Cohen & Steers (CNS) verzeichnete im zweiten Quartal 2025 ein solides j盲hrliches Wachstum. Der Umsatz stieg um 11,8 % auf 136,1 Millionen US-Dollar, angetrieben durch einen Anstieg der Beratungsgeb眉hren um 12,2 %, w盲hrend das durchschnittliche verwaltete Verm枚gen (AUM) um 9,6 % auf 87,2 Milliarden US-Dollar zunahm. Die Betriebskosten stiegen um 11,4 %, doch der Betriebsgewinn erh枚hte sich dennoch um 12,8 % auf 43,3 Millionen US-Dollar, wodurch die operative Marge auf 31,8 % anstieg (Q2-24: 31,5 %). Der auf Stammaktion盲re entfallende Nettogewinn stieg um 16,0 % auf 36,8 Millionen US-Dollar bzw. 0,72 US-Dollar verw盲ssertes Ergebnis je Aktie gegen眉ber 0,63 US-Dollar im Vorjahr.
Das verwaltete Verm枚gen erreichte mit 88,9 Milliarden US-Dollar einen Rekordwert und stieg damit um 10,2 % im Jahresvergleich, unterst眉tzt durch eine Marktbewertung von 4,4 Milliarden US-Dollar, die geringe Nettoabfl眉sse von 0,13 Milliarden US-Dollar ausglich. Offene Fonds wuchsen um 14,7 % auf 43,0 Milliarden; institutionelle Konten stiegen um 6,7 % auf 34,4 Milliarden; geschlossene Fonds erh枚hten sich um 5,0 % auf 11,6 Milliarden. Bargeld und Zahlungsmittel盲quivalente sanken auf 95,4 Millionen US-Dollar (-48 % seit Jahresbeginn), da der operative Cashflow mit -176,6 Millionen US-Dollar negativ war, haupts盲chlich aufgrund von Seed-Investitionen und Schwankungen im Umlaufverm枚gen. Die Renditen f眉r die Aktion盲re setzten sich fort: 64,8 Millionen US-Dollar an Dividenden im laufenden Jahr (viertelj盲hrlich 0,62 US-Dollar pro Aktie) und 26,6 Millionen US-Dollar an Aktienr眉ckk盲ufen. Die Bilanzhebel bleiben niedrig, ohne Kredite aus der 100-Millionen-US-Dollar-Kreditlinie und einem Eigenkapital von 541 Millionen gegen眉ber Verbindlichkeiten von 209 Millionen.
Positive
- Revenue up 11.8% YoY to $136.1 million, reflecting higher advisory fees and favorable product mix.
- Net income attributable to shareholders grew 16% to $36.9 million; diluted EPS $0.72 vs. $0.63.
- AUM hit a record $88.9 billion, +10.2% YoY, with $4.4 billion market appreciation.
- Operating margin expanded to 31.8% (up 30 bps), showing cost discipline.
- Balance sheet remains debt-free with $541 million equity and unused $100 million credit line.
Negative
- Net operating cash flow was -$176.6 million YTD, mainly from seed investments and working-capital shifts.
- Modest net outflows of $131 million in the quarter indicate organic growth challenges.
- Cash balance fell 48% YTD to $95 million, reducing liquidity cushion.
- Expenses rose 11.4% YoY; general & administrative costs up 23% on fund-related charges and hiring.
- Foreign-exchange and derivative losses of $2.5 million dragged non-operating results.
Insights
TL;DR: Earnings beat on higher fees and AUM; cash usage and outflows merit monitoring.
CNS delivered double-digit top- and bottom-line growth as rising markets and a richer product mix (higher-fee real-estate mandates) outweighed expense creep. Record AUM of $88.9 billion underpins forward fee income, while the 24.7% tax rate and modest share count keep EPS leverage intact. However, negative operating cash flow鈥攄riven by seeding and comp accruals鈥攁nd persistent albeit small net outflows signal that organic traction is not yet secured. Valuation sensitive investors will like the 4% dividend yield and net-cash balance sheet; growth investors will focus on whether recent ETF launches can reverse flow trends.

