Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;

(ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company;

and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.

Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments.

The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Impairment Assessment for Certain Equity Method Investments in Affiliates

As described in Notes 1 and 9 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s equity method investments in affiliates balance was $2,288.5 million as of December 31, 2023, a portion of which related to certain equity method investments.

For its affiliates accounted for under the equity method, management periodically performs assessments to determine if the fair value of an investment may have declined below its related carrying value for a period that management considers to be other-than-temporary.

Management first considers whether certain qualitative and quantitative factors (including discount rates) indicate an increased likelihood of a decline in the fair value.

If such a decline is identified, and it is likely that an investment’s fair value may have declined below its carrying value, management performs a quantitative assessment to determine if an impairment exists.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the impairment assessment for certain equity method investments in affiliates is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management in assessing whether there were certain qualitative and quantitative factors indicating an increased likelihood of a decline in the fair value of certain equity method investments in affiliates, (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence related to management’s assessment of indicators of impairment related to the discount rate assumptions, and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements.

These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s impairment assessment for equity method investments in affiliates to assess whether there were certain qualitative and quantitative factors indicating an increased likelihood of a decline in the fair value.

These procedures also included, among others, (i) testing management’s process for assessing whether there were certain qualitative and quantitative factors indicating an increased likelihood of a decline in the fair value of certain equity method investments in affiliates, (ii) testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used in management’s assessment of indicators of an increased likelihood of a decline in the fair value, (iii) evaluating the reasonableness of management’s discount rate assumptions by considering whether the assumptions were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit, (iv) and the involvement of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in evaluating the reasonableness of management’s discount rate assumptions.

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial

statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or

disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or

complex judgments.

The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated

financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate

opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Impairment Assessment for an Equity Method Investment in an Affiliate

As described in Notes 1 and 8 to the consolidated financial statements, management periodically evaluates its equity method

investments in affiliates for impairment by performing assessments to determine if the fair value may have declined below the

related carrying value for a period that they consider to be other-than-temporary.

In the second quarter of 2024, management

concluded that due to an anticipated decline in assets under management, which decreased the forecasted income associated

with an equity method investment in an affiliate , there was a $39.9 million expense to reduce the carrying value of the equity

method investment in an affiliate to fair value.

The fair value of the equity method investment in an affiliate was determined

using a discounted cash flow analysis that included discount rates for asset- and performance-based fees, long-term growth rate,

growth in assets under management, and market participant tax rate.

The Company’s e quity method investments in affiliates

(net) balance was $2,246.6 million as of December 31, 2024, a portion which relates to the equity method investment in an

affiliate with a reduction in the carrying value to fair value in the second quarter of 2024.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the impairment assessment for an

equity method investment in an affiliate is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when

developing the fair value estimate of the equity method investment in an affiliate, (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment,

subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant assumptions related to the discount

rates for asset- and performance-based fees, and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall

opinion on the consolidated financial statements.

These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to

management’s impairment assessment for the equity method investment in an affiliate, including controls over the discounted

cash flow analysis and significant assumptions used to develop the fair value estimate of an equity method investment in an

These procedures also included, among others, (i) testing management’s process for developing the fair value estimate

of the equity method investment in an affiliate, (ii) evaluating the appropriateness of the discounted cash flow analysis used by

management, (iii) testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used in the discounted cash flow analysis, and

(iv) evaluating the reasonableness of the significant assumptions used by management related to the discount rates for asset-

and performance-based fees.

Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in evaluating (i) the

appropriateness of the discounted cash flow analysis and (ii) the reasonableness of the discount rates for asset- and

performance-based fees.

Affiliated Managers Group, Inc.

(“AMG” or the “Company”) is a strategic partner to leading independent investment management firms globally.

AMG’s strategy is to generate long-term value by investing in a diverse array of high-quality independent partner-owned firms, referred to as “Affiliates.” The Company’s Affiliates provide a comprehensive and diverse range of differentiated investment strategies designed to assist institutional and wealth clients worldwide in achieving their investment objectives.

The Company operates in one segment, global investment management.

Each of the Company’s Affiliates operates through distinct legal entities, which affords the Company the flexibility to design a separate operating agreement for each Affiliate.

Each operating agreement reflects the specific terms of the Company’s economic participation in the Affiliate, which, in each case, uses a “structured partnership interest.”

