Second-Quarter Business Highlights:
- Revenue growth in the quarter was primarily driven by higher Asset management, administration, and distribution fees from improved cash flows from new and existing clients. The market volatility occurring during the course of the preceding 12 months negatively impacted our asset-based fee revenues and partially offset our revenue growth.
- Sales events, net of client losses, during second-quarter 2016 totaled approximately $29.1 million and are expected to generate net annualized recurring revenues of approximately $23.4 million when contract values are fully realized.
- Our average assets under management, excluding LSV, increased $11.9 billion, or seven percent, to $189.1 billion, as compared to $177.1 billion during the second-quarter 2015 (see attached Average Asset Balances schedules for further details).
- Our average assets under administration increased $37.5 billion, or nine percent, to $433.7 billion in the second-quarter 2016, as compared to $396.2 billion during the second-quarter 2015 (see attached Average Asset Balances schedules for further details).
- Our earnings from LSV decreased by $8.0 million, or 21 percent, to $30.3 million in second-quarter 2016 as compared to $38.3 million in second-quarter 2015. The decline in earnings was due to lower assets under management from market volatility and reduced performance fees.
- We capitalized $10.1 million and $8.1 million of software development costs in second-quarter 2016 and 2015, respectively, of which $8.5 million and $6.3 million are related to continued enhancements to the SEI Wealth Platform.
- Amortization expense related to the SEI Wealth Platform increased to $11.1 million during the second-quarter 2016 as compared to $10.6 million during the second-quarter 2015 due to continued enhancements.
- Our operating expenses, primarily personnel costs, in our Investment Advisors and Investment Managers segments increased. These expenses primarily consist of operational and marketing costs and are mainly related to servicing existing clients and acquiring new clients. Additionally, sales compensation expense in our Investment Managers segment increased due to new business activity.
- The strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the British pound and Canadian dollar during 2016 negatively impacted our revenues and operating income of our Private Banks and Institutional Investors segments. A prolonged period of a strengthening U.S. dollar against these currencies could have a further negative impact to our revenues and operating profits of these segments.
- Our effective tax rates were 35.2 percent in second-quarter 2016 and 35.6 percent in second-quarter 2015.
- We repurchased 1.5 million shares of our common stock for $73.5 million during the second-quarter 2016.
