Business developments:
•During the quarter, we made significant progress in scaling our ETF franchise, an important component of our long-term growth strategy
–In June, our active ETF platform surpassed $1 billion in AUM. This milestone demonstrates the increasing scale of our ETF platform, expansion of our distribution reach and positions ETFs as a meaningful contributor to future organic growth.
–We successfully converted the Cohen & Steers Future of Energy Fund (MLOIX) into the Cohen & Steers Future of Energy Active ETF (CSEN), which is now listed on Nasdaq.
–We filed a registration statement with the SEC for the Cohen & Steers Real Assets Active ETF, which is expected to launch in the third quarter of 2026. Upon launch, the fund would expand our ETF lineup to seven offerings, further broadening investor access to our core real assets capabilities and supporting the continued growth of our business.
•Our European listed fund platform has surpassed $2 billion in AUM, reflecting the continued momentum of our international growth strategy. Consistent with our initiative to broaden these offerings, in May we announced that three of our European listed funds focused on global listed infrastructure, global real estate, and real assets received regulatory approval for marketing and distribution to eligible investors in South Africa. These approvals expand access to our real assets capabilities, deepen our international distribution footprint, and position the firm to capture additional opportunities for future AUM growth.
•In June, we announced a rights offering for Cohen & Steers Quality Income Realty Fund, Inc. (RQI), which closed on July 15, 2026, raising approximately $220 million of new capital, including leverage, for the fund. This successful offering enhances the fund's capital base, providing additional capacity to pursue attractive investment opportunities and support future income and value creation.
•The Cohen & Steers Income Opportunities REIT, Inc. (CNSREIT) continued to execute on its growth strategy during the second quarter, acquiring three properties, bringing its portfolio to 11 assets. These acquisitions reflect the fund's ability to source and deploy capital into attractive opportunities and build scale across the portfolio, positioning CNSREIT to drive long-term income and value creation for investors.
•In May, we appointed Amit Muni as Chief Financial Officer, bringing more than two decades of leadership across public markets, asset and wealth management, and capital markets, with a strong track record of driving strategic growth, executing M&A and financing initiatives, and engaging with the investor community.

Quarterly financial highlights
Assets under management (AUM)
AUM at the end of the quarter was $100.1 billion, an increase of 7.5% from $93.1 billion at the end of the first quarter of 2026 due to net inflows of $1.3 billion, primarily in our U.S. mutual funds and SICAVs within the real estate and multi-strategy real asset strategies, as well as continued net inflows into our active ETFs, and market appreciation of $6.4 billion, partially offset by distributions of $768 million.
Revenues
Total revenues increased approximately 5% on both a GAAP and adjusted basis from the first quarter of 2026 due to higher average AUM and one additional day in the current quarter. Total revenues increased approximately 12% on both a GAAP and adjusted basis from the second quarter of 2025 due to higher average AUM.
Expenses
Total operating expenses increased 4.6% from the first quarter of 2026 primarily due to higher employee compensation and benefits, in line with the increase in revenues, as well as an increase in distribution and service fees due to higher average AUM. Adjusted total operating expenses increased 3.3% from the first quarter of 2026 primarily due to higher employee compensation and benefits, in line with the increase in revenues.
Total operating expenses increased 7.7% from the second quarter of 2025 primarily due to higher employee compensation and benefits expenses and general and administrative expenses. Employee compensation and benefits increased primarily due to higher incentive compensation associated with increased revenue. General and administrative expenses increased due to costs associated with the RQI rights offering. Total adjusted operating expenses increased 7.6% from the second quarter of 2025 primarily due to higher employee compensation and benefits, in line with the increase in revenues.

Investment Performance at June 30, 2026 _________________________
(1) Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Outperformance is determined by comparing the annualized investment performance of each investment strategy to the performance of specified reference benchmarks. Investment performance in excess of the performance of the benchmark is considered outperformance. The investment performance calculation of each investment strategy is based on all active accounts and investment models pursuing similar investment objectives. For accounts, actual investment performance is measured gross of fees and net of withholding taxes. For investment models, for which actual investment performance does not exist, the investment performance of a composite of accounts pursuing comparable investment objectives is used as a proxy for actual investment performance. The performance of the specified reference benchmark for each account and investment model is measured net of withholding taxes, where applicable. This is not investment advice and may not be construed as sales or marketing material for any financial product or service sponsored or provided by Cohen & Steers.

Neither Morningstar nor its content providers are responsible for any damages or losses arising from any use of this information. Morningstar calculates its ratings based on a risk-adjusted return measure that accounts for variation in a fund's monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in each category receive five stars, the next 22.5% receive four stars, the next 35% receive three stars, the next 22.5% receive two stars and the bottom 10% receive one star. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Based on independent rating by Morningstar, Inc. of investment performance of each Cohen & Steers-sponsored open-end U.S.-registered mutual fund for all share classes for the overall period at June 30, 2026. Overall Morningstar rating is a weighted average based on the 3-year, 5-year and 10-year Morningstar rating. Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately, which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.

Reconciliations of U.S. GAAP to As Adjusted Financial Results
Management believes that use of the following as adjusted (non-GAAP) financial results provides greater transparency into the company’s operating performance. In addition, these as adjusted financial results are used to prepare the company's internal management reports that are used in evaluating its business. While management believes that these as adjusted financial results are useful in evaluating operating performance, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
