Silvercrest Asset Management Group Inc. (“Silvercrest”), together with its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”), was formed as a Delaware corporation on July 11, 2011. Silvercrest was formed for the purpose of completing a public offering and related transactions in order to carry on the business of Silvercrest L.P. and its subsidiaries.

Silvercrest L.P., together with its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively “SLP”), provides investment management and family office services to individuals and families and their trusts, and to endowments, foundations and other institutional investors primarily located in the United States of America. The business includes the management of funds of funds, and other investment funds, collectively referred to as the “Silvercrest Funds”.

SLP was formed on December 10, 2008 and commenced operations on January 1, 2009.

On March 11, 2004, SLP acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of James C. Edwards Asset Management, Inc. (“JCE”) and subsequently changed JCE’s name to Silvercrest Financial Services, Inc. (“SFS”). On December 31, 2004, SLP acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of The LongChamp Group, Inc. (now SAM Alternative Solutions, Inc.) (“LGI”). Effective March 31, 2005, SLP entered into an Asset Contribution Agreement with and acquired all of the assets, properties, rights and certain liabilities of Heritage Financial Management, LLC (“HFM”). Effective October 3, 2008, SLP acquired 100% of the outstanding limited liability company interests of Marathon Capital Group, LLC (“MCG”) through a limited liability company interest purchase agreement dated September 22, 2008. On November 1, 2011, SLP acquired certain assets of Milbank Winthrop & Co. (“Milbank”). On April 1, 2012, SLP acquired the LLC interests of MW Commodity Advisors, LLC (“Commodity Advisors”). On March 28, 2013, SLP acquired certain assets of Ten-Sixty Asset Management, LLC (“Ten-Sixty”). See Notes 3, 7 and 8 for additional information related to goodwill and intangible assets arising from these acquisitions.

Pursuant to a reorganization agreement effective on June 26, 2013, Silvercrest became the sole general partner in Silvercrest L.P. and its only material asset is the general partner interest in Silvercrest L.P., represented by 4,790,694 Class A units or approximately 43% of the economic interests of Silvercrest L.P. Effective June 26, 2013, Silvercrest controls all of the businesses and affairs of Silvercrest L.P. and, through Silvercrest L.P. and its subsidiaries, continues to conduct the business previously conducted by these entities prior to the reorganization.

On July 2, 2013, Silvercrest completed the initial public offering of 4,790,684 of its Class A common shares at $11.00 per share (the “IPO”). Silvercrest’s stock began trading on June 27, 2013 on NASDAQ under the symbol “SAMG”. The net proceeds from the IPO were $47,878, after payment of underwriting discounts and commissions of $3,324 and offering expenses paid by Silvercrest of $1,496.

On July 12, 2013, Silvercrest sold an additional 718,603 shares of its Class A common stock, at a public offering cost of $11.00 per share, pursuant to the exercise in full of the over-allotment option that the Company granted to the underwriters in connection with its initial public offering. The exercise of the over-allotment option resulted in gross proceeds of $7,905 and net proceeds, after expenses, of $7,391, after payment of underwriting discounts of $498 and offering expenses of $16. Following consummation of this issuance of 718,603 shares of Class A Common Stock, Silvercrest had outstanding 5,509,297 shares of Class A Common Stock.

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of December 31, 2012, the portion of operating results included in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 that relates to the six months ended June 30, 2013, the portion of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 that relates to the six months ended June 30, 2013, the operating results included in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, and the activities related to the Condensed

Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 are those of SLP, the Company’s accounting predecessor. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 represent the combination of SLP’s results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and Silvercrest’s results of operation for the three months ended September 30, 2013.

In connection with the IPO and the reorganization of SLP, Silvercrest and SLP entered into a series of transactions in order to reorganize their capital structures and complete the IPO. The reorganization and IPO transactions included, among others, the following:

As part of the reorganization, the limited partner units of SLP were modified. The following modifications were made to the Class B units:

The Class B units (previously limited partnership units) of SLP, which are held by employee-partners, were modified to eliminate a cash redemption feature. Prior to the reorganization, the terms of the limited partnership units included call and put rights to redeem the units from a holder whose employment by SLP had been terminated. As a result of the redemption feature, SLP was required to account for the limited partnership units held by employee-partners as temporary equity. At the time of the reorganization and as a result of the elimination of the redemption feature, SLP reclassified the redeemable equity of its limited partners to permanent equity. Any deferred equity units that were unvested at the time of the reorganization will continue to be reflected as share-based payment awards and will be expensed as compensation over the remaining vesting period (see Note 16, “Equity-based Compensation”).

In connection with the IPO and reorganization of SLP, Silvercrest entered into a tax receivable agreement (the “TRA”) with the partners of SLP that will require it to pay them 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax that it actually realizes (or is deemed to realize in the case of an early termination payment by it, or a change in control) as a result of the increases in tax basis and certain other tax benefits related to entering into the TRA, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the TRA. This will be Silvercrest’s obligation and not the obligation of SLP. Silvercrest expects to benefit from the remaining 15% of cash savings, if any, realized.

The TRA was effective upon the consummation of the IPO and will continue until all such tax benefits have been utilized or expired, unless Silvercrest exercises its right to terminate the TRA for an amount based on an agreed upon value of the payments remaining to be made under the agreement. The TRA will automatically terminate with respect to Silvercrest’s obligations to a partner if a partner (i) is terminated for cause, (ii) breaches his or her non-solicitation covenants with Silvercrest or any of its subsidiaries or (iii) voluntarily resigns or retires and competes with Silvercrest or any of its subsidiaries in the 12-month period following resignation of employment or retirement, and no further payments will be made to such partner under the TRA.

For purposes of the TRA, cash savings in income tax will be computed by comparing Silvercrest’s actual income tax liability to the amount of such taxes that it would have been required to pay had there been no increase in its share of the tax basis of the tangible and intangible assets of SLP.

Estimating the amount of payments that Silvercrest may be required to make under the TRA is imprecise by its nature, because the actual increase in its share of the tax basis, as well as the amount and timing of any payments under the TRA, will vary depending upon a number of factors, including:

In addition, the TRA provides that, upon certain mergers, asset sales, other forms of business combinations or other changes of control, Silvercrest’s (or its successors’) obligations with respect to exchanged or acquired Class B units (whether exchanged or acquired before or after such transaction) would be based on certain assumptions, including that Silvercrest would have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize the deductions arising from the increased tax deductions and tax basis and other benefits related to entering into the TRA.

Decisions made by the continuing partners of SLP in the course of running Silvercrest’s business, such as with respect to mergers, asset sales, other forms of business combinations or other changes in control, may influence the timing and amount of payments that are received by an exchanging or selling principal under the TRA. For example, the earlier disposition of assets following an exchange or acquisition transaction will generally accelerate payments under the TRA and increase the present value of such payments, and the disposition of assets before an exchange or acquisition transaction will increase an existing owner’s tax liability without giving rise to any rights of a principal to receive payments under the TRA.

Were the Internal Revenue Service to successfully challenge the tax basis increases described above, Silvercrest would not be reimbursed for any payments previously made under the TRA. As a result, in certain circumstances, Silvercrest could make payments under the TRA in excess of its actual cash savings in income tax.

The net proceeds from the IPO were $47,882. Silvercrest used a portion of the IPO net proceeds to purchase 3,540,684 Class B units of SLP from certain of its partners for $35,365.

The net proceeds from the underwriters’ exercise in full of the over-allotment option that the Company granted to the underwriters in connection with its initial public offering were $7,391.

Silvercrest intends to use the remaining proceeds from the IPO and underwriters’ over-allotment option for general corporate purposes.

In connection with the reorganization of SLP and the IPO, SLP completed a unit distribution of 19.64 units for each unit outstanding as of the date of the consummation of the IPO.

Weighted average units outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 reflect the effect of the unit distribution as if it had occurred as of September 30, 2012.

The Company’s basic and diluted weighted shares outstanding used to determine basic and diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 were determined as follows:

Diluted weighted average units outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 includes 146,452 performance units which are conditionally issuable units that would be issuable if September 30, 2012 was the end of the contingency period.

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of such condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and related rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting and accordingly they do not include all of the information and footnotes required in the annual consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 of SLP included in Silvercrest’s prospectus dated June 26, 2013, filed with the SEC in accordance with Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on June 28, 2013, which is accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Silvercrest and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, SLP, SAMG LLC, SFS, MCG, Silvercrest Investors LLC and Silvercrest Investors II LLC as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

The Company evaluates for consolidation those entities it controls through a majority voting interest or otherwise, including those SLP funds in which the general partner or equivalent is presumed to have control over the fund. The initial step in our determination of whether a fund for which SLP is the general partner is required to be consolidated is assessing whether the fund meets the definition of a variable interest entity (VIE). None of funds for which SLP is the general partner met the definition of a VIE during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, as the total equity at risk of each fund is sufficient for the fund to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support provided by any parties, including the equity holders.

SLP then considers whether the fund is a voting interest entity (VoIE) in which the unaffiliated limited partners have substantive “kick-out” rights that provide the ability to dissolve (liquidate) the limited partnership or otherwise remove the general partner without cause. SLP considers the “kick-out” rights to be substantive if the general partner for the fund can be removed by the vote of a simple majority of the unaffiliated limited partners and there are no significant barriers to the unaffiliated limited partners’ ability to exercise these rights in that among other things (1) there are no conditions or timing limits on when the rights can be exercised, (2) there are no financial or operational barriers associated with replacing the general partner, (3) there are a number of qualified replacement investment advisors that would accept appointment at the same fee level, (4) each fund’s documents provide for the ability to call and conduct a vote, and (5) the information necessary to exercise the kick-out rights and related vote are available from the fund and its administrator.

As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, all of the funds for which SLP was the general partner have substantive “kick-out” rights and therefore neither SLP nor Silvercrest consolidated any of the Silvercrest Funds.

As of September 30, 2013, Silvercrest holds approximately 46% of the economic interests in SLP. Silvercrest is the sole general partner of SLP and, therefore, controls the management of SLP. As a result, Silvercrest consolidates the financial position and the results of operations of SLP and its subsidiaries, and records a non-controlling interest, as a separate component of stockholders’ equity on its Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition for the remaining economic interests in SLP. The non-controlling interest in the income or loss of SLP is included in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations as a reduction or addition to net income derived from SLP.

The Company views its operations as comprising one operating segment. Each of the Company’s acquired businesses have similar economic characteristics and have been fully integrated upon acquisition. Furthermore, our chief operating decision maker, which is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, monitors and reviews financial information at a consolidated level for assessing operating results and the allocation of resources.

The preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues, expenses and other income reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions made by management include the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities, equity based compensation, accounting for income taxes, the useful lives of long-lived assets and other matters that affect the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

The Company considers all highly liquid securities with original maturities of 90 days or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Certain certificates of deposit held at a major financial institution are restricted and serve as collateral for letters of credit for the Company’s lease obligations as described in Note 10.

Entities and investments over which the Company exercises significant influence over the activities of the entity but which do not meet the requirements for consolidation are accounted for using the equity method of accounting, whereby the Company records its share of the underlying income or losses of these entities. Intercompany profit arising from transactions with affiliates is eliminated to the extent of its beneficial interest. Equity in losses of equity method investments is not recognized after the carrying value of an investment, including advances and loans, has been reduced to zero, unless guarantees or other funding obligations exist.

