SAN ANTONIO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Victory Capital Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: VCTR) (“Victory Capital” or “the Company”) today reported record financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

“The second quarter marked a key milestone with the successful closing of our strategic partnership with Amundi and the acquisition of Pioneer Investments, our newest Investment Franchise” said David Brown, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Integration activities are progressing as planned, and by the end of June, we had achieved approximately $70 million of the expected $110 million in net expense synergies.

“Our business performance was also strong in the quarter. Gross sales increased to $15.4 billion and our long-term net flows continued to improve for the third consecutive quarter. Long-term net outflows were just 23 basis points of AUM or less than 1% on an annualized basis. Our expanded intermediary sales team continues to ramp up, and we are investing in our non-US sales efforts as well.

“Firmwide investment performance remains strong. Through the end of June, the percentage of our AUM outperforming benchmarks over the respective 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods was 58%, 67%, and 73%. In addition, 64% of our AUM in mutual funds and ETFs was rated four or five stars overall by Morningstar.

“Our financial condition continues to strengthen, and the Board increased our current share repurchase authorization to $500 million. During the quarter, we repurchased 439,000 shares and, together with cash dividends, returned approximately $71 million of capital to shareholders. At quarter end, our net debt to leverage ratio improved to 1.2x marking our lowest level since becoming a public company.

“As always, we continue to focus on serving our clients, which is our top priority.”

The table below presents AUM, and certain GAAP and non-GAAP (“adjusted”) financial results. Due to rounding, AUM values and other amounts in this press release may not add up precisely to the totals provided.

Second Quarter 2025 Compared with First Quarter 2025

On April 1, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of Amundi US and reintroduced the brand Pioneer Investments ("Pioneer" or "Pioneer Investments") for the acquired business and investment products. Sequential results reflect the acquisition. The acquisition positively impacted our financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2025 when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. Revenue increased 59.9% to $351.2 million in the second quarter, compared with $219.6 million in the first quarter, primarily due to higher average AUM over the comparable period.

GAAP operating margin contracted 1,550 basis points in the second quarter to 26.8%, down from 42.3% in the first quarter, due to higher variable operating expenses as a result of the higher average AUM, a $17.0 million increase in acquisition-related costs and a $12.8 million increase in restructuring and integration costs related to the acquisition of Amundi US. Second quarter GAAP net income decreased 5.2% to $58.7 million, down from $62.0 million in the prior quarter.

Second Quarter 2025 Compared with Second Quarter 2024

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025, increased 59.9% to $351.2 million, compared with $219.6 million in the same quarter of 2024 as a result of higher average AUM over the comparable period.

Operating expenses were $257.0 million compared with $109.0 million in last year’s second quarter reflecting variable operating expenses that rose as a result of the higher average AUM and expanded business and higher acquisition-related costs and restructuring and integration costs related to the acquisition of Amundi US. GAAP operating margin contracted 2,360 basis points to 26.8% in the second quarter, from 50.4% in the same quarter of 2024.

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025, increased 31.1% to $570.8 million, compared with $435.5 million in the same period of 2024 as a result of higher average AUM over the comparable period.

GAAP operating margin contracted 1210 basis points, in the six months ended June 30, 2025 to 32.8%, down from 44.9% in the same period of 2024, due to higher variable operating expenses as a result of the higher average AUM, a $30.5 million increase in acquisition-related costs and a $14.6 million increase in restructuring and integration costs related to the acquisition of Amundi US. Six months ended June 30, 2025 GAAP net income decreased 7.1% to $120.7 million, down from $129.9 million in the prior period.

Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Victory Capital uses non-GAAP financial measures referred to as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income to measure the operating profitability of the Company. These measures eliminate the impact of one-time acquisition, restructuring and integration costs and demonstrate the ongoing operating earnings metrics of the Company. The Company has included these non-GAAP measures to provide investors with the same financial metrics used by management to assess the operating performance of the Company.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjustments made to GAAP Net Income to calculate Adjusted EBITDA, as applicable, are:

  • Adding back income tax expense;
  • Adding back interest paid on debt and other financing costs, net of interest income;
  • Adding back depreciation on property and equipment;
  • Adding back other business taxes;
  • Adding back amortization expense on acquisition-related intangible assets;
  • Adding back stock-based compensation expense associated with equity awards issued from pools created in connection with the management-led buyout and various acquisitions and as a result of equity grants related to the IPO;
  • Adding back direct incremental costs of acquisitions, including restructuring costs;
  • Adding back debt issuance cost expense;
  • Adjusting for earnings/losses on equity method investments.

Adjusted Net Income

Adjustments made to GAAP Net Income to calculate Adjusted Net Income, as applicable, are:

  • Adding back other business taxes;
  • Adding back amortization expense on acquisition-related intangible assets;
  • Adding back stock-based compensation expense associated with equity awards issued from pools created in connection with the management-led buyout and various acquisitions and as a result of any equity grants related to the IPO;
  • Adding back direct incremental costs of acquisitions, including restructuring costs;
  • Adding back debt issuance cost expense;
  • Subtracting an estimate of income tax expense applied to the sum of the adjustments above.

Tax Benefit of Goodwill and Acquired Intangible Assets

Due to Victory Capital’s acquisitive nature, tax deductions allowed on acquired intangible assets and goodwill provide it with additional significant supplemental economic benefit. The tax benefit of goodwill and intangible assets represent the tax benefits associated with deductions allowed for intangible assets and goodwill generated from prior acquisitions in which the Company received a step-up in basis for tax purposes. Acquired intangible assets and goodwill may be amortized for tax purposes, generally over a 15-year period. The tax benefit from amortization on these assets is included to show the full economic benefit of deductions for all acquired intangible assets with a step-up in tax basis.
