WEST PALM BEACH, FL, May 6, 2024 — AMG, a leading partner to independent investment management firms globally, today reported its financial and operating results for the first quarter of 2024.

Jay C. Horgen, President and Chief Executive Officer of AMG, said:

“In the first quarter, AMG reported Economic Earnings per share of $5.37, a 28% increase relative to the year-ago quarter, reflecting our Affiliates’ excellent business and investment performance and the positive impact of our capital allocation strategy, including growth investments in both new and existing Affiliates.

“Our strategy to magnify the advantages of our Affiliates, while also preserving their independence and ownership culture, was illustrated in the first quarter by our ongoing collaboration with Pantheon. Supported by our long-term engagement on succession planning, Pantheon announced its management transition plan, entering its next phase of growth as it builds on its accelerating business momentum; the firm now manages more than $65 billion(i) in assets within private markets. In addition, during the quarter we continued to invest our capital and resources alongside Pantheon to support their strategic growth in delivering private markets solutions to the global wealth market, including seeding of a new private equity fund for the non-U.S. wealth market; partnering to launch, seed, and distribute a first-of its kind private credit secondaries fund for the U.S. wealth market; and the ongoing distribution support of the AMG Pantheon Fund — which now has more than $3 billion in assets under management.

“We also further positioned AMG for the future during the quarter. Having recently extended the duration of our debt to more than 20 years, we enhanced our financial flexibility and our balance sheet is in an excellent position. Our organization is thriving; we have developed and added outstanding talent, as Tom Wojcik became our Chief Operating Officer, reflecting our efforts to magnify our Affiliates’ long-term success, especially through collaboration on numerous initiatives in capital formation, and Dava Ritchea joined AMG as Chief Financial Officer, bringing extensive experience in private markets and liquid alternatives. Given our and our Affiliates’ distinct competitive advantages, we continue to be uniquely positioned to create meaningful incremental shareholder value over time.”

Notes

(1) Earnings per share (diluted) adjusts for the dilutive effect of the potential issuance of incremental shares of our common stock.

We assume the settlement of all of our Redeemable non-controlling interests using the maximum number of shares permitted under our arrangements. The issuance of shares and the related income acquired are excluded from the calculation if an assumed purchase of Redeemable non-controlling interests would be anti-dilutive to diluted earnings per share.

We are required to apply the if-converted method to our outstanding junior convertible securities when calculating Earnings per share (diluted). Under the if-converted method, shares that are issuable upon conversion are deemed outstanding, regardless of whether the securities are contractually convertible into our common stock at that time. For this calculation, the interest expense (net of tax) attributable to these dilutive securities is added back to Net income (controlling interest), reflecting the assumption that the securities have been converted. Issuable shares for these securities and related interest expense are excluded from the calculation if an assumed conversion would be anti-dilutive to diluted earnings per share.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

Average shares outstanding (diluted)	39.9		40.1

(2) As supplemental information, we provide non-GAAP performance measures of Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest), Economic net income (controlling interest), and Economic earnings per share. We believe that many investors use our Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest) when comparing our financial performance to other companies in the investment management industry. Management utilizes these non-GAAP performance measures to assess our performance before our share of certain non-cash GAAP expenses primarily related to the acquisition of interests in Affiliates and to improve comparability between periods. Economic net income (controlling interest) and Economic earnings per share are used by management and our Board of Directors as our principal performance benchmarks, including as one of the measures for determining executive compensation. These non-GAAP performance measures are provided in addition to, but not as a substitute for, Net income (controlling interest), Earnings per share, or other GAAP performance measures. For additional information on our non-GAAP measures, see our most recent Annual and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-K and 10-Q, respectively, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest) represents our performance before our share of interest expense, income and certain non-income based taxes, depreciation, amortization, impairments, gains and losses related to Affiliate Transactions, and non-cash items such as certain Affiliate equity activity, gains and losses on our contingent payment obligations, and unrealized gains and losses on seed capital, general partner commitments, and other strategic investments. Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest) is also adjusted to include realized economic gains and losses related to these seed capital, general partner commitments, and other strategic investments.

Under our Economic net income (controlling interest) definition, we adjust Net income (controlling interest) for our share of pre-tax intangible amortization and impairments related to intangible assets (including the portion attributable to equity method investments in Affiliates) because these expenses do not correspond to the changes in the value of these assets, which do not diminish predictably over time. We also adjust for deferred taxes attributable to intangible assets because we believe it is unlikely these accruals will be used to settle material tax obligations. Further, we adjust for gains and losses related to Affiliate Transactions, net of tax, and other economic items. Other economic items include certain Affiliate equity activity, gains and losses related to contingent payment obligations, tax windfalls and shortfalls from share-based compensation, unrealized gains and losses on seed capital, general partner commitments, and other strategic investments, and realized economic gains and losses related to these seed capital, general partner commitments, and other strategic investments.

Economic earnings per share represents Economic net income (controlling interest) divided by the Average shares outstanding (adjusted diluted). In this calculation, we exclude the potential shares issued upon settlement of Redeemable non-controlling interests from Average shares outstanding (adjusted diluted) because we intend to settle those obligations without issuing shares, consistent with all prior Affiliate equity purchase transactions. The potential share issuance in connection with our junior convertible securities is measured using a “treasury stock” method. Under this method, only the net number of shares of common stock equal to the value of the junior convertible securities in excess of par, if any, are deemed to be outstanding. We believe the inclusion of net shares under a treasury stock method best reflects the benefit of the increase in available capital resources (which

could be used to repurchase shares of our common stock) that occurs when these securities are converted and we are relieved of our debt obligation.
