Jupiter Fund Management (LON:JUP) Issues Earnings Results

Jupiter Fund Management (LON:JUP) issued its quarterly earnings results on Thursday. The company reported GBX 19.40 earnings per share for the quarter, Digital Look Earnings reports. Jupiter Fund Management had a negative return on equity of 1.13% and a negative net margin of 2.34%.

Here are the key takeaways from Jupiter Fund Management’s conference call:

• Investment performance has materially improved across time horizons, with 84% of AUM outperforming over 1 year, 68% over 3 years, and large portions of AUM in the top quartile, supporting future client demand.
• Flows and AUM have recovered — Jupiter recorded a record £16.9bn of gross flows, £1.3bn of net inflows (first since 2017), and year‑end AUM rose to £54bn (average AUM £48bn in 2025).
• Revenue and margin pressures persist — net management fee revenue fell to £311m, fee margin eased to ~65bp (guidance ~63bp for 2026 excluding CCLA), and the cost‑income ratio remains elevated at 82% versus the 70% target.
• Management delivered cost savings ahead of plan and is returning capital — non‑comp savings beat guidance (~£11m), there is a minimum £15m cost saving target plus CCLA synergies, and shareholders get a combined distribution including a £30m buyback and a £5.7p special dividend.
• The CCLA acquisition (adds ~£15bn AUM and a new nonprofit client channel) is strategic but brings short‑term integration costs (~£17m cash) and management expects possible minor outflows in 2026 while targeting £16m run‑rate synergies by end‑2027.