The Company evaluates its equity method investments for impairment, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of such investments may not be recoverable. The difference between the carrying value of the equity method investment and its estimated fair value is recognized as an impairment when the loss in value is deemed other than temporary. The Company’s equity method investments approximate their fair value at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The fair value of the equity method investments is estimated based on the Company’s share of the fair value of the net assets of the equity method investee which consist of Level I and Level II securities. No impairment charges related to equity method investments were recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

Receivables consist primarily of amounts for advisory fees due from clients and management fees, and are stated as net realizable value. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful receivables based on estimates of expected losses and specific identification of uncollectible accounts. The Company charges actual losses to the allowance when incurred.

Furniture, equipment and leasehold improvements consist primarily of furniture, fixtures and equipment, computer hardware and software and leasehold improvements and are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives, which for leasehold improvements is the lesser of the lease term or the life of the asset, generally 10 years, and 3 to 7 years for other fixed assets.

The Company accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method of accounting requires that purchase price, including the fair value of contingent consideration, of the acquisition be allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed using the fair values determined by management as of the acquisition date. Contingent consideration is recorded as part of the purchase price when such contingent consideration is not based on continuing employment of the selling shareholders. Contingent consideration that is related to continuing employment is recorded as compensation expense. Payments made for contingent consideration recorded as part of an acquisition’s purchase price are reflected as financing activities in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

For acquisitions completed subsequent to January 1, 2009, the Company remeasures the fair value of contingent consideration at each reporting period using a probability-adjusted discounted cash flow method based on significant inputs not observable in the market and any change in the fair value from either the passage of time or events occurring after the acquisition date, is recorded in earnings. Contingent consideration payments that exceed the acquisition date fair value of the contingent consideration are reflected as an operating activity in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Goodwill consists of the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill is not amortized and is evaluated for impairment using a two-step process that is performed at least annually, or whenever events or circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, “Testing Goodwill for Impairment”, which provided new accounting guidance on testing goodwill for impairment. The enhanced guidance provides an entity the option to first perform a qualitative assessment of whether a reporting unit’s fair value is more likely than not less than its carrying value, including goodwill. In performing its qualitative assessment, an entity considers the extent to which adverse events or circumstances identified, such as changes in economic conditions, industry and market conditions or entity specific events, could affect the comparison of the reporting unit’s fair value with its carrying amount. If an entity concludes that the fair value of a reporting unit is more likely than not less than its carrying amount, the entity is required to perform the currently prescribed two-step goodwill impairment test to identify potential goodwill impairment and, accordingly, measure the amount, if any, of goodwill impairment loss to be recognized for that reporting unit. The guidance was effective for the Company as of January 1, 2012. The Company did not utilize this option and assessed goodwill using the two-step process when performing its annual impairment assessment in 2012.

The first step is a comparison of the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is not considered impaired and the second step is unnecessary. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, a second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the goodwill to a determination of the implied fair value of the goodwill. If the carrying amount of the goodwill is greater than the implied value, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference. The implied value of the goodwill is determined as of the test date by performing a purchase price allocation, as if the reporting unit had just been acquired, using currently estimated fair values of the individual assets and liabilities of the reporting unit, together with an estimate of the fair value of the reporting unit taken as a whole. The estimate of the fair value of the reporting unit is based upon information available regarding prices of similar groups of assets, or other valuation techniques including present value techniques based upon estimates of future cash flows.

The Company has one reporting unit at September 30, 2013 and 2012. No goodwill impairment charges were recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

Identifiable finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 20 years. The method of amortization is based on the pattern over which the economic benefits, generally expected undiscounted cash flows, of the intangible asset are consumed. Intangible assets for which no pattern can be reliably determined are amortized using the straight-line method. Intangible assets consist primarily of the contractual right to future management, advisory and performance fees from customer contracts or relationships.

Long-lived assets of the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the net carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. In connection with such review, the Company also re-evaluates the periods of depreciation and amortization for these assets. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds their fair value.

Partner incentive allocations, which are determined by the general partner, can be formula-based or discretionary. Prior to the reorganization and consummation of the IPO, incentive allocations are considered distributions of net income as stipulated by SLP’s Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement in effect prior to the reorganization and were recognized in the period in which they were paid. Subsequent to the reorganization and consummation of the IPO, partner incentive allocations are treated as compensation expense and recognized in the period in which they are earned. In the event there is insufficient distributable cash flow to make incentive distributions, the general partner in its sole and absolute discretion may determine not to make any distributions called for under the partnership agreement. The remaining net income or loss after partner incentive allocations is generally allocated to unit holders based on their pro rata ownership.

Prior to the reorganization, redeemable partnership units in SLP consisted of units issued to our founders and those purchased by certain of our employees. These capital units entitled the holder to a share of the distributions of SLP. Units were subject to certain redemption features. Upon the termination of employment of the terminated employee, as defined, SLP had a right to call the units. In addition, the terminated employee had a right to put the units to SLP upon termination or death, provided the terminated employee had complied with certain restrictions, as described in the partnership agreement. In accordance with the provisions of SLP’s Second Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, the put described above expired upon the consummation of our IPO.

As the units were redeemable at the option of the holder and were not mandatorily redeemable, the redeemable partnership units were classified outside of permanent partner’s capital as of December 31, 2012. The units were adjusted to their redemption value at December 31, 2012 with the increase or decrease in redemption value being charged to excess of liabilities, redeemable partners’ capital and partner’s capital over assets.

SLP also makes distributions to its partners of various nature including incentive payments, profit distributions and tax distributions.

The Company’s Class A stockholders are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of the Company’s stockholders. Also, Class A stockholders are entitled to receive dividends, when and if declared by the Company’s board of directors, out of funds legally available therefor, subject to any statutory or contractual restrictions on the payment of dividends and to any restrictions on the payment of dividends imposed by the terms of any outstanding preferred stock. Dividends consisting of shares of Class A common stock may be paid only as follows: (i) shares of Class A common stock may be paid only to holders of shares of Class A common stock and (ii) shares will be paid proportionately with respect to each outstanding share of the Company’s Class A common stock. Upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, or the sale of all, or substantially all, of the Company’s assets, after payment in full of all amounts required to be paid to creditors and to holders of preferred stock having a liquidation preference, if any, the Class A stockholders will be entitled to share ratably in the Company’s remaining assets available for distribution to Class A stockholders. Class B units of SLP held by principals will be exchangeable for shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, on a one-for-one basis, subject to customary adjustments for share splits, dividends and reclassifications.

Shares of the Company’s Class B common stock are issuable only in connection with the issuance of Class B units of SLP. When a vested or unvested Class B unit is issued by SLP, the Company will issue the holder one share of its Class B common stock in exchange for the payment of its par value. Each share of the Company’s Class B common stock will be redeemed for its par value and

cancelled by the Company if the holder of the corresponding Class B unit exchanges or forfeits its Class B unit pursuant to the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of SLP, the terms of the Silvercrest Asset Management Group Inc. 2012 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan, or otherwise. The Company’s Class B stockholders will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of the Company’s stockholders. The Company’s Class B stockholders will not participate in any dividends declared by the Company’s board of directors. Upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, or the sale of all, or substantially all, of its assets, Class B stockholders only will be entitled to receive the par value of the Company’s Class B common stock.

Revenue is recognized ratably over the period in which services are performed. Revenue consists primarily of investment advisory fees, family office services fees and fund management fees. Investment advisory fees are typically billed quarterly in advance at the beginning of the quarter or in arrears after the end of the quarter, based on a contractually specified percentage of the assets managed. For investment advisory fees billed in advance, the value of assets managed is determined based on the value of the customer’s account as of the last trading day of the preceding quarter. For investment advisory fees billed in arrears the value of assets managed is determined based on the value of the customer’s account on the last day of the quarter being billed. Family office services fees are typically billed quarterly in advance at the beginning of the quarter or in arrears after the end of the quarter based on a contractual percentage of the assets managed or based on a fixed fee arrangement. Management fees from proprietary and non-proprietary funds are calculated as a percentage of net asset values measured at the beginning of a month or quarter or at the end of a quarter, depending on the fund.

The Company accounts for performance based revenue in accordance with ASC 605-20-S99, “Accounting for Management Fees Based on a Formula”, by recognizing performance fees and allocations as revenue only when it is certain that the fee income is earned and payable pursuant to the relevant agreements, and no contingencies remain. Performance fee contingencies are typically resolved at the end of each annual period. In certain arrangements, the Company is only entitled to receive performance fees and allocations when the return on assets under management exceeds certain benchmark returns or other performance targets. The Company records performance fees and allocations as a component of revenue.

Equity-based compensation cost relating to the issuance of share-based awards to employees is based on the fair value of the award at the date of grant, which is expensed ratably over the requisite service period, net of estimated forfeitures. The forfeiture assumption is ultimately adjusted to the actual forfeiture rate. Therefore, changes in the forfeiture assumptions may affect the timing of the total amount of expense recognized over the vesting period. The service period is the period over which the employee performs the related services, which is normally the same as the vesting period. Equity-based awards that do not require future service are expensed immediately. Equity-based awards that have the potential to be settled in cash at the election of the employee or prior to the reorganization related to redeemable partnership units are classified as liabilities (“Liability Awards”) and are adjusted to fair value at the end of each reporting period. Distributions associated with Liability Awards not expected to vest are accounted for as compensation expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company expenses the net lease payments associated with operating leases on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term including any rent-free periods. Leasehold improvements are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the lesser of the estimated useful lives of the improvements (generally 10 years) or the remaining lease term.

Silvercrest and SFS are subject to federal and state corporate income tax, which requires an asset and liability approach to the financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. SLP is not subject to federal and state income taxes, since all income, gains and losses are passed through to its partners. SLP is, however, subject to New York City unincorporated business tax. With respect to the Company’s incorporated entities, the annual tax rate is based on the income, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities available in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations by the taxpayer and respective governmental taxing authorities. Judgment is required in determining the tax expense and in evaluating tax positions. The

tax effects of an uncertain tax position (“UTP”) taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns are recognized only if it is “more likely-than-not” to be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on its technical merits as of the reporting date. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company recognizes estimated accrued interest and penalties related to UTPs in income tax expense.

The Company recognizes the benefit of a UTP in the period when it is effectively settled. Previously recognized tax positions are derecognized in the first period in which it is no longer more likely than not that the tax position would be sustained upon examination.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”)”, which amended guidance on fair value measurements to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in GAAP and IFRS. The amended guidance specifies that the concepts of highest and best use and valuation premise in a fair value measurement are relevant only when measuring the fair value of nonfinancial assets and are not relevant when measuring the fair value of financial assets or of liabilities. The amendments include requirements specific to measuring the fair value of those instruments, such as equity interests used as consideration in a business combination. An entity should measure the fair value of its own equity instrument from the perspective of a market participant that holds the instrument as an asset. With respect to financial instruments that are managed as part of a portfolio, an exception to fair value requirements is provided. That exception permits a reporting entity to measure the fair value of such financial assets and financial liabilities at the price that would be received to sell a net asset position for a particular risk or to transfer a net liability position for a particular risk in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The amendments also clarify that premiums and discounts should only be applied if market participants would do so when pricing the asset or liability. Premiums and discounts related to the size of an entity’s holding (e.g., a blockage factor) rather than as a characteristic of the asset or liability (e.g., a control premium) is not permitted in a fair value measurement.

