**FORM 40-F** 

**Principal Documents** 

The following documents, filed as Exhibits 99.1 through 99.2 hereto, are hereby incorporated by reference into this Form 40-F:

 (a) Annual Information Form for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025;

 (b) Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Results ("<u>MD&A</u>") for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025; and

 (c) Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

------

**ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURE** 

**Certifications and Disclosure Regarding Controls and Procedures** 

(a) <u>Certifications</u>. See Exhibits 99.3, 99.4, 99.5 and 99.6 to this Annual Report on Form 40-F.

(b) <u>Disclosure Controls and Procedures</u>. As of the end of the registrant's fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the registrant's "disclosure controls and procedures" (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the " <u>Exchange Act</u> ")) was carried out by the registrant's principal executive officer and principal financial officer. Based upon that evaluation, the registrant's principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that as of the end of that fiscal year, the registrant's disclosure controls and procedures were designed at a reasonable assurance level and were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the registrant in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the registrant's management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. It should be noted that while the registrant's principal executive officer and principal financial officer believe that the registrant's disclosure controls and procedures provide a reasonable level of assurance that they are effective, they do not expect that the registrant's disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

(c) <u>Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting</u>. (1) Management of the registrant is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Chief Executive Officer and the President and Chief Financial Officer, and effected by the Board of Directors, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. (2) Management assessed the effectiveness of the registrant's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and as further described under the heading "Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting", included in Exhibit 99.2 attached hereto, which is incorporated by reference into this Annual Report on Form 40-F. (3) Based on this assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, the registrant's internal control over financial reporting was effective. Also, management determined that there were no material weaknesses in the registrant's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. (4) Deloitte LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the registrant's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, has issued its opinion on the registrant's internal control over financial reporting (the " <u>Attestation Report</u> ").

(d) <u>Attestation Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm</u>. The Attestation Report is included in Exhibit 99.2 attached hereto, which is incorporated by reference into this Annual Report on Form 40-F.

------

(e) <u>Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting</u>. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, there were no changes in the registrant's internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant's internal control over financial reporting.

------

**Notices Pursuant to Regulation BTR** 

None.

**Audit Committee Financial Experts** 

The registrant's board of directors has determined that Ms. Janice Fukakusa, who is a member of the registrant's audit committee, qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert" (as such term is defined in paragraph 8 of General Instruction B in Form 40-F) and is "independent" (as such term is defined in the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (the "<u>NYSE</u>"), in accordance with the director independence standards of the NYSE).

**Code of Ethics** 

The registrant has adopted a "code of ethics" (as that term is defined in paragraph 9(b) of General Instruction B in Form 40-F), which it refers to as its Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, that applies to its principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, and persons performing similar functions.

The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which complies with the requirements of the NYSE, is available for viewing on the registrant's website at *<u>https://bn.brookfield.com/corporate-governance/governance-documents</u>* and is available in print to any shareholder who requests it. Requests for copies of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics should be made by contacting: Corporate Secretary, Brookfield Corporation, Suite 100, Brookfield Place, 181 Bay Street, P.O. Box 762, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5J 2T3, Telephone: 416-363-9491. Alternatively, requests may be sent by email to *<u>bn.enquiries@brookfield.com.</u>*

All amendments to the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, and all waivers of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics with respect to any of the directors, officers and employees covered by it, have been and will be posted promptly on the registrant's website.

**Principal Accountant Fees and Services**

The information required is included under the heading "Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures" in the Audit Committee Information section of the registrant's Annual Information Form for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, incorporated by reference as Exhibit 99.1 to this Annual Report on Form 40-F.

**Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement**

The registrant has a separately designated standing audit committee established in accordance with section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act.

------

**DISCLOSURE PURSUANT TO THE** 

**REQUIREMENTS OF THE NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE** 

**Independence of Directors** 

The registrant's board of directors has determined that nine of the registrant's 16 directors, comprising a majority of the board, are "independent directors," as that term is defined in the rules of the NYSE, and that none of these eight directors has a material relationship with the registrant which would impair his independence from management or otherwise compromise his ability to act as an independent director.

The directors who have been determined to be independent on this basis are: M. Elyse Allan, Ang Eng Seng, Satish Rai, Maureen Kempston Darkes, Janice Fukakusa, The Hon. Frank J. McKenna, Rafael Miranda, Hutham S. Olayan and Diana L. Taylor.

**Presiding Director at Meetings of Independent Directors** 

The registrant schedules regular meetings in which the registrant's independent directors meet without the participation of management and non-independent directors. The Hon. Frank J. McKenna, the chair of the board of directors, serves as the chair at such sessions (the "<u>Chair</u>").

**Communication with Independent Directors** 

Shareholders may send communications to the registrant's independent directors by contacting the Chair, c/o Corporate Secretary, Brookfield Corporation, Suite 100, Brookfield Place, 181 Bay Street, P.O. Box 762, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5J 2T3, Telephone: (416) 363-9491. Alternatively, communications may be sent by e-mail to *<u>bn.enquiries@brookfield.com</u>.* Communications will be referred to the Chair for appropriate action. The status of all outstanding concerns addressed to the Chair will be reported to the board of directors as appropriate.

**Corporate Governance Guidelines** 

The rules of the NYSE require listed companies to adopt and disclose a set of corporate governance guidelines with respect to specified topics. Such guidelines are required to be posted on the listed company's website. The registrant operates under corporate governance principles that are substantially consistent with the requirements of the NYSE rules*.*

The registrant is permitted to follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of those otherwise required under the NYSE Listed Company Manual for U.S. domestic issuers. Under NYSE stock exchange rules, U.S. domestic issuers are required to have a majority independent board of directors. As permitted under Canadian securities laws, the registrant's corporate governance guidelines permit temporary circumstances in which the registrant would not have a majority independent board of directors. In addition, the registrant intends to follow the listing rules of the TSX in respect of private placements instead of the requirements of the NYSE to obtain shareholder approval for certain dilutive events (such as issuances that will result in a change of control, certain transactions other than a public offering involving issuances of a 20% or greater interest in the registrant and certain acquisitions of the shares or assets of another company). The TSX threshold for shareholder approval of private issuances of common shares is generally 25%, subject to additional shareholder approval requirements in the case of certain issuances to insiders, and accordingly, the registrant will be permitted to rely on shareholder approval rules that may be less favorable to shareholders than for U.S. domestic companies that are subject to NYSE shareholder approval rules.

**Board and Committee Charters** 

The charter of the registrant's board of directors is set out in Appendix A to the registrant's Management Information Circular dated April 24, 2025. The charter of the registrant's audit committee is set out in Appendix C of the registrant's Annual Information Form for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

The charters of the registrant's board of directors, audit committee, management resources and compensation committee, governance and nominating committee and risk management committee are each available for viewing on the registrant's web site at <u>https://bn.brookfield.com/corporate-governance/governance-documents</u> and are available in print to any shareholder who requests them. Requests for copies of these documents should be made by contacting: Corporate Secretary, Brookfield Corporation, Suite 100, Brookfield Place, 181 Bay Street, P.O. Box 762, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5J 2T3, Telephone: (416) 363-9491. Alternatively, requests may be sent by email to <u>bn.enquiries@brookfield.com</u>.

Information contained or otherwise accessed through the registrant's website or any other website, other than those documents filed as exhibits hereto or otherwise specifically referred to herein, does not form part of this Form 40-F, and any reference to the registrant's website herein is as an inactive textual reference only.

------

**CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING THE USE OF NON-IFRS MEASURES** 

BN prepares its financial statements in accordance with IFRS<sup>®</sup> Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. We disclose a number of financial measures in this Annual Information Form that are calculated and presented using methodologies other than in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, which include but are not limited to distributable earnings ("DE") and funds from operations ("FFO"). We use these measures in managing the business, including for performance measurement, capital allocation and valuation purposes, and believe that providing these performance measures on a supplemental basis to our IFRS results is helpful to investors in assessing the overall performance of our businesses. These financial measures should not be considered as the sole measure of our performance and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, similar financial measures calculated in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. We caution readers that these non-IFRS financial measures or other financial metrics are not standardized under IFRS Accounting Standards and may differ from the financial measures or other financial metrics disclosed by other businesses and, as a result, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers and entities. For more information on non-IFRS measures and other financial metrics, see "Statement Regarding Use of Non-IFRS Measures" and "Glossary of Terms" in our Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Results for the year ended December 31, 2025 ("MD&A") dated March 17, 2026, which sections are incorporated by reference in this Annual Information Form. Reconciliations of these non-IFRS financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, where applicable, are included on pages 133 to 139 of the MD&A, which pages are also incorporated by reference in this Annual Information Form.

**DEVELOPMENT OF THE BUSINESS**

The following is a summary of recent developments since January 2023 in each of our principal business areas.

**2026 Activity – to date** 

***Asset Management***

On February 4, 2026, BAM announced the appointment of Connor Teskey as Chief Executive Officer of BAM, with Bruce Flatt continuing in his role as Chair of the Board of BAM, in addition to his role as Chief Executive Officer of BN. On the same day BAM declared a quarterly dividend of $0.5025 per share, representing a 15% increase relative to the prior year, payable on March 31, 2026, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on February 27, 2026.

On March 3, 2026, British Columbia Investment Management Corporation, Norges Bank Investment Management and BAM announced the launch of Northview Energy ("Northview"), a privately held renewable energy company that will acquire and own a diversified portfolio of contracted, operating renewable assets in the U.S. and Canada. Northview will be equally funded and owned by the three investors. Northview will acquire a seed portfolio of assets from leading renewable energy companies currently managed by BAM, including assets from Deriva Energy, Scout Clean Energy and Urban Grid.

On March 3, 2026, BAM announced that it has established a commercial paper program on a private placement basis. Under the program, BAM may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $1 billion. The program is expected to further diversify and strengthen BAM's balance sheet by providing another source of short-term capital. The proceeds from the issuance of any notes will be used for general corporate purposes.

***Wealth Solutions***

The wealth solutions business has had no material activity in 2026 to date.

***Operating Businesses***

***Renewable Power and Transition***

In February 2026, BEP, together with institutional partners, agreed to the sale of a 2.3 gigawatts ("GW") portfolio of operating utility-scale renewable power projects in the U.S. for expected proceeds of approximately $1.3 billion. The closing of this transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, with closing expected to occur in the first half of 2026.

***Infrastructure***

The infrastructure business has had no material activity in 2026 to date.

***Private Equity***

On March 16, 2026, BBU announced the expected closing of its reorganization to simplify its corporate structure by converting BBU and Brookfield Business Holdings Corporation (formerly known as Brookfield Business Corporation) (the "BBUC Arrangement") into one publicly traded Canadian corporation that assumed the name "Brookfield Business Corporation." The conversion into a single corporate entity is designed to broaden BBU's investor base, increase index demand and make it easier to invest in BBU's shares, which we expect will drive long-term value for shareholders. The transaction was approved by both BBU unitholders and BBUC shareholders on January 13, 2026 and is anticipated to close on March 27, 2026. Following completion of the BBUC Arrangement, BBU and Brookfield Business Holdings Corporation will become subsidiaries of BBUC, will be delisted and will cease to be reporting issuers.

***Real Estate***

The real estate business has had no material activity in 2026 to date.

***Corporate***

There has been no material corporate activity in 2026 to date.

**2025 Activity** 

***Asset Management***

In 2025, our asset management business benefited from strong fundraising across our flagship and complementary funds, with total fundraising of over $110 billion. The fundraising across our flagship series included over $10 billion for the second vintage of our global transition fund and our fifth real estate flagship fund, which held final closes during the year.

We also raised approximately $68 billion of capital this year across more than a dozen credit strategies and under our mandate with Brookfield Wealth Solutions. This includes raising nearly $31.6 billion across our Oaktree franchise, including the final close of our twelfth opportunities credit fund, $6.6 billion across our other partner managers, and $3.3 billion for the fourth vintage of our infrastructure debt fund. In addition, we raised a total of $25.2 billion from Brookfield Wealth Solutions.

Fee-bearing capital represents the total capital managed for which we earn fee revenue. Fee-bearing capital increased by $64 billion, or 12% to $603 billion in 2025; of this, 87% is long-dated or perpetual in nature, providing resiliency and predictability to our revenues. Increases to fee-bearing capital of $91 billion were largely attributable to fundraising during the year. In addition, $25 billion of fee-bearing capital growth was primarily driven by higher market capitalization of our perpetual affiliates (BEP, BIP, and BBU) as a result of higher share prices during the year. These increases were partially offset by redemptions within our liquid and perpetual strategies, annuity-related outflows, and distributions from our long-term private funds.

The increase in fee-bearing capital contributed to fee revenues of $5.5 billion and fee-related earnings of $3 billion for 2025, which increased by 17% and 22%, respectively, compared to 2024. The increase in fee-related earnings was partially offset by higher cash taxes and lower investment income resulting in distributable earnings of $2.7 billion for 2025, or an increase of 14% compared to 2024.

During the year, our asset management business deployed $65.6 billion across the strategies, including $10.9 billion from infrastructure, $6.9 billion from renewable power and transition, $4 billion from private equity, $7.5 billion from real estate and $36.3 billion from credit.

As at December 31, 2025, the asset management business had total uncalled private fund commitments of $134 billion of which approximately $63 billion is committed across the business groups and is currently not earning fees, but will become fee-bearing once the capital is invested. Once invested, we expect these commitments will earn approximately $630 million of additional fee revenues. In 2025, our investment strategies continued to focus on growing strategic partnerships and funds in a number of sectors including private credit, artificial intelligence ("AI") and clean energy. Some notable examples include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On February 10, 2025, BAM announced a €20 billion infrastructure investment program to support the deployment of AI infrastructure in France. Brookfield's investment will be targeted across data centers and associated infrastructure sectors which are vital for the deployment of AI. Up to €15 billion of data center investment will be led by a Brookfield portfolio company, Data4, one of Europe's largest data center developers, headquartered in Paris. The investment of a further €5 billion is planned by Brookfield in France across associated AI infrastructure such as data transfer, chip storage and energy generation. The total €20 billion investment is projected to be delivered by 2030.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On February 11, 2025, Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. announced the final close of Oaktree Opportunities Fund XII ("Opps XII"), with approximately $16 billion of commitments, including co-investment and affiliated vehicles. As of February 11, 2025, Opps XII had more than $7 billion invested or committed for investment in businesses that are diversified across geographies, sectors, and asset classes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On March 11, 2025, BAM announced the closing of its inaugural Brookfield Infrastructure Structured Solutions Fund ("BISS"), a middle-market infrastructure fund, achieving its fundraising target with over $1 billion of capital commitments. BISS's strategy targets sectors in which Brookfield has established operations and significant asset expertise, drawing on the platform's direct investment capabilities to source transactions and access differentiated opportunities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On April 24, 2025, BAM closed an inaugural $750 million offering of 5.795% senior notes due 2035.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On June 4, 2025, BAM announced up to SEK 95 billion ($10 billion) of investment to support the development of AI infrastructure in Sweden. This investment represents one of Brookfield's largest AI investments in Europe and extends the partnership with the Swedish government, its public authorities, academia and businesses in the region.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On September 4, 2025, BAM closed a $750 million offering of 6.077% senior notes due 2055.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On October 1, 2025, Brookfield announced it raised over $4 billion for the first closing of Brookfield Infrastructure Debt Fund IV reflecting continued significant support from both existing and new investors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On October 7, 2025, Brookfield announced the final institutional close for its flagship energy transition strategy, Brookfield Global Transition Fund II ("BGTF II"), with $20 billion raised in fund commitments and strategic capital from a diverse range of existing and new investors.

***Operating Businesses***

*Renewable Power and Transition*

In 2025, our renewable power and transition business generated FFO of approximately $584 million attributable to BN. FFO was positively impacted by improved results from our hydroelectric portfolio due to stronger hydrology across our Canadian and Colombian fleets, embedded growth from our contracted, inflation-linked cash flows, growth activities, including accretive acquisitions and the delivery of approximately 8 GW of new projects over the past 12 months and contributions from our scaling capital recycling activities, crystallizing value and generating capital to fund growth.

In April 2025, following completion of an initial 53% controlling stake acquisition, a mandatory cash tender offer and squeeze-out procedure, BEP, together with institutional partners, completed the acquisition of 100% of the equity interests in Neoen S.A., a leading global renewable energy developer headquartered in France with 8 GW of operating and in construction renewable power and energy storage assets, as well as a 20 GW development pipeline, for a total acquisition price of approximately $6.7 billion.

In May 2025, BEP, together with institutional partners, acquired a diversified operating and development platform in the U.S. with 3.9 GW of operating and under construction renewable power and storage assets and an over 30 GW development pipeline for approximately $1.4 billion.

In July 2025, BEP signed a Hydro Framework Agreement with Google to deliver up to 3,000 megawatts ("MW") of hydroelectric capacity in the U.S. by the end of 2032, including the first two contracts for 670 MW of capacity.

In October 2025, BEP completed the acquisition of an incremental 15% ownership in Isagen S.A. E.S.P. for $1 billion.

In October 2025, Brookfield and Cameco Corporation ("Cameco"), our partner in Westinghouse Electrical Company ("Westinghouse"), entered an agreement with the U.S. Government to establish a strategic partnership which is expected to accelerate the scale deployment of Westinghouse's nuclear reactor technologies in the United States and globally. Under the terms of the agreement, once the U.S. Government makes a final investment decision and enters into definitive agreements to complete the construction of new Westinghouse nuclear reactors in the United States with an aggregate value of at least $80 billion before January 2029, a contingent interest in Westinghouse will vest for the U.S. government whereby it will be entitled to receive 20% of any cash distributions in excess of $17.5 billion made by Westinghouse.

In November 2025, BEP issued 15,050,200 BEP LP Units at a price of $29.90 per BEP LP Unit, for total gross proceeds of approximately $450 million.

*Infrastructure*

In 2025, our infrastructure business generated FFO of $757 million, an increase of $190 million from the prior year, primarily due to inflation indexation on contracts, volume growth in our utilities, midstream and data businesses, and disposition gains from the sale of our Australian container terminal operations, as well as commissioning of capital projects across our businesses. This was partially offset by net disposition activity, increased interest expense related to additional borrowings to finance ongoing investments, the impact of foreign exchange, and higher management fees from the increased market capitalization at BIP.

On July 1, 2025, BIP, through its global intermodal logistics operation, acquired the container portfolio of Global Container International LLC, a container fleet operator of approximately 0.5 million twenty-foot equivalent units, for approximately $1.1 billion which was principally comprised of property, plant and equipment.

*Private Equity*

In 2025, our private equity business generated FFO of approximately $500 million.

On January 28, 2025, Clarios International Inc. ("Clarios"), our advanced energy storage operation, raised $5 billion of new first lien debt, of which $4.5 billion was used to fund a special distribution to its shareholders.

**2024 Activity**

***Asset Management***

In 2024, our asset management business benefited from strong fundraising across our flagship and complementary fund offerings, with total fundraising of over $135 billion. The successful fundraising across our flagship series included the second vintage of our global transition fund of $4.6 billion, our fifth real estate flagship fund of $2.9 billion, and the twelfth vintage of our opportunistic credit fund of $5.2 billion. We held our final closings for our second global transition flagship fund and fifth real estate flagship fund series in 2025.

We also raised approximately $103 billion of capital in 2024 across more than a dozen credit strategies and under our mandate with Brookfield Wealth Solutions. This included raising nearly $29 billion across our Oaktree franchise, including our aforementioned twelfth opportunities credit fund, $1.7 billion in the fourth vintage of our infrastructure debt fund, and $2.5 billion across our other partner managers. In addition, we raised a total of $67 billion from Brookfield Wealth Solutions including a $49 billion mandate following the May 2, 2024 acquisition of American Equity Investment Life Holding Company ("AEL") and $17 billion from retail annuity sales, pension risk transfer inflows, and other reinsurance products.

Our fee-bearing capital represents the total capital managed by our asset management business for which we earn fee revenue. Fee-bearing capital of our asset management business increased by $82 billion, or 18%, to $539 billion in 2024; of this, 87% was long-dated or perpetual in nature, providing resiliency and predictability to our revenues. Increases to fee-bearing capital of $129 billion in 2024 were largely attributable to fundraising during the year and the aforementioned AEL mandate. These increases were partially offset by redemptions within our liquid and perpetual strategies and annuity-related outflows.

The increase in fee-bearing capital contributed to fee revenues of $4.7 billion and fee-related earnings of $2.5 billion for 2024, which increased by 7% and 10%, respectively, compared to 2023. The increase in fee-related earnings was partially offset by higher cash taxes resulting in DE of $2.4 billion for 2024, or an increase of 5% compared to 2023.

During the year, our asset management business deployed $47.6 billion across the business groups, including $5.6 billion from renewable power and transition, $3.8 billion from infrastructure, $5.9 billion from private equity, $6.1 billion from real estate and $26.2 billion from credit.

As at December 31, 2024, the asset management business had total uncalled private fund commitments of $115 billion of which approximately $53 billion is committed across the business groups and is currently not earning fees, but will become fee-bearing once the capital is invested. Once invested, we expect these commitments will earn approximately $530 million of additional fee revenues.

In 2024, our investment strategies continued to focus on growing fundraising channels, direct credit lending, infrastructure, and transition and renewables. Some notable examples include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On May 2, 2024, Brookfield Wealth Solutions completed the acquisition of the remaining outstanding common stock of AEL that it did not already own.

The AEL acquisition also resulted in the raising of $49 billion of fee-bearing capital to be managed by the asset management business.

The Brookfield Wealth Solutions Class A Shares began trading on the NYSE and TSX under the new ticker symbol "BNT" at market open on September 6, 2024.

On December 16, 2024, ANICO, a wholly owned subsidiary of ANGI, closed a reinsurance transaction with Just Group, pursuant to which ANICO agreed to reinsure approximately £1.0 billion (or $1.3 billion) of pension liabilities assumed by Just through a bulk annuity transaction with a U.K. pension scheme.

***Operating Businesses***

*Renewable Power and Transition* 

In 2024, our renewable power and transition business generated FFO of approximately $470 million attributable to BN. FFO was positively impacted by commissioning of development assets reaching commercial operation, higher realized prices across most market segments on a same store constant currency basis due to inflation indexation on our contracted generation, and net acquisition activity.

In May 2024, BEP signed a renewable energy framework agreement with Microsoft Corporation, where BEP expects to deliver them 10,500 MW of new renewable energy capacity in the U.S. and Europe between 2026 and 2030.

In December 2024, BEP, together with institutional partners, entered into a strategic partnership with a leading eFuels manufacturer, to invest up to $1.1 billion, consisting of a $200 million upfront structured equity investment, including the construction of a production facility in West Texas, and an exclusive right to invest up to $850 million in future projects that meet certain investment criteria.

Holders of BEP LP Units were not affected by the BEPC Arrangement.

*Infrastructure*

In 2024, our infrastructure business generated FFO of $566 million. Excluding the impact of realized disposition gains, operating FFO increased by $27 million primarily due to organic growth across our businesses from inflation indexation, commissioning of capital projects, rate base increases, and net acquisition activity, partially offset by increased interest expense related to additional borrowings to finance ongoing capital projects, as well as the impact of foreign exchange.

Holders of BIP LP Units were not affected by the BIPC Arrangement.

*Private Equity*

In 2024, our private equity business generated FFO of approximately $1 billion. Excluding the impact of realized disposition gains, operating FFO increased by $198 million primarily due to same-store growth from commercial execution, business optimization initiatives, and the recognition of tax benefits at our advanced energy storage operation in industrials, as well as decreased interest

**2023 Activity**

***Asset Management***

In 2023, our asset management business benefited from strong fundraising across our flagship and complementary fund offerings, with total capital raised of $83 billion. The successful fundraising across our various flagship series included the final close of our fifth infrastructure flagship fund and our sixth private equity flagship fund, bringing the total capital raised in these strategies to $30 billion and $12 billion, respectively. We also had closes for the latest vintage of our opportunistic credit fund and our inaugural

------

strategic lending partners fund, bringing the total amount raised to $8 billion and $4 billion at year-end, respectively, for these products. We completed the first close of the fifth vintage of our flagship opportunistic real estate fund strategy during the first quarter of 2024, bringing the strategy size to over $8 billion. These raises were supplemented by significant fundraising across our growing suite of complementary strategies, with the final close of the third vintage of our infrastructure debt fund, bringing the total for the fund to over $6 billion, which makes this fund the world's largest private infrastructure debt fund. Our fee-bearing capital represents the total capital managed by our asset management business for which we earn revenue. Fee-bearing capital of our asset management business increased by 9% to $457 billion in 2023; of this, 86% was long-dated or perpetual in nature. Inflows to fee-bearing capital of $73 billion were largely driven by flagship fundraising activities, funds raised within credit and other funds, including our insurance solutions business, and capital raised and deployed across other strategies. Fee-bearing capital also benefitted from capital raised through issuances in our public vehicles and higher market valuations across our credit, liquid and other perpetual strategies. These increases were partially offset by outflows within our liquid and credit strategies, and $16 billion of capital returned to clients.

The increase in fee-bearing capital resulted in fee revenues of $4.4 billion and fee-related earnings of $2.2 billion for 2023, or an increase of 8% and 6%, respectively, compared to 2022. The increase in fee-related earnings and higher interest income on the deposit our asset management business has with BN was partially offset by higher cash taxes resulting in DE of $2.2 billion for the year ended December 31, 2023, or an increase of 7% compared to 2022.

During the year, our asset management business had gross monetizations of approximately $30 billion and deployed $58 billion across the business groups, including $5.7 billion from renewable power and transition, $19.4 billion from infrastructure, $3.4 billion from private equity, $7.7 billion from real estate and $22.1 billion from credit and other.

As at December 31, 2023, the asset management business had total uncalled private fund commitments of $107 billion.

In 2023, our investment strategies continued to focus on infrastructure, growing out the backbone of the global economy, transition and renewables, benefiting from the global imperative to decarbonize; and direct lending. Some notable examples included:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In February 2023, our asset management business launched Brookfield Infrastructure Income Fund ("BII"), an innovative open-ended, semi-liquid infrastructure product offering private wealth investors access to Brookfield's infrastructure platform. As of December 2024, more than $4 billion has been raised since inception of BII from our distribution partners worldwide;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On September 11, 2023, BAM and Société Générale announced a strategic partnership to originate, manage and distribute high-quality private credit investments; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On December 1, 2023, BAM and ALTÉRRA announced the creation of a multi-billion dollar Catalytic Transition Fund. ALTÉRRA Transformation has committed up to $1 billion to this fund, alongside ALTÉRRA Acceleration's $2 billion commitment to BGTF II.

***Operating Businesses***

*Renewable Power and Transition*

In 2023, our renewable power and transition segment generated FFO of approximately $418 million attributable to BN. FFO was positively impacted by contributions from growth, including nearly 5,000 MW of new development assets reaching commercial operation, higher realized prices across most markets on the back of inflation escalation and commercial initiatives, as well as favorable hydroelectric generation in the U.S. and Brazil and strong asset availability across our global fleet.

*Infrastructure*

In 2023, our infrastructure segment generated FFO of $653 million. The increase in FFO compared to the prior year was primarily driven by inflation indexation, volume growth across the majority of our critical infrastructure networks, the commissioning of capital projects, and net acquisition activity, partially offset by increased interest expense due to additional borrowings.

On January 4, 2023, BIP completed the acquisition of HomeServe PLC ("HomeServe"), a residential infrastructure business operating in North America and Europe, for total consideration of approximately $1.2 billion. The partnership has an effective 26% and 25% interest in HomeServe's North American and European businesses, respectively.

BIP has an effective 28% interest in Triton.

On September 29, 2023, a subsidiary of BN exercised its redemption right in respect of 3.3 million exchangeable units of BIP and was issued 3.3 million BIP LP Units; these BIP LP Units were subsequently transferred to subsidiaries of Brookfield Wealth Solutions at fair market value for total cash consideration of $100 million.

Excluding the disposition gain recorded in the current year, FFO decreased by approximately $200 million primarily due to the impact of increased interest expense incurred from higher rates on floating rate debt and incremental borrowings due to acquisitions.

On November 7, 2023, BBU alongside institutional partners completed the sale of Westinghouse to a strategic consortium led by Cameco and BEP for proceeds of approximately $4 billion.

*Real Estate*

In the first quarter of 2023, BPY issued medium term notes for C$500 million at 7.125% per annum, with a term of five years via private placement. In addition, BPY acquired a portfolio of logistics assets in South Korea through an opportunistic real estate fund for $532 million.

**BUSINESS OF THE CORPORATION**

**Our Business**

We are a leading global investment firm focused on building long-term wealth for institutions and individuals around the world. We have one of the largest pools of discretionary capital globally, which is deployed across our three core businesses—asset management business, wealth solutions and our operating businesses. Through our core businesses, we invest in real assets that form the backbone of the global economy to deliver strong risk-adjusted returns to our stakeholders. Over the long term, we are focused on delivering 15%+ annualized returns to shareholders.

With a 100+ year heritage as an owner and operator of real assets, we have a proven track record of deploying capital to build market leading businesses that generate attractive long-term total returns. The cash flows generated from our businesses are generally underpinned by stable, inflation-linked, largely contracted, and growing revenue streams with high cash margins. At the center of our success is the Brookfield Ecosystem, which is based on the fundamental principle that each group within Brookfield benefits from being part of the broader organization. We leverage our global presence, the synergies of our businesses and large-scale, flexible capital to achieve strong returns across market cycles.

As a proven value investor, we remain focused on allocating the distributions we receive from our businesses to enhance value for our shareholders. We will continue to deploy the substantial free cash flows we receive towards supporting the growth of our three businesses, new strategic opportunities, and share buybacks. Our conservatively managed balance sheet, extensive operational experience, and global sourcing networks allow us to consistently access unique opportunities.

Our scale, stability, and diversification create a differentiated business model, positioning us well as a partner of choice for the global buildout of infrastructure, the transition to a sustainable energy future, and take-private opportunities. We expect the flexibility of our capital and reputation as a good partner to create a significant proprietary pipeline of opportunities.

Sound sustainability principles are integral to building resilient businesses and creating long term value for our investors and other stakeholders. As a result, we embed these principles into all our activities—including our investment process—and conduct our business in a sustainable and ethical manner. An emphasis on diversity and inclusion reinforces our culture of collaboration. It strengthens our ability to develop our people and maintain an engaged workforce focused on serving as a trusted partner and first-choice provider of investment solutions.<br>✔ **Investment Focus**

We invest in a global and diverse portfolio of high-quality assets and businesses that are predominantly long-term or perpetual in nature and have the following attributes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• stable, largely contracted or inflation-linked, and growing revenues;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ability to drive outsized financial returns through operational excellence;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• highly cash-generative;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• high barriers to entry with a market leading position; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• offer continuous deployment opportunities.

✔&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Focused Investment Strategies** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We invest where we can bring our competitive advantages to bear, leveraging our global presence, deep operating expertise, and large-scale, flexible capital to achieve strong returns across market cycles.

✔&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Proven Capital Allocator**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We are a value investor with a track record of delivering 15%+ annualized returns to shareholders for over 30 years, supported by our deep investment and operational expertise.

✔&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Disciplined Financing Approach** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We take a conservative approach to the use of leverage, ensuring that we can preserve capital across business cycles. Underlying investments are typically funded at investment-grade levels on a standalone and non-recourse basis, providing us with a stable capitalization. Only 6% of the total leverage reported in our consolidated financial statements has recourse to BN.

Brookfield Corporation *- 2025 Annual Information Form&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17*

------

✔&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Sustainability**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We are committed to ensuring that the businesses we invest in are set up for long-term success, and we seek to have a positive impact on the environment and the communities in which we operate.

We calculate the value of BN as the capital we have in our three core businesses—asset management, wealth solutions, and operating businesses. Our financial returns are represented by capital appreciation and distributions from our businesses. The primary performance measure that we use to evaluate the performance of our business is DE.

**Principal Business Activities** 

Our operations are organized into our asset management business, our wealth solutions business, our four operating businesses and our corporate activities, which collectively represent seven operating segments for internal and external reporting purposes.

