Note 1.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations

SEI Investments Company (the Company), a Pennsylvania corporation, provides investment processing, fund processing, and investment management business outsourcing solutions to corporations, financial institutions, financial advisors, and affluent families in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Continental Europe, and other various locations throughout the world. Investment processing solutions utilize the Company’s proprietary software system to track investment activities in multiple types of investment accounts, including personal trust, corporate trust, institutional trust, and non-trust investment accounts, thereby allowing banks and trust companies to outsource trust and investment related activities.

The fund processing solution offers a full range of administration and distribution support services to mutual funds, collective trust funds, hedge funds, fund of funds, private equity funds and other types of investment funds. Administrative services include fund accounting, trustee and custodial support, legal support, transfer agency and shareholder servicing. Distribution support services range from market and industry insight and analysis to identifying distribution opportunities.

Investment management programs consist of Company-sponsored mutual funds, alternative investments and separate accounts. These include a series of money market, equity, fixed-income and alternative investment portfolios, primarily in the form of registered investment companies. The Company serves as the administrator and investment advisor for many of these products.

The Company is organized around its primary target markets. The Company’s business segments are: Private Banking and Trust, Investment Advisors, Enterprises, Money Managers, and Investments in New Businesses. Financial information pertaining to the Company’s business segments is included in Note 9.

Summary Financial Information and Results of Operations

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2005, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, and cash flows for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004.

Interim Financial Information

While the Company believes that the disclosures presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, these Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Principles of Consolidation

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company’s principal subsidiaries are SEI Investments Distribution Co. (SIDCO), SEI Investments Management Corporation (SIMC), and SEI Private Trust Company (SPTC). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Investment in unconsolidated affiliate is accounted for using the equity method due to the Company’s less than 50 percent ownership. The Company’s portion of the affiliate’s operating results is reflected in Equity in the earnings of unconsolidated affiliate on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations (See Note 4).

In 2004, the Company adopted the revised interpretation of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,” (FIN 46-R). FIN 46-R requires that certain variable interest entities be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional financial support from other parties. The Company does not have any investments in entities it believes are variable interest entities for which the Company is the primary beneficiary.

Page 6

Management’s Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s principal sources of revenue consist of information processing and software services; management, administration, advisory, and distribution of mutual funds; brokerage and consulting services; and other asset management products and services. Revenues from these services are recognized in the periods in which they are performed provided that pervasive evidence of an agreement exists, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. Cash received by the Company in advance of the performance of services is deferred and recognized as revenue when earned. Reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses incurred are recorded as revenue.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers investment instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents includes $79,375 and $148,974 at September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively, primarily invested in Company-sponsored open-ended money market mutual funds.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash includes cash of $654 at December 31, 2004 reserved for the payment of expenses of regulated investment companies (RICs) for which SIMC serves as the administrator. Restricted cash at December 31, 2004 also includes cash of $3,648 received for the benefit of customers of SIDCO in order to settle investment transactions for RICs. SIMC, in its capacity as the administrator and transfer agent, facilitates the payment of fund expenses and investment transactions for SIDCO customers, respectively. Corresponding liabilities are established for payment to the RICs, which is reflected in Payable to regulated investment companies on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The total balance of cash received from such parties is typically paid the following business day.

Additionally, Restricted cash at September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 includes $10,000 and $10,084, respectively, segregated in special reserve accounts for the benefit of SIDCO customers in accordance with certain rules established by the Securities and Exchange Commission for broker-dealers.

Allowances for Doubtful Accounts

The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts. The Company’s estimate is based on historical collection experience and a review of the current status of trade accounts receivable.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents, marketable securities, and trade receivables. Cash equivalents are principally invested in short-term money market funds or placed with major banks and high-credit qualified financial institutions. Cash deposits maintained with institutions are in excess of federally insured limits. Marketable securities primarily consist of those of a regulated investment company with underlying investments in federal agency mortgage-backed securities and a diversified equity investment vehicle. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to our receivables are limited due to the large number of clients and their dispersion across geographic areas. No single group or customer represents greater than ten percent of total accounts receivable.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment are retired or disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the respective period. Depreciation is provided over the estimated

Page 7

useful lives using the straight line method for financial statement purposes. The Company uses other depreciation methods, generally accelerated, for tax purposes where appropriate. Buildings and building improvements are depreciated over 25 to 39 years. Equipment, purchased software and furniture and fixtures have useful lives ranging from three to five years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight line method over the shorter of the remaining lease term or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

Marketable Securities

The Company accounts for investments in marketable securities pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 (SFAS 115), “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.” Management determines the appropriate classification of marketable securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date. Currently, the Company only has marketable securities classified as available for sale. SFAS 115 requires that debt and equity securities classified as available for sale be reported at fair value as determined by the most recently traded price for each security at the balance sheet date. Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of income taxes, are reported as a separate component of comprehensive income. The specific identification method is used to compute the realized gains and losses on marketable securities (See Note 3).