Die Betriebskosten stiegen um 11,4 %, doch der Betriebsgewinn erh枚hte sich dennoch um 12,8 % auf 43,3 Millionen US-Dollar, wodurch die operative Marge auf 31,8 % anstieg (Q2-24: 31,5 %). Der auf Stammaktion盲re entfallende Nettogewinn stieg um 16,0 % auf 36,8 Millionen US-Dollar bzw. 0,72 US-Dollar verw盲ssertes Ergebnis je Aktie gegen眉ber 0,63 US-Dollar im Vorjahr.
Das verwaltete Verm枚gen erreichte mit 88,9 Milliarden US-Dollar einen Rekordwert und stieg damit um 10,2 % im Jahresvergleich, unterst眉tzt durch eine Marktbewertung von 4,4 Milliarden US-Dollar, die geringe Nettoabfl眉sse von 0,13 Milliarden US-Dollar ausglich. Offene Fonds wuchsen um 14,7 % auf 43,0 Milliarden; institutionelle Konten stiegen um 6,7 % auf 34,4 Milliarden; geschlossene Fonds erh枚hten sich um 5,0 % auf 11,6 Milliarden. Bargeld und Zahlungsmittel盲quivalente sanken auf 95,4 Millionen US-Dollar (-48 % seit Jahresbeginn), da der operative Cashflow mit -176,6 Millionen US-Dollar negativ war, haupts盲chlich aufgrund von Seed-Investitionen und Schwankungen im Umlaufverm枚gen. Die Renditen f眉r die Aktion盲re setzten sich fort: 64,8 Millionen US-Dollar an Dividenden im laufenden Jahr (viertelj盲hrlich 0,62 US-Dollar pro Aktie) und 26,6 Millionen US-Dollar an Aktienr眉ckk盲ufen. Die Bilanzhebel bleiben niedrig, ohne Kredite aus der 100-Millionen-US-Dollar-Kreditlinie und einem Eigenkapital von 541 Millionen gegen眉ber Verbindlichkeiten von 209 Millionen.

1. Organization and Description of Business
Cohen & Steers, Inc. (CNS) was organized as a Delaware corporation on March 17, 2004. CNS is the holding company for its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including Cohen & Steers Capital Management, Inc. (CSCM), Cohen & Steers Securities, LLC (CSS), Cohen & Steers UK Limited (CSUK), Cohen & Steers Ireland Limited (CSIL), Cohen & Steers Asia Limited (CSAL), Cohen & Steers Japan Limited (CSJL) and Cohen & Steers Singapore Private Limited (CSSG) (collectively, the Company).
The Company is a global investment manager specializing in real assets and alternative income, including listed and private real estate, preferred securities, infrastructure, resource equities, commodities, as well as multi-strategy solutions. Founded in 1986, the Company is headquartered in New York City, with offices in London, Dublin, Hong Kong, Tokyo and Singapore.
2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The condensed consolidated financial statements set forth herein include the accounts of CNS and its direct and indirect subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim results have been made. The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes should be read together with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company’s significant accounting policies, which have been consistently applied, are summarized in its Form 10-K.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements—In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09 (ASU), Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The standard requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as additional information on income taxes paid. The standard is intended to benefit investors by providing more detailed income tax disclosures that would be useful in making capital allocation decisions. This new guidance became effective on January 1, 2025. The Company's adoption of this new standard did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards. The standard clarifies how an entity determines whether a profits interest or similar award is (1) within the scope of Topic 718 or (2) not a share-based payment arrangement and therefore within the scope of other guidance. The guidance in ASU 2024-01 applies to all entities that issue profits interest awards as compensation to employees or nonemployees in exchange for goods or services. This new guidance became effective on January 1, 2025. The Company's adoption of this new standard did not have an impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Implemented—In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income — Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The standard requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. This new guidance will be effective on January 1, 2027 for annual reporting and January 1, 2028 for interim reporting. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this new standard will have on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Recently Enacted Tax Legislation—On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law the legislation formally titled “An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Title II of H. Con. Res. 14” (the Act), which became effective during the third quarter of fiscal year 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the Act; however, it does not expect the legislation to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

•Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable.
