Previous Earnings Reports
| Date | Event | Sentiment | Move | Catalyst |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nov 05 | Q3 2025 earnings | Positive | +2.5% | Strong AUM growth, higher management fees, net income and adjusted EBITDA. |
| Aug 06 | Q2 2025 earnings | Positive | -1.3% | Robust AUM, higher fees and net income driven by metals and uranium. |
| May 07 | Q1 2025 earnings | Positive | +0.9% | AUM growth with higher management fees and adjusted EBITDA on inflows. |
| Nov 06 | Q3 2024 earnings | Positive | -5.1% | Record AUM and sharply higher net income and fees in Q3 2024. |
| Aug 07 | Q2 2024 earnings | Neutral | -2.3% | Higher AUM and fees offset by lower net income versus prior year. |
Earnings releases have produced mixed share reactions: 3 aligned with the fundamental tone and 2 divergent, with occasional selloffs even on strong results.
Over the past five earnings cycles, Sprott has consistently reported rising AUM and generally strong financial performance, with AUM growing from $31.1B in Q2 2024 to $49.1B in Q3 2025 and further to $59.6B by year-end 2025. Management fees, net income and adjusted EBITDA have trended higher alongside expansion in precious metals and critical materials products. Today’s Q1 2026 results continue this trajectory with higher AUM, stronger fee generation and robust adjusted EBITDA, against a backdrop of previously mixed stock reactions to earnings.
Historical Comparison
In the past five earnings releases, SII moved an average of -1.06% on day one, with both rallies and selloffs after strong results, suggesting that today’s post-earnings move fits a historically volatile reaction pattern.
Earnings updates show a steady AUM build from the low $30B range in 2024 to nearly $60B by late 2025, driven by precious metals and critical materials strategies, with recurring dividends alongside rising management fees and adjusted EBITDA.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement highlights a materially stronger quarter for Sprott, with AUM reaching $65.1B, management fees rising to $81.5M and adjusted EBITDA of $57.9M. Growth was driven by exchange-listed products and carried interest crystallization, partly offset by sharply higher stock-based compensation. Historically, earnings releases have produced mixed share reactions despite generally positive fundamentals. Investors may focus on sustainability of performance fees, AUM growth in critical materials strategies, and trends in compensation intensity over coming quarters.

This press release includes financial terms (including AUM, net commissions, net fees, expenses, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and net compensation) that the Company utilizes to assess the financial performance of its business that are not measures recognized under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). These non-IFRS measures should not be considered alternatives to performance measures determined in accordance with IFRS and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Non-IFRS financial measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Our key performance indicators and non-IFRS and other financial measures are discussed below. For quantitative reconciliations of non-IFRS financial measures to their most directly comparable IFRS financial measures please see schedule 2 and schedule 3 of the "Supplemental financial information" section of this press release.
Net fees
Net fees are calculated as: (1) total management fees net of fund expenses and direct payouts; and (2) carried interest and performance fees, net of their related payouts. Net fees is a key revenue indicator as it represents revenue contributions after directly associated costs in managing our AUM.
Net commissions
Net commissions are calculated as total commissions, net of commission expenses. Net commissions primarily arise from the purchase and sale of critical materials in our exchange listed products segment.
Net revenues
Net revenues are calculated as the total of: (1) net fees, excluding carried interest and performance fees, net of their related payouts; (2) net commissions; (3) finance income; and (4) co-investment income.
Net compensation & net compensation ratio
Net compensation is calculated as total compensation expense before: (1) commission expenses paid to employees; (2) direct payouts to employees; (3) carried interest and performance fee payouts to employees; (4) severance and new hire accruals; and (5) impact of market value fluctuations and graded vesting amortization on cash-settled equity plans. Net compensation ratio is calculated as net compensation divided by net revenues.
EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin
EBITDA in its most basic form is defined as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA (or adjustments thereto) is a measure commonly used in the investment industry by management, investors and investment analysts in understanding and comparing results by factoring out the impact of different financing methods, capital structures, amortization techniques and income tax rates between companies in the same industry. While other companies, investors or investment analysts may not utilize the same method of calculating EBITDA (or adjustments thereto), the Company believes its adjusted EBITDA metric results in a better comparison of the Company's underlying operations against its peers and a better indicator of recurring results from operations as compared to other non-IFRS financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA margin is a key indicator of a company’s profitability on a per dollar of revenue basis, and as such, is commonly used in the financial services sector by analysts, investors and management.