The Company evaluates the realizable value of its marketable securities on a quarterly basis. Factors considered in determining other-than-temporary declines in value include how significant the decline in value is as a percentage of the original cost, how long the market value of the investment has been less than its original cost, and the likelihood of the investment to recover its original cost. If it is determined that an other-than-temporary decline exists in a marketable security, the investment is written down to its market value and an investment loss is recorded in the Statement of Operations. No charges related to an other-than-temporary decline have been taken for the Company’s marketable securities in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2005.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company holds derivative financial instruments (derivatives) in the form of equity contracts for the purpose of hedging the market risk of certain available-for-sale securities. The Company holds such derivatives only for the purpose of hedging such risk and not for speculation. The Company formally documents its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking such hedge transactions. This process includes relating all derivatives that are designated as fair value hedges to specific assets on the balance sheet.

The Company accounts for its derivatives in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 138, “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133,” and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 149, “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” The Company records all derivatives on its balance sheet at fair value. The Company determines if the instrument qualifies as an effective fair value hedge on the date the derivative is entered into and monitors this determination on an ongoing basis. If the derivative instrument qualifies as an effective fair value hedge according to established accounting guidance, the Company will apply hedge accounting. As of September 30, 2005, hedge accounting does not apply to any of the Company’s derivatives.

The Company enters into hedging relationships such that the change in the fair value of the asset being hedged is expected to be offset by a counteracting change in the fair value of the derivative instrument. The change in the fair value of the derivative is recognized immediately in current period earnings, while the change in the fair value of the hedged asset is recorded in other comprehensive income. The Company may continue to enter into economic hedges to support certain business strategies. These economic hedges may not qualify as accounting hedges and, therefore, may cause some volatility in earnings.

The Company holds equity derivatives with a notional amount of $11,602 and an expected maturity date in 2006. The Company recognized net losses of $379 and $169 in the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, from changes in the fair value of derivative instruments. In the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, the Company recognized net losses of $293 and $193, respectively, from derivative instruments. These gains and losses are reflected in Net gain from investments on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Capitalized Software

The Company accounts for software development costs in accordance with the guidance established in Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 00-03 “Application of AICPA Statement of Position 97-2 to Arrangements That Include the Right to Use Software Stored on Another Entity’s Hardware,” and applies Statement of Position 98-1 (SOP 98-1) “Accounting for the Cost of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use,” for development costs associated with software products to be provided in a hosting environment. As required by SOP 98-1, the Company capitalizes the costs incurred during the application development stage, which includes direct external and internal costs for designing, coding, installing, and testing the software configuration and interfaces. Costs incurred during the preliminary project along with post-implementation stages are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred to maintain existing product offerings are expensed as incurred. The capitalization and ongoing assessment of recoverability of software development costs requires considerable judgment by management with respect to certain external factors, including, but not limited to, technological and economic feasibility, and estimated economic life. The Company capitalized $49,943 and $24,048 of software development costs in accordance with SOP 98-1 during the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Amortization of capitalized software development costs begins when the product is placed into service. Capitalized software development costs are amortized on a product-by-product basis using the straight-line method over the estimated economic life of the product or enhancement, which is primarily three to ten years, with a weighted average remaining life of approximately 4.4 years. Amortization expense was $1,756 and $1,614 during the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and is included in Operating and development expenses on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company determined during 2005 that software purchased from a third party vendor that was capitalized as part of the development of a new platform did not satisfy all of the expected functionality requirements. The Company has discontinued its relationship with this vendor. As a result, $3,587 of previously capitalized software development costs was written-off. Additionally, the Company removed $1,922 of unpaid liabilities to this vendor directly associated with the amount that was capitalized. As a result, the Company recorded a net charge of $1,665 to Operating and development expenses on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

Income Taxes

The Company applies the asset and liability approach to account for income taxes pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (SFAS 109), “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Under SFAS 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as current and non-current based on their characteristics.

Foreign Currency Translation

The assets and liabilities and results of operations of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are measured using the foreign subsidiary’s local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities have been translated into U.S. dollars using the rates of exchange at the balance sheet date. The results of operations have been translated into U.S. dollars at average exchange rates prevailing during the period. The resulting translation gain and loss adjustments are recorded as a separate component of comprehensive income. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations are included in the results of operations in the periods in which they occur.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The book value of current assets and current liabilities is considered to be representative of their fair value because of their short maturities. The book value of long-term debt is considered to be representative of its fair value based upon an estimation using borrowing rates currently available to the Company for bank loans with similar terms and maturities. The recorded value of these items approximates their fair value.

Earnings per Share

The Company calculates earnings per common share in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per Share.” Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the combination of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive potential common shares, such as stock options, outstanding during the period. The calculations of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 are:


	For the Three Month Period Ended September 30, 2005
	Income (Numerator)		Shares (Denominator)	Per Share Amount
Basic earnings per common share	$	49,196	99,814	$	.49

Dilutive effect of stock options		—	2,781

Diluted earnings per common share	$	49,196	102,595	$	.48


	For the Three Month Period Ended September 30, 2004
	Income (Numerator)		Shares (Denominator)	Per Share Amount
Basic earnings per common share	$	45,407	102,904	$	.44

Dilutive effect of stock options		—	2,064

Diluted earnings per common share	$	45,407	104,968	$	.43

Employee stock options to purchase 4,598,000 and 2,521,000 shares of common stock, with an average exercise price of $44.53 and $46.01, were outstanding during the three month periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, but not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share because the exercise price of the options was greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock, and the effect on diluted earnings per common share would have been anti-dilutive. The calculations of basic and diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 are:


	For the Nine Month Period Ended September 30, 2005
	Income (Numerator)		Shares (Denominator)	Per Share Amount
Basic earnings per common share	$	137,089	100,792	$	1.36

