First Quarter 2026 Results
TSX/NYSE/PSE: MFC SEHK: 945 C$ unless otherwise stated
TORONTO, ON – May 13, 2026 – Manulife Financial Corporation (“Manulife” or the “Company”) reported its first
quarter results for the period ended March 31, 2026, delivering double-digit core EPS and new business CSM
growth year over year.
Key highlights for the first quarter of 2026 (“1Q26”) include:
•Core earnings1 of $1.8 billion, up 8% on a CER basis2 compared with the first quarter of 2025 (“1Q25”)
•Net income attributed to shareholders of $1.1 billion, up $0.7 billion from 1Q25
•Core EPS3 of $1.06, up 11%2 from 1Q25. EPS of $0.65, up 178%2 from 1Q25
•Core ROE3 of 16.5% and ROE of 10.1%
•LICAT ratio4 of 136%
•APE sales up 7%5, new business CSM up 16%2 and new business value (“NBV”) up 7%5 from 1Q25
•Global Wealth and Asset Management (“Global WAM”) net outflows5 of $4.4 billion, compared with $0.5 billion of
net inflows in 1Q25
“We delivered a solid first quarter, executing our strategy and demonstrating the strength of our diversified
portfolio. We generated double-digit growth in core EPS, and new business momentum continued to build,
driving double-digit growth in new business CSM across all three insurance segments, despite macroeconomic
uncertainty.
“Asia achieved another strong quarter, with 22% growth in core earnings and 15% growth in new business
value, reflecting robust contributions from key markets in the region. In Global WAM, core EBITDA margin3
improved year over year, notwithstanding the impact of the eMPF transition, and Manulife | Comvest
contributed positively to margin, core earnings and net inflows.
“We made sustained progress against our strategic priorities — expanding our health proposition with new
partnerships in Asia and Canada, advancing Global WAM through our partnership with L&G6, and further
differentiating our U.S. product offerings. We scaled AI delivery across our global footprint to enhance
distributor experience and improve productivity and efficiency. We remain well positioned to deliver our targets
and capture growth, generating sustainable value for shareholders.”7
— Phil Witherington, Manulife President & Chief Executive Officer
“Our balance sheet and financial performance demonstrated resilience during a volatile quarter. Excess capital
remained strong, our financial leverage ratio improved, and book value per common share increased to an all-
time high8. We continued to deploy capital in a disciplined manner, returning $1.2 billion to shareholders
through dividends and share buybacks, and on the acquisition of Schroders Indonesia. Core ROE was 16.5%
for the quarter, an increase of 90 basis points compared with 1Q25, and our expense efficiency ratio of 46%3
remained in-line year over year, while continuing strategic investments in AI and reflecting the impact of the
Comvest acquisition in Global WAM.”
— Colin Simpson, Manulife Chief Financial Officer

Strategic Highlights
We are executing to expand our diversified portfolio and further strengthen distribution capabilities and
product leadership
In Asia, we received recognition as Asia’s Best Insurance Provider for Wealth Management at the 2026
Euromoney Private Banking Awards, a leading benchmark in the private banking and wealth management
industry. This acknowledgement reflects our strong growth momentum, innovative product suite for high-net-worth
(“HNW”) customer segments, value-added service, international capabilities, and trusted relationships with our
distribution partners across all HNW channels.
In Global WAM, we completed the acquisition of PT Schroder Investment Management Indonesia (“Schroders
Indonesia”) with $3.5 billion of assets under management (“AUM”) as of March 31, 2026. The acquisition
strengthens our position as the largest asset manager in Indonesia9 and enables us to deliver enhanced value to
our clients and stakeholders by leveraging the firm’s local expertise and client relationships.
In addition, we entered into a strategic partnership with L&G6 to enhance our distribution, investment management,
and product development capabilities. The partnership is intended to combine our global asset management
expertise and distribution platform with L&G’s strengths as a global asset manager and distribution capabilities,
especially across Europe, bringing together complementary capabilities to expand access to differentiated
investment solutions across institutional, retirement, and retail channels.
In the U.S., we further differentiated our product portfolio through enhancements to our indexed and hybrid
indexed universal life offerings, better positioning us to address evolving income-protection and wealth-
accumulation needs and supporting our growth strategy. Furthermore, we reinforced our industry-leading large-
case underwriting capabilities by increasing auto-bind limits through reinsurer support, simplifying underwriting and
reducing friction for complex submissions.
