We expect this pullback to be short-lived. Any moderation in rate-hike expectations, renewed liquidity support from policymakers, or a sustained recovery in sovereign-related gold purchases could each serve as important catalysts for a rebound. As a result, we see the potential for gold’s cyclical trend to realign with its longer-term secular uptrend in the quarters ahead.”“Our critical materials strategies performed better and delivered positive net sales during the period,” continued Mr. George. “We remain constructive on the sector as the growing emphasis on energy security, grid reliability and rising electricity demand continues to reinforce the long-term investment case for critical materials, while supply constraints in many key materials provide additional support for prices and related equities.”Get the latest headlines, breaking news and columns.By signing up you consent to receive the above newsletter from Postmedia Network Inc.A welcome email is on its way.

On a three and six months ended basis, our AUM was negatively impacted by market value depreciation and net outflows from our precious metals products, partially offset by positive net inflows to our critical materials products. Average AUM was $63.9 billion for the quarter, up $26.3 billion or 70% from $37.6 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, and $66.6 billion on a year-to-date basis, up $31.2 billion or 88% from $35.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025. On a three and six months ended basis, our average AUM was positively impacted by a combination of net inflows and market value appreciation across a majority of our fund products since the second quarter of last year, which more than offset the impact of the June pullback in precious metals valuations.Management fees were $76.4 million for the quarter, up $31.9 million, or 72% from $44.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, and $157.9 million on a year-to-date basis, up $73.5 million, or 87% from $84.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Carried interest and performance fees were $nil for the quarter, down $14.8 million from $14.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, and $52 million on a year-to-date basis, up $37.2 million from $14.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Net fees were $69.3 million for the quarter, up $15.7 million, or 29% from $53.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, and $163 million on a year-to-date basis, up $73.6 million, or 82% from $89.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Our revenue performance in the quarter and on a six months ended basis was primarily due to an increase in average AUM attributable to a combination of net inflows and market value appreciation across a majority of our fund products since the second quarter of last year, which more than offset the impact of the June pullback in precious metals valuations. Additionally, we benefited from carried interest crystallization in our private strategies segment in the first quarter.This advertisement has not loaded yet.This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.Commission revenues were $1.5 million for the quarter, down $0.3 million from $1.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 and $7.3 million on a year-to-date basis, up $5.3 million from $2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Net commissions were $0.7 million for the quarter, down slightly from $0.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 and $3.7 million on a year-to-date basis, up $2.7 million from $1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in the quarter was due to lower private placement activity in our U.S. broker-dealer and the increase on a six months ended basis was due to higher ATM activity predominantly within our physical uranium trust, and to a lesser degree, in our physical copper trust.Finance income was $1.6 million for the quarter, up $0.4 million or 35% from $1.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 and $4.1 million on a year-to-date basis, up $1.5 million or 57% from $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in the quarter and on a six months ended basis was primarily due to increased interest income on higher cash balances.Net compensation expense was $22.7 million for the quarter, up $4.8 million or 27% from $17.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 and $46.4 million on a year-to-date basis, up $11.1 million or 31% from $35.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in the quarter and on a six months ended basis was primarily due to higher incentive compensation on increased net fee generation. Our net compensation ratio was 32% in the quarter (June 30, 2025 – 43%) and 30% on a year-to-date basis (June 30, 2025 – 45%). Stock-based compensation expense was $5 million for the quarter, down $13.6 million or 73% from $18.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 and $39.7 million on a year-to-date basis, up $14.9 million or 60% from $24.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in the quarter was due to the Company’s stock price depreciating 21% over the last three months, while the increase on a six months ended basis was due to our stock price appreciating 15% over the six month period. The Company issued 279,851 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) this year, down 71% from 976,550 RSUs in 2025.SG&A expense was $5.1 million for the quarter, up $0.3 million or 6% from $4.