2. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and in the opinion of management reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The financial results of Ceres and Atlantic House are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since their acquisition dates, October 1, 2025 and May 1, 2026, respectively (See Note 3).
Consolidation
The Company consolidates entities in which it has a controlling financial interest. The Company determines whether it has a controlling financial interest in an entity by first evaluating whether the entity is a voting interest entity (“VOE”) or a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The usual condition for a controlling financial interest in a VOE is ownership of a majority voting interest. If the Company has a majority voting interest in a VOE, the entity is consolidated. The Company has a controlling financial interest in a VIE when the Company has a variable interest that provides it with (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
| 12 |
The Company reassesses its evaluation of whether an entity is a VOE or VIE when certain reconsideration events occur.
Segment and Geographic Information
The Company, through its subsidiaries in the U.S. and Europe, is a global financial innovator, offering a diverse suite of ETPs, models and solutions, private market investments and digital asset-related products.
Foreign Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar are translated based on the end of period exchange rates from local currency to U.S. dollars. Results of operations are translated at the average exchange rates in effect during the period. The impact of the foreign currency translation adjustment is included in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income as a component of other comprehensive (loss)/income.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet dates and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
Advisory Fees
The Company earns a significant portion of its revenues in the form of advisory fees from its ETPs and recognizes this revenue over time, as the performance obligation is satisfied. Advisory fees are based on a percentage of the ETPs’ average daily net assets. Progress is measured using the practical expedient under the output method resulting in the recognition of revenue in the amount for which the Company has a right to invoice.
Management and Performance Fees - Ceres
The Company earns management fees in exchange for Ceres providing investment advisory and other management services to the Ceres Funds. Management fees are generally calculated as a stated percentage of members’ capital account balances as of the last day of each calendar quarter, subject to adjustment for any contractual waivers as well as contributions and redemptions arising in any particular quarter. Management fees are recognized as revenue over time, as the performance obligation is satisfied.
Performance fees represent variable consideration and are earned based on a specified percentage of the Ceres Funds’ net profits, subject to contractual fee waivers, high-water marks and loss recovery requirements. Performance fees are earned only after members have recovered prior losses and applicable thresholds have been met. Performance fee revenues are recognized when it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenues recognized will not occur, which generally occurs upon the determination of fund profits that are no longer subject to claw back or reversal under the governing agreements.
Other Revenues
Other revenues include amounts earned from swap providers associated with certain of the Company’s European-listed ETPs, which are generally based on a percentage of the ETPs’ average daily net assets, and transaction-based income associated with flows into certain European-listed ETPs. Also included in other revenues are amounts the Company earns from Atlantic House’s managed models business, generally based on a percentage of assets under advisement, as well as structuring fees for bespoke investment solutions.
Revenue is recognized as the related services are performed. Asset-based fees are recognized over time, based on assets under advisement or net assets. Transaction-based revenues are recognized as the underlying transactions occur, while structuring fees are recognized upon issuance of the related structured product, at which point the Company’s performance obligation has been satisfied. Amounts are generally invoiced monthly or quarterly in arrears. The Company applies the practical expedient under the output method, recognizing revenue in the amount to which it has the right to invoice, as this corresponds directly with the value transferred to the client. There is no significant judgment in determining the transaction price, and the related revenues are not subject to significant reversal.
Marketing and Advertising
Marketing and advertising costs, including media advertising and production costs, are expensed when incurred.

Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization is provided for using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows:
| Equipment | ||
| Internally-developed software |
The assets listed above are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. See Note 21 for estimated useful lives of intangible assets.
Stock-Based Awards
Accounting for stock-based compensation requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all equity awards based on estimated fair values. Stock-based compensation is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the award and is amortized over the relevant service period. Forfeitures are recognized when they occur.
Third-Party Distribution Fees
The Company pays a percentage of its advisory fee revenues based on incremental growth in assets under management (“AUM”), subject to caps or minimums, to marketing agents to sell WisdomTree ETPs and for including WisdomTree ETPs on third-party customer platforms and recognizes these expenses as incurred.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are customer and other obligations due under normal trade terms. The Company measures credit losses, if any, by applying historical loss rates, adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts to amounts outstanding using the aging method.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company performs a review for the impairment of long-lived assets when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the assets are less than their carrying amounts or when other events occur which may indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
Financial Instruments Owned (at Fair Value)
Financial instruments owned are classified as trading and are recorded on the trade date and measured at fair value. Changes in fair value are reported in other income/(expenses) in the period the change occurs.
Investments
The Company accounts for equity investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value under the measurement alternative prescribed in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 321, Investments – Equity Securities (“ASC 321”), to the extent such investments are not subject to consolidation or the equity method. Under the measurement alternative, these financial instruments are carried at cost, less any impairment (assessed quarterly), plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer. In addition, income is recognized when dividends are received only to the extent they are distributed from net accumulated earnings of the investee. Otherwise, such distributions are considered returns of investment and are recorded as a reduction of the cost of the investment.
Investments in debt instruments are accounted for at fair value, with changes in fair value reported in other income/(expenses).
Goodwill
Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair values of the identifiable net assets at the acquisition date. The Company tests goodwill for impairment at least annually and at the time of a triggering event requiring re-evaluation, if one were to occur. Goodwill is considered impaired when the estimated fair value of the reporting unit that was allocated the goodwill is less than its carrying value. If the estimated fair value of such reporting unit is less than its carrying value, goodwill impairment is recognized based on that difference, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. A reporting unit is an operating segment or a component of an operating segment provided that the component constitutes a business for which discrete financial information is available and management regularly reviews the operating results of that component.
The Company tests goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level and has determined that it has a single reporting unit, consistent with its single operating segment. Goodwill is assessed for impairment annually on November 30th. When performing its goodwill impairment test, the Company considers a qualitative assessment, when appropriate, and a quantitative assessment using the market approach and its market capitalization when determining the fair value of the reporting unit.
| 14 |
Intangible Assets
Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually and are also reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are impaired if their estimated fair values are less than their carrying values.
Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful life, which is the period over which the assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the future cash flows of the Company. These intangible assets are tested for impairment at the time of a triggering event, if one were to occur. Finite-lived intangible assets may be impaired when the estimated undiscounted future cash flows generated from the assets are less than their carrying amounts.
The Company may rely on a qualitative assessment when performing its intangible asset impairment test. Otherwise, the impairment evaluation is performed at the lowest level of reasonably identifiable cash flows independent of other assets. The annual impairment testing date for all of the Company’s intangible assets is November 30th.
Software Development Costs
Software development costs incurred after the preliminary project stage is complete are capitalized if it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used as intended. Capitalized costs consist of employee compensation costs and fees paid to third parties who are directly involved in the application development efforts and are included in intangible assets, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Such costs are amortized over the estimated useful life of the software on a straight-line basis and are included in depreciation and amortization in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Once the application development stage is complete, additional costs are expensed as incurred.
Leases
The Company accounts for its lease obligations in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), which requires the recognition of both (i) a lease liability equal to the present value of the remaining lease payments and (ii) an offsetting right-of-use asset. The remaining lease payments are discounted using the rate implicit in the lease, if known, or otherwise the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. After lease commencement, right-of-use assets are assessed for impairment and otherwise are amortized over the remaining lease term on a straight-line basis. These recognition requirements are not applied to short-term leases, which are those with a lease term of 12 months or less. Instead, lease payments associated with short-term leases are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
ASC 842 also provides a practical expedient which allows for consideration in a contract to be accounted for as a single lease component rather than allocated between lease and non-lease components. The Company has elected to apply this practical expedient to all lease contracts, where applicable.
Convertible Notes
Convertible notes are carried at amortized cost, net of issuance costs. The Company accounts for convertible instruments as a single liability (applicable to the convertible notes) or equity with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features unless the conversion feature meets the criteria for accounting under the substantial premium model or does not qualify for a derivative scope exception. Interest expense is recognized using the effective interest method and includes amortization of issuance costs over the life of the debt.
Acquisition-related Costs
The Company accounts for business combinations in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), with acquisitions recorded using the acquisition method. Transaction costs associated with acquisitions are expensed as incurred.
Contingencies
The Company may be subject to reviews, inspections and investigations by regulatory authorities as well as legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company evaluates the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome of all legal or regulatory proceedings to which it is a party and accrues a loss contingency when the loss is probable and reasonably estimable.
Contingent Payments
The Company recognizes a gain on contingent payments when the contingency is resolved and the gain is realized.
Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Net income available to common stockholders represents net income of the Company reduced by an allocation of earnings to participating securities and excise tax on stock repurchases. Unvested share-based payment awards that contained non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) were participating securities while they were outstanding and were included in the computation of EPS pursuant to the two-class method. Share-based payment awards that do not contain such rights are not deemed participating securities and are included in diluted shares outstanding (if dilutive).
| 15 |
Diluted EPS is calculated under the treasury stock method and the two-class method. The calculation that results in the lowest diluted EPS amount for the common stock is reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The treasury stock method includes the dilutive effect of potential common shares including unvested stock-based awards. Potential common shares associated with the convertible notes were computed under the if-converted method. Potential common shares associated with the conversion option embedded in the convertible notes are dilutive when the Company’s average stock price exceeds the conversion price.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method, which requires the determination of deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the differences between the financial and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Tax positions are evaluated utilizing a two-step process. The Company first determines whether any of its tax positions are more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination, based solely on the technical merits of the position. Once it is determined that a position meets this recognition threshold, the position is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than
The Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) provisions of the Tax Reform Act requires the Company to include in its U.S. income tax return foreign subsidiary earnings in excess of an allowable return on the foreign subsidiary’s tangible assets. An accounting policy election is available to either account for the tax effects of GILTI in the period that is subject to such taxes or to provide deferred taxes for book and tax basis differences that upon reversal may be subject to such taxes. The Company accounts for the tax effects of these provisions in the period that is subject to such tax.
Non-income based taxes are recorded as part of other liabilities and other expenses. Excise taxes on stock repurchases are accounted for as a direct cost of the share repurchase transaction and reported as a reduction of stockholders’ equity.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
On September 18, 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which clarifies and modernizes the accounting for costs related to internal-use software. The guidance removes all references to project stages in prior guidance, clarifies the threshold entities apply to begin capitalizing costs and adds more detail to disclosure requirements. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company does not anticipate this standard to have a material impact on its financial statements.
On November 4, 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, which requires additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company does not anticipate this standard to have a material impact on its financial statements.
On November 26, 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments which clarifies the requirements related to accounting for the settlement of a debt instrument as an induced conversion. Transactions within the scope of this guidance require the fair value of consideration transferred in excess of the carrying amount of the converted debt to be recognized as an expense in the period of conversion, with the remaining consideration recognized as a reduction to equity. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025 (and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods). The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2026, and the impact of the adoption has been reflected in the financial statements and related disclosures.

5. Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of financial instruments is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., “the exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources. Unobservable inputs reflect assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the transparency of inputs as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.
Level 3 – Instruments whose significant drivers are unobservable.
The availability of observable inputs can vary from product to product and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of product, whether the product is new and not yet established in the marketplace, and other characteristics particular to the transaction. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by management in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
The tables below summarize the categorization of the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, there were no transfers between Levels 2 and 3.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements – Methodology
Cash equivalents (Note 4) – These financial assets represent cash invested in highly liquid investments with original maturities of less than
Financial instruments owned (Note 6) – Financial instruments owned are investments in ETFs, pass-through GSEs, equities and fixed income. ETFs and equities are generally traded in active, quoted and highly liquid markets and are therefore classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Pricing of pass-through GSEs and fixed income includes consideration given to date of issuance, collateral characteristics and market assumptions related to yields, credit risk and timing of prepayments and may be classified as either Level 1 or Level 2.
Contingent consideration (Note 10) – This liability represents contingent consideration arising from the Ceres acquisition which is measured at fair value on a recurring basis and classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as the valuation incorporates significant unobservable inputs. Fair value is estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model, which incorporates a range of potential revenue outcomes over the earnout measurement period and estimates the probability-weighted present value of expected future payments. Significant assumptions used in the valuation include compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”), revenue volatility and revenue discount rate.

