Invesco Ltd.
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Corporate Information
Invesco Ltd. (Parent) and all of its consolidated entities (collectively, the company or Invesco) provide retail and institutional clients with an array of global investment management capabilities. The company operates globally, and its sole business is investment management.
Certain disclosures included in the company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (annual report or Form 10-K) are not required to be included on an interim basis in the company’s quarterly reports on Forms 10-Q (Report). The company has condensed or omitted these disclosures. Therefore, this Report should be read in conjunction with the company’s annual report.
Basis of Accounting and Consolidation
The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and with rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and consolidate the financial statements of the Parent and all of its controlled subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which are necessary for the fair statement of the financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented. All significant intercompany transactions, balances, revenues and expenses are eliminated upon consolidation. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation.
Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted
Income Taxes. On January 1, 2021, the company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2019-12, “Simplifying Accounting for Income Taxes” (ASU 2019-12). The update simplifies various aspects related to income taxes and removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The company has adopted ASU 2019-12 using a prospective approach and determined that there is no material impact upon adoption of this standard.
Pending Accounting Pronouncements

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the company recognized foreign currency gains and losses of $3.6 million and $4.3 million, respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2020: losses and gains of $5.8 million and $3.6 million, respectively) resulting from the net investment hedge within currency translation differences on investments in foreign subsidiaries in Other comprehensive income.
7. REVENUE

16
Money Market Fee Waivers
The company is currently providing voluntary yield support waivers of its revenues on certain money market funds to ensure that they maintain a minimum level of daily net investment income. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, yield support waivers resulted in a reduction of total gross operating revenues of $40.8 million and $111.2 million, respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2020: $12.4 million and $23.1 million, respectively). A significant portion of our money market AUM arises from the institutional distribution channel, where relationships with our distribution partners allow us to share the waiver impact. Gross waivers are partially offset by a reduction of payments to these intermediaries, which are included in third party distribution, service and advisory expenses.
8. COMMON SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
The company recognized total expenses of $106.0 million and $138.2 million related to equity-settled common share-based payment transactions in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Movements on common share awards during the periods ended September 30, are detailed below:

The weighted average grant date fair value of the common share awards that were granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $22.61 (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $14.08).
At September 30, 2021, there was $196.6 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested common share awards; that cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.29 years.
9. RESTRUCTURING
In 2020, the company initiated a strategic evaluation focusing on four key areas of our expense base: our organizational model, our real estate footprint, management of third party spend and technology and operations efficiency.
Restructuring expenses related to the strategic evaluation were $17.9 million and $68.0 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 (three and nine months ended September 30, 2020: $15.3 million). Restructuring expenses are recorded to transaction, integration and restructuring expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
The company estimates $60 million to $85 million of remaining restructuring expenses related to the strategic evaluation through the end of 2022, of which approximately 40% will be employee compensation costs with the remainder comprised of property, office and technology costs and general and administrative costs. A substantial portion of these expenses will result in future cash expenditures.
The following table shows the rollforward of the restructuring liability and the total restructuring charges as of and for the period ending September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The company recorded the liability to accrued compensation and benefits and accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

There were no common shares of performance-vested awards excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per common share during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, due to their inclusion being anti-dilutive (three and nine months ended September 30, 2020: 0.3 million). There were no common shares of time-vested awards excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per common share during three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 (three and nine months ended September 30, 2020: none).

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Commitments and contingencies may arise in the ordinary course of business.
The company has committed to co-invest in certain investment products, which may be called in future periods. At September 30, 2021, the company’s undrawn co-invest capital commitments were $457.5 million (December 31, 2020: $453.5 million).
Certain of our managed investment products have entered into revolving credit facilities with financial institutions. Pursuant to these arrangements, the company provided equity commitments and guarantees to certain of these investment products that are temporary in nature. The revolving credit facilities look first to the respective investment products for repayment and servicing. The company’s equity commitment or guarantee would only be called in the event a particular investment product is unable to meet its obligation. The company believes the likelihood of being required to fund its equity commitments or guarantees under these arrangements to be remote. To date, the company has not been required to fund any equity commitments under these arrangements. The maximum amount of future payments under the commitments is $115 million and under the guarantees is $30 million. The fair value of the guarantee liability is not significant to the consolidated financial statements.
The Parent and various company subsidiaries have entered into agreements with financial institutions to guarantee certain obligations of other company subsidiaries. The company would be required to perform under these guarantees in the event of certain defaults. The company has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.
Pursuant to an agreement entered into at the consummation of the acquisition of OppenheimerFunds, MassMutual, as the holder of seed capital investments in certain funds and accounts included in the acquisition, has the right to redeem its seed capital investments in accordance with an agreed upon schedule. In the event MassMutual exercises its redemption rights and the applicable fund or account is unable to meet such redemption (for example, due to illiquid investments or the need to maintain a level of investment in the fund), the company would be required to fund such redemption to MassMutual and seek reimbursement from the applicable fund or account at a later time when the fund or account is able to fulfill a redemption request. At September 30, 2021, the total amount of remaining seed capital subject to this agreement is approximately $53.6 million. Since December 31, 2020, MassMutual exercised its redemption rights and redeemed a portion of the seed capital per the agreed upon schedule. The company does not anticipate having to fund any material seed capital redemptions subject to this agreement.
Legal Contingencies
The company is from time to time involved in pending or threatened litigation relating to claims arising in the ordinary course of its business. The nature and progression of litigation can make it difficult to predict the impact a particular lawsuit or claim will have on the company. There are many reasons that the company cannot make these assessments, including, among others, one or more of the following: the proceeding is in its early stages (or merely threatened); the damages sought are unspecified, unsupportable, unexplained or uncertain; the claimant is seeking relief other than compensatory damages; the matter presents novel legal claims or other meaningful legal uncertainties; discovery has not started or is not complete; there are significant facts in dispute; and there are other parties who may share in any ultimate liability.
In assessing the impact that a legal or regulatory matter will have on the company, management evaluates the need for an accrual on a case-by-case basis. If the likelihood of a loss is deemed probable and is reasonably estimable, the estimated loss is accrued. If the likelihood of a loss is assessed as less than probable, or an amount or range of loss cannot be reasonably estimated, a loss is not accrued. In management’s opinion, adequate accrual has been made as of September 30, 2021 to provide for any such losses that may arise from matters for which the company could reasonably estimate an amount. Management is of the opinion that the ultimate resolution of such claims will not materially affect the company’s business, financial position, results of operation or liquidity. Furthermore, in management’s opinion, it is not possible to estimate a range of reasonably possible losses with respect to other litigation contingencies.
The investment management industry also is subject to extensive levels of ongoing regulatory oversight and examination. In the United States, United Kingdom and other jurisdictions in which the company operates, governmental authorities regularly make inquiries, hold investigations and administer market conduct examinations with respect to the company’s compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Additional lawsuits or regulatory enforcement actions arising out of these inquiries may in the future be filed against the company and related entities and individuals in the United States, United Kingdom and other jurisdictions in which the company and its affiliates operate. Any material loss of investor and/or client confidence as a result of
19
such inquiries and/or litigation could result in a significant decline in AUM, which would have an adverse effect on the company’s future financial results and its ability to grow its business.
OppenheimerFunds acquisition-related matter
As previously disclosed by the company, in the fourth quarter of 2019, the company identified an accounting matter which required a restatement of the historical financial statements for the following funds: (1) the Invesco Steelpath MLP Income Fund; (2) the Invesco Steelpath MLP Select 40 Fund; (3) the Invesco Steelpath MLP Alpha Fund; and (4) the Invesco Steelpath MLP Alpha Plus Fund (each a Fund and together the Funds).
Remediation payments will be made to certain shareholders of the Funds negatively impacted by the restatement described above. Remediating these matters has, will or may produce the following costs:
•Costs of processing the restated historical financial statements, and related costs of communicating with present and former Fund shareholders;
•Costs of reimbursing shareholders for transactions in Fund shares made at incorrect NAVs; and
•Certain additional costs in connection with these matters.
The company expects to bear all or at least some portion of these and other remediation costs. Uncertainties remain as of the date of this report regarding the degree to which the company will ultimately be financially responsible for bearing such costs. The sources of such uncertainties include, among other things, the following:
•The company and/or the Funds may be entitled to seek reimbursement for a portion of such costs under applicable insurance policies (subject to the terms of such policies, including applicable deductibles and policy limits).
•The company acquired sponsorship and management of the Funds as part of its acquisition of OppenheimerFunds. The company may be entitled to seek indemnification for certain of such costs from MassMutual under the OppenheimerFunds acquisition agreement (subject to the terms of such indemnification, including the specified deductible and limit).
The company has substantially completed the process of obtaining fund shareholder information from certain omnibus accounts. Based on this information, we have reduced our estimated liability to $254.3 million (year ended December 31, 2020: $387.8 million), which resulted in a benefit to transaction, integration and restructuring expense of $45.7 million and $131.1 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. The estimated liability excludes any amounts that may be recovered through indemnification and insurance recoveries, as well as other remediation costs related to the matter, such as legal and consulting costs, or the costs of communicating with fund shareholders.
The original estimate was based primarily on assumptions around the activity of the underlying fund shareholders in the omnibus accounts. Our analysis of the patterns of actual underlying fund shareholder activity has resulted in a decrease to the estimated liability during the three months ended September 30, 2021. We expect fund shareholder reimbursement payments to be made in the fourth quarter of 2021.
The measurement period for this acquisition closed during the three months ended June 30, 2020; therefore, the adjustments made during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as well as any further adjustments to the estimate, including any recoveries from insurance or indemnification, are and will be recorded through earnings in transaction, integration and restructuring expense. Remediation costs of $0.9 million and $4.2 million, respectively, have been incurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 (year ended December 31, 2020: $11.6 million) and recorded as transaction, integration and restructuring expense.

