Amounts disclosed throughout this document for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2023, relate to AlTi Global, Inc, the Successor company in the business combination. Amounts disclosed throughout this document for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2022 relate to TWMH, the predecessor company. Due to the Business Combination and the conforming of significant accounting policies, the results of operations, cash flows, and other financial information for the Successor Period are not comparable to the Predecessor periods.
Business Combination
The Registrant was initially incorporated in the Cayman Islands as Cartesian Growth Capital, a special purpose acquisition company. In anticipation of the Business Combination:
•The holders of the equity of the TIG Entities contributed their TWMH and TIG equity to Umbrella making TWMH and the TIG wholly owned subsidiaries of Umbrella.
•Alvarium reorganized such that it became the wholly owned indirect subsidiary of AlTi Global Topco.
•Cartesian SPAC formed Umbrella Merger Sub.
Pursuant to the Business Combination on January 3, 2023:
•The Registrant was redomiciled as a Delaware corporation and changed its name to Alvarium Tiedemann Holdings, Inc. Effective April 19, 2023, Alvarium Tiedemann Holdings, Inc. changed its name to AlTi Global, Inc.
•The Registrant acquired all the outstanding share capital of AlTi Global Topco.
•Umbrella Merger Sub, LLC merged into Umbrella with AlTi Global Capital, LLC, formerly known as Alvarium Tiedemann Capital, LLC as the surviving entity.
•The Company acquired 51 % of the equity interests of Umbrella, while the existing TWMH and TIG rollover shareholders hold a 49 % economic interest in Umbrella. Umbrella holds 100 % of the equity interests of TWMH, TIG, and Alvarium.

•Through a series of intercompany transactions, AlTi was restructured to reflect the final structure depicted below:
Capital Structure
The Registrant has the following classes of shares and other instruments outstanding:
•Class A Common Stock – Shares of Class A Common Stock that are publicly traded. Class A shareholders are entitled to declared dividends from shares of Class A Common Stock. As of September 30, 2023, the shares of Class A Common Stock represent 55 % of the total voting power of all shares.
•Class B Common Stock – Shares of Class B Common Stock that are not publicly traded. Class B shareholders are entitled to distributions declared by the Company’s board of directors. The distributions are paid by Umbrella. As of September 30, 2023, the shares of Class B Common Stock represent 45 % of the total voting power of all shares.
•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 3, 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 4,864,275

Segments
Our business is organized into two operating segments: Wealth Management and Asset Management. 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 September 30, 2023, this segment had $48.5 billion 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 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.
Family Office Services (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.

(Prior to January 3, 2023, Tiedemann Wealth Management Holdings)
Asset Management
Asset Management 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 September 30, 2023, this platform had $7.7 billion 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 September 30, 2023, our real estate co-investment platform had deployed more than $7.5 billion of capital (inclusive of capital raised for our public and private real estate funds), of which approximately 14 % 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 September 30, 2023, this business had approximately $12.0 billion of AUM/AUA.
Fund Management
Our real estate fund management business manages two funds based in the United Kingdom, LXi REIT plc (“LXi”), a publicly traded real estate investment trust, and Home Long Income Fund (“HLIF”) a private fund. Fees from our real estate fund management business are earned from management and advisory services.
Exit from management of Home REIT PLC
Prior to the Business Combination, AlTi RE Limited, formerly known as Alvarium RE Limited (“ARE”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Alvarium, entered into an agreement to sell 100 % of the equity of Alvarium Home REIT Advisors Ltd. (“AHRA”), the advisor to the publicly-traded fund Home REIT Plc (“Home REIT”), to a newly formed entity (“NewCo”) owned by the management of AHRA, for aggregate consideration approximately equal to $29 million. 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
18
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(Prior to January 3, 2023, Tiedemann Wealth Management Holdings)
Business Combination, an intangible asset was recognized related to the investment advisory agreement between AHRA and Home REIT.
On June 30, 2023, the Company entered into a series of agreements that resulted in the deconsolidation of AHRA from the Asset Management 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 Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of June 30, 2023. The deconsolidation resulted in an intangible asset impairment charge of $29.4 million, which is recorded in Impairment loss on goodwill and intangible assets in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Assets managed by AHRA, however, have been excluded from the Company’s AUM/AUA metrics since January 3, 2023.

(Prior to January 3, 2023, Tiedemann Wealth Management Holdings)
(c)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 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.

(d)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 to 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 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. There were no
Our FOS business is also included in this 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,
21
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(Prior to January 3, 2023, Tiedemann Wealth Management Holdings)
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.
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.
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. 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 ( 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.
(e)Cash and Cash Equivalents
(f)Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents
Restricted cash and cash equivalents consist of balances that are restricted as to withdrawal or usage.
As of September 30, 2023 restricted cash and cash equivalents amounted to $3.4 million and are included in the line item Cash and cash equivalents on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. 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.

(Prior to January 3, 2023, Tiedemann Wealth Management Holdings)
(g)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.
(h)Foreign Currency and Transactions
(i)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.

(j)Other assets
(k)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 nonoperating income (expense) 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 Securities.” Changes in fair value are recorded in net gains (losses) in 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 net gain (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 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.
(l)Leases
24
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(Prior to January 3, 2023, Tiedemann Wealth Management Holdings)
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. 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.
(m)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

(x)Segment Reporting
Our business is organized into two operating segments: Wealth Management and Asset Management. 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
Our Wealth Management services principally consist of investment management and advisory services, trusts and administrative services, and family office services. Our Wealth Management client base includes HNWIs, 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 AUM or AUA (as applicable). As of September 30, 2023, this segment had $48.5 billion 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, and asset classes including private equity, private debt, hedge funds, real estate, and other assets through highly experienced third-party managers, who may be hard to access.
Trusts and Administration Services
The trusts 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.