Closure of the WisdomTree WTI Crude Oil 3x Daily Leveraged ETP
Between December 2020 and December 2024, WMAI, WTMAML, WTUK and/or WT Ireland were served with eight separate writs of summons to appear before the Courts of Milan, Udine or Turin, Italy by investors seeking damages resulting from the closure of the WisdomTree WTI Crude Oil 3x Daily Leveraged ETP (“3OIL”) in March 2020. The product was dependent on the receipt of payments from a swap provider to satisfy payment obligations to the investors. Due to an extreme adverse move in oil futures relative to the oil futures’ closing price, the swap contract underlying 3OIL was terminated by the swap provider, which resulted in the compulsory redemption of 3OIL, all in accordance with the prospectus.
Since February 2022, all eight actions have been resolved in the Company’s favor, of which two have been appealed. Total damages sought by investors related to the remaining appealed claims were approximately €

14. Variable Interest Entities
VIEs are entities with any of the following characteristics: (i) the entity does not have enough equity to finance its activities without additional financial support; (ii) the equity holders, as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest; or (iii) the entity is structured with non-substantive voting rights.
Consolidation of a VIE is required for the party deemed to be the primary beneficiary, if any. The primary beneficiary is the party who has both (a) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (b) an obligation to absorb losses of the entity or a right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity. The Company is not the primary beneficiary of any entities in which it has a variable interest as it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entities’ economic performance. Such power is conveyed through the entities’ boards of directors and the Company does not have control over the boards.

15. Revenues from Contracts with Customers
The following table presents the Company’s total revenues from contracts with customers:
Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | |||||||||||||||
| 2026 | 2025 | 2026 | 2025 | |||||||||||||
| Revenues from contracts with customers: | ||||||||||||||||
| Advisory fees | $ | $ | $ | $ | ||||||||||||
| Management fees | ||||||||||||||||
| Performance fees | ||||||||||||||||
| Other revenues | ||||||||||||||||
| Total operating revenues | $ | $ | $ | $ | ||||||||||||
The Company recognizes revenues from contracts with customers when the performance obligation is satisfied, which is when the promised services are transferred to the customer. A service is considered to be transferred when the customer obtains control, which is represented by the transfer of rights with regard to the service. Transfer of control happens either over time or at a point in time. When a performance obligation is satisfied over time, an entity is required to select a single method of measuring progress for each performance obligation that depicts the entity’s performance in transferring control of services to the customer.
There are no contract assets or liabilities that arise in connection with the recognition of operating revenues. In addition, there are no costs incurred to obtain or fulfill the contracts with customers. See Note 16 for additional information regarding related party transactions.
Advisory Fees
A significant portion of the Company’s revenues from contracts with customers is derived primarily from investment advisory agreements with related parties (Note 16). These advisory fees are recognized over time, are earned from the Company’s ETPs and are calculated based on a percentage of the ETPs’ average daily net assets. There is no significant judgment in calculating amounts due which are invoiced monthly in arrears and are not subject to any potential reversal. Progress is measured using the practical expedient under the output method resulting in the recognition of revenue in the amount for which the Company has a right to invoice.
Management Fees
Management fees are earned in exchange for Ceres providing investment advisory and other management services to the Ceres Funds. Management fees are generally calculated as a stated percentage of members’ capital account balances as of the last day of each calendar quarter, subject to adjustment for any contractual waivers as well as contributions and redemptions arising in any particular quarter. Management fees are recognized as revenue over time, as the performance obligation is satisfied.
| 27 |
Performance Fees
Performance fees represent variable consideration and are earned based on a specified percentage of the Ceres Funds’ net profits, subject to contractual fee waivers, high-water marks and loss recovery requirements. Performance fees are earned only after members have recovered prior losses and applicable thresholds have been met. Performance fee revenues are recognized when it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenues recognized will not occur, which generally occurs upon the determination of fund profits that are no longer subject to claw back or reversal under the governing agreements.
Other Revenues
Other revenues include amounts earned from swap providers associated with certain of the Company’s European-listed ETPs, which are generally based on a percentage of the ETPs’ average daily net assets, and transaction-based income associated with flows into certain European-listed ETPs. Also included in other revenues are amounts the Company earns from Atlantic House’s managed models business, generally based on a percentage of assets under advisement, as well as structuring fees for bespoke investment solutions.
Revenue is recognized as the related services are performed. Asset-based fees are recognized over time, based on assets under advisement or net assets. Transaction-based revenues are recognized as the underlying transactions occur, while structuring fees are recognized upon issuance of the related structured product, at which point the Company’s performance obligation has been satisfied. Amounts are generally invoiced monthly or quarterly in arrears. The Company applies the practical expedient under the output method, recognizing revenue in the amount to which it has the right to invoice, as this corresponds directly with the value transferred to the client. There is no significant judgment in determining the transaction price, and the related revenues are not subject to significant reversal.

16. Related Party Transactions
Advisory Services
The Company’s advisory fee revenues are derived primarily from investment advisory agreements with related parties. Under these agreements, the Company has licensed to related parties the use of certain of its own indexes for the U.S. WisdomTree ETFs, WisdomTree Digital Funds and WisdomTree UCITS ETFs. The relevant boards of trustees or boards of directors (including certain officers of the Company) of each of the related parties are primarily responsible for overseeing the management and affairs of the entities for the benefit of their respective stakeholders and have contracted with the Company to provide for general management and administration services.
The Company is also responsible for certain expenses of some of its related parties, including the cost of transfer agency, custody, fund administration and accounting, legal, audit, and other non-distribution services, excluding extraordinary expenses, taxes and certain other expenses, which are included in fund management and administration in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. In exchange, the Company receives fees based on a percentage of the ETPs’ and the Digital Funds’ average daily net assets.
A majority of the independent members of the respective board of trustees or board of directors are required to initially and annually (after the first two years) approve the advisory agreements of the U.S. WisdomTree ETFs and the WisdomTree Digital Funds and these agreements may be terminated by such board of trustees or board of directors upon notice.
Ceres Services to the Ceres Funds
Ceres provides investment advisory and other management services to the Ceres Funds. In exchange for these services the Company earns management fees and performance fees as further disclosed in Note 15.

