Insights

Financial Analyst

Record-breaking Q3 performance shows robust growth with $1.3 billion in distributable earnings before realizations, up 19% year-over-year. Fee-related earnings grew 14%, driven by impressive $539 billion in fee-bearing capital. The wealth solutions segment doubled earnings, benefiting from American Equity Life acquisition and strong annuity sales.

Notable achievements include $17 billion in asset monetizations and $20 billion in new investments. The company maintains significant financial flexibility with $150 billion in deployable capital. The 4% growth in same-store NOI from core real estate and 10% higher lease rates demonstrate strong operational performance.

Share repurchases of $1 billion over the last twelve months reflect management's confidence in the company's valuation and future prospects.

Insurance Analyst

The insurance segment shows remarkable momentum with assets exceeding $115 billion and $4.5 billion in organic inflows during Q3. The 5.4% investment portfolio yield, outperforming the cost of capital by 1.8%, demonstrates strong asset management capabilities. The expansion into UK pension liabilities through a $1.4 billion reinsurance agreement marks strategic geographic diversification.

The projected earnings growth from $1.5 billion to $2 billion in the near term indicates significant upside potential as the investment portfolio continues to be optimized. The $2 billion monthly retail capital raise shows strong distribution capabilities.

Our operating businesses continue to deliver growing cash flows, backed by the resilient earnings of our renewable power and transition, infrastructure and private equity businesses and 4% growth in same-store net operating income (“NOI”) from our core real estate portfolio over the prior year quarter.

During the quarter and over the LTM, earnings from realizations were $66 million and $1.4 billion, with total DE for the quarter and the LTM of $1.3 billion ($0.84/share) and $6.0 billion ($3.78/share), respectively.

• DE was $694 million ($0.44/share) in the quarter and $2.6 billion ($1.64/share) over the LTM.

• Fee-related earnings increased by 14% compared to the prior year quarter, driven by a 23% increase in fee-bearing capital over the LTM to $539 billion as at September 30, 2024. Inflows were $21 billion in the quarter and $135 billion for the LTM.

• During the quarter, we closed on the previously announced strategic partnership with Castlelake, a global alternative investment manager specializing in asset-based private credit including aviation and specialty finance.

• The average investment portfolio yield on our insurance assets was 5.4%, 1.8% higher than our average cost of capital. As we continue to reposition the investment portfolio, annualized earnings for the business are poised to grow from approximately $1.5 billion today to $2 billion in the near term.

• Today, a subsidiary of Brookfield Wealth Solutions announced an agreement to reinsure $1.4 billion of U.K. pension liabilities. This is our first transaction outside of North America, as we continue to look to diversify and expand our wealth solutions business.

Operating Businesses:

• DE was $356 million ($0.23/share) in the quarter and $1.5 billion ($0.93/share) over the LTM.

Earnings from the monetization of mature assets were $66 million ($0.04/share) for the quarter and $1.4 billion ($0.88/share) for the LTM.

All of these are expected to generate attractive returns.

• Total accumulated unrealized carried interest was $11.5 billion at quarter end, representing an increase of 17% over the LTM, net of carried interest realized into income. We recognized $295 million of net realized carried interest into income so far this year.

Non-IFRS and Performance Measures

This news release and accompanying financial information are based on International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), unless otherwise noted.

We make reference to Distributable Earnings (“DE”). We define DE as the sum of distributable earnings from our asset management business, distributable operating earnings from our wealth solutions business, distributions received from our ownership of investments, realized carried interest and disposition gains from principal investments, net of earnings from our Corporate Activities, preferred share dividends and equity-based compensation costs. We also make reference to DE before realizations, which refers to DE before realized carried interest and realized disposition gains from principal investments. We believe these measures provide insight into earnings received by the company that are available for distribution to common shareholders or to be reinvested into the business.

Realized carried interest and realized disposition gains are further described below:

• Realized Carried Interest represents our contractual share of investment gains generated within a private fund after considering our clients’ minimum return requirements. Realized carried interest is determined on third-party capital that is no longer subject to future investment performance.

• Realized Disposition Gains from principal investments are included in DE because we consider the purchase and sale of assets from our directly held investments to be a normal part of the company’s business. Realized disposition gains include gains and losses recorded in net income and equity in the current period, and are adjusted to include fair value changes and revaluation surplus balances recorded in prior periods which were not included in prior period DE.

We use DE to assess our operating results and the value of Brookfield Corporation’s business and believe that many shareholders and analysts also find these measures of value to them.

We make reference to Operating Funds from Operations (“Operating FFO”). We define Operating FFO as the company’s share of revenues less direct costs and interest expenses; excludes realized carried interest and disposition gains, fair value changes, depreciation and amortization and deferred income taxes; and includes our proportionate share of FFO from operating activities recorded by equity accounted investments on a fully diluted basis.

We make reference to Net Operating Income (“NOI”), which refers to the revenues from our operations less direct expenses before the impact of depreciation and amortization within our real estate business. We present this measure as we believe it is a key indicator of our ability to impact the operating performance of our properties. As NOI excludes non-recurring items and depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, it provides a performance measure that, when compared to prior periods, reflects the impact of operations from trends in occupancy rates and rental rates.

We disclose a number of financial measures in this news release that are calculated and presented using methodologies other than in accordance with IFRS. These financial measures, which include DE, should not be considered as the sole measure of our performance and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, similar financial measures calculated in accordance with IFRS. We caution readers that these non-IFRS financial measures or other financial metrics are not standardized under IFRS and may differ from the financial measures or other financial metrics disclosed by other businesses and, as a result, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers and entities.

We provide additional information on key terms and non-IFRS measures in our filings available at www.bn.brookfield.com.
