Total cash and investments increased from $4.0 billion at December 31, 2023 to $4.9 billion at December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by positive investment returns on both the fixed maturities and short-term investments trading portfolio and the TS Hamilton Fund, for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company also continued to deploy more cash into the fixed maturity trading portfolio to take advantage of higher U.S. treasury interest rates. The TS Hamilton Fund represents $2.0 billion and $1.8 billion of the total cash and investments at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

TS Hamilton Fund

Although Two Sigma has broad discretion to allocate invested assets to different opportunities, the current strategy is focused on highly diversified liquid positions in global equities, futures and foreign exchange markets. Through its investments in Two Sigma Futures Portfolio, LLC ("FTV"), Two Sigma Spectrum Portfolio, LLC ("STV") and Two Sigma Equity Spectrum Portfolio, LLC ("ESTV"), we seek to achieve absolute dollar denominated returns on a substantial capital base primarily by combining multiple hedged and leveraged systematic investment strategies with proprietary risk management and execution techniques. These systematic strategies include, but are not limited to, technical and statistically-based, fundamental-based, event-based, market condition-based and spread-based strategies as well as contributor-based and/or sentiment-based strategies and blended strategies.

FTV primarily utilizes systematic strategies to gain broad macro exposure to FX, fixed income, equity and credit indices and commodities, predominantly by trading futures, spots, forwards, options, swaps, cash bonds and exchange traded products.

STV primarily utilizes systematic strategies to trade U.S.-listed equity securities and related instruments and derivatives.

ESTV primarily utilizes systematic strategies to trade non-U.S.-listed equity securities and related instruments and derivatives.

At December 31, 2024, the Company owns a 14.3%, 17.8% and 9.8% interest in each of the FTV, STV and ESTV funds, respectively.

Effective January 1, 2025, the Company amended its existing investment in Two Sigma Funds to include an allocation to the following portfolios: Two Sigma Absolute Return Portfolio, LLC ("ATV"), Two Sigma Horizon Portfolio, LLC ("HTV"), Two Sigma Navigator Portfolio, LLC ("NTV"), and Two Sigma Kuiper Portfolio, LLC ("KTV").

ATV primarily utilizes a global equity market neutral systematic strategy, predominantly trading equity securities, equity-related derivatives, and foreign exchange contracts.

KTV primarily utilizes non-systematic, discretionary strategies that combine human discretion with quantitative analysis to trade futures, futures options, foreign currency spot, forward and option contracts, exchange-traded products ("ETPs") and ETP options, debt securities, and various types of derivatives and other instruments.

HTV utilizes systematic strategies and non-systematic, discretionary strategies to trade futures, futures options, foreign currency spot, forward and option contracts, ETPs and ETP options, debt securities, and various types of derivatives and other instruments.

NTV utilizes non-systematic, discretionary macro strategies that combine human discretion with quantitative analysis for purposes of trading globally across various asset classes.

TS Hamilton Fund invests in Two Sigma Funds ("Two Sigma Funds"), which are stated at their estimated fair values, which generally represent the Company’s proportionate interest in the members’ equity of the Two Sigma Funds as reported by the respective funds based on the net asset value ("NAV") provided by the fund administrator. The Company accounts for its investment in Two Sigma Funds under the variable interest model at NAV as a practical expedient for fair value in the consolidated balance sheets.

The increase in the total fair value of the Company’s investments in Two Sigma Funds from $851.5 million at December 31, 2023 to $939.4 million at December 31, 2024 is primarily driven by investment gains and collateral management within TS Hamilton Fund.

However, as part of Two Sigma’s collateral management processes, any capital not required to be held within one of the specific trading vehicles is held in cash or short-term investments within TS Hamilton Fund as shown in the following table. The cash and short-term investment balances are not managed by the Company, nor can they be removed from TS Hamilton Fund as they support the underlying investment strategies within the three trading vehicles.