For our asset management and wealth solutions segments, we primarily measure operating performance using DE. To further assess operating performance for our asset management segment, we also report unrealized carried interest which represents carried interest generated on unrealized changes in the fair value of our private funds, net of realized carried interest. Net operating income ("NOI") is the key performance metric for our real estate segment, and FFO is used for our other operating segments. We also monitor the amount of capital invested by BN in each segment using common equity. Common equity relates to invested capital allocated to a particular business segment, which we use interchangeably with segment common equity.

Our operating segments are global in scope and are as follows:

i.The *Asset Management* business includes managing long-term private funds, perpetual strategies and liquid strategies on behalf of our investors and ourselves. We generate contractual base management fees for these activities as well as incentive distributions and performance income, including performance fees, transaction fees and carried interest. The asset management business also includes our direct investments into and alongside private funds managed by BAM.

ii.The *Wealth Solutions* business includes our equity accounted interest in Brookfield Wealth Solutions, an investment-led insurance organization focused on securing the financial futures of individuals and institutions through a range of retirement services, wealth protection products and tailored capital solutions*.*

Operating Businesses

iii.The *Renewable Power and Transitio*n business includes the ownership, operation and development of hydroelectric, wind, utility-scale solar power generating assets, distributed energy and sustainable solutions. <br>

iv.The *Infrastructure* business includes the ownership, operation and development of utilities, transport, midstream, and data assets.

v.The *Private Equity* business includes a broad range of industries, and is mostly focused on ownership and operations in the business services and industrials sectors.

vi.The *Real Estate* business includes the ownership, operation and development of super core, core plus, value add, opportunistic, and North American Residential assets.

vii.*Corporate Activities* include the investment of cash and financial assets, as well as the management of our corporate leverage, including corporate borrowings and preferred equity, which fund a portion of the capital invested in our other operations. Certain corporate costs such as technology and operations are allocated to each operating segment based on an internal pricing framework.

In assessing operating performance and capital allocation, we separately identify the portion of DE, NOI, or FFO and common equity that relate to each segment, where applicable. We believe that identifying the key operating metrics attributable to each segment enables investors to understand how the results of these entities are integrated into our financial results and is helpful in analyzing variances between reporting periods. Additional information with respect to BAM and our perpetual affiliates (BEP, BIP, BBU) is available in their public filings. We also separately identify the components of realized carried interest, net, and realized disposition gains included within the DE and FFO of each segment in order to facilitate analysis of variances between reporting periods.

***Asset Management***

*Business Overview*

Our asset management business is a leading global alternative asset manager, with over $1 trillion of assets under management as at

18*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*Brookfield Corporation *- 2025 Annual Information Form*

------

December 31, 2025 across infrastructure, renewable power and transition, private equity, real estate, and credit.

In February 2025, the Corporation exchanged its interest in the Asset Management Company for an interest in BAM on a one-for-one basis. Following this transaction and as at December 31, 2025, our capital in this business is held via our 73% ownership interest in BAM, which in turn holds 100% of our asset management business.

The business invests client capital for the long term with a focus on real assets and essential service businesses that form the backbone of the global economy. The business draws on our heritage as an owner and operator to invest for value and generate strong returns for clients, across economic cycles. Our clients include some of the world's largest and most sophisticated institutional investors, including sovereign wealth funds, pension plans, endowments, foundations, financial institutions, insurance companies, and individual investors.

We have a team of over 5,800 investment, asset management professionals and employees, which includes Oaktree employees that will become Brookfield employees following the completion of the Oaktree acquisition and approximately 1,500 fully-dedicated Brookfield operating employees, that are integral to the business, including individuals focused on our core investment strategies and those undertaking various corporate activities. Globally, we are supported by approximately 250,000 operating employees located in over 50 countries on five continents, providing Brookfield with deep investment and operating expertise across several sectors and industries, global reach and unique access to proprietary investment opportunities.

We put our own capital to work alongside our investors' in virtually every transaction, aligning interests and leveraging our global presence, the synergies of our business and large-scale, flexible capital to achieve strong returns across market cycles.

We offer our clients a large and growing number of investment products to assist them in achieving their financial goals, providing a diverse set of long-term and perpetual private funds and dedicated public vehicles across each of the asset classes in which we invest and spanning various investment strategies.

As the asset manager of these investment products, our asset management business earns base management fees in addition to incentive distributions, performance fees, or carried interest depending on the product offering.

Our asset management business focuses on raising capital by establishing new investment products for our clients, identifying and acquiring high-quality assets, delivering strong underlying investment performance and executing timely monetizations or refinancings. If we execute in these areas, this should equate to growth in fee-bearing and carry eligible capital and in turn higher fee revenues, fee-related earnings and realized carried interest over time.

We also include the discretionary capital that we invest directly into and alongside private funds managed by BAM and other investments within the results of our asset management business. These investments include flagship real estate private funds that are managed by BAM with long-term track records of earning strong returns, as well as capital invested in other real estate, private equity, opportunistic and other credit funds managed by BAM, and other investments.

*Operations*

*Long-term Private Funds – $285 billion fee-bearing capital*

Our asset management business manages and earns fees on a diverse range of renewable power and transition, infrastructure, private equity, real estate and credit funds. These funds have a long duration, are closed-end and include opportunistic, value-add, core and core plus investment strategies.

On long-term private fund capital, our asset management business earns:

1. Diversified and long-term base management fees on capital that is typically committed for 10 years with two one-year extension options.

2. Carried interest, which enables our business to receive a portion of overall fund profits provided that investors receive a minimum prescribed preferred return. Carried interest is recognized when a fund's cumulative returns are in excess of preferred returns and when it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur.

3. Transaction and advisory fees are one-time fees earned on co-investment capital related to the close of transactions, and vary based on transaction agreements.

*Perpetual Strategies – $241 billion fee-bearing capital*

Our asset management business manages the perpetual capital in our perpetual affiliates, as well as in its core and core plus private funds, which can continually raise new capital. From these perpetual strategies, our business earns:

1. Long-term perpetual base management fees, which are based on total capitalization or net asset value ("NAV") of our perpetual

Brookfield Corporation *- 2025 Annual Information Form&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;19*

------

affiliates and the NAV of its perpetual private funds.

2. Stable incentive distribution fees which are linked to cash distributions from perpetual affiliates (BEP/BEPC and BIP/BIPC) that exceed predetermined thresholds. These cash distributions have a historical track record of growing annually and each of these perpetual affiliates target annual distribution growth rates within a range of 5-9%.

3. Performance fees based on unit price performance (BBU) and carried interest on its perpetual private funds.

*Liquid Strategies* – *$77 billion fee-bearing capital* 

Our asset management business manages publicly listed funds and separately managed accounts, focused on fixed income and equity securities across real estate, infrastructure and natural resources. Our business earns base management fees, which are based on committed capital and fund NAV, and performance income based on investment returns

***Wealth Solutions***

*Business Overview*

• Our wealth solutions business is an investment-led insurance organization focused on securing the financial futures of individuals and institutions through a range of retirement services, wealth protection products and tailored capital solutions. Through its operating subsidiaries, Brookfield Wealth Solutions offers a broad range of insurance products and services, including annuities, personal and commercial property and casualty insurance, and life insurance.

• The business creates value by using our globally diversified operating platform to originate low-risk liabilities that deliver a highly competitive risk-adjusted cost of capital to support operations, applying a proactive risk management approach to minimize the risk of underwritten liabilities, and leveraging Brookfield's broader investment capabilities to source high-quality investment opportunities across real assets (debt and equity) that are well suited to the underlying insurance liabilities.

• In doing so, our wealth solutions business seeks to generate a 15%+ return on equity over the long term by investing in a balanced investment portfolio, including liquid fixed income and real assets, to earn an investment return that exceeds its cost of liabilities.

• Our capital invested in our wealth solutions business is held via our equity accounted investment in Brookfield Wealth Solutions, which is listed on the NYSE and TSX. We refer to Brookfield Wealth Solutions as a "paired entity" to the Corporation. Each Brookfield Wealth Solutions Class A exchangeable share has been structured with the intention of providing an economic return equivalent to one Class A Share due to each exchangeable share (i) being exchangeable at the option of the holder for one Class A Share or its cash equivalent (the form of payment to be determined at the election of BN), subject to certain limitations, and (ii) receiving distributions at the same time and in the same amounts as dividends on the Class A Shares.

• The business may seek to add duration and diversification to its investment portfolio by acquiring public and private assets across many asset classes, including, but not limited to, real estate, royalties, public securities, and private credit. These investments could be made in the open market or from BN and its related party affiliate entities.

*Life Insurance*

Our primary insurance products and coverages include:

• Universal life insurance products that provide coverage through a contract that gives the policyholder flexibility in premium payments and coverage amounts; and

• Variable universal life products that provide insurance coverage on a similar basis as universal life, except that the policyholder bears the investment risk because the value of the policyholder's account balance varies with the investment experience of the securities selected by the policyholder held in the separate account.

• The fixed price that we are required to pay BEP increases annually based on inflation, not to exceed 3%. In addition, from 2021 to 2025, the price gradually stepped down by $3 per megawatt hour ("MWh"), followed by a $5/MWh reduction in 2026. The contract expires in 2046 and provides us the right to terminate the agreement in 2036.

• We sell the power into the open market and also earn ancillary revenues, such as capacity fees and renewable power credits, which provide us with increased participation in future increases or decreases in power prices.

In addition, we operate a leading land development and homebuilding platform in North America ("North American Residential").

*Operations*

*Super Core*

space.

• We also own 27 high-quality retail centers with 27 million square feet of retail space in the U.S., which are 97% leased and generate substantial and consistent cash flows.

*Value Add*

• Our value add portfolio consists of 50 assets primarily located in secondary markets that we expect to reposition to enhance NOI and monetize for value over time.

• We own interests and operate office assets in 5 major cities in North America, consisting of 9 properties totaling 6 million square feet of leasable space.

• We also own 41 quality retail properties with 38 million square feet of space in the U.S., which are strong retail centers and generate substantial and consistent cash flows but are not considered dominant irreplaceable centers.

*Opportunistic*

• Our opportunistic portfolio consists of 33 assets in dislocated markets, representing 1% of our total portfolio, that have limited capital at risk and the opportunity to realize incremental returns over time through strategic repositioning.

• We own interests and operate office assets in 8 major cities in North America and Australia, consisting of 23 properties totaling 11 million square feet of leasable space.

• We measure value for this business based on a combination of IFRS values and comparable market data for our land and housing operations.

***Corporate Activities***

*Business Overview*

• Our corporate activities support the overall business with a focus on prudent capital allocation that will compound value for our shareholders over the long-term.

• Corporate activities include, but are not limited to, supporting the growth in our asset management business, wealth solutions business and our operating businesses, and providing capital throughout the organization, when needed. In addition, we will make direct investments on an opportunistic basis.

• We also hold cash and financial assets as part of our liquidity management operations and enter into financial contracts to manage residual foreign exchange and other risks, as appropriate.

**Financing Strategy** 

We manage our liquidity and capitalization on a group-wide basis, which we organize into three principal tiers:

i) BN:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Strong levels of liquidity are maintained to support growth and ongoing operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Capitalization consists of a large common equity base, supplemented with perpetual preferred shares, long-dated corporate bonds and, from time to time, draws on our corporate credit facilities.

Brookfield Corporation *- 2025 Annual Information Form&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;25*

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Certain guarantees are or may be provided on the financial obligations of perpetual affiliates and managed funds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• High levels of cash flows are available after payment of common and preferred share dividends.

ii)Our three core businesses, including BAM, Brookfield Wealth Solutions, and our operating businesses (renewable power and transition, infrastructure, private equity and real estate):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Strong levels of liquidity are maintained at each of our core businesses to support their growth and ongoing operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Each business is intended to be self-funding with stable capitalization through market cycles.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Financial obligations within our core businesses have no recourse to BN.

iii)Investment-level, including underlying investments within our core businesses and our directly held assets:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Each underlying investment is typically funded on a standalone basis using asset-level financing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Fund-level borrowings within our asset management business are generally limited to subscription facilities backed by the capital commitments to the fund.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Financial obligations within our assets and funds have no recourse to BN.

We maintain a prudent level of long-dated capitalization in the form of common equity, perpetual preferred shares and corporate bonds, which provides a very stable capital structure. In addition, we maintain appropriate levels of liquidity throughout the organization to fund operating, development and investment activities as well as unforeseen requirements.

A key element of our capital strategy is to maintain significant liquidity at the corporate level, primarily in the form of cash, financial assets and undrawn credit lines.

Within BAM, Brookfield Wealth Solutions, and our operating businesses, we strive to:

• Ensure our businesses can finance their operations on a standalone basis without recourse to or reliance on BN

• Structure borrowings and other financial obligations associated with assets or portfolio companies to provide a stable capitalization at levels that are attractive to investors, are sustainable on a long-term basis and can withstand economic cycles.

• Ensure the vast majority of this debt is at investment-grade levels; however, periodically, we may borrow at sub-investment grade levels in certain parts of our business where the borrowings are carefully structured and monitored.

• Provide recourse only to the specific businesses or assets being financed, without cross-collateralization or parental guarantees

• Match the duration of our debt to the underlying leases or contracts and match the currency of our debt to that of the assets such that our remaining exposure is on the net equity of the investment.

As at December 31, 2025, only $14 billion of long-term debt has recourse to BN. The remaining debt on our consolidated balance sheet is held within managed entities and has no recourse to BN but is consolidated under IFRS Accounting Standards.

**Operating Capabilities** 

*Synergies Across Strategies*

We believe that separation of business activities achieves efficient capital structures and focused growth opportunities and collaboration achieves higher returns and better outcomes for all of our market leading businesses. BN and its market leading businesses are strategically aligned for all of them to perform and deliver strong results for stakeholders.

We have a team of over 5,800 investment professionals, asset management professionals and employees, which includes Oaktree employees that will become Brookfield employees following the completion of the Oaktree acquisition and approximately 1,500 fully-dedicated Brookfield operating employees, that are integral to the business, including individuals focused on our core investment strategies and those undertaking various corporate activities. Globally, we are supported by approximately 250,000 operating employees located in over 50 countries on five continents, providing Brookfield with deep investment and operating expertise across several sectors and industries, global reach and unique access to proprietary investment opportunities. The complementary skill sets of our people position us to manage operational risk, achieve operating efficiencies and enhance returns.

*Identify and Invest in High-Quality Assets*

We follow a value-based approach to investing and allocating capital. We believe that our disciplined approach, global reach and our operating expertise enable us to identify a wide range of potential opportunities, and allow us to invest at attractive valuations

26*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*Brookfield Corporation *- 2025 Annual Information Form*

and generate superior risk-adjusted returns. We also leverage our considerable expertise in executing recapitalizations, operational turnarounds and large development and capital projects, providing additional opportunities to deploy capital.

*Secure Long-Term Financing*

We finance our operations predominantly on a long-term, investment-grade basis, and most of our capital consists of equity and standalone asset-by-asset financing with minimal recourse to other parts of the organization. We utilize relatively modest levels of corporate debt to provide operational flexibility and optimize returns. This provides us with considerable stability, improves our ability to withstand financial downturns and enables our management teams to focus on operations and other growth initiatives.

*Enhance Value and Cash Flows Through Operating Expertise*

Our strong, time-tested operating capabilities enable us to increase the value of the assets within our businesses and the cash flows they produce, and they help to protect capital in adverse conditions. Our operating expertise, development capabilities and effective financing can help ensure that an investment's full value creation potential is realized, which we believe is one of our most important competitive advantages.

*Realize Capital from Asset Sale or Refinancings*

We actively monitor opportunities to sell or refinance assets to generate proceeds; in the limited life funds of our asset management business that capital is returned to investors, and in the case of perpetual funds, we then redeploy the capital to enhance returns. In many cases, returning capital from private funds completes the investment process, locks in investor returns and gives rise to performance income.

*Our Operating Cycle Leads to Value Creation* 

We create value from earning robust returns on our investments that compound over time and grow the fee-bearing capital of our asset management business. By generating value for our investors and shareholders, we increase fees and carried interest received in our asset management business, and grow cash flows that compound value in our invested capital.

**Risk Management**

*Our Approach*

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Focus on Risk Culture**<br>Maintain an effective risk culture that aligns with our business strategy and risk appetite | **Centralized Oversight and Coordination** <br>Coordinated management of common risks across business and functional groups, with consistent approaches and practices | **Shared Execution**<br>Business and functional groups have primary responsibility for identifying and managing risks within their business |

---

Managing risk is an integral and critical part of our business. We have a well-established, proactive and disciplined risk management approach that is based on clear operating methods and a strong risk management culture. We ensure that we have the necessary capacity and resilience to respond to changing environments by evaluating both current and emerging risks. A robust risk management framework and methodology that is designed to enable comprehensive and consistent management of risk across the organization, has been implemented. We use a thorough and integrated risk assessment process to identify and evaluate risk areas across the business, including human capital, climate change, cybersecurity, liquidity, disruption, regulatory compliance and other strategic, financial, and operational risks. Management and mitigation approaches are tailored to the specific risk areas and executed by business and functional groups for their businesses and areas of responsibility, with appropriate coordination and oversight through centralized monitoring and reporting processes.

***Focus on Risk Culture***

A strong risk culture is the cornerstone of our risk management program: one that promotes measured and appropriate risk-taking, addresses current and emerging risks, and ensures employees conduct business with a long-term perspective and in a sustainable and ethical manner. This culture is reinforced by the strong commitment and leadership of our senior executives and supported by the policies and practices we have implemented, including our compensation approach.

Brookfield Corporation *- 2025 Annual Information Form&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;27*

------

***Centralized Oversight and Coordination***

We have implemented strong governance practices to monitor and oversee our risk management program. Management committees bring together required expertise to manage key risk areas, ensuring appropriate application and coordination of risk management practices across our business and functional groups, and include the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Risk Management Steering Committee: supports the overall risk management program and coordinates risk assessment and mitigation on an enterprise-wide basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Investment Committees: the respective investment committee oversees the investment process and reviews and approves investment transactions of that business group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Conflicts Committee: resolves potential conflict situations related to investment processes and other corporate transactions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Financial Risk Oversight Committee: reviews and monitors financial exposures.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Sustainability Leadership: oversees, coordinates and implements activities related to sustainability, including reviewing current and future initiatives, and monitoring sector and market trends.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Safety Leadership Committee: promotes a strong safety culture, monitors safety trends, and sponsors strategic initiatives related to health, safety, security and environmental matters.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net Zero Steering Committee: develops decarbonization targets, operationalizes decarbonization approaches and shares best practices across the organization.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Cyber Leadership Committee: facilitates knowledge sharing, including identification and mitigation of emerging threats, and enhances collaboration to help ensure efficient use of resources and maintenance of effective cybersecurity programs across business groups.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Disclosure Committee: oversees the public disclosure of material information.

***Shared Execution***

Given the diversified and decentralized nature of our operations, we seek to ensure that risk is managed as close to its source as possible and by management teams that have the most knowledge and expertise in the specific business or risk area. As such, business specific risks—such as health and safety, environmental and other operational risks—are generally managed at the operating business level, as the risks vary based on the nature of each business. At the same time, we monitor key risks organization-wide to ensure adequacy of risk management, adherence to applicable Brookfield policies, and sharing of best practices.

For risks that are more pervasive and correlated in their impact across the organization—such as liquidity, foreign exchange and interest rates or where we can bring specialized knowledge—we utilize a coordinated approach that is centralized amongst our corporate and business groups. Management of strategic, reputational and regulatory and compliance risks are similarly coordinated to ensure consistent focus and implementation across the organization.

**Employees**

We have over 5,800 investment professionals, asset management professionals and employees, which includes Oaktree employees that will become Brookfield employees following the completion of the Oaktree acquisition, and approximately 1,500 fully-dedicated Brookfield operating employees, that are integral to the business, including individuals focused on our core investment strategies and those undertaking various corporate activities. Globally, we are supported by approximately 250,000 operating employees located in over 50 countries on five continents, providing Brookfield with deep investment and operating expertise across several sectors and industries, global reach and unique access to proprietary investment opportunities.

**CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS** 

We have a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the "Code") that sets out the expected conduct of our directors, officers and employees, and those of BN's subsidiaries and controlled affiliates, in relation to honesty, integrity and compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements. BN's board of directors (the "Board of Directors" or "Board") approved the Code on February 12, 2025. Copies of the Code are available on SEDAR+ at *www.sedarplus.ca* and EDGAR at *www.sec.gov/edgar*, and may also be obtained on our website at *bn.brookfield.com* under "Investors/Brookfield Corporation/Corporate Governance/Governance Documents."

**BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT AND RISKS** 

Our businesses continuously face certain micro- and macro-economic risks that could adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations and equity value. For information about risk factors related to BN and its businesses, reference is made to the section entitled "Business Environment and Risks" on pages 108 to 132 of our MD&A, which pages are incorporated by reference in this Annual Information Form and available on SEDAR+ at *www.sedarplus.ca* and EDGAR at *www.sec.gov/edgar*.

**SUSTAINABILITY** 

**Sustainability at Brookfield**

We believe that value creation and sustainable business practices are complementary goals. Drawing on more than 100 years of experience as an owner and operator, we invest for value and seek to generate strong risk-adjusted returns for our clients across economic cycles. Our investment strategy has remained consistent throughout our history—we focus on utilizing our operational expertise to enhance long-term value through strategic and operational improvements within our operating businesses and portfolio companies.

Our Sustainability Policy codifies our longstanding strategy of integrating sustainability considerations into decision-making. It is based on the following guiding principles: mitigating the impact of our operations on the environment; striving to promote the well-being and safety of our workforce; upholding strong governance practices and acting as good corporate citizens.

For further information, we publish on our website an annual sustainability report, which provides details about our approach to integrating sustainability across our business. Our disclosures consider the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards, and are aligned with the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations.

*Sustainability Organization and Governance*

Our Board oversees our business, including reviewing major strategic initiatives and receiving progress reports on the firm's sustainability initiatives throughout the year.

Our approach to sustainability has sponsorship and oversight from the CEOs and sustainability leads of each business group, supported by senior executives. Functional leaders (i.e., Technology Services and Human Resources) are responsible for developing, implementing and monitoring relevant sustainability factors within their functional area.

*Integrating Sustainability into Our Investment Process*

As part of our due diligence over investments where we have control or significant influence, we seek to assess sustainability-related opportunities and risks and factor them into the overall investment decision. This includes leveraging industry guidance to identify sustainability factors most likely to materially impact the financial condition or operating performance of companies in a given sector.

Our Sustainability Due Diligence Protocol provides guidance to investment teams on assessing bribery and corruption, cybersecurity, health and safety, human rights, modern slavery and climate-related risks, among other factors. Where warranted, we perform deeper due diligence, working with internal and third-party experts, as appropriate.

Investments, other than *de minimis* or follow on investments, must be approved by the applicable Investment Committee. Investment teams present the Investment Committee with the merits of each transaction, its material risks, mitigants and significant opportunities for improvement, including sustainability aspects and their potential implications for investment returns. As part of each acquisition, investment teams develop a customized integration plan that encompasses, among other items, material sustainability-related matters for evaluation or implementation.

Consistent with our management approach, it is the responsibility of management teams within each portfolio company to manage sustainability opportunities and risks through the investment's life cycle, supported by our relevant investment teams. Management teams regularly report to their respective boards of directors from both financial and operating perspectives, including key performance indicators that incorporate material sustainability factors.

When preparing an asset for divestiture, we seek to outline potential value creation deriving from several different factors, including relevant sustainability considerations.

*Human Capital Development*

Our people are our most important asset. The core values of collaboration, entrepreneurship and discipline underpin our firmwide culture. We invest in our people and prepare them for future leadership. Our firmwide culture, from our dealings with clients to the interactions among employees and executives, is defined by mutual respect, teamwork and passion, and revolves around our core values:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Collaboration: Leadership works side by side with colleagues throughout the organization and is committed to achieving shared success. One of the key attributes that we screen carefully for in new hires is their aptitude to collaborate with others. The firm wants people to share information across groups and take an interest in all the businesses, not just the one they happen to work for at any particular point in time. We do not hire people just for a specific job; we hire for the potential of all the future positions they might hold and that will contribute to the broader success of the firm.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Entrepreneurship: Our flat organization is results-oriented—responsibility is earned based on initiative and hard work, rather than job title—and decisions are made close to the action. This principle is not uncommon, but we have encouraged our entrepreneurial spirit throughout our growth. We look for employees who have a passion not only for what they do but also for what the firm does. The shared values of ownership extend beyond helping the company succeed or generate more revenue. It means caring about the little things as well, such as not wasting money and treating everyone with respect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Discipline: Our team shares an awareness of, and commitment to, our goal of generating superior long-term returns for investors. Discipline also requires that each person is expected to have a realistic understanding of his or her own abilities. We expect employees to understand their strengths, recognize their weaknesses, be willing to stretch outside their comfort zones, and be willing to ask for help when necessary.

We are committed to a hiring process that is objective, nondiscriminatory and in compliance with all applicable legislation and good governance. It is grounded in our commitment to provide equal employment opportunities with the objective of attracting the most qualified talent to our business. We proactively recruit people who align with the attributes of a Brookfield leader and have the potential to develop within our organization. Our succession process focuses on the development of early career candidates through stretch roles and exposure.

**CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRACTICES** 

On behalf of all stakeholders, the Board of Directors and management of BN are committed to excellence in corporate governance at all levels of the organization. We believe BN's directors are well equipped to represent the interests of BN and its stakeholders, with an independent chair leading a board that features global business experience, diversity and proven governance skills. We continually strive to ensure that we have sound governance practices to maintain investor confidence. We review our approach to governance in relation to evolving legislation, guidelines and best practices. Our Board of Directors is of the view that our corporate governance policies and practices and our disclosure in this regard are appropriate, effective and consistent with the guidelines established by Canadian and U.S. securities regulators.

Our Board of Directors believes that communication with shareholders is a critical element of good governance and the Board encourages all shareholders to express their views, including by way of an advisory shareholder resolution on executive compensation which is voted on annually by holders of Class A Shares.

BN outlines its commitment to good governance in the Statement of Corporate Governance Practices (the "Statement") that is published each year in BN's Management Information Circular (the "Circular") and mailed to shareholders who request it. The Statement is also available on our website, *bn.brookfield.com*, at "Investors/Brookfield Corporation/Corporate Governance."

Shareholders can also access the following documents that outline our approach to governance on our website: the Board of Directors Charter, the Charter of Expectations for Directors, the Charters of the Board's four Standing Committees (Audit, Governance and Nominating, Management Resources and Compensation and Risk Management), Board Position Descriptions, our Corporate Disclosure Policy and our Code.

**RATINGS AND LIQUIDITY**

The credit ratings for BN's securities as at the date of this Annual Information Form are as follows:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | Standard & Poor's | Fitch | Moody's | DBRS |
| Commercial paper | A-1<sup>1</sup> | F2 | P-2 | R-1 (low) |

| Subordinated notes | BBB | BBB | Baa2 | BBB (high) |
| Preferred shares | BBB<sup>2</sup>  | BBB | Not rated | Pfd-2 |
| Outlook | Stable | Stable | Stable | Stable |

---

<sup>1</sup>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*BN's commercial paper is rated A-1 (Mid) based on S&P's Canadian National Scale, which corresponds to a rating of A-1 using S&P's global scale.*

<sup>2</sup>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*BN's preferred shares are rated P-2 based on S&P's Canadian National Scale, which corresponds to a rating of BBB using S&P's global scale.*

Credit ratings are important to BN's borrowing costs and ability to raise funds. A ratings downgrade could potentially result in adverse consequences by reducing BN's access to the capital markets and increasing its borrowing costs. The terms of our various credit agreements and other financing documents require us to comply with a number of customary financial and other covenants, such as maintaining debt service coverage and leverage ratios, insurance coverage and, in limited circumstances, ratings levels.

Brookfield Corporation *- 2025 Annual Information Form&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;33*

------

These covenants may limit our operational flexibility, and breaches of these covenants could result in defaults under the instruments governing the applicable indebtedness even if we have satisfied our payment obligations.

Credit ratings are intended to provide investors with an independent measure of the credit quality of an issue of securities. Each of BN's commercial paper, senior notes and debentures, subordinated notes and preferred shares are rated by S&P Global Ratings ("S&P"), and by Fitch Ratings, Inc. ("Fitch"), and DBRS Limited ("DBRS") and its commercial paper, senior notes and debentures, and subordinated notes are rated by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's").

BN has paid customary ratings fees to S&P, Fitch, Moody's and DBRS in connection with some or all of the above-mentioned ratings. In addition, BN has made customary payments in respect of certain other services provided to BN by each of S&P, Fitch, Moody's and DBRS during the last two years.

The ratings discussed herein for BN's securities are not a recommendation to purchase, hold or sell BN's securities and do not comment as to the appropriateness of their respective market prices or suitability for a particular investor. There can be no assurance that the ratings discussed herein will remain in effect for any given period of time or that the ratings will not be revised or withdrawn in their entirety by any or all of S&P, Fitch, Moody's, or DBRS, at any time if, in their sole discretion, circumstances so warrant.

The investment ratings of our publicly traded subsidiaries are presented in the respective public disclosures of these subsidiaries, which are available on SEDAR+ at *www.sedarplus.ca* and/or EDGAR at *www.sec.gov/edgar*.

The following is a brief description of each rating agency's rating scales.

**S&P** 

S&P has different rating scales for short-term debt, long-term debt and preferred shares. S&P rates commercial paper, senior notes and debentures, subordinated notes and preferred shares with ratings of "AAA,", which represent the highest rating, to "C" which represents the lowest, with "D" for issues in payment default. To show relative rankings within these rating categories, S&P may modify them by the addition of a plus "(+)" or minus "(-)".

S&P further modifies its ratings by indicating the stability and future direction of an assigned rating with terms such as "stable," "positive," "negative" and "developing." A rating outlook assesses the potential direction of a long-term credit rating over the intermediate term (typically six months to two years). An outlook is not necessarily a precursor of a rating change or future CreditWatch<sup>2</sup> action.

S&P also provides national scale credit ratings which are an opinion of an obligor's creditworthiness or overall capacity to meet specific financial obligations, relative to other issuers and issues in a given country or region. The Canadian National Scale rating is fully determined by the applicable global scale rating, and there are no additional analytical criteria associated with the determination of ratings on the Canadian National Scale.

S&P short-term ratings indicate the creditworthiness of an obligor with respect to its short-term obligations. BN has a U.S. commercial paper program and a Canadian commercial paper program. The A-1 rating, based on S&P's global scale, is assigned to BN's commercial paper. A short-term obligation rated A-1 is rated in the highest category by S&P. The obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is strong. An A-1 rating is the highest of the six categories on the short-term global scale. A Canadian commercial paper rating is a forward-looking opinion about the capacity of an obligor to meet financial commitments associated with a specific commercial paper program or other short-term financial instrument relative to the debt servicing and repayment capacity of other obligors active in the Canadian domestic financial markets with respect to their own financial obligations. S&P has rated BN's commercial paper as A-1 (Mid) based on the Canadian National Scale for commercial paper, which is the equivalent of an A-1 rating on S&P's global scale. An A-1 (Mid) rating is the second highest of the eight categories on the Canadian National Scale for commercial paper.

S&P long-term issue credit ratings are based on the following considerations: likelihood of payment capacity and willingness of the obligor to meet its financial commitments on an obligation in accordance with the terms of the obligation; nature of and provisions of the financial obligation; and protection afforded by, and relative position of, the financial obligation in the event of a bankruptcy, reorganization, or other arrangement under the laws of bankruptcy and other laws affecting creditors' rights. The A- rating is assigned to BN's senior unsecured debt. An obligation rated A- is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than obligations in higher-rated categories. However, the obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation is still strong. A- is the lowest sub-category within the third highest rating of the ten standard categories of ratings on S&P's long-term rating issuer credit rating scale.

<sup>2</sup> CreditWatch highlights the potential direction of a short- or long-term rating. It focuses on identifiable events and short-term trends that may cause ratings to be placed under special surveillance by S&P.

