Generally, mutual fund proxy activity has been subject to a greater level of volatility than the other components of event-driven activity. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, mutual fund proxy revenues were 186% higher compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. During fiscal year 2025, mutual fund proxy revenues were 75% higher than the prior fiscal year. Although it is difficult to forecast the levels of event-driven activity, we expect that the portion of revenues derived from mutual fund proxy activity may continue to experience volatility in the future.

Previous wording

The inherent variability of transaction volumes and activity levels can result in some variability of amounts reported as actual achieved Closed sales. Larger Closed sales can take up to 12 to 24 months or longer to convert to revenues, particularly for the services provided by our Global Technology and Operations segment. For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, we reported Closed sales net of a 5.0% allowance adjustment. Consequently, our reported Closed sales amounts will not be adjusted for actual revenues achieved because these adjustments are estimated in the period the sale is reported. We assess this allowance amount at the end of each fiscal year to establish the appropriate allowance for the subsequent year using the trailing five years actual data as the starting point, normalized for outlying factors, if any, to enhance the accuracy of the allowance.
