1) Organization and Description of the Business

OM Asset Management plc (“OMAM” or the “Company”), through its subsidiaries, is a global asset management business with interests in a diverse group of boutique investment management firms (the “Affiliates”) individually headquartered in the United States. The Company provides investment management services globally to predominantly institutional investors, in asset classes that include U.S. and global equities, fixed income, alternative assets, real estate, timber and secondary Funds. Fees for services are largely asset-based and, as a result, the Company’s revenue fluctuates based on the performance of financial markets and investors’ asset flows in and out of the Company’s products.
The Company’s Affiliates are organized as limited liability companies. The Company generally utilizes a profit-sharing model in structuring its compensation and ownership arrangements with Affiliates. The Affiliates’ variable compensation is generally based on each firm’s profitability. OMAM and Affiliate key employees share in profits after variable compensation according to their respective ownership interests. The profit-sharing model results in alignment of OMAM and Affiliate key employee economic interests, which is critical to the Company’s talent management strategy and long-term growth of the business. The Company operates in one reportable segment.
Until May 19, 2017, the Company was a majority-owned subsidiary of Old Mutual plc (“OM plc”), an international long-term savings, protection and investment group, listed on the London Stock Exchange. On October 15, 2014 , the Company completed the initial public offering (the “Offering”) by OM plc of 22,000,000 ordinary shares of the Company pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“the Securities Act”).  Additionally, the underwriters in the Offering exercised a portion of their overallotment option and purchased an additional 2,231,375 shares of the Company from OM plc.  On June 22, 2015 , the Company completed a secondary public offering by OM plc of 13,300,000 ordinary shares of the Company pursuant to the Securities Act.  Additionally, the underwriters in the secondary public offering exercised their full overallotment option and purchased an additional 1,995,000 shares of the Company from OM plc.  On March 11, 2016, OM plc announced the results of a strategic review, which included a plan to separate its underlying businesses, including OMAM. OM plc further announced on December 12, 2016 its intention to continue the reduction of its holdings in OMAM in an orderly manner which balances value, cost, time and risk. On December 16, 2016 , the Company completed a secondary public offering by OM plc of 13,000,000 ordinary shares of the Company pursuant to the Securities Act, along with 6,000,000 ordinary shares purchased and retired by the Company.  Additionally, the underwriters in the secondary public offering exercised their full overallotment option and purchased an additional 1,950,000 shares of the Company from OM plc.  On May 19, 2017 , the Company completed a secondary public offering by OM plc of 17,300,000 ordinary shares of the Company pursuant to the Securities Act, along with 5,000,000 ordinary shares purchased and retired by the Company. Additionally, the underwriters in the secondary public offering exercised their full overallotment option and purchased an additional 2,595,000 shares of the Company from OM plc. At June 30, 2017 , OM plc owned 20.1% of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares.
On March 25, 2017, OM plc announced that it had agreed to sell a 24.95% shareholding in the Company to HNA Capital US (“HNA”) in a two-step transaction (the “HNA Minority Sale”) for gross cash consideration of approximately $446 million , subject to certain closing conditions. The first tranche of the HNA Minority Sale for 11,414,676 ordinary shares closed on May 12, 2017. On May 24, 2017, OM plc appointed Dr. Guang Yang as an OM plc director. Following the completion of the second tranche of the HNA Minority Sale expected in the second half of 2017, OM plc's shareholding will reduce to 5.5% at which point HNA will have the right to appoint two directors to the Company’s board, including Dr. Yang, and OM plc will have no rights to appoint directors.

Transactions between the Company and OM plc are included in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, however material intercompany balances and transactions among the Company and its consolidated Affiliates are eliminated in consolidation.
These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 22, 2017 . The Company’s significant accounting policies, which have been consistently applied, are summarized in those Financial Statements.
Consolidation
Affiliates
The Company evaluates each of its Affiliates and other operating entities to determine the appropriate method of accounting. Generally, majority-owned entities or otherwise controlled investments in which the Company holds a controlling financial interest as the principal shareholder, managing member, or general partner are consolidated.
Funds
In evaluating whether or not a legal entity must be consolidated, the Company determines if such entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) or a voting interest entity (“VOE”). A VOE is considered an entity in which (i) the total equity investment at risk is sufficient to enable the entity to finance its activities independently and (ii) the equity holders at risk 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 the entity’s economic performance. A VIE is an entity that lacks one or more of the characteristics of a VOE. Assessing whether an entity is a VIE or VOE involves judgment and analysis. Factors considered in this assessment include the entity’s legal organization, the entity’s capital structure and equity ownership and any related party or de facto agent implications of the Company’s involvement with the entity. Investments that are determined to be VIEs are consolidated if the Company or a consolidated Affiliate is the primary beneficiary of the investment. VOEs are typically consolidated if the Company holds the majority voting interest or otherwise controls the entity.

2) Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

In the normal course of business, the Company’s Affiliates sponsor and manage certain investment vehicles (the “Funds”). The Company assesses consolidation requirements with respect to its Funds pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810, Consolidation, as amended by Accounting Standards Update 2015-02, Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis ("ASU 2015-02") relating to the consolidation of VIEs.
In evaluating whether the Company is the primary beneficiary, the Company evaluates its economic interests in the entity held either directly by the Company or indirectly through related parties. For VIEs that are investment companies subject to ASU 2010-10, Consolidation: Amendments for Certain Investment Funds , the primary beneficiary of the VIE is generally the variable interest holder that absorbs a majority of the expected losses of the VIE, receives a majority of the expected residual returns of the VIE, or both. The Company generally is not the primary beneficiary of Fund VIEs created to manage assets for clients unless the Company’s ownership interest, including interests of related parties, is substantial.
The primary beneficiary of a VIE is defined as the variable interest holder that has a controlling financial interest. A controlling financial interest is defined as (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impacts its economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. If no single party satisfies both criteria, but the Company and its related parties satisfy the criteria on a combined basis, then the primary beneficiary is the entity out of the related party group that is most closely associated to the VIE. The consolidation analysis can generally be performed qualitatively, however, if it is not readily apparent that the Company is not the primary beneficiary, a quantitative analysis may also be performed.
The Company consolidates VOEs when it has control over significant operating, financial and investing decisions of the entity or holds the majority voting interest. For VOEs organized as limited partnerships or as an entity with governance structures similar to a limited partnership (e.g., limited liability company with a managing member), the Company consolidates an entity when it holds the controlling general partnership interest and the limited partners do not hold substantive participating rights or rights to remove and replace the general partner or rights that could provide the limited partners with the ability to impact the ongoing governance and operating activities of the entity.
Upon the occurrence of certain events (such as contributions and redemptions, either by the Company, its Affiliates, or third parties, or amendments to the governing documents of the Company’s investees or sponsored Funds) management reviews and reconsiders its previous conclusion regarding the status of an entity as a VIE or a VOE. Additionally, management continually reconsiders whether the Company is deemed to be a VIE’s primary beneficiary who consolidates such entity. In the third quarter of 2016, following the transfer of certain seed capital investments from OM plc, the Company consolidated certain Funds pursuant to ASU 2015-02.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

3) Acquisitions

On August 18, 2016, the Company acquired a majority of the equity interests in Landmark Partners, LLC, (“Landmark”) a leading global secondary private equity, real estate and real asset investment firm. The Company acquired a 60% interest in Landmark in exchange for $242.7 million . There is also the potential for an additional payment of up to $225.0 million on or around December 31, 2018, subject to a service and other conditions. The equity interests of Landmark purchased by the Company entitle the Company to participate in the earnings of Landmark. Certain key members of the management team of Landmark retained the remaining 40% interest in Landmark, subject to certain vesting conditions. The Company financed the acquisition through proceeds from multiple note offerings, including $275.0 million of 4.80% senior notes due July 27, 2026 and $125.0 million of 5.125% senior notes due August 1, 2031.
The Company accounted for the acquisition of Landmark as a business combination which requires assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recorded at fair value. The following table presents a summary of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for OMAM’s acquisition of Landmark:

					
 	 	Landmark	
Purchase price	 	 	
Cash	 	$	239.2		
Seller's expenses	 	3.5		
Total consideration	 	242.7		
Identifiable assets and liabilities	 	 	
Cash	 	23.4		
Receivables	 	8.5		
Indefinite-life trade name	 	1.0		
Amortizable intangible asset management contracts	 	85.0		
Fixed assets	 	5.1		
Other current assets (liabilities), net	 	(26.7	)	
Assets (liabilities), net	 	(1.7	)	
Total identifiable assets and liabilities	 	94.6		
Goodwill	 	$	148.1		
The primary aspects of the purchase price allocation relate to amortizable intangible asset management contracts, the indefinite-life trade name and goodwill, which is the amount by which the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the net assets acquired. The amounts recorded for certain assets and liabilities are subject to adjustment as additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, certain measurement period adjustments were recorded to the provisional values recorded as of December 31, 2016. These adjustments primarily related to updated estimates, which resulted in an increase to the total consideration paid of $0.3 million , a decrease to the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired of $1.6 million and an increase to the amount recorded to goodwill of $1.9 million . The final determination of the fair values of certain assets and liabilities will be completed within the measurement period of up to one year from the applicable acquisition date, as permitted under U.S. GAAP. The final values may also result in changes to the amortization expense related to intangible assets and will be recognized in the period of adjustment. Any potential adjustments made could be material in relation to the values presented in the table above.

3) Acquisitions

The fair value of the amortizable intangible asset management contracts was determined using the excess earnings method, a form of the income approach. The principle behind the excess earnings method is that the value of the intangible asset is equal to the present value of the after-tax cash flows attributable to the intangible asset only.  Excess earnings represent the earnings remaining after applying post-tax contributory asset charges to reflect the return required on other assets that contribute to the generation of the forecast cash flows of the intangible asset.

The fair value of the trade name intangible asset was determined utilizing a relief-from-royalty method. The principle behind this method is that the value of the intangible asset is equal to the present value of the after-tax royalty savings attributable to owning the intangible asset.

The fair value estimate for all identifiable intangible assets is based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset, based on the most advantageous market for the asset (i.e., its highest and best use). This fair value estimate could include assets that are not intended to be used, may be sold or are intended to be used in a manner other than their best use.
The fair value of the acquired amortizable intangible asset management contracts had a useful life estimate of approximately 13.4 years at acquisition. Purchase price allocated to intangible assets and goodwill is expected to be deductible for U.S. tax purposes over a period of 15 years. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the fair value of the consideration paid and the values assigned to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
During the second half of 2016, the Company incurred transaction costs of $ 6.1  million related to the acquisition of Landmark. These costs are recorded within general and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. There were no transaction costs incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2017 .
In conjunction with the acquisition, the Company entered into compensation arrangements with employees of Landmark where pre-acquisition equity units held by Landmark employees became subject to a service condition. These units are accounted for as stock-based compensation, were fair valued as of the closing date of the acquisition and vest over varying increments from December 31, 2018 through December 31, 2024. These units contain put rights that provide liquidity to the employees upon vesting. The aforementioned additional payment of up to $225.0 million could be paid based on the growth of Landmark’s business. This arrangement is also accounted for as stock-based compensation, fair valued as of the closing date of the acquisition, and vests on December 31, 2018. Both the pre-acquisition equity units and the potential future payment are remeasured at the end of each reporting period.
The financial results of Landma rk included in the Company’s consolidated financial results for the  six months ended June 30, 2017 , include revenues of  $52.4 million , with $(26.2) million of net loss included in net income attributable to the Company, which includes amortization of inta ngible assets recorded in purchase accounting and compensation expense for the arrangements with the employees of Landmark noted above.