34*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*Brookfield Corporation *- 2025 Annual Information Form*

------

BN's subordinated notes have been assigned a BBB rating. An obligation rated BBB exhibits adequate protection parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to weaken the obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation. BBB is the second sub-category out of three within the fourth highest rating of the ten standard categories of ratings on S&P's long-term rating issuer credit rating scale. An S&P preferred share rating on the Canadian National Scale is a forward-looking opinion about the creditworthiness of an obligor with respect to a specific preferred share obligation issued in the Canadian market relative to preferred shares issued by other issuers in the Canadian market. BN's preferred shares have been assigned a rating of P-2 on S&P's Canadian National Scale for preferred shares. The P-2 rating category is the second highest of the eight categories on the Canadian preferred share scale. Based on S&P's global scale, BN's preferred shares are rated BBB, which corresponds to a rating of P-2 on the Canadian National Scale for preferred shares. BBB is the middle sub-category within the third highest rating of the nine standard categories of ratings on S&P's global scale for preferred shares. According to the S&P rating system, securities rated P-2 exhibit adequate protection parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to weaken the obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation.

**Fitch** 

Fitch's credit ratings relating to issuers are forward-looking opinions on the relative ability of an entity to meet financial commitments, such as interest, preferred dividends, repayment of principal, insurance claims or counterparty obligations. Credit ratings relating to securities and obligations of an issuer can include a recovery expectation. Credit ratings are used by investors as indications of the likelihood of receiving the money owed to them in accordance with the terms on which they invested. The agency's credit ratings cover the global spectrum of corporate, sovereign financial, bank, insurance, and public finance entities (including supranational and sub-national entities) and the securities or other obligations they issue, as well as structured finance securities backed by receivables or other financial assets.

A short-term issuer or obligation rating is based in all cases on the short-term vulnerability to default of the rated entity and relates to the capacity to meet financial obligations in accordance with the documentation governing the relevant obligation. Short term ratings are assigned to obligations whose initial maturity is viewed as "short term" based on market convention. Typically, this means up to 13 months for corporate, sovereign, and structured obligations.

The F2 rating assigned to BN's commercial paper indicates that BN has good intrinsic capacity for timely payment of financial commitments. An F2 rating is the second highest of the five categories on Fitch's short-term rating scale.

Fitch rates long-term obligations with ratings of "AAA", which represents the highest rating, to "C", which represents the lowest with "RD" and "D" for issues in payment default. To show relative rankings within these categories, Fitch may modify them by the addition of a plus "(+)" or minus "(-)". Fitch rates short-term obligations with ratings of "F1", which represents the highest rating, to "C", which represents the lowest with "RD" and "D" for issues in payment default. Fitch modifies its ratings by indicating the outlook of an assigned rating with terms such as "stable," "positive," "evolving" and "negative."

The A- rating assigned to BN's senior unsecured debt denotes expectations of low credit risk. The capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered strong. This capacity may, nevertheless, be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic conditions than is the case for higher ratings. The minus "(-)" modifier is the lowest rating level within the third highest rating of the nine standard categories of ratings on Fitch's long-term rating scale.

The BBB rating assigned to BN's subordinated notes indicate that expectations of credit risk are currently low. The capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered adequate but adverse business or economic conditions are more likely to impair this capacity. The absence of a modifier denotes that it is in the second rating level out of three within the fourth highest rating of the nine standard categories of ratings on Fitch's long-term rating scale.

**Moody's** 

Moody's has different rating scales for short-term debt, long-term debt and preferred shares. Ratings assigned by Moody's, based on its global long-term and short-term rating scales, are forward-looking opinions of the relative credit risks of financial obligations issued by a company. Moody's also provides rating outlook designations which is an opinion regarding the likely rating direction over the medium term. A "Stable" outlook indicates a low likelihood of a rating change over the medium term.

Moody's rates commercial paper and long-term obligations with ratings of "P-1" and "Aaa", respectively, which represent the highest ratings, to "NP" and "C", respectively, which represent the lowest. Moody's appends numerical modifiers 1, 2 and 3 to each generic rating classification from Aa through Caa. The modifier 1 indicates that the obligation ranks in the higher end of its generic rating category; the modifier 2 indicates a mid-range ranking; and the modifier 3 indicates a ranking in the lower end of that generic rating category.

Moody's short-term ratings are assigned to obligations with an original maturity of 13 months or less and reflect both on the likelihood of a default on contractually promised payments and the expected financial loss suffered in the event of default. The P-2

Brookfield Corporation *- 2025 Annual Information Form&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;35*

------

Stable rating assigned to BN's commercial paper indicates that BN has a strong ability to repay its short-term debt obligations. A P-2 rating is the second highest of the four categories on Moody's short-term rating scale.

Moody's long-term ratings are assigned to issuers or obligations with an original maturity of one-year or more and reflect both on the likelihood of a default on contractually promised payments and the expected financial loss suffered in the event of default. The A3 Stable rating assigned to BN's senior unsecured debt indicates that they are judged to be upper-medium grade and are subject to low credit risk. A3 indicates a ranking in the lower end of the third highest rating of the nine standard categories of ratings on Moody's long-term rating scale.

The Baa2 Stable rating assigned to BN's subordinated notes indicates that they are judged to be medium-grade and subject to moderate credit risk and as such may possess certain speculative characteristics. Baa2 indicates a mid-range ranking within the fourth highest rating of the nine standard categories of ratings on Moody's long-term rating scale.

**DBRS**

DBRS has different rating scales for short-term debt, long-term debt and preferred shares. Every DBRS rating is based on quantitative and qualitative considerations relevant to the issuer and the relative ranking of claims.

The DBRS short-term debt rating scale provides an opinion on the risk that an issuer will not meet its short-term financial obligations in a timely manner. The R-1 and R-2 rating categories are further denoted by the subcategories "(high)", "(middle)" and "(low)." The R-1 (low) rating assigned to BN's commercial paper indicates good credit quality and that BN's capacity for the payment of short-term financial obligations as they fall due is substantial. Overall strength is not as favorable as higher rating categories. The obligor may be vulnerable to future events, but qualifying negative factors are considered manageable. An R-1 (low) rating is the third highest of the ten categories utilized by DBRS on its short-term debt rating scale.

The DBRS long-term rating scale provides an opinion on the risk of default. That is, the risk that an issuer will fail to satisfy its financial obligations in accordance with the terms under which an obligation has been issued. All rating categories other than AAA and D also contain subcategories "(high)" and "(low)". The A rating assigned to BN's senior notes and debentures indicate they are of good credit quality. The capacity for the payment of financial obligations is substantial, but of lesser credit quality than AA. The obligor may be vulnerable to future events, but qualifying negative factors are considered manageable. A is the third highest rating of the ten standard categories of ratings utilized by DBRS on its long-term rating scale. The absence of either a "(high)" or "(low)" designation indicates the rating is in the middle of the category.

The BBB (high) assigned to BN's subordinated notes indicate adequate credit quality. The capacity for the payment of financial obligations is considered acceptable. The obligor may be vulnerable to future events. BBB (high) is the highest sub-category in the fourth highest rating of the ten standard categories of ratings utilized by DBRS on its long-term rating scale.

The DBRS preferred share rating scale is used in the Canadian securities market and is meant to give an indication of the risk that a borrower will not fulfill its full obligations in a timely manner, with respect to both dividend and principal commitments. Each rating category is denoted by the subcategories "(high)" and "(low)". The Pfd-2 rating assigned to BN's preferred shares indicates that the preferred shares are generally of good credit quality. Protection of dividends and principal is still substantial, but earnings, the balance sheet and coverage ratios are not as strong as Pfd-1 rated companies. Generally, Pfd-2 ratings correspond with companies whose senior bonds are rated in the A category. Pfd-2 is the second highest rating of the six standard categories of ratings utilized by DBRS on its preferred share rating scale. The absence of either a "(high)" or "(low)" designation indicates the rating is in the middle of the category.

Rating trends provide guidance in respect of DBRS's opinion regarding outlook for the rating in question. The "Stable" rating trend indicates a lower likelihood that the rating could change in the future than would be the case if the rating trend was positive or negative.

**DIVIDENDS AND DIVIDEND POLICY** 

**Class A Shares and Class B Shares** 

The declaration and payment of dividends on BN's Class A Shares and Class B Shares are at the discretion of the Board. Dividends on the Class A Shares and Class B Shares are paid quarterly, at the end of March, June, September and December of each year. The Board supports a stable and consistent dividend policy and will consider increasing dividends from time to time at a rate based on a portion of the growth rate in cash flow from operations per share. Special dividends may also be declared from time to time to implement corporate strategic initiatives.

BN has a Dividend Reinvestment Plan which enables registered holders of Class A Shares who are resident in the U.S. or Canada to receive their dividends in the form of newly issued Class A Shares.

36*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*Brookfield Corporation *- 2025 Annual Information Form*

------

Registered shareholders of Class A Shares who are resident in the U.S. may elect to receive their dividends in the form of newly issued Class A Shares at a price equal to the volume-weighted average price (in U.S. dollars) at which board lots of Class A Shares have traded on the NYSE based on the average closing price during each of the five trading days immediately preceding the relevant Investment Date<sup>1</sup> on which at least one board lot of Class A Shares has traded, as reported by the NYSE (the "NYSE VWAP").

Registered shareholders of Class A Shares who are resident in Canada may also elect to receive their dividends in the form of newly issued Class A Shares at a price equal to the NYSE VWAP multiplied by an exchange factor which is calculated as the average daily exchange rate as reported by the Bank of Canada during each of the five trading days immediately preceding the relevant Investment Date.

Our Dividend Reinvestment Plan allows current shareholders of BN who are resident in the U.S. or Canada to increase their investment in BN free of commissions.

Dividends on the Class A Shares and B Shares have been adjusted to reflect the three-for-two stock split completed on October 9, 2025.

**Preferred Shares** 

The declaration and payment of dividends on BN's preferred shares are at the discretion of the Board. Dividends on BN's Class A Preference Shares, Series 2, 4, 13, 17, 18, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34, 36, 37, 38, 40, 42, 44, 48 and 54 are paid quarterly, normally at the end of March, June, September and December of each year. Dividends on BN's Class A Preference Shares, Series 51 are paid on the 12th day of each month. Dividends on BN's Class A Preference Shares, Series 52 are paid on the first day of February, May, August and November of each year.

**AUDIT COMMITTEE INFORMATION** 

**Responsibilities of the Audit Committee** 

The Board has established an Audit Committee (the "Audit Committee") with the responsibility for monitoring BN's systems and procedures for financial reporting and internal controls, for reviewing all public disclosure documents containing financial information, for reviewing BN's policies with respect to risk assessment and management, and for monitoring the performance of the BN's external and internal auditors. The responsibilities of the Audit Committee are set out in a written charter, which is reviewed and approved annually by the Board. The current Charter of the Audit Committee is set out in full in Appendix C to this Annual Information Form.

**Composition of the Audit Committee**

As at the date of this Annual Information Form, the Audit Committee is comprised of the following three directors: Satish Rai,<sup>2</sup> Rafael Miranda and Janice Fukakusa, who is the Audit Committee's chair. The Board has determined that all of these directors are independent and financially literate, and that Ms. Fukakusa is qualified as a "designated financial expert." Mr. Rai is the Chair of Richcraft Properties and Vice-Chair of Forum Asset Management and former Senior Advisor and Chief Investment Officer of OMERS. Ms. Fukakusa is the former Chief Administrative Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Royal Bank of Canada, a position she held for approximately 10 years. Mr. Miranda is the retired CEO of Endesa, S.A., the largest electric utility company in Spain and is former Chair of the Board of Directors of Acerinox, S.A., a stainless steel manufacturing conglomerate group based in Spain.

Ms. Fukakusa currently serves on the audit committee of three other public companies, in addition to her service on the Audit Committee. The Board has affirmatively determined that such simultaneous service by Ms. Fukakusa on the audit committees of the three other public companies will not impair her ability to effectively serve on the Audit Committee.

Additional information on the members of the Audit Committee is contained in BN's 2025 Circular.

Deloitte LLP is the principal external auditor of BN and its main consolidated reporting issuer subsidiaries (other than BEP and BEPC).

**Audit Fees.** Audit fees include fees for services that would normally be provided by the external auditor in connection with our statutory audit of BN, including fees for services necessary to perform an audit or review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). This category also includes services that generally only the external auditor reasonably can provide, including comfort letters and consents relating to certain documents filed with securities regulatory authorities.

**Audit-Related Fees.** Audit-related fees are for other statutory audits, assurance and related services, such as due diligence services, that traditionally are performed by the external auditor. More specifically, these services include, among others: statutory audits of our subsidiaries, employee benefit plan audits, accounting consultations and audits in connection with acquisitions, attest services that are not required by statute or regulation, and consultation concerning financial accounting and reporting standards.

**Tax Fees.** Tax fees are principally for assistance in tax return preparation and tax advisory services.

**All Other Fees.** All other fees include fees for certain permissible consulting and advisory services.

<sup>2</sup> Satish Rai was appointed to the Audit Committee on June 6, 2025

Brookfield Corporation *- 2025 Annual Information Form&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*41

------

**Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures**

The Audit Committee has adopted an Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy (the "Audit Policy"), which governs the provision of services by its external auditor, currently Deloitte. The Audit Policy requires Audit Committee pre-approval of all permitted audit, audit-related, tax and other non-audit services. It also specifies a number of services that may not be provided by BN's external auditor, including all services prohibited by law from being provided by the external auditor.

Under the Audit Policy, all permitted services to be provided by the external auditor must be pre-approved by the Audit Committee or a designated member of the Audit Committee. Any pre-approval granted by a designated member must be reported to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

The Audit Committee may delegate its pre-approval authority and responsibility to the audit committee of any consolidated subsidiary of BN in respect of services to be provided to such subsidiary, provided that such subsidiary's audit committee members are independent from BN and its management and such subsidiary adopts pre-approval policies and procedures that are substantially similar to those of BN, and the pre-approved services that were provided are reported to the Audit Committee.

Under the Audit Policy, the Audit Committee has established a fee threshold for pre-approved services, which is that the aggregate fees paid to the external auditor for pre-approved services must equal no more than 25% of the anticipated audit fees for BN and its subsidiaries for the prior year. Each quarter the external auditor provides the Audit Committee with a report of the audit, audit-related, tax and other non-audit services provided for the then-ended quarter, together with the actual fees incurred, for the Audit Committee's ratification.

None of the fees reported in this Annual Information Form under the heading "Principal Accountant Fees and Services" were subject to the de minimis exception from Audit Committee pre-approval provided by Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X.

**ADDITIONAL INFORMATION** 

Additional information relating to BN, including information as to directors' and executive officers' remuneration and indebtedness, the principal holders of BN's securities and securities authorized for issuance under equity compensation plans, is set out in BN's 2025 Circular.

Additional financial information on BN is provided in BN's Consolidated Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, as well as other information on BN, all of which may be found on our website at *bn.brookfield.com* and on SEDAR+ at *www.sedarplus.ca* and EDGAR at *www.sec.gov/edgar*.

***Voting Rights***

Except as indicated below, holders of all series of Class A Preference Shares are only entitled to receive notice of and to attend all meetings of shareholders at which directors are to be elected and to one vote in the election of directors in respect of each such share if eight quarterly dividends<sup>1</sup>, whether or not consecutive, are not paid<sup>2</sup>. When entitled to vote, holders will vote with the holders of Class A Shares and, in certain circumstances, with the holders of certain other series of the Class A Preference Shares in the election of one-half of the Board (less the number of directors which the holders of Class A Preference Shares, Series 2 may be entitled to elect).

Holders of Class A Preference Shares, Series 2 are only entitled to receive notice of and to attend all meetings of shareholders and to one vote in respect of each such share if dividends on such shares have not been paid for two years. In addition, if dividends have not been paid for two years, holders of such shares are entitled to elect (i) two members of the Board if the Board has seven or fewer directors or (ii) three members of the Board if the Board has more than seven members. When entitled to vote in the election of directors, holders will vote with the holders of Class A Shares and, in certain circumstances, with the holders of certain other series of the Class A Preference Shares in the election of one-half of the Board.

***Rights on Liquidation, Dissolution and Winding Up***

Holders of Class A Preference Shares are entitled to C$25.00<sup>3</sup> per share (plus accrued and unpaid dividends) in priority to any distribution to holders of shares ranking junior as to capital. Upon such payment, holders of Class A Preference Shares are not entitled to share in any further distribution of assets of BN.

***Restrictions on Dividends and Retirement of Shares***

Without the approval of holders of the applicable series of Class A Preference Shares in each case, and except as noted below, BN will not:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;declare, pay or set apart for payment any dividends (other than stock dividends in shares of BN ranking junior to the applicable series of Class A Preference Shares) on shares of BN ranking junior to the applicable series of Class A Preference Shares;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;except out of the net cash proceeds of a substantially concurrent issue of shares ranking junior to the applicable series of Class A Preference Shares, redeem, purchase or otherwise retire or make any return of capital in respect of shares of BN ranking junior to the applicable series of Class A Preference Shares;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;except pursuant to any retraction privilege, mandatory redemption or purchase obligation attaching thereto, redeem, purchase or otherwise retire or make any return of capital in respect of any shares of any class or series ranking on a parity with the applicable series of Class A Preference Shares;

The sole holder of the Class B Shares of BN is a party to a trust agreement with Computershare Trust Company of Canada (formerly, Montreal Trust Corporation of Canada) (as trustee for the holders of the BN's Class A Shares) dated August 1, 1997. The trust agreement provides, among other things, that the holder has agreed not to sell any Class B Shares, directly or indirectly, pursuant to a takeover bid, unless a concurrent bid is made to all holders of Class A Shares. The concurrent offer must be: (i) for the same percentage of Class A Shares as the percentage of Class B Shares offered to be purchased from the holder; and (ii) the same in all material respects as the offer for the Class B Shares. Among other things, the trust agreement permits: (i) a sale by the sole holder of Class B Shares at a price per share not in excess of 115% of the market price of Class A Shares and as part of a transaction involving not more than five persons in the aggregate; and (ii) a direct or indirect sale of shares of the sole holder of the Class B Shares to a purchaser who is or will become a shareholder of that holder and will not hold more than 20% of that holder's outstanding shares as a result of the transaction.

<sup>6</sup>*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The required quorum for Class A Preference Shares, Series 2 and 4 is as prescribed by the by-laws of BN with respect to meetings of shareholders or as required by law. The required quorum for a meeting of holders of Class A Preference Shares, Series 6, 51 and 52 is as prescribed by the by-laws of BN with respect to meetings of shareholders, subject to a minimum requirement of at least two persons present entitled to vote thereat.

***Priority***

Subject to the prior rights of the holders of the Class A Preference Shares, the Class AA Preference Shares and any other senior-ranking shares outstanding from time to time, holders of Class A Shares and Class B Shares rank on a parity with each other with respect to the payment of dividends (if, as and when declared by the Board) and the return of capital on the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of BN or any other distribution of the assets of BN among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs.

***Voting Rights***

Except as set out below under "Election of Directors", each holder of Class A Shares and Class B Shares is entitled to notice of, and to attend and vote at, all meetings of BN's shareholders, other than meetings at which holders of only a specified class or series may vote, and shall be entitled to cast one vote per share.

***Election of Directors***

In the election of directors, holders of Class A Shares, together, in certain circumstances, with the holders of certain series of Class A Preference Shares, are entitled to elect one-half of the Board, provided that if the holders of Class A Preference Shares, Series 2 become entitled to elect two or three directors, as the case may be, the numbers of directors to be elected by holders of Class A Shares, together, in certain circumstances, with the holders of certain series of Class A Preference Shares, shall be reduced by the number of directors to be elected by holders of Class A Preference Shares, Series 2. Holders of Class B Shares are entitled to elect the other one-half of the Board.

**OTHER PROVISIONS REGARDING THE SHARE CAPITAL OF THE CORPORATION** 

BN's articles provide that each holder of shares of a class or series of shares of BN entitled to vote in an election of directors has the right to cast a number of votes equal to the number of votes attached to the shares held by the holder multiplied by the number of directors to be elected by the holder and the holders of shares of the classes or series of shares entitled to vote with the holder in the election of directors. A holder may cast all such votes in favor of one candidate or distribute such votes among its candidates in any manner the holder sees fit. Where a holder has voted for more than one candidate without specifying the distribution of votes among such candidates, the holder shall be deemed to have divided the holder's votes equally among the candidates for whom the holder voted.

***Internal Audit; Controls and Procedures; and Other***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;meet privately with the person responsible for the Corporation's internal audit function (the "Internal Auditor") as frequently as the Committee feels appropriate to fulfill its responsibilities, which will not be less frequently than annually, to discuss any items of concern;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;require the Internal Auditor to report directly to the Committee;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;discuss with the Internal Auditor, and management, the appropriate authority, role, responsibilities, scope, and services of the Internal Auditor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;review the mandate, budget, planned activities, performance, staffing and organizational structure of the Internal Auditor (which may be outsourced to a firm other than the Auditor) to confirm that it is independent of management, adequately qualified and has sufficient resources to effectively carry out its mandate. The Committee will discuss this mandate with the Internal Auditor and management, review the appointment and replacement of the Internal Auditor, review significant results of the Internal Auditor's activities, and the results of the Internal Auditor's quality assurance program. As part of this process, the Committee reviews and approves the governing charter of the internal audit function, the internal audit plan, budget and communication plan on an annual basis;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;review the controls and procedures that have been adopted to confirm that material financial information about the Corporation and its subsidiaries that is required to be disclosed under applicable law or stock exchange rules is disclosed, review the public disclosure of financial information extracted or derived from the Corporation's financial statements and periodically assess the adequacy of such controls and procedures;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;consider other matters of a financial nature as directed by the Board.

**LIMITATION OF AUDIT COMMITTEE ROLE** 

The Committee's function is one of oversight. The Corporation's management is responsible for preparing the Corporation's financial statements and for developing and maintaining systems of internal accounting and financial controls. The Auditor will assist the Committee and the Board in fulfilling their responsibilities for review of the financial statements and internal controls, and the Auditor will be responsible for the independent audit of the financial statements. The Committee expects the Auditor to call to its attention any accounting, auditing, internal accounting control, regulatory or other related matters that the Auditor believes warrant consideration or action. The Committee recognizes that the Corporation's finance team, the Internal Auditor and the Auditor have more knowledge and information about the Corporation's financial affairs than do the Committee's members. Accordingly, in carrying out its oversight responsibilities, the Committee does not provide any expert or special assurance as to the Corporation's financial statements or internal controls or any professional certification as to the Auditor's work.

**REPORTING** 

The Committee will regularly report to the Board on:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the Auditor's independence;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the performance of the Auditor and the Committee's recommendations regarding its reappointment or termination;

*C-4*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Brookfield Corporation *- 2025 Annual Information Form* 

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the performance of the Internal Auditor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the adequacy of the Corporation's internal controls and disclosure controls;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;its recommendations regarding the annual and interim financial statements of the Corporation and, to the extent applicable, any reconciliation of the Corporation's financial statements, including any issues with respect to the quality or integrity of the financial statements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;its review of any other public disclosure document including the annual report and the annual and interim management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the Corporation's compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, particularly those related to financial reporting; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;all other significant matters it has addressed and with respect to such other matters that are within its responsibilities.

In addition, if and when required or appropriate from time to time, the Committee may also report to another committee of the Board.

**COMPLAINTS PROCEDURE** 

The Corporation's Code of Business Conduct (the "Code") requires employees to report to their supervisor or internal legal counsel any suspected violations of the Code, including: (i) fraud or deliberate errors in the preparation, maintenance, evaluation, review or audit of any financial statement or financial record; (ii) deficiencies in, or noncompliance with, internal accounting controls; (iii) misrepresentations or false statements in any public disclosure documents; and (iv) any deviations from full, true and plain reporting of the Corporation's financial condition, as well as any other illegal or unethical behavior. Alternatively, employees may report such behavior anonymously through the Corporation's reporting hotline which is managed by an independent third party. The Corporation also maintains a Whistleblowing Policy which reinforces the Corporation's commitment to providing a mechanism for employees to report suspected wrongdoing without retaliation.

The Risk Management Committee has primary Board oversight responsibility for the Corporation's reporting hotline and is required to refer to the Audit Committee allegations of fraud, deliberate errors, or deviations from full, true, and plain disclosure related to financial reporting.

The Audit Committee will periodically review the procedure for the receipt, retention, treatment and follow-up of complaints received by the Corporation through the Corporation's reporting hotline or otherwise regarding accounting, internal controls, disclosure controls or auditing matters and the procedure for the confidential, anonymous submission of concerns by employees of the Corporation regarding such matters.

**CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND INFORMATION**

This Report contains "forward-looking information" within the meaning of Canadian provincial securities laws and "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, "safe harbor" provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and in any applicable Canadian securities regulations (collectively, "forward-looking statements"). Forward-looking statements include statements that are predictive in nature, depend upon or refer to future results, events or conditions, and include, but are not limited to, statements which reflect management's current estimates, beliefs and assumptions regarding the operations, business, financial condition, expected financial results, performance, prospects, opportunities, priorities, targets, goals, ongoing objectives, strategies, capital management and outlook of Brookfield, as well as the outlook for North American and international economies for the current fiscal year and subsequent periods, and which are in turn based on our experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors management believes are appropriate in the circumstances. The estimates, beliefs and assumptions of Brookfield Corporation are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive and other uncertainties and contingencies regarding future events and as such, are subject to change. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as "expect", "anticipate", "believe", "foresee", "could", "estimate", "goal", "intend", "plan", "seek", "strive", "will", "may" and "should" and similar expressions. In particular, the forward-looking statements contained in this Report include statements referring to future results, performance, achievements, prospects or opportunities of Brookfield Corporation or the Canadian, U.S. or international markets, the impact of current market or economic conditions on our businesses, the future state of the economy or the securities market, the anticipated allocation and deployment of our capital, our liquidity and ability to access and raise capital, our fundraising targets, our target growth objectives, our target carried interest, and the impact of acquisitions and dispositions on our business.

Although Brookfield Corporation believes that such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable estimates, beliefs and assumptions, actual results may differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated or implied by forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: (i) returns that are lower than target; (ii) the impact or unanticipated impact of general economic, political and market factors in the countries in which we do business; (iii) the behavior of financial markets, including fluctuations in interest and foreign exchange rates and heightened inflationary pressures; (iv) global equity and capital markets and the availability of equity and debt financing and refinancing within these markets; (v) strategic actions including acquisitions and dispositions; the ability to complete and effectively integrate acquisitions into existing operations and the ability to attain expected benefits; (vi) changes in accounting policies and methods used to report financial condition (including uncertainties associated with critical accounting assumptions and estimates); (vii) the ability to appropriately manage human capital; (viii) the effect of applying future accounting changes; (ix) business competition; (x) operational and reputational risks; (xi) technological change; (xii) changes in government regulation and legislation within the countries in which we operate; (xiii) governmental investigations and sanctions; (xiv) litigation; (xv) changes in tax laws; (xvi) ability to collect amounts owed; (xvii) catastrophic events, such as earthquakes, hurricanes and epidemics/pandemics; (xviii) the possible impact of international conflicts and other developments including terrorist acts and cyberterrorism; (xix) the introduction, withdrawal, success and timing of business initiatives and strategies; (xx) the failure of effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting and other risks; (xxi) health, safety and environmental risks; (xxii) the maintenance of adequate insurance coverage; (xxiii) the existence of information barriers between certain businesses within our asset management operations; (xxiv) risks specific to our business segments including asset management, wealth solutions, renewable power and transition, infrastructure, private equity, real estate and corporate activities; and (xxv) factors detailed from time to time in our documents filed with the securities regulators in Canada and the United States.

We caution that the foregoing list of important factors that may affect future results is not exhaustive and other factors could also adversely affect future results. Readers are urged to consider these risks, as well as other uncertainties, factors and assumptions carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, which are based only on information available to us as of the date of this Report and such other date specified herein. Except as required by law, Brookfield Corporation undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, that may be as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Past performance is not indicative nor a guarantee of future results. There can be no assurance that comparable results will be achieved in the future, that future investments will be similar to historic investments discussed herein, that targeted

26&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

returns, growth objectives, diversification or asset allocations will be met or that an investment strategy or investment objectives will be achieved (because of economic conditions, the availability of appropriate opportunities or otherwise).

Target returns and growth objectives set forth in this Report are for illustrative and informational purposes only and have been presented based on various assumptions made by Brookfield Corporation in relation to the investment strategies being pursued, any of which may prove to be incorrect. There can be no assurance that targeted returns or growth objectives will be achieved. Due to various risks, uncertainties and changes (including changes in economic, operational, political or other circumstances) beyond Brookfield Corporation's control, the actual performance of the business could differ materially from the target returns and growth objectives set forth herein. In addition, industry experts may disagree with the assumptions used in presenting the target returns and growth objectives. No assurance, representation or warranty is made by any person that the target returns or growth objectives will be achieved, and undue reliance should not be put on them.

Certain information contained herein is based on or derived from information provided by independent third-party sources. While Brookfield Corporation believes that such information is accurate as of the date it was produced and that the sources from which such information has been obtained are reliable, Brookfield Corporation makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, with respect to the accuracy, reasonableness or completeness of any of the information or the assumptions on which such information is based, contained herein, including but not limited to, information obtained from third parties.

**CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING THE USE OF NON-IFRS MEASURES**

We disclose a number of financial measures in this Report that are calculated and presented using methodologies other than in accordance with IFRS<sup>®</sup> Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). We use these measures in managing the business, including for performance measurement, capital allocation and valuation purposes and believe that providing these performance measures on a supplemental basis to our IFRS results is helpful to investors in assessing the overall performance of our businesses. These financial measures should not be considered as the sole measure of our performance and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, similar financial measures calculated in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. We caution readers that these non-IFRS financial measures or other financial metrics may differ from the calculations disclosed by other businesses and, as a result, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers and entities. Reconciliations of these non-IFRS financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, where applicable, are included within this Report. Please refer to our Glossary of Terms beginning on page [133](#i76e8aa92b6c84b2b84926f0e052a8335_268) for all non-IFRS measures.

Part 1

Our Business and Strategy

![2025 Banner Navigation_Overview.jpg](bn-20251231_g1.jpg)

OVERVIEW

We are a leading global investment firm focused on building long-term wealth for institutions and individuals around the world. We have one of the largest pools of discretionary capital globally, which is deployed across our three core businesses—Asset Management, Wealth Solutions, and our Operating Businesses. Through our core businesses, we invest in real assets that form the backbone of the global economy to deliver strong risk-adjusted returns to our stakeholders. Over the long term, we are focused on delivering 15%+ annualized returns to shareholders.

With a 100+ year heritage as an owner and operator of real assets, we have a proven track record of deploying capital to build market leading businesses that generate attractive long-term total returns. The cash flows generated from our businesses are generally underpinned by stable, inflation-linked, largely contracted, and growing revenue streams with high cash margins. At the center of our success is the Brookfield Ecosystem, which is based on the fundamental principle that each group within Brookfield benefits from being part of the broader organization. We leverage our global presence, the synergies of our businesses and large-scale, flexible capital to achieve strong returns across market cycles.

As a proven value investor, we remain focused on allocating the distributions we receive from our businesses to enhance value for our shareholders. We will continue to deploy the substantial free cash flows we receive towards supporting the growth of our three businesses, new strategic opportunities, and share buybacks. Our conservatively managed balance sheet, extensive operational experience, and global sourcing networks allow us to consistently access unique opportunities.

Our scale, stability, and diversification create a differentiated business model, positioning us well as a partner of choice for the global buildout of infrastructure, the transition to a sustainable energy future, and take-private opportunities. We expect the flexibility of our capital and reputation as a good partner to create a significant proprietary pipeline of opportunities.

Sound sustainability principles are integral to building resilient businesses and creating long term value for our investors and other stakeholders. As a result, we embed these principles into all our activities—including our investment process—and conduct our business in a sustainable and ethical manner. An emphasis on diversity and inclusion reinforces our culture of collaboration. It strengthens our ability to develop our people and maintain an engaged workforce focused on serving as a trusted partner and first-choice provider of investment solutions.

