Canaccord Genuity Capital Markets

Globally, Canaccord Genuity Capital Markets earned revenue of $212.3 million for the fourth fiscal quarter, broadly in-line with Q3/25 and a year-over-year improvement of 4.7%, primarily reflecting stronger advisory completions during the three-month period. Fiscal 2025 revenue in this division increased by 21.6% year-over-year to $830.7 million, reflecting stronger contributions from advisory, corporate financing and principal trading activities.  

Advisory revenue for the three-month period amounted to $89.8 million, a year-over-year increase of 30.4% and an increase of 28.3% sequentially, which reflects improving contributions from our US and UK businesses. Advisory revenue of $305.0 million for fiscal 2025 increased by 32.7% year-over-year and represents the third highest annual revenue on record for this business line.

Canaccord Genuity Capital Markets participated in 355 investment banking transactions globally, raising total proceeds of C$36.7 billion during fiscal 2025. Investment banking revenue for the fiscal year amounted to $215.3 million, an increase of 43.9% compared to the fiscal 2024. For Q4/25, revenue in this business line declined both sequentially and when compared to the same period a year ago largely due to lower revenue generated from our Australian operations compared to the exceptionally strong performances in the comparative periods.  

Commissions and fees revenue decreased by 2.8% year-over-year for the three-month period and by 5.7% for the fiscal year, primarily reflecting lower activity levels in our North American operations, partially offset by stronger contributions from the UK.  Principal trading revenue decreased by 1.9% year-over-year for Q4/25 but increased by 13.1% in fiscal 2025. Interest revenue decreased by 19.5% and 7.6% respectively, for the three- and twelve- month periods ended March 31, 2025 due to reduced stock borrowing activity in our Canadian operations.

Excluding significant items(1), our global capital markets division recorded net income before taxes of $1.0 million for the quarter, a decrease of 69.3% compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 as the increase in revenue was offset by higher interest expense and professional fees.  Net income excluding significant items(1) for fiscal 2025 was $43.8 million for fiscal 2025 compared to net income before tax of $6.0 million in the prior fiscal year.

Summary of Corporate Developments

On February 4, 2025, the board of directors formally appointed Nadine Ahn as the Company's Chief Financial Officer, effective February 5, 2025.

On February 24, 2025, the Company, through CGWM UK, completed its acquisition of Brooks Macdonald Asset Management (International) Ltd. ("BMI"), previously a wholly owned subsidiary of Brooks Macdonald Group.

Subsequent to year-end of the fiscal fourth quarter, on April 1, 2025, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement to sell its U.S. wholesale market making business to Cantor, further strengthening its focus on its core global advisory and ECM-led investment banking platform. Completion of the sale is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to occur in the first half of the Company's 2026 fiscal year.

Prior to the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026,  subsidiaries of the Company ("CG Group") are expected to loan certain executive officers, senior managers and senior revenue producing employees (the "Participants") the aggregate principal amount of up to approximately $27.0 million pursuant to new purchase loans ("2026 Purchase Loans") for the purpose of subscribing for limited partnership units ("LP Units") in CG Partners Limited Partnership, the employee share ownership partnership (the "Partnership").  In connection therewith, prior to the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company expects to advance the Partnership a short-term interest-bearing secured loan in an amount up to the aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Purchase Loans and related Participants' Partnership contributions ("New Partnership Loan"). The Partnership will be required to repay the New Partnership Loan using the cash proceeds that it receives from the Participants' subscription for LP Units.  For more information, see the Company's annual management's discussion & analysis (MD&A) dated June 4, 2025.

