Review of Financial Results

Total revenues increased 12% to $32.6 million for the first quarter of 2012 from $29.3 million for the first quarter of 2011. The increase was primarily due to a 21% increase in revenues from assets under management or administration to $28.3 million from $23.3 million in the prior year period, partially offset by a previously expected reduction in licensing and professional services revenues.

Total operating expenses in the first quarter of 2012 increased 18% to $31.4 million from $26.7 million in the prior year period. Cost of revenues increased 14% to $11.5 million in the first quarter of 2012 from $10.1 million in the first quarter of 2011 due to the increase in revenue from AUM or AUA. Compensation and benefits increased 5% to $10.7 million in the first quarter of 2012 from $10.2 million in the prior year period. General and administration expenses increased 39% to $6.8 million in the first quarter of 2012 from $4.9 million in the prior year period.

Income from operations was $1.2 million for the first quarter of 2012 compared to $2.6 million for the first quarter of 2011. Net income was $0.7 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2012 compared to $1.4 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2011.

Adjusted EBITDA(1) in the first quarter of 2012 was $5.1 million, compared to $6.2 million in the prior year period, reflecting the previously expected reduction in licensing and professional services revenues. Adjusted Net Income(1) was $2.2 million, compared to $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2011. Adjusted Net Income Per Share(1) was $0.07 per diluted share, compared to $0.09 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2011.
