Operating Highlights
Distributable earnings before realizations were $1.5 billion ($0.63/share) for the quarter and $5.4 billion ($2.27/ share) for the year, representing an increase of 11% on a per share basis over the prior year. Total distributable earnings were $1.6 billion ($0.67/share) for the quarter and $6.0 billion ($2.54/share) for the year.
Asset Management
- DE was $746 million ($0.32/share) in the quarter and $2.8 billion ($1.17/share) for the year.
- Fundraising totaled $112 billion for the year, including $24 billion from our retail and wealth clients, driven by a broad range of complementary strategies and strong fundraising across our flagship strategies, which included the final closes of our energy transition strategy, our opportunistic credit strategy, and our largest opportunistic real estate strategy to date.
- Fee-bearing capital increased by 12% to $603 billion, supporting a 22% increase in fee-related earnings to $3.0 billion for the year.
- With strong fundraising visibility, including the launch of our latest flagship private equity fund and our inaugural AI infrastructure fund, we are well positioned to deliver another year of meaningful growth.
Wealth Solutions
- DE was $430 million ($0.18/share) in the quarter and $1.7 billion ($0.71/share) for the year.
- Retail and institutional annuity sales totaled $20 billion for the year, increasing insurance assets to $143 billion, with 85% of annuities written during the year having a term of five years or longer. We launched our institutional funding agreement program during the year, contributing over $2 billion to inflows.
- We continued to improve the performance of our P&C business by focusing on a more targeted set of specialty lines. This drove a 73% increase in underwriting profitability over the prior year and contributed to a reduction in the overall cost of our insurance liabilities.
- During the year, we deployed $13 billion into Brookfield-managed strategies across our investment portfolio at an average yield of 8.5%.
- Several key strategic initiatives were achieved in 2025, including receiving shareholder approval for the acquisition of Just Group in the U.K., entering the Japanese market, and making meaningful progress toward broader U.S. private wealth distribution.
- We ended the year with $12.7 billion of book equity, which earns today $1.9 billion of annualized cashflows, supporting a 15% return on equity and valued by us at ±$28 billion.
Operating Businesses
- DE was $460 million ($0.19/share) in the quarter and $1.6 billion ($0.68/share) for the year.
- Cash distributions were supported by the strong operating earnings of our renewable power and transition, infrastructure and private equity businesses.
- Operating fundamentals across our real estate portfolio continue to strengthen, with our super core assets ending the year at 96% occupancy and our core plus portfolio at 95%. We had a strong year of leasing activity, and signed 27 million square feet of office and retail space, underpinned by long-term leasing commitments from large, creditworthy tenants, including Visa and Moody’s.
- During the year, we made meaningful progress advancing partnerships that further scale our businesses such as the agreements with Google to supply hydroelectric power, with NVIDIA to support the build-out of AI factories, and with the U.S. government to accelerate the development of nuclear power in the U.S.
Earnings from the monetization of mature assets were $88 million ($0.04/share) for the quarter and
$622 million ($0.27/share) for the year.
- During the year, we advanced a record $91 billion of asset sales across the business, reflecting the return of transaction activity across most asset classes supported by improved market sentiment and strong buyer demand for high-quality, cash-generative businesses.
- Monetization activity included $24 billion in real estate, $22 billion in infrastructure, $12 billion in renewable power, and $33 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 $11.6 billion at year end, net of $88 million realized into income in the quarter and $560 million over the year. 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 a record $188 billion of capital available to deploy into new investments.
- We have record deployable capital of $188 billion, which includes $77 billion of cash, financial assets and undrawn credit lines at the Corporation, our affiliates and our wealth solutions business, as well as
$111 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. We continue to maintain an A- or equivalent rating on our unsecured senior debt across all major rating agencies.
- Capital markets improved meaningfully during the year, providing liquidity for real assets and driving increased transaction activity. We executed approximately $175 billion of financings across the franchise. Recent highlights include:
- At the Corporation, we issued C$1 billion of 7-year and 30-year term notes at favorable spreads, reflecting continued strong market demand and the strength of our credit profile.
- In real estate, we successfully refinanced a $1.5 billion term loan at the operating company level, supporting a diversified portfolio of multifamily, office, and retail assets, as well as a $1.2 billion CMBS loan at our North America logistics portfolio, and issued €500 million of bonds at our German office REIT, demonstrating strong capital markets access for high-quality assets.
- During the year, we returned $1.6 billion of capital to our shareholders via regular dividends and share repurchases, including the repurchase of over $1 billion of Class A shares in the open market at an average price of $36, which represents an approximate 50% discount to our view of intrinsic value at quarter end of $68.

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 from our asset management business, distributable operating earnings from 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. 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 may make reference to Operating Funds from Operations (“Operating FFO”). We define Operating FFO as the company’s share of revenues less direct costs and interest expenses; excludes realized carried interest and disposition gains, fair value changes, depreciation and amortization and deferred income taxes; and includes our proportionate share of FFO from operating activities recorded by equity accounted investments on a fully diluted basis.
We may make reference to Net Operating Income (“NOI”), which refers to our share of the revenues from our operations less direct expenses before the impact of depreciation and amortization within our real estate business. We present this measure as we believe it is a key indicator of our ability to impact the operating performance of our properties. As NOI excludes non-recurring items and depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, it provides a performance measure that, when compared to prior periods, reflects the impact of operations from trends in occupancy rates and rental rates.
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.