Dilutive effect of stock options		—	2,768

Diluted earnings per common share	$	137,089	103,560	$	1.32


	For the Nine Month Period Ended September 30, 2004
	Income (Numerator)		Shares (Denominator)	Per Share Amount
Basic earnings per common share	$	126,020	103,736	$	1.21

Dilutive effect of stock options		—	2,305

Diluted earnings per common share	$	126,020	106,041	$	1.19

Employee stock options to purchase 4,598,000 and 2,554,000 shares of common stock, with an average exercise price of $44.53 and $45.48, were outstanding during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, but not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share because the exercise price of the options was greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock, and the effect on diluted earnings per common share would have been anti-dilutive.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for its employee stock options based upon their intrinsic value on the date of grant pursuant to Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB 25), “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” The Company grants stock options to its employees based on the fair market value of the Company’s stock at the date of grant. Since the stock options have no intrinsic value upon grant, the Company does not record any compensation cost.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS 123), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” as amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure,” requires the presentation of the pro-forma effects of stock-based compensation on net income and earnings per common share. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value its employee stock options.

For the following pro-forma disclosures as required by SFAS 123, the estimated fair value of stock options is assumed to be amortized to expense over the stock options’ vesting period. The following table presents the pro-forma effects on net income and earnings per common share if the Company had recognized compensation expense relating to its employee stock options.

Comprehensive Income

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income” establishes standards for the reporting and presentation of comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income consists of net income and other gains and losses affecting shareholders’ equity that are excluded from net income. For the Company, comprehensive income included unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities and foreign currency translation. Components of Accumulated other comprehensive income consist of:


	Foreign Currency Translation Adjustments			Unrealized Holding Gains (Losses) on Investments			Accumulated Other Comprehensive Gains (Losses)
Beginning balance (Dec. 31, 2004)	$	5,359		$	792		$	6,151
Current period change		(1,263	)		(468	)		(1,731	)

Ending balance (Sept. 30, 2005)	$	4,096		$	324		$	4,420

Statements of Cash Flows

For purposes of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers investment instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Supplemental disclosures of cash paid/received during the nine months ended September 30 are as follows:


	2005		2004
Interest paid	$	1,496	$	2,073
Interest and dividends received		5,589		2,909
Income taxes paid		46,828		50,276

New Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R) (SFAS 123(R)), “Share-Based Payment.” SFAS 123(R) revises SFAS 123 and supersedes APB 25. SFAS 123(R) establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods and services, incurs liabilities in exchange for goods and services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. SFAS 123(R) focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions, but does not change the accounting guidance for share-based payment transactions with parties other than employees. The accounting provisions of SFAS 123(R) are effective for the annual period beginning January 1, 2006. The primary impact that SFAS 123(R) will have on the Company’s financial statements is the requirement to expense the fair value of its employee stock options rather than disclosing that information in a set of pro-forma financial statements. The Company will adopt the modified prospective application transition method in accordance with SFAS 123(R) in the first quarter of 2006. The Company is in the process of evaluating the full impact that the adoption of SFAS 123(R) will have on its financial statements. Currently, the Company does not anticipate any significant changes to its equity compensation plans.

The net unrealized holding gains at September 30, 2005 were $324 (net of income tax expense of $185) and at December 31, 2004 were $792 (net of income tax expense of $447) and are reported as a separate component of Accumulated other comprehensive gains on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Equity securities represent a portfolio of stocks managed by the Company’s unconsolidated affiliate.

During the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, the Company recognized gross realized gains from available-for-sale securities of $249 and $613, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, the Company recognized gross realized gains of $512 and $4,822, respectively. There were no realized losses recognized during 2005. Gross realized losses from available-for-sale securities in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2004 were immaterial.

At September 30, 2005, the Company had a single investment in a Company-sponsored mutual fund that has been in an unrealized loss position longer than one year. This mutual fund primarily invests in federal agency mortgage-backed securities and has a positive total return due to the amount of

Page 14

monthly dividends paid to the Company. The cost basis of this investment was $42,353 with a fair value of $41,207 and a gross unrealized loss of $1,146. The Company does not consider this unrealized loss as an other-than-temporary impairment because it is not a precipitous decline in market value.

Note 4.

Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliate

The Company has an investment in the general partnership LSV Asset Management (LSV). LSV is a registered investment advisor that provides investment advisory services to institutions, including pension plans and investment companies. LSV is currently an investment sub-adviser for a number of Company-sponsored mutual funds. The Company accounts for its interest in LSV using the equity method of accounting due to its less than 50 percent ownership. The Company’s total partnership interest in LSV was approximately 43 percent for the first nine months 2005.

For the first six months of 2004, the Company’s partnership interest in LSV was approximately 46 percent. On July 1, 2004, the Company sold a small percentage of its interest in LSV to certain other partners of LSV, reducing the partnership interest to 43 percent. Total proceeds received from the sale were $6,183 and the basis of the Company’s investment relating to the sold interest was $1,614, resulting in a total gain of $4,569. Certain partners paid the Company directly whereas certain other partners elected to finance their purchase through LSV. The Company realized $3,097 of the gain in 2004 and deferred the remaining portion of the gain of $1,472. The Company will recognize an amount of the deferred gain according to the Company’s partnership interest of the outstanding balance owed to the partnership. During the third quarter of 2005, the Company recognized $941 of the deferred gain as other income. The remaining portion of the deferred gain will be recognized by the Company when payments are received by LSV from the partners that financed their purchase. The final payments are due on January 1, 2006. The amount of the deferred gain at September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 is reflected as Deferred gain on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The remaining balance of $531 of Deferred gain at September 30, 2005 reflects the amount which the Company still has at risk of the total outstanding balance owed to the partnership.

