Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes thereto, which appear elsewhere in this Report. Except for the historical financial information, this Report may include statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” under the United States (U.S.) securities laws. Forward-looking statements include information concerning future results of our operations, expenses, earnings, liquidity, cash flow, capital expenditures, and AUM that could differ materially from actual results due to known and unknown risks and other important factors, including, but not limited to, industry or market conditions, geopolitical events including wars, global trade tensions, tariffs, natural disasters, and pandemics or health crises and their respective potential impact on the company, acquisitions and divestitures, debt and our ability to obtain additional financing or make payments, regulatory developments, demand for and pricing of our products, the prospects for certain legal contingencies, and other aspects of our business or general economic conditions. In addition, when used in this Report or such other documents or statements, words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “projects,” “forecasts,” and future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “may,” “could,” “should,” and “would” as well as any other statement that necessarily depends on future events, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. None of this information should be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, historical financial statements.
Forward-looking statements are not guarantees, and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from our expectations. We caution investors not to rely unduly on any forward-looking statements and urge them to carefully consider the risks described in this Report and our most recent Form 10-K and Forms 10-Q filed with the SEC.
You may obtain these reports from the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update the information in any public disclosure if any forward-looking statement later turns out to be inaccurate.
References
In this Report, unless otherwise specified, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” “company,” “firm,” and “Invesco” refer to Invesco Ltd., a company incorporated in Bermuda, and its consolidated entities.
Executive Overview
The following executive overview summarizes the significant trends affecting our results of operations and financial condition for the periods presented. This overview and the remainder of this management’s discussion and analysis and supplements should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Invesco Ltd. and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Report. The company’s financial results are impacted by the fluctuations in exchange rates against the U.S. Dollar, as discussed in the “Results of Operations” section as applicable.
The company is an independent investment management firm dedicated to delivering a superior investment experience. Our comprehensive range of active, passive and alternative investment capabilities has been constructed over many years to help clients achieve their investment objectives. We draw on this comprehensive range of capabilities to provide solutions designed to deliver key outcomes aligned to client needs. One of Invesco's core strengths, and a key differentiator for the company within the industry, is our diversification across investment capabilities, distribution channels and geographies. This broad diversification helps to mitigate some of the impact of different market cycles on Invesco and enables the company to take advantage of growth opportunities in various markets and channels.

Our diversified platform, global scale, and breadth of products were integral to continued strong net long-term inflows of $21.8 billion for the quarter, primarily driven by ETFs and Index, China JV, Fundamental Fixed income, and Multi-Asset/Other. We also had $11.5 billion of net inflows into money market funds. Average AUM were $2.2 trillion for the quarter, an increase of $338.1 billion, or 18%, compared to the same quarter in the prior year.
We remain prudent and diligent in our approach to capital management. Our priorities are balanced with a focus on supporting future growth and maintaining the strength of our balance sheet, while returning excess cash to shareholders. During the quarter, the Board approved an increase in our quarterly dividend from $0.21 to $0.215 per share beginning with the dividend that will be paid to holders of common shares in the second quarter of 2026. Additionally, the company repurchased 1.6 million common shares for $40.0 million in the open market. On February 18, 2026, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to $1.0 billion of the company’s outstanding common stock with no stated time limit or expiration date. Also, we redeemed the $500.0 million of senior notes that matured on January 15, 2026.

Presentation of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Impact of Consolidated Investment Products
The company provides investment management services to, and has transactions with, investment products sponsored by the company in the normal course of business. The company's investment adviser subsidiaries serve as investment managers to these products, making day-to-day investment decisions concerning the assets of the products. Investment products that are consolidated are referred to in this Report as CIP. The company’s economic risk with respect to each investment in CIP is limited to its equity ownership, unfunded equity commitments and any uncollected management and performance fees. See also Note 11, "Consolidated Investment Products," for additional information regarding the impact of the consolidation of managed funds.
The majority of the company’s CIP balances are related to collateralized loan obligations (CLOs). The collateral assets of the CLOs are held solely to satisfy the obligations of the CLOs. The company has no right to the benefits from, nor does it bear the risks associated with, the collateral assets held by the CLOs beyond the company’s direct investments in, and management and performance fees generated from, the CLOs. If the company were to liquidate, the collateral assets would not be available to the general creditors of the company, and as a result, the company does not consider these assets to be company assets. Likewise, the investors in the CLOs have no recourse to the general credit of the company for the notes issued by the CLOs. The company therefore does not consider any of the CLO debt to be a company liability.
Due to the significant impact that CIP has on the presentation of the company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the company has elected to deconsolidate these products in its non-GAAP disclosures (among other adjustments). See "Schedule of Non-GAAP Information" for additional information regarding these adjustments. The following discussion therefore combines the results presented under U.S. GAAP with the company’s non-GAAP presentation.

This overview and the remainder of this management's discussion and analysis and supplements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Invesco Ltd. and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The company’s financial results are impacted by the fluctuations in exchange rates against the U.S. Dollar, as discussed in the “Results of Operations” section as applicable.

We continued to make progress on strengthening our capital management, simplifying and focusing our organization, investing in our key capabilities, and accelerating growth to position the company for greater scale, performance and improved profitability.
We are delivering on our commitment to deleverage and maintain a strong balance sheet. We repaid in full the $500.0 million three-year Term Loan Agreement entered into in the second quarter of 2025 and ended the year with cash and cash equivalents of $1.0 billion. Additionally, on January 15, 2026, we redeemed the $500.0 million of senior notes that matured on January 15, 2026. We believe the progress we have made to build financial flexibility has Invesco well-positioned to navigate various market conditions and deliver long-term growth. We remain committed to returning capital to shareholders longer term through a combination of share repurchases and modestly increasing dividends. During the year, the company repurchased 5.4 million common shares for $100.4 million in the open market, and we expect to continue common share repurchases on a regular basis going forward. Additionally, we repurchased $1.5 billion of Invesco’s outstanding Series A Preferred Stock during the year. We also amended and restated the $2.0 billion floating rate Revolving Credit Agreement, increasing the borrowing capacity to $2.5 billion and extending the expiration date to May 16, 2030.

In addition to our previously announced broader strategic product and distribution partnership with Barings (MassMutual's global asset management subsidiary), we also announced a new strategic partnership with LGT Capital Partners during the fourth quarter. These partnerships aim to develop a suite of multi-alternative private markets solutions focused on the U.S. wealth and retirement channels.
On December 20, 2025, Invesco QQQ Trust converted from a unit investment trust (UIT) to an open-end fund ETF. The modernized QQQ ETF provides investors with a more beneficial way to access the companies of the Nasdaq-100 Index, including a reduced expense ratio and enhanced operational flexibility. This change also deepens the company's ability to generate new revenues and drive profitability.
During the fourth quarter, we completed the sale of the intelliflo business as part of our efforts to sharpen our strategic focus. We also completed the sale of 60% of our interest in Invesco Asset Management (India) Private Limited to IndusInd
International Holdings Limited to enhance the revenue generation of the business by combining our asset management expertise with their domestic distribution network.
On January 13, 2026, we announced that we entered into an agreement to sell our Canadian fund management agreements to CI Global Asset Management and form a long-term strategic partnership under which we will continue to provide portfolio management services through a sub-advisory arrangement to approximately 66 of the 104 Canadian mutual funds and ETFs with approximately $9 billion of AUM.
Presentation of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Impact of Consolidated Investment Products (CIP)
The company provides investment management services to, and has transactions with, investment products sponsored by the company in the normal course of business. The company's investment adviser subsidiaries serve as investment managers to these products, making day-to-day investment decisions concerning the assets of the products. The company is required to consolidate certain of these managed funds from time-to-time, as discussed more fully in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 1, "Accounting Policies -- Basis of Accounting and Consolidation." Investment products that are consolidated are referred to in this Report as CIP. The company's economic risk with respect to each investment in CIP is limited to its equity ownership, unfunded equity commitments and any uncollected management and performance fees.
The majority of the company's CIP balances are CLO-related. The collateral assets of the CLOs are held solely to satisfy the obligations of the CLOs. The company has no right to the benefits from, nor does it bear the risks associated with, the collateral assets held by the CLOs beyond the company's direct investments in, and management and performance fees generated from, the CLOs. If the company were to liquidate, the collateral assets would not be available to the general creditors of the company, and as a result, the company does not consider these assets to be company assets. Likewise, the investors in the CLOs have no recourse to the general credit of the company for the notes issued by the CLOs. The company therefore does not consider this debt to be a company liability.
Due to the significant impact that CIP has on the presentation of the company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, the company has elected to deconsolidate these products in its non-GAAP disclosures (among other adjustments). See "Schedule of Non-GAAP Information" for additional information regarding these adjustments. The following discussion therefore combines the results presented under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (U.S. GAAP) with the company’s non-GAAP presentation.
To assess the impact of CIP on the company's Results of Operations and Balance Sheet Discussion, refer to Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 18, "Consolidated Investment Products."

Among Invesco's strategic objectives is a commitment to deliver the excellence our clients expect, which includes strong investment performance over the long-term for our clients. The table below presents investment performance of our actively managed investment products measured by the percentage of our AUM in the first and second quartile compared to our peers and above benchmark for the investment capabilities for which peer and benchmark data are available.(1)

(1) Excludes passive products, closed-end funds, private equity limited partnerships, non-discretionary funds, UITs, fund of funds with component funds managed by Invesco, stable value building block funds and collateralized debt obligations. Certain funds and products were excluded from the analysis because of limited benchmark or peer group data. Had these been available, results may have been different. These results are preliminary and subject to revision.
AUM measured in the one, three and five year quartile rankings represents 35%, 34% and 33% of total Invesco AUM, respectively, and AUM measured versus benchmark on a one, three and five year basis represents 44%, 43%, and 42% of total Invesco AUM as of 12/31/2025. Peer group rankings are sourced from a widely-used third-party ranking agency in each fund’s market (Morningstar, IA, Lipper, eVestment, Mercer, Galaxy, SITCA, Value Research) and asset-weighted in USD. Rankings are as of prior quarter-end for most institutional products and prior month-end for Australian retail funds due to their late release by third parties. Rankings are calculated against all funds in each peer group. Rankings for the primary share class of the most representative fund in each composite are applied to all products within each composite. Performance assumes the reinvestment of dividends. Past performance is not indicative of future results and may not reflect an investor’s experience.

Assets Under Management
Movements in global capital market levels, net inflows (or outflows), and changes in the mix of investment products between and within asset classes and geographies may materially affect our revenues from period to period.
The AUM tables and the discussion below refer to certain AUM as long-term. Long-term inflows and the underlying reasons for the movements in this line item include investments from new clients, existing clients adding new accounts/funds or contributions/subscriptions into existing accounts/funds. Long-term outflows reflect client redemptions from accounts/funds and include the return of invested capital upon maturity. We present net flows into money market funds separately because shareholders of those funds typically use them as short-term funding vehicles and the flows are particularly sensitive to short-term interest rate movements.
Changes in AUM were as follows:

____________
(1) Non-management fee earning flows include Invesco QQQ Trust’s flows prior to its restructuring from an UIT to an open-end fund ETF on December 20, 2025. Net long-term flows include Invesco QQQ Trust’s flows beginning on December 20, 2025.
(2) U.S. GAAP gross revenue yield on AUM is equal to U.S. GAAP annualized total operating revenues divided by average AUM, excluding IGW AUM. The average AUM for IGW was $109.0 billion in 2025 (2024: $88.6 billion, 2023: $87.2 billion). It is appropriate to exclude the average AUM of IGW as the revenues resulting from these AUM are not presented in our U.S. GAAP operating revenues. The U.S. GAAP gross revenue yield is not a good measure because the numerator excludes the management fees earned from CIP, although the denominator of the measure includes the AUM of these investment products. Net revenue yield metrics include the Net revenues and average AUM of IGW and CIP. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for a reconciliation of operating revenues to net revenues.
(3) Performance fees are earned when defined performance metrics are achieved. Therefore, net revenue yield is calculated excluding performance fees. Net revenue yield includes net revenues from Invesco QQQ Trust beginning on December 20, 2025.

Flows
There are numerous drivers of AUM inflows and outflows, including individual investor decisions to change investment preferences, fiduciaries and other gatekeepers making broad asset allocation decisions on behalf of their clients, and reallocation of investments within portfolios. We are not a party to these asset allocation decisions, as the company does not generally have access to the underlying investors' decision-making process, including their risk appetite or liquidity needs. Therefore, the company is not in a position to provide meaningful information regarding the drivers of inflows and outflows.
Market Returns
Market gains and losses include the net change in AUM resulting from changes in market values of the underlying securities from period to period. The table in the “Executive Overview” section of this Management's Discussion and Analysis summarizes returns based on price appreciation/(depreciation) of several major market indices for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Foreign Exchange Rates
During the year ended December 31, 2025, we experienced an increase in AUM of $17.0 billion due to changes in foreign exchange rates (December 31, 2024: AUM decreased $16.3 billion; December 31, 2023: AUM decreased $0.4 billion).

_________
(1) Total Revenue Adjustments remove pass through investment management fees, service and distribution fees, and other revenues and equal the same amount as the Third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses.
(2) See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional important disclosures regarding the use of net revenues.
Our revenues are directly influenced by the level and composition of our AUM. Therefore, movements in global capital market levels, net inflows (or outflows), and changes in the mix of investment products between and within asset classes and geographies may materially affect our revenues from period to period. See the company’s disclosures regarding the changes in AUM during the year ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 in the “Assets Under Management” section above for additional information. In addition, as fee rates differ across geographic locations, changes to the mix of AUM between geographies and exchange rates have an impact on operating revenues and net revenue yields.
Average AUM was $2,000.1 billion for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $1,712.2 billion for the year ended December 31, 2024. As secular shifts in client demand continue, our broad set of investment capabilities have allowed us to capture evolving client product preferences, including products that have lower net revenue yields. As a result, net revenue yield excluding performance fees declined to 23.0 basis points (bps) for the year ended December 31, 2025 from 25.4 bps for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Investment Management Fees
Investment management fees were $4,615.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $4,342.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased Investment management fees by $35.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. After allowing for foreign exchange movements, Investment management fees increased by $237.1 million as a result of higher average AUM. See discussion above on how AUM changes impact our Investment management fees.

Service and Distribution Fees
For the year ended December 31, 2025, Service and distribution fees were $1,518.1 million as compared to $1,479.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. After allowing for foreign exchange movements, Service and distribution fees increased by $31.9 million due to higher distribution fees of $61.4 million resulting from higher average AUM, partially offset by lower fund-related service fees.
Performance Fees
For the years ended December 31, 2025, Performance fees were $41.5 million as compared to $46.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. Performance fees for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were primarily generated from multi-asset/other, private markets and fundamental equities products.
Other Revenues
For the year ended December 31, 2025, Other revenues were $202.2 million as compared to $198.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Invesco Great Wall
The company’s most significant joint venture is our investment in IGW. The company reflects 100% of IGW's results in its Net revenues and Adjusted operating expenses because it is important to evaluate the contribution that IGW is making to the business. The company’s non-GAAP operating results reflect the economics of these holdings on a basis consistent with the underlying AUM and flows. Adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. is reduced by the amount of earnings attributable to the noncontrolling interests. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional disclosures regarding the use of Net revenues.
Net revenues from IGW were $364.0 million and average AUM was $109.0 billion for the year ended December 31, 2025 (Net revenues were $318.1 million and average AUM was $88.6 billion, for the year ended December 31, 2024). The increase in IGW revenues was primarily due to higher average AUM partially offset by the shift in AUM toward lower yield products.
CIP
Management believes that the consolidation of investment products may impact a reader's analysis of our underlying results of operations and could result in investor confusion or the production of information about the company by analysts or external credit rating agencies that is not reflective of the underlying results of operations and financial condition of the company. Accordingly, management believes that it is appropriate to adjust operating revenues for the impact of CIP in calculating Net revenues. As Investment management and Performance fees earned by Invesco from the CIP are eliminated upon consolidation of the CIP, management believes that it is appropriate to add these Operating revenues back in the calculation of Net revenues. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional disclosures regarding the use of Net revenues.
Investment management and Performance fees earned from CIP were $44.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to $41.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.

__________
(1) Transaction, integration and restructuring charges were primarily restructuring costs relating to our strategic evaluation which we completed in the first quarter of 2023.
Operating expenses increased $1,837.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024 and included a $1,794.9 million non-cash impairment of our indefinite-lived intangible assets related to prior acquisitions of management contracts of U.S. retail mutual funds. Excluding the intangible asset impairment, Operating expenses increased $43.0 million. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased operating expenses by $36.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024.

Table of Contents
Third-Party Distribution, Service and Advisory
Third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses include periodic “renewal” commissions which are paid to brokers and independent financial advisors for providing services to their client accounts while they are invested in an Invesco product. Renewal commissions are calculated based upon a percentage of the AUM value and apply to much of the company's non-U.S. retail operations. The revenues from the company’s U.S. retail operations include 12b-1 distribution fees, which are largely passed through to brokers who sell the funds as third-party distribution expenses along with additional marketing support distribution costs. Both the revenues and the costs are dependent on the underlying AUM of the brokers' clients. The upfront distribution commissions are amortized over the redemption period. Also included in Third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses are sub-transfer agency fees that are paid to third parties for processing client common share purchases and redemptions, call center support and client reporting. These costs are reimbursed by the related funds.
Third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses were $2,127.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $2,025.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased third-party expenses by $13.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared for the year ended December 31, 2024. After allowing for foreign exchange rate changes, the increase in expenses was $87.7 million primarily due to higher average AUM, partially offset by lower fund related costs. See "Schedule of Non-GAAP Information" for additional disclosures.
Employee Compensation
Employee compensation includes salary, cash bonuses and long-term incentive plans designed to attract and retain the highest caliber employees. Employee staff benefit plan costs and payroll taxes are also included in Employee compensation.
Employee compensation was $2,002.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $2,014.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased Employee compensation by $13.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared for the year ended December 31, 2024. After allowing for foreign exchange rate changes, there was a decrease in Employee compensation of $25.0 million. The decrease primarily resulted from a net decrease of $122.9 million in expense related to common share-based awards and other long-term awards (collectively, Long-Term Awards) due to changes to the retirement criteria for vesting adopted in the third quarter of 2024, partially offset by higher variable compensation costs of $51.4 million primarily driven by higher revenues. The decrease was also offset by higher benefits and payroll taxes of $22.0 million and $16.9 million of severance expense related to the reorganization of the fundamental equities investment teams.
Headcount at December 31, 2025 was 7,499 (December 31, 2024; 8,508). The decrease in headcount was primarily due to the sale of the intelliflo business and the sale of 60% of our interest in Invesco Asset Management (India) Private Limited that were completed in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Marketing
Marketing expenses include the cost of direct advertising of our products through trade publications, television and other media, and public relations costs, such as the marketing of the company's products through conferences or other sponsorships.
Marketing expenses were $84.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $81.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Property, Office and Technology
Property, office and technology expenses include rent and utilities for our various leased facilities, depreciation of company-owned property, equipment and software, and other technology expenses including maintenance and licensing fees.
Property, office and technology expenses were $450.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $474.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower property and technology costs, partially offset by an $8.0 million software impairment related to a strategic change to the company's fixed income investment platform in the second quarter of 2025.

Table of Contents
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses include information service subscriptions, irrecoverable indirect taxes, employee travel, professional fees, recruitment and training costs as well as costs for outsourced services such as technology, middle office and back office management services.
General and administrative expenses were $576.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $594.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. After allowing for foreign exchange rate changes, General and administrative expenses decreased by $25.1 million. The decrease was primarily due to a $52.5 million expense related to the settlement of certain regulatory matters in the year ended December 31, 2024, partially offset by higher costs of $22.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2025 related to newly launched CIP.
Amortization and impairment of intangible assets
Amortization and impairment of intangible assets was $1,832.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $44.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to a $1,794.9 million non-cash impairment of our indefinite-lived intangible assets related to management contracts of U.S. retail mutual funds.
Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Income, Operating Margin and Adjusted Operating Margin
Operating loss was $(695.7) million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to an operating gain of $832.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. Operating margin (operating income divided by operating revenues) decreased to (10.9)% for the year ended December 31, 2025 from 13.7% in the year ended December 31, 2024 primarily as a result of the $1,794.9 million intangible asset impairment as discussed above.
Adjusted operating income increased to $1,557.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 from $1,370.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. Adjusted operating margin increased to 33.4% for the year ended December 31, 2025 from 31.1% for the year ended December 31, 2024. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for a reconciliation of Operating revenues to Net revenues, a reconciliation of Operating income to Adjusted operating income and additional important disclosures regarding Net revenues, Adjusted operating income and Adjusted operating margin.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates increased to $104.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $43.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in income of $28.9 million from our private markets real estate investments and $27.7 million from our joint venture investment in IGW.
Interest and dividend income
Interest and dividend income was $53.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $58.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in interest income earned from Cash and cash equivalents, partially offset by higher dividend income earned on our private markets investments.

Table of Contents
Interest expense
Interest expense was $82.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $58.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The year ended December 31, 2025 included interest expense related to the new Term Loan Agreements entered into on May 16, 2025.
Other gains and losses, net
Other gains and losses, net was a gain of $55.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to a net gain of $47.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The net gains for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 included net market gains on deferred compensation related investments and hedging instruments of $55.1 million and $39.7 million, respectively.
Other income/(expense) of CIP, net
Other income/(expense) of CIP, net includes interest and dividend income, interest expense, and realized and unrealized gains and losses on the underlying investments and debt owned by CIP. For the year ended December 31, 2025, net interest income of CIP was $116.3 million as compared to $139.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in net interest income was primarily a result of a newly consolidated investment product in the year ended December 31, 2024 which was deconsolidated in the year ended December 31, 2025 as well as lower net interest income earned by the CLOs. For the year ended December 31, 2025, other gains and losses of CIP were a net gain of $67.9 million as compared to a net loss of $57.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The net gain for the year ended December 31, 2025 was attributable to market-driven gains on investments held by consolidated funds. The net loss for the year ended December 31, 2024 was attributable to market-driven losses on investments held by consolidated funds.
Net impact of CIP and related noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities
The adjustment to Net income for the Net income/(loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities removes the income/(expense) of CIP which is attributable to third-party investors. Therefore, the consolidation of investment products did not have an impact on Net income attributable to Invesco for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. Also, the net income or loss of CIP is taxed at the investor level, not at the product level; therefore, a tax provision is not reflected in the net impact of CIP.
Income Tax Expense
The income tax provision was a benefit of $(204.6) million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to an expense of $252.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, resulting in effective tax rates of 53.9% and 25.2% for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The net benefit for the year ended December 31, 2025 was primarily due to the federal and state income tax benefit related to the loss before income taxes which was further increased by the favorable resolution of an income tax matter, including the impact of a decrease in the deferred income tax rate and the reversal of a reserve for uncertain tax positions, and the favorable impact of the net income attributable to non-controlling interests in consolidated entities and equity method investments in corporate joint ventures. For additional income tax information, please refer to Note 14, “Taxation,” in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

Schedule of Non-GAAP Information
We utilize the following non-GAAP performance measures: Net revenue (and by calculation, Net revenue yield on AUM), Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income attributable to Invesco and Adjusted diluted EPS. The company believes the adjusted measures provide valuable insight into the company’s ongoing operational performance and assist in comparisons to its competitors. These measures also assist the company’s management with the establishment of operational budgets and forecasts. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures are Operating revenues (and by calculation, Gross revenue yield on AUM), Operating income, Operating margin, Net income/(loss) attributable to Invesco and Diluted EPS. Each of these measures is discussed more fully below.
The following are reconciliations of the U.S. GAAP measures to the non-GAAP measures. The non-GAAP measures should not be considered as substitutes for any U.S. GAAP measures and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Additional reconciling items may be added in the future to the non-GAAP measures if deemed appropriate. The tax effects related to the reconciling items have been calculated based on the tax rate attributable to the jurisdiction to which the transaction relates. Notes to the reconciliations follow the tables.

____________
(1) Revenue adjustments: The company calculates Net revenues by reducing Operating revenues to exclude fees that are passed through to external parties who perform functions on behalf of, and distribute, the company’s managed funds. The Net revenue presentation assists in identifying the revenue contribution generated by the company, removing distortions caused by the differing distribution channel fees and allowing for a fair comparison with U.S. peer investment managers and within Invesco’s own investment units. Additionally, management evaluates Net revenue yield on AUM, which is equal to Net revenues divided by Average AUM during the reporting period, as an indicator of the Net revenues we receive for each dollar of AUM we manage.
Investment management fees are adjusted by renewal commissions and certain administrative fees. Service and distributions fees are primarily adjusted by distribution fees passed through to broker dealers for certain share classes and pass through fund-related costs. Other revenues are primarily adjusted by transaction fees passed through to third parties.
(2) Invesco Great Wall: The company reflects 100% of IGW in its Net revenues and Adjusted operating income (and by calculation, Adjusted operating margin). The company’s non-GAAP operating results reflect the economics of these holdings on a basis consistent with the underlying AUM and flows. Adjusted net income is reduced by the amount of earning attributable to the noncontrolling interests.
(3) CIP: See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 18, “Consolidated Investment Products,” for a detailed analysis of the impact to the company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements from the consolidation of CIP. The company believes that the CIP may impact a reader’s analysis of our underlying results of operations and could result in investor confusion or the production of information about the company by analysts or external credit rating agencies that is not reflective of the underlying results of operations and financial condition of the company. Accordingly, the company believes that it is appropriate to adjust Operating revenues and Operating income for the impact of CIP in calculating the respective Net revenues and Adjusted operating income (and by calculation, Adjusted operating margin).
(4) Transaction, integration and restructuring: The company believes it is useful to adjust for the Transaction, integration and restructuring charges in arriving at Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted diluted EPS, as this will aid comparability of our results period to period, and aid comparability with peer companies that may not have similar acquisition and restructuring related charges. Transaction, integration and restructuring charges were primarily restructuring costs relating to our strategic evaluation which we completed in the first quarter of 2023.
(5) Amortization and impairment of intangible assets: The company removes amortization and non-cash impairment expense related to acquired assets in arriving at Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS, as this will aid comparability of our results period to period, and aid comparability with peer companies that may not have similar acquisition-related charges.

Table of Contents
(6) Market valuation changes related to deferred compensation plan liabilities: Certain deferred compensation plan awards provide a return to the employee linked to the appreciation (depreciation) of specified investments. The company economically hedges the exposure to market movements on these deferred compensation liabilities. Since these liabilities are economically hedged, the company believes it is useful to remove the market movements related to the deferred compensation plan liabilities from the calculation of Adjusted operating income (and by calculation, Adjusted operating margin) and to remove the net impact of the economic hedge in arriving at Adjusted net income (and by calculation, Adjusted diluted EPS) to produce results that will be more comparable period to period.
(7) One-time acceleration of compensation expense for outstanding Long-Term Awards: In the third quarter of 2024, the company recorded a one-time acceleration of Compensation expense of $147.6 million resulting from changes to the retirement criteria for vesting of outstanding Long-Term Awards. Due to the non-recurring nature of this item, the company removed this expense in arriving at Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted diluted EPS as this will aid comparability of our results period to period.
(8) Severance: In the second quarter of 2025, the company removed the severance expense related to the reorganization of its fundamental equities investment teams. The company removed this expense in arriving at Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted diluted EPS, as this will aid comparability of our results period to period and aid comparability with peer companies that may not have similar reorganization related charges.
(9) Software impairment: In the second quarter of 2025, the company removed the non-cash software impairment related to a strategic change in our fixed income investment platform. The company removed the expense in arriving at Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted diluted EPS as this will aid comparability of our results period to period.
(10) General and administrative: In 2024, the company removed the expense related to the settlement of regulatory matters. In 2023, the company removed insurance recoveries related to fund-related losses incurred in prior periods. Due to the non-recurring nature of these items, the company removed these expenses in arriving at Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS as this will aid comparability of our results period to period.
(11) Operating margin is equal to Operating income divided by Operating revenues.
(12) Adjusted operating margin is equal to Adjusted operating income divided by Net revenues.
(13) Impact of deferred income tax rate change: In the third quarter of 2025, the company removed a non-cash income tax benefit of $39.0 million related to the revaluation of the deferred tax liabilities for indefinite-lived intangible assets as a result of a decrease in the tax rate. The company removed this discrete tax benefit in arriving at Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS as it does not have a cash flow impact and will aid comparability of our results period to period.
(14) Tax adjustment for amortization of intangible assets and goodwill: The company reflects the tax benefit realized on the tax amortization of goodwill and intangible assets in Adjusted net income. The company believes it is useful to include this tax benefit in arriving at Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS measure.
(15) Tax adjustment for impairment of intangible assets: The company removed the non-cash income tax benefit related to the impairment of our indefinite-lived intangible assets. The company removed this discrete tax benefit in arriving at Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS as it does not have a cash flow impact and will aid comparability of our results period to period.
(16) Cost of preferred stock repurchase: In 2025, the company repurchased $1.5 billion of the company’s outstanding Series A Preferred Stock held by MassMutual. The company removed the costs associated with the repurchase in arriving at Adjusted net income (and by calculation, Adjusted diluted EPS) as this will aid comparability of our results period to period and aid comparability with peer companies that may not have similar repurchase related charges.
(17) Adjusted diluted EPS is equal to Adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. divided by the weighted average number of common and restricted common shares outstanding.

Goodwill and intangible assets, net decreased to $12,404.4 million at December 31, 2025 from $14,067.4 million at December 31, 2024. The decrease was due to a $1,794.9 million non-cash impairment of our indefinite-lived intangible assets related to prior acquisitions of management contracts of U.S. retail mutual funds, $71.6 million impact from the sale of the intelliflo business and the sale of 60% of our interest in Invesco Asset Management (India) Private Limited, and amortization expense of $37.5 million, partially offset by foreign exchange impacts of $241.0 million. See "Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” and Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 1, “Accounting Policies,” for additional information.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our capital structure, together with available cash balances, cash flows generated from operations, existing capacity under our Revolving Credit Agreement and further capital market activities, if necessary, should provide us with sufficient resources to meet present and future cash needs, including operating expenses, debt and other obligations as they come due and anticipated future capital requirements.

