Distributable Earnings increased to $1.6 billion

Over $1 Billion of BN and BAM Shares Repurchased in Volatility of Markets to Date in 2026

BROOKFIELD, NEWS, May 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brookfield Corporation (NYSE:BN, TSX:BN) announced strong financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026.

Nick Goodman, President of Brookfield Corporation, said, "We started the year strong, with good growth in asset management, continued scaling of wealth solutions, and stable cash flows in our operating businesses. We were active in many areas, including the repurchase of over $1 billion of shares year-to-date in the open market—of which $470 million were BN shares and $575 million were BAM shares."

Nick Goodman continued, "As part of our ongoing efforts to streamline our corporate structure, we are advancing plans to combine Brookfield Corporation (BN) and our insurance business (BNT). As our insurance platform continues to scale, the combination will enhance capital efficiency and flexibility, supporting our ability to deploy capital globally into high-quality investment opportunities, and our commitment to provide excellent service and long-term certainty for our policyholders. This builds on the successful conversion of our listed private business entity (BBUC) earlier this year and the progress we have made exploring similar initiatives with our listed infrastructure and energy vehicles."

Total consolidated net income was $1.0 billion for the quarter and $4.1 billion for the last twelve months ("LTM"). Distributable earnings before realizations were $1.4 billion ($0.59/share) for the quarter and $5.5 billion ($2.32/share) for the LTM.

Asset Management generated an 11% increase in fee-related earnings compared to the prior year quarter, supported by strong institutional fundraising across our flagship and diversified complementary strategies, increasing fee-bearing capital to $614 billion at quarter end. Wealth Solutions delivered strong results, benefiting from robust investment performance and continued expansion of the insurance asset base. Operating Businesses continued to deliver stable cash flows, demonstrating their resilience and the high quality of their underlying operations.

During the quarter and for the LTM, earnings from realizations were $157 million and $531 million, with total DE for the quarter and for the LTM of $1.6 billion ($0.66/share) and $6.0 billion ($2.54/share), respectively.

Regular Dividend Declaration

The Board declared a quarterly dividend for Brookfield Corporation of $0.07 per share, payable on June 30, 2026 to shareholders of record as at the close of business on June 15, 2026. The Board also declared the regular monthly and quarterly dividends on our preferred shares.

Operating Highlights

Distributable earnings before realizations were $1.4 billion ($0.59/share) for the quarter and $5.5 billion ($2.32/share) for the last twelve months, representing an increase of 7% and 6% on a per share basis over the prior periods. Total distributable earnings were $1.6 billion ($0.66/share) for the quarter and $6.0 billion ($2.54/share) for the last twelve months.

Asset Management

DE was $765 million ($0.32/share) in the quarter and $2.8 billion ($1.20/share) for the LTM.
Year-to-date fundraising totaled $67 billion, including $21 billion raised in the first quarter, reflecting strong demand from our institutional clients. This included $5 billion from retail and wealth clients, a $40 billion investment mandate from Just Group, and $6 billion raised in April for our seventh vintage flagship private equity strategy.
We expect to finalize the first close of our seventh vintage flagship private equity strategy in the coming months. Our operator-led focus on cash-flowing industrial and essential services businesses is resonating with our partners at this point in this cycle where everyone is seeking "hard assets".
Fee-bearing capital increased by 12% to $614 billion, driving an 11% increase in fee-related earnings compared to the prior year quarter.

Wealth Solutions

DE was $430 million ($0.18/share) in the quarter and $1.7 billion ($0.71/share) for the LTM.
Retail and institutional annuity sales totaled $4 billion for the quarter, increasing to approximately $5 billion including Just Group.
We continued to improve the performance of our P&C business by focusing on a more targeted set of specialty lines, achieving a combined ratio of 99% during the quarter.
During the quarter, we deployed $4 billion into Brookfield client-managed strategies across our investment portfolio at an average target yield of 10%.
At quarter end, we held $13.2 billion of book equity, generating $2.0 billion in annualized cash flows, underpinning a 15% return on equity and a valuation by us of $30 billion.
Subsequent to the quarter end, we announced the completion of the acquisition of Just Group. The acquisition increases our insurance assets by $40 billion to $180 billion, and significantly expands our operations in the U.K. as we continue to execute on our global expansion strategy.