(aa)Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which modifies ASC 805 to require an acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with ASC 606. At the acquisition date, an acquirer should account for the related revenue contracts in accordance with ASC 606 as if it had originated the contracts. Under current GAAP, an acquirer generally recognizes such items at fair value on the acquisition date. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2022 and applied the guidance prospectively to business combinations that occurred after this date. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The amendments in this update clarify the guidance in ASC 820 when measuring the fair value of an equity security subject to contractual sale restrictions and introduce new disclosure requirements related to such equity securities. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the impact of this guidance to be material to its condensed 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. The Company does not believe that any such guidance has or will have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations.
(3)Business Combinations and Divestitures
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
31
AlTi Global, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(Prior to January 3, 2023, Tiedemann Wealth Management Holdings)
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 preliminary 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 on certain dates designated by the Company 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 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 either predecessor or successor financial statement periods. “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 Statements of Operations. The Predecessor incurred $1.0 million of acquisition-related costs during the three months ended March 31, 2022. 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

(Prior to January 3, 2023, Tiedemann Wealth Management Holdings)
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 Statements 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. See Note 2 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) for additional information.

The consideration transferred is subject to customary closing adjustments in the post-combination period. While the valuation of consideration transferred is substantially completed, fair value estimates related to the consideration transferred are subject to adjustment for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as additional information becomes available. Valuations subject to adjustment include, but are not limited to, the Tax Receivable Agreement and Business Combination Earn-out consideration as management continues to review the estimated fair values and evaluate the assumed tax position. When the valuation is final, any changes to the preliminary valuation of consideration transferred could result in adjustments to identified intangibles and goodwill. The fair values of consideration transferred is expected to be finalized during the remeasurement period, which ends on December 31, 2023. During the period from January 3, 2023 to September 30, 2023, there were no measurement period adjustments made to purchase consideration transferred.

For the period from January 3, 2023 to September 30, 2023, cash and cash equivalents at the beginning of the period of $194.1 million included the proceeds from the PIPE Investors related to the private placement issuances, remaining cash held in the trust account, and the beginning balance sheet cash from each of Alvarium, TIG, and TWMH.
While the valuation of acquired assets and liabilities is substantially complete, fair value estimates are subject to adjustment for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as additional information becomes available. Valuations subject to adjustment include, but are not limited to, equity method investments, intangible assets, and the Tax Receivable Agreement liability, as management continues to review the estimated fair values and evaluate the assumed tax position. The fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is expected to be finalized during the measurement period, which ends no later than December 31, 2023.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company made certain measurement period adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocation, which resulted in an increase to goodwill of $19.2 million. The increase in goodwill was due to a $21.6 million decrease in the fair value of acquired intangible assets, a $5.4 million decrease in the fair value of acquired equity method investments, offset by a $6.4 million decrease to deferred tax liabilities, a $0.8 million increase in Management/advisory fees receivable, a $0.3 million decrease in Other liabilities, a $0.2 million increase in Accounts payable and accrued expenses, and a

$0.1 million increase in Other assets, that arose from the measurement period adjustments. Additionally, the Company made certain measurement period adjustments to the opening equity balance as a result of the Business Combination, which resulted in a decrease to opening additional paid-in capital of $1.3 million and an immaterial decrease to non-controlling interest in subsidiaries as of January 3, 2023. The measurement period adjustments were a result of the change in net assets described earlier.
The fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are expected to be finalized during the measurement period, which ends no later than December 31, 2023.
There is no income statement impact of the measurement period adjustments during the period from July 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023, because the amortization expense relating to intangible assets was adjusted in the prior quarter, and equity method investments are reported on a lag basis.
Fair Value of Net Assets Acquired and Intangibles
With the exception of operating right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities accounted for under Topic 842, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC 805, the assets and liabilities were recorded at their respective fair values as of January 3, 2023. The Company developed the fair value of intangible assets, which include trade names, customer relationships, investment management agreements, developed technology and backlog, using various techniques including discounted cash flow, relief from royalty, multi-period excess earnings, and a Monte Carlo simulation approach. The Company developed the fair value of equity method investments using various techniques including discounted cash flow and a guideline public company approach. The investments at fair value and earn-in consideration are carried at fair value and no adjustment was made. For all other major assets and liabilities acquired, the Company determined that book value approximated fair value.
Goodwill is comprised of expected synergies for the combined operations and the assembled workforce acquired in the Business Combination, which does not qualify as a separately recognized intangible asset. Goodwill is allocated between the two reporting segments: Wealth Management and Asset Management. The initial goodwill allocation between Wealth Management and Asset Management at the acquisition date was $293.7 million and $250.2 million, respectively.

Alvarium Home REIT Advisors Ltd
On June 30, 2023, the Company entered into a series of agreements that resulted in the deconsolidation of AHRA from the Asset Management 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 Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of June 30, 2023. The deconsolidation resulted in an intangible asset impairment charge of $29.4 million, which is recorded in Impairment loss on goodwill and intangible assets in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Assets managed by AHRA, however, have been excluded from the Company’s AUM/AUA metrics since January 3, 2023.

