FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

SEI REPORTS THIRD-QUARTER 2010 FINANCIAL RESULTS

OAKS, Pa., October 20, 2010 — SEI Investments Company (NASDAQ:SEIC) today announced financial results for third-quarter 2010, reporting an increase in net income attributable to SEI and diluted earnings per share compared to third-quarter 2009. Diluted earnings per share were $0.30. 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 $3.7 million or two percent compared to third-quarter 2009 (see Proforma Consolidated Overview below).

Longer term, we believe we are well positioned in all business segments to achieve growth. We continue to make key investments that will create growth opportunities for us and for our clients.”

Third-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 third-quarter 2009 include $60.2 million from LSV. Excluding these revenues, revenues in third-quarter 2010 increased $3.7 million or two percent compared to third-quarter 2009. This increase was primarily due to higher average asset balances under management and administration from existing clients because of improved capital markets.

 

   

Stock-based compensation costs in third-quarter 2010 reflect the reversal of $6.3 million of previously recognized stock-based compensation costs and the acceleration of $3.1 million of stock-based compensation costs due to a change in management’s estimates of the attainment of certain performance vesting targets. The net effect of these two items was a reduction of $3.2 million of stock-based compensation costs in third-quarter 2010.

 

   

Third-quarter 2010 includes $2.1 million in costs associated with operational errors, of which, approximately $1.0 million is recognized in the Investment Advisors segment and $900K is recognized in the Investments in New Businesses segment. Also, third-quarter 2009 includes $2.2 million in costs associated with operational errors which was recognized in the Institutional Investors segment.

 

   

The third-quarter 2010 net income attributable to SEI and diluted earnings per share results include gains of $8.7 million associated with SIVs, whereas results in third-quarter 2009 included gains of $14.9 million. Additional information pertaining to SIVs is contained in SEI’s 2009 Form 10-K filed February 25, 2010.

 

   

Assets under management increased by $15.1 billion during the third-quarter 2010 to $164.0 billion at September 30, 2010, as compared to $148.9 billion at June 30, 2010, primarily due to market driven appreciation.

 

   

In the third-quarter 2010, SEI purchased 1,989,000 shares of its common stock for $38.6 million.
