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, 2021 (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
None.
Pending Accounting Pronouncements

Net Investment Hedge
The company designated certain intercompany debt as a non-derivative net investment hedging instrument against foreign currency exposure related to its net investment in foreign operations. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, £130 million ($171.2 million and $176.1 million, respectively) of intercompany debt was designated as a net investment hedge. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the company recognized foreign currency gains of $4.9 million (three months ended March 31,
12
2021: losses of $5.7 million) resulting from the net investment hedge within currency translation differences on investments in foreign subsidiaries in Other comprehensive income.
7. REVENUE

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 months ended March 31, 2022, yield support waivers resulted in a reduction of total gross operating revenues of $26.3 million (three months ended March 31, 2021: $29.0 million). 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 $29.5 million and $38.6 million related to equity-settled common share-based payment transactions in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Movements on common share awards during the periods ended March 31, are detailed below:

The weighted average grant date fair value of the common share awards that were granted during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $21.24 (three months ended March 31, 2021: $21.19).
At March 31, 2022, there was $234.4 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 2.67 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 $22.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: $30.0 million). Restructuring expenses are recorded to transaction, integration and restructuring expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
The company estimates up to $35 million of remaining restructuring expenses related to the strategic evaluation through the end of 2022, primarily comprised of property, office and technology costs and general and administrative costs.
The following table shows the rollforward of the restructuring liability as of March 31, 2022 and the total restructuring charges for the period ending March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The company recorded the liability to accrued compensation and benefits, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

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 March 31, 2022, the company’s undrawn co-invest capital commitments were $426.1 million (December 31, 2021: $488.8 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 $355.8 million and under the guarantees is $30 million. The fair value of the guarantee liability is not significant to the consolidated financial statements.
The company 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.
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 March 31, 2022 to provide for any such losses that may arise from matters for which the company could reasonably estimate an amount and are deemed probable. 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.
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 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.
15
12. CONSOLIDATED INVESTMENT PRODUCTS (CIP)
The balances related to CIP are identified on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. At March 31, 2022, the company’s net interests in CIP were $463.6 million (December 31, 2021: $461.2 million). The consolidation of investment products did not have a significant impact on net income attributable to the company during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
Non-consolidated VIEs
At March 31, 2022, the company’s carrying value and maximum risk of loss with respect to variable interest entities (VIEs) in which the company is not the primary beneficiary was $90.2 million (December 31, 2021: $134.1 million).
Changes to consolidation of VIEs/VOEs
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the company invested in and consolidated two new VIEs and one new VOE (March 31, 2021: the company invested in and consolidated five new VIEs and three new VOEs). Additionally, during the year ended March 31, 2022, the company determined it was no longer the primary beneficiary of two VIEs and three VOEs (March 31, 2021: the company determined that it was no longer the primary beneficiary of five VIEs and three VOEs). The tables below illustrate the net impact of these consolidation changes to our condensed consolidated summary balance sheets.

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.
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
18
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
We remain highly focused on our capital management and believe we are making solid progress in our efforts to build financial flexibility. On April 6, 2022, we announced that we will redeem the $600 million senior notes due in November 2022 on May 6, 2022, consistent with our commitment to improve our leverage profile. We remain committed to a sustainable dividend policy and to returning capital to shareholders through a combination of modestly increasing dividends and share repurchases. As a result of our progress, the Board approved a 10% increase in our dividend to $0.1875 per share beginning with the dividend that will be paid in the second quarter of 2022. During the first quarter of 2022, the company repurchased $200 million (8.9 million shares) of common stock in the open market.
As previously disclosed, we have undertaken 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 year. This helped us achieve seven 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. In the first quarter of 2022, we realized $26 million in annualized savings, which when combined with the $167 million in annualized savings realized in 2020 and 2021, results in $193 million, or 96%, of our $200 million net savings expectation. The remainder of our net savings is expected to be realized by the end of the year. Remaining restructuring costs related to the strategic evaluation are estimated to be up to $35 million through the end of 2022.
The Russia/Ukraine conflict has created a somber humanitarian crisis and has disrupted markets worldwide. Throughout the crisis we have been dedicated to supporting our clients in this period of uncertainty and market volatility. We believe we are in full compliance with all applicable sanctions. Our overall exposure to Russian securities is limited, and we do not expect a material impact to our financial results.
Invesco is committed to helping our employees, our clients and our communities navigate the challenges presented by the continued impacts of COVID-19. With restrictions and COVID-19 cases easing in many parts of the world, a number of our offices have started to re-open. As we transition to “new normal” ways of working in a post-COVID-19 world, our employees will either be working in-office, working remotely or (for the significant majority of employees) working in a hybrid of these two models. Looking ahead, we will balance our employees’ desire for increased flexibility with the needs of our clients and our business. This thoughtful and coordinated approach helps ensure our ability to continue to meet the needs of our clients and our employees.
Invesco, similar to the broader industry, is transitioning its corporate and investment exposure away from LIBOR to alternative risk-free rates according to regulator and working group defined timelines and guidance. Invesco continues to actively monitor its portfolios holding LIBOR based instruments and strategies utilizing LIBOR as a benchmark and/or performance target and remediate as necessary.
Regarding operational readiness, Invesco has implemented a number of process and system enhancements to support the remediation of legacy LIBOR instruments as well as trading of new alternative risk-free rates-linked instruments. The company continues to engage external service providers and technology vendors to validate whether they can support transition activities and requirements, including processing of fallback language following the applicable LIBOR cessation dates. 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. Despite the company’s preparations, 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.

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 owned by these 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, 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 Assets Under Management discussion:
•Results of Operations (three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to three months ended March 31, 2021);
•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 Great Wall joint venture plus or minus adjustments to remove the operating income impact of CIP, transaction, integration and restructuring adjustments, 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, amortization of intangibles adjusted for the tax benefits resulting from tax amortization of goodwill and 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 March 31, 2022. AUM measured in the one, three, five and ten year quartile rankings represents 47%, 46%, 45% and 41% of total Invesco AUM, respectively, and AUM measured versus benchmark on a one, three, five and ten year basis represents 58%, 56%, 55% and 50% 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 five-year peer group ($705.1 billion).

Assets Under Management
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 the flows are particularly sensitive to short-term interest rate movements.

___________
(1) U.S. GAAP gross revenue yield is not considered a meaningful effective fee rate measure. Gross revenue yield on AUM is equal to U.S. GAAP annualized total operating revenues divided by average AUM, excluding Invesco Great Wall (IGW) AUM. The average AUM for IGW in the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $99.3 billion (three months ended March 31, 2021: $76.6 billion). It is appropriate to exclude the average AUM of IGW as the revenues resulting from these AUM are not presented in our operating revenues. This ratio is not a good measure because the numerator of the U.S. GAAP gross revenue yield excludes the management fees earned from CIP; however, the denominator of the measure includes the AUM of these investment products. Net revenue yield metrics include the net revenues and average AUM of IGW and CIP. 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 March 31, 2022 were $1,545.1 billion, compared to $1,395.1 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
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 months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
Foreign Exchange Rates
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we experienced a decrease in AUM of $3.9 billion due to changes in foreign exchange rates. In the three months ended March 31, 2021, AUM decreased by $3.2 billion due to foreign exchange rate changes.

Results of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021
The discussion below includes the use of non-GAAP financial measures. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional details and reconciliations of the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures to the non-GAAP measures.

