Within our Public Markets platform, we captured more than $3 billion in new mandates, along with an additional $700 million of inflows related to mandates won during the year. In Private Markets, our AUM grew more than 11% for the year, driven by strong demand for real assets" said Maxime Ménard, Global President and Chief Executive Officer. "Looking ahead to 2026, we are well-positioned to build on this momentum and remain focused on accelerating growth through diligent and committed execution of our strategic priorities." "We are pleased to report year-over-year growth in Adjusted EBITDA and margins for the fourth quarter, aided by effective cost containment initiatives, with SG&A expenses declining by 7% from the prior year quarter" said Lucas Pontillo, Executive Director, Global Chief Financial Officer and Head of Corporate Strategy. "We reduced our total debt during the quarter, lowering our net debt ratio to 3.4x from 3.5x in the prior quarter. The Board of Directors has approved a dividend of 10.8 cents per share, payable on April 9, 2026."

This decrease was partly offset by a favourable market impact of $0.7 billion, as increases in the market value of AUM, primarily from equity mandates, were partly offset by an unfavourable foreign exchange impact from a weaker US dollar.  Negative net organic growth included $3.1 billion from sub-advised AUM, from net contributions related to ongoing client relationships, and $0.4 billion from Public Markets, excluding sub-advised AUM. The net organic growth from Private Markets was relatively flat as new mandates were largely offset by negative net contributions, primarily from return of capital. AUM decreased by $3.0 billion or 1.8% compared to December 31, 2024, primarily due to negative net organic growth of $10.9 billion, mainly from sub-advised AUM, partly offset by a favourable market impact of $8.3 billion from equity and fixed income mandates. Excluding sub-advised AUM, there was positive net organic growth of $1.0 billion, mainly from Private Markets.  Fourth Quarter Financial Highlights Revenue increased by $13.0 million or 7.8% compared to Q3 2025, primarily from higher performance fees, higher commitment and transaction fees, and higher base management fees in Public Markets. Revenue decreased by $3.9 million or 2.1% compared to Q4 2024, primarily due to lower base management fees in Public Markets and lower share of earnings in joint ventures and associates, partly offset by higher base management fees in Private Markets.         Adjusted EBITDA increased by $4.4 million or 8.7% compared to Q3 2025 due to higher revenues, partly offset by higher sub-advisory fees connected to performance fees, higher travel costs, and higher variable compensation. Adjusted EBITDA increased by $1.3 million or 2.4% compared to Q4 2024, primarily due to lower sub-advisory fees and lower fixed compensation, partly offset by lower revenues. Adjusted net earnings increased by $4.9 million or 19.6% compared to Q3 2025, primarily due to higher revenues, partly offset by higher selling, general, and administrative ("SG&A") expenses, excluding share-based compensation. Adjusted net earnings increased by $7.1 million or 31.1% compared to Q4 2024, primarily due to lower SG&A expenses, excluding share-based compensation, and balance sheet foreign exchange revaluation losses in the prior-year quarter, partly offset by lower revenues. Net earnings attributable to the Company's shareholders increased by $1.9 million or 32.8% compared to Q3 2025, primarily due to higher revenues, partly offset by higher SG&A expenses and higher restructuring, acquisition related and other costs. Net earnings attributable to the Company's shareholders increased by $7.9 million compared to Q4 2024, primarily due to lower SG&A expenses and balance sheet foreign exchange revaluation losses in the prior-year quarter, partly offset by higher restructuring, acquisition related and other costs and lower revenues.   LTM free cash flow decreased by $8.2 million or 9.4% compared to Q3 2025. The decrease was primarily due to higher dividends paid to non-controlling interest and the timing of accounts receivable collections, partly offset by higher distributions received from joint ventures and associates. LTM free cash flow decreased by $8.5 million or 9.7% compared to Q4 2024. The decrease was primarily due to higher dividends paid to non-controlling interest and lower distributions received from joint ventures and associates, partly offset by settlements of purchase price obligations in the prior year, lower lease payments, and lower interest paid on long-term debt and debentures. Net debt3 decreased by $16 million to $664 million at the end of Q4 2025 compared to $680 million at the end of Q3 2025, and Net debt ratio3 decreased to 3.42x from 3.53x over the same period. Funded debt, as defined in accordance with our credit agreement, increased by $35 million to $540 million at the end of Q4 2025 compared to $505 million at the end of Q3 2025, as funds from the credit facility along with cash generated during the quarter were used to redeem $67.25 million of senior subordinated unsecured debentures. As a result, Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio, as defined in accordance with our credit agreement, increased to 2.99x from 2.89x over the same period. Year-to-Date Financial Highlights Revenue decreased by $15.6 million or 2.3%, primarily due to lower base management fees in Public Markets, lower other revenues and lower share of earnings in joint ventures and associates, partly offset by higher base management fees in Private Markets. Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $1.7 million or 0.9%, primarily due to lower revenues, partly offset by lower SG&A expenses, excluding share-based compensation, mainly from lower sub-advisory fees. Adjusted net earnings increased by $4.9 million or 4.8%, primarily due to lower SG&A expenses, excluding share-based compensation and balance sheet foreign exchange revaluation losses in the prior year, partly offset by lower revenues. Net earnings attributable to the Company's shareholders increased by $14.0 million, primarily due to lower SG&A expenses, a $12.7 million gain on revaluation of an investment related to the acquisition of a controlling interest in a real estate investment platform, and balance sheet foreign exchange revaluation losses in the prior year. These increases were partly offset by lower revenues and higher restructuring, acquisition related and other costs.   Subsequent Events Dividend Declared On February 25, 2026, the Board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.108 per Class A Share and Class B Share, payable on April 9, 2026 to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 11, 2026. The dividend is an eligible dividend for income tax purposes.

