Liquidity and Capital On June 30, 2025, DRI Healthcare had cash and cash equivalents of $82.5 million. DRI Healthcare's credit facility had an outstanding principal balance of $344.7 million on June 30, 2025. DRI Healthcare had 55,500,947 Units issued and outstanding on June 30, 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures The reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 to the most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with IFRS are presented below. Total Cash Receipts, Normalized Total Cash Receipts and Total Cash Royalty Receipts Total Cash Receipts refers to Total Cash Royalty Receipts plus cash receipts from all products. Total Cash Receipts includes cash receipts from interest as well as non-recurring cash receipts. Total Cash Royalty Receipts refers to aggregate cash royalty receipts and milestone royalty receipts from DRI Healthcare's portfolio of royalty assets and forms part of Total Cash Receipts. Because of the lag between when DRI Healthcare records royalty income and receives the corresponding cash payments on its royalties and milestones, management believes Total Cash Receipts and Total Cash Royalty Receipts are useful measures when evaluating DRI Healthcare's operations, as they represent actual cash generated in respect of all royalty assets held during a period. DRI Healthcare also presents Normalized Total Cash Receipts, which refers to Total Cash Receipts adjusted to remove cash receipts that are not expected to recur in the normal course of operations. Management believes that Normalized Total Cash Receipts will assist readers in evaluating the period-over-period performance of DRI Healthcare's royalty portfolio since Normalized Total Cash Receipts only includes cash receipts generated by royalties and other amounts payable pursuant to the terms of DRI Healthcare's royalty assets. There were no adjustments required to normalize cash receipts for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin Management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides meaningful information about DRI Healthcare's operating cash flows as it eliminates the effects of other non-cash expenses and accruals and income and expenses that are not expected to recur, that have been recorded on the statement of net earnings (loss) and comprehensive earnings (loss). DRI Healthcare refers to EBITDA when reconciling its net earnings (loss) and comprehensive earnings (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA, but does not use EBITDA as a measure of its performance. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA Margin is a useful supplemental measure to demonstrate the operating efficiency of DRI Healthcare's business on a cash basis. Three months ended Six months ended (thousands of US dollars) June 30, 2025 June 30, 2024 June 30, 2025 June 30, 2024 Comprehensive earnings (loss) (700) (1,905) (2,532) (7,248) [+] Amortization of intangible royalty assets 24,751 25,679 49,496 50,725 [+] Impairment of intangible royalty assets — 820 — 5,200 [-] Other interest income (356) (577) (654) 17,039 [+] Interest expense 9,028 8,641 18,635 — EBITDA 32,723 32,658 64,945 64,417 [+] Royalties receivable, beginning of period 45,006 45,470 62,362 64,082 [-] Royalties receivable, end of period (49,647) (43,542) (49,647) (43,542) [-] Performance fees payable, beginning of period (2,198) (4,916) (1,665) (5,918) [+] Performance fees payable, end of period — — — — [+] Financial royalty assets, beginning of period 55,088 — 57,527 — [-] Financial royalty assets, end of period (54,184) — (54,184) — [+] Unrealized loss (gain) on marketable securities 115 — (1,420) — [+] Acquired royalties receivable — — — 3,560 [+] Unit-based compensation 970 4,675 1,430 7,242 [+] Board of trustees' unit-based compensation 2 452 198 556 552 [+] Loss (Gain) on preferred securities 971 (2,176) 971 (2,176) [-] Other loss — 764 — 1,575 [-] Net unrealized loss (gain) on derivative instruments 1,076 (228) 1,156 (1,425) Adjusted EBITDA 30,372 32,903 82,031 88,367 [÷] Normalized Total Cash Receipts 40,152 42,955 102,142 106,472 Adjusted EBITDA Margin 76 % 77 % 80 % 83 % _______________________________ 2 Certain members of the board of trustees elected to be compensated fully or partially in Deferred Units ("DUs") under DRI Healthcare's Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. Adjusted Cash Earnings per Unit Management believes that Adjusted Cash Earnings per Unit provides meaningful information about DRI Healthcare's performance as it provides a measure of the cash generated by DRI Healthcare's assets on a per Unit basis, excluding cash earnings that are not expected to recur. Corporate Update Further to DRI Healthcare's press release of July 1, 2025, subsequent to end of quarter, DRI Healthcare completed its previously announced transaction to internalize its investment management function. As a result of the transaction, the management agreement with DRI Capital was terminated in exchange for a $48 million termination payment and DRI Healthcare internalized the manager function by acquiring the relevant assets of DRI Capital for a purchase price of $1 million. As a result of the transactions contemplated by the asset purchase agreement, the employees of DRI Capital also transitioned to a subsidiary of DRI Healthcare. DRI Healthcare shares that Mr. Amit Kapur, Chief Financial Officer, will be departing DRI Healthcare at the end of September. "Last summer, Amit graciously stepped in at a pivotal moment, helping to steady DRI Healthcare and lay a stronger foundation. He was instrumental in DRI Healthcare's strategic review, playing a significant leadership role in the evaluation of all options and ultimately facilitating the successful internalization of the manager. On behalf of the board of trustees, the team, and our unitholders, we thank Amit for his exceptional skill and leadership during a demanding period and wish him continued success as he brings that same expertise to his next venture." said Gary Collins, Executive Chair of DRI Healthcare. _____________________ 1 Certain members of the board of trustees elected to be compensated fully or partially in DUs under DRI Healthcare's Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan.