In September 2016, the Company purchased approximately  $39.6 million  of seed investments from OM plc under the terms of the seed capital management agreement, as amended (the “Seed Capital Management Agreement”).  In July 2017, the Company purchased all remaining seed capital investments covered by the Seed Capital Management Agreement from OM plc for $63.4 million . OMAM financed this purchase in part through borrowings under a non-recourse seed capital facility collateralized entirely by its seed capital holdings. See Note 8 for a further discussion of borrowings and debt and Note 14 for a further discussion of subsequent events.
In August 2017, the Company executed a non-binding term sheet with an entity owned by senior professionals of Heitman LLC to sell OMAM’s interest in Heitman LLC for $110 million with an expected closing date around year-end. The carrying value of OMAM’s investment in Heitman as of June 30, 2017 was $58.7 million and is included in the “Equity-accounted investments in Affiliates” line item in the table above. OMAM will retain its co-investment interests in Heitman-managed funds as well as any carried interest associated with these investments. See Note 14 for a further discussion of subsequent events.

(1)	Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are comprised of financial investments managed by the Company's Affiliates. $ 46.7 million in assets and $5.9 million in liabilities at June 30, 2017 and $35.5 million in assets and $5.0 million in liabilities at December 31, 2016 are the result of the consolidation of Funds sponsored by the Company’s Affiliates.	
The fair value of other investments is estimated based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs and therefore classified within Level II. The Company obtains prices from independent pricing services that may utilize broker quotes, but generally the independent pricing services will use various other pricing techniques which take into account appropriate factors such as yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other data. The Company has not made adjustments to the prices provided. If the pricing services are only able to (a) obtain a single broker quote or (b) utilize a pricing model, such securities are classified as Level III. If the pricing services are unable to provide prices, the Company attempts to obtain one or more broker quotes directly from a dealer or values such securities at the last bid price obtained. In either case, such securities are classified as Level III. The Company performs due diligence procedures over third party pricing vendors to understand their methodology and controls to support their use in the valuation process to ensure compliance with required accounting disclosures.
Equity, short-term investment funds and derivatives which are traded on a national securities exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation. To the extent these securities are actively traded

5) Fair Value Measurements (cont.)

and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are classified as Level I. These securities that trade in markets that are not considered to be active but are valued based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs obtained by the Company from independent pricing services are classified as Level II. 

(2)	Investments in separate accounts of $8.5 million at June 30, 2017 consist of approximately 2% of cash equivalents and 98% of equity securities. Investments in separate accounts of  $7.5 million  at  December 31, 2016  consist of approximately  28%  of cash equivalents and  72%  of equity securities. The Company has valued these using the published price of the underlying securities as of the measurement date. Accordingly, the Company has classified these investments as Level I.	

(3)	Investments related to long term compensation plans of $88.1 million and $78.1 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively, are investments in publicly registered daily redeemable funds (some managed by Affiliates), which the Company has classified as trading securities and valued using the published price as of the measurement dates. Accordingly, the Company has classified these investments as Level I.	

(4)	The $34.5 million and $ 40.5 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively, relate to investments in unconsolidated Funds which consist primarily of investments in Funds advised by Affiliates and are valued using NAV which the Company relies on to determine their fair value as a practical expedient and has therefore not classified these investments in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value amounts presented in this table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to amounts presented in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. These unconsolidated Funds consist primarily of real estate investment Funds and UCITS. The NAVs that have been provided by investees have been derived from the fair values of the underlying investments as of the measurement dates.	
These investments are subject to longer than monthly or quarterly redemption restrictions, and due to their nature, distributions are received only as cash flows are generated from underlying assets over the life of the Funds. The range of time over which the underlying assets are expected to be liquidated by the investees is approximately one to eight  years from June 30, 2017 . The valuation process for the underlying real estate investments held by the real estate investment Funds begins with each property or loan being valued by the investment teams. The valuations are then reviewed and approved by the valuation committee, which consists of senior members of the portfolio management, acquisitions, and research teams. For certain properties and loans, the valuation process may also include a valuation by independent appraisers. In connection with this process, changes in fair-value measurements from period to period are evaluated for reasonableness, considering items such as market rents, capitalization and discount rates, and general economic and market conditions. 
Not included in the above are $1.9 million and $52.0 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively, of various investments carried at cost, including investments in timber and timberlands.
There were no significant transfers of financial assets or liabilities among Levels I, II or III during the six months ended June 30, 2017 or 2016 .

6) Variable Interest Entities

The Company, through its Affiliates, sponsors the formation of various entities considered to be VIEs. These VIEs are primarily Funds managed by Affiliates and are investment vehicles typically owned entirely by third-party investors. Certain Funds may be capitalized with seed capital investments from the Company and may be owned partially by Affiliate key employees and/or individuals that own minority interests in an Affiliate.
The Company’s determination of whether it is the primary beneficiary of a Fund that is a VIE is based in part on an assessment of whether or not the Company and its related parties are exposed to the majority of the risks and rewards of the entity. Typically the Fund’s investors are entitled to substantially all of the economics of these VIEs with the exception of the management fees and performance fees, if any, earned by the Company or any investment the Company has made into the Funds. The Company generally is not the primary beneficiary of Fund VIEs created to manage assets for clients unless the Company’s ownership interest, including interests of related parties, is substantial.
The following table presents the assets and liabilities of Funds that are VIEs and consolidated by the Company (in millions):

								
 	6/30/2017	 	12/31/2016	
Assets	 		 	 		
Investments at fair value	$	21.4		 	$	14.9		
Other assets of consolidated Funds	0.5		 	0.6		
Total Assets	$	21.9		 	$	15.5		
Liabilities	 		 	 		
Other liabilities of consolidated Funds	$	0.5		 	$	0.7		
Total Liabilities	$	0.5		 	$	0.7		
"Investments at fair value" consist of investments in securities. The Company has also consolidated Funds that are not VIEs, and therefore the assets and liabilities of those Funds are not included in the table above.
The assets of consolidated VIEs presented in the table above belong to the investors in those Funds, are available for use only by the Fund to which they belong, and are not available for use by the Company to the extent they are held by non-controlling interests. Any debt or liabilities held by consolidated Funds have no recourse to the Company's general credit.
The Company’s involvement with Funds that are VIEs and not consolidated by the Company is generally limited to that of an investment manager and its investment in the unconsolidated VIE, if any. The Company’s investment in any unconsolidated VIE generally represents an insignificant interest of the Fund’s net assets and assets under management, such that the majority of the VIE’s results are attributable to third parties. The Company’s exposure to risk in these entities is generally limited to any capital contribution it has made or is required to make and any earned but uncollected management fees. The Company has not issued any investment performance guarantees to these VIEs or their investors.

6) Variable Interest Entities (cont.)

The following information pertains to unconsolidated VIEs for which the Company holds a variable interest (in millions):

								
 	June 30,
2017	 	December 31,
2016	
Unconsolidated VIE assets	$	5,931.6		 	$	6,006.3		
Unconsolidated VIE liabilities	$	3,782.8		 	$	3,740.2		
Equity interests on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet	$	59.2		 	$	54.2		
Maximum risk of loss (1)	$	63.5		 	$	58.5		

		

		
(1)	Includes equity investments the Company has made or is required to make and any earned but uncollected management/incentive fees. The Company does not record performance/incentive allocations until the respective measurement period has ended.	
In addition to the multiple unconsolidated VIE Funds, the Company determined that Heitman LLC, one of the Company’s Affiliates, is a VIE. The Company concluded that it is not the primary beneficiary of Heitman LLC because it does not hold the power to direct its most economically significant activities. The Company aggregated Heitman LLC with the Company’s other unconsolidated VIE Funds due to their similar risk profiles given that the risks and rewards are driven by changes in investment values and the Affiliates’ ability to manage those assets.
7) Related Party Transactions
OM plc has historically provided the Company with various oversight services, including governance, which includes compensation for board and executive committees, investor relations, procurement of insurance coverage, human resources, financial reporting, internal audit, treasury, systems, risk and tax services. Many of these services have been transitioned to the Company. That portion of the above costs which (i) are directly attributable to the Company, (ii) have been charged to the Company by OM plc and (iii) have been paid to OM plc by the Company, have been recorded in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and was $0.1 million and $0.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and $0.4 million and $0.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively.
During 2016, the Company made a loan to an equity-method Affiliate that was used to make co-investments in Affiliate Funds. Amounts due to the Company in connection with this loan are included in other assets on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and were $3.1 million and $2.7 million at June 30, 2017 and at December 31, 2016 , respectively.
During 2014, the Company entered into a Seed Capital Management Agreement, a Deferred Tax Asset Deed, a Co-investment Deed and a shareholder agreement with OM plc and/or OM plc’s subsidiaries. During 2016, the Company and OM plc agreed to amend the Seed Capital Management Agreement. As a result of the amendment, the Company purchased approximately $39.6 million of seed investments from OM plc in September 2016. As of June 30, 2017 , the Company managed approximately $97.2 million of seed and co-investment capital provided by OM plc. The Company purchased the remaining seed capital investments covered by the Seed Capital Management Agreement valued at $63.4 million in July 2017, financed by borrowings under a non-recourse seed capital facility (see Notes 8 and 14). Amounts owed to OM plc associated with the Co-investment Deed were $8.2 million at June 30, 2017 . As of June 30, 2017 , the Company had recorded $4.3 million for redemptions and estimated taxes

due under the Co-investment Deed. Amounts withheld in excess of the future tax liability will be payable to OM plc upon settlement.
During 2016, the Company and OM plc agreed to amend the Deferred Tax Asset Deed. Under the terms of the Deferred Tax Asset Deed, as amended, the Company agreed to make a payment of the net present value of the future tax benefits due to OM plc valued as of December 31, 2016 . This payment of $142.6 million will be made over three installments, with the first installment of $45.5 million paid on June 30, 2017 and the remaining two installments to be paid on December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2018. The Company retains an indemnity from OM plc that protects the realized and future tax benefits covered by the Deferred Tax Asset Deed (including the $142.6 million total payment referenced above) in the event of a tax law change or challenge from the IRS.
As the Company is a member of a group of related businesses, it is possible that the terms of certain related party transactions are not the same as those that would result from transactions with wholly unrelated parties.
8) Borrowings and Debt
The Company’s long-term debt at June 30, 2017 was comprised of a revolving credit facility and long-term bonds.
Revolving Credit Facility
On October 15, 2014, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility with Citibank, as administrative agent and issuing bank, and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated as joint lead arrangers and joint book runners (as amended, the “Credit Facility”). Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility, the Company may obtain loans on a revolving credit basis and procure the issuance of letters of credit in an aggregate amount at any time outstanding not in excess of $350 million . The Credit Facility has a maturity date of October 15, 2019. Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest, at OMAM’s option, at either the per annum rate equal to (a) the greatest of (i) the prime rate , (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5% and (iii) the one month Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 1.0% , plus, in each case an additional amount ranging from 0.25% to 1.00% , with such additional amount based from time to time on the ratio of the Company’s total consolidated indebtedness to Adjusted EBITDA (a “Leverage Ratio”) until either Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s assigned an initial rating to the Company’s senior, unsecured long-term indebtedness for borrowed money that was not subject to credit enhancement, or its credit rating, at which time such additional amount became based on its credit rating or (b) the London interbank offered rate for a period, at the Company’s election, equal to one, two, three or six months plus an additional amount ranging from 1.25% to 2.00% , with such additional amount based from time to time on the Company’s Leverage Ratio until it was assigned a credit rating, at which time such additional amount became based on its credit rating. In addition, the Company is charged a commitment fee based on the average daily unused portion of the revolving credit facility at a per annum rate ranging from 0.20% to 0.50% , with such amount based from time to time on its Leverage Ratio until it was assigned a credit rating, at which time such amount became based on the Company’s credit rating.
In July 2016, Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. and Standard & Poor’s each assigned an initial investment-grade rating to the Company’s senior, unsecured long-term indebtedness. As a result of the assignment of the credit ratings, the Company’s interest rate on outstanding borrowings was set at LIBOR + 1.50% and the commitment fee on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility was set at 0.25% . Prior to the assignment of the credit ratings, the Company’s interest rate on outstanding borrowings was based on the Company’s Leverage Ratio and was set at LIBOR + 1.25% and the commitment fee on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility was set at 0.20% .

