Teton Advisors, Inc. is an investment advisory firm specializing in small, mid and micro-cap active value investing. The company operates through two registered investment advisor subsidiaries, managing eight mutual funds under the TETON, TETON Westwood, and KEELEY brands, along with separately managed accounts. For Q2 2023, total revenues decreased 14.7% to $2.96 million compared to $3.47 million in Q2 2022, primarily due to lower assets under management. AUM declined to $1.44 billion at quarter-end from $1.56 billion a year earlier, reflecting market conditions and net outflows. Investment advisory fees fell 22.2% due to reduced average AUM across both mutual funds and separate accounts. The company maintained profitability with net income of $183,295 or $0.11 per share, though down from $250,525 or $0.20 per share in the prior year. Operating expenses decreased across most categories, with compensation costs declining 12.0% and sub-advisory fees falling 27.6%, helping to partially offset revenue pressures.
