LSV Asset Management
The Company has an investment in LSV Asset Management (LSV), a registered investment advisor that provides investment advisory services primarily to institutions, including pension plans and investment companies. LSV is currently an investment sub-advisor for a limited number of SEI-sponsored investment products. The Company's partnership interest in LSV as of March 31, 2026 was 38.5%. The Company’s interest in the net assets of LSV is included in Investments on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and its interest in the earnings of LSV is reflected in Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliate on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company accounts for its interest in LSV using the equity method because of its less than 50% ownership. The Company’s interest in the earnings of LSV is reflected in Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s total investment in LSV was $54,879 and $121,512, respectively. The Company's investment includes advances provided to LSV related to their working capital accounts. The Company receives partnership distributions from LSV on a quarterly basis. The Company received partnership distributions from LSV of $33,886 and $34,860 in the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. As such, the Company considers these distribution payments as returns on investment rather than returns of the Company's original investment in LSV and has therefore classified the associated cash inflows as an operating activity on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
The Company’s proportionate share in the earnings of LSV was $32,092 and $28,747 during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

On April 1, 2026, LSV provided an interest in the partnership to select key employees which reduced the ownership percentage of each existing partner on a pro-rata basis. As a result, the Company's total partnership interest in LSV was reduced slightly to approximately 38.4% from approximately 38.5%.