8) Borrowings and Debt (cont.)

Under the Credit Facility, the ratio of third-party borrowings to trailing twelve months Adjusted EBITDA cannot exceed 3.0 x, and the interest coverage ratio must not be less than 4.0 x.
At June 30, 2017 the outstanding balance of the facility was $15.0 million ( $335.0 million of undrawn revolving credit facility capacity). Including $392.5 million of long-term bonds (see below), the Company’s ratio of third-party borrowings to trailing twelve months Adjusted EBITDA was 1.67 x and interest coverage ratio was 11.0x . The fair value of borrowings on the revolving credit facility approximated the net cost basis as of June 30, 2017 .
At December 31, 2016 the outstanding balance of the facility was $0.0 million ( $350.0 million of undrawn revolving credit facility capacity). Including $392.3 million of long-term bonds (see below), the Company’s ratio of third-party borrowings to trailing twelve months Adjusted EBITDA was 1.88 x and interest coverage ratio was 18.5x .
Long-term bonds
The Company’s long-term bonds were comprised of the following as of the dates indicated (in millions): 

																									
 	 	June 30, 2017	 	December 31, 2016	
Long-term bonds:	 	Maturity amount	 	Discount and issuance costs	 	Carrying value	 	Fair Value	 	Carrying value	 	Fair Value	
4.80% Senior Notes Due 2026	 	$	275.0		 	$	(3.3	)	 	$	271.7		 	$	279.1		 	$	271.6		 	$	271.0		
5.125% Senior Notes Due 2031	 	125.0		 	(4.2	)	 	120.8		 	122.8		 	120.7		 	107.9		
Total long-term bonds	 	$	400.0		 	$	(7.5	)	 	$	392.5		 	$	401.9		 	$	392.3		 	$	378.9		
In July 2016, the Company issued $275.0 million of 4.80% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) and $125.0 million of 5.125% Senior Notes due 2031 (the “2031 Notes”). The Company used the net proceeds of these offerings to finance the acquisition of Landmark in August 2016, settle an outstanding interest rate lock, purchase seed capital from OM plc and pay down the balance of the Revolving Credit Facility.
4.80% Senior Notes Due July 2026
The $275.0 million 2026 Notes were sold at a discount of $(0.5) million and the Company incurred debt issuance costs of $(3.0) million , which are being amortized to interest expense over the ten -year term. The 2026 Notes can be redeemed at any time prior to the scheduled maturity in part or in aggregate, at the greater of 100% of the principal amount at that time or the sum of the remaining scheduled payments discounted at the treasury rate (as defined) plus 0.5% , together with any related accrued and unpaid interest.

5.125% Senior Notes Due August 2031
The $125.0 million 2031 Notes incurred debt issuance costs of $(4.3) million , which are being amortized to interest expense over the fifteen -year term. The 2031 Notes can be redeemed at any time, on or after August 1, 2019 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount together with any related accrued and unpaid interest.
The fair value of the long-term bonds was determined using broker quotes and any recent trading activity for each of the notes listed above, which are considered Level II inputs.

8) Borrowings and Debt (cont.)

Interest expense
Interest expense incurred amounted to a total of $5.9 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Interest expense incurred amounted to a total of $11.8 million and $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Interest expense consists of interest accrued on the long-term debt and amortization of debt-related costs.
Non-Recourse Seed Capital Facility
In July 2017, the Company purchased all remaining seed capital investments covered by the Seed Capital Management Agreement from OM plc for $63.4 million . OMAM financed this purchase in part through borrowings under a non-recourse seed capital facility collateralized entirely by its seed capital holdings. See Note 7 for a further discussion of the Seed Capital Management Agreement and Note 14 for a further discussion of subsequent events, including the terms of the non-recourse seed capital facility.
9) Commitments and Contingencies
Operational commitments
The Company had unfunded commitments to invest up to approximately $67 million in co-investments with its Affiliates as of June 30, 2017 . These commitments will be funded as required through the end of the respective investment periods ranging through fiscal 2022 .
Certain Affiliates operate under regulatory authorities that require that they maintain minimum financial or capital requirements. Management is not aware of any violations of such financial requirements occurring during the period.
Litigation
The Company and its Affiliates are subject to claims, legal proceedings and other contingencies in the ordinary course of their business activities. Each of these matters is 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 for matters for which the outcome is probable and can be reasonably estimated. If an insurance claim or other indemnification for a litigation accrual is available to the Company, the associated gain will not be recognized until all contingencies related to the gain have been resolved. As of June 30, 2017 , there were no material accruals for claims, legal proceedings or other contingencies.
Indemnifications
In the normal course of business, such as through agreements to enter into business combinations and divestitures of Affiliates, the Company enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Company’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Company that have not yet occurred.

9) Commitment and Contingencies (cont.)

Foreign tax contingency
The Company has clients in non-U.S. jurisdictions which require entities that are conducting certain business activities in such jurisdictions to collect and remit tax assessed on certain fees paid for goods and services provided. The Company does not believe this requirement is applicable based on its limited business activities in these jurisdictions. However, given the fact that uncertainty exists around the requirement, the Company has chosen to evaluate its potential exposure related to non-collection and remittance of these taxes. At June 30, 2017 , management of the Company has estimated the potential maximum exposure and concluded that it is not material. No accrual for the potential exposure has been recorded as the probability of incurring any potential liability relating to this exposure is not probable at June 30, 2017 .
On July 13, 2017, the UK published revised draft legislation to be included in the U.K. Finance Bill (No. 2) 2017 that would impact the Company’s tax position as of July 13, 2017. See Note 14 for a further discussion of subsequent events.
Considerations of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash investments. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents and short term investments with various financial institutions. These financial institutions are typically located in cities in which the Company and its Affiliates operate. For the Company and certain Affiliates, cash deposits at a financial institution may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits.

10) Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to controlling interests by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is similar to basic earnings per share, but is adjusted for the effect of potentially issuable ordinary shares, except when inclusion is antidilutive. 
The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per ordinary share is as follows (dollars in millions, except per share data):

																
 	Three Months Ended June 30,	 	Six Months Ended June 30,	
 	2017	 	2016	 	2017	 	2016

12) Derivatives and Hedging

Cash flow hedge
In July 2015, the Company entered into a $300 million notional Treasury rate lock contract which was designated and qualified as a cash flow hedge. The Company documented its hedging strategy and risk management objective for this contract in anticipation of a future debt issuance. The Treasury rate lock contract eliminated the impact of fluctuations in the underlying benchmark interest rate for future forecasted debt issuances. The Company assessed the effectiveness of the hedging contract at inception and on a quarterly basis thereafter. In November 2015, at the Treasury rate lock termination date, the Company de-designated the Treasury rate lock and entered into an extension for the same $300 million notional through early July 2016. In July 2016, the Company entered into a second extension to the Treasury rate lock in conjunction with the issuances of the previously forecasted debt. The forecasted debt issuances occurred in July 2016 and the Treasury rate lock, which had an accumulated fair value of $(34.4) million , was settled. Refer to Note 8, Borrowings and Debt, for additional information on the debt issuances.
Consistent with the original Treasury rate lock, the extended Treasury rate locks were designated and qualified as cash flow hedges. The Company documented its hedging strategy and risk management objective for these contracts in anticipation of the July 2016 debt issuance. The extended Treasury rate locks effectively eliminated the impact of fluctuations in the underlying benchmark interest rate for the debt issuances. The Company assessed the effectiveness of the hedging contracts at each of the extended Treasury rate locks’ inception dates and on a quarterly basis thereafter, where applicable. At the rate lock settlement the hedging contracts were evaluated to be highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows associated with the hedged items. The Company did not record any hedge ineffectiveness in 2016.
As of June 30, 2017 the balance recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income was $(26.2) million , net of tax. This balance will be reclassified to earnings through interest expense over the life of the issued debt. An amount of $1.3 million has been reclassified for the six months ended June 30, 2017 . During the next twelve months the Company expects to reclassify approximately $2.7 million to interest expense.
13) Discontinued Operations and Restructuring
All of the Company’s discontinued operations were wound down or transferred to OM plc prior to 2016.
The Company recognized a gain on disposal, net of taxes, of $0.0 million and $1.4 million , with basic and diluted discontinued operations earnings per share of $0.00 and $0.01 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively.

The Company recognized a gain (loss) on disposal, net of taxes, of $(0.1) million and $1.6 million , with basic and diluted discontinued operations earnings per share of $0.00 and $0.01 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Gains and losses on disposal of discontinued operations represent the Company’s rights or obligations related to contractual residual interests in previously discontinued operations.

14) Subsequent Events

Sale of Heitman LLC to senior professionals of Heitman

Following the closing of the first tranche of the sale transaction to HNA Capital, OMAM provided an entity owned by senior professionals of Heitman LLC a right of first offer to buy OMAM’s interest in Heitman LLC at a price the Company determined to be its “good faith estimate of the reasonable value” of such interest. In August 2017, the Company executed a non-binding term sheet to sell its stake in Heitman LLC for cash consideration totaling $110 million . The transaction is expected to close around year-end. OMAM will retain its co-investment interests in Heitman-managed funds as well as any carried interest associated with these investments. Equity method income from Heitman represented approximately 8% of GAAP earnings for the first six months of 2017 and approximately 6% of GAAP earnings of OMAM for 2016.

Purchase of seed capital and associated financing

In July 2017, the Company purchased all remaining seed capital investments covered by the Seed Capital Management Agreement from OM plc for $63.4 million . OMAM financed this purchase in part through borrowings under a non-recourse seed capital facility collateralized entirely by its seed capital holdings. The Company entered into this facility as of July 17, 2017, and may borrow up to $65.0 million , so long as the borrowing does not represent more than 50% of the value of the seed capital collateral. Since this facility is non-recourse to OMAM beyond the seed investments themselves, drawdowns under this facility are excluded from the Company’s third party debt levels for purposes of calculating the Company’s credit ratio covenants under its revolving credit facility (see Note 8).

UK tax legislation

On July 13, 2017, (the “Effective Date”) the UK published revised draft legislation to be included in the U.K. Finance Bill (No. 2) 2017 (the “Finance Bill”) that would impact the Company’s tax position as of the Effective Date. The legislation is expected to receive Royal Assent later in the year and there is still scope for changes to be made as the Finance Bill is finalized. If this legislation is enacted as proposed, the Company’s UK tax liability is expected to increase by approximately $10 million annually. While the Company continues to explore alternative structures that comply with these new rules, given the Effective Date, the Company expects to record the incremental U.K. tax as of that date.

Overview
We are a diversified, multi-boutique asset management firm headquartered in London, UK. We operate our business through eight affiliate firms to whom we refer in this quarterly report as our Affiliates. Through our Affiliates, we offer a diverse range of actively-managed investment strategies and products to institutional investors around the globe. While our Affiliates maintain autonomy in the investment process and the day-to-day management of their businesses, our strategy is to work with them to accelerate the growth and profitability of their firms.
Under U.S. GAAP, our Affiliates may be consolidated into our operations or may be accounted for as equity investments. We may also be required to consolidate certain of our Affiliates’ sponsored investment entities, or Funds, due to the nature of our decision-making rights, our economic interests in these Funds or the rights of third-party clients in those Funds.
Our Affiliates and their principal strategies include:

•	Acadian Asset Management LLC (“Acadian”) —a leading quantitatively-oriented manager of active global and international equity, and alternative strategies.	

