Virtus Investment Partners, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Organization and Business
Virtus Investment Partners, Inc. (the "Company," "we," "us," "our" or "Virtus"), a Delaware corporation, operates in the investment management industry through its subsidiaries.

The Company provides investment management and related services to individuals and institutions. The Company’s retail investment management services are provided to individuals through products consisting of: mutual funds registered pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("U.S. retail funds"); Undertaking for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities and Qualifying Investor Funds (collectively, "global funds") and collectively with U.S. retail funds, variable insurance funds, and exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"), the "open-end funds"); closed-end funds (collectively, with open-end funds, the "funds"); and retail separate accounts that include intermediary-sold and private client accounts. Our investment strategies are offered to institutional clients through separate accounts and pooled, or commingled, structures. We also provide subadvisory services to other investment advisers and serve as the collateral manager for structured products.


2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the "2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The Company’s significant accounting policies, which have been consistently applied, are summarized in its 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.


3. Revenues
The Company's revenues are recognized when a performance obligation is satisfied, which occurs when control of the services is transferred to customers. Investment management fees, distribution and service fees, and administration and shareholder service fees are generally calculated as a percentage of average net assets of the investment portfolios managed. The net asset values from which these fees are calculated are variable in nature and subject to factors outside of the Company's control, such as additional investments, withdrawals and market performance. Because of this, these fees are considered constrained until the end of the contractual measurement period (monthly or quarterly), which is when asset values are generally determinable.

The Company expects $103.7 million of the purchase price, related to goodwill and intangibles, to be tax deductible over 15 years. The transaction consideration allocation is based upon preliminary information and is subject to change if additional information becomes available. The final fair value of the net assets acquired may result in adjustments to certain assets and liabilities, including goodwill. The revenues and operating income of AlphaSimplex were not material to the Company's results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

The following is a discussion of the valuation methodologies used for the Company’s assets measured at fair value:
Cash equivalents represent investments in money market funds. Cash investments in money market funds are valued using published net asset values and are classified as Level 1.

Sponsored funds represent investments in open-end funds, closed-end funds and ETFs for which the Company acts as the investment manager. The fair value of open-end funds is determined based on their published net asset values and are
10
categorized as Level 1. The fair value of closed-end funds and ETFs is determined based on the official closing price on the exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1.

Equity securities represent securities traded on active markets, are valued at the official closing price (typically the last sale or bid) on the exchange on which the securities are primarily traded and are categorized as Level 1.

Nonqualified retirement plan assets represent mutual funds within the Company's nonqualified retirement plan whose fair value is determined based on their published net asset value and are categorized as Level 1.

Contingent consideration represents liabilities associated with the Company's business combinations. The estimated fair values are measured with simulation models using unobservable market data inputs prepared with the assistance of an independent valuation firm. These liabilities are categorized as Level 3.

Cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities equal or approximate fair value based on the short-term nature of these instruments.

The following table presents a reconciliation of beginning and ending balances of recurring fair value measurements classified as Level 3:

On May 17, 2023, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $1.65 per common share to be paid on August 15, 2023 to stockholders of record at the close of business on July 31, 2023.

Common Stock Repurchases
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company repurchased 51,840 common shares at a weighted average price of $192.87 per share, for a total cost, including fees and expenses, of $10.0 million under its share repurchase program. As of June 30, 2023, 776,512 shares remained available for repurchase. Under the terms of the program, the Company may repurchase shares of its common stock from time to time at its discretion through open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions and/or other mechanisms, depending on price and prevailing market and business conditions. The program, which has no specified term, may be suspended or terminated at any time.

10. Stock-Based Compensation
Equity-based awards, including restricted stock units ("RSUs"), performance stock units ("PSUs"), stock options and unrestricted shares of common stock, may be granted to officers, employees and directors of the Company pursuant to the Company's Omnibus Incentive and Equity Plan (the "Omnibus Plan"). At June 30, 2023, 480,249 shares of common stock remained available for issuance of the 3,370,000 shares that are authorized for issuance under the Omnibus Plan.
    
Stock-based compensation expense is summarized as follows:

(in thousands)2023202220232022
Stock-based compensation expense$6,655 $4,572 $12,404 $14,119 

Restricted Stock Units
Each RSU entitles the holder to one share of common stock when the restriction expires. RSUs may be time-vested or performance-contingent (PSUs) that convert into RSUs after performance measurement is complete and generally vest in one to three years. Shares that are issued upon vesting are newly issued shares from the Omnibus Plan and are not issued from treasury stock.

