All financial amounts in Canadian dollars as at December 31, 2024, unless stated otherwise.

CI Financial Corp . (“CI”) (TSX: CIX) today released financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2024.

Financial highlights

CI's results for the quarter on an IFRS basis reflect accounting charges from the take-private transaction, including: (a) the revaluation of the preferred share liability as a result of its expected redemption sooner than originally estimated; (b) higher stock-based compensation as a result of the acceleration of outstanding equity awards upon close of the transaction; and (c) deal-related costs. In addition, currency-related charges increased due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar versus the Canadian dollar.

Fourth quarter net loss attributable to shareholders was $405.4 million compared to a net loss of $27.6 million in the third quarter of 2024. Excluding non-operating items, adjusted net income attributable to shareholders ¹ was $153.9 million in the fourth quarter, up 9.0% from the previous quarter.

Fourth quarter total net revenues were $677.8 million, down from $785.4 million in the third quarter of 2024. Excluding non-operating items, adjusted total net revenues ¹ were $799.5 million, up 5.9% from $754.9 million due to the strength of capital markets, performance fees earned in the Asset Management segment and recent acquisitions at Corient.

Fourth quarter total expenses increased to $1,046.7 million from $778.1 million in the third quarter of 2024. Excluding non-operating items, adjusted total expenses ¹ were $534.0 million, up 4.1% from $513.2 million in the previous quarter, primarily due to higher SG&A expenses and increased advisor and dealer fees.

Capital allocation

In the fourth quarter of 2024, CI paid $28.7 million in dividends at a rate of $0.20 per share. CI also paid a quarterly dividend of $0.20 per share on January 15, 2025 to shareholders of record as of December 31, 2024.

Under a substantial issuer bid that expired on October 3, 2024, CI purchased for cancellation 2,157,201 common shares at a purchase price of $18.25 per share, for an aggregate price of approximately $39.4 million. Under its Normal Course Issuer Bid and Automatic Securities Purchase Plan, CI repurchased 1,217,437 shares during the quarter at a cost of $25.0 million, for an average cost of $20.50 per share.

Mubadala Capital transaction

As previously announced, CI has entered into a definitive agreement with an affiliate of Mubadala Capital to take CI private by way of a plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), which was overwhelmingly approved by CI shareholders on February 12, 2025, and approved by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) on February 18, 2025.

As a result of the pending transaction, CI will not be holding a conference call to discuss its earnings, nor does CI intend to provide further monthly updates of its asset levels, unless the definitive agreement is terminated.

NON-IFRS MEASURES

In an effort to provide additional information regarding our results as determined by IFRS, we also disclose certain non-IFRS information which we believe provides useful and meaningful information. Our management reviews these non-IFRS financial measurements when evaluating our financial performance and results of operations; therefore, we believe it is useful to provide information with respect to these non-IFRS measurements so as to share this perspective of management. Non-IFRS measurements do not have any standardized meaning, do not replace nor are superior to IFRS financial measurements and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The non-IFRS financial measurements include:

Adjusted net income and adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share
Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted net revenue
Free cash flow
Net debt.

These non-IFRS financial measurements exclude the following revenues and expenses which we believe allows investors a consistent way to analyze our financial performance, allows for better analysis of core operating income and business trends and permits comparisons of companies within the industry, normalizing for different financing methods and levels of taxation:

Costs related to our acquisitions, including:
- amortization of intangible assets
- change in fair value of contingent consideration
- related advisory and legal fees
- contingent consideration and consideration for strategic recruitment classified as compensation per IFRS
- Interest expense associated with redeemable preferred shares issued in connection with acquisitions

Integration-related costs associated with our U.S. Wealth segment, including:
- organizational expenses for the establishment of Corient
- restructuring and severance-related charges
- rebranding efforts
- technology, operations and real estate related integration costs

Accounting treatment of Corient and CIPW Canada redeemable units including:
- compensation expenses associated with Corient and CIPW Canada redeemable units
- non-cash charges related to guarantees for Corient and CIPW Canada related loans

Gains or losses related to foreign currency fluctuations
Legal provisions for a class action related to market timing and others
Certain realized and unrealized gains or losses in assets and investments
Costs related to issuing or retiring debt obligations and any related gains or losses
Unusual trading or bad debt write-off charges
Preparation costs for the planned initial public offering of our U.S. Wealth business or sale to a group of institutional investors
Pass-through carried interest revenue and expense as a result of CI being deemed the principal to a revenue arrangement but where the economics are directly related to an entity in which CI has no interest.
Changes in fair value for preferred shares issued to a group of institutional investors
Costs related to the Mubadala privatization offer, including third-party costs and additional share-based compensation expenses directly attributable to the transaction.

Further explanations of these Non-IFRS measures can be found in the “Non-IFRS Measures” section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis dated February 28, 2025 available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca or at www.cifinancial.com .
