This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, which reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, future events, operations and financial performance. You can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking words such as “outlook,” “believes,” “expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “predicts,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “target” or the negative version of those words, other comparable words or other statements that do not relate to historical or factual matters. The forward-looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions and expectations of our future performance, taking into account all information currently available to us.

Segments
Our business is organized into two operating segments: Wealth Management and Strategic Alternatives. Described below are the segments and the revenue generated by each, which broadly fall into three categories: recurring management, advisory, or administration fees; performance or incentive fees; and transaction fees.
Wealth Management
Within our Wealth Management segment, services provided principally consist of investment management and advisory services, trusts and administrative services, and family office services. The wealth management client base includes high net worth individuals, families, single family offices, foundations, and endowments globally. Investment management or advisory fees are the primary source of revenue in our Wealth Management segment. These fees are generally calculated based on a percentage of the value of each client’s billable AUM or AUA (as applicable). As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, this segment had $53.5 billion and $51.0 billion, respectively, in AUM/AUA.
Investment Management and Advisory Services
In our investment management and advisory services teams, we diversify our clients’ portfolios across risk factors, geographies, traditional asset classes such as money markets, equities and fixed income, and alternative
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
asset classes including private equity, private debt, hedge funds, real estate, and other assets through highly experienced third-party managers.
Trusts and Administration Services
The trust and administration services that we provide include entity formation and management, creating or modifying trust instruments and/or administrative practices to meet beneficiary needs, full corporate, trustee-executor, and fiduciary services. We also offer provision of directors and company secretarial services, administering entity ownership of intellectual property rights, advice and administration services in connection with investments in marine and aviation assets, and administering entity ownership of fine art and collectibles.
FOS
Family office services are tailored outsourced family office solutions and administrative services which we provide primarily to our larger clients. These services include bookkeeping and back-office services, private foundation management and grantmaking, oversight of trust administration, financial tracking and reporting, cash flow management and bill pay, and other financial services.
Strategic Alternatives
Strategic alternatives services include the alternatives platform and public and private real estate (including co-investment) businesses.
Alternatives Platform
The alternatives platform embodies our legacy TIG business, which is an alternative asset manager and includes our TIG Arbitrage strategy and funds managed by our External Strategic Managers, predominantly for institutional investors. The TIG Arbitrage strategy is an event-driven strategy fund that earns management fees and incentive fees based on the performance of its underlying funds and accounts. The investment strategies of the External Strategic Managers include Real Estate Bridge Lending, European Equities and Asian Credit and Special Situations. Distributions are received from the External Strategic Managers through profit or revenue sharing arrangements that are generated through management and incentive fees based on the performance of the underlying investments. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, this platform had $7.5 billion and $7.6 billion, respectively, in AUM/AUA.
Co-Investment
Real estate co-investment oversees deal origination, documentation, and structuring from inception to exit for a variety of strategies, including development, income, value-add, and planning. Investors are typically HNWIs, single family offices, and institutional investors. Fees earned include private market, incentive fees, management and advisory fees, and placement and brokerage fees. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, our real estate co-investment platform had deployed more than $7.7 billion and $7.8 billion, respectively, of capital (inclusive of capital raised for our private real estate funds), of which approximately 14%, for both periods, has been invested by legacy Alvarium Shareholders and senior employees.
Real Estate - Public and Private
The real estate business includes fund management services as well as co-investment solutions. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, this business had approximately $10.0 billion and $12.7 billion, respectively, of AUM/AUA.
Fund Management
Our real estate fund management business manages two funds based in the United Kingdom, LXi, a publicly traded real estate investment trust, and HLIF, a private fund, however, we are in the process of exiting this
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
business. Fees from our real estate fund management business are earned from management and advisory services. On January 9, 2024, AlTi RE Public Markets Limited entered into heads of terms to sell 100% of the equity of LXi REIT Advisors Limited (“LRA”), the advisor to the publicly-traded fund LXi REIT plc (“LXi”), to LondonMetric Property Plc (“LondonMetric”) for fixed consideration of approximately $33.1 million and up to an estimated $5.1 million of contingent consideration based on the exchange rate as of the balance sheet date, as applicable. The contingent consideration meets the definition of a derivative and is recorded as Contingent consideration receivable on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of March 31, 2024. This contingent consideration will be remeasured at fair value at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, with changes in fair value recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in the period of change.
This disposal was completed on March 6, 2024. As a result, the Company recognized an intangible asset impairment charge of $23.5 million, which is recorded in Impairment loss on goodwill and intangible assets in the Consolidated Statement of Operations during the year ended December 31, 2023. In addition, as of December 31, 2023, the major classes of assets and liabilities of LRA were presented as held for sale in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. As of the three months ended March 31, 2024, a gain on disposal of $0.2 million was recognized in Gain (loss) on investments in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. See Note 3 (Business Combinations and Divestitures) for further information.
On February 26, 2024, AFM UK and SHIA served notice to terminate their contracts with HLIF. We are in discussions with a third-party manager to take over the management of HLIF and termination of these contracts will become effective once the transition process has completed.
Alvarium Home REIT Advisors Limited
Prior to the Business Combination, ARE, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Alvarium, entered into an agreement to sell 100% of the equity of AHRA, the investment advisor to the publicly-traded fund Home REIT, to a newly formed entity (“NewCo”) owned by the management of AHRA, for aggregate consideration approximately equal to $29 million. Consequently, AHRA has never been part of AlTi. The consideration comprised a promissory note maturing December 31, 2023, subject to extension if mutually agreed upon by the parties thereto. Additionally, ARE was granted a call option pursuant to which ARE had the right to repurchase AHRA prior to the repayment of the note for a purchase price equal to the note balance then outstanding thereunder.
Subsidiaries are companies over which a company has the power indirectly and/or directly to control the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits. In assessing control for accounting purposes, potential voting rights that are presently exercisable or convertible (including rights which may arise on the exercise of an option) are taken into account. With respect to the AHRA, the above arrangements resulted in AHRA continuing to be consolidated by AlTi after its legal disposal to NewCo. Due to this consolidation, after the Business Combination, an intangible asset was recognized related to the investment advisory agreement between AHRA and Home REIT.
AlTi was formed on January 3, 2023, through a business combination transaction that included certain legacy Alvarium companies. While the sale of AHRA occurred prior to the Business Combination, under GAAP, its results were required to be consolidated in our financial statements until June 30, 2023, when it was deconsolidated. On June 30, 2023, the Company entered into a series of agreements that resulted in the deconsolidation of AHRA from the Strategic Alternatives segment with immediate effect. The agreements removed ARE’s potential controlling voting rights in AHRA (previously ascertainable on the exercise of the option) and terminated other residual contractual relationships between AHRA and ARE. As a result, these agreements removed AlTi’s control of AHRA from an accounting perspective. AHRA’s results are included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the period from January 1, 2023 to June 30, 2023, and it was removed from the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of June 30, 2023. The deconsolidation resulted in an intangible asset impairment charge of $29.4 million, which was recorded in Impairment loss on goodwill and intangible assets in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
during the year ended December 31, 2023. Assets managed by AHRA, however, have been excluded from the Company’s AUM/AUA metrics since January 1, 2023.
(2)Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a)Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with U.S. GAAP and conform to prevailing practices within the financial services industry, as applicable to the Company, and should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements included in the Annual Report.on Form 10-K filed by the Company on March 22, 2024 (as amended by the Company on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on April 5, 2024, the “Annual Report”). The notes are an integral part of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been included and are of a normal and recurring nature.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period presentations and disclosures, while not required to be recast, may be reclassified to ensure comparability with current period classifications.
(b)Prior Period Immaterial Corrections
Following an analysis of quantitative and qualitative factors in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 99, Materiality, the Company concluded that the errors below were immaterial to the previously issued consolidated financial statements, and thus, no restatement of any of the Company’s previously issued financial statements is necessary. The Company revised the reported balances to correct for the immaterial errors accordingly.
During the second quarter reporting period in 2023, the Company identified and corrected an immaterial error concerning the classification of cash outflows associated with distributions due to former TIG members in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. In the Company’s previously filed Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2023, these cash outflows of $7.1 million were categorized under operating activities. In accordance with ASC 230-10, the Company determined that all cash flows related to distributions due to former TIG members should be classified under financing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. This item had no impact on the reported net change in cash for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The Company has revised its consolidated statements of cash flows for the period ended March 31, 2023 to present the distributions as noted above.
Additionally, during the current reporting period, the Company identified and corrected immaterial errors impacting the December 31, 2023 balances previously reported related to Accrued compensation and profit sharing, Goodwill, Accounts payable and accrued expenses and certain other balances reported within Other liabilities. These revisions resulted in an adjustment to the opening retained earnings balance for the current reporting period of $(3.0) million, a $4.2 million increase in Accrued compensation and profit sharing, a $0.3 million decrease in Goodwill, a $0.6 million increase in Other liabilities, and a $0.3 million increase in Accounts payable and accrued expenses. In conjunction with the prior period immaterial error correction, certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts between our Non-controlling interest in subsidiaries and Additional paid-in capital which relate to the TRA exchange of our Class B Units for shares of Class A Common Stock. These reclassifications resulted in an adjustment of $13.3 million and are reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Changes in
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Mezzanine Equity and Shareholders’ Equity. These prior period reclassifications have no impact on the Company’s cash flows, net income, or total shareholders’ equity.
(c)Reclassifications
Certain amounts as of March 31, 2024 have been reclassified in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Position due to presentation changes that occurred during the current period and are not comparable to the year ended December 31, 2023. The impact of these reclassifications include a $4.8 million reclass from Accounts payable and accrued expenses to Accrued compensation and profit sharing in addition to a $3.2 million reclass from Other liabilities to Accrued compensation and profit sharing.
(d)Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company. The most critical of these estimates are related to (i) the fair value of the investments included in the Billable Assets within AUM/AUA, as this impacts the amount of revenues the Company recognizes each period; (ii) the fair values of the Company’s investments and liabilities with respect to the TRA, and Earn-out Securities, as changes in these fair values have a direct impact on the Company’s consolidated net income (loss); (iii) the estimate of future taxable income, which impacts the realizability and carrying amount of the Company’s deferred income tax assets; (iv) the qualitative and quantitative assessments of whether impairments of equity method investments, carried interest vehicles, acquired intangible assets, and goodwill exist; and (v) the determination of whether to consolidate a variable interest entity (“VIE”); and (vi) fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, including assumptions with respect to future cash inflows and outflows, discount rates, assets’ useful lives, market multiples, the allocation of purchase price consideration in the business combination valuation of acquired assets and liabilities, the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, goodwill impairment testing, assumptions used to calculate equity-based compensation, and the realization of deferred tax assets. Inherent in such estimates are judgements relating to future cash flows, which include the Company’s interpretation of current economic indicators and market valuations, and assumptions about the Company’s strategic plans with regard to its operations. While management believes that the estimates utilized in preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements are reasonable and prudent, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
(e)Consolidation
The Company consolidates those entities in which it has a direct or indirect controlling financial interest based on either a variable interest model or voting interest model. The Company determines whether an entity should be consolidated by first evaluating whether it holds a variable interest in the entity. Entities that are not VIEs are further evaluated for consolidation under the voting interest model (“VOE” model).
An entity is considered to be a VIE if any of the following conditions exist: (a) the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, (b) the holders of equity investment at risk, as a group, lack either the direct or indirect ability through voting rights or similar rights to make decisions that have a significant effect on the success of the entity or the obligation to absorb the expected losses or right to receive the expected residual returns, or (c) the voting rights of some equity investors are disproportionate to their obligation to absorb losses of the entity, their rights to receive returns from an entity, or both and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with disproportionately few voting rights.
Fees that are customary and commensurate with the level of services provided by the Company, and where the Company does not hold other economic interests in the entity that would absorb more than an
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
insignificant amount of the expected losses or returns of the entity, are not considered a variable interest. The Company factors in all economic interests, including proportionate interests through related parties, to determine if fees are considered a variable interest. Where the Company’s interests in funds are primarily management fees and insignificant direct or indirect equity interests through related parties, the Company is not considered to have a variable interest in such entities.
The Company consolidates all VIEs for which it is the primary beneficiary. An entity is determined to be the primary beneficiary if it holds a controlling financial interest, which is defined as having (a) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (b) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company does not consolidate any of the products it manages as it does not hold any direct or indirect interests in such entities that could expose the Company to an obligation to absorb losses of an entity or the right to receive benefits from an entity that could potentially be significant to such entities.
The Company determines whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE at the time it becomes involved with a VIE and continuously reconsiders that conclusion. In evaluating whether the Company is the primary beneficiary, the Company evaluates its direct and indirect economic interests in the entity. The consolidation analysis is generally performed qualitatively, however, if the primary beneficiary is not readily determinable, a quantitative analysis may also be performed. This analysis requires judgment, including: (1) determining whether the equity investment at risk is sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, (2) evaluating whether the equity holders, as a group, can make decisions that have a significant effect on the success of the entity, (3) determining whether two or more parties’ equity interests should be aggregated, (4) determining whether the equity investors have proportionate voting rights to their obligations to absorb losses or rights to receive returns from an entity and (5) evaluating the nature of relationships and activities of the parties involved in determining which party within a related-party group is most closely associated with a VIE and therefore would be deemed the primary beneficiary.
Under the voting interest model, the Company consolidates those entities it controls through a majority voting interest. The Company will generally not consolidate those voting interest entities where a single investor or simple majority of third-party investors with equity have the ability to exercise substantive kick-out or participation rights.
(f)Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized when the Company transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. A five-step framework is utilized that requires an entity to: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, which includes assessing the collectability of the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for the goods or services transferred to the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligation in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
Management/Advisory Fees
Revenues from contracts with customers consist of investment management, trustee, and custody fees. The Company recognizes revenue at the time of transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue recognized is calculated based on contractual terms, including the transaction price, whether a distinct performance obligation has been satisfied
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
and control is transferred to the customer, and when collection of the revenue is assessed as probable.
Investment management, trustee and custody fees are recognized over the period in which the investment management services are performed, using a time-based output method to measure progress. The amount of revenue varies from one reporting period to another as levels of AUA change (from inflows, outflows, and market movements) and the number of days in the reporting period change.
For services provided to each client account, the Company charges an investment management fee, inclusive of custody and/or trustee fees, based on the fair value of the AUA of such account representing a single performance obligation. For assets for which valuations are not available on a daily basis, the most recent valuation provided to the Company is used as the fair value for the purpose of calculating the quarterly fee. In certain circumstances, fixed fees are charged to customers on a monthly basis. The nature of the Company’s performance obligation is to provide a series of distinct services in which the customer receives the benefits of the services over time. The Company’s performance obligation is satisfied at the end of each month or quarter, as applicable to the contract with the customer.
Fees are charged on a mixture of methodologies that include quarterly in arrears based upon the market value at the end of the quarter, quarterly based on the average daily balance, or monthly. Receivable balances from contracts with customers are included in the fees receivable line in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
Our FOS business is also included in the Management/advisory fees line item. FOS fees are generally structured to reflect an annual agreed upon fee or they can be structured on a project/time-based fee. FOS fees are typically billed quarterly in arrears. We also generate FOS project/time-based fees arising from accounting, administration fees, set up, the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”), and other non-investment advisory services.
Incentive Fees
The Company is entitled to incentive fees if targeted returns have been achieved in accordance with customer contracts. Incentive fees are calculated using a percentage of net profit from the amount the customers earn. Incentive fees are variable consideration that is generally calculated as applicable to the contract with the customer. We recognize our incentive fees when it is no longer probable that a significant reversal of revenue will occur. Our incentive fees are not subject to clawback provisions.
Other Fees/Income
The Company generates arrangement fees in its co-investment division by arranging private debt or equity financing, generally in connection with an acquisition or an investment. Arrangement fees are typically 50 to 100 basis points of equity value contributed into a transaction, and are payable upon closing of the transaction. Acquisition fees are typically payable where there are no agency fees or where there is an off-market transaction sourced by the team. Such acquisition fees are usually in the range of 50 to 100 basis points of the purchase price of the relevant acquisition. The equity structures are long-term (five to ten years) closed-ended structures with fees normally ranging between 50 and 175 basis points of the equity value committed or drawn. The debt structure terms are generally between 12 and 36 months. The investment adviser, general partner or
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
other entity entitled to fees in respect of each of our co-investments receives such fees either monthly, quarterly or annually.
(g)Distributions from Investments
The Company has equity interests in three entities pursuant to which it is entitled to distributions based on the terms of the respective arrangements. Distributions from each investment will be recorded upon receipt of the distribution. These distributions are recurring under investment agreements and are structured as either a profit or revenue share of the investment’s management and incentive fees.
(h)Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of cash and money market funds. Cash balances maintained by consolidated VIEs are not considered legally restricted and are included in cash and cash equivalents on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
Cash was held across our U.S. and international markets. A majority of cash in the U.S. was held in checking accounts within the credit facility bank group, including at a major global financial institution which management believes is creditworthy.
(i)Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents
Restricted cash and cash equivalents consist of balances that are restricted as to withdrawal or usage.
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, restricted cash and cash equivalents amounted to $4.2 million and $5.4 million, and are included in the line item Cash and cash equivalents on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, respectively. These amounts represent the level of liquidity to be maintained by Company’s certain subsidiaries to meet regulatory requirements. Failing to meet the requirement could lead to censure, fines and ultimately a loss of license.
(j)Compensation and Employee Benefits
Cash-Based Compensation
Compensation and benefits consist of salaries, bonuses, commissions, benefits and payroll taxes. Compensation is accrued over the related service period.
Equity-Based Compensation
Equity-based compensation awards are reviewed to determine whether such awards are equity-classified or liability-classified. Compensation expense related to equity-classified awards is equal to their grant-date fair value and generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the awards’ requisite service period. When certain settlement features require an award to be liability-classified, compensation expense is recognized over the service period, and such amount is adjusted at each statement of financial position date through the settlement date to the then current fair value of such award.
The Company recognizes equity-based award forfeitures in the period they occur as a reversal of previously recognized compensation expense. The reduction in compensation expense is determined based on the specific awards forfeited during that period. Furthermore, the Company recognizes all excess tax benefits and deficiencies as income tax benefit or expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(k)Foreign Currency and Transactions
The Company has multiple functional currencies across various consolidated entities. All functional currencies that are not the U.S. dollar are converted upon consolidation at the reporting date. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are remeasured into U.S. dollars at the closing rates of exchange on the date of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are remeasured into U.S. dollars using the historical exchange rate. The profit or loss arising from foreign currency transactions is remeasured using the rate in effect on the date of the relevant transaction. Gains and losses on transactions denominated in foreign currencies due to changes in exchange rates are recorded within Foreign currency translation adjustments. Gains and losses on certain financing transactions which the Company intends to repay in the foreseeable future are recorded in net income.
(l)Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the condensed consolidated financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and are measured using the enacted tax rates that are expected to be in effect when the differences reverse. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount that, in the opinion of management, is more likely than not to be realized, meaning the likelihood of realization is greater than 50%.
The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions by reporting a liability for unrecognizable tax benefits resulting from uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.
(m)Other Assets, Net and Other Liabilities, Net
Other assets, net include prepaid expenses, miscellaneous receivables, current income taxes receivable, fixed assets, and software licenses. The Company amortizes assets over their respective useful lives, as applicable.
Other liabilities, net include the AlTi Wealth Management (Switzerland) SA, formerly known as Alvarium Investment Managers (Suisse) SA, (“AWMS”) deferred cash consideration (see Note 3 (Business Combinations and Divestitures)), accrued payroll and payroll related taxes, accrued legal fees, and corporate taxes payable, among other miscellaneous payables.
(n)Investments
Investments in Debt Securities. The Company classifies debt investments as held-to-maturity or trading based on the Company’s intent and ability to hold the debt security to maturity or its intent to sell the security. The Company does not have any held-to-maturity debt investments.
Trading securities are those investments that are purchased principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term. Trading securities are carried at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position with changes in fair value recorded in Loss on investments on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Investments in Equity Securities. Equity securities are generally carried at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position in accordance with ASC 321, Investments – Equity
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Securities. Changes in fair value are recorded in Loss on investments on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Equity Method. The Company applies the equity method of accounting for equity investments where the Company does not consolidate the investee but can exert significant influence over the financial and operating policies of the investee. The evaluation of whether the Company exerts control or significant influence over the financial and operational policies of its investees is based on the facts and circumstances surrounding each individual investment. The Company’s share of the investee’s underlying net income or loss is recorded as Loss on investments within current period earnings. The Company’s share of net income of the investee is recorded based upon the most current information available at the time, which may precede the date of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Due to the nature and size of its investees, the Company has adopted a lag in reporting for certain equity method investees for which the Company cannot reliably obtain financial information on a regular basis. Distributions received reduce the Company’s carrying value of the investee and the cost basis if deemed to be a return of capital. For certain investments, the Company may apply the alternative fair value option to the investment at initial measurement. The fair value measurement of investments in which the fair value option is elected will be measured in accordance with ASC 825.
For equity method investments and nonmarketable investments, impairment evaluation considers qualitative factors, including the financial conditions and specific events related to an investee, which may indicate the fair value of the investment is less than the carrying value. For held-to-maturity investments, impairment is evaluated using market values, when available, or the expected cash flows of the investment. These losses in value may be considered other than temporary impairment losses.
(o)Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception of the arrangement and primarily enters into operating leases, as the lessee, for office space. The Company accounts for its leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases, and recognizes a lease liability and right-of-use asset in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position for contracts that it determines are leases or contain a lease. The Company evaluates leases at their inception to determine if they are to be accounted for as an operating lease or a finance lease. A lease is accounted for as a finance lease if it meets one of the following five criteria: (i) the lease has a purchase option that is reasonably certain of being exercised, (ii) the present value of the future cash flows is substantially all of the fair market value of the underlying asset, (iii) the lease term is for a significant portion of the remaining economic life of the underlying asset, (iv) the title to the underlying asset transfers at the end of the lease term, or (v) if the underlying asset is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no alternative uses to the lessor at the end of the term. Leases that do not meet the finance lease criteria are accounted for as an operating lease. At the inception of a finance lease, an asset and finance lease obligation are recorded at an amount equal to the lesser of the present value of the minimum lease payments and the property’s fair market value. Finance lease obligations are classified as either current or long-term based on the due dates of future lease payments, net of interest. The Company’s lease portfolio primarily consists of operating leases for office space in various countries around the world. The Company also has operating leases for office equipment and vehicles, which are not significant. The Company does not separate non-lease components from lease components for its office space and equipment operating leases and instead accounts for each separate lease component and its associated non-lease component as a single lease component. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the leases. The Company’s right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease right-of-use assets include initial direct costs incurred by the Company and are presented net of deferred rent and lease incentives. Absent an implicit interest rate in the lease, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate, adjusted for the effects of collateralization, based on the information available at commencement in determining the present value of lease payments.
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise those options. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease right-of-use assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.
The Company does not recognize a lease liability or right-of-use asset on the balance for short-term leases. Instead, the Company recognizes short-term lease payments as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. A short-term lease is defined as a lease that, at the commencement date, has a lease term of 12 months or less and does not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise. When determining whether a lease qualifies as a short-term lease, the Company evaluates the lease term and the purchase option in the same manner as all other leases.
(p)Intangible Assets Other Than Goodwill, Net
The Company recognized certain finite-lived intangible assets as a result of the Business Combination. The Company’s finite-lived intangible assets consist of Trade Names, Customer Relationships, Investment Management Agreements, and Backlog. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.
The Company tests finite-lived intangible assets for impairment if certain events occur or circumstances change indicating that the carrying amount of the intangible asset may not be recoverable. The Company evaluates impairment by comparing the estimated fair value attributable to the intangible asset with its carrying amount. If an impairment exists, the Company adjusts the carrying value to equal the fair value by taking a charge through earnings.
The Company also recognized certain indefinite-lived intangible assets as a result of the Business Combination consisting of certain investment management agreements. These indefinite-lived intangibles are not subject to amortization, but are evaluated for impairment at least annually. In assessing its indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment, the Company has the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether events or circumstances exist that lead to a determination that it is unlikely that the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount. If the Company determines that it is unlikely that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount, the Company is not required to perform any additional tests in assessing the asset for impairment. However, if the Company concludes otherwise or elects not to perform the qualitative assessment, then it is required to perform a quantitative analysis to determine if the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying value. If through this quantitative analysis the Company determines the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its carrying amount, the indefinite-lived intangible asset is considered not to be impaired. If the Company concludes that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the indefinite-lived intangible asset’s fair value.
There were no indicators of impairment, and no impairment charges were recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2023, the Company recognized intangible asset impairment charges of $52.9 million. See Note 10 (Intangible assets, net) for further detail.
(q)Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price in a business combination over the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. Under ASC 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other, goodwill is not amortized, but rather is subject to an annual impairment test. Goodwill represents the excess of consideration over identifiable net assets of an acquired business. Goodwill is allocated at a reporting unit level. The Company has two reporting units, Strategic
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Alternatives and Wealth Management, and tests goodwill annually for impairment at each reporting unit. If, after assessing qualitative factors, the Company believes that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the reporting unit inclusive of goodwill is less than its carrying amount, the Company will perform a quantitative assessment to determine whether an impairment exists. If an impairment exists, the Company adjusts the carrying value of goodwill so that the carrying value of the reporting unit is equal to its fair value by taking a charge through earnings. The Company also tests goodwill for impairment in other periods if an event occurs or circumstances change such that it is more-likely-than-not to reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount. The Company concluded that the estimated fair value of the Strategic Alternatives and Wealth Management reporting units were greater than their carrying values, and as such, no impairment charges were required for the three months ended March 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2023, the Company recognized goodwill impairment charges of $(153.9) million for the Strategic Alternatives segment and no goodwill impairment charges for the Wealth Management segment. See Note 13 (Goodwill, net).
(r)Fixed Assets, Net
Fixed assets are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization, and are included in the “Other assets” line item in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Fixed assets are depreciated or amortized on a straight-line basis, with the corresponding depreciation and amortization expense included within general, administrative and other expenses in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The estimated useful life for leasehold improvements is the lesser of the remaining lease term and the life of the asset, while other fixed assets are generally depreciated over a period of two to seven years. Fixed assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
(s)Debt Obligations, Net
The Company’s debt obligations are recorded at amortized cost, net of any debt issuance costs, discounts and premiums. Debt issuances costs are deferred and along with discounts and premiums are amortized to interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations over the life of the related debt instrument using the effective interest method. Unamortized debt issuance costs, discounts and premiums are written off to net losses on retirement of debt in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations when the Company prepays borrowings prior to maturity.
(t)Tax Receivable Agreement
The TRA liability represents amounts payable to certain pre-Business Combination equity holders of the Company. The portion of the TRA liability related to the Business Combination is deemed contingent consideration payable to the previous owners and is carried at fair value, with changes in fair value reported within Gain (loss) on TRA in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Future exchanges of Class B Units for shares of Class A Common Stock may increase the TRA liability. Those increases will be carried at a value equal to the expected future payments due under the TRA. On August 31, 2023, holders of shares of Class B Common Stock exchanged 1,813,248 Class B Paired Interests with the Company, in exchange for shares of Class A Common Stock on a 1:1 basis totaling an amount equal to $7.31 multiplied by the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock received at the time of the transaction. On March 11, 2024, holders of Class B Common Stock exchanged 4,954,518 Class B Paired Interests with the Company, in exchange for shares of Class A Common Stock on a 1:1 basis totaling an amount equal to $6.61 multiplied by the total number of shares of Class B Common Stock exchanged at the time of the transaction. For future increases due to exchanges, the Company will record an initial estimate of future payments under the TRA portion as a decrease to additional paid-in capital in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Subsequent adjustments to the liability for future payments under the TRA related to changes in estimated future tax rates or state income tax
AlTi Global, Inc.

