$MFCPress releaseNov 4, 2026, 5:05 PM ETRead the release

Manulife reported record 3Q26 core earnings of $2.1 billion, up 4% on a CER basis, with core EPS of $1.24 up 6% and a 17.8% core ROE, driven by 17% core earnings growth in Asia. GAAP net income attributed to shareholders fell 22% to $1.4 billion, hit by a $388 million net charge on market experience — mainly weak alternative-asset returns — and a net charge from Vietnam operations including a bancassurance impairment. New business was steady with APE sales of $2.6 billion roughly flat, while Global WAM posted $3.6 billion in net outflows, an improvement from $6.2 billion a year earlier. The balance sheet remains strong with a 136% LICAT ratio and $1.3 billion returned to shareholders.
