Epoch Announces 24% Increase in AUM to $9.8 Billion

NEW YORK-- (BUSINESS WIRE) – October 5, 2009 – Epoch Investment Partners, Inc. ("Epoch" or the "Company"), a leading investment manager and investment adviser and the sole operating subsidiary of Epoch Holding Corporation (Nasdaq: EPHC), today announced that its assets under management ("AUM") were approximately $9.8 billion as of September 30, 2009, an increase of 24% from $7.9 billion as of June 30, 2009.

“We are pleased to report another quarter of significant AUM growth,” said William W. Priest, Chief Executive Officer of the Company.  “Nearly half of the increase in AUM resulted from positive cash flows from current clients combined with the addition of two sizeable mandates from large institutions in Japan and the U.K. We continue to see strong interest in both our U.S. and global investment services from U.S. clients and institutions headquartered abroad. We continue to maintain our commitment to invest in our portfolio management, client service, and infrastructure teams to ensure our clients experience superior service at all touch points of the relationship.”

“Our strategy of focusing upon the generation of free cash flow as our principal investment metric, combined with the expectation that corporate managements of the firms we own will intelligently allocate those cash flows among cash dividends, share repurchases, debt paydowns, internal reinvestment options, and acquisitions, should continue to produce superior risk-adjusted investment returns for our clients.”

In addition to the quarterly AUM updates, the Company will commence posting monthly AUM updates on its website in early November.
