Lazard Reports 1.7% Sequential AUM Growth in May on Market Gains
Lazard, Inc. LAZ reported a preliminary asset under management (AUM) balance of $235.3 billion as of May 31, 2025, reflecting an increase of 1.7% from the April 30, 2025, level. The AUM was favorably affected by market appreciation of $7.4 billion and foreign exchange appreciation of $0.2 billion, partly offset by net outflows of $3.7 billion, which included $4.3 billion outflows from a single sub-advised relationship. In May, Lazard's equity assets increased 2.4% from the prior month's level to $180.5 billion. Further, other assets increased 3% from the previous month's level to $9 billion. Fixed-income assets decreased 1.3% sequentially to $45.8 billion. The company's high reliance on financial advisory fees for most of its revenues and persistent net outflows are likely to affect top-line growth to some extent. Nevertheless, the cost-management efforts are expected to aid the company's bottom line in the near term. Over the past year, shares of Lazard have risen 14.3% compared with the industry's growth of 12.4%. Image Source: Zacks Investment Research The company currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
