The release states Manulife will not redeem its outstanding Series 3 and Series 4 Class 1 preferred shares on June 19, 2026, preserving investor holdings.

Manulife Financial Corporation is leaving its preferred share capital structure unchanged in 2026 and will not redeem its outstanding Series 3 or Series 4 Class 1 Preferred Shares on June 19, 2026.