See the "Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures" section in this document for relevant information about such measures. TORONTO and BARBADOS, Aug. 13, 2025 /CNW/ - Sagicor Financial Company Ltd. (TSX: SFC), a leading financial services provider in Canada, the United States, and the Caribbean, today announced its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025. All figures are in US$ unless otherwise stated. Q2 Highlights Core earnings (1) to shareholders of $46.0 million Core basic earnings per share (1) (EPS) of 33.9₵ Core return on shareholders' equity (1) (annualised) of 18.9% Net loss to shareholders of $6.4 million Total comprehensive income to shareholders of $39.8 million New business CSM (1) of $39.2 million Shareholders' equity of $990.3 million, with book value per share of US$7.29 or C$9.94 Shareholders' equity plus net CSM to shareholders (1) of $2.1 billion, or US$15.63 or C$21.32 per share Financial leverage ratio (1) of 27.1% Group LICAT (1) ratio of 141% Dividend of US $0.0675 per common share to be paid during the third quarter of 2025 (US $0.27 annualised dividend) Andre Mousseau, President and Chief Executive Officer, said: "We are pleased to report an outstanding operational quarter for the period ended June 2025. All of our operating segments generated excellent insurance results, resulting in record core earnings (1) to shareholders. New business production (1) was solid across each of our segments. Our U.S. subsidiary continued to grow and surpassed $6 billion of total assets for the first time. Our Canadian business continued to show strong profitability and its contribution reflected the benefit of a recovery in the Canadian dollar. And both of our Caribbean segments showed robust profitability, reflecting the progress the team has made in our initiatives to enhance those businesses. We also continued to progress on our strategic initiatives to transform our businesses which we expect will continue to bear fruit in 2026 and beyond." Overall Sagicor Group – Financial Highlights Sagicor's core earnings (1) to shareholders were $46.0 million for Q2 2025, reflecting strong performance at each of our major operating subsidiaries. Sagicor Canada had a strong quarter with higher expected investment earnings and business growth. Sagicor Life USA, Sagicor Jamaica, and Sagicor Life enjoyed strong underlying results while benefiting from gains in insurance experience. Core head office costs (1) were lower year over year in Q2 due to favorable debt refinancings completed in 2024. Reported net loss to shareholders of $6.4 million reflected negative non-core mark-to-market volatility on insurance assets and liabilities, and currency impact whereby Canadian dollar denominated liabilities are marked-to-market through net income and loss, while the net assets of our Canadian segment are marked-to-market through other comprehensive income. As a result, our total comprehensive income to shareholders of $39.8 million significantly exceeded our reported net loss to shareholders. Sagicor remains well capitalized with a Group LICAT (1) ratio of 141%, an improvement of 4 percentage points Q/Q, and a financial leverage ratio (1) of 27.1%. Consolidated Highlights Outlook and Medium-Term Targets Sagicor is updating its guidance on key measures:* Core earnings (1) to shareholders for 2025 are expected to be $120 million to $130 million; New business CSM (1) for 2025 is targeted at $155 million to $175 million. *Outlook and financial guidance is based on certain assumptions, including business, economic, and market conditions, as of the date hereof. Please refer to Sagicor's Q2 2025 interim MD&A for a discussion of material risks and assumptions. Business Segment Performance Sagicor has four main reporting operating segments: Sagicor Canada (ivari), Sagicor Life USA, Sagicor Jamaica (of which the Company owns 49.1% and is consolidated by the Company), and Sagicor Life (which includes the southern Caribbean). Business Segment - Quarterly Highlights Sagicor Canada New business production (1) of $17.8 million for the quarter was consistent with management expectations, resulting in new business CSM (1) of $11.1 million for the quarter. Core earnings (1) to shareholders of $24.6 million for the quarter decreased $1.4 million, or 5%, from the same quarter in the prior year, reflecting insurance experience gains in the prior year, partially offset by an increase in expected investment earnings. Net income to shareholders of $3.7 million for the quarter was lower than core earnings (1) to shareholders due to unfavorable market-related impacts from higher interest rates. Net CSM (1) was $580.5 million, an increase of 7% Q/Q. Sagicor Life USA Sagicor Life USA's new business production (1) of $283.1 million for the quarter was consistent with internal targets and pushed the segment's assets to $6.4 billion. Core earnings (1) to shareholders for the quarter of $16.3 million increased 114% from the same quarter in the prior year, driven primarily by positive insurance experience and higher expected net investment result. Net loss to shareholders of $0.8 million for the quarter was lower than core earnings (1) to shareholders due to mark-to-market insurance asset and liability market movements and other non-core adjustments to reserving methodologies which increased CSM. Net CSM (1) was $158.6 million, an increase of 3% Q/Q. Sagicor Jamaica Sagicor Jamaica had strong net premium (1) across most business lines and improved margins from repricing of short-term products. Sagicor's share of Sagicor Jamaica's core earnings (1) and net income to shareholders of $14.6 million for the quarter increased over the same quarter in the prior year due to policy enhancement initiatives performed in Q2, favourable claims experience, and increased revenue from policy repricing. Net CSM (1) was $277.1 million, a decline of 2% Q/Q. Sagicor Life Sagicor Life's short-term business continued to benefit from price adjustments while the long-term business had improved insurance experience, leading to the segment's best quarter under IFRS 17. Core earnings (1) to shareholders of $15.5 million increased 89% from the same quarter in the previous year reflecting improved profitability in the short-term business and favorable insurance experience in long-term business. Net income to shareholders of $20.5 million for the quarter was higher than core earnings (1) to shareholders in the quarter primarily due to positive market experience. Net CSM (1) was $259.0 million, an increase of 4% Q/Q. Head Office, Other, and Adjustments Core loss (1) to shareholders was $25.0 million for Q2, an improvement of $1.0 million Y/Y reflecting lower interest costs from favorable debt refinancings completed in 2024. Net loss to shareholders was $44.4 million, reflecting an $18.1 million loss on revaluation of Sagicor's Canadian dollar denominated debt into U.S. dollar. This revaluation was more than offset by a $44.5 million gain in other comprehensive income to shareholders from revaluation of the net asset position of our Canadian segment. As a result, Sagicor's total comprehensive income to shareholders of $39.8 million significantly exceeded reported net loss to shareholders. Dividends On August 13, 2025, the Board of Directors of Sagicor Financial Company Ltd. approved and declared a quarterly dividend of US$ 0.0675 per common share.

Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures The Company reports certain non-IFRS measures and insurance industry metrics that are used to evaluate its performance. As non-IFRS measures generally do not have a standardized meaning, they may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Securities regulators require such measures to be clearly defined and reconciled with their most comparable IFRS measures. These measures are provided as additional information to complement IFRS measures by providing further understanding of the results of the operations of the Company from management's perspective. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation, nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company's financial information reported under IFRS. Non-IFRS measures used to analyze the performance of the Company's businesses are set out below. Please see the discussion below for an explanation or a reconciliation of certain non-IFRS measures. Group Life Insurance Capital Adequacy Test ("Group LICAT"): The Group's goal is to maintain adequate levels, at sufficient margins above minimum regulatory capital requirements, to maintain consumer confidence as well as credit ratings with external rating agencies. Management engages the Board with regards to actions necessary to maintain appropriate capital levels. Sagicor has voluntarily elected to follow OSFI's LICAT Guideline, specifically the latest amendment which became effective January 1, 2025. Core return on shareholders' equity (Core ROE): This measures profitability using core earnings available to common shareholders as a percentage of the capital deployed to earn the core earnings. The Company calculates core ROE using average common shareholders' equity quarterly, as the average of common shareholders' equity at the start and end of the quarter, and annually, as the average of the quarterly average common shareholders' equity for the year. The quarterly Core return on shareholders' equity is annualised. Return on Shareholders' Equity (ROE): IFRS does not prescribe the calculation of return on shareholders' equity and therefore a comparable measure under IFRS is not available. To determine this measure, reported net income/(loss) attributable to shareholders is divided by the average of common shareholders' equity at the start and end of the quarter, and annually, as the average of the quarterly average common shareholders' equity for the year. The quarterly return on shareholders' equity is annualised. This measure provides an indication of overall profitability of the company. Book value per share: To determine the book value per share, shareholders' equity is divided by the number of shares outstanding at the period end, net of any treasury shares. Revenues: Revenues is the sum of three IFRS measures: insurance revenue, net investment income, and fees and other income. Financial leverage ratio: The financial leverage ratio is the ratio of notes and loans payable (refer to note 7 of the Q2 2025 condensed consolidated financial statements) to total capital, as defined below. This ratio measures the proportion of debt the Company uses to finance its operations as compared with its capital. Total capital: This measure provides an indicator for evaluating the Company's performance. Total capital ($3.6 billion as at Q2 2025) is the sum of total shareholders' equity ($990 million), notes and loans payable ($984 million), non-controlling interests ($381 million) and net CSM ($1.3 billion). This measure is the sum of several IFRS measures. New business CSM: This measure is the amount of the contractual service margin added from contracts initially recognized in the period, net of reinsurance. New business production: This measure is equal to the amount of annuities and life insurance new business paid premium. Net CSM: This measure is the balance of the direct contractual service margin net of reinsurance contractual service margin. Net CSM to shareholders: This measure is the amount of the net CSM attributable to shareholders. Net premium: The sum of premiums written by an insurance company, less premiums ceded to reinsurance companies, plus any reinsurance assumed in the reporting period, excluding segregated fund premium. Organic CSM: It is the sum of the following components: Impact of new insurance business ("impact of new business" or "new business CSM") is the impact from insurance contracts initially recognized in the period. It includes the impacts related to policy cancellations and acquisition expenses, and it excludes the impacts of unusual new reinsurance contracts on in-force business which are considered management actions. Expected movement related to finance income or expenses ("interest accretion") includes interest accreted on the CSM during the period and the expected change on VFA contracts if returns are as expected. CSM recognized for service provided ("CSM amortization") is the portion of the CSM that is recognized in net income for service provided in the period; and Insurance experience gains (losses) and other is primarily the change from experience variances that relate to future periods. This includes persistency experience and changes in future period cash flows caused by other current period experience (e.g., policyholder behavior that differs from expectations). Shareholders' equity plus net CSM to shareholders: This measure is the sum of commo n shareholders' equity and Net CSM to shareholders and is an important measure for monitoring growth and measuring insurance businesses' value. Core basic earnings per share (Core Basic EPS): represents core earnings attributable to shareholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. This is a measure to evaluate the Company's capacity to generate sustainable earnings. Core dividend payout ratio: This is the ratio of dividends declared per share to core basic earnings per share. Core earnings: Core earnings is intended to remove from reported earnings or loss the impacts of the following items that create volatility in Sagicor's results under IFRS, or that are considered to be not representative of Sagicor's business operating performance and long-term earnings potential including among others unexpected market-related impacts, changes in assumptions, management actions, certain acquisition or disposition related amounts and others such as one-time costs, amortization of intangibles, and tax effects of the aforementioned items, gross of non-controlling interests. Non-controlling interests on all the aforementioned items are included in Other. Each of these items is classified as a supplementary financial measure and has no directly comparable IFRS financial measure disclosed in Sagicor's financial statements to which the measure relates, nor are reconciliations available. The core earnings to shareholders can be reconciled to net income to shareholders as follows: Net Income and Core Earnings Reconciliation (US$ millions) Sagicor Q2 2025 Q2 2024 YTD 2025 YTD 2024 Net income to shareholders (6.4) (40.2) 0.3 (14.0) Market experience gains and losses 42.2 55.1 50.5 38.4 Changes in actuarial methods and assumptions (1.3) 2.2 (1.3) 6.5 Other (1) 11.5 8.2 26.2 8.0 Core earnings to shareholders 46.0 25.3 75.7 38.9 Sagicor Canada Q2 2025 Q2 2024 YTD 2025 YTD 2024 Net income to shareholders 3.7 20.4 14.6 25.6 Market experience gains and losses 17.9 7.6 31.6 18.4 Changes in actuarial methods and assumptions - - - - Other (1) 3.0 (2.0) 3.0 (1.0) Core earnings to shareholders 24.6 26.0 49.2 43.0 Sagicor Life USA Q2 2025 Q2 2024 YTD 2025 YTD 2024 Net income to shareholders (0.8) (26.9) (0.9) 10.2 Market experience gains and losses 13.5 29.3 19.9 2.4 Changes in actuarial methods and assumptions (1.3) 2.2 (1.3) 2.2 Other (1) 4.9 2.9 4.9 0.3 Core earnings to shareholders 16.3 7.6 22.6 15.1 Sagicor Jamaica Q2 2025 Q2 2024 YTD 2025 YTD 2024 Net income to shareholders 14.6 9.4 27.1 12.6 Market experience gains and losses 1.0 (0.7) (10.2) 1.7 Changes in actuarial methods and assumptions - - - 4.3 Other (1) (1.0) 0.8 7.2 (1.0) Core earnings to shareholders 14.6 9.5 24.1 17.6 Sagicor Life Q2 2025 Q2 2024 YTD 2025 YTD 2024 Net income to shareholders 20.5 2.2 28.2 12.0 Market experience gains and losses (5.8) 13.6 (3.1) 10.3 Changes in actuarial methods and assumptions - - - - Other (1) 0.8 (7.6) 1.2 (8.8) Core earnings to shareholders 15.5 8.2 26.3 13.5 Head Office (2) Q2 2025 Q2 2024 YTD 2025 YTD 2024 Net income to shareholders (44.4) (45.3) (68.7) (74.4) Market experience gains and losses 15.6 5.2 12.3 5.6 Changes in actuarial methods and assumptions - - - - Other (1) 3.8 14.2 10.0 18.5 Core earnings to shareholders (25.0) (26.0) (46.5) (50.3) ___________________________ 1 Other includes acquisition, integration, and restructuring, intangible asset amortization and impairment, loan financing transaction cost and fees, (loss) / gain on divestiture, tax-related items and other. 2 Head office includes parent company financing costs, administrative expenses, and its investment interest in Playa Hotels and Resorts.

