ARTISAN PARTNERS ASSET MANAGEMENT INC.
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
(U.S. currencies in thousands, except share and per share amounts and as otherwise indicated)
Note 1. Nature of Business and Organization
Nature of Business
Artisan Partners Asset Management Inc. (“APAM”), through its subsidiaries, is an investment management firm focused on providing high-value added, active investment strategies to sophisticated clients globally. APAM and its subsidiaries are hereafter referred to collectively as “Artisan” or the “Company.”
Artisan’s autonomous investment teams manage a broad range of U.S., non-U.S. and global investment strategies that are diversified by asset class, market cap and investment style. Strategies are offered through multiple investment vehicles to accommodate a broad range of client mandates. Artisan offers its investment management services primarily to institutions and through intermediaries that operate with institutional-like decision-making processes and have long-term investment horizons.
Organization
On March 12, 2013, APAM completed its initial public offering (the “IPO”). APAM was formed for the purpose of becoming the general partner of Artisan Partners Holdings LP (“Artisan Partners Holdings” or “Holdings”) in connection with the IPO. Holdings is a holding company for the investment management business conducted under the name “Artisan Partners.” The reorganization (“IPO Reorganization”) established the necessary corporate structure to complete the IPO while at the same time preserving the ability of the firm to conduct operations through Holdings and its subsidiaries.
As its sole general partner, APAM controls the business and affairs of Holdings. As a result, APAM consolidates Holdings’ financial statements and records a noncontrolling interest for the equity interests in Holdings held by the limited partners of Holdings. At September 30, 2023, APAM held approximately 86% of the equity ownership interest in Holdings.
Holdings, together with its wholly owned subsidiary, Artisan Investments GP LLC, controls a 100% interest in Artisan Partners Limited Partnership (“APLP”), a multi-product investment management firm that is the principal operating subsidiary of Artisan Partners Holdings. APLP is registered as an investment adviser with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. APLP provides investment advisory services to traditional separate accounts and pooled investment vehicles, including Artisan Partners Funds, Inc. (“Artisan Funds”), Artisan Partners Global Funds plc (“Artisan Global Funds”), and Artisan sponsored private funds (“Artisan Private Funds”). Artisan Funds are a series of open-end mutual funds registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Artisan Global Funds is a family of Ireland-domiciled UCITS funds. Artisan Private Funds consist of a number of Artisan-sponsored unregistered pooled investment vehicles.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of presentation
The accompanying financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of such consolidated financial statements have been included. Such interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year results.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and accordingly they do not include all of the information and footnotes required in the annual consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes.
The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. As a result, the interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in APAM’s latest annual report on Form 10-K.
The accompanying financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and related rules and regulations of the SEC. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates or assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates or assumptions.

Principles of consolidation
Artisan’s policy is to consolidate all subsidiaries or other entities in which it has a controlling financial interest. The consolidation guidance requires an analysis to determine if an entity should be evaluated for consolidation using the voting interest entity (“VOE”) model or the variable interest entity (“VIE”) model. Under the VOE model, controlling financial interest is generally defined as a majority ownership of voting interests. Under the VIE model, controlling financial interest is defined as (i) the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entity and (ii) the right to receive potentially significant benefits or the obligation to absorb potentially significant losses.
Artisan generally consolidates VIEs in which it meets the power criteria and holds an equity ownership interest of greater than 10%. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of APAM and all subsidiaries or other entities in which APAM has a direct or indirect controlling financial interest. All material intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Artisan serves as the investment adviser to Artisan Funds, Artisan Global Funds and Artisan Private Funds. Artisan Funds and Artisan Global Funds are corporate entities, the business and affairs of which are managed by their respective boards of directors. The shareholders of the funds retain voting rights, including rights to elect and reelect members of their respective boards of directors. Each series of Artisan Funds is a VOE and is separately evaluated for consolidation under the VOE model. The shareholders of Artisan Global Funds lack simple majority liquidation rights, and as a result, each sub-fund of Artisan Global Funds is evaluated for consolidation under the VIE model. Artisan Private Funds are also evaluated for consolidation under the VIE model because third-party equity holders of the funds generally lack the ability to divest Artisan of its control of the funds.
From time to time, the Company makes investments in Artisan Funds, Artisan Global Funds, and Artisan Private Funds. If the investment results in a controlling financial interest, APAM consolidates the fund, and the underlying activity of the entire fund is included in Artisan’s unaudited consolidated financial statements. As of September 30, 2023, Artisan had a controlling financial interest in one series of Artisan Funds, five sub-funds of Artisan Global Funds, and two Artisan Private Funds and, as a result, these funds are included in Artisan’s unaudited consolidated financial statements. Because these consolidated investment products meet the definition of investment companies under U.S. GAAP, Artisan has retained the specialized industry accounting principles for investment companies in the consolidated financial statements. See Note 6, “Variable Interest Entities and Consolidated Investment Products” for additional details.
Reclassification
In conjunction with annual reporting on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company changed the presentation of its Consolidated Statements of Operations to recategorize expenditures for computers and mobile devices from “General and administrative” to “Communication and technology.” Amounts for the comparative period in fiscal 2022 presented herein have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. The reclassification had no impact on previously reported operating income, net income, or financial position. Management believes the revised presentation is more useful to readers of its financial statements.
Recent accounting pronouncements
None.

Note 4. Fair Value Measurements
The table below presents information about Artisan’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value and the valuation techniques Artisan utilized to determine such fair value. The financial instruments held by consolidated investment products are excluded from the table below and are presented in Note 6, “Variable Interest Entities and Consolidated Investment Products.”
In accordance with ASC 820, fair value is defined as the price that Artisan would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. The following three-tier fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value:
•Level 1 – Observable inputs such as quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical securities.
•Level 2 – Other significant observable inputs (including but not limited to quoted prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
•Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including Artisan’s own assumptions in determining fair value).
The following provides the hierarchy of inputs used to derive fair value of Artisan’s assets and liabilities that are financial instruments as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:
Assets and Liabilities at Fair Value
Total NAV Practical Expedient (No Fair Value Level) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3

Fair values determined based on Level 1 inputs utilize quoted market prices for identical assets. Level 1 assets generally consist of money market funds, open-end mutual funds and UCITS funds. Equity securities without a fair value level consist of the Company’s investments in Artisan Private Funds, which are measured at the underlying fund’s net asset value (“NAV”), using the ASC 820 practical expedient. The NAV is provided by the fund and is derived from the fair values of the underlying investments as of the reporting date. Cash maintained in demand deposit accounts is excluded from the table above.
Note 5. Borrowings
Artisan’s borrowings consist of the following as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:
Maturity(1)
As of September 30, 2023
As of December 31, 2022 Interest Rate Per Annum
Revolving credit agreement August 2027 $ —  $ —  NA
Senior notes
Series D August 2025 60,000  60,000  4.29  %
Series E August 2027 50,000  50,000  4.53  %
Series F August 2032 90,000  90,000  3.10  %
Total gross borrowings $ 200,000  $ 200,000 
Debt issuance costs $ (774) $ (950)
Total borrowings $ 199,226  $ 199,050 
(1) The Company is not required to make principal payments on any of the outstanding obligations prior to contractual maturity.
The fair value of borrowings was approximately $176.4 million as of September 30, 2023. Fair value was determined based on future cash flows, discounted to present value using current market interest rates. The inputs are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as defined in Note 4, “Fair Value Measurements.”
The fixed interest rate on each series of unsecured notes is subject to a one percentage point increase in the event Holdings receives a below-investment grade rating and any such increase will continue to apply until an investment grade rating is received.
As of September 30, 2023, there were no borrowings outstanding under the $100.0 million revolving credit facility and the interest rate on the unused commitment was 0.15%.
Interest expense incurred on the unsecured notes and revolving credit agreement was $1.9 million and $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $5.8 million and $7.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Note 6. Variable Interest Entities and Consolidated Investment Products
Artisan serves as the investment adviser for various types of investment products, consisting of both VIEs and VOEs. Artisan consolidates an investment product if it has a controlling financial interest in the entity. See Note 2, ”Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.” Any such entities are collectively referred to herein as consolidated investment products or CIPs.
As of September 30, 2023, Artisan is considered to have a controlling financial interest in one series of Artisan Funds, five sub-funds of Artisan Global Funds and two Artisan Private Funds, with an aggregate direct equity investment in the consolidated investment products of $109.2 million.
Artisan’s maximum exposure to loss in connection with the assets and liabilities of CIPs is limited to its direct equity investment, while the potential benefit is limited to the management and performance fees received and the return on its equity investment. With the exception of Artisan’s direct equity investment, the assets of CIPs are not available to Artisan’s creditors, nor are they available to Artisan for general corporate purposes. In addition, third-party investors in the CIPs have no recourse to the general credit of the Company.
Management and performance fees earned from CIPs are eliminated from revenue upon consolidation. See Note 14, “Related Party Transactions” for additional information on management and performance fees earned from CIPs.
Third-party investors’ ownership interest in CIPs is presented as redeemable noncontrolling interests in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of financial condition as third-party investors have the right to withdraw their capital, subject to certain conditions. Net income attributable to third-party investors is reported as net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests - consolidated investment products in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations.

10

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company determined that it no longer had a controlling financial interest in one series of Artisan Funds as a result of third party capital contributions. Upon loss of control, the fund was deconsolidated and the related assets, liabilities, and equity of the fund were derecognized from the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. There was no net impact to the unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Artisan generally does not recognize a gain or loss upon deconsolidation of investment products as the assets and liabilities of CIPs are carried at fair value. Artisan’s $19.6 million direct equity investment was reclassified from investment assets of consolidated investment products to investment securities.
As of September 30, 2023, Artisan held direct equity investments of $10.8 million in VIEs for which the Company does not hold a controlling financial interest. These direct equity investments consisted of seed investments in sub-funds of Artisan Global Funds and Artisan Private Funds, both of which are accounted for under the equity method of accounting because Artisan has significant influence over the funds.
Fair Value Measurements - Consolidated Investment Products
Investments held by CIPs are reflected at fair value. Short and long positions on equity securities are valued based upon closing prices of the security on the exchange or market designated by the accounting agent or pricing vendor as the principal exchange. The closing price may represent last sale price, official closing price, a closing auction or other information depending on market convention. Short and long positions on fixed income instruments are valued at market value. Market values are generally evaluations based on prices provided by independent pricing vendors, which may consider, among other factors, the prices at which securities actually trade, broker-dealer quotations, pricing formulas, estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics and/or discounted cash flow models that might be applicable. Short term investments are comprised of repurchase agreements and U.S. Treasury obligations. Repurchase agreements are valued at cost plus accrued interest and U.S. treasury obligations are valued using the same principles as fixed income securities. Derivative assets and liabilities are generally comprised of put and call options on securities and indices and forward foreign currency contracts. Put and call options are valued at the mid price (average of bid price and ask price) as provided by the pricing vendor at the close of trading on the contract’s principal exchange. Open forward foreign currency contracts are valued using the market spot rate.
The following tables present the fair value hierarchy levels of assets and liabilities held by CIPs measured at fair value as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

Note 7. Noncontrolling Interests - Holdings
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests - Artisan Partners Holdings in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations represents the portion of earnings or loss attributable to the equity ownership interests in Holdings held by the limited partners of Holdings. As of September 30, 2023, APAM held approximately 86% of the equity ownership interests in Holdings.
Limited partners of Artisan Partners Holdings are entitled to exchange partnership units (along with a corresponding number of shares of Class B or C common stock of APAM) for shares of Class A common stock from time to time (the “Holdings Common Unit Exchanges”). The Holdings Common Unit Exchanges increase APAM’s equity ownership interest in Holdings and result in an increase to deferred tax assets and amounts payable under the tax receivable agreements. See Note 11, “Income Taxes and Related Payments.”
In order to maintain the one-to-one correspondence of the number of Holdings partnership units and APAM common shares, Holdings will issue one general partner (“GP”) unit to APAM for each share of Class A common stock issued by APAM. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, APAM’s equity ownership interest in Holdings increased as a result of the following transactions:
Holdings GP Units Limited Partnership Units Total APAM Ownership %
Balance at December 31, 2022 67,982,025  11,624,031  79,606,056  85  %

(1) The impact of the transaction on APAM’s ownership percentage was less than 1%.
12

Changes in ownership of Holdings are accounted for as equity transactions because APAM continues to have a controlling interest in Holdings. Additional paid-in capital and noncontrolling interests - Artisan Partners Holdings in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of financial condition are adjusted to reallocate Holdings’ historical equity to reflect the change in APAM’s ownership of Holdings.
The reallocation of equity had the following impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of financial condition:
Statements of Financial Condition  For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
2023 2022
Additional paid-in capital $ (696) $ (262)
Noncontrolling interests - Artisan Partners Holdings 773  291 
Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (77) (29)
Net impact to financial condition $ —  $ — 
In addition to the reallocation of historical equity, the change in ownership resulted in an increase to deferred tax assets and additional paid-in capital of $0.2 million and $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

(1) The Company’s employees to whom Artisan has granted equity have entered into a stockholders agreement with respect to all shares of APAM common stock they have acquired from the Company and any shares they may acquire from the Company in the future, pursuant to which they granted an irrevocable voting proxy to a Stockholders Committee. As of September 30, 2023, Artisan’s employees held 5,242,987 restricted shares of Class A common stock and all 2,456,534 outstanding shares of Class B common stock, all of which were subject to the agreement.
APAM is dependent on cash generated by Holdings to fund any dividends. Generally, Holdings will make distributions to all of its partners, including APAM, based on the proportionate share of ownership each has in Holdings. APAM will fund dividends to its stockholders from its proportionate share of those distributions after provision for its taxes and other obligations. APAM declared and paid the following dividends per share during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022:
Type of Dividend Class of Stock For the Three Months Ended September 30, For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
2023 2022 2023 2022

(1) There were 415,112 and 367,392 restricted stock units outstanding at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. In addition, there were 216,170 and 231,170 performance share units outstanding at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Based on the quarter-end status of the market and performance conditions, the 216,170 unvested performance share units would ultimately result in the issuance of 264,143 shares of Class A common stock if all other vesting conditions were met. Restricted stock units and performance share units are not reflected in the table because they are not considered outstanding or issued stock.
Each Class A, Class B, Class D and Class E common unit of Holdings (together with the corresponding share of Class B or Class C common stock) is exchangeable for one share of Class A common stock. The corresponding shares of Class B and Class C common stock are immediately canceled upon any such exchange.
Upon termination of employment with Artisan, an employee-partner’s Class B common units are exchanged for Class E common units and the corresponding shares of Class B common stock are canceled. APAM issues the former employee-partner a number of shares of Class C common stock equal to the former employee-partner’s number of Class E common units. Class E common units are exchangeable for Class A common stock subject to the same restrictions and limitations on exchange applicable to the other common units of Holdings.
Artisan Partners Holdings - Partners’ Equity
Holdings makes distributions of its net income to the holders of its partnership units for income taxes as required under the terms of the partnership agreement and also makes additional distributions under the terms of the partnership agreement as required. The distributions are recorded in the financial statements on the declaration date, or on the payment date in lieu of a declaration date. Holdings’ partnership distributions for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:
For the Three Months Ended September 30, For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
2023 2022 2023 2022
Holdings Partnership Distributions to Limited Partners $ 12,883  $ 12,026  $ 30,341  $ 43,721 
Holdings Partnership Distributions to APAM 72,419  64,441  169,102  227,165 
Total Holdings Partnership Distributions $ 85,302  $ 76,467  $ 199,443  $ 270,886 
The distributions are recorded as a reduction to consolidated stockholders’ equity, with the exception of distributions made to APAM, which are eliminated upon consolidation.

(2) All management fees and performance fees from consolidated investment products were eliminated upon consolidation and therefore are omitted from this table. See Note 14, “Related Party Transactions.”
The following table presents the balances of receivables related to contracts with customers:
Customer As of September 30, 2023 As of December 31, 2022
   Artisan Funds $ 6,096  $ 5,597

Non-customer receivables 7,412  13,648 
Accounts receivable $ 96,062  $ 98,634 
Artisan Funds and Artisan Global Funds are billed on the last day of each month. Artisan Funds and Artisan Global Funds make payments on the same day the invoice is received for the majority of the invoiced amount. The remainder of the invoice is generally paid in the month following receipt of the invoice. Separate accounts and other clients are generally billed on a monthly or quarterly basis, with payments due within 30 days of billing.
Artisan had no other contract assets or liabilities from contracts with customers as of September 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.
Non-customer receivables include state tax payments made on behalf of certain limited partners, which are then netted from subsequent distributions or payments to the limited partners, as well as redemptions of investments related to franchise capital that have not yet been collected.

(1) Excluding long-term incentive compensation expense

Incentive compensation
Cash incentive compensation paid to members of Artisan’s investment teams and members of its distribution team is generally based on formulas that are tied directly to revenues. The majority of this incentive compensation is earned on a quarterly basis and paid in the quarter following the quarter in which it was earned with the exception of fourth quarter incentive compensation which is earned and paid in the fourth quarter of the year. Cash incentive compensation paid to most other employees is determined based on individual performance and Artisan’s overall results during the applicable year and is generally paid on an annual basis.
Long-term incentive compensation awards consist of both APAM restricted share-based awards and long-term cash awards, which are referred to as franchise capital awards. These awards are described in more detail below.
Restricted share-based awards
APAM has granted a combination of restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, and performance share units (collectively referred to as “restricted share-based awards” or “awards”) of Class A common stock to employees.
Standard Restricted Shares. Standard restricted shares are generally subject to a pro rata five-year service vesting condition.
Career Shares. Career shares are generally subject to both (i) a pro rata five-year service vesting condition and (ii) a qualifying retirement (as defined in the award agreement) condition.
Franchise Shares. Like career shares, franchise shares are generally subject to both (i) a pro rata five-year service vesting condition and (ii) a qualifying retirement condition. In addition, franchise shares, which are only granted to investment team members, are subject to a Franchise Protection Clause, which provides that the number of shares that ultimately vest depends on whether certain conditions relating to client cash flows are met. If such conditions are not met, compensation cost related to unvested shares will be reversed.
Performance Share Units (PSUs). PSUs are generally subject to (i) a three-year service vesting condition, (ii) certain performance conditions related to the Company's adjusted operating margin and total shareholder return compared to a peer group during a three-year performance period, and (iii) for one-half of the PSUs eligible to vest at the end of the performance period, a qualifying retirement condition. The number of shares of Class A common stock that are ultimately issued in connection with each PSU award will depend upon the outcome of the performance, market and qualified retirement conditions. For the portion of a PSU award with a "performance condition" under ASC 718, expense is recognized over the service period if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved.
Compensation expense is recognized based on the estimated grant date fair value on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. The initial requisite service period is generally five years for restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, and three years for PSUs. The fair value of each award is equal to the market price of the Company's common stock on the grant date, except for PSUs with a "market condition" performance metric under ASC 718, which have a grant-date fair value based on a Monte Carlo valuation model.
Unvested restricted share-based awards are subject to forfeiture. Grantees are generally entitled to dividends or dividend equivalents on unvested and vested awards. 6,400,000 shares of Class A common stock were reserved and available for issuance under the Artisan Partners Asset Management, Inc. 2023 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (the "Plan") as of September 30, 2023, which includes 3,945,902 shares registered in the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, Artisan granted 515,702 restricted stock awards and 1,684 restricted stock units.
The following tables summarize the restricted share-based award activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2023:

(1) During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the 60,000 PSUs granted in 2020 met the requisite three-year performance conditions, resulting in the potential vesting of 150% of the PSUs, or 90,000 shares of Class A common stock. 45,000 shares of Class A common stock were promptly delivered at that time, while the remaining 45,000 PSUs remain subject to the qualified retirement vesting condition.
Based on the quarter-end status of the market and performance conditions, the 216,170 unvested PSUs would ultimately result in the issuance of 264,143 shares of Class A common stock if all other vesting conditions were met.
The unrecognized compensation expense for the unvested restricted stock awards and restricted stock units as of September 30, 2023 was $68.1 million with a weighted average recognition period of 3.2 years remaining. The unrecognized compensation expense for the unvested PSUs as of September 30, 2023 was $4.1 million with a weighted average recognition period of 2.0 years remaining.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company withheld a total of 187,287 restricted shares and paid a total of $6.8 million as a result of net share settlements to satisfy employee tax withholding obligations. These net share settlements had the effect of shares repurchased and retired by the Company, as they reduced the number of shares outstanding.
Long-term cash awards (franchise capital awards)
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, Artisan granted $39.0 million of franchise capital awards to investment team members in lieu of certain additional restricted share-based awards. The franchise capital awards are subject to the same long-term vesting and forfeiture provisions as restricted share-based awards. Prior to vesting, franchise capital awards are generally allocated to one or more of the investment strategies managed by the award recipient's investment team. During the vesting period, the value of the awards will increase or decrease based on the investment returns of the strategies to which the awards are allocated. Compensation expense, including the appreciation or depreciation related to investment returns, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the required service period, which is generally five years. Because the awards will generally be paid out in cash upon vesting, the fair value of unvested awards is recorded as a liability based on the percentage of the service requirement that has been completed.
The Company hedges its economic exposure to the change in value of these awards due to market movements by investing the cash reserved for the awards in the underlying investments. The franchise capital award liability and the underlying investment holdings are marked to market each quarter. The change in value of the award liability is recognized as a compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the required service period. The change in value of the underlying investment holdings is recognized in non-operating income (expense) in the period of change. While there is a timing difference between the recognition of the compensation expense and the offsetting investment gain or loss, the compensation expense and investment income will net to zero at the end of the multi-year vesting period for all awards that ultimately vest.
The change in value of the investments had the following impact on the unaudited consolidated statements of operations:
 For the Three Months Ended September 30,  For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
Statement of Operations Section Statement of Operations Line Item 2023 2022 2023 2022

Non-operating income (expense) Other net investment gain (loss) (4,454) (3,987) 6,127  (19,192)
The franchise capital award liability was $23.6 million and $14.5 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and is included in accrued incentive compensation in the unaudited consolidated statements of financial condition. The unrecognized compensation expense for the unvested franchise capital awards as of September 30, 2023 was $80.6 million with a weighted average recognition period of 3.8 years remaining.

