Earnings Call Q4 2025

February 12, 2026 - AI Summary

Strong Financial Performance: Manulife reported a record core earnings result with an 8% growth in core EPS and a 30 basis point increase in core ROE, reaching 17.1%. The company remains on track to meet its target of 18% plus by 2027, driven by strong new business growth across all insurance segments and robust returns from its diversified portfolio.
Dividends and Buybacks: The Board approved a 10% increase in the quarterly common share dividend, reflecting a commitment to return capital to shareholders. Additionally, a new NCIB program allows the repurchase of up to 2.5% of outstanding shares, building on a previous buyback total of 3% in 2025, signifying ongoing capital discipline and a focus on shareholder value.
Challenges in Global WAM: Despite strong earnings, Global Wealth and Asset Management (WAM) experienced net outflows of $9.5 billion in Q4 due to planned redemptions and participant withdrawals in U.S. retirement funds. While margins remained strong, this trend may pose challenges in maintaining growth momentum in the segment amidst macroeconomic uncertainties.
