Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements of Eaton Vance Corp. (“the Company”) include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the results for the interim periods in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. As a result, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in the Company’s latest annual report on Form 10-K.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company combined the following line items previously reported within non-operating income (expense) into gains and other investment income, net: interest and other income; net gains (losses) on investments and derivatives; and net foreign currency gains (losses). Also during the second quarter of fiscal 2012, interest income and net gains (losses) on bank loans, other investments, and note obligations of the consolidated CLO entity were combined into gains (losses) and other investment income, net, of the consolidated CLO entity. Amounts for the comparative prior fiscal year periods have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications, which simplify the financial statement presentation, had no impact on previously reported net income or financial position and do not represent a restatement of any previously reported financial results. See Note 16 for the components of gains and other investment income.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company changed the presentation of its Consolidated Statements of Income. The change relates to the classification of net investment income and net investment gains or losses of consolidated sponsored funds. Net investment income earned by consolidated sponsored funds and net investment gains or losses recognized by consolidated sponsored funds, previously included in other revenue, are now presented as components of gains and other investment income. Management believes the revised presentation is more useful to readers of its financial statements as it better highlights the current earnings effect of the investment results of consolidated sponsored funds. Amounts for the comparative prior fiscal year periods have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported net income or financial position and do not represent a restatement of any previously reported financial results.

The following tables present the effects of the change in presentation of net investment income and net investment gains or losses earned by consolidated sponsored funds on the Company’s previously reported Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2011:

2. Principles of Consolidation

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its controlled subsidiaries. The Company consolidates all investments in affiliates in which the Company’s ownership exceeds 50 percent or where the Company has control. In addition, the Company consolidates any variable interest entities (“VIE’s”) (including the below-referenced CLO entity) for which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary. The Company provides for non-controlling and other beneficial interests in consolidated subsidiaries for which the Company’s ownership is less than 100 percent. All intercompany accounts and transactions between consolidated entities have been eliminated. The equity method of accounting is used for investments in non-controlled affiliates in which the Company’s ownership ranges from 20 to 50 percent, or in instances in which the Company is able to exercise significant influence but not control (such as representation on the investee’s Board of Directors).

The Company adopted the provisions of a new consolidation standard on November 1, 2010. In conjunction with the adoption, the Company concluded that it was the primary beneficiary of one of the CLO entities for which it acts as collateral manager and consolidated the assets, liabilities and results of operations of that entity in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on November 1, 2010. The assets of the CLO entity cannot be used by the Company, and the note holders of the entity have no recourse to the general credit or assets of the Company. In conjunction with the adoption, the Company recorded a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings of $1.7 million, representing an adjustment to the carrying value of the Company’s direct investment in the CLO entity, and a cumulative effect adjustment to appropriated earnings (deficit) of $30.7 million, equal to the difference between the fair value of the CLO’s assets and the fair value of its liabilities that can be attributed to external investors.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

From time to time, the Company may maintain a controlling financial interest in a sponsored fund. Upon consolidation, the Company assumes the specialized accounting treatment of the fund. All of the underlying investments held by consolidated funds are carried at fair value, with corresponding changes in fair value reflected in gains and other investment income in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. When the Company is no longer deemed to control the fund, the fund is deconsolidated and accounted for under another accounting method.

3. New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

Testing intangibles for impairment

In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) updated the indefinite-lived asset impairment testing guidance. Under the amended guidance, a reporting entity may elect to assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of the intangible asset is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the currently required quantitative fair value assessment. The new guidance is effective for the Company for the fiscal year that begins on November 1, 2012. The Company is still in the process of determining whether or not it will make this election. The adoption of this new guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Testing goodwill for impairment

In September 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to the existing goodwill impairment guidance. The terms of the amendment permit a reporting entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform step one of the two-step goodwill impairment test. The new guidance is effective for the Company for the fiscal year that begins on November 1, 2012. The Company is still in the process of determining whether or not it will make this election. The adoption of this new guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

4. Adoption of New Accounting Standards

The Company adopted the following accounting standard in fiscal 2012:

Fair value measurements

On February 1, 2012, the Company adopted new requirements for expanded fair value disclosures as issued by the FASB. The updated guidance modifies and clarifies existing fair value guidance and expands disclosure requirements. The expanded disclosures are included in Note 7.

5. Consolidated Sponsored Funds

The Company consolidates sponsored funds in which it holds a controlling financial interest. All investments held by consolidated sponsored funds were included in investments on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and classified as investment securities, trading, at July 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011. Net investment income related to these funds was included in gains and other investment income, net, on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income for all periods presented. Net investment income was partially offset by amounts attributable to non-controlling interest holders, which were recorded in net income attributable to non-controlling and other beneficial interest holders in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income for all periods presented.

