NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PREPARATION.

T. Rowe Price Group Inc. derives its consolidated revenues and net income primarily from investment advisory services that its subsidiaries provide to individual and institutional investors in the T. Rowe Price U.S. mutual funds (“U.S. mutual funds”), separately managed accounts, subadvised funds, and other T. Rowe Price products. The other T. Rowe Price products include: collective investment trusts, open-ended investment products offered to investors outside the U.S., and products offered through variable annuity life insurance plans in the U.S. We also provide certain investment advisory clients with related administrative services, including distribution, mutual fund transfer agent, accounting, and shareholder services; participant recordkeeping and transfer agent services for defined contribution retirement plans; brokerage; and trust services.

Investment advisory revenues depend largely on the total value and composition of assets under our management. Accordingly, fluctuations in financial markets and in the composition of assets under management impact our revenues and results of operations.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These principles require the use of estimates and reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of our results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Actual results may vary from our estimates.

The unaudited interim financial information contained in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in our 2019 Annual Report.

NEW ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE.

We adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-15 — Intangibles—Goodwill and Other— Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract on January 1, 2020 using the prospective method of adoption. This update required implementation costs incurred in cloud computing arrangements to be deferred and recognized over the term of the hosting arrangement. A hosting arrangement is an agreement that allows customers, like us, to access and use software on an as-needed basis without having possession of the software. Beginning on January 1, 2020, we are required to defer such qualifying implementation costs. As of March 31, 2020, we capitalized an immaterial amount of implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement. Accordingly, the adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated balance sheets or our consolidated statements of income.

NEWLY ISSUED BUT NOT YET ADOPTED ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE

We have considered all other newly issued accounting guidance that is applicable to our operations and the preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated statements, including those we have not yet adopted. We do not believe that any such guidance has or will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

U.S. ECONOMIC RELIEF LEGISLATION

On March 27, 2020, the U.S. enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security ("CARES") Act. The CARES Act provides economic relief to eligible businesses and individuals impacted by the novel coronavirus pandemic. We are currently assessing what impact, if any, the CARES Act’s provisions will have on our financial position and results of operations, but we do not believe the impact will be material.

NOTE 3 – INVESTMENTS.

The carrying values of our investments that are not part of the consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products are as follows:



(in millions)	3/31/2020		12/31/2019
Investments held at fair value
T. Rowe Price investment products	$	1,088.1	$	1,402.9
T. Rowe Price investment products designated as an economic hedge of supplemental savings plan liability	500.0		561.1
Investment partnerships and other investments	105.5		99.7
Equity method investments
T. Rowe Price investment products	864.5		705.6
26% interest in UTI Asset Management Company Limited (India)	166.8		164.5
Investment partnerships and other investments	5.4		5.0
U.S. Treasury note	1.0		1.0
Total	$	2,731.3	$	2,939.8

The investment partnerships are carried at fair value using net asset value (“NAV”) per share as a practical expedient. Our interests in these partnerships are generally not redeemable and are subject to significant restrictions on transferability. The underlying investments of these partnerships have contractual terms through 2029, though we may receive distributions of liquidating assets over a longer term. The investment strategies of these partnerships include growth equity, buyout, venture capital, and real estate.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, net losses on investments included $103.6 million of net unrealized losses related to investments held at fair value that were still held at March 31, 2020. For the same period of 2019, the net gains on investments included $50.6 million of net unrealized gains on investments held at fair value that were still held at March 31, 2019.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, certain T. Rowe Price investment products in which we provided initial seed capital at the time of formation were deconsolidated, as we no longer had a controlling interest. Depending on our ownership interest, we are now reporting our residual interests in these T. Rowe Price investment products as either an equity method investment or an investment held at fair value. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2019, certain T. Rowe Price investment products that were being accounted for as equity method investments were consolidated, as we regained a controlling interest. The net impact of these changes on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and statements of income as of the dates the portfolios were deconsolidated or reconsolidated is detailed below.



	Three months ended
(in millions)	3/31/2020			3/31/2019
Net increase (decrease) in assets of consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products	$	(46.2	)	$	12.3
Net decrease in liabilities of consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products	$	(2.4	)	$	(.9	)
Net increase (decrease) in redeemable non-controlling interests	$	(20.1	)	$	20.4

Gains recognized upon deconsolidation	$	.1		$	.1

The gains or losses recognized upon deconsolidation were the result of reclassifying currency translation adjustments accumulated on certain T. Rowe Price investment products with non-USD functional currencies from accumulated other comprehensive income to non-operating income (loss).

Page 9

VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES.

Our investments at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, include interests in variable interest entities that we do not consolidate as we are not deemed the primary beneficiary. Our maximum risk of loss related to our involvement with these entities is as follows:



(in millions)	3/31/2020		12/31/2019
Investment carrying values	$	129.4	$	156.0
Unfunded capital commitments	15.6		18.1
Uncollected investment advisory and administrative fees	7.1		10.5
	$	152.1	$	184.6

The unfunded capital commitments totaling $15.6 million and $18.1 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, relate primarily to the investment partnerships in which we have an existing investment. In addition to such amounts, a percentage of prior distributions may be called under certain circumstances.

NOTE 4 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS.

We determine the fair value of our cash equivalents and certain investments using the following broad levels of inputs as defined by related accounting standards:

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 – observable inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar


	securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, and credit risk. These inputs are based on market data

obtained from independent sources.

Level 3 – unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions based on the best information available. We do not

value any investments using Level 3 inputs.

These levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with our investments. The following table summarizes our investments that are recognized in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets using fair value measurements determined based on the differing levels of inputs. This table excludes investments held by the consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products which are presented separately on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and are detailed in Note 5.



