NOTE 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

As used in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “Company,” “Victory,” or in the first-person notations of “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Victory Capital Holdings, Inc. along with its wholly-owned subsidiaries.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements. As such, the information included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the "2025 Annual Report"). Certain prior period amounts have been revised to conform to the current period presentation. Such changes were made for clarity and comparability and had no effect on previously reported results of operations or financial position.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the operations of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, after elimination of all intercompany balances and transactions. Our involvement with non-consolidated variable interest entities (“VIEs”) includes sponsored investment funds.

For further discussion regarding VIEs, refer to Note 2, Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements included in our 2025 Annual Report.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and the notes. Actual results may ultimately differ materially from those estimates.

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies from our 2025 Annual Report.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Reporting Comprehensive Income: In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ("DISE"). This ASU does not change or remove current expense presentation requirements within the Consolidated Statements of Operations. However, the amendments require disclosure, on an annual and interim basis, of disaggregated information about certain income statement expense line items within the notes to the consolidated financial statements. DISE is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that this ASU will have on the Company's consolidated financial statement disclosures.

Internal-Use Software: In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software ("ASU 2025-06"). ASU 2025-06 modernizes the guidance on accounting for internal-use software costs by removing references to traditional development project stages and instead requiring capitalization when management commits to funding and it is probable the project will be completed. ASU 2025-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2025-06 will have on the Company's consolidated financial statement disclosures.

No other recently adopted or issued accounting standards had, or will have, a material impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2. REVENUE RECOGNITION

In accordance with the revenue recognition standard requirements, the following table disaggregates our revenue by type and product:

The following table presents balances of receivables:

Revenue

The Company’s revenue includes fees earned from providing;

•

investment management services,

•

fund administration services,

•

fund transfer agent services, and

•

fund distribution services.

Revenueis recognized for each distinct performance obligation identified in customer contracts when the performance obligation has been satisfied by transferring services to a customer either over time or at the point in time when the customer obtains control of the service. Revenue is recognized in the amount of variable or fixed consideration allocated to the satisfied performance obligation that Victory expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring services to a customer. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price only when it is probable that a significant reversal of such revenue will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.

NOTE 3. ACQUISITIONS

Pioneer Investments

On April 1, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of Amundi Asset Management S.A.S ("Amundi")'s U.S. business ("Amundi US") and reintroduced the brand Pioneer Investments ("Pioneer" or "Pioneer Investments") for the acquired business and investment products ("Amundi Transaction"). Pioneer Investments is the Company's largest investment franchise, and the transaction meaningfully enhanced the Company's scale, expanded its global client base, and further diversified its investment capabilities.

In exchange for the contribution of all the shares of the Amundi US to the Company, the Company issued to Amundi (a)3,293,471 newly issued shares of Common stock, representing 4.9% of the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common stock after giving effect to such issuance, and (b)19,698,274 newly issued shares of Preferred stock, which, together with the shares of Common stock issued to Amundi represented in the aggregate 26.1% of the Company’s fully diluted shares after giving effect to such share issuances. Total purchase price consideration was approximately $1,326 million, settled entirely in Company shares. For further detail on the transaction consideration, refer to Note 4 in the Company's 2025 Annual Report.

Purchase Price Allocation

The Company accounted for the acquisition in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, Business Combinations, allocating the purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values at the acquisition date. The purchase price allocation was finalized during the first quarter of 2026 within the one-year measurement period prescribed by ASC 805.

Financial Results

Revenue recognized by Pioneer Investments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 was as follows:

Net income attributable to Pioneer Investments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 is impractical to determine as the Company does not prepare discrete financial information at the franchise level.

The Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 include operating results of the Amundi US acquired company. The following unaudited pro forma figures for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 give effect to the acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2025 and combines the financial results of the Company and Amundi US after adjusting primarily for amortization of intangible assets and additional fixed asset depreciation that would have been expensed assuming the fair value adjustments had been applied on January 1, 2025, net of any tax impact. This unaudited information is for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as indicative of historical results that would have been obtained if the acquisition had occurred on that date, nor of the results that may be obtained in the future.

Pending Acquisition of First Eagle Investments

On August 25, 2026, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) to acquire GC Ferry Holdings, Inc. (“First Eagle”) from GC Ferry Parent, L.P. through a two-step merger, after which First Eagle will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “First Eagle Transaction”). Consideration payable at closing will consist of a combination of cash, newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock, and newly issued shares of a new series of the Company’s non-voting convertible preferred stock. In connection with the Merger Agreement, the Company entered into a debt commitment letter with certain financial institutions providing for financing to fund the cash portion of the consideration and related fees and expenses. The First Eagle Transaction is expected to close by the end of the first quarter of 2027 subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by the Company’s stockholders, regulatory approvals, and receipt of required client consents.

