NEWS RELEASE

T. ROWE PRICE GROUP REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2023 RESULTS
BALTIMORE (October 27, 2023) - T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. (NASDAQ-GS: TROW) today reported its results for the third quarter of 2023.
Quarter end assets under management of $1.35 trillion
Net client outflows of $17.4 billion
Diluted earnings per common share (EPS) of $1.97; Adjusted diluted EPS of $2.17
Returned $386 million to stockholders from the recurring quarterly dividend and stock repurchases

Rob Sharps, chief executive officer and president, commented, “Third quarter trends were largely similar to what we experienced earlier in the year—investment performance was solid and particularly strong in our largest franchises; we made progress on our strategic initiatives; and we executed on planned cost savings efforts. However, our flows remain under pressure, with net outflows from equity outweighing the positive net flows to fixed income, multi-asset, and alternatives this quarter."

In recent years, the firm began offering non-discretionary advisory services through model delivery and multi-asset solutions for providers to implement. The firm records the revenue earned on these services in administrative fees. The assets under advisement in these portfolios, predominantly in the United States, were $10 billion at
September 30, 2023.

(1)The Capital allocation-based income represents the change in accrued carried interest. The percentage change is not meaningful (n/m).

Net revenues earned in Q3 2023 were $1.7 billion, an increase of 5.2% from Q3 2022 and an increase of 3.8% from Q2 2023. The Q3 2023 increase over both periods was driven by increases in accrued carried interest and higher investment advisory fees.

The investment advisory fee annualized effective fee rate of 41.7 basis points in Q3 2023 decreased from 42.5 basis points earned in Q3 2022 and 42.3 basis points earned in Q2 2023. In comparison with Q3 2022, the decrease was primarily driven by a mix shift in assets under management toward lower fee asset classes and vehicles as a result of net equity outflows over the last twelve months. The impact of the net equity outflows was offset slightly by higher market returns. In comparison with Q2 2023, the decrease was primarily driven by performance fees earned on certain alternatives and equity products in Q2 2023 along with a mix shift in assets under management toward lower fee asset classes and vehicles.

Capital allocation-based income in Q3 2023 of $66.1 million includes $91.9 million in additional accrued carried interest, partially offset by $25.8 million in acquisition-related non-cash amortization and impairments. Comparatively, the Q3 2022 amount of $1.1 million includes $14.3 million in additional accrued carried interest, substantially offset by $13.2 million in non-cash amortization. The increase in accrued carried interest in the 2023 quarter as compared to the 2022 quarter was largely driven by stronger absolute and relative performance.

A portion of the capital allocation-based income is passed through as compensation and recognized in compensation and related costs with the unpaid amount reported as non-controlling interest on the

3



consolidated balance sheet. For detail of the quarterly change in accrued carried interest, which is reported as part of investments on the consolidated balance sheet, and related non-controlling interest, see the applicable tables at the end of this release.

Operating expenses were $1,089.4 million, an increase of 7.5% from Q3 2022 and an increase of 1.2% from Q2 2023. On a non-GAAP basis, adjusted operating expenses in Q3 2023 were $1,061.3 million, a 3.2% increase from Q3 2022 and a 3.4% increase from Q2 2023. The increase in adjusted operating expenses from Q3 2022 was primarily driven by higher salaries and related benefits, including severance related to the July workforce action, higher accrued carried interest-related compensation, and an increase in technology, occupancy, and facility costs. These increases were partly offset by lower general, administrative and other costs. A higher interim bonus accrual and distribution and servicing costs also contributed to the increase from Q2 2023.

Compensation, benefits, and related costs in Q3 2023 of $617.0 million increased $21.4 million from Q3 2022 and $26.0 million from Q2 2023. The increase from these periods was due primarily to higher salaries and related benefits, including severance related to the July workforce action, offset in part by an increase in capitalized labor. The firm employed 7,842 associates at September 30, 2023, a decrease of 1.9% from September 30, 2022, a decrease of 0.3% from the end of 2022, and a decrease of 0.8% from June 30, 2023.

Technology, occupancy, and facility costs in Q3 2023 of $159.7 million increased $16.1 million from Q3 2022, primarily due to higher costs from the firm's ongoing investment in its technology capabilities,

4



including hosted solution licenses and depreciation. The firm began occupying its new London office in late September.

