 percent since 2010. With women projected to account for over 50 percent of the increase in total labor force growth between 2008 and 2018 according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, women may become a stronger force in the industry and the overall percentage of female advisors may grow over time."
DEMOGRAPHIC SHIFT
Ann Hughes, founder and president of The Female Affect, commented at the symposium that "Women have been hard at work acquiring significant wealth and amassing massive spending power. In fact, today approximately 70 percent of women work outside the home. Women control 72 percent of the total spending in America, which creates an affluent force to be reckoned with. The trend is gaining momentum with today's youth, as 140 women are awarded bachelor's degrees for every 100 men earning the same degree."
Emphasizing that women have unique lifestyle differences, Hughes noted that on average, women live four to six years longer than their male counterparts, and frequently find themselves supporting elderly parents while still raising children. "While women are the exact demographic that need the assistance of the financial services industry, instead of flocking to females in droves, it has been a traditionally male-dominated space," she told attendees. "At the same time, in a recent industry study, 32 percent of women left their financial advisor because they did not listen to their needs or because they did not trust them. The financial services industry cannot continue on this path - the very demographic that has the largest need, wealth and spending power is being marginalized at best and often ignored."
CONSUMER INSIGHTS
Panelists, including successful women entrepreneurs, shared their thoughts on moving toward working with an independent, fee-based advisor. Author and sports agent Molly Fletcher, labeled "the female Jerry Maguire" by CNN, echoed many of the sentiments shared by the consumer panel, noting that women advisors are in the relationship business.
Fletcher stated, "Do your clients feel like they owe you, or do you feel like you owe them? The goal is to give enough to ensure that clients do not leave. Before clients officially sign on with you, show them what is it is like to work with you. Have a sense of fearless urgency. Be intentional about how quickly or slowly you respond to things. We are all cognizant of the messages we send to clients, and it's critical to show that sense of urgency around any work we do."
PROVIDING A FEMALE-FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT
During the "Women of the Ages Panel," advisors from Triad, Investacorp and Securities America, each representing a decade of life, shared their life and work experiences. All emphasized that building relationships with their employees and strategic partners was as important as building relationships with their clients. All relished the benefits of being an entrepreneur and the support that they received from their respective broker-dealer.

Ladenburg Thalmann Financial (AMEX:LTS): Barrington Research initiated coverage of this company with a rating of Outperform and a price target of $2.25.
Ladenburg Thalmann Financial Services Inc. (LTS)
Another stock whose insiders are very active is Ladenburg Thalmann Financial Services Inc. This company, an investment bank, through its subsidiaries, provides independent brokerage and advisory services primarily to corporate and institutional clients, and high net-worth individuals in the United States.
Ladenburg Thalmann has a market cap of $233.28 Million and an enterprise value of $408.72 Million. Its trailing P/E is incalculable, and its forward P/E is just incalculable. Ladenburg's estimated growth rate for this year is 133.05%. It has a total cash position on its balance sheet of just $23.63 Million, and its total debt is at $199.07 Million.
- Adam Scott Malamed, Chief Operating Officer of Ladenburg Thalmann, has just bought 5,000 shares, or $6,600 worth of stock, at $1.32 per share.
- Richard Lampen, President and CEO of Ladenburg Thalmann, has just bought 5,000 shares, or $6,700 worth of stock, at $1.34 per share.
From a technical standpoint, this stock is currently trading below both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, which is bearish. This stock plunged from its December, 2011 high of $2.94 to a recent low in August of $1,25. After hitting that low, the stock bounced to its current price of $1.27. If you are bullish on this stock, I would look to be a buyer on the next high-volume move above some near-term overhead resistance at $1.3 a share. Look for volume that's tracking in close to or above its three-month average action of 204,455 shares.

Ladenburg Thalmann tips Mazor Robotics
The US investment house sets a target almost triple the company's current price.
Ladenburg Thalmann Financial Services (AMEX: LTS) (in which Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (Nasdaq: TEVA; TASE: TEVA) chairman Dr. Philip Frost is an investor) has initiated coverage of Mazor Robotics Ltd. (TASE:MZOR) with a target price of NIS 10.50, almost triple today's opening price of NIS 3.70.
It is very unusual for a major US investment house to cover a small-cap Israeli company that is traded only on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE), and not on Wall Street. The coverage reflects Mazor's increasingly close connections with the US capital market, and with the US market in general, after CEO Uri Hadomi moved there.
Mazor develops and markets robotic surgical navigation systems for procedures on the spine. Today, it announced the sale of its Renaissance system to the Tri-City Medical Center in San Diego, which has a spinal surgery unit. Each system cost around $500,000. The company said that when the system is installed, it will have ten of its robotic system operating in the US.
Mazor's share price rose 13.7% today to NIS 4.26, giving a market cap of NIS 95 million.