Acquisition-related and other costs

Acquisition-related costs include legal fees, advisory services, mutual fund proxy voting costs and other one-time expenses related to business combinations. The Company recognized $15.5 million and $22.5 million of these costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively, and $0.4 million and $34.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. These amounts are included in acquisition-related costs in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred $0.1 million and $1.4 million, respectively, of costs directly associated with the issuance of equity in connection with acquisitions. These costs include fees paid to attorneys, accountants, printers and other third parties and are recorded in additional paid-in capital in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTE 4. Restructuring and Integration Costs

In connection with business combinations, asset purchases and changes in business strategy, the Company incurs costs integrating investment platforms, products and personnel into existing systems, processes and service provider arrangements and restructuring the business to capture operating expense synergies.

The following table presents a rollforward of restructuring and integration liabilities, which as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTE 5. SEGMENT REPORTING

ASU 2023-07, which is based on a management approach to segment reporting, establishes requirements to report segment revenue and significant expenses reported in net income, the primary measurement used by our Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") in evaluating segment performance.

The Company provides investment management services and products to institutional, intermediary, retirement platforms and individual investors. The presentation of financial results asone reportable segment is consistent with the way discrete financial information is available that is regularly provided to our Chief Executive Officer, the CODM. When making decisions about allocating resources, assessing performance, and understanding how our long-term organic revenue growth is driven by investment decisions our CODM uses net income and considers the impact on consolidated, entity-wide performance and financial results.

Significant segment expenses are presented in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Additional disaggregated significant segment expenses that are not separately presented in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations are presented below:

(1)

Represents sales-based commissions paid to our distribution teams. Sales-based compensation varies based on gross and net client cash flows and revenue earned on sales.

(2)

Equity awards typically vest over several years based on service and the achievement of specific business and financial targets. The value of the equity awards is recognized as compensation expense over the vesting period.

NOTE 6. Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 differs from the United States federal statutory rate primarily due to state and local income taxes, excess tax benefits on share-based compensation and non-deductible expenses.

For the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the provision for income taxes was $32.6 million and $32.7 million, or 26.3% and 25.3%, of pre-tax income, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the provision for income taxes was $116.2 million and $79.4 million, or 25.3% and 26.8% of pre-tax income, respectively.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was higher than the effective tax rate for the same period in 2025 primarily due to an increase in non-deductible expenses and the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was lower due to increased excess tax benefits on share-based compensation.

No valuation allowance was recorded for deferred tax assets in the period ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

NOTE 7. Investments

As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had investments in proprietary funds and deferred compensation plan investments. Investments in proprietary funds consist primarily of seed capital investments in certain Victory Funds. Deferred compensation plan investments include investments in affiliated and third party mutual funds held in a rabbi trust under a deferred compensation plan.

The following table presents the fair value of the Company's investments:

Unrealized and realized gains and losses on investments in proprietary funds and deferred compensation plan investments are recorded in earnings as interest income and other income (expense).

The following table presents theunrealized gains/(losses) recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:

NOTE 8. Fair Value Measurements

The Company determines the fair value of certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities. Fair value is determined based on the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value determinations utilize a valuation hierarchy based upon the transparency of inputs used in the valuation of an asset or liability.

Classification within the fair value hierarchy contains three levels:

•

Level 1—Valuation inputs are unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

•

Level 2—Valuation inputs are quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, quoted market prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and other observable inputs directly or indirectly related to the asset or liability being measured.

•

Level 3—Valuation inputs are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. These inputs reflect management's own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The following table presents assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Level 1 assets consist of money market funds and open-end mutual funds. The fair values for these assets are determined utilizing quoted market prices for identical assets.

There wereno transfers between any of the Level 1, 2 and 3 categories in the fair value measurement hierarchy from December 31, 2025 to September 30, 2026. The Company recognizes transfers at the end of the reporting period.

The net carrying value of accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value due to the short‑term nature of these assets and liabilities. The fair value of our long-term debt as of September 30, 2026 is considered to be its carrying value as the interest rate on the bank debt is variable and approximates current market rates. As a result, Level 2 inputs are utilized to determine the fair value of our long‑term debt.