apportionment are recognized through current period earnings in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
(u)Warrant Liabilities
The Company evaluated the Warrants issued in connection with the January 3, 2023 business combination in accordance with ASC 815-40 and concluded that a provision in the warrant agreement related to certain tender or exchange offers precludes the Warrants from being accounted for as components of equity. As the Warrants meet the definition of a derivative, the Warrants are recorded as derivative liabilities on the balance sheet and measured at fair value at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, with changes in fair value recognized in Loss on warrant liability in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in the period of change. Prior to the Business Combination the Sponsor held private warrants that were contributed to the Company and legally cancelled. The contribution and cancellation of these warrants resulted in derecognition of the private warrants and accounted for in additional paid in capital as of January 1, 2023. The Company subsequently issued new warrants with terms identical to those of the public warrants to the Target Companies’ selling shareholders classified as derivative liabilities. On June 7, 2023, the Company closed an offer and consent solicitation and entered into a warrant amendment, pursuant to which the remaining Warrants were exchanged. In total, the Warrants were exchanged for approximately 4,962,221 shares of Class A Common Stock. See Note 1 (Description of the Business). Following the exchange, none of the Warrants remained outstanding as of December 31, 2023.
On March 27, 2024, the Company completed the issuance of Constellation Warrants to purchase 1,533,333 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock. The Company evaluated the Constellation Warrants in accordance with ASC 815-40 and determined that a provision in the agreement related to a change of control adjustment would preclude equity classification as the Constellation Warrants would no longer be a fixed-for-fixed option. The Constellation Warrants meet the definition of a derivative and are recorded as a derivative liability on the balance sheet and measured at fair value at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, with any changes in fair value to be recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations in the period of change. As of March 31, 2024, none of the Constellation Warrants have been exercised.
(v)Business Combination Earn-out Liability
The Business Combination Earn-out Securities, comprised of 3.3 million Class A Shares, 7.1 million shares of Class B Common Stock, and 7.1 million Class B Units (one Class B share and one Class B Unit comprising a Paired Interest, as described in Note 3 (Business Combination)), are payable to the Sponsor and the selling shareholders of TWMH, TIG, and Alvarium upon the achievement of certain vesting conditions in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement. Upon the Company’s Class A Share price meeting a volume-weighted average price threshold of $12.50 for 20 out of 30 trading days within five years of the Closing, fifty percent of the Business Combination Earn-out Securities will vest and be issued in settlement of the Business Combination Earn-out Liability (or, in the case of the Sponsor, which shares have already been issued, will no longer be subject to forfeiture). Upon the Company’s Class A Share price meeting a volume-weighted average price threshold of $15.00 for 20 out of 30 trading days within five years of the Closing, the remaining fifty percent of the Business Combination Earn-out Securities will vest and be issued. If, within five years of the Closing, a change of control event occurs (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), any Business Combination Earn-out Securities not previously issued will be deemed to have vested and will be issued (or, in the case of the Sponsor, which shares have already been issued, will no longer be subject to forfeiture). The Company evaluated the terms of the Business Combination earn-out agreement in accordance with ASC 815-40 and concluded that the Business Combination Earn-out Securities are precluded from being accounted for as a component of equity. Since the Business Combination earn-out agreement meets the definition of a derivative, the Business Combination Earn-out Securities are recorded in Earn-out liability, at fair value, as a derivative liability on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
measured at fair value at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, with changes in fair value recognized in Gain (loss) on earn-out liability in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and in Fair value of earn-out liability in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows in the period of change.
(w)AWMS Earn-out Liability
On August 2, 2023, (the “AWMS Acquisition Date”), the Company acquired the remaining 70% of the issued and outstanding ownership and membership interests of AWMS, increasing its interest from 30% to 100% (the “AWMS Acquisition”). The AWMS Acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and the fair value of the total purchase consideration transferred was $16.8 million. The total purchase consideration transferred consists of cash consideration, equity consideration, deferred cash consideration, earn-out consideration (“AWMS earn-out liability”), and the payment of assumed liabilities. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the AWMS earn-out liability of $1.1 million and $1.1 million, is reported in Earn-out liability, at fair value, in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, respectively. Since the AWMS earn-out liability meets the definition of a derivative, it is recorded at fair value as a derivative liability on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and measured at fair value at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, with changes in fair value to be recognized in Gain (loss) on earn-out liability in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and in Fair value of earn-out liability in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows in the period of change. See Note 3 (Business Combinations and Divestiture) for further information.
(x)Delayed Share Purchase Agreement
Prior to the Business Combination, TWMH entered into an agreement to purchase a remaining non-controlling interest in its consolidated subsidiary representing 51.1% of shares in TIH. This arrangement was agreed upon for consideration of $2.1 million in cash and $1.2 million in Class A Common Stock. On March 25, 2024, the TIH SPA was fully paid. As of December 31, 2023, the Delayed share purchase agreement liability was $1.8 million and the portion of the Delayed share purchase agreement reported in Accrued compensation and profit sharing was $0.3 million. The stock purchase price was recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as additional paid-in capital. As of December 31, 2023, the portion of the delayed share purchase agreement reported in Additional paid-in capital was $1.2 million.
(y)Non-controlling Interests
Non-controlling interests in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries are identified separately from the Company’s equity. Non-controlling interests consist of the amount of those interests at the date of the original Business Combination and the minority’s share of changes in equity since the date of the Business Combination. The proportions of profit and loss and changes in equity allocated to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests are determined on the basis of existing ownership interests.
(z)Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company accounts for derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, which requires the Company to recognize all derivative instruments on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as either assets or liabilities and to measure them at fair value each reporting period unless they qualify for a normal purchases and normal sales exception. Normal purchases and normal sales contracts are those that provide for the purchase or sale of something other than a financial instrument or derivative instrument that will be delivered in quantities expected to be used or sold by a reporting entity over a reasonable period in the normal course of business.
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
In connection with the LXi disposal, the Company determined the contingent consideration meets the definition of a derivative and is recorded as Contingent consideration receivable on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of March 31, 2024. The Contingent consideration receivable will be remeasured at fair value at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, with changes in fair value recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in the period of change.
(aa)Segment Reporting

