("Epoch" or the "Company"), a leading investment manager and investment adviser and the operating subsidiary of Epoch Holding Corporation (Nasdaq: EPHC), today announced that its assets under management ("AUM") increased 22 percent, or $970 million, to $5.38 billion as of March 31, 2007 from $4.41 billion as of December 31, 2006. "We believe our significant growth in assets under management this quarter reflects the growing acceptance among investors of our free cash flow investment approach as the appropriate methodology for valuing companies in today's investment environment," said William W. Priest, Chief Executive Officer of the Company. "We saw significant cash flows into our Global Equity Shareholder Yield strategy which is a direct application of finding global companies whose managements are committed to returning their free cash flow to shareholders in the form of high dividends, stock repurchases and debt reductions." "We received additional institutional mandates this quarter and we're also pleased to have announced two new significant sub-advisory relationships," added Priest. "Skandia Global Funds launched an offshore fund using our U.S. Large Cap Value service and John Hancock Funds launched an open-ended retail mutual fund employing our Global Equity Shareholder Yield service which they will distribute on an exclusive basis to the retail investment community." Priest concluded, "Also during the quarter, we continued our commitment to growing our professional staff by adding three talented and experienced investment professionals including: Janet Navon, Managing Director, Portfolio Management and Senior Analyst; Kenneth Hightower, Director, Quantitative Research and Risk Management; and Dina DiCenso, Senior Associate and Analyst."