Note 11. Income Taxes and Related Payments
APAM is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxation on APAM’s allocable portion of Holdings’ income as well as foreign income taxes payable by Holdings’ subsidiaries. APAM’s effective income tax rate was lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to a rate benefit attributable to the fact that, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, approximately 16% of Artisan Partners Holdings’ full year projected taxable earnings were attributable to other partners and not subject to corporate-level taxes. The effective tax rate was also lower than the statutory rate due to tax deductible dividends paid on unvested restricted share-based awards.
APAM’s effective tax rate was 19.1% and 20.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Components of the provision for income taxes consist of the following:
 For the Three Months Ended September 30,  For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
2023 2022 2023 2022
Current:

Income tax expense (benefit) $ 14,570  $ 14,750  $ 51,663  $ 46,761 
In connection with the IPO, APAM entered into two tax receivable agreements (“TRAs”). The first TRA generally provides for the payment by APAM to a private equity fund (the “Pre-H&F Corp Merger Shareholder”) or its assignees of 85% of the applicable cash savings, if any, of U.S. federal, state and local income taxes that APAM actually realizes (or is deemed to realize in certain circumstances) as a result of (i) the tax attributes of the preferred units APAM acquired in the merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Pre-H&F Corp Merger Shareholder into APAM in March 2013 and (ii) tax benefits related to imputed interest.
The second TRA generally provides for the payment by APAM to current or former limited partners of Holdings or their assignees of 85% of the applicable cash savings, if any, of U.S. federal, state and local income taxes that APAM actually realizes (or is deemed to realize in certain circumstances) as a result of (i) certain tax attributes of their partnership units sold to APAM or exchanged (for shares of Class A common stock, convertible preferred stock or other consideration) and that are created as a result of such sales or exchanges and payments under the TRAs and (ii) tax benefits related to imputed interest. Under both agreements, APAM generally will retain the benefit of the remaining 15% of the applicable tax savings.
For purposes of the TRAs, cash savings of income taxes are calculated by comparing APAM’s actual income tax liability to the amount it would have been required to pay had it not been able to utilize any of the tax benefits subject to the TRAs, unless certain assumptions apply. The TRAs will continue in effect until all such tax benefits have been utilized or expired, unless APAM exercises its right to terminate the agreements or payments under the agreements are accelerated in the event that APAM materially breaches any of its material obligations under the agreements.
The actual increase in tax basis, as well as the amount and timing of any payments under these agreements, will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the timing of sales or exchanges by the holders of limited partnership units, the price of the Class A common stock at the time of such sales or exchanges, whether such sales or exchanges are taxable, the amount and timing of the taxable income APAM generates in the future and the tax rate then applicable and the portion of APAM’s payments under the TRAs constituting imputed interest or depreciable basis or amortizable basis.




18

Payments under the TRAs, if any, will be made pro rata among all TRA counterparties entitled to payments on an annual basis to the extent APAM has sufficient taxable income to utilize the increased depreciation and amortization charges and imputed interest deductions. Artisan expects to make one or more payments under the TRAs, to the extent they are required, prior to or within 125 days after APAM’s U.S. federal income tax return is filed for each fiscal year. Interest on the TRA payments will accrue from the due date (without extension) of such tax return until such payments are made. Amounts payable under the TRAs are estimates which may be impacted by factors, including but not limited to, expected tax rates, projected taxable income, and projected ownership levels and are subject to change. Changes in the estimates of amounts payable under tax receivable agreements are recorded as non-operating income (loss) in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations.
The change in the Company’s deferred tax assets related to the tax benefits described above and the change in corresponding amounts payable under the TRAs for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is summarized as follows:
Deferred Tax Asset - Amortizable Basis Amounts Payable Under TRAs
December 31, 2022 $ 426,468  $ 398,789 
2023 Holdings Common Unit Exchanges

Total deferred tax assets 446,491  477,024 
Less: valuation allowance (3)
—  — 
Net deferred tax assets $ 446,491  $ 477,024 
(1) Represents the unamortized step-up of tax basis and other tax attributes from the merger and partnership unit sales and exchanges described above. These future tax benefits are subject to the TRA agreements.
(2) Represents the net deferred tax assets associated with Artisan’s investment in Holdings, related primarily to incentive compensation plan deduction timing differences. These future tax benefits are not subject to the TRA agreements.
(3) Artisan assessed whether the deferred tax assets would be realizable and determined based on its history of taxable income that the benefits would more likely than not be realized. Accordingly, no valuation allowance is required.
Accounting standards establish a minimum threshold for recognizing, and a process for measuring, the benefits of income tax return positions in financial statements. The Company's gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits was $0.2 million and $0.1 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits is not expected to significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of the income tax provision. Accrued interest on unrecognized tax benefits was less than $0.1 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The gross unrecognized tax benefit is recorded within accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of financial condition.
In the normal course of business, Artisan is subject to examination by federal and certain state, local and foreign tax regulators. As of September 30, 2023, U.S. federal income tax returns filed for the years 2020 through 2022 are open and therefore subject to examination. State, local, and foreign income tax returns filed are generally subject to examination from 2019 to 2022.

Note 12. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed under the two-class method by dividing income available to Class A common stockholders by the weighted average number of Class A common shares outstanding during the period. Unvested restricted share-based awards are excluded from the number of Class A common shares outstanding for the basic earnings per share calculation because the shares have not yet been earned by employees. Income available to Class A common stockholders is computed by reducing net income attributable to APAM by earnings (both distributed and undistributed) allocated to participating securities, according to their respective rights to participate in those earnings. Except for certain performance share units, unvested share-based awards are participating securities because the awards include non-forfeitable dividend rights during the vesting period. Class B and Class C common shares do not share in profits of APAM and therefore are not reflected in the calculations.
Diluted earnings per share is computed under the more dilutive of the treasury stock method or the two-class method. The weighted average number of Class A common shares outstanding during the period is increased by the assumed conversion of nonparticipating unvested share-based awards into Class A common stock using the treasury stock method.
The computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:
 For the Three Months Ended September 30,  For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share 2023 2022 2023 2022
Numerator:
Net income attributable to APAM $ 53,155  $ 44,235  $ 157,533  $ 153,947 
Less: Allocation to participating securities 4,691  3,651  13,799  18,675 
Net income available to common stockholders $ 48,464  $ 40,584  $ 143,734  $ 135,272 
Denominator:
Basic weighted average shares outstanding 63,520,402  62,623,434  63,419,587  62,329,756 
Dilutive effect of nonparticipating share-based awards 42,642  9,226  30,217  23,519 
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding 63,563,044  62,632,660  63,449,804  62,353,275 
Earnings per share - Basic $ 0.76  $ 0.65  $ 2.27  $ 2.17 
Earnings per share - Diluted $ 0.76  $ 0.65  $ 2.27  $ 2.17 
Allocation to participating securities in the table above primarily represents dividends paid to holders of unvested restricted share-based awards, which reduces net income available to common stockholders.
The Holdings limited partnership units are anti-dilutive primarily due to the impact of public company expenses. Unvested restricted share-based awards with non-forfeitable dividend rights during the vesting period are considered participating securities and are therefore anti-dilutive. The following table summarizes the weighted-average shares outstanding that are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive:
 For the Three Months Ended September 30,  For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
Anti-Dilutive Weighted Average Shares Outstanding 2023 2022 2023 2022
Holdings limited partnership units 11,487,400  11,928,838  11,517,987  12,145,755 
Unvested restricted share-based awards 5,586,181  5,668,508  5,571,819  5,587,842 
Total 17,073,581  17,597,346  17,089,806  17,733,597 
Note 13. Indemnifications
In the normal course of business, APAM enters into agreements that include indemnities in favor of third parties. Holdings has also agreed to indemnify APAM as its general partner, Artisan Investment Corporation (“AIC”) as its former general partner, the directors and officers of APAM, the directors and officers of AIC as its former general partner, the members of its former Advisory Committee, and its partners, directors, officers, employees and agents. Holdings’ subsidiaries may also have similar agreements to indemnify their respective general partner(s), directors, officers, directors and officers of their general partner(s), partners, members, employees, and agents. The Company’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Company that have not yet occurred. APAM maintains insurance policies that may provide coverage against certain claims under these indemnities.