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 10 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 Company recognized an expense for the earn-ins of $2.4 million and $0.7 million for the period from July 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023 and the period from July 1, 2022 to September 30, 2022, respectively, and $4.5 million and $2.2 million for the period from January 3, 2023 to September 30, 2023 and the period from January 1, 2022 to September 30, 2022, respectively, which is included in Compensation and employee benefits in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
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. This contingent consideration is recorded as a liability of $1.7 million as of September 30, 2023 and $1.5 million as of December 31, 2022 in the “Earn-in consideration payable” line of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition.
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 $1.2

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 1.0 % and 5.1 % for the periods from July 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023 and from January 3, 2023 to September 30, 2023, respectively, and 13.3 % and 25.9 % for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. 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 September 30, 2023, 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 September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, 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 2 Valuation Techniques
The financial instruments classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy is an interest rate swap. The valuation techniques used to value financial instruments classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
•The interest rate swap is valued based on observable values of underlying interest rates.
Level 3 Valuation Techniques
As the Company exercised significant judgement over unobservable inputs, the fair values of these financial instruments are considered Level 3 measurements:
•The Company utilized a Monte Carlo simulation to measure the Business Combination Earn-out and TRA liabilities. This simulation uses rates to appropriately capture the risk associated with each obligation. The Company adjusts the liabilities to fair value each reporting period based on certain metrics within the respective agreements. Changes in fair value are 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. Refer to the valuation methodologies table below for further analysis of level 3 valuations.
•The Company utilized a Monte Carlo simulation to measure the earn-out liability associated with the acquisition of AIMS. The valuation of the AIMS earn-out liability captures the risk of the obligation through financial metrics adjusted for market risk. Changes in the fair value are recognized in other expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Refer to the valuation methodologies table below for further analysis of level 3 valuations.
•The fair value of the Earn-in consideration is based on expected future revenues discounted at the revenue discount rate less the risk-free rate of return. The Company adjusts the liabilities to fair value each reporting period based on certain metrics within the respective agreements. Changes in the fair value are recognized in other expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Refer to the valuation methodologies table below for further analysis of level 3 valuations.
•The Company utilized a Discounted Cash Flow simulation 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.

(1) 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 Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

The fair value of earn-in consideration is based on expected future revenues discounted at the revenue discount rate less the risk-free rate of return, which approximated 6.8 % as of December 31, 2022. It is classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. As of December 31, 2022, carrying value approximates fair value.
(8)Equity Method Investments
As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $27.9 million and an immaterial amount of equity method investments, respectively, recorded within equity method investments on the condensed consolidated statements of financial position. In accordance with GAAP, certain equity method investees do not account for both their financial assets and liabilities under fair value measures; therefore, the Company’s investment in such equity method investees may not represent fair value.
For the periods from July 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023 and from January 3, 2023 to September 30, 2023, the Company recognized $0.0 million and $0.3 million, respectively, of impairment on its equity method investments. Additionally, as part of the Business Combination, AlTi acquired the right to carried interest on several projects. These are held as assets at cost less impairment. We therefore assess for indicators of impairment every quarter, and as a result of a number of factors, namely market conditions, we recognized an impairment to these assets of $1.8 million and $3.6 million for the periods from July 1, 2023 to September 30,

Investments at fair value consist of investments for which the fair value option has been elected. The primary reasons for electing the fair value option are to:
•Reflect economic events in earnings on a timely basis;
•Mitigate volatility in earnings from using different measurement attributes; and
•Address simplification and cost-benefit considerations
Such election is irrevocable and is applied on an investment-by-investment basis at initial recognition or at other eligible election dates. Changes in the fair value of such instruments are recognized in Investment income (loss) in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

The Company has presented financial results and applied its accounting policies for the period beginning January 1, 2022 under ASC 842 for the predecessor and successor periods. 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.

Further, 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 balance sheet 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 Asset Management segment was impaired. Accordingly, the Company performed a goodwill impairment test, which compared the estimated fair value of the Asset Management 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 Asset Management reporting unit exceeded its estimated fair value by $153.6 million. Consequently, the Company recognized a goodwill impairment charge for this amount in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the period ended September 30, 2023.
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.

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 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 September 30, 2023, unfunded commitments on the Revolving Credit Facility amounted to $71.8 million, and the weighted-average interest rate the outstanding borrowings of this facility was 8.5 %. 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 September 30, 2023, total outstanding debt, net of unamortized deferred financing costs amounted to $172.8 million.

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.
A copy of the First Amendment is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and incorporated herein by reference.
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.
A copy of the Second Amendment is included as Exhibit 10.2 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and incorporated herein by reference.
The Company has initiated discussions with the administrative agent regarding potentially making further amendments to the Credit Agreement. The Company is evaluating various options in relation to the Credit Agreement, including to partially or fully repay the debt outstanding or to make further amendments to its terms. This evaluation is being made in connection with a broader review of the Company’s capital planning for the short to medium term, including its needs for sources of capital to complete acquisitions to facilitate growth, its business strategy as it pertains to how certain of its business activities are funded, as well more generally as to how it should optimize its capital structure.
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 November 14, 2023, 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 consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a

Tax Receivable Agreements
On the Closing Date, the Company entered into the Tax Receivable Agreement. The TRA generally provides for certain payments and makes certain arrangements with respect to certain tax benefits to be derived by the Company and its subsidiaries as the result of the Business Combination and future exchanges by such TWMH Members, TIG GP Members and TIG MGMT Members of their Paired Interests for Class A Common Stock in accordance with the Umbrella LLC Agreement and the making of payments under the TRA.
Pursuant to the terms of the TRA, the Company generally will pay an amount equal to 85 % of the net tax benefit that it receives from such exchanges to the TWMH Members, the TIG GP Members and the TIG MGMT Members. The costs and expenses of administering the TRA will be borne 15 % by the Company and 85 % by the TWMH Members, the TIG GP Members and the TIG MGMT Members, or in certain instances, all or a portion of such 85 % amount may be borne by Umbrella.
The TRA is recognized on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as the TRA Liability. The value of the TRA Liability was $18.0 million as of September 30, 2023. The Company carries $14.3 million of its TRA Liability at fair value, as it is contingent consideration from the Business Combination. The remaining portion related to the TRA exchange of $3.7 million is recorded at its carrying value. The Company recognized a gain of $0.8 million and a loss of $(1.3 ) million for the period from July 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023 and the period from January 3, 2023 to September 30, 2023, respectively, which is recorded in Gain (loss) on TRA in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
On August 31, 2023, holders of Class B Common Stock exchanged a portion of such Class B Units to 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 B Common Stock exchanged at the time of the transaction.