The collateral assets held by consolidated CLOs are primarily invested in senior secured bank loans, bonds and equity securities. Bank loan investments of $7,225.4 million, which comprise the majority of consolidated CLO portfolio collateral, are senior secured corporate loans from a variety of industries, including but not limited to the aerospace and defense, broadcasting, technology, utilities, household products, healthcare, oil and gas and finance industries. Bank loan investments mature at various dates between 2022 and 2029, pay interest at LIBOR plus a spread of up to 12.0% and typically range in S&P credit rating categories from BBB down to unrated. Approximately less than 0.62% of the collateral assets were in default as of September 30, 2021 and 2020. Interest income on bank loans and bonds is recognized based on the unpaid principal balance and stated interest rate of these investments on an accrual basis. At September 30, 2021, the unpaid principal balance exceeds the fair value of the senior secured bank loans and bonds by approximately $84.0 million (December 31, 2020: the unpaid principal balance exceeded the fair value of the senior secured bank loans and bonds by approximately $208.6 million). These investments are accounted for on a one-month lag based on the availability of fund financial information, which means the third quarter fair value reflects a valuation as of August 31, 2021. CLO investments are valued based on price quotations provided by third-party pricing sources. These third-party sources aggregate indicative price quotations to provide the company with a price for the CLO investments.
23
Notes issued by consolidated CLOs mature at various dates between 2030 and 2034 and have a weighted average maturity of 10.72 years. The notes are issued in various tranches with different risk profiles. The interest rates are generally variable rates based on LIBOR plus a pre-defined spread, which varies from 0.40% for the more senior tranches to 8.51% for the more subordinated tranches. The investors in this debt are not affiliated with the company and have no recourse to the general credit of the company for this debt.
The table below summarizes as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the nature of investments that are valued using the NAV as a practical expedient and any related liquidation restrictions or other factors which may impact the ultimate value realized. These investments are valued on a three-month lag based on the availability of fund financial information.

13. RELATED PARTIES
As a result of the OppenheimerFunds acquisition, MassMutual has an approximate 16.4% stake in the common stock of the company and owns all of the outstanding $4.0 billion in perpetual, non-cumulative preferred shares. Based on the level of shares owned by MassMutual and the corresponding customary minority shareholder rights, which includes representation on Invesco’s board of directors, the company considers MassMutual a related party.
Additionally, certain managed funds are deemed to be affiliated entities under the related party definition in ASC 850, “Related Party Disclosures.” Related parties include those defined in the company’s proxy statement.

The company’s financial results are impacted by the fluctuations in exchange rates against the U.S. Dollar, as discussed in the “Results of Operations” section below.
Our revenues are directly influenced by the level and composition of our AUM. As a significant proportion of our AUM is based outside of the U.S., changes in foreign exchange rates result in a change to the mix of U.S. Dollar denominated AUM with AUM denominated in other currencies. As fee rates differ across geographic locations, changes to exchange rates have an
26
impact on the net revenue yields. Changes in our AUM mix also significantly impact our net revenue yield. Passive AUM generally earn a lower effective fee rate than active asset classes, and changes in the mix of products therefore have an impact on our net revenue yield. At the industry level, investors continue to shift towards passive products and away from active, and Invesco is able to participate in this trend due to the breadth, strength and diversified nature of our business. Therefore, movements in global capital market levels, net new business inflows (or outflows) and changes in the mix of investment products between asset classes and geographies may materially affect our revenues from period to period.
Invesco benefits from our long-term efforts to ensure a diversified base of AUM. One of Invesco's core strengths, and a key differentiator for the company within the industry, is our broad diversification across client domiciles, asset classes and distribution channels. Our geographic diversification recognizes growth opportunities in different parts of the world. This broad diversification mitigates the impact on Invesco of different market cycles and enables the company to take advantage of growth opportunities in various markets and channels.
Update on significant events and transactions
As previously disclosed, we are undertaking a strategic evaluation of our business focusing on four key areas of our expense base: our organizational model, our real estate footprint, management of third party spend and technology and operations efficiency. Through this evaluation, we have invested and will continue to invest in key areas of growth aligned with our strategic plan, including ETFs, Fixed Income, China, Solutions, Alternatives and Global Equities, which has had a positive impact on the results for the quarter. This helped us achieve five straight quarters of net long-term inflows across a variety of products.
While investing in key areas of growth, we plan to create permanent annual net operating expense improvements of $200 million. A significant element of the savings will be generated from realigning our workforce to support key areas of growth as well as repositioning some of our workforce to lower cost locations. We expect to modestly exceed our cumulative 2021 targeted savings of $150 million. In 2021 to date, we realized $118 million in annualized savings, which when combined with the $30 million in annualized savings realized in 2020, results in $148 million, or 74%, of our $200 million net savings expectation. Remaining restructuring costs related to the strategic evaluation are estimated to be in a range of $60 million to $85 million through the end of 2022, with $187 million incurred since we began the strategic evaluation.
We remain highly focused on our capital management and believe we are making solid progress in our efforts to build financial flexibility. Our revolver balance was zero as of September 30, 2021, consistent with our commitment to improve our leverage profile. We remain committed to a sustainable dividend policy and to returning capital to shareholders longer term through a combination of modestly increasing dividends and share repurchases.
In April 2021, we announced plans to transition to State Street’s Alpha platform, an asset servicing platform that will integrate front, middle and back office investment services. The migration to Alpha is expected to simplify Invesco’s investment infrastructure to improve scale, reduce risk and improve operating efficiency, allowing Invesco to create a global operating model that will standardize and streamline its investment operations. The integration began in the second quarter of 2021, with completion in 2024.
On May 24, 2019, the company completed the acquisition of OppenheimerFunds, an investment management subsidiary of MassMutual. As part of the acquisition, the company acquired the management contracts of the SteelPath-branded MLP funds and became the Adviser to the funds. In 2019, the company identified an accounting matter related to the funds’ financial statements and in 2020 concluded that it was probable that the company would incur at least some costs associated with the matter. The company has substantially completed the process of obtaining investor information from certain omnibus accounts. Based on the information that is currently available, we have reduced our estimated liability to $254.3 million, which resulted in a benefit to expense of $131.1 million recorded in transaction, integration and restructuring expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The estimated liability excludes any amounts that may be recovered through indemnification and insurance recoveries, as well as other remediation costs related to the matter, such as legal and consulting costs, or the costs of communicating with fund shareholders. We expect fund shareholder reimbursement payments to be made in the fourth quarter of 2021. See Note 11, "Commitments and Contingencies," for additional details regarding the accounting matter.

