### **Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

7RWKH%RDUGRI'LUHFWRUVDQG6KDUHKROGHURI 0DQQLQJ 1DSLHU,QYHVWRU6HUYLFHV,QF

### *Opinion on the Financial Statements*

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of Manning & Napier Investor Services, Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2022 and the related statements of operations, changes in shareholder's equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

### *Basis for Opinion*

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as, evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

### *Supplemental Information*

The accompanying Computation of Net Capital for Brokers and Dealers Pursuant to Rule 15c3-1 Under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Computation for Determination of Reserve Requirements and Information Relating to the Possession or Control Requirements Under Rule 15c3-3 as of December 31, 2022 (collectively, the "supplemental information") has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of the Company's financial statements. The supplemental information is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the supplemental information reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the

{5}------------------------------------------------

![](_page_5_Picture_0.jpeg)

information presented in the supplemental information. In forming our opinion on the supplemental information, we evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form and content, is presented in conformity with Rule 17a-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In our opinion, the supplemental information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

Fairport, NY February 28, 2023

We have served as the Company's auditor since 2007.

Our review was conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included inquiries and other required procedures to obtain evidence about the Company's compliance with the provisions of Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34- 70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5. A review is substantially less in scope than an examination, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion on management's assertions. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to management's assertions referred to above for them to be fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the provisions set forth in Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5.

### **Report of Independent Accountants**

To the Board of Directors of Manning & Napier Investor Services, Inc.

We have performed the procedures included in Rule 17a-5(e)(4) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and in the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC") Series 600 Rules, which are enumerated below, on the accompanying General Assessment Reconciliation (Form SIPC-7) of Manning & Napier Investor Services, Inc. (the "Company") for the year ended December 31, 2022. Management of Manning & Napier Investor Services, Inc. is responsible for its Form SIPC-7 and for its compliance with the applicable instructions on Form SIPC-7.

In an agreed-upon procedures engagement, we perform specific procedures that the Company has agreed to and acknowledged to be appropriate for the intended purpose of the engagement and we report on findings based on the procedures performed. Management of the Company has agreed to and acknowledged that the procedures performed are appropriate to meet the intended purpose of assisting you and SIPC in evaluating the Company's compliance with the applicable instructions on Form SIPC-7 for the year ended December 31, 2022. Additionally, SIPC has agreed to and acknowledged that the procedures performed are appropriate for their intended purpose. This report may not be suitable for any other purpose. The procedures performed may not address all the items of interest to a user of this report and may not meet the needs of all users of this report and, as such, users are responsible for determining whether the procedures performed are appropriate for their purposes. The sufficiency of these procedures is solely the responsibility of those parties specified in this report. Consequently, we make no representation regarding the sufficiency of the procedures described below either for the purpose for which this report has been requested or for any other purpose.

The procedures we performed and the associated findings are as follows:

- 1. Compared the listed assessment payments on page 1, items 2B and 2G of Form SIPC-7 with the respective cash disbursement records entries. No payments were made in 2022 as an overpayment was carried forward from the prior year.
- 2. Compared the Total Revenue amount reported on page 6 of the Annual Audited Report Form X-17A-5 Part III for the year ended December 31, 2022 to the Total revenue amount of \$8,308,034 reported on page 2, item 2a of Form SIPC-7 for the year ended December 31, 2021, noting no differences.
- 3. Compared any adjustments reported on page 2, items 2b and 2c of Form SIPC-7 with the supporting schedules and working papers, as follows:
	- a. No additions identified within item 2b.
	- b. Compared deductions on line 2c.(1), revenues from the distribution of shares of a registered open end investment company or unit investment trust, from the sale of variable annuities, from the business of insurance, from investment advisory services rendered to registered investment companies or insurance company separate accounts, and from transactions in security futures products, of \$8,090,896 to supporting schedules and working papers provided by Michelle O'Brien, Treasurer, noting no differences.

{22}------------------------------------------------

![](_page_22_Picture_0.jpeg)

- 4. Recalculated the arithmetical accuracy of the calculations reflected in Form SIPC-7 and in the related schedules and working papers obtained in procedure 3, as follows:
	- a. Recalculated the mathematical accuracy of the SIPC Net Operating Revenues on page 2, line 2d and the General Assessment @ .0015 on page 2, line 2e of \$217,138 and \$325.71, respectively of the Form SIPC-7, noting no differences.
- 5. Compared the amount of any overpayment applied to the current assessment on page 1, item 2C of Form SIPC-7 with page 1, item 2H of the Form SIPC-7 filed for the prior period ended December 31, 2021 on which it was originally computed, noting no differences.

We were engaged by the Company to perform this agreed-upon procedures engagement and conducted our engagement in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). We were not engaged to, and did not conduct an examination or review engagement, the objective of which would be the expression of an opinion or conclusion, respectively, on the Company's Form SIPC-7 and on its compliance with the applicable instructions on Form SIPC-7 for the year ended December 31, 2022.