General, administrative, and other costs in Q3 2023 of $85.7 million decreased $29.2 million from Q3 2022 and $14.3 million from Q2 2023. The decrease from Q2 2023 was primarily due to a non-recurring recovery of costs that were incurred in Q3 2022 that more than offset increases in information services and other professional fees.

(1) State income tax benefits are reflected in the total benefits for net income attributable to redeemable non-controlling interests and stock-based compensation plans activity.
(2) Net income attributable to redeemable non-controlling interest represents the portion of earnings held in the firm's consolidated investment products, which are not taxable to the firm despite being included in pre-tax income.

The firm's non-GAAP effective tax rate was 24.8% for Q3 2023, compared with 24.4% for Q3 2022. The Q3 2023 pre-tax income includes losses in certain foreign jurisdictions in which no associated tax benefit was recognized in the income tax provision.

The firm estimates that its effective tax rate for the full year 2023 will be in the range of 26% to 30%, on a U.S. GAAP basis, and 26.5% to 29.5%, on a non-GAAP basis.

Non-GAAP Information and Reconciliation

The firm believes the non-GAAP financial measures below provide relevant and meaningful information to investors about its core operating results. These measures have been established in order to increase transparency for the purpose of evaluating the firm's core business, for comparing current results with prior period results, and to enable more appropriate comparison with industry peers. However, non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be calculated differently by other companies.

(1)    These non-GAAP adjustments remove the impact of acquisition-related amortization and costs including amortization of intangible assets and acquired assets, the recurring fair value remeasurements of the contingent consideration liability, amortization of acquired investments and non-controlling interest basis differences, and amortization of compensation-related arrangements. Management believes adjusting for these charges helps the reader's ability to understand the firm's core operating results and to increase comparability period to period.

(2)    This non-GAAP adjustment removes acquisition-related transaction costs. Management believes adjusting for these charges helps the reader's ability to understand the firm's core operating results and to increase comparability period to period.

(3)    This non-GAAP adjustment removes the compensation expense impact from market valuation changes in the supplemental savings plan liability and the related net gains (losses) on investments designated as economic hedges against the related liability. Amounts deferred under the supplemental savings plan are adjusted for appreciation (depreciation) of hypothetical investments chosen by participants. The firm uses T. Rowe Price investment products to economically hedge the exposure to these market movements. Management believes it is useful to offset the non-operating investment income (loss) recognized on the economic hedges against the related compensation expense and remove the net impact to help the reader's ability to understand the firm's core operating results and to increase comparability period to period.

(4)    These non-GAAP adjustments remove the impact the consolidated sponsored investment products have on the firm's U.S. GAAP consolidated statements of income. Specifically, the firm adds back the operating expenses and subtracts the investment income of the consolidated sponsored investment products. The adjustment to operating expenses represents the operating expenses of the consolidated products, net of the elimination of related management and administrative fees. The adjustment to net income attributable to T. Rowe Price represents the net income of the consolidated products, net of redeemable non-controlling interests. Management believes the consolidated sponsored investment products may impact the reader’s ability to understand the firm's core operating results.

(5)    This non-GAAP adjustment represents the other non-operating income (loss) and the net gains (losses) earned on the firm's non-consolidated investment portfolio that are not designated as economic hedges of the supplemental savings plan liability and that are not part of the cash and discretionary investment portfolio. Management retains the investment gains recognized on the non-consolidated cash and discretionary investments as these assets and related income (loss) are considered part of the firm's core operations. Management believes adjusting for these non-operating income (loss) items helps the reader’s ability to understand the firm's core operating results and increases comparability to prior years. Additionally, management does not emphasize the impact of the portion of non-operating income (loss) removed when managing and evaluating the firm's performance.

(6)    The income tax impacts were calculated in order to achieve an overall year-to-date non-GAAP effective tax rate of 26.8% in 2023 and 24.2% in 2022. As such, the non-GAAP effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was 24.8% and 24.4%, respectively. The firm estimates that its effective tax rate for the full-year 2023 on a non-GAAP basis will be in the range of 26.5% to 29.5%.

(7)    This non-GAAP measure was calculated by applying the two-class method to adjusted net income attributable to T. Rowe Price Group divided by the weighted-average common shares outstanding assuming dilution. The calculation of adjusted net income allocated to common stockholders is as follows:
