WisdomTree Investments (WT) stock plummeted 5.02% during intraday trading on Friday, a sharp decline that occurred following the release of the company's fourth-quarter 2025 financial results.
The asset manager reported adjusted earnings per share of $0.29, surpassing the analyst consensus estimate of $0.23. Revenue for the quarter reached $147.4 million, also exceeding market expectations. Despite these positive headline figures, the detailed results revealed net outflows of $0.3 billion, primarily from its fixed income products, and a significant 96.3% year-over-year increase in interest expense due to higher levels of debt.
Investors appeared to focus on these underlying concerns, leading to the sell-off. The company's earnings release also noted record assets under management of $144.5 billion, but the combination of client withdrawals and increased financing costs likely dampened sentiment.
