OAKS, Pa., Jan. 26, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- SEI Investments Company (Nasdaq: SEIC) today announced financial results for fourth-quarter 2010, reporting an increase in net income attributable to SEI and diluted earnings per share compared to fourth-quarter 2009. Diluted earnings per share were $0.33. Effective January 1, 2010, company results reflect the deconsolidation of LSV Asset Management (LSV), returning to the equity method of accounting. This change in accounting treatment had no impact on net income attributable to SEI. Without LSV, revenues grew $9.9 million or four percent compared to fourth-quarter 2009 (see Proforma Consolidated Overview below).

Fourth-Quarter Business Commentary:
- In January 2010, LSV was deconsolidated due to the adoption of newly issued accounting guidance. Our ownership interest in LSV was unchanged and our proportionate share in the earnings of LSV is reflected in "Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliate" on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. The deconsolidation of LSV had no impact on net income attributable to SEI or diluted earnings per share.
- Revenues in fourth-quarter 2009 include $62.5 million from LSV. Excluding these revenues, revenues in fourth-quarter 2010 increased $9.9 million or four percent compared to fourth-quarter 2009. This increase was primarily due to higher average asset balances under management and administration from existing clients because of improved capital markets.
- The fourth-quarter 2010 net income attributable to SEI and diluted earnings per share results include gains of $14.3 million associated with SIVs, whereas results in fourth-quarter 2009 included losses of $4.0 million. Additional information pertaining to SIVs is contained in SEI's 2009 Form 10-K filed February 25, 2010.
- Stock-based compensation costs in fourth-quarter 2010 include $7.8 million associated with stock options that vested during the fourth-quarter 2010. Included in this amount is $3.6 million due to the acceleration of stock-based compensation costs resulting from a change in management's estimates determined in third-quarter 2010 of the attainment of certain performance vesting targets.
- Assets under management increased by $8.3 billion during the fourth-quarter 2010 to $172.3 billion at December 31, 2010, as compared to $164.0 billion at September 30, 2010, primarily due to market driven appreciation.
- The tax rate in the fourth-quarter 2010 decreased to 34.7 percent mainly due to a year-to-date adjustment to reflect the reinstatement of the research and development tax credit.
- In fourth-quarter 2010, SEI recognized $3.1 million in gains due to the sale of its entire ownership interest in a small company that was involved in a merger. This gain, together with the SIV gain, is reflected in Net gain (loss) on investments on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
- The fourth-quarter 2009 results include $7.7 million of amortization expense associated with a change in the useful life of previously capitalized software development costs for some components related to the Global Wealth Platform (GWP). This charge was due to the replacement of these components with components contained in the release of GWP that occurred in fourth-quarter 2009. The bulk of this expense was recognized in the Private Banks segment ($5 million) and the Investment Advisors segment ($1.9 million).
- In the fourth-quarter 2010, SEI purchased 1,405,000 shares of its common stock for $32.7 million.