✔&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Investment Focus**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We invest in a global and diverse portfolio of high-quality assets and businesses that are predominantly long-term or perpetual in nature and have the following attributes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• stable, largely contracted or inflation-linked, and growing revenues

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ability to drive outsized financial returns through operational excellence

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• highly cash-generative

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• high barriers to entry with a market leading position

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• offer continuous deployment opportunities

------

✔&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Focused Investment Strategies**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We invest where we can bring our competitive advantages to bear, leveraging our global presence, deep operating expertise, and large-scale, flexible capital to achieve strong returns across market cycles.

✔&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Proven Capital Allocator**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We are a value investor with a track record of delivering 15%+ annualized returns to shareholders for over 30 years, supported by our deep investment and operational expertise.

✔&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Disciplined Financing Approach**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We take a conservative approach to the use of leverage, ensuring that we can preserve capital across business cycles. Underlying investments are typically funded at investment-grade levels on a standalone and non-recourse basis, providing us with a stable capitalization. Only 6% of the total leverage<sup>1</sup> reported in our consolidated financial statements has recourse to the Corporation.

✔&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Sustainability**

We are committed to ensuring that the businesses we invest in are set up for long-term success, and we seek to have a positive impact on the environment and the communities in which we operate.

We calculate the value of Brookfield Corporation as the capital we have in our three core businesses—Asset Management, Wealth Solutions, and Operating Businesses. Our financial returns are represented by capital appreciation and distributions from our businesses. The primary performance measure that we use to evaluate the performance of our business is distributable earnings ("DE")<sup>1</sup>.

Our Asset Management business is a leading global alternative asset manager, with over $1 trillion of assets under management ("AUM")<sup>1</sup> as at December 31, 2025 across renewable power and transition, infrastructure private equity, real estate and credit. The business invests client capital for the long term with a focus on real assets and essential service businesses that form the backbone of the global economy. The business draws on our heritage as an owner and operator to invest for value and generate strong returns for clients, across economic cycles. Our clients include some of the world's largest and most sophisticated institutional investors, including sovereign wealth funds, pension plans, endowments, foundations, financial institutions, insurance companies, and individual investors.

Within each investment vertical, our business manages capital in a variety of products that broadly fall into one of three categories: i) long-term private funds, ii) permanent capital vehicles and perpetual strategies and iii) liquid strategies<sup>1</sup>. Products within these three strategies have similar base management fee<sup>1</sup> and carried interest<sup>1</sup> or performance fee<sup>1</sup> arrangements.

Our capital in this business is held via our 73% ownership interest in Brookfield Asset Management Ltd. ("BAM")<sup>1,2,3</sup> for which we receive quarterly distributions, our carried interest, as well as our direct investments into and alongside private funds managed by BAM. Our direct investments are primarily comprised of capital invested in flagship real estate private funds which own high-quality assets and portfolios with operational upside ("LP Investments") across logistics, multifamily, hospitality, office, retail, triple net lease, self-storage, student housing and the manufactured housing sectors. We also invest directly in certain private equity and credit funds.

WEALTH SOLUTIONS

Our **Wealth Solutions business**, via our equity accounted investment in Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. ("BWS")<sup>1</sup>, is an investment-led insurance organization focused on securing the financial futures of individuals and institutions through a range of retirement services, wealth protection products and tailored capital solutions.

<sup>1</sup> See definition in Glossary of Terms beginning on page 133.

<sup>2</sup> In February 2025, the Corporation exchanged its interest in Brookfield Asset Management ULC for an interest in Brookfield Asset Management Ltd. on a one-for-one basis. Following this transaction, the Corporation holds a 73% ownership interest in BAM, which in turn holds 100% of our Asset Management business.

<sup>3</sup> In June 2025, we transferred a 4% direct interest in BAM to our Wealth Solutions business. On a combined basis with our Wealth Solutions business, we hold a 73% ownership interest in BAM, of which 69% is held directly and 4% is held through BWS.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;29

------

As at December 31, 2025, total insurance assets within our Wealth Solutions business grew to $143 billion as retail and institutional annuity sales totaled $20 billion for the year, with 85% of annuities written during the year having a term of five years or longer. We ended the year with $12.7 billion of IFRS capital, which earns $1.9 billion of annualized cash flows, supporting a 15% return on equity.

BAM acts as the investment manager of most of the assets of BWS.

OPERATING BUSINESSES

We have approximately $34 billion of IFRS capital in our Operating Businesses as a result of our history as an owner and operator of real assets. This capital generates attractive financial returns and provides important financial stability and flexibility to the Corporation.

*Renewable Power and Transition, Infrastructure, and Private Equity*

Our investments in Renewable Power and Transition, Infrastructure, and Private Equity serve as publicly listed permanent capital vehicles that also act as our primary vehicles for making commitments to the private funds of our Asset Management business, providing each with a strong pipeline for growth. Each of these businesses share key characteristics—highly diversified by sector and geography, generating stable and often inflation-linked revenue streams, high cash margins, market leading positions, high barriers to entry and opportunities to invest additional capital to enhance returns—all of which enable us to generate very attractive risk-adjusted returns on our capital.

Our **Renewable Power and Transition business** owns a diverse portfolio of high-quality assets across multiple continents and technologies including hydroelectric, wind, utility-scale solar, and distributed energy and sustainable solutions investments. Our capital in this business is primarily held via our 45% ownership interest in Brookfield Renewable Partners ("BEP")<sup>1</sup> for which we receive quarterly distributions. We also enter into energy contracts, which are our contractual arrangements with BEP to purchase power generated by certain North American hydro assets at a fixed price that is then resold on a contracted or uncontracted basis.

Our **Infrastructure business** is one of the world's largest infrastructure investors, which owns and operates assets across the utilities, transport, midstream and data sectors. Our capital in this business is held via our 26% ownership interest in Brookfield Infrastructure Partners ("BIP")<sup>1</sup> for which we receive quarterly distributions.

Our **Private Equity** business is a leading global owner and operator of businesses that provide essential products and services in the business services and industrials sectors. On a combined basis with our Wealth Solutions business, we hold approximately 68% ownership interest in Brookfield Business Partners ("BBU")<sup>1</sup>, 43% being directly held by the Corporation, and for which we receive quarterly distributions. BBU has a policy of paying a modest distribution and reinvesting the majority of its funds from operations ("FFO")<sup>1</sup> back into its businesses to further enhance value.

*Real Estate*

Our **Real Estate** business is a global and diversified portfolio of premier office, dominant retail, as well as multi and single family residential properties

Our capital in this business is held via our 100% ownership stake in Brookfield Property Group ("BPG")<sup>1</sup>, which today consists of an irreplaceable portfolio of premier properties in global gateway cities that we expect to own long-term ("super core"); high-quality assets in central locations with growing NOI ("core plus"); and select portfolios undergoing repositioning to enhance value, which we expect to monetize over the shorter term ("value add" and "opportunistic"). In addition, we operate a leading land development and homebuilding platform in North America ("North American Residential").

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES

At the center of our success is the Brookfield Ecosystem, which is based on the fundamental principle that each group within Brookfield benefits from being part of the broader organization. We have three distinct competitive advantages that enable us to consistently identify and acquire high-quality assets and create significant value in the assets that we own and operate. We leverage our global presence, the synergies of our businesses and large-scale, flexible capital to achieve strong returns across market cycles.

SIGNIFICANT & PERPETUAL CAPITAL BASE

We have invested capital<sup>1</sup> of over $180 billion and a stable and growing annual free cash flow of $6.0 billion as at December 31, 2025. The access to significant resources has enabled us to (1) pursue highly accretive growth, (2) accelerate the growth of our Asset Management business, and (3) build and grow new businesses.

![2025_Transactions.jpg](bn-20251231_g3.jpg)

GLOBAL REACH

We operate in more than 50 countries on five continents around the world.

We have incubated, built, and launched market leading businesses over the past 30 years, each of which has reached global scale and enables the Corporation to pursue acquisition or growth of the next market leader. Our existing relationships and reputation as a superior partner are true differentiators and have increasingly positioned us as the capital solutions provider of choice for major global brands. We expect to leverage our resources and reputation to continue to seek opportunities that will provide total returns of over 15%+ a year over the long-term.

SYNERGIES ACROSS STRATEGIES

We believe that separation of business activities achieves efficient capital structures and focused growth opportunities and collaboration achieves higher returns and better outcomes for all of our market leading businesses. The Corporation and its market leading businesses are strategically aligned for all of them to perform and deliver strong results for stakeholders.

The collaboration between the 5,800+<sup>2</sup> investment and asset management professionals and employees in our Asset Management business, and approximately 250,000 operating employees located in over 50 countries on five continents, provides Brookfield with deep investment and operating expertise across several sectors and industries, global reach and unique access to proprietary investment opportunities. The complementary skill sets of our people position us to manage operational risk, achieve operating efficiencies and enhance returns.

<sup>1</sup> See definition in Glossary of Terms beginning on page 133.

<sup>2</sup> Includes Oaktree employees that will become Brookfield employees following Brookfield's acquisition of the approximately 26% of Oaktree that it does not already own and approximately 1,500 fully-dedicated Brookfield operating employees that are integral to the business, including individuals focused on our core investment strategies and those undertaking various corporate activities.

INVESTMENT CYCLE

---

| |
|:---|
| *Identify and Invest in High-Quality Assets*<br>We follow a value-based approach to investing and allocating capital. We believe that our disciplined approach, global reach and our operating expertise enable us to identify a wide range of potential opportunities, and allow us to invest at attractive valuations and generate superior risk-adjusted returns. We also leverage our considerable expertise in executing recapitalizations, operational turnarounds and large development and capital projects, providing additional opportunities to deploy capital.  |
| *Secure Long-Term Financing*<br>We finance our operations predominantly on a long-term, investment-grade basis, and most of our capital consists of equity and standalone asset-by-asset financing with minimal recourse to other parts of the organization. We utilize relatively modest levels of corporate debt to provide operational flexibility and optimize returns. This provides us with considerable stability, improves our ability to withstand financial downturns and enables our management teams to focus on operations and other growth initiatives. |
| *Enhance Value and Cash Flows Through Operating Expertise*<br>Our strong, time-tested operating capabilities enable us to increase the value of the assets within our businesses and the cash flows they produce, and they help to protect capital in adverse conditions. Our operating expertise, development capabilities and effective financing can help ensure that an investment's full value creation potential is realized, which we believe is one of our most important competitive advantages. |
| *Realize Capital from Asset Sales or Refinancings*<br>We actively monitor opportunities to sell or refinance assets to generate proceeds; in the limited life funds of our Asset Management business that capital is returned to investors, and in the case of perpetual funds, we then redeploy the capital to enhance returns. In many cases, returning capital from private funds completes the investment process, locks in investor returns and gives rise to performance income. |
| *Our Operating Cycle Leads to Value Creation* <br>We create value from earning robust returns on our investments that compound over time and grow the fee-bearing capital of our Asset Management business. By generating value for our investors and shareholders, we increase fees and carried interest received in our Asset Management business, and grow cash flows that compound value in our invested capital.  |

32&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

![2025 Banner Navigation_Liquidity.jpg](bn-20251231_g6.jpg)

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Corporation has $5.9 billion of core liquidity<sup>1</sup>, inclusive of our proportionate share of the cash in our Asset Management business, and $188 billion of deployable capital<sup>1</sup> on a group basis as at December 31, 2025. We manage our liquidity and capitalization on a group-wide basis, which we organize into three principal tiers:

i) The Corporation:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Strong levels of liquidity are maintained to support growth and ongoing operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Capitalization consists of a large common equity base, supplemented with perpetual preferred shares, long-dated corporate bonds and, from time to time, draws on our corporate credit facilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Certain guarantees are or may be provided on the financial obligations of perpetual affiliates and managed funds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• High levels of cash flows are available after payment of common and preferred share dividends.

ii)Our three core businesses, including BAM, BWS, and our Operating Businesses (BEP, BIP, BBU and BPG)<sup>1</sup>:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Strong levels of liquidity are maintained at each of our core businesses to support their growth and ongoing operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Each business is intended to be self-funding with stable capitalization through market cycles.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Financial obligations within our core businesses have no recourse to the Corporation.

iii)Investment-level, including underlying investments within our core businesses and our directly held assets:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Each underlying investment is typically funded on a standalone basis using asset-level financing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Fund-level borrowings within our Asset Management business are generally limited to subscription facilities backed by the capital commitments to the fund.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Financial obligations within our assets and funds have no recourse to the Corporation.

APPROACH TO CAPITALIZATION

We maintain a prudent level of long-dated capitalization in the form of common equity, perpetual preferred shares and corporate bonds, which provides a very stable capital structure. In addition, we maintain appropriate levels of liquidity throughout the organization to fund operating, development and investment activities as well as unforeseen requirements.

A key element of our capital strategy is to maintain significant liquidity at the corporate level, primarily in the form of cash, financial assets and undrawn credit lines.

Within BAM, BWS, and our Operating Businesses, we strive to:

• Ensure our businesses can finance their operations on a standalone basis without recourse to or reliance on the Corporation.

• Structure borrowings and other financial obligations associated with assets or portfolio companies to provide a stable capitalization at levels that are attractive to investors, are sustainable on a long-term basis and can withstand economic cycles.

• Ensure the vast majority of this debt is at investment-grade levels; however, periodically, we may borrow at sub-investment grade levels in certain parts of our business where the borrowings are carefully structured and monitored.

<sup>1</sup> See definition in Glossary of Terms beginning on page 133.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;33

------

• Provide recourse only to the specific businesses or assets being financed, without cross-collateralization or parental guarantees.

• Match the duration of our debt to the underlying leases or contracts and match the currency of our debt to that of the assets such that our remaining exposure is on the net equity of the investment.

As at December 31, 2025, only $14 billion of long-term debt has recourse to the Corporation. The remaining debt on our consolidated balance sheet is held within managed entities and has no recourse to the Corporation but is consolidated under IFRS Accounting Standards.

LIQUIDITY

• The Corporation has very few non-discretionary capital requirements. We maintain significant liquidity ($5.9 billion in the form of corporate cash and financial assets and undrawn credit facilities) at the corporate level to further enable growth across business cycles. This does not include our ability to issue debt or monetize investments to further enhance our liquidity.

• On a group basis, as at December 31, 2025, we had record deployable capital of $188 billion, which included corporate liquidity, perpetual affiliate liquidity, and uncalled private fund commitments. Uncalled private fund commitments represent third-party commitments available for drawdown in private funds managed by BAM.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

We utilize a metric we call the Corporation's Capital to manage the business in a number of ways, including operating performance, value creation, credit metrics and capital efficiency. The performance of the Corporation's Capital is closely tracked and monitored by the company's key management personnel and evaluated against management's objectives. The primary goal of the company is to earn a 15%+ return compounded over the long term while always maintaining significant liquidity to support ongoing operations.

The Corporation's Capital consists of the capital invested in its asset management activities, including investments in entities that it manages, its corporate investments that are held outside of managed entities and its net working capital, and is computed as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| AS AT DEC. 31<br>(MILLIONS) | **2025** | 2024 |
| Cash and cash equivalents | $**461** | $820 |

1. These are perpetual subordinated notes issued in November 2020 by a wholly owned subsidiary of Brookfield, included within non-controlling interest.

We maintain a prudent level of capitalization at the Corporation with 79% of our book capitalization in the form of common and preferred equity. Consistent with our conservative approach, our corporate borrowings represent only 21% of our corporate book capitalization and equate to just 6% of our consolidated debt.

The remaining 94% of our consolidated debt is non-recourse and is held within managed entities and has virtually no cross-collateralization or parental guarantees by the Corporation.

The following table presents our total capitalization on a corporate and consolidated basis. Total capitalization also includes amounts payable under long-term incentive plans, deferred tax liabilities and other working capital balances:

Total consolidated debt to capitalization ratio of 50% increased from the prior year as a result of higher non-recourse borrowings related to acquisitions during the year.

CASH FLOW GENERATION FROM OUR CAPITAL

Our Corporation's Capital generates significant, recurring cash flows at the corporate level, which may be used for (i) returning cash to shareholders; or (ii) reinvestment into the business. These cash flows are underpinned by:

• Distributions from our Asset Management business, which are supported by fee-related earnings<sup>1</sup> from predominantly long-term or perpetual contractual agreements.

• Wealth Solutions operating earnings, which are backed by attractive returns earned on a balanced investment portfolio of assets that are matched to predictable, long-duration insurance liabilities.

• Distributions from Operating Businesses which are stable and backed by high-quality cash-generating real assets and essential service businesses.

These cash flows are supplemented with carried interest and disposition gains on principal investments as we monetize mature investments and return capital to our investors.

RISK MANAGEMENT

![2025 Risk Management.jpg](bn-20251231_g8.jpg)

![2025_Risk_Methodology.jpg](bn-20251231_g9.jpg)

OUR APPROACH

Managing risk is an integral and critical part of our business. We have a well-established, proactive and disciplined risk management approach that is based on clear operating methods and a strong risk management culture. We ensure that we have the necessary capacity and resilience to respond to changing environments by evaluating both current and emerging risks. A robust risk management framework and methodology that is designed to enable comprehensive and consistent management of risk across the organization has been implemented. We use a thorough and integrated risk assessment process to identify and evaluate risk areas across the business, including human capital, climate change, cybersecurity, liquidity, disruption, regulatory compliance and other strategic, financial, and operational risks. Management and mitigation approaches are tailored to the specific risk areas and executed by business and functional groups for their businesses and areas of responsibility, with appropriate coordination and oversight through centralized monitoring and reporting processes.

FOCUS ON RISK CULTURE

A strong risk culture is the cornerstone of our risk management program: one that promotes measured and appropriate risk-taking, addresses current and emerging risks, and ensures employees conduct business with a long-term perspective and in a sustainable and ethical manner. This culture is reinforced by the strong commitment and leadership of our senior executives and supported by the policies and practices we have implemented, including our compensation approach.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;37

------

CENTRALIZED OVERSIGHT AND COORDINATION

We have implemented strong governance practices to monitor and oversee our risk management program. Management committees bring together required expertise to manage key risk areas, ensuring appropriate application and coordination of risk management practices across our business and functional groups, and include the following:

• **Risk Management Steering Committee** – supports the overall risk management program, and coordinates risk assessment and mitigation on an enterprise-wide basis

• **Investment Committees** – the respective investment committee oversees the investment process and reviews and approves investment transactions of that business group

• **Conflicts Committee** – resolves potential conflict situations related to investment processes and other corporate transactions

• **Financial Risk Oversight Committee** – reviews and monitors financial exposures

• **Sustainability Leadership** – oversees, coordinates and implements activities related to sustainability, including reviewing current and future initiatives, and monitoring sector and market trends

• **Safety Leadership Committee** – promotes strong safety culture, monitors safety trends, and sponsors strategic initiatives related to health, safety, security and environmental matters

• **Net Zero Steering Committee** – develops decarbonization targets, operationalizes decarbonization approaches and shares best practices across the organization

• **Cyber Leadership Committee** – facilitates knowledge sharing, including identification and mitigation of emerging threats, and enhances collaboration to help ensure efficient use of resources and maintenance of effective cybersecurity programs across business groups

• **Disclosure Committee** – oversees the public disclosure of material information

The Board of Directors of Brookfield Corporation (the "Board") oversees risk management with a focus on more significant risks, and leverages management's monitoring processes. The Board has delegated responsibility for oversight of specific risks to the following board committees:

• **Risk Management Committee** – oversees the management of Brookfield's significant financial and non-financial risk exposures, including review of risk assessment and risk management practices, and confirms that the company has an appropriate risk-taking philosophy and suitable risk capacity

• **Audit Committee** – oversees the management of risks related to Brookfield's financial reporting systems and procedures, as well as for associated internal and external audit processes

• **Management Resources and Compensation Committee** – oversees risks related to Brookfield's management resource planning, including succession planning, executive compensation and senior executives' performance

• **Governance and Nominating Committee** – oversees risks related to Brookfield's governance structure, including the effectiveness of board and committee activities, potential conflicts of interest, and governance of sustainability initiatives

SHARED EXECUTION

Given the diversified and decentralized nature of our operations, we seek to ensure that risk is managed as close to its source as possible and by management teams that have the most knowledge and expertise in the specific business or risk area. As such, business specific risks—such as health and safety, environmental and other operational risks—are generally managed at the operating business level, as the risks vary based on the nature of each business. At the same time, we monitor key risks organization-wide to ensure adequacy of risk management, adherence to applicable Brookfield policies, and sharing of best practices.

For risks that are more pervasive and correlated in their impact across the organization—such as liquidity, foreign exchange and interest rates or where we can bring specialized knowledge—we utilize a coordinated approach that is centralized amongst our corporate and business groups. Management of strategic, reputational and regulatory and compliance risks are similarly coordinated to ensure consistent focus and implementation across the organization.

SUSTAINABILITY

SUSTAINABILITY AT BROOKFIELD

We believe that value creation and sustainable business practices are complementary goals. Drawing on more than 100 years of experience as an owner and operator, we invest for value and seek to generate strong risk-adjusted returns for our clients across economic cycles. Our investment strategy has remained consistent throughout our history—we focus on utilizing our operational expertise to enhance long-term value through strategic and operational improvements within our operating businesses and portfolio companies.

Our Sustainability Policy codifies our longstanding strategy of integrating sustainability considerations into decision-making. It is based on the following guiding principles: mitigating the impact of our operations on the environment; striving to promote the well-being and safety of our workforce; upholding strong governance practices and acting as good corporate citizens.

For further information, we publish on our website an annual sustainability report, which provides details about our approach to integrating sustainability across our business. Our disclosures consider the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards, and are aligned with the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations.

*Sustainability Organization and Governance*

Our Board oversees our business, including reviewing major strategic initiatives and receiving progress reports on the firm's sustainability initiatives throughout the year.

Our approach to sustainability has sponsorship and oversight from the CEOs and sustainability leads of each business group, supported by senior executives. Functional leaders (i.e., Technology Services and Human Resources) are responsible for developing, implementing and monitoring relevant sustainability factors within their functional area.

*Integrating Sustainability into Our Investment Process*

As part of our due diligence over investments where we have control or significant influence, we seek to assess sustainability-related opportunities and risks and factor them into the overall investment decision. This includes leveraging industry guidance to identify sustainability factors most likely to materially impact the financial condition or operating performance of companies in a given sector.

Our Sustainability Due Diligence Protocol provides guidance to investment teams on assessing bribery and corruption, cybersecurity, health and safety, human rights, modern slavery and climate-related risks, among other factors. Where warranted, we perform deeper due diligence, working with internal and third-party experts, as appropriate.

Investments, other than de minimis or follow on investments, must be approved by the applicable Investment Committee. Investment teams present the Investment Committee with the merits of each transaction, its material risks, mitigants and significant opportunities for improvement, including sustainability aspects and their potential implications for investment returns. As part of each acquisition, investment teams develop a customized integration plan that encompasses, among other items, material sustainability-related matters for evaluation or implementation.

Consistent with our management approach, it is the responsibility of management teams within each portfolio company to manage sustainability opportunities and risks through the investment's life cycle, supported by our relevant investment teams. Management teams regularly report to their respective boards of directors from both financial and operating perspectives, including key performance indicators that incorporate material sustainability factors.

When preparing an asset for divestiture, we seek to outline potential value creation deriving from several different factors, including relevant sustainability considerations.

*Human Capital Development*

Our people are our most important asset. The core values of collaboration, entrepreneurship and discipline underpin our firmwide culture. We invest in our people and prepare them for future leadership. Our firmwide culture, from our dealings with clients to the interactions among employees and executives, is defined by mutual respect, teamwork and passion, and revolves around our core values:

• Collaboration: Leadership works side by side with colleagues throughout the organization and is committed to achieving shared success. One of the key attributes that we screen carefully for in new hires is their aptitude to collaborate with others. The firm wants people to share information across groups and take an interest in all the businesses, not just the one they happen to work for at any particular point in time. We do not hire people just for a specific job; we hire for the potential of all the future positions they might hold and that will contribute to the broader success of the firm.

• Entrepreneurship: Our flat organization is results-oriented—responsibility is earned based on initiative and hard work, rather than job title—and decisions are made close to the action. This principle is not uncommon, but we have encouraged our entrepreneurial spirit throughout our growth. We look for employees who have a passion not only for what they do but also for what the firm does. The shared values of ownership extend beyond helping the company succeed or generate more revenue.

Part 2

Review of Consolidated Financial Results

The following section contains a discussion and analysis of line items presented within our consolidated financial statements. The financial data in this section has been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). Starting on page [54](#i76e8aa92b6c84b2b84926f0e052a8335_127), we provide an overview of our fair value accounting process and why we believe it provides useful information for investors about our performance. We also provide an overview of our application of the control-based model under IFRS Accounting Standards used to determine whether or not an investment should be consolidated.

OVERVIEW

During 2025, net income was supported by strong fundraising momentum and capital deployment in our Asset Management business, strong investment performance in our Wealth Solutions business, and the stable and resilient cash flows of our Operating Businesses.

Net income was $3.2 billion in the current year, with $1.3 billion attributable to common shareholders ($0.49 per share) and $1.9 billion attributable to non-controlling interests.

The $1.4 billion increase in net income over the prior year was primarily attributable to:

• same-store<sup>1</sup> growth, primarily from inflation-linked revenues and organic growth initiatives across our Infrastructure and Renewable Power and Transition segments;

• an increase in other income and gains of $1.1 billion primarily due to disposition gains within our Infrastructure segment; and

• an increase in fair value changes of $998 million, primarily driven by mark-to-market increases on certain financial assets as well as the absence of an impairment of goodwill recognized within our Private Equity segment in the prior year; partially offset by

• the absence of contributions from recent dispositions, net of acquisitions, over the past year, mostly in our Real Estate, Infrastructure, and Renewable Power and Transition segments;

• an increase in interest expense of $485 million due to incremental borrowings associated with acquisitions and asset-level upfinancings to support ongoing capital projects across our businesses, partially offset by dispositions, net of acquisitions and the impact of lower rates on variable rate debt obligations and debt repayments;

• a decrease in equity accounted income of $172 million primarily due to mark-to-market changes on insurance reserves within our Wealth Solutions business and lower fair value gains on certain investment properties within our Infrastructure segment;

• an increase in income tax expense of $153 million primarily due to higher taxable income as a result of organic growth and transaction activity during the year, partially offset by the increase in deferred tax recoveries primarily attributable to tax credit monetization at our Renewable Power and Transition segment.

Our consolidated balance sheet increased as a result of net assets acquired. Further increases primarily relate to the favourable impact of foreign currency translation across our segments. This was partially offset by the impacts of depreciation and amortization as well as the deconsolidation of Brookfield India Real Estate Trust ("India REIT") within our LP Investments included in our Asset Management segment, which is now recognized within our equity accounted investments.

1. Direct costs include $10.4 billion of depreciation and amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 (2024 – $9.7 billion; 2023 – $9.1 billion).

2025 vs. 2024

Revenues for the year were $75.1 billion, a decrease of $10.9 billion or 13% compared to 2024, primarily driven by increased contributions from our Infrastructure segment due to organic growth from inflation indexation, recent acquisitions, and rate base increases, and from our Renewable Power and Transition segment due to recent acquisitions and commissioning of recent development projects. These were more than offset by dispositions within our Private Equity segment completed in the third quarter of 2024.

A discussion of the impact on revenues and net income from recent acquisitions and dispositions can be found on page [44](#i76e8aa92b6c84b2b84926f0e052a8335_97).

Direct costs decreased by $11.0 billion or 16%, primarily due to the impact of dispositions within our Private Equity segment, completed in the third quarter of 2024. These were partially offset by increased costs due to inflation and organic growth within our Infrastructure segment, lower tax benefits due to the absence of the recognition of accumulated benefits in the prior year within our Private Equity segment, and higher direct costs related to recent acquisitions across our businesses.

Other income and gains of $2.4 billion primarily relate to the gains on the sale of our Australian container terminals operator, our U.K. port operation, our Mexican natural gas transmission operation, and our North American natural gas operations, all within our Infrastructure segment. Current period results also include gains on the sale of our Indian non-bank financial services home financing operation and our offshore oil services' shuttle tanker operation, both within our Private Equity segment. Other income and gains in 2024 are primarily attributable to gains on the sale of our road fuels operation and the deconsolidation of our payment processing services operation within our Private Equity segment.

Equity accounted income decreased by $172 million primarily due to to mark-to-market changes on insurance reserves within our Wealth Solutions business and the lower fair value gains on certain investment properties within our Infrastructure segment.

42&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

Interest expense of $17.1 billion, of which $16.4 billion relates to non-recourse financing, increased by $485 million compared to 2024 due to incremental borrowings associated with acquisitions, net of dispositions, and asset-level upfinancings to support ongoing capital projects across our businesses, partially offset by the impact of lower rates on variable rate debt obligations and debt repayments.

We recorded fair value changes of $1.5 billion compared to $2.5 billion in the prior year. The increase of $998 million is primarily driven by mark-to-market increases on certain financial assets as well as the absence of goodwill impairment recognized in the prior year within our Private Equity segment.

Refer to pages [45](#i76e8aa92b6c84b2b84926f0e052a8335_103) - 46 for a discussion on fair value changes.

We recorded an income tax expense of $1.1 billion for the year compared to $1.0 billion in the prior year mainly due to higher taxable income as a result of organic growth and transaction activity. This is partially offset by the increase in deferred tax recoveries primarily attributable to tax credit monetization at our Renewable Power and Transition segment.

2024 vs. 2023

Revenues decreased by $9.9 billion in 2024 primarily due to increased contributions from our Infrastructure segment due to organic growth as a result of inflation indexation and rate base increases, and from our Renewable Power and Transition segment due to commissioning of recent development projects. Increased contributions are also attributable to strong same-store results from our Private Equity segment due to increased demand for higher margin advanced batteries at our advanced energy storage operation. These increases were more than offset by the absence of contributions from recent net dispositions, primarily due to the sale of our road fuels operation in the third quarter of 2024 and the deconsolidation of our nuclear technology services operation in the fourth quarter of 2023, both within our Private Equity segment.

Direct costs decreased by $13.5 billion in 2024 primarily due to the impact of the sale of our road fuels operation in the third quarter of 2024 and the deconsolidation of our nuclear technology services operation in the fourth quarter of 2023, as well as lower direct costs at our advanced energy storage operation due to the recognition of tax benefits, all within our Private Equity segment. These decreases were partially offset by increased costs due to inflation and organic growth within our Infrastructure segment and higher direct costs related to recent acquisitions primarily within our Renewable Power and Transition and Infrastructure segments.

Other income and gains of $1.2 billion in 2024 primarily relate to the gains on the sale of our road fuels operation and the deconsolidation of our payment processing services operation, both within our Private Equity segment. The other income and gains in 2023 is primarily attributable to the gains on the deconsolidation of our nuclear technology services operation within our Private Equity segment and our New Zealand data distribution business within our Infrastructure segment.

Equity accounted income increased by $661 million primarily due to contributions from the acquisition of AEL in our Wealth Solutions business, as well as our share of increases in the value of certain investment properties within our Real Estate and Infrastructure segments, partially offset by mark-to-market changes on insurance reserves within our Wealth Solutions business.

Interest expense of $16.6 billion in 2024 of which $15.9 billion relates to non-recourse financing, increased by $1.1 billion compared to 2023 due to incremental borrowings associated with acquisitions, net of dispositions, and refinancings primarily within our Infrastructure and Renewable Power and Transition segments, partially offset by the impact of lower interest rates on floating rate debt.

We recorded fair value decreases of $2.5 billion in 2024 compared to $1.4 billion in the prior year. The decrease is primarily due to valuation increases at certain U.S retail assets in our core portfolio within our Real Estate segment as a result of updated leasing assumptions and the settlement of a legacy pre-acquisition litigation at our dealer software and technology services operation, as well as impairment of goodwill at our healthcare services operation and asset impairment at our natural gas production operation, all within our Private Equity segment. Fair value decreases were also attributable to increased debt amortization costs at our global intermodal container logistics operation within our Infrastructure segment.