The Company holds investments in common stock, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds, and exchange-traded notes, which represent investments in equity and debt securities. The Company earns realized and unrealized gains and losses which depend on investment performance. Changes in fair value of these investments are recorded in Loss on investments in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The Company holds interests in various affiliated limited partnerships and limited liability companies, whose purpose is to achieve capital appreciation through investments in financial instruments and investment vehicles.

The equity method investments are in various fund complexes, including funds focused on infrastructure and utilities, high income yields, and multi-strategy, among others. Changes in fair value of these investments are recorded in Loss on investments in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
(ae)Held for Sale Accounting
In circumstances when the Company is evaluating its components, we may establish plans that require us to evaluate whether a component qualifies for held-for-sale accounting under ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment. If a sale is deemed probable within a twelve-month period, the component is classified to either the assets held for sale or liabilities held for sale line items on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. The disposal group will be measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Any long-lived assets shall not be depreciated or amortized while classified as held for sale. On November 6, 2023, the Company entered into an agreement to sell FOS for a cash consideration of approximately $20.1 million. On March 6, 2024, the Company completed the sale of LRA, for fixed consideration of approximately $33.1 million and up to an estimated $5.1 million of contingent consideration. Assets and liabilities of FOS and LRA are presented as held for sale on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of March 31, 2024 and on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of December 31, 2023.
(af)Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards. The amendments in this update improve US GAAP by adding an illustrative example that demonstrates how an entity should apply the scope guidance in paragraph 718-10-15-3 to determine whether a profits interest award should be accounted for in accordance with Topic 718. The amendments in paragraph 718-10-15-3 improve its overall clarity and operability without changing the guidance. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the impact of this guidance to be material to its consolidated financial statements.
The Company has considered all newly issued accounting guidance that is applicable to its operations and the preparation of its unaudited condensed consolidated statements, including those it has not yet adopted. ASUs not listed above were assessed and either determined to be not applicable or expected to have minimal impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

(3)Business Combinations and Divestitures
AlTi Global Business Combination
On January 3, 2023, the Company entered into the Business Combination described in Note 1 (Description of the Business). The primary purpose of the Business Combination was to combine established high-growth companies that can benefit from access to capital and public markets and continue value-creation by management.
The Business Combination is a forward merger and is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. The Company is the accounting acquirer and Umbrella, including the Target Companies, is the accounting acquiree. The Company has been determined to be the accounting acquirer because Umbrella meets the definition of a VIE, and the Company is the primary beneficiary of Umbrella. ASC 805 requires the primary beneficiary of a VIE to be identified as the accounting acquirer. The Company is the primary beneficiary because it controls all activities of Umbrella, and the non-managing members of Umbrella do not have substantive kick-out or participating rights.
The Business Combination met the requirements to be considered a business combination under ASC 805. The assets and liabilities acquired from the Target Companies, affected for adjustments to reflect fair market values assigned to assets purchased and liabilities assumed, and results of operations, are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The Company has allocated the purchase price to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets based on their estimated fair market values at the acquisition date as required under ASC 805. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets was recorded as goodwill and is deductible for tax purposes.
The Business Combination resulted in the Company acquiring 51% of the equity interests of Umbrella which holds 100% of the equity interests of Alvarium, TWMH, and TIG. The remainder of Umbrella is held by the historical equity holders of TWMH and TIG through their ownership of Class B Units, which are presented as non-controlling interest on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
As a result of the Business Combination, Umbrella, which represents substantially all of the economic activity of the Company, became a subsidiary of the Company. Since the Company is the sole managing member of Umbrella following the Business Combination, the Class B Units held by the former equity holders of TWMH and TIG are classified as non-controlling interests in the Company’s financial statements. An allocation of net income or loss representing the percentage of ownership of Umbrella not controlled by the Company will be attributed to the non-controlling interests in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Each Class B Unit of Umbrella is paired with a share of Class B Common Stock (collectively, the “Paired Interests”). Pursuant to the Umbrella LLC Agreement, a Paired Interest is exchangeable at any time after the lock-up period for a share of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends and reclassifications. As the holder exchanges the Paired Interests pursuant to the Umbrella LLC Agreement, the shares of Class B Common Stock included in the Paired Interests will automatically be canceled and the Class B Common Units included in the Paired Interests shall be automatically transferred to the Company and converted into and become an equal number of Class A Common Units in Umbrella. Alternatively, if approved by the disinterested members of the board of directors of the Company, such Class B Common Stock can be settled in cash funded from the proceeds of a private sale or a public offering of Class A Common Stock.
The Sponsor, in connection with the Business Combination, purchased 8,625,000 shares of Class B Common Stock (the “Founder Shares”) for $25,000 (approximately $0.03 per share). These shares had no value until the Business Combination completed. At this point, the Founder Shares automatically converted into Class A Common Stock. This conversion was solely contingent upon the completion of the Business Combination and
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
did not include any future service requirements. As such, this cost of 8,625,000 shares at $10.33 per share for $89.1 million will be presented “on the line” and is not reflected in the financial statements presented. “On the line” describes those expenses triggered by the consummation of a business combination that are not recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations as they are not directly attributable to either period but instead were contingent on the Business Combination.
As part of the Business Combination, the Company incurred $17.8 million of acquisition-related costs during the three months ended March 31, 2023 which are included predominantly in the “Professional fees” line in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. In addition, the Company incurred $4.6 million of debt issuance costs related to debt issued to finance the Business Combination. Of the total debt issuance costs, $1.8 million is related to the Term Loan and drawn amount of the Revolver and is recorded as an offset to the “Debt, net of unamortized deferred financing cost” line item of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. $2.8 million of the debt issuance costs related to the undrawn amount of the Revolver were recorded in the “Other assets” line item of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
The Business Combination was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, and the fair value of the total purchase consideration transferred was $1,071.1 million. Included in total purchase consideration is contingent consideration of $85.1 million, which is payable to the selling shareholders upon achievement of certain volume-weighted average price targets for the shares of Class A Common Stock or upon a change of control of the Company occurring between the Closing Date and the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date. The contingent consideration was measured at fair value at the acquisition date and recorded as a liability in the Earn-out liability line of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

Acquisition of AlTi Wealth Management (Switzerland) SA
On August 2, 2023, (the “AWMS Acquisition Date”), the Company acquired the remaining 70% of the issued and outstanding ownership and membership interests of AWMS, increasing its interest from 30% to 100% (the “AWMS Acquisition”).
The AWMS Acquisition met the requirements to be considered a business combination under ASC 805. The assets and liabilities acquired from AWMS, affected for preliminary adjustments to reflect the fair market values assigned to assets purchased and liabilities assumed, and results of operations, are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements from the AWMS Acquisition Date. The Company has allocated the purchase price to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair market values at the AWMS Acquisition Date as required under ASC 805.
The AWMS Acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and the fair value of the total purchase consideration transferred was $16.8 million. The total purchase consideration transferred consists of cash consideration, equity consideration, deferred cash consideration, earn-out consideration, and the payment of assumed liabilities. The total purchase consideration consists of the following amounts:
| | | | | |
(Dollars in Thousands) | AWMS Amount |
Initial Cash consideration | $ | 5,711 | |
Equity consideration | 1,459 | |
Deferred cash consideration | 6,695 | |
Earn-out consideration | 2,721 | |
Payment of assumed liabilities | 168 | |
Total purchase consideration transferred | $ | 16,754 | |
The deferred cash consideration is payable no later than September 30, 2024 and the earn-out consideration is payable no later than December 31, 2024.
At the AWMS Acquisition Date, as required by ASC 805, the Company’s existing 30% equity interest in AWMS, which was previously recognized as an equity method investment, was revalued to reflect the fair value at this date. The fair value of this existing equity method investment was $7.4 million, which was calculated as 30% of the fair value of AWMS total equity value (determined using the discounted cash flow method of the income approach, less debt), excluding the impact of any synergies or control premium that would be realized by a controlling interest. This change in fair value resulted in a gain of $1.9 million, which was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2023 in the Gain (loss) on investments line of the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The Company incurred $0.01 million of direct acquisition-related expenses, which are recognized in the Professional fees line item of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Deconsolidation of Alvarium Home REIT Advisors Ltd
AlTi was formed on January 3, 2023, through a business combination transaction that included certain legacy Alvarium companies. While the sale of AHRA occurred prior to the Business Combination, under GAAP, its results were required to be consolidated in our financial statements until June 30, 2023, when it was deconsolidated. On June 30, 2023, the Company entered into a series of agreements that resulted in the deconsolidation of AHRA from the Strategic Alternatives segment with immediate effect. The agreements removed ARE’s potential controlling voting rights in AHRA (previously ascertainable on the exercise of the option), and terminated other residual contractual relationships between AHRA and ARE. As a result, these agreements removed AlTi’s control of AHRA from an accounting perspective. AHRA’s results are included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the period from January 3, 2023 to June 30, 2023, and its accounts were removed from the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of June 30, 2023. The deconsolidation resulted in an intangible asset impairment charge of $29.4 million, which was recorded in Impairment loss on goodwill and intangible assets in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations during the year ended December 31, 2023. Assets managed by AHRA, however, have been excluded from the Company’s AUM/AUA metrics since January 1, 2023.
Disposal of LRA
On January 9, 2024, AlTi RE Public Markets Limited entered into heads of terms to sell 100% of the equity of LRA, the advisor to the publicly-traded fund LXi, to LondonMetric for fixed consideration of approximately $33.1 million and up to an estimated $5.1 million of contingent consideration based on the exchange rate as of the balance sheet date, as applicable. The contingent consideration meets the definition of a derivative and is recorded as Contingent consideration receivable on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of March 31, 2024. This contingent consideration will be remeasured at fair value at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, with changes in fair value recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in the period of change.
The disposal was completed on March 6, 2024. As a result, the Company has recognized an intangible asset impairment charge of $23.5 million, which is recorded in Impairment loss on goodwill and intangible assets in the Consolidated Statement of Operations during the year ended December 31, 2023. In addition, as of December 31, 2023, the major classes of assets and liabilities of LRA were presented as held for sale in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. As of the three months ended March 31, 2024, a gain on disposal of $0.2 million was recognized in Gain (loss) on investments in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Assets Held for Sale
On November 6, 2023, the Company entered into an agreement to sell FOS, which is part of the Company’s Wealth Management segment, for a cash consideration of approximately $20.1 million. The agreement to sell was subject to regulatory approval that was granted in April 2024, following which, on May 8, 2024, the transaction was completed. See Note 21 (Subsequent Events). The proceeds from this disposal will principally be used to further execute on the Company’s strategic priorities. This disposal does not represent a strategic shift that will have a major impact on the Company’s operations. Consequently, this disposal is not classified as a discontinued operation.
The carrying amounts of the major classes of assets and liabilities of FOS are presented as held for sale in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at March 31, 2024.

AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
On May 31, 2023, the Company granted 4,693,621 shares of Class A Common Stock to its employees. These awards vest over a three-year period and had a fair value of $4.35 per share, resulting in compensation expense of $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Since the initial grant date of these awards, 314,624 shares have been forfeited.
On various dates throughout 2023, the Company granted 107,263 and 118,987 shares of Class A Common Stock to employees, representative of buy-out equity awards as restricted units, vesting generally over a one to three year period, and had a fair value of $7.66 and $8.72, respectively, per share. The Company recognized compensation expense of $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 related to these buy-out equity awards.
Earn-Ins
In connection with TWMH’s historical acquisition of Holbein Partners, LLP (“Holbein”), certain employees of Holbein are entitled to receive a combination of cash and shares of the Company based on Holbein revenues in 2023 and 2024 (the “Holbein Earn-Ins”). The Holbein Earn-Ins were measured at fair value using estimates of future revenues as of the closing date. The earn-ins are expected to be paid in a combination of 50% cash and 50% in shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on the second and third anniversaries of the closing date of January 7, 2022. On July 14, 2023, the Company amended the Holbein purchase agreement related to the Holbein acquisition. The amendment crystallized the contingent earn-in consideration amount by replacing the valuation of the Holbein Earn-Ins consideration of an estimate of future revenue. Additionally, the first payment date and second payment date are agreed as April 1, 2024, and April 1, 2025, respectively, replacing the original share purchase agreement payment dates of ten business days after the second and third anniversary of the acquisition of Holbein. The agreed upon first and second date payments are $7.1 million and $8.9 million, respectively. The selling shareholders remain required to maintain certain service agreements to receive the compensatory Holbein Earn-ins. The amount of shares awarded will be calculated based on the twenty day average volume weighted average price of the Company's Class A Common Stock preceding the first and second payment dates. The Company recognized an expense for the earn-ins of $2.0 million and $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023, respectively.
Separate from the compensatory Holbein Earn-Ins, the Holbein acquisition consideration included contingent consideration that was measured at fair value using estimates of future revenues as of the closing date. The acquisition consideration was also amended to crystallize the non-compensatory earn-in amount and follows the same fact pattern as the above-described amendment for the compensatory earn-ins. As of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, this contingent consideration is recorded as a liability of $1.7 million and $1.8 million in the “Earn-in consideration payable” line of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition and Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition, respectively.
TIH SPA
In connection with TWMH’s historical acquisition of TIH, the Delayed Share Purchase Agreement (“TIH SPA”) was amended on July 28, 2023. The TIH SPA was amended to include the Company’s Class A Common Stock as part of the purchase price. On August 1, 2023, the Company granted 152,930 shares of Class A Common Stock with a fair value of $7.70 per share under the terms of the TIH SPA amendment. The amendment to the purchase price is compensatory in nature. The Company recognized an expense for the TIH SPA of $(39.8) thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024. On March 25, 2024, the TIH SPA was fully paid. As of December 31, 2023, this TIH SPA was recorded as a liability of $1.8 million in the Delayed share purchase agreement line of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition.