•	Barrow, Hanley, Mewhinney & Strauss, LLC (“Barrow Hanley”) —a widely recognized value-oriented investment manager of U.S., international and global equities, fixed income and a range of balanced investment management strategies.	

•	Campbell Global, LLC (“Campbell Global”) —a leading sustainable timber and natural resource investment manager that seeks to deliver superior investment performance by focusing on unique acquisition opportunities, client objectives and disciplined management.	

•	Copper Rock Capital Partners LLC (“Copper Rock”) —a specialized growth equity investment manager of small-cap international, global and emerging markets equity strategies.	

•	Heitman LLC (“Heitman”) (1)(2) —a leading real estate investment manager of high-quality global strategies focused on private real estate equity, public real estate securities and real estate debt.	

•	Investment Counselors of Maryland, LLC (“ICM”) (1) — a value-driven domestic equity manager with product offerings across the entire capitalization range and a primary focus on small-cap companies.	

•	Landmark Partners, LLC (“Landmark”) —a leading global secondary private equity, real estate and real asset investment firm.	

•	Thompson, Siegel & Walmsley LLC (“TSW”) —a value-oriented investment manager focused on small- and mid-cap U.S. equity, international equity and fixed income strategies.

In August 2017, the Company executed a non-binding term sheet to sell its stake in Heitman LLC for cash consideration totaling $110 million . The transaction is expected to close around year-end. OMAM will retain its co-investment interests in Heitman-managed funds as well as any carried interest associated with these investments. Heitman represented approximately 3% of ENI earnings for the first six months of 2017, and 12.5% of AUM at June 30, 2017.

The Economics of Our Business
Our profitability is affected by a variety of factors including the level and composition of our average assets under management, or AUM, fee rates charged on AUM and our expense structure. Our Affiliates earn management fees based on assets under management. Approximately 70% of our management fees are calculated based on average AUM (calculated on either a daily or monthly basis) with the remainder of our management fees calculated based on period end AUM or other measuring methods. Changes in the levels of our AUM are driven by our investment performance and net client cash flows. Our Affiliates may also earn performance fees, or adjust management fees, when certain accounts differ in relation to relevant benchmarks or exceed or fail to exceed required returns. Approximately $52.9 billion , or 24% of our AUM in consolidated Affiliates, are in accounts with incentive fee or carried interest features in which OMAM participates in the performance fee. The majority of these incentive fees are calculated based on value added over the relevant benchmarks on a rolling three year basis. Carried interests are features of private equity funds, which are calculated based on long term cumulative returns. In addition, approximately $11 billion of performance fee eligible AUM is managed by our equity-accounted Affiliates. Fees earned on these assets are not reflected as part of ENI or U.S. GAAP performance fee revenue.
Our largest expense item is compensation and benefits paid to our and our Affiliates’ employees, which consists of both fixed and variable components. Fixed compensation and benefits represents base salaries and wages, payroll taxes and the costs of our employee benefit programs. Variable compensation, calculated as described below, may be awarded in cash, equity or profit interests.
The arrangements in place with our Affiliates result in the sharing of economics between OMUS and each Affiliate’s key management personnel using a profit-sharing model, except for ICM, which uses a revenue share model as a result of a legacy economic arrangement that has not been restructured. Profit sharing affects two elements within our earnings: (i) the calculation of variable compensation and (ii) the level of each Affiliate’s equity or profit interests distribution to its employees. Variable compensation is the portion of earnings that is contractually allocated to Affiliate employees as a bonus pool, typically representing a fixed percentage of earnings before variable compensation, which is measured as revenues less fixed compensation and benefits and other operating and administrative expenses. Profits after variable compensation are shared between us and Affiliate key employee equity holders according to our respective equity or profit interests ownership. The sharing of profits in this manner ensures that the economic interests of Affiliate key employees and those of OMUS are aligned, both in terms of generating strong annual earnings as well as investing those earnings back into the business in order to generate growth over the long term. We view profit sharing as an attractive operating model, as it allows us to share in the benefits of operating leverage as the business grows, and ensures all equity and profit interests holders are incentivized to achieve that growth.
Equity or profit interests owned by Affiliate key employees are either awarded as part of their variable compensation arrangements, or alternatively, may have originally resulted from OMUS acquiring less than 100% of the Affiliate. Over time, Affiliate key employee-owned equity or profit interests are recycled from one generation of employee-owners to the next either by the next generation purchasing equity or profit interests directly from retiring principals, or by Affiliate key employees forgoing cash bonuses in exchange for the equivalent value in Affiliate equity or profit interests. The recycling of equity or profit interests is often facilitated by OMUS; see "—U.S. GAAP Results of Operations—U.S. GAAP Expenses—Compensation and Benefits Expense" for a further discussion.

How We Measure Performance
We manage our business in aggregate based on a single reportable segment, reflecting how our management assesses the performance of our business. Within our organizational framework, the same operational resources support multiple products and Affiliates and performance is evaluated at a consolidated level.
In measuring and monitoring the key components of our earnings, our management uses a non-GAAP financial measure, ENI, to evaluate the financial performance of, and to make operational decisions for, our business. We also use ENI to make resource allocation decisions, determine appropriate levels of investment or dividend payout, manage balance sheet leverage, determine Affiliate variable compensation and equity distributions, and incentivize management. It is an important measure in evaluating our financial performance because we believe it most accurately represents our operating performance and cash generation capability.
ENI differs from net income determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP as a result of both the reclassification of certain income statement items and the exclusion of certain non-cash or non-recurring income statement items. In particular, ENI excludes non-cash charges representing the changes in the value of Affiliate equity and profit interests held by Affiliate key employees, the results of discontinued operations which are no longer part of our business and that portion of consolidated Funds which are not attributable to our shareholders. ENI is also adjusted for amortization of acquisition-related contingent consideration and pre-acquisition retained equity with service components.
ENI revenue is primarily comprised of the fee revenues paid to us by our clients for our advisory services and earnings from our equity-accounted Affiliates. Revenue included within ENI differs from U.S. GAAP revenue in that it excludes amounts from consolidated Funds which are not attributable to our shareholders and includes our share of earnings from equity-accounted Affiliates.
ENI expenses are calculated to reflect all usual expenses from ongoing continuing operations attributable to our shareholders. Expenses included within ENI differ from U.S. GAAP expenses in that they exclude amounts from consolidated Funds which are not attributable to our shareholders, revaluations of Affiliate key employee owned equity and profit interests, amortization and impairment of acquired intangibles and other acquisition-related items, and certain other non-cash expenses.
“Non-controlling interests” is a concept under U.S. GAAP that identifies net components of revenues and expenses that are not attributable to our shareholders. For example the portion of the net income (loss) of any consolidated Fund that is attributable to the outside investors or clients of the consolidated Fund is included in “Non-controlling interests” in our Consolidated Financial Statement. Conversely, “controlling interests” is the portion of revenue or expense that is attributable to our shareholders.

(8)	Annualized revenue impact of net flows represents the difference between annualized management fees expected to be earned on new accounts and net assets contributed to existing accounts, less the annualized management fees lost on terminated accounts or net assets withdrawn from existing accounts, including equity-accounted Affiliates. The annualized management fees are calculated by multiplying the annual gross fee rate for the relevant account by the net assets gained in the account in the event of a positive flow, excluding any current or future market appreciation or depreciation, or the net assets lost in the account in the event of an outflow, excluding any current or future market appreciation or depreciation. For a further discussion of the uses and limitations of the annualized revenue impact of net flows, see "Assets Under Management" herein.

AUM flows and the annualized revenue impact of net flows
In the following tables, we present our asset flows and market appreciation/depreciation by asset class, client type and client location. We also present a key metric used to better understand our asset flows, the annualized revenue impact of net client cash flows. Annualized revenue impact of net flows represents the difference between annualized management fees expected to be earned on new accounts and net assets contributed to existing accounts, less the annualized management fees lost on terminated accounts or net assets withdrawn from existing accounts, including equity-accounted Affiliates. The annualized management fees are calculated by multiplying the annual gross fee rate for the relevant account by the net assets gained in the account in the event of a positive flow, excluding any current or future market appreciation or depreciation, or the net assets lost in the account in the event of an outflow, excluding any current or future market appreciation or depreciation.
The annualized revenue impact of net flows metric is designed to provide investors with a better indication of the potential financial impact of net client cash flows, however it has certain limitations. For instance, it does not include assumptions for the next twelve months' market appreciation or depreciation or investment performance associated with the assets gained or lost. Nor does it account for factors such as future client terminations or additional contributions or withdrawals over the next twelve months. Additionally, the basis points reported are fee rates based on the asset levels at the time of the transactions and do not consider the fact that client fee rates may change over the next twelve months.

U.S. GAAP Revenues
Our U.S. GAAP revenues principally consist of:

i.	management fees earned based on our overall weighted average fee rate charged to our clients and the level of assets under management;	

ii.	performance fees earned or management fee adjustments when our Affiliates’ investment performance over agreed time periods for certain clients has differed from pre-determined hurdles;	

iii.	other revenue, consisting primarily of marketing, distribution and joint venture income; and	

iv.	revenue from consolidated Funds, a portion of which is attributable to the holders of non-controlling interests in consolidated Funds.	
Management Fees
Our management fees are a function of the fee rates our Affiliates charge to their clients, which are typically expressed in basis points, and the levels of our assets under management.
Excluding assets managed by our equity-accounted Affiliates, average basis points earned on average assets under management were 37.5 bps for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 33.8 bps for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 , respectively. The greatest driver of increases or decreases in this average fee rate is changes in the mix of our assets under management caused by acquisitions, net inflows or outflows in certain asset classes or disproportionate market movements. The three and six months ended June 30, 2017 were positively impacted by the higher yield on alternative assets acquired in the Landmark transaction as well as a positive market environment and the effect of higher fee rates on asset inflows than on asset outflows.

(1)	Amounts shown excluding equity-accounted Affiliates are equivalent to ENI management fee revenue. (See “ENI Revenues”)	
Three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to three months ended June 30, 2016 : Management fees increase d $49.6 million , or 31.6% , from $157.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 to $206.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 . The increase was primarily attributable to positive markets and incremental revenue from the Landmark transaction. Average assets under management excluding equity-accounted Affiliates increased 18.2% , from $186.8 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2016 to $220.8 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2017 .
The increase in management fee revenue is also driven by the increases in basis point yields of our assets under management. Excluding equity-accounted Affiliates, the weighted average fee rate earned on our average assets under management was 37.5 basis points for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 33.8 basis points for the three months ended June 30, 2016 , with the increase driven mostly by the mix of flows and market movements in and out of assets with varying fee rates, as well as the higher fee-rate assets under management added as a result of the Landmark transaction. Compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016 , the combined share of higher fee global/non-U.S. equity and alternative assets, excluding equity-accounted Affiliates, increased by approximately 7% , to 58% of average assets, while the mix of U.S. equity and fixed income decreased approximately (7)% to 42% of average assets. This shift was driven by flows, as well as the addition of Landmark and the impact of market movements.
Six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to six months ended June 30, 2016 : Management fees increase d $95.7 million , or 31.2% , from $306.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to $402.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 . The increase was primarily attributable to positive markets and incremental revenue from the Landmark transaction. Average assets under management excluding equity-accounted Affiliates increase d 18.8% , from $182.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to $216.7 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2017 .

