NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PREPARATION.
T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. derives its consolidated revenues and net income primarily from investment advisory services that its subsidiaries provide to individual and institutional investors that invest in a broad range of investment solutions across equity, fixed income, multi-asset, and alternative capabilities. We also provide certain investment advisory clients with related administrative services, including distribution, mutual fund transfer agent, accounting, and shareholder services; participant recordkeeping and transfer agent services for defined contribution retirement plans; brokerage; trust services; and non-discretionary advisory services.
The investment solutions are provided in a number of vehicles including the T. Rowe Price U.S. mutual funds ("U.S. mutual funds"), subadvised funds, separately managed accounts, collective investment trusts, exchange-traded funds, and other sponsored products. The other sponsored products include: open-ended investment products offered to investors outside the U.S., products offered through variable annuity life insurance plans in the U.S., affiliated private investment funds, business development companies, an interval fund, and collateralized loan obligations.
Investment advisory fees depend largely on the total value and composition of assets under our management. Accordingly, fluctuations in financial markets and in the composition of assets under management impact our revenues and results of operations.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These principles require the use of estimates and reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of our results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Actual results may vary from our estimates. We are reporting performance-based advisory fees in a separate line of the consolidated income statement to increase transparency. As such, investment advisory fees for prior periods were recast to reflect the new presentation and ensure comparability.
The unaudited financial information contained in these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in our 2024 Annual Report.
NEWLY ENACTED U.S. LEGISLATION.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted the U.S. The OBBBA contains significant changes and modifications to federal and international tax provisions including 100% bonus depreciation and domestic research cost expensing. We are currently evaluating the impact of the legislation on our estimated annual effective tax rate. We believe that the impact of the OBBBA’s provisions will not be material to our financial position and results of operations.
NEWLY ISSUED BUT NOT YET ADOPTED ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE.
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09 - Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires public entities, on an annual basis, to provide disclosure of specific categories in the rate reconciliation as well as disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. This amendment is effective for our 2025 annual disclosures. We do not believe the additional disclosure requirements will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2024-03 - Income Statement- Reporting Comprehensive Income- Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-4): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosures of additional information and disaggregation of certain expenses included in the income statement. The guidance is effective for the firm on January 1, 2027, and allows for either a prospective or retrospective approach on adoption. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption will have on our financial statements and have not yet determined our transition approach.
We have considered all other newly issued accounting guidance that is applicable to our operations and the preparation of our unaudited consolidated statements, including those we have not yet adopted. We do not believe that any such guidance has or will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Investors that we serve are primarily domiciled in the U.S.; investment advisory clients outside the U.S. account for 8.7% at June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025, and 8.8% at December 31, 2024 of our assets under management.
NOTE 3 – INVESTMENTS.
The carrying values of our investments that are not consolidated investment products are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| (in millions) | 6/30/2025 | | 12/31/2024 |
| | | |
| Investments held at fair value | | | |

| T. Rowe Price investment products | | | |
| Discretionary investments | 20.2 | | | 60.8 | |
| Seed capital | 59.2 | | | 128.8 | |
| Deferred compensation liabilities economic hedges | 50.5 | | | 88.4 | |
| Investment in UTI Asset Management Company Limited (India) | 177.1 | | | 173.5 | |
| Investments in affiliated private investment funds - carried interest | 371.3 | | | 426.9 | |
| Investments in affiliated private investment funds - seed/co-investment | 290.6 | | | 269.9 | |
| Investment partnerships and other investments | 171.8 | | | 162.1 | |
| Held to maturity | | | |
| Investments in affiliated collateralized loan obligations | 48.5 | | | 61.1 | |

| U.S. Treasury note | 1.0 | | | 1.0 | |
| Total | $ | 3,359.9 | | | $ | 3,000.5 | |
The investment partnerships held at fair value are valued using net asset value (“NAV”) per share as a practical expedient. Our interests in these partnerships are generally not redeemable and are subject to significant transferability restrictions. The underlying investments of these partnerships have contractual terms through 2029, though we may receive distributions of liquidating assets over a longer term. The investment strategies of these partnerships include growth equity, buyout, venture capital, and real estate.
During the three- and six- months ended June 30, 2025, net gains on investments included $112.4 million and $85.1 million, respectively, of net unrealized gains related to investments carried at fair value that were still held at June 30, 2025. For the same periods of 2024, net gains on investments included $20.0 million and $85.0 million, respectively, of net unrealized gains related to investments carried at fair value that were still held at June 30, 2024.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, certain T. Rowe Price investment products in which we provided initial seed capital at the time of formation were deconsolidated, as we no longer had a controlling interest. Depending on our ownership interest, we report our residual interests in these T. Rowe Price investment products as either an equity method investment or an investment held at fair value. The net impact on our unaudited consolidated balance sheets and statements of income as of the dates the products were deconsolidated is detailed below.

| | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES.
Our fair value and equity method investments at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 include interests in variable interest entities that we do not consolidate as we are not deemed the primary beneficiary. Our maximum risk of loss related to our involvement with these entities is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| (in millions) | 6/30/2025 | | 12/31/2024 |
| Investment carrying values | $ | 949.8 | | | $ | 955.9 | |
| Unfunded capital commitments | 203.0 | | | 202.5 | |
| Accounts receivable | 105.6 | | | 96.2 | |
| $ | 1,258.4 | | | $ | 1,254.6 | |
We have unfunded capital commitments, totaling $203.0 million at June 30, 2025 and $202.5 million at December 31, 2024, related primarily to the affiliated private investment funds and the investment partnerships in which we have an existing investment. In addition to such amounts, a percentage of prior distributions may be called under certain circumstances.
Investments in affiliated private investment funds - carried interest represent interests in the general partners of affiliated private investment funds that are entitled to a disproportionate allocation of income, also known as carried interest. The entities that hold these interests (“carried interest entities”) are considered variable interest entities and are consolidated as T. Rowe Price is determined to be the primary beneficiary. The total assets, liabilities and non-controlling interests of these carried interest entities as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| (in millions) | | 6/30/2025 | | 12/31/2024 |
| Assets | | $ | 414.0 | | | $ | 467.7 | |
| Liabilities | | $ | 0.7 | | | $ | 0.4 | |
| Non-controlling interest | | $ | 153.3 | | | $ | 160.7 | |
INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATED COLLATERALIZED LOAN OBLIGATIONS.
There is debt associated with our investments in affiliated collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”). The debt relates to outstanding repurchase agreements of €39.4 million at June 30, 2025 and €56.9 million at December 31, 2024 (equivalent to $46.4 million at June 30, 2025 and $59.1 million at December 31, 2024 at the respective EUR spot rates) that are collateralized by the CLO investments and reported in accounts payable and accrued expenses in our consolidated balance sheets. These repurchase agreements bear interest at rates based on EURIBOR plus the initial margin, which equals all-in rates ranging from 1.15% to 11.11% as of June 30, 2025. The debt matures on various dates through 2035 or if the investments are paid back in full or cancelled, whichever is sooner.
NOTE 4 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS.
We determine the fair value of our cash equivalents and certain investments held at fair value using the following broad levels of inputs as defined by related accounting standards:
Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical financial instruments accessible at the reporting date.
Level 2 – observable inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar financial instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar financial instruments in inactive markets, interest rates and yield curves, implied volatilities, and credit spreads. These inputs are based on market data obtained from independent sources.
Level 3 – unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions based on the best information available. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. Investments in this category generally include investments for which there is not an actively-traded market. There are no Level 3 investments at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
These levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with our investments. The following table summarizes our investments and liabilities that are recognized in our unaudited consolidated balance sheets using fair value measurements determined based on the differing levels of inputs. This table excludes investments held by the consolidated investment products which are presented separately in our unaudited consolidated balance sheets and are detailed in Note 5.

| | | | | | | | | | | |
The fair value hierarchy level table above does not include the investment partnerships and other investments for which fair value is estimated using their NAV per share as a practical expedient or using the measurement alternative. The carrying value of these investments as disclosed in Note 3 were $77.7 million at June 30, 2025, and $62.5 million at December 31, 2024.
NOTE 5 – CONSOLIDATED INVESTMENT PRODUCTS.
The investment products that we consolidate in our consolidated financial statements are generally those products we provided initial seed capital at the time of their formation and have a controlling interest. Our U.S. mutual funds and certain other products are considered voting interest entities, while those regulated outside the U.S. are considered variable interest entities.
The following table details the net assets of the consolidated investment products:

(2) Investments include $15.4 million at June 30, 2025, and $9.3 million at December 31, 2024, of other T. Rowe Price investment products.
Although we can generally redeem our net interest in the consolidated investment products at any time, we cannot directly access or sell the assets held by these products to obtain cash for general operations. Additionally, the assets of these investment products are not available to our general creditors.
Since third-party investors in these investment products have no recourse to our credit, our overall risk related to the net assets of consolidated investment products is limited to valuation changes associated with our net interest. However, we are required to recognize the valuation changes associated with all underlying investments held by these products in our consolidated statements of income and disclose the portion attributable to unrelated third-party investors as net income attributable to redeemable non-controlling interests.
The operating results of the consolidated investment products for the three- and six- months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, are reflected in our unaudited consolidated statements of income as follows:

The operating expenses of the consolidated investment products are reflected in general, administrative and other expenses. In preparing our unaudited consolidated financial statements, we eliminated operating expenses of $1.4 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, against the investment advisory and administrative fees earned from these products. Operating expenses eliminated for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, were $2.8 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The net investment income (loss) reflected in non-operating income (loss) includes dividend and interest income as well as realized and unrealized gains and losses on the underlying securities held by the consolidated investment products.
The table below details the impact of these consolidated investment products on the individual lines of our unaudited consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the net cash provided by (used in) financing activities includes $111.6 million of net subscriptions we made into the consolidated investment products, net of dividends received. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the net cash provided by (used in) financing activities included $16.4 million of net redemptions we made from the consolidated investment products, net of dividends received. These cash flows were eliminated in consolidation.
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS.
We determine the fair value of investments held by consolidated investment products using the following broad levels of inputs as defined by related accounting standards:
Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical financial instruments accessible at the reporting date.
Level 2 – observable inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar financial instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar financial instruments in inactive markets, interest rates and yield curves, implied volatilities, and credit spreads. These inputs are based on market data obtained from independent sources.
Level 3 – unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions based on the best information available. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. Investments in this category generally include investments for which there is not an actively-traded market. There are no Level 3 investments at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
These levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with these investment holdings. The following table summarizes the investment holdings held by our consolidated investment products using fair value measurements determined based on the differing levels of inputs.

| Total | $ | 2,959.7 | | | $ | 3,010.9 | |
Amortization and impairment expense for the definite-lived intangible assets was $23.5 million and $47.9 million for the three- and six- months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. For the three- and six- months ended June 30, 2024, amortization and impairment expense for the definite-lived intangible assets was $27.2 million and $52.7 million, respectively. Estimated amortization expense for the definite-lived intangible assets for the five succeeding years is as follows:

| (in millions) | |
Remaining 2025 | $ | 41.4 | |
| 2026 | 55.9 | |
| 2027 | 39.1 | |

| 2029 | 8.8 | |
We evaluate the carrying amount of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for possible impairment on an annual basis in the fourth quarter or if triggering events occur that require us to evaluate for impairment earlier. No triggering event occurred for goodwill in 2025, while we recorded an immaterial impairment related to the indefinite-lived investment advisory agreement intangible asset for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

