Sprott (NYSE:SII) Announces Quarterly Earnings Results

Sprott (NYSE:SII) issued its quarterly earnings data on Thursday. The company reported $1.11 earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter, topping the consensus estimate of $0.53 by $0.58, Zacks reports. Sprott had a net margin of 23.26% and a return on equity of 15.01%. The firm had revenue of $61.70 million during the quarter, compared to the consensus estimate of $69.12 million.

Here are the key takeaways from Sprott’s conference call:

• Sprott reported rapid asset growth — AUM finished 2025 at $59.6 billion (up $28.1 billion YoY) and rose to $70.1 billion as of Feb 13, 2026, driven by market appreciation and strong inflows.
• Quarterly net income and profitability improved materially — Q4 net income was $28.7 million (vs. $11.7M year-ago) and adjusted EBITDA jumped 88% to $42 million, driven by precious-metals trust inflows, market gains and crystallized performance fees.
• ETFs and physical trusts are a clear growth engine — physical trusts reached $47 billion (97% gain), ETF AUM rose ~94% and is approaching $7 billion, SLVR surpassed $1B, and a US listing for the first physical copper trust is expected in early Q2.
• A change to a cash-settled stock plan under IFRS 2 increased stock‑based compensation volatility (mark-to-market and graded vesting), nearly doubling the RSU expense subject to the accounting methodology and likely keeping S&C expense elevated into H1 2026.
• Managed-equity and private strategies delivered strong performance and episodic carried‑interest gains, but private lending funds are in a transition/harvest phase and performance fees are inherently episodic — fundraising and evergreen product plans are under active consideration.