	3/31/2020				12/31/2019
(in millions)	Level 1		Level 2		Level 1		Level 2
Cash equivalents held in T. Rowe Price money market funds	$	1,164.9	$	—	$	1,355.6	$	—
T. Rowe Price investment products	1,075.7		12.4		1,393.0		9.9
T. Rowe Price investment products designated as an economic hedge of supplemental savings plan liability	500.0		—		561.1		—
Total	$	2,740.6	$	12.4	$	3,309.7	$	9.9

As required by the accounting guidance, the fair value hierarchy levels table above does not include the investment partnerships and other investments for which fair value is estimated using their NAV per share as a practical expedient. The carrying value of these investments as disclosed in Note 3 were $105.5 million at March 31, 2020 and $99.7 million at December 31, 2019.

NOTE 5 – CONSOLIDATED T. ROWE PRICE INVESTMENT PRODUCTS.

The T. Rowe Price investment products that we consolidate in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are generally those products we provided initial seed capital at the time of their formation and have a controlling interest. Our U.S. mutual funds are considered voting interest entities, while those regulated outside the U.S. are considered variable interest entities.

⁽¹⁾Cash and cash equivalents includes $22.5 million and $9.1 million at March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, respectively, of T. Rowe Price money market mutual funds.

⁽²⁾Investments includes $35.3 million and $40.2 million at March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, respectively, of T. Rowe Price investment products.

Although we can redeem our net interest in these consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products at any time, we cannot directly access or sell the assets held by these products to obtain cash for general operations. Additionally, the assets of these investment products are not available to our general creditors.

Since third party investors in these investment products have no recourse to our credit, our overall risk related to the net assets of consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products is limited to valuation changes associated with our net interest. We, however, are required to recognize the valuation changes associated with all underlying investments held by these products in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and disclose the portion attributable to third party investors as net income attributable to redeemable non-controlling interests.

The operating results of the consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, are reflected in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income as follows:



	Three months ended

The operating expenses of the consolidated investment products are reflected in other operating expenses. In preparing our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we eliminated operating expenses of $2.5 million and $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, against the investment advisory and administrative fees earned from these products. The net investment income (loss) reflected in non-

Page 11

operating income (loss) includes dividend and interest income and realized and unrealized gains and losses on the underlying securities held by the consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products.

The table below details the impact of these consolidated investment products on the individual lines of our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

Rowe Price investment products, net of dividends received. These cash flows were eliminated in consolidation.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS.

We determine the fair value of investments held by consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products using the following broad levels of inputs as defined by related accounting standards:

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 – observable inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, and credit risk. These inputs are based on market data obtained from independent sources.

Level 3 – unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions based on the best information available. The value of investments using Level 3 inputs is insignificant.

These levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with these investment holdings. The following table summarizes the investment holdings held by our consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products using fair value measurements determined based on the differing levels of inputs.

NOTE 10 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES.

On February 14, 2017, T. Rowe Price Group, Inc., T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc., T. Rowe Price Trust Company, current and former members of the management committee, and trustees of the T. Rowe Price U.S. Retirement Program were named as defendants in a lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland. The lawsuit alleges breaches of ERISA’s fiduciary duty and prohibited transaction provisions on behalf of a class of all participants and beneficiaries of the T. Rowe Price 401(k) Plan from February 14, 2011, to the time of judgment. The matter has been certified as a class action. T. Rowe Price believes the claims are without merit and is vigorously defending the action. This matter is in the expert discovery phase of litigation and we cannot predict the eventual outcome, or whether it will have a material negative impact on our financial results, or estimate the possible loss or range of loss that may arise from any negative outcome.

On April 27, 2016, certain shareholders in the T. Rowe Price Blue Chip Growth Fund, T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Fund, T. Rowe Price Equity Income Fund, T. Rowe Price Growth Stock Fund, T. Rowe Price International Stock Fund, T. Rowe Price High Yield Fund, T. Rowe Price New Income Fund and T. Rowe Price Small Cap Stock Fund (the “Funds”) filed a Section 36(b) complaint under the caption Zoidis v. T. Rowe Price Assoc., Inc., against T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (“T. Rowe Price”) in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The complaint alleges that the management fees for the identified funds are excessive because

T. Rowe Price charges lower advisory fees to subadvised clients with funds in the same strategy. The complaint seeks to recover the allegedly excessive advisory fees received by T. Rowe Price in the year preceding the start of the lawsuit, along with investments’ returns and profits. In the alternative, the complaint seeks the rescission of each fund’s investment management agreement and restitution of any allegedly excessive management fees.

T. Rowe Price believes the claims are without merit and is vigorously defending the action. This matter is in the discovery phase of litigation and we cannot predict the eventual outcome, or whether it will have a material negative impact on our financial results, or estimate the possible loss or range of loss that may arise from any negative outcome.

In addition to the matters discussed above, various claims against us arise in the ordinary course of business, including employment-related claims. In the opinion of management, after consultation with counsel, the likelihood of an adverse determination in one or more of these pending ordinary course of business claims that would have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations is remote.

T. Rowe Price Group, Inc.:

Results of Review of Interim Financial Information

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of March 31, 2020, the related condensed consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated interim financial information). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated interim financial information for it to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2019, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 13, 2020, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Basis for Review Results

This consolidated interim financial information is the responsibility of the Company’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of consolidated interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Item 2.	Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

OVERVIEW.