Managing our business and meeting client needs through COVID-19
Invesco is committed to helping our employees, our clients and our communities navigate the challenges presented by the continued impacts of COVID-19. The primary focus of our efforts is to ensure the health and safety of our employees while preserving our ability to serve clients and manage assets in a highly dynamic market environment. As always, we are committed to helping our clients achieve their investment objectives through disciplined long-term investing. To this end, we continue to proactively engage with our clients, primarily virtually, to help them better navigate market uncertainty by providing thought leadership and other value-added services.
Our portfolio managers, research analysts and traders are also successfully working remotely or in secure locations with access to all systems necessary to do their jobs and an ability to connect with their teams in managing client assets. Additionally, our operational, control and support teams are primarily working in a remote environment. In light of the remote working environment, we continue to assess and enhance our business continuity plans as well as our internal controls with appropriate adjustments made to address the environment.
Looking ahead, we will balance our employees’ desire for increased flexibility with the needs of our clients and our business as we define our approach to transitioning to “new normal” ways of working in a post-COVID-19 world. The vast majority of employees will be working in their assigned office location at least part of the time and will either be working in-office, working remotely or working in a hybrid of these two models. Decisions regarding office location and flexibility are supported by internal research focused on the needs of our employees and clients. This overall, thoughtful and coordinated approach helps ensure our ability to continue to meet the needs of our clients as well as our employees.
Other External Factors Impacting Invesco
Investment exposure to the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR)-based interest rates could impact our client portfolios. The UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), which regulates LIBOR, noted in a March 5, 2021 announcement that December 31, 2021 will be the cessation date for all tenors of GBP LIBOR, JPY LIBOR, CHF LIBOR and 1-week & 2-month tenors of USD LIBOR. The FCA also set June 30, 2023 as the cessation date for the other five tenors (overnight, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and 12-month) of USD LIBOR. Additionally, this FCA announcement constitutes an index cessation event under the International Swaps and Derivatives Association Inc.’s (ISDA) IBOR Fallbacks Supplement and the ISDA 2020 IBOR Fallbacks Protocol, as well as the Alternative Reference Rate Committee’s fallback language for non-consumer cash products, giving the market clarity on the spread adjustments to alternative reference rate-based fallbacks for all EUR, CHF, GBP, JPY and USD LIBOR settings.
Invesco, similar to the broader industry, is transitioning away from LIBOR to alternative risk-free rates according to regulator and working group defined timelines and guidance. Invesco continues to actively monitor and adjust the LIBOR transition strategy and timeline as necessary. The discontinuance of LIBOR may adversely affect the amount of interest or other amounts payable or receivable on certain portfolio investments. These changes may also impact the market liquidity and market value of these portfolio investments. Invesco continues to reassess exposure in relation to funds holding LIBOR-based instruments and funds utilizing LIBOR as a benchmark and/or performance target and remediate as necessary. Invesco continues to monitor overall industry transition progress and completes ongoing analysis of the suitability of alternative risk-free rates in executing Invesco’s LIBOR transition plan.
Presentation of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Impact of Consolidated Investment Products
The company provides investment management services to, and has transactions with, various retail mutual funds and similar entities, private equity, real estate, fund-of-funds, collateralized loan obligation products (CLOs) and other investment entities sponsored by the company for the investment of client assets in the normal course of business. The company serves as the investment manager, making day-to-day investment decisions concerning the assets of the products. Investment products that are consolidated are referred to in this Form 10-Q (Report) as consolidated investment products (CIP). The company’s economic risk with respect to each investment in CIP is limited to its equity ownership and any uncollected management and performance fees. See also Note 12, "Consolidated Investment Products", for additional information regarding the impact of the consolidation of managed funds.
The majority of the company’s CIP balances are CLO-related. The collateral assets of the CLOs are held solely to satisfy the obligations of the CLOs. The company has no right to the benefits from, nor does it bear the risks associated with, the collateral assets held by the CLOs, beyond the company’s direct investments in, and management and performance fees generated from,
28
the CLOs. If the company were to liquidate, the collateral assets would not be available to the general creditors of the company, and as a result, the company does not consider them to be company assets. Likewise, the investors in the CLOs have no recourse to the general credit of the company for the notes issued by the CLOs. The company therefore does not consider this debt to be a company liability.
The impact of CIP is so significant to the presentation of the company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements that the company has elected to deconsolidate these products in its non-GAAP disclosures among other adjustments. See Schedule of Non-GAAP Information for additional information regarding these adjustments. The following discussion therefore combines the results presented under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) with the company’s non-GAAP presentation. This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains four distinct sections, which follow the AUM discussion:
•Results of Operations (three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to three and nine months ended September 30, 2020);
•Schedule of Non-GAAP Information;
•Balance Sheet Discussion; and
•Liquidity and Capital Resources.
Wherever a non-GAAP measure is referenced, a disclosure will follow in the narrative or in the note referring the reader to the Schedule of Non-GAAP Information, where additional details regarding the use of the non-GAAP measure by the company are disclosed, along with reconciliations of the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures to the non-GAAP measures. To further enhance the readability of the Results of Operations section, separate tables for each of the revenue, expense and other income and expenses (non-operating income/expense) sections of the income statement introduce the narrative that follows, providing a section-by-section review of the company’s income statements for the periods presented.

(1)Net revenues is a non-GAAP financial measure. Net revenues are operating revenues plus the net revenues of our Great Wall joint venture; less pass-through revenue adjustments to investment management fees, service and distribution fees and other; plus management and performance fees earned from CIP. See "Schedule of Non-GAAP Information" for the reconciliation of operating revenues to net revenues.
(2)Adjusted operating income and adjusted operating margin are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted operating margin is adjusted operating income divided by net revenues. Adjusted operating income includes operating income plus the net operating income of our joint venture investments, the operating income impact of the consolidation of investment products, transaction, integration and restructuring adjustments, adjustments for amortization of intangibles, compensation expense related to market valuation changes in deferred compensation plans and other reconciling items. See "Schedule of Non-GAAP Information," for the reconciliation of operating income to adjusted operating income.
(3)Adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. and adjusted diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. is net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. adjusted to exclude the net income of CIP, transaction, integration and restructuring adjustments, adjustments for amortization of intangibles, adjustments for the tax benefits resulting from tax amortization of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, the net income impact of deferred compensation plans and other reconciling items. Adjustments made to net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. are tax-affected in arriving at adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. By calculation, adjusted diluted EPS is adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (for diluted EPS). See "Schedule of Non-GAAP Information," for the reconciliation of net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. to adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd.

(1) Excludes passive products, closed-end funds, private equity limited partnerships, non-discretionary funds, unit investment trusts, fund of funds with component funds managed by Invesco, stable value building block funds and CDOs. Certain funds and products were excluded from the analysis because of limited benchmark or peer group data. Had these been available, results may have been different. These results are preliminary and subject to revision.
Data as of September 30, 2021. AUM measured in the one, three, five and ten year quartile rankings represents 50%, 49%, 48% and 43% of total Invesco AUM, respectively, and AUM measured versus benchmark on a one, three, five and ten year basis represents 61%, 59%, 57% and 52% of total Invesco AUM. Peer group rankings are sourced from a widely-used third party ranking agency in each fund’s market (e.g., Morningstar, IA, Lipper, eVestment, Mercer, Galaxy, SITCA, Value Research) and asset-weighted in USD. Rankings are as of prior quarter-end for most institutional products and prior month-end for Australian retail funds due to their late release by third parties. Rankings are calculated against all funds in each peer group. Rankings for the primary share class of the most representative fund in each composite are applied to all products within each composite. Performance assumes the reinvestment of dividends. Past performance is not indicative of future results and may not reflect an investor’s experience.
(2) Numbers in parenthesis reflect AUM for each investment product (see Note above for exclusions) as a percentage of the total AUM for the 5 year peer group ($730.4 billion).

Assets Under Management movements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared with the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020
The following presentation and discussion of AUM includes Passive and Active AUM. Passive AUM includes index-based ETFs, unit investment trusts (UITs), non-management fee earning AUM and other passive mandates. Active AUM is total AUM less Passive AUM.
Non-management fee earning AUM includes non-management fee earning ETFs, UIT and product leverage. The net flows in non-management fee earning AUM can be relatively short-term in nature and, due to the relatively low revenue yield, these can have a significant impact on overall net revenue yield.
The AUM tables and the discussion below refer to certain AUM as long-term. Long-term inflows and the underlying reasons for the movements in this line item include investments from new clients, existing clients adding new accounts/funds or contributions/subscriptions into existing accounts/funds. Long-term outflows reflect client redemptions from accounts/funds and include the return of invested capital on the maturity. We present net flows into money market funds separately because shareholders of those funds typically use them as short-term funding vehicles and because their flows are particularly sensitive to short-term interest rate movements.