20

Note 14. Related Party Transactions
Several of the current executive officers and directors of APAM or entities associated with those individuals, are limited partners of Holdings. As a result, certain transactions (such as TRA payments) between Artisan and the limited partners of Holdings are considered to be related party transactions with respect to these persons.
Holdings also makes estimated state tax payments on behalf of certain limited partners, including related parties. These payments are then netted from subsequent distributions or payments to the limited partners. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, accounts receivable included $4.3 million and $6.5 million, respectively, of partnership tax reimbursements due from Holdings’ limited partners, including related parties.
Affiliate transactions—Artisan Funds
Artisan has an agreement to serve as the investment adviser to Artisan Funds, with which certain Artisan employees are affiliated. Under the terms of the agreement, which generally is reviewed and continued by the board of directors of Artisan Funds annually, a fee is paid to Artisan based on an annual percentage of the average daily net assets of each Artisan Fund ranging from 0.60% to 1.05%. Artisan has contractually agreed to reimburse for expenses incurred to the extent necessary to limit annualized ordinary operating expenses incurred by certain of the Artisan Funds to not more than a fixed percentage (ranging from 0.83% to 1.50%) of a fund’s average daily net assets. In addition, Artisan may voluntarily waive fees or reimburse any of the Artisan Funds for other expenses. The officers and directors of Artisan Funds who are affiliated with Artisan receive no compensation from the funds.
Investment advisory fees for managing Artisan Funds and amounts reimbursed by Artisan for fees and expenses (including management fees) are as follows:

Affiliate transactions—Artisan Global Funds
Artisan has an agreement to serve as the investment manager to Artisan Global Funds, with which certain Artisan employees are affiliated. Under the terms of these agreements, a fee is paid based on an annual percentage of the average daily net assets of each fund ranging from 0.50% to 1.85%. Artisan reimburses each sub-fund of Artisan Global Funds to the extent that sub-fund’s annual expenses, not including Artisan’s fee, exceed certain levels, which range from 0.10% to 0.20%. In addition, Artisan may voluntarily waive fees or reimburse any of the Artisan Global Funds for other expenses. The directors of Artisan Global Funds who are also employees of Artisan receive no compensation from the funds.

In addition, Artisan has agreed to reimburse certain funds to the extent that expenses, excluding Artisan’s management fee, performance fee and transaction related costs, exceed certain levels, which range from 0.10% to 1.00% per annum of the net assets of the fund. Artisan may also voluntarily waive fees or reimburse the funds for other expenses. The directors of Artisan Private Funds and the officers of the general partners of the Artisan Private Funds who are affiliated with Artisan receive no compensation from the funds.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview and Recent Highlights
We are an investment management firm focused on providing high-value added, active investment strategies in growing asset classes to sophisticated clients around the world. As of September 30, 2023, our 10 autonomous investment teams managed a total of 25 investment strategies across multiple asset classes and investment styles.
We focus on attracting, retaining and developing talented investment professionals and creating an environment in which each investment team is provided ample resources and support, transparent and direct financial incentives, a high degree of investment autonomy, and a long-term time horizon. We create new investment strategies when we identify opportunities to add value for clients, oftentimes through the use of a broad array of securities, instruments, and techniques (which we call degrees of freedom) to differentiate returns and manage risk.
We offer our investment management capabilities primarily to sophisticated investors that operate with institutional decision-making processes and longer-term investment horizons. We employ knowledgeable and investment focused relationship managers who are directly aligned with our investment teams, and we pair them with regional and distribution channel experts. We provide access to our investment strategies through multiple investment vehicles, including separate accounts and different types of pooled vehicles. As of September 30, 2023, approximately 76% of our assets under management were managed for clients and investors domiciled in the U.S. and 24% of our assets under management were managed for clients and investors domiciled outside of the U.S.
As a high-value added investment manager we expect that long-term investment performance will be the primary driver of our long-term business and financial results. If we maintain and evolve existing investment strategies and launch new investment strategies that meet the needs of and generate attractive outcomes for sophisticated asset allocators, we believe that we will continue to generate strong business and financial results.
Over shorter time periods, changes in our business and financial results are largely driven by market conditions and fluctuations in our assets under management that may not necessarily be the result of our long-term investment performance or the long-term demand for our strategies. For this reason, we expect that our business and financial results will be lumpy over time.
We strive to maintain a financial model that is transparent and predictable. Currently, we derive nearly all of our revenues from investment management fees, most of which are based on a specified percentage of clients’ average assets under management. A majority of our expenses, including most of our compensation expense, vary directly with changes in our revenues. We invest thoughtfully to support our investment teams and future growth, while also paying out to stockholders and partners a majority of the cash that we generate from operations through dividends and distributions. We expect to continue to invest in the growth of the business, with a focus on adding new investment capabilities and more degrees of freedom in areas where both opportunity and client demand exist, and in which we can differentiate our active management and add value for clients.
Financial highlights for the quarter included the following:
•During the three months ended September 30, 2023, our assets under management declined to $136.5 billion, a decrease of $6.5 billion, or 5%, compared to $143.0 billion at June 30, 2023, primarily due to $5.1 billion of market depreciation and net client cash outflows of $1.3 billion.
•Average assets under management for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $142.2 billion, a 7% increase from the average of $132.9 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Average assets under management for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased 2% from the average of $139.3 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
•We earned $248.7 million in revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of 6% from revenues of $234.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Performance fees of $0.1 million were recognized in the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.
•Our GAAP operating margin was 33.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to 33.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Adjusted operating margin was 32.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to 32.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2022.
•We generated $0.76 of earnings per basic and diluted share and $0.75 of adjusted EPS.
•We declared and distributed dividends of $0.61 per share of Class A common stock during the three months ended September 30, 2023.
•We declared, effective October 31, 2023, a quarterly dividend with respect to the three months ended September 30, 2023, of $0.65 per share of Class A common stock.