The following table sets forth the balances related to consolidated sponsored funds that were included on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets at July 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 as well as the Company’s net interest in these funds:

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The investment is carried at amortized cost unless facts and circumstances indicate that the investment has been impaired, at which time the investment is written down to fair value. There was no re-measurement of this asset during the nine month period ended July 31, 2012 or the twelve month period ended October 31, 2011.

Valuation methodologies

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as well as the general classification of those assets and liabilities pursuant to the valuation hierarchy:

Cash equivalents

Cash equivalents consist of investments in money market funds and agency securities. Money market funds are valued using published net asset values and are classified as Level 1 within the valuation hierarchy. Agency securities are valued based upon quoted market prices for similar assets in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets that are not active, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or corroborated by observable market data. Depending on the nature of the inputs, these assets are generally classified as Level 1 or 2 within the valuation hierarchy.

Investment securities, trading

Investment securities, trading, consist of debt and equity securities held in the portfolios of consolidated sponsored funds and separately managed accounts. In certain instances, fair value is determined using unadjusted quoted market prices. If unadjusted quoted market prices are unavailable, fair value is determined using quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or corroborated by observable market data. If events occur after the close of the primary market, the quoted market prices may be adjusted for the observable price movements of country-specific market proxies. Depending upon the nature of the inputs, investment securities, trading are generally classified as Level 1 or 2 within the valuation hierarchy.

Investment securities, available-for-sale

Investment securities, available-for-sale, consist of investments in sponsored mutual funds and privately offered equity funds. Sponsored mutual funds that are listed on an active exchange are valued using published net asset values and are classified as Level 1 within the valuation hierarchy. Investments in sponsored privately offered equity funds and portfolios that are not listed on an active exchange but have net asset values that are comparable to mutual funds and have no redemption restrictions are classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy.

Derivative instruments

Derivative instruments, which include foreign exchange contracts, stock index futures contracts and commodity futures contracts, are recorded as either other assets or other liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Foreign exchange contracts are valued by interpolating a value using the spot foreign exchange rate and forward points, which are based on spot rate and currency interest rate differentials. Index futures contracts and commodity futures contracts are valued using a third-party pricing service that determines fair value based on bid and ask prices. Derivative instruments are generally classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Assets of consolidated CLO entity

Assets of the consolidated CLO entity include investments in money market funds, equity securities, debt securities, bank loans and warrants. Fair value is determined utilizing unadjusted quoted market prices when available. Fair value may also be based upon valuations obtained from independent third-party broker or dealers utilizing matrix pricing models that consider information regarding securities with similar characteristics. In certain instances, fair value has been determined utilizing discounted cash flow analyses or single broker non-binding quotes. Depending on the nature of the inputs, these assets are classified as Level 1, 2 or 3 within the valuation hierarchy.

Securities sold, not yet purchased

Securities sold, not yet purchased, are recorded as other liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and are valued by a third-party pricing service that determines fair value based on bid and ask prices. Securities sold, not yet purchased, are generally classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy.

Liabilities of consolidated CLO entity

Liabilities of the consolidated CLO entity include debt securities and senior and subordinated note obligations of the consolidated CLO entity. The liabilities are valued based upon quoted prices for identical or similar liabilities that are not active and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or corroborated by observable market data. Fair value may also be based upon model-based valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable in the market. Depending on the nature of the inputs, these liabilities are classified as Level 2 or 3 within the valuation hierarchy.

Transfers in and/or out of Levels

The following table summarizes fair value transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2012:

Valuation process

The Company elected the fair value option for both the collateral assets held and senior and subordinated notes issued by its consolidated CLO entity upon consolidation to mitigate any accounting inconsistencies between the carrying value of the assets held to provide cash flows for the note obligations and the carrying value of those note obligations.

Senior and subordinated note obligations issued by the Company’s consolidated CLO entity are issued in various tranches with different risk profiles. The notes are valued on a quarterly basis by the Company’s bank loan investment team utilizing an income approach that projects the cash flows of the collateral assets using the team’s assumptions about market yields, collateral reimbursement assumptions, prepayment speeds, forecasted default and recovery rates, callability and other market factors that vary based on the nature of the investments in the underlying collateral pool. Once the undiscounted cash flows of the collateral assets have been determined, the bank loan team applies appropriate discount rates that it believes a reasonable market participant would use to determine the discounted cash flow valuation of the notes. The bank loan team routinely monitors market conditions and model inputs for cyclical and secular changes in order to identify any material factors that could influence the Company’s valuation method.