The form of the Company’s structured partnership interests in Affiliates differs from Affiliate to Affiliate and ranges from structures where the Company contractually shares in the Affiliate’s revenue without regard to expenses, comprising Affiliates that contribute a majority of the Company’s Consolidated revenue, to others where the Company contractually shares in the Affiliate’s revenue less agreed-upon expenses.

Further, the structure at a particular Affiliate, or the expenses that the Company agrees to share in, may change during the course of the Company’s investment.

Where the Company shares in the Affiliate’s revenue without regard to expenses, the Affiliate allocates a specified percentage of its revenue to the Company and Affiliate management, while using the remainder for operating expenses and additional distributions to Affiliate management.

The Company and Affiliate management, therefore, participate in any increase or decrease in revenue and only Affiliate management participates in any increase or decrease in expenses.

Under these structured partnership interests, the Company’s contractual share of revenue generally has priority over distributions to Affiliate management.

Where the Company shares in the Affiliate’s revenue less agreed-upon expenses, the Company benefits from any increase in revenue or any decrease in the agreed-upon expenses, but also has exposure to any decrease in revenue or any increase in such agreed-upon expenses.

The degree of the Company’s exposure to agreed-upon expenses from these structured partnership interests varies by Affiliate, and includes several Affiliates in which the Company fully shares in the expenses of the business.

In evaluating whether an investment must be consolidated, the Company evaluates the risk, rewards, and significant terms of each of its Affiliates and other investments to determine if an investment is considered a voting rights entity (“VRE”) or a variable interest entity (“VIE”).

An entity is a VRE when the total equity investment at risk is sufficient to enable the entity to finance its activities independently, and when the equity holders have the obligation to absorb losses, the right to receive residual returns, and the right to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact its economic performance.

An entity is a VIE when it lacks one or more of the characteristics of a VRE, which, for the Company, are Affiliate investments structured as partnerships (or similar entities) where the Company is a limited partner and lacks substantive kick-out or substantive participation rights over the general partner.

Assessing whether an entity is a VRE or VIE involves judgment.

Upon the occurrence of certain events, management reviews and reconsiders its previous conclusion regarding the status of an entity as a VRE or a VIE.

The Company consolidates VREs when it has control over significant operating, financial, and investing decisions of the entity.

When the Company lacks such control, but is deemed to have significant influence, the Company accounts for the VRE under the equity method.

Investments with readily determinable fair values in which the Company does not have rights to exercise significant influence are recorded at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, with changes in fair value included in Investment and other income on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The Company consolidates VIEs when it is the primary beneficiary of the entity, which is defined as having the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

Substantially all of the Company’s consolidated Affiliates considered VIEs are controlled because the Company holds a majority of the voting interests or it is the managing member or general partner.

When an Affiliate is consolidated, the portion of the earnings attributable to Affiliate management’s and any co-investor’s equity ownership is included in Net income (non-controlling interests) in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Undistributed earnings attributable to Affiliate management’s and any co-investor’s equity ownership, along with their share of any tangible or intangible net assets, are included in Non-controlling interests on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Affiliate equity interests where the holder has certain rights to demand settlement are presented, at their current redemption values, as Redeemable non-controlling interests or Other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company periodically issues, sells, and purchases the equity of its consolidated Affiliates.

Because these transactions take place between entities under common control, any gains or losses attributable to these transactions are required to be included in Additional paid-in capital on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, net of any related income tax effects in the period the transaction occurs.

When an Affiliate is accounted for under the equity method, the Company’s share of an Affiliate’s earnings or losses, net of amortization and impairments, is included in Equity method income (net) in the Consolidated Statements of Income and the carrying value of the Affiliate is recorded in Equity method investments in Affiliates (net) in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company periodically performs assessments to determine if the fair value of an investment may have declined below its related carrying value for its Affiliates accounted for under the equity method for a period that the Company considers to be other-than-temporary.

Third-party investors in Affiliate sponsored investment products are generally entitled to substantially all of the economics of these products, except for the asset- and performance-based fees earned by the Company’s Affiliates or any gains or losses attributable to the Company’s or its Affiliates’ investments in these products.

As a result, the Company generally does not consolidate these products.

Investments Measured at NAV as a Practical Expedient

The Company’s Affiliates sponsor funds in which the Company and its Affiliates may make general partner and seed

capital investments.