At September 30, 2005, the Company’s investment in LSV exceeded its underlying equity in the net assets of LSV by $6,447, of which $3,385 is considered finite-lived intangible assets and the remaining $3,062 is considered goodwill embedded in the investment. The finite-lived intangible assets primarily relate to customer contracts that meet the contractual-legal criterion for recognition apart from goodwill. The Company amortizes the finite-lived intangible assets on a straight-line basis over eight and a half years. The Company recorded $328 in amortization expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Total accumulated amortization at September 30, 2005 was $436. No amortization expense was recorded in the first nine months of 2004. The Company does not record amortization expense associated with the embedded goodwill. The Company determines on an annual basis if its investment in LSV is impaired which includes the embedded goodwill. The Company’s investment in LSV is considered General and Administrative and is not included in a business segment.

The following table contains the condensed statements of operations of LSV for the three and nine months ended September 30:

Line of Credit

On September 14, 2004, the Company entered into a three-year $200,000 Credit Agreement (the Credit Facility) replacing the Company’s $200,000 364–Day Credit Agreement which expired on September 13, 2004. The Credit Facility became available immediately and expires on September 14, 2007 at which time any aggregate principal amount of loans outstanding becomes payable in full. The Credit Facility, when utilized, will accrue interest at 0.75 percent above the London Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR). There is also a commitment fee equal to 0.15 percent per annum on the daily unused portion of the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility contains various covenants, including, but not limited to, limitations of indebtedness, maintenance of fixed charge and leverage ratios, and restrictions on certain investments. Both the interest rate and commitment fee prices may increase if the Company’s leverage ratio reaches certain levels. None of these covenants negatively affect the Company’s liquidity or capital resources. The Company was in compliance with all covenants associated with the Credit Facility during the nine month period ended September 30, 2005. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2005, the Company had no borrowings under the Credit Facility.

Note 6.

Long-term Debt

On February 24, 1997, the Company signed a Note Purchase Agreement authorizing the issuance and sale of $20,000 of 7.20 percent Senior Notes, Series A, and $15,000 of 7.27 percent Senior Notes, Series B (collectively, the Notes), in a private offering with certain financial institutions. The Notes are unsecured with final maturities ranging from 10 to 15 years. The proceeds from the Notes were used to repay the outstanding balance on the Company’s line of credit at that date. The Note Purchase Agreement, which was subsequently amended, contains various covenants, including limitations on indebtedness, maintenance of minimum net worth levels, and restrictions on certain investments. In addition, the Note Purchase Agreement limits the Company’s ability to merge or consolidate, and to sell certain assets. Principal payments on the Notes are made annually from the date of issuance while interest payments are made semi-annually. The Company made its scheduled payment of $4,000 in February 2005. The remaining unpaid principal balance of the Notes at September 30, 2005 was $13,000, of which $4,000 is classified as current.

On June 26, 2001, the Company entered into a $25,000 Term Loan Agreement (the Agreement) with a separate lending institution which expires on March 31, 2006 and is payable in 17 equal quarterly installments. On August 2, 2001, the Company borrowed the full $25,000. The Agreement provides the Company the option to have interest accrued at either the lower of the Prime rate or one and thirty-five hundredths of one percent above LIBOR. The Agreement contains various covenants, including limitations on indebtedness and restrictions on certain investments. None of these covenants negatively affect the Company’s liquidity or capital resources. The Company made its scheduled payments during 2005 for a total of $4,167. The remaining unpaid principal balance of the Agreement at September 30, 2005 was $2,778, which is classified as current. The interest rate being applied at September 30, 2005 was 4.84%.

The Company was in compliance with all covenants associated with its long-term debt during the nine month period ended September 30, 2005.

Note 7.

Common Stock Buyback

The Company’s Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of the Company’s common stock on the open market or through private transactions of up to an aggregate of $1,003,365. Through September 30, 2005, a total of 117,677,000 shares at an aggregate cost of $966,291 have been purchased and retired. The Company purchased 3,533,000 shares at a total cost of $129,032 during the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

The Company immediately retires its common stock when purchased. Upon retirement, the Company reduces Capital in excess of par value for the average capital per share outstanding and the remainder is charged against Retained earnings. If the Company reduces its Retained earnings to zero, any subsequent purchases of common stock will be charged entirely to Capital in excess of par value.

Note 8.

Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company is party to various claims and legal proceedings. On September 30, 2004, SIDCO was named as a defendant in a putative consolidated amended class action complaint filed in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland titled “Stephen Carey v. Pilgrim Baxter & Associates, LTD, et. al.” This complaint is purportedly made on behalf of all persons that purchased or held PBHG mutual funds during the period from November 1, 1998 to November 13, 2003 and relates generally to various market timing practices allegedly permitted by the PBHG Funds. The complaint alleges that SIDCO was the named distributor/underwriter from November 1998 until July 2001 for various PBHG funds in which market timing allegedly occurred during that period. While the outcome of this litigation is uncertain, SIDCO believes that it has valid defenses to plaintiffs’ claims and intends to defend the lawsuits vigorously. The Company has not made any provision relating to this legal proceeding.