We are deploying AI globally to enhance distributor experience, drive efficiency, and deliver value
We accelerated our momentum across our enterprise AI platform, establishing production‑ready environments and
enabling initial scalable use cases, while leveraging new strategic partnerships with Akka10 and Adaptive ML11. In
addition, our developers across the organization continued to adopt assisted and autonomous AI capabilities,
increasing their productivity by 30% while enabling reinvestment to support business growth and develop new
capabilities to serve our customers. Together, we expect these advancements will enhance our ability to deploy AI
at scale with speed, consistency, and in alignment with our Responsible AI Principles.
Building on the roll out of agent and advisor AI tools in a number of our Asia markets in 2025, we launched our
distributor AI tool in Vietnam to support faster access to product information, premium calculations and simplified
illustrations for customers. In Japan, we also enhanced our AI tool to provide a unified, always-available entry point
to information about our independent agents, including their affiliations, branch details, and product license
eligibility, enabling us to provide better and faster support to these agents.
In Global WAM, we introduced an AI‑powered sales platform in U.S. Retail to better integrate data, enabling more
personalized advisor conversations and smarter sales deployment. This platform allows sales teams to prioritize
the most promising opportunities, driving an approximately 40% increase in meaningful advisor interactions and
supporting higher flows.
In the U.S., we continued to realize benefits from scaling GenAI investments in underwriting through the expansion
of our Quick Quote support tool, enabling us to automate nearly half of preliminary assessments, which
accelerated average turnaround time from days to minutes and enabled underwriters to focus on more complex
cases.
In Canada, we enhanced online claims processing for our Affinity health & dental business through AI-driven
document processing for the majority of manually processed claims, which improved processing speed and
accelerated payments to customers.
We are advancing our health, wealth and longevity strategy while establishing new strategic partnerships
In Asia, we established an exclusive partnership with Guardant Health to offer the Shield™ Multi‑Cancer Detection
test (“Shield MCD test”)12 to eligible customers in Hong Kong, Singapore, and the Philippines. The collaboration
makes us the first insurer in Asia to offer the Shield MCD test, broadening access to early cancer detection and
advancing our commitment to improving customer health outcomes and longevity.
In Canada, we partnered with Osara Health®, a global provider of evidence-based cancer support programs to
pilot the Cancer Coach™ program and offer eligible Group Benefits members structured and personalized support
for navigating the daily challenges that accompany a cancer diagnosis, treatment, and recovery.
4
We also advanced Manulife’s commitment to longevity through a partnership with the National Institute on Ageing,
supporting the release of the Ageing in Canada Survey, one of Canada’s most comprehensive annual snapshots of
aging, and building on our commitment to health, wealth and financial wellbeing.
In the U.S., we launched John Hancock Vitality PRO, a distributor-facing engagement platform designed to
support the promotion of John Hancock Vitality and to enhance producer loyalty. Early adoption continues to build,
reinforcing engagement in John Hancock Vitality and our mission to help customers live longer, healthier, better
lives.
Continued business growth drove core earnings higher13
Core earnings of $1.8 billion in 1Q26, up 8% from 1Q25
The increase in core earnings reflected strong business growth in Asia and Global WAM, the net positive impact of
2025 updates to actuarial methods and assumptions, and a net improvement in insurance experience, partially
offset by lower investment spreads in the U.S. and the impact of the eMPF transition in Hong Kong.
•Asia core earnings increased 22%, reflecting continued business growth and the net positive impact of 2025
updates to actuarial methods and assumptions, partially offset by less favourable insurance experience.
•Global WAM core earnings increased 2%, driven by higher net fee income from favourable market impacts
over the past 12 months, contribution from the Manulife | Comvest business, and continued expense
discipline, partially offset by the impact of the eMPF transition in Hong Kong and lower performance fees.
•Canada core earnings decreased 6%, reflecting unfavourable insurance experience in Group Insurance in
1Q26, compared with favourable experience in 1Q25. The variance in insurance experience was largely driven
by higher long-term disability claims, along with higher expenses to support the growing business and
transformational investment to elevate customer experience in Group Insurance. This was partially offset by
business growth in the segment, the net positive impact of 2025 updates to actuarial methods and
assumptions, and a lower charge in the expected credit loss provision.
•U.S. core earnings decreased 4%, primarily driven by lower investment spreads, partially offset by favourable
net insurance experience in 1Q26 compared with unfavourable experience in 1Q25.
•Corporate and Other core earnings improved by $12 million, reflecting the non-recurrence of the 1Q25
provision for the California wildfires in our P&C reinsurance business, partially offset by lower investment
income and higher expenses from continued strategic investments in transformational efforts, including AI-
focused initiatives.