The guidance also requires enhanced disclosures about fair value measurements, including, among other things, (a) for fair value measurements categorized within Level III of the fair value hierarchy, (1) a quantitative disclosure of the unobservable inputs and assumptions used in the measurement, (2) the valuation process used by the reporting entity, and (3) a narrative description of the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in unobservable inputs and the interrelationships between those unobservable inputs, if any, and (b) the categorization by level of the fair value hierarchy for items that are not measured at fair value in the statement of financial position but for which the fair value is required to be disclosed (for example, a financial instrument that is measured at amortized cost in the statement of financial position but for which fair value is disclosed). The guidance also amends disclosure requirements for significant transfers between Level I and Level II and now requires disclosure of all transfers between Levels I and II in the fair value hierarchy.

The amended guidance was effective for the Company on January 1, 2012 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-08, “Financials Services-Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to the Scope, Measurement, and Disclosure Requirements.” The ASU modifies the guidance in ASC 946 for determining whether an entity is an investment company, as well as the measurement and disclosure requirements for investment companies. The ASU also clarifies the characteristics of an investment company and requires an investment company to measure noncontrolling ownership interests in other investment companies at fair value rather than using the equity method of accounting. The ASU does not change the current accounting where a noninvestment company parent retains the specialized accounting applied by an investment company subsidiary in consolidation. The ASU is effective for the fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2013. This ASU is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

On April 1, 2012, SLP acquired Commodity Advisors. Commodity Advisors is the general partner of MW Commodity Strategies, L.P. (the “MW Commodity Fund LLC”), a fund whose investment objective is to seek superior risk adjusted returns through strategic, sector-based investments with commodity and macro trading investment managers. The acquisition of Commodity Advisors adds another strategy to the Company’s investment management, wealth planning and reporting capabilities, including proprietary value equity and fixed income disciplines and alternative investment advisory services. On April 1, 2012, SLP, in exchange for the member interests of Commodity Advisors, issued units of SLP and GP LLC, at closing, with a fair value of $132. Furthermore, SLP is obligated to make quarterly contingent payments if incremental income, as defined in the purchase agreement, exceeds various thresholds. As these contingent payments are tied to the continued employment by SLP of the former member of Commodity Advisors, they will be considered compensation expense in the period in which such contingent payments are earned (See Note 10). SLP is obligated to make a future one-time earnout payment in units equal to the difference between $800 and the redemption value of the units issued at closing (as adjusted for the reorganization of SLP), if incremental revenue, as defined, reaches an amount equal to $400 prior to March 31, 2014.

The following table summarizes the final amounts allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The excess of the purchase price over the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed was allocated to goodwill and intangible assets.

On March 28, 2013, SLP executed an Asset Purchase Agreement with and closed the related transaction to acquire certain assets of Ten-Sixty. Ten-Sixty is a registered investment adviser that advises on approximately $1.9 billion of assets primarily on behalf of institutional clients. This strategic acquisition enhances the Company’s hedge fund and investment manager due diligence capabilities, risk management analysis and reporting, and enhances its institutional business. Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, SLP paid cash consideration at closing of $2,500 and issued a promissory note to Ten-Sixty in the principal amount of $1,479 subject to adjustment. The principal amount of the promissory note is payable in two initial installments of $218 each on April 30, 2013 and December 31, 2013 and then quarterly installments from June 30, 2014 through March 31, 2017 of $87 each. The principal amount outstanding under this note bears interest at the rate of five percent per annum. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, SLP incurred $51 in costs related to the acquisition of Ten-Sixty, and has included these in general, administrative and other in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

The net tangible assets acquired from the Ten-Sixty transaction were determined to have a fair value of $0.

The following table summarizes the allocation of the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed which was allocated to goodwill and intangible assets.

The Company believes the recorded goodwill is supported by the anticipated revenues and expected synergies of integrating the operations of Ten-Sixty into the Company. Furthermore, there are expected synergies with respect to compensation and benefits and general and administrative costs. All goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

The pro forma information below represents consolidated results of operations as if the acquisition of Commodity Advisors occurred on January 1, 2012 and the acquisition of Ten-Sixty occurred on January 1, 2013 and January 1, 2012. The pro forma information has been included for comparative purposes and is not indicative of results of operations of the Company had the acquisitions occurred as of January 1, 2013 and 2012, nor is it necessarily indicative of future results.

Investments include $84 and $1,968 as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, representing the Company’s equity method investments in affiliated investment funds which have been established and managed by the Company and its affiliates. The Company’s financial interest in these funds can range up to 2%. Despite the Company’s insignificant financial interest, the Company exercises significant influence over these funds as the Company typically serves as the general partner, managing member or equivalent for these funds. During 2007, the Silvercrest Funds granted rights to the unaffiliated investors in each respective fund to provide that a simple majority of the fund’s unaffiliated investors will have the right, without cause, to remove the general partner or equivalent of that fund or to accelerate the liquidation date of that fund in accordance with certain procedures. At September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company determined that none of the Silvercrest Funds were required to be consolidated. The Company’s involvement with these entities began on the dates that they were formed, which range from July 2003 to July 2008.

GAAP establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework which prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring investments at fair value. Market price observability is affected by a number of factors, including the type of investment, the characteristics specific to the investment and the state of the marketplace including the existence and transparency of transactions between market participants. Investments with readily available active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices in an orderly market generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.

At September 30, 2013, the Company did not have any financial assets or liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.

The following table summarizes the classification of the Company’s financial assets that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2012:

At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, financial instruments that are not held at fair value are categorized in the table below:

The following is a summary of receivables as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

The following is a summary of furniture, equipment and leasehold improvements, net as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

Depreciation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $100, $299, $128 and $359, respectively.

The following is a summary of the changes to the carrying amount of goodwill as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

As of September 30, 2013, amortization expense related to the intangible assets was $402 and $1,156 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, and was $362 and $1,085 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively.

As of September 30, 2013, amortization related to the Company’s finite life intangible assets is scheduled to be expensed over the next five years and thereafter as follows:

On June 24, 2013, the subsidiaries of SLP entered into a $15,000 credit facility with City National Bank. The subsidiaries of SLP are the borrowers under such facility and SLP guarantees the obligations of its subsidiaries under the credit facility. The credit facility is secured by certain assets of SLP and its subsidiaries. The credit facility consists of a $7,500 delayed draw term loan that matures on June 24, 2020 and a $7,500 revolving credit facility that matures on December 24, 2016. The loan bears interest at either (a) the higher of the prime rate plus a margin of 0.05 percentage points and 2.5% or (b) the LIBOR rate plus 3 percentage points, at the borrowers’ option. On June 28, 2013, SLP borrowed $7,000 on the revolving credit loan. As of September 30, 2013, no amount has been drawn

on the term loan credit facility and the borrowers may draw up to the full amount of the term loan through June 25, 2018. Borrowings under the term loan on or prior to June 24, 2015 will be payable in 20 equal quarterly installments. Borrowings under the term loan after June 24, 2015 will be payable in equal quarterly installments through the maturity date. The credit facility contains restrictions on, among other things, (i) incurrence of additional debt, (ii) creating liens on certain assets, (iii) making certain investments, (iv) consolidating, merging or otherwise disposing of substantially all of our assets, (v) the sale of certain assets, and (vi) entering into transactions with affiliates. In addition, the credit facility contains certain financial covenants including a test on discretionary assets under management, maximum debt to EBITDA and a fixed charge coverage ratio. The credit facility contains customary events of default, including the occurrence of a change in control which includes a person or group of persons acting together acquiring more than 30% of the total voting securities of Silvercrest.

As of September 30, 2013, $5,000 of principal remains outstanding under the revolving credit loan. Interest expense of $22 related to this borrowing is accrued as of September 30, 2013.

Interest expense, which also includes amortization of deferred financing fees, incurred on the revolving credit and term loans was $70 and $72 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively.

The carrying value of notes payable approximates fair value. The fixed rate notes, which are related to the Ten-Sixty and Milbank acquisitions, approximate fair value based on interest rates currently available to the Company for similar debt. The variable rate notes are based on a multiple of the U.S. Prime Rate.

As of September 30, 2013, future principal amounts payable under the fixed and variable rate notes are as follows:

The Company leases office space pursuant to operating leases that are subject to specific escalation clauses. Rent expense charged to operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 amounted to $893, $2,654, $962 and $2,717, respectively. The Company received sub-lease income from subtenants during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 of $180, $653, $181 and $647, respectively. Therefore, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, net rent expense amounted to $713, $2,001, $781 and $2,070, respectively, and is included in general, administrative and other expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

During 2006, the Company entered into a lease agreement for office space for its headquarters. The lease commenced on January 1, 2007 and expires September 30, 2017. The lease is subject to escalation clauses and provides for rent free periods of 6 to 9 months and a leasehold improvement allowance of $1,538 provided the Company spends at least an additional $513 on improvements. The Company spent $3,284 on leasehold improvements and received $1,499 of the allowance during 2007; the remaining $39 of the allowance was received in 2008. As security for performance under the leases, the Company is required to maintain letters of credit in favor of the landlord totaling $2,023 that were reduced to $1,013 on August 31, 2010 and can be further reduced to $506 on August 31, 2014. The letter of credit is collateralized by a certificate of deposit in an equal amount.

Future minimum lease payments and rentals under lease agreements which expire through 2017 are as follows:

In 2010, an escrow account was funded by a sub-tenant whose sub-lease with the Company commenced on January 1, 2011. Pursuant to the sub-lease, the tenant was required to deposit the first 16 months of rent into the escrow account totaling $452. The initial deposit was depleted as of April 2012, and additional deposits of $99 in June 2012 and $339 in December 2012 were made by the sub-tenant. This account has been recorded as restricted certificates of deposit and escrow on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. As of September 30, 2013, the remaining balance in the escrow account was $57.

The Company recorded a loss on this sub-lease in 2011 of $150 (on a net present value basis). The related unamortized liability that was established in January 2011 was $247 and was reduced by lease payments during 2011 of $85, during 2012 of $85 and during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 of $63, resulting in an ending balance at September 30, 2013 of $14. This liability is included in deferred rent on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

The Company has capital leases for certain office equipment. The principal balance of these leases was $19 and $33 as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

In connection with its acquisition of MCG in October 2008, SLP entered into a contingent consideration agreement whereby the former members of MCG were entitled to contingent consideration equal to 22% of adjusted annual EBITDA for each of the five years subsequent to the date of acquisition. As the acquisition was completed prior to January 1, 2009, contingent consideration is recognized when the contingency is resolved pursuant to the authoritative guidance on business combinations in effect at the date of the closing of the acquisition. The contingent consideration related to the MCG acquisition is recorded on the date when the contingency is resolved. Contingent consideration payments of $703 and $390 were made during the nine months ended

September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, related to MCG and are reflected in investing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Quarterly contingent payments related to the Commodity Advisors acquisition were accrued when the contingency was resolved. The total accrual for these payments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $20 and $139, which were recorded as compensation expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Prior to the reorganization described in Note 1, Silvercrest was a private company. SLP historically made, and will continue to make, distributions of its net income to the holders of its partnership units for income tax purposes as required under the terms of its Second Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement and also made, and will continue to make, additional distributions of net income under the terms of its Second Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement. Prior to the reorganization, distributions were treated as equity transactions and recorded in the financial statements on the payment date. Partnership distributions totaled $1,427 and $1,533 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $29,327 and $14,712 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Distributions paid or accrued prior to June 30, 2013 are included in partners’ capital and excess of liabilities, redeemable partners’ capital and partners’ capital over assets, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Distributions accrued and paid subsequent to June 30, 2013 are included in non-controlling interests in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as of September 30, 2013.