____________
(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 decreased operating revenues by $18.2 million, equivalent to 1.1% of total operating revenues, during the three months ended March 31, 2022 when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021.
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. See the company’s disclosures regarding the changes in AUM during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021 in the “Assets Under Management” section above for additional information.
34
Passive AUM generally earn a lower effective fee rate than active asset classes, and therefore, changes in the mix of AUM have an impact on revenues and net revenue yield. In addition, as a significant proportion of our AUM is based outside of the U.S., changes in foreign exchange rates can result in a change to the mix of U.S. Dollar denominated AUM for AUM denominated in other currencies. As fee rates differ across geographic locations, changes to exchange rates have an impact on revenues and net revenue yields.
Average AUM was $1,545.1 billion in the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to $1,395.1 billion in the three months ended March 31, 2021, an increase of 10.8%. However, the impact of the increase in AUM on our revenues was offset by changes in the mix of the AUM between the periods. At the industry level, investors continue to shift towards passive products such as ETFs. As a result of this change in AUM mix, revenues and the resulting net revenue yield ex performance fees ex QQQ has declined from 40.1 basis points for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 to 36.6 basis points for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.
Investment Management Fees
Investment management fees decreased by $26.1 million (2.2%) in the three months ended March 31, 2022 to $1,180.5 million as compared to $1,206.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased investment management fees by $14.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. After allowing for foreign exchange movements, investment management fees decreased by $12.1 million (1.0%). See discussion above on the impact of AUM changes on our investment management fees.
The discretionary money market fee waivers (see Item 1. Financial Statements - Note 7, "Revenue") also impact our investment management fees. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, waivers reduced management fees by $26.3 million, an improvement from waivers of $29.0 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2021.
Service and Distribution Fees
In the three months ended March 31, 2022, service and distribution fees decreased by $2.1 million (0.6%) to $379.0 million as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 of $381.1 million. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased service and distribution fees by $2.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. After allowing for foreign exchange movements, service and distribution fees increased by $0.8 million.
Performance Fees
Of our $1,555.9 billion in AUM at March 31, 2022, approximately $62.3 billion (4.0%) could potentially earn performance fees, including carried interests and performance fees related to partnership investments and separate accounts.
In the three months ended March 31, 2022, performance fees decreased by $5.7 million (85.1%) to $1.0 million as compared to $6.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Performance fees during the three months ended March 31, 2022 were primarily generated from real estate products.
Other Revenues
In the three months ended March 31, 2022, other revenues increased by $3.6 million (5.5%) to $68.9 million as compared to $65.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased other revenues by $1.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. After allowing for foreign exchange movements, other revenues increased by $4.9 million. The increase in other revenues was primarily driven by an increase of $13.8 million in real estate transaction fees, partially offset by lower front end fees of $9.1 million.

Invesco Great Wall
The company’s most significant joint venture is our 49% investment in Invesco Great Wall Fund Management Company Limited (the “Invesco Great Wall” joint venture). Management reflects 100% of Invesco Great Wall’s activity in its net revenues and adjusted operating expenses because it is important to evaluate the contribution that Invesco Great Wall is making to the business. 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 the 51% non-controlling interests. See “Schedule of Non-GAAP Information” for additional disclosures regarding the use of net revenues.
Net revenues from Invesco Great Wall were $124.1 million and average AUM was $99.3 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2022 (net revenues were $104.0 million and average AUM was $76.6 billion in the three months ended March 31, 2021). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements during the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased net revenues by $2.6 million as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. After allowing for foreign exchange movements, net revenues from Invesco Great Wall were $121.5 million. The increase in revenue is a result of higher AUM, partially offset by a reduction in net revenue yield due to changes in the mix of AUM.
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 $11.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: $10.1 million).