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 September 30, 2023, the fair value of the Business Combination Earn-out Liability was $45.5 million.

(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 Registrant. Potentially dilutive instruments are only considered in the calculation to the extent they would be dilutive.
| For the Period | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| July 1, 2023 – September 30, 2023 (Successor) | January 3, 2023 – September 30, 2023 (Successor) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

Holbein Earn-In Shares (3) | 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) Prior to the Business Combination, the Company issued warrants to purchase Class A Shares. As of June 30, 2023, all warrants were exchanged for Class A Shares and no warrants are outstanding as of September 30, 2023.
(3) During the period July 1, 2023 to September 30, 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. At September 30, 2023, 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 periods July 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023 and January 3, 2023 to September 30, 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 periods ended July 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023 and January 3, 2023 to September 30, 2023. For the periods ending March 31, 2023, and June 30, 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).

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.

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 September 30, 2023, the liability associated with the TRA was approximately $18.0 million and consisted entirely of a liability recorded under ASC 805 associated with the Business Combination, and as such, is presented at fair value through the discount of future anticipated payments. 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.
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 Common Stock exchanged a portion of such Class B Units to 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 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 September 30, 2023, 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 $18.0 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 September 30, 2023, the fair value of the earn-out shares was $45.5 million. See Note 2 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) for additional detail.
AIMS Earn-out Liability
On August 2, 2023, the Company acquired the remaining 70 % of the issued and outstanding ownership and membership interests of AIMS, increasing its interest from 30 % to 100 %. The AIMS 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 AIMS earn-out liability), and the payment of assumed liabilities. As of September 30, 2023, the AIMS earn-out liability of $2.7 million is reported in Other liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Since the AIMS 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, the Company may be involved in legal actions in the ordinary course of business. Although there can be no assurance of the outcome of such legal actions, in the opinion of management, the Company does not have a potential liability related to any current legal proceeding or claim that would individually or in the aggregate materially affects its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
Home REIT is a real estate investment trust company listed on the London Stock Exchange. Alvarium Fund Managers (UK) Limited (“AFM UK”) is its alternative investment fund manager 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 AHRA was sold. As such, AHRA was not acquired by the Company pursuant to the Business Combination. Accordingly, AHRA has never been a part of AlTi. 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 Financial Conduct Authority).
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. Following the publication of the short seller report, a UK law firm announced that it was seeking current and former shareholders of Home REIT to potentially bring claims in connection with the allegations. The announcement states that claims will likely be brought against Home REIT itself, its directors, and AFM UK.
On October 6, 2023, a pre-action letter of claim was received by, among others, 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). The pre-action letter was sent by law firm acting on behalf of a group of current and former shareholders in Home REIT. The pre-action letter does not provide details of the quantum 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 it may potentially be material to the Company. If any litigation or other action is commenced against AFM UK and/or ARE, our current assessment is that any such claims or actions should be defended and would be unlikely to succeed. 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. We will continue to assess any potential litigation or regulatory risk associated with the above-mentioned matters.
We maintain insurance policies which are intended to provide coverage for various claims against us, subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant policy. Such policies include, among other things, indemnification for legal expenses. We also have access to credit facilities to support the business, if required. These arrangements support our assessment of going concern and of our ability to address any potential financial impact arising from the above.