(1) Gross revenue yield on AUM is equal to annualized total operating revenues divided by average AUM, excluding Invesco Great Wall AUM. The average AUM for Invesco Great Wall in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $85.5 billion and $81.1 billion (three and nine months ended September 30, 2020: $51.0 billion and $46.5 billion). It is appropriate to exclude the average AUM of Invesco Great Wall for purposes of computing gross revenue yield on AUM, because the revenues resulting from these AUM are not presented in our operating revenues. Under U.S. GAAP, our share of the net income of Invesco Great Wall Fund Management Company (“Invesco Great Wall”) is recorded as equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Gross revenue yield, the most comparable U.S. GAAP-based measure to net revenue yield, is not considered a meaningful effective fee rate measure. Additionally, the numerator of the gross revenue yield measure, operating revenues, excludes the management fees earned from CIP; however, the denominator of the measure includes the AUM of these investment products. Therefore, the gross revenue yield measure is not considered representative of the company’s effective fee rate from AUM.
(2) Net revenue yield on AUM is equal to annualized net revenues divided by average AUM. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for a reconciliation of operating revenues to net revenues.
Flows
There are numerous drivers of AUM inflows and outflows, including individual investor decisions to change investment preferences, fiduciaries and other gatekeepers making broad asset allocation decisions on behalf of their clients and reallocation of investments within portfolios. We are not a party to these asset allocation decisions, as the company does not generally have access to the underlying investor’s decision-making process, including their risk appetite or liquidity needs. Therefore, the company is not in a position to provide meaningful information regarding the drivers of inflows and outflows.
Average AUM during the three months ended September 30, 2021 were $1,540.5 billion, compared to $1,206.2 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Average AUM during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were $1,471.9 billion, compared to $1,167.1 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Market Returns
Market gains and losses include the net change in AUM resulting from changes in market values of the underlying securities from period to period. The table in the “Executive Overview” section of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis summarizes returns based on price appreciation/(depreciation) of several major market indices for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.
Foreign Exchange Rates
During the three months ended September 30, 2021, we experienced a decrease in AUM of $4.0 billion due to changes in foreign exchange rates. In the three months ended September 30, 2020, AUM increased by $7.7 billion due to foreign exchange rate changes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we experienced decreases in AUM of $6.2 billion due to changes in foreign exchange rates. In the nine months ended September 30, 2020, AUM increased by $0.4 billion due to foreign exchange rate changes.
Revenue Yield
As a significant proportion of our AUM is based outside of the U.S., changes in foreign exchange rates result in a change to the mix of U.S. Dollar denominated AUM with AUM denominated in other currencies. As fee rates differ across geographic locations, changes to exchange rates have an impact on the net revenue yields. Changes in our AUM mix also significantly impact our net revenue yield. Passive AUM generally earn a lower effective fee rate than active asset classes, and changes in the mix of products therefore have an impact on our net revenue yield. At the industry level, investors continue to shift towards passive products and away from active, and Invesco is able to participate in this trend due to the breadth, strength and diversified nature of our business.
In the three months ended September 30, 2021, net revenue yield was 34.6 basis points compared to 36.2 basis points in the three months ended September 30, 2020, a decrease of 1.6 basis points. In the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net revenue yield was 35.2 basis points compared to 37.4 basis points in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, a decrease of 2.2 basis points.
Net revenue yield has declined as a result of shifts in the AUM mix towards passive, lower-fee products. As passive products generally have lower fees than active products, the AUM shift towards passive has contributed to the declining net revenue yield. At September 30, 2021, passive AUM were $468.6 billion, representing 30.7% of total AUM at that date; whereas at September 30, 2020, passive AUM were $318.0 billion, representing 26.1% of our total AUM at that date.
Passive AUM includes our QQQ ETF, for which we do not receive a management fee but which delivers significant marketing and brand value and increases Invesco’s footprint, leadership and relevance in the ETF market. The net revenue yield on passive AUM increased as a result of the QQQ fund’s decreased percentage of passive AUM. At September 30, 2021, the QQQ fund represented $181.5 billion, or 38.7% of passive AUM. At September 30, 2020, the QQQ fund represented $134.4 billion, or 42.3% of passive AUM. In the three months ended September 30, 2021, the net revenue yield on passive AUM was 12.1 basis points compared to 11.4 basis points in the three months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of 0.7 basis points. In the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the net revenue yield on passive AUM was 12.6 basis points compared to 12.2 basis points in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of 0.4 basis points.
Also contributing to the decline in net revenue yield were the higher discretionary money market fee waivers, as mentioned in Note 7, "Revenue", which adversely impacts net revenue yield on active AUM. We also saw a greater proportion of inflows into fixed income and relatively lower fee products. These changes have decreased the net revenue yield on active AUM. At September 30, 2021, active AUM were $1,060.0 billion, representing 69.3% of total AUM at that date; whereas at September 30, 2020, active AUM were $900.2 billion, representing 73.9% of our total AUM at that date.
In the three months ended September 30, 2021, the net revenue yield on active AUM was 44.7 basis points compared to 44.8 basis points in the three months ended September 30, 2020, a decrease of 0.1 basis points. In the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the net revenue yield on active AUM was 44.6 basis points compared to 45.6 basis points in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, a decrease of 1.0 basis point.
We expect the changes adversely impacting our revenue yields described above to continue to pressure yields in the near term.