•Level 3—Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
These levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the investments.
The following tables present fair value measurements:

Equity investments at fair value classified as Level 2 represents the Company's seed investment in Cohen & Steers Income Opportunities REIT, Inc. (CNSREIT), for which quoted prices in active markets are not available. The Company elected the fair value option for CNSREIT to align the measurement of the seed investment and the related gains and losses with other seed investments. The Company's ownership interest was 39.8 % and 49.4 % at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The fair value of this seed investment was $80.2 million and $70.0 million at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The valuation is based on the monthly published net asset value (NAV), which is an observable transaction price, however, shares are not actively traded as subscriptions and redemptions are permitted to occur monthly. The unrealized gain on the seed investment in CNSREIT was $1.6 million and $2.1 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and $1.0 million and $1.1 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2024, respectively.
Equity investments at fair value classified as Level 3 were comprised of limited partnership interests in joint ventures that hold investments in private real estate.
Trading investments classified as Level 2 were comprised of U.S. Treasury securities, over-the-counter preferred securities and investment-grade corporate debt securities. Fair values were generally determined using third-party pricing services. The pricing services may utilize evaluated pricing models that vary by asset class and incorporate available trade, bid and other market information.
Investments measured using NAV (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient primarily consist of limited partnership interests in private real estate funds. At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company did not have the ability to redeem its interests in certain of these investments and others may be redeemed subject to certain restrictions. These investments have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy and are presented in the above tables to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the amounts presented on the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition.
Total return swap contracts classified as Level 2 were valued based on the underlying futures contracts or equity indices.
Foreign currency exchange contracts classified as Level 2 were valued based on the prevailing forward exchange rate, which is an input that is observable in active markets.

Set forth on the following pages is management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. Such information should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes included herein. The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited. When we use the terms "Cohen & Steers," the "Company," "we," "us," and "our," we mean Cohen & Steers, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries.
Executive Overview
General
We are a global investment manager specializing in real assets and alternative income, including listed and private real estate, preferred securities, infrastructure, resource equities, commodities, as well as multi-strategy solutions. Founded in 1986, we are headquartered in New York City, with offices in London, Dublin, Hong Kong, Tokyo and Singapore.
Our primary investment strategies include U.S. real estate, preferred securities, including low duration preferred securities, private real estate solutions, global/international real estate, global listed infrastructure, real assets multi-strategy, and global natural resource equities. Our strategies seek to achieve a variety of investment objectives for different risk profiles and are actively managed by specialist teams of investment professionals who employ fundamental-driven research and portfolio management processes. We offer our strategies through a variety of investment vehicles, including U.S. and non-U.S. registered funds and other commingled vehicles, separate accounts and subadvised portfolios. During the first quarter of 2025, we launched our first active exchange traded funds (ETFs).
Our distribution network encompasses two major channels, wealth and institutional. Our wealth channel includes registered investment advisers, wirehouses, independent and regional broker dealers and bank trusts. Our institutional channel includes sovereign wealth funds, corporate plans, insurance companies and public funds, including defined benefit and defined contribution plans, as well as other financial institutions that access our investment management services directly or through consultants and other intermediaries.
Our revenue from the wealth channel is derived from investment advisory, administration, distribution and service fees from open-end and closed-end funds as well as other commingled vehicles. Our revenue from the institutional channel is derived from fees received from our clients for managing advised and subadvised accounts. Our fees are based on contractually specified rates applied to the value of the assets we manage and, in certain cases, may include a performance-based fee. Our revenue fluctuates with changes in the total value of our assets under management, which may occur as a result of market appreciation and depreciation, contributions to or withdrawals from investor accounts and distributions. This revenue is recognized over the period that the assets are managed.
Macroeconomic Environment
During the second quarter of 2025, global markets remained subject to ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty and heightened geopolitical tensions. Central banks in major economies continued to evaluate the trade-off between persistent inflationary pressures and signs of moderating economic growth, contributing to evolving expectations regarding the future path of interest rates. These dynamics contributed to elevated market volatility and shifting investor sentiment, impacting asset flows across regions and sectors.
