(UNAUDITED)
1. Organization and Description of Business
Cohen & Steers, Inc. (CNS) was organized as a Delaware corporation on March 17, 2004. CNS is the holding company for its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including Cohen & Steers Capital Management, Inc. (CSCM), Cohen & Steers Securities, LLC (CSS), Cohen & Steers UK Limited (CSUK), Cohen & Steers Ireland Limited (CSIL), Cohen & Steers Asia Limited (CSAL) and Cohen & Steers Japan Limited (CSJL) (collectively, the Company).
The Company is a global investment manager specializing in real assets and alternative income, including real estate, preferred securities, infrastructure, resource equities, commodities, as well as multi-strategy solutions. Founded in 1986, the Company is headquartered in New York City, with offices in London, Dublin, Hong Kong and Tokyo.
2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The condensed consolidated financial statements set forth herein include the accounts of CNS and its direct and indirect subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim results have been made. The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes should be read together with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Consolidation of investment vehicles—The Company's financial interests in investment vehicles, including the management fees that are received, are evaluated at inception and thereafter, if there is a reconsideration event, in order to determine whether to apply the Variable Interest Entity (VIE) model or the Voting Interest Entity (VOE) model.
A VIE is an entity in which either the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its own activities without additional financial support or the group of holders of the equity investment at risk lack certain characteristics of a controlling financial interest. The primary beneficiary is the entity that has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect its performance, and the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Subscriptions and redemptions or amendments to the governing documents of the respective entities could affect an entity's status as a VIE or the determination of the primary beneficiary. Limited partnerships and similar entities are determined to be a VIE when the Company is the general partner and the limited partners do not hold substantive kick-out or participation rights. The Company assesses whether it is the primary beneficiary of any VIEs identified by evaluating its economic interests in the entity held either directly by the Company and its affiliates or indirectly through employees. VIEs for which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary are consolidated.
Investments that are determined to be VOEs are consolidated when the Company’s ownership interest is greater than 50% of the outstanding voting interests of the vehicle.

Investments—Management of the Company determines the appropriate classification of its investments at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such determination no less than on a quarterly basis. The Company's investments are categorized as follows:
•Equity investments at fair value are comprised of corporate investments and investments held within the consolidated investment vehicles, which generally represent common stocks, limited partnership interests, master limited partnership interests, preferred securities and other seed investments.
•Trading investments are comprised of corporate investments and investments held within the consolidated investment vehicles, which generally represent U.S. Treasury securities and corporate debt securities.
•Equity method investments, which generally represent seed investments in investment vehicles for which the Company is able to exercise significant influence but not control over the investment. When using the equity method, the Company recognizes its respective share of net income or loss for the period which is recorded in gain (loss) from investments—net in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Realized and unrealized gains and losses on equity investments at fair value, trading investments and equity method investments are recorded in gain (loss) from investments—net in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations.
From time to time, the Company, including the consolidated investment vehicles, may enter into derivative contracts, including options, futures and swaps contracts, to gain exposure to the underlying commodities markets or to economically hedge market risk of the underlying portfolios. Gains and losses on derivative contracts are recorded in gain (loss) from investments—net in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair values of these instruments are recorded in other assets or other liabilities and accrued expenses on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of financial condition.
Additionally, from time to time, the Company, including the consolidated investment vehicles, may enter into forward foreign exchange contracts to economically hedge currency exposure. These instruments are measured at fair value based on the prevailing forward exchange rate with gains and losses recorded in foreign currency gain (loss)—net in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair values of these contracts are recorded in other assets or other liabilities and accrued expenses on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of financial condition.
Leases—The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company has operating leases for corporate offices and certain information technology equipment which are included in operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets and operating lease liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of financial condition.
ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent obligations to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the net present value of lease payments over the life of the lease. The majority of the Company’s lease agreements do not provide an implicit rate. As a result, the Company used its estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available as of lease commencement dates in determining the present value of lease payments. The operating lease ROU assets reflect any upfront lease payments made as well as lease incentives received. The lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease and these are factored into the determination of the ROU asset and lease liability at lease inception when and if it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for fixed lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Company has certain lease agreements with non-lease components such as maintenance and executory costs, which are accounted for separately and not included in ROU assets.