Our revenues and net income are derived primarily from investment advisory services provided to individual and institutional investors in U.S. mutual funds, subadvised funds, separately managed accounts, and other T. Rowe Price products. The other T. Rowe Price products include: collective investment trusts, open-ended investment products offered to investors outside the U.S., and products offered through variable annuity life insurance plans in the U.S. We also provide certain investment advisory clients with related administrative services, including distribution, mutual fund transfer agent, accounting, and shareholder services; participant recordkeeping and transfer agent services for defined contribution retirement plans; brokerage; and trust services.

We manage a broad range of U.S., international and global stock, bond, and money market mutual funds and other investment products, which meet the varied needs and objectives of individual and institutional investors. Investment advisory revenues depend largely on the total value and composition of assets under our management. Accordingly, fluctuations in financial markets and in the composition of assets under management affect our revenues and results of operations. Additionally, approximately 30% of our operating expenses are impacted by fluctuations in our assets under management.

We incur significant expenditures to develop new products and services and improve and expand our capabilities and distribution channels in order to attract new investment advisory clients and additional investments from our existing clients. These efforts often involve costs that precede any future revenues that we may recognize from an increase to our assets under management.

The general trend to passive investing has been persistent and accelerated in recent years, which has negatively impacted our new client inflows. However, over the long term we expect well-executed active management to play an important role for investors. In this regard, we remain debt-free with ample liquidity and resources that allow us to take advantage of attractive growth opportunities. We are investing in key capabilities, including investment professionals, technologies, and new product offerings; and, most importantly, we provide our clients with strong investment management expertise and service both now and in the future.

MARKET TRENDS.

U.S. stocks plunged in the later part of the first quarter of 2020. After starting the year on a strong note, equities fell as a coronavirus outbreak that originated in China in late 2019 rapidly spread to other countries and was deemed a global pandemic. The sell-off intensified in March, as the coronavirus spread rapidly in the U.S., prompting government officials to close schools, nonessential businesses, and public facilities. The Federal Reserve took drastic actions to increase financial market liquidity and support the flow of credit to consumers and businesses. Stocks did pare some losses in the final days of the quarter as the Trump administration and Congress passed into law a massive economic stimulus bill.

Stocks in developed non-U.S. equity markets declined broadly; returns for U.S. investors were hurt by a stronger U.S. dollar versus many other currencies. In Asia, Australian shares fell more than 33%, while equities in Japan and Hong Kong declined roughly 17%. In Europe, equity markets in Spain and Italy, where the coronavirus outbreak has been severe, fell roughly 30% and 29%, respectively.

Stocks in emerging equity markets declined slightly more than developed markets. In emerging Europe markets, Russian shares fell more than 36% amid plunging oil prices following OPEC heavyweight Saudi Arabia’s decision to increase production and offer discounts to global customers. Emerging Asian markets were negative, though Chinese shares held up best with losses of roughly 10%. China’s lockdown efforts started to ease late in the first quarter, which helped equities recover partially from earlier losses. In Latin America, all major markets posted losses of at least 30%.

Returns of several major equity market indexes for the first quarter of 2020, were as follows:



		Three months ended
Index		3/31/2020
S&P 500 Index		(19.6)%
NASDAQ Composite Index⁽¹⁾		(14.2)%
Russell 2000 Index		(30.6)%
MSCI EAFE (Europe, Australasia, and Far East) Index		(22.7)%
MSCI Emerging Markets Index		(23.6)%

⁽¹⁾Returns exclude dividends

Global bond returns were largely negative in U.S. dollar terms. In the U.S. investment-grade universe, Treasuries surged as the Federal Reserve slashed short-term interest rates to near 0%, announced massive purchases of U.S. government bonds and other securities, and rolled out a variety of programs and “facilities” intended to boost market liquidity and the flow of credit. The 10-year Treasury note yield decreased from 1.92% at the end of 2019 to 0.70% at the end of March. Mortgage-backed securities significantly lagged Treasuries amid substantial mortgage refinancing activity. Asset-backed securities posted slightly negative returns, while corporate bonds declined in anticipation of weaker corporate profits and a recession. Municipal bonds underperformed taxable bonds. High yield bonds posted significant losses as the yield difference between higher- and lower-quality bonds widened dramatically.

Bonds in developed non-U.S. countries produced negative returns in U.S. dollar terms. Bond prices climbed as longer-term interest rates in many countries declined, but most major currencies fell versus the dollar, reducing returns to U.S. investors. Most developed market governments unveiled fiscal stimulus measures, while most central banks responded with significant monetary easing programs.

Emerging markets bonds were broadly negative. U.S. dollar-denominated emerging markets bonds slightly outperformed local currency bonds amid broad dollar strength. Most developing market currencies declined during the quarter.

Returns for several major bond market indexes for the first quarter of 2020, were as follows:

ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT.

Assets under management ended the first quarter of 2020 at $1,008.8 billion, a decrease of $198.0 billion from December 31, 2019. Net cash outflows were $6.0 billion, and clients transferred $4.4 billion in net assets from the U.S. mutual funds to other investment products, of which $4.3 billion was transferred to retirement date trusts. Market depreciation and losses, net of dividends not reinvested, reduced our assets under management by $192.0 billion in the first quarter of 2020.

The following tables detail changes in our assets under management, by vehicle and asset class during the first quarter of 2020:

⁽¹⁾The underlying assets under management of the multi-asset portfolios have been aggregated and presented in this category and not reported in the equity and fixed income columns.

⁽²⁾ Includes distributions reinvested and not reinvested.

Investment advisory clients outside the U.S. account for about 7.4% of our assets under management at March 31, 2020 and 6.9% at December 31, 2019.