SLP distributed $10,000 to its existing partners prior to the consummation of the IPO.

Prior to the reorganization and pursuant to SLP’s Second Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, as amended and restated, partner incentive allocations were treated as distributions of net income. The remaining net income or loss after partner incentive allocations was generally allocated to the partners based on their pro rata ownership. Net income allocation is subject to the recovery of the allocated losses of prior periods. Distributions of partner incentive allocations of net income for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $0, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 amounted to $12,104 and $8,775, respectively, and are included in non-controlling interests as of September 30, 2013 and in excess of liabilities, redeemable partners’ capital and partners’ capital over assets as of December 31, 2012 in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. As part of the reorganization, partner incentive distributions for the six months ended June 30, 2013 were treated as an equity transaction and accrued and recorded in accrued compensation in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as of September 30, 2013. Subsequent to the consummation of the IPO, Silvercrest treats SLP’s partner incentive allocations as compensation expense and accrues such amounts when earned. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, SLP accrued partner incentive allocations of $3,175.

The pre-IPO partners of SLP received Silvercrest shares in connection with the reorganization and IPO, as described below.

As described in Note 1, Silvercrest’s equity structure was modified in connection with the IPO-related reorganization.

(1) Each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share. Class A common stockholders have 100% of the rights of all classes of Silvercrest’s capital stock to receive dividends.

(3) Each Class B unit of SLP held by a principal is exchangeable for one share of the Company’s Class A common stock. The principals collectively hold 6,461,764 Class B units, which represents the right to receive their proportionate share of the distributions made by SLP and 191,828 deferred equity units exercisable for Class B units of SLP, which represents the right to receive additional proportions of the distributions made by SLP. The 191,828 deferred equity units which have been issued to our principals entitle the holders thereof to participate in distributions from SLP as if the underlying Class B units are outstanding and thus are taken into account to determine the economic interest of each holder of units in SLP. However, because the Class B units underlying the deferred equity units have not been issued and are not deemed outstanding, the holders of deferred equity units have no voting rights with respect to those Class B units. Silvercrest will not issue shares of Class B common stock in respect of deferred equity units of SLP until such time that the underlying Class B units are issued.

(4) Silvercrest’s board of directors has the authority to issue preferred stock in one or more classes or series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and related restrictions, including dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any class or series, or the designation of the class or series, without the approval of its stockholders.

Silvercrest is dependent on cash generated by SLP to fund any dividends. Generally, SLP will distribute its profits to all of its partners, including Silvercrest, based on the proportionate ownership each holds in SLP. Silvercrest will fund dividends to its stockholders from its proportionate share of those distributions after provision for its taxes and other obligations.

In connection with the reorganization and IPO described in Note 1, “Reorganization and Initial Public Offering”, Silvercrest issued the following shares on the date of the reorganization:

Silvercrest issued 4,790,684 shares of Class A common stock in the IPO. Each Class B unit of SLP acquired by the Company with proceeds from the IPO immediately converted to a Class A unit. Class A units have the same rights as Class B units. During July 2013, the Company issued 718,603 shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the underwriters’ exercise in full of the over-allotment option that the Company granted to the underwriters in connection with its IPO.

Silvercrest issued 6,459,316 shares of Class B common stock to employee-principals upon the Company’s reorganization. Subsequent to the completion of the IPO, and through September 30, 2013, the Company issued 16,540 shares of Class B common stock to one of the partners of SLP and repurchased and cancelled 14,092 shares of Class B common stock of certain partners of SLP. As a result, 6,461,764 shares of Class B common stock were outstanding as of September 30, 2013. The total amount of shares of Class B common stock outstanding and held by employee-principals equals the number of Class B units those individuals hold in SLP. Shares of Silvercrest’s Class B common stock are issuable only in connection with the issuance of Class B units of SLP. When a vested or unvested Class B unit is issued by SLP, Silvercrest will issue to the holder one share of its Class B common stock in exchange for the payment of its par value, subject to the holder’s agreement to be bound by the terms of a stockholders’ agreement amongst the Class B stockholders of the Company. Each share of Silvercrest’s Class B common stock will be redeemed for its par value and cancelled by Silvercrest if the holder of the corresponding Class B unit exchanges or forfeits its Class B unit pursuant to the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of SLP, the terms of the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan of Silvercrest, or otherwise.

Partner contributions to SLP are made in cash, in the form of five or six year interest-bearing promissory notes and/or in the form of nine year interest-bearing limited recourse promissory notes. Limited recourse promissory notes were issued in January 2008, August 2009 and September 2009 with interest rates of 3.53%, 2.77% and 2.84%, respectively. The recourse limitation includes a stated percentage of the initial principal amount of the limited recourse note plus a stated percentage of the accreted principal amount as of

the date upon which all amounts due are paid in full plus all costs and expenses required to be paid by the borrower and all amounts required to be paid pursuant to a pledge agreement associated with each note issued. Certain notes receivable are payable in annual installments and are collateralized by SLP’s units that are purchased with the note. Notes receivable from partners are reflected as a reduction of non-controlling interests in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition subsequent to the reorganization and IPO.

Full recourse and limited recourse notes receivable from partners as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 are $1,661 and $1,953 and $1,379 and $1,457, respectively. There is no allowance for credit losses on notes receivable from partners as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company earned from the above activities management fee income, which is included in “Management and advisory fees” in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations, of $2,211, $6,690, $2,058 and $6,293, respectively, and performance fees and allocations of $14, $17, $34 and $50, respectively. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company was owed $1,594 and $1,622, respectively, from its various funds, which is included in the Due from Silvercrest Funds on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company earned advisory fees of $126, $331, $112 and $326, respectively, from assets managed on behalf of certain of its partners. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company is owed approximately $22 and $17, respectively, from certain of its partners, which is included in receivables, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

As of September 30, 2013, the Company had net deferred tax assets of $12,324, which is recorded as a non-current deferred tax asset of $12,538 specific to Silvercrest which consists primarily of assets related to temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of intangible assets related to its acquisition of partnership units of SLP, and a non-current deferred tax liability of $97 specific to SLP which consists primarily of liabilities related to differences between the financial statement and tax bases of intangible assets offset in part by amounts for deferred rent expense and a non-current deferred tax liability of $117 related to the corporate activity of SFS which is primarily related to temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of intangible assets. Of the total net deferred taxes at September 30, 2013, $115 of the net deferred tax liabilities relate to non-controlling interests. These amounts are included in the prepaid expenses and other assets and deferred tax and other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, respectively.

As of December 31, 2012, the Company had net deferred tax liabilities of $(131), which is recorded as a non-current deferred tax liability of $(4) (specific to SLP which consists primarily of assets for deferred rent expense and equity-based compensation offset by a liability for the excess of book over tax basis of intangible assets) and a non-current deferred tax liability of $(127) related to the corporate activity of SFS which is primarily related to temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of intangible assets. These amounts are included in the prepaid expenses and other assets and deferred tax and other liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition, respectively.

The current tax expense was $546 and $295 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Of the amount for the three months ended September 30, 2013, $277 relates to Silvercrest’s corporate tax expense, $267 relates to SLP’s UBT liability and $2 relates to SFS’s corporate tax expense. The deferred tax expense (benefit) for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, was $277 and $(5), respectively. When combined with current tax expense, the total income tax provision for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 is $823 and $290, respectively.

The current tax expense was $1,138 and $810 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The deferred tax expense (benefit) for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $351 and $(8), respectively, which when combined with current tax expense, resulted in an income tax provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 of $1,489 and $802, respectively. The current expense increased from the comparable period for 2012 mainly due to corporate taxes at Silvercrest, which did not previously exist and increased profitability during 2013. The deferred expense difference is attributable primarily to the movement in deferred tax accounts with respect to various intangible assets between 2012 and 2013.

Of the total current tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013, $145 relates to non-controlling interests. Of the deferred tax expense (benefit) for the three months ended September 30, 2013, $5 relates to non-controlling interests. When combined with current tax expense, the total income tax provision for the three months ended September 30, 2013 related to non-controlling interests is $150. With respect to the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the current tax expense related to non-controlling interests was $739, the deferred tax expense related to non-controlling interests was $78, and the total tax provision related to non-controlling interests was $817.

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by federal, state, and local tax regulators. As of September 30, 2013, the Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns for the years 2010 through 2012 are open under the normal three-year statute of limitations and therefore subject to examination.

The Company does not believe that it has any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months

Before the reorganization and consummation of our IPO, upon the termination of employment, SLP had a right to call the terminated employee’s partnership units. In addition, the terminated employee also had a right to put the partnership units back to SLP upon termination or death, provided the terminated employee had complied with certain restrictions as described in SLP’s partnership agreement. With respect to the two founders of SLP, their estate, heirs or other permitted related parties could not require SLP to redeem their units prior to April 1, 2013. In accordance with the provisions of SLP’s Second Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, the put described above expired upon the consummation of the Company’s reorganization. The redemption value per share was based on a multiple of historical EBITDA, pursuant to SLP’s partnership agreement. Once units were called or put back to SLP, the redemption resulted in the issuance of a promissory note by SLP which was typically paid in installments over four years. SLP had redeemable partners’ capital of $102,017 as of December 31, 2012, which represented the amount of partners’ capital subject to both put and call rights.

Determining the appropriate fair value model and calculating the fair value of equity compensation awards requires the input of complex and subjective assumptions, including the expected life of the equity compensation awards and the stock price volatility. In addition, determining the appropriate amount of associated periodic expense requires management to estimate the amount of employee forfeitures and the likelihood of the achievement of certain performance targets. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of equity compensation awards and the associated periodic expense represent management’s best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of judgment. As a result, if factors change and the Company deems it necessary in the future to modify the assumptions it made or to use different assumptions, or if the quantity and nature of the Company’s equity-based compensation awards changes, then the amount of expense may need to be adjusted and future equity compensation expense could be materially different from what has been recorded in the current period.

SLP has granted equity-based compensation awards to certain partners under SLP’s 2010, 2011 and 2012 Deferred Equity programs (the “Equity Programs”). The Equity Programs allow for the granting of deferred equity units based on the fair value of the Company’s units. These deferred equity units contain both service and performance requirements.