Investment Advisory and Administration Fees—The Company earns revenue by providing asset management services to institutional accounts, open-end and closed-end funds as well as model-based portfolios. Investment advisory fees are earned pursuant to the terms of investment management agreements and are generally based on a contractual fee rate applied to the average assets under management. The Company also earns administration fees from certain open-end and closed-end funds pursuant to the terms of underlying administration contracts. Administration fees are based on the average daily assets under management of such funds. Investment advisory and administration fee revenue is recognized when earned and is recorded net of any fund reimbursements. The investment advisory and administration contracts each include a single performance obligation as the services provided are not separately identifiable and are accounted for as a series satisfied over time using a time-based method (days elapsed). Additionally, investment advisory and administration fees represent variable consideration, as fees are based on average assets under management which fluctuate daily.
In certain instances, the Company may earn performance fees when specified performance hurdles are met during the performance period. Performance fees are forms of variable consideration and are not recognized until it becomes probable that there will not be a significant reversal of the cumulative revenue recognized.
Distribution and Service Fee Revenue—Distribution and service fee revenue is based on the average daily net assets of certain share classes of open-end funds distributed by CSS. Distribution and service fee revenue is earned daily and is recorded gross of any third-party distribution and service fee expense for applicable share classes.
Distribution fee agreements include a single performance obligation that is satisfied at a point in time when an investor purchases shares in an open-end fund. For all periods presented, a portion of the distribution fee revenue recognized in the period may relate to performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in prior periods. Service fee agreements include a single performance obligation as the services provided are not separately identifiable and are accounted for as a series satisfied over time using a time-based method (days elapsed). Additionally, distribution and service fees represent variable consideration, as fees are based on average assets under management which fluctuate daily.
Distribution and Service Fee Expense—Distribution and service fee expense includes distribution fees, shareholder servicing fees and intermediary assistance payments.
Distribution fees represent payments made to qualified intermediaries for assistance in connection with the distribution of certain open-end funds' shares and for other expenses such as advertising, printing and distribution of prospectuses to investors. Such amounts may also be used to pay financial intermediaries for services as specified in the terms of written agreements complying with Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Distribution fees are based on average daily net assets under management of certain share classes of certain of the funds.
Shareholder servicing fees represent payments made to qualified intermediaries for shareholder account service and maintenance. These services are provided pursuant to written agreements with such qualified institutions. Shareholder servicing fees are generally based on average daily net assets under management.
Intermediary assistance payments represent payments to qualified intermediaries for activities related to distribution, shareholder servicing as well as marketing and support of certain open-end funds and are incremental to those described above. Intermediary assistance payments are generally based on average daily net assets under management.

Income Taxes—The Company records the current and deferred tax consequences of all transactions that have been recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with the provisions of the enacted tax laws. Deferred tax assets are recognized for temporary differences that will result in deductible amounts in future years at tax rates that are expected to apply in those years. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for temporary differences that will result in taxable income in future years at tax rates that are expected to apply in those years. The Company records a valuation allowance, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount that more likely than not will be realized. The effective tax rate for interim periods is based on the Company's best estimate of the effective tax rate expected to be applied
to the full fiscal year adjusted for discrete tax items during the period.
The calculation of tax liabilities involves uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations across the Company's global operations. A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position is recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, on the basis of the technical merits. The Company records potential interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in the provision for income taxes in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements—In June 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The standard clarifies that contractual sale restrictions are not considered in measuring the fair value of equity securities, which would be a change in practice for certain entities. The ASU also indicates that a contractual sale restriction is not a separate unit of account, and requires new disclosures for all entities with equity securities subject to a contractual sale restriction. This new guidance will be effective on January 1, 2024. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this new standard will have a material effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

5. Fair Value
Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820) specifies a hierarchy of valuation classifications based on whether the inputs to the valuation techniques used in each valuation classification are observable or unobservable. These classifications are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
•Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
•Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable.
•Level 3—Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
Inputs used to measure fair value might fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, in which case the Company defaults to the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the investments.
The following tables present fair value measurements:

(2) Included total return swaps - commodities held by consolidated investment vehicles.
Equity investments at fair value classified as Level 2 were comprised of common stocks for which quoted prices in active markets are not available. Fair values for the common stocks classified as Level 2 were generally based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets.
Equity investments at fair value classified as Level 3 as of June 30, 2022 were comprised of a limited partnership interest in a joint venture that holds an investment in private real estate.
Trading investments classified as Level 2 were comprised of U.S. Treasury securities and corporate debt securities. The fair value amounts were generally determined using third-party pricing services. The pricing services may utilize evaluated pricing models that vary by asset class and incorporate available trade, bid and other market information.
Investments measured at NAV were comprised of certain investments measured at fair value using NAV (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient as follows:
•Equity investments at fair value included:
◦limited partnership interests in private real estate funds; and
◦the Company's co-investment in a Cayman trust invested in global listed infrastructure securities (which is included in "Other" in the leveling table).

