NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
1.Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates
The Consolidated Financial Statements of Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (“AMG” or the “Company”) have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) for interim financial information
and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by GAAP for full year financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all normal and
recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s interim financial position and results of
operations have been included and all intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.  Certain reclassifications
have been made to the prior period’s financial statements to conform to the current period’s presentation. Operating results for
interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other period or for the full year.  The
Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 includes additional information about its
operations, financial position, and accounting policies, and should be read in conjunction with this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
All dollar amounts, except per share, per unit, and per option data in the text and tables herein, are stated in millions unless
otherwise indicated.
2.Accounting Standards and Policies
Recent Accounting Developments
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”)
2024-03, Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income — Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40):
Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires improved disclosure of the nature and disaggregation of income
statement expenses.  The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods
beginning after December 15, 2027.  The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that this standard may have on
its Consolidated Financial Statements.
In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-03, Business Combinations (Topic 805) and Consolidation (Topic 810):
Determining the Accounting Acquirer in the Acquisition of a Variable Interest Entity, which revises guidance on how an entity
should identify the accounting acquirer in a business combination in which the legal acquiree is a variable interest entity.  The
standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within those annual reporting
periods.  The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that this standard may have on its Consolidated Financial
Statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Internal-Use Software
(Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which increases the operability of the
recognition guidance considering different methods of software development.  The standard is effective for annual periods
beginning after December 15, 2027 and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company is currently
evaluating the potential impact that this standard may have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-09, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Hedge Accounting
Improvements, which amends certain aspects of the hedge accounting guidance to more closely align hedge accounting with the
economics of an entity’s risk management activities.  The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after
December 15, 2026 and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company is currently evaluating the
potential impact that this standard may have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

assets are liquidated over the life of the investments, which is generally up to 15 years.  The Company accounts for the
majority of its interests in investments with limited liquidity one quarter in arrears (adjusted for current period calls and
distributions).
(2)Investments with periodic liquidity are generally redeemable on a daily, monthly, or quarterly basis.
(3)Investments measured at NAV as a practical expedient primarily invest in a broad range of private markets.  Fair value
attributable to the controlling interest was $456.6 million and $456.2 million as of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026,
respectively.
The Company’s unfunded commitments attributed to investments measured at NAV as a practical expedient were $283.0
million and $270.9 million as of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026, respectively.  The Company’s unfunded

(1)Calculated by comparing the relative fair value of an obligation to its respective total.
(2)Represents growth rates of asset- and performance-based fees.
Contingent payment obligations represent the fair value of the expected future settlement amounts related to the
Company’s investments in its consolidated Affiliates.  Changes to assumed volatility and discount rates change the fair value of
contingent payment obligations.  Increases to the volatility rates used would result in higher fair values, while increases to the
discount rates used would result in lower fair values.
Affiliate equity purchase obligations include agreements to purchase Affiliate equity and represent the fair value of the
expected future settlement amounts.  When using a discounted cash flow valuation technique, increases to the assumed growth
rates used would result in higher fair values, while increases to the discount rates used would result in lower fair values.  When
using a Monte Carlo valuation technique, changes to assumed volatility and discount rates change the fair value of Affiliate
equity purchase obligations.  Increases to the volatility rates used would result in higher fair values, while increases to the
discount rates used would result in lower fair values.

5.Investments in Affiliates and Affiliate Sponsored Investment Products
In evaluating whether an investment must be consolidated, the Company evaluates the risk, rewards, and significant terms
of each of its Affiliates and other investments to determine if an investment is considered a voting rights entity (“VRE”) or a
variable interest entity (“VIE”).  An entity is a VRE when the total equity investment at risk is sufficient to enable the entity to
finance its activities independently, and when the equity holders have the obligation to absorb losses, the right to receive
residual returns, and the right to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact its economic performance.  An
entity is a VIE when it lacks one or more of the characteristics of a VRE, which, for the Company, are Affiliate investments
structured as partnerships (or similar entities) where the Company is a limited partner and lacks substantive kick-out or
substantive participation rights over the general partner.  Assessing whether an entity is a VRE or VIE involves judgment. 
Upon the occurrence of certain events, management reviews and reconsiders its previous conclusion regarding the status of an
entity as a VRE or a VIE.
The Company consolidates VREs when it has control over significant operating, financial, and investing decisions of the
entity.  When the Company lacks such control, but is deemed to have significant influence, the Company accounts for the VRE
under the equity method.  Investments with readily determinable fair values in which the Company does not have rights to
exercise significant influence are recorded at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, with changes in fair value included
in Investment and other income in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
The Company consolidates VIEs when it is the primary beneficiary of the entity, which is defined as having the power to
direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of, or the
right to receive benefits from, the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE.  Substantially all of the Company’s
consolidated Affiliates considered VIEs are controlled because the Company holds a majority of the voting interests or it is the
managing member or general partner.  Furthermore, an Affiliate’s assets can be used for purposes other than the settlement of
the respective Affiliate’s obligations.  The Company applies the equity method of accounting to VIEs where the Company is
not the primary beneficiary, but has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial matters of the VIE.
Investments in Affiliates
Substantially all of the Company’s Affiliates are considered VIEs and are either consolidated or accounted for under the
equity method.  A limited number of the Company’s Affiliates are considered VREs and most of these are accounted for under
the equity method.
When an Affiliate is consolidated, the portion of the earnings attributable to Affiliate management’s and any co-investor’s
equity ownership is included in Net income (non-controlling interests) in the Consolidated Statements of Income. 
Undistributed earnings attributable to Affiliate management’s and any co-investor’s equity ownership, along with their share of
any tangible or intangible net assets, are included in Non-controlling interests on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  Affiliate
equity interests where the holder has certain rights to demand settlement are presented, at their current redemption values, as
Redeemable non-controlling interests or Other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  The Company periodically
issues, sells, and purchases the equity of its consolidated Affiliates.  Because these transactions take place between entities that
are under common control, any gains or losses attributable to these transactions are required to be included in Additional paid-
in capital on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, net of any related income tax effects in the period the transaction occurs.
When an Affiliate is accounted for under the equity method, the Company’s share of an Affiliate’s earnings or losses, net
of intangible amortization and impairments and tax, is included in Equity method income (net) in the Consolidated Statements
of Income and the carrying value of the Affiliate is recorded in Equity method investments in Affiliates (net) in the
Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company periodically performs assessments to determine if the fair value of an investment may have declined below
its related carrying value for its Affiliates accounted for under the equity method for a period that the Company considers to be
other-than-temporary.  The Company performs these assessments if certain triggering events occur or annually during the
fourth quarter.  The Company first considers whether certain qualitative factors indicate an increased likelihood of a decline in
the fair value of an Affiliate during the reporting period.  If such a decline is identified, and it is likely that an investment’s fair
value may have declined below its carrying value, the Company performs a quantitative assessment to determine if an
impairment exists.  Impairments are recorded as an expense in Equity method income (net) to reduce the carrying value of the
Affiliate to fair value.
The Company’s Affiliates are consolidated or accounted for under the equity method, depending upon the underlying
structure of and relationship with each Affiliate.  Substantially all of the Company’s consolidated Affiliates are VIEs.  The
13

AFFILIATED MANAGERS GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
Company’s Affiliates accounted for under the equity method considered VIEs generally require minimal levels of working
capital on each Affiliate’s balance sheet.  Certain of the Company’s Affiliates accounted for under the equity method hold
general partner and seed investments, which may be significant.  As of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026, the Company’s
carrying value attributable to its Affiliates accounted for under the equity method considered VIEs was $2,763.6 million and
$2,795.9 million, respectively.  As of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026, including arrangements more fully described in
Note 7, the Company’s maximum exposure to loss attributable to its Affiliates accounted for under the equity method
considered VIEs was $3,245.3 million and $3,403.2 million, respectively.
As of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026, the carrying value for all of the Company’s Affiliates accounted for under
the equity method was $2,870.4 million and $2,965.8 million, including Affiliates accounted for under the equity method
considered VREs of $106.8 million and $169.9 million, respectively.  As of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026, including
arrangements more fully described in Note 7, the maximum exposure to loss for all of the Company’s Affiliates accounted for
under the equity method was $3,352.1 million and $3,573.1 million, respectively, including Affiliates accounted for under the
equity method considered VREs of $106.8 million and $169.9 million, respectively.
Affiliate Sponsored Investment Products
The Company’s Affiliates sponsor various investment products where the Affiliate also acts as the investment adviser. 
These investment products are typically owned primarily by third-party investors; however, certain products are funded with
general partner and seed capital investments from the Company and its Affiliates.
Third-party investors in Affiliate sponsored investment products are generally entitled to substantially all of the economics
of these products, except for the asset- and performance-based fees earned by the Company’s Affiliates or any gains or losses
attributable to the Company’s or its Affiliates’ investments in these products.  As a result, the Company generally does not
consolidate these products.  However, for certain products, the Company’s consolidated Affiliates, as the investment manager,
have the power to direct the activities of the investment product and have an exposure to the economics of the product that is
more than insignificant, though generally only for a short period while the product is established and has yet to attract
significant third-party investors.  When the products are consolidated, the Company retains the specialized investment company
accounting principles of the underlying products, and all of the underlying investments are carried at fair value in Investments,
with corresponding changes in the investments’ fair values included in Investment and other income.  Purchases and sales of
securities are included in purchases and sales by consolidated Affiliate sponsored investment products in the Consolidated
Statements of Cash Flows, respectively, and the third-party investors’ interests are recorded in Redeemable non-controlling
interests.  When the Company or its consolidated Affiliates no longer control these products, due to a reduction in ownership or
other reasons, the products are deconsolidated with only the Company’s or its consolidated Affiliate’s investment in the product
reported from the date of deconsolidation.
The Company’s carrying value and maximum exposure to loss from unconsolidated Affiliate sponsored investment
products, is its or its consolidated Affiliates’ interests in the unconsolidated net assets of the respective products.  These
products vary in size from early-stage products with few initial investors to mature products with a large population of
investors.  As of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026, the Company’s carrying value attributable to Affiliate sponsored
investment products, which are unconsolidated VIEs, was $88.9 million and $95.7 million, respectively.  As of December 31,
2025 and March 31, 2026, including arrangements more fully described in Note 7, the Company’s maximum exposure to loss
attributable to Affiliate sponsored investment products, which are unconsolidated VIEs, was $158.7 million and $158.9 million,
respectively.