These funds generally operate in partnership form and apply the specialized fair value accounting for

investment companies.

Because the funds’ investments do not have readily determinable fair values, the Company uses the

NAV of these investments as a practical expedient for their fair values.

Investments Without Readily Determinable Fair Values

When an investment does not have a readily determinable fair value and does not qualify for the practical expedient to

estimate fair value, such as an investment in a private corporation where the Company does not exercise significant influence,

the Company generally elects to measure such investments at cost minus impairments, if any, plus or minus changes resulting

from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments.

Realized and unrealized gains and losses related to other investments are recorded in Investment and other income.

Fair value is determined based on the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an

orderly transaction between market participants in the principal or most advantageous market at the measurement date, utilizing

a hierarchy of three different valuation techniques:

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted market prices for identical instruments in active markets;

Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets;

quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active;

quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in

markets that are not active;

and model-derived valuations whose inputs, or significant value drivers, are observable;

Level 3 - Prices that reflect the Company’s own assumptions concerning unobservable inputs to the valuation model.

In these valuation models, the Company is required to make judgments about growth rates of assets under management, client attrition, asset- and performance-based fee rates, and expenses.

These valuation models also require judgments about tax benefits, credit risk, interest rates, tax rates, discount rates, volatility, and discounts for lack of marketability.

These inputs require significant management judgment and reflect the Company’s assumptions that the Company believes market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

and the Affiliate’s history and perceived franchise or brand value.

The Company has determined that certain of its acquired client relationships meet the criteria to be considered indefinite-lived assets because the Company expects the contracts to be renewed annually and, therefore, the cash flows generated by these contracts to continue indefinitely.

Accordingly, the Company does not amortize these intangible assets, but instead assesses these assets annually or more frequently whenever events or circumstances occur indicating that the recorded indefinite-lived acquired client relationship may be impaired.

Each reporting period, the Company assesses whether events or circumstances have occurred that indicate that the indefinite life criteria are no longer met.

The Company has determined that certain of its acquired client relationships meet the criteria to be considered definite-lived assets, including investment advisory contracts between its Affiliates and their underlying investors, and are amortized over their expected period of economic benefit.

The expected period of economic benefit of definite-lived acquired client relationships is a judgment based on the historical and projected attrition rates of each Affiliate’s existing clients, and other factors that may influence the expected future economic benefit the Company will derive from these relationships.

The expected lives of definite-lived acquired client relationships are analyzed annually or more frequently whenever events or circumstances have occurred that indicate the expected period of economic benefit may no longer be appropriate.

The Company assesses for the possible impairment of indefinite- and definite-lived acquired client relationships annually or more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.

If such indicators exist, the Company considers various qualitative and quantitative factors (including market multiples) to determine if the fair value of each asset is greater than its carrying value.

If the carrying value is greater than the fair value, an expense would be recorded in Intangible amortization and impairments in the Consolidated Statements of Income to reduce the carrying value of the asset to fair value.

Goodwill represents the future economic benefits arising from assets acquired in a business combination that are not separately recognized.

The Company assesses hedge effectiveness at derivative inception and on a quarterly basis.

Changes in fair value of a hedging instrument that are excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness, also known as excluded components, are recorded in earnings on a straight-line basis over the respective period of the contracts.

For derivative financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges, the Company uses a qualitative method of assessing hedge effectiveness by comparing the notional amounts, timing of payments, currencies (for forward foreign currency contracts), and interest rates (for interest rate swaps).

The effective portion of the unrealized gain or loss is recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax as a separate component of stockholders’ equity and reclassified to earnings with the hedged item.

If the qualitative assessment indicates ineffectiveness, then the Company performs a quantitative assessment which is generally measured by comparing the present value of the cumulative change in the expected future cash flows of the hedged contract with the present value of the cumulative change in the expected future cash flows of the hedged item.

Upon termination of these instruments or the repayment of the Company’s outstanding Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”)-based borrowings, any gain or loss recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified into earnings.

(m) Revenue Recognition

Consolidated revenue primarily represents asset- and performance-based fees earned by the Company and its consolidated Affiliates for managing the assets of clients.

Substantially all of the Company’s and its Affiliates’ contracts contain a single performance obligation, which is the provision of investment management services.

Investment management, broker-dealer, and administrative services are performed and consumed simultaneously and, therefore, the Company recognizes these asset-based fees ratably over time.