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, operating expenses decreased by $63.7 million (4.8%) to $1,251.7 million (three months ended March 31, 2021: $1,315.4 million). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased operating expenses by $16.0 million, or 1.3% of total operating expenses, during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Third-Party Distribution, Service and Advisory
Third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses decreased $10.2 million (2.0%) to $512.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: $522.8 million). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased third-party costs by $6.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. After allowing for foreign exchange rate changes, the decrease in costs was $4.0 million. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease of $14.1 million in renewal commissions, front end commissions and transaction fees, partially offset by $10.1 million of higher asset and sales-based fees and unitary fees.
Employee Compensation
Employee compensation decreased $56.3 million (11.5%) to $432.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: $489.2 million). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased employee compensation by $5.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. After allowing for foreign exchange rate changes, there was a decrease in employee compensation of $50.4
37
million. This decrease was driven by decreases of $26.0 million related to the mark-to-market on the deferred compensation liability and $7.2 million in share-based compensation expenses as a result of savings realized from our strategic evaluation, which includes realigning our client facing workforce to support key areas of growth and repositioning to lower cost locations. The remaining decrease was driven by lower variable compensation due to the performance of the company in 2022 compared to 2021, combined with savings realized from our strategic evaluation.
Headcount at March 31, 2022 was 8,549 (March 31, 2021: 8,426).
Marketing
Marketing expenses increased $5.9 million (37.3%) to $21.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: $15.8 million). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased marketing expenses by $0.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. After allowing for foreign exchange rate changes, the increase in marketing expenses was $6.4 million. The increase was related to increased client events, advertising and travel.
Property, Office and Technology
Property, office and technology costs increased by $2.7 million (2.1%) to $132.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: $129.3 million). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased property, office and technology expenses by $1.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. After allowing for foreign exchange rate movements, the increase was $4.4 million. The increase was driven by increases in outsourced administration costs of $4.5 million and software maintenance costs of $4.1 million, partially offset by lower property expenses of $4.8 million.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses increased by $5.6 million (5.8%) to $102.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: $96.6 million). The impact of foreign exchange rate movements decreased general and administrative expenses by $1.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. After allowing for foreign exchange rate movements, the increase was $7.3 million. The increase was primarily driven by increases of $6.1 million in professional services costs, $4.3 million of market data services costs and $4.2 million of increased fund client expenses, irrecoverable taxes and travel. The increase was partially offset by decreases of $4.0 million from foreign currency revaluations and $3.6 million from fund expenses incurred by CIP.
Transaction, Integration and Restructuring
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, transaction, integration and restructuring charges were $35.2 million (three months ended March 31, 2021: $45.8 million).
Transaction and integration expense (excluding restructuring) was $8.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: $12.3 million expenses), composed of $5.4 million of compensation-related expenses and $2.7 million of non-compensation expenses primarily related to the OppenheimerFunds acquisition.
Restructuring costs were $27.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: $33.5 million). Restructuring costs related to the strategic evaluation were $22.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: $30.0 million) and are primarily composed of non-cash property, office and technology costs (see Note 9, "Restructuring", for additional details).

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates increased by $5.9 million to $33.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: $27.5 million). The increase is primarily driven by increases of $27.9
million in our joint venture investment in Invesco Great Wall due to increased revenues as discussed above and $11.4 million from real estate investments.
Interest expense
Interest expense decreased by $0.6 million to $23.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: $23.8 million)
Other gains/(losses), net
Other gains/(losses), net was a loss of $45.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: $34.1 million gain). Included in the loss were $42.9 million of losses on investments and instruments held for our deferred compensation plans and $5.9 million of net losses related to the mark-to-market on seed money investments, partially offset by $2.4 million of net foreign exchange gains on intercompany loans. Included in the gain for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $15.7 million of gains on investments and instruments held for our deferred compensation plans, $8.1 million of gains on the mark-to-market of acquisition-related contingent consideration liabilities, $4.4 million of net gains related to the mark-to-market on seed money investments, $3.5 million of net foreign exchange gains on intercompany loans and $2.2 million of net gains related to our defined benefit pension plan.
Other income/(expense) of CIP
In the three months ended March 31, 2022, interest and dividend income of CIP increased by $5.8 million (8.4%) to $74.5 million (three months ended March 31, 2021: $68.7 million). Interest expense of CIP increased by $1.6 million (3.9%) to $42.5 million (three months ended March 31, 2021: $40.9 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 March 31, 2022, Other gains/(losses), net losses of CIP were net losses of $55.3 million as compared to net gains of $66.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021. The net losses during the three months ended March 31, 2022 were attributable to market-driven losses on investments held by consolidated funds.
Net impact of CIP and related noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities
The net impact of CIP on 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, which is reclassified into other gains/(losses) from accumulated other comprehensive income upon consolidation. The consolidation of investment products during the three months ended March 31, 2022 resulted in no net change in net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. (three months ended March 31, 2021: resulted in no net change in net income attributable to Invesco Ltd). 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.
39
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.
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 increased to 25.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: 22.3%). The rate increase is primarily due to the decrease in income attributable to interests in CIP.