Our target date retirement products, which are included in the multi-asset totals shown above, continue to be a significant part of our assets under management. Assets under management in these portfolios were as follows:



	As of
(in billions)	3/31/2020		12/31/2019
Target date retirement U.S. mutual funds	$	132.0	$	164.8
Target date separately managed retirement accounts	7.1		8.4
Target date retirement trusts	103.1		119.2
	$	242.2	$	292.4

Net cash inflows into our target date retirement products were $.7 billion in the first quarter of 2020. A redemption in a risk-managed strategy from a large institutional investor was the primary driver of the multi-asset outflows during the first quarter of 2020.

Results Overview

Investment advisory revenues. Investment advisory fees are earned based on the value and composition of our assets under management, which change based on fluctuations in financial markets and net cash flows. As our average assets under management increase or decrease in a given period, the level of our investment advisory fee revenue for that same period generally fluctuates in a similar manner. Our annualized effective fee rates can be impacted by market or cash flow related shifts among asset and share classes, price changes in existing products, and asset level changes in products with tiered-fee structures.

Investment advisory revenues earned in the first quarter of 2020 increased over the comparable 2019 quarter as average assets under our management increased $119.2 billion, or 11.4%, to $1,162.7 billion. The average annualized effective fee rate earned during the first quarter of 2020 was 45.9 basis points, compared with 46.4 basis points earned during the first quarter of 2019. The decline in our effective fee rate for the first quarter of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019 was primarily due to client transfers within the complex from higher fee vehicles to lower fee vehicles over the last twelve months.

Operating expenses. Operating expenses were $755.4 million in the first quarter of 2020 compared with $794.8 million in the first quarter of 2019. The decrease in operating expenses for the first quarter of 2020 was primarily due to a change in market-related compensation expense of $100.3 million related to the supplemental savings plan. Partially offsetting this decrease were higher salary and benefits, interim bonus accrual, stock-based compensation expense and the continued strategic investments in the first quarter of 2020 compared to the first quarter of 2019. For the first quarter of 2020, the compensation expense related to the supplemental savings plan is more than offset by the non-operating losses incurred on the investments used to economically hedge the related liability.

On a non-GAAP basis, our operating expenses in the first quarter of 2020 increased 8.1% to $817.9 million compared to the first quarter of 2019. Our non-GAAP operating expenses do not include the impact of our supplemental savings plan and consolidated sponsored investment products. See our non-GAAP reconciliations later in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis section.

Given the market environment, we updated our 2020 non-GAAP operating expense growth range guidance from a range of 6%-9% to a range of 1%-4%. We expect certain expense categories, such as travel- and AUM-related, to be naturally impacted more than others. Most importantly, we will continue to make investments in our critical strategic initiatives to promote long-term growth in the business. We could elect to further adjust our expense growth should unforeseen circumstances arise, including significant market movements and ongoing disruption resulting from the coronavirus pandemic.

Operating margin. Our operating margin in the first quarter of 2020 was 48.4%, compared to 40.1% earned in the 2019 quarter. The increase in our operating margin for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the 2019 period is primarily driven by the lower compensation expense related to our supplemental savings plan as markets in the first quarter of 2020 underperformed the same period in 2019.

Diluted earnings per share. Diluted earnings per share was $1.41 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and $2.09 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The 32.5% decrease was primarily driven by significant losses incurred on our investment portfolio in the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to gains generated in the three months ended March 31, 2019. This decrease in diluted earnings per share was partially offset by higher operating income and a lower effective tax rate.

On a non-GAAP basis, diluted earnings per share was $1.87 for both the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, higher operating income, lower shares outstanding, and a lower effective tax rate were completely offset by non-operating losses. See our non-GAAP reconciliations later in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis section.

Investment advisory fees.

U.S. mutual funds

Investment advisory revenues earned in the first quarter of 2020 from our U.S. mutual funds were $876.2 million, an increase of 7.4% from the comparable 2019 quarter. Average assets under management in these funds for the first quarter of 2020 increased 7.2% from the 2019 quarter to $654.3 billion.

Subadvised and separate accounts and other investment products

Investment advisory revenues earned in the first quarter of 2020 from subadvised and separate accounts and other investment products were $451.6 million, an increase of 19.4% from the comparable 2019 quarter. Average assets under management for these products increased 17.3% from the 2019 quarter to $508.4 billion.

Since the first quarter of 2019, the inflows into the Japanese ITMs, which have a higher than average fee rate, have caused investment advisory fees to increase at a rate greater than the increase in average assets under management for our subadvised and separate accounts and other products.

Administrative, distribution, and servicing fees. Administrative, distribution, and servicing fees in the first quarter of 2020 were $134.8 million, an increase of $1.7 million, or 1.3%, from the comparable 2019 quarter. In this line, we recognize fees earned from providing administrative and distribution services to our investment advisory clients, primarily our U.S. mutual funds and their investors. The increase was primarily due to increased transfer agent servicing activities and higher recordkeeping fees, partially offset by lower 12b-1 revenue earned on certain share classes, including the Advisor and R classes, of the U.S. mutual funds. The decline in 12b-1 revenue is attributable primarily to a reduction in assets under management as client transferred assets to lower fee vehicles and share classes. The decline in 12b-1 revenue is offset entirely by a reduction in the costs paid to third-party intermediaries that source these assets and reported in distribution and servicing expense.

Our first quarter net revenues reflect the elimination of $2.5 million in 2020 and $1.5 million in 2019, of revenue earned from our consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products. The corresponding expenses recognized by these products, and consolidated in our financial statements, were eliminated from operating expenses.

