Reports Q3 revenue… Reports Q3 revenue $471.33M, consensus $462.19M. "Our third-quarter financial results reflect strong sales activity from market adoption of our solutions. Revenue and profits were impacted by lower capital market performance, one-time costs associated with our voluntary separation program, and continued inflationary pressures on costs. All of our markets are facing a changing landscape, and while this change is challenging, we believe it reinforces growth opportunity for SEI," said CEO Ryan Hicke. "We will continue to take the important and necessary steps to invest in our talent and capabilities, while aligning our company for organic and inorganic growth. This is an exciting time for SEI, and we will capitalize on our unmatched position at the intersection of asset management and technology." | ||||

William Blair analyst… William Blair analyst Jeff Schmitt assumed coverage of SEI Investments with a Market Perform rating and no price target. The wealthtech sector companies are software and solution providers for a broad range of participants in the wealth management ecosystems, Schmitt tells investors in a research note. The analyst has a positive outlook on the wealthtech sector over the longer term. SEI's revenue growth is the weakest in the group at 7%-8% historically, while its margin expansion potential is limited, Schmitt contends. He sees potential upside of 20% over the next 12-18 months, "meaning outperformance is unlikely." | ||||
Morgan Stanley analyst… Morgan Stanley analyst Ryan Kenny lowered the firm's price target on SEI Investments to $52 from $55 and keeps an Underweight rating on the shares, noting that SEI reported net sales events of "only" $8.8M in the quarter, a "large step down" from the $16-36M range they've been delivering over the prior four quarters. Following the report, which also featured SEI's "lowest pre-tax margin in almost a decade," Kenny is lowering his 2022 and 2023 EPS estimates on lower revenues, lower LSV earnings and a higher tax rate. |
