Expectations

Two Questions That Matter

The print will turn on these two things.

What will the EPS be for Q2-2026?

EPS is a critical measure of profitability, and any significant deviation from expectations could impact investor sentiment.

How much growth in AUM can we expect this quarter?

AUM growth is vital for future revenue, and clarity on this will help investors gauge the company's market position.

Edge

What the Street Is Missing

Why consensus could be wrong

The Street may underestimate Victory's ability to attract new assets, as recent trends in the asset management sector suggest a shift towards firms with strong performance records.

Supporting Evidence

Victory has consistently beaten EPS estimates, indicating strong operational management.

The options market is pricing in a larger move than historical averages, suggesting expectations may be overly conservative.

Recent trends in net inflows suggest a potential for stronger-than-expected AUM growth.

Key Risk

If AUM growth exceeds expectations, it could significantly shift market sentiment in favor of Victory.

Edge

Thesis-Break Levels

Pre-commit to what would confirm each case.

The market is debating whether Victory Capital can maintain its strong earnings trajectory amidst competitive pressures.

Bull Confirmed If

An EPS of $1.85 or higher would confirm strong operational performance and investor confidence.

Bear Confirmed If

An EPS below $1.70 would raise concerns about profitability and growth prospects.
