FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE All amounts in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated Onex Reports Second-Quarter 08 Results Toronto, August 9, 08 Onex Corporation (TSX: ONEX) today announced its consolidated financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 08 and an update on matters following quarter-end. Year to Date Highlights We have invested and committed to invest $.8 billion in five operating companies, of which Onex portion is expected to be approximately $690 million: - SMG Holdings, a leading global manager of convention centers, stadiums, arenas, theatres, performing arts centers and other venues; - PowerSchool Group, a leading education technology platform for K- schools; - Ryan Specialty Group, a leading international specialty insurance organization, which includes a wholesale brokerage firm and an underwriting management organization; - KidsFoundation Holdings, the largest childcare provider in the Netherlands; and - Precision Global, a leading global manufacturer of dispensing solutions. We returned approximately $865 million to our limited partners, through realizations and distributions, of which Onex portion was approximately $335 million, including $ million of carried interest: - We sold Mavis Discount Tire for a gross multiple of invested capital of 3.5 times; - We completed a secondary offering for Emerald Expositions and continue to own a majority stake. Onex Partners remaining investment is valued at approximately $735 million as of yesterday s closing price, which reflects a gross multiple of invested capital of.0 times, including prior realizations; and - We completed a secondary offering for Pinnacle Holdings and continue to own a significant minority stake. ONCAP s remaining investment is valued at approximately C$65 million as of yesterday s closing price, which reflects a gross multiple of invested capital of 3.3 times, including prior realizations. Assets under management in our platform increased by approximately $700 million to $0.5 billion, primarily driven by the closing of our 5 th U.S. collateralized loan obligation for approximately $65 million.
In the first seven months of 08, 754,38 Subordinate Voting Shares ( SVS ) were repurchased for a total cost of $54 million, or an average cost per share of C$9.77. Recent Performance We re pleased with the pace of our investing activity having found five great businesses so far this year, said Gerry Schwartz, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Onex. With more than 40% of our private equity investments made in the last two years, our portfolio is still relatively immature. We believe this sets the foundation of future growth at Onex. Today, Onex has approximately $8.9 billion of uncalled capital available to deploy for new private equity investments, including $.5 billion committed by Onex. Onex management continues to share in the risks and rewards of our businesses through the team s significant investment in everything Onex owns. Today the team has approximately $. billion invested in the underlying private equity operating businesses, credit funds and Onex shares, including $00 million invested so far this year. Creating Value for Shareholders We create value for shareholders by growing both our capital per share and our fee-generating assets. For the twelve months ended June 30, 08, Onex capital per share increased by 4% to $64.59 and our private equity investments grew by 9%. Over the same period, our fee-generating assets increased by 43% to $.7 billion largely driven by our success in raising Onex Partners V. Over the last five years, Onex capital per share and our fee-generating assets grew by 8% and 8% per year, respectively. With larger private equity funds and a growing credit platform, we are well positioned to grow the profitability of our asset management business in the years to come. Onex paid a second-quarter dividend of C$0.0875 per SVS on July 3, 08 to shareholders of record on July 0, 08. Results Onex quarterly and full-year consolidated financial results do not follow any specific trends due to acquisitions and dispositions of businesses, changes in the value of its publicly traded and privately held operating companies and varying business cycles at its operating companies. On a consolidated basis for the second quarter, revenues increased by 4% to $6.4 billion compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase was largely due to the inclusion of revenues from the acquisitions of IntraPac, Laces and SMG. Net loss for the second quarter of 08 was $6 million compared to net earnings of $.7 billion in the same quarter of 07. This decrease in earnings was primarily driven by $3.3 billion of gains recognized in the second quarter of 07 from the loss of control over JELD-WEN and the sale of USI, partially offset by a decrease in the limited partners interests charge.
On a consolidated basis for the six months ended June 30, 08, revenues increased by 5% to $.5 billion as compared to the same period of the prior year. Onex reported a consolidated net loss of $46 million during the first half of 08 compared to net earnings of $.7 billion in the same period of 07. The same factors that contributed to the second-quarter increase in revenues and decrease in earnings drove the changes in revenues and earnings for the first half of 08. Prior year comparative information has been restated to conform with IFRS 5, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which was adopted by Onex retrospectively on January, 08 (refer to Note in the interim consolidated financial statements for further details).
