General and administrative expenses were $38 million, down $2 million from last quarter, and up $6 million from last year's fiscal 4Q. The sequential decline was primarily due to timing of client events, marketing, and travel-related expenses.

May 20, 2026 / receipt, needs a key / David Park, CFO | earnings call 2026-05-20 | transcript c39f729e-025b-474b-bd02-436340f0d833 | chars 17256-17499 | segment 17

The sequential increase was driven by higher travel, IT, and other general operating expenses. As a reminder, the G&A of our next two quarters tends to be seasonally elevated, driven by our StepStone 360 Conference in October and our Venture Capital Conference in February.

As a reminder, our G&A expenses tend to be seasonally highest in our fiscal third and fourth quarters due to these annual investor conferences.

G&A will vary quarter to quarter, largely driven by travel and events.

G&A expenses. We're also particularly travel as our teams are out there supporting existing clients and developing new relationships.

But certainly over the last you know, 12, 18 months as the world has reopened. We've been spending quite a bit of time on the road, around the world, and, you know, seeing various different pockets of interest, whether in, you know, Asia, Middle East, Latin America, et cetera.

Late last month, we hosted the StepStone 360 Conference in New York, our annual investor conference. We were thrilled to host the event live after holding it virtually the prior two years. Our clients were enthusiastic to return to our conference in person, with attendance up 30% from pre-COVID levels and with roughly half the attendees traveling from outside the U.S.

Shifting to expenses, compensation was down nominally versus the prior quarter, as we saw some adjustments to bonus accruals, while G&A increased at a modest pace given incremental travel costs and professional fees.

We have also seen sequential increases in travel and marketing driving increases in our G&A expense.

Additionally, we expect a higher level of T&E as we move through the coming year. T&E expense, while trending higher, still remains at levels below what we would consider normal.

But yes, now beginning to travel a bit more internationally or even on the domestic front, again, with 21 offices around the world, I feel like we are well positioned, even if travel is only taking place on a domestic basis.

Fee-related earnings growth has been driven by higher fee earning AUM, lower travel and entertainment expenses, and positive operating leverage.
