NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 — THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PREPARATION.

T. Rowe Price Group derives its consolidated revenues and net income primarily from investment advisory services that its subsidiaries provide to individual and institutional investors in the sponsored T. Rowe Price mutual funds and other investment portfolios. We also provide our investment advisory clients with related administrative services, including mutual fund transfer agent, accounting and shareholder services; participant recordkeeping and transfer agent services for defined contribution retirement plans; discount brokerage; and trust services. While investors that we serve are primarily domiciled in the United States of America, investment advisory clients outside the United States account for more than 8% of our assets under management at September 30, 2007.

Investment advisory revenues depend largely on the total value and composition of assets under our management. Accordingly, fluctuations in financial markets and in the composition of assets under management impact our revenues and results of operations.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of our results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

The unaudited interim financial information contained in these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in our 2006 Annual Report.

NOTE 2 — INFORMATION ABOUT RECEIVABLES, REVENUES, AND SERVICES.

Accounts receivable from our sponsored mutual funds for advisory fees and advisory-related administrative services aggregate $122.9 million at December 31, 2006 and $136.6 million at September 30, 2007.

NOTE 4 – INCOME TAXES.

The January 1, 2007 adoption of FASB Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, did not affect our financial position. Our liability at the date of adoption for unrecognized tax benefits was $3.0 million. If recognized, this amount would affect our effective tax rate; however, we do not expect that these unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change this year. Our United States federal tax obligations have been settled through the year 2000. Our accounting policy with respect to interest and penalties arising from income tax settlements is to recognize them as part of our provision for income taxes. Net interest recoverable of $1.8 million was accrued as of the date of adoption.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
T. Rowe Price Group, Inc.:

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2007, the related condensed consolidated statements of income for the three- and nine- month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2007, the related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2007, and the related condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007. These condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income, cash flows, and stockholders’ equity for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 7, 2007, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2006, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

GENERAL.

Our revenues and net income are derived primarily from investment advisory services provided to individual and institutional investors in our sponsored mutual funds and other managed investment portfolios. Investment advisory clients outside the United States account for more than 8% of our assets under management at September 30, 2007.

We manage a broad range of U.S. and international stock, bond, and money market mutual funds and other investment portfolios which meet the varied needs and objectives of individual and institutional investors. Investment advisory revenues depend largely on the total value and composition of assets under our management. Accordingly, fluctuations in financial markets and in the composition of assets under management impact our revenues and results of operations.

The equity markets in the United States entered 2007 on an upward trend that began in August 2006 when the Federal Reserve discontinued its series of interest rate increases. In February, weak economic data and a sharp decline in the values of Chinese equities turned 2007’s early market gains to losses. The financial markets then rebounded slightly before falling off again at the end of March. April and May brought a market resurgence with the S&P 500 Index recording a new high. Stocks peaked the first week of June and then, similar to the first quarter experience, fell back slightly to end the second quarter. The markets again reached new all-time highs in mid-July, then fell sharply through mid-August amid concerns that increasing mortgage defaults and delinquencies, tighter lending conditions, and severely constricted liquidity in the asset-backed commercial paper market would lead to a significant economic slowdown. Stocks rebounded strongly, however, after the Federal Reserve reduced short-term interest rates in September and signaled its continuing readiness to inject additional reserves into the U.S. banking system to boost liquidity and dampen the impact of market disruptions on the economy. In this environment, U.S. equities produced moderate returns for the third quarter, including nearly 3.8% (excluding dividends) for the NASDAQ and 2.0% for the S&P 500. Comparable returns for these indexes for the first nine months of 2007 were 11.8% and 9.1%, respectively.

Stocks in developed markets outside the United States fared better than their U.S. counterparts, as a significantly weaker dollar increased the dollar valuations of foreign equities. European markets produced moderate gains, while Japanese shares were flat. Led by Asian stocks, emerging markets substantially outperformed other foreign equities in the third quarter. The MSCI Emerging Markets Index returned 14.5% during the quarter, and for the year-to-date period has posted gains of 34.8%. The MSCI EAFE Index, which measures the performance of mostly large-cap stocks in Europe, Australasia, and the Far East, returned 2.2% during the third quarter and 13.6% for the first nine months of 2007.