•Equity method investments included the Company's partnership interests in Cohen & Steers Global Realty Partners III-TE, L.P. (GRP-TE) which invests in non-registered real estate funds and Cohen & Steers Global Listed Infrastructure Fund L.P. (LPGI) which invests in global infrastructure securities. The Company's ownership interest was approximately 0.2 % and 0.01 %, respectively.
At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company did not have the ability to redeem its limited partnership interests in private real estate funds or its interest in GRP-TE. There were no contractual restrictions on the Company's ability to redeem its interest in the Cayman trust or LPGI.
Investments measured at NAV as a practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. The amounts presented in the above tables are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the amounts presented on the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition.
Swap contracts classified as Level 2 were valued based on the underlying futures contracts or equity indices.
Foreign currency exchange contracts classified as Level 2 were valued based on the prevailing forward exchange rate, which is an input that is observable in active markets.
The following table summarizes the changes in Level 3 investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Realized and unrealized gains (losses) in the above table were recorded in gain (loss) from investments—net in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Valuation Techniques
In certain instances, debt and equity securities are valued on the basis of prices from an orderly transaction between market participants provided by reputable broker-dealers or independent pricing services. In determining the value of a particular investment, independent pricing services may use information with respect to transactions in such investments, broker quotes, pricing matrices, market transactions in comparable investments and various relationships between investments. As part of its independent price verification process, the Company generally performs reviews of valuations provided by broker-dealers or independent pricing services. Investments in funds are valued at their closing price or NAV (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient.
In the absence of observable market prices, the Company values its investments using valuation methodologies applied on a consistent basis. For some investments, little market activity may exist; management's determination of fair value is then based on the best information available in the circumstances, and may incorporate management's own assumptions and involve a significant degree of judgment, taking into consideration a combination of internal and external factors. Such investments are valued no less than on a quarterly basis, taking into consideration any changes in key inputs and changes in economic and other relevant conditions, and valuation models are updated accordingly. Additionally, the Company has retained an independent valuation services firm to assist in the determination of the fair value of certain private real estate investments. The valuation process also includes a review and approval by a committee which is comprised of senior members from various departments within the Company (Valuation Committee). The Valuation Committee provides independent oversight of the valuation policies and procedures.

7. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the total weighted average shares of common stock outstanding and common stock equivalents determined using the treasury stock method. Common stock equivalents are comprised of dilutive potential shares from restricted stock unit awards and are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Executive Overview
General
We are a global investment manager specializing in real assets and alternative income, including real estate, preferred securities, infrastructure, resource equities, commodities, as well as multi-strategy solutions. Founded in 1986, we are headquartered in New York City, with offices in London, Dublin, Hong Kong and Tokyo.
Our primary investment strategies include U.S. real estate, preferred securities and low duration preferred securities, global/international real estate, global listed infrastructure, real assets multi-strategy, midstream energy and MLPs, as well as global natural resource equities. Our strategies seek to achieve a variety of investment objectives for different risk profiles and are actively managed by specialist teams of investment professionals who employ fundamental-driven research and portfolio management processes. We offer our strategies through a variety of investment vehicles, including U.S. and non-U.S. registered funds and other commingled vehicles, separate accounts and subadvised portfolios.
Our distribution network encompasses two major channels, wealth and institutional. Our wealth channel includes registered investment advisers, wirehouses, independent and regional broker dealers and bank trusts. Our institutional channel includes sovereign wealth funds, corporate plans, insurance companies and public funds, including defined benefit and defined contribution plans, as well as other financial institutions that access our investment management services directly or through consultants and other intermediaries.
Our revenue from the wealth channel is derived from investment advisory, administration, distribution and service fees from open-end and closed-end funds. Our revenue from the institutional channel is derived from fees received from our clients for managing advised and subadvised accounts. Our fees are based on contractually specified rates applied to the value of the assets we manage and, in certain cases, may include a performance-based fee. Our revenue fluctuates with changes in the total value of our assets under management, which may occur as a result of market appreciation and depreciation, contributions or withdrawals from investor accounts and distributions. This revenue is recognized over the period that the assets are managed.
The Russian invasion of Ukraine has impacted global financial markets, introducing new threats to global economic growth and adding to inflationary pressures. We have taken measures to ensure ongoing compliance with all applicable sanctions and guidance issued by authorities globally against certain regions, entities, or individuals. Our overall exposure to Russian and Ukrainian securities is limited and we do not expect a material impact to our financial results.