Senior Bank Debt
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had a $1.25 billion revolver which matures on November 15, 2029.  Subject to certain
conditions, the Company may increase the commitments under the revolver by up to an additional $500.0 million.  The
Company pays interest on any outstanding obligations under the revolver at a specified rate, currently based either on an
applicable term-SOFR plus a SOFR adjustment of 0.10%, or prime rate, plus a marginal rate determined based on its credit
rating.  As of December 31, 2025, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the revolver.  As of March 31, 2026, the
Company had outstanding borrowings under the revolver of $565.0 million and the weighted-average interest rate on
outstanding borrowings was 4.77%.
Senior Notes
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had senior notes outstanding.  The carrying values of the senior notes are accreted to

In addition to customary event of default provisions, the indenture governing the senior notes, including the applicable
supplemental indentures with respect to the 2030, 2034, and 2036 senior notes, limits the Company’s ability to consolidate,
merge, or sell all or substantially all of its assets, and requires the Company to make an offer to repurchase the applicable senior
notes at 101% of the principal amount, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the date of
repurchase, upon certain change of control triggering events.  The senior notes may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at a make-
whole redemption price (plus accrued and unpaid interest), at any time prior to March 15, 2030, in the case of the 2030 senior
notes, at any time prior to May 20, 2034, in the case of the 2034 senior notes, and at any time prior to November 15, 2035, in
the case of the 2036 senior notes.  The make-whole redemption price, in each case, is equal to the greater of 100% of the
principal amount of the notes to be redeemed and the remaining principal and interest payments on the notes being redeemed
(excluding accrued but unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date) discounted to their present value as of the
redemption date on a semi-annual basis at the applicable Treasury rate plus 0.40%, in the case of the 2030 senior notes, and

As of March 31, 2026, each of the 2059 and the 2060 junior subordinated notes could be redeemed at any time, in whole or
in part.  The other junior subordinated notes may be redeemed at any time, in whole or in part, on or after September 30, 2026,
in the case of the 2061 junior subordinated notes, and on or after March 30, 2029, in the case of the 2064 junior subordinated
notes.  In each case, the junior subordinated notes may be redeemed at 100% of the principal amount of the notes being
redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon.  Prior to the applicable redemption date, at the Company’s option, the
applicable junior subordinated notes may also be redeemed, in whole but not in part, at 100% of the principal amount, plus any
accrued and unpaid interest, if certain changes in tax laws, regulations, or interpretations occur; or at 102% of the principal
amount, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, if a rating agency makes certain changes relating to the equity credit criteria for
securities with features similar to the applicable notes.
The Company may, at its option, and subject to certain conditions and restrictions, defer interest payments subject to the
terms of the junior subordinated notes.
Junior Convertible Securities
On December 8, 2025, the Company delivered notice that it had elected to redeem all of its outstanding 5.15% junior
convertible trust preferred securities (the “junior convertible securities”) on December 29, 2025 (the “Redemption Date”), and
announced its intention to settle any and all conversion obligations in cash.  Substantially all holders of the junior convertible
securities delivered requests to convert their securities prior to the Redemption Date.  On December 15, 2025 (the “Election
Date”), the Company made an irrevocable election to settle its conversion obligations in cash by reference to the daily volume
weighted average price of the Company’s common stock during each applicable ten trading day conversion reference period. 
These conversions resulted in a settlement value in excess of the associated carrying value (the “conversion premium”).  As of
December 31, 2025, the conversion premium of $155.5 million was recorded within Other liabilities, with a corresponding
reduction to Additional paid-in capital.  In addition, the conversion resulted in a reduction to Deferred tax liability (net) on the
Consolidated Balance Sheets of $38.9 million, with a corresponding increase to Additional paid-in capital.  The Company’s
election to settle each applicable conversion premium in cash using a ten-day reference period was accounted for as a forward
sale contract, which resulted in a $9.2 million expense recorded in Other expenses (net), in the fourth quarter of 2025. 
On the Redemption Date, the Company redeemed $1.1 million of junior convertible securities which were not converted,
reflecting the principal amount of the redeemed securities, plus accrued and unpaid interest, up to, but not including, the
Redemption Date.
In January 2026, the Company settled each of its applicable conversion obligations in cash for an aggregate amount of
$514.6 million which resulted in an incremental expense related to the forward sale contract of $9.3 million.  The junior
convertible securities were considered contingent payment debt instruments under federal income tax regulations, which
required the Company to deduct interest in an amount greater than its reported interest expense (“excess interest expense
16
Table of Contents
AFFILIATED MANAGERS GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
deductions”).  As a result of the settlement of these securities, the Company incurred a current cash tax liability of
approximately $56 million, reflective of the recapture of excess interest expense deductions.
Prior to their redemption by the Company or requests for conversion by the holders, as applicable and described above, the
junior convertible securities bore interest at a rate of 5.15% per annum, which interest payments were payable quarterly in cash. 
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded interest expense of $4.5 million in connection with the
junior convertible securities, including contractual interest expense and amortization of debt issuance costs of $4.4 million and
$0.1 million, respectively.  For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the effective interest rate was 5.21%.
7.Commitments and Contingencies
From time to time, the Company and its Affiliates may be subject to claims, legal proceedings, and other contingencies in
the ordinary course of their business activities.  Any such matters are subject to various uncertainties, and it is possible that
some of these matters may be resolved in a manner unfavorable to the Company or its Affiliates.  The Company and its
Affiliates establish accruals, as necessary, for matters for which the outcome is probable and the amount of the liability can be
reasonably estimated.  For matters for which the outcome is probable but not reasonably estimable or where the outcome is
reasonably possible but not probable, the Company provides disclosure related to such matters, as necessary.
The Company has committed to co-invest in certain Affiliate sponsored investment products.  As of March 31, 2026, these
unfunded commitments were $420.9 million and may be called in future periods.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company was contingently liable to make payments in connection with a consolidated Affiliate,
which are included in Other liabilities. The Company is contingently liable to make maximum contingent payments of up to
$100.0 million ($24.9 million attributable to a co-investor).  The fair value of the contingent payment obligation was $0.0
million.  The final measurement date of the contingent payment obligation is in July 2026.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company was obligated to make deferred payments of $84.7 million related to certain of its
investments in Affiliates accounted for under the equity method, of which $55.8 million is payable during the remainder of
2026 and $28.9 million is payable in 2027.  Deferred payment obligations are included in Other liabilities.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company was contingently liable to make payments of $577.3 million related to the
achievement of specified financial targets by certain of its Affiliates accounted for under the equity method, of which $0.0
million may become payable during the remainder of 2026, $366.3 million may become payable in 2027, $35.8 million may
become payable in 2028, $40.3 million may become payable in each of 2029 and 2030, and $94.6 million may become payable
in 2031.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company was committed to provide one of its Affiliates accounted for under the equity method
a guarantee related to a credit facility used to fund a portion of the Affiliate’s commitments to certain of its investment
products.  The Company believes the likelihood of being required to fund its guarantee under this arrangement to be remote. 
The maximum amount of payments the Company could be required to make was $30.0 million and the fair value of the
guarantee liability was $0.0 million.
Affiliate equity interests provide holders at consolidated Affiliates with a conditional right to put their interests to the
Company over time.  See Note 12.
The Company and certain of its consolidated Affiliates operate under regulatory authorities that require the maintenance of
minimum financial or capital requirements.  The Company’s management is not aware of any significant violations of such
requirements.

Definite-lived acquired client relationships at the Company’s consolidated Affiliates are amortized over their expected
period of economic benefit.  The Company recorded amortization expense in Intangible amortization and impairments in the
Consolidated Statements of Income for these relationships of $6.3 million and $6.2 million for three months ended March 31,
2025 and 2026, respectively. Based on relationships existing as of March 31, 2026, the Company estimates that its
consolidated amortization expense will be approximately $20 million during the remainder of 2026, approximately $25 million
in each of 2027 and 2028, approximately $15 million in 2029, and approximately $10 million in each of 2030 and 2031.
In the first quarter of 2025, the Company completed an impairment assessment of the indefinite-lived acquired client
relationships for certain mutual fund assets and determined that the fair value of the assets had declined below their carrying
values.  Accordingly, the Company recorded an expense in Intangible amortization and impairments of $59.2 million
attributable to the controlling interest ($70.0 million in aggregate) to reduce the carrying value of the assets to fair value.  The
decline in the fair value was a result of current and projected declines in assets under management that decreased the forecasted
revenue associated with the assets.  The most relevant assumptions used in these analyses were revenue growth rates over the
next five years ranging from (21)% to 0%, long-term revenue growth rates of 0%, and discount rates of 11.0%.
In the first quarter of 2025, the Company also recorded an expense in Intangible amortization and impairments of
$4.0 million attributable to the controlling interest ($7.0 million in aggregate) to reduce the carrying value of an indefinite-lived
acquired client relationship to zero due to the closure of one of its Affiliate’s mutual fund products.
In the first quarter of 2026, the Company completed an impairment assessment of the indefinite-lived acquired client
relationships for certain mutual fund assets, and determined that the fair value of an asset had declined below its carrying value. 
Accordingly, the Company recorded an expense in Intangible amortization and impairments of $30.5 million attributable to the
controlling interest ($43.0 million in aggregate) to reduce the carrying value of the asset to fair value.  The decline in the fair
value was primarily the result of current and projected declines in assets under management and the related reduction in
forecasted revenue associated with the asset.  The most relevant assumptions used in this analysis related to the projected
trajectory of assets under management and associated revenue, as well as a discount rate of 10.5%.
9.Equity Method Investments in Affiliates
Certain of the Company’s investments in Affiliates are accounted for under the equity method.  The Company had 22 and
24 Affiliates accounted for under the equity method as of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026, respectively.  The majority
of these Affiliates are partnerships with structured interests that define how the Company will participate in Affiliate earnings,
typically based upon a fixed percentage of the Affiliate’s revenue less agreed-upon expenses.  The partnership agreements
generally do not define a fixed percentage for the Company’s ownership of the equity of the Affiliate.  These percentages
would be subject to a separate future negotiation if an Affiliate were to be sold or liquidated.  The financial results of certain
Affiliates accounted for under the equity method are recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements one quarter in arrears. 
The Company has determined that one of its Affiliates accounted for under the equity method is significant under Rule
10-01(b)(1) of Regulation S-X.  For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2026, this Affiliate recognized revenue of
$189.3 million and $441.9 million, respectively, and net income of $82.0 million and $305.6 million, respectively.

