See endnotes on page 9.

Total consolidated net income was $1.1 billion for the quarter and $2.9 billion for the last twelve months (鈥淟TM鈥�). Distributable earnings before realizations were $1.3 billion ($0.80/share) for the quarter and $5.3 billion ($3.36/share) for the last twelve months.

Wealth solutions delivered strong financial results, benefiting from strong investment performance and disciplined capital deployment.

Our operating businesses continue to generate resilient and stable cash flows, supported by strong underlying operating fundamentals.

During the quarter and LTM, earnings from realizations were $132 million and $554 million, with total DE for the quarter and the LTM of $1.4 billion ($0.88/share) and $5.9 billion ($3.71/share), respectively.

Operating Highlights

Distributable earnings before realizations were $1.3 billion ($0.80/share) for the quarter and $5.3 billion ($3.36/share) over the last twelve months, representing an increase of 13% on a per share basis over the prior year quarter. Total distributable earnings were $1.4 billion ($0.88/share) for the quarter and $5.9 billion ($3.71/share) over the last twelve months.

Asset Management:

• DE was $650 million ($0.41/share) in the quarter and $2.7 billion ($1.72/share) over the LTM.
• Total inflows were $22 billion during the quarter, including over $5 billion from our retail and wealth solutions clients. With final closes anticipated for our fifth vintage flagship opportunistic real estate strategy and second vintage global transition strategy, we expect strong fundraising momentum to continue into the second half of 2025.
• Fee-bearing capital grew to $563 billion and resulted in fee-related earnings of $676 million, an increase of 10% and 16%, respectively, over the prior year quarter.
  

Wealth Solutions:

• DE was $391 million ($0.25/share) in the quarter and $1.6 billion ($1.02/share) over the LTM.
• We originated over $4 billion of retail and institutional annuity sales during the quarter, increasing insurance assets to $135 billion.
• This quarter, we deployed $3.5 billion into Brookfield managed strategies across our portfolio at an average net yield of 8%. Our investment portfolio generated an average yield of 5.8%, allowing us to maintain strong spread earnings which were 1.8% higher than the average cost of funds.
• We ended the quarter with a strong liquidity and capital position, with total group capital of approximately $16 billion⁴.
• Last week, we announced the acquisition of Just Group, a U.K. leader in pension risk transfer solutions, building on the foundation established with the successful licensing and launch of our U.K. business earlier this year, enabling us to scale faster in a high-growth market and expand our geographical footprint. With this acquisition, our insurance assets are expected to grow by approximately $40 billion, significantly accelerating the growth of the business.
  

Operating Businesses:

• DE was $350 million ($0.22/share) in the quarter and $1.7 billion ($1.07/share) over the LTM.
• Cash distributions from our operating businesses were supported by strong underlying fundamentals and resilient operating earnings.
• We signed a landmark agreement with Google to deliver up to 3,000 megawatts of hydroelectric capacity across the U.S., a first of its kind partnership that demonstrates our relationships with the world鈥檚 largest buyers of power.
• In our real estate business, despite short-term softness in North American residential, fundamentals continue to strengthen. We signed nearly 4 million square feet of office and retail leases during the quarter, reflecting both strong tenant demand and limited availability for our premium space. Our core office and retail portfolio are 94% and 97% leased, respectively. For the limited remaining space we have, we are actively engaged in leasing discussions at rents significantly above expiring levels.

Earnings from the monetization of mature assets were $132 million ($0.08/share) for the quarter and听$554 million ($0.35/share) over the LTM.

• To date this year, we sold over $55 billion of asset sales across the business, including over $35 billion since last quarter. Substantially all sales were completed at or above our carrying values, monetizing significant value for our clients at attractive returns.
• Monetization activity since last quarter included $12 billion of real estate assets, including the single largest real estate transaction in Australia ever, approximately $9 billion of infrastructure assets, including one of the U.K.鈥檚 largest port businesses, nearly $6 billion of renewable assets reflecting sustained global demand for renewables, and approximately $9 billion in other diversified assets across our operating businesses.
• We realized $129 million of carried interest into income as a result of this activity, and importantly moved a number of our funds closer to carried interest realization.
• Total accumulated unrealized carried interest was $11.3 billion at quarter end, net of $487 million realized into income over the LTM. As we continue to see momentum in transaction activity, we expect to realize significant carried interest into income over the next few years.