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 and $11 million on a year-to-date basis, up $2 million or 22% from $9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in the quarter and on a six months ended basis was due to higher marketing and professional services costs.1 See “non-IFRS financial measures” section in this press release and schedule 2 and 3 of “Supplemental financial information”Net income for the quarter was $34.3 million ($1.33 per share), up $20.8 million from $13.5 million ($0.52 per share) for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 and $63.5 million ($2.46 per share) on a year-to-date basis, up $38 million from $25.5 million ($0.99 per share) for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Our net income performance was primarily due to higher average AUM in our exchange listed products and managed equities segments, as well as carried interest crystallization in our private strategies segment in the first quarter. On a six months ended basis, these increases were partially offset by higher stock-based compensation expense as a result of the Company’s stock price appreciating 15% over the six month period.Adjusted EBITDA was $50.8 million ($1.97 per share) for the quarter, up $25.3 million, from $25.5 million ($0.99 per share) for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 and $108.7 million ($4.22 per share) on a year-to-date basis, up $61.3 million from $47.4 million ($1.83 per share) for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Our Adjusted EBITDA doubled in the quarter and on a six months ended basis due to an increase in average AUM, attributable to a combination of net inflows and market value appreciation across a majority of our fund products since the second quarter of last year, which more than offset the impact of the June pullback in precious metals valuations.Subsequent to quarter-end, as at July 31, 2026, AUM was $55.3 billion, down slightly from $55.6 billion as at June 30, 2026.On August 4, 2026, the Sprott Board of Directors announced a quarterly dividend of $0.40 per share.Supplemental financial informationPlease refer to the June 30, 2026 quarterly financial statements of the Company and the related management discussion and analysis filed earlier this morning for further details into the Company’s financial position as at June 30, 2026 and the Company’s financial performance for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.Schedule 1 – AUM continuity3 months results (In millions $)AUMMar. 31, 2026Netinflows (1)MarketvaluechangesOthernet inflows (1)AUMJun. 30, 2026 Netmanagementfee rate (2) Exchange listed products – Precious metals physical trusts and ETFs – Physical Gold Trust17,275(76)(2,450)—14,749 0.35%– Physical Silver Trust16,345(96)(3,607)—12,642 0.45%– Physical Gold and Silver Trust9,362(466)(1,564)—7,332 0.40%– Precious Metals ETFs1,824(90)(261)—1,473 0.40%– Physical Platinum & Palladium Trust722(39)(140)—543 0.50% 45,528(767)(8,022)—36,739 0.40% – Critical materials physical trusts and ETFs – Physical Uranium Trust6,844141 59 —7,044 0.31%– Critical Materials ETFs4,184318 (542)—3,960 0.56%– Physical Copper Trust1807 16 —203 0.33% 11,208466 (467)—11,207 0.41% Total exchange listed products56,736(301)(8,489)—47,946 0.40% Managed equities (3)6,332(69)(644)—5,619 0.80% Private strategies2,003(7)1 —1,997 0.78% Total AUM65,071(377)(9,132)—55,562 0.45% 6 months results (In millions $)AUMDec. 31, 2025Netinflows (1)MarketvaluechangesOthernet inflows (1)AUMJun. 30, 2026 Netmanagementfee rate (2) Exchange listed products – Precious metals physical trusts and ETFs – Physical Gold Trust15,976(86)(1,141)—14,749 0.35%– Physical Silver Trust15,109491 (2,958)—12,642 0.45%– Physical Gold and Silver Trust9,065(800)(933)—7,332 0.40%– Precious Metals ETFs1,65428 (209)—1,473 0.40%– Physical Platinum & Palladium Trust773(39)(191)—543 0.50% 42,577(406)(5,432)—36,739 0.40% – Critical materials physical trusts and ETFs – Physical Uranium Trust6,158703 183 —7,044 0.31%– Critical Materials ETFs2,9501,336 (326)—3,960 0.56%– Physical Copper Trust13164 8 —203 0.33% 9,2392,103 (135)—11,207 0.41% Total exchange listed products51,8161,697 (5,567)—47,946 0.40% Managed equities (3)5,656(175)138 —5,619 0.80% Private strategies2,134(185)48 —1,997 0.78% Total AUM59,6061,337 (5,381)—55,562 0.45% (1) See “Net inflows” and “Other net inflows” in the key performance indicators and non-IFRS and other financial measures section of the MD&A.

Conference Call and WebcastA webcast will be held today, August 5, 2026 at 10:00 am ET to discuss the Company’s financial results.Date: August 5, 2026Time: 10:00am ETWebcast: Webcast RegistrationThis 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 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 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 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 ratioNet 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 stock price changes 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 marginEBITDA 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.Forward-Looking StatementsCertain statements in this press release contain forward-looking information and forward-looking statements (collectively referred to herein as the “Forward-Looking Statements”) within the meaning of applicable Canadian and U.S. securities laws.
