Business Update5
- The Company's London office opened in the first quarter of 2011, augmenting distribution opportunities outside of the United States
- Four of the Company's five eligible mutual funds6 were in the top third of Lipper performance rankings for the five-year period ended March 31, 2011
- Six of the Company's nine mutual funds7, representing over 99% of mutual fund assets, were rated four or five stars by Morningstar, as of March 31, 2011
- Net client cash outflows were $3.2 billion for the first quarter of 2011
Management Commentary
"Our International Equity strategies saw further net outflows during the first quarter; however we are encouraged by their improving performance trend, which began in March," said Richard Pell, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer. "Ultimately flows follow performance, and we remain focused on regaining ground in these strategies, against both their benchmarks and their peers."
"The majority of our other strategies outperformed their benchmarks for the quarter, notably all four of our US equity strategies, which are approaching their five-year anniversary - an important milestone for many institutional investors. Coupled with strong long-term performance, we believe they are well positioned to attract additional assets and help diversify our revenue sources over time. Elsewhere, we continued to execute on our international distribution plans, having opened a London office in January."
First Quarter of 2011 Comparison with First Quarter of 2010
Assets Under Management and Net Client Cash Flows
Assets under management were $51.3 billion as of March 31, 2011, down $5.1 billion, or 9%, from $56.4 billion as of March 31, 2010, due to net client cash outflows, partly offset by market appreciation.
Net client cash outflows for the first quarter of 2011 were $3.2 billion, driven primarily by net client cash outflows from our International Equity I and II strategies.8
Revenues and Other Operating Income
Revenues and other operating income for the first quarter of 2011 totaled $82.2 million, down 4% from $85.6 million for the first quarter of 2010. The decrease was driven primarily by lower investment management fees, which were $81.8 million for the first quarter of 2011, down 4% from $85.3 million for the first quarter of 2010, due primarily to lower average assets under management.
Expenses
Employee Compensation and Benefits
For the first quarter of 2011, adjusted employee compensation and benefits expenses were
$25.4 million, up 15% from $22.0 million for the first quarter of 2010. The increase was due primarily to higher costs related to the amortization of deferred incentive compensation awards, accruals related to the long-term incentive plan, which was implemented in the first quarter of 2011, and higher costs due to an increase in headcount.
GAAP employee compensation and benefits expenses for the first quarter of 2011 were $28.0 million, up 11% from $25.2 million for the first quarter of 2010. The increase was due primarily to the reasons mentioned above, partly offset by a decrease in the amortization of RSUs granted at the time of the IPO, due to the vesting of certain awards in the first quarter of 2010.
Shareholder Servicing and Marketing Expenses
Shareholder servicing and marketing expenses for the first quarter of 2011 were $4.9 million, up 7% from $4.5 million for the first quarter of 2010, driven primarily by higher platform costs, partly offset by lower marketing expenses.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2011 were $10.2 million, relatively unchanged from $10.3 million for the first quarter of 2010.
Income Taxes
For the first quarter of 2011, the adjusted effective tax rate was 42.5%, 0.5 percentage points lower than the 43.0% adjusted effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2010, due primarily to a lower apportionment of income for state and local tax purposes, partly offset by the write-off of certain deferred tax assets in the first quarter of 2011.
The GAAP effective tax rate was 42.2% for the first quarter of 2011, 9.4 percentage points higher than the 32.8% GAAP effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2010, due primarily to an increase in the proportion of pre-tax income subject to federal and state taxes.9
First Quarter of 2011 Comparison with Fourth Quarter of 2010
Assets Under Management
Assets under management were $51.3 billion as of March 31, 2011, a decrease of $2.1 billion, or 4%, from $53.4 billion as of December 31, 2010, due to net client cash outflows, partly offset by market appreciation.
Revenues and Other Operating Income
Revenues and other operating income for the first quarter of 2011 totaled $82.2 million, down 4% from $85.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2010, driven primarily by lower investment management fees. Investment management fees were $81.8 million for the first quarter of 2011, down 3% from $84.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2010, due primarily to fewer days in the first quarter of 2011 and a decrease in average assets under management.
Expenses
Employee Compensation and Benefits
For the first quarter of 2011, adjusted employee compensation and benefits expenses were $25.4 million, up 17% from $21.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2010, due primarily to an increase in accruals related to incentive compensation and the long-term incentive plan, and higher costs related to the amortization of deferred incentive compensation awards.
GAAP employee compensation and benefits expenses for the first quarter of 2011 were $28.0 million, up 15% from $24.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2010, due primarily to the reasons noted above.
Shareholder Servicing and Marketing Expenses
Shareholder servicing and marketing expenses for the first quarter of 2011 were $4.9 million, a decrease of 2% from the fourth quarter of 2010.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses of $10.2 million for the first quarter of 2011 decreased 6% from $10.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2010.
Income Taxes
For the first quarter of 2011, the adjusted effective tax rate was 42.5%, 0.3 percentage points higher than the 42.2% adjusted effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2010. The increase was due primarily to the release of a previously recorded tax reserve in the fourth quarter of 2010 and the write-off of certain deferred tax assets in the first quarter of 2011, partly offset by a lower apportionment of income for state and local tax purposes in the first quarter of 2011.
The GAAP effective tax rate was 42.2% for the first quarter of 2011, 0.8 percentage points higher than the 41.4% GAAP effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2010, due primarily to the reasons noted above.
Liquidity and Capital
As of March 31, 2011, the Company had cash and cash equivalents (excluding amounts held in consolidated investment products) of $71.0 million, investments held for deferred compensation of $12.1 million and an undrawn $100.0 million committed revolving credit facility. During the first quarter of 2011, in accordance with the terms of the credit agreement, the Company repaid $4.5 million of its term debt facility, reducing the outstanding balance to $51.0 million.
Total stockholders' equity on the Statement of Financial Position was $126.7 million as of March 31, 2011, compared to $103.6 million as of December 31, 2010.
Share Repurchase
The Company has authorization to repurchase up to 3,000,000 shares of its common stock through December 31, 2013, and as of March 31, 2011, the Company had not repurchased any shares under this program.
Shares
As of March 31, 2011, the total number of shares of Class A, Class B and Class C common stock outstanding was 59,584,681.
For purposes of calculating adjusted earnings per diluted share, all 1.2 million of the Principals' New Class A Units, held in the intermediate holding company as of the beginning of the period, are assumed to have been fully exchanged into shares of Class A common stock on the first day of the period.
Dividend
On April 25, 2011, the Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.06 per share on the Class A and Class C common stock for the first quarter of 2011, which is payable on May 25, 2011, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 11, 2011.