Capital Management
Our capital management priorities have evolved with the growth and success of our business and include, in no particular order of priority: reinvestment in the business, maintaining a strong balance sheet and returning capital to shareholders longer term through a combination of share repurchases and modestly increasing dividends.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the company repurchased 5.4 million common shares for $100.4 million in the open market. As of December 31, 2025, approximately $232.2 million remained authorized under the company’s common share repurchase authorization approved by the Board on July 22, 2016. Additionally, the company repurchased $1.5 billion of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock held by MassMutual, reducing the outstanding balance of the Series A Preferred Stock to $2.5 billion.
Our capital process is executed in a manner consistent with our desire to maintain strong, investment grade credit ratings. As of the date of our filing, Invesco held credit ratings of BBB+/Stable, A3/Stable and A/Stable from S&P Ratings Service, Moody’s Investor Services and Fitch Ratings, respectively.
Other Items
Certain of our subsidiaries are required to maintain minimum levels of regulatory capital, liquidity, and working capital. Such requirements may change from time-to-time as additional guidance is released based on a variety of factors, including balance sheet composition, assessment of risk exposures and governance, and review from regulators. These and other similar provisions of applicable laws and regulations may have the effect of limiting withdrawals of capital, repayment of intercompany loans and payment of dividends by such entities. Our financial condition or liquidity could be adversely affected if certain of our subsidiaries are unable to distribute funds to us.
We are in compliance with all regulatory minimum net capital requirements. As of December 31, 2025, the company's minimum regulatory capital requirement was $309.9 million (December 31, 2024: $324.9 million).
We meet the regulatory liquidity and working capital requirements by holding cash and cash equivalents in the European sub-group. This retained cash can be used for general business purposes in the European sub-group in the countries where it is located. Due to the liquidity and working capital requirements, the ability to transfer cash between certain jurisdictions may be limited. In addition, transfers of cash between international jurisdictions may have adverse tax consequences.
The consolidation of $10,149.8 million and $8,967.6 million of Investments and other assets and Debt and other liabilities of CIP, respectively, as of December 31, 2025, did not impact the company’s liquidity and capital resources. See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 18, “Consolidated Investment Products,” for additional details.

(1) These tables include non-GAAP presentations. Cash held by CIP is not available for use by Invesco. Additionally, there is no recourse to Invesco for CIP debt. The cash flows of CIP do not form part of the company’s cash flow management processes, nor do they form part of the company’s liquidity evaluations and decisions.
Operating Activities
Operating cash flows include the receipt of Investment management and other fees generated from AUM, offset by Operating expenses and changes in operating assets and liabilities. After allowing for the change in cash held by CIP, investment activities, non-cash activity, and seasonal payments, such as bonus payments in the first quarter, our operating cash flows generally move in the same direction as our Operating income/(loss).
Cash inflows for the year ended December 31, 2025, excluding the impact of CIP, were primarily driven by operating income and changes in receivables, other assets, payables, and accrued liabilities due to the timing of receipts and payments.
Investing Activities
Cash outflows for the year ended December 31, 2025, excluding the impact of CIP, includes purchases of investments of $147.9 million (year ended December 31, 2024: $307.0 million) and property, equipment and software of $84.3 million (year ended December 31, 2024: $69.1 million), partially offset by proceeds of $156.0 million from capital distributions from equity method investees (year ended December 31, 2024: $135.9 million). Cash outflows were also partially offset by proceeds of $236.5 million from the sale of the intelliflo business and the sale of 60% of our interest in Invesco Asset Management (India) Private Limited.

Financing Activities
Financing cash outflows during the year ended December 31, 2025 included cash outflows of $1.5 billion to repurchase the company’s Series A Preferred Stock and net cash inflows of $992.7 million related to the Term Loan Agreements entered into in the second quarter of 2025 to fund the repurchase. Financing cash outflows also included $500.0 million for the repayment of the three-year Term Loan Agreement entered into in the second quarter of 2025, $240.0 million for the premium paid on the repurchase of Series A Preferred Stock, $377.3 million of common dividend payments for dividends declared in January, April, July and October 2025 (year ended December 31, 2024: common dividends paid of $371.5 million), $204.6 million of preferred dividend payments for dividends declared in January, April, July and October 2025 (year ended December 31, 2024: $236.8 million), $100.0 million for the repurchase of common shares through the open market (year ended December 31, 2024: $49.6 million), and the payment of $23.6 million to meet employees' withholding tax obligations on common share vestings (2024: $29.7 million). Financing cash inflows included net borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement of $437.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2025 (year ended December 31, 2024: zero). Financing cash outflows during the year ended December 31, 2024 also included a $600.0 million redemption of senior notes.
Dividends
When declared, Invesco pays dividends on a quarterly basis in arrears. Holders of our preferred shares are eligible to receive dividends at an annual rate of 5.9% of the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, or $59 per share per annum. The preferred stock dividend is payable quarterly on a non-cumulative basis when, if and as declared by our Board. However, if we have not declared and paid or set aside for payment full quarterly dividends on the preferred stock for a particular dividend period, we may not declare or pay dividends on, redeem, purchase or acquire our common stock or other junior securities in the next succeeding dividend period. In addition, if we have not declared and paid or set aside for payment quarterly dividends on the preferred stock for six quarterly periods, whether or not consecutive, the number of directors of the company will be increased by two and the holders of the preferred shares shall have the right to elect such two additional members of the Board.
On January 26, 2026, the company declared a fourth quarter 2025 cash dividend of $0.21 per common share to the holders of common shares. The dividend is payable on March 3, 2026, to common shareholders of record at the close of business on February 13, 2026, with an ex-dividend date of February 13, 2026.
On January 26, 2026, the company declared a preferred dividend of $14.75 per preferred share representing the period from December 1, 2025 through February 28, 2026. The preferred dividend is payable on March 2, 2026.
The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will depend upon, among other factors, our earnings, financial condition and capital requirements at the time such declaration and payment are considered. The company has a policy of managing dividends in a prudent fashion, with due consideration given to profit levels, overall debt levels and historical dividend payouts.
Common Share Repurchase Plan
During 2025, the company repurchased 5.4 million shares for $100.4 million in the open market as compared to 2.9 million shares for $49.6 million during 2024. At December 31, 2025, approximately $232.2 million remained authorized under the company's common share repurchase authorization approved by the Board on July 22, 2016 (December 31, 2024: $332.6 million).
Preferred Stock Repurchase
During 2025, the company repurchased $1.5 billion of the $4.0 billion outstanding Series A Preferred Stock held by MassMutual for $1.74 billion.
Debt
The carrying value of our debt at December 31, 2025 was $1,825.1 million (December 31, 2024: $890.6 million), See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 8, “Debt,” for additional disclosures.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the company's weighted average cost of debt was 4.81% (year ended December 31, 2024: 4.64%).

____________
(1) Includes the 2025 $1,794.9 million non-cash impairment of our indefinite-lived intangible assets and the impairment of software implementation costs.
(2) Unusual or otherwise non-recurring gains and losses, as defined in our Credit Agreements, are adjusted for in the determination of Covenant Adjusted EBITDA. Severance expense related to the reorganization of the company’s fundamental equities investment teams and costs associated with the repurchase of the company’s outstanding Series A Preferred Stock in 2025 were non-recurring expenses and have been removed from Covenant Adjusted EBITDA. Adjustments to Covenant Adjusted EBITDA in 2024 included the one-time acceleration of expense related to changes to the criteria for retirements for Long-Term Awards and the settlement of regulatory matters.
(3) Adjustments for unrealized gains and losses from investments, as defined in our Credit Agreements, may also include non-cash gains and losses on investments to the extent that they do not represent anticipated future cash receipts or expenditures.
(4) Covenant Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted debt are non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management in connection with certain debt covenant calculations under our Credit Agreements. The calculation of Covenant Adjusted EBITDA above (a reconciliation from Net income attributable to Invesco Ltd.) is defined by our Credit Agreements, and therefore Net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. is the most appropriate GAAP measure from which to reconcile to Covenant Adjusted EBITDA. The calculation of 2025 Adjusted debt is defined in our Credit Agreements and equals debt of $1,825.1 million plus $3.6 million in letters of credit less $600.0 million of excess unrestricted cash (cash and cash equivalents less the minimum regulatory capital requirement, not to exceed $600 million (2024: $500.0 million).
On January 15, 2026, Invesco Finance PLC, a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Parent, paid in full the outstanding balance of the $500.0 million senior notes which matured on January 15, 2026. The redemption was primarily funded by the Revolving Credit Agreement which had an outstanding balance of $790.0 million on January 31, 2026.
The discussion that follows identifies risks associated with the company's liquidity and capital resources. The Item 1. Business - Risk Management section contains a broader discussion of the company's overall approach to risk management.

Table of Contents
Credit and Liquidity Risk
The company manages its capital by reviewing annual and projected cash flow forecasts and by monitoring credit, liquidity and market risks, such as interest rate and foreign currency risks (as discussed in Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk”).
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to meet an obligation. The company is primarily exposed to credit risk through its cash and cash equivalent deposits, which are held by external firms. The company invests its cash balances in its own institutional money market products, as well as with external high credit-quality financial institutions. These arrangements create exposure to concentrations of credit risk. As of December 31, 2025, our maximum exposure to credit risk related to our Cash and cash equivalent balance is $1,037.5 million, of which $477.9 million is invested in affiliated money market funds. See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 2, "Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities" for information regarding Cash and cash equivalents invested in affiliated money market funds.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities as the same become due. The company is exposed to liquidity risk through its $1,825.1 million in total debt. The company actively manages liquidity risk by preparing cash flow forecasts for future periods, reviewing them regularly with senior management, maintaining a committed Revolving Credit Agreement, scheduling significant gaps between major debt maturities and engaging external financing sources in regular dialogue.
Effects of Inflation
Inflation can impact our organization primarily in two ways. First, inflationary pressures can result in increases in our cost structure, especially to the extent that large expense components such as compensation are impacted. To the degree that these expense increases are not recoverable or cannot be counterbalanced through pricing increases due to the competitive environment, our net income could be negatively impacted. Secondly, the value of the assets that we manage may be negatively impacted when inflationary expectations result in a rising interest rate environment. A decline in the value of AUM could lead to reduced revenues as management fees are generally calculated based upon the value of AUM.
Off Balance Sheet Commitments
See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 17, “Commitments and Contingencies,” for more information regarding undrawn capital commitments.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 1, “Accounting Policies." Critical accounting policies and estimates are those that require complex management judgment regarding matters that are highly uncertain at the time policies were applied and estimates were made. Different estimates reasonably could have been used in the current period that would have had a material effect on these Consolidated Financial Statements, and changes in these estimates are likely to occur from period-to-period in the future. The discussion below provides information on the significant judgments and assumptions applied in each area and should be read in conjunction with the significant accounting policies footnote previously referenced.
Intangible Assets
Management has the option to first assess indefinite-lived intangible assets for qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test. Definite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable (i.e., the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the intangible asset). In addition, management's judgment is required to estimate the period over which definite-lived intangible assets will contribute to the company's cash flows and the pattern in which these assets will be consumed. A change in the remaining useful life of any of these assets, or the reclassification of an indefinite-lived intangible asset to a definite-lived intangible asset, could have a significant impact on the company's amortization expense.
55
Table of Contents
Intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment annually as of October 1 or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. If a quantitative assessment is required, the impairment test consists of a comparison of the fair value of an intangible asset to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. Management used an income approach to value indefinite-lived intangible assets related to acquired management contracts of U.S. retail mutual funds. An income approach includes assumptions for current market conditions, including the asset’s updated forecasts of AUM to take into consideration market gains or losses, net long-term flows and the corresponding changes in revenue and expenses. The most sensitive assumptions used in the income approach are the revenue forecast, the long-term growth rate and the discount rate applied to the cash flow forecast to determine present value. The revenue forecast for the U.S. retail mutual funds incorporated market conditions, management judgment and other economic indicators, as well as industry growth projections. The revenue projections used reflect declines ranging from 3% to 9% over the forecast period. Taking into consideration the AUM mix, the long-term growth rate was determined using the historical returns of the S&P 500 index, treasury bonds and treasury bills. The long-term growth rate used by management in the annual impairment test was 2.0% which decreased from the long-term growth rate used in the prior year of 2.5% due to sustained net long-term outflows of AUM related to U.S. retail mutual funds. The discount rate is an estimate of the weighted average cost of capital for the investment management sector reflecting the overall industry risks associated with future cash flows and considers an applicable size premium for the intangible asset. The discount rate used by management was 13.0%, which increased 12 bps from the prior year primarily due to an increase in the risk-free rate. We continued to factor an asset-specific risk premium into the discount rate to account for the uncertainty around future AUM flows given the continued shift in investor preferences away from actively managed funds. We assessed the reasonableness of the estimated fair value of the intangible assets by considering applicable market data.
Based on our annual impairment analysis as of October 1, 2025, we determined that the carrying value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets related to acquired management contracts of U.S. retail mutual funds of $4,571.7 million exceeded the estimated fair value. As such, a $1,794.9 million impairment was recorded in Amortization and impairment of intangibles expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income which reduced the carrying value to $2,776.8 million. The impairment was driven by a decrease in the long-term growth rate and lower projected earnings as a result of lower revenues for these management contracts. While the company believes all assumptions utilized in our assessment are reasonable and appropriate, changes in these estimates could produce different fair value amounts which could drive impairment in future periods. For example, assuming all other assumptions remain static, a decrease to the revenue forecast of 2% would result in an incremental impairment of $56 million. A decrease to the long-term growth rate of 25 bps would result in an incremental impairment of $46 million. Also, an increase to the discount rate of 15 bps would result in an incremental impairment of $36 million. The impairment does not impact the company’s liquidity or capital resources.
Our annual impairment reviews of our other indefinite-lived intangible assets determined that there was not an impairment of these intangibles. The classifications of indefinite-lived and definite-lived intangible assets remain appropriate, and no changes to the expected lives of definite-lived intangible assets were required.
Goodwill
Management has the option to first assess goodwill for qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test. For our annual impairment tests in 2025 and 2024, management performed the optional qualitative approach which indicated that a quantitative assessment of the goodwill impairment test was not necessary. The qualitative impairment analysis indicated that it is more likely than not that the estimated fair value of the reporting unit was greater than the carrying value.
The company cannot predict the occurrence of future events that might adversely affect the reported value of goodwill of $8,477.1 million at December 31, 2025. Such events include, but are not limited to, strategic decisions made in response to economic and competitive conditions or a significant and prolonged decline in our revenue and operating income or a sustained decrease in our stock price. However, an impairment in the future would not impact the company’s liquidity or capital resources.
Income Taxes
The company files U.S. federal, state and numerous foreign income tax returns. The income tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations by the taxpayer and the relevant taxing authorities. Significant judgment is required in the determination of our annual income tax provision, which includes the assessment of deferred tax assets and uncertain tax positions, as well as the interpretation and application of existing and newly enacted tax laws, regulation changes and new judicial rulings. Therefore, it is possible that actual results will vary from those recognized in our Consolidated Financial Statements due to changes in the interpretation of applicable guidance or as a result of examinations by taxing authorities.
56
Table of Contents
Deferred tax assets, net of any associated valuation allowance, have been recognized based on management's belief that taxable income of the appropriate character, more likely than not, will be sufficient to realize the benefits of these assets over time. In the event that actual results differ from our expectations, or if our historical trends of positive operating income changes, we may be required to record a valuation allowance on some or all of these deferred tax assets, which may have a significant effect on our financial condition and results of operations. In assessing whether a valuation allowance should be established against a deferred income tax asset, the company considers all available evidence, which includes the nature, frequency and severity of recent losses, forecasts of future profitability and the duration of statutory carry back and carry forward periods, among other factors.
In the assessment of uncertain tax positions, significant judgment is required to estimate the range of possible outcomes and determine the probability, on a more likely than not basis, of favorable or unfavorable outcomes upon ultimate settlement of an issue. Changes in the estimate of uncertain tax positions occur periodically due to changes in interpretations of tax laws, the status of examinations by tax authorities and new regulatory or judicial guidance that could impact the relative merits and risk of tax positions. These changes, when they occur, impact tax expense and can materially impact results of operations. The company recognizes any interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits (UTBs) on the Consolidated Statements of Income as components of income tax expense.
CIP
The company consolidates certain investment products in which it has a controlling financial interest, either through a majority voting interest or as the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (VIE). Assessing if an entity is a VIE or voting interest entity (VOE) involves judgment and analysis on a structure-by-structure basis. Factors assessed as part of the analysis include the legal organization of the entity, the company's contractual involvement with the entity and any related party or de facto agent implications of the company's involvement with the entity. If the entity qualifies as a VIE and the company is deemed to have the power to direct the activities of the fund that most significantly impact the fund's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses/right to receive benefits from the fund that could potentially be significant to the fund, then the company is deemed to be the fund's primary beneficiary and is required to consolidate the fund. Assessing if the company has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the fund’s economic results may involve significant judgment.

The company’s financial results are impacted by the fluctuations in exchange rates against the U.S. Dollar, as discussed in the “Results of Operations” section as applicable.
We continued to make progress in executing our strategic priorities and leveraging our competitive advantages to improve operating performance in 2024. Higher operating revenues along with expense discipline contributed to an increase in operating income from the prior year. See additional discussion in the "Results of Operations" section.
We also remain highly focused on our capital priorities, investing in our key capabilities, efficiently allocating resources, and simplifying and streamlining the organization to position the company for greater scale, performance and improved profitability. We are delivering on our commitment to improve our leverage profile and maintain a strong balance sheet. We redeemed our $600 million senior notes, that were due on January 30, 2024, and we ended the year with cash and cash equivalents of $1 billion and a zero balance on our revolving credit facility. We believe the progress we have made to build financial flexibility has Invesco well-positioned to navigate various market conditions and deliver long-term growth. We remain committed to returning capital to shareholders longer term through a combination of share repurchases and modestly increasing

dividends. During the year, the company repurchased 2.9 million common shares for $49.6 million in the open market, and we expect to continue common share repurchases on a regular basis going forward.
Presentation of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Impact of Consolidated Investment Products (CIP)
The company provides investment management services to, and has transactions with, investment products sponsored by the company in the normal course of business. The company's investment adviser subsidiaries serve as investment managers to these products, making day-to-day investment decisions concerning the assets of the products. The company is required to consolidate certain of these managed funds from time-to-time, as discussed more fully in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 1, "Accounting Policies -- Basis of Accounting and Consolidation." Investment products that are consolidated are referred to in this Report as CIP. The company's economic risk with respect to each investment in CIP is limited to its equity ownership, unfunded equity commitments and any uncollected management and performance fees.
The majority of the company's CIP balances are CLO-related. The collateral assets of the CLOs are held solely to satisfy the obligations of the CLOs. The company has no right to the benefits from, nor does it bear the risks associated with, the collateral assets held by the CLOs beyond the company's direct investments in, and management and performance fees generated from, the CLOs. If the company were to liquidate, the collateral assets would not be available to the general creditors of the company, and as a result, the company does not consider these assets to be company assets. Likewise, the investors in the CLOs have no recourse to the general credit of the company for the notes issued by the CLOs. The company therefore does not consider this debt to be a company liability.
Due to the significant impact that CIP has on the presentation of the company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, the company has elected to deconsolidate these products in its non-GAAP disclosures (among other adjustments).

The following discussion therefore combines the results presented under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (U.S. GAAP) with the company’s non-GAAP presentation.

Investment Capabilities Performance Overview
Invesco's first strategic objective is a commitment to deliver the excellence our clients expect, which includes strong investment performance over the long-term for our clients. The table below presents investment performance of our actively managed investment products measured by the percentage of our AUM in the first and second quartile compared to our peers and above benchmark for the investment capabilities for which peer and benchmark data are available.(1)

(1) Excludes passive products, closed-end funds, private equity limited partnerships, non-discretionary funds, UITs, fund of funds with component funds managed by Invesco, stable value building block funds and collateralized debt obligations. Certain funds and products were excluded from the analysis because of limited benchmark or peer group data. Had these been available, results may have been different. These results are preliminary and subject to revision.
AUM measured in the one, three and five year quartile rankings represents 37%, 37% and 37% of total Invesco AUM, respectively, and AUM measured versus benchmark on a one, three and five year basis represents 48%, 47%, and 45% of total Invesco AUM as of 12/31/2024. Peer group ranking are sourced from a widely-used third party ranking agency in each fund’s market (Morningstar, IA, Lipper, eVestment, Mercer, Galaxy, SITCA, Value Research) and asset-weighted in USD. Rankings are as of prior quarter-end for most institutional products and prior month-end for Australian retail funds due to their late release by third parties. Rankings are calculated against all funds in each peer group. Rankings for the primary share class of the most representative fund in each composite are applied to all products within each composite. Performance assumes the reinvestment of dividends. Past performance is not indicative of future results and may not reflect an investor’s experience.
Assets Under Management
The following presentation and discussion of AUM includes Passive and Active AUM. Passive AUM include index-based ETFs, UITs, non-management fee earning AUM and other passive mandates. Active AUM are Total AUM less Passive AUM.
Non-management fee earning AUM includes non-management fee earning ETFs, UITs and product leverage. The net flows in non-management fee earning AUM can be relatively short-term in nature and, due to the relatively low revenue yield, these net flows can have a significant impact on overall net revenue yield.
The AUM tables and the discussion below refer to certain AUM as long-term. Long-term inflows and the underlying reasons for the movements in this line item include investments from new clients, existing clients adding new accounts/funds or contributions/subscriptions into existing accounts/funds. Long-term outflows reflect client redemptions from accounts/funds and include the return of invested capital upon maturity. We present net flows into money market funds separately because shareholders of those funds typically use them as short-term funding vehicles and the flows are particularly sensitive to short-term interest rate movements.

____________
(1) U.S. GAAP gross revenue yield on AUM is equal to U.S. GAAP annualized total operating revenues divided by average AUM, excluding IGW AUM. The average AUM for IGW was $88.6 billion in 2024 (2023: $87.2 billion, 2022: $93.5 billion). It is appropriate to exclude the average AUM of IGW as the revenues resulting from these AUM are not presented in our U.S. GAAP operating revenues. Additionally, the U.S. GAAP gross revenue yield is not a good measure because the numerator excludes the management fees earned from CIP; however, the denominator of the measure includes the AUM of these investment products. Net revenue yield metrics include the net revenues and average AUM of IGW and CIP. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for a reconciliation of operating revenues to net revenues.
(2) Performance fees are earned when certain performance metrics are achieved; Invesco QQQ Trust does not earn net revenues. Therefore, net revenue yield is calculated excluding performance fees and Invesco QQQ Trust AUM. Passive net revenue yield is calculated excluding Invesco QQQ Trust AUM.
Flows
There are numerous drivers of AUM inflows and outflows, including individual investor decisions to change investment preferences, fiduciaries and other gatekeepers making broad asset allocation decisions on behalf of their clients, and reallocation of investments within portfolios. We are not a party to these asset allocation decisions, as the company does not generally have access to the underlying investor's decision-making process, including their risk appetite or liquidity needs. Therefore, the company is not in a position to provide meaningful information regarding the drivers of inflows and outflows.

Market Returns
Market gains and losses include the net change in AUM resulting from changes in market values of the underlying securities from period to period. The table in the “Executive Overview” section of this Management's Discussion and Analysis summarizes returns based on price appreciation/(depreciation) of several major market indices for the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Foreign Exchange Rates
During the year ended December 31, 2024, we experienced a decrease in AUM of $16.3 billion due to changes in foreign exchange rates (December 31, 2023: AUM decreased $0.4 billion; December 31, 2022: AUM decreased $26.1 billion).

(1) Total Revenue Adjustments remove pass through investment management fees, service and distribution fees, and other revenues and equal the same amount as the Third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses.
(2) See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional important disclosures regarding the use of net revenues.
Our revenues are directly influenced by the level and composition of our AUM. Therefore, movements in global capital market levels, net inflows (or outflows), and changes in the mix of investment products between asset classes and geographies may materially affect our revenues from period to period. See the company’s disclosures regarding the changes in AUM during the year ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 in the “Assets Under Management” section above for additional information.
Average AUM were $1,712.2 billion for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $1,500.6 billion for the year ended December 31, 2023. As secular shifts in client demand continue, our broad set of investment capabilities have allowed us to capture evolving client product preferences, including products that have lower net revenue yields. Due to this change in the mix of AUM, net revenue yield excluding performance fees and Invesco QQQ Trust declined to 30.2 basis points (bps) for the year ended December 31, 2024 from 32.4 bps for the year ended December 31, 2023.
In addition, as fee rates differ across geographic locations, changes to the mix of AUM between geographies and exchange rates have an impact on operating revenues and net revenue yields.
Investment Management Fees
Investment management fees were $4,342.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $4,106.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 as a result of higher average AUM partially offset by the shift in AUM toward lower yield products. See discussion above on how AUM changes impact our Investment management fees.

Service and Distribution Fees
For the year ended December 31, 2024, Service and distribution fees were $1,479.7 million as compared to $1,374.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by higher distribution fees of $91.2 million and administrative fees of $12.9 million resulting from higher average AUM to which the fees apply.
Performance Fees
For the years ended December 31, 2024, Performance fees were $46.4 million as compared to $46.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. Performance fees for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were primarily generated from multi-asset/other, private markets real estate and fundamental equities products.
Other Revenues
For the year ended December 31, 2024, Other revenues were $198.6 million as compared to $189.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in Other revenues was primarily driven by higher front end fees of $10.0 million and real estate transaction fees of $4.1 million, partially offset by lower other transaction fees of $4.6 million.
Invesco Great Wall
The company’s most significant joint venture is our investment in IGW. The company reflects 100% of IGW's results in its Net revenues and Adjusted operating expenses because it is important to evaluate the contribution that IGW is making to the business. The company’s non-GAAP operating results reflect the economics of these holdings on a basis consistent with the underlying AUM and flows. Adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. is reduced by the amount of earnings attributable to the noncontrolling interests. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional disclosures regarding the use of Net revenues.
Net revenues from IGW were $318.1 million and average AUM was $88.6 billion for the year ended December 31, 2024 (Net revenues were $368.3 million and average AUM was $87.2 billion, for the year ended December 31, 2023). The decrease in IGW revenues was primarily driven by the shift in AUM toward lower yield products and the introduction of regulatory mandated fee reductions in China in August 2023.
CIP
Management believes that the consolidation of investment products may impact a reader's analysis of our underlying results of operations and could result in investor confusion or the production of information about the company by analysts or external credit rating agencies that is not reflective of the underlying results of operations and financial condition of the company. Accordingly, management believes that it is appropriate to adjust operating revenues for the impact of CIP in calculating Net revenues. As Management and Performance fees earned by Invesco from the consolidated products are eliminated upon consolidation of the investment products, management believes that it is appropriate to add these Operating revenues back in the calculation of Net revenues. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional disclosures regarding the use of Net revenues.
Management and Performance fees earned from CIP were $41.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2024, as compared to $51.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.

(1) Comparative periods presented reflect reclassification of certain operating expenses to align with current period presentation. The reclassification had no impact on our reported Operating revenues, Operating income, Net income, or any internal performance measure on which management is compensated. See Note 1, "Accounting Policies," for additional information.
(2) Transaction, integration and restructuring charges were primarily restructuring costs relating to our strategic evaluation which we completed in the first quarter of 2023.
Operating expenses decreased $916.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. The year ended December 31, 2023 included a $1,248.9 million non-cash impairment of our indefinite-lived intangible assets related to prior acquisitions of management contracts of U.S. retail mutual funds. The year ended December 31, 2024 included a one-time acceleration of $147.6 million in Employee compensation expense resulting from changes to the retirement criteria for vesting of currently outstanding common share-based awards and other long-term awards (collectively, Long-term awards). Excluding the intangible asset impairment charge for the year ended December 31, 2023 and the acceleration of Employee compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2024, Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased $185.0 million as compared to the year ended December 31, 2023.

Third-Party Distribution, Service and Advisory
Third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses include periodic “renewal” commissions which are paid to brokers and independent financial advisors for providing services to their client accounts while they are invested in an Invesco product. Renewal commissions are calculated based upon a percentage of the AUM value and apply to much of the company's non-U.S. retail operations. The revenues from the company’s U.S. retail operations include 12b-1 distribution fees, which are largely passed through to brokers who sell the funds as third-party distribution expenses along with additional marketing support distribution costs. Both the revenues and the costs are dependent on the underlying AUM of the brokers' clients. The upfront distribution commissions are amortized over the redemption period. Also included in Third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses are sub-transfer agency fees that are paid to third parties for processing client common share purchases and redemptions, call center support and client reporting. These costs are reimbursed by the related funds.
Third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses were $2,025.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $1,825.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to increases of $112.9 million in service costs and $86.3 million in administrative and other third-party management fees resulting from higher average AUM and fund related costs. See "Schedule of Non-GAAP Information" for additional disclosures.
Employee Compensation
Employee compensation includes salary, cash bonuses and long-term incentive plans designed to attract and retain the highest caliber employees. Employee staff benefit plan costs and payroll taxes are also included in Employee compensation.
Employee compensation was $2,014.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $1,885.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to the previously noted acceleration of expense for currently outstanding Long-term awards of $147.6 million, higher variable compensation costs of $47.5 million and an increase of $29.2 million in expense related to the mark-to-market on deferred compensation liabilities. The increase was partially offset by lower costs related to executive retirements and organizational changes of $82.5 million.
Headcount at December 31, 2024 was 8,508 (December 31, 2023; 8,489).
Marketing
Marketing expenses include the cost of direct advertising of our products through trade publications, television and other media, and public relations costs, such as the marketing of the company's products through conferences or other sponsorships.
Marketing expenses were $81.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $82.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Property, Office and Technology
Property, office and technology expenses include rent and utilities for our various leased facilities, depreciation of company-owned property, equipment and software, and other technology expenses including maintenance and licensing fees.
Property, office and technology expenses were $474.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $450.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to higher software costs of $21.2 million.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses include information service subscriptions, irrecoverable indirect taxes, employee travel, professional fees, recruitment and training costs as well as costs for outsourced services such as technology, middle office and back office management services.
General and administrative expenses were $594.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $567.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to a $52.5 million expense related to the settlement of regulatory matters partially offset by lower professional fees of $28.1 million.