respectively.
In the first quarter of 2026, the Company completed its agreement with Brown Brothers Harriman (“BBH”) to acquire a
minority equity interest in BBH Credit Partners, BBH’s taxable fixed income and credit franchise, its additional minority
investment in Garda Capital Partners LP (“Garda”), a liquid alternatives manager specializing in fixed income relative value
strategies and an Affiliate since 2019, and its minority investment in HighBrook Investors (“HighBrook”), a private markets
manager specializing in real estate assets.  The majority of the consideration paid for Garda and a portion of the consideration
paid for HighBrook will be deductible for U.S. tax purposes over a 15-year life.  Following the close of the transaction, the
Company’s investment in Garda continues to be accounted for under the equity method.  The Company’s preliminary purchase
price allocations for each investment were measured using discounted cash flow analyses that included assumptions of expected
market performance, net client cash flows, and discount rates.
Definite-lived acquired client relationships at the Company’s Affiliates accounted for under the equity method are
amortized over their expected period of economic benefit.  The Company recorded amortization expense for these relationships
of $18.6 million and $26.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2026, respectively.  Based on relationships
existing as of March 31, 2026, the Company estimates the amortization expense attributable to its Affiliates will be
approximately $85 million for the remainder of 2026, approximately $110 million in 2027, approximately $100 million in 2028,
and approximately $85 million in each of 2029, 2030, and 2031.
In the first quarter of 2026, the Company recorded an $8.0 million expense to reduce the carrying value of an Affiliate to
fair value based on market indicators that its fair value had declined below its carrying value.
10.Related Party Transactions
The Company has related party transactions in association with its deferred and contingent payment obligations, and
Affiliate equity transactions, as more fully described in Notes 7, 11, and 12.
From time to time, certain funds of the Company’s consolidated Affiliates may make tax distributions to partners subject to
clawback.  The total receivable was $68.6 million and $75.5 million as of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026,
respectively, and was included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  The total payable was $99.3 million as of
December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026, and was included in Other liabilities.  These amounts were primarily attributable to
the non-controlling interests.
A prior owner of one of the Company’s consolidated Affiliates retains interests in certain of the Affiliate’s private equity
partnerships and, as a result, is a related party of the Company.  The prior owner’s interests are included in Other liabilities and
were $11.7 million and $10.4 million as of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026, respectively.
The Company may invest from time to time in funds or products advised by its Affiliates.  The Company’s executive
officers and directors may invest from time to time in funds advised or products offered by its Affiliates, or receive other
investment services provided by its Affiliates, on substantially the same terms as other participating investors.  The Company
and its Affiliates earn asset- and performance-based fees and incur distribution and other expenses for services provided to
Affiliate sponsored investment products.  In addition, the Company and its Affiliates earn fees or incur expenses related to the
19
Table of Contents
AFFILIATED MANAGERS GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
Company’s efforts to develop and distribute Affiliate products.  Affiliate management owners and the Company’s officers may
serve as trustees or directors of certain investment vehicles from which the Company or an Affiliate earns fees. 
From time to time, the Company may enter into ordinary course engagements for capital markets, banking, brokerage, and
other services with beneficial owners of 5% or more of the Company’s voting securities.
11.Redeemable Non-Controlling Interests
Affiliate equity interests provide holders with an equity interest in one of the Company’s consolidated Affiliates, consistent
with the structured partnership interests in place at the respective Affiliate.  Affiliate equity holders generally have a conditional
right to put their interests to the Company at certain intervals (between five years and 15 years from the date the equity interest
is received by the Affiliate equity holder or on an annual basis following an Affiliate equity holder’s departure).  Prior to
becoming redeemable, the Company’s Affiliate equity is included in Non-controlling interests.  Upon becoming redeemable,
these interests are reclassified to Redeemable non-controlling interests at their current redemption values.  Changes in the
current redemption value are recorded to Additional paid-in capital.  When the Company has an unconditional obligation to
purchase Affiliate equity interests, the interests are reclassified from Redeemable non-controlling interests to Other liabilities at
current fair value.  Changes in fair value are recorded to Other expenses (net).
The following table presents the changes in Redeemable non-controlling interests:

sponsored investment products primarily attributable to third-party investors of $32.2 million and $36.0 million,
respectively.
12.Affiliate Equity
Affiliate equity interests are allocated income in a manner that is consistent with the structured partnership interests in
place at the respective Affiliate.  The Company’s consolidated Affiliates generally pay quarterly distributions to Affiliate equity
holders.  Distributions paid to non-controlling interest Affiliate equity holders were $87.0 million and $84.1 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2026, respectively.
The Company periodically purchases Affiliate equity from and issues Affiliate equity to the Company’s consolidated
Affiliate partners and other parties under agreements that provide the Company a conditional right to call and Affiliate equity
holders the conditional right to put their Affiliate equity interests to the Company at certain intervals.  The Company has the
right to settle a portion of these purchases in shares of its common stock.  For Affiliates accounted for under the equity method,
the Company does not typically have such put and call arrangements.  For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2026,
the amount of cash paid for purchases was $29.8 million and $33.2 million, respectively.  For the three months ended March 31,
2025 and 2026, the total amount of cash received for issuances was $1.5 million and $3.9 million, respectively.
Sales and purchases of Affiliate equity generally occur at fair value; however, the Company also grants Affiliate equity to
its consolidated Affiliate partners and other parties as a form of compensation.  If the equity is issued for consideration below
the fair value of the equity, or purchased for consideration above the fair value of the equity, the difference is recorded as
compensation expense in Compensation and related expenses over the requisite service period.

The Company records amounts receivable from, and payable to, Affiliate equity holders in connection with the transfer of
Affiliate equity interests that have not settled at the end of the period.  The total receivable was $4.7 million and $6.7 million as
of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026, respectively, and was included in Other assets.  The total payable was $161.2
million and $194.2 million as of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026, respectively, and was included in Other liabilities.
Effects of Changes in the Company’s Ownership in Affiliates
The Company periodically acquires interests from, and transfers interests to, Affiliate equity holders.  Because these
transactions do not result in a change of control, any gain or loss related to these transactions is recorded to Additional paid-in
capital, which increases or decreases the controlling interest’s equity.  No gain or loss related to these transactions is recorded in
the Consolidated Statements of Income or the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
While the Company presents the current redemption value of Affiliate equity within Redeemable non-controlling interests,
with changes in the current redemption value increasing or decreasing the controlling interest’s equity over time, the following
table presents the cumulative effect that ownership changes had on the controlling interest’s equity related only to Affiliate
equity transactions that occurred during the applicable periods:

deferred tax expense of $0.1 million and $6.3 million, respectively.
(2)Taxes attributable to the controlling interest divided by income before income taxes (controlling interest).
The Company’s effective tax rate (controlling interest) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was higher than the
marginal tax rate of 24.5%, primarily due to non-deductible compensation and uncertain tax positions. 
The Company’s effective tax rate (controlling interest) for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was higher than the
marginal tax rate of 24.5%, primarily due to expenses attributable to Affiliate equity awards for which no tax benefit was
recorded, partially offset by tax windfalls attributable to share-based compensation.
The Company’s effective tax rate reflects the relative contributions of earnings in the jurisdictions in which the Company
and its Affiliates operate and is impacted by changes in the jurisdictional mix of income before taxes.
15.Earnings Per Share
The calculation of Earnings per share (basic) is based on the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s
common stock outstanding during the period.  Earnings per share (diluted) is similar to Earnings per share (basic), but adjusts
for the dilutive effect of the potential issuance of incremental shares of the Company’s common stock.

Executive Overview
AMG is a strategic partner to leading independent investment firms globally.  Our strategy is to generate long-term value
by investing in high-quality independent partner-owned firms, which we refer to as “Affiliates,” through a proven partnership
approach, and allocating resources across our unique opportunity set to the areas of highest growth and return.  With their
entrepreneurial, investment-centric cultures and alignment of interests with clients through direct equity ownership by firm
principals, independent firms have fundamental competitive advantages in offering unique return streams to the marketplace. 
Through AMG’s distinctive approach, we enhance these advantages to magnify the long-term success of our Affiliates and
actively support their independence.  Our innovative model enables each Affiliate’s management team to retain autonomy
and significant equity ownership in their firm, while they leverage our strategic capabilities and insight, including access to
growth capital, product strategy and development, capital formation capabilities, incentive alignment and succession
planning, and strategic advisory to expand their reach, diversify their business, and enhance their long-term success.  As of
March 31, 2026, our aggregate assets under management were approximately $882 billion across a diverse range of private
markets, liquid alternative, and differentiated long-only investment strategies.
In the first quarter of 2026, we completed our agreement with Brown Brothers Harriman (“BBH”) to acquire a minority
equity interest in BBH Credit Partners, BBH’s taxable fixed income and credit franchise, our additional minority investment
in Garda Capital Partners LP (“Garda”), a liquid alternatives manager specializing in fixed income relative value strategies
and an Affiliate since 2019, and our minority investment in HighBrook Investors (“HighBrook”), a private markets manager
specializing in real estate assets.  Following the close of the transactions, Affiliate management continues to hold a majority
of the equity of the respective businesses and directs the day-to-day operations, and, with respect to Garda, our investment
continues to be accounted for under the equity method.
Operating Performance Measures
Under accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”), we are required to consolidate certain of our
Affiliates and use the equity method of accounting for others.  Whether we consolidate an Affiliate or use the equity method of
accounting, we maintain the same innovative partnership approach and provide support and assistance in substantially the same
manner for all of our Affiliates.  Furthermore, all of our Affiliates are investment managers and are impacted by similar
marketplace factors and industry trends.  Therefore, certain key aggregate operating performance measures are important in
providing management with a comprehensive view of the operating performance and material trends across our entire business.

Assets under management, and therefore average assets under management, include the assets under management of our
consolidated and equity method Affiliates.  Assets under management is presented on a current basis without regard to the
timing of the inclusion of an Affiliate’s financial results in our operating performance measures and Consolidated Financial
Statements.  Average assets under management reflects the timing of the inclusion of an Affiliate’s financial results in our
operating performance measures and Consolidated Financial Statements.  Average assets under management for equities and
similar investment products generally represents an average of the daily net assets under management, while for liquid
alternatives and multi-asset and fixed income products, average assets under management generally represents an average of the
assets at the beginning or end of each month during the applicable period.  Average assets under management for private
markets products generally represents total commitments or invested assets under management.
Aggregate fees consist of the total asset- and performance-based fees earned by all of our consolidated and equity method
Affiliates.  In the case of our equity method Affiliates, asset- and performance-based fees are presented net of certain expense
reimbursements paid by the underlying products. For certain of our Affiliates accounted for under the equity method, we report
the Affiliate’s aggregate fees one quarter in arrears.  Aggregate fees are provided in addition to, but not as a substitute for,
Consolidated revenue or other GAAP performance measures.
Assets Under Management
Our Affiliates manage capital on behalf of clients across a diverse range of investment strategies.  Our Affiliates earn asset-
based fees on the capital that they manage and certain of our Affiliate’s strategies earn performance-based fees based on the
performance generated by their investment products.  For the three months ended March 31, 2026, assets under management
increased $68.7 billion or 8.4% driven by net client cash inflows and the addition of assets associated with new partnerships. 
We continue to see client demand for alternative strategies with broad-based demand for our Affiliates’ liquid alternative and
private markets strategies generating strong net inflows in the quarter, while our equity strategies experienced net outflows in
line with trends across the industry. As we continue to execute our growth strategy by investing in new and existing Affiliates,
as well as in AMG’s strategic capabilities, we expect our business mix to further evolve, expanding our exposure to in-demand
strategies in both private markets and liquid alternatives, better positioning AMG to continue to benefit from industry growth
trends with an increasingly diversified business profile.