In April, 2005, the Company and a subsidiary were named as defendants in a complaint (the “Vermeg Complaint”) filed by Vermeg Services S.A.R.L., a Tunisian company, in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The subsidiary of the Company terminated a software license and services contract with Vermeg in March, 2005 citing failure of the Vermeg software to meet acceptance and performance criteria under the contract. The Vermeg Complaint seeks monetary damages which it alleges arose out of the purported breach of such contract by the Company and its subsidiary as well as various other relief arising from the alleged misappropriation of Vermeg software and related information that Vermeg alleges is proprietary to Vermeg. While the outcome of this litigation is uncertain, the Company and its subsidiary believe that they have valid defenses to plaintiff’s claims and intend to defend the lawsuit vigorously. The Company has not made any provision relating to this legal proceeding.

Note 9.

Income Taxes

On October 22, 2004, the President signed the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (the Act). The Act creates a temporary incentive for U.S. corporations to repatriate accumulated income earned abroad by providing an 85 percent dividends received deduction for certain dividends from controlled foreign corporations. The Company has completed an assessment of the impact of repatriating earnings that have not been remitted to the U.S. according to the provisions of the Act. Based upon the assessment, there will not be any repatriating of earnings of controlled foreign corporations.

Consolidated Summary

Consolidated revenues increased $20.7 million, or 12 percent, to $193.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2004. For the nine month period ended, revenues increased $60.1 million, or 12 percent, to $569.4 million compared to the prior year period. Income from operations decreased $1.3 million, or two percent, to $53.3 million and operating margin decreased to 28 percent from 32 percent for the three month period. For the nine month period, income from operations declined slightly to $155.3 million and operating margin decreased to 27 percent from 31 percent. In the three month period, net income increased $3.8 million, or eight percent, to $49.2 million and diluted earnings per share increased to $.48 per share as compared to $.43 per share a year ago, an increase of 12 percent. In the nine month period, net income increased $11.1 million, or nine percent, to $137.1 million and diluted earnings per share increased to $1.32 per share as compared to $1.19 per share a year ago, an increase of 11 percent. In our opinion, the following items had a significant impact on our financial results for the three and nine month periods:

•

The increase in revenues in both comparable periods was primarily driven by increased asset-based fees in our Investment Advisors, Enterprises and Investments in New Businesses segments due to capital market appreciation in 2004 and 2005. Rising capital markets increased the value of assets we manage for our existing clients, causing our base revenues to increase.

•

New sales in our Enterprises, Money Managers and Investments in New Businesses segments also contributed to our revenue growth. We believe these sales of new business were due to a growing acceptance of our new and existing strategies and solutions in our target markets.

•

Non-recurring investment processing project fees in our Private Banking and Trust segment increased $6.0 million during the first nine months of 2005 compared to the prior year due to conversions of new bank clients, mergers and the deconversion of an existing client.

•

Recurring investment processing revenues in our Private Banking and Trust segment increased $4.3 million during the first nine months of 2005 compared to the prior year due primarily to new sales of our BSP solutions; however, this increase was partially offset by the loss of a significant large bank client of our ASP solutions.

•

Fund processing fees in the Private Banking and Trust segment decreased $11.9 million during the first nine months of 2005 compared to the prior year primarily from the loss of fund processing bank clients. Certain of these client losses, however, caused a corresponding reduction in direct fund processing expenses, minimizing the effect on our margins.

Page 22

•

In the Investment Advisors and Enterprises segments, revenues during the nine month period in 2005 were affected by the recognition on a gross basis of $7.1 million of third party advisory fees related to our separate account program and pass-through fees associated with our 401(k) recordkeeping offering beginning in mid-2004. In the prior year comparable period, these revenues were reported net of the costs. This had the effect of increasing revenues and expenses by the same amount. The recognition of these revenues and expenses had no impact on the comparative figures for the three month periods because the accounting treatment was consistent between these timeframes.

•

We continued to make significant expenditures for the development of our Global Wealth Platform as we progress through the development phase of this platform. The majority of these costs are eligible for capitalization; however, a portion is not eligible and is expensed as incurred. We capitalized $49.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and $24.0 million in the comparable period of 2004 in software development costs for this platform. We expect to incur significant development costs throughout the remainder of 2005 and 2006.

•

In the first quarter, it was determined that software purchased from a third party vendor intended for use in our Global Wealth Platform did not satisfy all of the expected functionality requirements. Prior capitalized development costs and associated unpaid liabilities were written-off, resulting in a net charge against earnings of $1.7 million during the nine month period. This charge impacted all of our business segments.

•

Consolidated operating margins declined in both periods due to increased personnel and other operating costs for investment management operations and business outsourcing solutions.

•

During the third quarter, the Money Manager segment lost the domestic mutual fund accounting component of a client relationship. The loss of this business will have little impact on the fourth quarter and any profit impact in 2006 is expected to be offset by new business within the segment.

•

Net income during both periods was primarily boosted by our investment in LSV. LSV recorded significant growth in revenues and earnings, mainly due to capital market appreciation and new sales. We currently have a 43 percent interest in LSV. Our earnings from LSV grew $9.1 million, or 77 percent, in the three month period and $22.3 million, or 71 percent, in the nine month period as compared to the prior year periods.