Excluding equity-accounted Affiliates, the weighted average fee rate earned on our average assets under management was 37.5 basis points for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 33.8 basis points for the six months ended June 30, 2016 , with the increase driven mostly by the addition of the higher-fee rate assets under management due to the Landmark transaction with a portion of the increase due to the mix of flows and market movements in and out of assets with varying fee rates. Compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016 , the combined share of higher fee global/non-U.S. equity and alternative assets, excluding equity-accounted Affiliates, increased by approximately 6% , to 57% of average assets, while the mix of U.S. equity and fixed income decreased approximately (6)% to 43% of average assets. This shift was driven by flows, as well as the addition of Landmark and the impact of market movements.
Performance Fees
Approximately $52.9 billion , or 24% of our AUM in consolidated Affiliates, are in accounts with incentive fee or carried interest features, where we participate in such a fee. Included below is a breakdown of our AUM from consolidated Affiliates, broken out between AUM subject to performance fees or carried interest and that subject only to management fees. Our alternative products subject to performance fees or carried interest earn these performance fees upon exceeding high-water mark performance thresholds or outperforming a hurdle rate. Conversely, the separate accounts/other products, which primarily earn management fees, are potentially subject to performance adjustment up or down based on investment performance versus benchmark. For each of these categories and in total, we have indicated in the table below the ratio of performance fees or carried interest relative to total management fees and performance fees (together, total fees).

In aggregate, we recognized $11.4 million in performance fees in the six months ended June 30, 2017 . Included in this number were $(6.6) million of negative performance fees, calculated in total by each Fund that had net negative performance fees on a year-to-date basis.  The negative performance fee generally represents performance adjustments in certain sub-advisory accounts. Gross performance fees earned, excluding performance fees at equity-accounted Affiliates, were 2.8% of total fees for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and (0.3)% of total fees for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . Performance fees are typically shared with our Affiliate key employees through various contractual compensation and profit-sharing arrangements, as illustrated in the following table:

																
 	Three Months Ended June 30,	 	Six Months Ended June 30,	
($ in millions)	2017	 	2016	 	2017	 	2016

(1)	Net performance fees are shown after the effect of contractual variable compensation and distributions to key employees of the Affiliates and represent the amount of the performance fee directly attributable to our shareholders.	

(2)	Reflects net performance fees as a percentage of gross performance fees. Net performance fees can be greater than gross performance fees when the Affiliate employees’ share of the negative performance fees are greater than the corresponding percentages of the positive fees earned.	

(3)	Total fees, comprised of management fees and performance fees, excluding the effect of consolidated Funds, were $217.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 , and $156.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 . Total fees were $413.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and $305.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 .	
Three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to three months ended June 30, 2016 : Performance fees increase d $12.0 million , from $(0.8) million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 to $11.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 . Performance fees can be variable and are contractually triggered based on investment performance results over agreed upon time periods. The increase was primarily attributable to a performance fee earned on an alternative product.

Six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to six months ended June 30, 2016 : Performance fees increase d $12.2 million , from $(0.8) million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to $11.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 .  Performance fees can be variable and are contractually triggered based on investment performance results over agreed upon time periods. The increase was primarily attributable to a performance fee earned on an alternative product in the second quarter.
The liquidation of an alternative product may result in the recognition of a performance fee. With respect to liquidations likely to occur in the near term, we do not expect to receive any net performance fees that would be material to our operating results. These projections are based on market conditions and investment performance as of June 30, 2017 .
Other Revenue
Three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to three months ended June 30, 2016 : Other revenue increase d $0.2 million , or 100.0% , from $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 to $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 . The increase was primarily attributable to consulting services offered by an Affiliate in 2017 .

The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily attributable to consulting services offered by an Affiliate in 2017 .
U.S. GAAP Expenses
Our U.S. GAAP expenses principally consist of:

i.	compensation paid to our investment professionals and other employees, including base salary, benefits, sales-based compensation, variable compensation, Affiliate distributions, revaluation of key employee owned Affiliate equity and profit interests, and the amortization of acquisition-related consideration and pre-acquisition employee equity;	

ii.	general and administrative expenses;	

iii.	amortization of acquired intangible assets;	

iv.	depreciation and amortization charges; and	

v.	expenses of consolidated Funds, the net cost of which is attributable to the holders of non-controlling interests.	
Compensation and Benefits Expense
Our most significant category of expense is compensation and benefits awarded to our and our Affiliates’ employees. The following table presents the components of U.S. GAAP compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 :

																
 	Three Months Ended June 30,	 	Six Months Ended June 30,	
($ in millions)	2017	 	2016	 	2017	 	2016	
Fixed compensation and benefits (1)	$	41.5		 	$	34.0		 	$	84.3		 	$	69.4		
Sales-based compensation (2)	4.5		 	4.4		 	8.9		 	9.2		
Variable compensation (3)	69.9		 	41.0		 	121.1		 	78.4		
Affiliate key employee distributions (4)	16.5		 	9.2		 	31.4		 	17.5		
Non-cash Affiliate key employee equity revaluations (5)	23.3		 	(1.1	)	 	35.2		 	(2.4	)	
Acquisition-related consideration and pre-acquisition employee equity (6)	17.7		 	—		 	35.3		 	—		
Total U.S. GAAP compensation and benefits expense	$	173.4		 	$	87.5		 	$	316.2		 	$	172.1		

		

		
(1)	Fixed compensation and benefits include base salaries, payroll taxes and the cost of benefit programs provided. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , $41.0 million and $83.8 million , respectively, of fixed compensation and benefits (of the $41.5 million and $84.3 million above) is included within economic net income, which excludes the compensation and benefits associated with the CEO transition costs.	

(2)	Sales-based compensation is paid to us and our Affiliates’ sales and distribution teams and represents compensation earned by our sales professionals, paid over a multi-year period, related to revenue earned on new sales. Its variability is based upon the structure of sales-based compensation due on inflows of assets under management in both current and prior periods.

(3)	Variable compensation is contractually set and calculated individually at each Affiliate, plus Center bonuses. Variable compensation is usually awarded based on a contractual percentage of each Affiliate’s ENI profits before variable compensation and may be paid in the form of cash or non-cash Affiliate equity or profit interests. In Affiliates with an agreed split of performance fees between Affiliate employees and OMAM, the Affiliates’ share of performance fees is allocated entirely to variable compensation. Center variable compensation includes cash and OMAM equity. Non-cash variable compensation awards typically vest over several years and are recognized as compensation expense over that service period. The variable compensation ratio at each Affiliate, calculated as variable compensation divided by ENI earnings before variable compensation, will typically be between 25% and 35%.	

																
 	Three Months Ended June 30,	 	Six Months Ended June 30,	
($ in millions)	2017	 	2016	 	2017	 	2016	
Cash variable compensation	$	60.4		 	$	34.5		 	$	105.4		 	$	65.6		
Non-cash equity-based award amortization	9.5		 	6.5		 	15.7		 	12.8		
Total variable compensation (a)	$	69.9		 	$	41.0		 	$	121.1		 	$	78.4		

		

		
(a)	For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , $61.1 million and $112.3 million , respectively, of variable compensation expense (of the $69.9 million and $121.1 million above) is included within economic net income, which excludes the variable compensation associated with the CEO transition costs.	

(4)	Affiliate key employee distributions represent the share of Affiliate profits after variable compensation that is attributable to Affiliate key employee equity and profit interests holders, according to their ownership interests. The Affiliate key employee distribution ratio at each Affiliate is calculated as Affiliate key employee distributions divided by ENI operating earnings at that Affiliate. At certain Affiliates, OMUS is entitled to an initial preference over profits after variable compensation, structured such that before a preference threshold is reached, there would be no required key employee distributions, whereas for profits above the threshold the key employee distribution amount would be calculated based on the key employee ownership percentages, which range from approximately 15% to 40% at our consolidated Affiliates.	

(5)	Non-cash Affiliate key employee equity revaluations represent changes in the value of Affiliate equity and profit interests held by Affiliate key employees. These ownership interests may in certain circumstances be repurchased by OMUS at a value based on a pre-determined fixed multiple of trailing earnings and as such this value is carried on our balance sheet as a liability. However, any equity or profit interests repurchased by OMUS can be used to fund a portion of future variable compensation awards, resulting in savings in cash variable compensation that offset the negative cash effect of repurchasing the equity. Our Affiliate equity and profit interest plans have been designed to ensure OMUS is not required to repurchase more equity than we can reasonably recycle through variable compensation awards in any given twelve month period. OMUS may also choose to retain repurchased Affiliate equity or profit interests, entitling us to an additional share of future Affiliate earnings that represents an unrecognized economic asset to us.	

(6)	Acquisition-related consideration and pre-acquisition employee equity represents the amortization of acquisition-related contingent consideration created as a result of the Landmark transaction. It also includes the value of employee equity owned pre-acquisition. These items have been included in U.S. GAAP compensation expense as a result of ongoing service requirements for employee recipients.

Three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to three months ended June 30, 2016 : Compensation and benefits expense increase d $85.9 million , or 98.2% , from $87.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 to $173.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 .  Fixed compensation and benefits increased $7.5 million , or 22.1% , from $34.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 to $41.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 . This reflects the effect of the Landmark acquisition as well as new hires and annual cost of living increases. Variable compensation increased $28.9 million , or 70.5% , from $41.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 to $69.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 , due to the higher pre-variable compensation earnings, in part reflecting the effect of the Landmark transaction. Additionally, $8.8 million of the increase is attributable to CEO transition costs. Sales-based compensation increased $0.1 million , or 2.3% , from $4.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 to $4.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 , as a result of the structure of sales-based compensation due from the timing of asset inflows triggering sales-based compensation in both current and prior periods. Affiliate key employee distributions increased $7.3 million , or 79.3% , from $9.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 to $16.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 as a result of higher underlying operating earnings and the effect of the Landmark transaction, as Landmark employees own 40% of their business. Revaluations of Affiliate equity increased by $24.4 million reflecting formulaic revaluations of key employee ownership at certain Affiliates, as the value of Affiliate equity decreased $(1.1) million in the three months ended June 30, 2016 and increased $23.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2017 . Acquisition-related consideration and pre-acquisition equity was $17.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and represents amortization of the value of contingent consideration and employee-owned equity, related to Landmark, recorded as compensation under U.S. GAAP due to certain service requirements associated with the arrangements. The increase in compensation resulting from the amortization of acquisition-related consideration and pre-acquisition employee equity, as well as the non-cash Affiliate key employee equity revaluations and increased variable compensation, all of which were impacted by the Landmark transaction, were the primary reasons for the reduction of our U.S. GAAP operating margin.