The yield on 10-year U.S. Treasuries was 4.59% at the end of the third quarter of 2007, down from 4.71% at the end of 2006 and 5.03% at June 30, 2007. Amidst the financial market disruptions of the third quarter, the Federal Reserve reduced its target federal funds rate, which banks use as a benchmark for their prime lending rates, from 5.25% to 4.75% in mid-September. This 50 basis point reduction in the target rate was greater than generally expected and the first rate cut since June 2003. In these circumstances, U.S. Treasury bonds produced strong returns for the third quarter, as investors sought a safe haven away from equity market volatility in high quality fixed-income securities.

In this financial environment, total assets under our management ended the third quarter of 2007 at a record $396.8 billion, up $17.0 billion or 4.5% during the quarter, and $62.1 billion or 18.6% for the first nine months of 2007. Our strong relative investment performance and brand awareness contributed significantly to investors entrusting net inflows of $7.2 billion during the third quarter and $24.8 billion year-to-date in 2007. Higher market valuations and income added nearly $9.8 billion during the quarter and $37.3 billion in the first nine months of 2007. Assets under management have increased across each of our four distribution channels, with the largest increase sourced from third-party financial intermediaries.

Assets under management at September 30, 2007, include $321.2 billion in equity and blended asset investment portfolios and $75.6 billion in fixed income investment portfolios. The underlying investment portfolios consist of $246.3 billion in the T. Rowe Price mutual funds distributed in the United States and $150.5 billion in other investment portfolios that we manage, including separately managed accounts, sub-advised funds, and other sponsored investment funds offered to investors outside the U.S. and through variable annuity life insurance plans.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – Three months ended September 30, 2007 versus 2006.

Investment advisory revenues were up nearly 29%, or $108.2 million, to $483.4 million as average assets under our management increased $84.0 billion to $381.9 billion. The average annualized fee rate earned on our assets under management was 50.2 basis points in the 2007 quarter, virtually unchanged from the 50.3 basis points earned during the year 2006. Assets under our management are $396.8 billion at September 30, 2007, up nearly 4.0% from the average during the 2007 third quarter.

Net revenues increased nearly 27%, or $120.4 million, to $571.0 million. Operating expenses were $307.2 million in the third quarter of 2007, up $57.2 million from the 2006 third quarter. Overall, net operating income for the third quarter of 2007 increased $63.2 million, or 31.5%, to $263.8 million.

Net income increased $46.5 million, or 36%, to $174.8 million for the 2007 quarter, boosting diluted earnings per share 37% from $.46 to $.63.

Investment advisory revenues earned from the T. Rowe Price mutual funds distributed in the United States increased nearly 29%, or $77.5 million, to $348.3 million. Average mutual fund assets were $237.9 billion in the third quarter of 2007, an increase of 29% over the comparable 2006 quarterly average. Mutual fund assets at September 30, 2007 were $246.3 billion, up $9.0 billion during the third quarter of 2007.

Net inflows to the mutual funds were $3.7 billion during the third quarter of 2007, including $2.2 billion that originated in our target-date Retirement Funds. Our international and global stock funds had net inflows of $1.4 billion, our U.S. stock and blended asset funds added $1.2 billion, and our bond and money funds added $1.1 billion. During the 2007 quarter, net investments were distributed across several funds, including $.7 billion into the New Asia Fund, $.6 billion to the New Income Fund, and $.5 billion to each of the Growth Stock, Blue Chip Growth and Equity Index 500 funds. Higher market valuations and income increased fund assets by $5.3 billion during the 2007 quarter.

Investment advisory revenues earned on the other investment portfolios that we manage increased $30.7 million, or 29%, to $135.1 million. Average assets in these portfolios were $144.0 billion in the third quarter of 2007, up 27% from the comparable 2006 quarterly average. Quarter-end assets totaled $150.5 billion, an increase of $8.0 billion during the third quarter of 2007. Net inflows, primarily from third-party financial intermediaries and U.S. and international institutional investors, were $3.5 billion and market gains and income added nearly $4.5 billion.

Administrative fees increased $12.3 million to $87.4 million. The change in these revenues includes $3.1 million from 12b-1 distribution fees recognized on greater assets under management in the Advisor and R classes of our sponsored mutual fund shares. The balance of the increase is primarily attributable to our mutual fund servicing activities and defined contribution plan recordkeeping services for the mutual funds and their investors. Changes in administrative fees are generally offset by similar changes in related operating expenses that are incurred to distribute the Advisor and R class fund shares through third party financial intermediaries and to provide services to the funds and their investors.