(in millions)	3/31/2020		3/31/2019		$ change			% change

Compensation and related costs. Compensation and related costs were $440.7 million in the first quarter of 2020, a decrease of $50.8 million, or 10.3%, compared to the 2019 quarter. The decrease was primarily due to a change in market-related expense of $100.3 million related to our supplemental savings plan as falling markets in the first quarter of 2020 reduced the liability and $4.7 million of higher labor capitalization related to internally developed software. These decreases in compensation and related costs were offset in part by increases in base salary, employee benefits and related employee costs of $22.6 million, primarily as a result of a 5.3% increase in our average staff size and, to a lesser extent, the modest increases in base salaries at the beginning of 2020. Our interim accrual for annual variable compensation, primarily bonus compensation, also increased $16.1 million from the 2019 quarter and non-cash stock-based compensation expense increased by $14.8 million. We recognize the interim bonus accrual ratably over the year using the ratio of recognized quarterly net revenues to currently forecasted annual net revenues.

Distribution and servicing. Distribution and servicing includes those costs incurred to distribute T. Rowe Price products as well as client and shareholder servicing, recordkeeping, and administrative services. These costs were $65.7 million for the first quarter of 2020, a decrease of 1.1% from the $66.4 million recognized in the 2019 quarter. The decrease for the period is primarily driven by lower assets under management in those mutual funds for which we pay distribution and servicing costs as clients transferred assets to lower fee vehicles or share classes over the last twelve months. The decreases in costs related to these products were partially offset by higher distribution costs as a result of inflows into our Japanese ITMs since the end of the first quarter of 2019.

Distribution and servicing costs paid to third-party intermediaries that source the assets of certain share classes of our U.S. mutual funds are recognized in this expense line and are offset entirely by the 12b-1 revenue we earn and report in administrative, distribution, and servicing fees.

Advertising and promotion. Advertising and promotion costs were $24.9 million in the first quarter of 2020, an increase of $3.3 million, or 15.3%, compared to the $21.6 million recognized in the 2019 quarter. The increase for the period is due primarily to increased television media advertising activity in 2020 as compared to 2019.

Technology, occupancy, and facility costs. Technology, occupancy, and facility costs consists of depreciation expense, technology equipment and maintenance, software, and costs related to our facilities. These costs were $105.4 million in the first quarter of 2020, an increase of $7.3 million, or 7.4%, compared to the $98.1 million recognized in the 2019 quarter. The increase for the period is due primarily to the ongoing investment in our technology capabilities, including related depreciation and hosted solution licenses.

General, administrative, and other. General, administrative, and other expenses were $77.1 million in the first quarter of 2020, an increase of $4.1 million, or 5.6%, compared to the $73.0 million recognized in the 2019 quarter. The increase in the first quarter of 2020 compared with the 2019 period is primarily due to an increase in third-party investment research costs and higher professional fees, partially offset by lower travel expenses as global travel restrictions were put in place amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Non-operating income (loss)

Non-operating loss in the first quarter of 2020 was $500.3 million, a decrease of $703.1 million from non-operating income in the first quarter of 2019 of $202.8 million. The following table details the components of non-operating income during both the first quarter of March 31, 2020 and 2019.

During the first quarter of 2020, our investment portfolio incurred steep declines in market value as global economies and markets are disrupted by the coronavirus pandemic. Our consolidated investment products and supplemental savings plan hedge portfolio comprised about 80% of the net losses recognized during the first quarter of 2020. The cash and discretionary investment portfolio also experienced net investment losses of $61.2 million in the first quarter of 2020.

The table above includes the net investment income of the underlying portfolios included in the consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products and not just the net investment income related to our interest. The table below shows the impact that the consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products have on the individual lines of our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and the portion attributable to our interest:

Provision for income taxes

Our effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2020 was 19.5%, compared with 24.7% in the 2019 quarter. The lower effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2020 as compared to the 2019 quarter is primarily due to higher discrete tax benefits associated with option exercises. These benefits were partially offset by net losses attributable to redeemable non-controlling interests held in the firm’s consolidated investment products, which are not taxable to us despite being included in pre-tax income, and a higher state effective tax rate. The higher state effective tax rate results primarily from the remeasurement of deferred tax liabilities related to our investment portfolio. The following table reconciles the statutory federal income tax rate to our effective tax rate for both the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019:



	Three months ended
	3/31/2020		3/31/2019
Statutory U.S. federal income tax rate	21.0	%	21.0	%
State income taxes for current year, net of federal income tax benefits⁽¹⁾	6.4		4.2
Net losses (income) attributable to redeemable non-controlling interests	3.1		(.6	)
Net excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation plans activity	(8.1	)	(.6	)
Other items	(2.9	)	.7
Effective income tax rate	19.5	%	24.7	%

⁽¹⁾State income tax benefits are reflected in the total benefits for net income attributable to redeemable non-controlling interests and stock-based compensation plans activity.

We currently estimate our effective tax rate for the full-year 2020 will be in the range of 24% to 27%. Our effective tax rate will continue to experience volatility in future periods as the discrete tax benefits recognized from option exercises are impacted by market fluctuations in our stock price and timing of option exercises. The rate will also be impacted by net investment income recognized on our consolidated investment products that are driven by market fluctuations and changes in the proportion of their net income that is attributable to non-controlling interests.

Our non-GAAP effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2020 and 2019 was 22.5% and 25.3%, respectively. The non-GAAP tax rate primarily adjusts for the impact of the consolidated investment products, including the significant net losses attributable to the redeemable non-controlling interests. The decrease in the non-GAAP effective tax rate is primarily due to the higher tax benefits associated with option exercises. We currently estimate our non-GAAP effective tax rate for the full-year 2020 will be in the range of 23.5% to 25.5%.

NON-GAAP INFORMATION AND RECONCILIATION.