Each grant includes a deferred equity unit (“Deferred Equity Unit”) and performance unit (“Performance Unit”) subject to various terms including terms of forfeiture and acceleration of vesting. The Deferred Equity Unit represents the unsecured right to receive one unit of SLP or the equivalent cash value of up to 50% (or such other percentage as may be determined by the Company’s Executive Committee) of SLP’s units issuable upon the vesting of any such Deferred Equity Units and the remaining 50% in units upon the vesting of any such Deferred Equity Units. Such cash amount is to be calculated using the equivalent share price of the Silvercrest’s Class A Common Stock as of the applicable vesting date. The Performance Unit represents the unsecured right to receive one unit of SLP for every two units of SLP issuable upon the vesting of any such Deferred Equity Units.

Twenty-five percent of the Deferred Equity Units vest on each of the first, second, third, and fourth anniversaries of the grant date until the Deferred Equity Units are fully vested. The Performance Units are subject to forfeiture and subject to the satisfaction of a predetermined performance target at the end of the four-year vesting period. If the performance target is achieved, then the Performance Units vest at the end of the four-year vesting period. The rights of the partners with respect to the Performance Units remain subject to forfeiture at all times prior to the date on which such rights become vested and will be forfeited if the performance target is not achieved.

Distributions related to Deferred Equity Units that are paid to partners are charged to non-controlling interests after the consummation of our IPO and excess of liabilities, redeemable partners’ capital and partners’ capital over assets prior to our IPO. Distributions related to the unvested portion of Deferred Equity Units that are assumed to be forfeited are recognized as compensation expense because these distributions are not required to be returned by partners to SLP upon forfeiture.

The Company utilized both discounted cash flow and guideline company valuation methods to determine the grant date fair value of the Deferred Equity Units. The grant date fair values of Performance Units were determined by applying a performance probability factor to the Deferred Equity Unit Value. These methodologies included the use of third party data and discounts for lack of control and marketability.

Prior to our IPO, all Deferred Equity Units were considered to be liability awards and were adjusted to fair value at the end of each reporting period. After the consummation of our IPO, only the portion of Deferred Equity Units that can be settled in cash are considered to be liability awards and are adjusted to fair value at the end of each reporting period.

For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded compensation expense related to such units of $431 and $444, respectively, of which $51 and $69, respectively, relates to the Performance Units given that there is an explicit service period associated with the Deferred Equity Units, and the likelihood that the performance target will be met is considered probable. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded compensation expense related to such units of $1,468 and $1,251, respectively, of which $189 and $170, respectively, relates to the Performance Units given that there is an explicit service period associated with the Deferred Equity Units, and the likelihood that the performance target will be met is considered probable. Distributions include cash distributions paid on liability awards. Cash distributions paid on awards expected to be forfeited were $2, $7, $13 and $21 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and are part of total compensation expense for the three and nine months then ended. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, $261 and $63, respectively, of vested Deferred Equity Units were settled in cash. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there was $1,602 and $1,428, respectively, of estimated unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested awards. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested awards is expected to be recognized over a period of 1.41 and 2.16 years. The unit and per unit amounts below have been converted in connection with the reorganization of SLP, whereby, SLP completed a unit distribution of 19.64 units for each unit outstanding (excluding deferred equity units) as of the date of the consummation of the IPO.

A summary of these equity grants by the Company as of September 30, 2013 and 2012 during the periods then ended is presented below:


	Deferred Equity Units					Performance Units
	Units			Fair Value per unit		Units			Fair Value per unit

The Company estimates 10% of all awards to be forfeited and the related service period is four years.

On November 2, 2012, the Company’s board of directors adopted the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan.

A total of 1,687,500 shares were originally reserved and available for issuance under the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan. As of September 30, 2013, 1,670,960 shares are available as a result of the issuance of 16,540 shares of Class B shares of common stock by Silvercrest to one of the partners of SLP during the three months ended September 30, 2013. The equity interests may be issued in the form of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock and Class B units of SLP. (All references to units or interests of SLP refer to Class B units of SLP and accompanying shares of Class B common stock of our Company).

The purposes of the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan are to (i) align the long-term financial interests of our employees, directors, consultants and advisers with those of our stockholders; (ii) attract and retain those individuals by providing compensation opportunities that are consistent with our compensation philosophy; and (iii) provide incentives to those individuals who contribute significantly to our long-term performance and growth. To accomplish these purposes, the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan provides for the grant of units of SLP. The 2012 Equity Incentive Plan also provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, or SARs,

restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance-based stock awards and other stock-based awards (collectively, stock awards) based on our Class A common stock. Awards may be granted to employees, including officers, members, limited partners or partners who are engaged in the business of one or more of our subsidiaries, as well as non-employee directors and consultants.

It is initially anticipated that awards under the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan granted to our employees will be in the form of units of SLP that will not vest until a specified period of time has elapsed, or other vesting conditions have been satisfied as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s board of directors, and which may be forfeited if the vesting conditions are not met. During the period that any vesting restrictions apply, unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, the recipient of the award will be eligible to participate in distributions of income from SLP. In addition, before the vesting conditions have been satisfied, the transferability of such units is generally prohibited and such units will not be eligible to be exchanged for cash or shares of our Class A common stock.

SAMG LLC has a defined contribution 401(k) savings plan (the “Plan”) for all eligible employees who meet the minimum age and service requirements as defined in the Plan. The Plan is designed to be a qualified plan under sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. For employees who qualify under the terms of the Plan, on an annual basis Silvercrest matches dollar for dollar an employee’s contributions up to the first 4% of compensation. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, Silvercrest made matching contributions of $11, $44, $11 and $47, respectively, for the benefit of employees.

The Company obtains research and other services through “soft dollar” arrangements. The Company receives credits from broker-dealers whereby technology-based research, market quotation and/or market survey services are effectively paid for in whole or in part by “soft dollar” brokerage arrangements. Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, provides a “safe harbor” to an investment adviser against claims that it breached its fiduciary duty under state or federal law (including ERISA) solely because the adviser caused its clients’ accounts to pay more than the lowest available commission for executing a securities trade in return for brokerage and research services. To rely on the safe harbor offered by Section 28(e), (i) the Company must make a good-faith determination that the amount of commissions is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services being received and (ii) the brokerage and research services must provide lawful and appropriate assistance to the Company in carrying out its investment decision-making responsibilities. If the use of soft dollars is limited or prohibited in the future by regulation, the Company may have to bear the costs of such research and other services. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company utilized “soft dollar” credits of $248, $744 and $223 and $669, respectively.

We are a premier, full-service wealth management firm focused on providing financial advisory and related family office services to ultra-high net worth individuals and endowments, foundations and other institutional investors. In addition to a wide range of investment capabilities, we offer a full suite of complementary and customized family office services for families seeking a comprehensive oversight of their financial affairs. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, our assets under management grew 5.0% and 30.4%, respectively, from $13.9 billion to $14.6 billion and from $11.2 billion to $14.6 billion, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, our assets under management grew by 4.7% and 10.9%, respectively, from $10.7 billion to $11.2 billion and from $10.1 billion to $11.2 billion, respectively.

As part of the reorganization of our Company that occurred in connection with our initial public offering, Silvercrest became the general partner of Silvercrest L.P, our operating company. The business includes the management of funds of funds, and other investment funds, collectively referred to as the “Silvercrest Funds”. In addition, the partnership units of all continuing partners of Silvercrest L.P. were converted to Class B units that have equal economic rights to our shares of Class A common stock. Silvercrest L.P. has issued deferred equity units exercisable for 191,828 Class B units which entitle the holders thereof to receive distributions from Silvercrest L.P. to the same extent as if the underlying Class B units were outstanding. Net profits and net losses of Silvercrest L.P. will be allocated, and distributions from Silvercrest L.P. will be made, to its current partners pro rata in accordance with their respective partnership units (and assuming the Class B units underlying all deferred equity units are outstanding).

The historical results of operations discussed in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations include those of Silvercrest L.P. and its subsidiaries. Following the completion of our reorganization, as the general partner of Silvercrest L.P., we control its business and affairs and, therefore, consolidate its financial results with ours. The interests of our limited partners’ collective 54.0% partnership interest in Silvercrest L.P. as of September 30, 2013 are reflected in Non-controlling interests in our consolidated financial statements. As a result of the reorganization being completed at the end of the second quarter, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of December 31, 2012, the results of operations and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2013, and the Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, are those of Silvercrest L.P. Beginning with the third quarter ending September 30, 2013 our net income, after amounts attributable to non-controlling interests, represents 46.0% of Silvercrest L.P.’s net income.

We generate revenue from management and advisory fees, performance fees, and family office services fees. Our management and advisory fees are generated by managing assets on behalf of separate accounts and acting as investment adviser for various investment funds. Our performance fees relate to assets managed in external investment strategies in which we have a revenue sharing arrangement and in funds in which we have no partnership interest. Our management and advisory fees and family office services fees income is recognized through the course of the period in which these services are provided. Income from performance fees is recorded at the conclusion of the contractual performance period when all contingencies are resolved. In certain arrangements, we are only entitled to receive performance fees and allocations when the return on assets under management exceeds certain benchmark returns or other performance targets.

The discretionary investment management agreements for our separately managed accounts do not have a specified term. Rather, each agreement may be terminated by either party at any time upon written notice of termination to the other party. The investment management agreements for our private funds are generally in effect from year to year, and may be terminated at the end of any year (or, in certain cases, on the anniversary of execution of the agreement) (i) by us upon 30 or 90 days’ prior written notice and (ii) after receiving the affirmative vote of a specified percentage of the investors in the private fund that are not affiliated with us, by the private fund on 60 or 90 days’ prior written notice. The investment management agreements for our private funds may also generally be terminated effective immediately by either party where the non-terminating party (i) commits a material breach of the terms subject, in certain cases, to a cure period, (ii) is found to have committed fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct or (iii) terminates, become bankrupt, becomes insolvent or dissolves. Each of our investment management agreements contains customary indemnification obligations from us to our clients. The tables below set forth the amount of assets under management, the percentage of management and advisory fees revenues, the amount of revenue recognized, and the average assets under management for discretionary managed accounts and for private funds for each period presented.

Our advisory fees are primarily driven by the level of our assets under management. Our assets under management increase or decrease based on the net inflows or outflows of funds into our various investment strategies and the investment performance of our

clients’ accounts. In order to increase our assets under management and expand our business, we must develop and market investment strategies that suit the investment needs of our target clients and provide attractive returns over the long term. Our ability to continue to attract clients will depend on a variety of factors including, among others:

The majority of advisory fees that we earn on separately-managed accounts are based on the value of assets under management on the last day of each calendar quarter. Most of our advisory fees are billed quarterly in advance on the first day of each calendar quarter. Our basic annual fee schedule for management of clients’ assets in separately managed accounts is: (i) for managed equity or balanced portfolios, 1% of the first $10 million and 0.60% on the balance, (ii) for managed fixed income only portfolios, 0.40% on the first $10 million and 0.30% on the balance and (iii) for the municipal value strategy, 0.65%. Our fee for monitoring non-discretionary assets can range from 0.05% to 0.01%, but can also be incorporated into an agreed-upon fixed family office service fee. The majority of our client relationships pay a blended fee rate since they are invested in multiple strategies.