____________
(1) Total revenue adjustments includes passed through investment management, service and distribution and other revenues and equal the same amount as the third party distribution, service and advisory expenses.
(2) Net revenues are operating revenues less revenue adjustments, plus net revenues from Invesco Great Wall, plus management and performance fees earned from CIP. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional important disclosures regarding the use of net revenues.
The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased operating revenues by $15.8 million, equivalent to 0.9% of total operating revenues, during the three months ended September 30, 2021 when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020.
The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased operating revenues by $91.4 million, equivalent to 1.8% of total operating revenues, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
Additionally, our revenues are directly influenced by the level and composition of our AUM. Therefore, movements in global capital market levels, net business inflows (or outflows), changes in the mix of investment products between asset classes and geographies may materially affect our revenues from period to period.
Investment Management Fees
Investment management fees increased by $178.7 million (16.3%) in the three months ended September 30, 2021 to $1,275.5 million as compared to $1,096.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2020. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased investment management fees by $14.2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020. After allowing for foreign exchange
47
movements, investment management fees increased by $164.5 million (15.0%) as a result of a 27.7% increase in average AUM, partially offset by lower net revenue yields when compared to the 2020 period. Net revenue yield has declined as a result of shifts in the AUM mix towards passive, lower-fee products. Additionally, higher discretionary money market fee waivers adversely impacted the net revenue yield on active AUM.
Investment management fees increased by $427.3 million (12.9%) in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to $3,729.5 million as compared to $3,302.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased investment management fees by $77.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020. After allowing for foreign exchange movements, investment management fees increased by $349.6 million (10.6%) as a result of a 26.1% increase in average AUM, partially offset by lower revenue yields when compared to the 2020 period. Net revenue yield has declined as a result of shifts in the AUM mix towards passive, lower-fee products. Additionally, higher discretionary money market fee waivers adversely impacted the net revenue yield on active AUM.
See further discussion in the company’s disclosures regarding the changes in AUM and revenue yields during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 in the “Assets Under Management” section above for additional information regarding the impact of changes in AUM on management fee yields.
Service and Distribution Fees
In the three months ended September 30, 2021, service and distribution fees increased by $56.4 million (16.0%) to $409.1 million as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020 of $352.7 million. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased service and distribution fees by $1.6 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020. After allowing for foreign exchange movements, service and distribution fees increased by $54.8 million. The total increase is driven by increases in distribution fees of $26.7 million, transfer agency fees of $18.1 million and administration fees of $9.6 million. The increase is primarily driven by higher AUM to which these fees apply. The transfer agency fees increase includes $8.1 million related to a pricing structure change in our US transfer agency services, which is offset by increases in third party distribution, service and advisory expense and property, office and technology expense.
In the nine months ended September 30, 2021, service and distribution fees increased by $140.0 million (13.3%) to $1,191.2 million as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020 of $1,051.2 million. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements increased service and distribution fees by $12.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020. After allowing for foreign exchange movements, service and distribution fees increased by $127.5 million. The total increase is driven by increases in distribution fees of $68.6 million, administration fees of $26.2 million and transfer agency fees of $31.7 million. The increase is primarily driven by higher AUM to which these fees apply. The transfer agency fees increase includes $8.1 million related to a pricing structure change in our US transfer agency services, which is offset by increases in third party distribution, service and advisory expense and property, office and technology expense.
Performance Fees
Of our $1,528.6 billion in AUM at September 30, 2021, approximately $58.3 billion (3.8%) could potentially earn performance fees, including carried interests and performance fees related to partnership investments and separate accounts.
In the three months ended September 30, 2021, performance fees increased to $4.8 million from zero performance fees earned in the three months ended September 30, 2020. Performance fees during the three months ended September 30, 2021 were primarily generated from real estate products.
In the nine months ended September 30, 2021, performance fees increased by $13.7 million (165.1%) to $22.0 million when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020 of $8.3 million. Performance fees during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were primarily generated from various institutional mandates in Japan and real estate products.
Other Revenues
In the three months ended September 30, 2021, other revenues increased by $12.5 million (26.0%) to $60.6 million (three months ended September 30, 2020: $48.1 million). Foreign exchange rate movements did not impact other revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase in
48
other revenues was primarily driven by increases in front end fees of $8.2 million and real estate transaction fees of $2.6 million.
In the nine months ended September 30, 2021, other revenues increased by $34.6 million (22.5%) to $188.4 million (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $153.8 million). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 increased other revenues by $0.6 million as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The increase in other revenues was primarily driven by increases in front end fees of $25.3 million and real estate transaction fees of $6.8 million.
Invesco Great Wall
The company’s most significant joint venture arrangement is our 49% investment in Invesco Great Wall Fund Management Company Limited (Invesco Great Wall). Management believes that the revenues from Invesco Great Wall should be added to operating revenues to arrive at net revenues, as it is important to evaluate the contribution to the business that Invesco Great Wall is making. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional disclosures regarding the use of net revenues.
Management reflects 100% of Invesco Great Wall in its net revenues and adjusted operating expenses. The company’s non-GAAP operating results reflect the economics of these holdings on a basis consistent with the underlying AUM and flows. Adjusted net income is reduced by the amount of earnings attributable to non-controlling interests.
Net revenues from Invesco Great Wall were $118.7 million and average AUM was $85.5 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2021 (net revenues were $65.3 million and average AUM was $51.0 billion in the three months ended September 30, 2020). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements during the three months ended September 30, 2021 increased net revenues by $7.8 million as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020. After allowing for foreign exchange movements, net revenues from Invesco Great Wall were $110.9 million. The increase in revenue is a result of higher AUM and improved net revenue yield.
Net revenues from Invesco Great Wall were $333.6 million and average AUM was $81.1 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 (net revenues were $167.2 million and average AUM was $46.5 billion in the nine months ended September 30, 2020). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 increased net revenues by $24.9 million as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020. After allowing for foreign exchange movements, net revenues from Invesco Great Wall were $308.7 million. The increase in revenue is a result of higher AUM and improved net revenue yield.
Management, performance and other fees earned from CIP
Management believes that the consolidation of investment products may impact a reader’s analysis of our underlying results of operations and could result in investor confusion or the production of information about the company by analysts or external credit rating agencies that is not reflective of the underlying results of operations and financial condition of the company. Accordingly, management believes that it is appropriate to adjust operating revenues for the impact of CIP in calculating net revenues. As management and performance fees earned by Invesco from the consolidated products are eliminated upon consolidation of the investment products, management believes that it is appropriate to add these operating revenues back in the calculation of net revenues. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional disclosures regarding the use of net revenues.
Management and performance fees earned from CIP were $11.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 (three months ended September 30, 2020: $10.4 million).
Management and performance fees earned from CIP were $31.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $29.8 million).

Interest expense
Interest expense decreased by $10.7 million to $23.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 (three months ended September 30, 2020: $33.8 million). The decrease is primarily driven by the settlement of the forward contracts in the second quarter of 2021 and lower interest expense on the credit facility, which had a zero balance as of September 30, 2021 compared to $90.0 million as of September 30, 2020.
53
Interest expense decreased by $33.4 million to $71.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $104.9 million). The decrease is primarily driven by the settlement of the forward contracts in the second quarter of 2021 and lower interest expense from borrowings on the credit facility, which had a zero balance as of September 30, 2021 compared to $90.0 million as of September 30, 2020.
Other gains and losses, net
Other gains and losses, net was a loss of $12.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 (three months ended September 30, 2020: $31.5 million net gain). Included in the loss were $9.4 million of losses on investments and instruments held for our deferred compensation plans and $5.0 million of investment losses, partially offset by $1.7 million of net gains related to the mark-to-market on seed money investments.
Other gains and losses, net was a gain of $65.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $15.0 million net loss). Included in the gain were $35.3 million of gains on investments and instruments held for our deferred compensation plans, $25.8 million of net gains related to the mark-to-market on seed money investments and $8.1 million of gains on acquisition-related contingent consideration liabilities, partially offset by $5.3 million of investment losses.
Other income/(expense) of CIP
Other income/(expense) of CIP includes interest and dividend income, interest expense and other gains/(losses) of CIP.
In the three months ended September 30, 2021, interest and dividend income of CIP increased by $2.9 million (3.8%) to $79.2 million (three months ended September 30, 2020: $76.3 million). Interest expense of CIP decreased by $0.3 million (0.7%) to $41.5 million (three months ended September 30, 2020: $41.8 million).
In the nine months ended September 30, 2021, interest and dividend income of CIP decreased by $26.8 million (11.1%) to $214.4 million (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $241.2 million). Interest expense of CIP decreased by $30.4 million (20.1%) to $120.8 million (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $151.2 million).
Included in other gains/(losses) of CIP, net, are realized and unrealized gains and losses on the underlying investments and debt of CIP. In the three months ended September 30, 2021, other gains and losses of CIP were net gains of $162.5 million as compared to net gains of $64.7 million in the three months ended September 30, 2020. In the nine months ended September 30, 2021, other gains and losses of CIP were net gains of $323.3 million as compared to net losses of $61.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The net gains during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 were attributable to market-driven gains on investments held by consolidated funds.
Net impact of CIP and related noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities
The net impact to net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. in each period primarily represents the changes in the value of the company’s holding in its consolidated CLOs. The consolidation of investment products during the three months ended September 30, 2021 resulted in no net change in net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. (three months ended September 30, 2020: $9.6 million increase). The consolidation of investment products during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 resulted in no net change in net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $9.4 million increase). CIP are taxed at the investor level and not at the product level; therefore, there is no tax provision reflected in the net impact of CIP.
Noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities represent the profit or loss amounts attributed to third-party investors in CIP. The impact of any gains or losses resulting from valuation changes in the investments of non-CLO CIP attributable to the interests of third-parties are offset by resulting changes in gains and losses attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities and therefore do not have a material effect on the financial condition, operating results (including earnings per common share), liquidity or capital resources of the company’s common shareholders. Similarly, any gains or losses resulting from valuation changes in the investments of CLOs attributable to the interests of third-parties are offset by the calculated value of the notes issued by the CLOs (offsetting in other gains/(losses) of CIP) and therefore also do not have a material effect on the financial condition, operating results (including earnings per common share), liquidity or capital resources of the company’s common shareholders.
Additionally, CIP represent less than 1% of the company’s AUM. Therefore, the net gains or losses of CIP are not indicative of the performance of the company’s aggregate AUM.
54
Income Tax Expense
The company's subsidiaries operate in several taxing jurisdictions around the world, each with its own statutory income tax rate. As a result, the blended average statutory tax rate will vary from year to year depending on the mix of the profits and losses from each jurisdiction.
Our effective tax rate decreased to 20.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 (three months ended September 30, 2020: 23.8%). The decrease in the effective tax rate in the third quarter is primarily due to the favorable impact that the higher income attributable to non-controlling interests in consolidated investment products has on the effective tax rate, which was partially offset by an increase in the reserve for uncertain tax positions and tax expense related to the remeasurement of deferred assets and liabilities due to an increase in the US state effective tax rate.
Our effective tax rate decreased to 22.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 (nine months ended September 30, 2020: 28.8%). The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily due to a change in the mix of income and loss across taxing jurisdictions and the higher income attributable to non-controlling interests in consolidated investments products. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in the reserve for uncertain tax positions and tax expense related to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities due to the UK corporate tax rate increase and the increase in the US state effective tax rate.
55
Schedule of Non-GAAP Information
We utilize the following non-GAAP performance measures: net revenue (and by calculation, net revenue yield on AUM), adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. and adjusted diluted earnings per common share (EPS). The company believes the adjusted measures provide valuable insight into the company’s ongoing operational performance and assist in comparisons to its competitors. These measures also assist the company’s management with the establishment of operational budgets and forecasts and assist the Board of Directors and management of the company in determining incentive compensation decisions. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures are operating revenues (and by calculation, gross revenue yield on AUM), operating income, operating margin, net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. and diluted EPS. Each of these measures is discussed more fully below.
The following are reconciliations of operating revenues, operating income (and by calculation, operating margin) and net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. (and by calculation, diluted EPS) on a U.S. GAAP basis to a non-GAAP basis of net revenues, adjusted operating income (and by calculation, adjusted operating margin) and adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. (and by calculation, adjusted diluted EPS). These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as substitutes for any U.S. GAAP measures and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Additional reconciling items may be added in the future to these non-GAAP measures if deemed appropriate. The tax effects related to the reconciling items have been calculated based on the tax rate attributable to the jurisdiction to which the transaction relates. Notes to the reconciliations follow the tables.