Amortization and impairment of intangible assets
Amortization of intangible assets was $44.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $49.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The year ended December 31, 2023 included a $1,248.9 million non-cash impairment of our indefinite-lived intangible assets related to management contracts of U.S. retail mutual funds.
Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Income, Operating Margin and Adjusted Operating Margin
Operating income was $832.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2024, as compared to an operating loss of $434.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. Operating margin (operating income divided by operating revenues) increased to 13.7% for the year ended December 31, 2024 from (7.6)% in the year ended December 31, 2023. The operating loss for the year ended December 31, 2023 was primarily due to the $1,248.9 million intangible asset impairment as discussed above.
Adjusted operating income increased to $1,370.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 from $1,213.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. Adjusted operating margin increased to 31.1% for the year ended December 31, 2024 from 28.2% for the year ended December 31, 2023. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for a reconciliation of Operating revenues to Net revenues, a reconciliation of Operating income to Adjusted operating income and additional important disclosures regarding Net revenues, Adjusted operating income and Adjusted operating margin.
Other Income and Expenses
The main categories of other income and expenses, and the dollar and percentage changes between periods are as follows:

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates decreased to $43.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $71.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in income of $13.5 million from our joint venture investment in IGW and $9.6 million from our private markets real estate investments.
Interest and dividend income
Interest and dividend income was $58.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $47.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to an increase in dividend income earned on our private markets, deferred compensation and seed capital investments and higher interest income earned from Cash and cash equivalents.
Interest expense
Interest expense was $58.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $70.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 as a result of the decrease in outstanding debt.
Other gains and losses, net
Other gains and losses, net was a gain of $47.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to a net gain of $98.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The net gains for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 included net market gains on deferred compensation related investments, other hedging instruments, and seed capital investments. The net gain for the year ended December 31, 2023 also included a $45 million gain on the sale of certain Hong Kong pension sponsorship rights.

Other income/(expense) of CIP, net
Other income/(expense) of CIP, net includes interest and dividend income, interest expense, and realized and unrealized gains and losses on the underlying investments and debt owned by CIP. For the year ended December 31, 2024, net interest income of CIP was $139.5 million as compared to $226.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in net interest income was primarily a result of newly consolidated investment products in the year ended December 31, 2023 which were deconsolidated in the year ended December 31, 2024 as well as lower net interest income earned by the CLOs. For the year ended December 31, 2024, other gains and losses of CIP were a net loss of $57.9 million as compared to a net loss of $176.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The net losses for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were attributable to market-driven losses on investments held by consolidated funds.
Net impact of CIP and related noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities
The adjustment to Net income for the Net income/(loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities removes the income/(expense) of CIP which is attributable to third-party investors. Therefore, the consolidation of investment products did not have an impact on Net income attributable to Invesco for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. Also, the net income or loss of CIP is taxed at the investor level, not at the product level; therefore, a tax provision is not reflected in the net impact of CIP.
Income Tax Expense
The income tax provision was an expense of $252.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to a benefit of $(69.7) million for the year ended December 31, 2023, resulting in effective tax rates of 25.2% and 29.3% for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The higher effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2023 was primarily a result of favorable permanent tax adjustments increasing the effective tax due to the pre-tax book loss in 2023. The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2024 was unfavorably impacted by nondeductible regulatory settlements and an increase in the valuation allowance recorded against certain net operating losses. For additional income tax information, please refer to Note 14, “Taxation,” in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

Schedule of Non-GAAP Information
We utilize the following non-GAAP performance measures: Net revenue (and by calculation, Net revenue yield on AUM), Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income attributable to Invesco and Adjusted diluted EPS. The company believes the adjusted measures provide valuable insight into the company’s ongoing operational performance and assist in comparisons to its competitors. These measures also assist the company’s management with the establishment of operational budgets and forecasts. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures are Operating revenues (and by calculation, Gross revenue yield on AUM), Operating income, Operating margin, Net income/(loss) attributable to Invesco and Diluted EPS. Each of these measures is discussed more fully below.
The following are reconciliations of the U.S. GAAP measures to the non-GAAP measures. The non-GAAP measures should not be considered as substitutes for any U.S. GAAP measures and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Additional reconciling items may be added in the future to the non-GAAP measures if deemed appropriate. The tax effects related to the reconciling items have been calculated based on the tax rate attributable to the jurisdiction to which the transaction relates. Notes to the reconciliations follow the tables.

____________
(1) Revenue adjustments: The company calculates Net revenues by reducing Operating revenues to exclude fees that are passed through to external parties who perform functions on behalf of, and distribute, the company’s managed funds. The Net revenue presentation assists in identifying the revenue contribution generated by the company, removing distortions caused by the differing distribution channel fees and allowing for a fair comparison with U.S. peer investment managers and within Invesco’s own investment units. Additionally, management evaluates Net revenue yield on AUM, which is equal to Net revenues divided by Average AUM during the reporting period, as an indicator of the Net revenues we receive for each dollar of AUM we manage.
Investment management fees are adjusted by renewal commissions and certain administrative fees. Service and distributions fees are primarily adjusted by distribution fees passed through to broker dealers for certain share classes and pass through fund-related costs. Other revenues are primarily adjusted by transaction fees passed through to third parties.
(2) Invesco Great Wall: The company reflects 100% of IGW in its Net revenues and Adjusted operating income (and by calculation, Adjusted operating margin). The company’s non-GAAP operating results reflect the economics of these holdings on a basis consistent with the underlying AUM and flows. Adjusted net income is reduced by the amount of earning attributable to the noncontrolling interests.
(3) CIP: See Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 18, “Consolidated Investment Products,” for a detailed analysis of the impact to the company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements from the consolidation of CIP. The company believes that the CIP may impact a reader’s analysis of our underlying results of operations and could result in investor confusion or the production of information about the company by analysts or external credit rating agencies that is not reflective of the underlying results of operations and financial condition of the company. Accordingly, the company believes that it is appropriate to adjust Operating revenues and Operating income for the impact of CIP in calculating the respective Net revenues and Adjusted operating income (and by calculation, Adjusted operating margin).
(4) Transaction, integration and restructuring: The company believes it is useful to adjust for the Transaction, integration and restructuring charges in arriving at Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted diluted EPS, as this will aid comparability of our results period to period, and aid comparability with peer companies that may not have similar acquisition and restructuring related charges. Transaction, integration and restructuring charges were primarily restructuring costs relating to our strategic evaluation which we completed in the first quarter of 2023.
(5) Amortization and impairment of intangible assets: The company removes amortization and non-cash impairment expense related to acquired assets in arriving at Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS, as this will aid comparability of our results period to period, and aid comparability with peer companies that may not have similar acquisition-related charges.
(6) Market valuation changes related to deferred compensation plan liabilities: Certain deferred compensation plan awards provide a return to the employee linked to the appreciation (depreciation) of specified investments. The company economically hedges the exposure to market movements on these deferred compensation liabilities. Since these liabilities are economically hedged, the company believes it is useful to remove the market movements related to the deferred compensation plan liabilities from the calculation of Adjusted operating income (and by calculation, Adjusted operating margin) and to remove the net impact of the economic hedge from the calculation of Adjusted net income (and by calculation, Adjusted diluted EPS) to produce results that will be more comparable period to period.

(7) One-time acceleration of compensation expense for currently outstanding Long-term awards: In the third quarter of 2024, the company recorded a one-time non-cash acceleration of Compensation expense of $147.6 million resulting from changes to the retirement criteria for vesting of currently outstanding Long-term awards. Due to the non-recurring nature of this item, the company removed this expense in arriving at Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted diluted EPS as this will aid comparability of our results period to period.
(8) General and administrative: In 2024, the company removed the expense related to the settlement of regulatory matters. In 2023 and 2022, the company removed insurance recoveries related to fund-related losses incurred in prior periods. Due to the non-recurring nature of these items, the company removed these expenses in arriving at Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS as this will aid comparability of our results period to period.
(9) Operating margin is equal to Operating income divided by Operating revenues.
(10) Adjusted operating margin is equal to Adjusted operating income divided by Net revenues.
(11) Tax adjustment for amortization of intangible assets and goodwill: The company reflects the tax benefit realized on the tax amortization of goodwill and intangible assets in Adjusted net income. The company believes it is useful to include this tax benefit in arriving at the Adjusted diluted EPS measure.
(12) Adjusted diluted EPS is equal to Adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. divided by the weighted average number of common and restricted common shares outstanding.

See "Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” and Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 1, “Accounting Policies,” for additional information.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our capital structure, together with available cash balances, cash flows generated from operations, existing capacity under our revolving credit agreement and further capital market activities, if necessary, should provide us with sufficient resources to meet present and future cash needs, including operating expenses, debt and other obligations as they come due and anticipated future capital requirements.

On January 30, 2024, Invesco Finance PLC, a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Parent, paid in full the outstanding balance of the $600.0 million senior notes which were due on January 30, 2024. As of December 31, 2024, the balance on the $2.0 billion revolving credit agreement was zero.
In the ordinary course of business, Invesco enters into contracts or purchase obligations with third parties whereby the third parties provide services to or on behalf of Invesco. Purchase obligations represent fixed-price contracts, which are either non-cancelable or cancellable with a penalty. As of December 31, 2024, the company's purchase obligations totaled $694.4 million (December 31, 2023: $663.5 million) and primarily reflect standard service contracts for portfolio, market data, office-related services and third-party marketing and promotional services. Purchase obligations are recorded as liabilities in the company's Consolidated Financial Statements when services are provided.

Capital Management
Our capital management priorities have evolved with the growth and success of our business and include, in no particular order of priority: reinvestment in the business, maintaining a strong balance sheet and returning capital to shareholders longer term through a combination of share repurchases and modestly increasing dividends.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the company repurchased 2.9 million common shares for $49.6 million in the open market. As of December 31, 2024, approximately $332.6 million remained authorized under the company’s common share repurchase authorization approved by the Board on July 22, 2016.
Our capital process is executed in a manner consistent with our desire to maintain strong, investment grade credit ratings. As of the date of our filing, Invesco held credit ratings of BBB+/Stable, A3/Stable and A/Stable from S&P Ratings Service, Moody’s Investor Services and Fitch Ratings, respectively.
Other Items
Certain of our subsidiaries are required to maintain minimum levels of regulatory capital, liquidity, and working capital. Such requirements may change from time-to-time as additional guidance is released based on a variety of factors, including balance sheet composition, assessment of risk exposures and governance, and review from regulators. These and other similar provisions of applicable laws and regulations may have the effect of limiting withdrawals of capital, repayment of intercompany loans and payment of dividends by such entities. Our financial condition or liquidity could be adversely affected if certain of our subsidiaries are unable to distribute funds to us.
We are in compliance with all regulatory minimum net capital requirements. As of December 31, 2024, the company's minimum regulatory capital requirement was $324.9 million (December 31, 2023: $395.8 million).
We meet the regulatory liquidity and working capital requirements by holding cash and cash equivalents in the European sub-group. This retained cash can be used for general business purposes in the European sub-group in the countries where it is located. Due to the liquidity and working capital requirements, the ability to transfer cash between certain jurisdictions may be limited. In addition, transfers of cash between international jurisdictions may have adverse tax consequences.
The consolidation of $8,374.5 million and $6,200.9 million of total assets and debt of CIP as of December 31, 2024, respectively, did not impact the company’s liquidity and capital resources. See Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 18, “Consolidated Investment Products,” for additional details.

____________
(1) These tables include non-GAAP presentations. Cash held by CIP is not available for use by Invesco. Additionally, there is no recourse to Invesco for CIP debt. The cash flows of CIP do not form part of the company’s cash flow management processes, nor do they form part of the company’s significant liquidity evaluations and decisions.
Operating Activities
Operating cash flows include the receipt of Investment management and other fees generated from AUM, offset by Operating expenses and changes in operating assets and liabilities. After allowing for the change in cash held by CIP, investment activities, non-cash activity, and seasonal payments, such as bonus payments in the first quarter, our operating cash flows generally move in the same direction as our Operating income/(loss).
Cash inflows for the year ended December 31, 2024, excluding the impact of CIP, were primarily driven by operating income and changes in payables and receivables due to the timing of payments and receipts.
Investing Activities
Cash outflows for the year ended December 31, 2024, excluding the impact of CIP, includes purchases of investments of $307.0 million (year ended December 31, 2023: $108.2 million) and property, equipment and software of $69.1 million (year ended December 31, 2023: $164.3 million), partially offset by proceeds of $135.9 million from Capital distributions from equity method investees (year ended December 31, 2023: $28.0 million). The year ended December 31, 2023 also included proceeds of $26.8 million from the Sale of investments and $46.2 million from the sale of certain Hong Kong pension sponsorship rights.
Financing Activities
Financing cash outflows during the year ended December 31, 2024 included $371.5 million of common dividend payments for dividends declared in January, April, July and October 2024 (year ended December 31, 2023: dividends paid of $357.9 million), $236.8 million of preferred dividend payments for dividends declared in January, April, July and October 2024 (year ended December 31, 2023: $236.8 million), $49.6 million for the repurchase of common shares through the open market (year ended December 31, 2023: $150.0 million), and the payment of $29.7 million to meet employees' withholding tax obligations on common share vestings (2023: $37.5 million). Financing cash outflows during the year ended December 31, 2024 also included a $600.0 million redemption of senior notes. Net borrowings under the revolving credit agreement were zero during the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Dividends
When declared, Invesco pays dividends on a quarterly basis in arrears. Holders of our preferred shares are eligible to receive dividends at an annual rate of 5.9% of the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, or $59 per share per annum. The preferred dividend is payable quarterly on a non-cumulative basis when, if and as declared by our Board. However, if we have not declared and paid or set aside for payment full quarterly dividends on the preferred stock for a particular dividend period, we may not declare or pay dividends on, redeem, purchase or acquire our common stock or other junior securities in the next succeeding dividend period. In addition, if we have not declared and paid or set aside for payment quarterly dividends on the preferred stock for six quarterly periods, whether or not consecutive, the number of directors of the company will be increased by two and the holders of the preferred shares shall have the right to elect such two additional members of the Board.
On January 27, 2025, the company declared a fourth quarter 2024 cash dividend of $0.205 per common share to the holders of common shares. The dividend is payable on March 4, 2025, to common shareholders of record at the close of business on February 14, 2025, with an ex-dividend date of February 14, 2025.
On January 27, 2025, the company declared a preferred dividend of $14.75 per preferred share representing the period from December 1, 2024 through February 28, 2025. The preferred dividend is payable on March 3, 2025.
The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will depend upon, among other factors, our earnings, financial condition and capital requirements at the time such declaration and payment are considered. The company has a policy of managing dividends in a prudent fashion, with due consideration given to profit levels, overall debt levels and historical dividend payouts.
Common Share Repurchase Plan
During 2024, the company repurchased 2.9 million shares for $49.6 million in the open market as compared to 9.6 million shares for $150 million during 2023. At December 31, 2024, approximately $332.6 million remained authorized under the company's common share repurchase authorization approved by the Board on July 22, 2016 (December 31, 2023: $382.2 million).
Debt
The carrying value of our debt at December 31, 2024 was $890.6 million (December 31, 2023: $1,489.5 million), See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 8, “Debt,” for additional disclosures.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, the company's weighted average cost of debt was 4.64% (year ended December 31, 2023: 4.28%).
Financial covenants under the revolving credit agreement include: (i) the quarterly maintenance of an Adjusted debt/Earnings before income tax, depreciation, amortization, interest expense, common share-based compensation expense, unrealized (gains)/losses from investments, net, and unusual or otherwise non-recurring gains and losses (Covenant Adjusted EBITDA) leverage ratio, as defined in the revolving credit agreement, of not greater than 3.25:1.00, (ii) an interest coverage ratio (Covenant Adjusted EBITDA/interest expense for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ended before the date of determination) of not less than 4.00:1.00. As of December 31, 2024, we were in compliance with our financial covenants. At December 31, 2024, our leverage ratio was 0.25:1.00 (December 31, 2023: 0.69:1.00), and our interest coverage ratio was 26.84:1.00 (December 31, 2023: 20.40:1.00).

(1) Includes amortization of cloud technology implementation costs.
(2) Unusual or otherwise non-recurring gains and losses, as defined in our revolving credit agreement, are adjusted for in the determination of Covenant Adjusted EBITDA. A one-time acceleration of $147.6 million in expense resulting from changes to the criteria for retirements for currently outstanding Long-term awards and an expense of $52.5 million related to the settlement of regulatory matters in 2024 are non-recurring expenses and have been removed from the determination of Covenant Adjusted EBITDA.
(3) Adjustments for unrealized gains and losses from investments, as defined in our revolving credit agreement, may also include non-cash gains and losses on investments to the extent that they do not represent anticipated future cash receipts or expenditures.
(4) Covenant Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted debt are non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management in connection with certain debt covenant calculations under our revolving credit agreement. The calculation of Covenant Adjusted EBITDA above (a reconciliation from Net income attributable to Invesco Ltd.) is defined by our revolving credit agreement, and therefore Net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. is the most appropriate GAAP measure from which to reconcile to Covenant Adjusted EBITDA. The calculation of 2024 Adjusted debt is defined in our amended revolving credit agreement and equals debt of $890.6 million plus $3.2 million in letters of credit less $500.0 million of excess unrestricted cash (cash and cash equivalents less the minimum regulatory capital requirement, not to exceed $500 million (2023: $500.0 million).
On January 30, 2024, Invesco Finance PLC, a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Parent, paid in full the outstanding balance of the $600.0 million senior notes which were due on January 30, 2024.
The discussion that follows identifies risks associated with the company's liquidity and capital resources. The Item 1. Business - Risk Management section contains a broader discussion of the company's overall approach to risk management.
Credit and Liquidity Risk
The company manages its capital by reviewing annual and projected cash flow forecasts and by monitoring credit, liquidity and market risks, such as interest rate and foreign currency risks (as discussed in Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk”), through measurement and analysis.
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to meet an obligation. The company is primarily exposed to credit risk through its cash and cash equivalent deposits, which are held by external firms. The company invests its cash balances in its own institutional money market products, as well as with external high credit-quality financial institutions. These arrangements create exposure to concentrations of credit risk. As of December 31, 2024, our maximum exposure to credit risk related to our Cash and cash equivalent balances is $986.5 million, of which $479.3 million is invested in affiliated money market funds. See Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 2, "Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities" for information regarding Cash and cash equivalents invested in affiliated money market funds.
56
Table of Contents
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities as the same become due. The company is exposed to liquidity risk through its $890.6 million in total debt. The company actively manages liquidity risk by preparing cash flow forecasts for future periods, reviewing them regularly with senior management, maintaining a committed revolving credit agreement, scheduling significant gaps between major debt maturities and engaging external financing sources in regular dialogue.
Effects of Inflation
Inflation can impact our organization primarily in two ways. First, inflationary pressures can result in increases in our cost structure, especially to the extent that large expense components such as compensation are impacted. To the degree that these expense increases are not recoverable or cannot be counterbalanced through pricing increases due to the competitive environment, our net income could be negatively impacted. Secondly, the value of the assets that we manage may be negatively impacted when inflationary expectations result in a rising interest rate environment. A decline in the value of AUM could lead to reduced revenues as management fees are generally calculated based upon the value of AUM.
Off Balance Sheet Commitments
See Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 17, “Commitments and Contingencies,” for more information regarding undrawn capital commitments.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 1, “Accounting Policies." Critical accounting policies and estimates are those that require complex management judgment regarding matters that are highly uncertain at the time policies were applied and estimates were made. Different estimates reasonably could have been used in the current period that would have had a material effect on these Consolidated Financial Statements, and changes in these estimates are likely to occur from period-to-period in the future. The discussion below provides information on the significant judgments and assumptions applied in each area and should be read in conjunction with the significant accounting policies footnote previously referenced.
Intangible Assets
Management has the option to first assess indefinite-lived intangible assets for qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test. Definite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable (i.e., the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the intangible asset). In addition, management's judgment is required to estimate the period over which definite-lived intangible assets will contribute to the company's cash flows and the pattern in which these assets will be consumed. A change in the remaining useful life of any of these assets, or the reclassification of an indefinite-lived intangible asset to a definite-lived intangible asset, could have a significant impact on the company's amortization expense.
Intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment annually as of October 1 or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. If a quantitative assessment is required, the impairment test consists of a comparison of the fair value of an intangible asset to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. Management used an income approach to value indefinite-lived intangible assets related to acquired management contracts of U.S. retail mutual funds. An income approach includes assumptions for current market conditions, including the asset’s updated forecasts of AUM to take into consideration market gains or losses, net long-term flows and the corresponding changes in revenue and expenses. The most sensitive assumptions used in the income approach are the long-term growth rate and the discount rate applied to the cash flow forecast to determine present value. Taking into consideration the AUM mix of the U.S. retail mutual funds, the long-term growth rate was determined using the historical returns of the S&P 500 index, treasury bonds and treasury bills. The long-term growth rate used by management in the annual impairment test was 2.5% and is consistent with the prior year annual impairment test. The discount rate is an estimate of the weighted average cost of capital for the investment management sector reflecting the overall industry risks associated with future cash flows and considers an applicable size premium for the intangible asset. The discount rate used by management was 12.88%, which declined 17 bps from the prior year primarily due to a decrease in the risk-free rate. We continued to factor an asset-specific risk premium into the discount rate for the U.S. retail mutual fund indefinite-lived intangible assets to account for the uncertainty around future AUM flows given the continued shift

in investor preferences away from actively managed funds. We assessed the reasonableness of the estimated fair value of the intangible assets by considering applicable market data.
Based on our annual impairment analysis as of October 1, 2024, we determined that the estimated fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets related to acquired management contracts of U.S. retail mutual funds exceeded its carrying value of $4,572.1 million by $267.4 million or 6%. Headroom increased from the prior year due to favorable market conditions and a decrease in the discount rate. While the company believes all assumptions utilized in our assessment are reasonable and appropriate, changes in these estimates could produce different fair value amounts which could drive impairment in future periods. For example, assuming all other assumptions remain static, a decrease to the long-term growth rate of 25 bps would decrease headroom to $178.1 million or 3.9%. Also, an increase to the discount rate of 15 bps would decrease headroom to $206.2 million or 4.5%.
Our annual impairment reviews of our other indefinite-lived intangible assets determined that there was not an impairment of these intangibles. The classifications of indefinite-lived and definite-lived intangible assets remain appropriate, and no changes to the expected lives of definite-lived intangible assets were required.
Goodwill
Management has the option to first assess goodwill for qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test. We performed a quantitative annual impairment test as of October 1, 2023 and determined that the estimated fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by 5%. For our annual impairment test in 2024, management performed the optional qualitative approach. Based on our annual impairment analysis of goodwill as of October 1, 2024, we determined that a quantitative assessment of the goodwill impairment test was not necessary. The qualitative impairment analysis indicated that headroom improved from the prior year impairment test due to improved profitability, favorable market conditions and a decrease in the discount rate.
The company cannot predict the occurrence of future events that might adversely affect the reported value of goodwill of $8,318.1 million at December 31, 2024. Such events include, but are not limited to, strategic decisions made in response to economic and competitive conditions or a significant decline in our revenue and operating income due to a change in AUM mix or unfavorable market conditions, including a significant decline in our stock price for an extended period of time. However, an impairment in the future would not impact the company’s liquidity or capital resources.
Income Taxes
The company files U.S. federal, state and numerous foreign income tax returns. The income tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations by the taxpayer and the relevant taxing authorities. Significant judgment is required in the determination of our annual income tax provision, which includes the assessment of deferred tax assets and uncertain tax positions, as well as the interpretation and application of existing and newly enacted tax laws, regulation changes and new judicial rulings. Therefore, it is possible that actual results will vary from those recognized in our Consolidated Financial Statements due to changes in the interpretation of applicable guidance or as a result of examinations by taxing authorities.
Deferred tax assets, net of any associated valuation allowance, have been recognized based on management's belief that taxable income of the appropriate character, more likely than not, will be sufficient to realize the benefits of these assets over time. In the event that actual results differ from our expectations, or if our historical trends of positive operating income changes, we may be required to record a valuation allowance on some or all of these deferred tax assets, which may have a significant effect on our financial condition and results of operations. In assessing whether a valuation allowance should be established against a deferred income tax asset, the company considers all available evidence, which includes the nature, frequency and severity of recent losses, forecasts of future profitability and the duration of statutory carry back and carry forward periods, among other factors.
In the assessment of uncertain tax positions, significant judgment is required to estimate the range of possible outcomes and determine the probability, on a more likely than not basis, of favorable or unfavorable outcomes upon ultimate settlement of an issue. Changes in the estimate of uncertain tax positions occur periodically due to changes in interpretations of tax laws, the status of examinations by tax authorities and new regulatory or judicial guidance that could impact the relative merits and risk of tax positions. These changes, when they occur, impact tax expense and can materially impact results of operations. The company recognizes any interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits (UTBs) on the Consolidated Statements of Income as components of income tax expense.

CIP
Assessing if an entity is a variable interest entity (VIE) or voting interest entity (VOE) involves judgment and analysis on a structure-by-structure basis. Factors assessed as part of the analysis include the legal organization of the entity, the company's contractual involvement with the entity and any related party or de facto agent implications of the company's involvement with the entity. If the company is deemed to have the power to direct the activities of the fund that most significantly impact the fund's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses/right to receive benefits from the fund that could potentially be significant to the fund, then the company is deemed to be the fund's primary beneficiary and is required to consolidate the fund. Assessing if the company has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the fund’s economic results may involve significant judgment.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The discussion and analysis disclosed herein apply to material changes in the Consolidated Financial Statements for 2023 and 2022. For the comparison of 2022 and 2021, see the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part II, Item 7 of the company’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 22, 2023. The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of Invesco should be read in conjunction with the “Forward-looking Statements” disclosure set forth before Part I and the “Risk Factors” set forth in Item 1A of Part I of this Annual Report on Form 10‑K, each of which describe our risks, uncertainties and other important factors in more detail.
Executive Overview
The following executive overview summarizes the significant trends affecting our results of operations and financial condition for the periods presented. This overview and the remainder of this management's discussion and analysis and supplements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Invesco Ltd. and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
During the year, global capital markets improved; however, the improvement was uneven and undercut by geopolitical events. Investors also reacted to the impact of persistently high interest rates and inflation in most major economies and moved significant amounts of assets to the sidelines to await greater clarity. The table below summarizes the year ended December 31 returns based on price appreciation/(depreciation) of several major market indices for 2023 and 2022:

The company’s financial results are impacted by the fluctuations in exchange rates against the U.S. Dollar, as discussed in the “Results of Operations” section as applicable.
One of Invesco's core strengths, and a key differentiator for the company within the industry, is our diversification across asset classes, distribution channels and geographies. This broad diversification helps mitigate some of the impact on Invesco of different market cycles and enables the company to take advantage of growth opportunities in various markets and channels. During the year, our diversified product lineup maintained net long-term inflows with our strongest performance in ETFs.
We remain highly focused on our capital priorities, investing in our key capabilities, and efficiently allocating resources. Consistent with our commitment to improve our leverage profile, we continue to maintain our debt at lower levels. We ended the year with no balance on our floating rate credit agreement and our Cash and cash equivalents balance increased to $1.5 billion. We amended and restated the floating rate credit agreement, increasing facility capacity from $1.5 billion to $2.0 billion and extending the expiration date from April 26, 2026 to April 26, 2028. The Board approved a 7% increase in our quarterly dividend to $0.20 per share, and the company repurchased 9.6 million common shares for $150.0 million in the open market during the second quarter of 2023. The progress we made to build financial flexibility has Invesco well-positioned to navigate various market conditions and deliver long-term growth. We remain committed to returning capital to shareholders longer term through a combination of modestly increasing dividends and share repurchases.
We are simplifying and streamlining the organization to better position the company for greater scale, performance and improved profitability. During the year we established a unified, globally integrated fixed income platform. We created a single, highly focused multi-asset group from what was previously operated through three distinct teams. We are also bringing together leadership across our fundamental active equity teams and are further strengthening our private markets platform. Notably,

these simplification efforts will enable us to more fully leverage the benefits of our State Street Alpha platform, which we have begun to test, as a single global investment operation engine across asset classes. Further, we have combined our ETF, SMA and model portfolios efforts into a single group to manage these high growth potential investment vehicles. And we have globalized many aspects of our marketing and digital delivery, consolidating our efforts across the organization. These efforts are intended to drive revenue growth, improve investment quality, reallocate our expenses and capital base and help deliver profitable growth. Also, through these efforts, we expect to reduce our expense base by $50 million in 2024.
As previously disclosed, Martin L. Flanagan retired as President and CEO of the company and as a member of the Board of Directors effective June 30, 2023. Andrew R. Schlossberg succeeded Mr. Flanagan as President and CEO and as a member of the Board of Directors effective June 30, 2023.
Presentation of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Impact of Consolidated Investment Products (CIP)
The company provides investment management services to, and has transactions with, retail mutual funds and other investment products sponsored by the company for the investment of client assets in the normal course of business. The company serves as the investment manager, making day-to-day investment decisions concerning the assets of the products. The company is required to consolidate certain of these managed funds from time-to-time, as discussed more fully in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 1, "Accounting Policies -- Basis of Accounting and Consolidation." Investment products that are consolidated are referred to in this Report as CIP. The company's economic risk with respect to each investment in CIP is limited to its equity ownership, unfunded equity commitments and any uncollected management and performance fees.
The majority of the company's CIP balances are CLO-related. The collateral assets of the CLOs are held solely to satisfy the obligations of the CLOs. The company has no right to the benefits from, nor does it bear the risks associated with, the collateral assets held by the CLOs, beyond the company's direct investments in, and management and performance fees generated from the CLOs. If the company were to liquidate, the collateral assets would not be available to the general creditors of the company, and as a result, the company does not consider them to be company assets. Likewise, the investors in the CLOs have no recourse to the general credit of the company for the notes issued by the CLOs. The company therefore does not consider this debt to be a company liability.
Due to the significant impact that CIP has on the presentation of the company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, the company has elected to deconsolidate these products in its non-GAAP disclosures (among other adjustments). See "Schedule of Non-GAAP Information" for additional information regarding these adjustments. The following discussion therefore combines the results presented under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (U.S. GAAP) with the company’s non-GAAP presentation.
To assess the impact of CIP on the company's Results of Operations and Balance Sheet Discussion, refer to Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 19, "Consolidated Investment Products."