TORONTO and BRIDGETOWN, Barbados, May 13, 2025 /CNW/ - Sagicor Financial Company Ltd. (TSX: SFC), a leading financial services provider in Canada, the United States, and the Caribbean, today announced its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025. All figures are in US$ unless otherwise stated. Q1 Highlights Andre Mousseau, President and Chief Executive Officer, said: "We are pleased to announce another solid quarter in Q1. Our quarterly core earnings (1) to shareholders were our highest on record since our conversion to IFRS 17 in 2023. Both of our Caribbean segments showed significant progress expanding margins and growing core earnings (1) to shareholders year over year. Our U.S. business continued its strong growth with over $400 million of new annuity production (1) and our Canadian segment showed robust profitability. This performance puts us in a strong position to weather market volatility and achieve our targets for 2025." Overall Sagicor Group – Financial Highlights Sagicor's core earnings (1) to shareholders of $29.7 million for Q1 2025 were significantly stronger than Q1 2024 and are representative of the underlying strength of our business. Strong growth momentum at Sagicor Canada, Sagicor Jamaica, and Sagicor Life benefited from solid sales contribution across all product lines, improved margins on short-term businesses, and insurance experience reverting toward expectations. Sagicor Life USA had a strong quarter with $411.3 million in new business production (1) which resulted in an improvement in expected investment earnings as that segment continues to successfully grow its asset base. Core head office costs (1) were lower during Q1 due to favorable debt refinancings completed in 2024. Sagicor remains well capitalized with a Group LICAT (1) ratio of 137%, and a financial leverage ratio (1) of 27.2%. Consolidated Highlights Business Segment Performance Sagicor has four main reporting operating segments: Sagicor Canada (ivari), Sagicor Life USA, Sagicor Jamaica (of which the Company owns 49.1% and is consolidated by the Company), and Sagicor Life (which includes the southern Caribbean).

Core earnings (1) to shareholders of $24.6 million for the quarter increased $7.7 million, or 46%, from the same quarter in the prior year, driven by higher core net investment result and insurance experience reverting toward expectations. Net income to shareholders of $10.9 million for the quarter was lower than core earnings (1) to shareholders due to unfavorable equity returns. Net CSM (1) was $541.2 million, an increase of 1% Q/Q. Sagicor Life USA Sagicor Life USA's new business production (1) of $411.3 million for the quarter was higher than prior year due to competitive crediting rates and market momentum for investment-type products. Core earnings (1) to shareholders for the quarter of $6.3 million decreased 17% from the same quarter in the prior year, driven primarily by unfavorable insurance experience on the legacy life block. Net loss to shareholders of $0.1 million for the quarter was lower than core earnings (1) to shareholders due to unfavorable market-related impacts. Net CSM (1) was $153.3 million, a decrease of 1% Q/Q. Sagicor Jamaica Sagicor Jamaica had strong net premium (1) across all product lines as compared to Q1 2024. Sagicor Jamaica's core earnings (1) to shareholders of $9.5 million for the quarter increased over the same quarter in the prior year due to improved margins and reserve release on the short-term business and higher interest income from the growing loans portfolio at its bank. Sagicor's share of Sagicor Jamaica's net income to shareholders of $12.5 million for the quarter was positively impacted by improved mark-to-market gains. Net CSM (1) was $281.6 million, a decline of under 1% Q/Q. Sagicor Life Sagicor Life's short-term business benefited from repricing initiatives on renewals while the long-term business had favorable insurance experience. Core earnings (1) to shareholders of $10.8 million doubled the Q1 2024 result reflecting improved profitability in the short-term business and favorable insurance experience in both the short-term and long-term businesses. Net income to shareholders of $7.7 million for the quarter was lower than core earnings to shareholders in the quarter primarily due to rising interest rates impacting mark-to-market loss on our fixed income portfolio partly offset by gain on the valuation of assets. Net CSM (1) was $248.8 million, a slight increase Q/Q. Head Office, Other and Adjustments Core loss (1) to shareholders was $21.5 million for Q1, an improvement of $2.7 million Y/Y reflecting lower interest costs from favorable debt refinancings completed in 2024. Net loss to shareholders was $24.3 million.

Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures The Company reports certain non-IFRS measures and insurance industry metrics that are used to evaluate its performance. As non-IFRS measures generally do not have a standardized meaning, they may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Securities regulators require such measures to be clearly defined and reconciled with their most comparable IFRS measures.

Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation, nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company's financial information reported under IFRS. Non-IFRS measures used to analyze the performance of the Company's businesses are set out below. Please see the discussion below for an explanation or a reconciliation of certain non-IFRS measures. Minimum Continuing Capital and Surplus Requirements ("MCCSR"): Sagicor voluntarily adopted the MCCSR standard as its risk-based assessment measure to provide a consolidated view of capital adequacy. The MCCSR was a standard used by OSFI from 1992 until 2018, when it was superseded by LICAT. When it was in place, OSFI established a supervisory minimum Total Ratio of 150% under MCCSR. Canadian practices for calculation of the MCCSR evolved and changed from inception through its replacement. Sagicor has made certain interpretations in our calculation of the MCCSR, in consultation with our appointed actuary, which we believe appropriately reflect the risk-based assessment of our capital position, including accounting for CSM in MCCSR. Group Life Insurance Capital Adequacy Test ("Group LICAT"): The Group's goal is to maintain adequate levels, at sufficient margins above minimum regulatory capital requirements, to maintain consumer confidence as well as credit ratings with external rating agencies. Management engages the Board with regards to actions necessary to maintain appropriate capital levels.

