Artisan Partners Asset Management Inc. Reports 1Q24 Results
Milwaukee, WI - April 23, 2024 - Artisan Partners Asset Management Inc. (NYSE: APAM) (the “Company” or “Artisan Partners”) today reported its results for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and declared a quarterly dividend.
Chief Executive Officer Eric Colson said: "April 1 marked the 10-year anniversary of the Artisan High Income strategy managed by the Artisan Credit team. Since inception in 2014, the High Income strategy has generated average annual returns of 6.18%, after fees, compared to 4.36% for the BofA US High Yield Index. That is nearly 42% more return on average per year for 10 years. Over that period, the Artisan High Income Fund is ranked #2 out of 135 funds in the Morningstar High Yield Bond category and has had $9.2 billion of cumulative net inflows, including $1.5 billion in 2023 and $866 million in the first quarter of 2024.
“When Bryan Krug joined Artisan Partners in 2013 to establish the Credit team, he had already established a successful investment and business record at his prior firm. But he wanted the freedom to build an investment franchise designed specifically for his philosophy and process. He wanted control over investment capacity, believing investments should be made based on market opportunity, not distribution demand. And he wanted his ideas implemented in strategies that he managed, knowing this was the best way to maximize alpha for clients.
“Over the last 10 years we have partnered with Bryan to build a premier credit franchise: a team, a culture, a track record, a business, and a brand. We are using the same methodical franchise development process that we pursue with each of our 11 investment teams, tailored to each team’s specific needs, style, and phase of development. As we develop franchises, we compound investment and business value and create multiple embedded options for future growth.
“In 2017, we launched the Artisan Credit Opportunities strategy, an alternative credit strategy that uses a broader array of securities, long and short positions, and greater flexibility across the credit and liquidity spectrum to generate average annual returns of 10.24%, after fees, since inception. In January 2022, we launched the Artisan Floating Rate strategy which provides clients with access to the Credit team’s long-demonstrated alpha-generating skill in the leveraged loan marketplace and a portfolio consisting largely of floating rate loans resulting in minimal duration risk. And in 2023, we closed $130 million of commitments to Artisan Dislocation, a closed-end draw-down fund that will allow the Credit team to put new capital to work expeditiously in the event credit markets become dislocated.
“We congratulate Bryan and the Credit team for establishing a credit platform with broad degrees of freedom and capabilities. We believe that great talent transcends any narrow categorization. Today the Credit team operates across an array of securities, multiple asset classes, and a spectrum of client and vehicle types. This is exactly what we aim to build with our investment franchises at Artisan Partners.
“Having said that, we believe the Credit team is still early in its journey. When we study other premier credit franchises, many were founded decades ago. Like the Credit team, many layered in new capabilities, strategies, and businesses over a multi-decade period while remaining focused on the paramount obligation to existing clients. We are extremely excited to continue building the Artisan Credit franchise, with a particular focus on the team’s alternative capabilities and business.
“For those studying our business, the Credit team better illustrates what we aim to do and how we plan to proceed than any quarterly or annual financial outcome. Our business is to attract and retain great investment talent, place that talent in an ideal environment to generate and compound wealth for clients, and partner with that talent to build durable investment franchises. We have a repeatable process for doing this. Our success with the Credit team demonstrates our ability to execute our philosophy and process beyond public equities.
“Reflecting on the last decade with Bryan, I am also struck that Artisan Partners is in many ways just getting started. Many of our investment capabilities, teams, and strategies have come online in the last decade, including our first fixed income strategy in 2014 and alternative strategy in 2017. Our approach takes decades, not years or quarters. By establishing a solid foundation and developing investment teams methodically, the resulting investment franchises are more stable, longer-lasting, and have more vectors for future growth.
“We now have 11 investment strategies with track records of greater than 10 years managed across seven different investment teams. Ten have generated meaningful alpha over their benchmark indexes since inception and after fees. The average tenure of the portfolios managers on these 11 strategies is 21 years. Seven of the strategies continue to be managed by their founding portfolio manager.
“Establishing and maintaining that type of performance and stability over long periods takes time. We take the time to do things right, minimize mistakes, and establish trust. Based on our experience, we expect long-term growth will follow—sometimes from expected business development, sometimes from bull markets, and sometimes in ways we never could have predicted ahead of time.”

March 2024 Quarter Compared to December 2023 Quarter
AUM increased to $160.4 billion at March 31, 2024, an increase of $10.2 billion, or 7%, compared to $150.2 billion at December 31, 2023, primarily due to $10.8 billion of market appreciation, partially offset by $0.5 billion of net client cash outflows and $0.1 billion of Artisan Funds' distributions not reinvested. For the quarter, average AUM increased 10% to $154.2 billion from $140.3 billion in the December 2023 quarter.
