Invesco reports Q2 adjusted EPS 36c, consensus 39c

Reports Q2 revenue $1.52B, consensus $1.09B. The company said, “Our global scale and breadth of products were integral to sustaining long-term organic growth even during the turbulent first month of the quarter. During the quarter, we generated $16 billion in net long-term inflows, a 5% annualized growth rate, and reached a record $2 trillion in assets under management. Long-term assets under management grew 16% over last year, driving revenue growth, while expenses remained well controlled, resulting in positive operating leverage and operating margin improvement compared to the same quarter last year. Strengthening our balance sheet and returning capital to shareholders is a top priority for Invesco (IVZ). During the quarter, we continued to repurchase common shares and repurchased $1 billion of our preferred stock held by MassMutual. We are executing well against our strategic priorities, pursuing greater efficiencies and continuing to innovate across our platform while delivering profitable growth.”