(6)Income Taxes
The computation of the effective tax rate and provision at each interim period requires the use of certain estimates and significant judgment including, but not limited to, the expected operating income for the year, projections of the proportion of income that is subject to tax, permanent differences between the Company’s GAAP earnings and taxable income, and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets existing as of the balance sheet date. The estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change throughout the year as new events occur, additional information is obtained or as tax laws and regulations change. Accordingly, the effective tax rate for future interim periods may vary materially.
The Company is a domestic corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and is subject to U.S. federal and state and local corporate-level income taxes on its share of taxable income from the Umbrella Partnership. The Umbrella Partnership is a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and a taxable entity for certain state and local taxes, such as New York City and Connecticut unincorporated business tax (“UBT”). Further, the Company’s income tax provision and related income tax assets and liabilities are based on, among other things, an estimate of the impact of exchanges of Warrants and Class B Units for shares of Class A Common Stock, inclusive of an analysis of tax basis and state tax implications of the Umbrella Partnership and its underlying assets and liabilities. The Company’s estimate is based on the most recent information available. The tax basis and state impact of the Umbrella Partnership and its underlying assets and liabilities are based on estimates subject to finalization of the Company’s tax returns.
The Company had an effective tax rate of 1.6% and (5.4)% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023, respectively. The effective tax rate was calculated using an Annual Effective Tax Rate approach, and the book income related fair value changes to liabilities was excluded from forecasted earnings as these amounts are based on changes in stock price and are unable to be forecasted. The effective tax rates differed from the statutory rate primarily due to the portion of income allocated to noncontrolling interests, nondeductible compensation and state and local taxes.
The Company regularly evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax asset and may recognize or adjust any valuation allowance when it is more-likely-than-not that all or a portion of the deferred tax asset may not be realized. As of March 31, 2024, the Company has recorded valuation allowances against a portion of its deferred tax assets generated by its subsidiaries in the United Kingdom. The Company files its tax returns as prescribed by the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. In the normal course of business, the tax years that remain open under the statute of limitations may be subject to examinations by the appropriate tax authorities.

As of March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023, the Company has evaluated its tax filing positions and has not recorded a reserve for unrecognized tax benefits.
(7)Fair Value Disclosures
The Company classifies its fair value measurements using a three-tiered fair value hierarchy. The basis of the tiers is dependent upon the various “inputs” used to determine the fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Fair value is considered the value using the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
•Level 1 – Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.
•Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.
•Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.
Level 3 Valuation Techniques
In the absence of observable market prices, the Company values financial instruments using valuation methodologies applied on a consistent basis. For some investments little market activity may exist; management’s determination of fair value is then based on the best information available in the circumstances and may incorporate management’s own assumptions and involves a significant degree of judgment, taking into consideration a combination of internal and external factors. Financial instruments for which market prices are not observable include:
•Business Combination Earn-Out Liability - The Company’s valuation approach utilized a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate future share prices and the implied earn-out payment discounted using the risk-free rate.
•TRA Liability - The Company’s valuation approach utilized a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate future taxable income, share prices, and the implied TRA payments discounted using the liability discount rate which is estimated based on the Company’s credit rating.
•AWMS Earn-Out Liability - The Company’s valuation approach utilized a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate future revenue and the implied earn out payment discounted using the liability discount rate which is estimated based on the Company’s credit rating.
•Earn-In Consideration Payable - The Company’s valuation approach utilized a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate future revenue and the implied earn in payment discounted using the liability discount rate which was estimated based on the credit rating of TWMH. On July 14, 2023, the Company amended the Holbein purchase agreement related to the Holbein acquisition discussed in Note 5 (Equity-Based Compensation and Earn-in Expenses), which crystallized the contingent earn-in consideration amount and discontinued the use of a Level 3 valuation technique.
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
•Investments in External Strategic Managers - The Company utilized a Discounted Cash Flow approach to determine the fair value of the External Strategic Managers. The discount rate selection for each investment was calibrated using the implied internal rate of return as of the original investment date, adjusted for certain market- and company-specific factors. The selected long-term growth rate for each investment was based on long-term GDP growth rates in the geographic locations of the underlying External Strategic Manager, with consideration for general growth in the asset management industry.
•Contingent Consideration Receivable - The Company utilized a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate the future share price of the acquirer of LXi, and the implied contingent consideration discounted using the risk-free rate and the acquirer’s estimated credit spread.
•Warrant Liabilities - The fair value of the Constellation Warrants is determined based on Level 3 inputs using a Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. As of March 31, 2024, the Constellation Warrants amounted to $2.8 million and is included in the line item Warrant liabilities, at fair value of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition.
Refer to the valuation methodologies table below for further analysis of level 3 valuations.
The following is a summary categorization, as of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, of the Company’s financial instruments based on the inputs utilized in determining the value of such financial instruments. Investments at fair value as of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023 are presented below:

(1) The fair value of certain investments within the Company’s Investments - External Strategic Managers are reported on a one-month lag from the fund financial statements due to timing of the information provided by the funds and third-party entities unless information is available on a more timely basis. As a result, any changes in the markets in which our managed funds operate, and the impact market conditions have on underlying asset valuations, may not yet be reflected in reported amounts.
(2) Investments in Affiliated Funds are measured at fair value using the net asset value (or its equivalent) practical expedient. The Company's investments in Affiliated Funds represent interests that do not trade in an active market and are valued using the NAV of each investment company as reported and without adjustment. The Company does not have any commitments to the Affiliated Funds and redemptions are permitted on a monthly basis and require 30 days’ notice. The strategies of the Affiliated Funds primarily focus on near-dated, hard catalyst events that typically involve hostile deals, proposals, minority interest buy-ins, leverage buyouts, activism, spin-offs, recapitalizations, and agreed upon deals. The investments held in the Affiliated Funds are primarily highly liquid and marketable securities. The fair value amounts presented in this table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the amounts presented in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

(1) During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company deconsolidated AHRA (See Note 3 (Business Combinations and Divestitures)) and as a result, recorded an impairment charge of $29.4 million to the carrying value of AHRA’s investment advisory agreement with Home REIT, which is recorded in the line item Impairment loss on goodwill and intangible assets in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. On January 9th, 2024, AlTi RE Public Markets Limited entered into heads of terms to sell 100% of the equity of LRA, the advisor to the publicly-traded fund LXi, to LondonMetric for fixed consideration of approximately $33.1 million and up to an estimated $5.1 million of contingent consideration based on the exchange rate as of the balance sheet date, as applicable. The contingent consideration meets the definition of a derivative and is recorded as Contingent consideration receivable on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of March 31, 2024. This contingent consideration will be remeasured at fair value at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, with changes in fair value recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in the period of change. The disposal completed on March 6, 2024. As a result, during the year ended December 31, 2023, AlTi recognized an intangible asset impairment charge of $23.5 million in Impairment loss on goodwill and intangible assets in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. In addition, as of December 31, 2023, the major classes of assets and liabilities of LRA were presented as held for sale in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. As of the three months ended March 31, 2024, a gain on disposal of $0.2 million was recognized in Gain (loss) on investments in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

(12)Leases
The Company adopted ASC 842 as of January 1, 2022, on a modified retrospective basis with no cumulative adjustment to equity as of the adoption date. The Company has presented financial results and applied its accounting policies for the period beginning January 1, 2022 under ASC 842. The Company elected to take the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components as part of the adoption. Lease agreements entered into after the adoption of ASC 842 that include lease and non-lease components are accounted for as a single lease component. Since January 1, 2022, the Company’s operating leases, excluding those with terms less than 12 months, have been discounted and recorded as assets and liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. The Company primarily has non-cancellable operating leases for office spaces across various countries. We categorize leases as either operating or finance leases at the commencement date of the respective lease.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, no triggering events were identified, and no impairment charge was recognized on goodwill from acquisitions.
During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company evaluated as of September 30, 2023 whether circumstances existed, indicating that the fair value of its reporting units may have declined to an amount lower than the carrying value of goodwill recorded on its Consolidated Statement of Position as of that date. The Company considered a variety of factors, including the impact of prevailing market conditions, persistently high interest rates and uncertainties caused by inflation and certain world events as well as the recent actions taken by the Company to restructure and reposition certain of the businesses within its reporting units. Based on the evaluation of these factors, the Company concluded that triggering events had occurred during the period that required the Company to assess whether the goodwill allocated to its Strategic Alternatives segment was impaired. Accordingly, the Company performed a goodwill impairment test, which compared the estimated fair value of the Strategic Alternatives reporting unit to its carrying value. The Company utilized the discounted cash flow method under the income approach and the Guideline Public Company Method (“GPCM”) under the market approach, in equal weightings, in determining a fair value for the reporting unit. The results of the impairment test performed at September 30, 2023 indicated that the carrying value of the Strategic Alternatives
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
reporting unit exceeded its estimated fair value by $153.6 million. Consequently, the Company recognized a goodwill impairment charge for this amount.
The assumptions used in the discounted cash flow analyses require significant judgment, including judgment about appropriate growth rates and the amount and timing of expected future cash flows. The Company’s forecasted cash flows were based on its current assessment of the markets and on assumed growth rates expected as of the measurement date. The key assumptions used in the cash flows were revenue growth rates, operating expenses, gross margins, and discount rates that appropriately reflect the risks inherent in the cash flow streams. Under the GPCM approach, the significant assumptions include the consideration of stock price and financial metrics from guideline companies.
The Company believes that its procedures for estimating the fair value of the reporting units are reasonable and consistent with assumptions that would be used by other marketplace participants. However, such assumptions are inherently uncertain, and a change in assumptions could change the estimated fair value of our reporting units. Future impairments of our reporting units could be required, which could be material to the consolidated financial statements.

(2) The fair value of the Term Loans and Revolving Credit Facility approximates carrying value as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The fair value is categorized as Level 3 under ASC 820.
Credit Agreement
On January 3, 2023, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with BMO Harris Bank N.A., as administrative agent, for a senior secured credit facility (the “BMO Credit Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of $250.0 million, consisting of term loan commitments for an aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million (the “Term Loans”) and a revolving credit facility with commitments for an aggregate commitment amount of $150.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), with an accordion option to increase the revolving commitments an additional $75.0 million to $225.0 million total. Upon the Closing, the Company had initially acquired legacy debt obligations from its subsidiaries in the amount of $124.4 million. Subsequently, after the Closing, the Company obtained additional financing through the BMO Credit Facility from which proceeds from borrowings were used to repay outstanding debt obligations acquired through the transaction, and also for working capital and general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, permitted acquisitions.
The Term Loans and Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the Company’s option, either (i) SOFR plus a margin based on the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or (ii) the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus a margin based on the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio. The margin ranges between 1.0% and 2.0% for base rate loans and between 2.0% and 3.0% for SOFR loans. The Company will pay a commitment fee based on the average daily unused portion
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
of the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility, a letter of credit fee equal to the margin then in effect with respect to the SOFR loans under the Revolving Credit Facility, a fronting fee and any customary documentary and processing charges for any letter of credit issued under the Credit Agreement. The Term Loan is subject to quarterly amortization payments and will mature on January 3, 2028. The Revolving Credit Facility will terminate on January 3, 2028. As of March 31, 2024, unfunded commitments on the Revolving Credit Facility amounted to $14.0 million, and the weighted-average interest rate on the outstanding borrowings of this facility was 9.5%. As of December 31, 2023, unfunded commitments on the Revolving Credit Facility amounted to $16.3 million, and the weighted-average interest rate on the outstanding borrowings of this facility was 9.0%. As security for the Term Loans and Revolving Credit Facility, the borrower and the guarantors thereunder have pledged substantially all of their assets, subject to agreed-upon exclusions. The guarantor group consists of the Company’s U.S. and non-U.S. subsidiaries, subject to an agreed-upon materiality threshold. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, total outstanding debt, net of unamortized deferred financing costs amounted to $183.7 million and $186.4 million, respectively.
First Amendment to Credit Agreement
On March 31, 2023 the Company executed the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”). The First Amendment permits the Company to extend the time period for certain payments to be made that would have otherwise been restricted by the Credit Agreement.
Second Amendment to Credit Agreement
On November 10, 2023, the Company entered into the Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement (“the Second Amendment”). The Second Amendment, among other things, temporarily amends, from the date of the amendment until effectively April 1, 2024, the following provisions of the Credit Agreement:
•The aggregate commitment amount under the Revolving Credit Facility is reduced from $150.0 million to $110.0 million;
•The financial covenants in the Credit Agreement are adjusted to allow for a higher Total Leverage Ratio and Modified Leverage Ratio as well as a lower Interest Coverage Ratio;
•During the amendment period, cash proceeds from the issuance of any debt, (other than certain debt permitted under the Credit Agreement) and any equity securities issued by the Company are required to be used to repay amounts outstanding under the facility, first under the Term Loans until such Term Loans are repaid in full and then under the Revolving Credit Facility, until the Revolving Credit Facility is reduced to $50.0 million in the aggregate; and
•Beginning after the end of the amendment period, certain clauses in the Credit Agreement that pertain to restricted payments are amended.
Third Amendment to Credit Agreement
On February 22, 2024, the Company entered into a Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “Third Amendment”). The Third Amendment amends and restates the Credit Agreement in its entirety to, among other things:
•provide for and permit that the investments in the Company being made by Allianz Strategic Investments S.à.r.l. (“Allianz”) and Constellation are not required to reduce amounts outstanding under the facility;
•amend the financial covenants applicable to the Company, including permanently removing the Modified Leverage Ratio, and a waiver of the Leverage Ratio and Interest Coverage Ratio for the quarters ending March 31, 2024, and June 30, 2024. For these periods, covenants will include a Minimum EBITDA and Minimum Liquidity level. In addition, starting in the quarter ending September 30, 2024 and subsequent
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
periods, certain cash balances will permitted to be netted against debt outstanding when calculating the Company’s Leverage Ratio;
•amend the pricing grid setting forth the Applicable Margin to, among other things, increase the Applicable Margin by 0.50% while the leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio are temporarily waived, and provide for additional pricing levels based on the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio after the waiver period;
•limit the Company’s use of proceeds relating to the Revolving Credit Facility solely to general working capital; and
•provide for the sale of certain assets of the Company, the proceeds of which will be required to pay down the term loan and may reduce the $40,000,000 revolving facility commitment block in place while the leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio are temporarily waived.
As required by accounting standards, the Company has performed an assessment based on its current operations and capital structure of its ability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet its financial obligations for one year subsequent to the financial statement issuance date, based on conditions known and reasonably knowable as of the financial statement issuance date. Management has performed this required assessment as of May 10, 2024, and believes there are sufficient funds available to support its ongoing business operations and continue as a going concern for at least the next 12 months.
Management’s assessment is subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and changes in circumstances, many of which are beyond our control including the impact of the macroeconomic environment, and that are difficult to predict as to timing, extent, likelihood, and degree of occurrence, and that could cause actual results to differ from estimates and forecasts, potentially materially. Based upon the results of Management’s assessment, these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that could result from the outcome of the aforementioned risks and uncertainties.
Contractual maturities of the Term Loans as of March 31, 2024, are set out in the table below:

2028 | $ | 30,242 | |
Total | $ | 61,492 | |
Debt is prepayable without penalty prior to maturity. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are due and payable on the termination date or an earlier date at the Company’s discretion.
Constellation Transaction
In connection with the Constellation Transaction, the Company evaluated the Constellation Warrants in accordance with ASC 815-40 and concluded that a provision in the warrant agreement related to a Change of Control adjustment which would preclude equity classification as the Constellation Warrants would no longer be a fixed-for-fixed option.
The Constellation Warrants meet the definition of a derivative and are recorded as derivative liabilities on the balance sheet and measured at fair value at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Measurement. As of March 31, 2024, the Constellation Warrants of $2.8 million are recorded in the line item Warrant liabilities at fair value on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the change in fair value of the Constellation Warrants are $(0.3) million and are recorded in the line item Loss on warrant liability in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Due from TWMH Members
Certain TWMH Members were offered promissory notes to pay their estimated federal, state and local withholding taxes owed by such members, which constitute loans to members. Promissory notes totaling $1.5 million were issued by the Company in 2020, 2021 and 2022, and bear interest at an annual rate of three and one quarter percent (3.25%). Of these, certain promissory notes totaling $1.1 million included a forgiveness of debt provision. If at each of the first five one-year anniversaries of February 15, 2023, the members’ employment relationship has not been terminated for any reason, an amount equal to twenty percent (20%) of the principal and accrued interest, shall be forgiven. Upon termination of employment, any outstanding amount of loan not forgiven becomes due within 30 days.