Net Income attributed to shareholders of $1.1 billion in 1Q26, $0.7 billion higher compared with 1Q25
The $0.7 billion increase in net income was primarily driven by a smaller net charge related to market experience
and core earnings growth. The net charge from market experience in 1Q26 reflected lower-than-expected returns
on public equity and lower-than-expected returns on alternative long-duration assets, mainly related to real estate,
timber, and private equity investments. The market experience in 1Q25 included a $0.7 billion realized loss related
to the RGA U.S. Reinsurance Transaction from the sale of debt instruments, which was offset by an associated
change in Other Comprehensive Income with a net neutral impact to book value.14
Insurance new business growth momentum continued, with a double-digit increase in new business CSM
across all segments
APE sales, new business CSM and NBV increased 7%, 16%, and 7%, respectively, reflecting the strength
of our diversified business portfolio
•Asia delivered strong growth in APE sales, new business CSM and NBV, with a year-over-year increase of
11%, 15% and 15%, respectively, driven by higher sales volumes and a more favourable business mix,
reflecting growth in Hong Kong, Japan and Singapore across all three new business metrics. NBV margin
improved modestly to 38.2%.5
•Canada APE sales and NBV decreased 15% and 16%, respectively, driven by lower Group Insurance sales,
partially offset by higher Individual Insurance sales. New business CSM increased 13%, reflecting the growth
in Individual Insurance from higher participating life insurance sales.
•In the U.S., APE sales and new business CSM increased 29% and 19%, respectively, reflecting increased
demand for our accumulation insurance products supported by recent product enhancements. NBV decreased
8%, primarily driven by product mix, partially offset by higher sales volumes.
5
Global WAM net outflows of $4.4 billion in 1Q26, compared with net inflows of $0.5 billion in 1Q25
•Retirement net outflows were $2.8 billion in 1Q26 compared with net outflows of $2.6 billion in 1Q25, driven by
higher member withdrawals reflecting higher account balances from market growth and higher retirement plan
redemptions in the U.S., partially offset by lower retirement plan redemptions in Canada.
•Retail net outflows were $5.8 billion in 1Q26 compared with net inflows of $0.5 billion in 1Q25, primarily driven
by higher net outflows in active mutual funds through third-party intermediaries in North America, including a
few large model redemptions in the U.S.
•Institutional Asset Management net inflows were $4.2 billion in 1Q26 compared with net inflows of $2.6 billion
in 1Q25, driven by net flows from the Manulife | Comvest business, and higher net sales from money market
mandates in mainland China and from Manulife | CQS products, partially offset by lower net flows in equity
mandates and lower deployments in private equity mandates.
New business growth continued to drive higher organic CSM and CSM balance
CSM15 was $25,589 million as at March 31, 2026
CSM increased $620 million compared with December 31, 2025. Organic CSM movement contributed $650 million
of the increase, representing an 11% annualized growth in our CSM net of NCI balance16, primarily driven by the
impact of new business, interest accretion and net favourable insurance experience, partially offset by amortization
recognized in core earnings. Inorganic CSM movement was a decrease of $30 million, primarily driven by the
unfavourable impacts of equity market performance and interest rate movements, partially offset by the impacts of
changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Post-tax CSM net of NCI1 was $21,255 million as at March 31, 2026.

Non-GAAP and other financial measures
The Company prepares its Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with IFRS as issued by the
International Accounting Standards Board. We use a number of non-GAAP and other financial measures to
evaluate overall performance and to assess each of our businesses. This section includes information required by
National Instrument 52-112 – Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure in respect of “specified
financial measures” (as defined therein).
Non-GAAP financial measures include core earnings (loss); core earnings available to common shareholders;
core earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“core EBITDA”); core expenses; adjusted book
value; post-tax contractual service margin; post-tax contractual service margin net of NCI (“post-tax CSM net of
NCI”); CSM net of NCI; assets under management (“AUM”); and core revenue. In addition, non-GAAP financial
measures include the following stated on a constant exchange rate (“CER”) basis: any of the foregoing non-GAAP
financial measures; net income attributed to shareholders; and common shareholders’ net income.
Non-GAAP ratios include core return on common shareholders’ equity (“core ROE”); diluted core earnings per
common share (“core EPS”); expense efficiency ratio; adjusted book value per common share; financial leverage
ratio; core EBITDA margin; growth in the CSM net of NCI from organic CSM movement; and percentage growth/
decline on a constant exchange rate basis in any of the above non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP

CSM.
Other specified financial measures include NBV; APE sales; gross flows; net flows; average assets under
management and administration (“average AUMA”); NBV margin; and percentage growth/decline in these
foregoing specified financial measures. In addition, explanations of the components of the CSM movement, other

Non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios are not standardized financial measures under GAAP and,
therefore, might not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other issuers. Therefore, they
should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any other financial information prepared in accordance
with GAAP. For more information on non-GAAP financial measures, including those referred to above, see the