RSU activity, inclusive of PSUs, for the six months ended June 30, 2023 is summarized as follows: 
Number
of Shares		Weighted Average
Grant Date

Outstanding at December 31, 2022377,087 $178.21

Settled(196,757)$118.47 
Outstanding at June 30, 2023350,657 $204.34 

For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, a total of 76,452 and 72,043 RSUs, respectively, were withheld by the Company as a result of net share settlements to settle minimum employee tax withholding obligations. The Company paid $13.2 million and $15.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, in minimum employee tax withholding obligations related to RSUs withheld for the net share settlements. These net share settlements had the effect of share repurchases by the Company as they reduced the number of shares that would have otherwise been issued as a result of the vesting.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company granted 44,583 PSUs that contain performance-based metrics in addition to a service condition. Compensation expense for PSUs is generally recognized over a three-year service period based upon the value determined using a combination of (i) the intrinsic value method for awards that contain a performance metric that represents a "performance condition" in accordance with ASC 718, Stock Compensation ("ASC 718") and (ii) the Monte Carlo simulation valuation model for awards that contain a "market condition" performance metric under ASC 718. Compensation expense for PSU awards that contain a market condition is fixed at the date of grant and will not be adjusted in future periods based upon the achievement of the market condition. Compensation expense for PSU awards with a performance condition is recorded each period based upon a probability assessment of the expected outcome of the performance metric with a final adjustment upon measurement at the end of the performance period.

As of June 30, 2023, unamortized stock-based compensation expense for unvested RSUs and PSUs was $39.3 million with a weighted-average remaining contractual life of 1.5 years.


11. Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Earnings (loss) per share ("EPS") is calculated in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Virtus Investment Partners, Inc. by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, excluding dilution for potential common stock issuances. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, including shares issuable upon the vesting of RSUs and stock option exercises using the treasury stock method, as determined under the if-converted method.

Restricted stock units36 84 3624 
Total anti-dilutive securities36 84 3624 


12. Income Taxes
In calculating the provision for income taxes, the Company uses an estimate of the annual effective tax rate based upon the facts and circumstances at each interim period. On a quarterly basis, the estimated annual effective tax rate is adjusted, as appropriate, based upon changes in facts and circumstances, if any, compared to those forecasted at the beginning of the fiscal year and at each interim period thereafter.

The provision for income taxes reflected U.S. federal, state and local taxes at an estimated effective tax rate of 23.2% and 38.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The lower estimated effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to excess tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation and the change in valuation allowances in the current year related to the tax effects of unrealized gains on certain Company investments. The higher effective tax rate in the prior year period was due to valuation allowances recorded for the tax effects of unrealized losses on certain Company investments.


13. Debt
Credit Agreement
The Company's credit agreement, most recently amended on June 20, 2023, changing the base interest rate from LIBOR to SOFR, (the "Credit Agreement"), comprises (i) a $275.0 million term loan with a seven-year term (the "Term Loan") expiring in September 2028, and (ii) a $175.0 million revolving credit facility with a five-year term expiring in September 2026. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company repaid $1.4 million outstanding under its Term Loan. At June 30, 2023, $260.2 million was outstanding under the Term Loan. In accordance with ASC 835, Interest, the amounts outstanding under the Company's Term Loan are presented on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet net of related debt issuance costs, which were $6.0 million as of June 30, 2023. On April 3, 2023, the Company borrowed $50.0 million under the revolving credit facility to partially finance its acquisition of AlphaSimplex, $40.0 million of which was outstanding at June 30, 2023 (see Note 4 for further information). On August 4, 2023, the Company repaid $20.0 million outstanding under the credit facility.

14. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Matters
The Company is involved from time to time in litigation and arbitration, as well as examinations, inquiries and investigations by various regulatory bodies, involving its compliance with, among other things, securities laws, client investment guidelines, laws governing the activities of broker-dealers and other laws and regulations affecting its products and other activities.

