• | 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 and market appreciation of assets. The market volatility occurring during the second half of 2015 negatively impacted our asset-based fee revenues and partially offset our revenue growth. |
• | Sales events, net of client losses, during fourth-quarter 2015 totaled approximately $27.2 million and are expected to generate net annualized recurring revenues of approximately $24.6 million when contract values are fully realized. For the year ended 2015, sales events, net of client losses, totaled approximately $124.0 million and are expected to generate new annualized recurring revenues of approximately $99.7 million when contract values are fully realized. |
• | Our average assets under management, excluding LSV, increased $14.3 billion, or eight percent, to $183.4 billion, as compared to $169.1 billion during the fourth-quarter 2014 (see attached Average Asset Balances schedules for further details). |
• | Our average assets under administration increased $35.5 billion, or ten percent, to $407.9 billion in the fourth-quarter 2015, as compared to $372.4 billion during the fourth-quarter 2014 (see attached Average Asset Balances schedules for further details). |
• | Our earnings from LSV decreased by $3.2 million, or nine percent, to $32.1 million in fourth-quarter 2015 as compared to $35.3 million in fourth-quarter 2014. The reduction in earnings was due to a decline in assets under management from market volatility, reduced performance fees and increased personnel expenses of LSV. |
• | Amortization expense related to the SEI Wealth PlatformSM increased to $10.8 million during the fourth-quarter 2015 as compared to $10.0 million during the fourth-quarter 2014 due to continued enhancements. |
• | Although revenues increased in our Investment Advisors and Investment Managers segments, higher personnel and other operating costs mainly related to servicing new and existing clients and increased technology development spending in these segments caused operating margins to decline. |
• | Stock-based compensation expense during the fourth-quarter 2015 increased $1.9 million primarily from the acceleration of expense recognition for stock options that achieved performance vesting targets earlier than originally estimated. |
• | Corporate overhead expenses during the fourth-quarter 2015 include $1.6 million in costs attributable to the relocation of our London operations to a new facility. The cost of the new facility will be approximately $700 thousand higher per quarter than our previous facility. We expect this additional amount to be recognized in Corporate overhead expenses. |
• | Our effective tax rates were 29.3 percent in fourth-quarter 2015 and 33.3 percent in fourth-quarter 2014. The decrease in our tax rate was primarily related to a state tax petition related to prior years which resulted in a net refund of $3.7 million. |
• | We repurchased 1.5 million shares of our common stock for $77.5 million during the fourth-quarter 2015. |