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:
•we manage or advise approximately $68.2 billion in combined assets;
•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;
•we structure, arrange, and provide our network of investors with co-investment opportunities in a variety of alternative assets which are either managed intra-group or by carefully selected managers with a proven track record in the relevant asset class;
•we manage and advise both public and private investment funds; and
•we invest in and support financial services professionals that we believe have the experience to establish, operate, and/or grow specialist financial services firms.
Our business is global, with over 490 professionals operating in 22 cities in 10 countries across three continents as of September 30, 2023.
The services that we provide form a complex, but we believe 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. We have an acquisitive strategy for inorganic growth through acquisitions and joint ventures and believe the complementary nature of our services positions us well for organic growth across our business lines. We also believe we are well positioned to capitalize on market trends and dynamics that we see facing our industry and the clients, investors, and businesses we serve.
Fee Structure
Management/Advisory Fees
Our fees for our investment advisory services, family office, trust, and related administrative services are structured to align our financial incentives with those of our clients to promote the issuance of objective advice in our Wealth Management segment. The majority of our fees are generated from our discretionary asset management and are calculated from the value of the assets we manage for our clients. Fee revenues increase as our clients’ assets grow in value, and vice versa.
We charge a single asset-based advisory fee based on the size of the asset base and the scope of work for the assets we are responsible for managing. Fees are charged using either an average daily balance or ending
68
balance, quarterly in arrears. Fees, which vary depending upon the level and complexity of client assets, are calculated based on each client’s rate applied to the fair market value of the billable assets or the fund’s underlying net asset value at quarter-end.
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.
We also earn management fees in our Asset Management segment through our alternatives platform (compensation for internal fund management and advisory services), public real estate fund management fees, and private real estate recurring fees. The management fees for the alternatives platform are calculated using approximately 0.75% to 1.5% of the net asset value of the funds’ underlying investments. Management fees are normally received in advance each month or quarter.
For the public real estate strategy, we generate fees from managing and advising real estate investment funds. Our fees from managing and advising these vehicles are contained in management and advisory contracts relating to the relevant fund and are calculated on a sliding scale of percentages of the net asset value or the market capitalization of the relevant fund. As sponsor on 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.
FOS Fees
FOS fees are generated from our families of sufficient size and complexity that require such services. 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, FATCA, and other non-investment advisory services. FOS fees are reviewed annually.
Incentive Fees
Our Asset Management event-driven strategy and certain accounts within our international Wealth Management business are entitled to receive incentive fees if certain performance returns have been achieved as stipulated in our governing documents. 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. The majority of fees for the event-driven strategy are typically recognized in the fourth quarter of each calendar year.
Other Transaction Fees
The Company also generates arrangement fees in its co-investment division by arranging private debt or equity financing, generally in connection with a real estate 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.
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 a strong start to the year with positive gains across equities and fixed income to the end of July 2023, global equity and fixed income markets declined in August and September to lead to an overall third quarter decline in returns. The S&P 500 and the MSCI All Country World Index decreased by 3.3% and 3.5%
69
respectively, in the quarter. Fixed income markets were mostly negative as bond prices fell and yields rose. The 10-year U.S. Treasury bond yields increased by over 0.7% over the quarter to a 16-year high. As a result, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index declined by 3.2% in the third quarter of 2023, while the Barclays Global Aggregate Index declined by 3.6% over the same time frame. Though it is worth noting that US corporate bonds, gold and hedge funds generally outperformed equities and government bonds during this period.
The main driver of the negative performance in stocks and government bonds over the quarter was the hawkish comments from the Federal Reserve that short-term interest rates need to remain ‘higher for longer’ to continue to bring down inflation. In other words, a restrictive policy stance will remain in place until the Federal Reserve and other Central Banks achieve their stated inflation targets of 2%. Investors were also unnerved by the expected size of the US fiscal deficit in 2023 as announced by the Congressional Budget Office and the need for large issuance across Treasury maturities. Rising oil prices on the back of The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, or OPEC, led production cuts, a strong US dollar and more recently in October geopolitical risk in connection with events in the Middle East have contributed to negative market returns and sentiment. The combination of these factors weighed on investors’ expectations around forward-looking growth and earnings.
Our fee-based revenue streams are driven by the value of clients’ portfolio holdings, in the case of Wealth Management, or the performance of our varied funds and direct investments in our Asset Management segment. The overall level of revenues in these businesses, however, does not correlate completely with changes in global equity and fixed income markets.
In Wealth Management, 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. Client portfolios also include holdings such as gold, credit and hedge funds that outperformed over the quarter, and in some cases, have exposure to private markets which are less sensitive to the daily fluctuations of public markets. Some of our international wealth client assets are based on a fixed fee model, which does not change with market conditions. 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 ultra-high net worth client base generally does not need to draw down from their portfolios to support day-to-day living needs and 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 Asset Management, the lion share 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 event-driven strategy performed well during the third quarter. However, this is not captured in our Q3 earnings or EBITDA, as GAAP only permits recognition of incentive fees when they are fully crystallized. We expect to recognize fees commensurate with this performance in Q4 should current market conditions be sustained through year-end.
Rising interest rates have had an impact on our public and private real estate assets. The higher cost of capital environment, rising costs of construction and declining real estate prices are negatively impacting some of the real estate segments in which we operate. This has impacted the price at which our public real estate vehicle trades in the market, which saw an average decline in price of 7% over the quarter, which impacted the level of management fees that we earn. These fees, however, only represent 8.4% of total company fee revenues. 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.
It should also be noted that we do not hedge corporate currency risk associated with client portfolio and investor holdings across global markets. Hence, as we report our revenues in US dollars, the translation impact from
70
changes in the value of currencies outside the US dollar can impact our results in any given financial reporting period.
During the third quarter, we continued to make progress on our strategic initiatives to set the Company up for the future. Some of these initiatives, particularly the work to restructure and reposition certain businesses, have impacted our GAAP earnings, but are consistent with our goal of simplifying the business with a focus on recurring revenues.
We have continued to right-size the organization, simplify our business lines, and initiate processes to reduce the number of our regulated entities. We’ve done this while securing important client wins and adding key revenue-generating talent. Since the beginning of the year, we have reported healthy AUM/AUA growth amidst a pressured market environment, particularly in the third quarter.
We firmly believe that the combination of Wealth Management and Asset Management differentiates us from pure-play firms in both sectors and provides a growing base of recurring and diversified revenues. On a trailing-twelve-month basis, total AUM/AUA increased 13%. And within Wealth Management, these have grown 23% in the last year validating the attractiveness of our global, holistic wealth proposition in the eyes of our target clients.
We generated revenues of $49 million, 97% of which were recurring revenues, essentially flat to the second quarter when removing revenues from AHRA, that were included in the second quarter, but we exited the business effective June 30, 2023. Year to date, we have generated revenues of nearly $160 million. We believe these results, generated largely through organic client wins, are starting to reflect the power of our franchise, which will continue to flow to an improved bottom line as we look forward to 2024.
Despite these top-line results, we are reporting a GAAP net loss of $171 million for the quarter, primarily due to a non-cash goodwill impairment charge that is largely related to decisions taken this year to restructure or exit unprofitable transaction-oriented business lines in our Asset Management segment. The results also include several other non-cash items that negatively impacted GAAP earnings. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA was negative $3 million in the quarter, resulting in year-to-date EBITDA of $19 million.
Despite what has been a challenging quarter, our core businesses are performing well. Based on the initiatives already undertaken this year and those that we expect to embark on in connection with the 2024 budgeting process that was recently initiated, we expect operating expenses to continue to trend downward in the fourth quarter and during 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 GAAP results and Adjusted EBITDA.
Non-Comparability of Predecessor Period
Our results for the three and nine month periods of 2022 reflect only the results of TWMH and do not include the results of the TIG Entities, Alvarium, or Cartesian Growth Capital. Therefore, prior period amounts are not comparable to current period. Please see “Results of Operations” and “Reconciliation of Consolidated GAAP Financial Measures to Certain Non-GAAP Measures” for a detailed discussion of the underlying drivers of our results, including the accretive impacts of the Business Combination.
Managing Business Performance and Key Financial Measures
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA as non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA is derived from and reconciled to, but not equivalent to, its most directly comparable GAAP measure of net income (loss). Adjusted Net Income represents net income (loss) before taxes plus (a) equity-settled share-based
71
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-GAAP measures, as well as a reconciliation of these measures to the most comparable measure in accordance with GAAP, see “Reconciliation of Consolidated GAAP Financial Measures to Certain Non-GAAP Measures.”
The following tables present the non-US GAAP financial measures for the periods indicated:

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: $37.6 billion AUA: $68.2 billion | ||||||||
Wealth Management AUM: $32.9 billion AUA: $48.5 billion | Asset Management AUM: $4.7 billion AUA: $19.7 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:

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.