Revenues of $264.4 million in the March 2024 quarter increased $15.4 million, or 6%, from $249.0 million in the December 2023 quarter, primarily due to higher average AUM in the March 2024 quarter, partially offset by a decline in performance fees in the quarter and one less calendar day in the March 2024 quarter.
Operating expenses of $186.7 million in the March 2024 quarter increased $14.1 million or 8% from $172.6 million in the December 2023 quarter, primarily due to a $4.0 million increase in incentive compensation expense largely due to higher revenues in the March 2024 quarter, the higher first quarter seasonal compensation and benefit expenses of $5.9 million which include employer funded retirement and health care contributions and payroll taxes, and an increase in long-term incentive compensation costs of $3.7 million of which $2.1 million was a result of the retirement acceleration feature on awards granted in the March 2024 quarter.
GAAP operating margin was 29.4% in the March 2024 quarter, compared to 30.7% in the December 2023 quarter. Adjusted operating margin was 30.9% in the March 2024 quarter, compared to 32.1% in the December 2023 quarter.
Within non-operating income (expense), investment gains (losses) are comprised of net investment gains (losses) of consolidated and nonconsolidated investment products, including investments held to economically hedge compensation plans (collectively referred to as "investments in sponsored products"). Total investment gains, which include gains attributable to third party shareholders of consolidated investment products, were $31.3 million in the March 2024 quarter, compared to gains of $36.2 million in the December 2023 quarter. Artisan Partners' portion of the gains from investments in sponsored products was $16.5 million in the March 2024 quarter, compared to gains of $19.2 million in the December 2023 quarter.
GAAP net income was $59.5 million, or $0.84 per basic and diluted share, in the March 2024 quarter, compared to GAAP net income of $64.8 million, or $0.92 per basic and diluted share, in the December 2023 quarter. Adjusted net income was $61.6 million, or $0.76 per adjusted share, in the March 2024 quarter, compared to adjusted net income of $62.8 million, or $0.78 per adjusted share, in the December 2023 quarter.
March 2024 Quarter Compared to March 2023 Quarter
AUM at March 31, 2024 was $160.4 billion, up 16% from $138.5 billion at March 31, 2023. The change in AUM from the prior year quarter was primarily due to $26.0 billion of investment returns, partially offset by $3.4 billion of net client cash outflows and $0.7 billion of Artisan Funds' distributions not reinvested. Average AUM for the March 2024 quarter was $154.2 billion, 14% higher than average AUM for the March 2023 quarter.
Revenues of $264.4 million in the March 2024 quarter increased $29.9 million, or 13%, from $234.5 million in the March 2023 quarter, primarily due to higher average AUM.
Operating expenses of $186.7 million in the March 2024 quarter increased $20.5 million, or 12%, from $166.2 million in the March 2023 quarter, primarily due to a $10.5 million increase in incentive compensation largely due to higher revenues in the March 2024 quarter. Long-term incentive compensation costs also increased $4.8 million as a result of the $2.1 million of additional expense from the retirement acceleration feature on awards granted in the March 2024 quarter in addition to the market valuation impact on compensation plans of $2.2 million. A 4% increase in full-time associates also led to increases in other compensation and benefit related expenses.
GAAP operating margin was 29.4% in the March 2024 quarter, compared to 29.1% in the March 2023 quarter. Adjusted operating margin was 30.9% in the March 2024 quarter, compared to 29.9% in the March 2023 quarter.
Total investment gains, which include gains attributable to third party shareholders of consolidated investment products, were $31.3 million in the March 2024 quarter, compared to gains of $23.7 million in the March 2023 quarter. Artisan Partners' portion of the gains from investments in sponsored products was $16.5 million in the March 2024 quarter, compared to gains of $14.3 million in the March 2023 quarter.
GAAP net income was $59.5 million, or $0.84 per basic and diluted share, in the March 2024 quarter, compared to GAAP net income of $50.8 million, or $0.72 per basic and diluted share, in the March 2023 quarter. Adjusted net income was $61.6 million, or $0.76 per adjusted share, in the March 2024 quarter, compared to adjusted net income of $51.8 million, or $0.64 per adjusted share, in the March 2023 quarter.