Management fees earned on investment funds that we advise are calculated primarily based on the net assets of the funds. Some funds calculate investment fees based on the net assets of the funds as of the last business day of each calendar quarter, whereas other funds calculate investment fees based on the value of net assets on the first business day of the month. Depending on the investment fund, fees are paid either quarterly in advance or quarterly in arrears. For our private funds, the fees range from 0.25% to 1.5% annually. Certain management fees earned on investment funds for which we perform risk management and due diligence services are based on flat fee agreements customized for each engagement.

Average management fee is calculated by dividing our actual revenue earned over a period by our average assets under management during the same period (which is calculated by averaging quarter-end assets under management for the applicable period). Our average management fee was 0.41% and 0.46% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and was 0.44% and 0.47% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The decreases in our total average management fee rates are primarily the result of the addition of approximately $1.9 billion of non-discretionary assets under management related to the Ten-Sixty Asset Management, LLC acquisition in March 2013 without a corresponding increase in management fees. Changes in our total average management fee rates are typically the result of changes in the mix of our assets under management and increased concentration in our equities strategies whose fee rates are higher than those of other investment strategies. Advisory fees are also adjusted for any cash flows into or out of a portfolio, where the cash flow represents greater than 10% of the value of the portfolio. These cash flow-related adjustments were insignificant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. Silvercrest L.P. has authority to take fees directly from external custodian accounts of its separately managed accounts.

Our advisory fees may fluctuate based on a number of factors, including the following:

Our family office services capabilities enable us to provide comprehensive and integrated services to our clients. Our dedicated group of tax and financial planning professionals provide financial planning, tax planning and preparation, partnership accounting and

fund administration and consolidated wealth reporting among other services. Family office services income fluctuates based on both the number of clients for whom we perform these services and the level of agreed-upon fees, most of which are flat fees. Therefore, non-discretionary assets under management, which are associated with family office services, do not typically serve as the basis for the amount of family office services revenue that is recognized. We have experienced a steady increase in family office services fees over the past few years as more of our separately managed accounts relationships have taken advantage of these services. We have also been successful in attracting new clients who have engaged us primarily for our family office services.

Our expenses consist primarily of compensation and benefits expenses, as well as general and administrative expense including rent, professional services fees, data-related costs and sub-advisory fees. These expenses may fluctuate due to a number of factors, including the following:

We expect our professional services fees to increase as a result of being a public company.

Our largest expense is compensation and benefits, which includes the salaries, bonuses, equity-based compensation and related benefits and payroll costs attributable to our principals and employees. Our compensation methodology is intended to meet the following objectives: (i) support our overall business strategy; (ii) attract, retain and motivate top-tier professionals within the investment management industry; and (iii) align our employees’ interests with those of our equity owners. We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, a general rise in compensation and benefits expense commensurate with growth in headcount and with the need to maintain competitive compensation levels.

Following the consummation of our initial public offering, we account for partner incentive distributions as an expense in our Statement of Operations. Accordingly, this will have the effect of increasing compensation expense relative to the amounts that have been recorded historically in our financial statements.

The components of our compensation expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 are as follows:

On February 29, 2012, February 28, 2011 and February 24, 2010, Silvercrest L.P. and Silvercrest GP LLC, our predecessor, granted equity-based compensation awards to certain of their principals based on the fair value of the equity interests of Silvercrest L.P. and Silvercrest GP LLC. Each grant included a deferred equity unit and performance unit, subject to forfeiture and acceleration of vesting. As a result of the reorganization of Silvercrest L.P. and the initial public offering, each 100 deferred equity units represent the unsecured right to receive 100 Class B units of Silvercrest L.P., subject to vesting over a four-year period beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant. Each deferred equity unit, whether vested or unvested, entitles the holder to receive distributions from Silvercrest L.P. as if such holder held such unit. Upon each vesting date, a holder may receive the number of units vested or a mixture of the equivalent cash value of some of the units and units, but in no event may the holder receive more than 50% of the aggregate

value in cash. To the extent that holders elect to receive up to 50% of the aggregate value in cash, we could have less cash to utilize. We have accounted for the distributions on the portion of the deferred equity units that are subject to forfeiture as compensation expense. Equity-based compensation expense will be recognized on the February 29, 2012, February 28, 2011 and February 24, 2010 deferred equity unit and performance unit awards through February 29, 2016, February 28, 2015 and February 24, 2014, respectively.

Each performance unit represents the right to receive one Class B unit of Silvercrest L.P. for each two units of Silvercrest L.P. issued upon vesting of the deferred equity units awarded to the employee, in each case subject to the achievement of defined performance goals. Although performance units will only vest upon the achievement of the performance goals, they are expensed over the same vesting period as the deferred equity units with which they are associated because there is an explicit service period.

General and administrative expenses include occupancy-related costs, professional and outside services fees, office expenses, depreciation and amortization, sub-advisory fees and the costs associated with operating and maintaining our research, trading and portfolio accounting systems. Our costs associated with operating and maintaining our research, trading and portfolio accounting systems and professional services expenses generally increase or decrease in relative proportion to the number of employees retained by us and the overall size and scale of our business operations. Sub-advisory fees will fluctuate based on the level of management fees from funds that utilize sub-advisors.

As a result of the completion of our initial public offering, we expect that we will incur additional expenses as a result of being a public company for, among other things, directors and officers insurance, director fees, SEC reporting and compliance, including Sarbanes-Oxley compliance, transfer agent fees, professional fees and other similar expenses. These additional expenses will reduce our net income.

Other income is derived primarily from investment income arising from our investments in various private investment funds that were established as part of our investment strategies. We expect the investment components of other income, in the aggregate, to fluctuate based on market conditions and the success of our investment strategies. Performance fees earned from those investment funds in which we have a partnership interest have been earned over the past few years as a result of the achievement of various high water marks depending on the investment fund. These performance fees are recorded based on the equity method of accounting. The majority of our performance fees over the past few years have been earned from our fixed income-related funds.

After our reorganization, we became the general partner of SLP and control its business and affairs and, therefore, consolidate its financial results with ours. In light of our limited partners’ 54.0% interest in SLP as a result of the consummation of the reorganization and our initial public offering, we reflect their partnership interests as non-controlling interests in our Consolidated Financial Statements.

While Silvercrest L.P. has historically not been subject to U.S. federal and certain state income taxes, it has been subject to the New York City Unincorporated Business Tax. As a result of our reorganization, we became subject to taxes applicable to C-corporations. We expect our effective tax rate, and the absolute dollar amount of our tax expense, to increase as a result of this reorganization offset by the benefits of the tax receivable agreement entered into by our Class B stockholders.

On March 28, 2013, we acquired certain assets of Ten-Sixty Asset Management, LLC. Ten-Sixty Asset Management, LLC is a registered investment adviser that advises on approximately $1.9 billion of assets primarily on behalf of institutional clients. This strategic acquisition expands our hedge fund due diligence capabilities and continues the growth of our institutional business. Under the terms of the asset purchase agreement, we paid cash consideration at closing of $2.5 million and issued a promissory note to Ten-Sixty Asset Management, LLC for $1.5 million subject to adjustment. The aggregate principal amount of the promissory note is

payable in two initial installments of $0.2 million each on April 30, 2013 and December 31, 2013 and then quarterly installments from June 30, 2014 through March 31, 2017 of $0.1 million each. The principal amount outstanding under this note bears interest at the rate of five percent per annum. The principal amount outstanding under this note was $1,374 as of September 30, 2013.

Our revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 are set forth below:

The growth in our assets under management during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 is described below:

Three Months Ended September 30, 2013 versus Three Months Ended September 30, 2012

Our total revenue increased by $1.9 million, or 15.5%, to $14.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, from $12.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. This increase was driven primarily by growth in our management and advisory fees as a result of increased assets under management.

Assets under management increased by $3.4 billion, or 30.4%, to $14.6 billion at September 30, 2013 from $11.2 billion at September 30, 2012. Compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012, there was a decrease in client outflows of $0.7 billion, and an increase in market appreciation of $0.2 billion, which was partially offset by a decrease in client inflows of $0.7 billion.

For the three months ended September 30, 2013, assets under management increased by $0.7 billion, or 5.0%, to $14.6 billion at September 30, 2013 from $13.9 billion at June 30, 2013. Our market appreciation during the three months ended September 30, 2013 constituted a 3.6% rate of increase in our total assets under management compared to June 30, 2013. Our growth in assets under management for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was attributable to an increase of $0.6 billion and $0.1 billion in discretionary and non-discretionary assets under management, respectively, primarily related to increases in separately managed accounts. An increase in the concentration of equity securities, which are included in discretionary assets under management and whose fee rates are higher than those of other investments, was the primary driver of increased management and advisory fees revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the prior year. Sub-advised fund management revenue increased by $0.1 million to $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $0.3 million for the same period in the prior year as a result of the Ten-Sixty Asset Management, LLC acquisition. Proprietary fund management revenue increased by $0.1 million to $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $1.7 million for the same period in the prior year. This increase in proprietary fund management revenue was primarily attributable to market appreciation. With respect to our discretionary assets under management, equity assets experienced growth of 9.4% during the three months ended September 30, 2013, and fixed income assets increased by 2.0% during the same period. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, most of our growth came from our small cap value, focused value and multi cap value strategies with composite returns of 9.9%, 9.0% and 6.9%, respectively. As of September 30, 2013, the composition of our assets under management was 63% in discretionary assets, which includes both separately managed accounts and proprietary and sub-advised funds, and 37% in non-discretionary assets which represent assets on which we provide portfolio reporting but do not have investment discretion.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013 versus Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012

Our total revenue increased by $5.3 million, or 14.2%, to $42.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, from $37.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This increase was driven primarily by growth in our management and advisory fees as a result of increased assets under management.

Assets under management increased by $3.4 billion, or 30.4%, to $14.6 billion at September 30, 2013 from $11.2 billion at September 30, 2012. Compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012, there was an increase of $0.1 billion of client inflows, a decrease of $1.2 billion in client outflows, and an increase of $1.0 billion in market appreciation.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, assets under management increased by $3.4 billion, or 30.4%, to $14.6 billion at September 30, 2013 from $11.2 billion at December 31, 2012. Our market appreciation during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 constituted a 13.4% rate of increase in our total assets under management compared to December 31, 2012. Our growth in assets under management for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was attributable to an increase of $1.2 billion and $2.3 billion in discretionary and non-discretionary assets under management, respectively, primarily related to the Ten-Sixty Asset Management, LLC acquisition. The growth in our discretionary assets under management was primarily driven by an increase in separately managed accounts. An increase in the concentration of equity securities, which are included in discretionary assets under management and whose fee rates are higher than those of other investments, was the primary driver of increased management and advisory fees revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the prior year. Sub-advised fund management revenue increased by $0.3 million to $1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from $0.9 million for the same period in the prior year as a result of the Ten-Sixty Asset Management, LLC acquisition. Proprietary fund management revenue remained flat for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the same period in the prior year. With respect to our discretionary assets under management, equity assets experienced growth of 25.7% during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, while fixed income assets decreased by 1.7% during the same period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, most of our growth came from our small cap value, focused value and equity income strategies with composite returns of 27.1%, 27.0% and 22.7%, respectively. As of September 30, 2013, the composition of our assets under management was 63% in discretionary assets, which includes both separately managed accounts and proprietary and sub-advised funds, and 37% in non-discretionary assets which represent assets on which we provide portfolio reporting but do not have investment discretion.

Our expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 are set forth below:

Our expenses are driven primarily by our compensation costs. The table included in “—Expenses— Compensation and Benefits Expense” describes the components of our compensation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. Other expenses, such as rent, professional service fees, data-related costs, and sub-advisory fees incurred are included in our general and administrative expenses.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2013 versus Three Months Ended September 30, 2012

Total expenses increased by $3.7 million, or 47.7%, to $11.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $7.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to increases in compensation and benefits expense and general and administrative expenses of $3.6 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

Compensation and benefits expense increased by $3.6 million, or 74.2%, to $8.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $4.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the accrual for bonuses of $3.2 million as a result of the recognition of partner incentive payments as compensation expense, and an increase in salaries and benefits expense of $0.3 million and $0.1 million, respectively, as a result of both merit increases and increased headcount.

General and administrative expenses increased by $0.2 million, or 5.2%, to $3.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $3.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. This increase was primarily due to an increase in investor relation costs of $0.1, an increase in recruiting costs of $0.1 and an increase in client promotion costs of $0.1. Partially offsetting this increase was a reduction in sub-advisory fees of $0.1 million as a result of the Ten-Sixty Asset Management, LLC acquisition.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013 versus Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012

Total expenses increased by $5.5 million, or 24.2%, to $28.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from $22.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to increases in compensation and benefits expense and general and administrative expenses of $5.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

Compensation and benefits expense increased by $5.1 million, or 35.4%, to $19.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from $14.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the accrual for bonuses of $3.2 million as a result of the recognition of partner incentive payments as compensation expense, special non-principal bonuses of $0.8 million that were paid in July upon consummation of our initial public offering, an increase in salaries and benefits expense of $0.6 million and $0.2 million, respectively, as a result of both merit increases and increased headcount, and increased equity-based compensation expense of $0.3 million primarily due to an increase in the fair value of the deferred equity units.

General and administrative expenses increased by $0.4 million, or 4.7%, to $8.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from $8.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This increase was primarily due to an increase in occupancy expense of $0.6 million because in 2012, after reoccupying space at our headquarters, we reversed a lease abandonment liability that was originally recorded in 2009, which had the effect of reducing occupancy expense in 2012, an increase in investor relation costs of $0.1 million, an increase in recruiting costs of $0.1 million and an increase in client promotion costs of $0.1 million, Partially offsetting this increase was a reduction in professional fees of $0.4 million as a result of incurring fees for services rendered in the prior year in connection with a planned initial public offering that was withdrawn in 2012 and acquisition transactions. Furthermore, our sub-advisory fees decreased by $0.1 million as a result of the Ten-Sixty Asset Management, LLC acquisition.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2013 versus Three Months Ended September 30, 2012

Other income (expense), net decreased by $125 thousand to $115 thousand of other expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $10 thousand of other income for the three months ended September 30, 2012 primarily due to an increase in interest expense related to borrowings under our credit facility, the issuance of a note in 2013 related to the Ten-Sixty acquisition, and notes issued to two former partners in conjunction with their share redemptions prior to our initial public offering.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013 versus Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012

Other income (expense), net increased by $68 thousand to $117 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from $49 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 primarily due to a $127 thousand increase in interest expense related to borrowings under our credit facility, the issuance of a note in 2013 related to the Ten-Sixty acquisition, and notes issued to two former partners in conjunction with their share redemptions prior to our initial public offering. Partly offsetting these increases were reductions in interest expense of $98 thousand primarily as a result of a write-off of prepaid interest expense in 2012 related to the reversal of a lease abandonment liability, in addition to principal payments made in 2013 on a note issued as part of the Milbank acquisition.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2013 versus Three Months Ended September 30, 2012

The provision for income taxes was $0.8 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The change was a result of both the recognition of corporate income tax expense related to our initial public offering and a projected increase in taxable income. Our provision for income taxes as a percentage of income before provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was 26.8% and 5.9%, respectively.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013 versus Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012

The provision for income taxes was $1.5 million and $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The change was a result of both the recognition of corporate income tax expense related to our initial public offering and a projected increase in taxable income. Our provision for income taxes as a percentage of income before provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was 10.2% and 5.4%, respectively.

To provide investors with additional insight, promote transparency and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, we supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a basis consistent with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, with Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share which are non-GAAP financial measures of earnings.

These adjustments, and the non-GAAP financial measures that are derived from them, provide supplemental information to analyze our operations between periods and over time. Investors should consider our non-GAAP financial measure in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The following tables contain reconciliations of net income to Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share (amounts in thousands except per share amounts).

Historically, the working capital needs of our business have primarily been met through cash generated by our operations. We expect that our cash and liquidity requirements in the next twelve months will be met primarily through cash generated by our operations.

On June 24, 2013, the subsidiaries of Silvercrest L.P. entered into a $15.0 million credit facility with City National Bank. The subsidiaries of Silvercrest L.P. are the borrowers under such facility and Silvercrest L.P. guarantees the obligations of its subsidiaries under the credit facility. The credit facility is secured by certain assets of Silvercrest L.P. and its subsidiaries. The credit facility consists of a $7.5 million delayed draw term loan that matures on June 24, 2020 and a $7.5 million revolving credit facility that matures on December 24, 2016. The loan bears interest at either (a) the higher of the prime rate plus a margin of 0.05 percentage points and 2.5% or (b) the LIBOR rate plus 3 percentage points, at the borrowers’ option. On June 28, 2013, Silvercrest L.P. borrowed $7 million under the revolving credit facility to partially fund a $10.0 million distribution that was made in July 2013 to the existing limited partners of Silvercrest L.P. prior to the closing of our initial public offering. Such distribution is not indicative of the amount of any future distributions. As of September 30, 2013, $5.0 million remained outstanding on the revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2013, no amount has been drawn on the term loan credit facility and the borrowers may draw up to the full amount of the term loan through June 25, 2018. Borrowings under the term loan on or prior to June 24, 2015 will be payable in twenty equal quarterly installments. Borrowings under the term loan after June 24, 2015 will be payable in equal quarterly installments through the maturity date. The new credit facility contains restrictions on, among other things, (i) incurrence of additional debt, (ii) creating liens

on certain assets, (iii) making certain investments, (iv) consolidating, merging or otherwise disposing of substantially all of our assets, (v) the sale of certain assets, and (vi) entering into transactions with affiliates. In addition, the credit facility contains certain financial covenants including a test on discretionary assets under management, maximum debt to EBITDA and a fixed charge coverage ratio. The credit facility contains customary events of default, including the occurrence of a change in control which includes a person or group of persons acting together acquiring more than 30% of total voting securities of Silvercrest. Any undrawn amounts under this facility would be available to fund future acquisitions or for working capital purposes, if needed. We were in compliance with the covenants under the credit facility as of September 30, 2013.

Our ongoing sources of cash will primarily consist of management fees and family office services fees, which are principally collected quarterly. We will primarily use cash flow from operations to pay compensation and related expenses, general and administrative expenses, income taxes, debt service, capital expenditures, distributions and dividends on shares of our Class A common stock.

Seasonality typically affects cash flow since the first quarter of each year includes as a source of cash, the prior year’s annual performance fee payments, if any, from our various funds and external investment strategies and, as a use of cash, the prior fiscal year’s incentive compensation. We believe that we have sufficient cash from our operations to fund our operations and commitments for the next twelve months.

The following table sets forth certain key financial data relating to our liquidity and capital resources as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

We anticipate that distributions to the limited partners of Silvercrest L.P. will continue to be a material use of our cash resources and will vary in amount and timing based on our operating results and dividend policy. We currently intend to declare quarterly cash dividends to our Class A stockholders beginning in the fourth quarter of 2013. We are a holding company and have no material assets other than our ownership of interests in Silvercrest L.P. As a result, we will depend upon distributions from Silvercrest L.P. to pay any dividends to our Class A stockholders. We expect to cause Silvercrest L.P. to make distributions to us in an amount sufficient to cover dividends, if any, declared by us. Our dividend policy has certain risks and limitations, particularly with respect to liquidity. Although we expect to pay dividends according to our dividend policy, we may not pay dividends according to our policy, or at all, if, among other things, we do not have the cash necessary to pay our intended dividends or our subsidiaries are prevented from making a distribution to us under the terms of our new credit facility or any future financing. To the extent we do not have cash on hand sufficient to pay dividends, we may decide not to pay dividends. By paying cash dividends rather than investing that cash in our future growth, we risk slowing the pace of our growth, or not having a sufficient amount of cash to fund our operations or unanticipated capital expenditures, should the need arise.

Our purchase of Class B units in Silvercrest L.P. that occurred concurrently with the consummation of our initial public offering, and the future exchanges of Class B units of Silvercrest L.P., are expected to result in increases in our share of the tax basis of the tangible and intangible assets of Silvercrest L.P. at the time of our acquisition and these future exchanges, which will increase the tax depreciation and amortization deductions that otherwise would not have been available to us. These increases in tax basis and tax depreciation and amortization deductions are expected to reduce the amount of tax that we would otherwise be required to pay in the future. We entered into a tax receivable agreement with the current principals of Silvercrest L.P. and any future employee-holders of Class B units pursuant to which we agreed to pay them 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax that we actually realize as a result of these increases in tax basis and certain other tax benefits related to entering into the tax receivable agreement, including tax benefits attributable to payments thereunder. The timing of these payments is currently unknown. The payments to be made pursuant to the tax receivable agreement will be a liability of Silvercrest and not Silvercrest L.P., and thus this liability has been recorded as an “other liability” on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. For purposes of the tax receivable agreement, cash savings in income tax will be computed by comparing our actual income tax liability to

the amount of such taxes that we would have been required to pay had there been no increase in our share of the tax basis of the tangible and intangible assets of Silvercrest L.P.

The actual increase in tax basis, as well as the amount and timing of any payments under the tax receivable agreement, will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the timing of exchanges, the price of shares of our Class A common stock at the time of the exchange, the extent to which such exchanges are taxable, the amount and timing of our income and the tax rates then applicable. Nevertheless, we expect that as a result of the size of the increases in the tax basis of our tangible and intangible assets, the payments that we may make under the tax receivable agreement likely will be substantial. Assuming no material changes in the relevant tax law and that we earn sufficient taxable income to realize the full tax benefit of the increased depreciation and amortization of our assets, we expect that future payments to the selling principals of Silvercrest L.P. in respect of our purchase of Class B units from them will aggregate approximately $3.7 million. Future payments to current principals of Silvercrest L.P. and future holders of Class B units in respect of subsequent exchanges would be in addition to these amounts and are expected to be substantial. We intend to fund required payments pursuant to the tax receivable agreement from the distributions received from Silvercrest L.P.

The following table sets forth our cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. Operating activities consist of net income subject to adjustments for changes in operating assets and liabilities, depreciation, and equity-based compensation expense. Investing activities consist primarily of acquiring and selling property and equipment, distributions received from investments in investment funds, and cash paid as part of business acquisitions. Financing activities consist primarily of contributions from partners, distributions to partners, the issuance and payments on partner notes, other financings, and earnout payments related to business acquisitions.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013 versus Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012

Operating activities provided $19.9 million and $14.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. This difference is partially the result of increased distributions from investment funds of $0.9 million for the same period. Our working capital increased due to an increase in collections of receivables and fees due from Silvercrest Funds of $0.8 million resulting primarily from greater revenue, and accrued compensation of $3.3 million due to the recognition of partner incentive payment compensation expense beginning in the third quarter of 2013.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013 versus Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, investing activities used $3.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively. The increase in the use of cash was primarily the result of $2.5 million of cash paid at the closing of the Ten-Sixty Asset Management LLC acquisition in addition to higher earnout payments made related to the Marathon Capital Group, LLC acquisition.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013 versus Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, financing activities used $5.0 million and $12.7 million, respectively. The decrease in net cash used in financing activities from 2012 to 2013 was primarily the result of the sale and issuance of Silvercrest Class A common stock of $56.7 million and borrowings under our credit facility of $7.0 million. This was partially offset by the

purchase of Class B units from partners of Silvercrest L.P. of $35.4 million, payments under our revolving credit facility of $2.0 million, a decrease in payments from partners on notes receivable as compared to prior year as the notes from named executive officers were repaid in September 2012, higher partner incentive allocations paid in 2013, and higher tax distributions paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the same period in 2012. Incentive allocations and tax distributions increased directly as a result of increased profitability and operating cash flow. Also, the earnout payment made in the first half of 2013 was $0.5 million higher than the payment made in the same period in the prior year and offering expenses related to our initial public offering of $1.4 million were paid as of the end of our reporting period.

We anticipate that distributions to principals of Silvercrest L.P. will continue to be a material use of our cash resources, and will vary in amount and timing based on our operating results and dividend policy.

As described below, we have outstanding fixed rate notes payable to Ten-Sixty Asset Management LLC and Milbank Winthrop & Co. related to the Ten-Sixty Asset Management LLC and Milbank Winthrop & Co. acquisitions, and variable rate notes issued to former principals to redeem units held by them under which we exercised our call right upon their termination. Furthermore, we have an outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility.

As of September 30, 2013, the aggregate principal amount of the Ten-Sixty Asset Management LLC promissory note is approximately $1.4 million which is payable in one installment of $0.2 million on December 31, 2013 and then quarterly installments from June 30, 2014 through March 31, 2017 of $0.1 million each. The principal amount outstanding under this note bears interest at the rate of 5% per annum. Accrued but unpaid interest on the notes payable related to the Ten-Sixty Asset Management LLC acquisition was approximately $26 thousand as of September 30, 2013.

The aggregate principal amount of the notes related to the Milbank Winthrop & Co. acquisition matures after four annual principal installments payable on each of November 1, 2013, 2014, and 2015 in the amounts of $0.9 million, $1.0 million, and $0.6 million, respectively, together with all accrued and unpaid interest. If specified conditions are not met by Milbank Winthrop & Co. prior to November 1, 2014, then the principal payment due on November 1, 2015 will be reduced to $0.1 million. The principal amount outstanding under this note bears interest at the rate of 5% per annum.

As of September 30, 2013, $2.5 million remains outstanding on the notes payable related to the Milbank Winthrop & Co. acquisition. Accrued but unpaid interest on the notes payable related to the Milbank Winthrop & Co. acquisition was approximately $110 thousand as of September 30, 2013.

As of September 30, 2012, $5.0 million is outstanding on our revolving credit facility with City National Bank.

As of December 31, 2012, $2.4 million remained outstanding on the notes payable related to the Milbank Winthrop & Co. acquisition. Accrued but unpaid interest on the notes payable related to the Milbank Winthrop & Co. acquisition was approximately $20 thousand as of December 31, 2012.

On June 3, 2013, we redeemed units from two of our former employee-partners. In conjunction with the redemption, we issued promissory notes with an aggregate principal amount of approximately $5.3 million, and such principal amount is subject to downward adjustment to the extent of any breach by the holder of such note. The principal amount of the notes are payable in four equal annual installments on each of June 3, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017. The principal amount outstanding under these notes bears interest at the U.S. Prime Rate plus 1% in effect at the time payments are due.

As of September 30, 2013, $5.7 million remains outstanding on the notes issued to former principals. Accrued but unpaid interest on these notes issued to former principals was approximately $89 thousand as of September 30, 2013. The principal amounts outstanding under these notes bear interest at the U.S. Prime Rate plus 1% in effect at the time payments are due.

As of December 31, 2012, $0.9 million remained outstanding on the notes issued to former principals. Accrued but unpaid interest on these notes issued to former principals was approximately $26 thousand as of December 31, 2012. The principal amounts outstanding under these notes bear interest at the U.S. Prime Rate plus 1% in effect at the time payments are due.

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2013, December 31, 2012 or September 30, 2012.

There have been no changes to our Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates from those disclosed in our Form 10-Q as of June 30, 2013, which is accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Investment advisory fees are typically billed quarterly in advance at the beginning of the quarter or in arrears after the end of the quarter, based on a contractual percentage of the assets managed. Family office services fees are also typically billed quarterly in advance at the beginning of the quarter or in arrears after the end of the quarter based on a contractual percentage of the assets managed or upon a contractually agreed-upon flat fee arrangement. Revenue is recognized on a ratable basis over the period in which services are performed.

We account for performance based revenue in accordance with ASC 605-20-S99, Accounting for Management Fees Based on a Formula, by recognizing performance fees and allocations as revenue only when it is certain that the fee income is earned and payable pursuant to the relevant agreements. In certain arrangements, we are only entitled to receive performance fees and allocations when the return on assets under management exceeds certain benchmark returns or other performance targets. We record performance fees and allocations as a component of revenue.

Because the majority of our revenues are earned based on assets under management that have been determined using fair value methods and since market appreciation/depreciation has a significant impact on our revenue, we have presented our assets under management using the GAAP framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs based on company assumptions (Level 3). A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the instrument’s fair value measurement. The three levels within the fair value hierarchy are described as follows:

The table below summarizes the approximate amount of assets under management for the periods indicated for which fair value is measured based on Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 inputs.

As substantially all our assets under management are valued by independent pricing services based upon observable market prices or inputs, we believe market risk is the most significant risk underlying valuation of our assets under management, as discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our prospectus dated June 26, 2013, filed with the SEC in accordance with Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act of 1933 on June 28, 2013, which is accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and Item 3 “—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk”.

The average value of our assets under management for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was approximately $14.3 billion and $12.9 billion, respectively. Assuming a 10% increase or decrease in our average assets under management and the change being proportionately distributed over all our products, the value would increase or decrease by approximately $1.4 billion and $1.3 billion for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, which would cause an annualized increase or decrease in revenues of approximately $5.9 million and $5.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, at a weighted average fee rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 of 0.41% and 0.44%, respectively.

The average value of our assets under management for the year ended December 31, 2012 was approximately $10.7 billion. Assuming a 10% increase or decrease in our average assets under management and the change being proportionately distributed over all our products, the value would increase or decrease by approximately $1.1 billion, which would cause an annualized increase or decrease in revenues of approximately $4.6 million, at the 2012 weighted average fee rate of 0.43%.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards,” (“IFRS’) which amended guidance on fair value measurements to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in GAAP and IFRS. The amended guidance specifies that the concepts of highest and best use and valuation premise in a fair value measurement are relevant only when measuring the fair value of nonfinancial assets and are not relevant when measuring the fair value of financial assets or of liabilities. The amendments include requirements specific to measuring the fair value of those instruments, such as equity interests used as consideration in a business combination. An entity should measure the fair value of its own equity instrument from the perspective of a market participant that holds the instrument as an asset. With respect to financial instruments that are managed as part of a portfolio, an exception to fair value requirements is provided. That exception permits a reporting entity to measure the fair value of such financial assets and financial liabilities at the price that would be received to sell a net asset position for a particular risk or to transfer a net liability position for a particular risk in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The amendments also clarify that premiums and discounts should only be applied if market participants would do so when pricing the asset or liability. Premiums and discounts related to the size of an entity’s holding (e.g., a blockage factor) rather than as a characteristic of the asset or liability (e.g., a control premium) are not permitted in a fair value measurement.

The guidance also requires enhanced disclosures about fair value measurements, including, among other things, (i) for fair value measurements categorized within Level III of the fair value hierarchy, (1) a quantitative disclosure of the unobservable inputs and assumptions used in the measurement, (2) the valuation process used by the reporting entity and (3) a narrative description of the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in unobservable inputs and the interrelationships between those unobservable inputs, if any, and (ii) the categorization by level of the fair value hierarchy for items that are not measured at fair value in the statement of financial position but for which the fair value is required to be disclosed (for example, a financial instrument that is measured at amortized cost in the statement of financial position but for which fair value is disclosed). The guidance also amends disclosure requirements for significant transfers between Level I and Level II and now requires disclosure of all transfers between Levels I and II in the fair value hierarchy.

The amended guidance was effective for us on January 1, 2012 and did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

other investment companies at fair value rather than using the equity method of accounting. The ASU does not change the current accounting where a noninvestment company parent retains the specialized accounting applied by an investment company subsidiary in consolidation. The ASU is effective for the fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2013. This ASU is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

Our exposure to market risk is directly related to our role as investment adviser for the separate accounts we manage and the funds for which we act as sub-investment adviser. Most of our revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was derived from advisory fees, which are typically based on the market value of assets under management. Accordingly, a decline in the prices of securities would cause our revenue and income to decline due to a decrease in the value of the assets we manage. In addition, such a decline could cause our clients to withdraw their funds in favor of investments offering higher returns or lower risk, which would cause our revenue and income to decline further. Due to the nature of our business, we believe that we do not face any material risk from inflation. Please see our discussion of market risks in “—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates—Revenue Recognition” which is part of Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, 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 Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) at September 30, 2013. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at September 30, 2013.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2013 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

In the normal course of business, we may be subject to various legal and administrative proceedings. Currently, there are no legal proceedings pending or to our knowledge threatened against us.

On July 15, 2013, the Company issued 16,540 shares of Class B Common Stock to one of the employee-partners of SLP in connection with the issuance of a like number of Class B Units of Silvercrest LP to such employee-partner. The Class B Units were issued pursuant to the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan. The shares of Class B Common Stock were issued pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company which requires the Company to issue at the par value per share of Class B Common Stock, one share of Class B Common Stock for each Class B Unit of Silvercrest LP issued. The aggregate price per share and unit issued under the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan was $0.01 and $9.99, respectively. The issuance of the Class B Units and Class B Common Stock was exempt pursuant to Rule 701 and Section 4(2), respectively, of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, since the shares were issued under an employee benefit plan and the issuance of units was not made in a public offering.

On September 30, 2013, the Company purchased from six employee-partners 14,092 shares of Class B common stock at a price equal to the par value thereof in connection with the repurchase of a like number of Class B Units from such employee partners at a price of $13.49 per share.

Pursuant to Rule 406T of Regulation S-T, the interactive data files on Exhibit 101 hereto are deemed not filed or part of a registration statement or prospectus for purposes of Sections 11 and 12 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, are deemed not filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and otherwise are not subject to liability under those sections.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