NOTE 10 – SEGMENT REPORTING.
We have one reportable segment: investment management services. We derive our revenue and net income globally and manage business activities on a consolidated basis.
We derive our revenues and net income from investment advisory services provided to individual and institutional investors. We also provide certain ancillary administrative services, including mutual fund transfer agent, fund and portfolio accounting, distribution, and shareholder services; participant recordkeeping and transfer agent services for defined contribution retirement plans; and other advisory services. Our revenues and net income depend largely on the total value and composition of our assets under management, as such, the consideration for our services is generally variable and recognized over time.
Our chief operating decision maker (CODM) is the chief executive officer. The CODM utilizes consolidated net income attributable to T. Rowe Price as reported on the consolidated income statement and certain non-GAAP metrics to assess performance and allocate resources. Based on these metrics, the CODM decides either to reinvest profits into the business based on our strategic priorities and/or return cash to stockholders through dividends and share repurchases.
We determined there are no significant segment expenses that require a separate disclosure, as the major categories of expenses regularly reviewed by the CODM to manage operations are disclosed in the consolidated statements of income. Quarterly reviews of expenses highlight those influenced by financial markets, such as distribution and servicing costs, as well as those that are both qualitatively and quantitatively significant. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total consolidated assets.
NOTE 11 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES.
COMMITMENTS.
T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. has committed $330 million for investment in future OHA product launches through 2026.
CONTINGENCIES.
Contingent Consideration
As part of the purchase consideration for our acquisition of OHA in December 2021, there is contingent
consideration in the amount of up to $900 million, payable in cash, that may be due as part of an earnout payment in 2026 and 2027 upon satisfying or exceeding certain defined revenue targets. These defined revenue targets will be evaluated on a cumulative basis from 2022 through 2026. About 22% of the earnout is conditioned upon continued service with T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. and was excluded from the purchase consideration and deemed compensatory. The fair value of the earnout is remeasured each reporting period and was valued at zero as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Other
Various claims against us arise in the ordinary course of business, including employment-related claims. In the opinion of management, after consultation with counsel, the likelihood of an adverse determination in one or more of these pending ordinary course of business claims that would have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations is remote.

T. Rowe Price Group, Inc.:
Results of Review of Interim Financial Information
We have reviewed the consolidated balance sheet of T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of June 30, 2025, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, and stockholders’ equity for the three-month and six- month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated interim financial information). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated interim financial information for it to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2024, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 14, 2025, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.
Basis for Review Results
This consolidated interim financial information is the responsibility of the Company’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of consolidated interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
OVERVIEW.
Our revenues and net income are derived primarily from investment advisory services provided globally to individual and institutional investors in a broad range of investment solutions across equity, fixed income, multi-asset, and alternatives capabilities. We also provide certain investment advisory clients with related administrative services, including distribution, mutual fund transfer agent, accounting, and shareholder services; participant recordkeeping and transfer agent services for defined contribution retirement plans; brokerage; trust services; and non-discretionary advisory services.
Investment advisory fees depend largely on the total value and composition of assets under our management. Accordingly, fluctuations in financial markets and in the composition of assets under management affect our revenues and results of operations.
We incur significant expenditures to develop new products and services and improve and expand our capabilities and distribution channels in order to attract new clients and additional investments from our existing clients. These efforts often involve costs that precede any future revenues we may recognize from an increase to our assets under management.
The investment management industry is evolving, facing challenging trends such as passive investments taking market share from traditional active strategies; continued downward fee pressure; demand for new investment vehicles to meet client needs; and an ever-changing regulatory landscape. In this regard, we have ample liquidity and resources that allow us to take advantage of attractive growth opportunities. Furthermore, we have developed a broad and ongoing plan to align our expense growth with anticipated revenue growth. As a result, we have initiated certain actions to reduce expense growth, realign resources, and invest in existing and future capabilities, while also helping to offset ongoing inflationary pressures on compensation and contractual spending. These investments include hiring investment professionals, distribution professionals, adopting new technologies, and offering new products to provide our clients with strong investment management expertise and services.
MARKET TRENDS.
Major U.S. stock market indexes rose in the second quarter. Equities plunged at the beginning of April in response to the U.S. reciprocal tariffs. However, the market rallied starting April 9, when the U.S. declared a 90-day pause on these tariffs for many countries. Equities continued to rise throughout May and June, as the U.S. and China agreed to a 90-day reduction in reciprocal and retaliatory tariffs while negotiating a trade deal. Stocks also overcame a short-lived spike in oil prices in June and a multi-day exchange of missile and drone attacks between Israel and Iran. As the quarter ended, investors were optimistic that trade deals with U.S. trading partners would be announced soon and hopeful that the Federal Reserve would resume lowering interest rates at some point in the months ahead.
Developed non-U.S. equity markets outperformed U.S. shares in U.S. dollar terms. In Europe, equity markets were broadly positive, helped in part by short-term interest rate cuts. UK shares lagged. Developed Asian markets were also broadly positive in dollar terms, with Japanese stocks gaining more than 11%.
Stocks in emerging markets also outperformed U.S. stocks in U.S. dollar terms. In the emerging Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region, markets were broadly positive in dollar terms, though stocks in Türkiye (Turkey) lagged with a 3% gain. In emerging Asia, markets were also broadly positive in dollar terms. Equities in South Korea and Taiwan far outperformed the region, while Chinese stocks trailed with modest gains. In Latin America, markets were mostly positive in dollar terms.
Returns of several major equity market indexes were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three months ended | | Six months ended |
| Index | | 6/30/2025 | | 6/30/2025 |
| S&P 500 Index | | 10.9% | | 6.2% |