Substantially all the Company’s asset-based fees for services are based on the value of client assets over time, which are typically determined using observable market data, or on committed capital.

Services may be invoiced in advance or in arrears and are payable upon receipt.

Any asset-based fees collected in advance are deferred and recognized as the services are performed and consumed.

Consolidated revenue recognized by the Company is adjusted for any expense reimbursement arrangements.

The Company’s Affiliates may periodically either waive or reduce fees in order to attract or retain client assets or for other reasons.

Fee waivers or reductions are presented as a reduction to Consolidated revenue in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Performance-based fees, including carried interests, are recognized upon the satisfaction of performance obligations, the resolution of any constraints, which include exceeding performance benchmarks or hurdle rates that may extend over one or more reporting periods, and when it is improbable that there will be a significant reversal in the amount of revenue recognized.

As a result, any performance-based fees or carried interest recognized in the current reporting period may relate to performance obligations satisfied in a previous reporting period.

resolution of any constraints, which include exceeding performance benchmarks or hurdle rates that may extend over one or

more reporting periods, and when it is improbable that there will be a significant reversal in the amount of revenue recognized.

As a result, any performance-based fees or carried interest recognized in the current reporting period may relate to performance

obligations satisfied in a previous reporting period.

The Company and its Affiliates have contractual arrangements with third-parties to provide distribution-related services.

Fees received and expenses incurred under these arrangements are primarily based on the value of client assets over time.

Distribution-related fees are recorded in Consolidated revenue gross of any related expenses when the Company and its consolidated Affiliates are the principal in their role as primary obligor under their distribution-related services arrangements.

Distribution-related expenses are recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The Company and its Affiliates may enter into contracts for which the costs to obtain or fulfill the contract are based upon a percentage of the value of a client’s future assets under management.

The Company records these variable costs when incurred because they are subject to market volatility and are not estimable upon the inception of a contract with a client.

Any expenses paid in advance are capitalized and amortized on a systematic basis, consistent with the transfer of services, which is the equivalent of recognizing the costs as incurred.

(n) Contingent Payment Obligations

The Company periodically enters into contingent payment obligations in connection with its investments in Affiliates.

In these obligations, the Company agrees to pay additional consideration to the sellers to the extent that certain specified financial targets are achieved.

For consolidated Affiliates, the Company estimates the fair value of these potential future obligations at the time the investment in an Affiliate is consummated and records a liability in Other liabilities.

The Company then accretes the obligation to its expected payment amount over the period until the arrangement is measured.

If the Company’s expected payment amount subsequently changes, the obligation is reduced or increased in the current period resulting in a gain or loss, respectively.

Gains and losses resulting from changes to expected payments are included in Other expenses (net) and the accretion of these obligations to their expected payment amounts are included in Interest expense.

For Affiliates accounted for under the equity method, the Company records a liability in Other liabilities when a payment becomes probable, with a corresponding increase to the carrying value of the Affiliate in Equity method investments in Affiliates (net).

(o) Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of differences between the financial reporting bases of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, using tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to

Distribution-related fees are recorded in Consolidated revenue gross of any related expenses when the Company and its

AFFILIATED MANAGERS GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recorded in Income tax expense in the period when the change is enacted.

The Company regularly assesses the recoverability of its deferred income tax assets to determine whether these assets are more-likely-than-not to be realized.

In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and results of recent operations.

If the Company determines it would not be able to realize its deferred tax assets, it records a valuation allowance to reflect the deferred tax assets at their current value.

The recording of adjustments to the valuation allowance will increase or decrease Income tax expense.

The Company records unrecognized tax benefits based on whether it is more-likely-than-not that the uncertain tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position.

If it is determined that an uncertain tax position is more-likely-than-not to be sustained, the Company records the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority in Income tax expense.

(q) Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash investments and derivative financial instruments.

The Company and its Affiliates maintain cash and cash equivalents, investments, and, at times, certain derivative financial instruments with various high credit-quality financial institutions.

These financial institutions are typically located in countries in which the Company and its Affiliates operate.

For the Company and certain of its Affiliates, cash deposits at a financial institution may, from time to time, exceed insurance limits (similar to Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits).

(r) Earnings Per Share

The calculation of Earnings per share (basic) is based on the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the period.