(1) Excludes passive products, closed-end funds, private equity limited partnerships, non-discretionary funds, UITs, fund of funds with component funds managed by Invesco, stable value building block funds and collateralized debt obligations. Certain funds and products were excluded from the analysis because of limited benchmark or peer group data. Had these been available, results may have been different. These results are preliminary and subject to revision.
AUM measured versus benchmark on a one, three, five and ten year basis represents 54%, 54%, 50% and 45% of total Invesco AUM, respectively, and AUM measured versus peer group on a one, three, five and ten year quartile rankings represents 42%, 42%, 42% and 38% of total Invesco AUM as of December 31, 2023. Peer group rankings are sourced from a widely-used third-party ranking agency in each fund’s market (e.g., Morningstar, IA, Lipper, eVestment, Mercer, Galaxy, SITCA, Value Research) and asset-weighted in USD. Rankings are as of prior quarter-end for most institutional products and prior month-end for Australian retail funds due to their late release by third parties. Rankings are calculated against all funds in each peer group. Rankings for the primary share class of the most representative fund in each composite are applied to all products within each composite. Performance assumes the reinvestment of dividends. Past performance is not indicative of future results and may not reflect an investor’s experience.
(2) Numbers in parentheses reflect AUM for each investment product (see Note 1 above for exclusions) as a percentage of the total AUM for the five year peer group ($661.9 billion).
Assets Under Management
The following presentation and discussion of AUM includes Passive and Active AUM. Passive AUM include index-based ETFs, UITs, non-management fee earning AUM and other passive mandates. Active AUM are Total AUM less Passive AUM.
Non-management fee earning AUM includes non-management fee earning ETFs, UITs and product leverage. The net flows in non-management fee earning AUM can be relatively short-term in nature and, due to the relatively low revenue yield, these can have a significant impact on overall net revenue yield.

Table of Contents
The AUM tables and the discussion below refer to certain AUM as long-term. Long-term inflows and the underlying reasons for the movements in this line item include investments from new clients, existing clients adding new accounts/funds or contributions/subscriptions into existing accounts/funds. Long-term outflows reflect client redemptions from accounts/funds and include the return of invested capital upon maturity. We present net flows into money market funds separately because shareholders of those funds typically use them as short-term funding vehicles and the flows are particularly sensitive to short-term interest rate movements.
Changes in AUM by Investment approach were as follows:

____________
(1) U.S. GAAP gross revenue yield is not considered a meaningful effective fee rate measure. Gross revenue yield on AUM is equal to U.S. GAAP annualized total operating revenues divided by average AUM, excluding IGW AUM. It is appropriate to exclude the average AUM of IGW as the revenues resulting from these AUM are not presented in U.S. GAAP operating revenues. The average AUM for Invesco Great Wall was $87.2 billion in 2023 (2022: $93.5 billion, 2021: $84.0 billion). Additionally, the U.S. GAAP gross revenue yield is not a good measure because the numerator of the U.S. GAAP gross revenue yield excludes the management fees earned from CIP; however, the denominator of the measure includes the AUM of these investment products. Net revenue yield metrics include the net revenues and average AUM of IGW and CIP. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for a reconciliation of operating revenues to net revenues.
(2) Performance fees are earned when certain performance metrics are achieved and QQQ ETFs do not earn net revenues. Therefore, net revenue yield is calculated excluding performance fees and QQQ AUM. Passive net revenue yield is calculated excluding QQQ AUM.

Table of Contents
Flows
There are numerous drivers of AUM inflows and outflows, including individual investor decisions to change investment preferences, fiduciaries and other gatekeepers making broad asset allocation decisions on behalf of their clients, and reallocation of investments within portfolios. We are not a party to these asset allocation decisions, as the company does not generally have access to the underlying investor's decision-making process, including their risk appetite or liquidity needs. Therefore, the company is not in a position to provide meaningful information regarding the drivers of inflows and outflows.
Market Returns
Market gains and losses include the net change in AUM resulting from changes in market values of the underlying securities from period to period. The table in the “Executive Overview” section of this Management's Discussion and Analysis summarizes returns based on price appreciation/(depreciation) of several major market indices for the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Foreign Exchange Rates
During the year ended December 31, 2023, we experienced a decrease in AUM of $0.4 billion due to changes in foreign exchange rates (December 31, 2022: AUM decreased $26.1 billion; December 31, 2021: AUM decreased $6.3 billion).

(1) Total revenue adjustments remove pass through investment management, service and distribution, and other revenues and equal the same amount as the Third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses.
(2) See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional important disclosures regarding the use of net revenues.
Our revenues are directly influenced by the level and composition of our AUM. Therefore, movements in global capital market levels, net business inflows (or outflows), and changes in the mix of investment products between asset classes and geographies may materially affect our revenues from period to period. See the company’s disclosures regarding the changes in AUM during the year ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 in the “Assets Under Management” section above for additional information.
Passive AUM generally earn a lower effective fee rate than active asset classes, and therefore, changes in the mix of AUM have an impact on revenues and net revenue yield. Average AUM were $1,500.6 billion for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $1,452.5 billion for the year ended December 31, 2022. During 2023, investors continued to shift AUM toward lower yield passive products, such as ETFs. As a result, net revenue yield excluding performance fees and QQQ declined from 35.5 basis points (bps) for the year ended December 31, 2022 to 32.4 bps for the year ended December 31, 2023.
In addition, as fee rates differ across geographic locations, changes to the mix of AUM between geographies and exchange rates have an impact on operating revenues and net revenue yields.
Investment Management Fees
Investment management fees were $4,106.0 million for year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $4,358.4 million for year ended December 31, 2022 as a result of shifts in the asset mix to lower yield products as compared to the prior year. See discussion above on how AUM changes impact our Investment management fees.

Service and Distribution Fees
For the year ended December 31, 2023, Service and distribution fees were $1,374.6 million as compared to $1,405.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease is primarily driven by lower transfer agency fees of $24.5 million and distribution fees of $17.3 million, partially offset by higher administrative fees of $9.4 million. The decrease is primarily due to lower AUM to which these fees apply.
Performance Fees
For the year ended December 31, 2023, Performance fees were $46.7 million as compared to $68.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. Performance fees in 2023 were primarily generated from institutional and real estate products. Performance fees in 2022 were primarily generated from real estate, institutional, bank loans and private equity products.
Other Revenues
For the year ended December 31, 2023, Other revenues were $189.1 million as compared to $216.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in Other revenues was primarily driven by lower real estate transaction fees of $15.3 million and front end fees of $17.1 million, partially offset by higher other transaction fees of $6.6 million.
Invesco Great Wall
The company’s most significant joint venture is our 49% investment in IGW. Management reflects 100% of IGW's results in its Net revenues and Adjusted operating expenses because it is important to evaluate the contribution that IGW is making to the business. The company’s non-GAAP operating results reflect the economics of these holdings on a basis consistent with the underlying AUM and flows. Adjusted net income is reduced by the amount of earnings attributable to the 51% noncontrolling interests. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional disclosures regarding the use of Net revenues.
Net revenues from IGW were $368.3 million and average AUM was $87.2 billion for the year ended December 31, 2023 (Net revenues were $432.7 million and average AUM was $93.5 billion, for the year ended December 31, 2022). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased Net revenues from IGW by $20.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in revenue was primarily due to lower average AUM, shifts in the asset mix to lower yield products, lower performance fees and implementation of the regulatory mandated fee reductions in China.
Management, performance and other fees earned from CIP
Management believes that the consolidation of investment products may impact a reader's analysis of our underlying results of operations and could result in investor confusion or the production of information about the company by analysts or external credit rating agencies that is not reflective of the underlying results of operations and financial condition of the company. Accordingly, management believes that it is appropriate to adjust operating revenues for the impact of CIP in calculating Net revenues. As Management and Performance fees earned by Invesco from the consolidated products are eliminated upon consolidation of the investment products, management believes that it is appropriate to add these Operating revenues back in the calculation of Net revenues. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional disclosures regarding the use of Net revenues.
Management and Performance fees earned from CIP were $51.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $49.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Operating expenses increased $1,420.0 million in 2023 compared to 2022 and include a $1,248.9 million non-cash impairment of our indefinite-lived intangible assets related to prior acquisitions of management contracts of U.S. retail mutual funds. Excluding the intangible asset impairment, Operating expenses increased $171.1 million.
Third-Party Distribution, Service and Advisory
Third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses include periodic “renewal” commissions which are paid to brokers and independent financial advisors for servicing of their client accounts while they are invested in an Invesco product. Renewal commissions are calculated based upon a percentage of the AUM value and apply to much of the company's non-U.S. retail operations. The revenues from the company’s U.S. retail operations include 12b-1 distribution fees, which are largely passed through to brokers who sell the funds as third-party distribution expenses along with additional marketing support distribution costs. Both the revenues and the costs are dependent on the underlying AUM of the brokers' clients. The upfront distribution commissions are amortized over the redemption period. Also included in Third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses are sub-transfer agency fees that are paid to third parties for processing client common share purchases and redemptions, call center support and client reporting. These costs are reimbursed by the related funds.
Third-party distribution service and advisory expenses were $1,825.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $1,886.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to decreases of $52.5 million in service fees, $36.1 million in renewal commissions, and $10.7 million in transaction fees, partially offset by $40.9 million of higher administrative and other third-party management fees. The decrease is primarily due to a net decrease in pass-through service and distribution fees due to lower average AUM to which these fees apply. See "Schedule of Non-GAAP Information" for additional disclosures.

Employee Compensation
Employee compensation includes salary, cash bonuses and long-term incentive plans designed to attract and retain the highest caliber employees. Employee staff benefit plan costs and payroll taxes are also included in Employee compensation.
Employee compensation was $1,885.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $1,725.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily driven by costs related to executive retirements and organizational changes of $101.6 million which was partially offset by a net decrease in salaries, variable compensation and benefits costs of $16.9 million. In addition, there was a $40.7 million increase in expense related to the mark-to-market on deferred compensation liabilities in the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to a $45.8 million decrease in the year ended December 31, 2022.
Headcount at December 31, 2023 was 8,489 (December 31, 2022; 8,611).
Marketing
Marketing expenses include the cost of direct advertising of our products through trade publications, television and other media, and public relations costs, such as the marketing of the company's products through conferences or other sponsorships, and the cost of marketing-related employee travel.
Marketing expenses were $103.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $114.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by lower advertising spend.
Property, Office and Technology
Property, office and technology expenses include rent and utilities for our various leased facilities, depreciation of company-owned property, minor non-capitalized computer equipment and software purchases and related maintenance payments, and costs related to externally provided operations, technology, middle office and back office management services.
Property, office and technology expenses were $546.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $539.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses include professional services costs, such as information service subscriptions, irrecoverable indirect taxes, non-marketing related employee travel expenditures, consulting fees, audit, tax and legal fees, professional insurance costs and recruitment and training costs.
General and administrative expenses were $450.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $380.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase was due to $70 million of insurance recoveries received during the year ended December 31, 2022 as compared to $20.0 million of insurance recoveries received in the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase also includes consulting and professional fees primarily related to the State Street Alpha platform of $26.4 million.
Transaction, Integration and Restructuring
Transaction, integration and restructuring expenses include costs related to the acquisition and integration of a business and costs incurred by the company to restructure business operations to improve overall efficiency and longer-term profit, including legal, regulatory, advisory, valuation, professional services and consulting fees as well as costs for travel, severance, temporary staff and contract terminations.
Transaction, integration and restructuring charges were $41.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2023 (year ended December 31, 2022: $21.2 million). With the completion of strategic initiatives during the first quarter of 2023, any costs related to on-going projects are classified in the income statement based on the nature of the expense.
Transaction and integration expense (excluding restructuring) was a benefit to expense of $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 (year ended December 31, 2022: $43.6 million benefit). The benefit in 2022 was primarily due to $55.0 million of recoveries related to the previously disclosed OppenheimerFunds acquisition-related matter.

Table of Contents
Restructuring costs were $44.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 (year ended December 31, 2022: $64.8 million). These costs are primarily related to compensation-related restructuring costs in connection with our strategic evaluation during 2023. (see Note 13, "Restructuring," for additional details).
Amortization and impairment of intangible assets
Amortization and impairment of intangible assets was $1,298.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $63.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to a $1,248.9 million non-cash impairment of our indefinite-lived intangible assets related to prior acquisitions of management contracts of U.S. retail mutual funds.
Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Income, Operating Margin and Adjusted Operating Margin
Operating loss was $434.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to operating income of $1,317.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. Operating margin (operating income divided by operating revenues) decreased to (7.6%) for the year ended December 31, 2023 from 21.8% in the year ended December 31, 2022 primarily as a result of the $1,248.9 million intangible asset impairment in 2023.
Adjusted operating income decreased to $1,213.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 from $1,614.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2022. Adjusted operating margin decreased to 28.2% for the year ended December 31, 2023 from 34.8% for the year ended December 31, 2022. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for a reconciliation of Operating revenues to Net revenues, a reconciliation of Operating income to Adjusted operating income and additional important disclosures regarding Net revenues, Adjusted operating income and Adjusted operating margin.
Other Income and Expenses
The main categories of other income and expenses, and the dollar and percentage changes between periods are as follows:

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates decreased to $71.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $106.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by decreases of $33.8 million in our income from our real estate investments and $20.3 million from our joint venture investment in IGW due to lower revenue as discussed above, which were partially offset by an increase of $20.1 million in the earnings from private equity and other investments.
Interest and dividend income
Interest and dividend income was $47.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $24.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher interest income earned from Cash and cash equivalents.
Interest expense
Interest expense was $70.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $85.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 as a result of a decrease in outstanding debt.

Other gains and losses, net
Other gains and losses was a net gain of $98.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to a net loss of $139.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The net gain in 2023 included a $45 million gain on the sale of certain Hong Kong pension sponsorship rights, and $49.6 million on investments and instruments held for our deferred compensation plans.
Other income/(expense) of CIP
Other income/(expense) of CIP includes interest and dividend income, interest expense, and realized and unrealized gains and losses on the underlying investments and debt owned by CIP. For the year ended December 31, 2023, net interest income of CIP was $226.6 million as compared to $151.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase in interest income was primarily a result of newly consolidated investment products in 2023 as well as higher net interest income earned by the CLOs. For the year ended December 31, 2023, other gains and losses of CIP were a net loss of $176.3 million as compared to a net loss of $126.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The net losses in 2023 and 2022 were attributable to market-driven losses on investments held by consolidated funds.
Net impact of CIP and related noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities
The consolidation of investment products did not have an impact on Net income attributable to Invesco for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. The adjustment to net income for the Net income/(loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities represent the CIP profit or loss attributable to third-party investors. The impact of any realized or unrealized gains or losses attributable to the interests of third-parties, which is reflected in Other income/(expense) of CIP, is offset by this adjustment to arrive at Net income attributable to Invesco. Also, the net income or loss of CIP is taxed at the investor level, not at the product level; therefore, a tax provision is not reflected in the net impact of CIP.
Income Tax Expense
The tax provision was a benefit of $(69.7) million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to an expense of $322.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, resulting in effective tax rates of 29.3% and 25.8% for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2022 was favorably impacted by a change in the mix of income across tax jurisdictions which was partially offset by the tax impact of the loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities. For additional income tax information, please refer to Note 15, “Taxation,” in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

Schedule of Non-GAAP Information
We utilize the following non-GAAP performance measures: Net revenue (and by calculation, Net revenue yield on AUM), Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income attributable to Invesco and Adjusted diluted EPS. The company believes the adjusted measures provide valuable insight into the company’s ongoing operational performance and assist in comparisons to its competitors. These measures also assist the company’s management with the establishment of operational budgets and forecasts. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures are Operating revenues (and by calculation, Gross revenue yield on AUM), Operating income, Operating margin, Net income/(loss) attributable to Invesco and Diluted EPS. Each of these measures is discussed more fully below.
The following are reconciliations of Operating revenues, Operating income/(loss) (and by calculation, Operating margin) and Net income/(loss) attributable to Invesco (and by calculation, Diluted EPS) on a U.S. GAAP basis to a non-GAAP basis of Net revenues, Adjusted operating income (and by calculation, Adjusted operating margin) and Adjusted net income attributable to Invesco (and by calculation, adjusted diluted EPS). These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as substitutes for any U.S. GAAP measures and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Additional reconciling items may be added in the future to these non-GAAP measures if deemed appropriate. The tax effects related to the reconciling items have been calculated based on the tax rate attributable to the jurisdiction to which the transaction relates. Notes to the reconciliations follow the tables.

____________
(1) Revenue adjustments: The company calculates Net revenues by reducing Operating revenues to exclude fees that are passed through to external parties who perform functions on behalf of, and distribute, the company’s managed funds. The Net revenue presentation assists in identifying the revenue contribution generated by the company, removing distortions caused by the differing distribution channel fees and allowing for a fair comparison with U.S. peer investment managers and within Invesco’s own investment units. Additionally, management evaluates Net revenue yield on AUM, which is equal to Net revenues divided by Average AUM during the reporting period, as an indicator of the basis point Net revenues we receive for each dollar of AUM we manage.
Investment management fees are adjusted by renewal commissions and certain administrative fees. Service and distributions fees are primarily adjusted by distribution fees passed through to broker dealers for certain share classes and pass through fund-related costs. Other revenues are primarily adjusted by transaction fees passed through to third parties.
(2) Invesco Great Wall: The company reflects 100% of IGW in its Net revenues and Adjusted operating income (and by calculation, Adjusted operating margin). The company’s non-GAAP operating results reflect the economics of these holdings on a basis consistent with the underlying AUM and flows. Adjusted net income is reduced by the amount of earning attributable to the 51% noncontrolling interests.
(3) CIP: See Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, note 19, “Consolidated Investment Products,” for a detailed analysis of the impact to the company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements from the consolidation of CIP. The company believes that the CIP may impact a reader’s analysis of our underlying results of operations and could result in investor confusion or the production of information about the company by analysts or external credit rating agencies that is not reflective of the underlying results of operations and financial condition of the company. Accordingly, the company believes that it is appropriate to adjust Operating revenues and Operating income for the impact of CIP in calculating the respective Net revenues and Adjusted operating income (and by calculation, Adjusted operating margin).
(4) Transaction, integration and restructuring: The company believes it is useful to adjust for the Transaction, integration and restructuring charges in arriving at Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted diluted EPS, as this will aid comparability of our results period to period, and aid comparability with peer companies that may not have similar acquisition and restructuring related charges.
(5) Amortization and impairment of intangible assets: The company removes amortization and non-cash impairment expense related to acquired assets in arriving at Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS, as this will aid comparability of our results period to period, and aid comparability with peer companies that may not have similar acquisition-related charges.
(6) Market movement on deferred compensation plan liabilities: Certain deferred compensation plan awards involve a return to the employee linked to the appreciation (depreciation) of specified investments. The company hedges economically the exposure to market movements for these investments. Since these plans are hedged economically, the company believes it is useful to reflect the offset ultimately achieved from hedging the market exposure in the calculation of Adjusted operating income (and by calculation, Adjusted operating margin) and Adjusted net income (and by calculation, Adjusted diluted EPS) to produce results that will be more comparable period to period.
(7) General and administrative: The adjustments remove insurance recoveries related to fund-related losses incurred in prior periods.
(8) Operating margin is equal to Operating income divided by Operating revenues.
(9) Adjusted operating margin is equal to Adjusted operating income divided by Net revenues.
(10) Tax adjustment for amortization of intangible assets and goodwill: The company reflects the tax benefit realized on the tax amortization of goodwill and intangible assets in Adjusted net income. The company believes it is useful to include this tax benefit in arriving at the Adjusted diluted EPS measure.
(11) The effective tax rate on Adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. for the year ended December 31, 2023 is 20.6% (for year ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, was 26.0% and 23.3%, respectively).
(12) Adjusted diluted EPS is equal to Adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. divided by the weighted average number of common and restricted common shares outstanding.

Investments
Investments are comprised primarily of the equity method investment in IGW, seed capital and co-investments in affiliated funds, and investments related to the company’s deferred compensation plans.
As of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the company had $956.0 million and $909.2 million in seed capital and co-investments, respectively, including direct investments in CIP. Total seed capital and co-investments is presented as a helpful measure for investors and represents our net investment including our net investment in CIP. The following table reconciles the investment balance to the total seed capital and co-investment balance.

Assets held for policyholders and policyholder payables
One of our subsidiaries, Invesco Pensions Limited, is an insurance company that was established to facilitate retirement savings plans in the U.K. The entity held assets that were managed for its clients on its balance sheet with an equal and offsetting liability. The decrease in the balance of these accounts from $668.7 million at December 31, 2022 to $393.9 million at December 31, 2023, resulted from net business outflows of $340.5 million and positive foreign exchange rate movements of $20.5 million, and favorable market movements of $45.2 million. In January 2024, all funds were distributed to customers.
Goodwill and intangible assets, net
Goodwill and intangible assets, net decreased to $14,539.6 million at December 31, 2023 from $15,698.9 million at December 31, 2022. The decrease was due to amortization expense of $49.9 million and a $1,248.9 million non-cash impairment of our indefinite-lived intangible assets related to prior acquisitions of management contracts of U.S. retail mutual funds, partially offset by foreign exchange impacts of $139.5 million. See "Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” for additional information.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our capital structure, together with available cash balances, cash flows generated from operations, existing capacity under our credit agreement and further capital market activities, if necessary, should provide us with sufficient resources to meet present and future cash needs, including operating expenses, debt and other obligations as they come due and anticipated future capital requirements.

Table of Contents
In the ordinary course of business, Invesco enters into contracts or purchase obligations with third parties whereby the third parties provide services to or on behalf of Invesco. Purchase obligations represent fixed-price contracts, which are either non-cancelable or cancellable with a penalty. As of December 31, 2023, the company's purchase obligations totaled $663.5 million (December 31, 2022: $770.7 million) and primarily reflect standard service contracts for portfolio, market data, office-related services and third-party marketing and promotional services. Purchase obligations are recorded as liabilities in the company's Consolidated Financial Statements when services are provided.
Capital Management
Our capital management priorities have evolved with the growth and success of our business and include, in no particular order of priority: reinvestment in the business, maintaining a strong balance sheet and returning capital to shareholders longer term through a combination of modestly increasing dividends and share repurchases.
During the year ended December 31, 2023, the company repurchased 9.6 million common shares for $150.0 million in the open market. As of December 31, 2023, approximately $382.2 million remained authorized under the company’s common share repurchase authorization approved by the Board on July 22, 2016.
Our capital process is executed in a manner consistent with our desire to maintain strong, investment grade credit ratings. As of the date of our filing, Invesco held credit ratings of A3/Stable, BBB+/Stable and A/Stable from Moody's, S&P, and Fitch, respectively.
Other Items
Certain of our subsidiaries are required to maintain minimum levels of regulatory capital, liquidity, and working capital. Such requirements may change from time-to-time as additional guidance is released based on a variety of factors, including balance sheet composition, assessment of risk exposures and governance, and review from regulators. These and other similar provisions of applicable laws and regulations may have the effect of limiting withdrawals of capital, repayment of intercompany loans and payment of dividends by such entities. Our financial condition or liquidity could be adversely affected if certain of our subsidiaries are unable to distribute funds to us.
We are in compliance with all regulatory minimum net capital requirements. As of December 31, 2023, the company's minimum regulatory capital requirement was $395.8 million (December 31, 2022: $639.8 million). The decrease was driven by a reduction in regulatory capital requirements as part of a transition into a new regulatory regime in the UK (Investment Firm Prudential Regime). However, there has been no change to the related regulatory liquidity and working capital requirements, and as such, there has not been a material reduction in the level of Cash and cash equivalents required outside of the US.
We meet the regulatory liquidity and working capital requirements by holding cash and cash equivalents in the European sub-group. This retained cash can be used for general business purposes in the European sub-group in the countries where it is located. Due to the liquidity and working capital requirements, the ability to transfer cash between certain jurisdictions may be limited. In addition, transfers of cash between international jurisdictions may have adverse tax consequences.
The consolidation of $9,478.4 million and $7,121.8 million of total assets and debt of CIP as of December 31, 2023, respectively, did not impact the company’s liquidity and capital resources. See Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 19, “Consolidated Investment Products,” for additional details.

Cash Flows Discussion
The ability to consistently generate cash flow from operations in excess of dividend payments, common share repurchases, capital expenditures and ongoing Operating expenses is one of our company's fundamental financial strengths. Operations continue to be financed from current earnings and borrowings.
The following table represents a reconciliation of the cash flow information presented on a U.S. GAAP basis to the cash flow information, excluding the impact of the cash flows of CIP for the reasons outlined in footnote 1 to the table:

____________
(1) These tables include non-GAAP presentations. Cash held by CIP is not available for use by Invesco. Additionally, there is no recourse to Invesco for CIP debt. The cash flows of CIP do not form part of the company’s cash flow management processes, nor do they form part of the company’s significant liquidity evaluations and decisions.
Operating Activities
Operating cash flows include the receipt of Investment management and Other fees generated from AUM, offset by Operating expenses and changes in operating assets and liabilities. After allowing for the change in cash held by CIP, investment activities, non-cash activity, including the $1,248.9 million intangible asset impairment in 2023, and seasonal payments, such as bonus payments in the first quarter, our operating cash flows generally move in the same direction as our Operating income/(loss).
Cash inflows for the year ended December 31, 2023, excluding the impact of CIP, were primarily driven by operating income and changes in payables and receivables due to the timing of payments and receipts.
Investing Activities
Cash outflows for the year ended December 31, 2023, excluding the impact of CIP, includes purchases of investments of $108.2 million (year ended December 31, 2022: $274.3 million) and property, equipment and software of $164.3 million (year ended December 31, 2022: $192.9 million), partially offset by collected proceeds from sales and returns of capital of investments of $54.8 million (year ended December 31, 2022: $173.1 million) and the sale of certain Hong Kong pension sponsorship rights of $46.2 million.

Financing Activities
Financing cash outflows during the year ended December 31, 2023 included $357.9 million of common dividend payments for dividends declared in January, April, July and October 2023 (year ended December 31, 2022: dividends paid of $334.8 million), $236.8 million of preferred dividend payments for dividends declared in January, April, July and October 2023 (year ended December 31, 2022: $236.8 million), $150.0 million for the repurchase of common shares through the open market (year ended December 31, 2022: $200.0 million), and the payment of $37.5 million to meet employees' withholding tax obligations on common share vestings (2022: $44.7 million). Financing cash outflows during the year ended December 31, 2022 also included a $600.0 million redemption of senior notes. Net borrowings under the floating rate credit agreement were zero during the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Dividends
When declared, Invesco pays dividends on a quarterly basis in arrears. Holders of our preferred shares are eligible to receive dividends at an annual rate of 5.9% of the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, or $59 per share per annum. The preferred dividend is payable quarterly on a non-cumulative basis when, if and as declared by our board of directors. However, if we have not declared and paid or set aside for payment full quarterly dividends on the preferred stock for a particular dividend period, we may not declare or pay dividends on, redeem, purchase or acquire our common stock or other junior securities in the next succeeding dividend period. In addition, if we have not declared and paid or set aside for payment quarterly dividends on the preferred stock for six quarterly periods, whether or not consecutive, the number of directors of the company will be increased by two and the holders of the preferred shares shall have the right to elect such two additional members of the Board of Directors.
On January 23, 2024, the company declared a fourth quarter 2023 cash dividend of $0.20 per common share to the holders of common shares. The dividend is payable on March 4, 2024, to common shareholders of record at the close of business on February 16, 2024, with an ex-dividend date of February 15, 2024.
On January 23, 2024, the company announced a preferred dividend of $14.75 per preferred share representing the period from December 1, 2023 through February 28, 2024. The preferred dividend is payable on March 1, 2024.
The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will depend upon, among other factors, our earnings, financial condition and capital requirements at the time such declaration and payment are considered. The company has a policy of managing dividends in a prudent fashion, with due consideration given to profit levels, overall debt levels and historical dividend payouts.
Common Share Repurchase Plan
During 2023, the company repurchased 9.6 million shares for $150 million in the open market as compared to 8.9 million shares for $200 million during 2022. At December 31, 2023, approximately $382.2 million remained authorized under the company's common share repurchase authorization approved by the Board on July 22, 2016 (December 31, 2022: $532.2 million).
Debt
The carrying value of our debt at December 31, 2023 was $1,489.5 million (December 31, 2022: $1,487.6 million), See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 8, “Debt,” for additional disclosures.
For the year ended December 31, 2023, the company's weighted average cost of debt was 4.28% (year ended December 31, 2022: 4.15%).
Financial covenants under the credit agreement include: (i) the quarterly maintenance of an Adjusted debt/Earnings before income tax, depreciation, amortization, interest expense, common share-based compensation expense, unrealized (gains)/losses from investments, net, and unusual or otherwise non-recurring gains and losses (Covenant Adjusted EBITDA) leverage ratio, as defined in the credit agreement, of not greater than 3.25:1.00, (ii) an interest coverage ratio (Covenant Adjusted EBITDA/interest expense for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ended before the date of determination) of not less than 4.00:1.00. As of December 31, 2023, we were in compliance with our financial covenants. At December 31, 2023, our leverage ratio was 0.69:1.00 (December 31, 2022: 0.78:1.00), and our interest coverage ratio was 20.40:1.00 (December 31, 2022: 19.51:1.00).