Asset Management - AUM/AUA
The Company’s Asset Management AUM includes assets managed in public real estate investment fund (LXi REIT plc, “LXi”) and private real estate investment fund (Home Long Income Fund, “HLIF”) real estate investment funds ($2.2 billion) from which we generate fee revenue. The Company’s reported value of these assets are either of net asset value (in the case of HLIF) or the market capitalization (in the case of LXi). The AUM calculation also includes the Alternatives platform strategy. AUM in this strategy refers to assets on which the Company provides continuous and regular billable management services as a function of their TIG Arbitrage strategy ($2.5 billion).
For our co-investment real estate strategy, we include the value of our private market direct and co-investment real estate investments in our AUA ($9.8 billion). This amount is included in our Real Estate - Public and Private table below. The AUA of our alternatives platform additionally includes the value of the assets managed by TIG’s External Strategic Managers in the strategies of Real Estate Bridge Lending, European Long/Short Equity and Asian Credit ($5.2 billion total).

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
76
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 our 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 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 increase in management and advisory fees during the period from July 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023 compared to the period to July 1, 2022 to September 30, 2022 was driven primarily by a $26.5 million increase in revenue from the inclusion of TIG and Alvarium post Business Combination.
Incentive fees. The increase in incentive fees during the period from July 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023 compared to the period from July 1, 2022 to September 30, 2022 was driven by a $0.9 million accretive impact of the inclusion of Alvarium and TIG’s incentive fees post Business Combination.
Distributions from investments. The increase in distributions from investments during the period from July 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023 compared to the period from July 1, 2022 to September 30, 2022 was driven by a $2.6 million accretive impact of the inclusion of TIG’s distributions from investments. Such impact included $2.6 million of revenue and profit share generated from management fees from TIG's External Strategic Managers, which are recurring in nature. The impact also includes distributions from shares of incentive fees crystallized from these managers.
Other fees / income. The increase in other fees / income during the period from July 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023 compared to the period from July 1, 2022 to September 30, 2022 was driven by a $0.7 million accretive impact of the inclusion of Alvarium’s other fees / income post Business Combination.

Expenses
Compensation Expense. The increase in compensation expense during the period from July 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023 compared to the period July 1, 2022 to September 30, 2022 of $26.5 million was primarily driven by increased compensation and benefits costs as a result of higher headcount following the Business Combination.
Non-compensation Expense. The increase in non-compensation expenses during the period from July 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023 compared to the period from July 1, 2022 to September 30, 2022 of $176.4 million was primarily driven by a $153.6 million impairment loss on goodwill, an increase in professional fees of $14.4 million, which included $7.6 million of one-time fees related to the Business Combination, interest expense of $3.7 million related to the Term Loans and Revolving Credit Facility, partially offset by a $9.3 million gain related to the change in fair value of earn-out liabilities as a result of share price appreciation
Taxes
Our effective tax rate was 1.0% for the period from July 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023, compared to 13.3% for the period from July 1, 2022 to September 30, 2022. 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.