Earnings per share (diluted) is similar to Earnings per share (basic), but adjusts for the dilutive effect of the potential issuance of incremental shares of the Company’s common stock.

The Company had share-based compensation awards outstanding during the periods presented with vesting provisions subject to certain performance conditions.

These awards are excluded from the calculation of Earnings per share (diluted) if the performance condition has not been met as of the end of the reporting period.

The Company has agreements with Affiliate equity holders that provide the Company a conditional right to call and holders a conditional right to put their interests to the Company at certain intervals.

These arrangements are presented at their current redemption value as Redeemable non-controlling interests.

The Company may settle these interests in cash or, subject to the terms of the applicable agreement, shares of its common stock, or other forms of consideration, at its option.

Prior to 2022, the Company excluded any potential dilutive effect from possible share settlements of Redeemable non-controlling interests as the Company currently intends to settle in cash.

Upon adoption of ASU 2020-06, the Company must assume the settlement of all of its Redeemable non-controlling interests using the maximum number of shares permitted under its arrangements.

Purchases are assumed to occur at the beginning of the reporting period.

The Company acquires the rights to the underlying Affiliate equity when purchased, and therefore, the earnings that would be acquired (net of tax) are assumed to increase Net income (controlling interest) in the computation of Earnings per share (diluted).

The issuance of shares and the related income acquired are excluded from the calculation if an assumed purchase of Redeemable non-controlling interests would be anti-dilutive to diluted earnings per share.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of

AFFILIATED MANAGERS GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

The Company had junior convertible securities outstanding during the periods presented and is required to apply the if-converted method to these securities in its calculation of Earnings per share (diluted).

Under the if-converted method, shares that are issuable upon conversion are deemed outstanding, regardless of whether the securities are contractually convertible into the Company’s common stock at that time.

For this calculation, the interest expense (net of tax) attributable to these dilutive securities is added back to Net income (controlling interest), reflecting the assumption that the securities have been converted.

Issuable shares for these securities and related interest expense are excluded from the calculation if an assumed conversion would be anti-dilutive to diluted earnings per share.

(s) Share-Based Compensation Plans

The Company recognizes expenses for all share-based compensation arrangements based on the number of awards expected to vest.

The expense for awards without performance conditions is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, including grants that are subject to graded vesting.

The Company recognizes expenses for all other arrangements on a straight-line basis for each separately vesting portion of the award.

Tax windfalls or shortfalls are recorded in Income tax expense and have been classified as operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Taxes paid by the Company when it withholds shares to satisfy tax withholding obligations are classified as a financing activity in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Other investments consists primarily of investments in funds advised by the Company’s Affiliates that are carried at NAV as a practical expedient and other investments without readily determinable fair values.

Any gain or loss related to these investments is recorded in Investment and other income.

Investments Measured at NAV as a Practical Expedient

The Company’s Affiliates sponsor funds in which the Company and its Affiliates may make general partner and seed capital investments.

These funds operate in partnership form and apply the specialized fair value accounting for investment companies.

The Company accounts for its interests in these funds using the equity method of accounting and is required to retain the specialized accounting of the investment companies.

Because the funds’ investments do not have readily determinable fair values, the Company uses the NAV of these investments as a practical expedient for their fair values.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded a $ 50.0 million expense to reduce the carrying value of an Affiliate to fair value.

The decline in the fair value was a result of a decline in assets under management and a reduction in projected margin, which decreased the forecasted income associated with the investment.

The fair value of the investment was determined using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis, a Level 3 fair value measurement that included a projected compounded growth in assets under management over the first five years of 2 %, long-term growth rate of 5 %, discount rates of 11 % and 20 % for asset- and performance-based fees, respectively, and a market participant tax rate of 25 %.

In August 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act was enacted into law and included provisions for a 15% corporate alternative minimum income tax and a 1% excise tax on repurchases of the Company’s common stock.

These provisions, which were effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2023, did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The Company records the excise tax as part of the cost basis of its common stock repurchased.

The Company continues to monitor and evaluate legislative developments related to the Organization for Economic Co-

operation and Development’s Pillar Two directive (“Pillar Two”), which establishes a framework for a global minimum

corporate tax rate of 15%.

Several countries in which the Company or its Affiliates operate are adopting legislation to

implement Pillar Two.

The Company currently does not expect Pillar Two to have a material impact on its Consolidated

Financial Statements.