Contingent payment arrangements

WestEnd

Contingent consideration arrangements represent the WestEnd earn-out payment liability which is included in consideration payable for acquisition of business in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Under the terms of the WestEnd purchase agreement, a maximum of $320.0 million ($80.0 million per year) of contingent payments is payable to sellers. Contingent earn-out payments are based on net revenue of the WestEnd business during each of the first four years following the close of the acquisition, subject to certain “catch-up” provisions over afive and one-half year period following the close of the acquisition.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company paid $39.9 million in cash to sellers for the third earn-out period. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration payable to the sellers was $53.8 million as of September 30, 2026 and $87.6 million as of December 31, 2025.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the change in the liability was an increase of $0.6 million and $6.1 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the change in liability was an increase of $3.8 million and $8.3 million, respectively. The impact of decreasing or increasing the valuation of the contingent consideration liability is recorded in change in value of consideration payable for acquisition of business in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The estimated fair value for contingent consideration payable to sellers is estimated using the real options method. WestEnd net revenue growth is simulated in a risk-neutral framework to calculate expected probability-weighted earn out payments, which are then discounted from the expected payment dates at the relevant cost of debt. Significant assumptions and inputs include the WestEnd net revenue projected annual growth rate, the market price of risk, which adjusts the projected revenue growth rate to a risk-neutral expected growth rate, revenue volatility and discount rate. The market price of risk and revenue volatility are based on data for comparable companies. As the contingent consideration represents a subordinate, unsecured claim of the Company, the Company assesses a discount rate which incorporates adjustments for credit risk and the subordination of the contingent consideration

Significant inputs to the valuation of contingent consideration payable to sellers as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are as follows and are approximate values:

The following table presents the balance of the contingent consideration arrangement liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2026:

New Energy Capital

Under the terms of the purchase agreement for New Energy Capital Partners ("NEC"), which closed during 2021, the Company will pay up to an additional $35.0 million in cash based on net revenue growth over asix-year periodon the private, closed-end alternative investment funds managed by the NEC franchise ("NEC Funds"). The maximum amount of contingent payments, less any contingent payments previously paid, is due upon the occurrence of certain specified events within a five year period following the Start Date.

The Company determined that substantially all of the contingent payments payable per the NEC purchase agreement represent compensation for post-closing services. The Company records compensation expense over the estimated service period in an amount equal to the total contingent payments currently forecasted to be paid.

As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company determined that the contingent payments are no longer probable of occurring and the liability for NEC contingent payments is zero.

NOTE 10. Debt

The following table presents the components of long-term debt in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 under the Company's credit agreement ("2019 Credit Agreement").

The 2019 Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that affect, among other things, the ability of the first lien leverage ratio, measured as of the last day of each fiscal quarter on which outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility exceed 35.0% of the commitments thereunder (excluding certain letters of credit), of no greater than 4.00 to 1.00. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there wereno outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility and the Company was in compliance with its financial performance covenant.

Debt modifications and repayments

On September 23, 2025, pursuant to the Sixth Amendment of the 2019 Credit Agreement, the Company extended the maturity date of the first lien revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Facility") from March 31, 2026 to September 23, 2030 and decreased the drawn interest rate margin by 0.25% per annum. The Company also refinanced its Existing Term Loans with the Repriced Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $985 million.

On May 18, 2026, pursuant to the Seventh Amendment of the 2019 Credit Agreement, the Company refinanced its existing term loans (the "Existing Term Loans") with repriced term loans (the "Repriced Term Loans") which will bear interest at an annual rate equal to, at the option of the Company, either SOFR plus a margin of 1.75% or an alternate base rate plus a margin of 0.75%.

The Company elects to use three-month Term SOFR plus a margin of 1.75% required by the 2019 Credit Agreement to pay interest on its debt.

Pursuant to ASC 470-50, Debt - Modifications and Extinguishments, the Company evaluated the Repriced Term Loans on a lender-by-lender basis and accounted accordingly for debt extinguishment costs and debt modification costs (for the portion of the transaction that did not meet the accounting criteria for debt extinguishment). On the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the financing cash outflows and inflows associated with each amendment were determined on a lender-by-lender basis and repayments during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 totaled $314.0 million and $235.8 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company incurred costs of $2.4 million related to the Seventh Amendment, of which $2.0 million was recorded as a loss on debt extinguishment and $0.4 million was recognized as general and administrative expense in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. During the three and nine months ended September 2025, the Company incurred costs of $2.2 million related to the Sixth Amendment, of which $1.6 million was recorded in general and administrative expense and $0.6 million was recognized as a loss on debt extinguishment in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

There wereno financing cash outflows or inflows or costs incurred associated with this transaction during the three months ended September 30, 2026.

The Company repaid an additional $2.5 million and $7.4 million of the outstanding term loans under the 2019 Credit Agreement during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively.

Interest expense and other financing costs

The following table presents the components of interest expense and other financing costs on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the periods ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

NOTE 11. Share‑Based Compensation

Equity Incentive Plans

For a full description of the Company’s share-based compensation plans, refer to Note 15 of the Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025 included in the Company’s 2025 Annual Report. As of September 30, 2026,1.4 million shares of Common Stock remained available for issuance under the Company's Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”).

