As of November 30, 2024, Victory Capital had total assets under management of $179.7 billion and $184.0 billion in total client assets.

The share repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. This move comes as Victory Capital aims to remain flexible and opportunistic with its capital, supporting its strategy for increasing earnings and cash flow. The company's capital allocation strategy directly aligns with its growth objectives and the ability to return capital to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends.