Fund Performance and Other Disclaimers
Lipper rankings are for Class I mutual fund shares with a five-year track record only. Other classes may have different performance characteristics. Lipper, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reuters, provides independent insight on global collective investments including mutual funds, retirement funds, hedge funds, fund fees and expenses to the asset management and media communities. Lipper ranks the performance of mutual funds within a classification of funds that have similar investment objectives. Rankings are historical with capital gains and dividends reinvested and do not include the effect of loads. If an expense waiver was in effect, it may have had a material effect on the total return or yield for the period.
Morningstar rankings are for Class I mutual fund shares with a minimum three-year track record. For each mutual fund with at least a three-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar Rating? based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a fund's monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in each category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. (Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately, which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.) The Overall Morningstar Rating for a mutual fund is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five- and ten-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. This investment's independent Morningstar Rating metric is then compared against the mutual fund universe breakpoints to determine its hypothetical rating.

| Notes to Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Adjusted Consolidated Statements of Income | ||||
Management believes the Non-GAAP adjustments set forth below provide more meaningful comparisons between periods. Additional information on the reorganization of the Company's ownership structure and the relating non-recurring items are discussed in the Company's prospectus dated September 23, 2009. | ||||
| (a) | Adjustments to exclude the amortization expense associated with the restricted stock units ("RSUs") awarded at the time of the IPO, as the granting of the awards was one-time in nature. | |||
| (b) | The adjustments to income taxes for the three months ended Mar. 31, 2011 and 2010, and Dec. 31, 2010 reflect the tax effect of the assumed full exchange of the Principals' non-controlling interests for Class A common stock on the first day of the respective period, since prior to such exchange, income tax expense excludes the U.S. federal and state taxes for the income attributable to the Principals. In addition, the adjustments reflect the tax effects of excluding the amortization expense associated with the RSUs awarded at the time of the IPO. | |||
| (c) | Adjustment to eliminate the Principals' non-controlling interests which are assumed to be exchanged for Class A common stock on the first day of the respective period. | |||
| (d) | Diluted shares outstanding assumes the Principals have fully exchanged their New Class A Units in the intermediate holding company for Class A common stock in the public company. | |||

| 1. | Lipper, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reuters, provides independent insight on global collective investments including mutual funds, retirement funds, hedge funds, fund fees and expenses to the asset management and media communities. Lipper ranks the performance of mutual funds within a classification of funds that have similar investment objectives. Rankings are historical with capital gains and dividends reinvested and do not include the effect of loads. If an expense waiver was in effect, it may have had a material effect on the total return or yield for the period. | |
For each mutual fund with at least a three-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar Rating? based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a fund's monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in each category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. (Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately, which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.) The Overall Morningstar Rating for a mutual fund is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five- and ten-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. This investment's independent Morningstar Rating metric is then compared against the mutual fund universe breakpoints to determine its hypothetical rating. Data presented reflects past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. © 2011 Morningstar, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