•

We continued our stock repurchase program during 2005 and purchased approximately 1.1 million shares at an average price of approximately $37 per share in the third quarter and approximately 3.5 million shares, also at an average price of approximately $37 per share, in the nine month period. This caused our diluted earnings per common share to grow at a faster rate than our earnings.

Increased investment processing fees from the addition of a large investment processing client and cross sales to existing clients.

Operating margins decreased to 35 percent, as compared to 43 percent in the three month period and to 36 percent, as compared to 40 percent in the nine month period. Operating income decreased by $6.1 million, or 21 percent, in the three month period and $10.6 million, or 12 percent, in the nine month period and was primarily affected by:

•

Increased non-capitalized investment spending associated with the development of our Global Wealth Platform;

Non-recurring costs in 2004 associated with the relocation of our data center processing facility.

Investment Advisors

Revenues increased $7.2 million, or 16 percent, in the three month period and $19.0 million, or 14 percent, in the nine month period ended September 30, 2005 and were primarily affected by:

•

Increased investment management fees from existing clients due to the appreciation of assets under management caused by capital market appreciation during 2004 and 2005; and

•

The recognition on a gross basis of $5.4 million in the first half of 2005 of pass-through revenue associated with our 401(k) recordkeeping offering and third party advisory fees related to our separate account program. The recognition of these revenues had no impact on the comparative figures for the three month periods because the accounting treatment was consistent between these timeframes.

Operating margins remained flat at 54 percent in the three month period and declined to 54 percent, as compared to 55 percent in the nine month period. Operating income increased by $4.0 million, or 16 percent, in the three month period and $8.5 million, or 12 percent, in the nine month period and was primarily affected by:

•

An increase in revenues; and

•

Non-recurring, estimated costs in the first quarter of 2004 of $1.2 million in connection with the migration of client data to a new platform for processing third party mutual funds; partially offset by

•

•

Increased personnel costs related to investment management operations;

•

The write-off of previously capitalized development costs for our Global Wealth Platform in the first quarter of 2005; and

•

The recognition of pass-through revenues and expenses mentioned above, which had the effect of increasing revenues and expenses by the same amount and negatively impacting operating margin. The recognition of these revenues and expenses had no impact on the comparative figures for the three month periods because the accounting treatment was consistent between these timeframes.

Enterprises

Revenues increased $3.7 million, or 20 percent, in the three month period and $12.3 million, or 24 percent, in the nine month period ended September 30, 2005 and were primarily affected by:

•

Asset funding from new sales of our retirement solutions, mainly to large corporations;

•

Increased assets under management from existing clients caused by capital market appreciation during 2004 and 2005; and

•

The recognition on a gross basis of $1.7 million in the first half of 2005 of pass-through revenue associated with our 401(k) recordkeeping offering in mid-2004. The recognition of these revenues had no impact on the comparative figures for the three month periods because the accounting treatment was consistent between these timeframes.

Increased spending on personnel and other operating costs to support new business; partially offset by

•

One-time operational costs recognized in the third quarter of 2004; and

Other

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses primarily consist of corporate overhead costs and other costs not directly attributable to a reportable business segment. The increase in these expenses was primarily due to general overhead costs and resources and associated expenses for our corporate compliance program, some of which were non-recurring and related to new regulations of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

Other Income

Other income on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations consists of the following:


	For the Three Months Ended September 30,						Percent Change		For the Nine Months Ended September 30,						Percent Change

Other		941			3,689		(74	%)		941			3,689		(74	%)

Total other income, net	$	23,377		$	16,674		40	%	$	59,546		$	41,354		44	%

Equity in the earnings of unconsolidated affiliate on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations includes our less than 50 percent ownership in the general partnership of LSV (See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). The increase in LSV’s net earnings was due to an increase in assets under management and performance fees. The increase in assets managed by LSV was due to market appreciation and sales of new business.

Net gain from investments consists of the following:


	For the Three Months Ended September 30,						For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2005			2004			2005			2004
Realized gain from sales of marketable securities	$	249		$	608		$	512		$	4,815
Increase (decrease) in fair value of derivative financial instruments		(379	)		(169	)		(293	)		(193	)
Other realized gains (losses)		—			—			—			108

Net gain (loss) on investments	$	(130	)	$	439		$	219		$	4,730

Derivative financial instruments are used to minimize the price risk associated with changes in the fair value of our seed investments in new investment management programs. These derivative financial investments did not qualify for hedge accounting under current accounting rules. As a result, changes in the fair value of these derivative financial instruments were recorded in current period earnings whereas the change in the fair value of the hedged asset will be realized upon sale in future period earnings. Management’s decision to enter into derivative financial instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting may cause volatility in quarterly earnings (See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

Interest income is earned based upon the amount of cash that is invested daily. Fluctuations in interest income recognized for one period in relation to another is due to changes in the average cash balance invested for the period and/or changes in interest rates. The increase in interest income in the nine month period of 2005 was primarily due to an increase in interest rates and investments of cash into higher-yielding investment vehicles.

Interest expense is directly attributable to our long-term debt and other borrowings. Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 decreased over the comparable period mainly due to the lower principal balances of debt outstanding.