Total capital ($3.5 billion as at Q1 2025) is the sum of total shareholders' equity ($958 million), notes and loans payable ($954 million), non-controlling interests ($365 million) and net CSM ($1.2 billion). This measure is the sum of several IFRS measures. New business CSM: This measure is the amount of the contractual service margin added from contracts initially recognized in the period, net of reinsurance.

Net CSM: This measure is the balance of the direct contractual service margin net of reinsurance contractual service margin.

(TSX: SFC), a leading financial services provider in Canada, the United States, and the Caribbean, today announced its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025. All figures are in US$ unless otherwise stated. Q1 Highlights Core earnings(1) to shareholders of $29.7 million Core basic earnings per share(1) (EPS) of 21.9₵ Core return on shareholders' equity(1) (annualised) of 12.4% Net income to shareholders of $6.7 million New business CSM(1) of $46.1 million Shareholders' equity of $958.2 million, with book value per share of US$7.05 or C$10.14 Shareholders' equity plus net CSM to shareholders(1) of $2.0 billion, or US$15.01 or C$21.59 per share Financial leverage ratio(1) of 27.2% Group LICAT(1) ratio of 137% Dividend of US$ 6.75₵ per common share to be paid during the second quarter of 2025 (US$ 27.0₵ annualised dividend) Andre Mousseau, President and Chief Executive Officer, said: "We are pleased to announce another solid quarter in Q1. Our quarterly core earnings(1) to shareholders were our highest on record since our conversion to IFRS 17 in 2023. Both of our Caribbean segments showed significant progress expanding margins and growing core earnings(1) to shareholders year over year. Our U.S. business continued its strong growth with over $400 million of new annuity production(1) and our Canadian segment showed robust profitability. This performance puts us in a strong position to weather market volatility and achieve our targets for 2025." Overall Sagicor Group – Financial Highlights Sagicor's core earnings(1) to shareholders of $29.7 million for Q1 2025 were significantly stronger than Q1 2024 and are representative of the underlying strength of our business. Strong growth momentum at Sagicor Canada, Sagicor Jamaica, and Sagicor Life benefited from solid sales contribution across all product lines, improved margins on short-term businesses, and insurance experience reverting toward expectations. Sagicor Life USA had a strong quarter with $411.3 million in new business production(1) which resulted in an improvement in expected investment earnings as that segment continues to successfully grow its asset base. Core head office costs(1) were lower during Q1 due to favorable debt refinancings completed in 2024. Sagicor remains well capitalized with a Group LICAT(1) ratio of 137%, and a financial leverage ratio(1) of 27.2%.

Core earnings(1) to shareholders of $24.6 million for the quarter increased $7.7 million, or 46%, from the same quarter in the prior year, driven by higher core net investment result and insurance experience reverting toward expectations. Net income to shareholders of $10.9 million for the quarter was lower than core earnings(1) to shareholders due to unfavorable equity returns. Net CSM(1) was $541.2 million, an increase of 1% Q/Q. Sagicor Life USA Sagicor Life USA's new business production(1) of $411.3 million for the quarter was higher than prior year due to competitive crediting rates and market momentum for investment-type products. Core earnings(1) to shareholders for the quarter of $6.3 million decreased 17% from the same quarter in the prior year, driven primarily by unfavorable insurance experience on the legacy life block. Net loss to shareholders of $0.1 million for the quarter was lower than core earnings(1) to shareholders due to unfavorable market-related impacts. Net CSM(1) was $153.3 million, a decrease of 1% Q/Q. Sagicor Jamaica Sagicor Jamaica had strong net premium(1) across all product lines as compared to Q1 2024. Sagicor Jamaica's core earnings(1) to shareholders of $9.5 million for the quarter increased over the same quarter in the prior year due to improved margins and reserve release on the short-term business and higher interest income from the growing loans portfolio at its bank. Sagicor's share of Sagicor Jamaica's net income to shareholders of $12.5 million for the quarter was positively impacted by improved mark-to-market gains. Net CSM(1) was $281.6 million, a decline of under 1% Q/Q. Sagicor Life Sagicor Life's short-term business benefited from repricing initiatives on renewals while the long-term business had favorable insurance experience. Core earnings(1) to shareholders of $10.8 million doubled the Q1 2024 result reflecting improved profitability in the short-term business and favorable insurance experience in both the short-term and long-term businesses. Net income to shareholders of $7.7 million for the quarter was lower than core earnings to shareholders in the quarter primarily due to rising interest rates impacting mark-to-market loss on our fixed income portfolio partly offset by gain on the valuation of assets. Net CSM(1) was $248.8 million, a slight increase Q/Q. Head Office, Other and Adjustments Core loss(1) to shareholders was $21.5 million for Q1, an improvement of $2.7 million Y/Y reflecting lower interest costs from favorable debt refinancings completed in 2024. Net loss to shareholders was $24.3 million. Dividends On May 13, 2025, the Board of Directors of Sagicor Financial Company Ltd. approved and declared a quarterly dividend of US$ 6.75₵ per common share. This quarterly dividend will be paid on June 16, 2025, to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 26, 2025.

Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures The Company reports certain non-IFRS measures and insurance industry metrics that are used to evaluate its performance. As non-IFRS measures generally do not have a standardized meaning, they may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Securities regulators require such measures to be clearly defined and reconciled with their most comparable IFRS measures. These measures are provided as additional information to complement IFRS measures by providing further understanding of the results of the operations of the Company from management's perspective. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation, nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company's financial information reported under IFRS. Non-IFRS measures used to analyze the performance of the Company's businesses are set out below. Please see the discussion below for an explanation or a reconciliation of certain non-IFRS measures. Minimum Continuing Capital and Surplus Requirements ("MCCSR"): Sagicor voluntarily adopted the MCCSR standard as its risk-based assessment measure to provide a consolidated view of capital adequacy. The MCCSR was a standard used by OSFI from 1992 until 2018, when it was superseded by LICAT. When it was in place, OSFI established a supervisory minimum Total Ratio of 150% under MCCSR. Canadian practices for calculation of the MCCSR evolved and changed from inception through its replacement. Sagicor has made certain interpretations in our calculation of the MCCSR, in consultation with our appointed actuary, which we believe appropriately reflect the risk-based assessment of our capital position, including accounting for CSM in MCCSR. Group Life Insurance Capital Adequacy Test ("Group LICAT"): The Group's goal is to maintain adequate levels, at sufficient margins above minimum regulatory capital requirements, to maintain consumer confidence as well as credit ratings with external rating agencies. Management engages the Board with regards to actions necessary to maintain appropriate capital levels. Sagicor has voluntarily elected to follow OSFI's LICAT Guideline, specifically the latest amendment which became effective January 1, 2025. Core return on shareholders' equity (Core ROE): This measures profitability using core earnings available to common shareholders as a percentage of the capital deployed to earn the core earnings. The Company calculates core ROE using average common shareholders' equity quarterly, as the average of common shareholders' equity at the start and end of the quarter, and annually, as the average of the quarterly average common shareholders' equity for the year. The quarterly Core return on shareholders' equity is annualised. Return on Shareholders' Equity (ROE): IFRS does not prescribe the calculation of return on shareholders' equity and therefore a comparable measure under IFRS is not available. To determine this measure, reported net income/(loss) attributable to shareholders is divided by the average of common shareholders' equity at the start and end of the quarter, and annually, as the average of the quarterly average common shareholders' equity for the year. The quarterly return on shareholders' equity is annualised. This measure provides an indication of overall profitability of the company. Book value per share: To determine the book value per share, shareholders' equity is divided by the number of shares outstanding at the period end, net of any treasury shares. Revenues: Revenues is the sum of three IFRS measures: insurance revenue, net investment income, and fees and other income. Financial leverage ratio: The financial leverage ratio is the ratio of notes and loans payable (refer to note 7 of the Q1 2025 condensed consolidated financial statements) to total capital, as defined below. This ratio measures the proportion of debt the Company uses to finance its operations as compared with its capital. Total capital: This measure provides an indicator for evaluating the Company's performance. Total capital ($3.5 billion as at Q1 2025) is the sum of total shareholders' equity ($958 million), notes and loans payable ($954 million), non-controlling interests ($365 million) and net CSM ($1.2 billion). This measure is the sum of several IFRS measures. New business CSM: This measure is the amount of the contractual service margin added from contracts initially recognized in the period, net of reinsurance. New business production: This measure is equal to the amount of annuities and life insurance new business paid premium. Net CSM: This measure is the balance of the direct contractual service margin net of reinsurance contractual service margin. Net CSM to shareholders: This measure is the amount of the net CSM attributable to shareholders. Net premium: The sum of premiums written by an insurance company, less premiums ceded to reinsurance companies, plus any reinsurance assumed in the reporting period, excluding segregated fund premium. Organic CSM: It is the sum of the following components: Impact of new insurance business ("impact of new business" or "new business CSM") is the impact from insurance contracts initially recognized in the period. It includes the impacts related to policy cancellations and acquisition expenses, and it excludes the impacts of unusual new reinsurance contracts on in-force business which are considered management actions. Expected movement related to finance income or expenses ("interest accretion") includes interest accreted on the CSM during the period and the expected change on VFA contracts if returns are as expected. CSM recognized for service provided ("CSM amortization") is the portion of the CSM that is recognized in net income for service provided in the period; and Insurance experience gains (losses) and other is primarily the change from experience variances that relate to future periods. This includes persistency experience and changes in future period cash flows caused by other current period experience (e.g., policyholder behavior that differs from expectations). Shareholders' equity plus net CSM to shareholders: This measure is the sum of common shareholders' equity and Net CSM to shareholders and is an important measure for monitoring growth and measuring insurance businesses' value. Core basic earnings per share (Core Basic EPS): represents core earnings attributable to shareholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. This is a measure to evaluate the Company's capacity to generate sustainable earnings. Core dividend payout ratio: This is the ratio of dividends declared per share to core basic earnings per share. Core earnings: Core earnings is intended to remove from reported earnings or loss the impacts of the following items that create volatility in Sagicor's results under IFRS, or that are considered to be not representative of Sagicor's business operating performance and long-term earnings potential including among others unexpected market-related impacts, changes in assumptions, management actions, certain acquisition or disposition related amounts and others such as one-time costs, amortization of intangibles, and tax effects of the aforementioned items, gross of non-controlling interests. Non-controlling interests on all the aforementioned items are included in Other. Each of these items is classified as a supplementary financial measure and has no directly comparable IFRS financial measure disclosed in Sagicor's financial statements to which the measure relates, nor are reconciliations available. The core earnings to shareholders can be reconciled to net income to shareholders as follows: Net Income and Core Earnings Reconciliation (US$ millions) Sagicor Q1 2025 Q1 2024 Net income to shareholders 6.7 26.2 Market experience gains and losses 8.3 (16.7) Changes in actuarial methods and assumptions - 4.3 Other(1) 14.7 (0.4) Core earnings to shareholders 29.7 13.5 Sagicor Canada Q1 2025 Q1 2024 Net income to shareholders 10.9 5.2 Market experience gains and losses 13.7 10.8 Changes in actuarial methods and assumptions - - Other(1) - 0.9 Core earnings to shareholders 24.6 16.9 Sagicor Life USA Q1 2025 Q1 2024 Net income to shareholders (0.1) 37.1 Market experience gains and losses 6.4 (26.9) Changes in actuarial methods and assumptions - - Other(1) - (2.6) Core earnings to shareholders 6.3 7.6 Sagicor Jamaica Q1 2025 Q1 2024 Net income to shareholders 12.5 3.2 Market experience gains and losses (11.2) 2.4 Changes in actuarial methods and assumptions - 4.3 Other(1) 8.2 (1.9) Core earnings to shareholders 9.5 8.0 Sagicor Life Q1 2025 Q1 2024 Net income to shareholders 7.7 9.8 Market experience gains and losses 2.7 (3.3) Changes in actuarial methods and assumptions - - Other(1) 0.4 (1.3) Core earnings to shareholders 10.8 5.2 Head Office(2) Q1 2025 Q1 2024 Net income to shareholders (24.3) (29.1) Market experience gains and losses (3.3) 0.4 Changes in actuarial methods and assumptions - - Other(1) 6.1 4.5 Core earnings to shareholders (21.5) (24.2) _______________________ 1Other includes acquisition, integration, and restructuring, intangible asset amortization and impairment, loan financing transaction cost and fees, (loss) / gain on divestiture, tax-related items and other. 2Head office includes parent company financing costs, administrative expenses, and its investment interest in Playa Hotels and Resorts.

