                             The John Nuveen Company

         Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements



The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements
give effect to the acquisition of NWQ Investment Management Company, Inc. by The
John Nuveen Company (the "Company"). The unaudited pro forma condensed
consolidated balance sheet was prepared as if the transaction had occurred on
June 30, 2002. The unaudited condensed consolidated statement of income for the
twelve months ended December 31, 2001 was prepared as if the transaction had
occurred on January 1, 2001. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated
statement of income for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was prepared as if
the transaction had occurred on January 1, 2002.

The pro forma adjustments are applied to the historical consolidated financial
statements of the Company, using the purchase method of accounting and
information available. Under purchase accounting, the acquisition cost of such
ownership interest will be allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired
based on their relative fair value as of the closing date of the transaction,
with any excess of the acquisition cost over fair value of the assets acquired
less the fair value of the liabilities assumed recorded as goodwill. The final
allocations may be different from the amounts reflected herein. However,
management of the Company believes that any adjustments will not have a material
financial impact.

This pro forma financial information is presented for illustrative purposes
only. It is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or financial
position which would have been reported had the acquisition actually occurred on
the dates indicated, above, nor is it necessarily indicative of the Company's
future financial results of operations.

                             THE JOHN NUVEEN COMPANY

              NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF INCOME

                                   (UNAUDITED)


Elimination adjustments are summarized as follows:

(1)  Adjustment to reflect the elimination of compensation expense related to
     historical retention arrangements between the previous Parent (Old Mutual)
     and NWQ.

(2)  Adjustment reflects the elimination of amortization of the identified
     intangible assets. These intangible assets were not part of the acquired
     assets of NWQ.

(3)  Adjustment to reflect the elimination of license fees paid to an affiliate
     of the previous parent.

(4)  Adjustment to reflect the elimination of interest expense associated with a
     note payable with an affiliate of the previous parent. This note was not
     part of the purchase of NWQ.

Proforma adjustments to give effect to the acquisition are summarized as
follows:

(5)  Adjustment to reflect increase in compensation expense related to new
     retention arrangements with key management.

(6)  Adjustment reflects the amortization of the identified intangible assets
     arising from the transaction over the assets appropriate estimated useful
     lives. Pursuant to SFAS 142, Goodwill associated with the transaction is
     not amortized.

(7)  Interest income and interest expense have been adjusted to reflect the
     lower cash balances available for investing and the debt incurred pursuant
     to the transaction. The interest rate on the debt incurred is variable
     based on the monthly LIBOR rate. If this rate were to increase 0.125%, the
     annual effect on interest expense would be an estimated increase of
     $312,500.

(8)  All pro forma adjustments and were combined with the net loss as reported
     and tax effected at the appropriate rate.