Business Combination Earn-out Liability
Under the terms of the Business Combination, upon closing, the selling shareholders of TWMH, TIG, and Alvarium became entitled to receive earn-out shares contingent on various share price milestones and in the event of a change in control. The earn-out shares are precluded from being considered indexed to the Company's own stock and are recognized as a liability at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of the Business Combination Earn-out Liability was $22.9 million and $62.4 million, and is reported in Earn-out liability, at fair value, in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, respectively.

AWMS Earn-out Liability
On August 2, 2023, the Company acquired the remaining 70% of the issued and outstanding ownership and membership interests of AWMS, increasing its interest from 30% to 100%.

(18)Earnings Per Share
The table below presents the Company’s treatment for basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for instruments outstanding of the Company. Potentially dilutive instruments are only considered in the calculation to the extent they would be dilutive.

Unvested RSUs | | Excluded | | Treasury stock method | | Excluded | | Treasury stock method |
Holbein Earn-In Shares (4) | | Excluded | | Treasury stock method | | Excluded | | Treasury stock method |
(1) The if-converted method for these instruments includes adding back to the numerator any related income or loss allocations to noncontrolling interest, as well as any incremental tax expense had the instruments converted into Class A Shares as of the beginning of the period.
(2) During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company issued Series C Preferred Shares and Warrants for Class A Shares. The Series C Preferred Shares are entitled to participate in dividends declared on common stock on an as-converted basis. This participation right requires application of the two-class method to calculate basic earnings per share. The two-class method requires income available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between all participating instruments based upon their respective rights to receive dividends as if all income for the period had been distributed. Basic earnings per share is calculated using the proportion of net income available to be distributed to the common shareholders. Dilutive earnings per share is calculated using the more dilutive of the two-class method or the if-converted method.
(3) As mentioned in note 2, during the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company issued Series C Preferred Shares and Warrants for Class A Shares. The Warrants do not participate in dividends declared on common stock and are excluded from the calculation of basic earnings per share. Since the Warrants are classified as liabilities and remeasured at fair value each period, application of the treasury stock method for calculation of diluted earnings per share includes reversing the income statement effect of the fair value remeasurement for the period.
(4) During the third quarter of 2023, the Company modified the Holbein Earn-In shares arrangement such that the settlement of the Earn-In shares would be in shares at each service period. As of March 31, 2024, the service periods related to the Holbein Earn-In shares had not been completed, and therefore such shares have not been included in the calculation of basic earnings (loss) per share for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023. However, in calculating the Company’s diluted earnings (loss) per share, the Company utilized the treasury stock method to determine the potential number of dilutive shares for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, the Holbein Earn-In shares were excluded from the Company’s diluted earnings per share calculation as the Earn-In shares were classified as contingently issuable common shares. The key terms of the Holbein Earn-Ins are discussed in Note 5 (Equity-Based Compensation).
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income attributable to controlling interest by the weighted average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share excludes potentially dilutive instruments which were outstanding during the period but were anti-dilutive. The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

(19)Commitments and Contingencies
Tax Receivable Agreement
Pursuant to the TRA, the Company will pay certain parties to the Business Combination 85% of certain tax benefits, if any, that it realizes (or in certain cases is deemed to realize) as a result of any increase in tax basis of the assets of Alvarium Tiedemann related to the Business Combination.
Amounts payable under the TRA are contingent upon (i) the generation of taxable income over the life of the TRA, (ii) the tax rates in effect as of time periods in which tax benefits are used, and (iii) certain terms governing the rate of interest to be applied to payments under the TRA.
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the liability associated with the TRA was approximately $24.9 million and $17.6 million, respectively. Payments under the TRA that are on account of liabilities arising in connection with the Business Combination will be revalued at the end of each reporting period with the gain or loss recognized in earnings. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company carried $7.3 million and $13.2 million, respectively, of its TRA liability at fair value, as it is contingent consideration from the Business Combination. The remaining portion of the TRA liability is carried at a value equal to the expected future payments under the TRA.
In connection with the TRA, certain parties to the Business Combination who received Class B Units in Umbrella have the ability to exchange Class B Units in Umbrella For shares of Class A Common Stock in the Company on a 1:1 exchange basis. These future exchanges are anticipated to be treated as taxable exchanges which may provide an increase in the tax basis of the assets of the Company and therefore provide for additional payments under the TRA. TRA liabilities that are generated on account of future exchanges will be recorded under ASC 450, Contingencies. On August 31, 2023, holders of Class B Units exchanged 1,813,248 Class B Paired Interests to the Company, in exchange for shares of Class A Common Stock on a 1:1 basis totaling an
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
amount equal to $7.31 multiplied by the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock received at the time of the transaction. On March 11, 2024, holders of Class B Common Stock exchanged 4,954,518 Class B Paired Interests with the Company, in exchange for shares of Class A Common Stock on a 1:1 basis totaling an amount equal to $6.61 multiplied by the total number of shares of Class B Common Stock exchanged at the time of the transaction.
Payments under the TRA will continue until all such tax benefits have been utilized or expired unless (i) the Company exercises its right to terminate the TRA and pays recipients an amount representing the present value of the remaining payments, (ii) there is a change of control or (iii) the Company breaches any of the material obligations of the TRA, in which case all obligations will generally be accelerated and due as if the Company had exercised its right to terminate the TRA. In each case, if payments are accelerated, such payments will be based on certain assumptions, including that the Company will have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize the deductions arising from the increased tax deductions.
The estimate of the timing and amount of future payments under the TRA involves several assumptions that do not account for the significant uncertainties associated with those potential payments, including an assumption that the Company will have sufficient taxable income in the relevant tax years to utilize the tax benefits that would give rise to an obligation to make payments.
As of March 31, 2024, assuming no material changes in the relevant tax laws and that the Company generates sufficient taxable income to realize the full tax benefit of the increased amortization resulting from the increase in tax basis of certain of AlTi’s assets, we expect to pay approximately $24.9 million under the TRA. Future changes in the fair value of the TRA liability will be recognized in earnings. Any future cash savings and related payments under the TRA due to subsequent exchanges of Class B Units for shares of Class A Common Stock would be accounted for separately from the amount related to the Business Combination.
Business Combination Earn-out
Under the terms of the Business Combination, upon Closing, the Sponsor and the selling shareholders of TWMH, TIG, and Alvarium became entitled to receive earn-out shares contingent on various share price milestones. Additionally, upon a change of control of the Company, the share price milestones will be deemed to have been met and all the Business Combination Earn-out Securities will be payable to the earn-out holders. The earn-out shares are precluded from being considered indexed to the Company’s own stock and are recognized as a liability at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of the earn-out shares was $22.9 million and $62.4 million, respectively. See Note 2 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) for additional detail.
AWMS Earn-out Liability
On August 2, 2023, the Company acquired the remaining 70% of the issued and outstanding ownership and membership interests of AWMS, increasing its interest from 30% to 100%. The AWMS Acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and the fair value of the total purchase consideration transferred was $16.8 million. The total purchase consideration transferred consists of cash consideration, equity consideration, deferred cash consideration, earn-out consideration, (or AWMS earn-out liability), and the payment of assumed liabilities. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the AWMS earn-out liability of $1.1 million and $1.1 million, respectively, is reported in Earn-out liability, at fair value, in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Since the AWMS earn-out liability meets the definition of a derivative, it is recorded at fair value as a derivative liability on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and measured at fair value at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, with changes in fair value to be recognized in Gain (loss) on earn-out liability in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and in Fair value of earn-out liability in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows in the period of change.

Litigation
From time to time, we may be named as a defendant in legal or regulatory actions. Although there can be no assurance of the outcome of such matters, management’s current assessment is that no loss contingency reserve is required to be recorded as of March 31, 2024 for any potential liability related to any current legal or regulatory proceeding or claim that would individually or in the aggregate materially affect our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.
Home REIT is a real estate investment trust company listed on the London Stock Exchange. AFM UK was its alternative investment fund manager (“AIFM”) until August 21, 2023 and AHRA was its investment adviser until June 30, 2023. AFM UK is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. AHRA was owned by ARE (another wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) up until December 30, 2022, when it was sold. AlTi was formed on January 3, 2023, through a business combination transaction that included certain legacy Alvarium companies, including AFM UK. While the sale of AHRA occurred prior to the Business Combination, under GAAP, its results were required to be consolidated in our financial statements until June 30, 2023, when it was deconsolidated. For UK regulatory purposes, up until June 30, 2023, AHRA was permitted to perform certain limited regulated activities as an “appointed representative” of its regulated principal firm, ARE (which is authorized and regulated by the UK FCA).
Since November 2022, Home REIT and AHRA have been the subject of a series of allegations in the UK media regarding Home REIT’s operations, triggered by a report issued by a short seller. Home REIT’s stock price fell materially as a result and its shares are currently suspended from trading.
On October 6, 2023, a pre-action letter of claim was received by AFM UK and ARE asserting potential claims against those entities relating to the above matters (a pre-action letter of claim is required to be sent by a claimant to a potential defendant under the Practice Direction on Pre-Action Protocols and Conduct contained in the United Kingdom’s Ministry of Justice Civil Procedure Rules prior to a claimant commencing litigation in the UK). This relates to the historic management of Home REIT by certain legacy Alvarium entities. The pre-action letter was sent by a law firm acting on behalf of a group of current and former shareholders in Home REIT and, in addition to AFM UK and ARE, was addressed to Home REIT and its directors. The pre-action letter does not provide details of amounts being claimed from any of the potential defendants (whether jointly or severally), and it is not possible at this point in time for us to reliably assess what the quantum of such claims might be, or AFM UK’s and ARE’s potential exposure, though they may potentially be material to the Company. If any litigation or other action is commenced by current and/or former shareholders of Home REIT against AFM UK and/or ARE, we intend to defend ourselves in any such matters vigorously. However, if any claims were commenced, we would anticipate that such claims may involve complex questions of law and fact and we may incur significant legal expenses in defending such litigation.
On April 12, 2024, pre-action letters of claim were received by AFM UK and ARE from solicitors acting for Home REIT and its directors. This relates to the historic management of Home REIT by certain legacy Alvarium entities. In the letters, Home REIT and its directors state their intention to bring claims against those entities: (i) for a 100% contribution to any losses incurred by Home REIT or its directors if current or former shareholders in Home REIT issue claims against them as outlined in the preceding paragraph; and (ii) on a standalone basis, for losses they assert have been incurred by Home REIT as a result of: alleged breaches of contractual, tortious and fiduciary duties, unlawful means conspiracy and deceit by AFM UK and/or AHRA, and, in the case of ARE, they assert that ARE is liable to Home REIT for any actions or omissions of AHRA under the UK’s appointed representative regime. The pre-action letters do not provide details of the overall amounts being claimed from either AFM UK or ARE (whether jointly or severally), and it is not possible at this point in time for us to reliably assess what the quantum of such claims might be, or AFM UK’s and ARE’s potential exposure, though they may potentially be material to the Company. If any litigation or other action is commenced by Home REIT and/or its directors against AFM UK and/or ARE, we intend to defend ourselves in any such matters vigorously. However, if any claims were commenced, we would anticipate that such claims

