Victory Capital Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: VCTR) (“Victory Capital” or “the Company”) today reported record financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2025.
“We continue to make good progress with our integration work associated with Pioneer Investments, our newest Investment Franchise,” said David Brown, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We are firmly on track to deliver $110 million in net expense synergies, while simultaneously investing in strategic growth areas of the business. These net expense synergies are anticipated to be achieved within the previously disclosed timeframe.
“Our business and investment performance were both strong for the quarter. Gross long-term sales increased to $17 billion and our long-term net flows continued to improve for the fourth consecutive quarter. Long-term net outflows were just $244 million for the quarter. Our net flows continue to benefit from strong sales of our diversified suite of ETF products, which have added $5.4 billion of positive net flows through the first three quarters of the year.
“Firmwide investment performance through the end of September remains excellent. The percentage of our AUM outperforming benchmarks over the respective 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods was 64%, 65%, and 77%. In addition, 64% of our rated AUM in mutual funds and ETFs was rated four or five stars overall by Morningstar.
“During the quarter, we repurchased 1.8 million shares of our common stock and, together with cash dividends, returned approximately $163 million of capital to shareholders. At quarter end, our net debt to leverage ratio improved to 1.1x further enhancing our financial wherewithal to execute inorganic growth opportunities.
“As always, we continue to focus on serving our clients, which is our top priority.”

Third Quarter 2025 Compared with Second Quarter 2025
On April 1, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of Amundi US and reintroduced the brand Pioneer Investments ("Pioneer" or "Pioneer Investments") for the acquired business and investment products. Sequential results reflect the acquisition. Revenue increased 2.8% to $361.2 million in the third quarter, compared with $351.2 million in the second quarter, primarily due to higher average AUM over the comparable period.
GAAP operating margin expanded 1,140 basis points in the third quarter to 38.2%, up from 26.8% in the second quarter, due to a $11.9 million decrease in personnel, compensation, and benefits expense, a $25.4 million decrease in acquisition-related costs, and a $3.8 million decrease in restructuring and integration costs. Third quarter GAAP net income increased 64.4% to $96.5 million, up from $58.7 million in the prior quarter.
Adjusted net income with tax benefit increased 6.5% to $141.3 million, or $1.63 per diluted share, in the third quarter, up from $132.8 million, or $1.57 per diluted share, in the second quarter. Adjusted EBITDA increased $11.9 million to $190.5 million in the third quarter compared to $178.5 million in the second quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded 190 basis points in the third quarter of 2025 to 52.7% compared with 50.8% in the prior quarter.
Third Quarter 2025 Compared with Third Quarter 2024
Current year results reflect the acquisition of Amundi US, which closed on April 1, 2025. The acquisition positively impacted our financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2025 when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2025, increased 60.1% to $361.2 million, compared with $225.6 million in the same quarter of 2024 as a result of higher average AUM over the comparable period.
Operating expenses were $223.0 million compared with $105.3 million in last year’s third quarter reflecting variable operating expenses that rose as a result of the higher average AUM and expanded business and higher restructuring and integration costs related to the acquisition of Amundi US. GAAP operating margin contracted 1,510 basis points to 38.2% in the third quarter, from 53.3% in the same quarter of 2024. GAAP net income increased 17.8% to $96.5 million in the third quarter compared with $82.0 million in the same quarter of 2024.
Adjusted net income with tax benefit increased 58.7% to $141.3 million, or $1.63 per diluted share, in the third quarter, compared with $89.0 million, or $1.35 per diluted share in the same quarter last year. Adjusted EBITDA increased 57.1% to $190.5 million, compared with $121.3 million in the same quarter of last year. Year-over-year, adjusted EBITDA margin contracted 100 basis points to 52.7% in the third quarter of 2025, compared with 53.7% in the same quarter last year.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 Compared with Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024
Current year results reflect the acquisition of Amundi US, which closed on April 1, 2025. The acquisition positively impacted our financial results for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, increased 41.0% to $932.0 million, compared with $661.1 million in the same period of 2024 as a result of higher average AUM over the comparable period.
GAAP operating margin contracted 1,290 basis points, in the nine months ended September 30, 2025 to 34.9%, down from 47.8% in the same period of 2024, due to higher variable operating expenses as a result of the higher average AUM, an increase in acquisition-related costs, and an increase in restructuring and integration costs related to the acquisition of Amundi US. Nine months ended September 30, 2025, GAAP net income increased 2.5% to $217.3 million, up from $211.9 million in the prior period.
Adjusted net income with tax benefit increased 40.4% to $362.2 million, or $4.59 per diluted share, in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared with $258.0 million, or $3.91 per diluted share in the same period last year.

Balance Sheet / Capital Management
On September 23, 2025, the Company entered into the Sixth Amendment to Credit Agreement extending the maturity date of its revolving credit facility from March 31, 2026 to September 23, 2030 and decreasing the drawn interest rate margin by 0.25% per annum. The Company also refinanced its existing term loans with replacement term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $985,000,000.

The repriced term loans otherwise remain subject to substantially similar terms to those that were applicable to the previous credit agreement.

Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Victory Capital uses non-GAAP financial measures referred to as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income to measure the operating profitability of the Company. These measures eliminate the impact of one-time acquisition, restructuring and integration costs and demonstrate the ongoing operating earnings metrics of the Company. The Company has included these non-GAAP measures to provide investors with the same financial metrics used by management to assess the operating performance of the Company.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjustments made to GAAP Net Income to calculate Adjusted EBITDA, as applicable, are:
- Adding back income tax expense;
- Adding back interest paid on debt and other financing costs, net of interest income;
- Adding back depreciation on property and equipment;
- Adding back other business taxes;
- Adding back amortization expense on acquisition-related intangible assets;
- Adding back stock-based compensation expense associated with equity awards issued from pools created in connection with the management-led buyout and various acquisitions and as a result of equity grants related to the IPO;
- Adding back direct incremental costs of acquisitions, including restructuring costs;
- Adding back debt issuance cost expense;
- Adjusting for earnings/losses on equity method investments.
Adjusted Net Income
Adjustments made to GAAP Net Income to calculate Adjusted Net Income, as applicable, are:
- Adding back other business taxes;
- Adding back amortization expense on acquisition-related intangible assets;
- Adding back stock-based compensation expense associated with equity awards issued from pools created in connection with the management-led buyout and various acquisitions and as a result of any equity grants related to the IPO;
- Adding back direct incremental costs of acquisitions, including restructuring costs;
- Adding back debt issuance cost expense;
- Subtracting an estimate of income tax expense applied to the sum of the adjustments above.
Tax Benefit of Goodwill and Acquired Intangible Assets
Due to Victory Capital’s acquisitive nature, tax deductions allowed on acquired intangible assets and goodwill provide it with additional significant supplemental economic benefit. The tax benefit of goodwill and intangible assets represent the tax benefits associated with deductions allowed for intangible assets and goodwill generated from prior acquisitions in which the Company received a step-up in basis for tax purposes. Acquired intangible assets and goodwill may be amortized for tax purposes, generally over a 15-year period. The tax benefit from amortization on these assets is included to show the full economic benefit of deductions for all acquired intangible assets with a step-up in tax basis.
