Terry Forbes
CFO at Westwood Holdings Group
Our second quarter income of $1,000,000 or $0.12 per share compared favorably to last year's second quarter loss of $2,200,000 or $0.27 per share due to changes in the fair value of contingent consideration in 2024, offset by an increase in income tax expense in 2025. Economic earnings for the quarter were $2,800,000 or $0.32 per share, compared with an economic loss of $500,000 or $06 per share in the 2024. Firm wide assets under management and advisement totaled $18,300,000,000 at quarter end, consisting of assets under management of $17,300,000,000 and assets under advisement of $900,000,000 Assets under management consisted of institutional assets of $9,200,000,000 or 53 percent of the total, wealth management assets of $4,200,000,000 or 24% of the total, and mutual fund assets of $3,900,000,000 or 23% of the total.