Income tax expense decreased by $29 million in 2024, mainly due to lower taxable income in 2024 in our Private Equity segment and the realization of tax benefits within our Renewable Power and Transition segment; partially offset by lower deferred tax recoveries due to higher valuation gains in our real estate portfolio compared to the prior year.

ACQUISITIONS

Recent acquisitions contributed incremental revenues of $4.6 billion and net income of $256 million in the current *year.*

*Renewable Power and Transition*

Within our Renewable Power and Transition segment, recent acquisitions contributed to incremental revenues of $1.2 billion and net income of $177 million. These contributions were primarily due to the acquisitions of a leading global renewables developer in France and an offshore wind portfolio in the U.K., both acquired in the fourth quarter of 2024.

*Infrastructure*

Recent acquisitions contributed incremental revenues of $2.1 billion and net income of $1 million. These contributions were primarily from our acquisitions of a U.S. pipeline system and a U.S. fiber network, both in the third quarter of 2025, and an Indian telecom tower operation in the third quarter of 2024.

*Private Equity*

Within our Private Equity segment, recent acquisitions contributed incremental revenues of $991 million and decreased net income by $60 million primarily due to amortization of intangible assets, acquisition-related transaction and restructuring costs. These contributions were primarily due to the acquisitions of an electric heat tracing systems manufacturer and a specialty consumables and equipment manufacturer in the first half of 2025.

*Real Estate and Other*

Recent acquisitions contributed incremental revenues of $407 million and net income of $138 million, primarily from the acquisitions of student housing and multifamily portfolios in the U.S. in the fourth quarter of 2024, and a European hospitality asset in the third quarter of 2025.

DISPOSITIONS

Recent asset sales reduced revenues and net income by $15.5 billion and $276 million in the year, respectively. The transactions that most significantly impacted our results were the disposition of our road fuels operation in the third quarter of 2024 and the deconsolidation of our healthcare services operation in the second quarter of 2025, both within our Private Equity segment, as well as sales of certain senior living, triple net lease, and student housing portfolios within our Real Estate LP investments throughout the year.

INVESTMENT PROPERTIES

Investment properties are recorded at fair value with changes recorded in net income. Investment properties consist of an irreplaceable collection of premier properties in global gateway cities that we expect to own long-term ("super core"); high-quality assets in central locations with growing NOI ("core plus"); and select portfolios undergoing repositioning to enhance value, which we expect to monetize over the shorter term ("value add" and "opportunistic"). In addition, we also have interests in flagship real estate private funds that are managed by BAM with long-term track records of earning strong returns.

The following table disaggregates investment property fair value changes by asset type:

We discuss the key valuation inputs of our investment properties beginning on page [99](#i76e8aa92b6c84b2b84926f0e052a8335_241).

*Real Estate LP Investments*

Valuation decreases of $1 million primarily relate to fair value uplifts in our Indian office, European student housing, and U.S. multifamily portfolios due to improved leasing assumptions, offset by valuation decreases at certain U.S. office, retail, and logistics assets due to updated market assumptions.

In the prior year, valuation increases of $855 million primarily related to our India office portfolios due to higher occupancy rates and higher valuations in our Australian senior living portfolio due to higher forecasted cash flows, partially offset by valuation decreases at certain U.S. retail assets due to updated leasing assumptions.

*Super Core* 

Valuation increases of $272 million were primarily due to higher forecasted cash flows at certain U.S. office and retail assets as a result of updated leasing assumptions.

Valuations increases of $214 million in the prior year were mainly due to higher forecasted cash flows at certain U.S. retail assets as a result of updated leasing assumptions, partially offset by capitalization rate expansion at a U.K. office asset.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;45

------

*Core Plus*

Core plus valuation increases of $43 million were primarily due to higher forecasted cash flows at certain U.K office assets and U.S. retail assets as a result of updated leasing assumptions, partially offset by capitalization and discount rate expansion at certain Australian office assets.

Valuation decreases of $119 million in the prior year primarily related to updated leasing assumptions at certain U.S. office and retail assets.

*Value Add and Opportunistic*

Valuation decreases of $477 million and $456 million on our value add and opportunistic portfolios, respectively, were primarily due to lower forecasted cash flows at certain U.S. office and retail assets as a result of updated leasing assumptions.

Prior year valuation decreases of $221 million and $321 million on our value add and opportunistic portfolios, respectively, were primarily related to capitalization rate expansion and updated market assumptions at certain U.S. office and retail assets.

*Other investment properties*

Other investment properties primarily include valuation changes related to certain non-core investment properties within our Infrastructure segment. Valuation decreases of $65 million, gains of $148 million in 2024, were primarily due to updated market assumptions. Our other investment properties are valued at $3.0 billion, exceeding their total cost base.

Transaction Related Income, Net of Expenses

Transaction related income, net of expenses, totaled $7 million for the year. This is primarily due to gains on the disposition of certain assets at our European hyperscale data center platform within our Infrastructure segment and a net gain recognized upon deconsolidation of India REIT within our Real Estate LP Investments. These gains were mostly offset by transaction and restructuring costs on acquisitions within our LP Investments as well as at our Private Equity and Renewable Power and Transition segments.

The prior year transaction related income, net of expenses, of $143 million were mostly due to a bargain purchase gain on the acquisition of our North American retail colocation data center business within our Infrastructure segment, partially offset by restructuring costs within our Private Equity segment and transaction costs on acquisitions within our Real Estate segment.

Financial Instruments

Financial instruments include mark-to-market gains and losses related to foreign currency, tax benefits, and derivatives.

Financial instruments mark-to-market increases of $2.1 billion for the year were primarily attributable to mark-to-market gains on tax equity within our Renewable Power and Transition segment, mark-to-market increases on foreign currency and other derivatives within our Renewable Power and Transition and Private Equity segments, and increases in the valuation of certain financial assets within our Private Equity segment.

The increase of $857 million in the prior year is mostly attributable to realization of investment tax credits and mark-to-market gains on energy derivatives, tax equity and financial assets, all within our Renewable Power and Transition segment.

Impairment and Provisions

Impairment and provisions of $1.7 billion in the year are primarily related to the derecognition of tax benefits at certain U.S. renewable energy assets within our Renewable Power and Transition segment as well as valuation decreases on our financial asset interest in a European telecom operation and impairment at our solar power solutions provider, both within our Private Equity segment.

Impairment and provisions expense of $2.4 billion in the prior year are primarily related to the impairment of goodwill at our healthcare services operation and asset impairment at our natural gas production operation, as well as the settlement

46&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

of a legacy pre-acquisition litigation at our dealer software and technology services operation, all within our Private Equity segment.

Other Fair Value Changes

Other fair value decreases of $1.2 billion for the year are primarily attributable to debt amortization costs at our global intermodal container logistics operation and U.S. semiconductor manufacturing facility, and revaluation of third-party liabilities at our Indian telecom tower operation, all within our Infrastructure segment. These decreases were partially offset by a net gain recognized upon the deconsolidation of our healthcare services operation within our Private Equity segment, a gain on the sale of our Australian senior living portfolio within our Real Estate LP investments, and a gain on the step-up revaluation of our Brazilian electricity transmission operation within our Infrastructure segment.

Other fair value decreases of $1.7 billion in the prior year are mainly attributable to debt amortization costs at our global intermodal container logistics operation and U.S. semiconductor manufacturing facility, and revaluation of third-party liabilities at our Indian telecom tower operation, all within our Infrastructure segment, as well as non-controlling interests' share of Australia senior living and India REIT valuation gains within our LP investments.

INCOME TAXES

We recorded an aggregate income tax expense of $1.1 billion in 2025 (2024 – $1.0 billion), including current tax expenses of $1.9 billion (2024 – $1.3 billion) and a deferred tax recovery of $771 million (2024 – $341 million).

Our income tax provision does not include a number of non-income taxes paid that are recorded elsewhere in our consolidated financial statements. For example, a number of our operations in Brazil are required to pay non-recoverable taxes on revenue, which are included in direct costs as opposed to income taxes. In addition, we pay considerable property, payroll and other taxes that represent an important component of the tax base in the jurisdictions in which we operate, which are also predominantly recorded in direct costs.

A reconciliation of our statutory tax rate to our effective tax rate is as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| FOR THE YEARS ENDED DEC. 31 | **2025** | 2024 | Change |
| Statutory income tax rate | **26%** | 26% | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;—% |
| (Reduction)/increase in rate resulting from: |  |  |  |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Taxable loss attributable to non-controlling interests | **11** | 24 | (13) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;International operations subject to different tax rates | **3** | 1 | 2 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Derecognition (Recognition) of deferred tax assets | **—** | (19) | 19 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Non-recognition of the benefit of current year tax losses | **14** | 14 |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Non-deductible expenses (non-taxable income) | **—** | 10 | (10) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Investment and production tax credits | **(13)** | (10) | (3) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other | **2** | 4 | (2) |
| Effective income tax rate | **26%** | 35% | (9%) |

---

In the current year, we realized gains on disposition that were subject to tax rates different to our statutory income tax rate. This contributed to a 17% reduction in our effective tax rate in the current year.

Many of our operations are held in partially owned "flow-through" entities, such as partnerships, where the tax liability is incurred by the investors as opposed to the entity. As a result, while our consolidated earnings include losses attributable to non-controlling ownership interests in such entities, our consolidated tax provision includes only our proportionate share of the associated tax recovery. In other words, we are consolidating all of the income and losses in connection with these entities but only our share of the associated tax recovery. This increased our effective tax rate by 11% this year.

We operate in countries with different tax rates, most of which vary from our domestic statutory rate, and we also benefit from tax incentives introduced in various countries to encourage economic activity. Differences in global tax rates resulted in a 3% increase in our effective tax rate this year. The difference will vary from year to year depending on the relative proportion of income or loss earned in each country.

Some of our operations generated tax losses in the period for which a tax benefit has not been recognized. This resulted in an increase to the effective tax rate by 14%.

During the year, our Infrastructure and Renewable Power segments realized investment tax credits that resulted in tax recoveries. This contributed to a 13% reduction in our effective tax rate.

---

2025 vs. 2024

Total assets increased by $28.5 billion from the prior year to $519.0 billion as at December 31, 2025. The increase is primarily due to recently completed business combinations and asset acquisitions, net of dispositions, across our segments. Increases in our equity accounted investments, primarily related to additional capital deployed in the development of our U.S. semiconductor manufacturing facility within our Infrastructure segment, recent acquisitions within our Renewable Power and Transition segment, and the favorable impact of foreign currency translation, as well as net valuation increases recognized on our property plant and equipment. This was partially offset by the deconsolidation of our India REIT investment, the disposition of our Australian senior living, U.S. triple net lease, and U.S. manufactured housing portfolios, all within our LP investments, as well as amortization and depreciation of our asset base since the beginning of the year.

Summarized below are the key contributors to the year-over-year variances for the statement of financial position.

PP&E increased by $13.0 billion primarily as:

• acquisitions and additions of $32.5 billion, which includes the acquisition of a U.S. fiber network and a U.S. pipeline system, both within our Infrastructure segment, a fully integrated developer and operator of renewable power assets in the U.S. within our Renewable Power and Transition segment, and an electric heat tracing systems manufacturer within our Private Equity segment, as well as investments in development projects within our Renewable Power and Transition and Infrastructure segments;

• the favourable impact of foreign currency translation and other of $5.4 billion due to the depreciation of the U.S. dollar against most major currencies, primarily within our Renewable Power and Transition segment; and

• revaluation surplus of $4.9 billion primarily attributable to higher power pricing across select markets and expected growth in demand for renewable power within our Renewable Power and Transition segment, as well as strong underlying performance from inflation indexation and commissioning of capital projects within our Infrastructure segment; were partially offset by

• depreciation of $7.7 billion during the year; and

• dispositions and assets reclassified as held for sale of $15.5 billion and $6.6 billion, respectively.

We provide a continuity of PP&E in Note 12 of the consolidated financial statements.

50&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

Investment properties predominantly consist of the company's real estate assets. The balance as at December 31, 2025 decreased by $18.1 billion, primarily as:

• acquisitions and additions of $7.1 billion, primarily driven by the acquisitions of a portfolio of single-family rental homes in the U.S., a life sciences portfolio in Singapore, a portfolio of storage assets in Canada, two logistics portfolios in the U.S. and a logistics portfolio in Sweden, and additions, all within our LP investments; and

• the favourable impact of foreign currency translation and other of $2.3 billion due to the depreciation of the U.S. dollar against most major currencies relevant to our operations; were more than offset by

• dispositions and the reclassification of certain assets to held for sale of $23.2 billion, primarily related to the sale of U.S. office and retail assets within our Real Estate segment, and certain senior living, student housing, triple net lease, manufactured housing, logistics, and office assets within our LP Investments, as well as the reclassification to held for sale of a manufactured housing portfolio within our LP Investments; and

• the impact of the deconsolidation of India REIT within our LP investments of $3.6 billion.

We provide a continuity of investment properties in Note 11 of the consolidated financial statements.

Equity accounted investments increased by $11.6 billion in the year to $79.9 billion, primarily as:

• additions, net of disposals, of $10.5 billion primarily due to additions within our infrastructure segment as well as the acquisition of a fully integrated developer and operator of renewable power assets in the U.S. in our Renewable Power and Transition segment;

• our proportionate equity accounted comprehensive income of $3.4 billion; and

• the favorable impact of foreign currency translation and other items of $2.0 billion due to the depreciation of the U.S. dollar against most major currencies; were partially offset by

• distributions and returns of capital received of $4.3 billion.

We provide a continuity of equity accounted investments in Note 10 of the consolidated financial statements.

Cash and cash equivalents increased by $1.2 billion. For further information, refer to our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and to the Review of Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows within Part 4 – Capitalization and Liquidity.

Our intangible assets and goodwill increased by $2.4 billion and $7.6 billion, respectively, primarily as the acquisition of our electric heat tracing systems manufacturer and our specialty consumables and equipment manufacturer, both within our Private Equity segment, as well as the acquisition of a U.S. pipeline system and a U.S. fiber network within our Infrastructure segment, was partially offset by the transfer to assets held for sale of our Brazilian electricity transmission operation and our U.K. rail operation's interest in a subsidiary within our Infrastructure segment.

Other assets are comprised of inventory, deferred income tax assets, assets classified as held for sale and other financial assets. The increase of $7.5 billion is mainly as a result of:

• an increase in other financial assets of $4.1 billion over the year, mainly due to term deposits at our U.S. semiconductor manufacturing facility within our Infrastructure segment as well as increases in the valuation of certain financial assets;

• an increase in assets held for sale of $2.5 billion largely attributable to the agreement to sell a portfolio of operating renewable energy assets in the United States, a portfolio of operating solar assets in the United States, a portfolio of hydroelectric assets in the United States all within our Renewable Power and Transition segment, and our Brazilian electricity transmission operation within our Infrastructure segment; and

• an increase in inventory of $391 million due to the acquisitions of our electric heat tracing systems manufacturer and our specialty consumables and equipment manufacturer, both within our Private Equity segment.

Corporate borrowings increased by $69 million primarily due to the issuance of senior unsecured bonds over the year, net of the repayment of maturing term notes and commercial paper.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;51

------

Non-recourse borrowings of managed entities increased by $24.8 billion, primarily as upfinancings related to the continued development of our U.S semiconductor manufacturing facility and $7.5 billion related to acquisitions through business combinations during the year, including acquisitions of a U.S pipeline system and a U.S fiber network, both within our Infrastructure segment, as well as a $5.0 billion special distribution at our advanced energy storage operation within our Private Equity segment, and the impact of foreign exchange, was partially offset by debt repayments within our Real Estate segment.

Other non-current financial liabilities consist of our subsidiary equity obligations, non-current accounts payable and other long-term financial liabilities that are due in more than one year's time. The decrease of $2.2 billion was primarily due to a decrease in subsidiary equity obligations due to the deconsolidation of the India REIT.

Other liabilities increased by $5.1 billion primarily due to an increase in deferred tax liabilities as a result of acquisitions within our Infrastructure and Private Equity segments as well as an increase in liabilities associated with assets classified as held for sale.

2024 vs. 2023

Total assets as at December 31, 2024 were $490.4 billion, compared to $490.1 billion as at December 31, 2023. The increase is due to business combinations and asset acquisitions, net of dispositions, mostly in our Renewable Power and Transition and Infrastructure segments. Increases in our equity accounted investments, primarily related to acquisitions within our Renewable Power and Transition segment and incremental capital invested in our Wealth Solutions business via BBU units, and BAM shares to support the acquisition of AEL, as well as net valuation increases recognized on our property plant and equipment, also contributed to the increase in total assets. This was partially offset by the deconsolidation of Brookfield Strategic Real Estate Partners ("BSREP") IV within our LP investment, as well as amortization and depreciation of our asset base and the unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation.

PP&E increased by $5.4 billion primarily as a result of acquisitions and additions, net of dispositions, completed across our segments, revaluation surplus largely within our Renewable Power and Transition and Infrastructure segment partially offset by the unfavourable impact of foreign currency translation and depreciation.

Investment properties were $20.5 billion lower at the end of 2024 compared to 2023 primarily driven by additions in our Real Estate segment offset by impact of the deconsolidation of BSREP IV within our LP investments and asset sales and the classification of certain assets to held for sale, primarily related to the transfer of certain office, retail and logistics assets to held for sale within our Real Estate segment and LP investments.

Equity accounted investments increased by $9.2 billion primarily due to additions, net of disposals, and our proportionate share of comprehensive income, partially offset by distributions and returns of capital received.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $3.8 billion as at December 31, 2024 compared to 2023. For further information, refer to our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and to the Review of Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows within Part 4 – Capitalization and Liquidity.

Intangible assets decreased by $2.9 billion primarily related acquisitions of our North American retail colocation data center and our Indian telecom tower operation within our Infrastructure segment were more than offset by the unfavourable impact of amortization and foreign currency translation within our Private Equity and Infrastructure segments.

Goodwill increased by $819 million primarily related to the acquisition of our French renewable portfolio within our Renewable Power and Transition segment, partially offset by impairment of goodwill at our healthcare services operation, the deconsolidation of our payment processing services operation and disposition of our road fuels operation, all within our Private Equity segment.

52&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

Other assets increased by $2.8 billion as the increase in assets held for sale across our businesses was partially offset by lower inventory from dispositions within our Private Equity segment and the deconsolidation of BSREP IV within our LP investments, as well as a decrease in other financial assets due to the conversion of preferred shares in our Wealth Solutions business into common shares in December 2024.

Corporate borrowings increased by $2.1 billion from the issuance of $750 million of 30-year bonds in March 2024, the issuance of $450 million of 10-year bonds and the re-opening of $200 million of 30-year bonds in June 2024, as well as the issuance of $700 million 30-year subordinated debt in December 2024, and commercial paper issuances throughout the year, partially offset by repayment of maturing term notes.

Non-recourse borrowings decreased by $1.0 billion in 2024, primarily due to the deconsolidation of BSREP IV within our LP investments, partially offset by acquisitions and upfinancings within our Renewable Power and Transition and Infrastructure segments.

Other non-current financial liabilities increased by $512 million from 2023, primarily due to an increase in subsidiary equity obligations at our Indian telecom operation within our Infrastructure segment.

Other liabilities increased by $1.6 billion primarily as the aforementioned classification to held for sale of certain assets within our Renewable Power and Transition, Private Equity and Real Estate segments, and LP investments, was partially offset by a decrease in the current portion of accounts payable and other.

EQUITY

The significant variances in common equity and non-controlling interests are discussed below. Preferred equity is discussed in Part 4 – Capitalization and Liquidity.

COMMON EQUITY

The following table presents the major contributors to the year-over-year variances for common equity:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| AS AT AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DEC. 31<br>(MILLIONS) | **2025** | 2024 |
| Common equity, beginning of year | $**41874** | $41674 |
| Changes in period |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net income attributable to shareholders | **1307** | 641 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other comprehensive income | **1833** | 766 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Common dividends | **(552)** | (495) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Preferred dividends | **(167)** | (168) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Repurchases, net of equity issuances | **(864)** | (940) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ownership changes and other | **365** | 396 |
|  | **1922** | 200 |
| Common equity, end of year | $**43796** | $41874 |

---

Common equity increased by $1.9 billion to $43.8 billion during the year, primarily due to:

• net income attributable to common shareholders of $1.3 billion;

• other comprehensive income of $1.8 billion, primarily related to revaluation gains on property, plant and equipment within our Renewable Power and Transition and Infrastructure segments and foreign currency translation, partially offset by unrealized mark-to-market movements on commodity hedges and financial assets across our businesses; and

• ownership changes and other of $365 million primarily related to a gain on sale of a portion of our interest in BAM to our Wealth Solutions business; partially offset by

• distributions of $719 million to shareholders as common and preferred share dividends; and

• share repurchases, net of issuances, of $864 million, mainly related to the repurchase of 28.0 million Class A Limited Voting Shares ("Class A shares") during the year.

NON-CONTROLLING INTERESTS

Non-controlling interests in our consolidated results primarily consist of third-party interests in BAM, BEP, BIP, BBU, BPG and their consolidated entities as well as fund investors and other participating interests in our consolidated investments as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| AS AT DEC. 31<br>(MILLIONS) | **2025** | 2024 |
| Brookfield Asset Management | $**2355** | $2269 |
| Brookfield Renewable Partners | **31010** | 32635 |
| Brookfield Infrastructure Partners | **33229** | 27651 |
| Brookfield Business Partners | **13421** | 15429 |
| Brookfield Property Group | **26288** | 25725 |
| Other participating interests | **12005** | 15697 |
|  | $**118308** | $119406 |

---

Non-controlling interests decreased by $1.1 billion during the year, primarily due to:

• comprehensive income attributable to non-controlling interests, which totaled $7.1 billion; more than offset by

• ownership changes of $4.3 billion, primarily related to the acquisition of remaining non-controlling interests in a leading global renewables developer in France and the deconsolidation upon sale of an additional 25% interest in a 845 MW portfolio of U.S. wind assets in our Renewable Power and Transition segment, partially offset by the acquisition of a U.S. pipeline system and U.S. fiber network in our Infrastructure segment; and

• distributions, net of equity issuances of $4.0 billion, primarily related to a special distribution by our advanced energy storage operation in our Private Equity business.

CONSOLIDATION AND FAIR VALUE ACCOUNTING

As a Canadian domiciled public corporation, we report under IFRS Accounting Standards, while many other issuers that may be considered peers report under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP"). There are many differences between U.S. GAAP and IFRS Accounting Standards, but the two principal differences affecting our consolidated financial statements compared to those of other issuers are consolidation and fair value accounting.

In particular, U.S. GAAP allows some issuers to report certain investments, which qualify as variable interest entities, at fair value as a single line item on their balance sheet on a proportionate ownership basis as opposed to consolidating the underlying funds that the investment is held in inclusive of non-controlling interests. This approach is not available under IFRS Accounting Standards. This can create significant differences in the presentation of our financial statements as compared to other issuers.

CONSOLIDATION

Our consolidation conclusions under IFRS Accounting Standards may differ from other issuers who report under U.S. GAAP for two primary reasons:

• U.S. GAAP uses a voting interest model or a variable interest model to determine consolidation requirements, depending on the circumstances, whereas IFRS Accounting Standards uses a control-based model. We generally have the contractual ability to unilaterally direct the relevant activities of the funds managed by our Asset Management business; and;

• we generally invest significant amounts of capital alongside clients of our Asset Management business and partners, which means that we earn meaningful returns as a principal investor in addition to our share of asset management returns compared to others who may act solely as an agent.

As a result, in many cases, we control entities in which we hold only a minority economic interest. For example, a Brookfield-sponsored private fund to which we have committed 30% of the capital may acquire 80% of the voting interest in an investee company. The contractual arrangements generally provide us with the irrevocable ability to direct the funds'

54&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

relevant activities. Based on these facts, we would control the investment because we exercise decision-making power over a controlling interest of that business and our 24% economic interest provides us with sufficient exposure to the variable returns of a principal.

All entities that we control are consolidated for financial reporting purposes. As a result, we include 100% of these entities' revenues and expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Operations, even though a substantial portion of their net income is attributable to non-controlling interests. Furthermore, we include all of the assets, liabilities, including non-recourse borrowings, of these entities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets, and include the portion of equity held by others as non-controlling interests.

Intercompany revenues and expenses between Brookfield and its subsidiaries, such as asset management fees, are eliminated in our Consolidated Statements of Operations; however, these items affect the attribution of net income between shareholders and non-controlling interests. For example, asset management fees paid by our perpetual affiliates to our Asset Management business are eliminated from consolidated revenues and expenses. However, as the common shareholders are attributed 73%<sup>1</sup> of the fee revenues<sup>2</sup> while only attributed their proportionate share of the listed affiliates' expenses, the amount of net income attributable to common shareholders is increased with a corresponding decrease in net income attributable to non-controlling interests.

FAIR VALUE ACCOUNTING

Under U.S. GAAP, many issuers who may be considered our peers account for their funds as investment companies and reflect their investments at fair value.

Under IFRS Accounting Standards, as a parent company, we are required to look through our consolidated and equity accounted investments and account for their assets and liabilities under the applicable IFRS Accounting Standards. We reflect a large number of assets at fair value, namely our investment properties, renewable power facilities and certain infrastructure assets which are typically recorded at amortized cost under U.S. GAAP. However, there are other assets that are not subject to fair value accounting under IFRS Accounting Standards and are therefore carried at amortized cost, which would be more consistent with U.S. GAAP.

Under both IFRS and U.S. GAAP Accounting Standards, the value of target carried interest, net of direct costs, of our Asset Management business is generally not reflected on the balance sheet despite being a material component of the value of our business.

For additional details on the valuation approach for the relevant segments, critical assumptions and related sensitivities, refer to Part 5 – Accounting Policies and Internal Controls.

<sup>1</sup> In June 2025, we transferred a 4% direct interest in BAM to our Wealth Solutions business. On a combined basis with our Wealth Solutions business, we hold a 73% ownership interest in BAM, of which 69% is held directly and 4% is held through BWS.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

A portion of our capital is invested in non-U.S. dollar currencies and the cash flows generated from these businesses, as well as our equity, are subject to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. From time to time, we utilize financial contracts to adjust these exposures. The most significant currency exchange rates that impact our business are shown in the following table:

1. Using Brazilian real and Colombian peso as the price currency.

Year end spot foreign currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar appreciated compared to December 31, 2024. As at December 31, 2025, our common equity of $43.8 billion was invested in the following currencies: U.S. dollars – 58% (December 31, 2024 – 64%); British pounds – 13% (December 31, 2024 – 12%); Canadian dollars – 7% (December 31, 2024 – 2%); Euro – 5% (December 31, 2024 – 8%); Brazilian reais – 4% (December 31, 2024 – 4%); Australian dollars – 4% (December 31, 2024 – 3%); and other currencies – 9% (December 31, 2024 – 7%).

The following table disaggregates the impact of foreign currency translation on our equity by the most significant non-U.S. dollar currencies:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| FOR THE YEARS ENDED DEC. 31<br>(MILLIONS) | **2025** | 2024 | Change |
| Australian dollar | $**508** | $(697) | $1205 |
| Brazilian real | **891** | (2279) | 3170 |
| British pound | **1119** | (233) | 1352 |
| Canadian dollar | **182** | (1040) | 1222 |

| Attributable to: |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shareholders | $**797** | $(778) | $1575 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Non-controlling interests | **2509** | (3260) | 5769 |
|  | $**3306** | $(4038) | $7344 |

---

The foreign currency translation of our equity, net of currency hedges, increased consolidated equity by $3.3 billion for the year ended December 31, 2025, of which our share was $797 million. This was attributable to higher year-end rates across most currencies relative to the U.S. dollar.

We seek to hedge foreign currency exposure where the cost of doing so is reasonable. Due to the high costs associated with hedging the Brazilian real, Colombian peso and other emerging market currencies, hedge levels against those currencies were low as at December 31, 2025.

SUMMARY OF QUARTERLY RESULTS

The quarterly variances in revenues over the past two years are due primarily to acquisitions and dispositions. Variances in net income to shareholders relate primarily to the timing and amount of non-cash fair value changes and deferred tax provisions, as well as seasonality and cyclical influences in certain businesses. Changes in ownership have resulted in the consolidation and deconsolidation of revenues from some of our assets, particularly in our Real Estate, Infrastructure and Private Equity businesses. Other factors include the impact of foreign currency on non-U.S. revenues and net income attributable to non-controlling interests.

Our Real Estate business typically generates consistent same-store net operating income on a quarterly basis due to the long-term nature of contractual lease arrangements subject to the intermittent recognition of disposition and lease termination gains. Our retail properties typically experience seasonally higher retail sales during the fourth quarter, and our resort hotels tend to experience higher revenues and costs as a result of increased visits during the first quarter. We fair value our real estate assets on a quarterly basis which results in variations in net income based on changes in the value.

Renewable power hydroelectric operations are seasonal in nature. Generation tends to be higher during the winter rainy season in Brazil and spring thaws in North America; however, this is mitigated to an extent by prices, which tend not to be as strong as they are in the summer and winter seasons due to the more moderate weather conditions and reductions in demand for electricity. Water and wind conditions may also vary from year to year. Our Infrastructure operations are generally stable in nature as a result of regulation or long-term sales contracts with our investors, certain of which guarantee minimum volumes.

Revenues and direct costs in our Private Equity operations vary from quarter to quarter primarily due to acquisitions and dispositions of businesses, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, business and economic cycles, and weather and seasonality in underlying operations. Broader economic factors and commodity market volatility may have a significant impact on a number of our businesses, in particular within our industrials portfolio. Within our infrastructure services, our work access services is subject to potential seasonal fluctuations in the demand for services. Some of our business services operations will typically have stronger performance in the latter half of the year whereas others, such as our residential mortgage insurer, fluctuate based on seasonality and macroeconomic conditions affecting the Canadian housing market. Net income is impacted by periodic gains and losses on monetization and impairments.

------

Over the last eight quarters, the factors discussed below caused variations in revenues and net income to shareholders on a quarterly basis:

• In the fourth quarter of 2025, revenues increased in comparison to the prior quarter primarily due to organic growth initiatives at our Infrastructure and Renewable Power and Transition segments, and increased sales volumes at our North American residential business within our Real Estate segment. Net income increased due to gains associated with the disposition of certain assets within our Infrastructure segment.

• In the third quarter of 2025, revenues increased in comparison to the prior quarter primarily due to organic growth initiatives at our Infrastructure and Private Equity segments as well as contributions from the acquisition of a U.S. pipeline system within our Infrastructure segment. Net income decreased due to the absence of contributions from recent dispositions, primarily within our Real Estate segment.

• In the second quarter of 2025, revenues were consistent with the prior quarter. Net income increased due to valuation increases on our U.S. manufactured housing and triple net lease portfolios, as well as the derecognition of deferred tax liabilities on the sale of our Australian senior living portfolio, both in our LP investments, and a net gain recognized on the deconsolidation of our healthcare services operation within our Private Equity segment.

• In the first quarter of 2025, revenues decreased in comparison to the prior quarter primarily due to lower revenues at our offshore oil services following the disposition of its shuttle tanker operation within our Private Equity segment, partially offset by increased contributions from our Infrastructure segment due to inflation indexation and rate base increases. Net income increased due to gains associated with the disposition of our Mexican natural gas transmission pipelines within our Infrastructure segment and absence of certain impairments and provisions from the prior quarter, partially offset by fair value decreases in our Real Estate and Infrastructure segments.

• In the fourth quarter of 2024, revenues decreased in comparison to the prior quarter primarily due to decreased contributions from our Private Equity segment from the disposition of our road fuels operation as prior quarter included partial revenues due to the timing of the sale, partially offset by increased contributions from our Infrastructure segment due to inflation indexation and rate base increases. Net income decreased as increased equity accounted income from growth in our Wealth Solutions business and higher valuations of certain equity accounted investment properties within our Real Estate and Infrastructure segments were more than offset by the impairment of goodwill at our healthcare services operation, asset impairment at our natural gas production operation, and the settlement of a legacy pre-acquisition litigation at our dealer software and technology services operation, all within our Private Equity segment.

