Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Certain financial information and accompanying note disclosure normally included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K have been condensed or omitted. The interim financial information is unaudited but reflects all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2026, the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. These interim Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
There have been no significant changes in significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the significant accounting policies described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Variable Interest Entities
The Company or its affiliates have created numerous investment products for its clients in various types of legal entity structures. For entities determined to be a variable interest entity (VIE) in which the Company has a variable interest, an evaluation is required to determine whether the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company evaluates its economic interests in the entity specifically determining if the Company has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. When making the determination on whether the benefits received from an entity are significant, the Company considers the total economics of the entity, and analyzes whether the Company’s share of the economics is significant. The Company utilizes qualitative factors, and, where applicable, quantitative factors, while performing the analysis. At each balance sheet date, the Company determines whether any
10
reconsideration events, such as capital contributions and redemptions, either by the Company or third parties, have occurred that require it to revisit the VIE analysis and will consolidate or deconsolidate accordingly.
Consolidated Variable Interest Entities
VIEs which the Company controls as the primary beneficiary have been included in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. The results of the consolidated VIEs are reported on a one-month lag due to the timing of the receipt of related financial statements. To the extent the Company is aware of material events that affect the consolidated VIEs during the intervening period, the impact of the events would be disclosed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company's consolidated net income on the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations includes the income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests. The portion of the consolidated VIEs owned by other investors is included in Redeemable Non-controlling Interests on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet. Activity related to other investors of the consolidated VIEs is eliminated through Net income attributable to non-controlling interests on the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Investments held by consolidated VIEs are recorded at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses from the investments are recognized in Net gain from consolidated variable interest entities on the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The Company deconsolidates all the assets and liabilities of the non-controlling interests from the Consolidated Balance Sheets once it no longer qualifies as the primary beneficiary of a consolidated VIE. See Note 15 for related disclosures regarding the Company's consolidated VIEs.
Redeemable Non-controlling Interests
Non-controlling interests that are redeemable outside the Company's control at fixed or determinable prices and dates are presented as temporary equity in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Redeemable non-controlling interests are recorded at the greater of the redemption fair value or the carrying value of the non-controlling interest and adjusted each reporting period for income, loss and any distributions made. Remeasurements to the redemption value of the redeemable non-controlling interest are recognized in capital in excess of par value. As of December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2026, the Company has a redeemable non-controlling interest related to an acquisition (See Note 12).
The Company also includes redeemable non-controlling interests related to consolidated VIEs as temporary equity on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Non-controlling interests in consolidated VIEs are subject to redemption by future investors. When redeemable amounts become legally payable to the investors, they are classified as a liability and included in Liabilities of consolidated variable interest entities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Changes in the Company's redeemable non-controlling interests are as follows:
| Redeemable Non-controlling Interests | ||||||||
Balance, December 31, 2025 | $ | 243,959 | ||||||
| Increase from acquisition | 10,400 | |||||||
| Net income attributable to non-controlling interests | 5,087 | |||||||
| Capital contributions from non-controlling interests, net | 889 | |||||||
| Redemption value remeasurement | 50,692 | |||||||
Balance, June 30, 2026 | $ | 311,027 | ||||||
Non-consolidated Variable Interest Entities
The Company serves as the Manager, Administrator and Distributor for certain investment products and may also serve as the Trustee for some of the investment products. The Company receives asset management, distribution, administration and custodial fees for these services. Clients are the equity investors and participate in proportion to their ownership percentage in the net income or loss and net capital gains or losses of the products, and, on liquidation, will participate in proportion to their ownership percentage in the remaining net assets of the products after satisfaction of outstanding liabilities. The Company has concluded that it is not the primary beneficiary of the entities in which it serves as the Manager, Administrator, Distributor or Trustee and, therefore, is not required to consolidate any of the pooled investment vehicles for which it receives asset management, distribution, administration and custodial fees under the VIE model.
The Company is a party to expense limitation agreements with certain SEI-sponsored money market funds subject to Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 which establish a maximum level of ordinary operating expenses incurred by the fund in any fiscal year including, but not limited to, fees of the administrator or its affiliates. Under the terms of these
11
agreements, the Company waived $4,776 and $5,262 in fees during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company waived $9,853 and $9,395, respectively, in fees.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized when the transfer of control of promised goods or services under the terms of a contract with customers are satisfied in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those promised goods or services. Certain portions of the Company’s revenues involve a third party in providing goods or services to its customers. In such circumstances, the Company must determine whether the nature of its promise to the customer is to provide the underlying goods or services (the Company is the principal in the transaction and reports the transaction gross) or to arrange for a third party to provide the underlying goods or services (the entity is the agent in the transaction and reports the transaction net). See Note 14 for related disclosures regarding revenue recognition.
Capitalized Software
The Company capitalized $11,132 and $14,466 of software development costs during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, to further develop the SEI Wealth PlatformSM (SWP) and for the development of a new platform for the Investment Managers segment. The Company capitalized $7,456 and $8,851 of software development costs for significant enhancements to SWP during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. As of June 30, 2026, the net book value of SWP was $186,530, which includes $2,232 of capitalized software development costs in-progress associated with future releases. SWP has a weighted average remaining life of 7.3 years. Amortization expense for SWP was $15,173 and $14,297 during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
The Company also capitalized $3,676 and $5,615 of software development costs during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, related to the development of a new platform for the Investment Managers segment. The Company placed the platform into service during the third quarter 2025. The net book value of the platform at June 30, 2026 was $40,685, which includes $3,676 of capitalized software development costs in-progress associated with future releases. As of June 30, 2026, the platform has a weighted average useful life of 6.1 years. Amortization expense for the platform was $3,016 during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
Earnings per Share
The calculations of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 are:
| Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2026 | 2025 | 2026 | 2025 | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Net income | $ | 199,540 | $ | 227,083 | $ | 376,327 | $ | 378,600 | |||||||||||||||