We believe the non-GAAP financial measures below provide relevant and meaningful information to investors about our core operating results. These measures have been established in order to increase transparency for the purpose of evaluating our core business, for comparing current results with prior period results, and to enable more appropriate comparison with industry peers. However, non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be calculated differently by other companies.

Page 25

The following schedules reconcile certain U.S. GAAP financial measures for the three months ended

March 31, 2020 and 2019.

⁽¹⁾

These non-GAAP adjustments remove the impact the consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products have on our U.S. GAAP consolidated statements of income. Specifically, we add back the operating expenses and subtract the investment income of the consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products. The adjustment to our operating expenses represents the operating expenses of the consolidated products, net of the elimination of related management and administrative fees. The adjustment to net income attributable to T. Rowe Price Group represents the net income of the consolidated products, net of redeemable non-controlling interest. We remove the impact of the consolidated

T. Rowe Price investment products as we believe they impact the reader’s ability to understand our core operating results.

⁽²⁾

These non-GAAP adjustments remove the compensation expense impact from market valuation changes in the supplemental savings plan liability and the related net gains (losses) on investments designated as an economic hedge against the related liability. Amounts deferred under the supplemental savings plan are adjusted for appreciation (depreciation) of hypothetical investments chosen by participants. We use T. Rowe Price investment products to economically hedge the exposure to these market movements. We believe it is useful to offset the non-operating investment income (loss) realized on the hedges against the related compensation expense and remove the net impact to help the reader's ability to understand our core operating results and to increase comparability period to period.

⁽³⁾

This non-GAAP adjustment represents the other non-operating income (loss) and the net gains (losses) earned on our non-consolidated investment portfolio that are not designated as economic hedges of the supplemental savings plan liability, and non-consolidated seed investments and other investments that are not part of the cash and discretionary investment portfolio. We retain the investment gains recognized on our non-consolidated cash and discretionary investments as these assets and related income (loss) are considered part of our core operations. We believe adjusting for these non-operating income (loss) items helps the reader’s ability to understand our core operating results and increases comparability to prior years. Additionally, we do not emphasize the impact of the portion of non-operating income (loss) removed when managing and evaluating our core performance.

⁽⁴⁾	The income tax impacts were calculated in order to achieve an overall non-GAAP effective tax rate of 22.5% for 2020 and 25.3% for 2019. We estimate that our effective tax rate for the full-year 2020 on a non-GAAP basis will be in the range of 23.5% to 25.5%.


⁽⁵⁾	This non-GAAP measure was calculated by applying the two-class method to adjusted net income attributable to T. Rowe Price Group divided by the weighted-average common shares outstanding assuming dilution. The calculation of adjusted net income allocated to common stockholders is as follows:

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY.

Sources of Liquidity

We remain debt-free with ample liquidity, including cash and investments in T. Rowe Price products, as follows:



(in millions)	3/31/2020		12/31/2019
Cash and cash equivalents	$	1,562.4	$	1,781.8
Discretionary investments	1,841.4		1,899.6

Investments used to hedge the supplemental savings plan liability	500.0		561.1
Total cash and investments in T. Rowe Price products	$	4,985.4	$	5,568.1

Our discretionary investment portfolio is comprised primarily of short duration bond funds, which typically yield higher than money market rates, and asset allocation products. Cash and discretionary investments incurred losses of $61.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to generating income of $44.2 million in the prior quarter. Cash and discretionary investments in T. Rowe Price products held by our subsidiaries outside the U.S. were $684.3 million at March 31, 2020 and $665.8 million at December 31, 2019. Given the availability of our financial resources and cash expected to be generated through future operations, we do not maintain an available external source of additional liquidity.

Our seed capital investments are redeemable, although we generally expect to be invested for several years for the products to build an investment performance history and until unrelated third-party investors substantially reduce our relative ownership percentage.

The cash and investment presentation on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet is based on the accounting treatment for the cash equivalent or investment item. The following table details how T. Rowe Price Group’s interests in cash and investments relate to where they are presented on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2020.

⁽¹⁾

The T. Rowe Price investment products that we consolidate are generally those products we provided seed capital at the time of their formation and we have a controlling interest. These products generally represent U.S. mutual funds as well as those funds regulated outside the U.S. The net assets of the T. Rowe Price investment products at March 31, 2020 consist of the assets of these products that we consolidate on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets of $2,024.3 million, less the liabilities of these products of $82.9 million.

Our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet reflects the cash and cash equivalents, investments, other assets and liabilities of those T. Rowe Price investment products we consolidate, as well as redeemable non-controlling interests for the portion of these T. Rowe Price investment products that are held by unrelated third-party investors. Although we can redeem our net interest in these T. Rowe Price investment products at any time, we cannot directly access or sell the assets held by the products to obtain cash for general operations. Additionally, the assets of these T. Rowe Price investment products are not available to our general creditors. Our interest in these

T. Rowe Price investment products was used as initial seed capital and is recategorized as discretionary when it is determined by management that the seed capital is no longer needed. We assess the discretionary investment products and, when we decide to liquidate our interest, we seek to do so in a way as to not impact the product and, ultimately, the unrelated third-party investors.

Uses of Liquidity

We increased our quarterly recurring dividend per common share in February 2020 by 18.4% to $.90 per common share from $.76 per common share. Additionally, we expended $887.0 million in the first quarter of 2020 to repurchase 8.3 million shares, or 3.5%, of our outstanding common stock at an average price of $106.43 per share. These dividends and repurchases were expended using existing cash balances and cash generated from operations. We will generally repurchase our common stock over time to offset the dilution created by our equity-based compensation plans.

