Distributions of partner incentive allocations of net income for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 amounted to $30,008, $32,262 and 34,429, respectively. The distributions are included in non-controlling interests in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition and Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.

(4)
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 4,373,315 Class B units, which represents the right to receive their proportionate share of the distributions made by SLP and 205,079 restricted stock units which will vest and settle in the form of Class B units of SLP. The 205,079 restricted stock 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.

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.