Operating Businesses

DE was $360 million ($0.15/share) in the quarter and $1.5 billion ($0.65/share) for the LTM.
Cash distributions were supported by the strong operating earnings of our infrastructure, energy and private equity businesses.
Operating fundamentals across our real estate portfolio remain strong, with super core assets ending the quarter at 96% occupancy and our core plus portfolio at 95%. During the quarter, we completed 5.5 million square feet of office and retail leases, with office leasing achieving net rents 15% above expiring levels.
Capital markets remain constructive, with strong liquidity for high-quality, cash-flowing assets, including real estate, where financing activity continues to recover robustly. As an example, we refinanced Two Manhattan West, one of our super core office towers in Manhattan, placing a non-recourse $1.9 billion mortgage with a 10-year term and a coupon of 5.53%, or a 107 bps spread. This allowed us to repay the prior $1.5 billion mortgage and generate $400 million of net cash, and we continue to own the building.

Earnings from the monetization of mature assets were $157 million ($0.07/share) for the quarter and $531 million ($0.22/share) for the LTM.

During the quarter, we executed $17 billion of asset sales across the business, as transaction activity remained resilient across most asset classes.
Monetization activity included $6 billion in infrastructure, $5 billion in energy, $2 billion in real estate, and $4 billion of other diversified assets across our operating businesses. Substantially all sales were completed at or above our carrying values, returning significant value to our clients.
Total accumulated unrealized carried interest was $11.8 billion at quarter end, net of $157 million realized into income in the quarter and $528 million for the LTM. With continued progress returning capital to investors and with an active pipeline of monetizations, we are well positioned to realize significant carried interest into income over the next three years.

We ended the quarter with $188 billion of capital available to deploy into new investments.

We have deployable capital of $188 billion, which includes $74 billion of cash, financial assets and undrawn credit lines at the Corporation, our affiliates and our wealth solutions business, as well as $114 billion of uncalled private fund commitments.
Our balance sheet remains conservatively capitalized, with corporate debt at the Corporation carrying a weighted-average term of 15 years.
Amid a supportive capital markets environment, we advanced $45 billion of financings across the franchise, including $15 billion in our real estate business.
During the quarter, we returned $598 million of capital to our shareholders via regular dividends and share repurchases. Year-to-date, we repurchased $470 million of BN Class A shares in the open market at an average price of $41, which represents an approximate 40% discount to our view of intrinsic value at quarter end of $66. BAM has also been active, repurchasing $575 million of its shares in the open market.

Combination of BN and BNT

Over the last 18 months, we have streamlined our corporate structure. The next step is the combination of BN and its paired security, BNT. The end result will be a fully integrated insurance and investment organization.

This builds on the steps closed to date, including the successful conversion of Brookfield Business Partners and Brookfield Business Corporation into a single listed corporate entity. The dominance of index investing, strong shareholder support, and a positive market response have reinforced our view that simpler structures with larger market capitalizations are now the most effective way to position these businesses. We are also evaluating a similar simplification plan for our two infrastructure and our two energy entities.

When we established our wealth solutions business, we structured it in a manner that enabled it to benefit from the Corporation's capital base and investing capabilities. That approach served us well. Over the past five years, we have grown our insurance business to $30 billion of value, while growing the asset base to close to $200 billion.

It is now clear that to keep growing and to maximize our returns and lower risk, a full combination is optimal. Providing our insurance operations with greater access to the Corporation's balance sheet will enhance capital efficiency and flexibility in optimizing our capital structure to support Brookfield's continued expansion over the long term.

This combination is expected to allow us to fully utilize our permanent capital base—an incremental approximately $145 billion of cash, equities, real estate, and other investments—to support the growth of our insurance operations. Simply stated, few other insurance businesses in the world will have access to this scale of excess capital to add to its equity base.

The transaction is expected to be completed on a tax-efficient basis for most shareholders of both BN and BNT, and the combined business is expected to be listed on the TSX and NYSE and trade under the symbol "BN".

As a part of this, and to allow greater comparability to peers, from the first quarter of 2027, we will adopt U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP").

We continue to refine the various details to implement the transaction and expect final review of the transaction by the boards of directors of BN and BNT to occur in the coming weeks. Subject to the approval of each board, we intend to seek BN and BNT shareholder approvals on the transaction, as a special matter, at their respective 2026 annual general meetings, both scheduled for July 16, 2026.

Non-IFRS and Performance Measures

This news release and accompanying financial information are based on IFRS Accounting Standards, as issued by the IASB, unless otherwise noted.

We make reference to Distributable Earnings ("DE"). We define DE as the sum of distributable earnings before realizations from our asset management business and 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. Distributable earnings before realizations from our Asset Management business is comprised of fee-related earnings and other income (expenses), net of cash taxes and equity-based compensation costs from BAM, as well as FFO on direct investments. Distributable earnings from our Wealth Solutions business is calculated as net income from our Wealth Solutions business, excluding the impact of depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes, net income from our equity accounted investments, mark-to-market on investments and derivatives, breakage and transaction costs, and is inclusive of our proportionate share of DE from investments in associates. 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 profits generated within a private fund after achieving 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 this measure of value to them.

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.