may involve complex questions of law and fact and we may incur significant legal expenses in defending such litigation.
HLIF is a private fund which pursues a similar investment strategy to Home REIT, and which we are in the process of transitioning to a new manager. In the period from June 30, 2022 to December 31, 2023, the estimated value of its underlying real estate investment portfolio declined by approximately 50%, due to a decrease in the timely collection of rents on the underlying portfolio, but also due to higher interest rates and other macro-economic factors. HLIF is managed by AFM UK as its AIFM and ‘authorized corporate director’ and is advised by SHIA. Like AHRA, SHIA was permitted to perform certain limited regulated activities as an “appointed representative” of its regulated principal firm, ARE.
In February 2024, the UK FCA commenced investigations into the historic performance of certain group entities, in their services to Home REIT and/or HLIF, and whether they breached certain civil or criminal regulatory rules and/or principles. The investigations relate to the historic management of Home REIT and/or HLIF by certain legacy Alvarium entities. The investigations are focused primarily on whether any false or misleading statements were made in relation to Home REIT and/or HLIF and/or whether these group entities breached other FCA rules and/or principles. We no longer provide services to Home REIT and are in the process of transitioning the management of HLIF. Once this is completed, the legacy Alvarium companies that provided these services will cease operating. The commencement of the investigations does not mean that the UK FCA has determined that any such breaches have occurred. However, it is possible that the UK FCA may determine that certain breaches have occurred and it may seek to impose financial penalties or other outcomes on one or more group entities, that may potentially be material to the Company. We intend to cooperate fully with the UK FCA as it conducts the investigations. We are not able to estimate how long it might take for the UK FCA to complete such investigations, but it is possible that the investigations may continue for a prolonged period, potentially over several years.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF ALTI GLOBAL, INC.
In this section, unless the context otherwise requires, references to “AlTi,” “we,” “us,” and “our” are intended to mean the business and operations of AlTi and its consolidated subsidiaries. The following discussion analyzes the financial condition and results of operations of AlTi and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated unaudited financial statements and the related notes included in this Quarterly Report.
Amounts and percentages presented throughout our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations may reflect rounded results in thousands (unless otherwise indicated) and consequently, totals may not appear to sum.
Our Business
We are a multi-disciplinary financial services business, with a diverse array of investment, advisory, and administrative capabilities with which we serve our clients and investors around the globe; and provide value to our shareholders. Our business is organized into two business segments: Wealth Management and Strategic Alternatives (formerly known as Asset Management):
•we manage or advise approximately $71.0 billion in combined assets as of March 31, 2024;
•in our Wealth Management segment, we provide holistic solutions for our wealth management clients through our full spectrum of wealth management services, including discretionary investment management services, non-discretionary investment advisory services, trust services, administration services, and family office services;
•in our Strategic Alternatives segment, we assist our investors with alternative investments and co-investments by providing access to highly differentiated opportunities in these areas as well as structuring and selecting partners with a proven track record in alternative asset classes, with attractive risk adjusted return characteristics.
Our business is global, with approximately 460 professionals operating in 21 cities in 10 countries across three continents as of March 31, 2024. Following the sales of the FOS and LRA businesses, we will have approximately 410 professionals, and the cities and countries in which we operate will be reduced by one, to reflect our exit from Isle of Man. See Note 3 (Business Combinations and Divestitures).
The services that we provide form a complementary ecosystem for our target markets of clients, investors, and businesses, many of whom share common interests and goals that we are able to connect and serve. The complementary nature of our services and a differentiated suite of capabilities positions us well for organic growth across our business lines. Our strategy includes a focus on inorganic growth through acquisitions and investments in talented managers in exchange for a share of future revenues or profits. We also believe we are well positioned to capitalize on global market trends and dynamics that we see facing our world as well as the industry, clients, investors, and businesses we serve.
Fee Structure
Consistent with offering a diverse range of services, we generate a diverse range of revenue streams across our business lines. A high-level summary of these revenue streams is set forth below.
Broadly, our revenues fall into four categories: recurring management, advisory, or administration fees; performance or incentive fees; distribution from investments and other income or fees:
•Management, advisory, and administration fees are historically more predictable across market conditions than our other revenue sources. These fees are recurring in nature (usually being annual or
quarterly fees) and are earned from both our wealth management division from investment management, investment advisory, trusts and administration, and family office services, and also from our fund management activities associated with our internally managed funds. Added to the recurring nature of these fees, our high client retention rate in our wealth management services, and the long-term nature of our fund management fees, means that these fees are also relatively stable.
•Incentive or performance fees are comprised of both carried interest payments we earn on co-investments and annual performance or incentive fees earned in some cases from our investment management and advisory or fund management services associated with our internally managed funds. These fees, being performance related, are variable in nature and more susceptible to impact from exogenous factors. As a result, performance and incentive fees provide potential upside to our revenues in the future and, in our view, can be highly accretive to our profitability.
•Distributions from investments are generated from the equity interests we have in the three external managers pursuant to which we are entitled to distributions based on the terms of the respective arrangements. Distributions from each investment will be recorded upon receipt of the distribution. We receive distributions from its External Strategic Managers through our profit or revenue sharing arrangements that are generated through their management and incentive fees based on performance of the underlying investments. The management component of the distributions is recurring in nature, while the incentive portion is more susceptible to impact from exogenous factors.
•Other income or fees include transaction fees from our strategic advisory, corporate advisory, brokerage, and placement agency services. Transaction fees are generally non-recurring in nature, are typically commission based, and are payable on the successful completion of a transaction. Transactions are also susceptible to impact from exogenous factors. However, as is the case with performance and incentive fees, transaction fees provide potential upside to our revenues and, in our view, can be highly accretive to our profitability.
Wealth Management Fees
Investment management or advisory fees are the primary source of revenue in our Wealth Management segment. These fees are generally calculated on the basis of a percentage of the value of each client’s assets (AUM or AUA) and are charged using either an average daily balance or ending balance, quarterly in arrears.
AUA consists of all assets we are responsible for overseeing and reporting on, but we do not necessarily charge fees on all such assets. Billable assets represent the portion of our assets on which we charge fees. Non-billable assets are exempt of fees and consist of assets such as cash and cash equivalents in certain agreed upon situations, personally owned real estate, and other designated assets.
The fees vary depending upon the level and complexity of client assets and the services being provided. The fee typically covers the investment advisory services and basic estate and wealth planning services. The more complex estate and wealth planning services, as well as our Trustee service, and certain extended family office services, are typically billed separately, as a fixed or time-based amount.
Some clients in certain jurisdictions may also pay performance fees if their portfolio achieves returns in excess of an agreed benchmark or hurdle rate. Typically, such fees are paid annually upon crystallization and are not accrued prior to being earned.
Strategic Alternatives Fees
Fund Management Fees
We earn management fees in our Strategic Alternatives segment through our alternatives platform (compensation for internal fund management and advisory services), private real estate fund management and private real estate recurring fees. The management fees for the alternatives platform are approximately 0.75% to 1.5% of the net asset value of the funds’ underlying investments.
Incentive Fees
TIG Arbitrage is entitled to receive incentive fees if certain performance returns have been achieved as stipulated in our governing documents. The incentive fees for TIG Arbitrage are calculated using 15% to 20% of the net profit/income. We recognize our incentive fees when it is no longer probable that a significant reversal of revenue will occur. Our incentive fees are not subject to clawback provisions.
Distributions from Investments
Distributions from investments are earned through our profit or revenue sharing arrangements with the External Strategic Managers. Our economic interests in the External Strategic Managers are as follows:
•Real Estate Bridge Lending Strategy—20.92% profit share;
•European Equities—25% revenue share; and
•Asian Credit and Special Situations—12% revenue share
Our distributions from investments from European equities and Asian credit and special situations are comprised of a management fee component and, depending on performance, an incentive fee component. Depending on the fund, the incentive fee component can range from 15% to 35% of the net profit/income, in excess of a 10% return hurdle.
Co-investment
As sponsor of private market direct and co-investment transactions, we generate income from debt and equity structures relating to specified real estate investments or investments in other alternative asset classes. Private market fees include arrangement, retainer, management, advisory, performance, acquisition, promote and other associated fees as well as interest arbitrage for debt structures. Arrangement fees are typically 50 to 100 basis points of equity value contributed into a transaction. Acquisition fees are typically payable where there are no agency fees or where there is an off-market transaction sourced by the team. Such acquisition fees are usually in the range of 50 to 100 basis points of the purchase price of the relevant acquisition. The equity structures are typically medium to long-term (three to ten years) closed-ended structures with fees normally ranging between 50 and 175 basis points of the equity value committed or drawn. The debt structure terms are generally between 12 and 36 months. The investment adviser, general partner or other entity entitled to fees in respect of each of our co-investments receives such fees either monthly, quarterly, or annually.
We may be entitled to a portion of the performance-related entitlements (such as carried interest or promote) that may be payable on exit from Co-investment transactions. Such revenues are only received if the investor hurdle (i.e. a minimum return to the investor) is reached and may include a catch-up. Carried interest entitlements are based on a percentage of the investor return above such hurdle and are set on a deal and fund basis. Typically, carried interest entitlements represent 10% to 20% of the investors’ equity internal rate of return in excess of an 8% to 15% hurdle, with no carried interest entitlement being payable if the hurdle is not met. In relation to our co-investments, a group company will typically have entered into an advisory or management agreement, or other arrangement, that entitles us to receive a share of base management fees (whether directly or through a joint venture entity) from the inception of the relevant investment or joint venture, through to exit and the liquidation of the relevant transaction vehicle, or as otherwise set out in an approved business plan. Where we have established feeder vehicles for clients, there may also be administration and advisory fees associated with those vehicles (these are earned by our trusts and administration business).
Real Estate Fund
We generate income from managing and advising a private real estate investment fund. Our fees from managing and advising this vehicle are contained in management and advisory contracts relating to the relevant fund and are typically calculated on a sliding scale of percentages of the asset value, market capitalization or the investor capital of the relevant fund as applicable.
Market Trends and Business Environment
Our business is directly and indirectly affected by conditions in the financial markets and economic conditions, particularly in the U.S. and to a lesser extent in Europe, and Asia. Our business is also sensitive to current and expected interest rates, as well as the currency markets.
After significant market gains in 2023, Q1 2024 continued the pattern of strong equity market performance. The S&P 500 and the MSCI All Country World Index increased by 10.6% and 8.3% total return, respectively, over the quarter, after rising by 26.3% and 22.8% total return, respectively, for the year 2023. Government fixed income markets in Q1, however, came under modest pressure as yields rose and bond prices fell. The Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index declined by 0.8% in Q1 2024, while the Barclays Global Aggregate Index rose a modest 0.1% over the same time frame. While Government bond prices had a more volatile start to the year, it is noteworthy that credit conditions in the US continued to improve with credit spreads — the extra yield over Treasuries that corporate bonds must pay to compensate for extra risk — continued to narrow, resulting in the US High Yield index (iShares IBoxx $HY) index rising by 1.5% over the quarter.
The catalysts for recent market stock market strength have been a combination of factors, including: the US economy continuing to show solid economic growth, which bodes well for earnings growth as the year progresses. The US stock market also benefits from the trend of generative AI, as close to 30% of its shares are represented by leading technology companies, that are both investing in and likely to continue to benefit from monetization of this innovation over time. There are also signs that other parts of the global economy are recovering, with economic growth improving in China, with Q1 GDP up 5.3% annualized on the quarter. The euro zone economy also grew by more than expected in the first quarter of 2024, buoyed by a return to growth for Germany and strong expansion in Spain. Gross domestic product increased by 0.3% quarter-on-quarter for a 0.5% year-on-year rise, compared with market expectations that both would expand by 0.2%.
Stock market gains in Q1 have come even though inflation prints in the US have generally come in above expectations, leading investors to moderate expectations for when the Fed Reserve will be able to reduce short end US interest rates this year. These higher inflation prints, and the expected large size of the US fiscal deficit help explain why US government bond yields have risen this year. In contrast, better disinflationary data in Europe and to some extent the UK have helped the Central Bank of these economies signal that rates will likely be reduced, by mid-year. The divergent outlook for easing in policy interest rates has had an impact on currencies with the US Dollar Index up 3.1% to the end of Q1. This has partially impacted the returns from our international portfolios, translated back into US dollars as the Euro and Sterling have declined by 2.3% and 0.9%, respectively versus the US dollar in the first quarter.
Our fee-based revenue streams are driven by the value of clients’ portfolio holdings, in the case of our Wealth Management segment or the performance of our varied funds and direct investments in our Strategic Alternatives segment. The overall level of revenues in these businesses, however, does not correlate completely with changes in global equity and fixed income markets.
In our Wealth Management segment, while our client portfolios are well diversified across a range of asset classes and thus are not solely impacted by changes in equities or government bonds, they benefited in the year from the strong performance in the equity and fixed income markets. Client portfolios also include holdings such as gold, credit and hedge funds that also delivered positive returns in the year. Portfolio fluctuations also depend on multiple additional factors that include, but are not limited to, the level and duration of fixed income holdings with short-term money market funds showing limited volatility over the quarter, the level of alternative and private market holdings and the geographic and industry mix of client’s equity assets. We also note that our UHNW client base generally does not need to draw down from their portfolios to support day-to-day living needs and, accordingly, is able to approach portfolio investing with a long-term time horizon. Hence, in terms of behavior, they are less sensitive to short-term changes in market conditions.
In our Strategic Alternatives segment, the majority of our fees are derived from alternative funds which are structured to have low correlation to equity and fixed income markets and in some cases benefit in times of market stress. In particular, our European long-short equity and Asian Credit manager continue to perform well in the first quarter. With respect to incentive fees earned by our event-driven strategy, US GAAP only permits recognition of such fees when they are fully crystallized, which typically occurs in the fourth quarter of each year.
Still high interest rates continue to have an impact on our public and private real estate assets. The higher cost of capital environment, ongoing increases in costs of construction and generally stagnating real estate prices are negatively impacting some of the real estate segments in which we operate. These declines impact the level of management fees that we earn. In addition, following completion of the sale of LXi REIT Advisors during the first quarter, the level of management fees we earn from public real estate will decline in future periods. On the private real estate side, the more difficult market and interest rate conditions may reduce the ultimate return expected from some of these investments. It is important to note that these assets are utilized in conjunction with longer-term investment strategies and are not subject to daily market pricing. Given the uncertainty in outlook, and the potential for diminution in value at realization, we modified our billing methodology for certain of our private real estate holdings, which will result in lower fees earned, until monetization.
We currently do not hedge corporate currency risk associated with client portfolio and investor holdings across global markets. Hence, as we report our revenues in U.S. dollars, the translation impact from changes in the value of currencies outside the U.S. dollar can impact our results in any given financial reporting period.
We believe that the combination of our Wealth Management and Strategic Alternatives segments differentiates us from pure-play firms in both sectors and provides a growing base of recurring and diversified revenues. Since the Business Combination, total AUM/AUA increased approximately 9%, and within our Wealth Management segment, these have grown 26% since the Business Combination.
In the first quarter of 2024, we generated revenues of $50.8 million. We believe these results, generated through a combination of strong market performance and organic client wins, are starting to reflect the power of our franchise, which we believe will continue to flow to an improved bottom line as we look forward to the remainder of 2024. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) was $6.8 million for the period ended March 31, 2024.
We have continued to right-size the organization, simplify our business lines, and initiate processes to reduce the number of our regulated entities, while securing important client wins and adding key revenue-generating talent. Since the beginning of the year, we have reported AUM/AUA growth amidst a volatile market environment.
Our core businesses continue to perform well. Based on the new initiatives undertaken this year and those that we embarked on during 2023, we expect operating expenses to continue to trend downward in 2024. As these cost savings and other growth initiatives take hold next year, we would expect to see the impact of operating leverage drive improvements and greater consistency in our US GAAP results and Adjusted EBITDA. In addition, we believe that we will be able to deploy the capital raised from the investments from Allianz and Constellation to make accretive investments that will benefit our GAAP results and Adjusted EBITDA in 2024, and beyond.
Managing Business Performance and Key Financial Measures
Non-US GAAP Financial Measures
We use Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA as non-US GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA is derived from and reconciled to, but not equivalent to, its most directly comparable US GAAP measure of net income (loss). Adjusted Net Income represents net income (loss) before taxes plus (a) equity-settled share-based payments, (b) transaction-related costs, including professional fees, (c) impairment of equity method
investments, (d) change in fair value of investment or other financial instruments, (e) onetime bonuses recorded in the statement of operations, (f) compensation expense related to the earn-in of certain variable interest entities, and (g) adjusted income tax expense. Adjusted EBITDA represents adjusted net income plus (a) interest expense, net, (b) income tax expense, (c) adjusted income tax expense less income tax expense, and (d) depreciation and amortization expense.
We use Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA as non-US GAAP measures to track our performance and assess our ability to service our borrowings. These non-US GAAP financial measures supplement and should be considered in addition to and not in lieu of, the results of operations, which are discussed further under “Components of Consolidated Results of Income” and are prepared in accordance with US GAAP. For the specific components and calculations of these non-US GAAP measures, as well as a reconciliation of these measures to the most comparable measure in accordance with US GAAP, see “Reconciliation of Consolidated US GAAP Financial Measures to Certain Non-US GAAP Measures.”

Operating Metrics
We monitor certain operating metrics that are common to the wealth and asset management industry, which are discussed below.
| | | | | | | | |
AlTi Global, Inc. AUM: $38.0 billion AUA: $71.0 billion |
| | |
Wealth Management AUM: $35.4 billion AUA: $53.5 billion | | Strategic Alternatives AUM: $2.6 billion AUA: $17.5 billion |
Wealth Management - AUM
AUM refers to the market value of all assets that we manage, provide discretionary investment advisory services on, and have execution responsibility for. Although we have investment responsibility for AUM, we include both billable (assets charged fees) and non-billable assets (assets exempt of fees) in our AUM calculation (e.g., we have agreements with certain clients under which we do not bill on certain securities or cash and cash equivalents held within their portfolio). AUM includes the value of all assets managed or supervised by operating partner subsidiaries, affiliates, and joint ventures in which the Company holds either a majority or minority stake. Our calculations of AUM and AUA may differ from the calculation methodologies of other wealth managers and, as a result, this measure may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other wealth managers.
The table below presents the change in our total AUM for our Wealth Management segment for the periods indicated:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Average AUM | | | | | $ | 34,992 | | | $ | 29,185 | |
Wealth Management - AUA
AUA includes all assets we manage as defined above, oversee, and report on. We view AUA as a core metric to measure our investment and fundraising performance as it includes non-financial assets (e.g., real estate) that
are not included in AUM, investment consulting assets (not included in AUM but revenue generating) and other assets that we do not charge fees upon and do not have responsibility for investment execution responsibility, but the reporting of which is valued by our clients. AUA includes the value of all assets managed or supervised by operating partner subsidiaries, affiliates, and joint ventures in which the Company holds either a majority or minority stake. Our calculations of AUA and AUM may differ from the calculation methodologies of other wealth managers and, as a result, this measure may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other wealth managers.

Strategic Alternatives - AUM/AUA
The Company’s Strategic Alternatives AUM/AUA includes the following:
•assets managed by the Alternatives platform, including by TIG Arbitrage $2.3 billion and $2.4 billion, respectively, and the External Strategic Managers (AUA $5.2 billion and $5.3 billion as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively);
•Co-investment real estate advisory services, where we include the value of our private market direct and co-investment real estate investments (AUA $9.6 billion and $10.1 billion as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively); and
•Assets managed in a private real estate investment fund (AUM $0.3 billion and $2.6 billion as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively) from which we generate fee revenue.

