Key Factors & Estimates for Q2

Last year’s stock market rally continued in the April-June quarter, with the S&P 500 Index rising more than 4%, indicating a favorable equity-market performance. However, the fixed income could not catch up with the equity market trend. The Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index remained flat from the prior quarter. Hence, the June-end quarter’s performances of asset managers are expected to have been positively impacted by decent equity market returns, offset by a weak fixed-income market.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for average AUM is pegged at $362.2 million, indicating a 5.9% increase on a sequential basis. 

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for management fees is pegged at $474.9 million, indicating a rise of 3.4% on a sequential basis. 

The consensus estimate for the shareowner servicing fee of $59.5 million indicates a 4% increase from the prior quarter’s actual. 

Coming to expenses, Janus Henderson is likely to have experienced elevated costs due to increased employee compensation and benefits, along with increased investment in technological development to align with changing customer needs.