DRI Healthcare Trust Reports First Quarter 2025 Results and Announces Internalization of Manager
Definitive agreements for internalization transaction entered into with manager, estimated to deliver $200 million in cumulative savings over 10 years1 Portfolio assets generate second highest cash receipts and Adjusted EBITDA since IPO Normal course issuer bid reactivated with ability to purchase over 3 million units TORONTO, May 12, 2025 /CNW/ - DRI Healthcare Trust (TSX: (TSX: DHT.U) (the "Trust") today announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The Trust's first quarter 2025 financial statements and Management's Discussion & Analysis ("MD&A") have been filed on SEDAR+ ( All dollar amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated. "We are excited to announce that we have entered into definitive agreements for a transaction that will terminate the existing management agreement with our manager, and allow the Trust to internalize the investment management function," said Gary Collins, the Trust's Chief Executive Officer and Chairman. "We believe this evolutionary step forward will create alignment of interests and transparency for all stakeholders, and is intended to generate value for unitholders. We have a robust pipeline backed by a portfolio that continues to increase and produce significant returns. At the same time, we will opportunistically allocate capital towards unit buybacks via our renewed normal course issuer bid to ensure accretive value generation on a per unit basis." Internalization Transaction In accordance with the definitive management agreement termination agreement and asset purchase agreement entered into by the Trust and DRI Capital Inc. (the "manager" or "DRI Capital") on the date hereof, the Trust will pay an aggregate of $49 million in cash to DRI Capital to extinguish the management agreement, along with all management and performance fee obligations (with expenses payable in connection with the pre-closing period payable by the Trust), and to acquire all the relevant assets of DRI Capital. As a result of this transaction, employees of the manager will also transition over to a Trust subsidiary. This simplified structure is intended to generate strategic, financial, and operational benefits and accretive value over the long term. Furthermore, the manager will indemnify the Trust and its affiliates for any damages relating to the events of last summer. The internalization transaction was recommended for approval by a special committee of the Trust's board composed of independent trustees. The amount paid reflects an approximately 4x multiple of trailing twelve month management fees and compares favourably to precedent transactions. Subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, the transaction is expected to close before the beginning of the fourth quarter of 2025. Q1 Highlights Completed the funding of the Orserdu II milestone payment of $10 million. Total Income of $44.0 million; Normalized Total Cash Receipts of $62.0 million2; Adjusted EBITDA of $51.7 million2; Comprehensive Loss of $1.8 million; Adjusted Cash Earnings per Unit of $0.43 (basic and diluted)1,2; Paid a quarterly cash distribution of US$0.10 per Unit on April 17, 2025. ______________________________________________ 1 Based on the manager's current estimate of management fees and performance fees payable over the next 10 years assuming the existing management agreement would be renewed in accordance with its terms after the initial December 31, 2030 term, and with projected capital deployment into deals at comparable historical returns using organically generated cash from the royalties and credit capacity consistent with current debt terms. 2 Normalized Total Cash Receipts and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted Cash Earnings per Unit is a non-GAAP ratio. These measures are not standardized measures under IFRS and might not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other issuers. The reconciliation of these measures can be found later in this press release and in the Trust's MD&A. Subsequent to Quarter End Received Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") approval for normal course issuer bid to allow the Trust to acquire up to 3,148,536 of its Trust units between May 20, 2025 and May 19, 2026. Declared a quarterly cash distribution of US$0.10 per unit for the second quarter of 2025, payable on July 18, 2025 to unitholders of record on June 30, 2025.

These measures are not standardized measures under IFRS and might not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other issuers. The reconciliation of these measures can be found later in this press release and in the Trust's MD&A. Liquidity and Capital On March 31, 2025, the Trust had cash and cash equivalents of $55.7 million. The Trust's credit facility had an outstanding principal balance of $309.9 million on March 31, 2025. Subsequent to March 31, 2025, the Trust revised the credit facility to obtain lender consent for internalization. In addition, $25 million of the acquisition credit facility was reallocated to the working capital credit facility, increasing it to $50 million. Furthermore, the interest rate on the amended credit agreement was revised to SOFR plus (i) a margin which may vary from 1.75% to 2.50% based on the Trust's leverage ratio; and (ii) a margin of 0.10%. The Trust had 56,310,920 units issued and outstanding on March 31, 2025. Distributions On March 3, 2025, the board of trustees approved a quarterly cash distribution of $0.10 per Unit to unitholders of record as of March 31, 2025, which was paid on April 17, 2025. The Trust also announced today that its board of trustees has declared a quarterly cash distribution in the amount of $0.10 per Unit for the second quarter of 2025, payable on July 18, 2025, to unitholders of record as of June 30, 2025. Normal Course Issuer Bid The Trust also announced today the acceptance by the TSX of the Trust's Notice of Intention to make a normal course issuer bid (the "NCIB"). Pursuant to the NCIB, the Trust proposes to purchase, from time to time, if considered advisable, up to an aggregate of 3,148,536 of its trust units, being 10% of its 31,485,368 public float of units as of May 5, 2025, through the facilities of the TSX and/or through various eligible alternative Canadian trading systems at the market price at the time of purchase. The Trust had 56,310,920 units issued and outstanding as of such date. Purchases may commence on May 20, 2025 and will conclude on the earlier of the date on which the Trust has purchased the maximum number of trust units permitted under the NCIB and May 19, 2026. The average daily trading volume of the units over the most recently completed six calendar months was 43,352 units. Accordingly, for purposes of the TSX rules, the Trust is entitled to purchase, on any trading day, up to 10,838 units and to make block purchases of its units which exceed such daily limit no more frequently than once per calendar week. Under the Trust's prior normal course issuer bid that commenced on November 20, 2023 and concluded on November 19, 2024 (the "Prior NCIB"), the Trust obtained approval from the TSX to purchase 3,280,195 units. The Trust purchased 406,346 units under the Prior NCIB through the facilities of the TSX and alternative Canadian trading systems at a volume weighted average price of $9.64 per unit. The Trust remains focused on its primary strategy of acquiring new pharmaceutical royalty streams and using its capital for