T. Rowe Price exited September 2026 with $1.863 trillion in assets under management, down 1.6% sequentially but up 5.4% year over year. Third-quarter revenue rose 5.9% year over year to $2.0 billion, with adjusted operating margins declining from 40.9% in the year-ago period to 40.4%.
With $1.897 trillion in AUM at the end of August 2026, T. Rowe Price is one of the larger US-based asset managers. Retirement accounts and variable-annuity portfolios, which tend to be stickier than retail assets, account for close to two-thirds of managed assets.