Components of Consolidated Results of Income
Revenues
Management/Advisory Fees
For services provided to each client account, the Company charges investment management, custody, and/or trustee fees based on the fair value of the assets of such account (“management/advisory fees”). The Company invoices clients based on the terms outlined in the signed customer contract (e.g., quarterly in arrears or in advance) based on the fair market value or net asset value. For those assets for which valuations are not available on a daily basis, the most recent valuation provided to the Company is used as the fair value for the purpose of calculating the quarterly fee.
The customer exchanges consideration to obtain services that are the output of the Company’s ordinary activities, which are investment management services provided to each client account. Further, none of the scope exceptions under ASC 606-10-15-2 apply to the management/advisory fees; therefore, they are in the scope of ASC 606.
Incentive Fees
The Company is entitled to receive incentive fees if certain targeted returns have been achieved as stipulated in its customer contracts. The incentive fees are generally calculated using 15% to 20% of the net profit its customers earn. Incentive fees are generally calculated and recognized when it is probable that there will be no significant reversal.
Distributions from Investments
The Company has equity interests in three entities pursuant to which it is entitled to distributions based on the terms of the respective arrangements. Distributions from each investment will be recorded upon receipt of the distribution. The Company receives distributions from External Strategic Managers through profit or revenue sharing arrangements that are generated through management and incentive fees based on performance of the underlying investments.
Other fees
The Company generates arrangement fees in its co-investment division by arranging private debt or equity financing, generally in connection with an acquisition. Arrangement fees range from 0.5% to 1.75% of the equity value contributed into a transaction and are payable upon close of the deal. The Company also generates brokerage fees which are similar to arrangement fees except that they are generally paid for assisting public companies in raising capital.
Expenses
Compensation and Employee Benefits: Compensation generally includes salaries, bonuses, other performance-based compensation such as commissions, long-term deferral programs, benefits, and payroll taxes. Compensation is accrued over the related service period and long-term deferral program awards are paid out based on the various vesting dates.
General, Administrative and Other Expenses: General, administrative and other expenses include costs primarily related to professional services, occupancy, travel, communication and information services, distribution costs, and other general operating items.
Depreciation and Amortization Expenses: Fixed assets are depreciated or amortized on a straight-line basis, with the corresponding depreciation and amortization expense included within depreciation and amortization in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The estimated useful life for leasehold improvements is the lesser of the remaining lease term or the life of the asset, while other fixed assets are generally depreciated over a period of three to fifteen years.
Interest Expense: Interest expense consists of the interest expense on our outstanding debt, amortization of deferred financing costs, and amortization of original issue discount.
Income Tax Expense: Income tax expense consists of taxes paid or payable by our consolidated operating subsidiaries. Certain of our subsidiaries are treated as flow-through entities for federal income tax purposes and, accordingly, are not subject to federal and state income taxes, as such taxes are the responsibility of certain direct and indirect owners of the flow-through entities. However, the flow-through entities are subjected to UBT and other state taxes. A portion of our operations is conducted through domestic and foreign corporations that are subject to corporate level taxes and for which we record current and deferred income taxes at the prevailing rates in the various jurisdictions in which these entities operate.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Revenue
Management/Advisory fees. The decrease in management and advisory fees of $(0.2) million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023 was driven primarily by lower management fees in our Strategic Alternatives, reflecting lower AUM in that segment, offset by higher management fees in Wealth Management, in line with higher year over year AUM.
Incentive fees. The decrease in incentive fees of $(0.4) million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023 was driven by lower performance of investments held in Strategic Alternatives in the current period.
Distributions from investments. The decrease in distributions from investments of $(5.9) million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023 was driven by lower incentive fee distributions from the European equities strategy in Strategic Alternatives in the current period. Prior year performance was particularly strong for that strategy, resulting in significant incentive fees in the prior period. Management fee distributions, which represented 64% of distributions from investments for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 24% for three months ended March 31, 2023, were essentially consistent period over period in dollar value.
Other fees / income. The decrease in other fees / income of $(0.7) million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily driven by lower transactional income in Strategic Alternatives in the current period, which generated $0.8m of Other fees for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and no revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Expenses
Compensation Expense. The decrease in compensation expense of $(23.6) million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily driven by $24.7 million of non-cash stock based compensation related to both legacy TWMH and Alvarium incentive plans as well as the issuance of AlTi equity following the Business Combination during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Non-compensation Expense. The decrease in non-compensation expenses of $(12.4) million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily driven by $11.4 million in professional fees incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to $22.9 million in professional fees incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Other income (expenses)
The increase in other income (expenses) of $79.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily driven by a gain of $39.5 million related to the change in fair value of earn-out liabilities as a result of share price changes during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to a $(29.2) million loss related to the change in fair value of earn-out liabilities as a result of share price changes and a $(12.9) million loss related to the exchange of warrants into common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Taxes
The Company's effective tax rate was 1.6% for the for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to (5.4)% for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The difference in the effective tax rate is primarily driven by the legal entity organizational changes which occurred on account of the Business Combination, the tax impact of mark-to-market losses associated with contingent liabilities and equity consideration in the Business Combination, nondeductible professional fees incurred in connection with the Business Combination, and the impact of a forecasted valuation allowance with respect to deferred tax assets generated in the Company’s subsidiaries in the U.K.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Management assesses liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund operating, investing, and financing activities. Management takes a prudent approach to ensure the Company's liquidity will continue to be sufficient for its foreseeable working capital needs, contractual obligations, distribution payments and strategic initiatives.
On January 3, 2023, concurrent with the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company entered into a $250.0 million credit facility with a syndicate led by BMO Capital Markets Corp. The facility, which has a term of five years and is comprised of a $150.0 million revolving credit facility and a $100 million term loan facility, was to be used to pay down subsidiary debt and fund growth initiatives. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had $61.5 million outstanding on the term loan facility and $126.0 million outstanding on the revolving credit facility. See Note 14 (Debt, net of unamortized deferred financing costs).
Allianz and Constellation Investment
On February 22, 2024, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement (the “Allianz Investment Agreement”) with Allianz, pursuant to which, among other things, at the closing of the transaction, and based on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein: (i) Allianz will purchase in the aggregate $250 million of the Company’s capital securities, consisting of (a) 140,000 shares of a newly created class of preferred stock to be designated Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) and (b) 19,318,580.96 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at a purchase price of $5.69 per share, and (ii) the Company will issue to Allianz warrants to purchase 5,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $7.40 per share of Class A Common Stock, subject to customary adjustments (collectively, the “Allianz Transaction”). Consummation of the Allianz Transaction is expected to close during the second quarter of 2024, subject to, among other things, applicable regulatory approvals, Company stockholder approval and other customary closing conditions.
In addition, on February 22, 2024, the Company entered into a Supplemental Series A Preferred Stock Investment Agreement with Allianz, pursuant to which, for purposes of funding one or more strategic international acquisitions by the Company or its subsidiaries, Allianz is permitted, at its option, to purchase additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock up to an aggregate amount equal to $50,000,000.
Concurrently with the Company’s execution of the Allianz Investment Agreement, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement with Constellation (the “Constellation Investment Agreement”). On March 27, 2024, the Company completed the sale to Constellation of 115,000 shares of a newly created class of preferred stock designated Series C Preferred Stock for a purchase price equal to $115.0 million and issued to Constellation the Constellation Warrants to purchase 1,533,333 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock in each case on terms consistent with the Constellation Investment Agreement, dated February 22, 2024 and previously disclosed on the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 23, 2024.
As previously reported, during the period commencing May 1, 2024 until September 30, 2024, the Company is permitted to deliver a capital demand notice requiring Constellation to purchase and acquire an additional 35,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, representing an additional investment equal to $35.0 million, subject to applicable regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. In the event that the Company delivers such notice to Constellation, Constellation will also receive from the Company, and the Company shall issue to Constellation, warrants to purchase 466,667 shares of Class A Common Stock.
Cash Flows
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023
The following tables and discussion summarize our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows by activity attributable to AlTi. Negative amounts represent an outflow or use of cash.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| For the Three Months Ended | | Favorable (unfavorable) |
(Dollars in Thousands) | March 31, 2024 | | March 31, 2023 | | $ Change | | |
Net cash used in operating activities | $ | (15,472) | | | $ | (61,045) | | | $ | 45,573 | | | |
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities | $ | 30,980 | | | $ | (114,129) | | | 145,109 | | | |
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities | $ | 104,096 | | | $ | (2,184) | | | 106,280 | | | |
Effect of exchange rate on cash balances | $ | (223) | | | $ | 1,052 | | | (1,275) | | | |
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents | $ | 119,381 | | | $ | (176,306) | | | $ | 295,687 | | | |
Cash and cash equivalents increased $295.7 million as of March 31, 2024 as compared to March 31, 2023, primarily due to the Company’s completed sale to Constellation of 115,000 shares of a newly created class of preferred stock designated Series C Preferred Stock for a purchase price equal to $115.0 million. See MD&A (Liquidity and Capital Resources) discussion for additional information.
Operating Activities
Our cash inflows from operating activities comprise of cash collected through management and advisory fees, incentive fees, distributions from investments and other income/fees. Our cash outflows from operating activities consist of operating expenses, the most significant components of which included compensation and benefits, professional fees and interest on our debt obligations. Our net operating cash outflow of $(15.5) million for three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily driven by the level of professional fees, which continue to be elevated due to high usage of professional services firms in connection with capital raising and other financing activities and related to supporting the Company’s evolving financial reporting infrastructure. Management believes the current level of professional fee spend will be reduced over time as the Company’s financial reporting environment continues to mature. Our net operating cash outflow of $(61.0) million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was driven by the cash outflow of $(33.9) million related to compensation and benefits expenses as well as approximately $(26.5) million of accrued professional fees in connection with the close of the Business Combination.
Investing Activities
Our net investing cash flows provided by investing activities of $31.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 primarily related to proceeds from the sale of LXi.
Financing Activities
Our net cash flows provided by financing activities of $104.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 were primarily driven by the issuance of preferred equity to Constellation Wealth Capital, net of transaction costs paid.
Future Sources and Uses of Liquidity
In the normal course of business, we may engage in off-balance sheet arrangements, including transactions in derivatives, guarantees, commitments, indemnifications, and potential contingent repayment obligations. We do not have any off-financial position arrangements that would require us to fund losses or guarantee target returns to clients.
Contractual Obligations
Tax Receivable Agreement
As discussed in Note 19 (Commitments and Contingencies) to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report, we may in the future be required to make payments under the TRA.
Pursuant to the TRA, the Company will pay certain parties to the Business Combination 85% of certain tax benefits, if any, that it realizes (or in certain cases is deemed to realize) as a result of any increase in tax basis of the assets of Alvarium Tiedemann related to the Business Combination.
Amounts payable under the TRA are contingent upon (i) the generation of taxable income over the life of the TRA, (ii) the tax rates in effect as of time periods in which tax benefits are used, and (iii) certain terms governing the rate of interest to be applied to payments under the TRA.
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the liability associated with the TRA was approximately $24.9 million and $17.6 million, respectively. Payments under the TRA that are on account of liabilities arising in connection with the Business Combination will be revalued at the end of each reporting period with the gain or loss recognized in earnings. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company carried $7.3 million and $13.2 million, respectively of its TRA liability at fair value, as it is contingent consideration from the Business Combination. The remaining portion of the TRA liability is carried at a value equal to the expected future payments under the TRA
In connection with the TRA, certain parties to the Business Combination who received Class B Units in Umbrella have the ability to exchange Class B Units in Umbrella for shares of Class A Common Stock in the Company on a 1:1 exchange basis. These future exchanges are anticipated to be treated as taxable exchanges which may provide an increase in the tax basis of the assets of the Company and therefore provide for additional payments under the TRA. TRA liabilities that are generated on account of future exchanges will be recorded under ASC 450, Contingencies. On August 31, 2023, holders of Class B Units exchanged 1,813,248 Class B Paired Interests with the Company, in exchange for shares of Class A Common Stock on a 1:1 basis totaling an amount equal to $7.31 multiplied by the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock received at the time of the transaction. On March 11, 2024, holders of Class B Common Stock exchanged 4,954,518 Class B Paired Interests with the Company, in exchange for shares of Class A Common Stock on a 1:1 basis totaling an amount equal to $6.61 multiplied by the total number of shares of Class B Common Stock exchanged at the time of the transaction.
Payments under the TRA will continue until all such tax benefits have been utilized or expired unless (i) the Company exercises its right to terminate the TRA and pays recipients an amount representing the present value of the remaining payments, (ii) there is a change of control or (iii) the Company breaches any of the material obligations of the TRA, in which case all obligations will generally be accelerated and due as if the Company had exercised its right to terminate the TRA. In each case, if payments are accelerated, such payments will be based on certain assumptions, including that the Company will have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize the deductions arising from the increased tax deductions.
The estimate of the timing and amount of future payments under the TRA involves several assumptions that do not account for the significant uncertainties associated with those potential payments, including an assumption that the Company will have sufficient taxable income in the relevant tax years to utilize the tax benefits that would give rise to an obligation to make payments.
As of March 31, 2024, assuming no material changes in the relevant tax laws and that the Company generates sufficient taxable income to realize the full tax benefit of the increased amortization resulting from the increase in tax basis of certain of AlTi’s assets, we expect to pay approximately $24.9 million under the TRA. Future changes in the fair value of the TRA liability will be recognized in earnings. Any future cash savings and related payments under the TRA due to subsequent exchanges of Class B Units for shares of Class A Common Stock would be accounted for separately from the amount related to the Business Combination.
Warrants
Prior to the Business Combination, the Company issued warrants to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share. Throughout the period from January 1, 2023 to March 31, 2023, 428,626 Warrants were exercised. On April 3, 2023, 78,864 Warrants were exercised. On June 7, 2023, the Company closed an offer and consent solicitation and entered into a warrant amendment, pursuant to which the remaining 19,892,387 Warrants were exchanged for 4,962,147 shares of Class A Common Stock. The exercises and exchanges throughout the period from January 1, 2023 to June 30, 2023 resulted in an increase in Additional Paid-in-Capital amount of $29.5 million. As of March 31, 2024, none of such Warrants are outstanding.
On March 27, 2024, the Company completed the issuance of Constellation Warrants to purchase 1,533,333 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $7.40 per share. As of March 31, 2024, none of the Constellation Warrants have been exercised.
Business Combination Earn-out
Under the terms of the Business Combination, upon Closing, the Sponsor and the selling shareholders of TWMH, TIG, and Alvarium became entitled to receive earn-out shares contingent on various share price milestones. Additionally, upon a change of control of the Company, the share price milestones will be deemed to have been met and all the Business Combination Earn-out Securities will be payable to the earn-out holders. The earn-out shares are precluded from being considered indexed to the Company’s own stock and are recognized as a liability at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of the earn-out shares was $22.9 million and $62.4 million, respectively. See Note 2 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) for additional detail.
AWMS Earn-out Liability
On August 2, 2023, the Company acquired the remaining 70% of the issued and outstanding ownership and membership interests of AWMS, increasing its interest from 30% to 100%. The AWMS Acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and the fair value of the total purchase consideration transferred was $16.8 million. The total purchase consideration transferred consists of cash consideration, equity consideration, deferred cash consideration, earn-out consideration, (or AWMS earn-out liability), and the payment of assumed liabilities. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the AWMS earn-out liability of $1.1 million and $1.1 million is reported in Earn-out liability, at fair value, in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, respectively. Since the AWMS earn-out liability meets the definition of a derivative, it is recorded at fair value as a derivative liability on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and measured at fair value at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, with changes in fair value to be recognized in Gain (loss) on earn-out liability in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and in Fair value of earn-out liability in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows in the period of change.
Indemnification Arrangements
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts that contain indemnities for related parties of the Company, persons acting on behalf of the Company or such related parties and third parties. The terms of the indemnities vary from contract to contract and the Company’s maximum exposure under these arrangements cannot be determined and has not been recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. As of March 31, 2024, the Company has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of material loss to be remote.
Critical Accounting Estimates
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP. In applying many of these accounting principles, we need to make assumptions, estimates, and/or judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses in our consolidated financial statements. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. These assumptions, estimates, and/or judgments, however, are both subjective and subject to
change, and actual results may differ from our assumptions and estimates. Actual results may also differ from our estimates and judgments due to risks and uncertainties and changing circumstances, including uncertainty in the current economic environment due to geopolitical tensions, changes in market conditions, or other relevant factors. If actual amounts are ultimately different from our estimates, the revisions are included in our results of operations for the period in which the actual amounts become known. For a summary of our significant accounting policies and estimates, see Note 2 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies), to our interim condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.