The Company records a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required in both the determination of probability and the determination as to whether a loss is reasonably estimable. Based on information currently available, available insurance coverage, indemnities and established reserves, the Company believes that the outcomes of its legal and regulatory proceedings are not likely, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, cash flows or its consolidated financial condition. However, in the event of unexpected subsequent developments, and given the inherent unpredictability of these legal and regulatory matters, the Company can provide no assurance that its assessment of any legal matter will reflect the ultimate outcome, and an adverse outcome in certain matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations or cash flows in particular quarterly or annual periods.


15. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
Redeemable noncontrolling interests represent third-party investments in the Company's CIP and minority interests held in a consolidated affiliate. Minority interests held in the affiliate are subject to holder put rights and Company call rights at established multiples of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and, as such, are considered redeemable at other than fair value. The rights are exercisable at pre-established intervals (between four and seven years from their issuance) or upon certain conditions, such as retirement. The put and call rights are not legally detachable or separately exercisable and are deemed to be embedded in the related noncontrolling interests. The Company, in purchasing affiliate equity, has the option to settle in cash or shares of the Company's common stock and is entitled to the cash flow associated with any purchased equity. Minority interests in an affiliate are recorded at estimated redemption value within redeemable noncontrolling interests on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and any changes in the estimated redemption value are recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations within noncontrolling interests.

Redeemable noncontrolling interests for the six months ended June 30, 2023 included the following amounts:

16. Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiaries and investment products that are consolidated. Voting interest entities ("VOE") are consolidated when the Company is considered to have a controlling financial interest, which is typically present when the Company owns a majority of the voting interest in an entity or otherwise has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity.

The Company evaluates any variable interest entity ("VIE") in which the Company has a variable interest for consolidation. A VIE is an entity in which either (i) the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its own activities without additional financial support, or (ii) where as a group, the holders of the equity investment at risk do not possess any one of the following: (a) the power through voting or similar rights to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance, (b) the obligation to absorb expected losses or the right to receive expected residual returns of the entity, or (c) proportionate voting and economic interests and where substantially all of the entity's activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with disproportionately fewer voting rights. If an
14
entity has any of these characteristics, it is considered a VIE and is required to be consolidated by its primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the entity that has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance and has the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

In the normal course of its business, the Company sponsors various investment products, some of which are consolidated by the Company. CIP includes both VOEs, made up primarily of open-end funds in which the Company holds a controlling financial interest, and VIEs, which consist of collateralized loan obligations ("CLO") and certain global and private funds of which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary. The consolidation and deconsolidation of these investment products have no impact on net income (loss) attributable to Virtus Investment Partners, Inc. The Company's risk with respect to these investment products is limited to its beneficial interests in these products. The Company has no right to the benefits from, and does not bear the risks associated with, these investment products beyond the Company's investments in, and fees generated from, these products.

The following table presents the balances of CIP that, after intercompany eliminations, were reflected on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

Consolidated CLOs
The majority of the Company's CIP that are VIEs are CLOs. At June 30, 2023, the Company consolidated seven CLOs. The financial information of certain CLOs is included on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements on a one-month lag based upon the availability of their financial information. A majority-owned consolidated private fund, whose primary purpose is to invest in CLOs for which the Company serves as the collateral manager, is also included.

Investments of CLOs
The CLOs held investments of $1.9 billion at June 30, 2023 consisting of bank loan investments that comprise the majority of the CLOs' portfolio asset collateral and are senior secured corporate loans across a variety of industries. These bank loan investments mature at various dates between 2023 and 2032 and pay interest at LIBOR or SOFR plus a spread of up to 9.0%. The CLOs may elect to reinvest any prepayments received on bank loan investments up until the periods between October 2019 and October 2026, depending on the CLO. Generally, subsequent prepayments received after the reinvestment period must be used to pay down the note obligations. At June 30, 2023, the fair value of the senior bank loans was less than the unpaid principal balance by $154.4 million. At June 30, 2023, there were no material collateral assets in default.

Notes Payable of CLOs
The CLOs held notes payable with a total value, at par, of $2.2 billion at June 30, 2023, consisting of senior secured floating rate notes payable with a par value of $2.0 billion and subordinated notes with a par value of $261.2 million. These note obligations bear interest at variable rates based on LIBOR plus a pre-defined spread ranging from 0.8% to 9.1%. The principal amounts outstanding of these note obligations mature on dates ranging from October 2027 to October 2034.