(1)Past performance is not indicative of future results.  Performance and AUM information is as of March 31, 2026 and is
based on data available at the time of calculation.  Product returns are sourced from Affiliates while benchmark returns are
generally sourced via third-party subscriptions. 
(2)For private markets products, performance is reported as the percentage of assets that have outperformed benchmarks on a
since-inception internal rate of return basis.  Benchmarks utilized include a combination of public market equivalents, peer
medians, and absolute returns where benchmarks are not available.  For purposes of investment performance comparisons,
the latest vintage comparison includes the most recent vehicles and strategies (traditional long-duration investment funds,
customized vehicles, and other evergreen vehicles and product structures) where meaningful performance is available and
calculable.  In order to illustrate the performance of our private markets product category over a longer period of history,
the last three vintages comparison incorporates the latest vintage vehicles and the prior two vintages for traditional long-
duration investment funds, as well as additional vehicles and strategies launched during the equivalent time period as the
last three vintages of traditional long-duration investment funds.  Due to the nature of these investments and vehicles,
reported performance is typically on a three- to six-month lag basis.
(3)For liquid alternative and equity products, performance is reported as the percentage of assets that have outperformed
benchmarks across the indicated periods, and excludes market-hedging products.  For purposes of investment performance
27
Table of Contents
comparisons, products are an aggregation of portfolios (separate accounts, investment funds, and other products) that each
represent a particular investment objective, using the most representative portfolio for the performance comparison. 
Performance is presented for products with a three-, five-, and/or ten-year track record and is measured on a consistent
basis relative to the most appropriate benchmarks.  Benchmark appropriateness is generally reviewed annually to reflect
any changes in how underlying portfolios/mandates are managed.  Product and benchmark performance is reflected as total
return and is annualized.  Reported product performance is gross-of-fees for institutional and high-net-worth separate
accounts, and generally net-of-fees across retail funds and other commingled vehicles such as hedge funds.
(4)Multi-asset and fixed income products are mainly our wealth management and solutions offerings.  These investment
products are primarily customized toward wealth preservation, estate planning, and liability and tax management, and
therefore are typically not measured against a benchmark.
Aggregate Fees
Aggregate fees consist of asset- and performance-based fees of our consolidated and equity method Affiliates. In the case
of our equity method Affiliates, asset- and performance-based fees are presented net of certain expense reimbursements paid by
the underlying products. Asset-based fees include advisory and other fees earned by our Affiliates for services provided to their
clients and are typically determined as a percentage of the value of a client’s assets under management, generally inclusive of
uncalled commitments.  Asset-based fees are generally impacted by the level of average assets under management and the
composition of these assets across our strategies with different asset-based fee ratios.  Our asset-based fee ratio is calculated as
asset-based fees divided by average assets under management.
In some cases, if product returns exceed certain performance thresholds, we will participate in performance-based fees. 
Performance-based fees are based on investment performance, typically on an absolute basis or relative to a benchmark or a
hurdle rate, and are generally recognized when it is improbable that there will be a significant reversal in the amount of revenue
recognized.  Performance-based fees are generally recognized less frequently than asset-based fees and will vary from period to
period because they inherently depend on investment performance.  As of March 31, 2026, approximately 27% of our total
assets under management could potentially earn performance-based fees.  These percentages were approximately 12% and 40%
of our assets under management for our consolidated Affiliates and Affiliates accounted for under the equity method,
respectively.  We anticipate performance-based fees will be a recurring component of our aggregate fees; however we do not
anticipate these fees to be a significant component of our Consolidated revenue as these fees are predominately earned by our
Affiliates accounted for under the equity method.
Aggregate fees were $1,909.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, an increase of $639.5 million or 50% as
compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.  The increase in aggregate fees was due to a $400.5 million or 31%
increase from asset-based fees and a $239.0 million or 19% increase from performance-based fees, primarily in liquid
alternative strategies.  The increase in asset-based fees was principally due to an increase in our Affiliates’ average assets under
management, primarily in liquid alternative and multi-asset and fixed income strategies, including the impact of our
investments in new Affiliates, and changes in the composition of our assets under management, including net client cash flows
from our Affiliates managing alternative strategies, which typically have higher fee rates.

___________________________ 
(1)Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest) and Economic net income (controlling interest) are non-GAAP performance
measures and are discussed in “Supplemental Financial Performance Measures.”
Net income (controlling interest) increased $38.0 million or 52% for the three months ended March 31, 2026.  This
increase was primarily due to a $72.1 million increase in Equity method income (net) and a $32.7 million decrease in Intangible
28
Table of Contents
amortization and impairments attributable to the controlling interest, partially offset by a $34.6 million increase in Affiliate
equity expense attributable to the controlling interest and a $21.0 million increase in Income tax expense attributable to the
controlling interest.
Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest) is an important supplemental financial performance measure for management. 
Our Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest) increased $89.1 million or 39% for the three months ended March 31, 2026,
primarily due to a $639.5 million or 50% increase in aggregate fees.  Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest) increased less
than aggregate fees on a percentage basis primarily due to an increase in earnings at certain Affiliates, many of which manage
alternative strategies and are accounted for under the equity method, and therefore we own less of an economic interest.
We believe Economic net income (controlling interest) is an important supplemental financial performance measure
because it represents our performance before non-cash expenses relating to the acquisition of interests in Affiliates and
improves comparability of performance between periods.  For the three months ended March 31, 2026, our Economic net
income (controlling interest) increased $65.9 million or 42%, primarily due to an $89.1 million or 39% increase in Adjusted
EBITDA (controlling interest).
Results of Operations
The following discussion includes the key operating performance measures and financial results of our consolidated and
equity method Affiliates.  Our consolidated Affiliates’ financial results are included in Consolidated revenue, Consolidated
expenses, and Investment and other income, and our share of our equity method Affiliates’ financial results is reported, net of
intangible amortization and impairments and tax, in Equity method income (net) in our Consolidated Statements of Income.

Consolidated revenue increased $48.3 million or 10% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, due to a $54.9 million or
11% increase from asset-based fees, partially offset by a $6.6 million or 1% decrease from performance-based fees, primarily in
private markets strategies.  The increase in asset-based fees was principally due to an increase in our consolidated Affiliates’
average assets under management, primarily in private markets and multi-asset and fixed income strategies, and changes in the
composition of our assets under management.

Table of Contents
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $12.7 million or 13% for the three months ended March 31, 2026,
primarily due to a $7.1 million increase in distribution and investment-related expenses, principally as a result of the increase in
average assets under management on which these expenses are incurred, and a $5.6 million increase in professional fees.
Intangible amortization and impairments decreased $34.1 million or 41% for the three months ended March 31, 2026,
primarily due to a $34.0 million decrease in expenses to reduce the carrying value of indefinite-lived acquired client
relationships for certain mutual fund assets to fair value.
Interest expense increased $4.3 million or 13% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, primarily due to a $6.0 million
increase from our 5.50% senior unsecured notes issued in December 2025 (the “2036 senior notes”) and a $5.8 million increase
from borrowings under our senior unsecured multicurrency revolving credit facility (the “revolver”).  These increases were
partially offset by a $4.4 million decrease due to the repayment of our junior convertible trust preferred securities in January
2026 and a $3.2 million decrease due to the maturity of our 3.50% senior notes in August 2025.
There were no significant changes to Depreciation and other amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Other expenses (net) increased $9.6 million or 82% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, primarily due to a $9.3
million increase in expenses related to the settlement of conversions with respect to our former junior convertible securities. 
See Note 6 of our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Equity Method Income (Net)
For our Affiliates accounted for under the equity method, we use structured partnership interests in which we contractually
share in the Affiliate’s revenue or revenue less agreed-upon expenses.  Our share of pre-tax earnings or losses from Affiliates
accounted for under the equity method (“pre-tax equity method earnings”), net of intangible amortization and impairments and
tax, is included in Equity method income (net).  For certain of our Affiliates accounted for under the equity method, we report
the Affiliate’s financial results in our Consolidated Financial Statements one quarter in arrears.
The following table presents our equity method Affiliates’ average assets under management and equity method Affiliate
revenue, net of certain expense reimbursements paid by the underlying products (“equity method revenue, net”), as well as pre-
tax equity method earnings, equity method intangible amortization, equity method intangible impairments, if any, and equity
method income tax, which in aggregate form Equity method income (net):

liquid alternative strategies.  The increase in asset-based fees was principally due to an increase in our equity method Affiliates’
average assets under management, primarily in liquid alternative and multi-asset and fixed income strategies, including the
impact of our investments in new Affiliates, and changes in the composition of our assets under management, including net
client cash flows from our equity method Affiliates managing alternative strategies, which typically have higher fee rates.

Table of Contents
Pre-tax equity method earnings increased $86.7 million or 87% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, primarily due
to a $591.2 million or 76% increase in equity method revenue, net.  Pre-tax equity method earnings increased more than equity
method revenue, net on a percentage basis primarily due to margin expansion at certain Affiliates.
Equity method intangible amortization increased $8.0 million or 43% for the three months ended March 31, 2026,
primarily due to a $10.8 million increase in amortization expense due to investments in new Affiliates, partially offset by a $1.1
million decrease in amortization expense related to certain definite-lived assets being fully amortized.
Equity method intangible impairments increased $8.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026.  See Note 9 of
our Consolidated Financial Statements.
There were no significant changes to equity method income tax for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Income tax expense increased $19.1 million or 70% for the three months ended March 31, 2026.  Our effective tax rate
(controlling interest) for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was 29.3% as compared to 25.4% for the three months ended
March 31, 2025.  The increase in the effective tax rate (controlling interest) was primarily due to expenses attributable to
Affiliate equity awards for which no tax benefit was recorded, partially offset by higher tax windfalls attributable to share-based
compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Supplemental Financial Performance Measures
As supplemental information to our GAAP performance measures, including Net income (see Note 17 of our Consolidated
Financial Statements), we provide non-GAAP performance measures of Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest), Economic net
income (controlling interest), and Economic earnings per share.  We believe that many investors use our Adjusted EBITDA
(controlling interest) when comparing our financial performance to other companies in the investment management industry. 
Management utilizes these non-GAAP performance measures to assess our performance before our share of certain non-cash
GAAP expenses primarily related to the acquisition of interests in Affiliates and to improve comparability between periods. 
Economic net income (controlling interest) and Economic earnings per share are used by management and our Board of
Directors as our principal performance benchmarks, including as one of the measures for determining executive compensation. 
These non-GAAP performance measures are provided in addition to, but not as a substitute for, Net income, Net income
(controlling interest), Earnings per share, or other GAAP performance measures.
Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest)
Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest) represents our performance before our share of interest expense, income and
certain non-income based taxes, depreciation, amortization, impairments, gains and losses related to Affiliate transactions, and
non-cash items such as certain Affiliate equity-related activities, gains and losses on our contingent payment obligations, and
unrealized gains and losses on seed capital, general partner commitments, and other strategic investments.  Adjusted EBITDA
(controlling interest) is also adjusted to include realized economic gains and losses related to these seed capital, general partner
commitments, and other strategic investments.

capital, general partner commitments, and other strategic investments.  For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the
increase in other items was predominantly the result of Affiliate equity-related activities.