| Diluted earnings per common share | $ | 1.59 | $ | 1.78 | $ | 2.99 | $ | 2.95 | |||||||||||||||
During the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, employee stock options to purchase 4,395,000 and 5,713,000 shares of common stock with an average exercise price of $75.28 and $66.08, respectively, were outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, employee stock options to purchase 4,411,000 and 5,773,000 shares of common stock with an average exercise price of $75.28 and $66.01, respectively, were outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share. These options for the three and six month periods were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share because either the performance conditions have not been satisfied or would not have been satisfied if the reporting date was the end of the contingency period or the options' exercise price was greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock and the effect on diluted earnings per common share would have been anti-dilutive.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (ASU 2024-03) and in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense
12
Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date (ASU 2025-01), which clarified the effective date of ASU 2024-03. This standard requires new disclosures to disaggregate prescribed natural expenses underlying any income statement caption. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 on a prospective basis and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
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 (ASU 2025-03). This standard eliminates the presumption that the primary beneficiary of a VIE is the accounting acquirer in a business combination. Instead, entities are required to apply the general guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 805 to determine the accounting acquirer when the transaction is primarily effected by the exchange of equity interests. ASU 2025-03 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2026 on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
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 (ASU 2025-06). This standard clarifies capitalization thresholds for software development costs and aligns accounting treatment more closely with the economic substance of modern software development activities. ASU 2025-06 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027 on a retrospective, prospective or modified prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2025-06 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements (ASU 2025-11). ASU 2025-11 is intended to improve the clarity and navigability of interim reporting guidance by (i) specifying the required form and content of interim financial statements, (ii) consolidating and organizing interim disclosure requirements across the Codification, and (iii) introducing a disclosure principle requiring entities to describe events occurring after the end of the most recent annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. ASU 2025-11 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2025-11 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.
Note 2 – Equity Method Investments
The Company's equity method investments included in Investments on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets consist of:
| June 30, 2026 | December 31, 2025 | |||||||||||||
| Investment in LSV Asset Management | $ | 59,890 | $ | 121,512 | ||||||||||
| Other equity method investments | 34,420 | 67,637 | ||||||||||||
| Total | $ | 94,310 | $ | 189,149 | ||||||||||
LSV Asset Management
The Company has an investment in LSV Asset Management (LSV), a registered investment advisor that provides investment advisory services primarily to institutions, including pension plans and investment companies. LSV is currently an investment sub-advisor for a limited number of SEI-sponsored investment products. The Company's partnership interest in LSV as of June 30, 2026 was 38.4%. The Company’s interest in the net assets of LSV is included in Investments on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and its interest in the earnings of LSV is reflected in Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliate on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company accounts for its interest in LSV using the equity method because of its less than 50% ownership. The Company’s interest in the earnings of LSV is reflected in Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s total investment in LSV was $59,890 and $121,512, respectively. The Company's investment includes advances provided to LSV related to their working capital accounts. The Company receives partnership distributions from LSV on a quarterly basis. The Company received partnership distributions from LSV of $70,641 and $67,130 in the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. As such,
13
the Company considers these distribution payments as returns on investment rather than returns of the Company's original investment in LSV and has therefore classified the associated cash inflows as an operating activity on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
The Company’s proportionate share in the earnings of LSV was $38,264 and $33,640 during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company’s proportionate share in the earnings of LSV was $70,356 and $62,387, respectively.
This table contains condensed financial information of LSV:
| Condensed Statement of Operations | Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2026 | 2025 | 2026 | 2025 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

| Net income | 99,502 | 87,311 | 182,799 | 161,825 | ||||||||||||||||||||||
On April 1, 2026, LSV provided an interest in the partnership to select key employees which reduced the ownership percentage of each existing partner on a pro-rata basis. As a result, the Company's total partnership interest in LSV was reduced slightly to approximately 38.4% from approximately 38.5%.
Other Equity Method Investments
The Company's other equity method investments consist of several firms acquired in December 2025 and during the first quarter 2026 in connection with the Stratos Acquisition (See Note 12) and an investment in a non-affiliated limited partnership fund in which the Company holds a more than minor interest. At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the value of the equity method entities related to Stratos was $24,197 and $57,153, respectively. At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the value of the Company's investment in the limited partnership fund was $10,223 and $10,484, respectively.

Note 4 – Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities is determined in accordance with the fair value hierarchy. The pricing policies and procedures applied to the Company's Level 1 and Level 2 financial assets during the six months ended June 30, 2026 were consistent with those as described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K at December 31, 2025. Level 1 financial assets and liabilities of the Company and consolidated VIEs consist mainly of equity securities and investments in open-end and closed-end investment products that are quoted daily. Level 2 financial assets primarily consist of Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA) mortgage-backed securities held by the Company's wholly-owned limited purpose federal thrift subsidiary, SEI Private Trust Company (SPTC), and Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) and other U.S. government agency short-term notes held by SIDCO. The financial assets held by SIDCO were purchased as part of a cash management program requiring only short term, top-tier investment grade government and corporate securities. The financial assets held by SPTC are debt securities issued by GNMA and are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. These securities were purchased for the sole purpose of satisfying applicable regulatory requirements and have maturity dates which range from 2027 to 2041. The Company's Level 3 financial liabilities at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 consist entirely of the estimated fair value of the
15
contingent considerations resulting from business acquisitions. There were no transfers of financial assets between levels within the fair value hierarchy during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
The fair value of the Company's investments in funds sponsored by LSV are measured using the net asset value per share (NAV) as a practical expedient. The NAVs of the funds are calculated by the funds' independent custodian and are derived from the fair values of the underlying investments as of the reporting date. The investment funds sponsored by LSV allow for investor redemptions at the end of each calendar month. The investments measured using the NAV as a practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy but are presented in the tables below to permit reconciliation to the amounts presented on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The fair value of certain financial assets and liabilities of the Company was determined using the following inputs:

The unrealized losses are associated with the Company’s investments in mortgage-backed securities issued by GNMA and were caused by interest rate increases (See Note 4). The contractual cash flows of these securities are guaranteed by an agency of the U.S. government. Accordingly, it is expected that the securities would not be settled at a price less than the amortized cost bases of the Company's investments. The Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not likely that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases.
The unrealized losses, net of unrealized gains, associated with the Company's available-for-sale debt securities are reported as a separate component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 6 – Line of Credit
On August 18, 2025 (the Closing Date), the Company entered into a five-year $500,000 Credit Agreement (the Facility) with U.S. Bank National Association, and a syndicate of other lenders. The Facility is scheduled to expire in August 2030, at which time any aggregate principal amount of loans outstanding becomes payable in full. The aggregate principal amount of the Facility may be increased by an additional $250,000 under certain conditions set forth in the agreement. The Facility replaces the Company’s $325,000 five-year credit facility that was scheduled to expire in April 2026. Interest on borrowings under the Facility is payable at rates that, at the Company's option, are based on a base rate (the Base Rate) plus a premium that can range from 0.25% to 1.25% or the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (Term SOFR) plus a premium that can range from 1.25% to 2.25% depending on the Company’s Leverage Ratio (a ratio of consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA for the four preceding fiscal quarters, all as defined in the relevant agreement). The Base Rate is defined as the highest of a) the Prime Rate, b) the Federal Funds Rate (each as defined in the relevant agreement) plus 0.50%, or c) Term SOFR for a one-month tenor in effect on such day plus 1.00%. The Company also pays quarterly commitment fees based on the unused portion of the Facility. The quarterly fees for the Facility can range from 0.15% of the amount of the unused portion of the Facility to 0.35%, depending on the Company’s Leverage Ratio. Certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company have guaranteed the obligations of the Company under the Facility.
The Company may issue up to $25,000 in letters of credit under the terms of the Facility. The Company pays a periodic commission fee based on the applicable rate with respect to borrowings that are designated as SOFR Loans (as defined in the relevant agreement) plus an issuance fee agreed upon between the Company and the lender.
The Facility contains covenants that, among other things, restrict the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to engage in mergers, consolidations, asset sales, acquisitions, transactions with affiliates, or to incur indebtedness or liens, subject in certain cases to certain exceptions and thresholds, as defined in the related agreement. In the event of a default under the Facility, the Company would also be restricted from paying dividends on, or repurchasing, its capital stock without the approval of the lenders. Upon the occurrence of certain financial or economic events, significant corporate events or certain other events of default constituting an event of default under the Facility, all loans outstanding under the Facility may be declared immediately due and payable and all commitments under the Facility may be terminated.
The Company was in compliance with all covenants of the credit facilities during the six months ended June 30, 2026. As of July 10, 2026, the Company had outstanding letters of credit of $4,630 under the Facility. The amount of the Facility that is available for general corporate purposes as of July 10, 2026 was $495,370.

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had approximately $382,748 of authorization remaining for the purchase of common stock under the program.
The Company immediately retires its common stock when purchased.