(1) Adjustments for unrealized gains and losses from investments, as defined in our credit agreement, may also include non-cash gains and losses on investments to the extent that they do not represent anticipated future cash receipts or expenditures.
(2) Unusual or otherwise non-recurring gains and losses, as defined in our credit agreement, are adjusted for in the determination of Covenant Adjusted EBITDA. The insurance recoveries related to the OppenheimerFunds acquisition-related matter are considered unusual and have been removed from the determination of Covenant Adjusted EBITDA.
(3) Covenant Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted debt are non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management in connection with certain debt covenant calculations under our credit agreement. The calculation of Covenant Adjusted EBITDA above (a reconciliation from net income attributable to Invesco Ltd.) is defined by our credit agreement, and therefore Net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. is the most appropriate GAAP measure from which to reconcile to Covenant Adjusted EBITDA. The calculation of 2023 Adjusted debt is defined in our amended credit agreement and equals debt of $1,489.5 million plus $2.8 million in letters of credit less $500.0 million of excess unrestricted cash (cash and cash equivalents less the minimum regulatory capital requirement, not to exceed $500 million (2022: $200.0 million).
On January 30, 2024, Invesco Finance PLC, a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Parent, paid in full the outstanding balance of the $600.0 million senior notes which were due on January 30, 2024. Further, $128.5 million was drawn on the floating rate facility on January 31, 2024.
The discussion that follows identifies risks associated with the company's liquidity and capital resources. The Item 1. Business -- Risk Management section contains a broader discussion of the company's overall approach to risk management.
Credit and Liquidity Risk
The company manages its capital by reviewing annual and projected cash flow forecasts and by monitoring credit, liquidity and market risks, such as interest rate and foreign currency risks (as discussed in Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk”), through measurement and analysis. The company is primarily exposed to credit risk through its cash and cash equivalent deposits, which are held by external firms. The company invests its cash balances in its own institutional money market products, as well as with external high credit-quality financial institutions. These arrangements create exposure to concentrations of credit risk.
54
Table of Contents
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to meet an obligation. All Cash and cash equivalent balances are subject to credit risk, as they represent deposits made by the company with external banks and other institutions. As of December 31, 2023, our maximum exposure to credit risk related to our Cash and cash equivalent balances is $1,469.2 million, of which $927.8 million is invested in affiliated money market funds. No more than 10% of our Cash and cash equivalent balances is held with any one third-party financial institution. See Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 2, "Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities" for information regarding Cash and cash equivalents invested in affiliated money market funds.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities as the same become due. The company is exposed to liquidity risk through its $1,489.5 million in total debt. The company actively manages liquidity risk by preparing cash flow forecasts for future periods, reviewing them regularly with senior management, maintaining a committed credit agreement, scheduling significant gaps between major debt maturities and engaging external financing sources in regular dialogue.
Effects of Inflation
Inflation can impact our organization primarily in two ways. First, inflationary pressures can result in increases in our cost structure, especially to the extent that large expense components such as compensation are impacted. To the degree that these expense increases are not recoverable or cannot be counterbalanced through pricing increases due to the competitive environment, our net income could be negatively impacted. Secondly, the value of the assets that we manage may be negatively impacted when inflationary expectations result in a rising interest rate environment. A decline in the value of AUM could lead to reduced revenues as management fees are generally calculated based upon the size of AUM.
Off Balance Sheet Commitments
See Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 18, “Commitments and Contingencies,” for more information regarding undrawn capital commitments.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 1, “Accounting Policies." Critical accounting policies and estimates are those that require complex management judgment regarding matters that are highly uncertain at the time policies were applied and estimates were made. Different estimates reasonably could have been used in the current period that would have had a material effect on these Consolidated Financial Statements, and changes in these estimates are likely to occur from period-to-period in the future. The discussion below provides information on the significant judgments and assumptions applied in each area and should be read in conjunction with the significant accounting policies footnote previously referenced.
Intangible Assets
Management has the option to first assess indefinite-lived intangible assets for qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test. Definite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable (i.e., the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the intangible asset). In addition, management's judgment is required to estimate the period over which definite-lived intangible assets will contribute to the company's cash flows and the pattern in which these assets will be consumed. A change in the remaining useful life of any of these assets, or the reclassification of an indefinite-lived intangible asset to a definite-lived intangible asset, could have a significant impact on the company's amortization expense.
Intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment annually as of October 1 or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. If a quantitative assessment is required, the impairment test consists of a comparison of the fair value of an intangible asset to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. Management used an income approach to value indefinite-lived intangible assets related to acquired management contracts of U.S. retail mutual funds. An income approach includes assumptions for current market conditions, including the asset’s updated forecasts of AUM to take into consideration market gains or losses, net long-term flows and the corresponding changes in revenue and expenses.
55
Table of Contents
The most sensitive assumptions used in the income approach are the revenue forecast, the long-term growth rate and the discount rate applied to the cash flow forecast to determine present value. The revenue projections used are within a range of (5)% to 1% over the forecast period. Taking into consideration the AUM mix of the U.S. retail mutual funds, the long-term growth rate was determined using the historical returns of the S&P 500 index, treasury bonds and treasury bills. The long-term growth rate used by management in the annual impairment test was 2.5% which decreased from the long-term growth rate used in prior periods of 4.5% due to sustained outflows of AUM related to U.S. retail mutual funds. The discount rate is an estimate of the weighted average cost of capital for the investment management sector reflecting the overall industry risks associated with future cash flows and considers an applicable size premium for the intangible asset. The discount rate used by management was 13.05% which increased 365 bps from the prior year due to increases in the risk-free discount rate and systematic risk inputs as well as the use of an asset-specific risk premium. We assessed the reasonableness of the estimated fair value of the intangible asset by considering applicable market data.
Based on our annual impairment analysis as of October 1, 2023, we determined that the carrying value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets related to acquired management contracts of U.S. retail mutual funds of $5,818.6 million exceeded the estimated fair value. As such, a $1,248.9 million impairment was recorded in Amortization and impairment of intangibles expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income which reduced the carrying value to $4,569.7 million. The impairment was driven by a decrease in the long-term growth rate, an increase in the discount rate and lower projected earnings as a result of lower AUM for these management contracts. While the company believes all assumptions utilized in our assessment are reasonable and appropriate, changes in these estimates could produce different fair value amounts which could drive impairment in future periods. For example, assuming all other assumptions remain static, a decrease to the revenue forecast of 2% would result in an incremental impairment of $79 million. A decrease to the long-term growth rate of 25 bps would result in an incremental impairment of $75 million. Also, an increase to the discount rate of 15 bps would result in an incremental impairment of $58 million. The impairment does not impact the company’s liquidity or capital resources.
Our annual impairment reviews of our other indefinite-lived intangible assets determined that there was not an impairment of these intangibles. The classifications of indefinite-lived and definite-lived intangible assets remain appropriate, and no changes to the expected lives of definite-lived intangible assets were required.
Goodwill
Management has the option to first assess goodwill for qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test. Due to the sustained decline in our stock price into the fourth quarter, management opted to perform a quantitative annual impairment test as of October 1, 2023. Management used an income approach to value the reporting unit. An income approach includes assumptions for current market conditions, including the company's updated forecasts for changes in AUM due to market gains or losses, net long-term flows and the corresponding changes in revenue and expenses. The most sensitive assumptions used in the income approach are the long-term growth rate and the discount rate applied to the cash flow forecast to determine present value. Taking into consideration the company’s AUM mix, the long-term growth rate was determined using the historical returns of the S&P 500 index, treasury bonds and treasury bills. The long-term growth rate used by management in the annual impairment test was 4.5% which is consistent with prior periods. The discount rate used is an estimate of the weighted average cost of capital for the investment management sector reflecting the overall industry risks associated with future cash flows. The discount rate used by management was 11.2% which increased 180 bps from the prior year due to increases in the risk-free rate and systematic risk inputs as well as the use of a company-specific risk premium. We assessed the reasonableness of the estimated fair value of the reporting unit by giving consideration to our market capitalization and implied control premium over a reasonable period of time and to applicable market data.
Based on our annual impairment analysis of goodwill as of October 1, 2023, we determined that the estimated fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by 5% due to lower profitability in 2023 and an increase in the discount rate from the prior year. While the company believes all assumptions utilized in our assessment are reasonable and appropriate, changes in these estimates could produce different fair value amounts which could drive impairment in future periods. For example, assuming all other assumptions remain static, a decrease to the long-term growth rate of 20 bps or an increase to the discount rate of 15 bps would cause the carrying value of the reporting unit to approximate its fair value. In addition, if in future periods, the price of our stock declines significantly for an extended period of time, there could be an impairment of goodwill.
The company cannot predict the occurrence of future events that might adversely affect the reported value of goodwill of $8,691.5 million at December 31, 2023. Such events include, but are not limited to, strategic decisions made in response to economic and competitive conditions, the impact of the economic environment on the company's AUM or any other material negative change in AUM and related fee rates, or a significant and sustained decline in the company's stock price. An impairment in the future would not impact the company’s liquidity or capital resources.

Income Taxes
The company files U.S. federal, state and numerous foreign income tax returns. The income tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations by the taxpayer and the relevant taxing authorities. Significant judgment is required in the determination of our annual income tax provision, which includes the assessment of deferred tax assets and uncertain tax positions, as well as the interpretation and application of existing and newly enacted tax laws, regulation changes and new judicial rulings. Therefore, it is possible that actual results will vary from those recognized in our Consolidated Financial Statements due to changes in the interpretation of applicable guidance or as a result of examinations by taxing authorities.
Deferred tax assets, net of any associated valuation allowance, have been recognized based on management's belief that taxable income of the appropriate character, more likely than not, will be sufficient to realize the benefits of these assets over time. In the event that actual results differ from our expectations, or if our historical trends of positive operating income changes, we may be required to record a valuation allowance on some or all of these deferred tax assets, which may have a significant effect on our financial condition and results of operations. In assessing whether a valuation allowance should be established against a deferred income tax asset, the company considers all available evidence, which includes the nature, frequency and severity of recent losses, forecasts of future profitability and the duration of statutory carry back and carry forward periods, among other factors.
In the assessment of uncertain tax positions, significant judgment is required to estimate the range of possible outcomes and determine the probability, on a more likely than not basis, of favorable or unfavorable outcomes upon ultimate settlement of an issue. Changes in the estimate of uncertain tax positions occur periodically due to changes in interpretations of tax laws, the status of examinations by tax authorities and new regulatory or judicial guidance that could impact the relative merits and risk of tax positions. These changes, when they occur, impact tax expense and can materially impact results of operations. The company recognizes any interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits (UTBs) on the Consolidated Statements of Income as components of income tax expense.
CIP
Assessing if an entity is a variable interest entity (VIE) or voting interest entity (VOE) involves judgment and analysis on a structure-by-structure basis. Factors assessed as part of the analysis include the legal organization of the entity, the company's contractual involvement with the entity and any related party or de facto agent implications of the company's involvement with the entity. If the company is deemed to have the power to direct the activities of the fund that most significantly impact the fund's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses/right to receive benefits from the fund that could potentially be significant to the fund, then the company is deemed to be the fund's primary beneficiary and is required to consolidate the fund. Assessing if the company has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the fund’s economic results may involve significant judgment.

The discussion and analysis disclosed herein apply to material changes in the Consolidated Financial Statements for 2022 and 2021. For the comparison of 2021 and 2020, see the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part II, Item 7 of the company’s 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 18, 2022. The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of Invesco should be read in conjunction with the “Forward-looking Statements” disclosure set forth in Part I and the “Risk Factors” set forth in Item 1A of Part I of this Annual Report on Form 10‑K, each of which describe our risks, uncertainties and other important factors in more detail.
Executive Overview
The following executive overview summarizes the significant trends affecting our results of operations and financial condition for the periods presented. This overview and the remainder of this management's discussion and analysis supplements and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Invesco and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Global capital markets in 2022 were challenging for the asset management industry and for Invesco, as investors reacted to uncertainty associated with rising interest rates and high inflation in most major economies as well as geopolitical tensions. The table below summarizes the year ended December 31 returns based on price appreciation/(depreciation) of several major market indices for 2022 and 2021:

The company’s financial results are impacted by the fluctuations in exchange rates against the U.S. Dollar, as discussed in the “Results of Operations” section below.
Invesco benefits from our long-term efforts to ensure a diversified base of AUM. One of Invesco's core strengths, and a key differentiator for the company within the industry, is our broad diversification across client domiciles, asset classes and distribution channels. Our geographic diversification recognizes growth opportunities in different parts of the world. This broad diversification mitigates the impact on Invesco of different market cycles and enables the company to take advantage of growth opportunities in various markets and channels.
Despite the volatile markets, our diversified product lineup maintained net long-term inflows in certain key capabilities, notably ETFs, Fixed Income, Greater China, and the Institutional Channel.
We remain highly focused on our capital priorities, investing in our key capabilities, and efficiently allocating our resources. Consistent with our commitment to improve our leverage profile, we continue to manage our debt to lower levels. We redeemed $600 million of senior notes in May 2022, ended the year with no balance on our credit facility and our cash and cash equivalents balance increased to over $1.2 billion. Our debt of $1.5 billion is the lowest level in ten years. The progress we have made in our efforts to build financial flexibility has Invesco well-positioned to navigate volatile market conditions and deliver long-term growth. We remain committed to returning capital to shareholders longer term through a combination of modestly increasing dividends and share repurchases.
We are nearing completion of our strategic evaluation of the business that we began in 2020 and expect to be complete by the end of first quarter of 2023. Our strategic evaluation was primarily focusing on four key areas of our expense base: our organizational model, our real estate footprint, management of third-party spend and technology and operations efficiency.
27
Table of Contents
Through this evaluation, we invested and will continue to invest in key areas of growth aligned with our strategic plan, including ETFs, Fixed Income, China, Solutions, Alternatives and Global Equities, which has had a positive impact on the company’s results. We achieved $213 million in annualized savings in 2022, surpassing our original goal of $200 million of savings. We remain focused on identifying areas of expense improvement that will deliver positive operating leverage when markets recover and organic growth resumes.
On February 8, 2023 we announced that Martin L. Flanagan will retire as President and CEO of the company and as a member of the Board of Directors effective June 30, 2023. Andrew R. Schlossberg will succeed Mr. Flanagan as President and CEO and as a member of the Board of Directors effective June 30, 2023. Mr. Schlossberg is currently Senior Managing Director and Head of Americas and has served in multiple leadership roles across the company’s businesses and locations since joining the company in 2001.

The company provides investment management services to, and has transactions with, various retail mutual funds and similar entities, private equity, real estate, fund-of-funds, CLOs and other investment entities sponsored by the company for the investment of client assets in the normal course of business. The company serves as the investment manager, making day-to-day investment decisions concerning the assets of the products. The company is required to consolidate certain of these managed funds from time-to-time, as discussed more fully in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 1, "Accounting Policies -- Basis of Accounting and Consolidation." Investment products that are consolidated are referred to in this Report as CIP. The company's economic risk with respect to each investment in CIP is limited to its equity ownership and any uncollected management and performance fees.
The majority of the company's CIP balances are CLO-related. The collateral assets of the CLOs are held solely to satisfy the obligations of the CLOs. The company has no right to the benefits from, nor does it bear the risks associated with, the collateral assets held by the CLOs, beyond the company's direct investments in, and management and performance fees generated from, the CLOs. If the company were to liquidate, the collateral assets would not be available to the general creditors of the company, and as a result, the company does not consider them to be company assets. Likewise, the investors in the CLOs have no recourse to the general credit of the company for the notes issued by the CLOs. The company therefore does not consider this debt to be a company liability.
Due to the significant impact that CIP has on the presentation of the company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, the company has elected to deconsolidate these products in its non-GAAP disclosures (among other adjustments). See "Schedule of Non-GAAP Information" for additional information regarding these adjustments. The following discussion therefore combines the results presented under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (U.S. GAAP) with the company’s non-GAAP presentation.
To assess the impact of CIP on the company's Results of Operations and Balance Sheet Discussion, refer to Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements, Note 19, "Consolidated Investment Products."

(1) Excludes passive products, closed-end funds, private equity limited partnerships, non-discretionary funds, UITs, fund of funds with component funds managed by Invesco, stable value building block funds and CDOs. Certain funds and products were excluded from the analysis because of limited benchmark or peer group data. Had these been available, results may have been different. These results are preliminary and subject to revision.
AUM measured in the one, three, five and ten year quartile rankings represents 47%, 47%, 46% and 42% of total Invesco AUM, respectively, and AUM measured versus benchmark on a one, three, five and ten year basis represents 61%, 58%, 57% and 51% of total Invesco AUM as of December 31, 2022. Peer group rankings are sourced from a widely-used third-party ranking agency in each fund’s market (e.g., Morningstar, IA, Lipper, eVestment, Mercer, Galaxy, SITCA, Value Research) and asset-weighted in USD. Rankings are as of prior quarter-end for most institutional products and prior month-end for Australian retail funds due to their late release by third parties. Rankings are calculated against all funds in each peer group. Rankings for the primary share class of the most representative fund in each composite are applied to all products within each composite. Performance assumes the reinvestment of dividends. Past performance is not indicative of future results and may not reflect an investor’s experience.
(2) Numbers in parenthesis reflect AUM for each investment product (see Note 1 above for exclusions) as a percentage of the total AUM for the 5 year peer group ($651.3 billion).
Assets Under Management
The following presentation and discussion of AUM includes Passive and Active AUM. Passive AUM include index-based ETFs, UITs, non-management fee earning AUM and other passive mandates. Active AUM are Total AUM less Passive AUM.
Non-management fee earning AUM includes non-management fee earning ETFs, UITs and product leverage. The net flows in non-management fee earning AUM can be relatively short-term in nature and, due to the relatively low revenue yield, these can have a significant impact on overall net revenue yield.

Table of Contents
The AUM tables and the discussion below refer to certain AUM as long-term. Long-term inflows and the underlying reasons for the movements in this line item include investments from new clients, existing clients adding new accounts/funds or contributions/subscriptions into existing accounts/funds. Long-term outflows reflect client redemptions from accounts/funds and include the return of invested capital on the maturity. We present net flows into money market funds separately because shareholders of those funds typically use them as short-term funding vehicles and because their flows are particularly sensitive to short-term interest rate movements.

____________
(1) U.S. GAAP gross revenue yield is not considered a meaningful effective fee rate measure. Gross revenue yield on AUM is equal to U.S. GAAP annualized total operating revenues divided by average AUM, excluding IGW AUM. It is appropriate to exclude the average AUM of IGW as the revenues resulting from these AUM are not presented in U.S. GAAP operating revenues. The average AUM for Invesco Great Wall was $93.5 billion in 2022 (2021: $84.0 billion, 2020: $50.0 billion). Additionally, the U.S. GAAP gross revenue yield is not a good measure because the numerator of the U.S. GAAP gross revenue yield excludes the management fees earned from CIP; however, the denominator of the measure includes the AUM of these investment products. Net revenue yield metrics include the net revenues and average AUM of IGW and CIP. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for a reconciliation of operating revenues to net revenues.
(2) Performance fees are earned when certain performance metrics are achieved and QQQ ETFs do not earn net revenues. Therefore, net revenue yield is calculated excluding performance fees and QQQ AUM. Passive net revenue yield is calculated excluding QQQ AUM.
Flows
There are numerous drivers of AUM inflows and outflows, including individual investor decisions to change investment preferences, fiduciaries and other gatekeepers making broad asset allocation decisions on behalf of their clients and reallocation of investments within portfolios. We are not a party to these asset allocation decisions, as the company does not generally have access to the underlying investor's decision-making process, including their risk appetite or liquidity needs.

Table of Contents
Average AUM during the year ended December 31, 2022 were $1,452.5 billion, as compared to $1,499.9 billion for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Market Returns
Market gains and losses include the net change in AUM resulting from changes in market values of the underlying securities from period to period. The table in the “Executive Overview” section of this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations summarizes returns based on price appreciation/(depreciation) of several major market indices for the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Foreign Exchange Rates
During the year ended December 31, 2022, we experienced a decrease in AUM of $26.1 billion due to changes in foreign exchange rates (December 31, 2021: AUM decreased by $6.3 billion).

_________
(1) Total revenue adjustments include pass through investment management, service and distribution, and other revenues and equal the same amount as the third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses.
(2) See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional important disclosures regarding the use of net revenues.
The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased operating revenues by $153.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021 ($87.6 million increase in 2021).
Our revenues are directly influenced by the level and composition of our AUM. Therefore, movements in global capital market levels, net business inflows (or outflows), changes in the mix of investment products between asset classes and geographies may materially affect our revenues from period to period. See the company’s disclosures regarding the changes in AUM during the year ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 in the “Assets Under Management” section above for additional information.
Passive AUM generally earn a lower effective fee rate than active asset classes, and therefore, changes in the mix of AUM have an impact on revenues and net revenue yield. In addition, as a significant proportion of our AUM are based outside of the U.S., changes in foreign exchange rates can result in a change to the mix of U.S. Dollar denominated AUM for AUM denominated in other currencies. As fee rates differ across geographic locations, changes to exchange rates have an impact on revenues and net revenue yields.
Average AUM were $1,452.5 billion in the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $1,499.9 billion in the year ended December 31, 2021. In addition to the impact of lower AUM, investors continued to shift AUM toward lower yield passive products, such as ETFs, during 2022. As a result, net revenue yield ex performance fees ex QQQ declined from 39.1 basis points (bps) for the year ended December 31, 2021 to 35.5 bps for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Investment Management Fees
Investment management fees were $4,358.4 million for year ended December 31, 2022 as compared to $4,995.9 million for year ended December 31, 2021. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased investment management fees by $127.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. After allowing for foreign exchange movements, investment management fees decreased by $510.0 million as a result of decline in average AUM and lower revenue yields when compared to the 2021 period.

Service and Distribution Fees
For the year ended December 31, 2022, service and distribution fees were $1,405.5 million, as compared to $1,596.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased service and distribution fees by $20.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. After allowing for foreign exchange movements, service and distribution fees decreased by $170.0 million. The total decrease is driven primarily by lower distribution fees of $92.2 million, transfer agency fees of $41.3 million and administrative fees of $37.1 million. The decrease is primarily driven by lower AUM to which these fees apply.
Performance Fees
For the year ended December 31, 2022, performance fees were $68.2 million, as compared to $56.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Performance fees in 2022 were primarily generated from real estate, institutional, bank loans and private equity products. Performance fees in 2021 were primarily generated from real estate, institutional products and various institutional mandates in Japan.
Other Revenues
In the year ended December 31, 2022, other revenues were $216.8 million, as compared to $246.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased other revenues by $2.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. The decrease in other revenues was primarily driven by lower front end fees of $53.7 million which were partially offset by higher real estate transaction fees and other revenues of $13.1 million and $13.3 million, respectively.
Invesco Great Wall
The company’s most significant joint venture is our 49% investment in IGW. Management reflects 100% of IGW's results in its net revenues and adjusted operating expenses because it is important to evaluate the contribution that IGW is making to the business. The company’s non-GAAP operating results reflect the economics of these holdings on a basis consistent with the underlying AUM and flows. Adjusted net income is reduced by the amount of earnings attributable to the 51% noncontrolling interests. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional disclosures regarding the use of net revenues.
Net revenues from IGW were $432.7 million and average AUM was $93.5 billion for the year ended December 31, 2022 (net revenues were $473.5 million and average AUM was $84.0 billion, for the year ended December 31, 2021). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased net revenues from IGW by $16.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. After allowing for foreign exchange movements, net revenues from IGW were $449.4 million. The decrease in revenue was primarily due to a change in the mix of AUM and lower performance fees.
Management, performance and other fees earned from CIP
Management believes that the consolidation of investment products may impact a reader's analysis of our underlying results of operations and could result in investor confusion or the production of information about the company by analysts or external credit rating agencies that is not reflective of the underlying results of operations and financial condition of the company. Accordingly, management believes that it is appropriate to adjust operating revenues for the impact of CIP in calculating net revenues. As management and performance fees earned by Invesco from the consolidated products are eliminated upon consolidation of the investment products, management believes that it is appropriate to add these operating revenues back in the calculation of net revenues. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional disclosures regarding the use of net revenues.
Management and performance fees earned from CIP were $49.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $42.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase is due to higher management fees earned from newly launched retail funds.

(1) In prior periods, amortization of intangible assets was included in the transaction, integration and restructuring line item. From the beginning of 2021, amortization of intangible assets was presented on a separate line item. There was no impact on operating expenses, operating income or net income.
Operating expenses decreased $375.1 million in 2022 compared to 2021. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased operating expenses by $146.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021.

Third-Party Distribution, Service and Advisory
Third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses include periodic “renewal” commissions paid to brokers and independent financial advisors for the continuing oversight of their clients' assets over the time they are invested and are payments for the servicing of client accounts. Renewal commissions are calculated based upon a percentage of the AUM value and apply to much of the company's non-U.S. retail operations. The revenues from the company’s U.S. retail operations include 12b-1 distribution fees, which are largely passed through to brokers who sell the funds as third-party distribution expenses along with additional marketing support distribution costs. Both the revenues and the costs are dependent on the underlying AUM of the brokers' clients. Third-party distribution expenses also include the amortization of upfront commissions paid to broker-dealers for sales of fund shares with a contingent deferred sales charge (a charge levied to the investor for client redemption of AUM within a certain contracted period of time). The upfront distribution commissions are amortized over the redemption period. Also included in third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses are sub-transfer agency fees that are paid to third parties for processing client common share purchases and redemptions, call center support and client reporting. These costs are reimbursed by the related funds.
Third-party distribution service and advisory expenses were $1,886.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $2,149.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased third-party costs by $44.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. After allowing for foreign exchange rate changes, the decrease in costs was $218.4 million. The decrease was primarily due to decreases of $113.6 million in service fees, $59.5 million in renewal commissions, $40.8 million in transaction fees, and $16.1 million in front end commissions, partially offset by $11.6 million of higher administrative and other third-party management fees. The decrease is primarily driven by lower average AUM, partially offset by changes in AUM mix as discussed above. See "Schedule of Non-GAAP Information" for additional disclosures.
Employee Compensation
Employee compensation includes salary, cash bonuses and long-term incentive plans designed to attract and retain the highest caliber employees. Employee staff benefit plan costs and payroll taxes are also included in employee compensation.
Employee compensation was $1,725.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $1,911.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased employee compensation by $58.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. After allowing for foreign exchange rate changes, the decrease in employee compensation was $127.6 million. This decrease was due to decreases of $79.9 million in variable compensation as a result of lower revenues in 2022 compared to 2021 and $95.7 million related to mark-to-market losses on deferred compensation liabilities. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of $41.9 million in salaries, staff costs and benefits as well as a $5.6 million increase in deferred compensation expenses.
Headcount at December 31, 2022 was 8,611 (December 31, 2021; 8,513).
Marketing
Marketing expenses include the cost of direct advertising of our products through trade publications, television and other media, and public relations costs, such as the marketing of the company's products through conferences or other sponsorships, and the cost of marketing-related employee travel.
Marketing expenses were $114.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $98.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased marketing expenses by $5.0 million. After allowing for foreign exchange rate movements, marketing expenses increased $21.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase was related to increased client events and marketing travel and entertainment costs as travel activity returned to more normalized levels with the easing of COVID-19 related travel restrictions.
Property, Office and Technology
Property, office and technology expenses include rent and utilities for our various leased facilities, depreciation of company-owned property, capitalized software and computer equipment costs, minor non-capitalized computer equipment and software purchases and related maintenance payments, and costs related to externally provided operations, technology, middle office and back office management services.

Table of Contents
Property, office and technology expenses were $539.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $526.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased property, office and technology expenses by $16.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. After allowing for foreign exchange rate movements, property, office and technology expenses increased $30.4 million. The increase was primarily driven by increased technology costs including software maintenance costs of $24.7 million related to investments in foundational technology projects that will enable future scale in our operating platform. Property expense also increased by $4.2 million due to higher property and office costs as a result of overlapping rent associated with the move of our new Atlanta headquarters which we expect to complete in mid-2023 and higher outsourced administration costs of $6.6 million, which were partially offset by lower depreciation and other expense of $5.2 million.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses include professional services costs, such as information service subscriptions, irrecoverable indirect taxes, non-marketing related employee travel expenditures, consulting fees, audit, tax and legal fees, professional insurance costs and recruitment and training costs.
General and administrative expenses were $380.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $424.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased general and administrative expenses by $21.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. After allowing for foreign exchange rate movements, the decrease was $22.6 million. The decrease is due to $70 million of recoveries received during the year relating to losses incurred in prior periods, a $16.6 million decrease in the impact of CIP on general and administrative expenses, and $11.5 million in charitable contributions to the Invesco foundation and other charitable causes in the prior year. The decrease was partially offset by increases of $24.0 million in professional services costs relating to our investment in foundational technology projects, $29.3 million in fund-related client and administrative expenses, $11.5 million in travel and entertainment expenses, and $10.8 million in market data services costs.
Transaction, Integration and Restructuring
Transaction, integration and restructuring expenses include costs related to the acquisition and integration of a business and costs incurred by the company to restructure business operations to improve overall efficiency and longer-term profit, including legal, regulatory, advisory, valuation, professional services and consulting fees as well as costs for travel, severance, temporary staff and contract terminations.
Transaction, integration and restructuring charges were $21.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2022 (year ended December 31, 2021: $65.9 million benefit).
Transaction and integration expense (excluding restructuring) was a benefit to expense of $43.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to a benefit to expense of $186.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2021. The benefit in 2022 was primarily due to $55.0 million of recoveries related to the previously disclosed OppenheimerFunds acquisition-related matter. The benefit in 2021 was primarily due to a $131.1 million reduction to the OppenheimerFunds acquisition-related liability and $100.0 million of recoveries received related to the matter (See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, - Note 18, "Commitments and Contingencies," for additional details).
Restructuring costs were $64.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 (year ended December 31, 2021: $120.6 million). Restructuring costs related to the strategic evaluation were $41.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 (year ended December 31, 2021: $100.5 million) and are primarily composed of compensation and property, office and technology costs (see Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, - Note 13, "Restructuring," for additional details). The remaining restructuring costs are primarily composed of professional service costs related to other initiatives.
Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Income, Operating Margin and Adjusted Operating Margin
Operating income was $1,317.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $1,788.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Operating margin (operating income divided by operating revenues), decreased to 21.8% for the year ended December 31, 2022 from 25.9% in the year ended December 31, 2021. Adjusted operating income decreased to $1,614.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 from $2,182.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2021. Adjusted operating margin decreased to 34.8% for the year ended December 31, 2022 from 41.5% in the year ended December 31, 2021. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for a reconciliation of operating revenues to net revenues, a reconciliation of operating income to adjusted operating income and additional important disclosures regarding net revenues, adjusted operating income and adjusted operating margin.

The decrease is primarily driven by decreases in private equity investments and our joint venture investment in IGW due to lower revenue as discussed above, which were partially offset by an increase in the earnings of the real estate investments.
Interest expense
Interest expense was $85.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $94.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The decrease is primarily driven by the early redemption of $600 million of our senior notes in May 2022.
Other gains and losses, net
Other gains and losses was a net loss of $139.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to a net gain of $120.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The net loss in 2022 included $17.9 million of losses related to the mark-to-market on seed money investments and $132.5 million of losses on investments and instruments held for our deferred compensation plans which were partially offset by $9.7 million of gains on pension and other investments.
Other income/(expense) of CIP
Other income/(expense) of CIP includes interest and dividend income, interest expense, and realized and unrealized gains and losses on the underlying investments and debt owned by CIP. For the year ended December 31, 2022, interest and dividend income of CIP increased by $94.6 million to $374.3 million (year ended December 31, 2021: $279.7 million). Interest expense of CIP increased by $62.5 million to $223.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 (year ended December 31, 2021: $160.7 million). The increase in interest income and interest expense was primarily due to higher net interest income earned by the CLOs in 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2022, other gains and losses of CIP were a net loss of $126.9 million, as compared to a net gain of $390.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The net loss during 2022 was attributable to market-driven losses on investments held by consolidated funds.
Net impact of CIP and related noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities
The consolidation of investment products did not have an impact on net income attributable to Invesco for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. The adjustment to net income for the net income/(loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities represent the CIP profit or loss attributable to third-party investors. The impact of any realized or unrealized gains or losses attributable to the interests of third-parties which is reflected in other income/(expense) of CIP, is offset by this adjustment to arrive at net income attributable to Invesco. Also, the net income or loss of CIP are taxed at the investor level, not at the product level; therefore, a tax provision is not reflected in the net impact of CIP.
Additionally, CIP represent less than 1% of the company's AUM. Therefore, the net gains or losses of CIP are not indicative of the performance of the company's aggregate AUM.

