Forward Guidance
There is no explicit forward guidance in the provided data. Given the revenue decline YoY but modest QoQ growth, near-term upside would likely hinge on asset inflows, product diversification, and cost discipline. Key factors to monitor include: (1) AUM trends and fee-related revenue resilience, (2) expense control to convert gross margin into sustaining operating profitability, (3) capital allocation decisions (dividends vs. buybacks) supported by the firm’s solid liquidity, and (4) any strategic initiatives around new funds, ETFs, or partnerships that could broaden client reach.