Income Taxes

Our effective tax rates were 36.20 percent and 36.25 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, our effective rates were 35.80 percent and 36.25 percent, respectively. The decrease in effective rates in both periods was due to a favorable resolution of a routine audit conducted by the Internal Revenue Service on previously filed tax returns.

Liquidity and Capital Resources


	For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2005			2004
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	142,955		$	119,446
Net cash used in investing activities		(73,695	)		(10,468	)
Net cash used in financing activities		(152,517	)		(121,160	)

Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents		(83,257	)		(12,182	)
Cash and cash equivalents, beginning of period		216,966			199,953

Cash and cash equivalents, end of period	$	133,709		$	187,771

Cash requirements and liquidity needs are primarily funded through our cash flow from operations and our capacity for additional borrowing. We currently have a Credit Facility that provides for borrowings of up to $200.0 million. The availability of the Credit Facility is subject to the compliance with certain covenants set forth in the agreement. At September 30, 2005, our unused sources of liquidity consisted of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $133.7 million and the full amount available through the Credit Facility of $200.0 million.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $23.5 million during the first nine months in 2005 as compared to 2004 due to the increase in net income and non-cash items, which primarily consists of additional deferred taxes. The increase in deferred taxes was due to the higher amount of software development costs eligible for capitalization and currently deductible for tax purposes.

Net cash used in investing activities primarily includes the capitalization of costs incurred in developing computer software, purchases and sales of available-for-sale securities, and capital expenditures. Net cash used in investing activities increased $63.2 million during the first nine months in 2005 as compared to the prior year period. As was the case in the past several years, we have continued to invest in the development of our new Global Wealth Platform. Many of these expenditures in prior years were related to research and design and, therefore, not eligible for capitalization. As we are currently in the application development stage of the project, a larger portion of our expenditures are for development, rather than research and design, and are eligible for capitalization under accounting rules. Capitalized software development costs were $49.9 million in 2005 as compared to $24.0 million in 2004.

In 2005, we had $11.3 million in net purchases of available-for-sale securities versus $16.1 million in net redemptions of available-for-sale securities in 2004. Purchases of available-for-sale securities in 2005 mainly comprised additional investments made into a company-sponsored mutual fund for regulatory compliance purposes. Capital expenditures in 2005 primarily include computer systems and equipment to support our ongoing operations. During the third quarter, we began construction of an additional building at our corporate headquarters. The total cost of the expansion is estimated to be at least $15.0 million and is expected to be completed by the second half of 2006.

Net cash used in financing activities primarily includes principal payments of our debt, the repurchase of our common stock and dividend payments. Principal payments on our long-term debt were $8.2 million in 2005 and $11.8 million in 2004. Our long-term debt is subject to various covenants contained in each lending agreement. Currently, these covenants do not negatively affect our liquidity.

Our Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of our common stock of up to $1.0 billion. Through October 31, 2005, we repurchased approximately 117.7 million shares of our common stock at a cost of $966.3 million and had $37.1 million of authorization remaining for the purchase of our common stock under this program. Currently, there is no expiration date for our common stock repurchase program.

Cash dividends paid were $21.3 million or $.21 per share in the first nine months of 2005 and $19.7 million or $.19 per share in the first nine months of 2004. Our Board of Directors intends to declare future dividends on a semi-annual basis.

We have no off-balance sheet financing arrangements or transactions with structured finance and special purpose entities. Our off-balance sheet commitments are generally limited to future payments under non-cancelable operating leases for facilities, data processing equipment, and software and other maintenance agreements.

Page 27

We believe our operating cash flow, available borrowing capacity, and existing cash and cash equivalents should provide adequate funds for continuing operations; continued investment in new products and equipment; our common stock repurchase program; expansion of our corporate campus; future dividend payments; and principal and interest payments on our long-term debt.

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements. Certain information contained in this discussion is or may be considered forward-looking. Forward-looking statements relate to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. Forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that involve certain risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control or are subject to change. Although we believe our assumptions are reasonable, they could be inaccurate. Our actual future revenues and income could differ materially from our expected results. We have no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements.

Among the risks and uncertainties which may affect our future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments are those risks described in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K. These risks include the following:

•

changes in capital markets that may affect our revenues and earnings;

•

changes in currency exchange rates;

•

changes in interest rates;

•

the performance of the funds we manage;

•

consolidation within our target markets, including consolidations between banks and other financial institutions;

•

systems and technology risks;

•

development risks associated with the introduction of new products and services to our clients and target markets;

•

operational risks associated with the processing of investment transactions;

•

third party approval of our investment products with advisors affiliated with independent broker-dealers or other networks;

•

retention of senior management personnel; and

•

the effect of extensive governmental regulation.

The Company and our clients are subject to extensive governmental regulation. Our various business activities are conducted through entities which may be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as an investment adviser, a broker-dealer, a transfer agent, an investment company or with the United States Office of Thrift Supervision or state banking authorities as a trust company. Our broker-dealer is also a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers and is subject to its rules and oversight. In addition, various subsidiaries of the Company are registered with, and subject to the oversight of, regulatory authorities primarily in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland. Many of our clients are subject to substantial regulation by federal and state banking, securities or insurance authorities or the Department of Labor. Compliance with existing and future regulations and responding to and complying with recent regulatory activity affecting broker-dealers, investment companies and their service providers could have a significant impact on us. We have responded and are currently responding to various regulatory examinations, inquiries and requests. One of these regulatory requests and inquiries relate to the payment by certain of our subsidiaries of expenses related to the marketing and distribution of shares of certain mutual fund clients of our fund administration and distribution business. As a result of these examinations, inquiries and requests, we are generally implementing changes and reviewing our compliance procedures and business operations. These activities resulted in an increased level of general and administrative costs that continued during the nine month period ended September 30, 2005.