Our largest expense, compensation and related costs, increased $40.0 million, or almost 24%, from the comparable 2006 quarter. The largest part of the increase is attributable to a $15.1 million increase to our interim bonus compensation accrual, which is based on projected operating results for 2007 that consider our strong relative and risk-adjusted investment performance, our growth in assets under management including net investor inflows, and the high quality of our investor services. The 2007 quarterly results also include an increase of nearly $9.8 million in salary expense from the 2006 quarter, which results from an increase in our average staff size of 9.7% coupled with an increase of our associates’ base salaries at the beginning of the year. At September 30, 2007, we employed 4,984 associates, up 8.2% from the beginning of 2007, primarily to handle increased volume-related activities and other growth. Other employee benefits and employment expenses, including $5.1 million of higher, non-cash stock-based compensation, account for the remainder of the increase in our compensation and related costs in the 2007 quarter.

Occupancy and facility costs together with depreciation expense increased $5.0 million. Our operating costs for technology and other equipment, maintenance and other leased facility costs have increased along with our staff size and business needs.

Other operating expenses were up $11.2 million, including $3.1 million of higher distribution expenses recognized on greater assets under management sourced from financial intermediaries that distribute our Advisor and R classes of mutual fund shares. These distribution costs are offset by an equal increase in our administrative revenues recognized from the 12b-1 fees discussed above. Additionally, consulting and professional fees, information services, travel, and other costs have risen this year to meet increased business demands.

The third quarter 2007 provision for income taxes as a percentage of pretax income has been recognized using a rate of 37.9% in order that the provision for the first nine months of 2007 reflects a 38.1% rate. This new estimate of our 2007 effective rate is down slightly from the 38.3% rate for the year 2006. We currently estimate that our 2008 effective tax rate will be in the range experienced in 2006 — 2007.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – Nine months ended September 30, 2007 versus 2006.

Investment advisory revenues were up 25%, or $273.7 million, to almost $1.4 billion as average assets under our management increased $74.1 billion to $365.5 billion. The average annualized fee rate earned on our assets under management was 50.2 basis points during the first nine months of 2007, virtually unchanged from the 50.3 basis points earned during the year 2006.

Net revenues increased 23%, or $304.6 million, to more than $1.6 billion. Operating expenses were $896.7 million in the first nine months of 2007, up 19% or $142.8 million from the 2006 period. Overall, net operating income for the first nine months of 2007 increased $161.8 million, or 28%, to $733.8 million. Our operating margin was 45.0% for the first nine months of 2007, up from 43.4% for the year 2006. Net income increased $99.2 million, or 26%, to $479.9 million for the first nine months, boosting diluted earnings per share more than 25% from $1.37 to $1.72.

Investment advisory revenues earned from the T. Rowe Price mutual funds distributed in the United States increased nearly 24%, or $189.9 million, to nearly $1 billion. Average mutual fund assets were $227.9 billion in the first nine months of 2007, an increase of nearly 25% over the average for the 2006 period. Mutual fund assets increased $39.8 billion during the first nine months of 2007.

Net inflows to the mutual funds were $16.6 billion during the first nine months of 2007, including $7.3 billion that originated in our target-date Retirement Funds. Our U.S. stock and blended asset funds had net inflows of $9.3 billion, our bond funds added $3.3 billion, our international and global stock funds added $3.1 billion, and our money market funds added $.9 billion. The Growth Stock Fund added $4.2 billion of net investments while the New Income, Equity Index 500, Value, Overseas Stock, New Asia, Blue Chip Growth and Capital Appreciation funds each added at least $1 billion and together accounted for net inflows of $9.1 billion. Higher market valuations and income increased fund assets by $23.2 billion.

Investment advisory revenues earned on the other investment portfolios that we manage increased $83.8 million, or 28%, to $382.5 million. Average assets in these portfolios were $137.6 billion over the first nine months of 2007, up almost 27% from the average in the comparable 2006 period. Other investment portfolio assets increased $22.3 billion during the first nine months, including $8.2 billion of net inflows from U.S. and international institutional investors and third-party financial intermediaries, and $14.1 billion from market gains and income.

Administrative fees increased $30.9 million to $257.2 million. The change in these revenues includes $7.7 million from 12b-1 distribution fees recognized on greater assets under management in the Advisor and R classes of our sponsored mutual fund shares. The balance of the increase is primarily attributable to our mutual fund servicing activities and defined contribution plan recordkeeping services for the mutual funds and their investors.

Our largest expense, compensation and related costs, increased $95.5 million, or 19%, over the comparable 2006 period. The largest part of the increase is attributable to a $34.8 million increase to our interim bonus compensation accrual and an increase of $27.3 million in salaries. Our average number of associates has increased 8.3% from the comparable 2006 period. Other employee benefits and employment expenses, including $11.7 million of higher, non-cash stock-based compensation, account for the remainder of the increase in our compensation and related costs.

