Second-Quarter Business Commentary:
- Revenues increased in second-quarter 2012 as compared to both second-quarter 2011 and first-quarter 2012. This was driven by an increase in Asset management, administrative, and distribution fee revenues resulting from increased cash flows from new and existing clients and market appreciation in 2012, despite the market decline in second-quarter 2012.
- Our average assets under management, excluding LSV, increased $7.4 billion, or six percent, to $126.6 billion in the second-quarter 2012 as compared to $119.2 billion during the second-quarter 2011 and increased $2.5 billion, or 2 percent, as compared to $124.1 billion during the first-quarter 2012 (See attached Ending and Average Asset Balances schedules for further details).
- Sales events, net of client losses, during second-quarter 2012 totaled approximately $20.3 million and are expected to generate net annualized recurring revenues of approximately $15.7 million when contract values are fully realized.
- Income from LSV decreased $6.8 million to $22.7 million in second-quarter 2012 as compared to $29.5 million in second-quarter 2011. The reduction in earnings was due to lower assets under management from market deprecation in second-quarter 2012 and a decrease in our ownership interest to 40 percent from 41 percent.
- Net income attributable to SEI includes gains from SIV securities of $1.1 million in second-quarter 2012 compared to losses of $1.9 million in second-quarter 2011 and a gain of $2.9 million in first-quarter 2012.
- The effective tax rates were 36.6 percent in the second-quarter 2012 and 34.7 percent in the second-quarter 2011. The increase in the tax rate was due to tax planning strategies which benefited the tax rate in second-quarter 2011.
- In the second-quarter 2012, SEI purchased 2.25 million shares of its common stock for $42.2 million.
