By Mill Chart

Last update: Aug 7, 2025

Brookfield Corporation (NYSE:BN) reported its second-quarter 2025 results, showcasing a mixed performance relative to analyst expectations. The company posted revenue of $18.08 billion, significantly surpassing the estimated $1.48 billion, while distributable earnings per share (EPS) came in at $0.88, slightly below the consensus estimate of $0.90. The market reaction has been cautiously positive, with shares edging up 0.18% in pre-market trading, though the stock has seen minimal movement over the past week and a slight decline over the last two weeks.

Key Financial Highlights

  • Revenue: $18.08 billion (vs. estimated $1.48 billion) – a substantial beat, driven by strong performance across asset management, wealth solutions, and operating businesses.
  • Distributable EPS: $0.88 (vs. estimated $0.90) – a modest miss, though the company highlighted a 13% year-over-year increase in distributable earnings before realizations.
  • Asset Monetizations: Over $55 billion year-to-date, including $35 billion since the last quarter, reflecting robust capital recycling.
  • Deployable Capital: A record $177 billion, positioning the company for future investment opportunities.

Market Reaction

The muted pre-market gain suggests investors are weighing the revenue beat against the slight EPS miss. The stock’s flat performance over the past week indicates that much of the positive momentum may have been priced in ahead of earnings, given Brookfield’s recent announcements, including a three-for-two stock split aimed at improving liquidity.

Outlook vs. Analyst Estimates

While the press release did not provide explicit forward guidance, analysts currently expect Q3 2025 revenue of $1.53 billion and full-year revenue of $6.74 billion. Brookfield’s strong capital position ($177 billion in deployable capital) and continued fundraising momentum suggest potential upside to these estimates, particularly in its asset management and wealth solutions segments.

Press Release Summary

  • Strong Core Earnings: Distributable earnings before realizations rose 13% YoY to $1.3 billion ($0.80 per share).
  • Wealth Solutions Growth: Insurance assets grew to $135 billion, with $4 billion in annuity sales during the quarter.
  • Operating Businesses: Resilient cash flows, with notable deals like a 3,000-megawatt hydroelectric agreement with Google.
  • Stock Split: A three-for-two split approved to enhance accessibility for individual investors, effective October 2025.

Context from Recent News

Recent headlines highlight Brookfield’s strategic shift toward an "investment-led insurer" model, aligning with its growing wealth solutions business. This pivot complements its traditional strengths in real assets and alternative investments.