Advertising and promotion expenditures increased $5.6 million on a comparable year-to-date basis in response to investor interest. We expect our fourth quarter 2007 advertising and promotion expenditures to be up about $8 million from the comparable 2006 quarter.

Occupancy and facility costs together with depreciation expense increased $14.8 million. Our operating costs for technology and other equipment, maintenance and other leased facility costs have increased along with our staff size and business needs.

Other operating expenses were up $26.9 million, or 27%, including $7.7 million of higher distribution expenses recognized on greater assets under management sourced from financial intermediaries that distribute our Advisor and R classes of mutual fund shares. Additionally, consulting and professional fees, information services, travel, and other costs have risen this year to meet increased business demands.

Our net non-operating income, which includes interest income as well as the recognition of investment gains and losses, decreased $6.7 million. While larger investments in U.S. Treasuries as well as greater holdings in our sponsored money market and other mutual funds have increased our investment income, the 2006 period included a gain of $12.2 million upon the liquidation of a sponsored collateralized bond obligation that did not recur.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY.

Operating activities during the first nine months of 2007 provided cash flows of $687.2 million, up $162.9 million from the 2006 period, including increased net income of $99.2 million, and increases in non-cash expenses of $18.7 million for depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation. Timing differences in the cash settlements of our assets and liabilities increased our cash flow by $45.0 million versus the 2006 period. The larger interim accrual for our annual bonus, which is generally paid in December, accounts for $34.8 million of this increase.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $274.5 million, up $19.7 million from the 2006 period. Our capital spending for property and equipment increased $33.7 million in the 2007 period. Our anticipated capital expenditures for property and equipment in 2007 are expected to be about $150 million, down from the estimate of $170 million made in our 2006 annual report, but up $55 million from 2006. Our preliminary estimates include capital expenditures of about $190 million in 2008.

Net cash used in financing activities was $338.0 million in the first nine months of 2007, up $141.1 million from the comparable 2006 period. During the 2007 period, we expended $85.0 million more for common stock repurchases and received $18.3 million less in proceeds from option exercises. Dividends paid increased $24.6 million. Changes in savings bank deposit activity resulted in a $13.2 million increase in cash used.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION.

From time to time, information or statements provided by or on behalf of T. Rowe Price, including those within this report, may contain certain forward-looking information, including information or anticipated information relating to changes in our revenues and net income, changes in the amount and composition of our assets under management, our expense levels, our estimated effective income tax rate, and our expectations regarding financial markets and other conditions. Readers are cautioned that any forward-looking information provided by or on behalf of T. Rowe Price is not a guarantee of future performance. Actual results may differ materially from those in forward-looking information because of various factors including, but not limited to, those discussed below and in Item 1A of our 2006 Form 10-K Annual Report under the caption Risk Factors. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which it is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Our future revenues and results of operations will fluctuate primarily due to changes in the total value and composition of assets under our management. Such changes result from many factors including, among other things: cash inflows and outflows in the T. Rowe Price mutual funds and other managed investment portfolios; fluctuations in the financial markets around the world that result in appreciation or depreciation of the assets under our management; our introduction of new mutual funds and investment portfolios; and changes in retirement savings trends relative to participant-directed investments and defined contribution plans. The ability to attract and retain investors’ assets under our management is dependent on investor sentiment and confidence; the relative investment performance of the Price mutual funds and other managed investment portfolios as compared to competing offerings and market indexes; the ability to maintain our investment management and administrative fees at appropriate levels; competitive conditions in the mutual fund, asset management, and broader financial services sectors; and our level of success in implementing our strategy to expand our business. Our revenues are substantially dependent on fees earned under contracts with the Price funds and could be adversely affected if the independent directors of one or more of the Price funds terminated or significantly altered the terms of the investment management or related administrative services agreements.

Our future results are also dependent upon the level of our expenses, which are subject to fluctuation for the following or other reasons: changes in the level of our advertising expenses in response to market conditions, including our efforts to expand our investment advisory business to investors outside the United States and to further penetrate our distribution channels within the United States; variations in the level of total compensation expense due to, among other things, bonuses, stock option grants, stock awards, changes in our employee count and mix, and competitive factors; any goodwill impairment that may arise; fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates applicable to the costs of our international operations; expenses and capital costs, such as technology assets, depreciation, amortization, and research and development, incurred to maintain and enhance our administrative and operating services infrastructure; unanticipated costs that may be incurred to protect investor accounts and the goodwill of our clients; and disruptions of services, including those provided by third parties, such as facilities, communications, power, and the mutual fund transfer agent and accounting systems.