that purpose. DRI Capital Inc., the manager of the Trust ("DRI Capital"), believes that there is a robust and growing pipeline of royalty stream acquisitions opportunities and is active in reviewing a number of potential transactions. However, it is also the opinion of DRI Capital that, from time to time, the market price of the Trust's units may not adequately reflect the value of the underlying assets of the Trust, and the Trust wishes to take advantage of the market trading prices of its units in those instances. The board of trustees of the Trust believes that at such times the proposed purchases would be in the best interests of the Trust and would constitute an appropriate use of available funds. All units purchased by the Trust pursuant to the NCIB will be cancelled. In connection with the NCIB, the Trust will establish an automatic purchase plan with its designated broker (the "Plan") to allow for purchases of units during self-imposed blackout periods, subject to certain parameters as to price and number of units. Outside of these pre- determined black-out periods, units will be repurchased in accordance with management's discretion, subject to applicable law. The Plan will constitute an automatic plan for purposes of applicable Canadian securities legislation and has been pre-cleared by the TSX. First Quarter 2025 Conference Call & Webcast As previously announced, management will hold a conference call on Tuesday, May 13, 2025 at 8:00 a.m. (ET) to review the Trust's 2025 first quarter results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures The reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 to the most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with IFRS are presented below. Total Cash Royalty Receipts, Total Cash Receipts and Normalized Total Cash Receipts Total Cash Receipts refer to Total Cash Royalty Receipts plus cash receipts from all products. Total Cash Receipts include cash receipts from interest as well as non-recurring cash receipts. Total Cash Royalty Receipts refers to aggregate cash royalty receipts and milestone royalty receipts from the Trust's portfolio of royalty assets and forms part of Total Cash Receipts. Because of the lag between when the Trust records royalty income and receives the corresponding cash payments on its royalties and milestones, management believes Total Cash Receipts and Total Cash Royalty Receipts are useful measures when evaluating the Trust's operations, as they represent actual cash generated in respect of all royalty assets held during a period. The Trust also presents Normalized Total Cash Receipts, which refers to Total Cash Receipts adjusted to remove cash receipts that are not expected to recur in the normal course of our operations. Management believes that Normalized Total Cash Receipts will assist readers in evaluating the period over period performance of the Trust's royalty portfolio since Normalized Total Cash Receipts only include cash receipts generated by royalties and other amounts payable pursuant to the terms of the Trust's royalty assets. There were no adjustments required to normalize cash receipts for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and months ended (thousands of US dollars) March 31, 2025 March 31, 2024 Total income 44,028 42,067 [-] Other interest income (298) (722) [-] Unrealized gain on marketable securities (1,535) — [+] Royalties receivable, beginning of period 62,362 64,082 [-] Royalties receivable, end of period (45,006) (45,470) [+] Financial royalty asset, beginning of period 57,527 — [-] Financial royalty asset, end of period (55,088) — [+] Acquired royalties receivable1 — 3,560 Total Cash Royalty Receipts, Royalty Cash Receipts and Normalized Cash Receipts 61,990 63,517 ______________________________________________ 1 Acquired royalties receivable represent the Trust's royalty entitlements prior to the completion of the royalty transactions they relate to. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin Management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides meaningful information about the Trust's operating cash flows as it eliminates the effects of other non-cash expenses and accruals and income and expenses that are not expected to recur, that have been recorded on the statement of net earnings (loss) and comprehensive earnings (loss). The Trust refers to EBITDA when reconciling its comprehensive earnings (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA but does not use EBITDA as a measure of its performance. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA Margin is a useful supplemental measure to demonstrate the operating efficiency of the Trust's business on a cash months ended (thousands of US dollars) March 31, 2025 March 31, 2024 Comprehensive earnings (loss) (1,832) (5,343) [+] Amortization or royalty assets 24,745 25,046 [+] Impairment of royalty assets — 4,380 [-] Other interest income (298) (722) [+] Interest expense 9,607 8,398 EBITDA 32,222 31,759 [+] Royalties receivable, beginning of period 62,362 64,082 [-] Royalties receivable, end of period (45,006) (45,470) [-] Performance fees payable, beginning of period (1,665) (5,918) [+] Performance fees payable, end of period 2,198 4,916 [+] Financial royalty assets, beginning of period 57,527 — [-] Financial royalty assets, end of period (55,088) — [+] Unrealized loss (gain) on marketable securities (1,535) — [+] Acquired royalties receivable1 — 3,560 [+] Unit-based compensation2 460 2,567 [+] Board of trustees unit-based compensation 104 354 [-] Other loss — 811 [-] Net unrealized loss (gain) on derivative instruments 80 (1,197) Adjusted EBITDA 51,659 55,464 [÷] Normalized Total Cash Receipts 61,990 63,517 Adjusted EBITDA Margin 83 % 87 % _________________________________________________ 1 Acquired royalties receivable represent the Trust's royalty entitlements prior to the completion of the royalty transactions they relate to, as described under the Transactions Completed section of the MD&A. 2 Certain members of the board of trustees elected to be compensated fully or partially in deferred units ("DUs") under the Trust's Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. Adjusted Cash Earnings per Unit Management believes that Adjusted Cash Earnings per Unit provides meaningful information about the Trust's performance as it provides a measure of the cash generated by the Trust's assets on a per unit basis, excluding cash earnings that are not expected to months ended (thousands of US dollars, except per unit amounts) March 31, 2025 March 31, 2024 Comprehensive earnings (loss) (1,832) (5,343) [+] Amortization or royalty assets 24,745 25,046 [+] Impairment of royalty assets — 4,380 [+] Unrealized loss (gain) on marketable securities (1,535) — [+] Unit-based compensation 460 2,567 [+] Board of trustees unit-based compensation1 104 354 [-] Change in fair value of financial royalty assets (2,561) — [+] Cash receipts on financial royalty assets 5,000 — [-] Other loss — 811 [-] Net unrealized loss (gain) on derivative instruments 80 (1,197) Adjusted Cash Earnings 24,461 26,618 Adjusted Cash Earnings per Basic Unit 0.43 0.47 Adjusted Cash Earnings per Fully Diluted Unit 0.43 0.47 Weighted average number of Units – Basic 56,307,817 56,358,240 Weighted average number of Units – Diluted 56,307,817 56,358,240 ________________________________________________ 1 Certain members of the board of trustees elected to be compensated fully or partially in DUs under the Trust's Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan.