The Company's beneficial interests and maximum exposure to loss related to these consolidated CLOs is limited to (i) ownership in the subordinated notes, and (ii) accrued management fees. The secured notes of the consolidated CLOs have contractual recourse only to the related assets of the CLO and are classified as financial liabilities. Although these beneficial interests are eliminated upon consolidation, the application of the measurement alternative prescribed by ASU 2014-13,
15
Consolidation (Topic 810) ("ASU 2014-13") results in the net assets of the consolidated CLOs shown above to be equivalent to the beneficial interests retained by the Company at June 30, 2023, as shown in the table below:

The following is a discussion of the valuation methodologies used for the assets and liabilities of the Company’s CIP measured at fair value:

Cash equivalents represent investments in money market funds. Cash investments in money market funds are valued using published net asset values and are classified as Level 1.

Debt and equity investments represent the underlying debt, equity and other securities held in CIP. Equity investments are valued at the official closing price on the exchange on which the securities are traded and are generally categorized within Level 1. Level 2 investments represent most debt securities, including bank loans and certain equity securities (including non-U.S. securities), for which closing prices are not readily available or are deemed to not reflect readily available market prices, and are valued using an independent pricing service. Debt investments are valued based on quotations received from independent pricing services or from dealers who make markets in such securities. Bank loan investments, which are included as debt investments, are generally priced at the average mid-point of bid and ask quotations obtained from a third-party pricing service. Fair value may also be based upon valuations obtained from independent third-party brokers or dealers utilizing matrix pricing models that consider information regarding securities with similar characteristics. In certain instances, fair value has been determined utilizing discounted cash flow analyses or single broker non-binding quotes. Depending on the nature of the inputs, these assets are classified as Level 1, 2 or 3 within the fair value measurement hierarchy. Level 3 investments include debt and equity securities that are not widely traded, are illiquid or are priced by dealers based on pricing models used by market makers in the security.

Notes payable represent notes issued by CIP CLOs and are measured using the measurement alternative in ASU 2014-13. Accordingly, the fair value of CLO liabilities was measured as the fair value of CLO assets less the sum of (i) the fair value of the beneficial interests held by the Company, and (ii) the carrying value of any beneficial interests that represent compensation for services. The fair value of the beneficial interests held by the Company is based on third-party pricing information without adjustment.

Short sales are transactions in which a security is sold that is not owned or is owned but there is no intention to deliver, in anticipation that the price of the security will decline. Short sales are recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets within other liabilities of CIP and are classified as Level 1 based on the underlying equity security.

The securities purchased payable at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 approximated fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments.

The following table is a reconciliation of assets of CIP for Level 3 investments for which significant unobservable inputs were used to determine fair value:

(1)The investments that are categorized as Level 3 were valued utilizing third-party pricing information without adjustment. Transfers in and/or out of levels are reflected when significant inputs, including market inputs or performance attributes, used for the fair value measurement become observable/unobservable at period end.

Nonconsolidated VIEs
The Company serves as the collateral manager for other CLOs that are not consolidated. The assets and liabilities of these CLOs reside in bankruptcy remote, special purpose entities in which the Company has no ownership of, nor holds any notes issued by, the CLOs, and provides neither recourse nor guarantees. The Company has determined that the investment management fees it receives for serving as collateral manager for these CLOs did not represent a variable interest as (i) the fees the Company earns are compensation for services provided and are commensurate with the level of effort required to provide the investment management services, (ii) the Company does not hold other interests in the CLOs that individually, or in the aggregate, would absorb more than an insignificant amount of the CLOs' expected losses or receive more than an insignificant amount of the CLOs' expected residual return, and (iii) the investment management arrangement only includes terms, conditions and amounts that are customarily present in arrangements for similar services negotiated at arm's length.
    
The Company has interests in certain other VIEs that the Company does not consolidate as it is not the primary beneficiary since its interest in these entities does not provide the Company with the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entities' economic performance. At June 30, 2023, the carrying value and maximum risk of loss related to the Company's interest in these VIEs was $25.4 million.

