"2022's sharp market depreciation and client outflows negatively impacted our financial results for the year," said Heather Brilliant, President and CEO.

In an unprecedented year featuring double-digit negative returns for both equity and fixed income markets, we remained focused on our commitment to clients to generate long-term investment results and provide superior service."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliation
As supplemental information, the Company is providing certain financial measures that are based on methodologies other than GAAP ("non-GAAP"). Management believes the non-GAAP financial measures below are useful measures of the Company's core business activities, are important metrics in estimating the value of an asset management business, and help facilitate comparisons to Company operating performance across periods. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be used as a substitute for financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and may be calculated differently by other companies. The following schedules reconcile financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

(1) This non-GAAP adjustment removes the compensation expense resulting from market valuation changes in the deferred compensation plan liability and the related net gains/losses on investments designated as an economic hedge against the related liability. Amounts deferred under the deferred compensation plans are adjusted for appreciation/depreciation of investments chosen by participants. The Company believes it is useful to offset the non-operating investment income/loss realized on the hedges against the related compensation expense and remove the net impact to help readers understand the Company's core operating results and to improves comparability from period to period. | |
(2) This non-GAAP adjustment removes the impact that the Consolidated Funds have on the Company's GAAP consolidated statements of income. Specifically, the Company adds back the operating expenses and subtracts the investment income of the Consolidated Funds. The adjustment to net operating income represents the operating expenses of the Consolidated Funds, net of the elimination of related management and administrative fees. The adjustment to net income attributable to common shareholders represents the net income of the Consolidated Funds, net of redeemable non-controlling interests. The Company removes the impact of the Consolidated Funds because it believes they impact the reader's ability to understand its core operating results. | |
(3) This non-GAAP adjustment removes the impact of the gain on the sale of the High Yield-Focused Advisory Contracts. The sale of the High Yield-Focused Advisory Contracts was a nonrecurring transaction, thus, the Company believes that removing the impact of the gain helps readers understand the Company's core operating results and improves comparability period to period. | |
(4) This non-GAAP adjustment represents the net gains/losses earned on the Company's non-consolidated investment portfolio that are not designated as economic hedges of the deferred compensation plan liability, non-consolidated seed investments, and other investments. The Company believes adjusting for these non-operating income/loss items helps readers understand the Company's core operating results and improves comparability to prior years. | |
(5) The income tax expense impacts were calculated and resulted in an overall non-GAAP effective tax rate of 25.8% for 2022, and 26.0% for 2021. |
The Company does not recommend that investors consider the above non-GAAP financial measures alone, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