Sensitivity to changes in significant unobservable inputs

For senior and subordinated notes issued by the Company’s consolidated CLO entity, a change in the assumption used for the probability of default is generally accompanied by a directionally similar change in the assumption used for discount rates. Significant increases in either of these inputs would result in a significantly lower measurement of fair value.

Although the Company believes the valuation methods described above are appropriate, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine fair value could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

8. Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivative financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges

During the nine months ended July 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company reclassified into interest expense $0.3 million of the loss recognized on a Treasury lock transaction in connection with the Company’s issuance of ten-year senior notes in October 2007. At July 31, 2012, the remaining unamortized loss on this transaction was $2.3 million. During the next twelve months, the Company expects to reclassify approximately $0.4 million of the loss on the Treasury lock transaction into interest expense.

Other derivative financial instruments not designated for hedge accounting

The Company has entered into a series of foreign exchange contracts, stock index futures contracts and commodity futures contracts to hedge currency risk and market risk associated with its investments in separately managed accounts and consolidated sponsored funds seeded for new product development purposes.

At July 31, 2012, the Company had 14 foreign exchange contracts outstanding with six counterparties with an aggregate notional value of $18.0 million; 13 types of stock index futures contracts outstanding with one counterparty with an aggregate notional value of $65.4 million; and 29 types of commodity futures contracts outstanding with one counterparty with an aggregate notional value of $15.9 million.

The following tables present the fair value of derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments as of July 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011:

9. Fair Value Measurements of Other Financial Instruments

Certain financial instruments are not carried at fair value. The following is a summary of the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of these financial instruments at July 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011:

(in thousands)		July 31, 2012												October 31, 2011

Notes receivable from stock option exercises		$	3,888			$	3,888				3			$	4,441			$	4,441
Debt		$	500,000			$	574,830				1			$	500,000			$	566,047

Included in investments, other is a $6.6 million non-controlling capital interest in Atlanta Capital Management Holdings, LLC (“ACM Holdings”), a partnership that owns certain non-controlling interests of Atlanta Capital Management LLC (“Atlanta Capital Management”). The Company’s interest in ACM Holdings is non-voting and entitles the Company to receive $6.6 million when put or call options for certain non-controlling interests of Atlanta Capital Management are exercised. The carrying value of these investments approximates fair value. The fair value of the investment is determined using a cash flow model which projects future cash flows based upon contractual obligations. Once the undiscounted cash flows have been determined, the Company applies an appropriate discount rate. The inputs to the model are considered Level 3.

Notes receivable from stock option exercises represent loans to employees under the Employee Loan Program for the purpose of financing the exercise of employee stock options. Loans are made for a seven-year period, at varying fixed interest rates, and are payable in annual installments. The fair value of the notes is determined using a cash flow model which projects cash flows based upon the contractual terms of the notes. Once the undiscounted cash flows have been determined, the Company applies an appropriate market yield. The inputs to the model are considered Level 3. The carrying value of the notes receivable approximates fair value.

The fair value of the Company’s debt has been determined using publicly available market prices, which are considered Level 1 inputs.

In the normal course of business, the Company maintains investments in sponsored CLO entities and privately offered equity funds that are considered VIEs. These variable interests generally represent seed investments made by the Company, as collateral manager or investment advisor, to launch or market these vehicles. The Company receives management fees for the services it provides as collateral manager or investment advisor to these entities. These fees may also be considered variable interests.

To determine whether or not the Company should be treated as the primary beneficiary of a VIE, management must make significant estimates and assumptions regarding probable future cash flows of the VIE. These estimates and assumptions relate primarily to market interest rates, credit default rates, pre-payment rates, discount rates, the marketability of certain securities and the probability of certain outcomes.

Investments in VIEs that are consolidated

Consolidated CLO entity

As described in Note 2, the Company adopted the provisions of a new consolidation standard on November 1, 2010 that resulted in the consolidation of a CLO entity.

The Company irrevocably elected the fair value option for all financial assets and liabilities of the consolidated CLO entity upon adoption of the new accounting guidance. Unrealized gains and losses on assets and liabilities for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. Although the subordinated note obligations of the CLO entity have certain equity characteristics, the Company has determined that the subordinated notes should be recorded as liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The assets of this CLO entity are held solely as collateral to satisfy the obligations of the entity. The Company has no right to the benefits from, nor does the Company bear the risks associated with, the assets held by the entity beyond the Company’s minimal direct investment and beneficial interest therein and management fees generated from the entity. The note holders of the CLO entity have no recourse to the Company’s general assets. There are neither explicit arrangements nor does the Company hold implicit variable interests that would require the Company to provide any ongoing financial support to the entity.