Restricted Stock Awards

Restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) entitle the holder to receive shares of the Company’s common stock as the awards vest. Grants of RSAs can be classified as service-based, performance-based, or market-based, depending on the vesting criteria of the award. RSA activity for service-based RSAs for the nine months ended September, 30 2026 is as follows:

Performance-Based Restricted Stock Award

As previously disclosed in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2026, the Board of Directors approved a one-time grant of 1.3 million performance-based shares of restricted stock ("Performance Shares" or "PRSAs") to key executives under the 2018 Plan. The PRSAs vest upon achievement of four absolute stock price hurdles during aseven-year measurement period commencing on the grant date, subject to continued employment through the applicable vesting date. A hurdle is deemed achieved when the average closing trading price equals or exceeds the applicable threshold for five consecutive trading days. Vested shares are subject to a one-year post-vesting holding requirement, and any shares that do not vest during the measurement period or prior to termination of employment will be forfeited.

The grant-date fair value of $60.8 million was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model, with the total shares allocated equally across four tranches. A Monte Carlo simulation model requires inputs such as the risk-free interest rate, expected volatility, stock price, valuation date, and expected dividend yield. Expected volatility was estimated based on the historical volatility of the Company's common stock. The grant-date fair value also reflects a discount for post-vesting restrictions, which was measured using a market-based valuation model. Compensation expense for each tranche is recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective derived service period, which ranges from 0.32 years to 2.54 years, with no reversal if the market condition is not satisfied. Any remaining unrecognized expense is recognized immediately upon achievement of the applicable hurdle. During the three months ended September 30, 2026, the first and second stock price hurdles were achieved, resulting in the vesting of 0.7 million Performance Shares and the accelerated recognition of $22.2 million of compensation expense related to these tranches.

Share-based Compensation Expense

Share-based compensation expense is included within personnel compensation and benefits in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The following table summarizes share-based compensation expense, related tax benefits, and the total fair value of restricted share awards vested.

As of September 30, 2026, the Company expects to recognize total share-based compensation expense of $76.9 million.

Shares Withheld for net settlement of employee equity awards

Shares of Common Stock are available for issuance under the 2018 Plan as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s board of directors. Shares underlying awards that are settled in cash, expire or are canceled, forfeited or otherwise terminated without delivery to a participant will again be available for issuance under the 2018 Plan. In addition, shares withheld or surrendered in connection with the payment of an exercise price of an award or to satisfy tax withholding will again be available for issuance under the 2018 Plan.

The following table presents both share and dollar value information about shares withheld for net settlement of employee equity awards:

NOTE 12. Earnings Per Share

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share from net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:

(1)

Under the two-class method, total dividends provided to and undistributed earnings allocated to the preferred stockholders are subtracted from net income in determining income attributable to common stockholders.

(2)

This amount reflects the impact of reversing undistributed earnings allocated to preferred stockholders in the basic earnings per share calculation and reallocating undistributed earnings to preferred stockholders and common stockholders including the impact of dilutive instruments.

Outstanding instruments excluded from the computation of weighted average shares for diluted earnings per share because the effect would be anti-dilutive were de minimis for the periods ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. Holders of non-vested share-based compensation awards do not have rights to receive nonforfeitable dividends on the shares covered by the awards.

NOTE 13. DERIVATIVES

Interest Rate Swaps

In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company monetized the gain on the floating-to-fixed interest rate swap transaction (“Swap”) entered into in 2020 to effectively fix the interest rate on $450 million of its outstanding Term Loan through the Term Loan maturity date of July 1, 2026.

The deferred gain on the termination of the Swap is being amortized on a straight-line basis through September 23, 2032 and is included in interest expense and other financing costs on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

For the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded $0.4 million and $4.5 million, in amortization of deferred gain on Swap monetization. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded $2.9 million and $12.7 million in amortization of deferred gain on Swap monetization.

As and September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the unamortized deferred gain on Swap monetization was $8.8 million and $11.7 million, respectively, before tax.

The following tables summarize the classification of the Swap in our unaudited condensed financial statements (in thousands):

NOTE 14. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The following table presents changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) by component for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

(1)

Reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to cash flow hedges are recorded in interest expense and other financing costs.

(2)

On October 30, 2023, the Company terminated the Swap. The termination resulted in a $44.4 million deferred gain recorded in AOCI, before tax, which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the hedged debt (through September 23, 2032). Refer to Note 13, Derivatives, for further information on the monetization of the interest rate swap gain.

NOTE 15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Quarterly Cash Dividends

On November 4, 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.50 per share. The dividend is payable on December 23, 2026, to shareholders of record on December 10, 2026.
