WisdomTree Announces Second Quarter 2026 Results

July 31, 2026 6:00 AM

Record AUM of $162.9 Billion

Diluted Earnings Per Share of $0.28; Adjusted Earnings Per Share of $0.31

13% Annualized Organic Flow Growth Rate

Operating Margin Expanded by 780 bps Year over Year; or 900 bps, on an Adjusted Basis

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- WisdomTree, Inc. (NYSE: WT), a global financial innovator, today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2026.

$44.3 million of net income ($48.1(1) million, as adjusted). See “Non-GAAP Financial Measurements” for additional information.

$162.9 billion of ending AUM, an increase of 6.7% from the prior quarter arising from AUM related to our acquisition of Atlantic House Holdings Limited (“Atlantic House”), market appreciation and net inflows.

$3.1 billion of net inflows, across the United States and Europe primarily driven by inflows into our commodity, international developed equity and U.S. equity products, partly offset by outflows from our leveraged and inverse products.

0.36% average advisory fee, unchanged from the prior quarter.

0.43% revenue yield(2), a 1 basis point increase from the prior quarter due to revenues arising from the Atlantic House acquisition.

$177.2 million of operating revenues, an increase of 11.1% from the prior quarter due to higher average AUM, the Atlantic House acquisition, and higher performance fees and higher other revenues attributable to our European listed exchange-traded products (“ETPs”).

82.9% gross margin(1), a 1.5 point decrease from the prior quarter primarily reflecting higher expenses, including those associated with anticipated fund launches.

40.5% operating income margin for the quarter (42.6%(1) as adjusted), an increase of 330 basis points from the prior quarter on both a GAAP and as adjusted basis. Operating margin expansion was primarily driven by higher revenues, seasonally elevated compensation expense in the prior period and lower acquisition-related costs, partially offset by higher intangible amortization arising from the Atlantic House acquisition. Adjusted operating income margin excludes intangible asset amortization and acquisition-related costs.

39.0% operating income margin year-to date (41.1%(3) as adjusted), an increase of 780 basis points (900 basis points(3), as adjusted) from the prior-year period. Operating income margin expansion was primarily driven by higher revenues, including contributions from Ceres Partners, LLC (“Ceres”), partly offset by higher intangible asset amortization related to the Ceres and Atlantic House acquisitions and increased third-party distribution fees. Adjusted operating income margin excludes intangible asset amortization and acquisition-related costs.

$126.9 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes retired, including $75.0 million of 3.25% convertible notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) and $51.9 million of 3.25% convertible senior notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”), for aggregate cash consideration of $207.5 million. Conversion prices of the 2026 Notes and 2029 Notes were $11.04 and $11.82, respectively.

$25.9 million of common stock repurchased, representing approximately 1.5 million shares at an average repurchase price of $17.40 per share.

$0.03 quarterly dividend declared, payable on August 26, 2026 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 12, 2026.

Update from Jarrett Lilien, WisdomTree President and COO

"The second quarter demonstrated the quality of WisdomTree's growth. Our sixth consecutive quarter of record assets under management reflects momentum that is broad-based across regions, asset classes and client segments—not dependent on any single product, market or geography. That breadth, combined with continued operating discipline, positions WisdomTree to continue delivering sustainable organic growth and margin expansion."

Update from Jonathan Steinberg, WisdomTree CEO

"This was another excellent quarter for WisdomTree and a reflection of the diversified business we've spent the past two decades building. As we celebrate our twentieth anniversary, we've evolved from an ETF pioneer into a modern global asset manager spanning ETFs, private markets, liquid alternatives and tokenized financial infrastructure. Our vision has remained remarkably consistent, even as the opportunities in front of us have expanded. We believe we're still in the early innings of what this platform can become, and we're excited about the opportunities ahead."

See “Non-GAAP Financial Measurements.”

(2)

Revenue yield is computed by dividing our annualized adjusted operating revenues as reported in the GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation herein by our average AUM during the period.

(3)

Adjusted operating margin is calculated as adjusted operating income divided by total revenues. Adjusted operating income excludes intangible asset amortization of $4,046 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and acquisition-related costs of $3,051 and $1,967 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

(4)

Earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated pursuant to the two-class method as it results in a lower EPS amount as compared to the treasury stock method. In addition, the three months ended September 30, 2025 includes $718 of stock repurchase excise taxes, which is excluded from net income, but is required to be added to net income to arrive at income available to common stockholders in the calculation of EPS. This item is excluded from our EPS when computed on a non-GAAP basis.

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. Also excluded are remeasurement gains on British pounds held to complete the Atlantic House acquisition. 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.

Remeasurement of contingent consideration arising from the Ceres acquisition: 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 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. We exclude changes in fair value of contingent consideration 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, amortization of intangible assets, 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:

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

Additional risks include those associated with the Ceres and Atlantic House acquisitions, 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.