On July 15, 2022, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2022 Equity Plan under which the Company may issue up to
The Company grants equity awards to employees and directors, which include restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”), including deferred RSUs to non-employee directors, performance-based restricted stock units (“PRSUs”) and stock options. Certain awards described below are subject to acceleration under certain conditions.
| Stock options: | Generally issued for terms of ten years and may vest after at least one year of service and have an exercise price equal to the Company’s stock price on the grant date. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options (when granted) using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. |
| 29 |
| RSAs/RSUs: | Awards are valued based on the Company’s stock price on grant date and generally vest ratably, on an annual basis, over years. For non-employee directors, such awards generally vest on the one-year anniversary of the grant date. |
| Deferred RSUs: | Awards are valued based on the Company’s stock price on grant date and generally vest on the -year anniversary of the grant date. The awards are issued pursuant to the Company’s Non-Employee Director Deferred Compensation Program and are settled based on timing elected by the recipient in advance. |
| PRSUs: | These awards cliff vest years from the grant date and contain a market condition whereby the number of PRSUs ultimately vesting is tied to how the Company’s total shareholder return (“TSR”) compares to a peer group of other publicly traded asset managers over the three-year period. A Monte Carlo simulation is used to value these awards. |

22. Segment Information
The Company, through its subsidiaries in the U.S. and Europe, offers a diverse suite of ETPs, models and solutions, private market investments and digital asset-related products. The Company conducts business as a single operating segment as an ETP sponsor and asset manager, which is based upon the Company’s current organizational and management structure, as well as information used by the CODM to allocate resources and assess performance and other factors. The accounting policies of the segment are the same as those described in Note 2.
The key measures of segment profit or loss that the CODM uses to allocate resources and assess performance are the Company’s consolidated net income, as reported on the Consolidated Statements of Operations, as well as adjusted operating income and adjusted operating income margin, which are exclusive of items that are non-recurring or not core to the Company’s operating business.
The table below discloses these key measures and is inclusive of a reconciliation of the Company’s operating income and operating income margin as computed under U.S. GAAP to the Company’s Non-GAAP adjusted operating income and adjusted operating income margin utilized by the CODM:

All expense categories on the Consolidated Statements of Operations are significant and there are no other significant segment expenses that would require disclosure. Assets provided to the CODM are consistent with those reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets with particular emphasis on the Company’s available liquidity, including its cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, financial instruments owned, accounts receivable and securities held-to-maturity, reduced by current liabilities, seed capital and regulatory capital requirements.
There are no intra-entity sales or transfers and no significant expense categories regularly provided to the CODM beyond those disclosed in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The CODM manages the business using consolidated expense information, adjusted for items that are non-recurring or not core to the Company’s operating business as disclosed in the table above, as well as regularly provided budgeted or forecasted expense information for the operating segment.

WisdomTree ETPs

Market Environment
Global financial markets recovered strongly during the second quarter of 2026 as geopolitical tensions moderated and investor risk appetite improved. Equity markets were led higher by technology-related companies, supported by continued investment in artificial intelligence and resilient corporate earnings. Fixed income markets remained focused on inflation and the outlook for monetary policy, with government bond yields remaining elevated amid ongoing uncertainty around future interest rate movements. Commodities retreated from first-quarter highs as energy prices declined, although geopolitical developments continued to present uncertainty for global markets.
During the quarter, the S&P 500, MSCI EAFE Index (local currency), MSCI EMU Index (local currency), MSCI Japan Index (local currency) and MSCI Emerging Markets Index (U.S. dollar) increased by 15.2%, 11.8%, 15.8%, 16.7% and 24.1%, respectively, while gold prices decreased by 12.6%. The U.S. dollar strengthened 0.7% and 1.4% versus the euro and Japanese yen, respectively, and weakened 0.1% versus the British pound during the quarter.

Our Operating and Financial Results
We operate as an ETP sponsor and asset manager, providing investment advisory services globally through our subsidiaries in the U.S. and Europe.
U.S. Listed ETFs
The AUM of our U.S. listed exchange traded funds, or U.S. listed ETFs, increased from $90.9 billion at March 31, 2026 to $99.0 billion at June 30, 2026 due to market appreciation and net inflows.

The AUM of our European listed (including internationally cross-listed) ETPs, or European listed ETPs, increased from $58.8 billion at March 31, 2026 to $61.1 billion at June 30, 2026 due to $4.1 billion of AUM arising from the acquisition of Atlantic House Holdings Limited (“Atlantic House”) and net inflows, partly offset by market depreciation.

| 40 |
Digital Assets
The AUM of our digital assets products decreased from $867 million at March 31, 2026 to $761 million at June 30, 2026 due to net outflows. Substantially all Q2 2026 outflows were from the WisdomTree Treasury Money Market Digital Fund.

Consolidated Operating Results
The following table sets forth our revenues and net (loss)/income for the most recent five quarters.