Table of Contents
Economic Net Income (controlling interest) and Economic Earnings Per Share
Under our Economic net income (controlling interest) definition, we adjust Net income (controlling interest) for our share
of pre-tax intangible amortization and impairments related to intangible assets (including the portion attributable to equity
method investments in Affiliates) because these expenses do not correspond to the changes in the value of these assets, which
do not diminish predictably over time.  We also adjust for deferred taxes attributable to intangible assets because we believe it
is unlikely these accruals will be used to settle material tax obligations.  Further, we adjust for gains and losses related to
Affiliate transactions, net of tax, and other economic items. 
Economic earnings per share represents Economic net income (controlling interest) divided by the Average shares
outstanding (adjusted diluted).  In this calculation, we exclude the potential shares issued upon settlement of Redeemable non-
controlling interests from Average shares outstanding (adjusted diluted) because we intend to settle those obligations without
issuing shares, consistent with all prior Affiliate equity purchase transactions.  The potential share issuance in connection with
our former junior convertible securities is measured using a “treasury stock” method.  Under this method, only the net number
of shares of common stock equal to the value of the junior convertible securities in excess of par, if any, are deemed to be
outstanding.  We believe the inclusion of net shares under a treasury stock method best reflects the benefit of the increase in
available capital resources (which could be used to repurchase shares of our common stock) that occurs when these securities
are converted and we are relieved of our debt obligation.

capital, general partner commitments, and other strategic investments.  For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the
increase in other economic items was predominantly the result of Affiliate equity-related activities.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We generate long-term value by investing in new Affiliate partnerships, existing Affiliates, and strategic value-add
capabilities through which we can leverage our scale and resources to benefit our Affiliates and enhance their long-term growth
prospects.  Given our annual cash generation from operations, in addition to investing for growth in our business, we are also
able to return excess capital to shareholders primarily through share repurchases.  We continue to manage our capital structure
consistent with an investment grade company and are currently rated A3 by Moody’s Investor Services and BBB+ by S&P
Global Ratings.
33
Table of Contents
Cash and cash equivalents were $376.1 million as of March 31, 2026 and were attributable to both our controlling and the
non-controlling interests.  In the three months ended March 31, 2026, we met our cash requirements primarily through cash
generated by operating activities and senior bank debt borrowings.  Our principal uses of cash in the three months ended
March 31, 2026 were for investments in new Affiliates, settlement of each of our conversion obligations with respect to our
former junior convertible securities, the return of excess capital through share repurchases, distributions to Affiliate equity
holders, and repayment of debt.
We expect investments in new Affiliates, investments in existing Affiliates, primarily through purchases of Affiliate equity
interests and general partner and seed capital investments, the return of capital through share repurchases and the payment of
cash dividends on our common stock, repayment of debt, distributions to Affiliate equity holders, payment of income taxes, and
general working capital to be the primary uses of cash on a consolidated basis for the foreseeable future.  We anticipate that our
current cash balance, cash flows from operations, and borrowings under the revolver will be sufficient to support our uses of
cash for the foreseeable future.  In addition, we may draw funding from the debt and equity capital markets, and our credit
ratings, among other factors, allow us to access these sources of funding on favorable terms.

Operating Cash Flow
Operating cash flows are calculated by adjusting Net income for other significant sources and uses of cash, significant non-
cash items, and timing differences in the cash settlement of assets and liabilities. 
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, Cash flows from operating activities were $299.3 million, primarily from
distributions of earnings received from equity method investments of $294.4 million and Net income of $146.4 million adjusted
for non-cash items of $74.2 million.  These items were partially offset by timing differences in the cash settlement of
receivables, other assets, and payables, accrued liabilities, and other liabilities of $63.3 million.  For the three months ended
March 31, 2026, operating cash flows were primarily attributable to the controlling interest.
Investing Cash Flow
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, Cash flows used in investing activities were $229.0 million, primarily due to
$242.3 million of investments in Affiliates and $18.6 million of purchases of investment securities.  These items were partially
offset by $35.7 million of maturities and sales of investment securities.  For the three months ended March 31, 2026, investing
cash flows were primarily attributable to the controlling interest.
Financing Cash Flow
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, Cash flows used in financing activities were $277.3 million, primarily due to
the settlement of junior convertible securities of $514.6 million, $185.1 million of repurchases of common stock, net,
$84.1 million of distributions to non-controlling interests, repayment of senior bank debt borrowings of $60.0 million, $35.2
million of taxes paid on shares withheld for share-based awards, and $29.3 million of Affiliate equity purchases, net of
issuances.  These items were partially offset by senior bank debt borrowings of $625.0 million.  For the three months ended
March 31, 2026, financing cash flows were primarily attributable to the controlling interest.
Affiliate Equity
We periodically purchase Affiliate equity from and issue Affiliate equity to our consolidated Affiliate partners and other
parties under agreements that provide us with a conditional right to call and Affiliate equity holders with a conditional right to
put their Affiliate equity interests to us at certain intervals.  We have the right to settle a portion of these purchases in shares of
our common stock.  For Affiliates accounted for under the equity method, we do not typically have such put and call
arrangements.  The purchase price of these conditional purchases is generally calculated based upon a multiple of the Affiliate’s
cash flow distributions, which is intended to represent fair value.  In certain cases, Affiliate equity holders are also permitted to
sell their equity interests to Affiliate partners or other parties, subject to our approval or other restrictions.

Table of Contents
As of March 31, 2026, the current redemption value of Affiliate equity interests was $458.2 million, of which $264.0
million was presented as Redeemable non-controlling interests (including $36.0 million of consolidated Affiliate sponsored
investment products primarily attributable to third-party investors), and $194.2 million was included in Other liabilities on the
Consolidated Balance Sheets.  Although the timing and amounts of these purchases are difficult to predict, we paid $33.2
million for Affiliate equity purchases and received $3.9 million for Affiliate equity issuances during the three months ended
March 31, 2026, and we expect net purchases of approximately $65 million of Affiliate equity during the remainder of 2026.  In
the event of a purchase, we become the owner of the cash flow associated with the purchased equity.  See Notes 11 and 12 of
our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Share Repurchases
Our Board of Directors authorized share repurchase programs in July 2024 and January 2026 to repurchase up to 5.4
million and 4.2 million shares of our common stock, respectively, and these authorizations have no expiry.  Purchases may be
made from time to time, at management’s discretion, in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, including
through the use of trading plans, as well as pursuant to accelerated share repurchase programs or other share repurchase
strategies that may include derivative financial instruments.  During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we repurchased
0.6 million shares of our common stock at an average price per share of $307.01.  As of March 31, 2026, there were a total of
5.6 million shares available for repurchase under our share repurchase programs.

In addition to customary event of default provisions, the indenture governing the senior notes, including the applicable
supplemental indentures with respect to the 2030, 2034, and 2036 senior notes, limits our ability to consolidate, merge, or sell
all or substantially all of our assets, and requires us to make an offer to repurchase the applicable senior notes at 101% of the
principal amount (plus any accrued and unpaid interest), upon certain change of control triggering events.  The senior notes
may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at a make-whole redemption price (plus accrued and unpaid interest), at any time prior to
March 15, 2030, in the case of the 2030 senior notes, at any time prior to May 20, 2034, in the case of the 2034 senior notes,
and at any time prior to November 15, 2035, in the case of the 2036 senior notes.  In addition, the 2030, 2034, and 2036 senior
notes may be redeemed at par (plus accrued and unpaid interest), in whole or in part, at any time, on or after March 15, 2030,
May 20, 2034, and November 15, 2035, respectively.  We may also repurchase senior notes in the open market or in privately

As of March 31, 2026, each of the 2059 and the 2060 junior subordinated notes could be redeemed at any time, in whole or

in the case of the 2061 junior subordinated notes, and on or after March 30, 2029, in the case of the 2064 junior subordinated
notes.  In each case, the junior subordinated notes may be redeemed at 100% of the principal amount of the notes being
redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon.  Prior to the applicable redemption date, at our option, the applicable
junior subordinated notes may also be redeemed, in whole but not in part, at 100% of the principal amount, plus any accrued
and unpaid interest, if certain changes in tax laws, regulations, or interpretations occur; or at 102% of the principal amount, plus
any accrued and unpaid interest, if a rating agency makes certain changes relating to the equity credit criteria for securities with
features similar to the applicable notes.
Junior Convertible Securities
On December 8, 2025, we delivered notice that we had elected to redeem all of our outstanding 5.15% junior convertible
trust preferred securities (the “junior convertible securities”) on December 29, 2025 (the “Redemption Date”), and announced
our intention to settle any and all conversion obligations in cash.  Substantially all holders of the junior convertible securities
delivered requests to convert their securities prior to the Redemption Date.  On December 15, 2025 (the “Election Date”), we
made an irrevocable election to settle our conversion obligations in cash by reference to the daily volume weighted average
price of our common stock during each applicable ten trading day conversion reference period.  These conversions resulted in a
settlement value in excess of the associated carrying value (the “conversion premium”).  As of December 31, 2025, the
36
Table of Contents
conversion premium of $155.5 million was recorded within Other liabilities, with a corresponding reduction to Additional paid-
in capital.  In addition, the conversion resulted in a reduction to Deferred tax liability (net) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets
of $38.9 million, with a corresponding increase to Additional paid-in capital.  Our election to settle each applicable conversion
premium in cash using a ten-day reference period was accounted for as a forward sale contract, which resulted in a $9.2 million
expense recorded in Other expenses (net), in the fourth quarter of 2025. 
On the Redemption Date, we redeemed $1.1 million of junior convertible securities which were not converted, reflecting
the principal amount of the redeemed securities, plus accrued and unpaid interest, up to, but not including, the Redemption
Date. 
In January 2026, we settled each of our applicable conversion obligations in cash for an aggregate amount of
$514.6 million which resulted in an incremental expense related to the forward sale contract of $9.3 million.  The junior
convertible securities were considered contingent payment debt instruments under federal income tax regulations, which
required us to deduct interest in an amount greater than our reported interest expense (“excess interest expense deductions”). 
As a result of the settlement of these securities, we incurred a current cash tax liability of approximately $56 million, reflective
of the recapture of excess interest expense deductions. 
Prior to their redemption or requests for conversion by the holders, as applicable and described above, the junior
convertible securities bore interest at a rate of 5.15% per annum, which interest payments were payable quarterly in cash.
Equity Distribution Program
In the first quarter of 2025, we entered into an equity distribution agreement and forward sale agreements with several
major securities firms under which we may, from time to time, issue and sell shares of our common stock (immediately or on a
forward basis) having an aggregate sales price of up to $500.0 million (the “equity distribution program”).  This equity
distribution program superseded and replaced our prior equity distribution program.  As of March 31, 2026, no sales had
occurred under the equity distribution program.
Commitments
See Note 7 of our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Other Contingent Commitments
See Notes 4 and 7 of our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Leases
As of March 31, 2026, our lease obligations were $21.8 million for the remainder of 2026, $61.4 million from 2027
through 2028, $56.2 million from 2029 through 2030, and $60.7 million thereafter.  The portion of these lease obligations
attributable to the controlling interest were $3.3 million for the remainder of 2026, $6.7 million from 2027 through 2028, $6.5
million from 2029 through 2030, and $11.0 million thereafter.
Recent Accounting Developments