Organizational Structure
Organizational Structure
Our operations are conducted through Artisan Partners Holdings LP (“Holdings”) and its subsidiaries. On March 12, 2013, Artisan Partners Asset Management Inc. (“APAM”) and Holdings completed a series of transactions (the "IPO Reorganization”) to reorganize their capital structures in connection with the initial public offering (“IPO”) of APAM’s Class A common stock. The IPO Reorganization and IPO were completed on March 12, 2013. The IPO Reorganization was designed to create a capital structure that preserves our ability to conduct our business through Holdings, while permitting us to raise additional capital and provide access to liquidity through a public company.
Limited partners of Holdings, some of whom are employees, held approximately 14% of the equity interests in Holdings as of September 30, 2023. Our results reflect that significant noncontrolling interest.
We operate our business in a single segment.
Holdings Unit Exchanges
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, certain limited partners of Holdings exchanged 142,550 common units (along with a corresponding number of shares of Class B or Class C common stock of APAM) for 142,550 shares of Class A common stock. In connection with the exchanges, APAM received 142,550 GP units of Holdings.
APAM’s equity ownership interest in Holdings increased from 85% at December 31, 2022 to 86% at September 30, 2023, as a result of these transactions and other equity transactions during the period.
Financial Overview
Economic Environment
Global market conditions materially affect our financial performance. Concerns about elevated inflation, interest rate increases, effects of geopolitical tensions, conflicts and wars, and other global economic conditions continued into the three months ended September 30, 2023. Volatility and uncertainty in global financial markets impact the value of our assets under management. Because the revenue we earn is based on the value of our assets under management (AUM), fluctuations in our AUM will result in corresponding fluctuations in our revenues and earnings.

(1) We compute average assets under management by averaging day-end assets under management for the applicable period.
(2) Net client cash flows excludes Artisan Funds' income and capital gain distributions that were not reinvested.
(3) We compute our weighted average management fee by dividing annualized investment management fees (which excludes performance fees) by average assets under management for the applicable period.
(4) Adjusted measures are non-GAAP measures and are explained and reconciled to the comparable GAAP measures in “Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Information” below.
Assets under management within our consolidated investment products, and investment advisory fees earned thereon, are excluded from our weighted average fee calculations and total revenues, since any such revenues are eliminated upon consolidation. Assets under management within Artisan Private Funds are included in the reported firmwide, separate accounts and other, and institutional assets under management figures reported below.
Assets Under Management and Investment Performance
Changes to our operating results from one period to another are primarily caused by changes in the amount of our assets under management. Changes in the relative composition of our assets under management among our investment strategies and vehicles and the effective fee rates on our products also impact our operating results.
The amount and composition of our assets under management are, and will continue to be, influenced by a variety of factors including, among others:
•investment performance, including fluctuations in both the financial markets and foreign currency exchange rates and the quality of our investment decisions;
•flows of client assets into and out of our various strategies and investment vehicles;
•our decision to close strategies or limit the growth of assets in a strategy or a vehicle when we believe it is in the best interest of our clients, as well as our decision to re-open strategies, in part or entirely;
•our ability to attract and retain qualified investment, management, and marketing and client service professionals;
•industry trends towards products, strategies, vehicles, or services that we do not offer;
•competitive conditions in the investment management and broader financial services sectors; and
•investor sentiment and confidence.

(1) Net client cash flows excludes Artisan Funds' income and capital gain distributions that were not reinvested.
(2) Artisan Funds' distributions not reinvested represents the amount of income and capital gain distributions that were not reinvested in the Artisan Funds.
(3) Includes the impact of translating the value of assets under management denominated in non-USD currencies into U.S. dollars. The impact was immaterial for the periods presented.
During the quarter, our AUM declined by $6.5 billion primarily due to $5.1 billion of market depreciation and net client cash outflows of $1.3 billion. For the quarter, 16 of our 25 investment strategies had net outflows totaling $3.3 billion, which were partially offset by $1.9 billion of net inflows across the remaining 9 strategies.
Over the long-term, we expect to generate the majority of our AUM growth through investment returns, which has been our historical experience.
We monitor the availability of attractive investment opportunities relative to the amount of assets we manage in each of our investment strategies and the velocity at which the strategies are experiencing inflows. When appropriate, we will close a strategy to new investors or otherwise take action to slow or restrict its growth, even though our aggregate assets under management may be negatively impacted in the short term. We may also re-open a strategy, widely or selectively, to fill available capacity or manage the diversification of our client base in that strategy. We believe that management of our investment capacity protects our ability to manage assets successfully, which protects the interests of our clients and, in the long term, protects our ability to retain client assets and maintain our profit margins.
As of the date of this filing, the Artisan High Income Fund, Artisan International Value Fund and Artisan International Small-Mid Fund are closed to most new investors and their respective strategies have limited availability to most new client relationships. In addition, we are actively managing the capacity of our U.S. Small-Cap Growth strategy with respect to new client relationships.
When we close or otherwise restrict the growth of a strategy, we typically continue to allow additional investments in the strategy by existing clients and certain related entities. We may also permit new investments by other eligible investors in our discretion. As a result, during a given period we may have net client cash inflows in a closed strategy. However, when a strategy is closed or its growth is restricted we expect there to be periods of net client cash outflows.
27


In November 2023, we expect the Artisan Funds to have completed their annual income and capital gain distributions for their equity mutual funds. Based on our current estimates and assumptions, we expect fourth quarter distributions to result in approximately $400 million of net client cash outflows from investors who choose not to reinvest their distributions. The November 2023 distribution (estimates of which we expect Artisan Funds will disclose in advance of the record dates) may cause increased mutual fund redemptions.
The unaudited table on the following page sets forth the average annual total returns for each composite (gross of fees) and its respective broad-based benchmark (and style benchmark, if applicable) over a multi-horizon time period as of September 30, 2023. Returns for periods less than one year are not annualized.
We measure investment performance based upon 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 investment 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 excluded accounts, which represented approximately 14% of our assets under management at September 30, 2023, are maintained in separate composites the results of which are not included below.

The goal of our marketing, distribution and client services efforts is to establish and maintain a client base that is diversified by investment strategy, client type and distribution channel. As distribution channels have evolved to have more institutional-like decision making processes and longer-term investment horizons, we have expanded our distribution efforts into those areas.

Investment Advisory Revenues
Essentially all of our revenues consist of fees earned from managing clients’ assets. Investment advisory fees, which are comprised of management fees and performance fees, fluctuate based on a number of factors, including the total value of our assets under management, the composition of assets under management among investment vehicles and our investment strategies, changes in the investment management fee rates on our products, the extent to which we enter into fee arrangements that differ from our standard fee schedules, which can be affected by custom and the competitive landscape in the relevant market, and, for the accounts on which we earn performance fees, the investment performance of those accounts.
35

The different fee structures associated with Artisan Funds, Artisan Global Funds and separate accounts and other pooled vehicles, and the different fee schedules applicable to each of our investment strategies, make the composition of our assets under management an important determinant of the investment management fees we earn. Historically, we have received higher effective rates of investment management fees from Artisan Funds and Artisan Global Funds than from traditional separate accounts, reflecting, among other things, the different and broader array of services we provide to Artisan Funds and Artisan Global Funds. Investment management fees for non-U.S. funds may also be higher because they include fees to offset higher distribution costs. Our investment management fees also differ by investment strategy, with higher-capacity strategies having lower standard fee rates than strategies with more limited capacity.
Certain separate account clients pay us fees based on the performance of their accounts relative to agreed-upon benchmarks, which typically results in a lower base fee but allows us to earn higher fees if the performance we achieve for that client is superior to the performance of the agreed-upon benchmark. We may also receive performance fees or incentive allocations from Artisan Private Funds. Approximately 3% of our $136.5 billion of assets under management as of September 30, 2023 have performance fee billing arrangements. Performance fees of $0.1 million were recognized in each of the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.
The increase in revenues of $14.4 million, or 6%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, was driven primarily by a $9.3 billion, or 7% increase in our average assets under management. The weighted average investment management fee, which excludes performance fees, was 69.5 basis points for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to 70.0 basis points for the three months ended September 30, 2022.
The following table sets forth investment advisory fees and the weighted average management fee by investment vehicle. The weighted average management fee for Artisan Funds and Artisan Global Funds reflects the additional services we provide to these pooled vehicles.