The following tables present, as of July 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, the fair value of the consolidated CLO entity’s assets and liabilities subject to fair value accounting:

October 31, 2011

(in thousands)		CLO Bank Loan Investments								Senior and subordinated note obligations
		Total CLO bank loan investments				90 days or more past due
Unpaid principal balance		$	474,515			$	1,192			$	500,066
Excess unpaid principal balance over fair value			(17,820	)			(617	)			(22,367	)
Fair value		$	456,695			$	575			$	477,699

During the three months ended July 31, 2012 and 2011, the changes in the fair values of the CLO entity’s bank loans and other investments resulted in net losses of $1.1 million and $2.7 million, respectively, while changes in the fair value of the CLO’s note obligations resulted in net gains of $8.5 million and net losses of $1.1 million, respectively. The combined net gains of $7.4 million and net losses of $3.8 million for the three months ended July 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, were recorded as gains (losses) and other investment income of the consolidated CLO entity on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income for these periods.

During the nine months ended July 31, 2012 and 2011, the changes in the fair values of the CLO entity’s bank loans and other investments resulted in net gains of $14.8 million and $10.8 million, respectively, while changes in the fair value of the CLO’s note obligations resulted in net gains of $0.6 million and net losses of $36.4 million, respectively. The combined net gains of $15.4 million and net losses of $25.5 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, were recorded as gains (losses) and other investment income of the consolidated CLO entity on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income for these periods.

Substantially all gains (losses) related to the CLO entity’s bank loans, other investments and note obligations recorded in earnings for the periods were attributable to changes in instrument-specific credit risk.

The CLO entity’s note obligations bear interest at variable rates based on LIBOR plus a pre-defined spread, which ranges from 0.21 percent to 1.50 percent. The principal amounts outstanding of the note obligations issued by the CLO entity mature on April 20, 2019. Subsequent to April 2012, reinvestment opportunities are limited and it is expected that prepayments received will be used to pay down the entity’s note obligations. The holders of a majority of the subordinated notes have the option to liquidate the CLO entity, provided there is sufficient value to repay the senior notes in full.

Interest income and expense are recorded on an accrual basis and reported as gains (losses) and other investment income and as interest expense in other income (expense) of the consolidated CLO entity on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2012.

At July 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, the following carrying amounts related to the consolidated CLO entity were included in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets:

For the three months ended July 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded net income of $8.4 million and a net loss of $2.6 million, respectively, related to the consolidated CLO entity. A net gain of $7.5 million and a net loss of $3.5 million for three months ended July 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, were included in net income attributable to non-controlling and other beneficial interests for those periods, reflecting the interests of third-party note holders of the consolidated CLO entity. Net income attributable to Eaton Vance Corp. shareholders included $0.9 million related to the consolidated CLO entity for both the three months ended July 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

For the nine months ended July 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded net income of $18.9 million and net losses of $19.5 million, respectively, related to the consolidated CLO entity.

Other Entities

The Company’s controlled subsidiary Parametric Portfolio Associates LLC (“Parametric Portfolio Associates”) maintains a 70 percent economic interest in Parametric Risk Advisors LLC (“Parametric Risk Advisors”), which meets the definition of a VIE. Consistent with its majority economic interest and other considerations, the Company has determined that Parametric Portfolio Associates is the primary beneficiary of the VIE.

Parametric Risk Advisors had assets of $4.9 million on both July 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, consisting primarily of cash and cash equivalents and investment advisory fees receivable, and liabilities of $2.3 million and $2.5 million on July 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, respectively, consisting primarily of accrued compensation, accounts payable, accrued expenses and intercompany payables. Neither the Company’s variable interest nor maximum risk of loss related to this VIE was material to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements at either balance sheet date.

11. Acquisitions

Tax Advantaged Bond Strategies (“TABS”)

In December 2008, the Company acquired the TABS business of M.D. Sass Investors Services for cash and future consideration. During the second quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company made a contingent payment of $12.3 million to the selling group based upon prescribed multiples of TABS’s revenue for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011. The payment increased goodwill by $12.3 million as the acquisition was completed prior to the change in accounting for contingent purchase price consideration. The Company will be obligated to make four additional annual contingent payments to the selling group based on prescribed multiples of TABS’s revenue for the twelve months ending December 31, 2012, 2014, 2015 and 2016. All future payments will be in cash and will result in an addition to goodwill. These payments are not contingent upon any member of the selling group remaining an employee of the Company.

Parametric Portfolio Associates

On April 27, 2012, the non-controlling interest holders of Parametric Portfolio Associates exercised a put option requiring the Company to purchase an additional interest in Parametric Portfolio Associates for