Despite these challenges, we maintained our disciplined approach, leveraging our portfolio management expertise and robust risk management framework. We believe our continued focus on prudent cost control and operational efficiency positions us to navigate this complex environment and adapt to evolving market conditions.
Recently Enacted Tax Legislation
On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law the legislation formally titled “An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Title II of H. Con. Res. 14” (the Act), which became effective during the third quarter of fiscal year 2025. We are currently evaluating the impact of the Act; however, we do not expect the legislation to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Investment Performance at June 30, 2025
_________________________(1) Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Outperformance is determined by comparing the annualized investment performance of each investment strategy to the performance of specified reference benchmarks. Investment performance in excess of the performance of the benchmark is considered outperformance. The investment performance calculation of each investment strategy is based on all active accounts and investment models pursuing similar investment objectives. For accounts, actual investment performance is measured gross of fees and net of withholding taxes. For investment models, for which actual investment performance does not exist, the investment performance of a composite of accounts pursuing comparable investment objectives is used as a proxy for actual investment performance. The performance of the specified reference benchmark for each account and investment model is measured net of withholding taxes, where applicable.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Based on independent rating by Morningstar, Inc. of investment performance of each Cohen & Steers-sponsored open-end U.S.-registered mutual fund for all share classes for the overall period at June 30, 2025. Overall Morningstar rating is a weighted average based on the 3-year, 5-year and 10-year Morningstar rating. 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.

Reconciliations of U.S. GAAP to As Adjusted Financial Results
Management believes that use of the following as adjusted (non-GAAP) financial results provides greater transparency into the Company’s operating performance. In addition, these as adjusted financial results are used to prepare the Company's internal management reports which are used in evaluating its business. While management believes that these as adjusted financial results are useful in evaluating operating performance, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Changes in Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
We seek to maintain a balance sheet that supports our business strategies and provides the appropriate amount of liquidity at all times.
Net Liquid Assets
Our current financial condition is highly liquid and is primarily comprised of cash and cash equivalents, U.S. Treasury securities, liquid seed investments and other current assets. Liquid assets are reduced by current liabilities (together, net liquid assets).
The table below summarizes net liquid assets:
| (in thousands) | June 30, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | |||||||||
| Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 95,372 | $ | 182,974 | |||||||
| U.S. Treasury securities | 109,242 | 109,086 | |||||||||
| Liquid seed investments—net | 118,185 | 68,858 | |||||||||
| Other current assets | 74,555 | 75,959 | |||||||||
| Current liabilities | (72,370) | (105,396) | |||||||||
| Net liquid assets | $ | 324,984 | $ | 331,481 | |||||||
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are on deposit with major national financial institutions and include short-term, highly liquid investments, which are readily convertible into cash.
U.S. Treasury securities
U.S. Treasury securities, recorded at fair value, are directly issued by the U.S. government and were classified as trading investments.
Liquid seed investments—net
Liquid seed investments, recorded at fair value, are generally traded in active markets on major exchanges and can typically be liquidated within a normal settlement cycle. Liquid seed investments are primarily securities held directly for the purpose of establishing performance records and the Company's economic interest in certain consolidated funds which are presented net of noncontrolling interests.
Other current assets
Other current assets primarily represent investment advisory and administration fees receivable. We perform a review of our receivables on an ongoing basis to assess collectability and, based on our analysis at June 30, 2025, no allowance for uncollectible accounts was required.
Current liabilities
Current liabilities included accrued compensation and benefits, distribution and service fees payable, operating lease obligations due within 12 months, certain income taxes payable and certain other liabilities and accrued expenses.
Future liquidity needs
Our business may become capital intensive over time to support growth initiatives. Potential uses of capital range from, among other things, seeding new strategies and investment vehicles, co-investing in private real estate vehicles, funding the upfront costs associated with product offerings, and making various investments to grow our firm infrastructure as our business scales. In order to provide us with additional financial flexibility to pursue these opportunities, we have a $100.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility maturing on January 20, 2026.