The increase in compensation expense during the period from January 3, 2023 to September 30, 2023 compared to the period from January 1, 2022 to September 30, 2022 of $96.9 million was primarily driven by increased compensation and benefits costs as a result of higher headcount following the Business Combination.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Management assesses liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund operating, investing, and financing activities. Management takes 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 September 30, 2023, the Company had $96.3 million outstanding on the Term Loan facility and $78.3 million outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility. See Note 14 (Debt, net of unamortized deferred financing costs).
As a result of the Business Combination, the previous year figures are not comparable to current year amounts as prior year figures only include the results of operations of Tiedemann Wealth Management Holdings, LLC.
Cash Flows
For the Period from January 3, 2023 to September 30, 2023 Compared to the Period from January 1, 2022 to September 30, 2022
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 period from January 3, 2023 to September 30, 2023, cash and cash equivalents at the beginning of the period of $194.1 million included the proceeds from the PIPE Investors related to the issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock concurrently with the closing of the Business Combination, remaining cash held in the trust account, and the beginning balance sheet cash from each of Alvarium, TIG, and TWMH.
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 and professional fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as well as interest on our debt obligations. Our net cash outflow of $81.0 million for the period from January 3, 2023 to September 30, 2023 was driven by the payment of one-time fees related to the transaction and accrued incentive compensation related to the 2022 fiscal year performance across each of the three legacy business units and operating losses incurred.
83
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities primarily related to the acquisition of TWMH and TIG historical equity during the period from January 3, 2023 to September 30, 2023. Additionally, the Company made incremental investments of $12.0 million and $3.4 million into Zebedee and Arkkan, respectively, an acquisition of AL Wealth Partners for $14.4 million and the remaining 70% acquisition of AIMS for $3.8 million.
Financing Activities
Cash flows from financing activities during the period from January 3, 2023 to September 30, 2023 were primarily driven by issuance of the Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility totaling $188.7 million, which were used to pay down existing debt of $141.9 million. Additionally, we used approximately $4.2 million to purchase shares issued as compensation and received $5.8 million from the exercise of warrants.
Future Sources and Uses of Liquidity
In the normal course of business, we may engage in off-financial position 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 interim condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report, we may in the future be required to make payments under the TRA. As of September 30, 2023, 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 AlTi’s assets, we expect to pay approximately $15.1 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 amounts related to the Business Combination.
Payments under the TRA are anticipated to increase the tax basis adjustment and, consequently, result in increasing annual amortization deductions in the taxable years of and after such increases to the original basis adjustments, and potentially will give rise to increasing tax savings with respect to such years and correspondingly increasing payments under the TRA.
The actual increase in tax basis of the AlTi’s assets resulting from an exchange or from payments under the TRA, as well as the amortization thereof and the timing and amount of payments under the TRA, will vary based upon a number of factors, including the following:
•The amount and timing of our taxable income will impact the payments to be made under the TRA. To the extent that we do not have sufficient taxable income to utilize the amortization deductions available as a result of the increased tax basis in the Alvarium Tiedemann’s assets, payments required under the TRA would be reduced.
•The price of our Class A Common Stock at the time of any exchange will determine the actual increase in tax basis of the Alvarium assets resulting from such exchange; payments under the TRA resulting from future exchanges, if any, will be dependent in part upon such actual increase in tax basis.
•The composition of the AlTi’s assets at the time of any exchange will determine the extent to which we may benefit from amortizing the increased tax basis in such assets and thus will impact the amount of future payments under the TRA resulting from any future exchanges.
84
•The extent to which future exchanges are taxable will impact the extent to which we will receive an increase in tax basis of the AlTi’s assets as a result of such exchanges, and thus will impact the benefit derived by us and the resulting payments, if any, to be made under the TRA.
•The tax rates in effect at the time any potential tax savings are realized, which would affect the amount of any future payments under the TRA.
Depending upon the outcome of these and other factors, payments that we may be obligated to make under the TRA in respect of exchanges could be substantial.
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 September 30, 2023, the Company has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of material loss to be remote.
Litigation
From time to time, we may be named as a defendant in legal actions. Although there can be no assurance of the outcome of such legal actions, in the opinion of management, we do not have any potential liability related to any current legal proceeding or claim that would individually or in the aggregate materially affect our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.
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. On October 6, 2023, AFM UK and ARE received a pre-action letter of claim from a law firm acting for a group of current and former shareholders in Home REIT asserting potential claims they may bring against those two entities, amongst others. See Note 19 (Commitments and Contingencies) for more information.
We will continue to assess any potential litigation or regulatory risk associated with such matters.
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
85
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 recent acquisition. 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 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 AIMS Earn-out Liability: The fair values of our Business Combination Earn-out Securities liability and our AIMS 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 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.
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 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
86
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
We believe that none of the changes to GAAP that went into effect during the period from January 3, 2023 to September 30, 2023, 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
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information under this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired objectives.
Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act as of September 30, 2023. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2023.
As previously disclosed in Part I, Item 4 of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, management identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting relating to an insufficient complement of resources to complete risk assessment which resulted in a lack of implementation and ineffectiveness of both process level controls in substantially all processes and the general information technology controls that support our financial statements and reporting.
Management is in the process of implementing a remediation plan for these material weaknesses, including, among other things, hiring additional accounting personnel and implementing process level and management review controls and documentation 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 its 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.
87
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.
We hired additional accounting staff and we will continue to evaluate our accounting and financial staffing needs in light of the material weaknesses described above. While we have made progress to enhance our internal control over financial reporting and will continue to devote effort in control remediation, additional time is required to complete implementation.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period from January 3, 2023 to September 30, 2023, covered by this Quarterly Report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
88

