AFFILIATED MANAGERS GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.     Basis of Presentation

        The consolidated financial statements of Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (the "Company" or "AMG") have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all of the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. All dollar amounts in these notes (except information that is presented on a per share, per note or per contract basis) are stated in thousands, unless otherwise indicated. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 includes additional information about AMG, its operations and its financial position, and should be read in conjunction with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

2.     Stock Split

        In March 2004, the Company completed a three-for-two stock split. Corresponding with this split, the conversion and settlement rates of outstanding convertible securities and the number of shares of common stock subject to outstanding options were appropriately adjusted. As applicable, the information provided in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflects the stock split.

3.     Senior Debt

        The components of senior debt are as follows:

 
  December 31,
2003

  September 30,
2004

Senior bank debt   $   $ 51,000
Zero coupon senior convertible notes     123,340     123,803
Floating rate senior convertible securities     300,000     300,000
   
 
  Total   $ 423,340   $ 474,803
   
 

        The Company has a senior revolving credit facility with a syndicate of major commercial banks, which previously allowed for borrowings of up to $250,000, and which was amended in August 2004. The amended credit facility (the "Facility") extends the maturity date to August 2007 and currently provides that the Company may borrow up to $405,000 at rates of interest (based either on the Eurodollar rate or the Prime rate as in effect from time to time) that vary depending on the Company's credit ratings. Subject to the agreement of the lenders (or prospective lenders) to increase their commitments, the Company has the option to increase the Facility up to $450,000. The Facility contains financial covenants with respect to net worth, leverage and interest coverage. The Facility also contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on indebtedness, liens, cash

5


dividends and fundamental corporate changes. Any borrowings under the Facility would be collateralized by pledges of all capital stock or other equity interests owned by the Company. At September 30, 2004, the Company had no borrowings under the Facility.

        In August 2004, the Company entered into a credit facility with a major commercial bank pursuant to which it borrowed $51,000. The Company used the proceeds to refinance the purchase of certain of its outstanding senior notes due 2006, which were originally issued as a component of its 2001 mandatory convertible securities (as discussed below). The effective interest rate on the outstanding borrowing was approximately 2.19% as of September 30, 2004. The facility is collateralized by a pledge of the Company's rights as a secured party with respect to U.S. Treasury securities pledged by holders of the 2001 mandatory convertible securities to secure their obligations under those securities. The loan matures in November 2004, and the Company intends to repay the outstanding balance through a borrowing under the Facility.

        In May 2001, the Company completed a private placement of zero coupon senior convertible notes. In this private placement, the Company sold an aggregate of $251,000 principal amount at maturity of zero coupon senior convertible notes due 2021, with each note issued at 90.50% of such principal amount and accreting at a rate of 0.50% per year. Each security is convertible into 17.429 shares of the Company's common stock upon the occurrence of certain events, including the following: (i) if the closing price of a share of the Company's common stock is more than a specified price over certain periods (initially $62.36 and increasing incrementally at the end of each calendar quarter to $63.08 on April 1, 2021); (ii) if the credit rating assigned by Standard & Poor's to the securities is below BB-; or (iii) if the Company calls the securities for redemption. The holders may require the Company to repurchase the securities at their accreted value on May 7 of 2006, 2011 and 2016. If the holders exercise this option in the future, the Company may elect to repurchase the securities with cash, shares of its common stock or some combination thereof. The Company has the option to redeem the securities for cash on or after May 7, 2006 at their accreted value. In the first nine months of 2003, the Company repurchased an aggregate $116,500 principal amount at maturity of zero coupon senior convertible notes in privately negotiated transactions and realized a gain of $555, which was reported in "Investment and other income (loss)."

        In February 2003, the Company completed a private placement of $300,000 of floating rate senior convertible securities due 2033 ("convertible securities"). The convertible securities bear interest at a rate equal to 3-month LIBOR minus 0.50%, payable in cash quarterly. Each security is convertible into shares of the Company's common stock upon the occurrence of certain events, including the following: (i) if the closing price of a share of the Company's common stock exceeds $65.00 over certain periods; (ii) if the credit rating assigned by Standard & Poor's is below BB-; or (iii) if the Company calls the securities for redemption. Upon conversion, holders of the securities will receive 18.462 shares of the Company's common stock for each convertible security. In addition, if the market price of the Company's common stock exceeds $54.17 per share at the time of conversion, holders will receive additional shares of common stock based on the stock price at that time. Based on the trading price of the Company's common stock on September 30, 2004, each security would have a settlement rate of 18.462 shares. The holders of the convertible securities may require the Company to repurchase such securities on February 25 of 2008, 2013, 2018, 2023 and 2028, at their principal amount. The Company may choose to pay the purchase price for such repurchases with cash, shares of its common stock or some combination thereof. The Company may redeem the convertible securities for cash at any time on or after February 25, 2008, at their principal amount.