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. 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 earnings per common share amounts presented above and the calculated earnings per common share amounts under the two class method.
(1) Invesco Great Wall
The company 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
The company calculates net revenues by reducing operating revenues to exclude fees that are passed through to external parties who perform functions on behalf of, and distribute, the company’s managed funds. The net revenue presentation assists in identifying the revenue contribution generated by the company, 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, as 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.
(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.
The company 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,
42
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
The company 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 months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 -- Transaction, Integration and Restructuring” for additional details.
(5) Amortization of intangible assets and related tax benefits
The company believes it is useful to investors and other users of our financial statements to remove amortization expense related to acquired assets net of the tax benefits realized on the tax amortization of goodwill and 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.

Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $586.8 million from $1,896.4 million at December 31, 2021 to $1,309.6 million at March 31, 2022. 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.

Investments
As of March 31, 2022, we had $966.8 million in total investments (December 31, 2021: $926.3 million). Included in investments are $98.8 million of seed money investments in affiliated funds used to seed funds as we launch new products and $205.8 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 $10.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in the period was related to redemptions of $12.2 million, a non-cash decrease of $8.7 million due to the net consolidation of certain CIP in the period (eliminating the company’s investment balances) and $6.0 million of market valuation changes and foreign exchange movements, partially offset by purchases of $16.3 million. Investments related to deferred compensation awards decreased by a net $20.8 million during the period. The net $20.8 million decrease in the period was related to $21.6 million of negative market valuation changes and foreign exchange movements, partially offset by $0.8 million in purchases.
Included in investments are $623.7 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, 2021: $550.1 million). The increase of $73.6 million in equity method investments was driven by an increase from partnership contributions of $48.8 million and $33.4 million in current period earnings. This increase was partially offset by $3.0 million related to capital distributions from partnership investments, $2.8 million related to distributions from partnership investments and $2.8 million in market valuation changes and foreign exchange movements. Also included in investments are foreign time deposits of $29.3 million.
As of March 31, 2022, the company had $892.8 million in seed capital and co-investments (December 31, 2021: $856.7 million), including direct investments in consolidated investment products. Total seed capital and co-investments is presented as a helpful measure for investors and represents our net investment interest including our net interest in CIP, net of deferred compensation investments, joint ventures and other investments. The following table reconciles the investment balance to the total seed capital and co-investment balance.

(2) Included in the total seed and co-investment balance as of March 31, 2022 is $293.3 million of seed capital and $599.5 million of co-investments (December 31, 2021: $304.7 million of seed capital and $552.0 million of co-investments).
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 $1,893.6 million at December 31, 2021 to $1,662.1 million at March 31, 2022 was the result of net business outflows of $183.5 million and negative market movements of $63.8 million, offset by $15.8 million of positive foreign exchange rate 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, in no particular order of priority: reinvestment in the business, maintaining a strong balance sheet and returning capital to our investors through share repurchases and moderate growth of dividends.
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.
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the company repurchased 8.9 million common shares in open market transactions utilizing $200 million in cash. As of March 31, 2022, approximately $532.2 million remained authorized under the company’s common share repurchase authorization approved by the Board on July 22, 2016.
In line with our capital management priorities, the company increased our quarterly common dividend by 10% to $0.1875 per common share beginning with the dividend that will be paid in the second quarter of 2022.
On April 6, 2022, the company announced the early redemption of the $600 million 3.125% Senior Notes due on November 30, 2022, consistent with our commitment to improve our leverage profile. The redemption will occur on May 6, 2022. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the balance on the $1.5 billion capacity credit facility was zero.
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, 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 March 31, 2022, the company’s minimum regulatory capital requirement was $708.4 million (December 31, 2021: $724.9 million); the decrease was driven by the weakening of the Pound Sterling against the U.S. Dollar. The total amount of non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents was $820.8 million at March 31, 2022 (December 31, 2021: $1,088.3 million).
The consolidation of $9,752.7 million and $7,084.4 million of assets and debt of CIP as of March 31, 2022, respectively, did not impact the company’s liquidity and capital resources. 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.
The following table represents a reconciliation of the cash flow information presented on a U.S. GAAP basis to the cash flows information, excluding the impact of the cash flows of Consolidated Investment Products for the reasons outlined in footnote 1 to the table:

(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) There was no restricted cash as of March 31, 2022. Restricted cash of $208.0 million as of March 31, 2021 is recorded in Other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
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 during the first quarter, after allowing for the change in cash held by CIP, and investment activities, our operating cash flows generally move in the same direction as our operating income.
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, cash used in operating activities was $375.4 million compared to $26.9 million used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2021. Excluding the impact of CIP, cash used in operations was $119.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $74.7 million of cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2021. Cash outflows included outflows from changes in payables and receivables due to timing of payments and receipts as well as net investment purchases of $12.7 million, including seed money and deferred compensation investments (three months ended March 31, 2021: $36.2 million net redemptions). Operating cash inflows were partially offset by a $33.4 million increase in operating income.
48
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $79.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: net cash used of $139.9 million). Excluding the impact of CIP cash flows, net cash used in investing activities was $77.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: net cash used of $15.3 million).
Cash outflows for the three months ended March 31, 2022, excluding the impact of CIP, included purchases of investments of $78.1 million (three months ended March 31, 2021: $59.2 million purchases), partially offset by proceeds of $24.5 million from sales and returns of capital of investments (three months ended March 31, 2021: $64.2 million proceeds).
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the company had capital expenditures of $23.9 million (three months ended March 31, 2021: $20.3 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 client-facing systems including websites and client reporting tools, upgrades in computer hardware and software for employees, and improvements in the firm’s data solutions. 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 used in financing activities totaled $55.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: net cash provided of $137.8 million). Excluding the impact of CIP, financing activities used net cash of $369.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: net cash used of $222.1 million).
Financing cash outflows during the three months ended March 31, 2022 included purchases of common shares through the open market of $200 million, $77.8 million of common dividend payments for the dividends declared in January (three months ended March 31, 2021: common dividends paid of $71.5 million), $59.2 million of preferred dividend payments for dividends declared in January (three months ended March 31, 2021: $59.2 million) and the payment of $32.5 million to meet employees’ withholding tax obligations on common share vestings (three months ended March 31, 2021: $44.7 million). The three months ended March 31, 2021 also included a payment of $8.5 million of contingent consideration, the $117.0 million settlement of the forward contracts and $78.8 million of net collateral received on the forward contracts.
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 April 26, 2022, the company announced a first quarter 2022 cash dividend of $0.1875 per share to holders of common shares, payable on June 2, 2022, to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 10, 2022 with an ex-dividend date of May 9, 2022.
On April 26, 2022, the company announced a preferred dividend of $14.75 per share to the holders of preferred shares, representing the period from March 1, 2022 through May 31, 2022 The preferred dividend is payable on June 1, 2022 to shareholders of record at close of business on May 16, 2022.
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.

Debt
The carrying value of our debt at March 31, 2022 was $2,085.7 million (December 31, 2021: $2,085.1 million) and was comprised of the following:

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the company’s weighted average cost of debt was 3.95% (three months ended March 31, 2021: 3.95%).
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) an interest 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 March 31, 2022, we were in compliance with our financial covenants. At March 31, 2022, our leverage ratio was 0.82:1.00 (December 31, 2021: 0.79:1.00), and our interest coverage ratio was 24.55:1.00 (December 31, 2021: 25.21:1.00).

(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 and the related insurance recovery 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 facility 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 debt of $2,085.7 million plus $2.9 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).
50
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 March 31, 2022, our maximum exposure to credit risk related to our cash and cash equivalent balances is $1,309.6 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 they become due. The company is exposed to liquidity risk through its $2,085.7 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
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the company repurchased 8.9 million shares in the open market at a cost of $200 million (three months ended March 31, 2021: none). Separately an aggregate of 1.6 million common shares were withheld on vesting events during the three months ended March 31, 2022 to meet employees’ withholding tax obligations (three months ended March 31, 2021: 2.1 million shares). The fair value of these common shares withheld at the respective withholding dates was $32.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 (three months ended March 31, 2021: $44.7 million). At March 31, 2022, approximately $532.2 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.

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, 2021. 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.”
52
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 March 31, 2022 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.

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 March 31, 2022. 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 three months ended March 31, 2022 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.