| MSCI Emerging Markets Index | | 12.2% | | 15.6% |
(1) Returns exclude dividends
Global bond returns were mostly positive in the second quarter of 2025. In the U.S., Treasury bill yields were little changed, as the Federal Reserve kept the federal funds target rate in the 4.25% to 4.50% range. Intermediate-term U.S. Treasury yields generally declined, but the 10-year U.S. Treasury note yield increased from 4.23% to 4.24%. The 30-year U.S. Treasury bond yield increased to a greater degree amid concerns about U.S. debts and budget deficits, and as Moody’s downgraded U.S. sovereign debt from AAA to AA1 in May.
In the investment-grade universe, sector performance was broadly positive. Non-agency commercial mortgage-backed securities and corporate bonds performed best, while asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities produced milder gains. Treasuries lagged. Tax-free municipal bonds trailed the broad taxable bond market, but high yield corporate bonds produced strong gains and outperformed investment-grade bonds.
Bonds in developed non-U.S. markets produced positive returns in U.S. dollar terms in the second quarter, as major non-U.S. currencies appreciated versus the U.S. dollar. In the eurozone, longer-term bond yields declined in many countries, as the European Central Bank (ECB) reduced its benchmark interest rates twice in the second quarter. In the UK, longer-term bond yields also decreased, as the Bank of England reduced its benchmark interest rate, the Bank Rate, from 4.50% to 4.25% in May. The euro rose more than 8% versus the U.S. dollar, while the British pound rose about 6%. In Japan, long-term government bond yields were little changed, as the Bank of Japan kept its benchmark interest rate at 0.50%. The yen rose about 3.5% versus the U.S. dollar. Emerging markets bonds produced positive returns in U.S. dollar terms. Bonds denominated in local currencies strongly outperformed dollar-denominated bonds in U.S. dollar terms, as most developing markets currencies appreciated versus the dollar.

ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT.
Assets under management ended the second quarter of 2025 at $1,676.8 billion, an increase of $110.5 billion from March 31, 2025. The increase in assets under management during the second quarter of 2025 was driven by market appreciation and income, net of distributions not reinvested, of $125.4 billion, offset by net cash outflows of $14.9 billion.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the increase in assets under management was driven by market appreciation, net of distributions not reinvested, of $93.7 billion, offset by net cash outflows of $23.5 billion.
The following tables detail changes in our assets under management, by asset class, during the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025:

Results Overview - Quarter ended June 30, 2025
Net revenues consist of investment advisory revenues; performance-based advisory fees; administrative, distribution, services, and other fees; and capital allocation-based income. More than 90% of our net revenues are related to investment advisory fees. Total net revenues were $1,723.3 million in the second quarter of 2025, a 0.6% decrease compared to $1,733.3 million in the 2024 quarter. The decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in performance-based advisory fees.
Investment advisory fees are generally earned based on the value and composition of our assets under management, which change based on fluctuations in financial markets and net cash flows. As our average assets under management increase or decrease in a given period, the level of our investment advisory fee revenue for that same period generally fluctuates in a similar manner. Our annualized effective fee rates can be impacted by market or cash flow related shifts among asset classes and products, including those with tiered-fee structures, along with price changes we make in existing products.
Capital allocation-based income will fluctuate quarter-to-quarter to reflect the adjustment to accrued carried interest for the change in value of certain affiliated funds assuming the funds’ underlying investments were realized as of the end of the period.
Operating expenses on a U.S. GAAP basis were $1,245.0 million in the second quarter of 2025, a 6.5% increase over the comparable 2024 period. On a non-GAAP basis, operating expenses were $1,147.2 million, a 3.7% increase over the comparable 2024 period.
Compared to the second quarter of 2024, over 65% of the increase in U.S. GAAP operating expenses was due to increases in deferred compensation liabilities from higher markets. Additionally, higher compensation and related benefits, as well as increased technology, occupancy, and facilities costs, contributed to the rise in U.S. GAAP operating expenses and were the main drivers of the increase in non-GAAP operating expenses over the 2024 quarter. As mentioned earlier, we exclude the market-related impacts on deferred compensation liabilities from our non-GAAP operating expenses measures because these liabilities are economically hedged.
Operating margin in the second quarter of 2025 was 27.8% on a U.S. GAAP basis, compared to 32.6% earned in the second quarter of 2024. The decrease was driven by operating expense growth outpacing net revenue growth primarily due to higher market-related increases in deferred compensation liabilities.
Diluted earnings per share was $2.24 for the second quarter of 2025 compared to $2.11 for the second quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily driven by higher investment gains partially offset by lower operating income compared to the 2024 period. A lower effective tax rate and fewer weighted average shares outstanding also contributed to the increase.
On a non-GAAP basis, diluted earnings per share was $2.24 for the second quarter of 2025 as compared to $2.26 for the second quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower adjusted operating income partially offset by a lower adjusted tax rate and higher adjusted investment gains compared to the 2024 period.
Results Overview - Year-to-Date ended June 30, 2025
Net revenues consist of investment advisory revenues; performance-based advisory fees; administrative, distribution, services, and other fees; and capital allocation-based income. More than 90% of our net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2025 are related to investment advisory fees. Total net revenues were $3,487.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025, a 0.1% increase over $3,483.5 million in the 2024 period. The increase was primarily driven by a 2.0% increase in investment advisory fee revenue as average assets under management increased by 6.3% and a $9.3 million increase in non-advisory revenues, partially offset by a $48.8 million decrease in capital allocation-based income (change in accrued carried interest) earned from investments in certain affiliated funds and a $17.6 million decrease in performance-based advisory fees.
Operating expenses were $2,412.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared with $2,332.2 million in the 2024 period. On a non-GAAP basis, our operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025, increased 4.8% to $2,282.3 million compared to the 2024 period.
Compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024, the increase in U.S. GAAP and non-GAAP operating expenses was mainly due to higher technology and facility costs, compensation and related benefits costs, distribution and servicing costs, and general, administrative and other costs.
Operating margin in the six months ended June 30, 2025 was 30.8% on a U.S. GAAP basis, compared to 33.1% earned in the 2024 period. The decrease was primarily driven by operating expense growth outpacing net revenue growth.
Diluted earnings per share was $4.38 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $4.60 for 2024 period. On a non-GAAP basis, adjusted diluted earnings per share was $4.47 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $4.64 for the 2024 period. The decreases were primarily due to lower operating income partially offset by higher investment gains.

