•
|
$66.4 million
increase
in the Wealth Management segment’s operating expenses due to the timing of the HD Vest acquisition.
|
•
|
$4.0 million
increase
in the Tax Preparation segment’s operating expenses, primarily due to higher spending on marketing campaigns for the current tax season, higher personnel expenses resulting from increased headcount, higher third-party costs associated with additional features in the current year offerings, and higher data center costs related to professional services and software support and maintenance fees.
|
•
|
$7.2 million
increase
in corporate-level expense activity, primarily due to higher amortization expense related to HD Vest acquisition-related intangible assets, higher stock-based compensation mainly related to an increase in stock award grants, higher depreciation expense mainly related to HD Vest fixed assets, and higher professional services fees, offset by lower amortization expense associated with concluding the useful life of certain TaxAct acquisition-related intangible assets during 2016.

Commission revenue -
Commissions represent amounts generated by HD Vest's financial advisors for their clients' purchases and sales of securities and various investment products. We generate two types of commissions: transaction-based sales commissions that occur at the point of sale, as well as trailing commissions for which we provide ongoing account support to clients of our financial advisors.

|
Advisory revenue -
Advisory revenue includes fees charged to clients in advisory accounts where HD Vest is the RIA. These fees are based on the value of assets within these advisory accounts. A substantial portion of these advisory fees are paid to the related financial advisor and these payments are classified as "Wealth management services cost of revenue" in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

|
Asset-based revenue -
Asset-based revenue primarily includes fees from financial product manufacturer sponsorship programs and cash sweep programs and are recognized ratably over the period in which services are provided.
|
•
|
Transaction and fee revenue -
We charge fees for executing certain transactions in client accounts. Transaction-related charges are recognized on a trade-date basis. Other fees relate to services provided and other account charges as generally outlined in agreements with financial advisors, clients, and financial institutions. Such fees are recognized as services are performed or as earned, as applicable.