We have committed to invest up to a total of $175.0 million in certain of our investment vehicles, of which $64.1 million remained unfunded as of June 30, 2025. The timing for funding the remaining portion of our commitments is uncertain.
30
Cash flows
Our cash flows generally result from the operating activities of our business, with investment advisory and administration fees being the most significant contributor.
The table below summarizes our cash flows:
| Six Months Ended June 30, | |||||||||||
| (in thousands) | 2025 | 2024 | |||||||||
| Cash Flow Data: | |||||||||||
| Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities | $ | (176,585) | $ | 36,237 | |||||||
| Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities | 4,532 | (103,743) | |||||||||
| Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities | 83,264 | 1,500 | |||||||||
| Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents | (88,789) | (66,006) | |||||||||
| Effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents | 1,357 | (810) | |||||||||
| Cash and cash equivalents, beginning of the period | 183,162 | 189,603 | |||||||||
| Cash and cash equivalents, end of the period | $ | 95,730 | $ | 122,787 | |||||||
Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $88.8 million, excluding the effect of foreign exchange rate changes, for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Cash flows from operating activities primarily consisted of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in assets and liabilities. Net cash used in operating activities was $176.6 million, which
included net purchases of investments within consolidated funds of $242.2 million, including $54.3 million of our seed investments into the ETFs. Net cash provided by investing activities was $4.5 million. Net cash provided by financing activities was $83.3 million, including net contributions from noncontrolling interests of $172.7 million, partially offset by dividends paid to stockholders of $63.4 million and repurchases of common stock to satisfy employee withholding tax obligations on the vesting and delivery of restricted stock units of $26.6 million.
Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Contingencies
Contractual Obligations
The Company’s material contractual obligations, commitments and contingencies at June 30, 2025 include operating leases, investment commitments, and purchase obligations. As of June 30, 2025, there have been no material changes to our contractual obligations from our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 other than the items described below.
Investment Commitments
We have committed to invest up to a total of $175.0 million in certain of our investment vehicles. Refer to Note 11, Commitments and Contingencies, in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I of this filing for further discussion.
Dividends
Subject to the approval of our board of directors, we anticipate paying dividends. When determining whether to pay a dividend, we consider general economic and business conditions, our strategic plans, our results of operations and financial condition, cash flow and liquidity, contractual, legal and regulatory restrictions on the payment of dividends, if any, by us and our subsidiaries and such other factors deemed relevant.
On July 31, 2025, we declared a quarterly dividend on our common stock in the amount of $0.62 per share. This dividend will be payable on August 21, 2025 to stockholders of record at the close of business on August 11, 2025.
Critical Accounting Estimates
A complete discussion of our critical accounting estimates is included in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. There were no changes to the Company’s critical accounting estimates for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
31
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
In the normal course of our business, we are exposed to risk as a result of changes in interest and currency rates, securities markets and other general economic conditions including inflation, which may have an adverse impact on the value of our assets under management and our seed investments. The majority of our revenue is derived from investment advisory and administration fees which are based on average assets under management. Accordingly, where there are changes in the value of the assets we manage as a result of market fluctuations, our revenue may change.
The economic environment may also preclude us from increasing the assets we manage in closed-end funds. The market conditions for these offerings may not be favorable in the future, which could adversely impact our ability to grow the assets we manage. Depending on market conditions, the closed-end funds we manage may increase or decrease their leverage to maintain target leverage ratios, thereby increasing or decreasing the assets we manage and the associated revenue.
Seed investments
Our seed investments included both liquid and illiquid holdings. Liquid seed investments are generally traded in active markets on major exchanges and can typically be liquidated within a normal settlement cycle. Illiquid seed investments are generally comprised of limited partnership interests in private real estate vehicles and our seed investment in CNSREIT for which there may be contractual restrictions on redemption.
Our seed investments are subject to market risk. We may mitigate this risk by entering into derivative contracts designed to hedge certain portions of our risk. The following table summarizes the effect of a ten percent increase or decrease on the carrying value of our seed investments, which are presented net of noncontrolling interests, if any, as of June 30, 2025 (in thousands):

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
