Subject Line: Important Announcement from Jim Fox and Tom Sipp

Dear Envestnet Team,

Envestnet announced today that we have entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Bain Capital in a go-private transaction valued at $4.5 billion. Reverence Capital Partners also participated in the transaction along with our strategic partners/investors BlackRock, Fidelity Investments, Franklin Templeton, and State Street Global Advisors.

This is a tremendous validation of everything we have achieved together, becoming the leader in the wealth management industry, managing $6 trillion in assets, serving 109,000 advisors, and overseeing more than 20 million accounts. Bain Capital brings significant and highly differentiated advantages as a value-added partner in the financial technology sector. They understand our scale, differentiated product offering and will allow us to accelerate our next phase of growth.

In collaboration with the Envestnet leadership team, Bain Capital plans to support our growth strategy through organic and inorganic initiatives. As a private company, we will be able to invest in our technologies and solutions at levels that were not previously possible. This is a terrific win for Envestnet, our clients, our partners and for every employee.

Stay tuned for our Town Hall video call on the news, planned for later this morning, where you’ll have the opportunity to meet some of the Bain Capital partners. Envestnet is exceptionally well positioned to define the future of financial advice. Partnering with Bain Capital accelerates our strong momentum, extends our lead in the market, and will build on our scale and competitive advantage. Together, we will realize our vision to serve more advisors with more personalized, holistic financial advice.

Congratulations to everyone on the Envestnet team – there is much to celebrate!

Forward-Looking Statements

This communication contains, and the Company’s other filings and communications may contain forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements give the Company’s current expectations relating to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business including, without limitation, statements regarding the transaction and related transactions, the expected closing of the transaction and the timing thereof, and as to the financing commitments. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “plan,” “intend,” “believe,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “can have,” “likely” and other words and terms of similar meaning. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, the Company.

Because such statements are based on expectations as to future financial and operating results and are not statements of fact, actual results may differ materially from those projected and are subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, including: (i) the risk that the transaction may not be completed on the anticipated terms in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the Company’s business and the price of Envestnet’s common stock; (ii) the failure to satisfy any of the conditions to the consummation of the transaction, including the receipt of certain regulatory approvals and the approval of the Company’s stockholders; (iii) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance or condition that could give rise to the termination of the agreement, including in circumstances requiring the Company to pay a termination fee; (iv) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the transaction on the Company’s business relationships, operating results and business generally; (v) risks that the transaction disrupts the Company’s current plans and operations (including the ability of certain customers to terminate or amend contracts upon a change of control); (vi) the Company’s ability to retain, hire and integrate skilled personnel including the Company’s senior management team and maintain relationships with key business partners and customers, and others with whom it does business, in light of the transaction; (vii) risks related to diverting management’s attention from the Company’s ongoing business operations; (viii) unexpected costs, charges or expenses resulting from the transaction; (ix) the ability to obtain the necessary financing arrangements set forth in the commitment letters received in connection with the transaction; (x) potential litigation relating to the transaction that could be instituted against the parties to the agreement or their respective directors, managers or officers, the effects of any outcomes related thereto; (xi) the impact of adverse general and industry-specific economic and market conditions; (xii) certain restrictions during the pendency of the transaction that may impact the Company’s ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; (xiii) uncertainty as to timing of completion of the transaction; (xv) risks that the benefits of the transaction are not realized when and as expected; (xvi) legislative, regulatory and economic developments; (xvii) those risk and uncertainties set forth under the headings “Forward Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as such risk factors may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports filed by the Company with the SEC from time to time, which are available via the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov; and (xviii) those risks that will be described in the proxy statement that will be filed with the SEC and available from the sources indicated below.

The Company cautions you that the important factors referenced above may not contain all the factors that are important to you. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the transaction, will be more fully discussed in the proxy statement that will be filed with the SEC in connection with the transaction. There can be no assurance that the transaction will be completed, or if it is completed, that it will close within the anticipated time period. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included in this communication are made only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law. If one or more of these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, our actual results may vary materially from what we may have expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. We caution that you should not place significant weight on any of our forward-looking statements. You should specifically consider the factors identified in this communication that could cause actual results to differ. Furthermore, new risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict those events or how they may affect the Company.