| · | Revenues – Total revenues increased 57.3% from the three months ended June 30, 2025 to $177.2 million in the comparable period in 2026, driven by higher average AUM, a higher average advisory fee, revenues arising from the acquisitions of Ceres Partners, LLC (“Ceres”) and Atlantic House, and increased other revenues from our European listed ETPs. |
| 41 |
| · | Expenses – Total operating expenses increased 35.1% from the three months ended June 30, 2025 to $105.3 million in the comparable period in 2026 primarily due to higher incentive compensation and headcount, as well as increased fund management and administration expenses, intangible asset amortization related to the Ceres and Atlantic House acquisitions and third-party distribution fees. |
| · | Other Income/(Expenses) – Other income/(expenses) includes interest income and interest expense, loss on repurchase of convertible notes, impairments and other items. Further information is provided herein. |
| · | Net income – We reported net income of $44.3 million and $24.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. |
Guidance Update for the Year Ending December 31, 2026
Compensation to Revenue Ratio
Our compensation to revenue ratio for the year ending December 31, 2026 is currently estimated to range from 26% to 28% (unchanged from our guidance provided last quarter) and takes into consideration the Atlantic House acquisition, planned hires as well as year-end compensation adjustments and the annualization of hires made during 2025. The range also considers variability in incentive compensation with drivers including the magnitude of our flows, revenues and operating income growth, margin expansion and our stock price performance in relation to our peers. A range is provided in consideration of uncertain market conditions.
Discretionary Spending
Discretionary spending includes marketing, sales, professional fees, occupancy and equipment, depreciation and amortization and other expenses. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, our discretionary spending was $40.8 million. We currently estimate our discretionary spending for the year ending December 31, 2026 to range from $83.0 million to $89.0 million (unchanged from our guidance provided last quarter).
Not included in the guidance above is intangible amortization arising from the Ceres and Atlantic House acquisitions, of which $4.0 million was recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
Gross Margin
We define gross margin as total operating revenues less fund management and administration expenses. Gross margin percentage is calculated as gross margin divided by total operating revenues. Our gross margin was 83.6% during the six months ended June 30, 2026. For the year ending December 31, 2026, we currently estimate that our gross margin percentage will be 83.0% to 84.0% (unchanged from our guidance provided last quarter).
Third-Party Distribution Fees
We currently estimate third-party distribution expense to be approximately $20.0 million to $24.0 million for the year ending December 31, 2026 (unchanged from our guidance provided last quarter).
Interest Expense
We currently estimate our interest expense for the year ending December 31, 2026 to be $54.0 million (unchanged from our guidance provided last quarter) taking into consideration our current capital structure. See Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information. This guidance is inclusive of approximately $0.9 million of interest cost we are required to impute under U.S. GAAP related to our interest-free financing of the shares of Series C Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”) we repurchased from Gold Bullion Holdings (Jersey) Limited (“GBH”), a subsidiary of the World Gold Council, in November 2023.
Interest Income
We currently estimate our interest income for the year ending December 31, 2026 to be $8.0 million (previously $10.0 million), reflecting the allocation of a portion of our interest-earning assets to stock repurchases.
Income Tax Expense
We currently estimate that our consolidated normalized effective tax rate will be approximately 24.0% to 25.0% for the year ending December 31, 2026 (unchanged from our guidance provided last quarter).
This estimated rate may change and is dependent upon our actual taxable income earned in relation to our forecasts as well as any other items which may arise that are not currently forecasted. Such items may include, but are not limited to, increases or decreases in valuation allowances and any stock-based compensation windfalls or shortfalls. Additional corporate tax legislation could also impact our normalized effective tax rate.
| 42 |
Weighted Average Diluted Shares
We currently estimate our weighted average diluted shares to be between 152.0 million and 155.0 million for the third and fourth quarters of 2026 (previously 154.0 million shares). This guidance reflects stock repurchases of 1.5 million shares during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and also contemplates incremental shares associated with our Convertible Notes, assuming a stock price approximating recent levels. While our Convertible Notes require principal to be paid in cash, our diluted shares would need to be increased for any incremental shares associated with an exercise of the conversion option if our stock price exceeds the applicable conversion price of our Convertible Notes of $19.15 per share for the 4.625% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 and $21.58 per share for the 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2031.

Operating Revenues
Advisory fees
Advisory fee revenues increased 41.7% from $103.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 to $146.3 million during the comparable period in 2026 due to higher average AUM and a higher average advisory fee. Our average advisory fee was 0.35% during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 0.36% during the comparable period in 2026.
Management fees
Management fees were $5.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026 as a result of the Ceres acquisition, which was completed in October 2025. We earn management fees in exchange for providing investment advisory and other management services to Ceres Farms, LLC and Ceres Farms Fund II, LP (collectively, the “Ceres Funds”).
Performance fees
Performance fees were $6.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026 as a result of the Ceres acquisition. We earn performance fees based on a specified percentage of the Ceres Funds’ net profits, subject to contractual fee waivers, high-water marks and loss recovery requirements.
Other revenues
Other revenues increased 108.2% from $9.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 to $19.5 million during the comparable period in 2026 due to revenues arising from the Atlantic House acquisition, which was completed in May 2026, and higher other revenues attributable to our European listed ETPs.

Compensation and benefits
Compensation and benefits expense increased 33.2% from $32.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 to $43.7 million in the comparable period in 2026 due to increased headcount driven in part by the Ceres and Atlantic House acquisitions. Headcount was 321 and 414 at June 30, 2025 and 2026, respectively.

Other gains, net
Other gains, net were $0.4 million and $5.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2026, respectively. This period includes a remeasurement gain of $4.4 million on British pounds held to complete the Atlantic House acquisition, net gains on our investments of $2.0 million, net losses on our financial instruments owned of $0.5 million and $0.5 million of foreign currency remeasurement losses on U.S. dollars held by foreign subsidiaries.

Income Taxes
Our effective income tax rate for six months ended June 30, 2026 was 51.9%, resulting in an income tax expense of $22.8 million. The effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to non-deductible amounts associated with the repurchase of convertible notes, partly offset by tax windfalls associated with the vesting of stock-based compensation awards and a lower tax rate on foreign earnings.
Our effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was 20.6%, resulting in an income tax expense of $12.8 million. Our tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to tax windfalls associated with the vesting of stock-based compensation awards and a lower tax rate on foreign earnings. These items were partly offset by state and local income taxes.
Non-GAAP Financial Measurements
In an effort to provide additional information regarding our results as determined by GAAP, we also disclose certain non-GAAP information which we believe provides useful and meaningful information. Our management reviews these non-GAAP 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-GAAP measurements so as to share this perspective of management. Non-GAAP measurements do not have any standardized meaning, do not replace nor are they superior to GAAP financial measurements and are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measurements should be considered in the context with our GAAP results. The non-GAAP financial measurements contained in this Report include the following:
Adjusted Net Income and Diluted Earnings per Share
We disclose adjusted net income and diluted earnings per share as non-GAAP financial measurements in order to report our results exclusive of items that are non-recurring or not core to our operating business. We believe presenting these non-GAAP financial measurements provides investors with a consistent way to analyze our performance. These non-GAAP financial measurements exclude the following:
| · | Gains or losses on financial instruments owned: We account for our financial instruments owned as trading securities, which requires these instruments to be measured at fair value with gains and losses reported in net income. We exclude these items when calculating our non-GAAP financial measurements as the gains and losses introduce earnings volatility and are not core to our operating business. |
| · | Foreign currency remeasurement gains and losses on U.S. dollars held by foreign subsidiaries: GAAP requires account balances to be remeasured into an entity’s functional currency, with resulting gains and losses reported in net income. Foreign subsidiaries holding U.S. dollars remeasure these balances into their functional currencies and recognize the gains and losses. Also excluded are remeasurement gains on British pounds held to complete the Atlantic House acquisition. We exclude remeasurement effects from our non-GAAP financial measures, as they introduce earnings volatility, are not core to our operations and arise from balances denominated in our reporting currency. |
| · | Tax windfalls and shortfalls upon vesting of stock-based compensation awards: GAAP requires the recognition of tax windfalls and shortfalls within income tax expense. These items arise upon the vesting of stock-based compensation awards and the magnitude is directly correlated to the number of awards vesting/exercised, as well as the difference between the price of our stock on the date the award was granted and the date the award vested or was exercised. We exclude these items when calculating our non-GAAP financial measurements as they introduce earnings volatility and are not core to our operating business. |
| · | Remeasurement of contingent consideration arising from the Ceres acquisition: On October 1, 2025, we completed the Ceres acquisition for aggregate consideration consisting of (i) $275.0 million in cash payable at closing, subject to customary post-closing adjustments and (ii) contingent consideration of up to $225.0 million, payable in 2030, contingent upon Ceres achieving a compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) in revenues of 12% to 22% during the measurement period of January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2029. GAAP requires contingent consideration to be re-measured each reporting period with changes in fair value reported in net income. We exclude changes in fair value of contingent consideration when calculating our non-GAAP financial measurements as these items are not core to our operating business. |
| 51 |
| · | Other items: Losses related to convertible notes transactions, amortization of intangible assets, changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowance, acquisition-related costs, imputed interest on our payable to Gold Bullion Holdings (Jersey) Limited (“GBH”) and gains and losses recognized on our investments are excluded when calculating our non-GAAP financial measurements. |

