U.S. GAAP
This section discusses the financial results of the company as presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Revenue
Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $159.6 million, an increase of $5.4 million, or 3.5%, from $154.2 million for the third quarter of 2021. The change was primarily due to:
•An increase of $3.1 million in investment advisory and administration fees from open-end funds attributable to higher average assets under management; and
•An increase of $2.2 million in performance fees from certain institutional accounts.
Expenses
Expenses for the fourth quarter of 2021 were $79.1 million, a decrease of $6.8 million, or 7.9%, from $86.0 million for the third quarter of 2021. The change was primarily due to:
•Lower employee compensation and benefits of $9.7 million, primarily due to a decrease in incentive compensation to reflect the actual amount to be paid;
•An increase in distribution and service fees of $725,000, primarily due to higher average assets under management in U.S. open-end funds; and
•Higher general and administrative expenses of $2.2 million, primarily due to an increase in travel and entertainment expenses of $492,000, higher hosted and sponsored conferences of $419,000 and an increase in recruitment fees of $331,000.
Operating Margin
Operating margin was 50.4% for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared with 44.3% for the third quarter of 2021. Operating margin represents the ratio of operating income to revenue.

Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2021 was 21.3%, compared with 26.0% for the third quarter of 2021. The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2021 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state, local and foreign income taxes as well as limitations on the deductibility of executive compensation. These were partially offset by the cumulative effect of a change in the company's effective tax rate for the year and certain discrete tax items, the most significant being the reversal of certain liabilities associated with unrecognized tax benefits. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2021 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state, local and foreign income taxes as well as limitations on the deductibility of executive compensation. These were partially offset by the cumulative effect of a change in the company’s estimated effective tax rate for the year.

Investment Performance as of December 31, 2021
_________________________
(1) Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Outperformance is determined by comparing the annualized investment performance of each investment strategy to the performance of specified reference benchmarks. Investment performance in excess of the performance of the benchmark is considered outperformance. The investment performance calculation of each investment strategy is based on all active accounts and investment models pursuing similar investment objectives. For accounts, actual investment performance is measured gross of fees and net of withholding taxes. For investment models, for which actual investment performance does not exist, the investment performance of a composite of accounts pursuing comparable investment objectives is used as a proxy for actual investment performance. The performance of the specified reference benchmark for each account and investment model is measured net of withholding taxes, where applicable.

Reconciliations of U.S. GAAP to As Adjusted Financial Results
Management believes that use of the following as adjusted (non-GAAP) financial results provides greater transparency into the company's operating performance. In addition, these as adjusted financial results are used to prepare the company's internal management reports, which are used in evaluating its business.
While management believes that these as adjusted financial results are useful in evaluating operating performance, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
