WEST PALM BEACH, FL, November 1, 2021 — Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (NYSE: AMG) today reported its financial and operating results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Jay C. Horgen, President and Chief Executive Officer of AMG, said:
“AMG reported growth of 26% in Adjusted EBITDA relative to the year-ago quarter, driven by strong Affiliate investment performance and excellent execution in new investments. Net client cash flows were positive, reflecting strong demand for both private market and liquid alternative strategies during the quarter. Looking ahead, we continue to actively expand our exposure to areas of secular growth, including illiquid alternatives, specialty fixed income, wealth management, Asia, and ESG, through additional investments in new Affiliates — and through supporting the growth of existing Affiliates leveraging AMG's strategic resources.
“Recently, we announced a partnership with Abacus Capital Group, an independent real estate investment manager with an impressive 17-year track record of value-add real estate investing, further enhancing our participation in private markets. With the addition of Abacus, we now have six dedicated private markets Affiliates managing more than $110 billion in aggregate client assets across more than 30 strategies. Abacus is our fourth new Affiliate investment this year, demonstrating the appeal of AMG's partnership solution set and our position as the partner of choice to high-quality independent firms around the world.
“In addition, we continue to invest in our existing Affiliates' opportunities, and in strategic support and distribution capabilities to further augment their growth. With our strong financial profile and free cash flow generation, and unique competitive advantages developed over our three-decade track record as a partner to independent firms, we are confident in our ability to continue to compound our earnings growth and create meaningful shareholder value through the consistent execution of our strategy over time."

Notes
(1) Earnings per share (diluted) adjusts for the dilutive effect of the potential issuance of incremental shares of our common stock. We had junior convertible securities outstanding during the periods presented and are required to apply the if-converted method to these securities in our calculation of Earnings per share (diluted). Under the if-converted method, shares that are issuable upon conversion are deemed outstanding, regardless of whether the securities are contractually convertible into our common stock at that time. For this calculation, the interest expense (net of tax) attributable to these dilutive securities is added back to Net income (controlling interest), reflecting the assumption that the securities have been converted. Issuable shares for these securities and related interest expense are excluded from the calculation if an assumed conversion would be anti-dilutive to diluted earnings per share.
The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

(2) As supplemental information, we provide non-GAAP performance measures of Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest), Economic net income (controlling interest) and Economic earnings per share. Management utilizes these non-GAAP performance measures to assess our performance before our share of certain non-cash expenses and to improve comparability between periods.
Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest) represents our performance before our share of interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, impairments, certain Affiliate equity expenses, gains and losses on general partner and seed capital investments, and adjustments to our contingent payment arrangements. We believe that many investors use this non-GAAP measure when assessing the financial performance of companies in the investment management industry.
Under our Economic net income (controlling interest) definition, we add to Net income (controlling interest) our share of pre-tax intangible amortization and impairments (including the portion attributable to equity method investments in Affiliates), deferred taxes related to intangible assets, and other economic items which include non-cash imputed interest (principally related to the accounting for convertible securities and contingent payment arrangements), certain Affiliate equity expenses, and gains and losses on general partner and seed capital investments. Economic net income (controlling interest) is used by management and our Board of Directors as our principal performance benchmark, including as one of the measures for aligning executive compensation with stockholder value.
Economic earnings per share represents Economic net income (controlling interest) divided by the Average shares outstanding (adjusted diluted). In this calculation, the potential share issuance in connection with our junior convertible securities is measured using a “treasury stock” method. Under this method, only the net number of shares of common stock equal to the value of the junior convertible securities in excess of par, if any, are deemed to be outstanding. We believe the inclusion of net shares under a treasury stock method best reflects the benefit of the increase in available capital resources (which could be used to repurchase shares of common stock) that occurs when these securities are converted and we are relieved of our debt obligation.
The following table provides a reconciliation of Average shares outstanding (adjusted diluted):

These non-GAAP performance measures are provided in addition to, but not as a substitute for, Net income (controlling interest), Earnings per share or other GAAP performance measures. For additional information on our non-GAAP measures, see our Annual and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-K and 10-Q, respectively, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