Page 28

Since the end of 2017, we have returned $4.3 billion to stockholders through stock repurchases and our regular quarterly dividends, as follows:



(in millions)	Recurring dividend		Stock repurchases		Total cash returned to stockholders
2018	$	694.7	$	1,099.6	$	1,794.3
2019	733.6		708.8		1,442.4
Three months ended 3/31/2020	214.7		887.0		1,101.7
Total	$	1,643.0	$	2,695.4	$	4,338.4

We anticipate property and equipment expenditures for the full-year 2020 to be about $230 million, of which about three-quarters is planned for technology initiatives. We expect to fund our anticipated capital expenditures with operating cash flows and other available resources.

Operating Activities

Operating activities attributable to T. Rowe Price Group during the first quarter of 2020 provided cash flows of $864.0 million as compared to $673.4 million during the first quarter of 2019. Operating cash flows attributable to T. Rowe Price Group increased $190.6 million as $492.5 million in higher non-cash adjustments, including unrealized investment gains/losses, depreciation, and stock-based compensation expense, more than offset the $169.5 million decline in net income from the first quarter of 2019. The non-cash adjustments were driven by a $464.2 million change in net investment gains/losses as we recognized investment losses in the first quarter of 2020 compared with gains in the first quarter of 2019. The investment losses in 2020, which are added back to net income, were a result of the market disruption caused by the coronavirus pandemic. The majority of the remaining adjustments related to timing differences on the cash settlement of our assets and liabilities, which decreased cash flows by $132.4 million. Our interim operating cash flows do not include the cash impact of variable compensation that is accrued throughout the year before being substantially paid out in December. The remaining change in reported cash flows from operating activities was attributable to the net change in trading securities held in our consolidated investment products’ underlying portfolios.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities that are attributable to T. Rowe Price Group totaled $15.0 million in the first quarter of 2020 compared with $69.2 million in the 2019 period. During 2020, we received net proceeds from our discretionary investments of $74.0 million compared to net proceeds of $17.9 million during 2019. In addition, we decreased our property and equipment expenditures by $1.7 million and decreased the level of seed capital provided by $4.6 million. Since we consolidate the seed capital in T. Rowe Price investment products, our seed capital was eliminated in preparing our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. The remaining$2.6 million change in reported cash flows from investing activities is related to the net cash removed from our balance sheet from consolidating and deconsolidating investment products.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities attributable to T. Rowe Price Group were $1,068.4 million in the first quarter of 2020 compared with $372.0 million in the 2019 period. During 2020, there was a $660.3 million increase in cash paid for common stock repurchases as we repurchased 5.8 million more common stock in the first quarter of 2020 as compared to the first quarter of 2019. Additionally, there was a $30.6 million increase in dividends paid in 2020 as a result of an 18.4% increase in our quarterly dividend per share. The remaining change in reported cash flows from financing activities is primarily attributable to a $10.1 million increase in net subscriptions received from redeemable non-controlling interest holders of our consolidated investment products during the first quarter of 2020 compared to the 2019 period.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES.

The preparation of financial statements often requires the selection of specific accounting methods and policies from among several acceptable alternatives. Further, significant estimates and judgments may be required in selecting and applying those methods and policies in the recognition of the assets and liabilities in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, the revenues and expenses in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income, and the information that is contained in our significant accounting policies and notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Making these estimates and judgments requires the analysis of information concerning events that may not yet be complete and of facts and circumstances that may change over time. Accordingly, actual amounts or future results can differ materially from those estimates that we include currently in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, significant accounting policies, and notes.

There have been no material changes in the critical accounting policies previously identified in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION.

From time to time, information or statements provided by or on behalf of T. Rowe Price, including those within this report, may contain certain forward-looking information, including information or anticipated information relating to: our revenues, net income, and earnings per share on common stock; changes in the amount and composition of our assets under management; our expense levels; our tax rate; and our expectations regarding financial markets, future transactions, dividends, stock repurchases, investments, new products and services, capital expenditures, changes in our effective fee rate, the impact of the coronavirus pandemic, and other market conditions. Readers are cautioned that any forward-looking information provided by or on behalf of T. Rowe Price is not a guarantee of future performance. Actual results may differ materially from those in forward-looking information because of various factors including, but not limited to, those discussed below and in Item 1A, Risk Factors, of this Form 10-Q and our Form 10-K Annual Report for 2019. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which it is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Our future revenues and results of operations will fluctuate primarily due to changes in the total value and composition of assets under our management. Such changes result from many factors, including, among other things: cash inflows and outflows in the U.S. mutual funds and subadvised and separately managed funds and other investment products, fluctuations in global financial markets that result in appreciation or depreciation of the assets under our management, our introduction of new mutual funds and investment products, changes in retirement savings trends relative to participant-directed investments and defined contribution plans, and the impact of the recent coronavirus outbreak. The ability to attract and retain investors’ assets under our management is dependent on investor sentiment and confidence; the relative investment performance of the U.S. mutual funds and other managed investment products as compared with competing offerings and market indexes; the ability to maintain our investment management and administrative fees at appropriate levels; competitive conditions in the mutual fund, asset management, and broader financial services sectors; and our level of success in implementing our strategy to expand our business. Our revenues are substantially dependent on fees earned under contracts with the T. Rowe Price funds and could be adversely affected if the independent directors of one or more of the T. Rowe Price funds terminated or significantly altered the terms of the investment management or related administrative services agreements. Non-operating investment income will also fluctuate primarily due to the size of our investments, changes in their market valuations, and any other-than-temporary impairments that may arise or, in the case of our equity method investments, our proportionate share of the investees' net income.