Estimation of Fair Values
Investments at Fair Value – External Strategic Managers: The fair values of our Investments in External Strategic Managers were determined using significant unobservable inputs. The assumptions used could have a material impact on the valuation of these assets and include our best estimates of expected future cash flows and an appropriate discount rate. Changes in the estimated fair values of these assets may have a material impact on our results of operations in any given period, as any decreases in these assets have a corresponding negative impact on our GAAP results of operations in the period in which the changes occur.
TRA Liability: We carry a portion of our TRA liability at fair value, as it is a contingent consideration related to the Business Combination. The valuation of the TRA liability is sensitive to our expectation of future cash savings that we may ultimately realize related to our tax goodwill and other intangible assets deductions. We then apply a discount rate that we believe is appropriate given the nature of and expected timing of payments of the liability. A decrease in the discount rate assumption would result in an increase in the fair value estimate of the liability, which would have a correspondingly negative impact on our US GAAP results of operations. However, payments under the TRA are ultimately only made to the extent we realize the offsetting cash savings on our income taxes due to the tax goodwill and other intangibles deduction.
Business Combination Earn-out Liability and AWMS Earn-out Liability: The fair values of our Business Combination Earn-out Securities liability and our AWMS earn-out liability were determined using various significant unobservable inputs. The assumptions used could have a material impact on the valuation of these liabilities, and include our best estimate of expected volatility, expected holding periods and appropriate discounts for lack of marketability. Changes in the estimated fair values of these liabilities may have material impacts on our results of operations in any given period, as any increases in these liabilities have a corresponding negative impact on our US GAAP results of operations in the period in which the changes occur. See Note 2 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) for additional details.
Equity-based Compensation: The Company issued stock grants to certain employees as bonus compensation. The fair value of the grants was determined based on the share price on the date of issuance.
Fair Value of Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed in Business Combinations: The determination of the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations involves significant judgment and estimation. We utilize various valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow approach and market approach, to assess the fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities. These valuation methodologies incorporate assumptions regarding future cash inflows and outflows, discount rates, useful lives of assets, market multiples, and the realization of tax assets. Additionally, we allocate the purchase price consideration among identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, considering any contingent consideration. The realization of tax assets is assessed based on historical performance, future taxable income projections, and applicable tax laws and regulations. Uncertainties and contingencies inherent in the fair value measurement process are carefully evaluated and disclosed as appropriate to ensure transparency in our financial reporting.
Fair Value of Reporting Units for Goodwill Impairment Testing: In assessing goodwill impairment, we determine the fair value of reporting units using established valuation methodologies, primarily the discounted cash flow approach and market approach. The income approach involves discounting future cash flows generated by the reporting units, considering key assumptions such as revenue growth rates, discount rates,
terminal value calculations, and market multiples. Goodwill is allocated to reporting units, and impairment is evaluated by comparing the carrying amount of goodwill to the fair value of the reporting units. We conduct regular assessments for triggering events or changes in circumstances that may necessitate goodwill impairment testing. These disclosures ensure stakeholders understand the methodologies, assumptions, and sensitivities involved in our goodwill impairment testing process.
We conduct sensitivity analyses on key inputs and assumptions used in fair value measurements and critical accounting estimates to assess the potential impact on financial results. Changes in assumptions, such as discount rates, growth rates, or market multiples, are carefully evaluated to understand their effect on the fair value of assets, liabilities, or reporting units. Our sensitivity analysis considers a range of potential outcomes and their implications on financial reporting. Mitigating factors and risk management strategies are employed to address uncertainties and enhance the reliability of our financial disclosures. These disclosures provide stakeholders with insight into the robustness of our valuation methodologies and the degree of uncertainty inherent in our financial reporting process.
Fair Value of Constellation Warrants: The fair value of our Constellation Warrants uses various significant unobservable inputs and was determined by using the Black-Scholes-Merton Model. The assumptions used could have a material impact on the valuation of these liabilities, and include our best estimate of expected volatility, expected holding periods and appropriate discounts for lack of marketability. Changes in the estimated fair values of these liabilities may have material impacts on our results of operations in any given period, as any increases in these liabilities have a corresponding negative impact on our US GAAP results of operations in the period in which the changes occur.
Income Taxes
Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes and in evaluating income tax positions, including evaluating uncertainties. We recognize the income tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation, based on the technical merits of the positions. The tax benefit is measured as the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. If a tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained, then no benefits of the position are recognized. The Company’s income tax positions are reviewed and evaluated quarterly to determine whether or not we have uncertain tax positions that require financial statement recognition or de-recognition.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences, using currently enacted tax rates, of differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period when the change is enacted. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Variable Interest Entities
The determination of whether to consolidate a VIE under US GAAP requires a significant amount of judgment concerning the degree of control over an entity by its holders of variable interests. To make these judgments, we conduct an analysis, on a case-by-case basis, of whether we are the primary beneficiary and are therefore required to consolidate an entity. We continually reconsider whether we should consolidate a VIE. Upon the occurrence of certain events, such as modifications to organizational documents and investment management agreements of our products, we will reconsider our conclusion regarding the status of an entity as a VIE. Our judgement when analyzing the status of an entity and whether we consolidate an entity could have a material impact on individual line items within our consolidated financial statements, as a change in our conclusion would have the effect of grossing up the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the entity being evaluated. In light of the relevantly insignificant direct and indirect investments into our products, the likelihood of a
reasonable change in our estimation and judgement would likely not result in a change in our conclusions to consolidate or not consolidate any VIEs to which we have exposure.
Impact of Changes in Accounting on Recent and Future Trends
The Company has considered all newly issued accounting guidance that is applicable to its operations and the preparation of its unaudited condensed consolidated statements, including those it has not yet adopted. We believe that none of the changes to US GAAP that went into effect during the three months ended March 31, 2024, or that have been issued but that we have not yet adopted have substantively impacted our recent trends or are expected to substantively impact our future trends.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Our primary exposure to market risk is related to our role as wealth management advisor to our investment products and the sensitivity to movements in the market value of their investments, including the effect on management fees and investment income.
Market Risk
The market price of investments may significantly fluctuate during the period of investment and should their value decline, our fees may decline accordingly. Investments may decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries represented in the securities markets. The value of an investment may decline due to general market conditions, which are not specifically related to such investment, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates, or adverse investor sentiment generally. It may also decline due to factors that affect a particular industry or industries, such as labor shortages or increased production costs and competitive conditions within an industry. The impact of changes in market risk on client specific liquidity or overall financial position, may result in client changing the asset holdings, including increasing or decreasing the non-billable portion of their asset portfolios. Such changes will also impact our fees.
Credit Risk
We are party to agreements providing where we provide services and such transactions contain an element of risk in the event that the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of such agreements. In such agreements, we depend on the counterparty to make payment or otherwise perform. We generally endeavor to minimize our risk of exposure through reviews of the financial condition of new clients and through collection of fees directly from client portfolios. For clients that generate fees from carried interest and/or preferred return, we periodically review the receivables for collectability and will make appropriate provision for credit losses, should circumstances warrant.
Interest Rate Risk
As of March 31, 2024, the Company had $187.5 million outstanding under our borrowing agreements, including $61.5 million outstanding on the Term Loan facility and $126.0 million outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility:
The interest rate on our financing agreements fluctuates with changes in 3-month and 6-month SOFR, which at March 31, 2024 were 5.41% and 5.74%, respectively. The weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings as of March 31, 2023, was 9.48%.
Based on the floating rate component of our financing agreements payable as of March 31, 2024, we estimate that a 100 basis point increase in interest rates would result in increased interest expense of approximately $1.9 million over the next 12 months.
Exchange Rate Risk
We and our funds hold investments that are denominated in foreign currencies that may be affected by movements in the rate of exchange between those currencies and the U.S. dollar. Movements in the exchange rate between currencies impact the management fees, carried interest and incentive fees earned by funds with fee paying AUM denominated in foreign currencies as well as by funds with fee paying AUM denominated in U.S. dollars that hold investments denominated in foreign currencies. Additionally, movements in the exchange rate impact operating expenses for our global offices that transact in foreign currencies and the revaluation of assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies, including cash balances and investments.
We monitor our exposure to exchange rate risks in the course of our regular operating activities, wherein we utilize payments received in foreign currencies to fulfill obligations in foreign currencies. When appropriate, we will use of derivative financial instruments to hedge the net foreign currency exposure from certain direct investments denominated in foreign currencies and the cash flow exposure from our foreign based subsidiaries.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of March 31, 2024. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, as further described below in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
As previously disclosed in Part II, Item 9 of our Annual Report, management identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting relating to the lack of sufficiently documented risk assessments, process level controls and information technology controls that support our financial statements and reporting. Further, management has commenced, but as of March 31, 2024 has not completed its efforts to design and implement a testing plan to determine the effectiveness of controls that support our financial statements and reporting. As a result, several specific material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting remain as of March 31, 2024, as discussed below.
Management is in the process of implementing a remediation plan for these material weaknesses, including, among other things, hiring additional accounting personnel, completing its efforts to design and implement process level and management review controls and to sufficiently document and implement policies to ensure financial statement disclosures are complete and accurate and to identify and address emerging risks. We cannot reasonably estimate the cost of such remediation plan at this time. We can give no assurance that such efforts will remediate these deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting or that additional material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting will not be identified in the future. Failure to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could result in errors in our consolidated financial statements that could result in a restatement of our financial statements, may subject us to litigation and investigations, and could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations, any of which could diminish investor confidence, cause a decline in the price of the Class A Common Stock and limit our ability to access capital markets.
The material weaknesses, if not remediated, could result in misstatements of accounts or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the annual consolidated financial statements or the interim condensed consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.
Our management anticipates that our internal control over financial reporting will not be effective until the above material weaknesses are remediated. If our remediation of these material weaknesses is not effective, or we experience additional material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting in the future, the accuracy and timing of our financial reporting may be adversely affected, we may be unable to maintain compliance with securities law requirements regarding timely filing of periodic reports in addition to the Nasdaq listing requirements, investors may lose confidence in our financial reporting, and the price of our common stock may decline as a result.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2024, covered by this Quarterly Report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we may be involved in various legal proceedings, lawsuits, and claims incidental to the conduct of its business, some of which may be material. Our businesses are also subject to extensive regulation, which may result in regulatory proceedings against us. To our knowledge, other than what we disclosed in the Litigation sections in Note 19 (Commitments and Contingencies) there are no material legal or regulatory proceedings currently pending or threatened against us.
On April 12, 2024, pre-action letters of claim were received by AFM UK and ARE from solicitors acting for Home REIT and its directors. This relates to the historic management of Home REIT by certain legacy Alvarium entities. In the letters, Home REIT and its directors state their intention to bring claims against those entities: (i) for a 100% contribution to any losses incurred by Home REIT or its directors if current or former shareholders in Home REIT issue claims against them as outlined in the preceding paragraph; and (ii) on a standalone basis, for losses they assert have been incurred by Home REIT as a result of: alleged breaches of contractual, tortious and fiduciary duties, unlawful means conspiracy and deceit by AFM UK and/or AHRA, and, in the case of ARE, they assert that ARE is liable to Home REIT for any actions or omissions of AHRA under the UK’s appointed representative regime. The pre-action letters do not provide details of the overall amounts being claimed from either AFM UK or ARE (whether jointly or severally), and it is not possible at this point in time for us to reliably assess what the quantum of such claims might be, or AFM UK’s and ARE’s potential exposure, though they may potentially be material to the Company. If any litigation or other action is commenced by Home REIT and/or its directors against AFM UK and/or ARE, we intend to defend ourselves in any such matters vigorously. However, if any claims were commenced, we would anticipate that such claims may involve complex questions of law and fact and we may incur significant legal expenses in defending such litigation.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
This section supplements and updates certain of the information found under Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report, based on information currently known to us and recent developments since the date of the Annual Report filing. The matters discussed below should be read in conjunction with the risks described in Part I. Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report. However, the risks and uncertainties that we face are not limited to those described below and those set forth in the Annual Report. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also adversely affect our business and the trading price of our common stock.
We may face damage to our professional reputation and legal liability if our services are not regarded as satisfactory or for other reasons.
In recent years, the volume of claims and amount of damages claimed in litigation and regulatory proceedings against financial advisors and investment managers has been increasing. Our asset management and advisory activities may expose us to the risk of significant legal liabilities to our clients and third parties, including our clients’ stockholders or beneficiaries, under securities or other laws and regulations for, for example, materially false or misleading statements made in connection with securities and other transactions. We make investment decisions on behalf of our clients that could result in substantial losses. Since November 2022, Home REIT and AHRA, which served as its investment advisor until June 30, 2023, have been the subject of allegations regarding Home REIT’s operations, stemming from a report issued by a short seller and Home REIT has seen its financial performance materially decline. AlTi was formed on January 3, 2023 through a business combination transaction that included certain legacy Alvarium companies. Although AHRA was sold prior to the business combination and has never been a subsidiary of AlTi, we were required under GAAP to consolidate its results in our financial statements until June 30, 2023, when it was deconsolidated. HLIF pursues a similar investment strategy to Home REIT and its financial performance has similarly declined significantly since the end of 2021. The historic management of these funds by certain legacy Alvarium entities is now the subject of investigations by the UK FCA and, in the case of Home REIT, potential claims are being asserted by
its current and former shareholders and, separately, by Home REIT and its directors. We no longer provide services to Home REIT and are in the process of transitioning the management of HLIF. Once this is completed the legacy Alvarium companies that provided these services will cease operating. Notwithstanding this, we or our subsidiaries may potentially suffer reputational damage from the allegations concerning the management of Home REIT or HLIF. Further, we may be subject to the risk of legal and regulatory liabilities or actions alleging breach of regulatory rules and/or principles, negligence, misconduct (including deceit), breach of fiduciary duty or breach of contract. In particular, although the UK FCA’s investigations concerning the historic management of Home REIT and HLIF have only recently commenced and their outcomes cannot be known or anticipated as at the date of this Quarterly Report, any financial penalties or other adverse outcomes resulting from these investigations adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Similarly, if any litigation or other action is commenced against AFM UK and/or ARE in connection with Home REIT, whilst it is not possible at this point in time for us to reliably assess the quantum of such claims, or AFM UK’s and ARE’s potential exposure, such claims may potentially be material to the Company and, although we would intend to defend ourselves in any such claims, an adverse outcome could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. These risks often may be difficult to assess or quantify and their existence and magnitude often remain unknown for substantial periods of time. We may incur significant legal expenses in defending litigation and responding to the regulatory investigations. In addition, negative publicity and press speculation about us, our investment activities or the private markets in general, whether or not based in truth, or litigation or regulatory action against us or any third-party managers recommended by us or involving us may tarnish our reputation and harm our ability to attract and retain clients. Substantial legal or regulatory liability could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations or cause significant reputational harm to us, which could seriously harm our business.
We may face damage to our professional reputation and legal liability if our services are not regarded as satisfactory or for other reasons.
In recent years, the volume of claims and amount of damages claimed in litigation and regulatory proceedings against financial advisors and investment managers has been increasing. Our asset management and advisory activities may expose us to the risk of significant legal liabilities to our clients and third parties, including our clients’ stockholders or beneficiaries, under securities or other laws and regulations for, for example, materially false or misleading statements made in connection with securities and other transactions. We make investment decisions on behalf of our clients that could result in substantial losses. Since November 2022, Home REIT and AHRA, which served as its investment advisor until June 30, 2023, have been the subject of allegations regarding Home REIT’s operations, stemming from a report issued by a short seller and Home REIT has seen its financial performance materially decline. AlTi was formed on January 3, 2023 through a business combination transaction that included certain legacy Alvarium companies. Although AHRA was sold prior to the business combination and has never been a subsidiary of AlTi, we were required under GAAP to consolidate its results in our financial statements until June 30, 2023, when it was deconsolidated.
