Our outstanding success continues to be broad-based across our Specialties and includes valuable contributions from our recent acquisitions.

I remain confident that 2024 will be another outstanding year for our firm as we are well positioned to deliver sustainable and differentiated profitable growth.”

First Quarter 2024 Review*

Total revenue for the first quarter of 2024 was $552.0 million, an increase of 20.6% compared to $457.6 million in the prior-year period. This increase was primarily due to continued solid Organic revenue growth of 13.7% (calculated using the revised calculation methodology adopted by the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2024), driven by new client wins and expanded relationships with existing clients, coupled with continued expansion of the E&S market, revenue from acquisitions completed within the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2024, and increased Fiduciary investment income. We experienced growth across the majority of our property and casualty lines.

Total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2024 were $479.4 million, a 23.7% increase compared to the prior-year period. This increase was primarily due to an increase in Compensation and benefits expense compared to the prior-year period resulting from higher compensation due to revenue growth and higher restructuring and related expenses associated with ACCELERATE 2025, partially offset by savings associated with ACCELERATE 2025. General and administrative expense also increased compared to the prior-year period due to an increase in professional services in connection with revenue generating activities, higher travel and entertainment expense in connection with a difference in timing of certain events, and higher acquisition-related expenses.

Net income for the first quarter of 2024 increased 11.6% to $40.7 million, compared to $36.5 million in the prior-year period. The increase was mainly due to stronger year-over-year revenue growth.

Adjusted EBITDAC grew 25.8% to $157.2 million from $125.0 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDAC margin for the quarter was 28.5%, compared to 27.3% in the prior-year period. The increase in Adjusted EBITDAC was driven primarily by solid revenue growth, partially offset by increased Adjusted compensation and benefits expense, as well as higher Adjusted general and administrative expense.

Adjusted net income for the first quarter of 2024 increased 32.9% to $95.4 million, compared to $71.8 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted net income margin was 17.3%, compared to 15.7% in the prior-year period. Adjusted diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 2024 increased 34.6% to $0.35, compared to $0.26 in the prior-year period.

* For the definition of each of the non-GAAP measures referred to above, as well as a reconciliation of such non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance Indicators” below.

Liquidity and Financial Condition

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had Cash and cash equivalents of $665.4 million and outstanding debt principal of $2.0 billion.

ACCELERATE 2025

The Company is updating the ACCELERATE 2025 restructuring program as additional opportunities have been identified to drive continued growth and innovation, deliver sustainable productivity improvements over the long term, and accelerate margin improvement. The updated program will result in approximately $110 million of cumulative one-time charges through 2024, with an expectation that the program will generate annual savings of approximately $60 million in 2025.

Quarterly Dividend

On May 2, 2024, the Company's board of directors (the "Board") declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.11 per share on the outstanding Class A common stock. The regular quarterly dividend will be payable on May 28, 2024, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 14, 2024. A portion of the dividend, $0.04 per share, will be funded by free cash flow from Ryan Specialty, LLC and will be paid to all holders of the Company's Class A common stock and the common units of Ryan Specialty, LLC.

Organic Revenue Growth Rate Calculation Methodology

In the first quarter of 2024 the Company revised its calculation methodology for the non-GAAP metric of Organic Revenue Growth Rate. Organic Revenue Growth Rate, which is now defined as the percentage change in Net commissions and fees, as compared to the same period for the prior year, adjusted to eliminate revenue attributable to acquisitions for the first twelve months of ownership, and other items such as contingent commissions and the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates. The revised calculation methodology starts from a net commissions and fees growth rate rather than total revenues and excludes contingent commissions, thereby fully removing the impact of Fiduciary investment income and contingent commissions from both the current period and base period. The legacy calculation methodology started from a total revenue growth rate and adjusted for the change in Fiduciary investment income and contingent commissions thereby leaving Fiduciary investment income and contingent commissions in the base period. We believe the revised calculation methodology is a more robust disclosure, a more widely used calculation methodology, and provides investors with a metric that is better representative of our core business performance. Organic Revenue Growth Rate is a key metric used by management and our Board to assess our financial performance and allows management and investors to evaluate business growth from existing clients.

Full Year 2024 Outlook*

The Company is maintaining its full year 2024 outlook for Organic Revenue Growth Rate (under the legacy calculation methodology) and Adjusted EBITDAC Margin. The full year 2024 outlook (under the revised Organic Revenue Growth Rate calculation methodology, as discussed above) is as follows:

  • Organic Revenue Growth Rate guidance for full year 2024 is between 12.5% – 14.0%
  • Adjusted EBITDAC Margin guidance for full year 2024 is between 31.0% – 31.5%

The Company is unable to provide a comparable outlook for, or a reconciliation to, Total revenue growth rate or Net income margin because it cannot provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of certain reconciling items without unreasonable effort. Its inability to do so is due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting the timing of items that have not yet occurred and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, including variations in effective tax rate, expenses to be incurred for acquisition activities, and other one-time or exceptional items.