(3)Averages are calculated as follows:
–Funds - average daily or weekly balances
–Retail Separate Accounts - prior-quarter ending balances
–Institutional Accounts - average of month-end balances

Average fees earned represent investment management fees, net of revenue-related adjustments, divided by average net assets, excluding the impact of consolidated investment products ("CIP"). Revenue-related adjustments are based on specific agreements and reflect the portion of investment management fees passed-through to third-party client intermediaries for services to investors in sponsored investment products. Fund fees are calculated based on average daily or weekly net assets. Retail separate account fees are calculated based on the end of the preceding or current quarter’s asset values or on an average of month-end balances. Institutional account fees are calculated based on an average of month-end balances, an average of current quarter’s asset values or on a combination of the underlying cash flows and the principal value of the
23
product. Average fees earned will vary based on several factors, including the asset mix and expense reimbursements to the funds.

The average fee rate earned on all products for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 increased by 1.0 basis points and 0.5 basis points, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year primarily due to the addition of alternative strategies with higher fee rates from the AlphaSimplex acquisition.

Operating income decreased $17.6 million to $39.0 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to $56.7 million in the second quarter of 2022, due primarily to the aforementioned lower revenue and increased operating expenses due to the addition of AlphaSimplex.

Investment Management Fees
Investment management fees are earned based on a percentage of assets under management and are paid pursuant to the terms of the respective investment management contracts, which generally require monthly or quarterly payments. Investment management fees decreased by $5.0 million, or 2.7%, and $47.4 million, or 12.1%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year due primarily to lower average assets under management, partially offset by the addition of AlphaSimplex.

Employment Expenses
Employment expenses consist of fixed and variable compensation and related employee benefit costs. Employment expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were $104.7 million and $203.3 million, respectively, which represented an increase of $15.3 million, or 17.2%, and $8.0 million, or 4.1%, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to the addition of AlphaSimplex, which includes retention payments to employees as part of the transaction consideration that were classified as compensation expense.

Distribution and Other Asset-Based Expenses
Distribution and other asset-based expenses consist primarily of payments to third-party client intermediaries for providing services to investors in sponsored investment products. These payments are primarily based on assets under management. Distribution and other asset-based expenses also include the amortization of deferred sales commissions related to up-front commissions on shares sold without a front-end sales charge to shareholders. The deferred sales commissions are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period commissions are recovered from distribution fee revenues and contingent sales charges received upon redemption of shares.

Other Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses primarily consist of investment research and technology costs, professional fees, travel-and distribution-related costs, rent and occupancy expenses, and other business costs. Other operating expenses increased $1.9 million, or 6.1%, and $0.9 million, or 1.5%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the
25
same periods in the prior year primarily due to the addition of AlphaSimplex.

Other operating expenses of CIP remained consistent during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the respective periods in the prior year.

Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration
Contingent consideration related to the Company's acquisitions are fair valued on each reporting date taking into consideration changes in various estimates, including underlying performance estimates, discount rates and amount of time until the conditions of the contingent payments are achieved. The change in fair value is recorded in the current period as a gain or loss. The $9.7 million change in fair value of contingent consideration for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the respective periods in the prior year was primarily attributable to changes in underlying performance estimates and discount rates.

Depreciation Expense

Depreciation expense increased $0.5 million, or 54.4%, and $0.7 million, or 38.6% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the respective periods in the prior year. The increases are primarily due to the addition of AlphaSimplex, as well as software and equipment purchases made in the current year periods.

Amortization Expense
Amortization expense consists of the amortization of definite-lived intangible assets over their estimated useful lives. Amortization expense increased $1.2 million, or 8.1%, and $0.9 million, or 3.1% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year primarily due to the addition of AlphaSimplex.

Interest expense increased $3.4 million, or 120.1%, and $6.1 million, or 119.9% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year attributable to higher average interest rates and higher average debt balances during the current year periods.

Interest and Dividend Income
Interest and dividend income increased $2.1 million, or 405.7%, and $5.1 million, or 590.0%, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year primarily attributable to higher interest earned on cash balances during the current year periods compared to prior year periods.

Interest and Dividend Income of Investments of CIP    
Interest and dividend income of investments of CIP increased $25.5 million, or 113.7%, and $51.9 million, or 121.3%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same period in the prior year. The increases were primarily due to higher average interest rates during the current year periods and the addition of a CLO in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Interest Expense of CIP    
Interest expense of CIP represents interest expense on the notes payable of CIP. Interest expense of CIP increased $24.3 million, or 168.7%, and $47.4 million, or 179.0%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year.

