THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PREPARATION

THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PREPARATION.

T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. derives its consolidated revenues and net income primarily from investment advisory services that its subsidiaries provide to individual and institutional investors that invest in a broad range of investment solutions across equity, fixed income, multi-asset, and alternative capabilities. We also provide certain investment advisory clients with related administrative services, including distribution, mutual fund transfer agent, accounting, and shareholder services; participant recordkeeping and transfer agent services for defined contribution retirement plans; brokerage; trust services; and non-discretionary advisory services.

The investment solutions are provided in a number of vehicles including the T. Rowe Price U.S. mutual funds ("U.S. mutual funds"), subadvised funds, separately managed accounts, collective investment trusts, exchange-traded funds, and other sponsored products. The other sponsored products include: open-ended investment products offered to investors outside the U.S., products offered through variable annuity life insurance plans in the U.S., affiliated private investment funds, business development companies, an interval fund, and collateralized loan obligations.

Investment advisory fees depend largely on the total value and composition of assets under our management. Accordingly, fluctuations in financial markets and in the composition of assets under management impact our revenues and results of operations.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These principles require the use of estimates and reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of our results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Actual results may vary from our estimates. We are reporting performance-based advisory fees in a separate line of the consolidated income statement to increase transparency, therefore, investment advisory fees for prior periods were recast to reflect the new presentation and ensure comparability.

The unaudited financial information contained in these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in our 2024 Annual Report.

NEWLY ENACTED U.S. LEGISLATION.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the U.S. The OBBBA contains significant changes and modifications to federal and international tax provisions including 100% bonus depreciation and domestic research cost expensing. We continue evaluating the impact of the legislation on our estimated annual effective tax rate. We believe that the impact of the OBBBA’s provisions will not be material to our financial position and results of operations.

NEWLY ISSUED BUT NOT YET ADOPTED ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE.

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09 - Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires public entities, on an annual basis, to provide disclosure of specific categories in the rate reconciliation as well as disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. This amendment is effective for our 2025 annual disclosures. The additional disclosure requirements will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2024-03 - Income Statement- Reporting Comprehensive Income- Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-4): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosures of additional information and disaggregation of certain expenses included in the income statement. The guidance is effective for the firm on January 1, 2027, and allows for either a prospective or retrospective approach on adoption. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption will have on our financial statements and have not yet determined our transition approach.

We have considered all other newly issued accounting guidance that is applicable to our operations and the preparation of our unaudited consolidated statements, including those we have not yet adopted. We do not believe that any such guidance has or will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.