Liquidity
We consider our available liquidity to be our liquid assets, less our current liabilities, seed capital in WisdomTree Digital Funds and regulatory capital requirements of certain of our subsidiaries. Liquid assets consist of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, financial instruments owned, at fair value, accounts receivable and securities held-to-maturity. Our financial instruments owned, at fair value are highly liquid investments. Accounts receivable are current assets and primarily represent receivables from advisory, management and performance fees we earn from our offerings. Our current liabilities consist primarily of payments owed to vendors and third parties in the normal course of business and accrued incentive compensation for employees.
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash decreased by $16.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026 due to $510.2 million used to repurchase convertible notes, $197.5 million paid for the Atlantic House acquisition, $50.9 million used to repurchase our common stock, $12.9 million used to purchase financial instruments owned, at fair value, $12.6 million used to pay convertible notes issuance costs, $9.0 million used to pay dividends, $2.0 million decrease in cash flow due to changes in foreign exchange rates, $1.9 million used to pay for software development and $0.3 million from other activities. These decreases were partly offset by $603.8 million of proceeds from the issuance of the 2031 Notes, $93.5 million provided from operating activities and $83.1 million of proceeds from the sale of financial instruments owned, at fair value.
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash increased by $12.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 due to $45.2 million provided from operating activities, $7.5 million increase in cash flow due to changes in foreign exchange rates and $4.5 million of proceeds from the sale of financial instruments owned, at fair value. These increases were partly offset by $15.8 million used to purchase financial instruments owned, at fair value, $12.7 million used to repurchase our common stock, $8.9 million used to pay dividends, $4.0 million used to purchase investments, $1.9 million of excise tax paid on common stock repurchased, $1.3 million used to pay for software development and $0.1 million from other activities.
Convertible Notes
We have the following convertible notes outstanding as of June 30, 2026:
| · | $18.1 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Notes, to be redeemed in full for cash on September 2, 2026; |
| · | $475.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.625% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 (the “2030 Notes”); and |
| · | $603.75 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2031 (the “2031 Notes”). |
Each class of notes was issued pursuant to indentures dated as of the issuance dates between us and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (either initially or as successor to U.S. Bank National Association, the “Trustee”), in private offerings to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

In connection with the issuance of the 2031 Notes in March 2026, we exchanged $75.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes for 6,807,374 shares of common stock and $275.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Notes for $302.7 million in cash and 4,192,620 shares of common stock. Additionally, in June 2026, we retired the remaining $75.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes and $51.9 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Notes for cash of $120.1 million and $87.4 million, respectively. As a result of these transactions, we recognized the following:
| · | During the three months ended June 30, 2026, we recognized a loss of $6.6 million arising from the repurchase of the 2029 Notes, which was accounted for as an induced conversion. Additionally, $74.6 million was recorded as a reduction to equity as a result of this transaction, as well as the maturity of the remaining $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes; and |
| · | During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we recognized a loss of $68.9 million, comprised of a loss on extinguishment of $16.9 million associated with the repurchase of the 2026 Notes and a loss of $52.0 million arising from the repurchase of the 2029 Notes, which was accounted for as an induced conversion. Additionally, $116.5 million was recorded as a reduction to equity resulting from these transactions, as well as the maturity of the remaining $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes. |
As of June 30, 2026, we had an aggregate principal amount of $1,096.9 million outstanding of the 2029 Notes, the 2030 Notes and the 2031 Notes (collectively, the “Convertible Notes”).

Capital Resources
Our principal source of financing is our operating cash flow. We believe that current cash flows generated by our operating activities and existing cash balances should be sufficient for us to fund our operations for the foreseeable future.
Our ability to satisfy our contractual obligations as they arise is discussed in the section titled “Contractual Obligations” below.
Use of Capital
Our business does not require us to maintain a significant cash position. However, certain of our subsidiaries are required to maintain a minimum level of regulatory capital, which at June 30, 2026 was approximately $48.1 million in the aggregate. Notwithstanding these regulatory capital requirements, we expect that our main uses of cash will be to fund the ongoing operations of our business. We also maintain a capital return program which includes a $0.03 per share quarterly cash dividend and authority to purchase our common stock through April 27, 2028, including purchases to offset future equity grants made under our equity plans and purchases made in open market or privately negotiated transactions.
During the three months ended June 30, 2026, we repurchased 1,489,990 shares of our common stock under the repurchase program for an aggregate cost of $25.9 million. Currently, approximately $199.1 million remains under this program for future purchases.
Contractual Obligations
Convertible Notes
We currently have $1,096.9 million in aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes outstanding, of which $475.0 million and $603.75 million are scheduled to mature on August 15, 2030 and October 1, 2031, in respect of the 2030 Notes and the 2031 Notes, respectively, unless earlier converted, repurchased or redeemed. In addition, the remaining $18.1 million in aggregate principal outstanding of the 2029 Notes will be redeemed in full for cash on September 2, 2026. Conditional conversions or a requirement to repurchase the Convertible Notes upon the occurrence of a fundamental change may accelerate payment.
The Convertible Notes require cash settlement of up to the principal amount, while settlement of the conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount may be satisfied in either cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock. We may settle and/or refinance these obligations when due.
See the section titled “Convertible Notes” above for additional information.