* For a definition of Organic revenue growth rate, see “Organic Revenue Growth Rate Calculation Methodology” above. For a definition of Adjusted EBITDAC margin, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance Indicators” below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance Indicators

In assessing the performance of the Company’s business, non-GAAP financial measures are used that are derived from the Company’s consolidated financial information, but which are not presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company considers these non-GAAP financial measures to be useful metrics for management and investors to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period by excluding potential differences caused by variations in capital structures, tax positions, depreciation, amortization, and certain other items that the Company believes are not representative of its core business. The Company uses the following non-GAAP measures for business planning purposes, in measuring performance relative to that of its competitors, to help investors to understand the nature of the Company's growth, and to enable investors to evaluate the run-rate performance of the Company. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative or substitute for, the consolidated financial statements prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The footnotes to the reconciliation tables below should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on form 10-K filed with the SEC. Industry peers may provide similar supplemental information but may not define similarly-named metrics in the same way and may not make identical adjustments.

Organic revenue growth rate: Under our legacy calculation methodology, Organic revenue growth rate represented the percentage change in Total revenue, as compared to the same period for the year prior, adjusted for revenue attributable to recent acquisitions during the first 12 months of Ryan Specialty’s ownership, and other adjustments such as changes in contingent commissions, changes in fiduciary investment income, and the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates. Under our revised calculation methodology, Organic revenue growth rate represents the percentage change in Net commissions and fees revenue, as compared to the same period for the year prior, adjusted for Net commissions and fees attributable to recent acquisitions during the first 12 months of Ryan Specialty’s ownership, and other adjustments such as the removal of the impact of contingent commissions and the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates. For more information, see “Organic Revenue Growth Rate Calculation Methodology” above.

Adjusted compensation and benefits expense: Adjusted compensation and benefits expense is defined as Compensation and benefits expense adjusted to reflect items such as (i) equity-based compensation, (ii) acquisition and restructuring related compensation expenses, and (iii) other exceptional or non-recurring compensation expenses, as applicable. The most directly comparable GAAP financial metric is Compensation and benefits expense.

Adjusted general and administrative expense: Adjusted general and administrative expense is defined as General and administrative expense adjusted to reflect items such as (i) acquisition and restructuring related general and administrative expenses, and (ii) other exceptional or non-recurring general and administrative expenses, as applicable. The most directly comparable GAAP financial metric is General and administrative expense.

Adjusted compensation and benefits expense ratio: Adjusted compensation and benefits expense ratio is defined as the Adjusted compensation and benefits expense as a percentage of Total revenue. The most directly comparable GAAP financial metric is Compensation and benefits expense ratio.

Adjusted general and administrative expense ratio: Adjusted general and administrative expense ratio is defined as the Adjusted general and administrative expense as a percentage of Total revenue. The most directly comparable GAAP financial metric is General and administrative expense ratio.

Adjusted EBITDAC: Adjusted EBITDAC is defined as Net income before Interest expense, net, Income tax expense, Depreciation, Amortization, and Change in contingent consideration, adjusted to reflect items such as (i) equity-based compensation, (ii) acquisition-related expenses, and (iii) other exceptional or non-recurring items, as applicable. Acquisition-related expense includes one-time diligence, transaction-related, and integration costs. In 2024, Acquisition-related expense includes a $2.5 million charge related to a deal-contingent foreign exchange forward contract associated with the Castel acquisition. The remaining charges in both years represent typical one-time diligence, transaction-related, and integration costs. Acquisition-related long-term incentive compensation arises from changes to long-term incentive plans associated with acquisitions. Restructuring and related expense consists of compensation and benefits, occupancy, contractors, professional services, and license fees related to the ACCELERATE 2025 program. The compensation and benefits expense included severance as well as employment costs related to services rendered between the notification and termination dates and other termination payments. See “Note 4, Restructuring” of the unaudited quarterly consolidated financial statements for further discussion of ACCELERATE 2025. The remaining costs that preceded the restructuring plan were associated with professional services costs related to program design and licensing costs. Amortization and expense consists of charges related to discontinued prepaid incentive programs. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, Other non-operating loss (income) consisted of $1.9 million of expense related to fees associated with our term loan repricing offset by $0.1 million of sublease income. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, Other non-operating income included $0.1 million of sublease income. Equity-based compensation reflects non-cash equity-based expense. IPO related expenses include compensation-related expense primarily related to the expense for new awards issued at IPO as well as expense related to the revaluation of existing equity awards at IPO. Total revenue less Adjusted compensation and benefits expense and Adjusted general and administrative expense is equivalent to Adjusted EBITDAC. For a breakout of compensation and general and administrative costs for each addback refer to the Adjusted compensation and benefits expense and Adjusted general and administrative expense tables below. The most directly comparable GAAP financial metric to Adjusted EBITDAC is Net income.

