PITTSBURGH, Jan. 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Federated Hermes, Inc. (NYSE: FHI), a global leader in active, responsible investing, today reported earnings per diluted share (EPS) for Q4 2023 of $0.96, compared to $0.63 for the same quarter last year, on net income of $82.2 million for Q4 2023, compared to $56.5 million for Q4 2022.

"Federated Hermes' record assets at year-end were driven by another quarter of money market asset increases, as our liquidity products continued to provide a vital cash management resource for clients," said J.

"In addition, as they navigated market volatility, investors turned to a diverse range of our active management strategies-from our fundamentally based MDT equity strategies to high-yield fixed-income to unconstrained credit alternatives."

Financial Summary
Q4 2023 vs. Q4 2022
Revenue increased $17.6 million or 5% primarily due to an increase in revenue from higher average money market assets and an increase in total carried interest and performance fees of $6.4 million, including an increase of $2.5 million of carried interest from consolidated carried interest vehicles, which is offset in compensation expense. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in revenue from lower average equity assets.
During Q4 2023, Federated Hermes derived 50% of its revenue from money market assets, 49% from long-term assets (29% from equity assets, 12% from fixed-income assets and 8% from alternative/private markets and multi-asset) and 1% from sources other than managed assets.
Operating expenses decreased $21.2 million or 7% primarily due to an intangible asset impairment in Q4 2022.
Nonoperating income (expenses), net increased $3.3 million primarily due to an increase in investment yields due to rising interest rates.
Q4 2023 vs. Q3 2023
Revenue decreased $11.2 million or 3% primarily due to a decrease in revenue from lower average equity assets and a decrease in total carried interest and performance fees of $5.2 million, including a decrease of $5.5 million of carried interest from consolidated carried interest vehicles, which is offset in compensation expense. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in revenue from higher average money market assets.
Operating expenses decreased $12.3 million or 4% primarily due to decreased compensation expense from consolidated carried interest vehicles of $5.5 million and decreased incentive compensation.
Nonoperating income (expenses), net increased $15.2 million primarily due to an increase in the market value of investments in Q4 2023 compared to a decrease in Q3 2023.
2023 vs. 2022
Revenue increased $163.8 million or 11% primarily due to an increase in revenue from higher average money market assets, the elimination of voluntary fee waivers related to certain money market funds in order for those funds to maintain positive or zero net yields (voluntary yield-related fee waivers), and an increase in total carried interest and performance fees of $55.4 million, including $34.4 million of carried interest from consolidated carried interest vehicles, which is offset in compensation expense. For further information on the waivers, see "Impact of voluntary yield-related fee waivers" below. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in revenue due to lower average long-term assets.
During 2023, Federated Hermes derived 52% of its revenue from long-term assets (30% from equity assets, 12% from fixed-income assets and 10% from alternative/private markets and multi-asset), 47% from money market assets and 1% from sources other than managed assets.
Operating expenses increased by $113.0 million or 10% primarily due to increased distribution expenses predominantly from lower voluntary yield-related fee waivers, an increase in compensation expense primarily due to consolidated carried interest vehicles of $34.2 million and an increase in other expense due to fund reorganization costs. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in expense due to an intangible asset impairment in the prior year.
Nonoperating income (expenses), net increased $54.4 million primarily due to an increase in the market value of investments in 2023 compared to a decrease in the market value of investments in 2022 and an increase in investment yields due to rising interest rates.
Impact of voluntary yield-related fee waivers
There were no voluntary yield-related fee waivers during 2023. During 2022, voluntary yield-related fee waivers totaled $85.3 million . These fee waivers were largely offset by related reductions in distribution expenses of $66.5 million, such that the net negative pre-tax impact to Federated Hermes was $18.8 million for 2022.
Federated Hermes' level of business activity and financial results are dependent upon many factors, including market conditions, investment performance and investor behavior. These factors and others, including asset levels and mix, product sales and redemptions, market appreciation or depreciation, revenues, fee waivers, expenses and regulatory changes, can significantly impact Federated Hermes' business activity levels and financial results. Risk factors and uncertainties that can influence Federated Hermes' financial results are discussed in the company's annual and quarterly reports as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