Contingent Consideration
Pursuant to the Ceres Purchase Agreement, up to $225.0 million of additional consideration is payable in 2030, contingent upon Ceres achieving a compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) in revenue of 12% to 22% during the earnout measurement period of January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2029, as follows:
| · | If the revenue CAGR for the earnout period is equal to or less than 12%, then the aggregate amount of the earnout consideration will be $0; |
| · | If the revenue CAGR for the earnout period is greater than 12% but less than 22%, then the aggregate amount of the earnout consideration will be pro-rated using straight-line interpolation between $0 and $225.0 million; and |
| · | If the revenue CAGR for the earnout period is equal to or greater than 22%, then the aggregate amount of the earnout consideration will be $225.0 million. |
We have determined that the earnout should be classified as contingent consideration as (i) continuing employment is not a condition for payment (except as described below), (ii) non-employee sellers are entitled to similar payments based upon their relative ownership percentages and (iii) the payment formula described above is tied to the valuation of the acquired business. Under ASC 805, contingent consideration must be recognized at the acquisition date as part of the consideration transferred for the acquired business.
The fair value of the contingent consideration at June 30, 2026 was $15.8 million.
In connection with the Ceres acquisition, the sellers established a retention bonus plan for certain Ceres employees pursuant to which the greater of $3.05 million or 10% of any earnout consideration in excess of $50.0 million will be forfeited by the sellers and paid to participating employees, contingent upon continued employment through earnout payment date. Any amounts forfeited due to employee attrition revert to the sellers. This compensation will be recognized over the service period with an equal and offsetting receivable from the sellers.
Payable to GBH
On November 20, 2023, we repurchased our Series C Preferred Stock from GBH for aggregate cash consideration of approximately $84.4 million. Under the terms of the transaction, we paid GBH $40 million on the closing date, with the remainder of the purchase price payable in equal, interest-free installments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the closing date, of which $69.6 million has been paid to date. The implied price per share was $6.02 when considering the interest-free financing element of the transaction.
The carrying value of this obligation was $14.4 million at June 30, 2026.
Operating Leases
Total future minimum lease payments with respect to our operating lease liabilities were $3.1 million at June 30, 2026. Cash flows generated by our operating activities and existing cash balances should be sufficient to satisfy the future minimum lease payments. See Note 12 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet financing or other arrangements and have neither created nor are party to any special-purpose or off-balance sheet entities for the purpose of raising capital, incurring debt or operating our business.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Business Combinations
We account for business combinations under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, which requires an allocation of the consideration paid by us to the identifiable assets, intangible assets and liabilities based on the estimated fair values as of the closing date of the acquisition. Contingent consideration obligations that are elements of consideration transferred are recognized at the acquisition date as part of the fair value transferred in exchange for the acquired business and are remeasured to fair value each reporting period. The excess of the fair value of purchase price over the fair values of the identifiable assets, intangible assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair values of the identifiable net assets at the acquisition date. We test goodwill for impairment at least annually and at the time of a triggering event requiring re-evaluation, if one were to occur. Goodwill is considered impaired when the estimated fair value of the reporting unit that was allocated the goodwill is less than its carrying value. If the estimated fair value of such reporting unit is less than its carrying value, goodwill impairment is recognized based on that difference, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. A reporting unit is an operating segment or a component of an operating segment provided that the component constitutes a business for which discrete financial information is available and management regularly reviews the operating results of that component.
| 56 |
We test goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level and have determined that we have a single reporting unit, consistent with our single operating segment. Goodwill is assessed for impairment annually on November 30th. When performing our goodwill impairment test, we consider a qualitative assessment, when appropriate, and the market approach and our market capitalization when determining the fair value of the reporting unit. The results of our most recent analysis indicated no impairment based upon a quantitative assessment.
Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually and are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are impaired if their estimated fair value is less than their carrying value. We may rely on a qualitative assessment when performing our intangible asset impairment test. Otherwise, the impairment evaluation is performed at the lowest level of reasonably identifiable cash flows independent of other assets. The annual impairment testing date for our intangible assets is November 30th. The results of our most recent analysis identified no indicators of impairment to be recognized based upon a quantitative assessment (discounted cash flow analysis) which relied upon significant unobservable inputs including projected revenue growth rates of 3.0% and a weighted average cost of capital of 9.0%.
Investments
We account for equity investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value under the measurement alternative prescribed within Accounting Standards Codification Topic 321, Investments – Equity Securities, to the extent such investments are not subject to consolidation or the equity method. Under the measurement alternative, these financial instruments are carried at cost, less any impairment (assessed quarterly), plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer. In addition, income is recognized when dividends are received only to the extent they are distributed from net accumulated earnings of the investee. Otherwise, such distributions are considered returns of investment and are recorded as a reduction of the cost of the investment. See Note 7 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for information.
Investments in debt instruments are accounted for at fair value, with changes in fair value reported in other income/(expenses).
Revenue Recognition
We earn a significant portion of our revenues in the form of advisory fees from our ETPs and recognize this revenue over time, as the performance obligation is satisfied. Advisory fees are based on a percentage of the ETPs’ average daily net assets. Progress is measured using the practical expedient under the output method resulting in the recognition of revenue in the amount for which we have a right to invoice.
We earn management fees in exchange for Ceres providing investment advisory and other management services to Ceres Farms. Management fees are generally calculated as a stated percentage of members’ capital account balances as of the last day of each calendar quarter, subject to adjustment for any contractual waivers as well as contributions and redemptions arising in any particular quarter. Management fees are recognized as revenue over time, as the performance obligation is satisfied.
We earn performance fees based on a specified percentage of the Ceres Funds’ net profits, subject to contractual fee waivers, high-water marks and loss recovery requirements. Performance fees are earned only after members have recovered prior losses and applicable thresholds have been met. Performance fee revenues are recognized when it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenues recognized will not occur, which generally occurs upon the determination of fund profits that are no longer subject to clawback or reversal under the governing agreements.