Our business is also subject to substantial governmental regulation, and changes in legal, regulatory, accounting, tax, and compliance requirements may have a substantial effect on our operations and results, including but not limited to effects on costs that we incur and effects on investor interest in mutual funds and investing in general, or in particular classes of mutual funds or other investments.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2007. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2007, are effective at the reasonable assurance level to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including this Form 10-Q report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, has evaluated any change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the third quarter of 2007, and has concluded that there was no change during the third quarter of 2007 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

In September 2003, a purported class action (T.K. Parthasarathy, et al., including Woodbury, v. T. Rowe Price International Funds, Inc., et al.) was filed in the Circuit Court, Third Judicial Circuit, Madison County, Illinois, against T. Rowe Price International and the T. Rowe Price International Funds with respect to the T. Rowe Price International Stock Fund. The basic allegations in the case were that the T. Rowe Price defendants did not make appropriate price adjustments to the foreign securities owned by the T. Rowe Price International Stock Fund prior to calculating the Fund’s daily share prices, thereby allegedly enabling market timing traders to trade the Fund’s shares in such a way as to disadvantage long-term investors. Following three years of procedural litigation in State and Federal courts, the case has been remanded to the State Court. The T. Rowe Price defendants have filed a motion to dismiss. A determination is expected in the near future. In the opinion of management, after consultation with counsel, the likelihood of an adverse determination in this matter that would have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations is remote.

T. ROWE PRICE GROUP REPORTS RECORD QUARTERLY RESULTS

Assets Under Management at September 30 Reach $396.8 Billion

BALTIMORE (October 23, 2007) – T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. (NASDAQ-GS: TROW) today reported record quarterly results for the three months ended September 30, 2007, including net revenues of $571 million, net income of nearly $175 million, and diluted earnings per share of $.63, an increase of 37% from $.46 per share in the comparable 2006 quarter. Net revenues in the third quarter of 2006 were $452 million, and net income was $128 million.

Investment advisory revenues were up nearly 29%, or $108 million, from the 2006 third quarter. Record assets under management of $396.8 billion at September 30 are up 4.5% from June 30, 2007. Net cash inflows from investors totaled $7.2 billion while net market appreciation and income added nearly $9.8 billion to assets under management during the quarter.

For the first nine months of 2007, results include net revenues of more than $1.6 billion, net income of almost $480 million, and diluted earnings per share of $1.72 – an increase of more than 25% from $1.37 per share in the comparable 2006 interim period. Assets under management have increased 18.6% or $62.1 billion during the first nine months of 2007. Year-to-date, net cash inflows from investors totaled $24.8 billion and net market appreciation and income added $37.3 billion to assets under management.

Financial Highlights

Investment advisory revenues earned from the T. Rowe Price mutual funds distributed in the United States increased to $348 million for the third quarter of 2007, up $77.5 million from the comparable 2006 quarter. Mutual fund assets increased $9.0 billion during the third quarter of 2007, and ended the quarter at $246.3 billion. Market appreciation and income added $5.3 billion to the mutual funds during the quarter, while investors added net inflows of $3.7 billion. Net cash inflows were spread among the funds, with the international and global stock funds adding $1.4 billion, the U.S. stock and blended asset funds adding $1.2 billion, and the bond and money market funds adding $1.1 billion. The New Asia, New Income, Growth Stock, Blue Chip Growth and Equity Index 500 funds each added more than $.5 billion during the quarter.

The series of target-date Retirement Funds, which provide fund shareholders with single, diversified portfolios that invest in underlying T. Rowe Price funds and automatically adjust fund asset allocations as investors age, continue to be a significant source of mutual fund asset growth, increasing 11.5% or $2.8 billion during the third quarter to total $27.1 billion at September 30, 2007. Mutual fund net inflows of $2.2 billion originated in the Retirement Funds during the third quarter of 2007.

Investment advisory revenues earned from other managed investment portfolios, consisting of institutional separate accounts, sub-advised funds, sponsored investment funds which are offered to investors outside the U.S., and variable insurance portfolios, were $135 million in the 2007 quarter, an increase of nearly $31 million from the 2006 third quarter. Ending assets in these portfolios were $150.5 billion, up $8.0 billion since June 30. Higher market valuations added nearly $4.5 billion and net cash inflows were $3.5 billion during the third quarter. Investors outside the United States now account for more than 8% of assets under management.