Our future results are also dependent upon the level of our expenses, which are subject to fluctuation for the following or other reasons: changes in the level of our advertising and promotion expenses in response to market conditions, including our efforts to expand our investment advisory business to investors outside the U.S. and to further penetrate our distribution channels within the U.S.; the pace and level of spending to support key strategic priorities; variations in the level of total compensation expense due to, among other things, bonuses, restricted stock units and other equity grants, other incentive awards, our supplemental savings plan, changes in our employee count and mix, and competitive factors; any goodwill or other asset impairment that may arise; fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates applicable to the costs of our international operations; expenses and capital costs, such as technology assets, depreciation, amortization, and research and development, incurred to maintain and enhance our administrative and operating services infrastructure; the timing of the assumption of all third party research payments, unanticipated costs that may be incurred to protect investor accounts and the goodwill of our clients; and disruptions of services, including those provided by third parties, such as fund and product recordkeeping, facilities, communications, power, and the mutual fund transfer agent and accounting systems.

Our business is also subject to substantial governmental regulation, and changes in legal, regulatory, accounting, tax, and compliance requirements may have a substantial effect on our operations and results, including, but not limited to, effects on costs that we incur and effects on investor interest in T. Rowe Price investment products and investing in general or in particular classes of mutual funds or other investments.


Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

EQUITY PRICE RISK.

During the first quarter of 2020, the impact of the global coronavirus pandemic began to rapidly spread throughout the world and caused increasing disruption to populations, economic activity, and the global financial markets. Since our investments in T. Rowe Price investment products are carried at fair value, these investments are subject

Page 32

to market risk. The following table presents the equity price risk from our investments in T. Rowe Price investment products. Investments in these products generally moderate market risk as they are diversified and invest in a number of different financial instruments. T. Rowe Price manages its cash and discretionary investments exposure to market risk by diversifying its investments among equity and fixed income portfolios. In addition, investment holdings may be altered from time to time in response to changes in market risks and other factors, as management deems appropriate. We do not actively manage the market risk related to our our seed capital investments.

In order to quantify the sensitivity of our investments to changes in market valuations, we have chosen to use a variant of each product's net asset value to quantify the equity price risk, as we believe the volatility in each product's net asset value best reflects the underlying risk potential as well as the market trends surrounding each of its investment objectives. The potential future loss of value, before any income tax benefits, of these investments at March 31, 2020 was determined by using the lower of each product’s lowest net asset value per share during the first quarter of 2020 or its net asset value per share at March 31, 2020, reduced by 10%. In considering this presentation, it is important to note that: not all products experienced their lowest net asset value per share on the same day; it is likely that the composition of the investment portfolio would be changed if adverse market conditions persisted; and we could experience future losses in excess of those presented below.



(in millions)	Fair value 3/31/2020		Potential lower value		Potential loss
Investments in T. Rowe Price products
Discretionary investments	$	961.9	$	865.6	$	96.3	10	%
Seed capital not consolidated	126.2		112.8		13.4		11	%
Investments designated as an economic hedge of supplemental savings plan liability	500.0		441.6		58.4		12	%
Total	$	1,588.1	$	1,420.0	$	168.1	11	%
Direct investment in consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products
Discretionary investments	$	114.2	$	100.5	$	13.7	12	%
Seed capital	856.2		768.2		88.0		10	%
Total	$	970.4	$	868.7	$	101.7	10	%
Investment partnerships and other investments held at fair value	$	105.5	$	91.7	$	13.8	13	%

Any losses arising from the change in fair value of investments in T. Rowe Price products would result in a corresponding decrease, net of tax, in our net income attributable to T. Rowe Price Group. The direct investment in consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products represents our portion of the net assets of the product. Upon consolidation of these products, our direct investment is eliminated, and the net assets of the products are combined in our consolidated balance sheet, together with redeemable non-controlling interests, which represents the portion of the products that is owned by unrelated third-party investors. Any losses arising from the change in fair value of our direct investments in consolidated T. Rowe Price investment products would also result in a corresponding decrease, net of tax, in our net income attributable to T. Rowe Price Group. Further, we have investments in our portfolio that are used to economically hedge the change in our supplemental savings plan liability. Any gains or losses that would impact our net income attributable to T. Rowe Price Group result from any ineffectiveness of this economic hedge to the change in the supplemental savings plan liability.


Item 4.	Controls and Procedures.

Our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2020. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2020, are effective at the reasonable assurance level to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including this Form 10-Q quarterly report, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our

Page 33

principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, has evaluated any change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the first quarter of 2020, and has concluded that there was no change during the first quarter of 2020 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.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Information regarding our risk factors appears in Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC on February 13, 2020. The following risk factor has occurred since previously reporting our risk factors in Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

Our business, financial condition, and results of operation may be adversely affected by the recent coronavirus outbreak.

Beginning in early 2020, global financial markets have been monitoring and reacting to the novel coronavirus pandemic. The spread of the coronavirus has created significant volatility, uncertainty and economic disruption to the global economy and may impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. In particular global financial markets have seen increased volatility and significant changes in the value of investments. If the value of our assets under our management decreases, our revenue and operating results could be materially impacted. Furthermore, while we have in place robust and well-established business continuity plans that address the potential impact to our associates and our facilities, and a comprehensive suite of technologies which enable our associates to work remotely and conduct business, no assurance can be given that the steps we have taken

Page 34

will continue to be effective or appropriate. In the event that our associates become incapacitated by the coronavirus, our business operations may be impacted, which could lead to reputational and financial harm. Since our revenue is based on the market value and composition of the assets under our management, the ultimate impact on global financial markets and our clients’ decisions related to this event could adversely affect the Company’s revenue and operating results.