* Operating margin is equal to operating income divided by operating revenues.
** Adjusted operating margin is equal to adjusted operating income divided by net revenues.
*** Adjusted diluted EPS is equal to adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. divided by the weighted average number of common and restricted common shares outstanding. There is no difference between the calculated EPS amounts presented above and the calculated EPS amounts under the two class method.
(1) Invesco Great Wall
Management reflects 100% of Invesco Great Wall in its net revenues and adjusted operating expenses. The company’s non-GAAP operating results reflect the economics of these holdings on a basis consistent with the underlying AUM and flows. Adjusted net income is reduced by the amount of earnings attributable to non-controlling interests.
(2) Revenue Adjustments
Management believes that adjustments to investment management fees, service and distribution fees and other revenues from operating revenues appropriately reflect these revenues as being passed through to external parties who perform functions on behalf of, and distribute, the company’s managed funds. Further, these adjustments vary by geography due to the differences in distribution channels. The net revenue presentation assists in identifying the revenue contribution generated by the business, removing distortions caused by the differing distribution channel fees and allowing for a fair comparison with U.S. peer investment managers and within Invesco’s own investment units. Additionally, management evaluates net revenue yield on AUM, which is equal to net revenues divided by average AUM during the reporting period. This financial measure is an indicator of the basis point net revenues we receive for each dollar of AUM we manage and is useful when evaluating the company’s performance relative to industry competitors and within the company for capital allocation purposes.
Investment management fees are adjusted by renewal commissions and certain administrative fees. Service and distribution fees are primarily adjusted by distribution fees passed through to broker dealers for certain share classes and pass through fund-related costs. Other is primarily adjusted by transaction fees passed through to third parties. While the terms used for these types of adjustments vary by geography, they are all costs that are driven by the value of AUM and the revenue earned by Invesco from AUM. Since the company has been deemed to be the principal in the third-party arrangements, the company must reflect these revenues and expenses gross under U.S. GAAP on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
57
(3) CIP
See Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements - Note 12, "Consolidated Investment Products", for a detailed analysis of the impact to the company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements from the consolidation of CIP. The reconciling items add back the management and performance fees earned by Invesco from the consolidated products and remove the revenues and expenses recorded by the consolidated products that have been included in the U.S. GAAP Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
Management believes that the consolidation of investment products may impact a reader’s analysis of our underlying results of operations and could result in investor confusion or the production of information about the company by analysts or external credit rating agencies that is not reflective of the underlying results of operations and financial condition of the company. Accordingly, management believes that it is appropriate to adjust operating revenues, operating income and net income for the impact of CIP in calculating the respective net revenues, adjusted operating income and adjusted net income.
(4) Transaction, integration and restructuring related adjustments
Management believes it is useful to investors and other users of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to adjust for the transaction, integration and restructuring charges in arriving at adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin and adjusted diluted EPS, as this will aid comparability of our results period to period, and aid comparability with peer companies that may not have similar acquisition and restructuring related charges. See “Results of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 -- Transaction, Integration and Restructuring” for additional details.
(5) Amortization of intangible assets
In prior periods, amortization of intangible assets was included in the transaction, integration and restructuring line item. Beginning in 2021, amortization of intangible assets is presented as its own line item. There is no impact on operating expenses, operating income or net income.
While finite-lived intangible assets are amortized under U.S. GAAP, there is no amortization charge on goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles. In certain qualifying situations, amortization can be recognized for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles for tax purposes, generally over a 15-year period, as is the case in the U.S. The tax benefit realized on the amortization is recognized as a deferred tax liability that is not reflected in the company’s earnings absent an impairment charge or the disposal of the related business, which is not anticipated in the foreseeable future.
Management believes it is useful to investors and other users of our financial statements to adjust for amortization related to acquired assets and tax benefits resulting from tax amortization of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets in arriving at adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin and adjusted diluted EPS, as this will aid comparability of our results period to period, and aid comparability with peer companies that may not have similar acquisition-related charges.
(6) Market movement on deferred compensation plan liabilities
Certain deferred compensation plan awards involve a return to the employee linked to the appreciation (depreciation) of specified investments, typically the funds managed by the employee. Invesco hedges economically the exposure to market movements.
Since these plans are hedged economically, management believes it is useful to reflect the offset ultimately achieved from hedging the investment market exposure in the calculation of adjusted operating income (and by calculation, adjusted operating margin) and adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. (and by calculation, adjusted diluted EPS), to produce results that will be more comparable period to period.

(b)The income tax provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 includes a tax benefit of $9.0 million resulting from the reversal of an uncertain tax position due to the expiration of statute of limitations. This benefit has been removed from the company’s non-GAAP results to be consistent with the exclusion of the original provision in a prior period.
(c)The three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 included a non-cash income tax expense of $6.5 million related to the remeasurement of certain intangible deferred tax liabilities due to tax rate changes. Also included in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, is a non-cash income tax expense of $17.0 million arising from the remeasurement of the UK deferred tax assets and liabilities due to the enactment of an increase in the UK corporate tax rate from 19% to 25% effective in 2023 (three and nine months ended September 30, 2020: $3.6 million).

Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents increased by $364.8 million from $1,408.4 million at December 31, 2020 to $1,773.2 million at September 30, 2021. See “Cash Flows Discussion” in the following section within this Management’s Discussion and Analysis for additional discussion regarding the movements in cash flows during the period.
60
Investments
As of September 30, 2021, we had $906.4 million in total investments (December 31, 2020: $826.8 million). Included in investments are $102.8 million of seed money investments in affiliated funds used to seed funds as we launch new products, and $218.3 million of investments related to assets held for deferred compensation plans, which are also held primarily in affiliated funds. Seed investments decreased by a net $50.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in the period was related to redemptions of $202.1 million, partially offset by purchases of $108.5 million, $25.9 million of market valuation changes and foreign exchange movements and a non-cash increase of $17.0 million due to the deconsolidation of certain CIP in the period (restoring the company’s formerly eliminated investment balances). Investments related to deferred compensation awards increased by a net $15.6 million during the period. Of the net $15.6 million increase, $15.4 million related to market valuation changes and foreign exchange movements.
Included in investments are $545.1 million in equity method investments in Invesco Great Wall and in certain of the company’s private equity partnerships, real estate partnerships and other co-investments (December 31, 2020: $426.1 million). The increase of $119.0 million in equity method investments was driven by $119.3 million in current period earnings and an increase from partnership contributions of $62.0 million. This increase was partially offset by $38.8 million related to a dividend from Invesco Great Wall, $13.5 million related to capital distributions from partnership investments, $5.2 million related to distributions from partnership investments and $4.8 million in investment losses, partially offset by foreign exchange movements. Also included in investments are foreign time deposits of $29.1 million.
Assets held for policyholders and policyholder payables
One of our subsidiaries, Invesco Pensions Limited, is an insurance company that was established to facilitate retirement savings plans in the UK. The entity holds assets that are managed for its clients on its balance sheet with an equal and offsetting liability. The decrease in the balance of these accounts from $7,582.1 million at December 31, 2020 to $2,232.2 million at September 30, 2021 was the result of net business outflows of $5,404.4 million and negative foreign exchange rate movements of $55.5 million, offset by $110.0 million of positive market movements.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our capital structure, together with available cash balances, cash flows generated from operations, existing capacity under our credit facility and further capital market activities, if necessary, should provide us with sufficient resources to meet present and future cash needs, including operating, debt and other obligations as they come due and anticipated future capital requirements.
Capital Management
Our capital management priorities have evolved with the growth and success of our business and include:
• Reinvestment in the business;
• Maintain a strong balance sheet;
• Moderate growth of dividends (as further discussed in the "Dividends" section below); and
• Share repurchases.
As of September 30, 2021, the balance on the $1.5 billion capacity credit facility was zero.
The company did not repurchase any of its shares in the open market during the three months ended September 30, 2021. During the third quarter, an aggregate of 0.4 million common shares were withheld in the amount of $10.5 million related to tax withholding requirements on employee share vestings.
Our capital management process is executed in a manner consistent with our desire to maintain strong, investment grade credit ratings. As of the date of our filing, Invesco held credit ratings of BBB+/Stable, A3/Stable and A-/Stable from Standard & Poor’s Ratings Service (“S&P”), Moody’s Investor Services (“Moody’s”) and Fitch Ratings (“Fitch”), respectively. Our ability to continue to access the capital markets in a timely manner depends on several factors, including our credit ratings, the condition of the global economy including the impact of COVID-19, investors’ willingness to purchase our securities, interest rates, credit spreads and the valuation levels of equity markets. If we are unable to access capital markets in a timely manner, our business could be adversely impacted.
61
Other items
Certain of our subsidiaries are required to maintain minimum levels of capital. Such requirements may change from time-to-time as additional guidance is released based on a variety of factors, including balance sheet composition, assessment of risk exposures and governance, and review from regulators. These and other similar provisions of applicable laws and regulations may have the effect of limiting withdrawals of capital, repayment of intercompany loans and payment of dividends by such entities. Our financial condition or liquidity could be adversely affected if certain of our subsidiaries are unable to distribute funds to us.
All of our regulated EU and UK subsidiaries are subject to consolidated capital requirements under applicable EU and UK requirements, including those arising from the EU's Capital Requirements Directive and the UK's Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP), and we maintain capital within this European sub-group to satisfy these regulations. We meet these requirements in part by holding cash and cash equivalents. This retained cash can be used for general business purposes in the European sub-group in the countries where it is located. Due to the capital restrictions, the ability to transfer cash between certain jurisdictions may be limited. In addition, transfers of cash between international jurisdictions may have adverse tax consequences. We are in compliance with all regulatory minimum net capital requirements. As of September 30, 2021, the company’s minimum regulatory capital requirement was $723.4 million (December 31, 2020: $763.6 million); the decrease was driven by a reduction in net capital requirements in the UK as a result of lower expenses and AUM levels, as well as the weakening of the Pound Sterling against the U.S. Dollar. The total amount of non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents was $1,064.6 million at September 30, 2021 (December 31, 2020: $1,034.8 million).
The consolidation of $9,734.2 million and $7,224.5 million of assets and long-term debt of CIP as of September 30, 2021, respectively, did not impact the company’s liquidity and capital resources. The majority of CIP balances related to consolidated CLOs. The collateral assets of the CLOs are held solely to satisfy the obligations of the CLOs. The company has no right to the benefits from, nor does it bear the risks associated with, the collateral assets held by the CLOs, beyond the company’s direct investments in, and management and performance fees generated from these products, which are eliminated upon consolidation. If the company were to liquidate, the collateral assets would not be available to the general creditors of the company, and as a result, the company does not consider them to be company assets. Likewise, if the CLOs were to liquidate, their investors would have no recourse to the general credit of the company. The company therefore does not consider this debt to be an obligation of the company. See Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements - Note 12, "Consolidated Investment Products", for additional details.
Cash Flows Discussion
The ability to consistently generate cash flows from operations in excess of dividend payments, common share repurchases, capital expenditures and ongoing operating expenses is one of our company’s fundamental financial strengths. Operations continue to be financed from current earnings and borrowings. Our principal uses of cash, other than for operating expenses, include dividend payments, capital expenditures, acquisitions, purchases of our common shares in the open market and investments in certain new investment products.

(1) These tables include non-GAAP presentations. Cash held by CIP is not available for use by Invesco. Additionally, there is no recourse to Invesco for CIP debt. The cash flows of CIP do not form part of the company’s cash flow management processes, nor do they form part of the company’s significant liquidity evaluations and decisions. Policyholder assets and liabilities are equal and offsetting and have no impact on Invesco’s shareholder’s equity. The impact of cash inflows/outflows from policyholder assets and liabilities are reflected within cash flows from operating activities as changes in receivables and/or payables, as applicable.
(2) Restricted cash of $129.2 million as of December 31, 2020 is recorded in Other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. There was no restricted cash as of September 30, 2021 or 2020.
Operating Activities
Operating cash flows include the receipt of investment management and other fees generated from AUM, offset by operating expenses and changes in operating assets and liabilities. Although some receipts and payments are seasonal, particularly bonus payments which are paid out during the first quarter, in general, after allowing for the change in cash held by CIP, and investment activities, our operating cash flows move in the same direction as our operating income.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, cash provided by operating activities was $1,081.8 million compared to $662.7 million provided during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. As shown in the tables above, the impact of CIP to cash provided by operating activities was $141.2 million of cash used during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to $54.2 million of cash used during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Excluding the impact of CIP, cash provided by operations was $1,223.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to $716.9 million of cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Cash inflows included a $576.4 million increase in operating income, net investment redemptions of $81.5 million, including seed money and deferred compensation investments (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $179.2 million net redemptions) and an Invesco Great Wall dividend of $38.8 million (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $29.4 million). Operating cash inflows were partially offset by net outflows from changes in payables and receivables due to timing of payments and receipts.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $579.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 (nine months ended September 30, 2020: net cash used of $829.0 million). As shown in the tables above, the impact of CIP on investing activities, including investment purchases, sales and returns of capital, was $510.5 million of cash used (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $756.7 million net cash used). Excluding the impact of CIP cash flows, net cash used in investing activities was $68.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 (nine months ended September 30, 2020: net cash used of $72.3 million).
Cash outflows for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, excluding the impact of CIP, includes a net inflow of $4.3 million, which is compromised of proceeds of $169.9 million from sales and returns of capital of investments (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $154.3 million proceeds), partially offset by purchases of investments of $165.6 million (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $151.1 million purchases).
During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the company had capital expenditures of $73.2 million (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $73.6 million). Our capital expenditures related principally in each period to technology initiatives, including enhancements to platforms from which we maintain our portfolio management systems and fund accounting systems, improvements in computer hardware and software desktop products for employees, new telecommunications products to enhance our internal information flow and back-up disaster recovery systems. Also, in each period, a portion of these costs related to leasehold improvements made to the various buildings and workspaces used in our offices. These projects have been funded with proceeds from our operating cash flows.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $14.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 (nine months ended September 30, 2020: net cash used of $230.3 million). As shown in the tables above, the impact of CIP on financing activities provided cash of $904.1 million (nine months ended September 30, 2020: cash provided of $391.3 million). Excluding the impact of CIP, financing activities used net cash of $889.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 (nine months ended September 30, 2020: net cash used of $621.6 million).
Financing cash outflows during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 included the $309.4 million settlement of the forward contracts (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $190.6 million), $104.1 million of net collateral on the forward contracts returned to the counterparty (September 30, 2020: net collateral was in a receivable position and reflected within investing activities), $228.9 million of common dividend payments for the dividends declared in January, April and July (nine months ended September 30, 2020: common dividends paid of $285.9 million), $177.6 million of preferred dividend payments for dividends declared in January, April and July (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $177.6 million), the payment of $58.1 million to meet employees’ withholding tax obligations on common share vestings (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $40.7 million) and a payment of $11.8 million of contingent consideration (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $16.8 million). The credit facility had no net borrowing during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 (nine months ended September 30, 2020: net borrowing of $90.0 million).
Dividends
When declared, Invesco pays dividends on a quarterly basis in arrears. Holders of our preferred shares are eligible to receive dividends at an annual rate of 5.9% of the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, or $59 per share per annum. The preferred stock dividend is payable quarterly on a non-cumulative basis when, if and as declared by our board of directors. However, if we have not declared and paid or set aside for payment full quarterly dividends on the preferred stock for a particular dividend period, we may not declare or pay dividends on, or redeem, purchase or acquire, our common stock or other junior securities in the next succeeding dividend period. In addition, if we have not declared and paid or set aside for payment quarterly dividends on the preferred stock for six quarterly periods, whether or not consecutive, the number of directors of the company will be increased by two and the holders of the preferred shares shall have the right to elect such two additional members of the Board of Directors.
On October 26, 2021, the company announced a third quarter 2021 cash dividend of $0.17 per share to holders of common shares, payable on December 2, 2021, to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 12, 2021 with an ex-dividend date of November 10, 2021.
64
On October 26, 2021 the company announced a preferred dividend of $14.75 per share to the holders of preferred shares, representing the period from September 1, 2021 through November 30, 2021. The preferred dividend is payable on December 1, 2021 to shareholders of record at close of business on November 15, 2021.
The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will be declared by our board of directors and will depend upon, among other factors, our earnings, financial condition and capital requirements at the time such declaration and payment are considered. The board has a policy of managing dividends in a prudent fashion, with due consideration given to profit levels, overall debt levels and historical dividend payouts.
Long-term debt
The carrying value of our long-term debt at September 30, 2021 was $2,084.5 million (December 31, 2020: $2,082.6 million) and was comprised of the following:

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the company’s weighted average cost of debt was 3.95% (nine months ended September 30, 2020: 3.71%).
Financial covenants under the credit agreement include: (i) the quarterly maintenance of an adjusted debt/EBITDA leverage ratio, as defined in the credit agreement, of not greater than 3.25:1.00, (ii) a coverage ratio (EBITDA, as defined in the credit agreement/interest payable for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ended before the date of determination) of not less than 4.00:1.00. As of September 30, 2021, we were in compliance with our financial covenants. At September 30, 2021, our leverage ratio was 0.86:1.00 (December 31, 2020: 1.37:1.00), and our interest coverage ratio was 23.00:1.00 (December 31, 2020: 11.83:1.00).

(2) Unusual or otherwise non-recurring gains and losses, as defined in our credit facility, are adjusted for in the determination of EBITDA. The benefit to expense related to the change in the OppenheimerFunds acquisition related liability is considered unusual and has been deducted in the determination of EBITDA.
(3) EBITDA and Adjusted debt are non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management in connection with certain debt covenant calculations under our credit agreement. The calculation of EBITDA above (a reconciliation from net income attributable to Invesco Ltd.) is defined by our credit agreement, and therefore net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. is the most appropriate GAAP measure from which to reconcile to EBITDA. The calculation of Adjusted debt is defined in our credit facility and equals long-term debt of $2,084.5 million plus $2.6 million in letters of credit less $200.0 million of excess unrestricted cash (cash and cash equivalents less the minimum regulatory capital requirement, not to exceed $200 million).
Credit and Liquidity Risk
Capital management involves the management of the company’s liquidity and cash flows. The company manages its capital by reviewing annual and projected cash flow forecasts and by monitoring credit, liquidity and market risks, such as interest rate and foreign currency risks (as discussed in Part I, Item 3, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk), through measurement and analysis. The company is primarily exposed to credit risk through its cash and cash equivalent deposits, which are held by external firms. The company invests its cash balances in its own institutional money market products, as well as with external high credit-quality financial institutions. These arrangements create exposure to concentrations of credit risk.
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to meet an obligation. All cash and cash equivalent balances are subject to credit risk, as they represent deposits made by the company with external banks and other institutions. As of September 30, 2021, our maximum exposure to credit risk related to our cash and cash equivalent balances is $1,773.2 million. See Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements - Note 2, "Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities", for information regarding cash and cash equivalents invested in affiliated money market funds.
The company does not utilize credit derivatives or similar instruments to mitigate the maximum exposure to credit risk. The company does not expect any counterparties to its financial instruments to fail to meet their obligations.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities as the same become due. The company is exposed to liquidity risk through its $2,084.5 million in total debt. The company actively manages liquidity risk by preparing cash flow forecasts for future periods, reviewing them regularly with senior management, maintaining a committed credit facility, scheduling significant gaps between major debt maturities and engaging external financing sources in regular dialogue.
Effects of Inflation
Inflation can impact our organization primarily in two ways. First, inflationary pressures can result in increases in our cost structure, especially to the extent that large expense components such as compensation are impacted. To the degree that these expense increases are not recoverable or cannot be counterbalanced through pricing increases due to the competitive environment, our profitability could be negatively impacted. Secondly, the value of the assets that we manage may be negatively impacted when inflationary expectations result in a rising interest rate environment. Declines in the values of these AUM could lead to reduced revenues as management fees are generally calculated based upon the size of AUM.
Common Share Repurchase Plan
The company did not purchase shares in the open market during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. An aggregate of 0.4 million and 2.6 million common shares were withheld on vesting events during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 to meet employees’ withholding tax obligations (three and nine months ended September 30, 2020: 0.6 million and 3.0 million shares). The fair value of these common shares withheld at the respective withholding dates was $10.5 million and $58.1 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 (three and nine months ended September 30, 2020: $5.8 million and $40.7 million). At September 30, 2021, approximately $732.2 million remains available under the share repurchase authorizations approved by the Board on July 22, 2016.

Off Balance Sheet Commitments
See Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements - Note 11, “Commitments and Contingencies - Legal Contingencies”, for more information regarding undrawn capital commitments.
Contractual Obligations
We have future obligations under various contracts relating to debt and interest payments, financing and operating leases, long-term defined benefit pension, and acquisition contracts. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, there were no material changes to the company’s contractual obligations.
67
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
There have been no significant changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in our most recent Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Critical accounting policies are those that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments and would therefore be deemed the most critical to an understanding of our results of operations and financial condition.
Recent Accounting Standards
See Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements - Note 1, "Accounting Policies - Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted.”
68
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
In the normal course of its business, the company is primarily exposed to market risk in the form of AUM market price risk, securities market risk, interest rate risk and foreign exchange rate risk. There have not been any material changes to the company’s exposures to market risks during the period ended September 30, 2021 that would require an update to the disclosures provided in the most recent Form 10-K.
AUM Market Price Risk
The company’s investment management revenues are comprised of fees based on the value of AUM. Declines in the market prices of equity and fixed income securities, commodities and derivatives, or other similar financial instruments held in client portfolios could cause revenues to decline because of lower investment management fees by:
•Causing the value of AUM to decrease.
•Causing the returns realized on AUM to decrease (impacting performance fees).
•Causing clients to withdraw funds in favor of investments in markets that they perceive to offer greater opportunity and that the company does not serve.
•Causing clients to rebalance assets away from investments that the company manages into investments that the company does not manage.
•Causing clients to reallocate assets away from products that earn higher revenues into products that earn lower revenues.
Underperformance of client accounts relative to competing products could exacerbate these factors.
Securities Market Risk
The company has investments in managed investment products that invest in a variety of asset classes. Investments are generally made to establish a track record for a new fund or investment vehicle or to hedge economically exposure to certain deferred compensation plans. The company’s exposure to market risk from financial instruments measured at fair value arises from its investments.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk relates to the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The company is exposed to interest rate risk primarily through its external debt and cash and cash equivalent investments. See Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements - Note 4, "Long-Term Debt" for details of the company’s long-term debt arrangements. As of September 30, 2021, the interest rates on 100.0% of the company’s borrowings were fixed for a weighted average period of 6.2 years, and the company had a zero balance on its floating rate credit facility.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk
The company has certain investments in foreign operations, whose net assets and results of operations are exposed to foreign currency translation risk when translated into U.S. Dollars upon consolidation into Invesco Ltd.
The company is exposed to foreign exchange revaluation into the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income on monetary assets and liabilities that are held by subsidiaries in different functional currencies than the subsidiaries’ functional currencies. Net foreign exchange revaluation losses were $3.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 (nine months ended September 30, 2020: $3.3 million losses), and are included in general and administrative expenses and other gains and losses, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. We continue to monitor our exposure to foreign exchange revaluation.
69
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information the company is required to disclose in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the company files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
We have evaluated, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2021. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based upon our evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms, and that it is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
We have evaluated any change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and have concluded that there was no change that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