If the Company reduces its Retained earnings to zero, any subsequent purchases of common stock will be charged entirely to Capital in excess of par value.
Cash Dividend
On May 27, 2026, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.52 per share on the Company's common stock, which was paid on June 16, 2026, to shareholders of record on June 8, 2026.

Note 10 – Income Taxes
The gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was $14,815 and $13,613, respectively, exclusive of interest and penalties, of which $15,045 and $13,577 would affect the effective tax rate if the Company were to recognize the tax benefit.
The Company classifies interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the combined amount of accrued interest and penalties related to tax positions taken on tax returns was $2,136 and $1,685, respectively.

The effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 differs from the federal income tax statutory rate due to the following:
| Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2026 | 2025 | 2026 | 2025 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

| 21.2 | % | 22.3 | % | 22.3 | % | 22.5 | % | |||||||||||||||||||
The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to higher excess tax benefits recognized on employee stock option exercises and the favorable impact from the recognition of federal energy tax credits purchased during the period, both of which reduced the Company's income tax expense.
The Company files income tax returns in the United States on a consolidated basis and in many U.S. state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is subject to examination of income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and other domestic and foreign tax authorities. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examination for years before 2022 and is no longer subject to state, local or foreign income tax examinations by authorities for years before 2018.
The Company estimates it will recognize $4,057 of gross unrecognized tax benefits which is expected to be paid within one year or to be removed at the expiration of the statute of limitations and resolution of income tax audits and is netted against the current payable account. These unrecognized tax benefits are related to tax positions taken on certain federal,
24
state, and foreign tax returns. However, the timing of the resolution of income tax examinations is highly uncertain, and the amounts ultimately paid, if any, upon resolution of the issues raised by the taxing authorities may differ materially from the amounts accrued for each year. While it is reasonably possible that some issues under examination could be resolved in the next twelve months, based upon the current facts and circumstances, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the timing of such resolution or the total range of potential changes as it relates to the current unrecognized tax benefits that are recorded as part of the Company’s financial statements.
Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, the Company from time to time enters into contracts containing indemnification obligations of the Company. These obligations may require the Company to make payments to another party upon the occurrence of certain events including the failure by the Company to meet its performance obligations under the contract. These contractual indemnification provisions are often standard contractual terms of the nature customarily found in the type of contracts entered into by the Company. In many cases, there are no stated or notional amounts included in the indemnification provisions. There are no amounts reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 related to these indemnifications.
Rubicon Wealth Management
As the Company reported in prior filings with the Commission, on May 1, 2024, SEI Private Trust Company (SPTC), a wholly-owned, operating subsidiary of SEI, terminated its client relationship with Rubicon Wealth Management LLC, an SPTC investment advisor client (Rubicon). SPTC terminated the Rubicon relationship due to suspicions of fraudulent activity by Rubicon’s founder, Scott Mason. Mr. Mason and Rubicon were investigated by the U.S. Department of Justice and Securities and Exchange Commission and Mr. Mason pled guilty to several crimes and consented to a judgment being entered against him in both proceedings. On June 25, 2025, Mr. Mason was sentenced to 97 months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release. Mason was also ordered to pay nearly $25,000 in restitution to his victims and more than $2,300 in back taxes to the Internal Revenue Service.
The previously disclosed lawsuits filed against SPTC in its capacity as custodian for the Rubicon accounts of the plaintiffs (collectively, the Rubicon Actions) remain pending in the Court of Common Pleas of Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, and are now in the discovery phase. While the ultimate outcomes of these litigations remain uncertain, SPTC is vigorously defending each of the Rubicon Actions. Currently, SPTC estimates that the aggregate amount of Rubicon client assets transferred at the direction of Mr. Mason from SPTC custodial accounts to accounts of an entity, Orchard Park, that unbeknownst to the investors or SPTC was established and controlled by Mr. Mason and was used by Mr. Mason for personal expenditures is approximately $15,000. In the event that SPTC is unsuccessful in its defense of the Rubicon Actions, SEI does not currently believe that the losses associated with such unsuccessful defense would exceed the approximately $15,000 of Rubicon client assets that Mr. Mason directed to be transferred to Orchard Park.
LSV Asset Management
As the Company reported in prior filings with the Commission, on January 27, 2026, the Company, and its wholly owned subsidiary, SEI Funds, Inc., (the SEI Parties) were joined as defendants in Qu v. LSV Asset Management, an Illinois State Court action originally filed in July 2024 in Cook County, Illinois Circuit Court (the Qu Litigation). The Qu Litigation alleged that LSV Asset Management (LSV), and certain of its executives (the LSV Defendants), breached fiduciary duties and implied covenants of good faith with respect to LSV’s purchase of LSV partnership interest indirectly held by the plaintiff. The claim against the SEI Parties alleged that the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary SEI Funds, Inc., that is the owner of a minority interest of LSV, aided and abetted the LSV Defendant’s alleged breach of fiduciary duty.
On April 27, 2026, the parties settled the matter on mutually agreeable terms in a confidential settlement without admitting any fault or liability and such settlement agreement released all claims alleged against the SEI Parties. None of the SEI Parties made or will make any payments in connection with the settlement. On April 30, 2026, the Court dismissed the case with prejudice.
SEI Capital Accumulation Plan
As the Company reported in prior filings with the Commission, on December 26, 2025, a class action complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania by David Hall and Jennifer Knapp, individually and as representatives of similarly situated persons, and on behalf of the SEI Capital Accumulation Plan (the Plan), naming the Company and its affiliated and/or related entities SEI Investments Management Corporation, SEI Capital Accumulation Plan Administration Committee, and John Does 1-30 as defendants (the Hall Complaint). The Hall Complaint seeks damages for defendants’ alleged breach of fiduciary duties under ERISA with respect to selecting and monitoring certain of the Plan’s investment options, which are affiliated investment products.
25
While the outcome of this litigation remains uncertain, defendants believe that they have valid defenses to plaintiffs’ claims and intend to defend the allegations contained in the Hall Complaint vigorously. At this stage of the litigation, the Company is not reasonably able to provide an estimate of loss, if any, with respect to the matters set forth in the Hall Complaint.
United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority Supervisory Review of SEI Investments (Europe) Limited
As previously reported, on July 31, 2024, SEI Investments (Europe) Limited (SIEL), an indirectly, wholly-owned operating subsidiary of SEI, received a final requirement notice from the Financial Conduct Authority of the United Kingdom (the FCA) under section 166(3)(a) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (FSMA), requiring SIEL to engage a “Skilled Person” to undertake a two-stage review of SIEL’s governance arrangements and control environment.
The VREQ currently imposed on SIEL is reflected in full on the FCA Register.
SIEL is fully committed to addressing the concerns raised by the FCA. The Company believes the actions SIEL has taken to remediate the issues identified in the Skilled Person Report have not only strengthened its business but will also help maintain its focus on achieving positive customer outcomes, positioning SIEL for sustainable future growth.
The Skilled Person has now concluded the second stage of its engagement, which involved reviewing the remediation actions taken by SIEL to date and SIEL’s plan for continued improvement. The final Stage 2 report was issued by the Skilled Person on July 14, 2026 and has been reviewed by both the FCA and SIEL. SIEL is now working to ensuring that all actions are fully embedded and will look to engage with the FCA in connection with concluding the s.166 and potential lifting of the VREQ in due course.
It should be noted that the VREQ will stay in effect unless and until varied or cancelled by the FCA (either on the application of SIEL or of the FCA’s own volition), until the FCA is satisfied that SIEL has demonstrated that it has addressed the concerns the FCA has communicated to it.
Equilus Capital
On April 1, 2026 the Washington Department of Financial Institutions (DFI) filed a lawsuit in Washington Superior Court (the Complaint) seeking a temporary restraining order, injunctive relief, and the appointment of a receiver against Equilus Group, Inc. (Equilus Group), Equilus Capital Partners, LLC (Equilus Capital, and together with Equilus Group, the Equilus Companies), Joel Frank (a managing member of the Equilus Companies), certain entities controlled by Joel Frank and/or the Equilus Companies (the Equilus Funds), and certain other named individual defendants (the Equilus Parties). Equilus Group is a Washington State registered investment adviser that is a client of the Company's Investment Advisors segment. The DFI alleges that Joel Frank, the Equilus Companies, and the Equilus Funds engaged in Ponzi scheme-like activity and/or other wrongful conduct, selling approximately $39,000 in unregistered securities and alleging theft from individual investors who purchased such securities of at least approximately $800. On April 10, 2026, DFI suspended Equilus Group’s Washington state investment adviser registration, with intent to revoke.
The Complaint names SPTC, along with several other financial institutions, as financial institution defendants. SPTC maintains investment accounts for certain Equilus Parties and Equilus Group investors. On April 23, 2026, the Court granted DFI’s motion for a preliminary injunction, which SPTC did not oppose, prohibiting SPTC from permitting or assisting the withdrawal, transfer, or any other disposition of funds held in the accounts in the name of Equilus Capital Partners, LLC or ECP Opportunities Fund I, until a receiver is appointed to take control of such assets. The Receiver was appointed on April 23, 2026, and SPTC is cooperating with the Receiver’s efforts.
No claims have been made against SPTC and the Company is not aware of any allegations of wrongdoing by the Company or SPTC. On June 12, 2026, the Court approved a “Stipulation of Non-Participation” between DFI and SPTC. Pursuant to the Stipulation, DFI and SPTC agreed that SPTC was named in the lawsuit solely in its capacity as a financial institution with accounts in the name of Equilus Capital and ECP Opportunities Fund I, LP (the “Designated Co-Defendants’ Accounts”), and therefore SPTC shall not be required to participate in the litigation proceedings in any manner, except to comply with any orders or judgments related to the Designated Co-Defendants’ Accounts, to cooperate with the Receiver, and to respond to reasonable discovery requests. As a result, the Company does not anticipate losses associated with this Complaint.
Other Matters
The Company and certain of its subsidiaries are party to various other examinations, investigations, actions and claims arising in the normal course of business that the Company does not believe are material. The Company believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or the manner in which the Company conducts its business. Currently, the Company does not believe the amount of losses associated with these matters can be estimated. While the Company does not believe that the amount of such losses will, when liquidated or estimable, be material to its financial position, the assumptions may be incorrect and any such loss could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations or the manner in which the Company conducts its business in the period(s) during which the underlying matters are resolved.