Footnotes AUM is defined as the total market value of all assets managed or sub-advised by the Company, including strategies offered to Fiera Capital's clients but managed by third parties. For an explanation of the composition of AUM, please refer to the section entitled "Results from Operations and Overall Performance – AUM and Revenues" of the Management's Discussion and Analysis for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025. Attributable to the Company's shareholders. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net earnings, Free Cash Flow, Net debt and Net debt ratio are non-IFRS measures.  Refer to the "Non-IFRS Measures" section of this press release. Net Organic Growth represents the sum of new mandates, lost mandates and net contributions. Market and Other includes the impact of market changes, income distributions and foreign exchange.  Relates to the transfer of Balanced Funds from sub-advised mandates to US Growth Equity mandates in Q4 2025. Relates to the acquisition of a controlling interest in a real estate investment platform in Q1 2025 and the wind down of the Canadian Equity Small Capitalization and Canadian Equity Microcap Opportunity strategies in Q2 2025.     Non-IFRS Measures Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted EBITDA per share, Adjusted net earnings and Adjusted net earnings per share (basic and diluted), Last Twelve Months ("LTM") Free Cash Flow, Net debt and Net debt ratio are not standardized measures prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Net debt is the carrying amounts of long-term debt and debentures plus the fair value of cross currency swaps, net of cash and cash equivalents, as reported in the statement of financial position in the consolidated financial statements. We define Net debt ratio as the ratio of Net Debt to LTM Adjusted EBITDA. We have included non-IFRS measures to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating and financial performance. We believe non-IFRS measures are important supplemental metrics of operating and financial performance because they highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. Securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of issuers, many of which present non-IFRS measures when reporting their results. Management also uses non-IFRS measures in order to facilitate operating and financial performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual budgets and to assess its ability to meet future debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements. For a description of the Company's non-IFRS Measures, please refer to page 47 of the Company's Management's Discussion and Analysis for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025 which is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

Forward-Looking Statements This press release contains forward-looking statements relating to future events, or future performance reflecting management's expectations or beliefs regarding future events, including, without limitation, business and economic conditions, outlook and trends, Fiera Capital's growth, results of operations, performance, business prospects and opportunities, objectives, plans and strategic priorities, initiatives such as those related to sustainability, and other statements that do not refer to historical facts. Forward-looking statements may include comments on Fiera Capital's objectives, strategies to achieve these objectives, expected financial results or dividends, and the outlook for the Company's businesses, as well as for the Canadian, American, European, Asian and other global economies. Such forward-looking statements reflect management's current beliefs and are based on factors and assumptions it considers to be reasonable based on information currently available to management. These forward-looking statements may typically be identified by words or expressions such as "assumption", "continue", "estimate", "forecast", "goal", "guidance", "likely", "plan", "objective", "outlook", "potential", "foresee", "project", "strategy", "target", and other similar words or expressions or future or conditional verbs (including in their negative form) such as "aim", "anticipate", "believe", "could", "expect", "foresee", "intend", "may", "plan", "predict", "seek", "should", "strive" and "would". Forward-looking statements, by their very nature, are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties and are based on several assumptions, which makes it possible for actual results or events to differ materially from management's expectations and that predictions, forecasts, projections, expectations, conclusions or statements will not prove to be accurate. As a result, the Company does not guarantee that any forward-looking statement will materialize and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