Adjusted EBITDAC margin: Adjusted EBITDAC margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDAC as a percentage of Total revenue. The most directly comparable GAAP financial metric is Net income margin.

Adjusted net income: Adjusted net income is defined as tax-effected earnings before amortization and certain items of income and expense, gains and losses, equity-based compensation, acquisition related long-term incentive compensation, acquisition-related expenses, costs associated with our Initial Public Offering (the “IPO”), and certain exceptional or non-recurring items. The Company will be subject to United States federal income taxes, in addition to state, local, and foreign taxes, with respect to its allocable share of any net taxable income of Ryan Specialty, LLC (together with its parent New Ryan Specialty, LLC and their subsidiaries, the “LLC”). For comparability purposes, this calculation incorporates the impact of federal and state statutory tax rates on 100% of the Company's adjusted pre-tax income as if the Company owned 100% of Ryan Specialty, LLC. The most directly comparable GAAP financial metric is Net income.

Adjusted net income margin: Adjusted net income margin is defined as Adjusted net income as a percentage of Total revenue. The most directly comparable GAAP financial metric is Net income margin.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share: Adjusted diluted earnings per share is defined as Adjusted net income divided by diluted shares outstanding after adjusting for the effect if 100% of the outstanding LLC Common Units (“LLC Common Units”), together with the shares of Class B common stock, vested Class C Incentive Units, and unvested equity awards were exchanged into shares of Class A common stock as if 100% of unvested equity awards were vested. The most directly comparable GAAP financial metric is Diluted earnings per share.

The reconciliation of the above non-GAAP measures to each of their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is set forth in the reconciliation table accompanying this release.

With respect to the Organic revenue growth rate and Adjusted EBITDAC margin outlook presented in the “Full Year 2024 Outlook” section of this press release, the Company is unable to provide a comparable outlook for, or a reconciliation to, Total revenue growth rate or Net income margin because it cannot provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of certain reconciling items without unreasonable effort. Its inability to do so is due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting the timing of items that have not yet occurred and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, including variations in effective tax rate, expenses to be incurred for acquisition activities, and other one-time or exceptional items.

(3)

The Company is subject to United States federal income taxes, in addition to state, local, and foreign taxes, with respect to our allocable share of any net taxable income of the LLC. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 this calculation of adjusted tax expense is based on a federal statutory rate of 21% and a combined state income tax rate net of federal benefits of 5.12% on 100% of adjusted income before income taxes as if the Company owned 100% of the LLC. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, this calculation of adjusted tax expense is based on a federal statutory rate of 21% and a combined state income tax rate net of federal benefits of 4.53% on 100% of adjusted income before income taxes as if the Company owned 100% of the LLC.

(1)

Adjustment removes the impact of Net income attributed to dilutive awards and substantively vested RSUs to arrive at Net income attributable to Ryan Specialty Holdings, Inc. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, this removes $17.7 million and $17.4 million of Net income, respectively, on 269.9 million and 267.0 million Weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding - diluted, respectively. See “Note 10, Earnings Per Share” of the unaudited quarterly consolidated financial statements.

(2)

For comparability purposes, this calculation incorporates the Net income that would be distributable if all LLC Common Units (together with shares of Class B common stock) and vested Class C Incentive units were exchanged for shares of Class A common stock. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, this includes $24.1 million and $23.3 million of Net income, respectively, on 269.9 million and 267.0 million Weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding - diluted, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, 140.4 million weighted average outstanding LLC Common Units were considered dilutive and included in the 269.9 million Weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding - diluted within Diluted EPS. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, 143.4 million weighted-average outstanding LLC Common Units were considered dilutive and included in the 267.0 million Weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding - diluted within Diluted EPS. See “Note 10, Earnings Per Share” of the unaudited quarterly consolidated financial statements.

(3)

Adjustments to Adjusted net income are described in the footnotes of the reconciliation of Adjusted net income to Net income in “Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Margin” on 269.9 million and 267.0 million Weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding - diluted for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

(4)

For comparability purposes and to be consistent with the treatment of the adjustments to arrive at Adjusted net income, the dilutive effect of unvested equity awards is calculated using the treasury stock method as if the weighted-average unrecognized cost associated with the awards was $0 over the period, less any unvested equity awards determined to be dilutive within the Diluted EPS calculation disclosed in “Note 10, Earnings Per Share” of the unaudited quarterly consolidated financial statements. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, 4.9 million and 4.7 million shares were added to the calculation, respectively.