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments
Our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10‑K includes additional information about our Critical Accounting Estimates and
Judgments, and should be read in conjunction with this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q.
Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There have been no material changes to our Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk for the three
months ended March 31, 2026.  Please refer to Item 7A of our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Item 4.Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures during the quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  Based upon that evaluation, our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that (i) the information required to be disclosed by
37
Table of Contents
us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is
recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s
rules and forms, and (ii) such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal
executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  In
designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how
well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our
management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures. 
Our disclosure controls and procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their stated objectives, and
our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were
effective at the reasonable assurance level.  We review on an ongoing basis and document our disclosure controls and
procedures, and our internal control over financial reporting, and we may from time to time make changes in an effort to
enhance their effectiveness and ensure that our systems evolve with our business.
No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange
Act) occurred during the quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

February 10, 2026
PERSONAL & CONFIDENTIAL
Thomas M. Wojcik
Dear Tom:
I am writing this letter to confirm your agreement to the terms of your separation from
Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (“AMG”).  As we have discussed, AMG will provide you with
the consideration described in this Agreement in exchange for the promises contained in this
Agreement (including the annexes hereto, the “Agreement”).
1.Departure Date.  You and AMG have mutually agreed that your employment with
AMG will end as of March 6, 2026 (the “Departure Date”).  As of the Departure Date, you will
resign from all positions you hold as an officer, director or otherwise with respect to AMG or
any of its subsidiaries, affiliated entities or joint ventures (together, “Affiliates”).
2.Compensation, Benefits, and Incentive Awards
(a)AMG will:
i.Continue to pay you your base salary, at the annual rate of $500,000 (your
“Base Salary”), through the Departure Date.
ii.Continue to employ you from the date hereof through the Departure Date
(the “Transition Period”), during which time you will work to complete the transition of
your job responsibilities, as instructed by your manager. 
iii.Continue in full force and effect during the Transition Period all employee
benefits generally available to all AMG employees.
(b)In consideration of your timely execution of this Agreement in accordance with
Section 3(d) (i.e., within three (3) business days of the date of this Agreement), AMG will pay
you a lump sum cash payment in the total gross amount of $300,000 (the “First Separation
Payment”), to be paid no later than March 15, 2026.  For the avoidance of doubt, the First
Separation Payment will be considered supplemental wages for income tax withholding purposes
and, as noted in Section 2(g) below, appropriate deductions will be applied at the time of the
payment.
2
(c)In consideration of your timely execution of the Supplemental Release of Claims,
attached hereto as Annex A (the “Supplemental Release”) (i.e., within twenty-one (21) days of
the date of this Agreement) and non-revocation of the Supplemental Release (i.e., you do not
revoke within seven (7) days of the date you execute the Supplemental Release) in accordance
with its terms, as well as your ongoing transition of your job responsibilities during the
Transition Period and continued compliance with AMG policies:
i.AMG will pay you a lump sum cash payment in the total gross amount of
$4,300,000 (the “Second Separation Payment”), to be paid no later than March 15, 2026
in recognition of potential incentive compensation for the 2025 performance year that
may have been paid to you.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Second Separation Payment
will be considered supplemental wages for income tax withholding purposes and, as
noted in Section 2(g) below, appropriate deductions will be applied at the time of the
payment.
ii.As to any equity awards (the “Awards”) you have previously been granted
under the award agreements and/or plan documents signed and/or acknowledged by you
in connection with the grants of the Awards (collectively, the “Award Agreements”)
which remain outstanding, you will continue to vest in such Awards through and
including the Departure Date in accordance with the applicable terms of the Award
Agreements and the AMG 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (collectively, the “Equity Award
Documentation”), including but not limited to those certain Awards scheduled to vest on
March 5, 2026.  Notwithstanding any provision of the Equity Award Documentation to
the contrary, (A) you and AMG acknowledge and agree that your termination of
employment is a mutually agreed separation, and shall not be deemed a termination by
AMG without Cause or by you for Good Reason (as each such term is defined and further
set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement (as defined below) and/or Award Agreements,
as applicable) for purposes of any of the Awards, the Confidentiality Agreement (as
defined below), or otherwise, including with respect to any prorated vesting under any
Awards; and (B) you acknowledge and agree that each of your Awards shall, to the extent
not vested as of the Departure Date, be immediately forfeited, cancelled and terminated
as of the close of business on the Departure Date and be of no further force or effect,
without any consideration being paid therefor.  For the avoidance of doubt, any options in
which you are vested shall remain exercisable for a period of ninety (90) days from the
Departure Date in accordance with the terms of such option awards, and shall thereafter
be terminated (to the extent not so exercised).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary,
(i) you agree that, on or prior to the Departure Date, you will not, without the prior
written consent of AMG, directly or indirectly: (a) offer, sell, pledge, or otherwise
dispose of any shares of AMG stock, other than your Permitted Sale Amount (as defined
in the AMG Equity Holding Policy) in connection with your March 5, 2026 vesting
event; (b) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers any of the economic
consequences of ownership; or (c) engage in any short sale or hedging transaction, (ii)
you shall remain subject at all times to the Insider Trading Policy and Procedures through
the Departure Date, and, for ninety (90) days following the Departure Date, you shall
continue to be subject to the requirements and restrictions set forth in such policy, and
3
(iii) you shall remain subject to the existing required holding period with respect to your
AMG shares delivered pursuant to your stock option agreement dated as of August 15,
2019 (the “Stock Option Agreement”). 
(d)In consideration of your timely re-execution of the Supplemental Release (i.e.,
within twenty-one (21) days following the Departure Date) and non-revocation of the
Supplemental Release (i.e., you do not revoke within seven (7) days following your re-execution
of the Supplemental Release) in accordance with its terms, and subject to your satisfactory
completion of the transition of your job responsibilities during the Transition Period (as
reasonably determined by AMG), as well as your continued compliance with AMG policies,
AMG will pay you a lump sum cash payment in the total gross amount of $425,000 (the “Third
Separation Payment”), to be paid no later than April 15, 2026.  For the avoidance of doubt, the
Third Separation Payment will be considered supplemental wages for income tax withholding
purposes and, as noted in Section 2(g) below, appropriate deductions will be applied at the time
of the payment.
(e)Subject to your timely execution of this Agreement, your timely execution and re-
execution and, in each case, non-revocation of the Supplemental Release, your satisfactory
completion of the transition of your job responsibilities during the Transition Period (as
reasonably determined by AMG), as well as your continued compliance with AMG policies,
AMG will pay you a “Contractual Payment” (as set forth on Annex B) provided that (x) you
timely certify, on or within fourteen (14) days prior to the “Certification Due Date” (as specified
on Annex B), that (I) you are not, and have not since your Departure Date, engaged in any
Competitive Activity (as defined in Annex C) without AMG’s advance written approval (which
approval AMG may give in its sole discretion), (II) you have not, since your Departure Date,
violated your non-disparagement obligations, and (III) you have otherwise complied with the
terms and conditions of this Agreement and each other continuing obligation you have to AMG
and its subsidiaries and Affiliates (as defined herein), including, without limitation, those set
forth in the Employee Confidentiality and Non-Competition Agreement and other
Confidentiality Agreements between you and AMG (collectively, and including any
supplemental terms thereto, the “Confidentiality Agreement”), as well as the Award Agreements
and (y) AMG makes a good faith determination (in its sole discretion) that you have complied
with the foregoing obligations, provided that AMG shall first provide you with prompt written
notice via email and overnight delivery service to you at the address listed in this Agreement or
such other subsequent address as you may provide to AMG, and a reasonable opportunity to be
heard (and your opportunity to be represented by counsel if you so choose) prior to making an
adverse determination.  Such certification shall be in the form attached as Annex C (or such form
of certification that may subsequently be provided by AMG) (a “Certification and General
Release of Claims”).  The Contractual Payment for which you become eligible in accordance
with the foregoing shall be payable as set forth on Annex B.  For the avoidance of doubt, (A) the
Contractual Payment will be considered supplemental wages for income tax withholding
purposes and, as noted in Section 2(g) below, appropriate tax deductions will be applied at the
time of the payment, and (B) your inability to provide the foregoing Certification and General
Release of Claims in a timely manner in any period prior to the Certification Due Date (whether
due to your engagement in a Competitive Activity, your violation of your non-disparagement
4
obligations, your non-compliance with your continuing obligations to AMG and its subsidiaries
and Affiliates, or otherwise) shall render you ineligible for the Contractual Payment provided for
herein.
(f)In the event that you fail at any time to meet any of your obligations under this
Agreement or otherwise violate an AMG policy, following a good faith determination by AMG
(provided that with respect to any determination as to Section 2(e), AMG shall first provide you
with prompt written notice via email and overnight delivery service to you at the address listed in
this Agreement or such other subsequent address as you may provide to AMG, and a reasonable
opportunity to be heard (and your opportunity to be represented by counsel if you so choose)
prior to making an adverse determination), you will have no entitlement to the value, benefits or
payments in Sections 2(b), (c), (d) or (e) above, including no right to continued payments of Base
Salary or vesting of Awards during the Transition Period, the First Separation Payment, the
Second Separation Payment, the Third Separation Payment or the Contractual Payment, and you
will be responsible for surrendering any value, benefits or payments that you received under
Sections 2(b), (c), (d) and (e) above (including the First Separation Payment, the Second
Separation Payment, the Third Separation Payment and the Contractual Payment), except as
otherwise provided by applicable law.  In addition, AMG may avail itself of all other remedies or
claims in law or equity relating to any breach of your obligations, and shall be entitled to an
award of reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in securing any of the foregoing remedies.  Any
failure by you to meet your obligations under this Agreement shall not affect the validity of your
release of claims in Section 3 of this Agreement, the release of claims in the Supplemental
Release or any Certification and General Release of Claims, and shall not relieve you of your
obligations under this Agreement or under any other agreement between you and AMG (or any
subsidiary or parent thereof).
(g)AMG shall reduce payments made to you under this Agreement by deductions
and withholdings that it determines to be required by law and all other lawful deductions
authorized by you, and AMG shall make such tax-related reporting that it determines to be
required with respect to any payments under this Agreement.   
(h)You acknowledge and agree that the payments and benefits provided under
Section 2(a) are in complete satisfaction of any and all compensation, benefits and payments due
to you from AMG, whether for services provided to AMG or any of its Affiliates or otherwise
through the date your employment with AMG terminates, and that no further compensation,
benefits or payments are owed or will be paid to you by AMG or any related entity, other than
any continued payments of Base Salary during the Transition Period, the First Separation
Payment, the Second Separation Payment, the Third Separation Payment or Contractual Payment
for which you become eligible, subject to the terms hereof. 
3.General Release of Claims
(a)You, on your own behalf and that of your heirs, executors, administrators,
beneficiaries, personal representatives and assigns, and all others connected with or claiming
through you, hereby agree that this Agreement shall be in complete and final settlement of any
5
and all actions, causes of action, rights and claims, charges, complaints, sums of money, suits,
debts, covenants, contracts, agreements, promises, obligations, damages, demands or liabilities of
every kind whatsoever, in law or in equity, whether known or unknown (collectively, “Claims”)
that you have had in the past, now have, or might now have, (i) arising from the beginning of
time through the date upon which you execute this Agreement, in any way related to, connected
with, or arising out of, your employment or your other associations with AMG or any of the
Releasees (as defined below), or pursuant to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans
with Disabilities Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the fair
employment practices laws and statutes of any state or states in which you have provided
services to AMG or any of its Affiliates (each as amended from time to time), including, but not
limited to, the Massachusetts Fair Employment Practices Act, the Massachusetts Wage Act, the
Connecticut Family and Medical Leave Act, the Connecticut Whistleblower Law, the
Connecticut Free Speech Law, the Connecticut Fair Employment Practices Act, Connecticut’s
minimum wage and wage payment laws, the anti-retaliation provision of the Connecticut
Workers’ Compensation Act, the New York State Human Rights Law, the New York City
Human Rights Law, the New York Labor Law, the New York State Worker Adjustment and
Retraining Notification Act, the New York Civil Rights Law, Section 125 of the New York
Workers’ Compensation Law, and/or any other federal, state or local law, regulation or other
requirement, in each case, that may be legally waived and released, or (ii) in any way related to,
connected with, or arising out of, the termination of your employment or other association with
AMG or any of the Releasees or any policy, agreement, understanding or promise, written or
oral, formal or informal, between AMG or any of the Releasees and you, and you hereby release
and forever discharge AMG and its Affiliates and all of their respective past, present and future
directors, shareholders, officers, members, managers, general and limited partners, employees,
employee benefit plans, administrators, trustees, agents, representatives, predecessors, successors
and assigns, and all others connected with any of them, both individually and in their official
capacities (collectively, the “Releasees”), from any and all such Claims; provided, however, that
notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 3(a) shall in any way diminish
or impair:  (A) any Claims you may have that cannot be waived under applicable law, (B) rights
under this Agreement, (C) any rights you may have to vested benefits under employee benefit
plans, or (D) any claim for indemnification or contribution to which you may be entitled as a
current or former officer of AMG, whether by contract, insurance policy, or under applicable law
or the by-laws of AMG.
(b)This Agreement, including the general release of claims set forth in this Section 3,
creates legally binding obligations, and AMG therefore advises you to consult an attorney before
signing this Agreement.  You acknowledge and agree that, in executing this Agreement, (i) you
are receiving benefits and payments to which you would not otherwise be entitled unless you
sign this Agreement, (ii) you have carefully read and fully understand all of the provisions of this