Administrative fees increased $12 million to more than $87 million. The change in these revenues includes $3.1 million from 12b-1 distribution fees received on greater assets under management in the Advisor and R classes of T. Rowe Price mutual fund shares. The balance of the increase is primarily attributable to mutual fund servicing activities and defined contribution plan recordkeeping services for the mutual funds and their investors. Changes in administrative fees are generally offset by similar changes in related operating expenses that are incurred to distribute the Advisor and R class fund shares through third party financial intermediaries and to provide services to the funds and their investors.

Operating expenses were $307 million in the third quarter of 2007, up $57 million from the 2006 third quarter. The largest expense, compensation and related costs, increased $40 million, or almost 24%, over the comparable 2006 quarter, primarily due to higher salaries, bonus compensation accruals and stock-based compensation expense. The firm has increased its staff by 8% since the beginning of 2007, primarily to handle increased volume-related activities and other growth. At September 30, the firm employed 4,984 associates.

Advertising and promotion expenditures vary period-to-period in response to investor interest and were up $1 million in the 2007 quarter from the comparable period last year. The firm expects its advertising and promotion expense for the fourth quarter of 2007 to be up about
$8 million from the comparable 2006 period.

Occupancy and facility costs together with depreciation expense increased $5 million. The operating costs for technology and other equipment, maintenance and other leased facility costs have increased along with the firm’s staff size and business needs.

Other operating expenses were up $11 million, including $3.1 million of higher distribution expenses recognized on greater fund assets under management that are sourced from financial intermediaries, which offsets the same increase in administrative revenues from 12b-1 fees. Additionally, consulting and professional fees, information services, travel, and other costs have risen this year to meet increased business demands.

The third quarter 2007 provision for income taxes as a percentage of pretax income has been recognized using a rate of 37.9% in order that the provision for the first nine months of 2007 reflects a 38.1% rate. This new estimate of our 2007 effective rate is down slightly from the 38.3% rate for the year 2006. We currently estimate that our 2008 effective tax rate will be in the range experienced in 2006 — 2007.

Management Commentary

James A.C. Kennedy, the company’s Chief Executive Officer and President, commented: “The firm’s investment advisory results relative to our peers remain strong, with 64% of the T. Rowe Price funds across their share classes surpassing their comparable Lipper averages on a total return basis for the one-year period ending September 30, 2007, at least 73% of the funds surpassing their comparable Lipper averages for the three- and five-year periods ending on the same date, and 81% for the ten-year period. In addition, 82 of the T. Rowe Price stock and bond funds across their share classes, which account for almost 69% of stock and bond fund assets under management, ended the third quarter with an overall rating of four or five stars from Morningstar. These four- and five-star-rated investments represent 67.2% of our rated funds and share classes, compared with 32.5% for the overall industry. We continue to receive strong net cash inflows from our clients, reflecting our favorable portfolio performance.

“Our third-quarter performance was achieved during a period of high market volatility. Major U.S. stock indexes again reached new all-time highs in mid-July, then fell sharply through mid-August amid concerns that increasing mortgage defaults and delinquencies, tighter lending conditions, and severely constricted liquidity in the asset-backed commercial paper market would lead to a significant economic slowdown. Stocks rebounded strongly, however, after the Federal Reserve reduced short-term interest rates in September and signaled its continuing readiness to inject additional reserves into the U.S. banking system to boost liquidity and dampen the impact of market disruptions on the economy. For the quarter, major U.S. stock indexes ended mixed, while investment-grade U.S. bonds produced stronger returns. Stocks outside the U.S. and bonds in both developed and emerging markets fared better than their domestic counterparts, as stronger overseas GDP growth and a significantly weaker U.S. dollar increased the value of foreign holdings in dollar terms.

“Looking ahead, despite the recent market turmoil, we remain optimistic about the prospects for stocks over the longer term. We believe that the global economy will continue to grow at a reasonable rate and that the weakness in U.S. housing will continue to work its way through the system. Companies producing stable earnings growth will be afforded higher prices. In our view, this environment should favor our focus on selecting stocks with sound fundamentals and attractive valuations.

“T. Rowe Price’s strong capital position gives us substantial financial flexibility,” Mr. Kennedy added. “In the third quarter, we used our strong cash position to repurchase 2.9 million shares of our common stock.