The lower estimated effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to excess tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation and the change in valuation allowances in the current year related to the tax effects of unrealized gains on certain of our investments. The higher effective tax rate in the prior-year period was due to valuation allowances recorded for the tax effects of unrealized losses on certain of our investments.

Financing activities(210,727)(240,177)29,450 (12.3)%

Overview
At June 30, 2023, we had $201.5 million of cash and cash equivalents and $123.3 million of investments, which included $89.3 million of investment securities, compared to $338.2 million of cash and cash equivalents and $100.3 million of investments, which included $77.0 million of investment securities, at December 31, 2022.

Uses of Capital
Our main uses of capital related to operating activities comprise employee compensation and related benefit costs, which include annual incentive compensation, other operating expenses, which primarily consist of investment research, technology costs, professional fees, distribution and occupancy costs, interest on our indebtedness and income taxes. Annual incentive compensation, which is one of the largest annual operating cash expenditures, is typically paid in the first quarter of the year. In the first quarters of 2023 and 2022, we paid $142.1 million and $151.6 million, respectively, in incentive compensation earned during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

In addition to operating activities, other uses of cash could include: (i) investments in organic growth, including seeding or launching new products and expanding distribution; (ii) debt principal payments through scheduled amortization, excess cash flow payment requirements or additional paydowns; (iii) dividend payments to common stockholders; (iv) repurchases of our common stock, or withholding obligations for the net settlement of employee share transactions; (v) investments in our infrastructure; (vi) investments in inorganic growth opportunities that may require upfront and/or future payments; (vii) integration costs, including restructuring and severance, related to acquisitions, if any; and (viii) purchases of affiliate equity interests.
    
Capital and Reserve Requirements
We operate an SEC registered broker-dealer subsidiary that is subject to certain rules regarding minimum net capital. The broker-dealer is required to maintain a ratio of "aggregate indebtedness" to "net capital," as defined, which may not exceed 15 to 1 and must also maintain a minimum amount of net capital. Failure to meet these requirements could result in adverse consequences to us, including additional reporting requirements, a lower required ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital, or interruption of our business. At June 30, 2023, the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital of our broker-dealer was below the maximum allowed, and net capital was significantly greater than the required minimum.

Balance Sheet
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in banks and money market fund investments. Investments consist primarily of investments in our sponsored funds. CIP represent investment products for which we provide investment management
28
services and where we either have a controlling financial interest or are considered the primary beneficiary of an investment product that is considered a variable interest entity.

Operating Cash Flow
Net cash provided by operating activities of $102.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased by $64.5 million from net cash provided by operating activities of $37.6 million for the same period in the prior year primarily due to an increase of $77.7 million in net sales of investments by CIP.

Investing Cash Flow
Cash flows from investing activities consist primarily of capital expenditures and other investing activities related to our business operations. Net cash used in investing activities was $123.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $24.4 million in the same period for the prior year. The increase in cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior year period is primarily due to the acquisition of AlphaSimplex.

Financing Cash Flow
Cash flows from financing activities consist primarily of transactions related to our common shares, issuance and repayment of debt by us and CIP, payments of contingent consideration and changes to noncontrolling interests. Net cash used in financing activities decreased by $29.5 million to $210.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $240.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The net change was primarily due to a $60.0 million decrease in share repurchases, an increase of $50.0 million in net borrowings on the credit agreement in the current year and lower contingent consideration payments, partially offset by a $92.3 million increase on the repayment on borrowings of CIP.

Credit Agreement
The Company's credit agreement, most recently amended on June 20, 2023, changing the base interest rate from LIBOR to SOFR, (the "Credit Agreement"), comprises (i) a $275.0 million term loan with a seven-year term (the "Term Loan") expiring in September 2028, and (ii) a $175.0 million revolving credit facility with a five-year term expiring in September 2026. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company repaid $1.4 million outstanding under its Term Loan. At June 30, 2023, $260.2 million was outstanding under the Term Loan. In accordance with ASC 835, Interest, the amounts outstanding under the Company's Term Loan are presented on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet net of related debt issuance costs, which were $6.0 million as of June 30, 2023. On April 3, 2023, the Company borrowed $50.0 million under the revolving credit facility to partially finance its acquisition of AlphaSimplex, $40.0 million of which was outstanding at June 30, 2023 (see Note 4 for further information). On August 4, 2023, the Company repaid $20.0 million outstanding under the credit facility.