The following is a description of the composition of the non-IFRS measures used in this earnings release (note that some significant items excluded may not be applicable to the calculation of the non-IFRS measure for each comparative period): (i) revenue excluding significant items, which is revenue per IFRS excluding any applicable fair value adjustments on certain illiquid or restricted marketable securities, warrants and options as recorded for IFRS reporting purposes but which are excluded for management reporting purposes and are not used by management to assess operating performance; (ii) expenses excluding significant items are expenses per IFRS less any applicable amortization of intangible assets acquired in connection with a business combination, acquisition-related expense items, which includes costs recognized in relation to both prospective and completed acquisitions, restructuring expenses, certain incentive-based costs related to the acquisitions and growth initiatives of Canaccord Genuity Wealth Management in the UK and Crown Dependencies ("CGWM UK") and the US and UK capital markets divisions, certain costs included in Corporate and Other development costs related to the expired management-led takeover bid for the common shares of the Company, fair value adjustment of certain contingent consideration in connection with prior acquisitions,  fair value adjustments to the derivative liability component of non-controlling interests in CGWM UK, fair value adjustments to the derivative liability component related to the convertible debentures; certain expenses related to leased premises under construction, a fair value adjustment in respect of the CGWM UK management incentive plan;  certain provisions and professional fees related to the ongoing US regulatory matters; and certain provision in connection with a tax matter related to previous fiscal years (iii) overhead expenses excluding significant items, which are calculated as expenses excluding significant items less compensation expense; (iv) net income before taxes after intersegment allocations and excluding significant items, which is composed of revenue excluding significant items less expenses excluding significant items; (v) income taxes (adjusted), which is composed of income taxes per IFRS adjusted to reflect the associated tax effect of the excluded significant items; (vi) net income excluding significant items, which is net income before income taxes excluding significant items less income taxes (adjusted); (vii) non-controlling interests (adjusted), which is composed of the non-controlling interests per IFRS less the amortization of the equity component of the non-controlling interests in CGWM UK and adjusted as applicable under the treasury stock method when dilutive; (viii) net income attributable to common shareholders excluding significant items, which is net income excluding significant items less non-controlling interests (adjusted) and preferred share dividends paid on the Series A and Series C Preferred Shares.  Other non-IFRS measures include earnings before income taxes, interest, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), which is net income before taxes excluding significant items and also excludes certain corporate interest revenue and corporate interest expense, depreciation and amortization and normalized EBITDA which is EBITDA excluding certain expenses of a specialized or non-recurring nature.  EBITDA does not exclude right of use assets amortization and lease interest expense. The respective figures as described in this paragraph for the Company's operating divisions are determined as described herein and are non-IFRS measures.

A reconciliation of non-IFRS measures that exclude significant items to the applicable IFRS measures from the consolidated financial statements for fiscal 2025 can be found in the above table titled "Summary of Results for Q4 and Fiscal 2025 and Selected Financial Information Excluding Significant Items".

Non-IFRS Ratios

Non-IFRS ratios are calculated using the non-IFRS measures defined above. For the periods presented herein, we have used the following non-IFRS ratios: (i) total expenses excluding significant items as a percentage of revenue which is calculated by dividing expenses excluding significant items by revenue excluding significant items; (ii) earnings per common share excluding significant items which is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders excluding significant items by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (basic);  (iii) diluted earnings per common share excluding significant items which is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders excluding significant items by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (diluted); and (iv) pre-tax profit margin which is calculated by dividing net income before taxes excluding significant items by revenue excluding significant items.

Supplementary Financial Measures

Client assets are supplementary financial measures that do not have any definitions prescribed under IFRS and do not meet the definition of a non-IFRS measure or non-IFRS ratio. Client assets, which include both Assets under Management (AUM) and Assets under Administration (AUA), is a measure that is common to the wealth management business. Client assets is the market value of client assets managed and administered by the Company from which the Company earns interest, commissions and fees. This measure includes funds held in client accounts as well as the aggregate market value of long and short security positions. The Company's method of calculating client assets may differ from the methods used by other companies and therefore these measures may not be comparable to other companies. Management uses these measures to assess operational performance of the Canaccord Genuity Wealth Management business segment.