Operating Expenses
Operating expenses increased $10.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, due to an $8.6 million increase in total compensation and benefits and a $2.3 million increase in other operating expenses.

Other operating expenses
Other operating expenses increased $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to an increase in travel expenses.

Non-operating income (expense) consisted of the following:

Net investment gain (loss) of consolidated investment products, net investment gain (loss) on nonconsolidated seed investments, and net investment gain (loss) on franchise capital investments increased $15.0 million in the aggregate for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, predominately due to market conditions. Interest income on cash and cash equivalents and other increased $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, as a result of higher yields.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes primarily represents APAM’s U.S. federal, state and local income taxes on its allocable portion of Holdings’ income, as well as foreign income taxes payable by Holdings’ subsidiaries. APAM’s effective income tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was 16.6% and 21.8%, respectively. Several factors contribute to the effective tax rate, including a rate benefit attributable to the fact that approximately 16% and 17% of Holdings’ full year projected taxable earnings were not subject to corporate-level taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Thus, income before income taxes includes amounts that are attributable to noncontrolling interests and not taxable to APAM and its subsidiaries, which reduces the effective tax rate. As APAM’s equity ownership in Holdings increases, the effective tax rate will likewise increase as more income will be subject to corporate-level taxes. The effective tax rate was favorably impacted in both periods due to tax deductible dividends paid on unvested restricted share-based awards.
Earnings Per Share
Weighted average basic and diluted shares of Class A common stock outstanding were higher for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, as a result of unit exchanges and equity award grants. See Note 12, “Earnings Per Share” in the Notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for discussion of earnings per share.

Investment Advisory Revenues
The decrease in revenues of $41.2 million, or 5%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was driven primarily by a $7.2 billion, or 5%, decrease in our average assets under management. The weighted average management fee, which excludes performance fees, was 70.0 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to 70.2 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Performance fees of $0.2 million were recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $0.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Operating Expenses
Operating expenses increased $5.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, due to a $3.2 million increase in total compensation and benefits and a $2.5 million increase in other operating expenses.

Total compensation and benefits $ 392.6  $ 389.4  $ 3.2  %
(1) Excluding long-term incentive compensation awards
The decrease in salaries, incentive compensation and benefits was driven primarily by a $12.2 million decrease in incentive compensation paid to our investment and distribution professionals as a result of the decrease in revenue, partially offset by higher fixed compensation and benefits costs reflecting annual merit increases and a 6% increase in the number of full time associates.
Long-term incentive compensation award expense increased $5.4 million due to the impact of investment returns on the cash-based awards.
During the first quarter of 2023, the Company's board of directors approved a grant of $57.1 million of long-term incentive awards consisting of $18.1 million of restricted share-based awards and $39.0 million of cash-based long-term incentive awards, which we refer to as franchise capital awards. Long-term incentive compensation award expense for all outstanding awards is expected to be approximately $14 million per quarter in fiscal 2023, excluding the impact of investment returns on the franchise capital awards.
Total compensation and benefits was 54% and 51% of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively.
Other operating expenses
Other operating expenses increased $2.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to an increase in travel expenses and occupancy costs, offset by a decrease in distribution fees due to lower revenues.

The increase in interest income on cash and cash equivalents and other increased $3.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as a result of higher yields.

Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes primarily represents APAM’s U.S. federal, state and local income taxes on its allocable portion of Holdings’ income, as well as foreign income taxes payable by Holdings’ subsidiaries. APAM’s effective income tax rate was 19.1% and 20.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Several factors contribute to the effective tax rate, including a rate benefit attributable to the fact that approximately 16% and 17% of Holdings’ full year projected taxable earnings were not subject to corporate-level taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Thus, income before income taxes includes amounts that are attributable to noncontrolling interests and not taxable to APAM and its subsidiaries, which reduces the effective tax rate. As APAM’s equity ownership in Holdings increases, the effective tax rate will likewise increase as more income will be subject to corporate-level taxes. The effective tax rate was favorably impacted in both periods due to tax deductible dividends paid on unvested restricted share-based awards.
Earnings Per Share
Weighted average basic and diluted shares of Class A common stock outstanding were higher for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as a result of stock offerings, unit exchanges, and equity award grants. See Note 12, “Earnings Per Share” in the Notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for further discussion of earnings per share.

Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Information
Our management uses non-GAAP measures (referred to as “adjusted” measures) of net income to evaluate the profitability and efficiency of the underlying operations of our 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 our 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 more meaningful information to analyze our profitability and efficiency between periods and over time. We have 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. Our non-GAAP measures may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even if similar terms are used to identify such measures. Our 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 investment products and nonconsolidated investment products, including investments 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.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our working capital needs, including accrued incentive compensation payments, have been and are expected to be met primarily through cash generated by our operations. The assets and liabilities of consolidated investment products attributable to third-party investors do not impact our liquidity and capital resources. We have no right to the benefits from, nor do we bear the risks associated with, the assets and liabilities of consolidated investment products, beyond our direct equity investment and any investment advisory fees earned. Accordingly, assets and liabilities of consolidated investment products attributable to third-party investors are excluded from the amounts and discussions below. The following table shows our liquidity position as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:
September 30, 2023 December 31, 2022
(unaudited; in millions)
Cash and cash equivalents $ 198.3  $ 114.8 
Accounts receivable $ 96.1  $ 98.6 
Seed investments(1)
$ 144.6  $ 124.8 
Undrawn commitment on revolving credit facility $ 100.0  $ 100.0 
(1) Seed investments include Artisan's direct equity investments in consolidated and nonconsolidated Artisan-sponsored investment products. The balance excludes $104.2 million of investments made related to long-term incentive compensation plans.
We manage our cash balances in order to fund our day-to-day operations. The Company did not have any deposits with financial institutions directly impacted by events within the banking industry earlier this year. We continue to mitigate concentration risk through the diversification of financial institutions holding daily operating cash balances and by investing excess operating cash in various money market funds. $167.3 million of our cash and cash equivalents balance was invested in money market funds as of September 30, 2023.
Accounts receivable primarily represent investment advisory fees that have been earned, but not yet received from our clients. We perform a review of our receivables on a monthly basis to assess collectability. As of September 30, 2023, none of our receivables were considered uncollectible.
We utilize cash to make seed investments in Artisan-sponsored investment products to support the development of new investment strategies and vehicles. As of September 30, 2023, the balance of all seed investments, including investments in consolidated investment products, was $144.6 million. Subject to certain restrictions on the timing of redemptions, seed investments are generally redeemable at our discretion. We monitor for opportunities to redeem existing seed investments as sufficient scale in those strategies and vehicles is achieved.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we also made investments of $39.0 million related to funded long-term incentive compensation plans. As of September 30, 2023, the value of investments held in connection with funded long-term incentive compensation plans was $104.2 million.
We expect our investment portfolio to continue to grow as we grant additional annual franchise capital awards and make additional seed capital investments in new strategies and vehicles to support our growth.
We have $200 million in unsecured notes outstanding and a $100 million revolving credit facility with a five-year term ending August 2027. The notes are comprised of three series, Series D, Series E, and Series F, each with a balloon payment at maturity. The $100 million revolving credit facility was unused as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
The fixed interest rate on each series of unsecured notes is subject to a 100 basis point increase in the event Holdings receives a below-investment grade rating and any such increase will continue to apply until an investment grade rating is received.
These borrowings contain various covenants. Our failure to comply with any of the covenants could result in an event of default under the agreements, giving our lenders the ability to accelerate repayment of our obligations. We were in compliance with all debt covenants as of September 30, 2023.
Distributions and Dividends
Artisan Partners Holdings’ distributions, including distributions to APAM for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, were as follows:
43