6


        As further described in Note 14, the Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements of a notional amount of $150,000. For the period February 2005 through February 2008, the Company will pay a weighted average fixed rate of approximately 3.28% on that amount.

4.     Mandatory Convertible Securities

        The components of the Company's mandatory convertible securities are as follows:

 
  December 31,
2003

  September 30,
2004

2001 mandatory convertible securities   $ 230,000   $ 75,750
2004 mandatory convertible securities         300,000
   
 
  Total   $ 230,000   $ 375,750
   
 

        In December 2001, the Company completed a public offering of mandatory convertible securities ("2001 PRIDES"). A sale of an over-allotment of the securities was completed in January 2002, increasing the aggregate amount outstanding to $230,000. Each unit of the 2001 PRIDES initially consisted of (i) a senior note due November 17, 2006 with a principal amount of $25 per note, on which the Company pays quarterly interest, and (ii) a forward purchase contract pursuant to which the holder has agreed to purchase shares of the Company's common stock on November 17, 2004, with the number of shares to be determined based upon the average trading price of the Company's common stock for a period preceding that date. Depending on the average trading price in that period, the settlement rate will range from 0.4461 to 0.5130 shares per $25 purchase contract. Based on the trading price of the Company's common stock on September 30, 2004, the purchase contracts would have a settlement rate of 0.4669.

        In August 2004, the Company repurchased $154,250 in aggregate principal amount of the senior notes component of the 2001 PRIDES. The Company repurchased the notes through a tender offer, a privately negotiated purchase and certain repurchases in the August 2004 remarketing of the notes. The Company reported a loss of $2,493 on the purchase of these notes, which was reported in "Investment and other income (loss)." Following these transactions, $75,750 in aggregate principal amount of the notes component of the 2001 PRIDES (with a maturity date of November 2006) remains outstanding, with an interest rate of approximately 5.41%.

        In August 2004, the Company settled $39,250 of the 2001 PRIDES forward purchase contracts and realized a gain of $3,719, which was recorded directly to equity. In November 2004, the Company will receive $190,750 in gross proceeds upon settlement of the remaining forward purchase contracts associated with the 2001 PRIDES.

        In connection with the issuance of the 2004 PRIDES (as described below), the Company repurchased an aggregate of approximately 3.5 million shares of its common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2004. The share repurchases were intended to offset the Company's obligation to issue shares of its common stock in November 2004 under the terms of the forward purchase contracts component of the 2001 PRIDES.

        In February 2004, the Company completed a private placement of $300,000 of mandatory convertible securities ("2004 PRIDES"). As described below, these securities are also structured to provide $300,000 of additional proceeds to the Company following a successful remarketing and the exercise of forward purchase contracts in February 2008.

7


        Each unit of the 2004 PRIDES initially consists of (i) a senior note due February 17, 2010 with a principal amount of $1,000 per note, on which the Company pays interest quarterly at the annual rate of 4.125%, and (ii) a forward purchase contract pursuant to which the holder has agreed to purchase shares of the Company's common stock on February 17, 2008. Holders of the purchase contracts receive a quarterly contract adjustment payment at the annual rate of 2.525% per $1,000 purchase contract. The current portion of the contract adjustment payments, approximately $7,000, is recorded in current liabilities. The number of shares to be issued on February 17, 2008 will be determined based upon the average trading price of the Company's common stock for a period preceding that date. Depending on the average trading price in that period, the settlement rate will range from 11.7851 to 18.0311 shares per $1,000 purchase contract. Based on the trading price of the Company's common stock as of September 30, 2004, the purchase contracts would have a settlement rate of 18.0311.

        Each of the senior notes is pledged to the Company to collateralize the holder's obligations under the forward purchase contracts. Beginning in August 2007, under the terms of the 2004 PRIDES, the senior notes are expected to be remarketed to new investors. A successful remarketing will generate $300,000 of gross proceeds to be used by the original holders of the 2004 PRIDES to honor their obligations on the forward purchase contracts. In exchange for the additional $300,000 in payment on the forward purchase contracts, the Company will issue shares of its common stock to the original holders of the senior notes. As referenced above, the number of shares of common stock to be issued will be determined by the market price of the Company's common stock at that time. Assuming a successful remarketing, the senior notes will remain outstanding until at least February 2010.