• In the third quarter of 2024, revenues decreased in comparison to the prior quarter primarily due to decreased contributions from our Private Equity segment from the disposition of our road fuels operation, partially offset by increased contributions from our Infrastructure segment due to inflation indexation and rate base increases. Net income increased primarily from the recognition of tax benefits at our advanced energy storage operation and gains associated with the disposition of our road fuels operation, both within our Private Equity segment, partially offset by mark-to-market decreases related to insurance reserves within our Wealth Solutions business.

• In the second quarter of 2024, revenues increased in comparison to the prior quarter primarily due to lease commencements and higher rents at certain properties within our Real Estate segment and our LP investments within our Asset Management segment. Net income decreased as contributions from the close of AEL were more than offset by fair value decreases at certain U.S. value add properties within our Real Estate segment, and as the prior quarter included a bargain purchase gain on the acquisition of our North American retail colocation data center business within our Infrastructure segment.

• In the first quarter of 2024, revenues decreased in comparison to the prior quarter primarily due to decreased contributions from our Private Equity segment from the deconsolidation of our nuclear technology services operation and lower volumes at our engineered components manufacturing operation, partially offset by increased contributions in our Renewable Power and Transition segment from the acquisition of a U.S. renewable portfolio. Net income decreased due to lower disposition gains compared to the prior quarter.

Part 3

Operating Segment Results

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

HOW WE MEASURE AND REPORT OUR OPERATING SEGMENTS

Our operations are organized into our Asset Management business, our Wealth Solutions business, our four Operating Businesses and our Corporate Activities, which collectively represent seven operating segments for internal and external reporting purposes.

For our Asset Management and Wealth Solutions segments, we measure operating performance using DE<sup>1</sup>. To further assess operating performance for our Asset Management segment, we also report unrealized carried interest<sup>1</sup> which represents carried interest generated on unrealized changes in the fair value of our private funds, net of realized carried interest<sup>1</sup>. Net operating income ("NOI")<sup>1</sup> is the key performance metric for our Real Estate segment, and Funds from Operations ("FFO")<sup>1</sup> is used for our other operating segments. We also monitor the amount of capital invested by the Corporation in each segment using common equity. Common equity relates to invested capital<sup>1</sup> allocated to a particular business segment, which we use interchangeably with segment common equity.

Our operating segments are global in scope and are as follows:

i.The *Asset Management* business includes managing long-term private funds, perpetual strategies and liquid strategies on behalf of our investors and ourselves. We generate contractual base management fees for these activities as well as incentive distributions<sup>1</sup> and performance income, including performance fees<sup>1</sup>, transaction fees and carried interest<sup>1</sup>. The Asset Management business also includes our direct investments into and alongside private funds managed by BAM.

ii.The *Wealth Solutions* business includes our equity accounted interest in BWS, an investment-led insurance organization focused on securing the financial futures of individuals and institutions through a range of retirement services, wealth protection products and tailored capital solutions.

Operating Businesses

iii.The *Renewable Power and Transition* business includes the ownership, operation and development of hydroelectric, wind, utility-scale solar power generating assets, distributed energy and sustainable solutions.

iv.The *Infrastructure* business includes the ownership, operation and development of utilities, transport, midstream, and data assets.

v.The *Private Equity* business includes a broad range of industries, and is mostly focused on ownership and operations in the business services and industrials sectors.

vi.The *Real Estate* business includes the ownership, operation and development of super core, core plus, value add, opportunistic, and North American Residential assets.

vii.*Corporate Activities* include the investment of cash and financial assets, as well as the management of our corporate leverage, including corporate borrowings and preferred equity, which fund a portion of the capital invested in our other operations. Certain corporate costs such as technology and operations are allocated to each operating segment based on an internal pricing framework.

<sup>1</sup> See definition in Glossary of Terms beginning on page 133.

60&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

In assessing operating performance and capital allocation, we separately identify the portion of DE, NOI, or FFO and common equity that relate to each segment, where applicable. We believe that identifying the key operating metrics attributable to each segment enables investors to understand how the results of these entities are integrated into our financial results and is helpful in analyzing variances between reporting periods. Additional information with respect to our listed affiliates (BAM, BEP, BIP, BBU) is available in their public filings. We also separately identify the components of realized carried interest, net<sup>1</sup>, and realized disposition gains<sup>1</sup> included within the DE and FFO of each segment in order to facilitate analysis of variances between reporting periods.

SUMMARY OF RESULTS BY OPERATING SEGMENT

The following table presents DE, FFO, NOI and common equity by segment, where applicable, on a period-over-period basis for comparative purposes:

1. DE is the key performance metric for our Asset Management and Wealth Solutions segments. NOI is the key performance metric for the Real Estate segment only. FFO is the key performance metric for the Renewable Power and Transition, Infrastructure, Private Equity, and Corporate Activities segments.

2. See definition in Glossary of Terms beginning on page [133](#i76e8aa92b6c84b2b84926f0e052a8335_268).

3. Our common equity in our Wealth Solutions business includes $4.2 billion of distributable earnings retained in this business, mark-to-market movements on our investment portfolio and reserves and other adjustments required under IFRS.

During the year, we generated strong results with DE<sup>1</sup> totaling $6.0 billion. DE before realizations<sup>1</sup> were $5.4 billion for the year, an increase of $515 million or 11% over the prior year. The increase is attributable to continued fundraising momentum and capital deployment in our Asset Management business, strong investment performance and continued growth of the insurance asset base in our Wealth Solutions business, and growing cash flows of our Operating Businesses.

Our Asset Management business DE was $3.3 billion in the current year, an increase of $279 million or 9% over the prior year. BAM benefited from strong fundraising momentum, raising $112 billion for the year, including $24 billion from our retail and wealth clients, as well as from a broad range of complementary strategies and our flagship strategies, which included the final closes of the latest vintages of our energy transition strategy, our opportunistic credit strategy, and our opportunistic real estate strategy. Fee-bearing capital<sup>1</sup> increased by $64 billion or 12% over the prior year, supporting growth in fee-related earnings<sup>1</sup> of 22%. Asset Management DE includes distributions from our direct investments of $876 million in the current year.

DE from our Wealth Solutions business was $1.7 billion, a $321 million increase from the prior year, supported by strong investment performance and continued expansion of the insurance asset base. During the year, we originated $20 billion of retail and institutional annuities, increasing insurance assets to $143 billion, with 85% of annuities written during the year having a term of five years or longer.

<sup>1</sup> See definition in Glossary of Terms beginning on page 133.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;61

------

Renewable Power and Transition's FFO increased by $114 million compared to the prior year primarily due to the commissioning of development assets across our portfolio, strong hydrology in Canada and Colombia, higher contributions from our global nuclear services business, and favourable results from our energy contracts. This was partially offset by lower hydrology in Brazil, net disposition activity, increased interest expense due to additional borrowings to finance ongoing capital projects, and higher management fees from the increased market capitalization at BEP.

Infrastructure's FFO increased by $190 million compared to the prior year, primarily due to inflation indexation on contracts, volume growth in our utilities, midstream and data businesses, and disposition gains from the sale of our Australian container terminal operations, as well as commissioning of capital projects across our businesses. This was partially offset by net disposition activity, increased interest expense related to additional borrowings to finance ongoing investments, the impact of foreign exchange, and higher management fees from the increased market capitalization at BIP.

Private Equity's FFO was $455 million in the current year. Excluding the impact of our reduced direct ownership in BBU<sup>1</sup>, realized disposition gains, and the contributions from the recognition of accumulated tax benefits at our advanced energy storage operation in industrials in the prior year, operating FFO decreased by $94 million. This was primarily as same-store growth from across our businesses and increased demand for higher margin advanced batteries at our advanced energy storage operation in industrials, was more than offset by net disposition activity in our business and infrastructure services operations throughout 2024, higher borrowing costs primarily associated with a special distribution from our advanced energy storage operation in the first quarter of 2025, and performance fees distribution to BAM from the increased market capitalization of BBU.

Our Real Estate business continues to build momentum amid a broad-based global recovery. Operating fundamentals remain strong across our portfolio, with occupancy rates remaining high at 96% and 95% in our super core and core plus portfolios, respectively. BPG's NOI for the year was $3.1 billion compared to $3.4 billion in the prior year, as same-store super core NOI growth was more than offset by net disposition activity and lower lot sales at our North American residential business.

Common equity increased by $1.9 billion to $43.8 billion in the year ended December 31, 2025 primarily due to comprehensive income and ownership changes, partially offset by share repurchases, net of issuances and distributions to common and preferred shareholders. Ownership changes were primarily related to a gain on sale of a portion of our interest in BAM to our Wealth Solutions business. Refer to Part 2 – Review of Consolidated Financial Results for details.

<sup>1</sup> In the fourth quarter of 2024, BWS acquired a $1 billion economic interest in BBU from the Corporation. On a combined basis, we hold a 68% ownership interest in BBU, which is held 43% directly in BBU and 25% through BWS.

Asset Management

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Our Asset Management business is a leading global alternative asset manager, with over $1 trillion of assets under management as at December 31, 2025 across renewable power and transition, infrastructure private equity, real estate, and credit.

In February 2025, the Corporation exchanged its interest in Brookfield Asset Management ULC for an interest in Brookfield Asset Management Ltd. ("BAM") on a one-for-one basis. Following this transaction and as at December 31, 2025, our capital in this business is held via our 73% ownership interest in BAM<sup>1</sup>, which in turn holds 100% of our Asset Management business.

The business invests client capital for the long term with a focus on real assets and essential service businesses that form the backbone of the global economy. The business draws on our heritage as an owner and operator to invest for value and generate strong returns for clients, across economic cycles. Our clients include some of the world's largest and most sophisticated institutional investors, including sovereign wealth funds, pension plans, endowments, foundations, financial institutions, insurance companies, and individual investors.

The collaboration between the 5,800+<sup>2</sup> investment and asset management professionals and employees in our Asset Management business, and approximately 250,000 operating employees located in over 50 countries on five continents, provides Brookfield with deep investment and operating expertise across several sectors and industries, global reach and unique access to proprietary investment opportunities.

We put our own capital to work alongside our investors' in virtually every transaction, aligning interests and leveraging our global presence, the synergies of our business and large-scale, flexible capital to achieve strong returns across market cycles.

We offer our clients a large and growing number of investment products to assist them in achieving their financial goals, providing a diverse set of long-term and perpetual private funds and dedicated public vehicles across each of the asset classes in which we invest and spanning various investment strategies.

As the asset manager of these investment products, our Asset Management business earns base management fees in addition to incentive distributions, performance fees, or carried interest depending on the product offering.

Our Asset Management business focuses on raising capital by establishing new investment products for our clients, identifying and acquiring high-quality assets, delivering strong underlying investment performance and executing timely monetizations or refinancings. If we execute in these areas, this should equate to growth in fee-bearing and carry eligible capital<sup>3</sup> and in turn higher fee revenues, fee-related earnings and realized carried interest over time.

We also include the discretionary capital that we invest directly into and alongside private funds managed by BAM and other investments within the results of our Asset Management business. These investments include flagship real estate private funds that are managed by BAM with long-term track records of earning strong returns, as well as capital invested in other real estate, private equity, opportunistic and other credit funds managed by BAM, and other investments.

OUTLOOK AND GROWTH INITIATIVES

We provide a highly diversified suite of alternative investment strategies to our clients and are constantly seeking to innovate new strategies to meet their needs. We have over 55 unique active strategies that span a wide range of risk-adjusted returns, including opportunistic, value-add, core, super-core, and credit.

Our business model has proven to be resilient through economic cycles, due to our strong foundation and discipline. Overall, our business is stronger and more diversified than ever and well positioned to deliver continued growth.

<sup>1</sup> In June 2025, we transferred a 4% direct interest in BAM to our Wealth Solutions business. On a combined basis with our Wealth Solutions business, we hold a 73% ownership interest in BAM, of which 69% is held directly and 4% is held through BWS.

<sup>2</sup> Includes Oaktree employees that will become Brookfield employees following Brookfield's acquisition of the approximately 26% of Oaktree that it does not already own and approximately 1,500 fully-dedicated Brookfield operating employees that are integral to the business, including individuals focused on our core investment strategies and those undertaking various corporate activities.

<sup>3</sup> See definition in Glossary of Terms beginning on page 133.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;63

------

During 2025, we raised a record $112 billion across more than 50 strategies globally, reflecting strong flagship fundraising and continued momentum across our complementary offerings. We raised $13 billion for our flagship funds, including inflows from our second global transition fund and our fifth opportunistic real estate fund strategy. We continued to progress fundraising across our complementary strategies, raising a further $99 billion of capital over the year, with inflows from our insurance mandates, perpetual and long-term funds, and partner managers' credit funds.

In addition, we are also actively progressing new growth strategies, including transition, and insurance. These new initiatives, in addition to our existing strategies, are expected to have a very meaningful impact on our growth trajectory in the long term.

We continue to expand our investor base through existing relationships and new channels. As at December 31, 2025, we had over 2,400 clients, made up of some of the world's largest and most sophisticated institutional investors, including sovereign wealth funds, pension plans, endowments, foundations, financial institutions, insurance companies, and individual investors. Our private wealth channel also continues to grow and represents over 8% of current commitments. We have a dedicated team of over 150 people that are focused on distributing and developing catered products to the private wealth channel.

*Long-term Private Funds – $285 billion fee-bearing capital*<sup>1</sup>

Our Asset Management business manages and earns fees on a diverse range of renewable power and transition, infrastructure, private equity, real estate and credit funds. These funds have a long duration, are closed-end and include opportunistic, value-add, core and core plus investment strategies.

On long-term private fund capital, our Asset Management business earns:

1. Diversified and long-term base management fees on capital that is typically committed for 10 years with two one-year extension options.

2. Carried interest, which enables our business to receive a portion of overall fund profits provided that investors receive a minimum prescribed preferred return. Carried interest is recognized when a fund's cumulative returns are in excess of preferred returns and when it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur.

3. Transaction and advisory fees are one-time fees earned on co-investment capital related to the close of transactions, and vary based on transaction agreements.

*Perpetual Strategies – $241 billion fee-bearing capital*

Our Asset Management business manages the perpetual capital in our perpetual affiliates, as well as in its core and core plus private funds, which can continually raise new capital. From these perpetual strategies, our business earns:

1. Long-term perpetual base management fees, which are based on total capitalization or net asset value ("NAV") of our perpetual affiliates and the NAV of its perpetual private funds.

2. Stable incentive distribution fees which are linked to cash distributions from perpetual affiliates (BEP/BEPC and BIP/BIPC) that exceed predetermined thresholds. These cash distributions have a historical track record of growing annually and each of these perpetual affiliates target annual distribution growth rates within a range of 5-9%.

3. Performance fees based on unit price performance (BBU) and carried interest on its perpetual private funds.

*Liquid Strategies – $77 billion fee-bearing capital* 

Our Asset Management business manages publicly listed funds and separately managed accounts, focused on fixed income and equity securities across real estate, infrastructure and natural resources. Our business earns base management fees, which are based on committed capital and fund NAV, and performance income based on investment returns.

Renewable power and transition fee-bearing capital increased by $9.4 billion, due to:

• inflows from capital raised from the final institutional close of our second global transition fund and our catalytic transition fund; and

• increase in market valuations as a result of higher market capitalization of BEP; partially offset by

• distributions paid to BEP's unitholders and capital returned to investors across our long-term private funds.

Infrastructure fee-bearing capital increased by $9.3 billion, due to:

• inflows from capital raised across our perpetual and long-term private funds; and

• increase in market valuations as a result of higher market capitalization of BIP; partially offset by

• distributions paid to BIP's unitholders and capital returned to investors across our long-term and perpetual private funds.

Private equity fee-bearing capital increased by $2.8 billion, due to:

• inflows from capital raised across private equity long-term private fund strategies; and

• increase in market valuations as a result of higher market capitalization of BBU; partially offset by

• repayment of corporate level borrowings at BBU and distributions from our long-term private funds.

Real estate fee-bearing capital increased by $8.1 billion, due to:

• inflows from the final retail close of our fifth flagship opportunistic real estate fund; and

• inflows from capital raised and deployed across our long-term private funds; partially offset by

• distributions from our long-term private funds.

Credit fee-bearing capital increased by $34.6 billion, due to:

• inflows from our Wealth Solutions business;

• inflows from capital raised and deployed across our perpetual strategies and long-term private funds; and

• higher market valuations across our liquid and perpetual strategies and long-term private funds; partially offset by

• outflows and redemptions from our liquid and perpetual strategies and distributions from our long-term private funds.

CARRY ELIGIBLE CAPITAL

Carry eligible capital<sup>1</sup> increased by $22.4 billion during the year to $262.7 billion as at December 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024 – $240.3 billion), primarily related to capital raised in our second global transition fund, our fifth vintage of our opportunistic real estate strategy and our closed-end and evergreen credit funds, partially offset by distributions from our second and third opportunistic real estate fund.

As at December 31, 2025, $176.7 billion of carry eligible capital was deployed (December 31, 2024 – $167.1 billion). This capital is either currently earning carried interest or will begin earning carried interest once its related funds have reached their preferred return threshold. There are currently $85.9 billion of uncalled fund commitments that will begin to earn carried interest once the capital is deployed and fund preferred returns are met (December 31, 2024 – $73.1 billion).

OPERATING RESULTS

DE from our Asset Management business includes fee-related earnings, net of corporate costs, excluding equity-based compensation costs and realized carried interest we earn on capital managed for our investors. Fee-related earnings includes fees earned by BAM on the capital we invest in the perpetual affiliates. This is representative of how we manage the business and measure the returns from our asset management activities. DE from our Asset Management business also includes operating earnings from our interests in direct investments. We also analyze unrealized carried interest, net, to provide insight into the value our investments have created in the period.

---

Fee-related earnings increased to $3.0 billion, mainly due to higher base management fees driven by increased fee-bearing capital and growth in revenues from incentive distributions and performance fees, reflecting increased distribution levels at BIP and BEP and higher market capitalization at BBU, respectively, partially offset by increased direct costs as we continue to scale our Asset Management business.

Base management fees increased by $663 million to $4.9 billion, representing a 16% increase from the prior year as a result of the following activity:

• $303 million increase from our credit business due to contributions from our partner managers and inflows from our Wealth Solutions business;

<sup>1</sup> See definition in Glossary of Terms beginning on page 133.

<sup>2</sup> Non-recourse borrowings relate to interest paid on a $1 billion loan issued to a large institutional partner in December 2024.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;67

------

• $122 million increase from our real estate business due to capital raised for the fifth vintage of our flagship opportunistic real estate strategy;

• $182 million increase from our renewable power and transition business due to capital raised, including related catch-up fees, from the final institutional close of our second global transition strategy as well as inflows from our perpetual strategies and long-term private funds;

• $49 million increase from our infrastructure business due to inflows from perpetual strategies and higher market capitalization of BIP; and

• $7 million increase from our private equity business due to higher market capitalization of BBU.

Revenues from incentive distributions and performance fees increased by $42 million and $95 million, respectively, compared to the prior year, reflecting increased distribution levels at BIP and BEP and higher market capitalization at BBU, respectively.

The margin on our fee-related earnings was 58% in the current year, in line with the prior year (2024 – 57%).

Direct costs consist primarily of employee expenses and professional fees, as well as business related technology costs and other shared services. Direct costs increased by $274 million from the prior year as we continue to scale our asset management franchise.

Amounts not attributable to the Corporation relate to non-controlling interest ("NCI") of our Asset Management business.

*ii.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Realized Carried Interest*

We realize carried interest when a fund's cumulative realized returns are in excess of invested capital and preferred returns, and are no longer subject to future investment performance (e.g., subject to "clawback"). During the year, we realized $560 million of carried interest, net of direct costs (2024 – $403 million), which were primarily driven by realizations from flagship funds within our Infrastructure and Real Estate businesses, as well as from our Oaktree closed-end credit funds.

We provide supplemental information and analysis below on the estimated amount of unrealized carried interest (see section iv) that has accumulated based on fund performance up to the date of the consolidated financial statements.

*iii.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Direct investments*

DE before realizations from our direct investments of $876 million was $33 million lower than the prior year. The decrease is mainly attributable to lower cash distributions received compared to the prior year and realized disposition gains from our direct investments of $10 million were primarily attributable to the sale of certain financial assets.

| Accumulated unrealized, end of period, net | $**9346** | $**(2977)** | $**6369** | $10044 | $(3021) | $7023 |

---

Unrealized carried interest generated in the current year before foreign exchange and associated costs was $907 million primarily related to increased valuations in our infrastructure, credit, renewable power and transition, and private equity funds.

Accumulated unrealized carried interest, at our share<sup>1</sup>, totaled $9.3 billion as at December 31, 2025. We estimate approximately $3.0 billion in associated costs related to the future realization of the accumulated amounts to date, predominantly related to employee long-term incentive plans that will be incurred. We expect approximately $6 billion of carried interest, net of costs, to be realized within the next three years.

Wealth Solutions

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Our Wealth Solutions business is an investment-led insurance organization focused on securing the financial futures of individuals and institutions through a range of retirement services, wealth protection products and tailored capital solutions. Through its operating subsidiaries, BWS offers a broad range of insurance products and services, including annuities, personal and commercial property and casualty insurance, and life insurance.

The business creates value by using our globally diversified operating platform to originate low-risk liabilities that deliver a highly competitive risk-adjusted cost of capital to support operations, applying a proactive risk management approach to minimize the risk of underwritten liabilities, and leveraging Brookfield's broader investment capabilities to source high-quality investment opportunities across real assets (debt and equity) that are well suited to the underlying insurance liabilities.

In doing so, our Wealth Solutions business seeks to generate a 15%+ return on equity over the long term by investing in a balanced investment portfolio, including liquid fixed income and real assets, to earn an investment return that exceeds its cost of liabilities.

Our capital invested in our Wealth Solutions business is held via our equity accounted investment in BWS, which is listed on the NYSE and TSX. We refer to BWS as a "paired entity" to the Corporation. Each BWS Class A exchangeable share has been structured with the intention of providing an economic return equivalent to one Brookfield Class A Share due to each exchangeable share (i) being exchangeable at the option of the holder for one Brookfield Class A Share or its cash equivalent (the form of payment to be determined at the election of the Corporation), subject to certain limitations, and (ii) receiving distributions at the same time and in the same amounts as dividends on the Brookfield Class A Shares.

The business may seek to add duration and diversification to its investment portfolio by acquiring public and private assets across many asset classes, including, but not limited to, real estate, royalties, public securities, and private credit. These investments could be made in the open market or from the Corporation and its related party affiliate entities.

OPERATIONS

Below is an overview of our key lines of business:

*Annuities*

Annuities offer our policyholders a tax-deferred means of accumulating retirement savings, as well as a reliable source of income during the payout period. Our primary insurance products and coverages include:

• Fixed index annuities that allow policyholders to earn index credits based on the performance of a particular index without the risk of loss of their account value;

• Fixed rate annuities that include annual, multi-year rate guaranteed products and single premium deferred annuities;

• Pension risk transfer that allows corporate sponsors to transfer all or part of the risks associated with the sponsorship and administration of a pension plan, in particular, investment risk and longevity risk;

• Funding agreements are issued by certain of our insurance subsidiaries to special-purpose unaffiliated trusts in connection with our funding agreement-backed notes program; and

• Single premium immediate annuities that are purchased with one premium payment, providing periodic (usually monthly or annual) payments to the annuitant for a specified period.

*Property and Casualty*

Our primary insurance products and coverages include:

• Casualty lines that include a broad range of primary and excess casualty products, such as specialty casualty, construction defect, general liability, commercial multi-peril, workers compensation, product liability, environmental liability and auto liability;

70&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

• Specialty lines that include niche insurance coverages such as garage and inland marine and offer insurance programs and fronting solutions;

• Property lines that offer policyholders protection from personal and commercial property damages; and

• Run-off and other lines that primarily consist of discontinued lines previously underwritten by our insurance subsidiaries including professional liability, surety and homeowners.

*Life Insurance*

Our primary insurance products and coverages include:

• Whole life products that provide a guaranteed benefit upon the death of the insured in return for the periodic payment of a fixed premium over a predetermined period;

• Universal life insurance products that provide coverage through a contract that gives the policyholder flexibility in premium payments and coverage amounts; and

• Variable universal life products that provide insurance coverage on a similar basis as universal life, except that the policyholder bears the investment risk because the value of the policyholder's account balance varies with the investment experience of the securities selected by the policyholder held in the separate account.

OUTLOOK AND GROWTH INITIATIVES

![2025_Outlook_Growth_Initiatives_Wealth Solutions.jpg](bn-20251231_g11.jpg)

Our Wealth Solutions business seeks to match its insurance liabilities with a balanced portfolio of high-quality investments in order to generate attractive, risk-adjusted returns. In doing so, our Wealth Solutions business leverages the broader Brookfield ecosystem to opportunistically source new investments and deploy our capital in assets that match the long dated nature of our insurance liabilities. The Brookfield ecosystem provides us with access to a diverse mix of leading alternative investment strategies that we believe are well-suited for this purpose.

The combined business benefits from diversification of liability profiles, lowers the overall cost of funds through underwriting profits in property and casualty, and is structured to deliver enhanced risk-adjusted returns through a real-assets focused investment strategy.

Several key strategic initiatives were achieved in 2025, including receiving shareholder approval for the acquisition of Just Group in the U.K., entering the Japanese market, and making meaningful progress toward broader U.S. private wealth distribution.

Retail and institutional annuity sales totaled $20 billion for the year, increasing insurance assets to $143 billion, with 85% of annuities written during the year having a term of five years or longer.

We continued to improve the performance of our P&C business by focusing on a more targeted set of specialty lines. This drove a 73% increase in underwriting profitability over the prior year and contributed to a reduction in the overall cost of our insurance liabilities.

During the year, we deployed $13 billion into Brookfield-managed strategies across our investment portfolio at an average yield of 8.5%. We ended the year with $12.7 billion of IFRS capital, which earns $1.9 billion of annualized cashflows, supporting a 15% return on equity.

DE from our Wealth Solutions business was $1.7 billion, a $321 million increase from the prior year, supported by strong investment performance and continued expansion of the insurance asset base.

Invested insurance assets increased to $120 billion supported by the origination of retail and institutional annuity sales, and premiums collected from our property and casualty business. Gross inflows totaled $20 billion for the year, with 85% of annuities written during the year having a term of five years or longer.

The summary below provides a breakdown of spread on the business:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED DEC. 31, 2025 | **Full Year** | **Full Year** |
| Net investment income |  | 5.01% |
| Realized and unrealized gains on real asset strategies |  | 0.69% |

Invested insurance assets includes a portfolio of public equities, the appreciation on which is excluded from DE and the gross spread metrics above. DE excludes $607 million of unrealized gains earned over the year on our public equities, which will be recognized in DE when realized.

COMMON EQUITY

Common equity in our Wealth Solutions segment was $12.7 billion<sup>2</sup> as at December 31, 2025 (2024 – $10.9 billion), which includes distributable earnings retained in this business, mark-to-market movements on our investment portfolio and reserves and other adjustments required under IFRS.

Our capital in this business increased primarily due to the reinvestment of DE to support the continued growth of this business and contribution of a partial interest in our BAM shares in the second quarter which were partially offset by mark-to-market movements on our investment portfolio and reserves during the year.

<sup>1</sup> See definition in Glossary of Terms beginning on page 133.

<sup>2</sup> Our common equity in our Wealth Solutions business includes $4.2 billion of DE retained in this business, mark-to-market movements on our investment portfolio and reserves and other adjustments required under IFRS. In the second quarter of 2025, we transferred a 4% direct interest in BAM to our Wealth Solutions business, increasing our stake in BWS. On a combined basis with BWS, we hold a 73% ownership interest in BAM.

Renewable Power And Transition

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

• We own and operate renewable power, sustainable solutions and transition assets primarily through our 45% economic ownership interest<sup>1</sup> in BEP, which is listed on the NYSE and TSX and had a market capitalization of $20.5 billion as at December 31, 2025.

• BEP owns diverse and high-quality assets across multiple continents and technologies including hydroelectric, wind, utility-scale solar, distributed energy & sustainable solutions investments.

• We also enter into energy contracts, which are our contractual arrangements with BEP to purchase power generated by certain North American hydro assets at a fixed price that is then resold on a contracted or uncontracted basis.

OPERATIONS

*Hydroelectric*

• We operate and invest in 239 hydroelectric generating stations on 83 river systems in North America, Brazil and Colombia. Our hydroelectric operations have 8,496 megawatts ("MW") of installed capacity and annualized long-term average ("LTA")<sup>1</sup> generation of 22,097 gigawatt hours ("GWh") on a proportionate basis<sup>1</sup>.

*Wind*

• Our wind operations include 240 wind facilities globally with 16,753 MW of installed capacity and annualized LTA generation of 9,410 GWh on a proportionate basis<sup>1</sup>.

*Utility-scale Solar*

• Our utility-scale solar operations include 282 solar facilities globally with 13,993 MW of installed capacity and 5,789 GWh of annualized LTA generation on a proportionate basis<sup>1</sup>.

*Distributed Energy & Sustainable Solutions*

• Our distributed generation operation has 5,503 MW of installed capacity and annualized LTA generation of 534 GWh on a proportionate basis<sup>1</sup>.

• Our sustainable solutions portfolio includes a leading global nuclear technology services business and a portfolio of investments in carbon capture and storage capacity, agricultural renewable natural gas, materials recycling, and eFuels manufacturing capacity.

*Energy Contracts*

• Based on LTA, we purchase approximately 3,600 GWh of power from BEP each year pursuant to a long-term contract at a predetermined price, which represents 10% of BEP's power generation.

• The fixed price that we are required to pay BEP increases annually based on inflation, not to exceed 3%. In addition, from 2021 to 2025, the price gradually stepped down by $3 per megawatt hour ("MWh"), followed by a $5/MWh reduction in 2026. The contract expires in 2046 and provides us the right to terminate the agreement in 2036. Refer to Part 5 – Accounting Policies and Internal Controls for additional information.

• We sell the power into the open market and also earn ancillary revenues, such as capacity fees and renewable power credits, which provide us with increased participation in future increases or decreases in power prices.

OUTLOOK AND GROWTH INITIATIVES

![2025_Outlook_Growth_Initiatives_Renewable.jpg](bn-20251231_g12.jpg)

Revenues in our Renewable Power and Transition segment are 91% contracted with an average contract term of 13 years, on a proportionate basis, with pricing that is inflation linked. By combining this with a stable, low cost profile, we are able to achieve consistent growth year over year within our existing business. In addition, we consistently identify capital development projects that provide an additional source of growth. Our development pipeline in advanced stage represents approximately 85,000 MW of potential capacity globally. We expect to deliver $470 million to BEP's annualized FFO from our recently developed, under construction or construction-ready, and advanced stage development assets. We also have a strong track record of expanding our business through accretive acquisitions and will continue to seek out these opportunities.

We believe that the growing global demand for low-carbon energy, especially amongst corporate off takers, will lead to continued growth opportunities for us in the future. In 2026, we intend to remain focused on progressing our key priorities, which include surfacing margin expansion opportunities, progressing our development pipeline and assessing select contracting opportunities across the portfolio. We believe the investment environment for renewable power remains favorable and we expect to continue to advance our pipeline of acquisition opportunities.

SUMMARY OF OPERATING RESULTS

The following table disaggregates our share of FFO and common equity of entities in our Renewable Power and Transition segment. In addition, we provide the cash distributions received. We have provided additional detail, where referenced, to explain significant movements from the prior period.

| Cash distributions received |  | $**485** | $400 |  |  |  |

---

FFO of $584 million increased by $114 million from the prior year, primarily due to the commissioning of development assets across our portfolio, strong hydrology in Canada and Colombia, higher contributions from our global nuclear services business, and favourable results from our energy contracts. This was partially offset by lower hydrology in Brazil, net disposition activity, increased interest expense due to additional borrowings to finance ongoing capital projects, and higher management fees from the increased market capitalization at BEP.