Unfunded Commitments to Limited Partnership Funds
The Company has unfunded commitments of $10,380 at July 10, 2026 to limited partnership funds.
Unused Letters of Credit
As of June 30, 2026, the Company had outstanding and unused letters of credit of $4,630 under its Credit Facility (See Note 6). The letters of credit were issued for certain municipal requirements related to the expansion of the Company's corporate headquarters and are due to expire in 2026. The Company does not expect that any material amounts will be drawn under these letters of credit. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Note 12 – Business Acquisitions and Divestitures
Stratos Wealth Holdings
On July 17, 2025, SEI-Eclipse Holding Company, LLC (SEI-Eclipse), a newly-formed, wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Company, and the Company entered into a definitive agreement (as amended, the Acquisition Agreement) with Stratos Wealth Holdings, LLC (Stratos) and Stratos Intermediate Holdco I, LLC (Stratos US Holdings) to acquire a controlling interest in the businesses operated by Stratos. Stratos is a holding company that directly and indirectly holds 100.0% of the equity of certain subsidiary holding companies (including Stratos US Holdings), which, in turn, own equity interests in multiple operating companies that form a network of over 350 affiliated financial advisors in the U.S. and Mexico. The transaction was designed to be completed by SEI-Eclipse in two stages. The first stage is the acquisition of all of the outstanding equity of Stratos US Holdings, which directly owns equity interests in the U.S.-based Stratos operating entities. The second stage is an option to acquire all of the outstanding equity of the Stratos subsidiary holding company (Stratos NSC Holdings) that directly owns a controlling interest in NSC Asesores, S.C., the Mexico-based operating entity (NSC Asesores). The due diligence process regarding Stratos NSC Holdings and NSC Asesores is still ongoing.
On December 3, 2025 (the Closing Date), SEI-Eclipse closed the first stage of the transaction by acquiring all of the outstanding equity of Stratos US Holdings. The acquisition consideration was comprised of cash of $323,102, funded by a cash contribution by the Company to SEI-Eclipse, and the issuance of 42.5% of the common units of SEI-Eclipse with an estimated fair value of $235,145 (the Stratos Acquisition). As a result, the Company indirectly owns a 57.5% controlling interest in SEI-Eclipse and certain Stratos equity holders own the remaining 42.5% of SEI-Eclipse through an aggregator entity (Stratos Aggregator). This 42.5% minority interest of SEI-Eclipse held by Stratos Aggregator is subject to three equal put/call options by SEI-Eclipse or Stratos Aggregator exercisable at 36 months, 54 months and 72 months after the Closing Date, and is presented as redeemable non-controlling interest on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. If the puts or calls are fully exercised, it will result in the Company indirectly owning 100.0% of the outstanding equity of SEI-Eclipse.
The Company accounted for the Stratos Acquisition as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. The purchase price has been preliminarily allocated to the tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based upon their estimated fair values, with the exception of the following: (1) deferred income tax assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recognized and measured in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes; (2) contract assets and liabilities are measured and recognized in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers; and (3) certain lease related assets and liabilities which are measured and recognized in accordance with ASC 842, Leases. In addition, the redeemable non-controlling interest was recorded at fair value under ASC 805.
As part of the Stratos Acquisition, the Company, via its 57.5% indirect interest in SEI-Eclipse, acquired a portfolio of minority equity investments which were accounted for under ASC 323, Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures as of the Closing Date due to the Company having significant influence. These investments were determined to have an acquisition date fair value of $56,974. For certain equity method investments, the Company, via its 57.5% indirect interest in SEI-Eclipse, also acquired rights to obtain a controlling interest in the investees. These contractual rights were previously negotiated between Stratos Wealth Enterprises, LLC, one of the U.S.-based Stratos operating entities (SWE), and the equity method investee controlling interest holders and were contingently exercisable upon a change of control of Stratos. The purchase price under the contractual rights is based on a proscribed formula tied to historical profitability of the applicable equity method investee. The Company determined that the fair value of these rights was de minimis on the Closing Date.
The Company has not finalized its accounting for any areas of the purchase price allocation related to the Stratos business. The Company anticipates it will finalize its accounting for the Stratos Acquisition during the fourth quarter of
27
2026. The Company will make adjustments to the purchase price allocation prior to completion of the measurement period, as required.
Given the Company’s intent to cause SWE to exercise its contractual rights to acquire controlling interests in the equity method investees and to close on the purchases contemplated after the Closing Date, the Company deposited $118,606 in escrow on the Closing Date.
The Acquisition Agreement also provides for SEI-Eclipse to acquire the outstanding equity of Stratos NSC Holdings held by Stratos US Holdings for approximately $103,000. The future closing of the acquisition of Stratos NSC Holdings, if any, is subject to applicable regulatory approval and other closing conditions, including, without limitation, the Company receiving satisfactory results of its due diligence of Stratos NSC Holdings and NSC Asesores.
The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information reflects the results of operations of the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 as if the Stratos Acquisition had occurred as of January 1, 2025, after giving effect to certain purchase accounting adjustments. These amounts are based on financial information of the Stratos business and are not necessarily indicative of what the Company’s operating results would have been had the Stratos Acquisition taken place on January 1, 2025:

| Net income attributable to SEI Investments Company | 370,517 | 369,758 | ||||||||||||
The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information includes certain nonrecurring adjustments directly attributable to the Stratos Acquisition. These adjustments primarily relate to transaction‑related costs and were immaterial.
Acquisition of Equity Method Investments (EMI Entities)
SWE used cash funded from the deposit account to purchase 100% interest of nine entities and a majority interest in two additional entities (collectively, “the EMI Entities”) through the exercise of its contractual rights noted above. The closing date on the additional interest acquired occurred at various dates during the first quarter of 2026. The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated purchase consideration for the EMI Entities as of the various closing dates during the first quarter of 2026:
| Estimated Consideration | |||||
| Cash in deposit account | $ | 60,433 | |||
| Promissory notes to sellers | 30,707 | ||||
| Fair value of previously held equity method investments | 39,770 | ||||
| Contingent consideration | (450) | ||||
| Total purchase consideration | $ | 130,460 | |||
The promissory notes have interest rates ranging from 3.67% to 4.67% and are payable in 12 to 16 quarterly installments ranging between April 30, 2026 and April 30, 2030. The expected cash payments under the promissory notes are fully funded as part of the deposit account described above.
Each EMI entity acquired is subject to a lookback provision (Revenue Clawback) which provides for the seller to reimburse the buyer should the trailing twelve month gross revenue calculated eighteen months following the respective closing dates falls below 95% of Target Gross Revenue (as defined in the respective agreements). Any contingent consideration owed will be settled through a reduction of the respective promissory note. If the amount of the adjustment is greater than the amount owed under the respective promissory note, a payment is owed from the respective seller. These Revenue Clawbacks are contingent consideration which values will be adjusted to fair value each subsequent reporting period.
28
The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and non-controlling interest for the EMI Entities as of the various closing dates:
| Estimated Fair Value | |||||
| Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 1,595 | |||
| Other current assets | 23 | ||||
| Property and equipment, net | 16 | ||||
| Operating lease right-of-use asset | 654 | ||||
| Goodwill, net | 33,665 | ||||
| Identifiable intangible assets | 120,936 | ||||
| Lease liabilities | (654) | ||||
| Other liabilities | (1,378) | ||||
| Total net assets acquired | $ | 154,857 | |||
| Non-controlling interest | (24,397) | ||||
| $ | 130,460 | ||||
The excess of the purchase price and the fair value of the non-controlling interest over the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill. The Company has assigned the provisional goodwill to its Investment Advisors reportable segment. The resulting goodwill is primarily due to the perceived growth potential of the acquired business, plus the fair value of the assembled workforce. Any goodwill generated for income tax purposes from the acquisition is fully deductible.
The results of operations for the acquired EMI Entities are included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company from the date of the acquisition.
The Company has identified the following significant intangible assets acquired: trade names, unpatented technology, client relationships, and non-compete agreements. The following table summarizes the preliminary fair value of the significant identifiable intangible assets:
Estimated Fair Value | Estimated Useful Life | ||||||||||
Trade names | $ | 1,254 | 3 years | ||||||||
Unpatented technology | 758 | 1 year | |||||||||
Client relationships | 115,782 | 18 years | |||||||||
Non-compete agreements | 3,142 | 6 years | |||||||||
Total identifiable intangible assets | $ | 120,936 | |||||||||
The provisional fair values of identifiable intangible assets were determined by using certain estimates and assumptions that are not observable in the market. Determining the useful life of an intangible asset also requires judgment, as different types of intangible assets will have different useful lives.
The fair value of the identified intangible assets and the non-controlling interests were determined using the same methodology and key assumptions as those disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2025.
December 31, 2025.
The acquisition of certain EMI Entities triggered a provision in the Stratos Acquisition agreement whereby the Company has a contractual right to receive additional amounts from the Stratos sellers based on the future performance of the acquired EMI Entities. The Company is entitled to an amount from the SEI-Eclipse non-controlling interest holders should there be an EBITDA shortfall at any of the EMI Entities. The amount of a shortfall is calculated on an entity-by-entity basis based on a stated multiple and the difference between the eighteen-month prior quarter annualized EBITDA less the closing date EBITDA. The amount payable under this EBITDA clawback is reduced by the amount of the promissory note forgiveness under the revenue based contingent consideration arrangement described above. The amount payable by the SEI-Eclipse non-controlling interest holders can be funded, at the election of the SEI-Eclipse non-controlling interest holder, through i) cash payment to the Company or ii) issuance of preferred units of SEI-Eclipse to the Company.

Note 15 – Consolidated Variable Interest Entities
On July 31, 2025, the Company made a seed capital investment of $50,000 through a subscription agreement with the LSV Global Equity Market Neutral Fund, LP (LSV GEMNF), a limited partnership fund that was operationalized on July 1, 2025. LSV serves as the general partner and investment manager to the LSV GEMNF and makes all operational and investment decisions on behalf of the fund. LSV does not have a partnership interest in the LSV GEMNF.
The Company determined the LSV GEMNF to be a variable interest entity (VIE) in which it has a variable interest through its direct equity partnership interest and also determined LSV does not have a variable interest through its management fee as general partner to the fund. The Company concluded that it is the primary beneficiary as substantially all of the activities of the fund are currently conducted on behalf of the Company while the fund is in the seed capital stage and is therefore required to consolidate the accounts of the LSV GEMNF into its financial statements.
The Company recognized unrealized gains of $6,885 during the six months ended June 30, 2026 from the change in fair value of the seed capital investment in the LSV GEMNF. These gains are included in Net gain from consolidated variable interest entities on the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The assets and liabilities of the LSV GEMNF presented on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets consist of:

The following items had a significant impact on our financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025:
•Revenue from Assets under management, administration, and distribution fees increased in the first six months of 2026 primarily from higher assets under administration due to cross sales to existing alternative investment clients of the Investment Managers segment as well as new sales within the segment. Average assets under administration increased $212.7 billion, or 19%, to $1.3 trillion during the first six months of 2026, as compared to $1.1 trillion during the first six months of 2025.
•Revenue from Assets under management, administration, and distribution fees also increased from market appreciation and positive cash flows into separately managed account programs and Strategist programs of the Investment Advisors segment. This was partially offset by negative cash flows and lower fee structures from SEI fund programs and fee reductions in separately managed account programs. Revenue growth was also partially offset by client losses in the Institutional Investors segment. Average assets under management in equity and fixed income programs, excluding LSV, increased $26.7 billion, or 15%, to $209.8 billion in the first six months of 2026 as compared to $183.1 billion during the first six months of 2025.
35
•Revenues from our strategic acquisition of Stratos in the first six months of 2026 were $40.1 million.
•Revenue from Information processing and software servicing fees increased in the first six months of 2026 primarily from new client conversions and growth from existing SEI Wealth PlatformSM (SWP) clients.
•Earnings from LSV increased to $70.4 million in the first six months of 2026 as compared to $62.4 million in the first six months of 2025 due to market appreciation of assets under management and increased performance fees. Negative cash flows from existing clients and client losses partially offset the increase in earnings from LSV.
•Operating expenses increased primarily from compensation, benefits and other personnel costs and higher direct costs reflected in subadvisory, distribution and other asset management costs. The increase in personnel costs was largely attributable to business growth, primarily in the Investment Managers segment. This increase was partially offset by lower costs for consulting and outsourced vendor costs supporting operations in the Investment Managers and Private Banks segments.
•Operating expenses also increased due to the Stratos acquisition in December 2025. The incremental expenses primarily consisted of personnel costs and amortization of acquired intangible assets.
•Capitalized software development costs were $11.1 million in the first six months of 2026, of which $7.5 million was for continued enhancements to SWP. Capitalized software development costs also include $3.7 million of software development costs in the first six months of 2026 for SEI Scope, a new platform for the Investment Managers segment placed into service during the third quarter 2025.
•Amortization expense of capitalized software development costs related to SWP was $15.2 million in the first six months of 2026 as compared to $14.3 million in the first six months of 2025. Amortization expense related to the SEI Scope platform was $3.0 million in the first six months of 2026.
•SEI repurchased 3.8 million shares of its common stock for $320.7 million in the first six months of 2026.
Stratos Wealth Holdings
In December 2025, we completed the first stage of our strategic investment in the Stratos business (Stratos), a network of affiliated companies focused on supporting the success of financial advisors. During the first six months of 2026, we completed the purchases of 100% interest of nine entities and a majority interest in two additional entities. These purchases were funded by a cash deposit made in December 2025 and the issuance of promissory notes. Stratos contributed $40.1 million to revenue and $6.1 million to operating profit, which includes $12.8 million of expense associated with acquired intangible amortization, before considering non-controlling interest (See Note 12 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

Net gain from investments
Net gain from investments in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to unrealized mark-to-market gains recorded in current earnings associated with Company-sponsored investment funds and other investments from market appreciation in 2026 (See Notes 2 and 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
Interest and dividend income
Interest and dividend income is earned based upon the amount of cash that is invested daily. The decrease in interest and dividend income in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was due to lower invested cash balances and, to a lesser extent, an overall decline in interest rates.
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates primarily includes the earnings from our ownership interest in LSV. The table below presents the revenues and net income of LSV and the proportionate share in LSV's earnings.

The increase in earnings from LSV in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to market appreciation of assets under management. An increase in performance fees in the second quarter 2026 also positively impacted our earnings from LSV. Negative cash flows from existing clients and client losses partially offset the increase in earnings. Average assets under management by LSV increased $21.6 billion to $110.2 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $88.6 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of 24%.
Our total partnership interest in LSV was approximately 38.4% as of June 30, 2026 (See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
44
Net gain from consolidated variable interest entities
Net gain from consolidated variable interest entities in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 reflects the total net gains of the LSV Global Market Neutral Fund LP consolidated into our financial statements. The portion of this gain associated with our investment in the fund was $6.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026 (See Notes 1 and 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
Amortization
Amortization expense on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations consists of:

| Total amortization expense | $ | 19,137 | $ | 10,449 | 83% | $ | 37,491 | $ | 21,159 | 77% | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Capitalized software development costs
The increase in amortization expense related to capitalized software development costs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was due to significant enhancements to SWP and the placement into service of SEI Scope during the third quarter 2025 (See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
Intangible assets acquired through acquisitions and asset purchases
The increase in amortization expense related to intangible assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was due to intangible assets related to the Stratos acquisition (See Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
Income Taxes
| Three Months Ended June 30, | Percent Change | Six Months Ended June 30, | Percent Change | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2026 | 2025 | 2026 | 2025 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Effective income tax rate | 21.2 | % | 22.3 | % | 22.3 | % | 22.5 | % | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to higher excess tax benefits recognized on employee stock option exercises and the favorable impact of purchased energy tax credits, both of which reduced the Company's income tax expense.
Stock-Based Compensation
We recognized $30.8 million and $28.0 million in stock-based compensation expense during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The amount of stock-based compensation expense recognized is primarily based upon management's estimate of when the financial vesting targets of outstanding stock options may be achieved. Any change in the estimate could result in the amount of stock-based compensation expense to be accelerated, spread out over a longer period, or reversed. This may cause volatility in the recognition of stock-based compensation expense in future periods and could materially affect earnings (See Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
We expect to recognize approximately $32.4 million in stock-based compensation expense during the remainder of 2026.
Regulatory Matters
Like many firms operating within the financial services industry, we are experiencing a complex and changing regulatory environment across our markets. Our current scale and reach as a provider to the financial services industry, the introduction and implementation of new solutions for our financial services industry clients, the increased regulatory oversight of the financial services industry generally, new laws and regulations affecting the financial services industry and ever-changing regulatory interpretations of existing laws and regulations, and a greater propensity of regulators to pursue enforcement actions and other sanctions against regulated entities, have made this an increasingly challenging and costly regulatory environment in which to operate.
SEI and some of our regulated subsidiaries have undergone or been scheduled to undergo a range of periodic or thematic reviews, examinations or investigations by numerous regulatory authorities around the world, including the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, the
45
Financial Conduct Authority of the United Kingdom (FCA), the Central Bank of Ireland (CBI), the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (CSSF), and others. These regulatory activities typically result in the identification of matters or practices to be addressed by us or our subsidiaries and, in certain circumstances, the regulatory authorities require remediation activities or pursue enforcement proceedings against us or our subsidiaries. As described under the caption “Regulatory Considerations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, the range of possible sanctions that are available to regulatory authorities include limitations on our ability to engage in business for specified periods of time or with certain restrictions, the revocation of registration, censures and fines. The direct and indirect costs of responding to these regulatory activities and of complying with new or modified regulations, as well as the potential financial costs and potential reputational impact against us of any enforcement proceedings that might result, is uncertain but could have a material adverse impact on our operating results or financial position.
Non-GAAP Information and Reconciliation
We present certain non‑GAAP financial measures to supplement the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management believes these measures provide useful information to investors by enhancing the understanding of our core operating performance and facilitating comparisons across reporting periods. These non‑GAAP measures are also used by our management to evaluate operating results, allocate resources, and assess performance against strategic objectives.
These non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The following schedules reconcile U.S. GAAP Net income attributable to SEI Investments Company and Income from operations on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025:

(1) This non-GAAP adjustment removes incremental and directly attributable costs incurred to execute acquisitions, such as third-party advisory, legal, accounting, valuation, and due diligence. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, this non-GAAP adjustment
46
consisted of the legal costs, advisory fees, and due diligence fees in relation to the Stratos acquisition. Management believes adjusting for these charges helps the reader's ability to understand our core operating results and increases comparability quarter to quarter.
(2) This non-GAAP adjustment removes the impact of amortization expense associated with acquired intangible assets (e.g., customer relationships, technology, trade names). This non-GAAP adjustment removes only amortization recorded in the current period related to acquired intangibles from prior acquisitions. The non-GAAP adjustments in 2026 include the amortization of the acquired intangibles from the Stratos acquisition, which closed in December 2025. Management included the Stratos related amortization expense net of the 42.5% NCI adjustment for the adjusted EPS calculation. However, this adjustment is not inclusive of the NCI portion for adjusted income from operations. The associated revenues are not adjusted. Management believes adjusting for these charges helps the reader's ability to understand our core operating results and increases comparability quarter to quarter.
(3) This non-GAAP adjustment removes realized gains on the sale of assets owned or entities under our control, out of the normal course of business. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the adjustment consisted of the realized gain from the sale of Family Office Services (FOS). Management believes adjusting for these gains helps the reader's ability to understand our core operating results and increases comparability quarter to quarter.
(4) This non-GAAP adjustment removes individually significant litigation settlements and insurance proceeds. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, this non-GAAP adjustment consisted of a $4.5M settlement related to a vendor matter. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, this non-GAAP adjustment was related to litigation settlements. Management included these transactions as non-GAAP adjustments since they were out of the normal course of business. Management believes adjusting for these items helps the reader's ability to understand our core operating results and increases comparability quarter to quarter.
(5) Income tax effects are presented as a separate reconciling item (not netted within each adjustment). For performance measures, the tax effect reflects current and deferred tax expense commensurate with the adjusted measure of profitability. The methodology used (e.g., statutory rate, effective rate, or discrete item approach) is consistently applied. All of the above items use a systematic approach.

Our credit facility provides for borrowings up to $500.0 million and is scheduled to expire in August 2030 (See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). As of July 10, 2026, we had outstanding letters of credit of $4.6 million which reduced the amount available under the credit facility. These letters of credit were primarily issued for the expansion of the corporate headquarters and are due to expire in 2026. As of July 10, 2026, the amount of the credit facility available for corporate purposes was $495.4 million.
The availability of the credit facility is subject to compliance with certain covenants set forth in the agreement. The credit facility contains covenants which restrict our ability to engage in transactions with affiliates other than wholly-owned subsidiaries or to incur liens or certain types of indebtedness as defined in the agreement. In the event of a default under the credit facility, we would also be restricted from paying dividends on, or repurchasing our common stock. Currently, our ability to borrow from the credit facility is not limited by any covenant of the agreement (See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
The majority of excess cash reserves are primarily placed in accounts located in the United States that invest in commercial paper and SEI-sponsored money market mutual funds denominated in the U.S. dollar. We also utilize demand deposit accounts or money market accounts at several well-established financial institutions located in the United States. Accounts used to manage these excess cash reserves do not impose any restrictions or limitations that would prevent us from being able to access such cash amounts immediately. As of July 10, 2026, the amount of cash and cash equivalents considered free and immediately accessible for other general corporate purposes was $239.2 million.
Cash and cash equivalents include cash of $76.8 million held in accounts of the LSV Global Equity Market Neutral Fund, LP consolidated into our financial statements and may only be used to settle obligations of the fund (See Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
47
Cash and cash equivalents also include accounts managed by subsidiaries that are used in their operations or to cover specific business and regulatory requirements. The availability of this cash for other purposes beyond the operations of these subsidiaries may be limited. We therefore do not include accounts of foreign subsidiaries in the calculation of free and immediately accessible cash for other general corporate purposes. A portion of the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries are deemed repatriated. Any subsequent transfer of available cash related to the repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries could significantly increase free and immediately accessible cash.
Cash flows from operations increased $104.4 million in the first six months of 2026 compared to the first six months of 2025 primarily from the positive change in working capital accounts, increased distributions received from unconsolidated affiliates and non-cash adjustments.
Net cash from investing activities includes:
•Purchases, sales and maturities of marketable securities. Purchases, sales and maturities of marketable securities in the first six months of 2026 and 2025 were as follows:

See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information related to marketable securities.
•The capitalization of costs incurred in developing computer software. We capitalized $11.1 million of software development costs in the first six months of 2026 as compared to $14.5 million in the first six months of 2025 related to significant enhancements for the expanded functionality of the SEI Wealth Platform and a new platform for the Investment Managers segment.
•Capital expenditures. Capital expenditures in the first six months of 2026 were $15.0 million as compared to $12.5 million in the first six months of 2025. Expenditures in 2026 and 2025 include capital outlays for purchased software and equipment for data center operations.
Net cash from financing activities includes:
•The repurchase of common stock. We had total capital outlays of $320.7 million during the first six months of 2026 and $383.3 million during the first six months of 2025 for the repurchase of common stock.
•Proceeds from the issuance of common stock. We received $90.5 million and $87.4 million in proceeds from the issuance of common stock during the first six months of 2026 and 2025, respectively, through our equity compensation plans. These proceeds were primarily from stock option exercise activity.
•Dividend payments. Cash dividends paid were $126.3 million in the first six months of 2026 as compared to $123.3 million in the first six months of 2025.
Cash Requirements
Cash requirements and liquidity needs are primarily funded through cash flow from operations and our capacity for additional borrowing. At June 30, 2026, unused sources of liquidity consisted of cash and cash equivalents and the amount available under our credit facility.
We are obligated to make payments in connection with the credit facility, operating leases, maintenance contracts, promissory notes and other commitments. We believe our operating cash flow, available borrowing capacity, and existing cash and cash equivalents will provide adequate funds for these obligations and ongoing operations. We currently anticipate that our available funds and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet our operational cash needs, expected M&A activity, and fund our stock repurchase program for at least the next 12 months and for the foreseeable future.
Forward-Looking Information and Risk Factors
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements. Certain information contained in this discussion is or may be considered forward-looking. Forward-looking statements relate to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. Forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that involve certain risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control or are subject to change. Although we believe our assumptions are reasonable, they could be inaccurate. Our actual future revenues and income could differ materially from our expected results. We have no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements.
48