Income Tax Expense
Our effective tax rate increased to 25.8% for the year ended December 31, 2022 from 21.2% for the year ended December 31, 2021 primarily due to the decline in income attributable to CIP and the change in the mix of income across tax jurisdictions. For additional income tax information, refer to Note 15, "Taxation," in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
Schedule of Non-GAAP Information
We utilize the following non-GAAP performance measures: net revenue (and by calculation, net revenue yield on AUM), adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income attributable to Invesco and adjusted diluted EPS. The company believes the adjusted measures provide valuable insight into the company’s ongoing operational performance and assist in comparisons to its competitors. These measures also assist the company’s management with the establishment of operational budgets and forecasts. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures are operating revenues (and by calculation, gross revenue yield on AUM), operating income, operating margin, net income attributable to Invesco and diluted EPS. Each of these measures is discussed more fully below.
The following are reconciliations of operating revenues, operating income (and by calculation, operating margin) and net income attributable to Invesco (and by calculation, diluted EPS) on a U.S. GAAP basis to a non-GAAP basis of net revenues, adjusted operating income (and by calculation, adjusted operating margin) and adjusted net income attributable to Invesco (and by calculation, adjusted diluted EPS). These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as substitutes for any U.S. GAAP measures and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Additional reconciling items may be added in the future to these non-GAAP measures if deemed appropriate. The tax effects related to the reconciling items have been calculated based on the tax rate attributable to the jurisdiction to which the transaction relates. Notes to the reconciliations follow the tables.

* Operating margin is equal to operating income divided by operating revenues.
** Adjusted operating margin is equal to adjusted operating income divided by net revenues.
*** Adjusted diluted EPS is equal to adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. divided by the weighted average number of common and restricted common shares outstanding.
(1) Invesco Great Wall: The company reflects 100% of Invesco Great Wall in its net revenues and adjusted operating expenses. The company’s non-GAAP operating results reflect the economics of these holdings on a basis consistent with the underlying AUM and flows. Adjusted net income is reduced by the amount of earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests.
(2) Revenue Adjustments: The company calculates net revenues by reducing operating revenues to exclude fees that are passed through to external parties who perform functions on behalf of, and distribute, the company’s managed funds. The net revenue presentation assists in identifying the revenue contribution generated by the company, removing distortions caused by the differing distribution channel fees and allowing for a fair comparison with U.S. peer investment managers and within Invesco’s own investment units. Additionally, management evaluates net revenue yield on AUM, which is equal to net revenues divided by average AUM during the reporting period, as an indicator of the basis point net revenues we receive for each dollar of AUM we manage.
Investment management fees are adjusted by renewal commissions and certain administrative fees. Service and distribution fees are primarily adjusted by distribution fees passed through to broker dealers for certain share classes and pass through fund-related costs. Other is primarily adjusted by transaction fees passed through to third parties.

Table of Contents
(3) CIP: See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 19, “Consolidated Investment Products,” for a detailed analysis of the impact to the company’s Consolidated Financial Statements from the consolidation of CIP. The reconciling items increase net revenues to reflect the management and performance fees earned by Invesco on the CIP, which are eliminated upon consolidation, and remove the underlying revenues and expenses of the CIP that have been included in the U.S. GAAP Consolidated Statements of Income.
The company believes that the consolidation of investment products may impact a reader’s analysis of our underlying results of operations and could result in investor confusion or the production of information about the company by analysts or external credit rating agencies that is not reflective of the underlying results of operations and financial condition of the company. Accordingly, management believes that it is appropriate to adjust operating revenues and operating income for the impact of CIP in calculating the respective net revenues and adjusted operating income.
(4) Transaction, integration and restructuring related adjustments: The company believes it is useful to investors and other users of our Consolidated Financial Statements to adjust for the transaction, integration and restructuring charges in arriving at adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin and adjusted diluted EPS, as this will aid comparability of our results period to period, and aid comparability with peer companies that may not have similar acquisition and restructuring related charges. See "Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021 -- Transaction, Integration and Restructuring" for additional details.
(5) Amortization of intangible assets: The company believes it is useful to investors and other users of our financial statements to remove amortization expense related to acquired assets net of the tax benefits realized on the tax amortization of goodwill and intangible assets in arriving at adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin and adjusted diluted EPS, as this will aid comparability of our results period to period, and aid comparability with peer companies that may not have similar acquisition-related charges.
(6) Market movement on deferred compensation plan liabilities: Certain deferred compensation plan awards involve a return to the employee linked to the appreciation (depreciation) of specified investments. Invesco hedges economically the exposure to market movements for these investments.
Since these plans are hedged economically, management believes it is useful to reflect the offset ultimately achieved from hedging the market exposure in the calculation of adjusted operating income (and by calculation, adjusted operating margin) and adjusted net income (and by calculation, adjusted diluted EPS) to produce results that will be more comparable period to period.
(7) General and administrative: The adjustments in 2022 and 2020 related to the previously disclosed S&P 500 equal weight funds rebalancing correction. The 2022 adjustment removes insurance recoveries related to the fund-related loss. The 2020 adjustment removes the fund-related loss from adjusted operating income and adjusted net income.
(8) Change in contingent consideration: The adjustments in 2021 and 2020 represents the change in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities for acquired investment management contracts.
(9) Impact of income tax rate changes: The company believes it is useful to investors and other users of our financial statements to remove non-cash income tax (benefits)/expense related to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities due to enactment of changes in corporate income tax rates.
(10) Other reconciling items: The adjustment in 2020 primarily relates to a tax benefit related to the reversal of an accrual for an unrecognized tax benefit. This benefit has been removed from the company’s non-GAAP results to be consistent with the exclusion of the tax expense for the accrual in a prior period.

Investments
As disclosed in Note 3, Investments, balances comprise largely equity method investments in our Chinese joint venture, seed money and co-investments in affiliated funds, and investments related to the company’s deferred compensation plans.
As of December 31, 2022, the company had $909.2 million in seed capital and co-investments (December 31, 2021: $856.7 million), including direct investments in CIP. Total seed capital and co-investments is presented as a helpful measure for investors and represents our net investment including our net investment in CIP, net of deferred compensation investments, joint ventures and other investments. The following table reconciles the investment balance to the total seed capital and co-investment balance.

Assets held for policyholders and policyholder payables
One of our subsidiaries, Invesco Pensions Limited, is an insurance company that was established to facilitate retirement savings plans in the U.K. The entity holds assets that are managed for its clients on its balance sheet with an equal and offsetting liability. The decrease in the balance of these accounts from $1,893.6 million at December 31, 2021 to $668.7 million at December 31, 2022, resulted from net business outflows of $1,038.2 million and negative foreign exchange rate movements of $64.8 million, and negative market movements of $121.9 million.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our capital structure, together with available cash balances, cash flows generated from operations, existing capacity under our credit facility and further capital market activities, if necessary, should provide us with sufficient resources to meet present and future cash needs, including operating, debt and other obligations as they come due and anticipated future capital requirements.

On May 6, 2022, the company completed an early redemption of the $600 million, 3.125% Senior Notes due on November 30, 2022 and successfully managed debt down to $1.5 billion, the lowest level in 10 years. As of December 31, 2022, the balance on the $1.5 billion capacity credit facility was zero.
In the ordinary course of business, Invesco enters into contracts or purchase obligations with third parties whereby the third parties provide services to or on behalf of Invesco. Purchase obligations represent fixed-price contracts, which are either non-cancelable or cancellable with a penalty. As of December 31, 2022, the company's purchase obligations totaled $770.7 million (December 31, 2021: $619.7 million) and primarily reflect standard service contracts for portfolio, market data, office-related services and third-party marketing and promotional services. Purchase obligations are recorded as liabilities in the company's Consolidated Financial Statements when services are provided.

Capital Management
Our capital management priorities have evolved with the growth and success of our business and include, in no particular order of priority: reinvestment in the business, maintaining a strong balance sheet and returning capital to shareholders longer term through a combination of modestly increasing dividends and share repurchases.
Our capital process is executed in a manner consistent with our desire to maintain strong, investment grade credit ratings. As of the date of our filing, Invesco held credit ratings of A3/Stable, BBB+/Stable and A/Stable from Moody's, S&P, and Fitch, respectively.
Other Items
Certain of our subsidiaries are required to maintain minimum levels of capital. Such requirements may change from time-to-time as additional guidance is released based on a variety of factors, including balance sheet composition, assessment of risk exposures and governance, and review from regulators. These and other similar provisions of applicable laws and regulations may have the effect of limiting withdrawals of capital, repayment of intercompany loans and payment of dividends by such entities. Our financial condition or liquidity could be adversely affected if certain of our subsidiaries are unable to distribute funds to us.
All of our regulated European Union (EU) and U.K. subsidiaries are subject to consolidated capital requirements under applicable EU and U.K. requirements, and we maintain capital within this European sub-group to satisfy these regulations. We meet these requirements in part by holding cash and cash equivalents. This retained cash can be used for general business purposes in the European sub-group in the countries where it is located. Due to the capital restrictions, the ability to transfer cash between certain jurisdictions may be limited. In addition, transfers of cash between international jurisdictions may have adverse tax consequences. We are in compliance with all regulatory minimum net capital requirements. As of December 31, 2022, the company's minimum regulatory capital requirement was $639.8 million (December 31, 2021: $724.9 million); the decrease was primarily driven by the impact of foreign exchange rate movements in the U.K. The total amount of non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents was $755.4 million at December 31, 2022 (December 31, 2021: $1,088.3 million).
The consolidation of $8,934.5 million and $6,590.4 million of total assets and debt of CIP as of December 31, 2022, respectively, did not impact the company’s liquidity and capital resources. See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 19, “Consolidated Investment Products,” for additional details.

Cash Flows Discussion
The ability to consistently generate cash flow from operations in excess of dividend payments, common share repurchases, capital expenditures and ongoing operating expenses is one of our company's fundamental financial strengths. Operations continue to be financed from current earnings and borrowings.

Operating cash flows include the receipt of investment management and other fees generated from AUM, offset by operating expenses and changes in operating assets and liabilities. Although some receipts and payments are seasonal, particularly bonus payments which are paid out during the first quarter, in general, after allowing for the change in cash held by CIP and investment activities, our operating cash flows move in the same direction as our operating income.
Cash inflows for the year ended December 31, 2022, excluding the impact of CIP, included a $470.5 million decrease in operating income, net investment purchase of $41.0 million, including seed money and deferred compensation investments (2021: net investment redemptions of $62.1 million) and an Invesco Great Wall dividend of $65.5 million (2021: $38.8 million). Inflows were partially offset by net outflows from the changes in payables and receivables due to the timing of payments and receipts.
Investing Activities
Cash outflows for the year ended December 31, 2022, excluding the impact of CIP, includes a net outflow of $101.2 million, which is comprised of purchases of investments of $274.3 million (year ended December 31, 2021: $210.7 million), partially offset by collected proceeds of $173.1 million from sales and returns of capital of investments (year ended December 31, 2021: $227.0 million).
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the company had capital expenditures of $192.9 million (2021: $108.8 million). Our capital expenditures related principally to technology initiatives related to investments in foundational technology projects as well as facilities costs. A portion of these facilities costs relate to leasehold improvements made to various buildings and workspaces in several global locations, including preparations for our move to our new Atlanta headquarters.

Financing Activities
Financing cash outflows during the year ended December 31, 2022 included the $600.0 million redemption of the senior notes due November 2022 (2021: none), $334.8 million of common dividend payments for dividends declared in January, April, July and October 2022 (year ended December 31, 2021: dividends paid of $307.7 million), $236.8 million of preferred dividend payments for dividends declared in January, April, July and October 2022 (year ended December 31, 2021: $236.8 million), the repurchase of $200 million of common stock (year ended December 31, 2021: none), and the payment of $44.7 million to meet employees' withholding tax obligations on common share vestings (2021: $60.9 million). The year ended December 31, 2021 also included a $309.4 million settlement of the forward contracts on treasury shares, the return of $104.1 million of net collateral on the forward contracts to the counterparty, and a repayment of $11.8 million of contingent consideration. Net borrowings under the credit facility were zero during the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Dividends
When declared, Invesco pays dividends on a quarterly basis in arrears. Holders of our preferred shares are eligible to receive dividends at an annual rate of 5.9% of the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, or $59 per share per annum. The preferred stock dividend is payable quarterly on a non-cumulative basis when, if and as declared by our board of directors. However, if we have not declared and paid or set aside for payment full quarterly dividends on the preferred stock for a particular dividend period, we may not declare or pay dividends on, or redeem, purchase or acquire, our common stock or other junior securities in the next succeeding dividend period. In addition, if we have not declared and paid or set aside for payment quarterly dividends on the preferred stock for six quarterly periods, whether or not consecutive, the number of directors of the company will be increased by two and the holders of the preferred shares shall have the right to elect such two additional members of the Board of Directors.
On January 24, 2023 the company declared a fourth quarter 2022 dividend of $0.1875 per common share to the holders of common shares, payable on March 2, 2023, to shareholders of record at the close of business on February 16, 2023 with an ex-dividend date of February 15, 2023.
On January 24, 2023, the company announced a preferred dividend of $14.75 per preferred share to the holders of preferred shares, representing the period from December 1, 2022 through February 28, 2023, payable on March 1, 2023, to shareholders of record at the close of business on February 15, 2023.
The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will depend upon, among other factors, our earnings, financial condition and capital requirements at the time such declaration and payment are considered. The company has a policy of managing dividends in a prudent fashion, with due consideration given to profit levels, overall debt levels and historical dividend payouts.
Common Share Repurchase Plan
During 2022, the company repurchased 8.9 million shares in the open market at a cost of $200 million. The company did not purchase any of its shares in the open market during the year ended December 31, 2021. At December 31, 2022, approximately $532.2 million remained authorized under the company's common share repurchase authorization approved by the Board on July 22, 2016 (December 31, 2021: $732.2 million).
Debt
The carrying value of our debt at December 31, 2022 was $1,487.6 million (December 31, 2021: $2,085.1 million), See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 8, “Debt,” for additional disclosures.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, the company's weighted average cost of debt was 4.15% (year ended December 31, 2021: 3.95%).
Financial covenants under the credit facility agreement include: (i) the quarterly maintenance of an Adjusted debt/Earnings before income tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) leverage ratio, as defined in the credit facility agreement, of not greater than 3.25:1.00, (ii) an interest coverage ratio (EBITDA, as defined in the credit facility agreement/interest payable for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ended before the date of determination) of not less than 4.00:1.00. As of December 31, 2022, we were in compliance with our financial covenants. At December 31, 2022, our leverage ratio was 0.78:1.00 (December 31, 2021: 0.79:1.00), and our interest coverage ratio was 19.51:1.00 (December 31, 2021: 25.21:1.00).

____________
(1) Adjustments for unrealized gains and losses from investments, as defined in our credit facility, may also include non-cash gains and losses on investments to the extent that they do not represent anticipated future cash receipts or expenditures.
(2) Unusual or otherwise non-recurring gains and losses, as defined in our credit facility, are adjusted for in the determination of EBITDA. The insurance recoveries related to the OppenheimerFunds acquisition-related matter are considered unusual and have been removed from the determination of EBITDA.
(3) EBITDA and Adjusted debt are non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management in connection with certain debt covenant calculations under our credit agreement. The calculation of EBITDA above (a reconciliation from net income attributable to Invesco Ltd.) is defined by our credit facility agreement, and therefore net income attributable to Invesco is the most appropriate GAAP measure from which to reconcile to EBITDA. The calculation of Adjusted debt is defined in our credit facility and equals debt of $1,487.6 million plus $2.7 million in letters of credit less $200.0 million of excess unrestricted cash (cash and cash equivalents less the minimum regulatory capital requirement, not to exceed $200 million).
The discussion that follows identifies risks associated with the company's liquidity and capital resources. The Item 1. Business -- Risk Management section contains a broader discussion of the company's overall approach to risk management.
Credit and Liquidity Risk
The company manages its capital by reviewing annual and projected cash flow forecasts and by monitoring credit, liquidity and market risks, such as interest rate and foreign currency risks (as discussed in Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk”), through measurement and analysis. The company is primarily exposed to credit risk through its cash and cash equivalent deposits, which are held by external firms. The company invests its cash balances in its own institutional money market products, as well as with external high credit-quality financial institutions. These arrangements create exposure to concentrations of credit risk.
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to meet an obligation. All cash and cash equivalent balances are subject to credit risk, as they represent deposits made by the company with external banks and other institutions. As of December 31, 2022, our maximum exposure to credit risk related to our cash and cash equivalent balances is $1,234.7 million. See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 2, "Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities" for information regarding cash and cash equivalents invested in affiliated money market funds.
The company does not utilize credit derivatives or similar instruments to mitigate the maximum exposure to credit risk. The company does not expect any counterparties to its financial instruments to fail to meet their obligations.

Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities as the same become due. The company is exposed to liquidity risk through its $1,487.6 million in total debt. The company actively manages liquidity risk by preparing cash flow forecasts for future periods, reviewing them regularly with senior management, maintaining a committed credit facility, scheduling significant gaps between major debt maturities and engaging external financing sources in regular dialogue.
Effects of Inflation
Inflation can impact our organization primarily in two ways. First, inflationary pressures can result in increases in our cost structure, especially to the extent that large expense components such as compensation are impacted. To the degree that these expense increases are not recoverable or cannot be counterbalanced through pricing increases due to the competitive environment, our net income could be negatively impacted. Secondly, the value of the assets that we manage may be negatively impacted when inflationary expectations result in a rising interest rate environment. A decline in the value of AUM could lead to reduced revenues as management fees are generally calculated based upon the size of AUM.
Off Balance Sheet Commitments
See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 18, “Commitments and Contingencies,” for more information regarding undrawn capital commitments.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 1, “Accounting Policies." Critical accounting policies and estimates are those that require complex management judgment regarding matters that are highly uncertain at the time policies were applied and estimates were made. Different estimates reasonably could have been used in the current period that would have had a material effect on these Consolidated Financial Statements, and changes in these estimates are likely to occur from period-to-period in the future. The discussion below provides information on the significant judgments and assumptions applied in each area and should be read in conjunction with the significant accounting policies footnote previously referenced.
Goodwill
During our annual impairment test in 2022 and 2021, management performed the optional qualitative approach which indicated that a quantitative assessment of the goodwill impairment test was not necessary. The company cannot predict the occurrence of future events that might adversely affect the reported value of goodwill that totaled $8,557.7 million and $8,882.5 million at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Such events include, but are not limited to, strategic decisions made in response to economic and competitive conditions, the impact of the economic environment on the company's AUM or any other material negative change in AUM and related fee rates.
When management utilizes the option to first assess goodwill impairment on a qualitative basis, the sum of certain events and circumstances is assessed to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Such events and circumstances include macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall financial performance of the company and/or significant changes in share price. If the qualitative assessment indicates that an impairment may be likely or management elected to not perform the qualitative assessment, management performs a quantitative test to determine the fair value of the reporting unit. The fair value of the reporting unit is generally determined using an income approach where estimated future cash flows are discounted to arrive at a single present value amount. The income approach includes inputs that require significant management judgment, including AUM growth rates, projected effective fee rates, pre-tax profit margins, effective tax rates and discount rates.
The quantitative test includes assumptions updated for current market conditions, including the company's updated forecasts for changes in AUM due to market gains or losses, net long-term flows and the corresponding changes in revenue and expenses. Market gains are based upon historical returns of the S&P 500 index, treasury bond returns and treasury bill returns, as applicable to the company's AUM mix on the testing date. The most sensitive of these assumptions are the AUM growth rate, fee rates, operating expense and the discount rate to determine present value. The discount rates used are estimates of the weighted average cost of capital for the investment management sector reflecting the overall industry risks associated with future cash flows and have been calculated consistently from period to period. While the company believes all assumptions
57
Table of Contents
utilized in our assessment are reasonable and appropriate, changes in these estimates could produce different fair value amounts and therefore different goodwill impairment assessments.
Intangible Assets
Where evidence exists that the underlying agreements have a high likelihood of continued renewal at little or no cost to the company, the intangible asset is assigned an indefinite life and reviewed for impairment on an annual basis. Similar to goodwill, management has the option to first assess indefinite-lived intangible assets for qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test. Definite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable (i.e., the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the intangible asset). In addition, management's judgment is required to estimate the period over which definite-lived intangible assets will contribute to the company's cash flows and the pattern in which these assets will be consumed. A change in the remaining useful life of any of these assets, or the reclassification of an indefinite-lived intangible asset to a definite-lived intangible asset, could have a significant impact on the company's amortization expense, which was $63.8 million, $62.9 million and $62.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment annually as of October 1 or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. If a quantitative assessment is required, the impairment test consists of a comparison of the fair value of an intangible asset with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. If required, fair value is generally determined using an income approach where estimated future cash flows are discounted to arrive at a single present value amount. The income approach includes inputs that require significant management judgment, including AUM growth rates, product mix, projected effective fee rates, pre-tax profit margins, effective tax rates and discount rates. The most sensitive of these assumptions to the determination of the estimated fair value are the AUM growth rate, fee rates, operating expense and discount rate, which is a weighted average cost of capital including consideration of company size premiums. Changes in these estimates could produce different fair value amounts and therefore different impairment conclusions. During 2022 and 2021, our annual impairment reviews of indefinite-lived intangible assets determined that no impairment existed at the respective review dates, the classifications of indefinite-lived and definite-lived remain appropriate, and no changes to the expected lives of the definite-lived intangible assets were required.
Income Taxes
The company files U.S. federal, state and numerous foreign income tax returns. The income tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations by the taxpayer and the relevant taxing authorities. Significant judgment is required in the determination of our annual income tax provision, which includes the assessment of deferred tax assets and uncertain tax positions, as well as the interpretation and application of existing and newly enacted tax laws, regulation changes and new judicial rulings. Therefore, it is possible that actual results will vary from those recognized in our Consolidated Financial Statements due to changes in the interpretation of applicable guidance or as a result of examinations by taxing authorities.
Deferred tax assets, net of any associated valuation allowance, have been recognized based on management's belief that taxable income of the appropriate character, more likely than not, will be sufficient to realize the benefits of these assets over time. In the event that actual results differ from our expectations, or if our historical trends of positive operating income changes, we may be required to record a valuation allowance on some or all of these deferred tax assets, which may have a significant effect on our financial condition and results of operations. In assessing whether a valuation allowance should be established against a deferred income tax asset, the company considers all available evidence, which includes the nature, frequency and severity of recent losses, forecasts of future profitability and the duration of statutory carry back and carry forward periods, among other factors.
In the assessment of uncertain tax positions, significant judgment is required to estimate the range of possible outcomes and determine the probability, on a more likely than not basis, of favorable or unfavorable outcomes upon ultimate settlement of an issue. Changes in estimate of uncertain tax positions occur periodically due to changes in interpretations of tax laws, the status of examinations by tax authorities and new regulatory or judicial guidance that could impact the relative merits and risk of tax positions. These changes, when they occur, impact tax expense and can materially impact results of operations. The company recognizes any interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits on the Consolidated Statements of Income as components of income tax expense.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Management has elected to apply the FAST Act Modernization and Simplification of Regulation S-K, which provides the option to limit the discussion to the two most recent calendar years. The discussion and analysis disclosed herein apply to material changes in the Consolidated Financial Statements for 2021 and 2020. For the comparison of 2020 and 2019, see the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part II, Item 7 of the company’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 19, 2021. The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of Invesco Ltd. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “company” or “Invesco”) should be read in conjunction with the “Forward-looking Statements” disclosure set forth in Part I and the “Risk Factors” set forth in Item 1A of Part I of this Annual Report on Form 10‑K, each of which describe our risks, uncertainties and other important factors in more detail.
Executive Overview
The following executive overview summarizes the significant trends affecting our results of operations and financial condition for the periods presented. This overview and the remainder of this management's discussion and analysis supplements and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Invesco Ltd. and its subsidiaries and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The table below summarizes the year ended December 31 returns based on price appreciation/(depreciation) of several major market indices for 2021 and 2020:

The company’s financial results are impacted by the fluctuations in exchange rates against the U.S. Dollar, as discussed in the “Results of Operations” section below.
Invesco benefits from our long-term efforts to ensure a diversified base of AUM. One of Invesco's core strengths, and a key differentiator for the company within the industry, is our broad diversification across client domiciles, asset classes and distribution channels. Our geographic diversification recognizes growth opportunities in different parts of the world. This broad diversification mitigates the impact on Invesco of different market cycles and enables the company to take advantage of growth opportunities in various markets and channels.
Update on significant events and transactions
We remain highly focused on our capital management and believe we are making solid progress in our efforts to build financial flexibility. Our credit facility balance was zero as of December 31, 2021, consistent with our commitment to improve our leverage profile. We fully settled our remaining forward contracts liability of $309 million in the first half of 2021. We renegotiated our $1.5 billion credit facility, extending the maturity date to April 26, 2026 under favorable terms and conditions. As a result of our progress, the Board approved a 10% increase in our dividend to $0.17 per share in the second quarter of 2021. We remain committed to a sustainable dividend policy and to returning capital to shareholders longer term through a combination of modestly increasing dividends and share repurchases. On January 25, 2022, the company announced its intention to repurchase up to $200 million in common stock in the first quarter of 2022, subject to market conditions.

As previously disclosed by the company, in the fourth quarter of 2019, the company identified an accounting matter related to certain OppenheimerFunds funds’ financial statements and in 2020 recorded an estimated liability related to the matter. In 2021, the company reduced the estimated liability to $254.3 million, which resulted in a benefit of $131.1 million recorded in transaction, integration and restructuring expense. During the fourth quarter of 2021, Invesco paid $254.3 million in fund shareholder reimbursements to complete remediation of this matter. Also in the fourth quarter of 2021, the company received an insurance recovery of $100.0 million related to the matter, which is reflected as a benefit to transaction, integration and restructuring expense. See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data Note 20, "Commitments and Contingencies," for additional details regarding the accounting matter.
As previously disclosed, we have undertaken a strategic evaluation of our business focusing on four key areas of our expense base: our organizational model, our real estate footprint, management of third party spend and technology and operations efficiency. Through this evaluation, we have invested and will continue to invest in key areas of growth aligned with our strategic plan, including ETFs, Fixed Income, China, Solutions, Alternatives and Global Equities, which has had a positive impact on the results for the year. This helped us achieve six straight quarters of net long-term inflows across a variety of products.
While investing in key areas of growth, we plan to create permanent annual net operating expense improvements of $200 million. A significant element of the savings will be generated from realigning our workforce to support key areas of growth as well as repositioning some of our workforce to lower cost locations. We have exceeded our cumulative 2021 targeted savings of $150 million. In 2021, we realized $137 million in annualized savings, which when combined with the $30 million in annualized savings realized in 2020, results in $167 million, or 84%, of our $200 million net savings expectation. The remainder of our net savings is expected to be realized by the end of 2022. Remaining restructuring costs related to the strategic evaluation are estimated to be in a range of $30 million to $55 million through the end of 2022, with nearly $220 million incurred since we began the strategic evaluation.
In April 2021, we announced plans to transition to State Street’s Alpha platform, an asset servicing platform that will integrate front, middle and back office investment services. The migration to Alpha is expected to simplify Invesco’s investment infrastructure to improve scale, reduce risk and improve operating efficiency, allowing Invesco to create a global operating model that will standardize and streamline its investment operations. The integration began in the second quarter of 2021, with completion scheduled in 2024.
Managing our business and meeting client needs through COVID-19
Invesco is committed to helping our employees, our clients and our communities navigate the challenges presented by the continued impacts of COVID-19. The primary focus of our efforts is to ensure the health and safety of our employees while preserving our ability to serve clients and manage assets in a highly dynamic market environment. As always, we are committed to helping our clients achieve their investment objectives through disciplined long-term investing. To this end, we continue to proactively engage with our clients, primarily virtually, to help them better navigate market uncertainty by providing thought leadership and other value-added services.
Our portfolio managers, research analysts and traders are also successfully working remotely or in secure locations with access to all systems necessary to do their jobs and an ability to connect with their teams in managing client assets. Additionally, our operational, control and support teams are primarily working in a remote environment. In light of the remote working environment, we continue to assess and enhance our business continuity plans as well as our internal controls with appropriate adjustments made to address the environment.
Looking ahead, we will balance our employees’ desire for increased flexibility with the needs of our clients and our business as we define our approach to transitioning to “new normal” ways of working in a post-COVID-19 world. The vast majority of employees will be working in their assigned office location at least part of the time and will either be working in-office, working remotely or (for the significant majority of employees) working in a hybrid of these two models. Decisions regarding office location and flexibility are supported by internal research focused on the needs of our employees and clients. This overall, thoughtful and coordinated approach helps ensure our ability to continue to meet the needs of our clients as well as our employees.