(2) 2024 performance-based advisory fees are reported separately from investment advisory fees to align with the 2025 presentation.
Investment advisory fees in the second quarter of 2025 decreased 0.1% over the comparable 2024 quarter while average assets under management increased $54.8 billion, or 3.6%, to $1,588.8 billion. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, investment advisory revenues increased 2.0% over the comparable 2024 period as average assets under management increased $95.3 billion, or 6.3%, to $1,604.5 billion.
The average annualized effective fee rate earned for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 declined from the comparable 2024 periods as market movements and client flows and transfers shifted assets under management toward lower-fee asset classes and products.
Performance-based advisory fees in the second quarter of 2025 and 2024 were earned primarily from alternative strategies, and from equity and alternative strategies for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
Capital allocation-based income includes the change in accrued carried interest along with acquisition-related amortization and impairments. In the second quarter of 2025, the change in accrued carried interest increased net revenues by $36.5 million compared to $27.0 million in the 2024 period. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the change in accrued carried interest decreased net revenues by $45.7 million compared to $86.5 million for the 2024 period. The change in accrued carried interest for both the second quarter and six month periods compared to the 2024 periods was due to relative market impacts and performance.
A portion of the capital allocation-based income is passed through to certain associates as compensation and the related expense recognized in compensation and related costs with the unpaid amount reported as non-controlling interest on the unaudited consolidated balance sheets.
Administrative, distribution, services, and other fees in the second quarter of 2025 were $149.7 million, an increase of $2.1 million, or 1.4%, from the comparable 2024 quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, these fees were $306.0 million, an increase of $9.3 million, or 3.1%, from the 2024 period. The increases for both periods were primarily due to higher average assets on which we earn revenue for non-discretionary advisory services and higher recordkeeping fees. For the second quarter of 2025, these increases were partially offset by the timing of costs to be reimbursed by the firm's U.S. mutual funds compared to the 2024 period. The offsetting expense is recognized in product and recordkeeping related costs.
Our net revenues reflect the elimination of advisory and administrative fee revenue earned from our consolidated
investment products. The corresponding expenses recognized by these products, and consolidated in our financial statements, were also eliminated from operating expenses. For the second quarter, we eliminated net revenue of $1.4 million in 2025 and $0.5 million in 2024. For the six months ended June 30, we eliminated net revenue of $2.8 million in 2025 and $1.7 million in 2024.

Compensation, benefits, and related costs were $648.8 million in the second quarter of 2025, an increase of $13.0 million, or 2.0%, compared to the 2024 quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, these costs were $1,306.7 million, an increase of $41.6 million, or 3.3%, compared to the 2024 period. The increases in both periods were primarily due to higher salaries and related benefits, as base salaries modestly increased in January 2024 and we saw higher healthcare costs, and higher stock-based compensation. These increases were partially offset by lower other employee related costs compared to the 2024 periods. For the second quarter of 2025, a lower bonus accrual also partially offset the increase compared to the 2024 period.
The firm employed 8,063 associates at June 30, 2025, a decrease of 0.3% from 8,084 associates at March 31, 2025, a decrease of 1.2% from the end of 2024, and an increase of 1.7% from June 30, 2024.
Distribution and servicing costs were $92.5 million for the second quarter of 2025, an increase of $4.8 million, or 5.5%, from $87.7 million recognized in the 2024 quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, these costs were $186.1 million, an increase of $16.5 million, or 9.7%, from $169.6 million recognized in the comparable 2024 period. The increases in both periods were primarily driven by higher average assets under management distributed through intermediaries.
The costs in this expense category include amounts paid to third-party intermediaries that source the assets of certain share classes of our U.S. mutual funds, ETFs, and our international products, such as our Japanese ITMs and SICAVs. These costs are offset entirely by the distribution revenue we earn and report in net revenues: 12b-1 revenue is recognized in administrative, distribution, services, and other fees for the Advisor and R share classes of the U.S. mutual funds and investment advisory fee revenue for our international products and ETFs.
Product and recordkeeping related costs were $74.8 million in the second quarter of 2025, an increase of $1.8 million, or 2.5%, compared to $73.0 million in the 2024 quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, these costs were $158.6 million, an increase of $10.6 million, or 7.2%, from $148.0 million recognized in the comparable 2024 period. The increases in both periods were primarily due to higher custody fees related to our trust products and recordkeeping fees.
Technology, occupancy, and facility costs were $179.4 million in the second quarter of 2025, an increase of $18.5 million, or 11.5%, compared to the $160.9 million recognized in the 2024 quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, these costs were $347.0 million, an increase of $36.2 million, or 11.6%, compared with the 2024 period. The increases in both periods were primarily due to higher technology costs, including hosted solutions and depreciation. Also contributing to the increase was higher occupancy and facility costs related to the firm’s new corporate headquarters, which was occupied in March 2025, and a non-recurring cost benefit related to the firm's UK facility in the first quarter of 2024.
General, administrative, and other expenses were $109.5 million in the second quarter of 2025, an increase of $0.8 million, or 0.7%, compared to the $108.7 million recognized in the 2024 quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, these costs were $212.8 million, an increase of $11.5 million, or 5.7%, compared with the 2024 period. The increases in both periods were primarily due to higher professional fees and information services partially offset by lower external research fees.
Acquisition-related amortization and impairment costs primarily relate to the indefinite- and definite-lived intangible assets identified and separately recognized, at fair value, on acquisition date. For the second quarter of 2025, we recognized $31.2 million in amortization and impairments related to the definite and indefinite-lived intangible assets, compared to $43.9 million in the 2024 quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized $59.9 million in amortization and impairments related to the definite and indefinite-lived intangible assets, compared to $73.8 million, in the 2024 period. The 2024 periods include impairments charges totaling $18.0 million on definite and indefinite-lived intangible assets. The decreases in both periods were primarily driven by lower impairment charges related to certain indefinite-lived intangible assets. If conditions that led us to recognize impairment charges worsen, additional impairments may be recognized in future periods.
Non-operating income (loss)
Non-operating income for the second quarter of 2025 was $235.5 million compared to $80.3 million in the 2024 quarter. The following table details the components of non-operating income for both the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

