NEW YORK, Oct. 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Cohen & Steers, Inc. (NYSE: CNS) reported income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders of $7.5 million, or $0.18 per share (diluted and basic), for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, compared with a loss from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders of $754,000, or $0.02 per share (diluted and basic), for the quarter ended September 30, 2008. Total revenue for the third quarter of 2009 was $33.8 million, a decrease of 30.9% from $48.9 million for the third quarter of 2008. The third quarter 2008 results from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders included the previously disclosed after-tax expense of $0.20 per share associated with losses recorded on available-for-sale securities and a $0.04 per share increase to tax expense associated primarily with available-for-sale securities. After adjusting for these items, earnings per share from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders would have been $0.22 for the quarter ended September 30, 2008. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the company recorded a loss from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders of $13.3 million, or $0.32 per share (diluted and basic), compared with income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders of $27.1 million, or $0.64 per diluted share and $0.65 per basic share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The 2009 results include the previously disclosed after-tax expenses of $0.69 per share due to other-than-temporary impairment charges recorded during the period. After adjusting for these items, earnings per share would have been $0.38 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The 2008 results included the loss on available-for-sale securities and the increase to tax expense mentioned above. After adjusting for these items, earnings per share would have been $0.88 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. Total revenue was $83.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, a decrease of 46.7% from $156.9 million for the 2008 period. The decline in revenue was primarily attributable to lower average assets under management. Assets Under Management Assets under management were $22.5 billion as of September 30, 2009, an increase of 37.8% from $16.3 billion at June 30, 2009 and a decrease of 8.7% from $24.6 billion at September 30, 2008. The increase from June 30, 2009 was due to market appreciation of $4.4 billion and net inflows of $1.8 billion. The decrease from September 30, 2008 was due to market depreciation of $2.8 billion, partially offset by net inflows of $705 million. Average assets under management were $19.5 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, an increase of 33.1% from $14.6 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and a decrease of 25.7% from $26.2 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2008. Open-end mutual funds had net inflows of $386 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2009, compared with net inflows of $161 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and net outflows of $321 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2008. Average assets under management for open-end mutual funds were $5.1 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, an increase of 34.7% from $3.8 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and a decrease of 29.7% from $7.3 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2008. Closed-end mutual funds had inflows of $180 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2009 through an increase in the use of the funds' credit facility. Average assets under management for closed-end mutual funds were $4.8 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, an increase of 23.5% from $3.9 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and a decrease of 48.2% from $9.2 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2008. Institutional separate accounts had net inflows of $1.2 billion during the quarter ended September 30, 2009, compared with net inflows of $782 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and net outflows of $144 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2008. Average assets under management for institutional separate accounts were $9.6 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, an increase of 37.5% from $7.0 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and a decrease of 1.3% from $9.7 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.
