Friday, April 24, 2009 Federated's Q1 Net is Down 35 Percent Federated Investors posted net income of $37.4 million during the first quarter, down 35 percent from $57.2 million a year ago. The latest quarter's results included non-cash impairment charges of $20.1 million mainly due to intangible assets associated with some acquisitions. Meanwhile, strong sales of fixed income products and continued flows into money market funds propelled Federated's AUM to a record $409.2 billion at the end of March, company executives said. This compares to AUM of $407.3 billion at the end of 2008 and $338.5 billion at the end of March 2008. Federated CEO J. Christopher Donahue said the firm sold $3.2 billion in fixed income mutual funds during the quarter, netting $1.1 billion in bond assets. The first quarter, he said, was Federated's "best quarter for net fixed-income sales in more than five years." Printed from: MFWire.com/story.asp?s=21385 Copyright 2009, InvestmentWires, Inc.
