Highlight of Business Operations:
Investment advisory revenues earned from the Price funds are determined daily based on the net assets managed in each fund. The advisory fee paid monthly by each of the Price funds is computed on a daily basis by multiplying a funds net assets by a specific fee rate. For the majority of the Price funds, the fee rate is equal to the sum of a tiered group rate that is set based on the aggregate net assets of nearly all of the Price funds and an individual fund rate that is set based on the funds specific investment objective.Investment advisory revenues were up 15.9%, or $322.2 million, to $2.3 billion in 2011, as average assets under our management increased $74.5 billion to $497.1 billion. The average annualized fee rate earned on our assets under management was 47.3 basis points during 2011 compared to 48.0 basis points earned in 2010. The decrease in our average annualized fee rate is primarily a result of the $11.3 million increase in money market management fees voluntarily waived by the firm in order to maintain a positive yield for fund investors. The firm waived $36.4 million in money market fees in 2011 compared to $25.1 million in 2010. The firm expects that these fee waivers will continue in 2012.
Net revenues increased $499.8 million, or 26.8%, to nearly $2.4 billion. Operating expenses were $1.3 billion in 2010, an increase of $164.9 million, or 14.1%. This increase includes the $16.4 million charge related to the one-time contribution made to certain of our money market funds. Overall, net operating income for 2010 increased $334.9 million, or 47.7%, to more than $1.0 billion. The increase in our average assets under management and resulting advisory revenue increased our operating margin for 2010 to 43.8% from 37.6% for 2009. We recognized non-operating investment income of $33.5 million in 2010 compared to investment losses in 2009 of $12.7 million. The 2009 year included $36.1 million in other than temporary impairment charges recognized in the first quarter on our investments in sponsored mutual funds. Net income increased $238.6 million, or 55%, to $672.2 million from the 2009 period resulting in diluted earnings per share on our common stock to increase 53% to $2.53 from the $1.65 earned in 2009.
Our non-operating investment income activity resulted in a net gain of $33.5 million in 2010, compared to a net loss of $12.7 million in the 2009 period. This change of $46.2 million includes $36.1 million in other than temporary impairments recognized on our investments in sponsored mutual funds in 2009. The change also includes $1.3 million in more gains recognized in the 2010 period for the settlement and valuation of a series of non-deliverable forward contracts used to economically hedge the foreign currency exposure associated with the UTI acquisition price and $5.3 million in net earnings from our investment in UTI.
Our future revenues and results of operations will fluctuate primarily due to changes in the total value and composition of assets under our management. Such changes result from many factors including, among other things: cash inflows and outflows in the T. Rowe Price mutual funds and other managed investment portfolios; fluctuations in global financial markets that result in appreciation or depreciation of the assets under our management; our introduction of new mutual funds and investment portfolios; and changes in retirement savings trends relative to participant-directed investments and defined contribution plans. The ability to attract and retain investors assets under our management is dependent on investor sentiment and confidence; the relative investment performance of the Price mutual funds and other managed investment portfolios as compared to competing offerings and market indexes; the ability to maintain our investment management and administrative fees at appropriate levels; competitive conditions in the mutual fund, asset management, and broader financial services sectors; and our level of success in implementing our strategy to expand our business. Our revenues are substantially dependent on fees earned under contracts with the Price funds and