For the Three Months Ended September 30, For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
2023 2022 2023 2022
(unaudited, in millions)
Holdings Partnership Distributions to Limited Partners $ 12.9  $ 12.0  $ 30.3  $ 43.7 
Holdings Partnership Distributions to APAM 72.4  64.5  169.1  227.2 
Total Holdings Partnership Distributions $ 85.3  $ 76.5  $ 199.4  $ 270.9 
On October 31, 2023, we, acting as the general partner of Artisan Partners Holdings, declared a distribution of $18.8 million, payable by Artisan Partners Holdings to holders of its partnership units, including APAM.
APAM declared and paid the following dividends per share during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022:
Type of Dividend Class of Stock For the Three Months Ended September 30, For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
2023 2022 2023 2022
Quarterly Class A Common $ 0.61  $ 0.60  $ 1.66  $ 2.39 
Special Annual Class A Common $ —  $ —  $ 0.35  $ 0.72 
Our board of directors declared, effective October 31, 2023, a variable quarterly dividend of $0.65 per share of Class A common stock with respect to the September quarter of 2023, payable on November 30, 2023 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 16, 2023. The variable quarterly dividend represents approximately 80% of the cash generated in the September quarter of 2023 and a pro-rata portion of 2023 tax savings related to our tax receivable agreements.
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 our quarterly cash generation to approximate adjusted net income plus long-term incentive compensation award expense, less cash reserved for future franchise capital awards (which we generally expect will 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 paying a special dividend after determining the amount of cash needed for general corporate purposes and investments in growth and strategic initiatives. Although we expect to pay dividends according to our dividend policy, we may not pay dividends according to our policy or at all.
Tax Receivable Agreements (“TRAs”)
In addition to funding our normal operations, we will be required to fund amounts payable under the TRAs that we entered into in connection with the IPO, which resulted in the recognition of a $363.9 million liability as of September 30, 2023. The liability generally represents 85% of the tax benefits APAM expects to realize as a result of the merger of an entity into APAM as part of the IPO Reorganization, our purchase of partnership units from limited partners of Holdings and the exchange of partnership units (for shares of Class A common stock or other consideration). The estimated liability assumes no material changes in the relevant tax law and that APAM earns sufficient taxable income to realize all tax benefits subject to the TRAs. An increase or decrease in future tax rates will increase or decrease, respectively, the expected tax benefits APAM would realize and the amounts payable under the TRAs. Changes in the estimate of expected tax benefits APAM would realize and the amounts payable under the TRAs as a result of change in tax rates have been and will be recorded in net income.
The liability will increase upon future purchases or exchanges of limited partnership units with the increase representing amounts payable under the TRAs equal to 85% of the estimated future tax benefits, if any, resulting from such purchases or exchanges. We intend to fund the payment of amounts due under the TRAs out of the reduced tax payments that APAM realizes in respect of the tax attributes to which the TRAs relate.
The actual increase in tax basis, as well as the amount and timing of any payments under these agreements, will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the timing of sales or exchanges by the holders of limited partnership units, the price of the Class A common stock at the time of such sales or exchanges, whether such sales or exchanges are taxable, the amount and timing of the taxable income APAM generates in the future and the tax rate then applicable and the portion of APAM’s payments under the TRAs constituting imputed interest or depreciable basis or amortizable basis. In certain cases, payments under the TRAs may be accelerated and/or significantly exceed the actual benefits we realize in respect of the tax attributes subject to the TRAs. In such cases, we intend to fund those payments with cash on hand, although we may have to borrow funds depending on the amount and timing of the payments. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we made payments totaling approximately $35.8 million related to the TRAs. We do not intend to make any additional TRA payments in 2023. In 2024, we expect to make payments of approximately $37.2 million related to the TRAs.

Cash Flows
 For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
2023 2022
(unaudited; in millions)
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of January 1 $ 143.2  $ 200.8 
Net cash provided by operating activities 262.8  306.6 
Net cash used in investing activities (36.5) (60.5)
Net cash used in financing activities (134.3) (259.3)
Net impact of deconsolidation of consolidated investment products (4.7) — 
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of September 30 $ 230.5  $ 187.6 
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $43.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to a decrease in operating income resulting from lower revenues. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, our operating income, excluding share based compensation expense, decreased $52.6 million, and was offset by changes in working capital.
Investing activities consist primarily of acquiring property and equipment, leasehold improvements and the purchase and sale of investment securities. Net cash used in investing activities decreased $24.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to a decrease in the net purchase of investment securities relating to franchise capital awards and fewer investments in non-consolidated investment products in fiscal 2023, compared to fiscal 2022.
Financing activities consist primarily of partnership distributions to non-controlling interests, dividend payments to holders of our Class A common stock, proceeds from the issuance of Class A common stock in follow-on offerings, payments to purchase Holdings partnership units, and payments of amounts owed under the tax receivable agreements. Net cash used in financing activities decreased $125.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to a $71.9 million decrease in dividends and a $13.4 million decrease in distributions paid to shareholders and limited partners, respectively, as well as a $40.9 million increase in contributions from noncontrolling interests in our consolidated investment products.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company determined that it no longer had a controlling financial interest in an investment product that was previously consolidated. The deconsolidation of the investment product resulted in a $4.7 million decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash.
Certain Contractual Obligations
As of September 30, 2023, there have been no material changes to our contractual obligations outside the ordinary course of business from those listed in the “Contractual Obligations” table and related notes to the table in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on February 27, 2023, except for the changes in the TRA liability during the year.
As previously discussed in this report, the TRA liability decreased from $398.8 million at December 31, 2022 to $363.9 million at September 30, 2023. Amounts payable under the TRAs will increase upon exchanges of Holdings units for our Class A common stock or sales of Holdings units to us, with the increase representing 85% of the estimated future tax benefits, if any, resulting from such exchanges or sales and decrease when payments are made. The actual amount and timing of payments associated with our existing payable under the TRAs or future exchanges or sales, and associated tax benefits, will vary depending upon a number of factors as described under “Liquidity and Capital Resources.” As a result, the timing of payments by period is currently unknown. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we made payments of approximately $35.8 million related to the TRAs. We do not intend to make any additional TRA payments in 2023. In 2024, we expect to make payments of approximately $37.2 million related to the TRAs.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
There have been no updates to our critical accounting policies from those disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
New or Revised Accounting Standards

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) at September 30, 2023. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act), during the quarter ended September 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
As described in Note 8, “Stockholders’ Equity”, to the unaudited consolidated financial statements included in Part I of this report, upon termination of employment with Artisan, an employee-partner’s Class B common units are exchanged for Class E common units and the corresponding shares of APAM Class B common stock are canceled. APAM issues the former employee-partner a number of shares of APAM Class C common stock equal to the former employee-partner’s number of Class E common units. Class E common units are exchangeable for Class A common stock subject to the same restrictions and limitations on exchange applicable to the other common units of Holdings. There were no such issuances during the three months ended September 30, 2023.