Higher investment gains earned by our investment portfolio during the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 compared to the 2024 periods were primarily due to higher cash and investment holdings coupled with stronger overall market returns.
The table above shows the net investment income of the underlying portfolios of the consolidated investment products, not just the income from our ownership share.

Provision for income taxes
The GAAP effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2025 was 22.1% compared with 24.8% in the second quarter of 2024. These quarterly rates were the result of an overall year-to-date rate of 23.1% for 2025 and 24.1% for 2024. The following table reconciles the statutory federal income tax rate to our effective tax rate on a U.S. GAAP basis for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | Six months ended |
| | | | | 6/30/2025 | | 6/30/2024 |
| Statutory U.S. federal income tax rate | | | | | 21.0 | % | | 21.0 | % |
| | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
State income taxes for current year, net of federal income tax benefits(1) | | | | | 2.7 | | | 2.7 | |
Net (income) losses attributable to redeemable non-controlling interests(2) | | | | | (0.8) | | | (0.4) | |
| Net excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation plans activity | | | | | (0.2) | | | (0.3) | |
| Valuation allowances | | | | | (0.2) | | | 0.5 | |
| Other items | | | | | 0.6 | | | 0.6 | |
| Effective income tax rate | | | | | 23.1 | % | | 24.1 | % |
| | | | | | | |
| Adjusted effective tax rate | | | | | 24.0 | % | | 24.3 | % |
(1) State income tax benefits are reflected in the total benefits for net income attributable to redeemable non-controlling interests and stock-based compensation plans activity.
(2) Net income attributable to redeemable non-controlling interests represents the portion of earnings held in the firm's consolidated investment products, which are not taxable to the firm despite being included in pre-tax income.
The adjusted effective tax rate primarily adjusts for the impact of the consolidated investment products, including the net income attributable to the redeemable non-controlling interests. The decrease in the year-to-date 2025 U.S. GAAP and adjusted effective tax rates compared to 2024 was primarily due to the reversal of a valuation allowance related to U.S. foreign tax credit carryovers.
We currently estimate that our effective tax rate for the full year 2025, on a U.S. GAAP basis, will be in the range of 23.5% to 27.5%. On an adjusted basis, the range is 24.0% to 27.0%.
Our effective tax rate will continue to experience volatility in future periods due to tax benefits recognized from stock-based compensation being influenced by market fluctuations in our stock price, and changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances, primarily in foreign jurisdictions, being impacted by the sufficiency of taxable income in future periods. Our U.S. GAAP rate will also be impacted by changes in the proportion of net income that is attributable to our redeemable non-controlling interests and non-controlling interests reflected in permanent equity.
NON-GAAP INFORMATION AND RECONCILIATION.
We believe the non-GAAP financial measures below provide relevant and meaningful information to investors about our core operating results. These measures have been established in order to increase transparency for the purpose of evaluating our core business, for comparing current results with prior period results, and to enable more appropriate comparison with industry peers. However, non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be calculated differently by other companies.
The following schedules reconcile certain U.S. GAAP financial measures to Non-GAAP financial measures for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

(1) These non-GAAP adjustments remove the impact of acquisition-related amortization of intangible assets, the recurring fair value remeasurements of the contingent consideration liability, if any, amortization of acquired investment and non-controlling interest basis differences and amortization of compensation-related arrangements. We believe adjusting for these charges helps the reader's ability to understand our core operating results and increases comparability period to period.
(2) This non-GAAP adjustment eliminates the compensation expense impact from market valuation changes in deferred compensation liabilities, including the supplemental savings plan and, starting in the fourth quarter of 2024, restricted fund units, and the related net gains (losses) on investments used as economic hedges against the related liabilities. The liabilities are adjusted based on the performance of hypothetical investments selected by participants. We use investment products to economically hedge the market risk associated with the supplemental savings plan liability and the expected settlement value of unvested restricted fund units. We believe it is useful to offset the non-operating investment income
(loss) of the hedges against the related compensation expense and remove the net impact to help the reader's ability to understand the firm's core operating results and to increase comparability period to period.
(3) This non-GAAP adjustment removes the impact of the consolidated investment products by adding back their operating expenses and subtracting their investment income. The operating expense adjustment represents their operating expenses net of related investment advisory and administrative fees. The adjustment to net income attributable to T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. represents the consolidated investment products' net income, net of redeemable non-controlling interests. We believe this adjustment helps the reader’s ability to understand our core operating results and increases comparability period to period.
(4) This non-GAAP adjustment removes non-operating income (loss) earned on those investments that are not economic hedges for the deferred compensation liabilities and are not part of the cash and discretionary investment portfolio. We retain gains from cash and discretionary investments in our non-GAAP measures, as they are considered part of our core operations. We believe adjusting for the remaining non-operating income (loss) helps the reader’s ability to understand the firm's core operating results and increases comparability period to period. Additionally, we do not emphasize this portion of non-operating income (loss) when assessing the firm's performance.
(5) The income tax impacts were calculated in order to achieve an overall year-to-date non-GAAP effective tax rate of 24.0% in 2025 and 24.3% in 2024. As such, the non-GAAP effective tax rate for the second quarter was 23.4% in 2025 and 24.6% in 2024.
(6) This non-GAAP measure was calculated by applying the two-class method to adjusted net income attributable to T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. divided by the weighted-average common shares outstanding assuming dilution. The calculation of adjusted net income allocated to common stockholders is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