<sup>2</sup> Brookfield's interest in BEP consists of 194.5 million redemption-exchange units, 76.2 million Class A limited partnership units, 4.0 million general partnership units, as well as 34.7 million Class A.2 exchangeable non-voting shares of BRHC (previously Class A shares of BEPC), together representing an economic interest of 45% in BEP. As at December 31, 2025, 10.1 million Class A shares of BEPC and 5.1 million LP units of BEP were held by wholly-owned subsidiaries of BWS. The Corporation and BWS agreed under a voting agreement that all decisions to be made by subsidiaries of BWS with respect to the voting of these Class A shares will be made jointly by mutual agreement. As a result of the paired share status of BN and BWS and our ownership of all the issued and outstanding BWS class C shares, the shareholders of BN and BWS will continue to benefit from the economic return of the transferred assets. See definition in Glossary of Terms beginning on page 133.

2. Includes incentive distributions paid to Brookfield of $145 million (2024 – $128 million) as the general partner of BEP.

3. Segment reallocation refers to realized disposition gains, net of NCI, included in BEP's operating FFO that we reclassify to realized disposition gains. This allows us to present FFO attributable to unitholders on the same basis as BEP in the table above.

BEP's FFO for the year was $1.3 billion, of which our share was $542 million. Generation in the year was 33,157 GWh, a 7% increase compared to the prior year. Generation in the year was 10% lower than the long-term average ("LTA")<sup>3</sup>, primarily as stronger hydrology in Colombia, was more than offset by weaker hydrology in Brazil, and lower wind and solar resources across our portfolio. Key variances for our operations are described below and on the following page.

*Hydroelectric*

FFO of $607 million in the current year increased by $96 million compared to the prior year primarily due to:

• higher revenue due to inflation indexation on our contracted generation across the business, and strong hydrology in Canada and Colombia; partially offset by

• lower hydrology in Brazil and unfavourable pricing on our uncontracted generation in Colombia.

*Wind*

FFO of $303 million in the current year decreased by $181 million compared to the prior year as:

• contributions from newly acquired and commissioned facilities, including our investments in a leading global renewables developer in France and an offshore wind portfolio in the U.K.; were more than offset by

• the absence of contributions from wind assets in the U.S., Portugal and Spain sold in the prior year; and

• the absence of a gain on the partial sale of a 850MW repowering project in the U.S. recognized in the prior year.

*Utility-Scale Solar* 

FFO of $345 million in the current year decreased by $4 million relative to the prior year as:

• contributions from newly acquired and commissioned facilities, including our investment in a leading global renewables developer in France and a fully integrated developer and operator of renewable power assets in the U.S.; and

• the recognition of tax benefits across our businesses; were more than offset by

• the absence of contributions from solar assets in Spain sold in the prior year.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;75

------

*Distributed Energy & Sustainable Solutions*

FFO of $614 million in the current year increased by $285 million relative to the prior year primarily due to:

• contributions from newly acquired and commissioned facilities, including our investment in a leading global renewables developer in France and a fully integrated developer and operator of renewable power assets in the U.S;

• higher contributions from our global nuclear services business, benefiting from tailwinds in the nuclear sector; and

• a gain on the majority sale of a North American distributed energy business in the fourth quarter of 2025; partially offset by

• the absence of contributions from a pumped storage operation in the U.K sold in the first quarter of 2025.

*Corporate*

The corporate FFO deficit of $535 million in the current year increased by $79 million compared to the prior year primarily due to additional corporate level borrowings to the support growth of the business, as well as higher management fees as a result of the higher market capitalization of BEP.

*ii.Energy Contracts*

During the year, we purchased 2,809 GWh (2024 – 3,442 GWh) from BEP at $72 per MWh (2024 – $74 per MWh) and sold the purchased generation at an average selling price of $83 per MWh (2024 – $65 per MWh). As a result, we recognized an FFO of $31 million.

*iii.Realized Disposition Gains*

Realized disposition gains of $11 million for the year are attributable to the partial sale of our India portfolio. Realized disposition gains of $7 million for the prior year are attributable to the sale of a portfolio of wind and solar assets in Spain and Portugal.

COMMON EQUITY

Common equity in our Renewable Power and Transition segment was $4.9 billion as at December 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024 – $4.5 billion), as contributions from FFO and the impacts of foreign exchange were partially offset by distributions to unitholders and the impacts of depreciation.

• These businesses provides critical infrastructure that provides telecommunications, fiber, and data storage services and are underpinned by both regulated and unregulated services, secured by long-term inflation-linked contracts.

OUTLOOK AND GROWTH INITIATIVES

![2025_Outlook_Growth_Initiatives_Infrastructure.jpg](bn-20251231_g13.jpg)

Our infrastructure business owns and operates assets that are critical to the global economy. Our expertise in managing and developing such assets make us ideal partners for our stakeholders. Our goal is to continue to demonstrate our stewardship of critical infrastructure which should enable us to participate in future opportunities to acquire high-quality infrastructure businesses.

Approximately 85% of FFO is supported by regulated or long-term contracted revenues which benefit from inflationary tariff increases, GDP growth and cash flow reinvestment. As a result, we are able to achieve consistent growth year over year within our existing business. We have also been able to identify capital development projects that provide an additional source of growth. At the end of 2025, total capital to be commissioned in the next two to three years is approximately $9.2 billion. Our backlog, coupled with inflation indexation and higher volumes from our GDP sensitive businesses, should result in strong same-store growth over the long-term.

SUMMARY OF OPERATING RESULTS

The following table disaggregates our share of FFO and common equity of entities in our Infrastructure segment. In addition, we provide the cash distributions received. We have provided additional detail, where referenced, to explain significant movements from the prior period.

---

FFO of $757 million increased by $190 million from the prior year, primarily due to inflation indexation on contracts, volume growth in our utilities, midstream and data businesses, and disposition gains from the sale of our Australian container terminal operations, as well as commissioning of capital projects across our businesses. This was partially offset by net disposition activity, increased interest expense related to additional borrowings to finance ongoing investments, the impact of foreign exchange, and higher management fees from the increased market capitalization at BIP.

<sup>1</sup> Brookfield's interest consists of 190.3 million redemption-exchange units, 1.4 million limited partnership units, 2.4 million general partnership units of BIP LP, as well as 13.0 million Class A.2 shares of BIHC (previously Class A shares of BIPC), together representing an economic interest of 26% in BIP. As at December 31, 2025, 3.3 million LP units of BIP were held by wholly-owned subsidiaries of BWS. As a result of the paired share status of BN and BWS and our ownership of all the issued and outstanding BWS class C shares, the shareholders of BN and BWS will continue to benefit from the economic return of the transferred assets. See definition in Glossary of Terms beginning on page 133.

2. Segment reallocation refers to certain items, net of NCI, included in BIP's FFO that we reclassify.

BIP's FFO for the year was $2.6 billion, of which our share was $603 million compared to $566 million in the prior year. Key variances for our operations are described below and on the following page.

*Utilities*

FFO in our utilities operations of $786 million was $26 million higher than the prior year, primarily due to:

• organic growth as a result of inflation indexation in revenues and rate base increases; partially offset by

• higher interest expense, primarily from additional borrowings to support capital projects; and

• the sale of our Mexican regulated natural gas transmission pipelines in the first quarter of 2025.

*Transport*

FFO from our transport operations of $1.1 billion was $80 million lower than the prior year, primarily as:

• strong growth due to inflationary increases in tariffs across the segment; and

• higher volume at our rail and toll roads; which were more than offset by

• the unfavourable impact of foreign currency translation due to the appreciation of the U.S. dollar against Brazilian real; and

• the sale of a partial interest in a subsidiary of our global intermodal logistics operation in the first quarter of 2025, the disposition of our Australian export terminal and our Australian container terminal operations in the third quarter of 2025, as well as the partial sale of our U.K. ports operation in the fourth quarter of 2025.

*Midstream*

FFO from our midstream operations of $668 million was $43 million higher than the prior year, primarily due to:

• higher volume and activity levels across our midstream operations, and

• contributions from the acquisition of a U.S. refined products pipeline system in the third quarter of 2025; partially offset by

• the sale of our U.S gas pipeline in the second quarter of 2025, and the partial sale of our North American gas storage business in the fourth quarter of 2025.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;79

------

*Data*

FFO from our data operations of $502 million was $169 million higher than the prior year, primarily due to:

• additional points-of-presence across our telecom tower and fiber operations and megawatts commissioned across our global data storage platform; and

• contributions from the acquisitions of our U.S. bulk fiber network in the third quarter of 2025.

*Corporate*

Corporate FFO deficit of $473 million was consistent with prior year primarily as higher contributions from non-core assets and decreased interest expense due to repayment on corporate level borrowings, were offset by higher management fees as a result of higher market capitalization at BIP.

ii. Realized Disposition Gains

Realized disposition gains of $154 million in the year were attributable to the sale of our Mexican natural gas transmission pipeline, our U.S gas pipeline, and our Australian container terminal operations.

COMMON EQUITY

Common equity in our Infrastructure segment was $2.3 billion as at December 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024 – $2.2 billion), as contributions from FFO and the impacts of foreign exchange were partially offset by distributions to unitholders and the impacts of depreciation. This equity is primarily comprised of our investments in PP&E and certain concessions, which are recorded as intangible assets. Our PP&E is recorded at fair value and revalued annually while concessions are considered intangible assets under IFRS Accounting Standards, and therefore recorded at historical cost and amortized over the life of the concession. Accordingly, a smaller portion of our equity is impacted by revaluation compared to our Real Estate and Renewable Power and Transition segments, where a larger portion of the balance sheet is subject to revaluation.

OUTLOOK AND GROWTH INITIATIVES

![2025_Outlook_Growth_Initiatives_Private Equity.jpg](bn-20251231_g14.jpg)Our Private Equity business segment seeks to increase the cash flows from our operations through acquisitions and organic growth opportunities. We believe our global scale and industry leading operations allow us to efficiently allocate capital around the world toward those sectors and geographies where we see the greatest opportunities to realize our targeted returns. We also actively seek to monetize business interests as they mature and reinvest the proceeds into higher yielding investment strategies, further enhancing returns.

Within our business services operations, our residential mortgage insurer continues to perform well, as new insurance premiums written increased compared to the prior year, supported by the introduction of new mortgage insurance products and improved homebuyer affordability. In our dealer software and technology services business, we are progressing planned modernization and technology upgrades to enhance the user experience and overall customer service levels. Costs associated with these modernization initiatives will continue to impact near-term financial performance but will position the business for long-term profitability.

Within our infrastructure services operations, performance at our lottery services operation was driven by improved margins, a favorable revenue mix, and the continued ramp-up of recent commercial wins. Our modular building leasing services maintained continued growth of value-added products and services. Our initiatives are to focus on accelerating growth and operational initiatives and to support profitability in the current environment.

Within our industrials operations, performance at our advanced energy storage operation continues to benefit from favorable mix due to the growing demand for higher margin advanced batteries and strong execution of commercial and operational initiatives. Our engineered components manufacturing operation had improved contribution, driven by new business wins, commercial actions and cost optimization initiatives. Our electric heat tracing systems manufacturer continues to benefit from durable aftermarket replacement demand across a large installed base. The business is off to a strong start, led by a newly strengthened management team and executing initiatives to streamline product portfolio, refine the go-to-market strategy and refocus the business on profitable, sustainable growth.

Geographically, we continue to be committed to taking a long-term view on the regions where we have an established presence and we are focusing efforts on accelerating growth initiatives.

FFO was $455 million in the current year. Excluding the impact of our reduced direct ownership in BBU<sup>2</sup>, realized disposition gains, and the contributions from the recognition of accumulated tax benefits at our advanced energy storage operation in industrials in the prior year, operating FFO decreased by $94 million. This was primarily as same-store growth from across our businesses and increased demand for higher margin advanced batteries at our advanced energy storage operation in industrials, was more than offset by net disposition activity in our business and infrastructure services operations throughout 2024, higher borrowing costs primarily associated with a special distribution from our advanced energy storage operation in the first quarter of 2025, and performance fees distribution to BAM from the increased market capitalization of BBU.

BBU generated $1.2 billion of FFO compared to $1.5 billion in the prior year, with our share excluding realized disposition gains being $386 million compared to $752 million in the prior year. Key variances for our operations are described on the following page.

<sup>1</sup> Brookfield's interest in BBU consists of 51.6 million redemption-exchange units, 0.4 million limited partnership units, four general partnership units, four special limited partnership units, as well as 36.9 million Class A shares in Brookfield Business Corporation ("BBUC"), together representing an economic interest of 43% in BBU. As at December 31, 2025, 43.3 million limited partnership units, and 10.3 million Class A shares of BBUC were held by wholly-owned subsidiaries of BWS. The Corporation and BWS agreed under a voting agreement that all decisions to be made by subsidiaries of BWS with respect to the voting of these Class A shares will be made jointly by mutual agreement. As a result of the paired share status of BN and BWS and our ownership of all the issued and outstanding BWS class C shares, the shareholders of BN and BWS will continue to benefit from the economic return of the transferred assets.

<sup>2</sup> In the fourth quarter of 2024, BWS acquired a $1 billion economic interest in BBU from the Corporation. On a combined basis, we hold a 68% ownership interest in BBU, which is held 43% directly in BBU and 25% through BWS.

<sup>3</sup> BBU pays a modest distribution as the majority of its FFO is reinvested within the business to further enhance value.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;83

------

*Business Services*

Business services generated FFO of $492 million. Excluding the impact of disposition gains, FFO decreased by $34 million compared to the prior year, primarily as:

• increased contributions at our construction operation; were more than offset by

• reduced contributions from the disposition of our road fuels operation in the prior year; and

• the absence of a distribution made by our entertainment operation in the prior year.

*Infrastructure Services*

Infrastructure services generated $295 million of FFO, an increase of $8 million compared to the prior year, primarily driven by improved margins at our lottery services operations, as well as a gain on the disposition of the shuttle tanker operation within our offshore oil services business in the first quarter of 2025, partially offset by decreased contributions from this business.

*Industrials*

Industrials generated $665 million of FFO. Excluding the impact of disposition gains and contributions from the recognition of accumulated tax benefits at our advanced energy storage operation in the prior year, FFO decreased by $55 million primarily as:

• increased demand for higher margin advanced batteries, as well as commercial and operational improvements at our advanced energy storage operation; and

• the contributions from the acquisition of our electric heat tracing systems manufacturer and our specialty consumables and equipment manufacturer in the first half of 2025; were more than offset by

• higher borrowing costs associated with a special distribution at our advanced energy storage operation in the first quarter of 2025; and

• a one-time write-down of an earn-out associated with the sale of our automotive aftermarket parts remanufacturer in the fourth quarter of 2025.

*Corporate*

Corporate FFO deficit decreased by $58 million compared to the prior year, primarily driven by decreased interest expense due to the repayment on corporate level borrowings.

*ii.Realized Disposition Gains*

Realized disposition gains of $69 million in the year are primarily attributable to the sale of the shuttle tanker operation within our offshore oil services business. Realized disposition gains of $199 million in the prior year were primarily due to the sale of our road fuels operation, aggregates production operation and graphite electrode operation.

COMMON EQUITY

Common equity in our Private Equity segment was $1.9 billion as at December 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024 – $1.9 billion), in line with the prior year as contributions from FFO were offset by the impacts of depreciation. The depreciable assets held in these operations are recorded at amortized cost, with depreciation recorded on a quarterly basis.

Real Estate

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

• Our Real Estate business owns and operates a global and diversified portfolio of premier office, dominant retail, as well as multi-family residential properties.

• Our capital in this business is held via our 100% ownership interest in BPG. BPG owns real estate assets directly as well as through private funds that are managed by our Asset Management business. Included in directly held assets is our North American residential development business.

• Our capital is invested across a differentiated portfolio that includes an irreplaceable collection of premier properties in global gateway cities that we expect to own long term ("super core"); high-quality assets in central locations with growing NOI ("core plus"); and select portfolios undergoing repositioning to enhance value, which we expect to monetize over the shorter term ("value add" and "opportunistic"). In addition, we operate a leading land development and homebuilding platform in North America ("North American Residential").

OPERATIONS

*Super Core*

• Our super core real estate portfolio includes our top 34 premier office complexes and retail properties. They generate long–dated, stable, inflation–protected cash flows. We create value by holding these investments long term and we continue to make them better with incremental investments over time.

• We own 16 premier office and ancillary mixed-use complexes that are located in the world's leading commercial markets of New York City, London, Toronto, Berlin, and Dubai, covering 35 million square feet of leasable space.

• We also own interests in and operate 18 irreplaceable malls totaling 24 million square feet of retail space and one of the most valuable retail centers of the world at the corner of 57<sup>th</sup> and Fifth Avenue in New York City.

• We develop properties on a selective basis; active development projects consist of two office sites, several multifamily buildings and one hotel site, totaling approximately 4 million square feet.

• We expect to hold a stake in these assets over the long-term, but may opportunistically monetize our interests through sales to third parties or transfer partial interests to our Wealth Solutions business to support its continued growth. Over the year, we transferred partial interests in six super core assets to our Wealth Solutions business.

*Core Plus*

• Our core plus real estate portfolio is a collection of 57 premier assets in central locations with growing NOI that we expect to hold for a defined period and monetize at attractive returns over time.

• We own an interest in and operate 30 premier office and ancillary mixed-use complexes that are centrally located in commercial markets including New York City, London, Toronto, Tokyo, and Perth, covering 21 million square feet of leasable space.

• We also own 27 high-quality retail centers with 27 million square feet of retail space in the U.S., which are 97% leased and generate substantial and consistent cash flows.

*Value Add*

• Our value add portfolio consists of 50 assets primarily located in secondary markets that we expect to reposition to enhance NOI and monetize for value over time.

• We own interests and operate office assets in 5 major cities in North America, consisting of 9 properties totaling 6 million square feet of leasable space.

• We also own 41 quality retail properties with 38 million square feet of space in the U.S., which are strong retail centers and generate substantial and consistent cash flows but are not considered dominant irreplaceable centers.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;85

------

*Opportunistic*

• Our opportunistic portfolio consists of 33 assets in dislocated markets, representing 1% of our total portfolio, that have limited capital at risk and the opportunity to realize incremental returns over time through strategic repositioning.

• We own interests and operate office assets in 8 major cities in North America and Australia, consisting of 23 properties totaling 11 million square feet of leasable space. Some of these properties are currently under development, such as 9 The Esplanade in the sought after landmark Elizabeth Quay precinct in Perth.

• We also own 10 retail properties with 10 million square feet of space in the U.S. They are 91% leased, but do not have the same long-term growth trajectory as our dominant retail centers.

*North American Residential*

OUTLOOK AND GROWTH INITIATIVES

![2025_Outlook_Growth_Initiatives_Real Estate.jpg](bn-20251231_g15.jpg)

Our Real Estate group creates value by acquiring best-in-class assets for value, and leveraging our core capabilities, including leasing, financing, development, design and construction, and property management, to grow cash flows, and actively recycling capital by upgrading our super core assets while repositioning and monetizing core plus, value-add and opportunistic investments to enhance shareholder returns. We deploy additional capital throughout our portfolio for planned capital expansion that should continue to increase earnings for the next several years as these projects are completed. Our development track record reflects on-time and on-budget completions. This includes development projects in progress across our premier office buildings, retail malls and mixed-use complexes located primarily in North America and Europe.

We have a positive outlook for our North American residential business, reflecting the significant progress we have made on strategic initiatives in recent years to scale and reposition the business to enhance our returns over the long-term.

SUMMARY OF OPERATING RESULTS

The following table disaggregates our share of NOI and common equity by strategy in our Real Estate segment to facilitate analysis of the year-over-year variances. We have provided additional detail, where referenced, to explain significant movements from the prior year:

Our Real Estate business continues to build momentum amid a broad-based global recovery. Operating fundamentals remain strong across our portfolio, with occupancy rates remaining high at 96% and 95% in our super core and core plus portfolios, respectively. BPG's NOI for the year was $3.1 billion compared to $3.4 billion in the prior year. Key variances for our operations are described below and on the following page.

*Super Core* 

NOI of $1.4 billion was $83 million lower than the prior year. Excluding the impact of the sales of partial interests in six super core retail assets, NOI increased by $25 million, primarily driven by growth in same-store NOI as a result of lease commencements and higher rents at certain office and retail properties.

*Core Plus*

NOI of $666 million was $13 million lower than the prior year, primarily as lease commencements and higher rents across retail properties, were more than offset by the timing of lease commencements at certain Australian office assets and the impact of dispositions.

*Value add*

NOI of $463 million was relatively consistent with the prior year.

*Opportunistic*

$251 million was $69 million lower than the prior year, primarily due to the impact of dispositions over the past year.

*North American Residential*

NOI of $357 million was $95 million lower than the prior year, as higher margin lot sales in Canada and lower costs incurred for property development services were more than offset by lower margin lot sales in the U.S.

COMMON EQUITY

Common equity in our Real Estate segment was $25.1 billion as at December 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024 – $23.1 billion). This represents a $2.0 billion increase, primarily due to higher valuations in our super core portfolio and capital investment to opportunistically repay debt and fund various investments, partially offset by dispositions across our portfolio, lower valuations on certain U.S. office properties in our value add portfolio, and the impact of foreign exchange.

Corporate Activities

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

• Our corporate activities support the overall business with a focus on prudent capital allocation that will compound value for our shareholders over the long-term.

• Corporate activities include, but are not limited to, supporting the growth in our Asset Management business, Wealth Solutions business and our Operating Businesses, and providing capital throughout the organization, when needed. In addition, we will make direct investments on an opportunistic basis.

• We also hold cash and financial assets as part of our liquidity management operations and enter into financial contracts to manage residual foreign exchange and other risks, as appropriate.

SUMMARY OF OPERATING RESULTS

The following table disaggregates FFO and common equity into the principal assets and liabilities within our Corporate Activities segment to facilitate analysis:

---

1. Includes $230 million of perpetual subordinated notes issued in November 2020 by a wholly owned subsidiary of Brookfield, included within non-controlling interest. FFO excludes preferred share distributions of $177 million (2024 – $176 million).

Corporate cash and other, net of working capital includes accounts receivable, accounts payable, other assets and other liabilities, inclusive of deferred tax assets and liabilities, as well as corporate cash and financial assets. Corporate financial assets are generally recorded at fair value with changes recognized through net income, unless the underlying financial investments are classified as fair value through other comprehensive income. Loans and receivables are typically carried at amortized cost. Corporate cash and other, net of working capital excludes our proportionate share of cash from our Asset Management business of $1.2 billion<sup>1</sup> (December 31, 2024 – $296 million), and $250 million of financial assets contributed to our Wealth Solutions business in the third quarter of 2025, which we consider to be part of our corporate liquidity and included as part of the common equity of our Asset Management and Wealth Solutions segments, respectively.

Corporate cash and other, net of working capital was in a liability position of $38 million as at December 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024 – asset position of $578 million), a decrease from the prior year primarily due to a higher cash balance in the prior year, as cash received from a non-recourse loan issued to a large institutional partner in December 2024 was used for share repurchases, and reinvestments into our operating businesses in the first half of 2025.

FFO from corporate cash and other, net of working capital, includes realized income and expenses from corporate cash and financial assets or liabilities in addition to corporate costs and cash taxes. During 2025, FFO of $155 million (2024 – $44 million) was generated as investment income on corporate cash and financial assets was partially offset by interest expense, corporate costs, and cash taxes. Corporate costs and normal course cash taxes were in line with the prior year.

Corporate borrowings are generally issued with fixed interest rates. Some of these borrowings are denominated in Canadian dollars and therefore the carrying value fluctuates with changes in the foreign exchange rate. A number of these borrowings have been designated as hedges of our Canadian dollar net investments within our other segments, resulting in the majority of the currency revaluation being recognized in other comprehensive income. The $742 million FFO deficit (2024 – $727 million) reported through corporate borrowings reflects the interest expense on our corporate borrowings.

<sup>1</sup>This is inclusive of our interest in BAM held through BWS.

88&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

The increase in deficit from the prior year was primarily attributable to relatively higher interest rates on new corporate debt issuances, partially offset by net commercial paper repayments.

Preferred equity is not revalued under IFRS Accounting Standards and is relatively consistent with prior year-end. We describe cash and financial assets, corporate borrowings and preferred equity in more detail within Part 4 – Capitalization and Liquidity.

Disposition gains from principal investments in the prior year relate to the sale of a portion of our interest in BAM, which was used to support the acquisition of AEL.

Capitalization and Liquidity

CAPITALIZATION

We review key components of our capitalization in the following sections. In several instances we have disaggregated the balances into the amounts attributable to our operating segments in order to facilitate discussion and analysis.

*Corporate Capitalization*<sup>1</sup> – reflects the amount of debt held in the Corporate Activities segment and our issued and outstanding common and preferred shares. Corporate debt includes unsecured bonds and draws on revolving credit facilities and the issuance of short-term commercial paper. As at December 31, 2025, our corporate capitalization was $68.1 billion (December 31, 2024 – $64.9 billion) with a debt to capitalization<sup>1,2</sup> of 21% (December 31, 2024 – 21%).

*Consolidated Capitalization*<sup>1</sup> – reflects the aggregate capitalization of wholly owned, partially owned, and managed entities that we consolidate in our financial statements. As at December 31, 2025, consolidated capitalization increased compared to prior year largely due to increased borrowings at our private equity and infrastructure businesses which increased by $30 billion, partially offset by lower borrowings at our real estate business which decreased by $7.6 billion. Much of the borrowings issued within our managed entities are included in our consolidated balance sheet notwithstanding that virtually none of this debt has any recourse to the Corporation.

The following table presents our capitalization on a corporate and consolidated basis:

1. Our commercial paper program is backed by our revolving credit facility, which matures in June 2030.

As at December 31, 2025, corporate borrowings included term debt of $14.4 billion (December 31, 2024 – $13.6 billion) which had an average term to maturity of 15 years (December 31, 2024 – 14 years). Term debt consists of public and private bonds, all of which are fixed rate and have maturities ranging from 2026 to 2080. These financings provide an important source of long-term capital and are appropriately matched to our long-term asset profile.

The increase in term debt compared to the prior year is mainly driven by the issuance of $500 million 2055 notes in the first quarter, $650 million 2036 notes in the third quarter, $255 million 2033 notes and $474 million 2055 notes in the fourth quarter of 2025, partially offset by the repayment of our $500 million notes that matured in January 2025, early retirement of our $620 million notes maturing in January 2026, and the repayment of $767 million of commercial paper.

We had no outstanding commercial paper and draws on our revolving facility as at December 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024 – $767 million of commercial paper outstanding). As at December 31, 2025, $169 million of the revolving credit facilities were utilized for letters of credit (December 31, 2024 – $39 million).

*Subsidiary Borrowings*

We endeavor to capitalize our perpetual affiliates to enable continuous access to debt capital markets, usually on an investment-grade basis, thereby reducing the demand for capital from the Corporation. Subsidiary borrowings include perpetual affiliates' recourse term debt, credit facility draws and outstanding commercial paper. These borrowings have no recourse to the Corporation.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;91

*Property-Specific Borrowings*

As part of our financing strategy, the majority of our debt capital is in the form of property-specific borrowings and project financings and is denominated in local currencies that have recourse only to the assets being financed and have no recourse to the Corporation or the relevant perpetual affiliate.

1. Includes a $1.0 billion non-recourse loan that was issued to a large institutional partner in December 2024.

2. Includes $40.7 billion (December 31, 2024 – $45.8 billion) of borrowings associated with real estate LP investments from our Asset Management segment.

Property-specific borrowings have increased by $24 billion since December 31, 2024, primarily due to new acquisitions and dividend recapitalizations at our infrastructure and private equity businesses. During 2025, our average cost of borrowing decreased from 6.8% to 6.3% as we were able to finance new acquisitions and complete a dividend recapitalization at a lower cost of borrowing due to reductions in base rates and credit spreads compared to 2024.

*Fixed and Floating Interest Rate Exposure*

Many of our borrowings, including all corporate borrowings recourse to the Corporation, are fixed rate, long-term financings. The remainder of our borrowings are at floating rates; however, from time to time, we enter into interest rate contracts to swap our floating rate exposure to fixed rates.

As at December 31, 2025, 82% of our share of debt outstanding, including the effect of swaps, was fixed rate. Accordingly, changes in interest rates are typically limited to the impact of refinancing borrowings at prevailing market rates or changes in the level of debt as a result of acquisitions and dispositions.

The following table presents the fixed and floating rates of interest expense:

*ii.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Preferred Equity*

Preferred equity represents permanent non-participating preferred shares that provide leverage to our common equity. The shares are categorized by their principal characteristics in the following table:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| AS AT DEC. 31<br>(MILLIONS) | Term | Average Rate | Average Rate | Amount | Amount |

---

1. Includes management share option plan and restricted stock plan.

The company holds 183.6 million Class A shares (December 31, 2024 – 157.2 million) purchased by consolidated entities in respect of long-term share ownership programs, which have been deducted from the total amount of shares outstanding at the date acquired. Diluted shares outstanding include 42.4 million (December 31, 2024 – 35.3 million) shares issuable in respect of these plans based on the market value of the Class A shares as at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, resulting in a net reduction of 141.2 million (December 31, 2024 – 121.9 million) diluted shares outstanding.

During 2025, 10.5 million options were exercised, of which 4.1 million and 0.2 million were issued on a net-settled and gross basis, respectively, resulting in the cancellation of 6.2 million vested options.

The cash value of unexercised options was $773 million as at December 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024 – $873 million) based on the proceeds that would be paid on exercise of the options.

As at March 13, 2026, the Corporation had outstanding 2,237,128,859 Class A shares and 85,120 Class B shares. Refer to Note 21 of the consolidated financial statements for additional information on equity.

LIQUIDITY

CORPORATE LIQUIDITY

We maintain significant liquidity at the corporate level. Our primary sources of liquidity, which we refer to as core liquidity<sup>1</sup>, consist of:

• cash and financial assets, net of other associated liabilities; and

• undrawn committed credit facilities.

We further assess overall liquidity inclusive of our Operating Businesses and our Wealth Solutions business because of their role in funding acquisitions both directly and through funds managed by BAM. On a group basis, as at December 31, 2025, we had deployable capital<sup>1</sup> of $188 billion, which included corporate liquidity, perpetual affiliate liquidity, and third-party commitments available for drawdown in private funds managed by BAM.

CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

The Corporation has very few non-discretionary capital requirements. Our largest normal course capital requirement are our debt maturities and commitments in real estate funds managed by our Asset Management business. Our next maturity is in June 2026 when $500 million of notes are due. Periodically, we will fund capital calls for our fund commitments, strategic acquisitions to expand our capabilities and seed new investment strategies.

At the perpetual affiliate level, the largest normal course capital requirements are debt maturities and the pro-rata share of private fund capital calls. New acquisitions are primarily funded by perpetual affiliates or through the private funds that are managed by BAM. We endeavor to structure these entities so that they are self-funding, preferably on an investment-grade basis, and in almost all circumstances do not rely on financial support from the Corporation.

In the case of private funds managed by BAM, the necessary equity capital is obtained by calling on commitments made by the limited partners in each fund, which include commitments made by our perpetual affiliates as well as the Corporation. As at December 31, 2025, the Corporation has the following commitments within flagship funds managed by BAM:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| AS AT DEC. 31, 2025<br>(MILLIONS) |  |  |
| AS AT DEC. 31, 2025<br>(MILLIONS) | **Total Commitment** | **Funded Amount** |
| Brookfield Strategic Real Estate Partners III | $2750 | $2750 |
| Brookfield Strategic Real Estate Partners IV | 3500 | 2935 |
| Brookfield Strategic Real Estate Partners V | 3000 | 304 |
| Oaktree Opportunities Fund XI | 750 | 638 |
| Oaktree Opportunities Fund XII | 796 | 219 |
|  | $**10796** | $**6846** |

---

In the case of perpetual affiliates, capital requirements are funded through their own resources and access to capital markets, which may be supported by us from time to time through participation in equity offerings or bridge financings.

At the asset level, we schedule ongoing capital expenditure programs to maintain the operating capacity of our assets at existing levels. We refer to this as sustaining capital expenditures. The sustaining capital expenditure programs are typically funded by, and represent a relatively small proportion of, the operating cash flows within each business. The timing of these expenditures is discretionary; however, we believe it is important to maintain the productivity of our assets in order to optimize cash flows and value accretion.