Other External Factors Impacting Invesco
Invesco, similar to the broader industry, is transitioning its corporate and investment exposure away from LIBOR to alternative risk-free rates according to regulator and working group defined timelines and guidance. Invesco continues to actively monitor its portfolios holding LIBOR based instruments and strategies utilizing LIBOR as a benchmark and/or performance target and remediate as necessary.
Regarding operational readiness, Invesco has implemented a number of process and system enhancements to support the remediation of legacy LIBOR instruments as well as trading of new alternative reference rate-linked instruments. Invesco continues to engage external service providers and technology vendors to validate whether they can support transition activities and requirements, including processing of fallback language following the applicable LIBOR cessation dates. Invesco continues to monitor overall industry transition progress and completes ongoing analysis of the suitability of alternative risk-free rates in executing Invesco’s LIBOR transition plan. Despite Invesco’s preparations, the discontinuance of LIBOR may adversely affect the amount of interest or other amounts payable or receivable on certain portfolio investments. These changes may also impact the market liquidity and market value of these portfolio investments.
Presentation of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Impact of Consolidated Investment Products
The company provides investment management services to, and has transactions with, various retail mutual funds and similar entities, private equity, real estate, fund-of-funds, collateralized loan obligation products (CLOs) and other investment entities sponsored by the company for the investment of client assets in the normal course of business. The company serves as the investment manager, making day-to-day investment decisions concerning the assets of the products. The company is required to consolidate certain of these managed funds from time-to-time, as discussed more fully in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 1, "Accounting Policies -- Basis of Accounting and Consolidation." Investment products that are consolidated are referred to in this Form 10-K (Report) as consolidated investments products (CIP). The company's economic risk with respect to each investment in CIP is limited to its equity ownership and any uncollected management and performance fees.
The majority of the company's CIP balances are CLO-related. The collateral assets of the CLOs are held solely to satisfy the obligations of the CLOs. The company has no right to the benefits from, nor does it bear the risks associated with, the collateral assets held by the CLOs, beyond the company's direct investments in, and management and performance fees generated from, the CLOs. If the company were to liquidate, the collateral assets would not be available to the general creditors of the company, and as a result, the company does not consider them to be company assets. Likewise, the investors in the CLOs have no recourse to the general credit of the company for the notes issued by the CLOs. The company therefore does not consider this debt to be a company liability.
The impact of CIP is so significant to the presentation of the company’s Consolidated Financial Statements that the company has elected to deconsolidate these products in its non-GAAP disclosures (among other adjustments). See Schedule of Non-GAAP Information for additional information regarding these adjustments. The following discussion therefore combines the results presented under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) with the company’s non-GAAP presentation. This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains four distinct sections, which follow after the Assets Under Management discussion:
•Results of Operations (year ended December 31, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020);
•Schedule of Non-GAAP Information;
•Balance Sheet Discussion; and
•Liquidity and Capital Resources.
To assess the impact of CIP on the company's Results of Operations and Balance Sheet Discussion, refer to Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements, Note 21, "Consolidated Investment Products." The impact on the company's results of operations is illustrated by a column which shows the dollar-value change in the consolidated figures, as caused by the consolidation of CIP. For example, the impact of CIP on operating revenues for the year ended December 31, 2021 was a reduction of $42.4 million. This indicates that their consolidation reduced consolidated revenues by this amount, reflecting the elimination upon their consolidation of the operating revenues earned by Invesco for managing these investment products.

(1)Net revenues is a non-GAAP financial measure. Net revenues are operating revenues plus the net revenues of our Great Wall joint venture; less pass-through revenue adjustments to investment management fees, service and distribution fees and other; plus management and performance fees earned from CIP. See "Schedule of Non-GAAP Information" for the reconciliation of operating revenues to net revenues.
(2)Adjusted operating income and adjusted operating margin are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted operating margin is adjusted operating income divided by net revenues. Adjusted operating income includes operating income plus the net operating income of our joint venture investments, the operating income impact of the consolidation of investment products, transaction, integration and restructuring adjustments, adjustments for amortization of intangibles, compensation expense related to market valuation changes in deferred compensation plans and other reconciling items. See "Schedule of Non-GAAP Information," for the reconciliation of operating income to adjusted operating income.
(3)Adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. and adjusted diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. is net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. adjusted to exclude the net income of CIP, transaction, integration and restructuring adjustments, adjustments for amortization of intangibles, adjustments for the tax benefits resulting from tax amortization of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, the net income impact of deferred compensation plans and other reconciling items. Adjustments made to net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. are tax-affected in arriving at adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. By calculation, adjusted diluted EPS is adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (for diluted EPS). See "Schedule of Non-GAAP Information," for the reconciliation of net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. to adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd.

(1) Excludes passive products, closed-end funds, private equity limited partnerships, non-discretionary funds, unit investment trusts, fund of funds with component funds managed by Invesco, stable value building block funds and CDOs. Certain funds and products were excluded from the analysis because of limited benchmark or peer group data. Had these been available, results may have been different. These results are preliminary and subject to revision.
AUM measured in the one, three, five and ten year quartile rankings represents 48%, 47%, 46% and 42% of total Invesco AUM, respectively, and AUM measured versus benchmark on a one, three, five and ten year basis represents 59%, 57%, 55% and 50% of total Invesco AUM as of December 31, 2021. Peer group rankings are sourced from a widely-used third party ranking agency in each fund’s market (e.g., Morningstar, IA, Lipper, eVestment, Mercer, Galaxy, SITCA, Value Research) and asset-weighted in USD. Rankings are as of prior quarter-end for most institutional products and prior month-end for Australian retail funds due to their late release by third parties. Rankings are calculated against all funds in each peer group. Rankings for the primary share class of the most representative fund in each composite are applied to all products within each composite. Performance assumes the reinvestment of dividends. Past performance is not indicative of future results and may not reflect an investor’s experience.
(2) Numbers in parenthesis reflect AUM for each investment product (see Note 1 above for exclusions) as a percentage of the total AUM for the 5 year peer group ($743.3 billion).
Assets Under Management
The following presentation and discussion of AUM includes Passive and Active AUM. Passive AUM include index-based ETFs, unit investment trusts (UITs), non-management fee earning AUM and other passive mandates. Active AUM is total AUM less Passive AUM.
Non-management fee earning AUM includes non-management fee earning ETFs, UIT and product leverage. The net flows in non-management fee earning AUM can be relatively short-term in nature and, due to the relatively low revenue yield, these can have a significant impact on overall net revenue yield.

Table of Contents
The AUM tables and the discussion below refer to certain AUM as long-term. Long-term inflows and the underlying reasons for the movements in this line item include investments from new clients, existing clients adding new accounts/funds or contributions/subscriptions into existing accounts/funds. Long-term outflows reflect client redemptions from accounts/funds and include the return of invested capital on the maturity. We present net flows into money market funds separately because shareholders of those funds typically use them as short-term funding vehicles and because their flows are particularly sensitive to short-term interest rate movements.

____________
(1) The acquisition of OppenheimerFunds business on May 24, 2019 added $224.4 billion in AUM at that date.
(2) Gross revenue yield on AUM is equal to annualized total operating revenues divided by average AUM, excluding Invesco Great Wall AUM. The average AUM for Invesco Great Wall was $84.0 billion in 2021 (2020: $50.0 billion, 2019: $35.6 billion). It is appropriate to exclude the average AUM of Invesco Great Wall for purposes of computing gross revenue yield on AUM, because the revenues resulting from these AUM are not presented in our operating revenues. Under U.S. GAAP, our share of the net income of Invesco Great Wall Fund Management Company (“Invesco Great Wall”) is recorded as equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates on our Consolidated Statements of Income. Gross revenue yield, the most comparable U.S. GAAP-based measure to net revenue yield, is not considered a meaningful effective fee rate measure. Additionally, the numerator of the gross revenue yield measure, operating revenues, excludes the management fees earned from CIP; however, the denominator of the measure includes the AUM of these investment products. Therefore, the gross revenue yield measure is not considered representative of the company’s effective fee rate from AUM.
(3) Net revenue yield on AUM is equal to annualized net revenues divided by average AUM. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for a reconciliation of operating revenues to net revenues.

Flows
There are numerous drivers of AUM inflows and outflows, including individual investor decisions to change investment preferences, fiduciaries and other gatekeepers making broad asset allocation decisions on behalf of their clients and reallocation of investments within portfolios. We are not a party to these asset allocation decisions, as the company does not generally have access to the underlying investor's decision-making process, including their risk appetite or liquidity needs. Therefore, the company is not in a position to provide meaningful information regarding the drivers of inflows and outflows.
Average AUM during the year ended December 31, 2021 were $1,499.9 billion, compared to $1,194.9 billion for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Market Returns
Market gains and losses include the net change in AUM resulting from changes in market values of the underlying securities from period to period. The table in the “Executive Overview” section of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis summarizes returns based on price appreciation/(depreciation) of several major market indices for the years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
Foreign Exchange Rates
During the year ended December 31, 2021, we experienced decreases in AUM of $6.3 billion due to changes in foreign exchange rates (December 31, 2020: AUM increased by $10.3 billion).
Revenue Yield
Changes in our AUM mix significantly impact our net revenue yield. Passive AUM generally earn a lower effective fee rate than active asset classes, and changes in the mix of products therefore have an impact on our net revenue yield. At the industry level, investors continue to shift towards passive products and away from active, and Invesco is well-positioned to respond to this trend due to the breadth, strength and diversified nature of our business. In addition, as a significant proportion of our AUM is based outside of the U.S., changes in foreign exchange rates result in a change to the mix of U.S. Dollar denominated AUM with AUM denominated in other currencies. As fee rates differ across geographic locations, changes to exchange rates have an impact on the net revenue yields.
In the year ended December 31, 2021, the net revenue yield was 35.1 basis points compared to 37.7 basis points in the year ended December 31, 2020, a decrease of 2.6 basis points.
During 2021, net revenue yield continued to decline as a result of client demand-driven shifts in the AUM mix towards passive, lower-fee products, which generally have lower fees than active products. In the year ended December 31, 2021, the net revenue yield on passive AUM was 12.3 basis points compared to 44.8 basis points on active AUM.
At December 31, 2021, passive AUM were $528.4 billion, representing 32.8% of total AUM at that date; whereas at December 31, 2020, passive AUM were $370.6 billion, representing 27.5% of our total AUM at that date.
Passive AUM includes our QQQ ETF, for which we do not receive a management fee but which delivers significant marketing and brand value and increases Invesco’s footprint, leadership and relevance in the ETF market. At December 31, 2021, the QQQ fund represented $214.9 billion, or 40.7% of passive AUM and 13.3% of total AUM. At December 31, 2020, the QQQ fund represented $152.5 billion, or 41.1% of passive AUM and 11.3% of total AUM.
Despite the growth in our QQQ ETF, the net revenue yield on passive AUM increased from 12.0 basis points for the year ended December 31, 2020 to 12.3 basis points for the year ended December 31, 2021, an increase of 0.3 basis points. We saw a greater proportion of inflows into relatively higher fee passive products.
At December 31, 2021, active AUM were $1,082.5 billion, representing 67.2% of total AUM at that date; whereas at December 31, 2020, active AUM were $979.3 billion, representing 72.5% of our total AUM at that date. We also saw a greater proportion of inflows into fixed income and relatively lower fee active products. These changes have decreased the net revenue yield on active AUM from 46.4 basis points for the year ended December 31, 2020 to 44.8 basis points for the year ended December 31, 2021.
34
Table of Contents
Also contributing to the decline in net revenue yield were the higher discretionary money market fee waivers, as mentioned in Note 1, "Accounting Policies," which negatively impacts net revenue yield on active AUM. The changes described above have adversely impacted our revenue and resulting revenue yields, and we expect they will continue to pressure revenues and yields in the near term.

_________
(1) Total revenue adjustments include investment management, service and distribution, and other revenues that are passed through and equal the same amount as the third party distribution, service and advisory expenses.
(2) Net revenues are operating revenues less revenue adjustments, plus net revenues from Invesco Great Wall, plus management and performance fees earned from CIP. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional important disclosures regarding the use of net revenues.
The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased operating revenues by $87.6 million, equivalent to 1.3% of total operating revenues during the year ended December 31, 2021 when compared to the year ended December 31, 2020 ($13.2 million increase in 2020 or 0.2% of 2020 total operating revenues).
Additionally, our revenues are directly influenced by the level and composition of our AUM. Therefore, movements in global capital market levels, net business inflows (or outflows) and changes in the mix of investment products between asset classes and geographies may materially affect our revenues from period to period.
Investment Management Fees
Investment management fees increased by $544.9 million (12.2%) in the year ended December 31, 2021, to $4,995.9 million (year ended December 31, 2020: $4,451.0 million). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased investment management fees by $75.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2021 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2020. After allowing for foreign exchange movements, investment management fees increased by $469.1 million (10.5%) as a result of a 25.5% increase in average AUM, partially offset by lower revenue yields when compared to the 2020 period. Net revenue yield has declined as a result of shifts in the AUM mix towards passive, lower-fee products. Additionally, higher discretionary money market fee waivers adversely impacted the net revenue yield on active AUM.
See the company's disclosures regarding the changes in AUM and revenue yields during the years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 in the “Assets Under Management” section above for additional information regarding the impact of changes in AUM on management fee yields.

Service and Distribution Fees
In the year ended December 31, 2021, service and distribution fees increased by $177.4 million (12.5%) to $1,596.4 million (year ended December 31, 2020: $1,419.0 million). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased service and distribution fees by $11.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2021 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2020. After allowing for foreign exchange movements, service and distribution fees increased by $166.1 million. The total increase is driven by higher distribution fees of $87.7 million, transfer agency fees of $43.6 million and administrative fees of $32.7 million. The increase is primarily driven by higher AUM to which these fees apply.
Performance Fees
Of our $1,610.9 billion in AUM at December 31, 2021, approximately $62.2 billion or 3.9%, could potentially earn performance fees, including carried interests and performance fees related to partnership investments and separate accounts. Of our $1,349.9 billion in AUM at December 31, 2020, approximately $59.1 billion or 4.4%, could potentially earn performance fees, including carried interests and performance fees related to partnership investments and separate accounts.
In the year ended December 31, 2021, performance fees decreased by $9.5 million (14.5%) to $56.1 million (year ended December 31, 2020: $65.6 million). Performance fees in 2021 were primarily generated from real estate, institutional products and various institutional mandates in Japan. Performance fees in 2020 were primarily generated from real estate, fixed income, UK closed end funds and institutional products.

In the year ended December 31, 2021, other revenues increased by $36.1 million (17.2%) to $246.1 million (year ended December 31, 2020: $210.0 million). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased other revenues by $0.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2021 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase in other revenues was primarily driven by increases in front end fees of $29.3 million and real estate transaction fees of $4.2 million.
Invesco Great Wall
The company’s most significant joint venture arrangement is our 49% investment in Invesco Great Wall Fund Management Company Limited (the “Invesco Great Wall” joint venture). Management believes that the revenues from Invesco Great Wall should be added to total operating revenues to arrive at net revenues, as it is important to evaluate the contribution to the business that Invesco Great Wall is making. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional disclosures regarding the use of net revenues.
Management reflects 100% of Invesco Great Wall in its net revenues and adjusted operating expenses. The company’s non-GAAP operating results reflect the economics of these holdings on a basis consistent with the underlying AUM and flows. Adjusted net income is reduced by the amount of earnings attributable to the 51% non-controlling interest.
Net revenues from Invesco Great Wall were $473.5 million and average AUM was $84.0 billion for the year ended December 31, 2021 (net revenues were $263.2 million and average AUM was $50.0 billion, for the year ended December 31, 2020). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements for the year ended December 31, 2021 increased net revenues from Invesco Great Wall by $29.6 million as compared to the year ended December 31, 2020. After allowing for foreign exchange movements, net revenues from Invesco Great Wall were $443.9 million. The increase in revenue is a result of higher AUM and improved net revenue yield on Invesco Great Wall.
Management, performance and other fees earned from CIP
Management believes that the consolidation of investment products may impact a reader's analysis of our underlying results of operations and could result in investor confusion or the production of information about the company by analysts or external credit rating agencies that is not reflective of the underlying results of operations and financial condition of the company. Accordingly, management believes that it is appropriate to adjust operating revenues for the impact of CIP in calculating net revenues. As management and performance fees earned by Invesco from the consolidated products are eliminated upon consolidation of the investment products, management believes that it is appropriate to add these operating revenues back in the calculation of net revenues. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional disclosures regarding the use of net revenues.

Management and performance fees earned from CIP increased by $2.6 million to $42.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2021 (year ended December 31, 2020: $39.8 million). The increase is due to increased management fees earned from newly launched retail funds and CLOs.

(1) In prior periods, amortization of intangible assets was included in the transaction, integration and restructuring line item. Beginning in 2021, amortization of intangible assets is presented on a separate line item. There is no impact on operating expenses, operating income or net income.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, operating expenses decreased by $118.9 million (2.3%) to $5,106.3 million (year ended December 31, 2020: $5,225.2 million). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased operating expenses by $79.5 million, or 1.6% of total operating expenses, during the year ended December 31, 2021 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2020.

Third-Party Distribution, Service and Advisory
Third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses include periodic “renewal” commissions paid to brokers and independent financial advisors for the continuing oversight of their clients' assets over the time they are invested and are payments for the servicing of client accounts. Renewal commissions are calculated based upon a percentage of the AUM value and apply to much of the company's non-U.S. retail operations. As discussed above, the revenues from the company’s U.S. retail operations include 12b-1 distribution fees, which are largely passed through to brokers who sell the funds as third-party distribution expenses along with additional marketing support distribution costs. Both the revenues and the costs are dependent on the underlying AUM of the brokers' clients. Third-party distribution expenses also include the amortization of upfront commissions paid to broker-dealers for sales of fund shares with a contingent deferred sales charge (a charge levied to the investor for client redemption of AUM within a certain contracted period of time). The upfront distribution commissions are amortized over the redemption period. Also included in third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses are sub-transfer agency fees that are paid to third parties for processing client common share purchases and redemptions, call center support and client reporting. These costs are reimbursed by the related funds.
Third-party distribution service and advisory expenses increased by $201.7 million (10.4%) in the year ended December 31, 2021 to $2,149.3 million (year ended December 31, 2020: $1,947.6 million). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased third-party costs by $24.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2021 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2020. After allowing for foreign exchange rate changes, the increase in costs was $177.6 million. Included are increases of $99.4 million in service fees (primarily 12b-1 and transfer agent fees), $29.9 million in unitary and fund expenses, $24.6 million in transaction fees, $11.3 million in asset and sales based fees, $10.8 million in front end load commissions and $5.6 million in renewal commissions, partially offset by a decrease in sales commissions of $6.0 million. The increase is primarily driven by higher average AUM, partially offset by changes in AUM mix as discussed above. See "Schedule of Non-GAAP Information" for additional disclosures.
Employee Compensation
Employee compensation includes salary, cash bonuses and common share-based payment plans designed to attract and retain the highest caliber employees. Employee staff benefit plan costs and payroll taxes are also included in employee compensation.
Employee compensation increased by $103.4 million (5.7%) to $1,911.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2021 (year ended December 31, 2020: $1,807.9 million). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased employee compensation by $33.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2021 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2020. After allowing for foreign exchange rate changes, the increase in employee compensation was $69.9 million. This increase was due to increases of $98.9 million in variable compensation due to improved performance of the company in 2021 as well as $34.3 million related to the mark-to-market on the deferred compensation liability. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $34.7 million in base salaries, staff benefits and other staff costs as well as a $28.6 million decrease in share-based compensation expenses. These decreases are the result of savings realized from our strategic evaluation, which includes realigning our client facing workforce to support key areas of growth and repositioning to lower cost locations.
Headcount at December 31, 2021 was 8,513 (December 31, 2020; 8,512).
Marketing
Marketing expenses include the cost of direct advertising of our products through trade publications, television and other media, and public relations costs, such as the marketing of the company's products through conferences or other sponsorships, and the cost of marketing-related employee travel.
Marketing expenses increased by $15.3 million (18.4%) in the year ended December 31, 2021 to $98.6 million (year ended December 31, 2020: $83.3 million). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased marketing expenses by $2.2 million. After allowing for foreign exchange rate movements, marketing expenses increased $13.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2021 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase was related to increased advertising partially offset by decreased sales literature and research and other marketing costs.

Property, Office and Technology
Property, office and technology expenses include rent and utilities for our various leased facilities, depreciation of company-owned property, capitalized software and computer equipment costs, minor non-capitalized computer equipment and software purchases and related maintenance payments, and costs related to externally provided operations, technology, middle office and back office management services.
Property, office and technology expenses increased by $13.7 million (2.7%) to $526.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2021 (year ended December 31, 2020: $512.3 million). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased property, office and technology expenses by $9.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2021 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2020. After allowing for foreign exchange rate movements, expenses increased $4.5 million. The increase was primarily driven by increases in software maintenance costs of $17.8 million and depreciation expenses of $7.2 million, partially offset by lower property expenses of $13.9 million and outsourced administration costs of $3.9 million.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses include professional services costs, such as information service subscriptions, irrecoverable indirect taxes, non-marketing related employee travel expenditures, consulting fees, audit, tax and legal fees, professional insurance costs and recruitment and training costs.
General and administrative expenses decreased by $56.7 million (11.8%) to $424.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2021 (year ended December 31, 2020: $480.8 million). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased general and administrative expenses by $10.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2021 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2020. After allowing for foreign exchange rate movements, the decrease was $67.2 million. The decrease was primarily driven by the $105.3 million S&P 500 equal weight funds rebalancing correction in 2020, partially offset by increases of $13.8 million in professional services costs, $11.5 million in charitable contributions to the Invesco foundation and other charitable causes, $7.9 million in market data services costs and $3.5 million in fund expenses incurred by CIP.
Transaction, Integration and Restructuring
The transaction, integration and restructuring charges reflect legal, regulatory, advisory, valuation and other professional services or consulting fees, and travel costs related to a business combination transaction or restructuring initiatives related to changes in the scope of the business or the manner in which the business is conducted. Also included in these charges are severance-related expenses and any contract termination costs associated with these efforts. Additionally, these charges reflect the costs of temporary staff involved in executing the transaction or initiatives, including incremental costs associated with achieving expense savings following a business combination or restructuring initiative.
Transaction, integration and restructuring charges were a benefit of $65.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2021 (year ended December 31, 2020: $330.8 million expense).
Transaction and integration expense (excluding restructuring) was a benefit of $186.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2021 (year ended December 31, 2020: $183.0 million expense), primarily related to a $131.1 million reduction to the OppenheimerFunds acquisition-related liability and $100.0 million in insurance recovery received related to the matter. (See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, - Note 20, "Commitments and Contingencies," for additional details). The benefit was partially offset by $21.9 million of compensation-related expenses and $22.7 million of non-compensation expenses primarily related to the OppenheimerFunds acquisition.
Restructuring costs were $120.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 (year ended December 31, 2020: $147.8 million). Restructuring costs related to the strategic evaluation were $100.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 (year ended December 31, 2020: $119.0 million) and are primarily composed of severance and other personnel-related charges (see Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, - Note 14, "Restructuring," for additional details).

Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Income, Operating Margin and Adjusted Operating Margin
Operating income increased by $867.8 million (94.3%) to $1,788.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2021 (year ended December 31, 2020: $920.4 million). Operating margin (operating income divided by operating revenues), increased to 25.9% in the year ended December 31, 2021 from 15.0% in the year ended December 31, 2020. Adjusted operating income increased by $518.1 million (31.1%) to $2,182.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2021 from $1,664.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2020. Adjusted operating margin increased to 41.5% in the year ended December 31, 2021 from 37.0% in the year ended December 31, 2020.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates increased by $79.6 million (109.5%) to $152.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2021 (year ended December 31, 2020: $72.7 million). The increase is primarily driven by increases of $50.3 million in our joint venture investment in Invesco Great Wall due to increased revenues as discussed above, $17.2 million in private equity investments and $9.0 million in real estate investments.
Interest expense
Interest expense decreased by $34.6 million (26.8%) to $94.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2021 (year ended December 31, 2020: $129.3 million). The decrease is primarily driven by the settlement of the forward contracts in the second quarter of 2021.
Other gains and losses, net
Other gains and losses, net was a gain of $120.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to a net gain of $44.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2020. Included in the 2021 gain were $55.0 million of gains resulting from certain private equity funds that are in liquidation, $31.1 million of gains on investments and instruments held for our deferred compensation plans, $27.0 million of net gains related to the mark-to-market on seed money investments and $10.1 million of gains on acquisition-related contingent consideration liabilities, partially offset by $7.1 million of investment losses. See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, - Note 16, "Other Gains and Losses, Net," for additional information.
Other income/(expense) of CIP
In the year ended December 31, 2021, interest and dividend income of CIP decreased by $22.6 million (7.5%) to $279.7 million (year ended December 31, 2020: $302.3 million). Interest expense of CIP decreased by $33.8 million (17.4%) to $160.7 million (year ended December 31, 2020: $194.5 million). The decrease in interest income and interest expense of CIP is primarily due to less net interest income for CLOs in 2021.
46
Table of Contents
Included in other gains/(losses) of CIP, net, are realized and unrealized gains and losses on the underlying investments and debt of CIP. In the year ended December 31, 2021, other gains and losses of CIP were a net gain of $390.0 million, as compared to a net gain of $32.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2020. The net gain during 2021 was attributable to market-driven gains of investments held by consolidated funds.
Net impact of CIP and related noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities
The net impact to net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. in each period primarily represents the changes in the value of the company's holding in its consolidated CLOs, which is reclassified into other gains/(losses) from accumulated other comprehensive income upon consolidation. The consolidation of investment products during the year ended December 31, 2021 resulted in no net change in net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. (year ended December 31, 2020: $9.4 million net increase).
Noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities represent the profit or loss amounts attributed to third party investors in CIP. The impact of any gains or losses resulting from valuation changes in the investments of non-CLO CIP attributable to the interests of third parties are offset by resulting changes in gains and losses attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities and therefore do not have a material effect on the financial condition, operating results (including earnings per common share), liquidity or capital resources of the company's common shareholders. Similarly, any gains or losses resulting from valuation changes in the investments of CLOs attributable to the interests of third parties are offset by the calculated value of the notes issued by the CLOs (offsetting in other gains/(losses) of CIP) and therefore also do not have a material effect on the financial condition, operating results (including earnings per common share), liquidity or capital resources of the company's common shareholders.
Additionally, CIP represent less than 1% of the company's AUM. Therefore, the net gains or losses of CIP are not indicative of the performance of the company's aggregate AUM.
Income Before Taxes
Total income before taxes includes income/losses of CIP; however, the company's operating revenues earned from CIP are not included in operating revenues under U.S. GAAP, as such operating revenues are eliminated upon consolidation. Therefore, Foreign operating revenues in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 19, "Geographic Information," in which CIP has been eliminated, may not correlate.
Total U.S. income before taxes increased $1,243.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2021 to $2,089.5 million from $845.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 and includes U.S. income of CIP of $283.0 million (December 31, 2020: $40.1 million). U.S. income from CIP increased $242.9 million (605.7%) from 2020 primarily due to the impact of gains on consolidated partnerships. Excluding CIP, U.S. income before taxes in 2021 increased $1,000.8 million (124.2%) from December 31, 2020 due to a larger increase in U.S. operating revenues than operating expenses.
Total Foreign income before taxes increased $187.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2021 to $411.0 million from $223.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2020 and includes foreign income of CIP of $56.6 million (December 31, 2020: foreign income of CIP of $15.2 million). Foreign income from CIP increased $41.4 million (272.4%) from 2020 primarily due to greater net gains on consolidated retail products. Excluding CIP, foreign income increased by $146.3 million (70.3%) from 2020 due to a larger increase in foreign operating revenues and other income than operating expenses.
Income Tax Expense
Our effective tax rate decreased to 21.2% for the year ended December 31, 2021 from 24.5% for the year ended December 31, 2020 primarily due to the increase in income from non-controlling interests in consolidated entities and an increase in the favorable adjustment for common share-based compensation. For additional income tax information, refer to Note 17, "Taxation," in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

Schedule of Non-GAAP Information
We utilize the following non-GAAP performance measures: net revenue (and by calculation, net revenue yield on AUM), adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. and adjusted diluted earnings per common share (EPS). The company believes the adjusted measures provide valuable insight into the company’s ongoing operational performance and assist in comparisons to its competitors. These measures also assist the company’s management with the establishment of operational budgets and forecasts and assist the Board of Directors and management of the company in determining incentive compensation decisions. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures are operating revenues (and by calculation, gross revenue yield on AUM), operating income, operating margin, net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. and diluted EPS. Each of these measures is discussed more fully below.
The following are reconciliations of operating revenues, operating income (and by calculation, operating margin) and net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. (and by calculation, diluted EPS) on a U.S. GAAP basis to a non-GAAP basis of net revenues, adjusted operating income (and by calculation, adjusted operating margin) and adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. (and by calculation, adjusted diluted EPS). These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as substitutes for any U.S. GAAP measures and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Additional reconciling items may be added in the future to these non-GAAP measures if deemed appropriate. The tax effects related to the reconciling items have been calculated based on the tax rate attributable to the jurisdiction to which the transaction relates. Notes to the reconciliations follow the tables.

____________
* Operating margin is equal to operating income divided by operating revenues.
** Adjusted operating margin is equal to adjusted operating income divided by net revenues.
*** Adjusted diluted EPS is equal to adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. divided by the weighted average number of common and restricted common shares outstanding. There is no difference between the calculated earnings per common share amounts presented above and the calculated earnings per common share amounts under the two class method.
(1) Invesco Great Wall
Management reflects 100% of Invesco Great Wall in its net revenues and adjusted operating expenses. The company’s non-GAAP operating results reflect the economics of these holdings on a basis consistent with the underlying AUM and flows. Adjusted net income is reduced by the amount of earnings attributable to non-controlling interests.
(2) Revenue Adjustments
Management believes that adjustments to investment management fees, service and distribution fees and other revenues from operating revenues appropriately reflect these revenues as being passed through to external parties who perform functions on behalf of, and distribute, the company’s managed funds. Further, these adjustments vary by geography due to the differences in distribution channels. The net revenue presentation assists in identifying the revenue contribution generated by the business, removing distortions caused by the differing distribution channel fees and allowing for a fair comparison with U.S. peer investment managers and within Invesco’s own investment units. Additionally, management evaluates net revenue yield on AUM, which is equal to net revenues divided by average AUM during the reporting period. This financial measure is an indicator of the basis point net revenues we receive for each dollar of AUM we manage and is useful when evaluating the company’s performance relative to industry competitors and within the company for capital allocation purposes.
Investment management fees are adjusted by renewal commissions and certain administrative fees. Service and distribution fees are primarily adjusted by distribution fees passed through to broker dealers for certain share classes and pass through fund-related costs. Other is primarily adjusted by transaction fees passed through to third parties. While the terms used for these types of adjustments vary by geography, they are all costs that are driven by the value of AUM and the revenue earned by Invesco from AUM. Since the company has been deemed to be the principal in the third-party arrangements, the company must reflect these revenues and expenses gross under U.S. GAAP on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

(3) CIP
See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 21, “Consolidated Investment Products,” for a detailed analysis of the impact to the company’s Consolidated Financial Statements from the consolidation of CIP. The reconciling items add back the management and performance fees earned by Invesco from the consolidated products and remove the revenues and expenses recorded by the consolidated products that have been included in the U.S. GAAP Consolidated Statements of Income.
Management believes that the consolidation of investment products may impact a reader's analysis of our underlying results of operations and could result in investor confusion or the production of information about the company by analysts or external credit rating agencies that is not reflective of the underlying results of operations and financial condition of the company. Accordingly, management believes that it is appropriate to adjust operating revenues, operating income and net income for the impact of CIP in calculating the respective net revenues, adjusted operating income and adjusted net income.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, management fees earned from CIP that were eliminated upon consolidation were $42.4 million (2020: $39.8 million; 2019: $33.5 million). There were no performance fees earned from CIP that were eliminated upon consolidation during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, 2019.
(4) Transaction, integration and restructuring related adjustments
The transaction, integration and restructuring charges reflect legal, regulatory, advisory, valuation and other professional services or consulting fees, and travel costs related to a business combination transaction or restructuring initiatives related to changes in the scope of the business, or manner in which the business is conducted. Also included in these charges are severance-related expenses and any contract termination costs associated with these efforts. Additionally, these charges reflect the costs of temporary staff involved in executing the transaction or initiative, including incremental costs associated with achieving synergy savings following a business combination or restructuring initiative.
Management believes it is useful to investors and other users of our Consolidated Financial Statements to adjust for the transaction, integration and restructuring charges in arriving at adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin and adjusted diluted EPS, as this will aid comparability of our results period to period, and aid comparability with peer companies that may not have similar acquisition and restructuring related charges. See "Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020 -- Transaction, Integration and Restructuring" for additional details.
(5) Amortization of intangible assets
In prior periods, amortization of intangible assets was included in the transaction, integration and restructuring line item. Beginning in 2021, amortization of intangible assets is presented on a separate line item. There is no impact on operating expenses, operating income or net income.
Management believes it is useful to investors and other users of our financial statements to remove amortization expense related to acquired assets and to reflect the tax benefit realized on the tax amortization of goodwill, finite-lived intangibles and indefinite-lived intangible assets in arriving at adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin and adjusted diluted EPS, as this will aid comparability of our results period to period, and aid comparability with peer companies that may not have similar acquisition-related charges.