We conduct operations through many regulated wholly-owned subsidiaries. These subsidiaries include:
•SEI Investments Distribution Co., or SIDCO, a broker-dealer registered with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., or FINRA;
•SEI Investments Management Corporation, or SIMC, an investment advisor registered with the SEC under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, or CFTC, under the Commodity Exchange Act;
•SEI Private Trust Company, or SPTC, a limited purpose federal thrift chartered and regulated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency;
•SEI Trust Company, or STC, a Pennsylvania trust company, regulated by the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities;
•SEI Institutional Transfer Agent, Inc., or SITA, a transfer agent registered with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
•SEI Investments (Europe) Limited, or SIEL, an investment manager and financial institution subject to regulation by the Financial Conduct Authority of the United Kingdom, or FCA;
•SEI Investments Canada Company, or SEI Canada, an investment fund manager that has various other capacities that is regulated by the Ontario Securities Commission and various provincial authorities;
•SEI Investments Global, Limited, or SIGL, a management company for Undertakings for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities, or UCITS, and for Alternative Investment Funds, or AIFs, that is regulated primarily by the Central Bank of Ireland, or CBI;
•SEI Investments - Global Fund Services, Ltd., or GFSL, an authorized provider of administration services for Irish and non-Irish collective investment schemes that is regulated by the CBI;
•SEI Investments - Depositary and Custodial Services (Ireland) Limited, or D&C, an authorized provider of depositary and custodial services that is regulated by the CBI;
•SEI Investments - Luxembourg S.A., or SEI Lux, a professional of the specialized financial sector subject to regulation by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg;
•SEI Investments Global (Cayman), Ltd., a full mutual fund administrator that is regulated by the Cayman Island Monetary Authority;
•SEI Investments (South Africa) (PTY) Limited, a Private Company that is a licensed Financial Service Provider regulated by the Financial Sector Conduct Authority; and
•SEI Investments - Guernsey Limited, a provider of custody, administration and reporting services that is regulated by the Guernsey Financial Services Commission.
In addition to the regulatory authorities listed above, our subsidiaries are subject to the jurisdiction of regulatory authorities in other foreign countries or jurisdictions. Further, in connection with our strategic investment in Stratos, we own 57.5% of the holding company that holds the equity of Stratos Wealth Securities, LLC, a limited purpose broker-dealer registered with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and a member of FINRA, and the following SEC registered investment advisors:
•Stratos Wealth Advisors, LLC;
•Stratos Wealth Partners, Ltd.;
•Stratos Investment Management, LLC;
•Renaissance Investment Group, LLC; and
•Norland LLC.
In addition to our wholly-owned or majority-owned subsidiaries, we also own a minority interest of approximately 38.4% in LSV, which is also an investment advisor registered with the SEC.
The Company, its regulated subsidiaries, their regulated services and solutions and their customers are all subject to extensive legislation, regulation, and supervision that recently has been subject to, and continues to experience, significant change and increased regulatory activity. These changes and regulatory activities could have a material adverse effect on us and our clients.
The various governmental agencies and self-regulatory authorities that regulate or supervise the Company and its subsidiaries have broad administrative powers. In the event of a failure to comply with laws, regulations, and requirements of these agencies and authorities, or to meet regulator expectations, the possible business process changes required or sanctions that may be imposed include the suspension of individual employees, limitations on our ability to engage in business for specified periods of time or a direction that we comply with certain restrictions, the revocation of applicable
50
registration as a broker-dealer, investment advisor or other regulated entity, and, as the case may be, censures and fines. Currently, our subsidiary in the United Kingdom, SIEL, is working with the FCA to determine the nature and scope of remedial actions in which SIEL will engage in order to meet the FCA's expectations and to enable SIEL to continue to grow and execute on its development and offering of new products and solutions. Additionally, certain securities and banking laws applicable to us and our subsidiaries provide for certain private rights of action that could give rise to civil litigation. Any litigation could have significant financial and non-financial consequences including monetary judgments and the requirement to take action or limit activities that could ultimately affect our business.
Governmental scrutiny from regulators, legislative bodies, and law enforcement agencies with respect to matters relating to our regulated subsidiaries and their activities, services and solutions, our business practices, our past actions and other matters has increased dramatically in the past several years. Responding to these examinations, investigations, actions, and lawsuits, regardless of the ultimate outcome of the proceeding, is time consuming and expensive and can divert the time and effort of our senior management from our business. Penalties, fines and changes to business processes sought by regulatory authorities have increased substantially over the last several years, and certain regulators have been more likely in recent years to commence enforcement actions or to advance or support legislation targeted at the financial services industry. We continue to be subject to inquiries from examinations and investigations by supervisory and enforcement divisions of regulatory authorities and expect this to continue in the future. We believe this is also the case with many of our regulated clients. Governmental scrutiny and legal and enforcement proceedings can also have a negative impact on our reputation, our relationship with clients and prospective clients, and on the morale and performance of our employees, which could adversely affect our businesses and results of operations.
We are subject to U.S. and foreign anti-money laundering and financial transparency laws that require implementation of regulations applicable to financial services companies, including standards for verifying client identification and monitoring client transactions and detecting and reporting suspicious activities. We offer investment and banking solutions that also are subject to regulation by the federal and state securities and banking authorities, as well as foreign regulatory authorities, where applicable. Existing or future regulations that affect these solutions could lead to a reduction in sales of these solutions or require modifications of these solutions.
We must comply with economic sanctions and embargo programs administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and similar national and multinational bodies and governmental agencies outside the United States, as well as anti-corruption and anti-money laundering laws and regulations throughout the world. We can incur higher costs and face greater compliance risks in structuring and operating our businesses to comply with these requirements. Furthermore, a violation of a sanction or embargo program or anti-corruption or anti-money laundering laws and regulations could subject us and our subsidiaries, and individual employees, to regulatory enforcement actions as well as significant civil and criminal penalties.
Our businesses are also subject to privacy and data protection information security legal requirements concerning the use and protection of certain personal information. These include those adopted pursuant to the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003 in the United States, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the EU, Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act, the Cayman Islands' Data Protection Law, and various other laws. Privacy and data security legislation is a priority issue in many states and localities in the United States, as well as foreign jurisdictions outside of the EU. For example, California enacted the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) which broadly regulates the sale of the consumer information of California residents and grants California residents certain rights to, among other things, access and delete data about them in certain circumstances. Other states are considering similar proposals. Such attempts by the states to regulate have the potential to create a patchwork of differing and/or conflicting state regulations. Ensuring compliance under ever-evolving privacy legislation, such as GDPR and CCPA, is an ongoing commitment, which involves substantial costs.
Compliance with existing and future regulations and responding to and complying with recent increased regulatory activity affecting broker-dealers, investment advisors, investment companies, financial institutions, and their service providers could have a significant impact on us. We periodically undergo regulatory examinations and respond to regulatory inquiries and document requests. In addition, recent and continuing legislative activity in the United States and in other jurisdictions (including the European Union and the United Kingdom) have made and continue to make extensive changes to the laws regulating financial services firms. As a result of these examinations, inquiries, and requests, as a result of increased civil litigation activity, and as a result of these new laws and regulations, we engage legal counsel and other subject matter experts, review our compliance procedures, solution and service offerings, and business operations, and make changes as we deem necessary or as may be required by the applicable authority. These additional activities and required changes may result in increased expense or may reduce revenues.
Our bank clients are subject to supervision by federal, state, and foreign banking and financial services authorities concerning the manner in which such clients purchase and receive our products and services. Our plan sponsor clients and our subsidiaries providing services to those clients are subject to supervision by the Department of Labor and

compliance with employee benefit regulations. Investment advisor and broker-dealer clients are regulated by the SEC, state securities authorities, or FINRA. Existing or future regulations applicable to our clients may affect our clients’ purchase of our products and services.
In addition, see the discussion of governmental regulations in Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for a description of the risks that the current regulatory regimes and proposed regulatory changes may present for our business.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Information required by this item is set forth under the captions "Our revenues and earnings are affected by changes in capital markets and significant changes in the value of financial instruments" and "Changes in interest rates may affect the value of our fixed-income investment securities" in Item 1A Risk Factors and under the caption "Sensitivity of our revenues and earnings to capital market fluctuations" in Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. There have been no material changes to this information as it is disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2025.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. A controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls systems are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
(b) Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2026 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We and certain of our subsidiaries are a party to or have property subject to litigation and other proceedings, examinations and investigations that arise in the ordinary course of our business that we do not believe are material. These types of matters could result in fines, penalties, cost reimbursements or contributions, compensatory or treble damages or non-monetary sanctions or relief. We believe the probability is remote that the outcome of any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on SEI as a whole, notwithstanding that the unfavorable resolution of any matter may have a material effect on our net earnings in any particular interim reporting period. We cannot predict the outcome of legal or other proceedings with certainty. These matters include the proceedings summarized in “Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies” included in our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