| Less: adjusted net income allocated to outstanding restricted stock and stock unit holders | 12.5 | | 13.9 | | | 25.4 | | 29.1 | |
| Adjusted net income allocated to common stockholders | $ | 494.3 | | $ | 505.8 | | | $ | 990.7 | | $ | 1,039.1 | |
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY.
Sources of Liquidity
We have ample liquidity, including cash and investments in T. Rowe Price products, as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| (in millions) | 6/30/2025 | | 12/31/2024 |
| Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 3,058.9 | | | $ | 2,649.8 | |
| Discretionary investments | 749.6 | | | 457.1 | |
| Total cash and discretionary investments | 3,808.5 | | | 3,106.9 | |
| Redeemable seed capital investments | 1,101.2 | | | 1,262.3 | |
| Investments used to hedge the deferred compensation liabilities | 1,123.7 | | | 1,110.9 | |
| Total cash and investments in T. Rowe Price products | $ | 6,033.4 | | | $ | 5,480.1 | |
Our discretionary investment portfolio is primarily comprised of short duration bond funds, which typically yield higher than money market rates. Our subsidiaries outside the United States held cash and discretionary investments of $741.7 million at June 30, 2025 and $653.9 million at December 31, 2024. Given the availability of our financial resources and cash expected to be generated through future operations, we do not maintain an available external source of additional liquidity.
Our seed capital investments are redeemable, although we generally expect to be invested for several years for the products to build an investment performance history and until unrelated third-party investors substantially reduce our relative ownership percentage.
The cash and investment presentation on the unaudited consolidated balance sheet is based on the accounting treatment for the cash equivalent or investment item. The following table details how T. Rowe Price Group, Inc.’s interests in cash and investments relate to where they are presented on the unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2025.

As reported on unaudited consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2025 | $ | 3,058.9 | | | $ | 3,359.9 | | | $ | 1,907.5 | | | $ | 8,326.3 | |
(1) The consolidated investment products are generally those products we provided seed capital at the time of their formation and we have a controlling interest. These products generally represent U.S. mutual funds, ETFs, and funds regulated outside the U.S. The $808.4 million represents the total value at June 30, 2025 of our interest in the consolidated investment products. The total net assets of the T. Rowe Price investment products at June 30, 2025 of $1,907.5 million includes assets of $1,989.0 million, less liabilities of $81.5 million as reflected in our unaudited consolidated balance sheets.
(2) Includes $153.3 million of non-controlling interests in consolidated entities held by related parties, and we cannot sell in order to obtain cash for general operations.
Our unaudited consolidated balance sheet includes the cash, investments, and other assets and liabilities of our consolidated investment products, which includes any redeemable non-controlling interests held by third-party investors. While we can redeem our net interest in these investment products at any time, we cannot directly access or sell their assets for general operations, and their assets are not available to our general creditors. Our interest typically serves as initial seed capital and is reclassified as discretionary when management decides the seed capital is no longer needed. We evaluate these discretionary investment products and aim to liquidate our interest without affecting the product or unrelated third-party investors.
Uses of Liquidity
We increased our quarterly recurring dividend per common share in February 2025 by 2.4% to $1.27 per common share from $1.24 per common share. Further, we expended $326.1 million in the first half of 2025 to repurchase 3.4 million shares of our outstanding common stock, at an average price of $97.30 per share. These dividends and repurchases were expended using existing cash balances and cash generated from operations. While opportunistic in our approach to stock buybacks, we will generally repurchase our common stock over time to offset the dilution created by our equity-based compensation plans.
Since the end of 2022, we have returned over $3.7 billion to stockholders through stock repurchases and regular quarterly dividends, as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| (in millions) | Recurring dividend | | | | Stock repurchases | | Total cash returned to stockholders |
| 2023 | $ | 1,121.9 | | | | | $ | 254.3 | | | $ | 1,376.2 | |
| 2024 | 1,135.2 | | | | | 334.5 | | | 1,469.7 | |
Six months ended 6/30/2025 | 574.9 | | | | | 326.1 | | | 901.0 | |
| Total | $ | 2,832.0 | | | | | $ | 914.9 | | | $ | 3,746.9 | |
We anticipate property, equipment, software and other capital expenditures, including internal labor capitalization, for the full-year 2025 to be about $282 million of which over 80% is planned for technology initiatives. We expect to fund our anticipated capital expenditures with operating cash flows and other available resources.
Cash Flows

