NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 01, 2026-- 

WisdomTree, Inc. $(WT)$, a global financial innovator, today reported financial results for the first quarter of 2026.

($23.1) million of net loss ($40.6(1) million of net income, as adjusted), including a loss on extinguishment of convertible notes of $62.3 million, comprised of a loss on extinguishment of $16.9 million associated with the repurchase of $75.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 3.25% convertible senior notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes") and a $45.4 million inducement expense related to the repurchase of $275.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 3.25% convertible senior notes due 2029 (the "2029 Notes"). See "Non-GAAP Financial Measurements" for additional information.

$152.6 billion of ending AUM, an increase of 5.6% from the prior quarter arising primarily from net inflows and market appreciation.

$5.9 billion of net inflows, primarily driven by inflows into our international developed equity, fixed income and leveraged and inverse products across the United States and Europe.

0.36% average advisory fee, a 1 basis point increase from the prior quarter.

0.42% revenue yield(2) , unchanged from the prior quarter.

$159.5 million of operating revenues, an increase of 8.2% from the prior quarter due to higher average AUM and higher other revenues attributable to our European listed exchange-traded products ("ETPs").

84.4% gross margin(1) , a 1.2 point increase from the prior quarter primarily due to higher revenues.

37.2% operating income margin (39.3%(1) as adjusted), a 3.3 point decrease (2.4 point decrease, as adjusted) from the prior quarter primarily due to seasonally higher compensation expense.

$603.75 million issuance of convertible senior notes due 2031 (the "2031 Notes"), bearing interest at a rate of 4.50% and issued with a conversion price of $21.58 per share. Concurrent with the issuance of the 2031 Notes, we completed separate, privately negotiated transactions with certain holders of our outstanding 2026 Notes (conversion price of $11.04 per share) to exchange $75.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes for approximately 6.81 million shares of our common stock and with certain holders of our outstanding 2029 Notes (conversion price of $11.82 per share) to exchange $275.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Notes for approximately $302.7 million in cash and approximately 4.19 million shares of common stock.

$0.03 quarterly dividend declared, payable on May 27, 2026 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 13, 2026.

Update from Jarrett Lilien, WisdomTree President and COO

 
 "This was another quarter of consistent, broad-based execution, with nearly 
 $6 billion of net inflows and continued momentum across the business. What 
 stands out most is the quality and breadth of those flows, with clients 
 engaging across asset classes, geographies and use cases. That speaks to the 
 strength of our platform and our ability to generate growth across market 
 environments. We are not reliant on any single product or theme -- our 
 business is becoming increasingly diversified, resilient and positioned to 
 scale." 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 
 

Update from Jonathan Steinberg, WisdomTree CEO

 
 "We delivered another quarter of strong execution in a volatile environment, 
 reinforcing the strength of a business that is becoming more diversified, 
 more durable and increasingly capable of compounding growth over time. Our 
 strategy is centered on building a high-quality growth platform -- combining 
 organic momentum with disciplined, strategic acquisitions like Ceres Partners 
 and Atlantic House that expand our capabilities, enhance our economics and 
 accelerate our long-term trajectory. We believe this positions WisdomTree to 
 deliver sustained growth, margin expansion and increasing earnings power."

QUARTERLY HIGHLIGHTS

Operating Revenues

   --  Operating revenues increased 8.2% from the fourth quarter of 2025, 
      driven by higher average AUM, a higher average advisory fee and increased 
      other revenues attributable to our European listed ETPs, partly offset by 
      lower performance fees. Operating revenues increased 47.5% from the first 
      quarter of 2025, driven by higher average AUM, a higher average advisory 
      fee, revenues arising from our acquisition of Ceres Partners, LLC (the 
      "Ceres Acquisition") and increased other revenues from our European 
      listed ETPs. 
 
   --  Our average advisory fee was 0.36% for the first quarter of 2026, 
      compared to 0.35% for both the first and fourth quarters of 2025. 

Operating Expenses

   --  Operating expenses increased 14.2% from the fourth quarter of 2025 
      primarily due to higher seasonal compensation expenses related to payroll 
      taxes, benefits and other costs associated with year-end bonus payments, 
      as well as acquisition-related costs associated with our acquisition of 
      Atlantic House and higher third-party distribution fees. 
 
   --  Operating expenses increased 35.4% from the first quarter of 2025, 
      primarily due to higher incentive compensation and headcount, as well as 
      increases in fund management and administration expenses, 
      acquisition-related costs, third-party distribution fees and amortization 
      of intangible assets. 

Other Income/(Expenses)

   --  Interest expense was essentially unchanged from the fourth quarter of 
      2025 and increased 102.6% from the first quarter of 2025 due to a higher 
      level of debt outstanding. 
 
   --  Interest income decreased 12.6% from the fourth quarter of 2025 and 
      increased 36.6% from the first quarter of 2025, primarily due to changes 
      in interest rates and the level of interest-earning assets. 
 
