SEI Reports Fourth-Quarter 2025 Financial Results
MWN-AI** Summary
SEI Investments Company (NASDAQ: SEIC) disclosed strong financial performance for the fourth quarter of 2025, showcasing significant growth across key metrics. Compared to Q4 2024, the company reported a 16% increase in diluted earnings per share (EPS), reaching $1.38. Total revenues climbed 9% to $607.9 million, while operating income rose by 11% to $161.6 million, resulting in an operating margin of 27%.
CEO Ryan Hicke emphasized the company's robust results, attributing them to disciplined execution of strategic initiatives rather than reliance on any specific business segment. The company benefitted from favorable industry trends, including increasing demand for outsourcing and a convergence between public and private markets.
Breaking down performance by segment, Investment Managers led with a remarkable 15% revenue increase to $220.8 million and a 25% rise in operating profit. Private Banks experienced a 7% revenue growth, while Investment Advisors saw a 12% increase. In contrast, Institutional Investors reported smaller growth, with a 3% increase in revenue.
SEI noted that the fourth quarter net sales events totaled $43.6 million, contributing to a record $149.9 million in net sales for the entire year. Although there were challenges, including notable comparability issues affecting EPS by approximately $0.08 due to severance costs and expenses related to the Stratos acquisition, the company demonstrated resilience and profitability.
Additionally, SEI successfully completed the substantial acquisition of Stratos Wealth Holdings for $440.8 million, which is expected to broaden its advisory capabilities and distribution channels. As of December 31, 2025, the company managed approximately $1.9 trillion in assets, positioning itself favorably entering 2026.
MWN-AI** Analysis
SEI Investments Company (NASDAQ: SEIC) demonstrated impressive financial results in the fourth quarter of 2025, reflecting a robust operation that merits attention from investors. Earnings per share (EPS) increased by 16%, bolstered by a 9% rise in revenue and an 11% growth in operating income compared to the same quarter last year. With an operating margin of 27%, SEI showcases effective cost management alongside its growth trajectory.
The diversified business model has led to solid revenue contributions across all segments, with Investment Managers reporting a notable 15% revenue increase. This segment's robust performance is underscored by a significant rise in operating profit, suggesting that SEI continues to capitalize on market trends favoring asset management.
Investors should take particular note of the successful integration of the Stratos acquisition, which enhances SEI’s capabilities in the wealth management sector and positions the firm to better serve its clients. This strategic move expands their client base and distribution channels, thereby potentially increasing future revenue streams.
Despite challenges in traditional mutual fund products, SEI's ongoing investments in ETFs and professionals’ service offerings demonstrate responsiveness to market demands. Specifically, the net sales events exceeded expectations at $43.6 million in Q4, indicating strong client engagement.
For prospective investors, SEI’s solid fundamentals, marked by elevated operational margins, strategic acquisitions, and diversified revenue streams, position the stock favorably for growth. With a price-to-earnings ratio reflecting robust earnings growth potential in the coming years, SEI presents an attractive option. However, investors should consider market volatility and potential shifts in client preferences as cautionary factors. As of now, SEI appears well-equipped to leverage industry trends, making it a stock to watch in 2026.

Fourth-Quarter Business Highlights:
- SEI ended the year with strong quarterly performance, achieving diluted EPS of $1.38, up 16% from the prior year. Results were broad based, driven by revenue growth and margin expansion across each of SEI's business segments. Several items affected comparability and collectively reduced diluted EPS by approximately $0.08, including:
- $20.1 million of elevated Corporate Overhead attributable to severance expense and third party M&A fees related to Stratos.
- A $3.0 million tax benefit from purchased energy credits.
- A $3.3 million revenue accrual true-up benefit in our Investment Managers segment.
- Fourth quarter net sales events totaled $43.6 million, bringing full-year net sales events to a record $149.9 million.
- Private Banks led the quarter with $27.5 million of net sales events reflecting demand across SEI's full suite of capabilities, including SWP software-as-a-service, implementation services, and ongoing enterprise-wide professional services.
- Investment Managers generated $20.5 million of net sales events, with more than two-thirds coming from U.S.-based alternative asset managers.
- Advisors net sales events were nearly flat for the quarter, as strong inflows into SEI-managed ETFs offset continued outflows in traditional mutual fund products.
- Institutional Investors recorded negative $5.0 million of net sales events, driven by client losses in the United Kingdom.
- Consolidated revenues and operating income increased by 9% and 11%, respectively, from Q4 2024. SEI's consolidated operating margin of 26.6% improved over the prior year despite severance and M&A expenses. Across all business segments, both revenue and operating profit increased vs. Q4 2024 and Q3 2025.
- Private Banking revenue increased 4% vs. Q3 2025 reflecting recent professional services wins. Operating margins expanded to 19%, up from 16% in Q3, driven by cost leverage and higher-margin professional services wins.
- Investment Managers delivered strong revenue and operating profit growth, even excluding the $3.3 million revenue accrual true-up, supported by recent clients wins, modest market appreciation for traditional asset managers, and the timing of certain planned investments shifting into 2026.
- Investment Advisors posted 5% operating profit growth vs. Q3 2025, with market appreciation offsetting continued mutual fund outflows. SEI's integrated cash program contributed $20.7 million, consistent with Q3 2025 and Q4 2024.
- Institutional Investors generated modest revenue and operating profit growth as market appreciation largely offset client losses.
- Ending assets under administration increased by 3%, and ending assets under management increased by 2% from Q3 to Q4. AUA growth was driven primarily by strong client win momentum and, to a lesser extent, market appreciation. AUM growth was supported by market appreciation which offset modest outflows, primarily in Institutional.
- SEI completed the first and largest close of the Stratos acquisition for $440.8 million during the quarter, funded entirely with balance sheet cash. Acquiring Stratos advances SEI's expansion into Advice, deepens insight into end-client and advisor needs, broadens distribution across RIA and broker-dealer channels, and creates new opportunities to integrate SEI's technology and investment capabilities into a rapidly growing advisory platform.
- SEI repurchased 1.2 million shares of common stock for $101.0 million during the fourth quarter 2025 at an average price of $82.61 per share, bringing total shares repurchased to 7.5 million for the year.