Agreement, and (iii) you have the full power, capacity and authority to enter into this Agreement.
(c)In signing this Agreement, you further give AMG assurance that (i) you signed it
freely, knowingly and voluntarily and with a full understanding of its terms, (ii) you have had
sufficient opportunity before executing this Agreement to consider its terms (including, without
limitation, the general release of claims in this Section 3) and to consult with an attorney of your
6
choosing, if you wished to do so, (iii) you have not relied on any promises or representations,
express or implied, by any representative or agent of AMG or any person or entity referenced
herein, including the Releasees, concerning the meaning of any aspect of this Agreement that are
not set forth expressly in this Agreement, and (iv) you have not engaged in conduct constituting
Cause (as such term is defined and further set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement and/or
Award Agreements, as applicable).
(d)You have three (3) business days from the date you receive this Agreement to
execute and return this Agreement.  However, you may execute and return this Agreement
sooner if you wish.  This Agreement shall become effective and enforceable on the date that you
sign it.  If you violate any of the provisions of this Agreement, including confidentiality, or if
you do not timely sign this Agreement, this Agreement, including AMG’s offer of the payment
set forth in Section 2(b) and the release of claims in Section 3(a), will be of no force or effect,
and AMG’s offer of payment and benefits, as set forth in Sections 2(c), (d) and (e), shall be null
and void.
4.Cooperation
(a)You agree to assist and cooperate at all times with AMG (and, as requested by
AMG, its Affiliates) by responding to requests for information and assistance concerning any
matters related to your responsibilities during your employment.
(b)Similarly, and subject to Section 5 below, for all times, you shall cooperate fully
with AMG and its Affiliates in the defense or prosecution of any claims or actions which may be
pending or which may be brought in the future against or on behalf of AMG or its Affiliates that
relate to events or occurrences during your employment with AMG (without unreasonably
interfering with any of your then-current professional commitments).  Your obligations shall
include providing truthful information or testimony when requested by AMG or its Affiliates
without the necessity of a subpoena and providing information to AMG or its Affiliates or their
counsel when requested. 
(c)You shall return any and all “Property” to AMG promptly following any such
request by AMG.  You further agree that, as of the Departure Date, you will remove any
indication on your LinkedIn profile and other social media profiles that you are currently
employed by AMG.  “Property” means all documents, records, materials, information, software,
equipment, keys, access cards, credit cards, identifications, and other physical and electronic
property of AMG or any of its Affiliates, including any such documents or other materials which
contain Confidential Information (as defined below), and all copies of any of these, that have
come into your possession or have been produced by you in connection with your employment. 
To the extent you have any of the foregoing Property of AMG in electronic form (for example, in
your personal cloud storage or email account or on a personal computer), you shall identify such
documents to AMG, deliver identical copies of such documents to AMG (if AMG so requests),
and follow AMG’s instructions regarding the permanent deletion or retention of such documents. 
To the extent that you identify prior to your Departure Date any contacts or files stored on AMG
7
Property which AMG agrees are entirely personal in nature, AMG will work reasonably with you
to provide copies of, or otherwise transfer, such personal contacts or files to you.
(d)Further, you hereby resign, effective as of the Departure Date (or such earlier date
as AMG requests), (i) from any committees or boards on which you serve at AMG and (ii) as an
officer and/or member of the board of any Affiliates of AMG.  You agree in each case to execute
all further documents to affect your resignation from any such positions held.
5.Confidential Information
(a)Subject to Sections 5(c) and (d), you agree to maintain the strictest confidentiality
of the existence and terms of this Agreement and all communications and negotiations leading to
this Agreement, except that you may disclose such matters to your spouse, attorney, and
accountant, provided that you inform them that the terms of this Agreement are confidential.
(b)You hereby re-affirm any and all confidentiality obligations, including, without
limitation, those set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement, as well as those set forth in the
Award Agreements.  Specifically, and without limitation (other than as set forth in Sections 5(c)
and (d)), you shall at all times keep in confidence and trust all Confidential Information and shall
not reveal Confidential Information or otherwise use Confidential Information, except in
connection with your work for AMG.  “Confidential Information” means any and all information
concerning AMG and its Affiliates that is not generally known or available to the public (other
than as a result of your own disclosure), including, but not limited to, AMG’s or any Affiliates’
current or proposed businesses, technologies, business relationships, clients, personnel,
processes, operations, physical properties, strategies, plans, methods, investments, investment
recommendations, investment processes, investment methodologies, products, confidential
records, manuals, data, client and contact lists, trade secrets, or financial, corporate, sales,
marketing or personnel affairs, which AMG or such Affiliate has not released to the general
public, and all memoranda, notes, papers, items, tangible media, electronic files and
communications related thereto, as well as all other information relating to your employment
with AMG.
(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b), you
understand that you will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade
secret law for disclosing a trade secret of AMG that (i) is made (A) in confidence to a federal,
state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney and (B) solely
for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (ii) is made in a
complaint or other document filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding.  You understand
that if you file a lawsuit for retaliation by AMG for reporting a suspected violation of law, you
may disclose the trade secret to your attorney and use the trade secret under seal.  Nothing in this
Agreement, or any other agreement that you have with AMG, is intended to conflict with 18
U.S.C. § 1833(b) or create liability for disclosures of trade secrets that are expressly allowed by
such section.  Notwithstanding this immunity from liability, you may be held liable if you
unlawfully access trade secrets by unauthorized means.
8
(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, including the preceding paragraphs in
this Section 5, you understand that nothing in this Agreement or any other agreement between
AMG and you is intended to or shall prohibit or restrict you from (i) voluntarily communicating
with an attorney retained by you, (ii) voluntarily communicating with or otherwise cooperating
with any governmental or law enforcement agency or other authority in any investigation or
other governmental or regulatory process, or from providing Confidential Information or making
any other communications to any federal, state, or local regulatory authority or governmental
agency or self-regulatory organization, including, but not limited to, reporting pursuant to the
“whistleblower rules” promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (including the
Securities Exchange Act Rules 21F-1, et seq. or any other whistleblower provisions of any
federal, state, or local law or regulation) or otherwise communicating with the Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission, or any state or local commission on human rights, or
self-regulatory organization, in each case, regarding possible violations of law, (iii) disclosing
information subject to the attorney-client privilege only to the extent permitted by 17 CFR
205.3(d)(2), applicable state attorney conduct rules, or other applicable law, rule, or regulation,
(iv) recovering an award for providing information pursuant to the whistleblower provisions of
any applicable law or regulation to the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other
governmental entity, including as provided under Section 21F of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, (v) disclosing any Confidential Information to a court or other administrative or legislative
body in response to a subpoena, court order, or written request, provided that you first promptly
notify and provide AMG with the opportunity to seek, and join in its efforts at the sole expense
of AMG, to challenge the subpoena or obtain a protective order limiting its disclosure, or other
appropriate remedy, or (vi) filing or disclosing any facts necessary to receive unemployment
insurance, Medicaid or other public benefits to which you are entitled.  Other than with respect to
(v), you do not need to provide prior notice to or obtain the prior authorization of AMG to make
any such communications or disclosures nor are you required to notify AMG that you have made
such communications or disclosures.
6.Non-disparagement.  You hereby re-affirm any and all non-disparagement
obligations you owe to AMG, including, without limitation, those set forth in the Confidentiality
Agreement, as well as those set forth in the Award Agreements.  Subject to Sections 5(c) and (d),
you agree that you shall not make or induce anyone else to make any false, disparaging,
derogatory, damaging and/or critical statements to any person or entity, including, without
limitation, any media outlet (including, but not limited to, any internet-based chat rooms,
message boards, blogs and/or web pages), industry groups, financial institutions, current or
former employees, affiliates, consultants, clients or customers of AMG or its Affiliates regarding
AMG or its Affiliates or any of its or their partners, directors, officers, employees, agents or
representatives, or about AMG or its Affiliates’ business affairs, services, products, activities
and/or financial condition.  You further agree that, in addition to the foregoing and subject to the
terms of this Agreement, you shall not take any other action or induce anyone else to take any
action that could have a disparaging effect on the business interests, reputation, or goodwill of
AMG or its Affiliates or any of its or their officers, employees, directors, partners, clients,
affiliates, or business practices, it being understood that a determination of whether your actions
have had any such disparaging effect shall be at the sole discretion of AMG.
9
7.Non-competition and Non-solicitation
(a)Any and all existing non-competition and non-solicitation obligations, including,
without limitation, those set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement and the Award Agreements,
are incorporated by reference as if fully set forth anew herein; provided, however, that the non-
competition restriction set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement and in Section 7(a) of the
Award Agreements (or Section 5(a), in the case of the Stock Option Agreement) shall only apply
until close of business on January 31, 2027.  This provision in no way modifies or otherwise
affects the substance or duration of any other restrictive covenants set forth in the Award
Agreements or Confidentiality Agreement, including your client non-solicitation obligation and
employee non-solicitation obligation, which will remain unchanged and expire at close of
business on March 6, 2027 and March 6, 2028, respectively.  You acknowledge and agree that all
such obligations shall apply and remain in full force and effect and shall survive the execution,
delivery, and performance of this Agreement. 
(b)You shall notify the General Counsel of AMG prior to undertaking any
commitments, including, without limitation, business investments, board appointments and non-
profit service or political or governmental activities, which might potentially interfere with your
ability to fulfill your continuing obligations under Sections 4, 5, 6 or 7(a) of this Agreement or
which might reasonably be expected to have some effect on the public or investor relations
positioning of AMG or its Affiliates.
(c)You acknowledge and agree that any Certification and General Release of Claims
contains a certification of continuing compliance with preconditions to receipt of the Contractual
Payment. 
(d)You acknowledge and agree that you are not, through execution of a Certification
and General Release of Claims, agreeing to non-competition obligations, but are, instead,
truthfully and voluntarily certifying compliance with the terms and conditions expressly set forth
in this Agreement in order to receive the Contractual Payment.
8.Other Terms
(a)The performance by AMG of its commitment to provide all of the consideration
to you hereunder and your right to receive and retain the same shall be expressly conditioned on
your fulfillment of all of your obligations and conditions in this Agreement.
(b)Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute an admission of
wrongdoing by you, or by AMG or its Affiliates, or their respective directors,
shareholders, officers, members, managers, general and limited partners, or employees.  Neither
this Agreement nor any of its terms may be used as an admission or introduced as evidence as to
any issue of law or fact in any proceeding, suit or action, other than an action to enforce this
Agreement.
10
(c)This Agreement, including the Annexes attached hereto (along with the
Confidentiality Agreement and the Award Agreements), is the entire agreement between you and
AMG, and all other previous or contemporaneous agreements, promises, discussions,
understandings, representations or warranties between you and AMG, whether written or oral,
are superseded, null, and void.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary and for the avoidance
of doubt, as a former AMG executive officer, you shall remain subject at all times to the AMG
Clawback Policy, as mandatorily required under federal laws and regulations.
(d)In the event of any dispute, this Agreement shall be construed as a whole, shall be
interpreted in accordance with its fair meaning, and shall not be construed strictly for or against
either you or AMG.  The laws of the State of Connecticut shall govern any dispute about this
Agreement, including any interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement, without giving effect
to any conflict of law principles that would require the laws of any other jurisdiction to apply.  In
the event that any provision or portion of a provision of this Agreement is determined to be
unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall be enforced to the fullest extent possible as
if such provision or portion of a provision were not included.  Any action or proceeding arising
out of or related to this Agreement shall be brought solely in the state or federal courts of the
State of Connecticut, and the parties hereto irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of
said courts and waive the defense of forum non conveniens to the bringing of such action or
proceeding.  This Agreement may only be modified by a written agreement signed by both
parties hereto.
(e)AMG may freely assign this Agreement at any time to any successor in interest. 
This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of AMG and its successors and assigns.  You may not
assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, and any purported assignment by you shall be null
and void from the initial date of such purported assignment.
(f)This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, and each counterpart, when so
executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original and both counterparts, taken together,
shall constitute one and the same Agreement.  A faxed or .pdf-ed signature shall operate the
same as an original signature.
(g)The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement
comply with section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) to the extent subject
thereto or be exempt therefrom, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this
Agreement shall be interpreted and administered to be in compliance therewith.  Each amount to
be paid or benefit to be provided under this Agreement shall be construed as a separately
identified payment for purposes of section 409A of the Code, and any payments that are due
within the “short-term deferral period” as defined in section 409A of the Code shall not be
treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise.  To the extent
required to avoid the application of an accelerated or additional tax under section 409A of the
Code, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided
pursuant to this Agreement during the six-month period immediately following your termination
of employment shall instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six months
following your termination of employment (or upon your death, if earlier).  To the extent
11
required to avoid an accelerated or additional tax under section 409A of the Code, amounts
reimbursable to you under this Agreement shall be paid to you on or before the last day of the
year following the year in which the expense was incurred and the amount of expenses eligible
for reimbursement (and in-kind benefits provided to you) during any one year may not affect
amounts reimbursable or provided in any subsequent year.