(6) Market movement on deferred compensation plan liabilities
Certain deferred compensation plan awards are linked to the appreciation (depreciation) of specified investments, typically managed by the company. Invesco hedges economically the exposure to market movements by holding these investments on its balance sheet and through total return swap financial instruments. U.S. GAAP requires the appreciation (depreciation) in the compensation liability to be expensed over the award vesting period in proportion to the vested amount of the award as part of compensation expense. The full value of the investment and financial instrument appreciation (depreciation) are immediately recorded below operating income in other gains and losses. This creates a timing difference between the recognition of the compensation expense and the investment gain or loss impacting net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. and diluted EPS which will reverse over the life of the award and net to zero at the end of the multi-year vesting period. During periods of high market volatility, these timing differences impact compensation expense, operating income and operating margin in a manner which, over the life of the award, will ultimately be offset by gains and losses recorded below operating income on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The non-GAAP measures exclude the mismatch created by differing U.S. GAAP treatments of the market movement on the liability and the investments.
Since these plans are hedged economically, management believes it is useful to reflect the offset ultimately achieved from hedging the investment market exposure in the calculation of adjusted operating income (and by calculation, adjusted operating margin) and adjusted net income (and by calculation, adjusted diluted EPS), to produce results that will be more comparable period to period. The related fund shares or swaps will have been purchased on or around the date of grant, eliminating any ultimate cash impact from market movements that occur over the vesting period.
Additionally, dividend income from investments held to hedge economically deferred compensation plans is recorded as dividend income and as compensation expense on the company’s Consolidated Statements of Income on the record dates. This dividend income is passed through to the employee participants in the plan and is not retained by the company. The non-GAAP measures exclude this dividend income and related compensation expense.

(7) Other reconciling items
Each of these other reconciling items has been adjusted from U.S. GAAP to arrive at the company's non-GAAP financial measures for the reasons either outlined in the paragraphs above, due to the unique character and magnitude of the reconciling item, or because the item represents a continuation of a reconciling item adjusted from U.S. GAAP in a prior period.

____________
(a)The company recorded a charge of $105.3 million in the second quarter of 2020 due to a previously disclosed S&P 500 equal weight funds rebalancing correction. Due to the unique character and magnitude of this item, it has been adjusted from U.S. GAAP to arrive at the company's non-GAAP financial measures.
(b)Included within other gains and losses, net for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, is the mark-to-market of foreign exchange put option contracts intended to provide protection against the impact of a significant decline in the Pound Sterling/U.S. Dollar. The Pound Sterling contracts provided coverage through June 30, 2020. The adjustment from U.S. GAAP to non-GAAP earnings removes the impact of market volatility; therefore, the company's non-GAAP results include only the amortization of the cost of the contracts during the contract period.
(c)Adjustment represents the change in the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities for the acquired investment management contracts from Deutsche Bank and the company's digital wealth acquisitions made in 2019.
(d)The income tax provision for the year ended December 31, 2020 includes a tax benefit of $9.0 million resulting from the reversal of an unrecognized tax benefit due to the expiration of the statute of limitations. This benefit has been removed from the company’s non-GAAP results to be consistent with the exclusion of the original provision in a prior period.
(e)2021 included a net non-cash income tax expense of $23.1 million related to the remeasurement of certain deferred tax assets and liabilities due to income tax rate changes (2020: $0.7 million net benefit).

Investments
As of December 31, 2021, we had $926.3 million in investments (December 31, 2020: $826.8 million). Included in investments are $109.4 million of seed money investments in affiliated funds used to seed funds as we launch new products, and $226.6 million of investments related to assets held for deferred compensation plans, which are also held primarily in affiliated funds. Seed investments decreased by a net $44.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2021. The decrease in the period was related to redemptions of $232.2 million, partially offset by purchases of $133.4 million, a non-cash increase of $27.6 million due to the deconsolidation of certain CIP in the period (restoring the company's formerly eliminated investment balances) and $27.1 million of market valuation changes and foreign exchange movement. Investments related to deferred compensation awards increased by a net $23.9 million during the period due to purchases of $22.6 million and $2.8 million of market valuation changes and foreign exchange movements, partially offset by dispositions of $1.5 million.
Included in investments are $550.1 million in equity method investments in Invesco Great Wall and in certain of the company’s private equity partnerships, real estate partnerships and other co-investments (December 31, 2020: $426.1 million). The increase of $124.0 million in equity method investments was driven by $152.2 million in current period earnings and partnership contributions of $76.8 million. This increase was partially offset by $44.9 million related to capital distributions from partnership investments, $38.8 million related to a dividend from Invesco Great Wall, $11.8 million in investment losses, partially offset by foreign exchange movements, and $9.5 million related to distributions from partnership investments. Also included in investments are foreign time deposits of $30.4 million, an increase of $0.5 million from the December 31, 2020 balance of $29.9 million.
As of December 31, 2021, the company had $856.7 million in seed capital and co-investments (December 31, 2020: $810.4 million), including direct investments in consolidated investment products. Total seed capital and co-investments is presented as a helpful measure for investors and represents our net investment interest including our net interest in CIP, net of deferred compensation investments, joint ventures and other investments. The following table reconciles the investment balance to the total seed capital and co-investment balance.

(2) Included in the total seed and co-investment balance as of December 31, 2021 is $304.7 million of seed capital and $552.0 million of co-investments (December 31, 2020: $353.0 million of seed capital and $457.4 million of co-investments).
Assets held for policyholders and policyholder payables
One of our subsidiaries, Invesco Pensions Limited, is an insurance company that was established to facilitate retirement savings plans in the UK. The entity holds assets that are managed for its clients on its balance sheet with an equal and offsetting liability. The decrease in the balance of these accounts from $7,582.1 million at December 31, 2020 to $1,893.6 million at December 31, 2021, resulted from net business outflows of $5,752.7 million and negative foreign exchange rate movements of $72.9 million, partially offset by positive market movements of $137.1 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our capital structure, together with available cash balances, cash flows generated from operations, existing capacity under our credit facility and further capital market activities, if necessary, should provide us with sufficient resources to meet present and future cash needs, including operating, debt and other obligations as they come due and anticipated future capital requirements.
Material changes in the company's capital structure over the last two years include:
2021: We remain highly focused on our capital management and believe we are making solid progress in our efforts to build financial flexibility. Our credit facility balance was zero as of December 31, 2021, consistent with our commitment to improve our leverage profile. We fully settled our remaining share repurchase forward contracts liability of $309 million in the first half of 2021, and we renegotiated our $1.5 billion credit facility, extending the maturity date to April 26, 2026.
As a result of our progress, the Board approved a 10% increase in our dividend to $0.17 per share in the second quarter of 2021. We remain committed to a sustainable dividend policy and to returning capital to shareholders longer term through a combination of modestly increasing dividends and share repurchases. As the company continued to focus on increasing financial strength and building liquidity, the company did not repurchase any of its shares in the open market during 2021. An aggregate of 2.7 million common shares were withheld in the amount of $60.9 million related to tax withholding requirements on employee share vestings during the year ended December 31, 2021.
On January 25, 2022, the company announced its intention to repurchase up to $200 million in common stock in the first quarter of 2022, subject to market conditions. As of December 31, 2021, approximately $732.2 million remained authorized under the company's common share repurchase authorization approved by the Board on July 22, 2016.
2020: In an effort to maintain financial flexibility and maintain capital strength, the company reduced our common dividend to $0.155 per common share beginning with the dividend paid in the second quarter of 2020. Also, as part of the redemption plan announced on April 23, 2020, the company redeemed $232 million of seed capital investments from certain of our investment products as of December 31, 2020.
The company did not repurchase any of its shares in the open market during 2020. An aggregate of 3.4 million common shares were withheld in the amount of $47.1 million related to tax withholding requirements on employee share vestings during the year ended December 31, 2020.
In regard to its previously completed forward contracts, the company prepaid $191 million against the forward payable, resulting in a remaining forward contract liability of $309 million as of December 31, 2020.
As of December 31, 2020, the balance on the $1.5 billion capacity credit facility was zero.
In the ordinary course of business, Invesco enters into contracts or purchase obligations with third parties whereby the third parties provide services to or on behalf of Invesco. Purchase obligations represent fixed-price contracts, which are either non-cancelable or cancellable with a penalty. As of December 31, 2021, the company's purchase obligations totaled $619.7 million (December 31, 2020: $874.3 million) and primarily reflect standard service contracts for portfolio, market data, office-related services and third-party marketing and promotional services. Purchase obligations are recorded as liabilities in the company's Consolidated Financial Statements when services are provided.
Capital Management
Our capital management priorities have evolved with the growth and success of our business and include, in no particular order of priority: reinvestment in the business, maintaining a strong balance sheet and returning capital to our investors through share repurchases and moderate growth of dividends.
Our capital management process is executed in a manner consistent with our desire to maintain strong, investment grade credit ratings. As of the date of our filing, Invesco held credit ratings of A3/Stable, BBB+/Stable and A-/Stable from Moody's Investor Services (Moody's), Standard & Poor's Ratings Service (S&P), and Fitch Ratings (Fitch), respectively. Our ability to continue to access the capital markets in a timely manner depends on several factors, including our credit ratings, the condition of the global economy including the impact of COVID-19, investors’ willingness to purchase our securities, interest rates, credit spreads and the valuation levels of equity markets. If we are unable to access capital markets in a timely manner, our business could be adversely impacted.

Other Items
Certain of our subsidiaries are required to maintain minimum levels of capital. Such requirements may change from time-to-time as additional guidance is released based on a variety of factors, including balance sheet composition, assessment of risk exposures and governance, and review from regulators. These and other similar provisions of applicable laws and regulations may have the effect of limiting withdrawals of capital, repayment of intercompany loans and payment of dividends by such entities. Our financial condition or liquidity could be adversely affected if certain of our subsidiaries are unable to distribute funds to us.
All of our regulated EU and UK subsidiaries are subject to consolidated capital requirements under applicable EU and UK requirements, and we maintain capital within this European sub-group to satisfy these regulations. We meet these requirements in part by holding cash and cash equivalents. This retained cash can be used for general business purposes in the European sub-group in the countries where it is located. Due to the capital restrictions, the ability to transfer cash between certain jurisdictions may be limited. In addition, transfers of cash between international jurisdictions may have adverse tax consequences. We are in compliance with all regulatory minimum net capital requirements. As of December 31, 2021, the company's minimum regulatory capital requirement was $724.9 million (December 31, 2020: $763.6 million); the decrease was driven by a reduction in net capital requirements in the UK as a result of lower expenses and AUM levels, as well as the weakening of the Pound Sterling against the U.S. Dollar. The total amount of non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents was $1,088.3 million at December 31, 2021 (December 31, 2020: $1,034.8 million).
The consolidation of $9,825.8 million and $7,336.1 million of total assets and debt of CIP as of December 31, 2021, respectively, did not impact the company’s liquidity and capital resources. The majority of CIP balances related to consolidated CLOs. The collateral assets of the CLOs are held solely to satisfy the obligations of the CLOs. The company has no right to the benefits from, nor does it bear the risks associated with, the collateral assets held by the CLOs, beyond the company’s direct investments in, and management and performance fees generated from these products, which are eliminated upon consolidation. If the company were to liquidate, the collateral assets would not be available to the general creditors of the company, and as a result, the company does not consider them to be company assets. Likewise, if the CLOs were to liquidate, their investors would have no recourse to the general credit of the company. The company therefore does not consider this debt to be an obligation of the company. See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 21, “Consolidated Investment Products,” for additional details.

Cash Flows Discussion
The ability to consistently generate cash flow from operations in excess of dividend payments, common share repurchases, capital expenditures and ongoing operating expenses is one of our company's fundamental financial strengths. Operations continue to be financed from current earnings and borrowings. Our principal uses of cash, other than for operating expenses, include, in no particular order of priority: reinvestment in the business, maintaining a strong balance sheet and returning capital to our investors through share repurchases and moderate growth of dividends.
The following table represents a reconciliation of the cash flow information presented on a U.S. GAAP basis to the cash flow information, excluding the impact of the cash flows of Consolidated Investment Products for the reasons outlined in footnote 1 to the table:

(1) These tables include non-GAAP presentations. Cash held by CIP is not available for use by Invesco. Additionally, there is no recourse to Invesco for CIP debt. The cash flows of CIP do not form part of the company’s cash flow management processes, nor do they form part of the company’s significant liquidity evaluations and decisions. Policyholder assets and liabilities are equal and offsetting and have no impact on Invesco’s shareholder’s equity. The impact of cash inflows/outflows from policyholder assets and liabilities are reflected within cash flows from operating activities as changes in receivables and/or payables, as applicable.
(2) Restricted cash of $129.2 million as of December 31, 2020 is recorded in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. There was no restricted cash as of December 31, 2021 or 2019.
Operating Activities
Operating cash flows include the receipt of investment management and other fees generated from AUM, offset by operating expenses and changes in operating assets and liabilities. Although some receipts and payments are seasonal, particularly bonus payments which are paid out during the first quarter, in general, after allowing for the change in cash held by CIP, and investment activities, our operating cash flows move in the same direction as our operating income.
During 2021, cash provided by operating activities was $1,078.1 million compared to $1,230.3 million provided during 2020 (a decrease of $152.2 million). As shown in the tables above, the impact of CIP to operating activities was $436.1 million of cash used during 2021 compared to $72.7 million of cash used during 2020. Excluding the impact of CIP, cash provided by operations was $1,514.2 million during 2021 compared to $1,303.0 million of cash provided by operations during 2020. Cash inflows for the year ended December 31, 2021, excluding the impact of CIP, included an $867.8 million increase in operating income, net investment redemptions of $62.1 million, including seed money and deferred compensation investments (2020: net investment redemptions of $293.8 million) and an Invesco Great Wall dividend of $38.8 million (2020: $27.6 million). Inflows were partially offset by net outflows from the changes in payables and receivables due to the timing of payments and receipts.

Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $847.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 (2020: net cash used in $859.6 million). As shown in the tables above, the impact of CIP on investing activities, including investment purchases, sales and returns of capital, was $755.4 million used (2020: $729.9 million used). Excluding the impact of CIP cash flows, net cash used in investing activities was $92.5 million (2020: net cash used of $129.7 million).
Cash outflows for the year ended December 31, 2021, excluding the impact of CIP, includes a net inflow of $16.3 million, which is comprised of collected proceeds of $227.0 million from sales and returns of capital of investments (year ended December 31, 2020: $185.6 million), partially offset by purchases of investments of $210.7 million (year ended December 31, 2020: $200.3 million).
During the year ended December 31, 2021, the company had capital expenditures of $108.8 million (2020: $115.0 million). Our capital expenditures related principally in each period to technology initiatives, including enhancements to platforms from which we maintain our portfolio management systems and client-facing systems including websites and client reporting tools, upgrades in computer hardware and software desktop and laptop products for employees, and improvements in the firm’s data solutions. Also, in each period, a portion of these costs related to leasehold improvements made to the various buildings and workspaces used in our offices. These projects have been funded with proceeds from our operating cash flows. In 2020, our capital expenditures also included remaining technology integrations related to the OppenheimerFunds acquisition.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $117.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 (2020: cash used of $285.9 million). As shown in the tables above, the impact of CIP on financing activities provided cash of $1,148 million during the year (2020: cash provided of $426.3 million). Excluding the impact of CIP, financing activities used cash of $1,030.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2021 (2020: cash used of $712.2 million).
Financing cash outflows during the year ended December 31, 2021 included the $309.4 million settlement of the
forward contracts (2020: $190.6 million), $104.1 million of net collateral on the forward contracts returned to the counterparty (2020: $142.0 million net collateral received), $307.7 million of common dividend payments for dividends declared in January, April, July and October 2021 (year ended December 31, 2020: dividends paid of $357.4 million), $236.8 million of preferred dividend payments for dividends declared in January, April, July and October 2021 (year ended December 31, 2020: $236.8 million), the payment of $60.9 million to meet employees' withholding tax obligations on common share vestings (2020: $47.1 million) and a payment of $11.8 million of contingent consideration (year ended December 31, 2020: $22.3 million). The credit facility had no net borrowing during the year ended December 31, 2021 (2020: no net borrowing).
Dividends
When declared, Invesco pays dividends on a quarterly basis in arrears. Holders of our preferred shares are eligible to receive dividends at an annual rate of 5.9% of the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, or $59 per share per annum. The preferred stock dividend is payable quarterly on a non-cumulative basis when, if and as declared by our board of directors. However, if we have not declared and paid or set aside for payment full quarterly dividends on the preferred stock for a particular dividend period, we may not declare or pay dividends on, or redeem, purchase or acquire, our common stock or other junior securities in the next succeeding dividend period. In addition, if we have not declared and paid or set aside for payment quarterly dividends on the preferred stock for six quarterly periods, whether or not consecutive, the number of directors of the company will be increased by two and the holders of the preferred shares shall have the right to elect such two additional members of the Board of Directors.
On January 25, 2022 the company declared a fourth quarter 2021 dividend of $0.17 per common share to the holders of common shares, payable on March 2, 2022, to shareholders of record at the close of business on February 16, 2022 with an ex-dividend date of February 15, 2022.
On January 25, 2022, the company announced a preferred dividend of $14.75 per preferred share to the holders of preferred shares, representing the period from December 1, 2021 through February 28, 2022, payable on March 1, 2022, to shareholders of record at the close of business on February 15, 2022.

Table of Contents
The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will be declared by our board of directors and will depend upon, among other factors, our earnings, financial condition and capital requirements at the time such declaration and payment are considered. The board has a policy of managing dividends in a prudent fashion, with due consideration given to profit levels, overall debt levels and historical dividend payouts.
Common Share Repurchase Plan
The company did not purchase any of its shares in the open market during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, the company fully settled our remaining share repurchase forward contracts liability of $309 million. See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data Note 10, “Share Capital,” for details of these forward contracts.
On January 25, 2022, the company announced its intention to repurchase up to $200 million in common stock in the first quarter of 2022, subject to market conditions. At December 31, 2021, approximately $732.2 million remained authorized under the company's common share repurchase authorization approved by the Board on July 22, 2016 (December 31, 2020: $732.2 million).
Debt
The carrying value of our debt at December 31, 2021 was $2,085.1 million (December 31, 2020: $2,082.6 million) and was comprised of the following:

(1)On April 26, 2021, Invesco Ltd. and its indirect subsidiary, Invesco Finance PLC, amended and restated the $1.5 billion floating rate credit facility, extending the expiration date from August 11, 2022 to April 26, 2026.
For the year ended December 31, 2021, the company's weighted average cost of debt was 3.95% (year ended December 31, 2020: 3.77%).
Financial covenants under the credit facility agreement include: (i) the quarterly maintenance of an adjusted debt/EBITDA leverage ratio, as defined in the credit facility agreement, of not greater than 3.25:1.00, (ii) an interest coverage ratio (EBITDA, as defined in the credit facility agreement/interest payable for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ended before the date of determination) of not less than 4.00:1.00. As of December 31, 2021, we were in compliance with our financial covenants. At December 31, 2021, our leverage ratio was 0.79:1.00 (December 31, 2020: 1.37:1.00), and our interest coverage ratio was 25.21:1.00 (December 31, 2020: 11.83:1.00).

(1)Adjustments for unrealized gains and losses from investments, as defined in our credit facility, may also include non-cash gains and losses on investments to the extent that they do not represent anticipated future cash receipts or expenditures.
(2)Unusual or otherwise non-recurring gains and losses, as defined in our credit facility, are adjusted for in the determination of EBITDA. The benefit to expense related to the change in the OppenheimerFunds acquisition related liability and the related insurance recovery are considered unusual and have been deducted in the determination of EBITDA.
(3)EBITDA and Adjusted debt are non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management in connection with certain debt covenant calculations under our credit facility agreement. The calculation of EBITDA above (a reconciliation from net income attributable to Invesco Ltd.) is defined by our credit facility agreement, and therefore net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. is the most appropriate GAAP measure from which to reconcile to EBITDA. The calculation of Adjusted debt is defined in our credit facility and equals debt of $2,085.1 million plus $3.0 million in letters of credit less $200 million of excess unrestricted cash (cash and cash equivalents less the minimum regulatory capital requirement, not to exceed $200 million).
The discussion that follows identifies risks associated with the company's liquidity and capital resources. The Item 1. Business -- Risk Management section contains a broader discussion of the company's overall approach to risk management.
Credit and Liquidity Risk
Capital management involves the management of the company's liquidity and cash flows. The company manages its capital by reviewing annual and projected cash flow forecasts and by monitoring credit, liquidity and market risks, such as interest rate and foreign currency risks (as discussed in Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk”), through measurement and analysis. The company is primarily exposed to credit risk through its cash and cash equivalent deposits, which are held by external firms. The company invests its cash balances in its own institutional money market products, as well as with external high credit-quality financial institutions. These arrangements create exposure to concentrations of credit risk.
60
Table of Contents
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to meet an obligation. All cash and cash equivalent balances are subject to credit risk, as they represent deposits made by the company with external banks and other institutions. As of December 31, 2021, our maximum exposure to credit risk related to our cash and cash equivalent balances is $1,896.4 million. See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 3, "Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities" for information regarding cash and cash equivalents invested in affiliated money market funds.
The company does not utilize credit derivatives or similar instruments to mitigate the maximum exposure to credit risk. The company does not expect any counterparties to its financial instruments to fail to meet their obligations.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities as the same become due. The company is exposed to liquidity risk through its $2,085.1 million in total debt. The company actively manages liquidity risk by preparing cash flow forecasts for future periods, reviewing them regularly with senior management, maintaining a committed credit facility, scheduling significant gaps between major debt maturities and engaging external financing sources in regular dialogue.
Effects of Inflation
Inflation can impact our organization primarily in two ways. First, inflationary pressures can result in increases in our cost structure, especially to the extent that large expense components such as compensation are impacted. To the degree that these expense increases are not recoverable or cannot be counterbalanced through pricing increases due to the competitive environment, our profitability could be negatively impacted. Secondly, the value of the assets that we manage may be negatively impacted when inflationary expectations result in a rising interest rate environment. Declines in the values of these AUM could lead to reduced revenues as management fees are generally calculated based upon the size of AUM.
Off Balance Sheet Commitments
See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 20, “Commitments and Contingencies,” for more information regarding undrawn capital commitments.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 1, “Accounting Policies." Critical accounting policies and estimates are those that require complex management judgment regarding matters that are highly uncertain at the time policies were applied and estimates were made. Different estimates reasonably could have been used in the current period that would have had a material effect on these Consolidated Financial Statements, and changes in these estimates are likely to occur from period-to-period in the future. The discussion below provides information on the significant judgments and assumptions applied in each area and should be read in conjunction with the significant accounting policies footnote previously referenced.
Goodwill
Our goodwill impairment testing conducted during 2021 and 2020 indicated that the fair value of the reporting unit more likely than not exceeded its carrying value. During our annual impairment test in 2021 and 2020, management performed the optional qualitative approach which indicated that a quantitative assessment of the goodwill impairment test was not necessary. Due to the decline in our assets under management resulting from COVID-19, management also performed a quantitative goodwill impairment test in the first quarter of 2020, which indicated no impairment. The company cannot predict the occurrence of future events that might adversely affect the reported value of goodwill that totaled $8,882.5 million and $8,916.3 million at December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Such events include, but are not limited to, strategic decisions made in response to economic and competitive conditions, the impact of the economic environment on the company's AUM or any other material negative change in AUM and related effective fee rates.
61
Table of Contents
When management utilizes the option to first assess goodwill impairment on a qualitative basis, the sum of certain events and circumstances is assessed to determine if it is not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Such events and circumstances include macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall financial performance of the company and or significant changes in share price. If the qualitative assessment indicates that an impairment may be likely or management elected to not perform the qualitative assessment, management performs a quantitative test to determine the fair value of the reporting unit. The fair value of the reporting unit is generally determined using an income approach where estimated future cash flows are discounted to arrive at a single present value amount. The income approach includes inputs that require significant management judgment, including AUM growth rates, projected effective fee rates, pre-tax profit margins, effective tax rates and discount rates.
The quantitative test includes assumptions updated for current market conditions, including the company's updated forecasts for changes in AUM due to market gains or losses and net long-term flows and the corresponding changes in revenue and expenses. Market gains are based upon historical returns of the S&P 500 index, treasury bond returns and treasury bill returns, as applicable to the company's AUM mix on the testing date. The most sensitive of these assumptions are the AUM growth rate, fee rates, operating expense and the discount rate to determine present value. The discount rates used are estimates of the weighted average cost of capital for the investment management sector reflecting the overall industry risks associated with future cash flows and have been calculated consistently from period to period. While the company believes all assumptions utilized in our assessment are reasonable and appropriate, changes in these estimates could produce different fair value amounts and therefore different goodwill impairment assessments.
Intangible Assets
Where evidence exists that the underlying arrangements have a high likelihood of continued renewal at little or no cost to the company, the intangible asset is assigned an indefinite life and reviewed for impairment on an annual basis. Similar to Goodwill, management has the option to first assess indefinite-lived intangible assets for qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test. Definite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable (i.e., the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the intangible asset). In addition, management's judgment is required to estimate the period over which definite-lived intangible assets will contribute to the company's cash flows and the pattern in which these assets will be consumed. A change in the remaining useful life of any of these assets, or the reclassification of an indefinite-lived intangible asset to a definite-lived intangible asset, could have a significant impact on the company's amortization expense, which was $62.9 million, $62.5 million and $52.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment annually as of October 1 or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. If a quantitative assessment is required, the impairment test consists of a comparison of the fair value of an intangible asset with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. If required, fair value is generally determined using an income approach where estimated future cash flows are discounted to arrive at a single present value amount. The income approach includes inputs that require significant management judgment, including AUM growth rates, product mix, projected effective fee rates, pre-tax profit margins, effective tax rates and discount rates. The most sensitive of these assumptions to the determination of the estimated fair value are the AUM growth rate, fee rates, operating expense and discount rate, which is a weighted average cost of capital including consideration of company size premiums. Changes in these estimates could produce different fair value amounts and therefore different impairment conclusions. During 2021 and 2020, our annual impairment reviews of indefinite-lived intangible assets determined that no impairment existed at the respective review dates, the classifications of indefinite-lived and definite-lived remain appropriate, and no changes to the expected lives of the definite-lived intangible assets were required. Due to the decline in our AUM resulting from COVID-19, management also performed a quantitative impairment test on certain indefinite-lived intangible assets in the first quarter of 2020, which indicated no impairment.
Income Taxes
The company files U.S. federal, state and numerous foreign income tax returns. The income tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations by the taxpayer and the relevant taxing authorities. Significant judgment is required in the determination of our annual income tax provision, which includes the assessment of deferred tax assets and uncertain tax positions, as well as the interpretation and application of existing and newly enacted tax laws, regulation changes and new judicial rulings. Therefore, it is possible that actual results will vary from those recognized in our Consolidated Financial Statements due to changes in the interpretation of applicable guidance or as a result of examinations by taxing authorities.
62
Table of Contents
Deferred tax assets, net of any associated valuation allowance, have been recognized based on management's belief that taxable income of the appropriate character, more likely than not, will be sufficient to realize the benefits of these assets over time. In the event that actual results differ from our expectations, or if our historical trends of positive operating income changes, we may be required to record a valuation allowance on some or all of these deferred tax assets, which may have a significant effect on our financial condition and results of operations. In assessing whether a valuation allowance should be established against a deferred income tax asset, the company considers all available evidence, which includes the nature, frequency and severity of recent losses, forecasts of future profitability and the duration of statutory carry back and carry forward periods, among other factors.
In the assessment of uncertain tax positions, significant judgment is required to estimate the range of possible outcomes and determine the probability, on a more likely than not basis, of favorable or unfavorable outcomes upon ultimate settlement of an issue. Changes in estimate of uncertain tax positions occur periodically due to changes in interpretations of tax laws, the status of examinations by tax authorities and new regulatory or judicial guidance that could impact the relative merits and risk of tax positions. These changes, when they occur, impact tax expense and can materially impact results of operations. The company recognizes any interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits on the Consolidated Statements of Income as components of income tax expense.
CIP
Assessing if an entity is a variable interest entity (VIE) or voting interest entity (VOE) involves judgment and analysis on a structure-by-structure basis. Factors assessed as part of the analysis include the legal organization of the entity, the company's contractual involvement with the entity and any related party or de facto agent implications of the company's involvement with the entity. A VIE, in the context of the company and its managed funds, is a fund that does not have sufficient equity to finance its operations without additional subordinated financial support, or a fund for which the risks and rewards of ownership are not directly linked to voting interests. If the company is deemed to have the power to direct the activities of the fund that most significantly impact the fund's economic performance, and the obligation to absorb losses/right to receive benefits from the fund that could potentially be significant to the fund, then the company is deemed to be the fund's primary beneficiary and is required to consolidate the fund. Assessing if the company has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the fund’s economic results may involve significant judgment.
As of December 31, 2021, the company consolidated CIP that held investments of $9,042.5 million (December 31, 2020: $7,910.0 million).