Operating Activities
Operating activities attributable to T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. provided cash flows of $1,446.4 million during the first half of 2025, a decrease of $24.0 million from $1,470.4 million provided during the 2024 period. The decrease was primarily driven by a $61.5 million decrease in net income and a $30.3 million decrease in cash flows related to timing differences in the cash settlement of our assets and liabilities. These decreases in operating cash flows were offset in part by a $37.1 million increase in the add-back for non-cash items as detailed in the table above. Additionally, in 2025, net redemptions from certain investment products that economically hedge our deferred compensation liabilities were $30.7 million higher as compared to the 2024 period. The remaining change in reported cash flows from operating activities was attributable to the net change in trading securities held in our consolidated investment products’ underlying portfolios.
Our interim operating cash flows does not include the cash impact of variable compensation that is accrued throughout the year before being substantially paid out in December.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities attributable to T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. totaled $144.9 million in 2025 compared with $75.7 million in 2024. In 2025, we decreased our property and equipment expenditures by $61.6 million and decreased other investing activity by $20.9 million compared to the 2024 period. Partially offsetting these decreases was lower net proceeds from the sale of sponsored investment products. During 2025, we had net proceeds from the sale of investments of $20.3 million compared to $172.0 million during the 2024 period. We eliminate our capital in our consolidated investment products in preparing our consolidated statements of cash flows. The remaining change in reported cash flows from investing activities of $12.0 million is related to the net cash removed from our unaudited consolidated balance sheet from consolidating and deconsolidating investment products.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities attributable to T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. totaled $892.4 million in 2025 compared with $746.4 million in 2024. During 2025, we used $328.3 million to repurchase 3.4 million shares compared to $195.5 million to repurchase 1.7 million shares in 2024. The $5.4 million increase in dividends paid in 2025 was a result of the 2.4% increase in our quarterly dividend per share over prior year. The remaining change in reported cash flows from financing activities was primarily attributable to a $34.2 million increase in net subscriptions from redeemable non-controlling interest holders of our consolidated investment products during 2025.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
The preparation of financial statements often requires the selection of specific accounting methods and policies from among several acceptable alternatives. Further, significant estimates and judgments may be required in selecting and applying those methods and policies in the recognition of the assets and liabilities in our unaudited consolidated balance sheets, the revenues and expenses in our unaudited consolidated statements of income, and the information that is contained in our significant accounting policies and notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements. Making these estimates and judgments requires the analysis of information concerning events that may not yet be complete and of facts and circumstances that may change over time. Accordingly, actual amounts or future results can differ materially from those estimates that we include currently in our unaudited consolidated financial statements, significant accounting policies, and notes.
There have been no material changes in the critical accounting policies previously identified in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
NEWLY-ISSUED BUT NOT YET ADOPTED ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE.

Rowe Price Group, Inc., including those within this report, may contain certain forward-looking information, including information or anticipated information relating to: our revenues, net income, and earnings per share of common stock; changes in the amount and composition of our assets under management; our expense levels, tax rate, dividends, stock repurchases, investments, new products and services, capital expenditures, changes in our effective fee rate, and potential transactions; legal or regulatory developments; geopolitical instability; interest rates and currency fluctuations; our expectations regarding financial markets and other industry or market conditions. Readers are cautioned that any forward-looking information provided by or on behalf of T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. is not a guarantee of future performance. Actual results may differ materially from those in forward-looking information because of various factors including, but not limited to, those discussed below and in Item 1A, Risk Factors, included in our Form 10-K Annual Report for 2024. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which it is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
Our future revenues and results of operations will fluctuate primarily due to changes in the total value and composition of assets under our management. Such changes result from many factors, including, among other things: client-related cash inflows and outflows in our products, performance fees, capital allocation-based income, fluctuations in global financial markets that result in appreciation or depreciation of the assets under our management, our introduction of new investment products, and changes in retirement savings trends relative to participant-directed investments and defined contribution plans.
The ability to attract and retain investors’ assets under our management is dependent on investor sentiment and confidence, including changes in sentiment and confidence that may result from U.S. trade policies, market volatility and economic outlook; the relative investment performance of the T. Rowe Price mutual funds and other managed investment products as compared with competing offerings and market indexes; the ability to maintain our investment management and administrative fees at appropriate levels; the impact of changes in interest rates and inflation; competitive conditions in the mutual fund, asset management, and broader financial services sectors; our level of success in implementing our strategy to expand our business; and our ability to attract and retain key personnel. Our revenues are substantially dependent on fees earned under contracts with the T. Rowe Price funds and could be adversely affected if the independent directors of one or more of the T. Rowe Price funds terminated or significantly altered the terms of the investment management or related administrative services agreements. Non-operating investment income will also fluctuate primarily due to the size of our investments, changes in their market valuations, and any other-than-temporary impairments that may arise or, in the case of our equity method investments, our proportionate share of the investees’ net income.
Our future results are also dependent upon the level of our expenses, which are subject to fluctuation for the following or other reasons: changes in the level of our advertising and promotion expenses in response to market conditions, including our efforts to expand our investment advisory business to investors outside the U.S. and to further penetrate our distribution channels within the U.S.; the pace and level of spending to support key strategic priorities; variations in the level of total compensation expense due to, among other things, bonuses, restricted stock units and other equity grants, other incentive awards, our supplemental savings plan, changes in our employee count and mix, and competitive factors; any goodwill, intangible asset or other asset impairment that may arise; fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates applicable to the costs of our international operations; expenses and capital costs, such as technology assets, depreciation, amortization, and research and development, incurred to maintain and enhance our administrative and operating services infrastructure; the timing of the assumption of all third party research payments, unanticipated costs that may be incurred to protect investor accounts and the goodwill of our clients; and disruptions of services, including those provided by third parties, such as fund and product recordkeeping, facilities, communications, power, and the mutual fund transfer agent and accounting systems, as a result of extreme events, cyberattacks or otherwise.
Our business is also subject to substantial governmental regulation, and changes in legal, regulatory, accounting, tax, and compliance requirements may have a substantial effect on our operations and results, including, but not limited to, effects on costs that we incur and effects on investor interest in investment products and investing in general or in particular classes of mutual funds or other investments.

Our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, has evaluated any change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the second quarter of 2025, and has concluded that there was no change during the second quarter of 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