   --  During the first quarter of 2026, we recognized a $62.3 million loss 
      related to transactions involving our convertible notes, comprised of a 
      loss on extinguishment of $16.9 million associated with the repurchase of 
      $75.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 2026 Notes and a $45.4 
      million inducement expense related to the repurchase of $275.0 million in 
      aggregate principal amount of our 2029 Notes. 
 
   --  Contingent consideration related to the Ceres Acquisition increased 
      from $11.8 million on December 31, 2025 to $14.4 million at March 31, 
      2026, resulting in a $2.6 million loss on remeasurement recognized during 
      the first quarter of 2026. 
 
   --  Other losses and gains, net, was a loss of $0.6 million for the first 
      quarter of 2026. This included net losses of $0.9 million on our 
      financial instruments owned and net losses of $0.5 million on our 
      investments. Gains and losses also generally arise from the sale of gold 
      and cryptocurrency earned from advisory fees paid by our 
      physically-backed gold and crypto ETPs, foreign exchange fluctuations and 
      miscellaneous items. 

Income Taxes

   --  Our effective income tax rate for the first quarter of 2026 was 
      negative 58.6%, resulting in income tax expense of $8.5 million. Despite 
      a pre-tax loss for the quarter, we recorded income tax expense primarily 
      due to certain non-deductible amounts associated with the extinguishment 
      of convertible notes, which caused our effective tax rate to differ from 
      the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0%. Other items impacting our 
      effective tax rate included non-deductible executive compensation, partly 
      offset by state and local taxes and tax windfalls associated with the 
      vesting of stock-based compensation awards. 
 
   --  Our adjusted effective income tax rate for the first quarter of 2026 
      was 25.7%(1).

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASUREMENTS

In an effort to provide additional information regarding our results as determined by GAAP, we also disclose certain non-GAAP information which we believe provides useful and meaningful information. Our management reviews these non-GAAP financial measurements when evaluating our financial performance and results of operations; therefore, we believe it is useful to provide information with respect to these non-GAAP measurements so as to share this perspective of management. Non-GAAP measurements do not have any standardized meaning, do not replace nor are they superior to GAAP financial measurements and are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measurements should be considered in the context with our GAAP results. The non-GAAP financial measurements contained in this press release include the following:

Adjusted Operating Income, Operating Expenses, Income Before Income Taxes, Income Tax Expense, Net Income and Diluted Earnings per Share

We disclose adjusted operating income, operating expenses, income before income taxes, income tax expense, net income and diluted earnings per share as non-GAAP financial measurements in order to report our results exclusive of items that are non-recurring or not core to our operating business. We believe presenting these non-GAAP financial measurements provides investors with a consistent way to analyze our performance. These non-GAAP financial measurements exclude the following:

Gains or losses on financial instruments owned: We account for our financial instruments owned as trading securities, which requires these instruments to be measured at fair value with gains and losses reported in net income. We exclude these items when calculating our non-GAAP financial measurements as the gains and losses introduce earnings volatility and are not core to our operating business.

Foreign currency remeasurement gains and losses on U.S. dollars held by foreign subsidiaries: GAAP requires account balances to be remeasured into an entity's functional currency, with resulting gains and losses reported in net income. Foreign subsidiaries holding U.S. dollars remeasure these balances into their functional currencies and recognize the gains and losses. We exclude remeasurement effects from our non-GAAP financial measures, as they introduce earnings volatility, are not core to our operations and arise from balances denominated in our reporting currency.

Tax windfalls and shortfalls upon vesting of stock-based compensation awards: GAAP requires the recognition of tax windfalls and shortfalls within income tax expense. These items arise upon the vesting of stock-based compensation awards and the magnitude is directly correlated to the number of awards vesting/exercised, as well as the difference between the price of our stock on the date the award was granted and the date the award vested or was exercised. We exclude these items when calculating our non-GAAP financial measurements as they introduce earnings volatility and are not core to our operating business.

Amortization of intangible assets and remeasurement of contingent consideration arising from our acquisition of Ceres Partners, LLC: On October 1, 2025, we completed the Ceres Acquisition for aggregate consideration consisting of (i) $275 million in cash payable at closing, subject to customary post-closing adjustments and (ii) contingent consideration of up to $225 million, payable in 2030, contingent upon Ceres Partners, LLC achieving a compound annual growth rate ("CAGR") in revenues of 12% to 22% during the measurement period of January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2029. GAAP requires contingent consideration to be re-measured each reporting period with changes in fair value reported in net income. In addition, a portion of the consideration totaling $143.5 million was allocated to intangible assets, which is amortized over 25 years. We exclude changes in fair value of contingent consideration and amortization of intangible assets arising from the Ceres Acquisition when calculating our non-GAAP financial measurements as these items are not core to our operating business.

Other items: Losses related to convertible notes transactions, changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowance, acquisition-related costs, imputed interest on our payable to Gold Bullion Holdings (Jersey) Limited ("GBH") and gains and losses recognized on our investments are excluded when calculating our non-GAAP financial measurements.