Investment Performance at June 30, 2022
_________________________
(1) Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Outperformance is determined by comparing the annualized investment performance of each investment strategy to the performance of specified reference benchmarks. Investment performance in excess of the performance of the benchmark is considered outperformance. The investment performance calculation of each investment strategy is based on all active accounts and investment models pursuing similar investment objectives. For accounts, actual investment performance is measured gross of fees and net of withholding taxes. For investment models, for which actual investment performance does not exist, the investment performance of a composite of accounts pursuing comparable investment objectives is used as a proxy for actual investment performance. The performance of the specified reference benchmark for each account and investment model is measured net of withholding taxes, where applicable.

Morningstar calculates its ratings based on a risk-adjusted return measure that accounts for variation in a fund's monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in each category receive five stars, the next 22.5% receive four stars, the next 35% receive three stars, the next 22.5% receive two stars and the bottom 10% receive one star. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Based on independent rating by Morningstar, Inc. of investment performance of each Cohen & Steers-sponsored open-end U.S.-registered mutual fund for all share classes for the overall period at June 30, 2022. Overall Morningstar rating is a weighted average based on the 3-year, 5-year and 10-year Morningstar rating. Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately, which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.

Changes in Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
We seek to maintain a capital structure that supports our business strategies and maintains the appropriate amount of liquidity at all times. Furthermore, we currently expect cash flows from operations to be more than adequate to fund our present and reasonably foreseeable future commitments for investing and financing activities.
Net Liquid Assets
Our current financial condition is highly liquid and is primarily comprised of cash and cash equivalents, U.S. Treasury securities, liquid seed investments and other current assets. Liquid assets are reduced by current liabilities, which are generally defined as obligations due within one year (together, net liquid assets). The Company does not currently have any outstanding debt.
The table below summarizes net liquid assets:
| (in thousands) | June 30, 2022 | December 31, 2021 | |||||||||
| Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 126,569 | $ | 184,373 | |||||||

| Current liabilities | (89,580) | (118,888) | |||||||||
| Net liquid assets | $ | 222,169 | $ | 212,697 | |||||||
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are on deposit with several highly-rated financial institutions and include short-term, highly liquid investments, which are readily convertible into cash and have original maturities of three months or less.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we paid aggregate costs of $15.2 million associated with the initial public offering of RLTY. We also funded $21.2 million of our up to $50.0 million investment commitment in the Cohen & Steers Real Estate Opportunities Fund, L.P. (REOF). Refer to Investment Commitments, Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Contingencies for further discussion.
U.S. Treasury securities
U.S. Treasury securities are directly issued by the U.S. government and were classified as trading investments.
Liquid seed investments—net
Liquid seed investments are generally traded in active markets on major exchanges and can typically be liquidated within a normal settlement cycle. Liquid seed investments include the Company's economic interest in consolidated investment vehicles and are presented net of redeemable noncontrolling interests.
Other current assets
Other current assets primarily represent investment advisory and administration fees receivable. At June 30, 2022, institutional accounts comprised 48.6% of total accounts receivable, while open-end and closed-end funds, together, comprised 49.6% of total accounts receivable. We perform a review of our receivables on an ongoing basis in order to assess collectibility and, based on our analysis at June 30, 2022, there was no allowance for uncollectible accounts required.
Current liabilities
Current liabilities included accrued compensation and benefits, distribution and service fees payable, operating lease obligations due within 12 months, certain income taxes payable, and other liabilities and accrued expenses.
Cash flows
Our cash flows generally result from the operating activities of our business, with investment advisory and administration fees being the most significant contributor.

