Partners Value Investments Inc. Announces 2021 Annual Results
April 07 2022 - 06:10PM
Partners Value Investments Inc. (the “Company”, TSX: PVF.WT)
announced today its financial results for the year ended December
31, 2021. All amounts are stated in US dollars.
The Company recorded Adjusted Earnings of $52
million for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to $53
million in the prior year. Adjusted Earnings is lower in the
current year due to a foreign currency loss of $20 million,
compared to a $7 million gain in the prior year, and higher
preferred share dividends paid, which were partially offset by an
increase in dividend income. The increased dividend income is due
to a one-time special dividend-in-kind from Brookfield, which was
valued at $46 million.
The Company generated a net loss of $1.0 billion
for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to net income of $91
million in the prior year. The decrease in net income was primarily
due to remeasurement losses of $402 million relating to the
Company’s retractable common shares and $396 million of dividends
paid on the retractable shares, which are treated as interest
expense as these shares are classified as liabilities due to their
exchangeable feature equivalent to a Partnership unit. The
remeasurement losses are the result of the value appreciation of
the Partnership unit.
The market price of a Brookfield Asset
Management Inc. (“Brookfield”) share was $60.38 per share at
December 31, 2021 (2020 – $41.27).
