 the value of the assets we manage and, in certain cases, may include a performance-based fee. Our revenue fluctuates with changes in the total value of our assets under management, which may occur as a result of market appreciation and depreciation, contributions to or withdrawals from investor accounts and distributions. This revenue is recognized over the period that the assets are managed.

Macroeconomic Environment

During the second quarter of 2025, global markets remained subject to ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty and heightened geopolitical tensions. Central banks in major economies continued to evaluate the trade-off between persistent inflationary pressures and signs of moderating economic growth, contributing to evolving expectations regarding the future path of interest rates. These dynamics contributed to elevated market volatility and shifting investor sentiment, impacting asset flows across regions and sectors.

Despite these challenges, we maintained our disciplined approach, leveraging our portfolio management expertise and robust risk management framework. We believe our continued focus on prudent cost control and operational efficiency positions us to navigate this complex environment and adapt to evolving market conditions.

Recently Enacted Tax Legislation

On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law the legislation formally titled “An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Title II of H. Con. Res. 14” (the Act), which became effective during the third quarter of fiscal year 2025. We are currently evaluating the impact of the Act; however, we do not expect the legislation to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Investment Performance at June 30, 2025

_________________________

(1)    Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Outperformance is determined by comparing the annualized investment performance of each investment strategy to the performance of specified reference benchmarks. Investment performance in excess of the performance of the benchmark is considered outperformance. The investment performance calculation of each investment strategy is based on all active accounts and investment models pursuing similar investment objectives. For accounts, actual investment performance is measured gross of fees and net of withholding taxes. For investment models, for which actual investment performance does not exist, the investment performance of a composite of accounts pursuing comparable investment objectives is used as a proxy for actual investment performance. The performance of the specified reference benchmark for each account and investment model is measured net of withholding taxes, where applicable. This is not investment advice and may not be construed as sales or marketing material for any financial product or service sponsored or provided by Cohen & Steers.