Six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to six months ended June 30, 2016 : Compensation and benefits expense increase d $144.1 million , or 83.7% , from $172.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to $316.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 . Fixed compensation and benefits increased $14.9 million , or 21.5% , from $69.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to $84.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 . This reflects annual cost of living increases and higher compensation costs as a result of the Landmark acquisition. Variable compensation increased $42.7 million , or 54.5% , from $78.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to $121.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 . The increase was attributable to higher pre-variable compensation earnings, including the acquisition of Landmark, which in turn was primarily attributable to increases in management fee revenue. Additionally, $8.8 million of the increase is attributable to CEO transition costs incurred in the second quarter of 2017. Sales-based compensation decreased $(0.3) million , or (3.3)% , from $9.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to $8.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , as a result of the structure of sales-based compensation due from the timing of asset inflows triggering sales-based compensation in both current and prior periods. Affiliate key employee distributions increased $13.9 million , or 79.4% , from $17.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to $31.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 primarily as a result of higher earnings before Affiliate key employee distributions at the consolidated Affiliates, combined with the effect of the Landmark transaction, where employees retain a 40% ownership position. Revaluations of Affiliate equity increased by $37.6 million , reflecting revaluations of key employee ownership at certain Affiliates, as the value of Affiliate equity decreased $(2.4) million in the six months ended June 30, 2016 and increased $35.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2017 . Acquisition-related consideration and pre-acquisition equity was $35.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and represents amortization of the value of contingent consideration and employee-owned equity, related to Landmark, recorded as compensation under U.S. GAAP due to certain service requirements associated with the arrangements. The increase in compensation resulting from the amortization of acquisition-related consideration and pre-acquisition employee equity, as well as the non-cash Affiliate key employee equity revaluations and increased variable compensation, all of which were impacted by the Landmark transaction, were the primary reasons for the reduction of our U.S. GAAP operating margin.

U.S. GAAP Other Non-Operating Items of Income and Expense
Other non-operating items of income and expense consist of:

i.	investment income;	

ii.	interest income; and	

iii.	interest expense.	
Investment Income
Three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to three months ended June 30, 2016 : Investment income increased $0.5 million , or 11.1% , from $4.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 to $5.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 , primarily due to higher returns on seed capital investments following the purchase of approximately $40 million in seed capital from OM plc in September 2016.

Table of Contents

Six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to six months ended June 30, 2016 : Investment income increased $3.1 million , or 38.8% , from $8.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to $11.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 . In the first quarter of 2017, an Affiliate of the Company sold a cost-basis investment in timber and timberlands for a net gain of $1.7 million. The remainder of the increase is primarily due to gains on seed investments offset by lower income from equity-accounted Affiliates.
Interest Income

Three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to three months ended June 30, 2016 : Interest income increase d $0.3 million , from $0.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 to $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 . The increase was due to higher cash balances in the quarter.

Six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to six months ended June 30, 2016 : Interest income increase d $0.4 million , from $0.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 . The increase was due to higher average cash balances in 2017.
Interest Expense
Three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to three months ended June 30, 2016 : Interest expense increased $5.4 million , from $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 to $5.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 , reflecting the issuance of $400 million in long-term debt in July 2016.
Six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to six months ended June 30, 2016 : Interest expense increased $10.8 million , from $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to $11.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , reflecting the issuance of $400 million in long-term debt in July 2016.
U.S. GAAP Income Tax Expense
Our effective tax rate has been impacted primarily by adjustments to reserves for uncertain tax positions, adjustments to the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, the mix of income earned in the United States versus lower-taxed foreign jurisdictions and benefits from intercompany financing arrangements. Our effective tax rate could be impacted in the future by these items as well as changes in tax laws and regulations in jurisdictions in which we operate.
Three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to three months ended June 30, 2016 : Income tax expense decreased $(12.1) million , or (92.4)% , from $13.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 to $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 . The effective tax rate for the quarter decreased due to decreases in income from continuing operations before tax and the benefit of the intercompany interest expense which has a more favorable impact on the effective tax rate due to the decrease in income from continuing operations before tax.
Six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to six months ended June 30, 2016 : Income tax expense decreased $(19.9) million , or (75.1)% , from $26.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to $6.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 . The decrease relates primarily to decreases in income from continuing operations before tax and decreases in the adjustments to uncertain tax positions. In 2016 the adjustment for uncertain tax positions increased the income tax expense and in 2017 a true-up adjustment relating to accrued interest on uncertain tax positions decreased income tax expense. The effective tax rate decreased to 16.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 from 28.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 due to decreases in income from continuing operations before tax and the benefit of the intercompany interest expense which has a more favorable impact on the effective tax rate due to the decrease in income from continuing operations before tax.

On July 13, 2017, (the “Effective Date”) the UK published revised draft legislation to be included in the U.K. Finance Bill (No. 2) 2017 (the “Finance Bill”) that would impact our tax position as of the Effective Date. The legislation is expected to receive Royal Assent later in the year and there is still scope for changes to be made as the Finance Bill is finalized. If this legislation is enacted as proposed, our UK tax liability is expected to increase by approximately $10 million annually. While we continue to explore alternative structures that comply with these new tax rules, given the Effective Date, we expect to record the incremental U.K. tax as of that date. In the event that the proposed legislation is enacted as proposed, the impact to our 2017 GAAP EPS would be approximately $(0.02) per share.
U.S. GAAP Consolidated Funds
Three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to three months ended June 30, 2016 : Funds consolidation for the three months ended June 30, 2017 reflected consolidated Funds’ revenue of $0.5 million , consolidated Funds’ expense of $0.3 million and consolidated Funds’ investment gain of $2.3 million . We did not consolidate any Funds in the three months ended June 30, 2016 , therefore there was no income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests of consolidated Funds in that period.
Six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to six months ended June 30, 2016 : Funds consolidation for the six months ended June 30, 2017 reflected consolidated Funds’ revenue of $0.7 million , consolidated Funds’ expense of $0.5 million and consolidated Funds’ investment gain of $6.5 million . We did not consolidate any funds in the six months ended June 30, 2016 , therefore there was no income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests of consolidated Funds in that period.
Discontinued Operations
Three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to three months ended June 30, 2016 : All of our discontinued operations were wound down, sold, or transferred to OM plc prior to 2016 and there were no results from discontinued operations in either the three months ended June 30, 2016 or June 30, 2017 . Discontinued operations consisted of a gain on disposal of $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 , net of tax, representing incremental gains from disposals in that period. There was no gain or loss on disposal in the three months ended June 30, 2017 .
Six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to six months ended June 30, 2016 : All of our discontinued operations were wound down, sold, or transferred to OM plc prior to 2016 and there were no results from discontinued operations in either the six months ended June 30, 2016 or June 30, 2017 . Discontinued operations consisted of a gain on disposal of $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and a loss on disposal of $(0.1) million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , in each case net of tax, representing incremental gains (losses) from disposals in each period. Gains and losses on disposal of discontinued operations represent our rights or obligations related to contractual residual interests in previously discontinued operations.

Effects of Inflation
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , inflation did not have a material effect on our consolidated results of operations.
Non-GAAP Supplemental Performance Measure — Economic Net Income
As supplemental information, we provide a non-GAAP performance measure that we refer to as economic net income, or ENI, which represents our management’s view of the underlying economic earnings generated by us. We define economic net income as ENI revenue less (i) ENI operating expenses, (ii) variable compensation, (iii) key employee distributions, (iv) net interest and (v) taxes, each as further discussed in this section. ENI adjustments to U.S. GAAP include both reclassifications of U.S. GAAP revenue and expense items, as well as adjustments to U.S. GAAP results, primarily to exclude non-cash, non-economic expenses, or to reflect cash benefits not recognized under U.S. GAAP.
ENI is an important measure to investors because it is used by the Company to make resource allocation decisions, determine appropriate levels of investment or dividend payout, manage balance sheet leverage, determine Affiliate variable compensation and equity distributions, and incentivize management. It is also an important measure because it assists management in evaluating our operating performance and is presented in a way that most closely reflects the key elements of our profit share operating model with our Affiliates. For a further discussion of how we use ENI and why ENI is useful to investors, see “—Overview—How We Measure Performance.” Please note the following refinements to our definition of economic net income undertaken in light of transactions which closed in the third quarter of 2016. Items (iv) and (v) reflect the breakout of line items which have always been part of our definition of ENI that have now become more meaningful in light of our purchase of seed capital from OM plc on September 15, 2016 and the acquisition of Landmark Partners as of August 18, 2016. We have also added additional explanatory language to item (ii) in light of the treatment of a portion of the purchase price and non-controlling interests from Landmark Partners as compensation for U.S. GAAP purposes.
To calculate economic net income, we re-categorize certain line items on our Statement of Operations to reflect the following:

•	We exclude the effect of Funds consolidation by removing the portion of Fund revenues, expenses and investment return which were not attributable to our shareholders.	

•	We include within management fee revenue any fees paid to Affiliates by consolidated Funds, which are viewed as investment income under U.S. GAAP.	

•	We include our share of earnings from equity-accounted Affiliates within other income in ENI revenue, rather than investment income.	

51

Table of Contents

•	We treat sales-based compensation as a general and administrative expense, rather than part of fixed compensation and benefits.	

•	We identify separately from operating expenses variable compensation and Affiliate key employee distributions, which represent Affiliate earnings shared with Affiliate key employees.	
We also make the following adjustments to U.S. GAAP results to more closely reflect our economic results:

i.	We exclude non-cash expenses representing changes in the value of Affiliate equity and profit interests held by Affiliate key employees. These ownership interests may in certain circumstances be repurchased by OMUS at a value based on a pre-determined fixed multiple of trailing earnings and as such this value is carried on our balance sheet as a liability. Non-cash movements in the value of this liability are treated as compensation expense under U.S. GAAP. However, any equity or profit interests repurchased by OMUS can be used to fund a portion of future variable compensation awards, resulting in savings in cash variable compensation that offset the negative cash effect of repurchasing the equity. Our Affiliate equity and profit interest plans have been designed to ensure OMUS is never required to repurchase more equity than we can reasonably recycle through variable compensation awards in any given twelve month period. OMUS may also choose to retain repurchased Affiliate equity or profit interests, entitling us to an additional share of future Affiliate earnings that represents an unrecognized economic asset to us.	

ii.	We exclude non-cash amortization or impairment expenses related to acquired goodwill and other intangibles as these are non-cash charges that do not result in an outflow of tangible economic benefits from the business. We also exclude the amortization of acquisition-related contingent consideration, as well as the value of employee equity owned pre-acquisition, as occurred as a result of the Landmark transaction, where such items have been included in compensation expense as a result of ongoing service requirements for certain employees.	

iii.	We exclude capital transaction costs, including the costs of raising debt or equity, gains or losses realized as a result of redeeming debt or equity and direct incremental costs associated with acquisitions of businesses or assets.	

iv.	We exclude seed capital and co-investment gains, losses and related financing costs. The net returns on these investments are considered and presented separately from ENI because ENI is primarily a measure of our earnings from managing client assets, which therefore differs from earnings generated by our investments in Affiliate products, which can be variable from period to period.	

v.	We include cash tax benefits associated with deductions allowed for acquired intangibles and goodwill that may not be recognized or have timing differences compared to U.S. GAAP.	

vi.	We exclude the results of discontinued operations attributable to controlling interests since they are not part of our ongoing business, and restructuring costs incurred in continuing operations which represent an exit from a distinct product or line of business.	

vii.	We exclude deferred tax resulting from changes in tax law and expiration of statutes, adjustments for uncertain tax positions, deferred tax attributable to intangible assets and other unusual items not related to current operating results to reflect ENI tax normalization.	
We also adjust our income tax expense to reflect any tax impact of our ENI adjustments.

Limitations of Economic Net Income
Economic net income is the key measure our management uses to evaluate the financial performance of, and make operational decisions for, our business. Economic net income is not audited and is not a substitute for net income or other performance measures that are derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Furthermore, our calculation of economic net income may differ from similarly titled measures provided by other companies.
Because the calculation of economic net income excludes certain ongoing expenses, including amortization expense and certain compensation costs, it has certain material limitations and should not be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for U.S. GAAP measures of earnings.

ENI Operating Expenses
The largest difference between U.S. GAAP operating expense and ENI operating expense (excluding the impact of Funds consolidation) relates to compensation. As shown in the following reconciliation, we exclude the impact of key employee equity revaluations. We also exclude the amortization of contingent purchase price and pre-acquisition equity owned by employees, both with a service requirement, associated with the Landmark acquisition. Variable compensation and Affiliate key employee distributions are also segregated out of U.S. GAAP operating expense in order to align with the manner in which these items are contractually calculated at the Affiliate level.