Supplemental Release of Claims (the “Supplemental Release”) or the Agreement.
2.Knowing and Voluntary Agreement
(a)This Supplemental Release, including the general release of claims set

consult an attorney before signing and re-signing this Supplemental Release.  You

you are receiving benefits and payments to which you would not otherwise be entitled
unless you sign and re-sign this Supplemental Release, (ii) you have carefully read and

ANNEX C
FORM OF
CERTIFICATION AND GENERAL RELEASE OF CLAIMS
Certification
I, the undersigned, hereby certify that, as described in the separation letter agreement by
and between Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (“AMG”) and me, dated February 10, 2026 (the
“Agreement”), I am not (and have not since my Departure Date (as defined in the Agreement)),
without advance written approval from AMG (in its sole discretion), engaged in (and have not
engaged in) any Competitive Activity. 
I further certify that I have not since my Departure Date made or induced anyone else to
make any false, disparaging, derogatory, damaging and/or critical statements to any person or
entity, including without limitation, any media outlet (including, but not limited to, any internet-
based chat rooms, message boards, blogs and/or web pages), industry groups, financial
institutions, current or former employees, affiliates, consultants, clients or customers of AMG or
its subsidiaries or Affiliates regarding AMG or its subsidiaries or Affiliates or any of its or their
partners, directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives, or about AMG or its
subsidiaries and/or Affiliates’ business affairs, services, products, activities and/or financial
condition.  I further certify that, in addition to the foregoing and subject to the terms herein, I
have not taken any other action or induced anyone else to take any action that could have a
disparaging effect on the business interests, reputation, or goodwill of AMG or its subsidiaries or
Affiliates or any of its or their officers, employees, directors, partners, clients, affiliates, or
business practices.  I understand that a determination, in good faith, of whether my actions have
had any such disparaging effect shall be at the sole discretion of AMG, provided that AMG will
first provide me with prompt written notice via email and overnight delivery service to me at the
address listed in the Agreement or such other subsequent address as I may provide to AMG, and
a reasonable opportunity to be heard (and my opportunity to be represented by counsel if I so
choose) prior to making an adverse determination.
I further certify my ongoing compliance with my continuing obligations to AMG and its
subsidiaries and Affiliates, as set forth in the Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement (as
defined in the Agreement), as well as the Award Agreements (as defined in the Agreement),
including without limitation, my non-competition, non-solicitation, and confidentiality
obligations.
I further certify that I have notified the General Counsel of AMG prior to undertaking any
commitments, including, without limitation, business investments, board appointments and non-
profit service or political or governmental activities, which might potentially interfere with my
ability to make this Certification and General Release of Claims or which might reasonably be
2
expected to have some effect on the public or investor relations positioning of AMG or its
subsidiaries or Affiliates.
 
I acknowledge and agree that the terms and conditions set forth in this Certification and
General Release of Claims which govern my eligibility for the Contractual Payment were agreed
to and set forth in the Agreement, which was entered into in connection with a separation from
employment.  I acknowledge and agree that, through the Agreement, I agreed that providing this
Certification and General Release of Claims is a condition to receipt of the Contractual Payment. 
I acknowledge and agree that this Certification and General Release of Claims does not set forth
any new non-competition obligations and that, by executing this certification, I am not entering
into an agreement containing, or agreeing to be bound by, new non-competition obligations.
The above statements are true and correct to the best of my knowledge.  I understand that
a false statement will disqualify me for the Contractual Payment described in the Agreement, and
require my return of the Contractual Payment made in reliance on any such false statement (in
which case I shall be liable to AMG for any reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in securing any
such repayment).  I also understand that the payment to me of the Contractual Payment is further
subject to the good faith determination of AMG (in its sole discretion) that I have complied with
the foregoing obligations, provided that AMG will first provide me with prompt written notice
via email and overnight delivery service to me at the address listed in the Agreement or such
other subsequent address as I may provide to AMG, and a reasonable opportunity to be heard
(and my opportunity to be represented by counsel if I so choose) prior to making an adverse
determination.
General Release of Claims
FOR AND IN CONSIDERATION OF the Contractual Payment provided to me in
accordance with the Agreement, to which I am not otherwise entitled, I, on my own behalf and
on behalf of my heirs, executors, administrators, beneficiaries, personal representatives and
assigns, and all others connected with or claiming through me, release and forever discharge
AMG and its subsidiaries and Affiliates and all of their respective past, present and future
directors, shareholders, officers, members, managers, general and limited partners, employees,
employee benefit plans, administrators, trustees, agents, representatives, predecessors, successors
and assigns, and all others connected with any of them (the “Released Parties”), both
individually and in their official capacities, from any and all claims, whether known or unknown,
liquidated or unliquidated, that I now have or may ever have had against the Released Parties
arising from or related to any act, omission, or thing occurring or existing at any time on or prior
to the date that I execute this Certification and General Release of Claims; provided, however,
that notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this paragraph shall in any way diminish
or impair any claim for indemnification or contribution to which you may be entitled as a current
or former officer of AMG, whether by contract, insurance policy, or under applicable law or the
by-laws of AMG.  I acknowledge that my eligibility for the Contractual Payment described in the
Agreement is contingent on (i) my truthfully signing and returning this Certification and General
Release of Claims to AMG in a timely manner, (ii) my meeting in full all of my continuing
obligations to AMG and its subsidiaries and Affiliates, as set forth in the Agreement, including,
3
without limitation, with respect to my continuing non-competition, non-solicitation, non-
disparagement, and confidentiality obligations, and (iii) the good faith determination of AMG (in
its sole discretion) that I have complied with the foregoing obligations, provided that AMG will
first provide me with prompt written notice via email and overnight delivery service to me at the
address listed in the Agreement or such other subsequent address as I may provide to AMG, and
a reasonable opportunity to be heard (and my opportunity to be represented by counsel if I so
choose) prior to making an adverse determination.