Adjusted Effective Income Tax Rate

We disclose our adjusted effective income tax rate as a non-GAAP financial measurement in order to report our effective income tax rate exclusive of items that are non-recurring or not core to our operating business. We believe reporting our adjusted effective income tax rate provides investors with a consistent way to analyze our income taxes. Our adjusted effective income tax rate is calculated by dividing adjusted income tax expense by adjusted income before income taxes. See above for information regarding the items that are excluded.

Gross Margin and Gross Margin Percentage

We disclose our gross margin and gross margin percentage as non-GAAP financial measurements because we believe they provide investors with a consistent way to analyze the amount we retain after paying third-party service providers to operate our ETPs. These measures also assist us in analyzing the profitability of our products. We define gross margin as total adjusted operating revenues less fund management and administration expenses. Gross margin percentage is calculated as gross margin divided by total adjusted operating revenues.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This press release contains forward-looking statements that are based on our management's beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to our management. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, these statements relate to future events or our future financial performance, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "will," "should, " "expects," "intends," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts," "potential," "continue" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements because they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which are, in some cases, beyond our control and could materially affect results. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, among other things, the risks described below. If one or more of these or other risks or uncertainties occur, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual events or results may vary significantly from those implied or projected by the forward-looking statements. No forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future performance. You should read this press release completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from any future results expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

In particular, forward-looking statements in this press release may include statements about:

   --  anticipated trends, conditions and investor sentiment in the global 
      markets and ETPs; 
 
   --  anticipated levels of inflows into and outflows out of our ETPs; 
 
   --  our ability to deliver favorable rates of return to investors; 
 
   --  competition in our business; 
 
   --  whether we will experience future growth; 
 
   --  our ability to develop new products and services and their potential 
      for success; 
 
   --  our ability to maintain current vendors or find new vendors to provide 
      services to us at favorable costs; 
 
   --  our ability to successfully implement our strategy relating to digital 
      assets and blockchain-enabled financial services, including WisdomTree 
      Connect(TM) and WisdomTree Prime(R), and achieve its objectives; 
 
   --  our ability to successfully operate and expand our business in non-U.S. 
      markets; 
 
   --  the effect of laws and regulations that apply to our business; 
 
   --  the potential benefits arising from our acquisitions of Ceres Partners, 
      LLC, and Atlantic House Holdings Limited, including financial or 
      strategic outcomes; and 
 
   --  our ability to successfully implement our strategic goals relating to 
      the acquisitions and integrate the acquired businesses. 

Our business is subject to many risks and uncertainties, including without limitation:

   --  declining prices of securities, gold and other precious metals and 
      other commodities and changes in interest rates and general market 
      conditions can adversely affect our business by reducing the market value 
      of the assets we manage or causing WisdomTree ETP investors to sell their 
      fund shares and trigger redemptions; 
 
   --  fluctuations in the amount and mix of our AUM, whether caused by 
      disruptions in the financial markets or otherwise, including but not 
      limited to events such as a pandemic or war, geopolitical conflicts, 
      political events, acts of terrorism and other matters beyond our control, 
      may negatively impact revenues and operating margins, and may impede our 
      ability to refinance our debt upon maturity or increase the cost of 
      borrowing upon a refinancing; 
 
   --  competitive pressures could reduce revenues and profit margins; 
 
   --  we derive a substantial portion of our revenues from a limited number 
      of products, and, as a result, our operating results are particularly 
      exposed to investor sentiment toward investing in the products' 
      strategies and our ability to maintain the AUM of these products, as well 
      as the performance of these products and market-specific and political 
      and economic risk; 
 
   --  a significant portion of our AUM is held in products with exposure to 
      U.S. and international developed markets, and we therefore have exposure 
      to domestic and foreign market conditions and are subject to currency 
      exchange rate risks; 
 
   --  withdrawals or broad changes in investments in our ETPs by investors 
      with significant positions may negatively impact revenues and operating 
      margins; 
 
   --  we face increased operational, regulatory, financial and other risks as 
      a result of conducting our business internationally, and as we expand our 
      digital assets product offerings and services beyond our existing ETP 
      business; 
 
   --  many of our ETPs have a limited track record, and poor investment 
      performance could cause our revenues to decline; and 
 
   --  we depend on third parties to provide many critical services to operate 
      our business and our ETPs. The failure of key vendors to adequately 
      provide such services could materially affect our operating business and 
      harm WisdomTree ETP investors. 

Additional risks include those associated with the acquisitions of Ceres Partners, LLC and Atlantic House Holdings Limited, including the risk that the integrations may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected, or that expected benefits (including projected business growth, realization of synergies, or the ability to raise additional capital into the funds of the acquired businesses) may not be realized as anticipated. Other factors, such as general economic conditions, including currency exchange rate fluctuations, also may have an effect on the results of our operations. For a more complete description of the risks noted above and other risks that could cause our actual results to differ from our current expectations, see "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

The forward-looking statements in this press release represent our views as of the date of this press release. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments may cause our views to change. However, while we may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we have no current intention of doing so except to the extent required by applicable law. Therefore, these forward-looking statements do not represent our views as of any date other than the date of this press release.