Key Non-GAAP Operating Metrics
The following table shows our key non-GAAP operating metrics for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 . We present these metrics because they are the measures our management uses to evaluate the profitability of our business and are useful to investors because they represent the key drivers and measures of economic performance within our business model. Please see the footnotes below for an explanation of each ratio, its usefulness in measuring the economics and operating performance of our business, and a reference to the most closely related U.S. GAAP measure:

(a)	Restructuring costs in the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 are comprised of $0.5 million of fixed compensation and benefits and $8.8 million of variable compensation associated with the CEO transition.	

(b)	For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, $69.9 million and $121.1 million, respectively, of variable compensation expense is included within U.S. GAAP net income, which includes variable compensation associated with the CEO transition costs presented in “Restructuring costs” in this table.	

(2)	The ENI operating margin, which is calculated before Affiliate key employee distributions, is used by management and is useful to investors to evaluate the overall operating margin of the business without regard to our various ownership levels at each of the Affiliates. The ENI operating margin is most comparable to our U.S. GAAP operating margin. Our U.S. GAAP operating margin, excluding the effect of consolidated Funds, is 5.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 , 28.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 , 8.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 27.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 .	
The ENI operating margin is important because it gives investors an understanding of the profitability of the total business relative to revenue, irrespective of the ownership position which OMAM has in each of its Affiliates. Management and investors use this ratio when comparing our profitability relative to our peer group and evaluating our ability to manage the cost structure and profitability of our business under different operating environments.

(3)	ENI management fee revenue corresponds to U.S. GAAP management fee revenue.	

(4)	The ENI operating expense ratio is used by management and is useful to investors to evaluate the level of operating expense as measured against our recurring management fee revenue. We have provided this ratio

since many operating expenses, including fixed compensation & benefits and general and administrative expense, are generally linked to the overall size of the business. We track this ratio as a key measure of scale economies at OMAM because in our profit sharing economic model, scale benefits both the Affiliate employees and OMAM shareholders. The ENI operating expense ratio is most comparable to the U.S. GAAP operating expense / management fee revenue ratio.

(5)	ENI earnings before variable compensation is calculated as ENI revenue, less ENI operating expense.	

(6)	The ENI variable compensation ratio is used by management and is useful to investors to evaluate consolidated variable compensation as measured against our ENI earnings before variable compensation. Variable compensation is contractually set and calculated individually at each Affiliate, plus Center bonuses. Variable compensation is usually awarded based on a contractual percentage of each Affiliate’s ENI earnings before variable compensation and may be paid in the form of cash or non-cash Affiliate equity or profit interests. Center variable compensation includes cash and OMAM equity. Non-cash variable compensation awards typically vest over several years and are recognized as compensation expense over that service period. The variable compensation ratio at each Affiliate, calculated as variable compensation divided by ENI earnings before variable compensation, will typically be between 25% and 35%. The ENI variable compensation ratio is most comparable to the U.S. GAAP variable compensation ratio.	

(7)	The ENI Affiliate key employee distribution ratio is used by management and is useful to investors to evaluate Affiliate key employee distributions as measured against our ENI operating earnings. Affiliate key employee distributions represent the share of Affiliate profits after variable compensation that is attributable to Affiliate key employee equity and profit interests holders, according to their ownership interests. The Affiliate key employee distribution ratio at each Affiliate is calculated as Affiliate key employee distributions divided by ENI operating earnings at that Affiliate. At certain Affiliates, OMUS is entitled to an initial preference over profits after variable compensation, structured such that before a preference threshold is reached, there would be no required key employee distributions, whereas for profits above the threshold the key employee distribution amount would be calculated based on the key employee ownership percentages, which range from approximately 15% to 40% at our consolidated Affiliates. The ENI Affiliate key employee distributions ratio is most comparable to the U.S. GAAP Affiliate key employee distributions ratio.

(a)	Other ENI interest expense exclusions represent cost of financing on seed capital and co-investments.	

(b)	ENI earnings after Affiliate key employee distributions is calculated as ENI operating income (ENI revenue, less ENI operating expense, less ENI variable compensation), less Affiliate key employee distributions. Refer to “—Key Non-GAAP Operating Metrics” for a reconciliation from U.S. GAAP operating income (loss) to ENI earnings after Affiliate key employee distributions.	

(2)	Taxed at U.S. Federal and State statutory rate of 40.2%	

(3)	The economic net income effective tax rate is calculated by dividing the tax on economic net income by pre-tax economic net income.	
On July 13, 2017, or the Effective Date, the UK published revised draft legislation to be included in the U.K. Finance Bill (No. 2) 2017, or the Finance Bill, that would impact our tax position as of the Effective Date. The legislation is expected to receive Royal Assent later in the year and there is still scope for changes to be made as the Finance Bill is finalized. If this legislation is enacted as proposed, our UK tax liability is expected to increase by approximately $10 million annually. While we continue to explore alternative structures that comply with these new tax rules, given the Effective Date, we expect to record the incremental U.K. tax as of that date. In the event that the proposed legislation is enacted as proposed, the impact to our 2017 ENI EPS would be approximately $(0.03) per share.

Capital Resources and Liquidity
Supplemental Liquidity Measure — Adjusted EBITDA
As supplemental information, we provide information regarding Adjusted EBITDA, which we define as economic net income before net interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP liquidity measure that we provide in addition to, but not as a substitute for, cash flows from operating activities. It should be noted that our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be consistent with Adjusted EBITDA as calculated by other companies. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is a useful liquidity metric because it indicates our ability to make further investments in our business, service debt and meet working capital requirements. It is also encapsulated in our line of credit as part of our liquidity covenants.

The following table reconciles our U.S. GAAP net income attributable to controlling interests to EBITDA to Adjusted EBITDA to economic net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 .

Limitations of Adjusted EBITDA
As a non-GAAP, unaudited liquidity measure and derivation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA has certain material limitations. It does not include cash costs associated with capital transactions and excludes certain U.S. GAAP expenses that fall outside the definition of EBITDA. Each of these categories of expense represents costs to us of doing business, and therefore any measure that excludes any or all of these categories of expense has material limitations.
Cash Flows
The following table summarizes certain key financial data relating to cash flows. All amounts presented exclude consolidated Funds:

(2)	Cash flow data shown only includes cash flows from continuing operations.	
Comparison for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016
Net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations increased $26.9 million , from net cash provided of $33.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to net cash provided of $60.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , driven primarily by higher amortization and revaluation of non-cash compensation awards for the six months ended June 30, 2017 . Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities of continuing operations increased $60.9 million , from $12.9 million used for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to $48.0 million provided for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , driven primarily by the sale of a cost basis investment at an Affiliate. Net cash used in financing activities of continuing operations increase d $34.8 million , from $92.4 million used for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to $127.2 million used for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , due to higher payments to OM plc under the DTA Deed, and increased share repurchases, offset by the repayment of third party borrowings which did not recur in the six months ended June 30, 2017 .
Future Capital Needs
We believe that our available cash and cash equivalents to be generated from operations, supplemented by short-term and long-term financing, as necessary, will be sufficient to fund current operations and capital requirements for at least the next twelve months, including our obligations under the amended Deferred Tax Asset Deed, as well as our day-to-day operations and future investment requirements. Refer to Note 7, Related Party Transactions, for additional information on the amended agreements with OM plc. Our ability to secure short-term and long-term financing in the future will depend on several factors, including our future profitability, our relative levels of debt and equity and the overall condition of the credit markets.

Revolving Credit Facility
On October 15, 2014, we entered into a revolving credit facility with Citibank, as administrative agent and issuing bank, and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated as joint lead arrangers and joint book runners (as amended, the “Credit Facility”). Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility, we may obtain loans on a revolving credit basis and procure the issuance of letters of credit in an aggregate amount at any time outstanding not in excess of $350 million.  The Credit Facility has a maturity date of October 15, 2019.  Borrowings under the facility bear interest, at our option, at either the per annum rate equal to (a) the greatest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5% and (iii) the one month Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 1.0%, plus, in each case an additional amount ranging from 0.25% to 1.00%, with such additional amount based from time to time on the ratio of our total consolidated indebtedness to Adjusted EBITDA (a “Leverage Ratio”) until either Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s assigned an initial rating to our senior, unsecured long-term indebtedness for borrowed money that was not subject to credit enhancement, or our credit rating, at which time such additional amount became based on our credit rating or (b) the London interbank offered rate for a period, at our election, equal to one, two, three or six months plus an additional amount ranging from 1.25% to 2.00%, with such additional amount based from time to time on our Leverage Ratio until we were assigned a credit rating, at which time such additional amount became based on our credit rating. In addition, we are charged a commitment fee based on the average daily unused portion of the revolving credit facility at a per annum rate ranging from 0.20% to 0.50%, with such amount being based from time to time on our Leverage Ratio until we were assigned a credit rating, at which time such amount became based on our credit rating.
Under the Credit Facility, the ratio of third-party borrowings to trailing twelve months Adjusted EBITDA cannot exceed 3.0x, and the Interest Coverage Ratio must not be less than 4.0x.  At June 30, 2017 , our ratio of third-party borrowings to trailing twelve months Adjusted EBITDA was 1.67 x and our Interest Coverage Ratio was 11x .
In July 2016, Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. and Standard & Poor’s each assigned an initial investment-grade rating to the our senior, unsecured long-term indebtedness. As a result of the assignment of the credit ratings, our interest rate on outstanding borrowings was set at LIBOR + 1.50% and the commitment fee on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility was set at 0.25%. Prior to the assignment of the credit ratings, our interest rate on outstanding borrowings was based on our Leverage Ratio and was set at LIBOR + 1.25% and the commitment fee on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility was set at 0.20%.
Long-term bonds
In July 2016, we issued $275.0 million of 4.80% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) and $125.0 million of 5.125% Senior Notes due 2031 (the “2031 Notes”). We used the net proceeds of these offerings to finance the acquisition of Landmark in August 2016, purchase seed capital from OM plc, settle a Treasury rate lock contract and pay down the balance of the Revolving Credit Facility.