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Credit Agreement be amended to, among other things, temporarily adjust the financial covenants set forth therein (the Credit Agreement as so amended being referred to as the “Amended Credit Agreement”) and the Lenders are willing to amend the Credit Agreement on the terms set forth below; NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and mutual agreements herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 1. Amendments to Credit Agreement. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2, the Credit Agreement is amended as follows: (a) Section 1.1 is hereby amended by adding the following definitions in proper alphabetical order: “Amendment Period” means the period from the Second Amendment Effective Date until the Amendment Period End Date. “Amendment Period End Date” means, beginning with the March 31, 2024 financial statements, the first date the Administrative Agent receives financial statements required to be delivered pursuant to Sections 6.5(a) or (b) and a Compliance Certificate demonstrating compliance by Ultimate Parent with Section 7.13. “Commitment Block” means (a) during the Amendment Period, an amount equal to $40,000,000 and (b) at all times thereafter, an amount equal to $0. “Second Amendment Effective Date” means November 10, 2023. (b) Section 1.1 is hereby amended by amending and restating the definition of “Applicable Margin” in its entirety to read as follows: “Applicable Margin” means, with respect to Loans, Reimbursement Obligations, the Commitment Fee and the L/C Fee, the rates per annum determined in accordance with Schedule 1C. (c) Section 2.2 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
2 Section 2.2 Revolving Credit Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender, by its acceptance hereof, severally agrees to make a loan or loans (individually a “Revolving Loan” and collectively for all the Lenders the “Revolving Loans”) in U.S. Dollars to Borrower from time to time on a revolving basis up to the amount of (x) such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment minus (y) an amount equal to the Commitment Block multiplied by such Lender’s Revolver Percentage, subject to any reductions thereof pursuant to the terms hereof, before the Revolving Credit Termination Date. The sum of the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations at any time outstanding shall not exceed an amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitments minus the Commitment Block, in each case, as in effect at such time. Each Borrowing of Revolving Loans shall be made ratably by the Lenders in proportion to their respective Revolver Percentages. As provided in Section 2.6(a), Borrower may elect that each Borrowing of Revolving Loans be either Base Rate Loans or SOFR Loans. Revolving Loans may be repaid and the principal amount thereof reborrowed before the Revolving Credit Termination Date, subject to the terms and conditions hereof. (d) Section 2.8(b)(ii) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: (ii) If after the Closing Date Ultimate Parent or any Subsidiary shall (A) issue any Indebtedness, other than Indebtedness permitted by Section 7.1(a) through (p) and (r) through (u), or (B) issue any equity securities, Borrower shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of the estimated Net Cash Proceeds of such issuance to be received by or for the account of Ultimate Parent or such Subsidiary in respect thereof. Promptly upon receipt by Ultimate Parent or such Subsidiary of Net Cash Proceeds of such issuance, Borrower shall prepay the Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds. The amount of each such prepayment shall be applied first to the outstanding Term Loans (to be applied to the remaining amortization payments on the Term Loans in the inverse order of maturity) until paid in full and then to the Revolving Credit with a corresponding reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments until the Revolving Credit Commitment of the Lenders is reduced to $50,000,000 in the aggregate. Borrower acknowledges that its performance hereunder shall not limit the rights and remedies of the Lenders for any breach of Section 7.1 or Section 8.1(i) or any other terms of the Loan Documents. (e) Clause (iv) of Section 7.6 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: (iv) beginning after the Amendment Period End Date, the making of Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount not to exceed in any fiscal year the greater of (x) $12,000,000 and (y) 17.5% of Consolidated EBITDA for the most recently ended Test Period, provided that (A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom and (B) Ultimate Parent shall be in compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 7.13 on a pro forma basis (as of the fiscal quarter then last ended for which financial statements have been delivered to Administrative Agent) after giving effect to such Restricted Payment (f) Section 7.13 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
3 Section 7.13 Financial Covenants (a) Total Leverage Ratio. As of the last day of each Computation Period, Ultimate Parent shall not permit the Total Leverage Ratio to be greater than, for the Computation Period(s) ending (i) September 30, 2023, 5.75 to 1.00, (ii) December 31, 2023, 6.50 to 1.00 and (iii) March 31, 2024 and thereafter, 3.50 to 1.00. (b) Interest Coverage Ratio. As of the last day of each Computation Period, Ultimate Parent shall not permit the Interest Coverage Ratio to be less than, for the Computation Period(s) ending (i) September 30, 2023, 2.00 to 1.00, (ii) December 31, 2023, 1.75 to 1.00 and (iii) March 31, 2024 and thereafter, 4.00 to 1.00. (c) Modified Leverage Ratio. As of the last day of each Computation Period, Ultimate Parent shall not permit the Total Modified Leverage Ratio to be greater than, for the Computation Period(s) ending (i) September 30, 2023, 5.75 to 1.00, (ii) December 31, 2023, 6.25 to 1.00 and (iii) March 31, 2024 and thereafter, 4.25 to 1.00. (g) Schedule 1C attached hereto is hereby added as Schedule 1C to the Credit Agreement. 2. Conditions Precedent to Amendment. So long as no Default or Event of Default exists, this Amendment shall become effective upon (i) receipt by the Administrative Agent of counterparts hereof signed by the Borrower and the Required Lenders and (ii) the Administrative Agent having received payment in full of all fees and expenses (including reasonable and documented accrued fees and expenses of counsel to the Administrative Agent), which are due and payable under the Loan Documents on or before the date hereof. 3. Representations. The Borrower hereby represents and warrants on behalf of itself and each other Loan Party that: (a) each representation and warranty set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, is and will be true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof; provided that any such representation or warranty which expressly relates to a given date or period shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the respective date or for the respective period, as the case may be, and any representation and warranty that is qualified as to “materiality”, “material adverse effect” or similar language shall be true and correct (after giving effect to such qualification therein) in all respects and (b) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 4. Ratification. As herein amended, the Amended Credit Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects. After the effectiveness of this Amendment, all references in the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to “Credit Agreement” or similar terms shall refer to the Amended Credit Agreement. The Borrower (for itself and each of the other Loan Parties), the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree that each of the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue to be legal, valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with its terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, for all matters arising prior to the effective date of this Amendment, the Credit Agreement (as unmodified by this Amendment) shall control.
4 5. Governing Law. This Amendment and any claim, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Amendment, and the rights and duties of the parties hereto, shall be governed by and construed and determined in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York. 6. Miscellaneous. (a) Counterparts.

Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Amendment by telecopy, emailed .pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of the actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment and such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original hereof. (b) Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Amendment which is unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Amendment may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable mandatory provisions of law, and all the provisions of this Amendment are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law which may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Amendment invalid or unenforceable.

Level Total Leverage Ratio for Such Pricing Date Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans and Reimbursement Obligations shall be: Applicable Margin for SOFR Loans and L/C Fee shall be: Applicable Margin for Commitment Fee shall be: III Less than or equal to 2.0 to 1.0, but greater than 1.5 to 1.0 1.50% 2.50% 0.40% II Less than or equal to 1.5 to 1.0, but greater than 1.0 to 1.0 1.25% 2.25% 0.35% I Less than or equal to 1.0 to 1.0 1.00% 2.00% 0.30% For purposes hereof, the term “Pricing Date” means, for any fiscal quarter of Ultimate Parent, the date on which Administrative Agent is in receipt of Ultimate Parent’s most recent financial statements (and, in the case of the year-end financial statements, audit report) required to be delivered pursuant to Sections 6.5(a) and (b). The Applicable Margin shall be established based on the Total Leverage Ratio for the most recently completed fiscal quarter and the Applicable Margin established on a Pricing Date shall remain in effect until the next Pricing Date. If the Loan Parties have not delivered the Ultimate Parent financial statements by the date such financial statements (and, in the case of the year-end financial statements, audit report) are required to be delivered under Section 6.5, until such financial statements and audit report are delivered, the Applicable Margin shall be the highest Applicable Margin (i.e., Level VII shall apply (or after the Amendment Period End Date, Level V).

If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of Ultimate Parent, Borrower or Administrative Agent determines that (i) the Total Leverage Ratio as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, promptly on demand by Administrative Agent (or, if any Event of Default described in Section 8.1(j) or (k) with respect to Borrower has occurred and is continuing, automatically and without further action by Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under any other provision of the Loan Documents. Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.