We expect that cash flows provided by operating activities will provide sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations and continue to serve as our principal source of working capital for the foreseeable future.
Cash and cash equivalents increased by $53.3 million, excluding the effect of foreign exchange rate changes, for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Cash flows from operating activities primarily consisted of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in assets and liabilities. Net cash used in operating activities was $48.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, which included net investment purchases within certain consolidated investment vehicles. Net cash used in investing activities was $43.6 million, which included net purchases of U.S. Treasury securities held for corporate purposes and securities held directly for the purpose of establishing performance track records of $42.5 million. Net cash provided by financing activities was $39.1 million, including net contributions from redeemable noncontrolling interests of $117.8 million, partially offset by dividends paid to stockholders of $53.7 million and repurchases of common stock to satisfy employee withholding tax obligations on the vesting and delivery of restricted stock units of $25.8 million.
Cash and cash equivalents increased by $70.0 million, excluding the effect of foreign exchange rate changes, for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Investment Commitments
We have committed to invest up to $50.0 million in REOF. As of June 30, 2022, we had funded $21.2 million of this commitment. The timing for funding the remaining portion of our commitment is determined by the fund.
38
Dividends
Subject to the approval of our Board of Directors, we anticipate paying dividends. When determining whether to pay a dividend, we take into account general economic and business conditions, our strategic plans, our results of operations and financial condition, contractual, legal and regulatory restrictions on the payment of dividends, if any, by us and our subsidiaries and such other factors deemed relevant.
On August 4, 2022, we declared a quarterly dividend on our common stock in the amount of $0.55 per share. This dividend will be payable on August 25, 2022 to stockholders of record at the close of business on August 15, 2022.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Management considers the following accounting estimate critical to an informed review of our condensed consolidated financial statements as it requires management to make certain judgements about matters that may be uncertain at the time the estimate was determined.
For a discussion of our critical accounting estimates, please see Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the Form 10-K). Other than as described below, there have been no changes to the critical accounting estimates disclosed in the Form 10-K.
Valuation of Investments
There is no established market for private real estate investments, and there may not be any comparable public market valuations. As a result, the valuation of a private real estate investment may be based on imperfect information and is subject to inherent uncertainties, and the resulting values may differ from values that would have been determined had a ready market existed for such investments, from values placed on such investments by other investors and from prices at which such investments may ultimately be sold.
We have retained an independent valuation services firm to assist in the determination of the fair value of certain of our private real estate investments. Each real property investment is valued quarterly in accordance with the applicable governing documents. Limited partnerships that hold real property investments are valued using the valuation methodology we deem most appropriate and consistent with industry best practices and market conditions. We expect the primary methodology used to value real property investments will be the income approach, whereby value is derived by determining the present value of an asset’s stream of future cash flows (for example, discounted cash flow analysis). Consistent with industry practices, the income approach incorporates actual contractual lease income, professional judgments regarding comparable rental and operating expense data, the capitalization or discount rate and projections of future rent and expenses based on appropriate market evidence, and other subjective factors. Other methodologies that may also be used to value properties include, among other approaches, sales comparisons and cost approaches. We will monitor the investments for material events that we believe may be expected to have a material impact on the most recent estimated fair values of such real property investment.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
In the normal course of our business, we are exposed to risk as a result of changes in interest and currency rates,
securities markets and general economic conditions, which may have an adverse impact on the value of our assets under management and our seed investments. The majority of our revenue is derived from investment advisory and administration fees which are based on average assets under management. Accordingly, where there are changes in the value of the assets we manage as a result of market fluctuations, our revenue and the value of our seed investments may change.
Corporate Seed investments—net
Our seed investments are comprised of both liquid and illiquid holdings. Liquid seed investments are generally traded in active markets on major exchanges and can typically be liquidated within a normal settlement cycle. Illiquid seed investments are generally comprised of limited partnership interests in private real estate vehicles for which there may be contractual restrictions on redemption.
Our seed investments are subject to market risk. We mitigate this risk by entering into derivative contracts designed to hedge certain portions of our risk. The following table summarizes the effect of a ten percent increase or decrease on the carrying value of our seed investments, which are presented net of redeemable noncontrolling interests, if any, as of June 30, 2022 (in thousands):
Carrying Value | Notional Value - Hedges | Net Carrying Value | Net Carrying Value Assuming a 10% increase | Net Carrying Value Assuming a 10% decrease | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
