Previous wording

AB Holding's net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 increased $53.0 million and $62.8 million, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2023 primarily due to higher net income attributable to AB Unitholders.

Current wording

Previous wording

AB Holding’s partnership gross income is derived from its interest in AB.

Certain AB qualifying revenues are primarily U.S. investment advisory fees, research payments and brokerage commissions. AB Holding's effective tax rate was 7.5% during the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 12.4% during the three months ended June 30, 2023. AB Holding's effective tax rate was 8.7% during the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 12.0% during the six months ended June 30, 2023. See Note 7 to the condensed financial statements in Item 1 for the calculation of income tax expense.
