For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026, U.S. Global Investors reported total operating revenues of $10.25 million, up 21.3% year-over-year from $8.45 million in fiscal 2025. Total Assets Under Management (AUM) reached $1.67 billion, an increase of 26.3% compared to $1.32 billion in the prior year, driven primarily by market appreciation in gold, natural resources, and airline-focused funds (including the JETS ETF). Operating expenses fell 5.1% to $10.85 million, narrowing the operating loss to $603,000 from $2.99 million. Net income swung to $3.06 million ($0.24 per diluted share) from a net loss of $334,000 in fiscal 2025, buoyed by $4.15 million in net investment income from corporate investments. Management disclosed a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting concerning spreadsheet review controls and weighted-average share count calculations for earnings per share.
The filing reflects improving operational leverage from specialized thematic ETFs and precious metals strategies, offset by governance and control scrutiny following a reported material weakness in financial reporting review controls.

10-Q Financial Filing Analysis for T. Rowe Price (2026-07-31)
T. Rowe Price reported strong second-quarter 2026 financial results, with net revenues rising 10.7% year-over-year to $1.91 billion and net operating income expanding 13.0% to $540.5 million. Growth was driven by an 11.3% increase in investment advisory fees to $1.74 billion, bolstered by higher market valuations that lifted average Assets Under Management (AUM) by 15.7% to $1.84 trillion. Ending AUM reached $1.89 trillion, supported by $190.2 billion in net market appreciation despite $6.5 billion in net client outflows during the quarter. Operating expenses increased 9.8% to $1.37 billion, largely due to higher compensation expenses tied to market valuation increases on deferred compensation liabilities, partially offset by ongoing cost-discipline initiatives. Net income attributable to T. Rowe Price Group rose 25.1% to $632.0 million ($2.88 diluted EPS). The firm maintained robust liquidity of $6.99 billion across cash and product investments while returning $1.07 billion to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases in the first half of 2026.
