EV has a respectable mutual fund franchise and
is conservatively run. Company is in a highly
competitive business yet it has potential to

This one is pretty much by the numbers. RoE and RoA are both in strong positive territory with RoE at 83.386 and RoA at 23.496. Historically EV shows over 11% earnings growth over the past 5 years showing a history of paying attention.

Looking forward we see next quarter revenues estimated at $216.4M with sales growth estimated at 11.9% for the next year. EPS (ttm) is estimated at 1.572 with a Forward P/E of 13.53, and $293.7M in cash on hand and current dividend yield is a respectable 3.4%.

Asset management is simply the finest business around, and a look at the 25-year charts of EV, TROW and others tells the whole story. Market returns plus increases in total savings have yielded a compound annual growth rate in assets at EV of 25% over the years, and the business is highly scalable. A reputation unsullied by trading scandals, a highly sticky core asset base, and good asset flows are a business that I would definitely want to invest in.