4.80% Senior Notes Due July 2026
The $275.0 million 2026 Notes were sold at a discount of $(0.5) million and we incurred debt issuance costs of $(3.0) million , which are being amortized to interest expense over the ten-year term. The 2026 Notes can be redeemed at any time prior to the scheduled maturity in part or in aggregate, at the greater of 100% of the principal amount at that time or the sum of the remaining scheduled payments discounted at the treasury rate (as defined) plus 0.5% , together with any related accrued and unpaid interest.
5.125% Senior Notes Due August 2031
The $125.0 million 2031 Notes incurred debt issuance costs of $(4.3) million , which are being amortized to interest expense over the fifteen-year term. The 2031 Notes can be redeemed at any time, on or after August 1, 2019 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount together with any related accrued and unpaid interest.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
There have been no additional updates or changes to our critical accounting policies from those disclosed as of December 31, 2016 in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 22, 2017.
Revenue from contracts with customers
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-9, Revenue from Contracts with Customers . ASU 2014-9 modifies existing U.S. GAAP revenue recognition standards to more closely align with international accounting standards. Additionally, the guidance requires improved disclosures around the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue recognized. Under the standard, a company is required to (a) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (b) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (c) determine the transaction price, (d) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (e) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. Since issuing the standard, the FASB has issued several amendments, including clarifying certain components of the standard as well as delaying the mandatory adoption date of ASU 2014-9 for public entities to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. ASU 2014-9, as amended, will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018.
The guidance permits two methods of adoption; a full retrospective adoption will apply the standard to each prior reporting period presented and a modified retrospective adoption, where the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance is recognized at the date of initial application. The Company currently anticipates adopting the standard using the modified retrospective method.
While the Company does not currently anticipate that the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will result in a material change to the timing of when revenue is recognized, the Company is continuing to evaluate individual contracts under the standard. A series of position papers documenting the Company’s accounting conclusions pursuant to the standard have been drafted, which evaluate and incorporate applicable industry guidance, including Asset Management Revenue Recognition Task Force papers published by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The Company is continuing to analyze, evaluate and document individual contracts within the context of ASU 2014-09 and the Company anticipates this phase will be substantially complete by October 2017.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Market Risk
Our exposure to market risk is directly related to the role of our Affiliates as asset managers. Substantially all of our investment management revenues are derived from our Affiliates’ agreements with their clients. Under these agreements, the revenues we receive are based on the value of our assets under management or the investment performance on client accounts for which we earn performance fees. Accordingly, our revenues and net income may decline as a result of our assets under management decreasing due to depreciation of our investment portfolios. In addition, such depreciation could cause our clients to withdraw their funds in favor of investments offering higher returns or lower risk, which would cause our revenues and net income to decline further.
Our model for assessing the impact of market risk on our results uses June 30, 2017 ending AUM and management fee rates as the basis for management fee revenue calculations. With respect to performance fee revenue, we assume that relative investment performance remains the same as it was on June 30, 2017 . Therefore, market-driven changes in performance fees, which are typically based on relative performance versus market indices, reflect changes in the underlying AUM used in the calculation rather than differences in relative performance as a result of a changed market environment. The basis for the analysis is performance fees earned for the twelve months ended June 30, 2017 .
Our profit sharing economic structure results in a sharing of market risk between us and our employees. Approximately 50% of our ENI cost structure is variable, representing variable compensation and Affiliate key employee distributions. These variable expenses generally are linked in a formulaic manner to the profitability of the business after covering operating expenses, which include base compensation and benefits, general and administrative expenses, and depreciation and amortization. In modeling the impact of market risk, we assume that these operating expenses remain unchanged, but the resulting impact on profit driven by increases or decreases in revenue will change variable compensation and Affiliate key employee distributions in line with their formulaic calculations. Any change in pre-tax profit is tax-effected at our statutory combined state and federal rate of 40.2% to calculate profit after tax.
The value of our assets under management was $258.8 billion as of June 30, 2017 . A 10% increase or decrease in the value of our assets under management, if proportionally distributed over all of our investment strategies, asset classes and client relationships, would cause an annualized increase or decrease in our gross management fee revenues of approximately $98.6 million based on our current weighted average fee rate of approximately 38 basis points, including equity-accounted Affiliates. Approximately $64.0 billion, or 25%, of our AUM, including equity-accounted Affiliates, are in accounts subject to performance fees. Of these assets, approximately 75% are in accounts for which performance fees, or management fee adjustments, are calculated based on investment return that differs from the relative benchmark returns. Assuming the market change does not impact our relative performance, a 10% increase or decrease in AUM would have approximately a $1.5 million impact to our gross performance fees based on our trailing twelve month performance fees of $14.8 million as of June 30, 2017 . The combined impact on our management fees and performance fees would have a direct impact on our earnings and result in an annual change of approximately $31.6 million in our post-tax economic net income, given our current cost structure and operating model.
Equity market risk, interest rate risk, and foreign currency risk are the market risks that could have the greatest impact on our management fees, performance fees and our business profitability. Impacts on our management and performance fees can be calculated based on the percentage of AUM constituting equity investments, fixed income investments, or foreign currency denominated investments, respectively, multiplied by the relevant weighted average management fee and performance fee attributable to that asset class.

•	Our equity markets-based AUM includes U.S. equities (including small cap through large cap securities and substantially value or blended investment styles; excluding REITS) and global/non-U.S. equities (including global, non-U.S. and emerging markets securities). A 10% increase or decrease in equity markets would cause our $194.2 billion of equity assets under management to increase or decrease by $19.4 billion, resulting in a	

66

Table of Contents

change in annualized management fee revenue of $67.7 million and an annual change in post-tax economic net income of approximately $22.6 million, given our current cost structure, operating model, and weighted average equity fee rates of 35 basis points at the mix of strategies as of June 30, 2017 . Approximately $45.5 billion, or 24%, of our equity markets-based AUM are in accounts subject to performance fees. Of these assets, approximately 99% are in accounts for which performance fees, or management fee adjustments, are calculated based on investment return that differs from the relative benchmark returns. Assuming the market change does not impact our relative performance, a 10% change in equity markets would not result in a material impact from performance fees on our post-tax economic net income, given our current cost structure and operating model.

•	Foreign currency AUM includes equity and alternative assets denominated in foreign currencies. A 10% increase or decrease in foreign exchange rates against the U.S. dollar would cause our $97.6 billion of foreign currency denominated AUM to increase or decrease by $9.8 billion, resulting in a change in annualized management fee revenue of $43.3 million and an annual change in post-tax economic net income of $14.9 million, based on weighted average fees earned on our foreign currency denominated AUM of 44 basis points at the mix of strategies as of June 30, 2017 . Approximately $14.5 billion, or 15%, of our foreign currency denominated AUM are in accounts subject to performance fees. Of these assets, approximately 75% are in accounts for which performance fees, or management fee adjustments, are calculated based on investment return that differs from the relative benchmark returns. Assuming the market change does not impact our relative performance, a 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates would have an approximate incremental $0.7 million impact from performance fees on our post-tax economic net income, given our current cost structure and operating model.	

•	Fixed income AUM includes instruments in government bonds, corporate bonds and other fixed income investments in the United States. A change in interest rates, resulting in a 10% increase or decrease in the value of our total fixed income AUM of $13.2 billion, would cause AUM to rise or fall by approximately $1.3 billion. Based on our fixed income weighted average fee rates of 21 basis points, annualized management fees would change by $2.8 million and post-tax economic net income would change by $0.9 million annually. There are currently no material fixed income assets earning performance fees as of June 30, 2017 .	
Our investment income primarily represents investments in Affiliates accounted for under the equity method. Exposure to market risks for Affiliates accounted for under the equity method is immaterial and is included in the analysis above.
While the analysis above assumes that market changes occur in a uniform manner across the relevant portfolio, because of our declining fee rates for larger relationships and differences in our fee rates across asset classes, a change in the composition of our assets under management, in particular an increase in the proportion of our total assets under management attributable to strategies, clients or relationships with lower effective fee rates, could have a material negative impact on our overall weighted average fee rate.
As is customary in the asset management industry, clients invest in particular strategies to gain exposure to certain asset classes, which exposes their investment to the benefits and risks of such asset classes. We have not adopted a corporate-level risk management policy regarding client assets, nor have we attempted to hedge at the corporate level or within individual strategies the market risks that would affect the value of our overall assets under management and related revenues. Any reduction in the value of our assets under management would result in a reduction in our revenues.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1.          Legal Proceedings.
From time to time, we and our Affiliates may be parties to various claims, suits and complaints in the ordinary course of our business. Although the amount of liability that may result from these matters cannot be ascertained, we do not currently believe that, in the aggregate, they will result in liabilities material to our consolidated financial condition, future results of operations or cash flow.
Item 1A.  Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 22, 2017 , under the heading “Risk Factors” and Item 8.01 to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2017. You should also consider the following risk factor which has been updated following announcement by UK tax authorities.
Future changes to the tax laws under which we should be treated as a foreign corporation for U.S. federal tax purposes and changes in other tax laws or tax treaties relating to multinational corporations could adversely affect us.
Under current law, as noted above, OMAM should be treated as a foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Changes to Section 7874 of the Code or the U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder or future IRS guidance could affect OMAM’s status as a foreign corporation for U.S. federal tax purposes, and any such changes or future IRS guidance could have prospective or retroactive application.
For instance, on April 4, 2016, the IRS issued a package of temporary regulations, addressing so-called inversion transactions under sections 7874 and 367 and certain post-inversion transactions such as under sections 304 and 956, which rules are generally effective for certain inversion transactions completed on or after November 19, 2015 or, in certain cases, to certain specified post-inversion transactions occurring after that date provided that an inversion transaction had occurred on or after September 22, 2014. While those rules would, in certain cases, apply to transactions, such as our initial public offering, that occurred after September 22, 2014, we believe that those rules would not impact the treatment of the Reorganization or OMAM’s status as a foreign corporation under Section 7874 of the Code. The IRS issued final regulations on June 3, 2015, which address the “substantial business activities” test of Section 7874 of the Code. We believe that those regulations, which have an effective date of June 4, 2015, also do not impact the treatment of the Reorganization or OMAM’s status as a foreign corporation under Section 7874.
In addition, recent legislative proposals have aimed to expand the scope of Section 7874 and/or to expand the scope of U.S. corporate tax residence. If any such legislation (or similar legislation) were enacted, or if future IRS guidance were issued addressing the scope of U.S. corporate tax residence, it could cause OMAM to be treated as a domestic corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes as of or after the Reorganization or could otherwise adversely affect us.
In July 2013, The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development launched an Action Plan on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting, or the BEPS Action Plan. The BEPS Action Plan identified 15 specific actions to address Base Erosion and Profit Shifting, set deadlines to implement the actions and identified the resources needed and the methodology to implement these actions. The OECD published their final package of reports relating to the 15 actions outlined in the BEPS Action Plan in October 2015. These contemplated changes, if finalized and adopted by countries, could adversely affect our provision for income taxes.
In 2016, the U.K. Government enacted legislation which included new anti-hybrid rules designed to neutralize the effects of hybrid mismatch arrangements, which took effect from January 1, 2017. Our financing structure includes an entity which could be treated as a hybrid for the purposes of these rules, but we received a written opinion from

69

Table of Contents

Deloitte LLP that the new anti-hybrid rules as originally enacted should not apply to our financing structure. On July 13, 2017 (the “Effective Date”) the U.K. Government published revised draft legislation to be included in the U.K. Finance Bill (No. 2) 2017 containing revisions to the anti-hybrid rules that are expected to impact the Company’s tax position as of the Effective Date. The legislation is expected to receive Royal Assent later this year, although there is still scope for changes to be made as the Finance Bill is finalized. We will continue to explore alternative financing structures that comply with these new tax rules, however given the anticipated Effective Date, we expect to record the incremental U.K. tax as of the Effective Date upon enactment of the revised legislation. If this legislation is enacted as currently proposed, the Company’s U.K. tax liability is expected to increase by approximately $10 million annually based on our current balance sheet and the impact in 2017 is expected to be a reduction to our earnings of approximately $2.3 million and $3.1 million for U.S. GAAP net income and economic net income, respectively.
The Office of Revenue Commissioners, U.S Congress and government agencies in other jurisdictions where we and our Affiliates do business have each recently focused on issues related to the taxation of multinational corporations. As a result, the tax laws in the U.K., U.S. and other countries in which we and our Affiliates do business could change on a prospective or retroactive basis and any such changes could adversely affect us.

We did not repurchase any shares under this program during the six months ended June 30, 2017. As of June 30, 2017 , $137.8 million remained available to repurchase shares under the February 2016 program. The February 2016 program expires on March 15, 2021.	

(2)	On April 29, 2016, at the Company’s Annual General Meeting, shareholders (excluding OM Group UK Ltd) authorized a form of contract by which OMAM would be permitted to repurchase shares directly from OM Group UK Ltd. The shareholder authorization does not contain a maximum dollar or share amount for such purchases individually or in aggregate from OM Group UK Ltd. This program expires on April 29, 2021.