Other revenues include amounts earned from swap providers associated with certain of our European-listed ETPs, which are generally based on a percentage of the ETPs’ average daily net assets, and transaction-based income associated with flows into certain European-listed ETPs. We also earn revenue from Atlantic House’s managed models business, generally based on a percentage of assets under advisement, as well as structuring fees for bespoke investment solutions.
Revenue is recognized as the related services are performed. Asset-based fees are recognized over time, based on assets under advisement or net assets. Transaction-based revenues are recognized as the underlying transactions occur, while structuring fees are recognized upon issuance of the related structured product, at which point our performance obligation has been satisfied. Amounts are generally invoiced monthly or quarterly in arrears. We apply the practical expedient under the output method, recognizing revenue in the amount to which it has the right to invoice, as this corresponds directly with the value transferred to the customer. There is no significant judgment in determining the transaction price, and the related revenues are not subject to significant reversal.
| ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
The following information, together with information included in other parts of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, describes key aspects of our market risk.
| 57 |
Market Risk
Market risk to us generally represents the risk of changes in the value of our products that results from fluctuations in securities or commodity prices, the value of underlying real assets (including farmland), the value of derivative-based investment strategies and their underlying market exposures, foreign currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar, and interest rates. Nearly all our revenues are derived from advisory agreements for the WisdomTree ETPs and other managed investment vehicles, including those acquired through the Ceres and Atlantic House acquisitions. Under these agreements, the fees we receive are based on the average market value of the assets in the WisdomTree products we manage and, in the case of other managed investment vehicles, on investors’ capital account balances, which are influenced by the value of the underlying assets.
Fluctuations in the value of the ETPs are common and are generated by numerous factors such as market volatility, the global economy, inflation, changes in investor strategies and sentiment, availability of alternative investment vehicles, domestic and foreign government regulations, emerging markets developments and others. With respect to farmland-focused investment products, changes in farmland values may be driven by factors such as agricultural commodity prices, farm income, interest rates, inflation expectations, land supply and demand dynamics, climate and weather conditions, and government agricultural and environmental policies. Accordingly, changes in any one or a combination of these factors may reduce the value of investment securities or real assets and, in turn, the underlying AUM or investors’ capital account balances on which our revenues are earned. These declines may cause investors to withdraw funds from our products in favor of investments that they perceive as offering greater opportunity or lower risk, thereby compounding the impact on our revenues. We believe challenging and volatile market conditions will continue to be present in the foreseeable future.
Interest Rate Risk
We invest our corporate cash in short-term interest earning assets, primarily in federal agency debt instruments, WisdomTree fixed income ETFs, U.S. treasuries, corporate bonds, money market instruments at a commercial bank and other financial instruments which totaled $268.2 million and $157.9 million as of December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2026, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, we recognized gains on these financial instruments of $2.9 million and any gains/losses recognized in the future may be material to our operating results. We do not anticipate that changes in interest rates will have a material impact on our financial condition or cash flows.
In addition, our Convertible Notes bear interest at fixed rates of 3.25% for the 2029 Notes, 4.625% for the 2030 Notes and 4.50% for the 2031 Notes. Therefore, we have no direct financial statement risk associated with changes in interest rates. However, the fair value of the Convertible Notes changes primarily when the market price of our common stock fluctuates or interest rates change.
Exchange Rate Risk
We are subject to currency translation exposure on the results of our non-U.S. operations, primarily in the U.K. and Europe. Foreign currency translation risk is the risk that exchange rate gains or losses arise from translating foreign entities’ statements of earnings and balance sheets from functional currency to our reporting currency (the U.S. dollar) for consolidation purposes. The advisory fees earned on our European listed ETPs are predominantly in U.S. dollars (and also paid in gold, other precious metals and cryptocurrency, as described below); however, expenses for corporate overhead are generally incurred in British pounds. Currently, we do not enter into derivative financial instruments aimed at offsetting certain exposures in the statement of operations or the balance sheet but may seek to do so in the future.
Exchange rate risk associated with the euro is not considered to be significant.
Commodity and Cryptocurrency Price Risk
Fluctuations in the prices of commodities and cryptocurrencies that are linked to certain of our ETPs could have a material adverse effect on our AUM and revenues. In addition, a portion of the advisory fee revenues we receive on our ETPs backed by gold, other precious metals and cryptocurrencies are paid in the underlying metal or cryptocurrency. While we readily sell the gold, precious metals and cryptocurrencies that we earn under these advisory contracts, we still may maintain a position. We currently do not enter into arrangements to hedge against fluctuations in the price of these commodities and cryptocurrencies and any hedging we may undertake in the future may not be cost-effective or sufficient to hedge against this exposure.
| ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of June 30, 2026, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level in ensuring that material information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules, regulations and forms of the SEC, including ensuring that such material information is accumulated by and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. See “Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting” below for a discussion regarding the Ceres and Atlantic House acquisitions, which were completed on October 1, 2025 and May 1, 2026, respectively.
| 58 |
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In accordance with guidance issued by the SEC, companies are permitted to exclude acquisitions from their final assessment of internal control over financial reporting for the first fiscal year in which the acquisition occurred. Management’s evaluation of internal control over financial reporting excluded the internal control activities of Ceres, which we acquired on October 1, 2025, and Atlantic House, which we acquired on May 1, 2026, as discussed in Note 3 to our Consolidated Financial Statements. We have included the financial results of these acquisitions in the consolidated financial statements from the date of each acquisition. As of the date of this Report, we are in the process of completing the integration of Ceres and Atlantic House into our overall internal control over financial reporting, and have deferred our assessment of the internal control over financial reporting related to the Ceres and Atlantic House acquisitions. The table below shows the contribution to total assets, net assets, revenues and net income as a result of the acquisitions:
| Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 | |||||
| % of Total assets | 3.4% | ||||
| % of Net assets | 6.4% | ||||
| % of Revenues | 9.7% | ||||
| % of Net income | 16.7% | ||||
Notwithstanding the Atlantic House acquisition, during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II: OTHER INFORMATION