Capital Management & Balance Sheet
Cash and cash equivalents were $184.2 million at March 31, 2024, compared to $141.0 million at December 31, 2023. During the March 31, 2024 quarter, the Company paid a variable quarterly dividend of $0.68 per share of Class A common stock and a special dividend of $0.34 per share of Class A common stock. The Company had total borrowings of $200.0 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
During the March 2024 quarter, the Company invested $38.4 million of cash to economically hedge the franchise capital long-term incentive awards that were approved in January 2024.
During the March 2024 quarter, limited partners of Artisan Partners Holdings exchanged 992,454 common units for 992,454 Class A common shares. The exchanges increased the Company’s public float of Class A common stock by 992,454 shares or 1.4%.
Total stockholders’ equity was $353.8 million at March 31, 2024, compared to $351.4 million at December 31, 2023. The Company had 69.9 million Class A common shares outstanding at March 31, 2024. The Company’s debt leverage ratio, calculated in accordance with its loan agreements, was 0.5x at March 31, 2024.
Dividend
The Company’s board of directors declared a variable quarterly dividend of $0.61 per share of Class A common stock with respect to the March 2024 quarter. The variable quarterly dividend represents approximately 80% of the cash generated in the March 2024 quarter and will be paid on May 31, 2024, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 17, 2024. Based on our projections and subject to change, we expect some portion of the 2024 dividend payments to constitute a return of capital for tax purposes.
Subject to board approval each quarter, we currently expect to pay a quarterly dividend of approximately 80% of the cash the Company generates each quarter. We expect cash generation will generally equal adjusted net income plus long-term incentive compensation expense, less cash reserved for future franchise capital awards (which we expect will generally approximate 4% of investment management revenues each quarter), with additional adjustments made for certain other sources and uses of cash, including capital expenditures. After the end of the year, our board will consider payment of a special dividend.

Forward-Looking Statements and Other Disclosures
Certain statements in this release, and other written or oral statements made by or on behalf of the Company, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Statements regarding future events and our future performance, as well as management’s current expectations, beliefs, plans, estimates or projections relating to the future, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of these laws. These forward-looking statements are only predictions based on current expectations and projections about future events. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, and there are important factors that could cause actual results, level of activity, performance, actions or achievements to differ materially from the results, level of activity, performance, actions or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. These factors include: the loss of key investment professionals or senior management, adverse market or economic conditions for whatever reason, poor performance of our investment strategies, change in the legislative and regulatory environment in which we operate, operational or technical errors or other matters that cause damage to our reputation, and other factors disclosed in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including those factors listed under the caption entitled “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 22, 2024, as such factors may be updated from time to time. Our periodic and current reports are accessible on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements in order to reflect events or circumstances that may arise after the date of this release.
Assets Under Management (AUM) refers to the assets of pooled vehicles and separate accounts to which Artisan Partners provides services. Artisan Partners’ AUM as reported here includes assets for which Artisan Partners does not have investment discretion, including certain assets for which we earn only investment-related service fees. Non-discretionary assets are reported on a one-month lag. Artisan's definition of AUM is not based on any definition of Assets Under Management contained in the ADV or in any of Artisan's fund management agreements.
Results for any investment strategy described herein, and for different investment products within a strategy, are affected by numerous factors, including different material market or economic conditions; different investment management fee rates, brokerage commissions and other expenses; and the reinvestment of dividends or other earnings. The returns for any strategy may be positive or negative, and past performance does not guarantee future results.
Unless otherwise noted, composite returns have been presented gross of investment advisory fees applied to client accounts, but include applicable trade commissions and transaction costs. Management fees, when reflected, would reduce the results presented for an investor in an account managed within a composite. Net-of-fees composite returns presented in these materials were calculated using the highest model investment advisory fees applicable to portfolios within the composite. Fees may be higher for certain pooled vehicles, and the composite may include accounts with performance-based fees. Index returns do not reflect the payment of fees and expenses. Certain Artisan composite returns may be represented by a single account.
In these materials, we present Value Added, which is the difference between an Artisan strategy's average annual return and the return of its respective benchmark. We may also present Excess Returns (alpha), which are an estimate of the amount in dollars by which Artisan's investment strategies have outperformed or underperformed their respective benchmark. Excess Returns are calculated by (i) multiplying a strategy's beginning-of-year AUM by the difference between the returns (in basis points) of the strategy (gross of fees, unless otherwise indicated) and the benchmark for the ensuing year and (ii) summing all strategies' Excess Returns for each year calculated. Market Returns include all changes in AUM not included in Excess Returns, client cash flows and Artisan Funds distributions not reinvested. The benchmark used for purposes of presenting a strategy’s performance and calculating Value Added and Excess Returns is generally the market index most commonly used by our clients to compare the performance of the relevant strategy. For certain strategies that are managed for absolute return, the benchmark used for purposes of presenting a strategy’s performance and calculating Value Added and Excess Returns is the index used by the Company’s management to evaluate the performance of the strategy.

Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Information
The Company’s management uses non-GAAP measures (referred to as “adjusted” measures) of net income to evaluate the profitability and efficiency of the underlying operations of the business and as a factor when considering net income available for distributions and dividends. These adjusted measures remove the impact of (1) net gain (loss) on the tax receivable agreements (if any), (2) compensation expense (reversal) related to market valuation changes in compensation plans, and (3) net investment gain (loss) of investment products. These adjustments also remove the non-operational complexities of the Company’s structure by adding back noncontrolling interests and assuming all income of Artisan Partners Holdings is allocated to APAM. Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful information to analyze the Company’s profitability and efficiency between periods and over time. The Company has included these non-GAAP measures to provide investors with the same financial metrics used by management to manage the Company.
Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s non-GAAP measures may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even if similar terms are used to identify such measures. The Company’s non-GAAP measures are as follows:
•Adjusted net income represents net income excluding the impact of (1) net gain (loss) on the tax receivable agreements (if any), (2) compensation expense (reversal) related to market valuation changes in compensation plans, and (3) net investment gain (loss) of investment products. Adjusted net income also reflects income taxes assuming the vesting of all unvested Class A share-based awards and as if all outstanding limited partnership units of Artisan Partners Holdings had been exchanged for Class A common stock of APAM on a one-for-one basis. Assuming full vesting and exchange, all income of Artisan Partners Holdings is treated as if it were allocated to APAM, and the adjusted provision for income taxes represents an estimate of income tax expense at an effective rate reflecting APAM's current federal, state and local income statutory tax rates. The adjusted tax rate was 24.7% for all periods presented.
•Adjusted net income per adjusted share is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by adjusted shares. The number of adjusted shares is derived by assuming the vesting of all unvested Class A share-based awards and the exchange of all outstanding limited partnership units of Artisan Partners Holdings for Class A common stock of APAM on a one-for-one basis.
•Adjusted operating income represents the operating income of the consolidated company excluding compensation expense related to market valuation changes in compensation plans.
•Adjusted operating margin is calculated by dividing adjusted operating income by total revenues.
•Adjusted EBITDA represents adjusted net income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense.
Net gain (loss) on the tax receivable agreements represents the income (expense) associated with the change in estimate of amounts payable under the tax receivable agreements entered into in connection with APAM’s initial public offering and related reorganization.
Compensation expense (reversal) related to market valuation changes in compensation plans represents the expense (income) associated with the change in the long-term incentive award liability resulting from investment returns of the underlying investment products. Because the compensation expense impact of the investment market exposure is economically hedged, management believes it is useful to reflect the expected net income offset in the calculation of adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, and adjusted EBITDA. The related investment gain (loss) on the underlying investments is included in the adjustment for net investment gain (loss) of investment products.
Net investment gain (loss) of investment products represents the non-operating income (expense) related to the Company’s investments, in both consolidated sponsored investment products and nonconsolidated sponsored investment products, including investments in sponsored investment products held to economically hedge compensation plans. Excluding these non-operating market gains or losses on investments provides greater transparency to evaluate the profitability and efficiency of the underlying operations of the business. Interest income generated on cash and cash equivalents is considered part of normal operations, and therefore, is not excluded from adjusted net income.

______________________________________
1 We measure the results of our “composites”, which represent the aggregate performance of all discretionary client accounts, including pooled investment vehicles, invested in the same strategy except those accounts with respect to which we believe client-imposed restrictions may have a material impact on portfolio construction and those accounts managed in a currency other than U.S. dollars (the results of these accounts, which represented approximately 15% of our assets under management at March 31, 2024, are maintained in separate composites, which are not presented in these materials). Returns for periods less than one year are not annualized.
2 AUM for certain strategies include the following amounts for which Artisan Partners provides investment models to managed account sponsors (reported on a one-month lag): Artisan Sustainable Emerging Markets $82 million.
3 Value-added is the amount, in basis points, by which the average annual gross composite return of each of our strategies has outperformed or underperformed its respective benchmark. See Forward-Looking Statements and Other Disclosures for further information on the benchmark indexes used. Value-added for periods less than one year is not annualized.
4 Effective March 31, 2024, the International Small-Mid team, managing the Non-U.S. Small-Mid Growth strategy, became its own autonomous investment franchise. Previously, the Non-U.S. Small-Mid Growth Strategy was part of the Global Equity team.
