Earnings Summary
The company presents U.S. GAAP earnings information and non-GAAP earnings information in this release. Management believes that the non-GAAP financial measures most accurately reflect the company's operating results from providing investment management and related services to individuals and institutions, and uses these measures to evaluate financial performance. Non-GAAP financial measures have material limitations and should not be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for U.S. GAAP measures. Reconciliations of the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure to each non-GAAP measure can be found on pages 9 through 13 of this earnings release.
GAAP Results
Operating income for the quarter decreased from the prior year due to lower revenues on lower average assets and declined sequentially due to higher operating expenses and flat revenues. Operating expenses increased from the first quarter due primarily to $3.8 million of collateralized loan obligation (CLO) issuance costs and restructuring and severance charges of $2.4 million associated with a staff reduction, which were partially offset by lower employment and distribution and other asset-based expenses. Operating expenses declined from the prior-year quarter, which included an $11.3 million loss contingency.
Net income attributable to common stockholders of $8.1 million, or $0.97 per diluted common share, included $0.20 per share of unrealized gains on investments, a $0.21 per share gain related to the sale of a minority interest in a subadviser, ($0.56) per share of CLO launch-related expenses, both issuance costs of the CLO as well as other costs related to the sale of the CLO notes that are reported in interest expense, and ($0.18) per share of restructuring and severance expenses.
The effective tax rate of 41 percent included a $0.6 million valuation allowance related to marketable securities and the impact of consolidated investment products.
Non-GAAP Results
Operating income, as adjusted, and the related margin decreased from the prior year on lower revenues, as adjusted, that offset slightly lower operating expenses, as adjusted, but increased from the first quarter due to higher revenue, as adjusted, due to the elimination of a negative variable incentive fee, and lower operating expenses, as adjusted. Employment expenses, as adjusted, decreased from the first quarter, which included higher payroll taxes associated with the payment of annual incentive compensation. Second quarter employment expenses, as adjusted, do not reflect any benefit associated with the staff reduction that took place late in the quarter. Other operating expenses, as adjusted, increased due to the timing of the annual equity grants to the Board of Directors of $0.6 million and $0.5 million of costs associated with discrete business development initiatives.
Net income attributable to common stockholders, as adjusted, of $1.24 per diluted common share included a partial-quarter benefit related to the reduced share count following a tender offer completed on June 8.
The effective tax rate, as adjusted, of 39 percent was relatively unchanged from prior periods.

Ending assets under management $45.2 $52.4 (14%) $45.7 (1%) $45.2 $52.4 (14%)

Net flows $(2.2) $(1.3) (60%) $(2.6) 18% $(4.8) $(3.5) (35%)
Assets under management of $45.2 billion at quarter-end declined 14 percent from June 30, 2015 and 1 percent from March 31, 2016 as net outflows offset market appreciation.
Total sales of $2.4 billion declined from both the prior-year and sequential quarters due primarily to lower sales in mutual funds, partially offset by higher sales in separately managed accounts (SMAs) and institutional. Open-end mutual fund sales reflect lower sales of the Emerging Markets Opportunities Fund. SMA sales increased from both the prior-year and sequential quarters due to sales in equity strategies managed by Kayne Anderson Rudnick Investment Management. Institutional sales increased over both prior periods and included the issuance of a CLO managed by Newfleet Asset Management, as well as small-cap equity mandates at Kayne Anderson Rudnick.
Net flows of ($2.2) billion declined from the prior-year quarter but improved 18 percent on a sequential-quarter basis. Net outflows for the quarter were primarily attributable to open-end mutual funds, while institutional, separately managed accounts and exchange traded funds each contributed positive flows. Mutual fund net outflows improved modestly from the sequential quarter due to improved net flows in domestic equity and fixed income funds. SMA net flows demonstrated the most meaningful change, improving from both periods, while institutional net flows increased due to the higher sales. Tender offers at certain of our closed-end funds were included in outflows.

For the periods ending June 30, 2016, June 30, 2015, and March 31, 2016, net assets of CSIPs represent $134.3 million, $292.2 million, and $272.5 million of total assets, $2.4 million, $19.5 million, and $20.2 million of total liabilities, and $27.1 million, $55.6 million, and $40.4 million of redeemable noncontrolling interests, respectively.
(2) Investments that are not related to the company's seed investments including mutual funds and an investment in a company managed CLO, which is a consolidated investment product. For the periods ended June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, the investment in the consolidated investment product consisted of $441.9 million and $202.7 million of total assets and $414.4 million and $162.0 million of total liabilities, respectively.

At June 30, 2016 cash and investments were $48 on a per-share basis and there was no outstanding debt. The liquidation of three open-end mutual funds reduced seed capital investments and contributed cash of $114.0 million, resulting in an increase in working capital. The completion of a $47.1 million tender offer for approximately 557,000 shares at $82.50 per share resulted in the highest quarterly level of repurchases. Over the past year, the company has repurchased 1.2 million shares and reduced its ending shares outstanding by 12.5 percent from June 30, 2015.

Notes
The following are notes to the reconciliations of the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure to each non-GAAP measure for the periods presented on pages 9 through 13.
The non-GAAP financial measures included in this release differ from financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP as a result of the reclassification of certain income statement items, as well as the adjustment of certain expenses and other items that are not reflective of the earnings generated from providing investment management and related services. Non-GAAP financial measures have material limitations and should not be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for U.S. GAAP measures.
In particular, the company reclassifies:
1. Distribution and other asset-based expenses - These costs are generally
passed directly through to external parties. Management believes that
making this adjustment aids in comparing the company's operating results
with other asset management firms that do not distribute products through
intermediary distribution partners or utilize third party service
providers for investment management related services.
2. Consolidated investment products - Management believes that excluding the
operating activities of majority-owned funds and CLOs to reflect revenues
and expenses of the company prior to the consolidation of these products
is consistent with the approach of reflecting its operating results as
only revenues generated and expenses incurred related to providing
investment management and related services will be included in operating
income, as adjusted.
Net income attributable to common stockholders, as adjusted, excludes from net income:
-- Closed-end fund launch costs - Expenses related to the launch of
closed-end funds, or similar products, including structuring fees and
sales-based compensation related to the launch. The timing of closed-end
fund issuances can be unpredictable, and related costs can fluctuate
considerably. In addition, revenue associated with these costs will not
fully impact financial results until future periods. Management believes
that making these adjustments aids in comparing the company's operating
results with prior periods and with other asset management firms that do
not issue closed-end funds, or similar products.
-- Amortization of intangible assets - Non-cash amortization expense or
impairment expense, if any, attributable to acquisition-related
intangible assets. Management believes that making this adjustment aids
in comparing the company's operating results with other asset management
firms that have not engaged in acquisitions.
-- Seed capital and CLO investments - Gains and losses (realized and
unrealized), dividends and interest income generated by seed capital and
CLO investments. Earnings or losses generated by investments in seed
capital products can vary significantly from period-to-period and do not
reflect the company's operating results from providing investment
management and related services. Management believes that making this
adjustment aids in comparing the company's operating results with prior
periods and with other asset management firms that do not have
meaningful seed capital and CLO investments.
-- Other - Certain expenses and losses related to restructuring, severance,
regulatory matters, and transition items that are not reflective of the
ongoing earnings generation of the business. In addition, income tax
expense/(benefit) items, such as adjustments for uncertain tax
positions, valuation allowances and other unusual items not related to
current operating results to reflect a normalized effective rate.
Management believes that making these adjustments aids in comparing the
company's operating results with prior periods.
Components of Other for the respective periods are shown in the table below:
