April 28 (Reuters) - Invesco IVZ.N reported a rise in first-quarter profit on Tuesday, helped by higher income fee, as investors rushed to rejig their portfolios amid worries about AI-driven software disruption and the war in the Middle East.
Here are the details on its results:
Invesco had $2.2 trillion in assets under management as of March 31, compared with $1.88 trillion, a year earlier.
The company's investment management fees rose 25.6% to $1.38 billion in the first quarter from a year earlier.
Total net flows rose to $33.3 billion, compared with $32.6 billion a year ago.
Asset managers' fees are directly tied to the value of their portfolios.
Invesco's performance fees, earned when client returns meet agreed-upon expectations, rose more than three-fold in the quarter.
Excluding one-time costs, the company earned a profit of $260.8 million, or 57 cents per share, compared with $200.5 million, or 44 cents per share, a year earlier.