We ended the quarter with a record $177 billion of capital available to deploy into new investments.

• We have record deployable capital of $177 billion, which includes $71 billion of cash, financial assets and undrawn credit lines at the Corporation, our affiliates and our wealth solutions business.
• Our balance sheet remains conservatively capitalized. Our corporate debt at the Corporation has a weighted-average term of 14 years, and today, we have no maturities through the end of 2025.
• We maintained strong access to the capital markets and executed $94 billion of financings so far this year, including $53 billion of financings this quarter, further bolstering our capital structure and liquidity. A few recent highlights include:
  • Brookfield Renewable Partners issued C$250 million of 30-year notes, Brookfield Infrastructure Partners issued $250 million of 30-year subordinated notes and Brookfield Asset Management completed its inaugural offering and issued $750 million of 10-year senior notes. All three offerings were met with strong investor demand reflecting market confidence in each business.
  • In our renewable power and transition business, we secured 鈧�6.3 billion in project financing for our offshore wind development in Poland, our largest project financing done to date within this business.
  • In our private equity business, we raised approximately $2.1 billion of debt for our modular leasing services platform, completed a refinancing for $1.2 billion at our advanced energy storage business, and completed a $900 million repricing for our electric heat tracing manufacturer business.
  • In real estate, we successfully refinanced a $2.4 billion five-year loan for the world鈥檚 largest open- air shopping center in the U.S., and refinanced a hotel in downtown Toronto for C$425 million, fully repatriating all our equity and more, while retaining 100% ownership of the asset. We also issued 鈧�300 million of high-yield bonds through our German office REIT, reflecting increasing lender appetite for office financings.

• During the quarter, we returned $432 million of capital to our shareholders via regular dividends and share repurchases. Since last quarter, we repurchased over $300 million of Class A shares in the open market at an average price of $49.03, which represents a 52% discount to our view of intrinsic value at quarter end of $101.52.
  

Three-for-Two Stock Split

The Board of Directors approved a three-for-two stock split of the outstanding Brookfield Corporation Class A Limited Voting Shares (鈥淐lass A Shares鈥�). Brookfield Corporation is undertaking the stock split to ensure its shares remain accessible to individual shareholders and to improve the liquidity of the shares. Importantly, the stock split is not dilutive to shareholders.

The stock split will be implemented by way of a stock dividend which will be payable on October 9, 2025, to shareholders of record at the close of business on October 3, 2025. Each shareholder will receive one-half of a Class A Share for each Brookfield Corporation Class A and Class B Limited Voting Share held by them (i.e. one additional share for every two shares held). Fractional shares will be paid in cash based on the closing price of the Class A Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange on October 3, 2025.

From market open on Friday, October 3, 2025 and until market close on Thursday, October 9, 2025, both trading days inclusive, the Class A Shares will trade on a due bill basis on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange. During this due bill trading period, the Class A Shares will carry the right to receive the additional shares to be issued in connection with the stock dividend. From market open on Friday, October 10, 2025, the post-split (ex-dividend) Class A Shares will commence trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange.

Based on the manner in which the stock split will be implemented, no Canadian or U.S. federal income tax is expected to be payable by shareholders, except in the case of cash received in lieu of fractional shares.

Brookfield Wealth Solutions announced a concurrent three-for-two split of its class A exchangeable shares in order to maintain their economic equivalence to Brookfield Corporation鈥檚 Class A Shares.

Regular Dividend Declaration

The Board declared a quarterly dividend for Brookfield Corporation of $0.09 per share, payable on September 29, 2025 to shareholders of record as at the close of business on September 12, 2025. The first dividend payable post-split will occur on December 31, 2025, subject to Board approval. The Board also declared the regular monthly and quarterly dividends on our preferred shares.

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 (鈥淒E鈥�). 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.

AG真人官方ized carried interest and realized disposition gains are further described below:

• AG真人官方ized Carried Interest represents our contractual share of investment gains generated within a private fund after achieving our clients鈥� minimum return requirements. AG真人官方ized carried interest is determined on third-party capital that is no longer subject to future investment performance.
• AG真人官方ized 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鈥檚 business. AG真人官方ized 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鈥檚 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 (鈥�Operating FFO鈥�). We define Operating FFO as the company鈥檚 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 (鈥淣OI鈥�), 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 .