We offer investment and banking products that also are subject to regulation by the federal and state securities and banking authorities, as well as non-United States regulatory authorities, where applicable. Existing or future regulations that affect these products could lead to a reduction in sales of these products. Directed brokerage payment arrangements offered by us are also subject to the SEC and other federal regulatory authorities. Changes in the regulation of directed brokerage or soft dollar payment arrangements or strategic decisions of our clients regarding these arrangements could affect sales of some services, primarily our brokerage services.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Interest Rate Risk – Our exposure to changes in interest rates primarily relates to our investment portfolio and long-term debt obligations. Our excess cash is principally invested in short-term, highly liquid financial instruments, mainly money market funds, with a substantial portion of such investments having initial maturities of three months or less. Our investment portfolio also includes some long-term fixed-income mutual funds, principally invested in federal government agency securities. We place our investments in financial instruments that meet high credit quality standards. A portion of our long-term debt is based upon a variable rate which renews every three months. While changes in interest rates could decrease interest income or increase interest expense, we do not believe that we have a material exposure to changes in interest rates. We do not undertake any specific actions to cover our exposure to interest rate risk and are not a party to any interest rate risk management transactions.

Concentration of Credit Risk – Financial instruments which potentially expose us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents, marketable securities and trade receivables. Cash deposits are maintained with financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits. Cash equivalents are principally invested in short-term money market funds or placed with major banks and high credit qualified financial institutions. Marketable securities primarily consist of those of a regulated investment company with underlying investments in federal agency mortgage-backed securities and a diversified equity investment vehicle. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to our receivables are limited due to the large number of clients and their dispersion across geographic areas. No single customer represents greater than ten percent of total accounts receivable.

Foreign Currency Risk – We transact business in the local currencies of various foreign countries, principally Canada, Ireland, the United Kingdom and South Korea. The total of all of our foreign operations accounts for approximately 11 percent of total consolidated revenues. Also, most of our foreign operations match local currency revenues with local currency costs. Due to these reasons, we do not currently hedge against foreign operations.

Price Risk – We are exposed to price risk associated with changes in the fair value of investments in marketable securities relating to the startup of new pooled investment offerings. The length of time that our funds remain invested in these new pooled investment offerings is dependent on client subscriptions. We will redeem our investments as clients subscribe to these new investment offerings. To provide protection against potential fair value changes for these investments, we have entered into various derivative financial instruments. As of September 30, 2005, we held derivative financial instruments with a notional amount of $11.6 million with terms of less than one year. Changes in the fair value of the derivative financial instruments are recognized in current period earnings, whereas, the change in the fair value of the investment is recorded on the balance sheet in other comprehensive income. Therefore, changes in the fair value of the derivative financial instrument and changes in the fair value of the investment are not recognized through earnings in the same period. We did not enter into or hold any derivative financial instruments for trading purposes during 2005 or 2004.

Earnings include losses of $293 thousand and $193 thousand in the nine month periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, relating to changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments. The aggregate effect of a hypothetical ten percent change in the fair value of our investments would be:


Investment	Hypothetical Change In Value
Mutual Funds	$	4,130
Equities		1,160

	$	5,290

In consideration of the hypothetical change in value, our derivative financial instruments related to equities would substantially offset the change in fair value of the equity securities.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures.

(a)	Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. A controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls systems are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

(b)	Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2005 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings.

On September 30, 2004, SIDCO was named as a defendant in a putative consolidated amended class action complaint (the “PBHG Complaint”) filed in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland titled “Stephen Carey v. Pilgrim Baxter & Associates, LTD, et. al.” The PBHG Complaint is purportedly made on behalf of all persons that purchased or held PBHG mutual funds during the period from November 1, 1998 to November 13, 2003 and relates generally to various market timing practices allegedly permitted by the PBHG Funds. The suit names as defendants some 36 persons and entities, including various persons and entities affiliated with Pilgrim Baxter & Associates, Ltd., various PBHG Funds, various alleged market timers, various alleged facilitating brokers, various clearing brokers, various banks that allegedly financed the market timing activities, various distributors/underwriters and others. The PBHG Complaint alleges that SIDCO was the named distributor/underwriter from November 1998 until July 2001 for various PBHG funds in which market timing allegedly occurred during that period. The PBHG Complaint generally alleges that the prospectus for certain PBHG funds made misstatements and omissions concerning market timing practices in PBHG funds. The PBHG Complaint alleges that SIDCO violated Sections 11 and 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and Sections 34(b) and 36(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, and that SIDCO breached its fiduciary duties, engaged in constructive fraud and aided and abetted the breach by others of their fiduciary duties. The PBHG Complaint does not name SIDCO or any of its affiliates as a market timer, facilitating or clearing broker or financier of market timers. The PBHG Complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, disgorgement and restitution. While the outcome of this litigation is uncertain, SIDCO believes that it has valid defenses to plaintiffs’ claims and intends to defend the lawsuits vigorously.

Item 2.