1. Corporate cash and financial assets includes $1.2 billion of our proportionate share of our Asset Management business' cash as at December 31, 2025 (2024 – $296 million). Proportionate share is inclusive of our stake held through our wealth solution business.

As at December 31, 2025, the Corporation's core liquidity was $5.9 billion, consisting of $2.7 billion in cash and financial assets and $3.2 billion in undrawn credit facilities. The Corporation's liquidity is readily available for use without any material tax consequences. We utilize this liquidity to support the activities of our perpetual affiliates and funding strategic transactions.

The Corporation has the ability to raise additional liquidity through the issuance of securities and the sale of holdings of listed investments within our perpetual affiliates, BAM and other investments. However, this is not included in our core liquidity as we are generally able to finance our operations and capital requirements through other means.

Corporate liquidity decreased by $281 million compared to the prior year primarily due to a higher cash balance in the prior year, as cash received from a non-recourse loan issued to a large institutional partner in December 2024 was used for share repurchases and reinvestments into our operating businesses in the first half of 2025. In addition, distributable earnings for the year were more than offset by reinvestment activities in our Asset Management, Wealth Solutions and Operating businesses, capital returned to shareholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases, as well as net financing activities.

During the year, we had net financing activities of $8 million related to the issuance of a $650 million 10-year senior unsecured note in August 2025, issuance of a C$1 billion dual-tranche senior note (~US $730M), net commercial paper repayments of approximately $770 million and repayments of a C$850 million maturing senior note (~US $620M) due January 2026.

1. Excludes lease obligations and provisions.

2. Represents the aggregate interest expense expected to be paid over the term of the obligations.

3.2026 maturities of $48 billion are expected to be primarily addressed through refinancings, repayments, and extensions.

4. Variable interest rate payments have been calculated based on current rates.

The recourse obligations, those amounts that have recourse to the Corporation, which are due in less than one year totaled $3.8 billion (2024 – $2.1 billion).

Commitments of $9.5 billion (2024 – $6.3 billion) represent various contractual obligations assumed in the normal course of business by our various operating subsidiaries. These included commitments to provide bridge financing and letters of credit and guarantees provided in respect of power sales contracts as well as capital expenditure commitments related to contracted project costs assumed as part of recent acquisitions. These commitments are intended to be funded through the cash flows of the company's subsidiaries.

The company and its consolidated subsidiaries execute agreements that provide for indemnifications and guarantees to third parties in transactions or dealings such as business dispositions, business acquisitions, sales of assets, provision of services, securitization agreements and underwriting and agency agreements. The nature of substantially all of the indemnification undertakings prevents the company from making a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential amount the company could be required to pay third parties, as in most cases the agreements do not specify a maximum amount, and the amounts are dependent upon the outcome of future contingent events, the nature and likelihood of which cannot be determined at this time. Neither the company nor its consolidated subsidiaries have made significant payments in the past, nor do they expect at this time to make any significant payments under such indemnification agreements in the future.

The company periodically enters into joint venture, consortium or other arrangements that have contingent liquidity rights in favor of the company or its counterparties. These include buy sell arrangements, registration rights and other customary arrangements. These agreements generally have embedded protective terms that mitigate the risk to us. The amount, timing and likelihood of any payments by the company under these arrangements is, in most cases, dependent on either future contingent events or circumstances applicable to the counterparty and therefore cannot be determined at this time.

We have also committed to purchase power produced by certain of BEP's hydroelectric assets as previously described on page [73](#i76e8aa92b6c84b2b84926f0e052a8335_172).

Part 5

Accounting Policies and Internal Controls

ACCOUNTING POLICIES, ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS

OVERVIEW

We are a publicly held Canadian corporation and, as such, we prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB").

We present our consolidated balance sheets on a non-classified basis, meaning that we do not distinguish between current and long-term assets or liabilities. We believe this classification is appropriate given the nature of our business strategy.

IFRS Accounting Standards use a control-based model to determine if consolidation is required. Therefore, we are deemed to control an investment if we: (1) exercise power over the investee; (2) are exposed to variable returns from our involvement with the investee; and (3) have the ability to use our power to affect the amount of the returns. Due to the ownership structure of many of our subsidiaries, we control entities in which we hold only a minority economic interest. Please refer to Part 2 – Review of Consolidated Financial Results for additional information.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to select appropriate accounting policies and to make judgments and estimates that affect the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates.

In making judgments and estimates, management relies on external information and observable conditions, where possible, supplemented by internal analysis, as required. These estimates have been applied in a manner consistent with the prior year and there are no known trends, commitments, events or uncertainties that we believe will materially affect the methodology or assumptions utilized in this report. As we update the fair values of our investment property portfolios quarterly, with gains reflected in net income, we discuss judgments and estimates relating to the key valuation metrics in Note 11 of the consolidated financial statements and below.

For further reference on accounting policies, including new and revised standards issued by the IASB and judgments and estimates, see our accounting policies contained in Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements.

ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

*i.Investment Properties*

We classify the majority of the property assets within our Real Estate segment as investment properties. Our valuations are prepared at the individual property level by internal investment professionals with the appropriate expertise in the respective industry, geography and asset type. These valuations are updated at each balance sheet date with gains or losses recognized in net income.

The majority of underlying cash flows in the models are comprised of contracted leases, many of which are long term. The models also include property-level assumptions for renewal probabilities, future leasing rates and capital expenditures. These are reviewed as part of the business planning process and external market data is utilized when determining the cash flows associated with lease renewals. Additionally, each year we sell a number of assets, which also provides support for our valuations, as we typically contract at prices comparable to IFRS values.

We test the outcome of our process by having a number of our properties externally appraised each year, including appraisals for super core office properties, at least on a three-year rotating basis. These appraisals, along with market comparables and third-party valuation metric analyses, are used to support our internally-prepared valuations; significant differences are reconciled as they arise. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we obtained 196 external appraisals of our operating properties representing $49 billion of assets; external appraisals were within 3% of management's valuations.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;99

The valuations are most sensitive to changes in cash flows, which include assumptions relating to lease renewal probabilities, downtime, capital expenditures, future leasing rates and associated leasing costs, discount rates and terminal capitalization rates. The key valuation metrics of our real estate assets as at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 are summarized below.

1. The change in discount rates and terminal capitalization rates compared to December 31, 2024 primarily relates to the sale of a U.S. office asset, a U.S. retail asset, and the reclassification to held for sale of a U.S. office asset.

2. The change in discount rates and terminal capitalization rates compared to December 31, 2024 primarily relates to the sale of five U.S. office assets and one U.S. retail asset.

3. The change in discount rates, terminal capitalization rates, and investment horizon compared to December 31, 2024 primarily relates to the deconsolidation of India REIT in Q1'25 and the sale of our Australian senior living portfolio.

The following table presents the impact on the fair value of our consolidated investment properties as at December 31, 2025 from a 25-basis point change to the relevant unobservable inputs in isolation and does not present the impact on the fair value from other factors such as changes in cash flows or inflation. For properties valued using the discounted cash flow method, the basis point change in valuation relates to a change in discount and terminal capitalization rates. For properties valued using the direct capitalization approach, the basis point change in valuation metrics relates to a change in the overall capitalization rate. These amounts represent the effects on all consolidated investment property assets within our consolidated financial statements on a pre-tax basis, including amounts attributed to non-controlling interests in our perpetual affiliates and private fund investments. The amounts attributable to shareholders may be significantly less than shown depending on ownership levels in the individual assets.

*ii. Revaluation Method for PP&E*

We revalue PP&E within our Renewable Power and Transition segment using the discounted cash flow ("DCF") method and our Infrastructure segment using DCF and the depreciated replacement cost ("DRC") methods. Our real estate hospitality assets are valued using the DRC method. PP&E within our Private Equity segment is recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Assets subject to the revaluation approach are revalued annually using a bottom-up approach, starting at the operating level with local professionals, and involving multiple levels of review, including by senior management. Changes in fair value are reported through other comprehensive income as revaluation surplus. Underlying cash flows used in DCF models are subject to detailed reviews as part of business planning, with discount rates and other key variable inputs reviewed for reasonability and the models reviewed for mathematical accuracy. Key inputs are frequently compared to third-party reports commissioned by the respective entities to assess reasonability. In addition, comparable market

100&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

transactions are analyzed to consider for benchmarking. Additional information about the revaluation methodology and current year results is provided below.

When determining the carrying value of PP&E using the revaluation method, the company uses the following assumptions and estimates: the timing of forecasted revenues; future sales prices and associated expenses; future sales volumes; future regulatory rates; maintenance and other capital expenditures; discount rates; terminal capitalization rates; terminal valuation dates; useful lives; and residual values. Determination of the fair value of PP&E under development includes estimates in respect of the timing and cost to complete the development. This process is further discussed in Part 2 – Review of Consolidated Financial Results.

*Renewable Power and Transition*

We use an unlevered 20-year DCF, with a terminal value that is built from the bottom-up and determined, where appropriate, using the Gordon Growth Model for perpetual assets, such as hydroelectric facilities. For assets with finite lives, such as wind and solar farms, the residual asset value is used based on the estimated remaining service life and the residual asset value is used to represent the terminal value.

Key model inputs include contract prices, forward merchant power prices, long-term average generation estimates, operating expenses, capital expenditures, tax rates, exit dates, terminal capitalization rates, and discount rates. A few of the critical assumptions are described in more detail below:

• Pricing forecasts consist of the following inputs:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Where power purchase agreements are in place, contracted power prices are utilized for the remaining term of these agreements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Thereafter, or to the extent that the underlying renewable power asset is not contracted, we estimate merchant pricing based on a mix of external data and our own estimates. Short-term merchant pricing is based on four years of externally sourced broker quotes in North America, regulated market operator and local market pricing in Europe, and local market pricing in South America. We ensure to link our short-term pricing by linear extrapolation to our view of long-term power pricing below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Long term pricing is driven by the economics required to support new entrants into the various power markets in which we operate. The year of new entry is viewed as the point when generators must build additional capacity to maintain system reliability and provide an adequate level of reserve generation with the retirement of older coal-fired plants and rising environmental compliance costs in North America and Europe, and overall increasing demand in Colombia and Brazil. Once the year of new entrant is determined, data from industry sources, as well as inputs from our development teams, is used to model the all-in cost of the expected technology mix of new construction, and the resulting market price required to support its development. Our long-term pricing view is anchored to the cost of securing new energy from renewable sources to meet future demand growth by the years 2030 to 2035 in North America, by 2030 in Colombia and by 2029 in Brazil. For the North American businesses, we have estimated our renewable power assets will contract at a discount to new-build wind, solar and battery prices (the most likely source of new renewable generation in those regions). In Brazil and Colombia, the estimate of future electricity prices is based on a similar approach as applied in North America using a forecast of the all-in cost of development.

• Energy generation forecasts are based on LTA for which we have significant historical data. LTA for hydroelectric facilities is based on third-party engineering reports commissioned during asset acquisitions and financing activities. These studies are based on statistical models supported by decades of historical river flow data. Similarly, LTA for wind facilities is based on third-party wind resource studies completed prior to construction or acquisition. LTA for solar facilities is based on third-party irradiance level studies at the location of our project sites during construction or acquisition.

• Capital expenditure forecasts rely on independent engineering reports commissioned from reputable third-party firms during underwriting or financings.

• Our discount rates, which are adjusted based on asset level and regional considerations, are compared to implied rates from recent market transitions where possible for reasonability.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;101

------

Review of our models also includes assessing comparable market transactions. We compare EBITDA multiples and value per megawatt at the asset level to recent market transactions; at the portfolio basis, we compare valuation multiples to our most comparable competitors in the market and the resulting book value of our equity after revaluation to our share price in the market. For example, we have noted from reviews of market transactions in the U.S. northeast that the multiples paid for the asset indicate that market participants likely share our view on escalating power prices in the region.

In 2025, the fair value of the PP&E in our Renewable Power and Transition segment increased by $2.1 billion, primarily attributable to new development projects de-risked with substantial construction progression as scheduled, higher power pricing across select markets and the expected growth in demand for renewable power.

The key valuation metrics of our hydroelectric, wind and solar generating facilities at the end of 2025 and 2024 are summarized below:

1. The terminal capitalization rate applies only to hydroelectric assets in North America and Colombia.

Terminal values are included in the valuation of hydroelectric assets in the U.S., Canada, and Colombia. For the hydroelectric assets in Brazil, cash flows have been included based on the duration of the authorization or useful life of a concession asset plus a one-time 30-year renewal term for the majority of the hydroelectric assets. The weighted-average remaining duration or useful life of a concession asset as at December 31, 2025, including a one-time 30-year renewal for applicable hydroelectric assets, is 30 years (2024 – 30 years). Consequently, there is no terminal value attributed to the hydroelectric assets in Brazil at the end of the authorization term.

The New York power contract is the only power contract that remains in place between the Corporation and BEP. Under the contract, we are required to purchase power that BEP generates at certain of its New York assets at a fixed price. Based on LTA, we purchase approximately 3,600 GWh of power from BEP each year pursuant to a long-term contract at a predetermined price, which represents 10% of BEP's power generation. The fixed price that we are required to pay BEP increases annually based on inflation, not to exceed 3%. In addition, from 2021 to 2025, the price gradually stepped down by $3/MWh a year, followed by a $5/MWh reduction in 2026. The contract expires in 2046 and provides us the right to terminate the agreement in 2036.

The contract is valued annually based on price curves as at year end incorporating revised discount rates as required. As at December 31, 2025, the contract was valued using weighted-average forward power price estimates of approximately $106/MWh in years 1-10 and $175/MWh in years 11-20, using a discount rate of approximately 6.7%.

*Infrastructure*

Our infrastructure assets, revalued using DCF models, are generally subject to contractual and regulatory frameworks that underpin the cash flows. We also include the benefits of development projects for existing in-place assets to the extent that they have been determined to be feasible, typically by external parties, and have received the appropriate approvals. We are unable to include the benefits of development projects within our business that are not considered improvements to existing PP&E.

The underlying cash flow models supporting the revaluation process include a number of different inputs and variables with risks mitigated through controls incorporated in the bottom-up preparation and review process. Inputs are reviewed for qualitative and quantitative considerations and the mechanical accuracy is tested by appropriate finance and investment professionals.

When assessing the reasonability of our DCF models, we determine whether there are comparable transactions that we can consider for the purposes of benchmarking. Metrics such as the implied current year or forward-looking EBITDA multiples are reviewed against market transactions and public companies to assess whether our valuations are appropriate. We also assess whether the inputs used in the models are consistent amongst asset classes and geographies, where applicable, or that asset specific differences are supportable considering transactions in a given asset class or market.

Additionally, as part of our private fund valuation process, we obtain third-party appraisals on our fund investments on a three-year rotating basis. These appraisals are not directly utilized in the financial statements, rather they are used to confirm that management's assumptions in determining fair value are within a reasonable range.

On an aggregate basis, the value of the appraised assets is greater than the book value because a significant portion of our infrastructure operations assets such as public service concessions are classified as intangible assets. These intangible assets are carried at amortized cost, subject to impairment tests, and are amortized over their useful lives. In addition, we have contracted growth projects within our businesses that cannot be included in IFRS fair value unless these relate to improvements on existing PP&E.

Within our Infrastructure segment, we reported valuation gains of $1.8 billion in 2025. The gain was primarily due to inflation indexation as well as strong underlying performance at a number of our businesses.

The key valuation metrics of our utilities, transport and midstream operations are summarized below:

---

| | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | Utilities | Utilities | Transport<sup>1</sup> | Transport<sup>1</sup> | Midstream<sup>2</sup> | Midstream<sup>2</sup> |
| AS AT DEC. 31 | **2025** | 2024 | **2025** | 2024 | **2025** | 2024 |
| Discount rate | **8% – 16%** | 8% – 15% | **9%** | 10% | **n/a** | 15% |
| Terminal value multiples | **15x** | 16x | **8x** | 9x – 20x | **n/a** | 8x – 10x |
| Investment horizon (years) | **10 – 20** | 10 – 20 | **10** | 10 | **n/a** | 1 – 2 |

---

1. The change in terminal capitalization multiples from prior year primarily relates to the deconsolidation of our U.K. ports operation, which is no longer included in the metrics.

2. The current and prior year reflects our North American gas storage business. As a result of an IPO in October 2025, our investment in this business is now valued using its share price.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;103

------

*Real Estate and Other*

Hospitality assets, primarily hotel and resort operations, are valued using the depreciated replacement cost method, which factors in age, physical condition and construction costs of the properties. Fair values of hospitality properties are also reviewed in reference to each asset's enterprise value determined using a discounted cash flow model. These valuations are generally prepared by external valuation professionals using information provided by management of the operating business. The fair value estimates for hospitality assets represent the estimated fair value of the PP&E of the hospitality business only and do not include any associated intangible assets. Hospitality assets are revalued annually, with changes in fair value reported through other comprehensive income as revaluation surplus.

*iii.Financial Instruments*

Financial assets, financial contracts and other contractual arrangements that are treated as derivatives are recorded at fair value in our financial statements and changes in their value are recorded in net income or other comprehensive income, depending on their nature and business purpose. The more significant and more common financial contracts and contractual arrangements employed in our business that are fair valued include: interest rate contracts, foreign exchange contracts and agreements for the sale of electricity. Financial assets and liabilities may be classified as Level 1, 2 or 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Refer to Note 6 Fair Value of Financial Instruments within the notes to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Estimates and assumptions used in determining the fair value of financial instruments are: equity and commodity prices; future interest rates; the credit worthiness of the company relative to its counterparties; the credit risk of the company's counterparties; estimated future cash flows; the amount of the liability and equity components of compound financial instruments; discount rates and volatility utilized in option valuations.

*iv.Inventory* 

The company estimates the net realizable value of its inventory using estimates and assumptions about future selling prices and future development costs.

*v.Other* 

Other estimates and assumptions utilized in the preparation of the company's consolidated financial statements are: the assessment or determination of net recoverable amount; oil and gas reserves; depreciation and amortization rates and useful lives; estimation of recoverable amounts of cash-generating units for impairment assessments of goodwill and intangible assets; ability to utilize tax losses and other tax measurements; fair value of assets held as collateral and the percentage of completion for construction contracts. Equity accounted investments, which follow the same accounting principles as our consolidated operations, include amounts recorded at fair value and amounts recorded at amortized cost or cost, depending on the nature of the underlying assets.

ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS

Management is required to make critical judgments when applying its accounting policies. The following judgments have the most significant effect on the consolidated financial statements:

*i.Control or Level of Influence* 

When determining the appropriate basis of accounting for the company's investees, the company makes judgments about the degree of influence that it has the ability to exert directly or through an arrangement over the investees' relevant activities. This may include the ability to elect investee directors or appoint management. Control is obtained when the company has the power to direct the relevant investing, financing and operating decisions of an entity and does so in its capacity as principal of the operations, rather than as an agent for other investors. Operating as a principal includes having sufficient capital at risk in any investee and exposure to the variability of the returns generated as a result of the decisions of the company as principal. Judgment is used in determining the sufficiency of the capital at risk or variability of returns. In making these judgments, the company considers the ability of other investors to remove the company as a manager or general partner in a controlled partnership. Refer to Part 2 – Review of Consolidated Financial Results for additional information.

104&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

*ii.Investment Properties*

When applying the company's accounting policy for investment properties, judgment is applied in determining whether certain costs are additions to the carrying amount of the property and, for properties under development, identifying the point at which practical completion of the property occurs and identifying the directly attributable borrowing costs to be included in the carrying value of the development property.

*iii.Property, Plant and Equipment* 

The company's accounting policy for its PP&E requires critical judgments over the assessment of carrying value, whether certain costs are additions to the carrying amount of the PP&E as opposed to repairs and maintenance, and for assets under development the identification of when the asset is capable of being used as intended and identifying the directly attributable borrowing costs to be included in the asset's carrying value.

For assets that are measured using the revaluation method, judgment is required when estimating future prices, volumes, discount and capitalization rates. Judgment is applied when determining future electricity prices considering broker quotes for the years in which there is a liquid market available and, for the subsequent years, our best estimate of electricity prices from renewable sources that would allow new entrants into the market.

*iv.Identifying Performance Obligations for Revenue Recognition*

Management is required to identify performance obligations relating to contracts with customers at the inception of each contract. IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers requires a contract's transaction price to be allocated to each distinct performance obligation when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Judgment is used when assessing the pattern of delivery of the product or service to determine if revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time. For certain service contracts recognized over time, judgment is required to determine if revenue from variable consideration such as incentives, claims and variations from contract modifications has met the required probability threshold to be recognized.

Management also uses judgment to determine whether contracts for the sale of products and services have distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately or as a single performance obligation. Goods and services are considered distinct if: (1) a customer can benefit from the good or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer; and (2) the entity's promise to transfer the good or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract.

Additional details about revenue recognition policies across our operating segments are included in Note 3 of the consolidated financial statements.

*v.Indicators of Impairment* 

Judgment is applied when determining whether indicators of impairment exist when assessing the carrying values of the company's assets, including: the determination of the company's ability to hold financial assets; the estimation of a cash-generating unit's future revenues and direct costs; the determination of discount and capitalization rates; and when an asset's carrying value is above the value derived using publicly traded prices which are quoted in a liquid market.

*vi.Income Taxes* 

The company makes judgments when determining the future tax rates applicable to subsidiaries and identifying the temporary differences that relate to each subsidiary. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply during the period when the assets are realized or the liabilities settled, using the tax rates and laws enacted or substantively enacted at the consolidated balance sheet dates. The company measures deferred income taxes associated with its investment properties based on its specific intention with respect to each asset at the end of the reporting period. Where the company has a specific intention to sell a property in the foreseeable future, deferred taxes on the building portion of an investment property are measured based on the tax consequences that would follow the disposition of the property. Otherwise, deferred taxes are measured on the basis that the carrying value of the investment property will be recovered substantially through use.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;105

*vii.Other* 

Other critical judgments include the determination of effectiveness of financial hedges for accounting purposes, the likelihood and timing of anticipated transactions for hedge accounting and the determination of functional currency.

CONSOLIDATION UNDER IFRS ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

As a Canadian domiciled public corporation, we report under IFRS Accounting Standards, while other issuers that may be considered peers report under U.S. GAAP. These GAAPs are aligned in many areas, but as it relates to asset management and investment companies, there is a significant difference between IFRS and U.S. GAAP Accounting Standards. Under IFRS Accounting Standards, while investment companies can account for their investments at fair value and report them on one line in their balance sheet on a net basis, a parent of an investment company cannot maintain that accounting and must look to whether it controls the underlying investments individually. For issuers under U.S. GAAP, investment companies can use the same treatment as in IFRS Accounting Standards but the parent of an investment company would keep the same reporting as the subsidiary investment company. Therefore, the same investment could be fully consolidated under IFRS Accounting Standards or shown as one line on a net basis under U.S. GAAP.

IFRS Accounting Standards use a control-based model to determine if consolidation is required. Therefore, we are deemed to control an investment if we: (1) exercise power over the investee; (2) are exposed to variable returns from our involvement with the investee; and (3) have the ability to use our power to affect the amount of the returns. Due to the ownership structure of many of our subsidiaries, we control entities in which we hold only a minority economic interest. Please refer to Part 2 – Review of Consolidated Financial Results for additional information. Our consolidation conclusions may differ from certain other issuers who report under U.S. GAAP as they are required to evaluate consolidation requirements using a voting interest model or a variable interest model depending on the circumstances.

Part 6

Business Environment and Risks

For purposes of Part 6 of this Report, unless the context requires otherwise, references to the "company", "we", "us" or "our" refers to Brookfield Corporation, its consolidated subsidiaries (including our Asset Management business), BWS and Oaktree.

This section contains a review of certain aspects of the business environment and risks that could materially adversely impact our business, performance, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and the value of our securities. Additional risks and uncertainties not previously known to the company, or that the company currently deems immaterial, may also impact our operations and financial results.

*a) Volatility in the Trading Price of Our Class A Shares*

*The trading price of our Class A shares is subject to volatility due to market conditions and other factors and cannot be predicted.*

Our shareholders may not be able to sell their Class A shares at or above the price at which they purchased such shares due to trading price fluctuations in the capital markets. The trading price could fluctuate significantly in response to factors both related and unrelated to our operating performance and/or future prospects, including, but not limited to: (i) variations in our operating results and financial condition; (ii) actual or prospective changes in government laws, rules or regulations affecting our businesses; (iii) material announcements by us, our affiliates or our competitors; (iv) the general state of the securities markets; (v) market conditions and events specific to the industries in which we operate; (vi) changes and developments in general economic, political, or social conditions, including as a result of pandemics/epidemics and related economic disruptions; (vii) changes in the values of our investments (including in the market price of our listed affiliates) or changes in the amount of distributions, dividends or interest paid in respect of investments; (viii) differences between our actual financial and operating results and those expected by investors and analysts; (ix) changes in analysts' recommendations or earnings projections; (x) changes in the extent of analysts' interest in covering the company and its listed affiliates; (xi) the depth and liquidity of the market for our Class A shares; (xii) dilution from the issuance of additional equity, including as a result of exchanges or additional issuances of shares exchangeable for Class A shares such as class A exchangeable voting shares of BWS ("BWS exchangeable shares"); (xiii) investor perception of our businesses and the industries in which we operate; (xiv) investment restrictions; (xv) our dividend policy; (xvi) the departure of key executives; (xvii) sales of Class A shares by senior management or significant shareholders; and (xviii) the materialization of other risks described in this section.

*b) Reputation*

*Actions or conduct that have a negative impact on investors' or stakeholders' perception of us could adversely impact our ability to attract and/or retain investor capital and generate fee revenue.*

The growth of our Asset Management business relies on continuous fundraising for various private and public investment products, and retention of capital raised from third-party investors. We depend on our business relationships and our global reputation for integrity and high-caliber asset management services to attract and retain investors and advisory clients, and to pursue investment opportunities for us and the public and private entities managed by our Asset Management business. Our business relationships and reputation could be negatively impacted by a number of factors including poor performance; actual, potential or perceived conflicts of interest that are not adequately addressed; misconduct or alleged misconduct by employees; rumors or innuendos; or failed or ineffective implementation of new investments or strategies. If we are unable to continue to raise and retain capital from third-party investors, either privately, publicly or both, or otherwise are unable to pursue our investment opportunities, this could materially reduce our revenue and cash flows and adversely affect our financial condition.

Poor performance of any kind could damage our reputation with current and potential investors in managed entities, making it more difficult to raise new capital. Investors may decline to invest in current and future managed entities and may withdraw their investments from managed entities as a result of poor performance in the entity in which they are

108&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

invested, and investors in private funds may demand lower fees for new or existing funds, all of which would decrease our revenue.

Our Asset Management business, as a global alternative asset manager with various lines of business and investment products, some of which have overlapping mandates, may be subject to a number of actual, potential or perceived conflicts of interest. These conflicts may be magnified for an asset manager that has many different capital sources available to pursue investment opportunities, including investor capital and the company's own capital. In addition, the senior management team of the company and its affiliates have their own capital invested in Class A shares, directly and indirectly, and may have financial exposures with respect to their own investments which could lead to potential conflicts if such investments are similar to those made by the company or on behalf of investors in entities managed by our Asset Management business.

In addressing these conflicts, we have implemented a variety of policies and procedures; however, there can be no assurances that these will be effective at mitigating actual, potential or perceived conflicts of interest in all circumstances, or will not reduce the positive synergies that we seek to cultivate across our businesses. It is also possible that actual, potential or perceived conflicts of interest, if not properly addressed, could give rise to investor dissatisfaction, litigation, regulatory enforcement actions or other detrimental outcomes.

Appropriately dealing with conflicts of interest for an asset manager is a priority and our reputation could be damaged if we fail, or appear to fail, to deal appropriately with actual, potential or perceived conflicts of interest. Asset manager conflicts are subject to enhanced regulatory scrutiny in the markets in which we operate and in the U.S. in particular. Such regulatory scrutiny can lead to fines, penalties and other negative consequences. Regulatory scrutiny of, or litigation in connection with, conflicts of interest could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, financial condition or results of operations in a number of ways, including an inability to adequately capitalize existing managed entities or raise new managed entities, including private funds, and a reluctance of counterparties to do business with us. For information regarding conflicts of interests between the businesses within our asset management operations that operate on opposite sides of an information barrier, see Item (v) herein.

Our reputation could also be negatively impacted if there is misconduct or alleged misconduct by our personnel, the personnel of our Asset Management business or those of our listed affiliates or portfolio companies in which we and managed entities invest, including historical misconduct prior to the investment. Risks associated with misconduct at our portfolio companies is heightened in cases where we do not have legal control or significant influence over a particular portfolio company or are not otherwise involved in actively managing a portfolio company. In such situations, given our ownership position and affiliation with the portfolio company, we may still be negatively impacted from a reputational perspective through this association. In addition, even where we have control over a portfolio company, if it is a newly acquired portfolio company that we are in the process of integrating then we may face reputational risks related to historical or current misconduct or alleged misconduct at such portfolio company for a period of time. We may also face increased risk of misconduct to the extent our capital allocated to emerging markets and distressed companies increases. If we face allegations of improper conduct by private litigants or regulators, whether the allegations are valid or invalid or whether the ultimate outcome is favorable or unfavorable to us, such allegations may result in negative publicity and press speculation about us, our investment activities or the asset management industry in general, which could harm our reputation and may be more damaging to our business than to other types of businesses.

We are subject to a number of obligations and standards arising from our Asset Management business and our authority over the assets we manage. The violation of these obligations and standards by any of our employees may adversely affect our partners and our business and reputation. Our business often requires that we deal with confidential matters of great significance to the companies in which we may invest and to other third parties. If our employees were to improperly use or disclose confidential information, or a security breach results in an inadvertent disclosure of such information, we could suffer serious harm to our reputation, financial position and current and future business relationships. It is not always possible to detect or deter employee misconduct or security breaches, and the precautions we take in this regard may not be effective.

Implementation of new investment and growth strategies involves a number of risks that could result in losses and harm to our professional reputation, including the risk that the expected results are not achieved, that new strategies are not appropriately planned for or integrated, that new strategies may conflict with, detract from or compete against our existing businesses, and that the investment process, controls and procedures that we have developed will prove insufficient or

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;109

------

inadequate. Furthermore, our strategic initiatives may include joint ventures, in which case we will be subject to additional risks and uncertainties in that we may be dependent upon and subject to liability, losses or reputational damage relating to systems, controls and personnel that are not under our complete control or under the control of another.

In addition to impacting the ability of our Asset Management business to raise and retain third-party capital and pursue investment opportunities, certain of the risks identified herein that may have a negative impact on our reputation also could, in extreme cases, result in the removal of our asset manager as general partner or an acceleration of the liquidation date of the private funds that are managed by it. The governing agreements of the private funds provide that, subject to certain conditions (which may, particularly in the case of a removal as general partner, include final legal adjudications of the merits of the particular issue), third-party investors in these funds will have the right to remove the asset manager as the general partner or to accelerate the liquidation date of the fund. Additionally, at any time, investors may terminate a fund and accelerate the liquidation date upon the vote of a super-majority of investors in such fund. A significant negative impact to our reputation would be expected to increase the likelihood that investors could seek to terminate a private fund. This effect would be magnified if, as is often the case, an investor is invested in more than one fund. Such an event, were it to occur, would result in a reduction in the fees earned from such fund, particularly if our Asset Management business is unable to maximize the value of the fund's investments during the liquidation process or in the event of the triggering of a "clawback" for fees already paid out to it as general partner.

*c) Asset Management* 

*Growth in fee-bearing capital could be adversely impacted by unsuccessful product development or marketing efforts. In addition, investment returns could be lower than target returns due to unsuccessful allocation of capital or unsuccessful investment management.* 

Our Asset Management business depends on its ability to fundraise third-party capital, deploy that capital effectively, and produce targeted investment returns.

The ability to raise third-party capital depends on a number of factors, including many that are outside the control of the asset manager, such as the general economic environment and the number of other investment funds being raised at the same time by competitors. Investors may reduce (or even eliminate) their investment allocations to alternative investments, including closed-ended private funds. Investors that are required to maintain specific asset class allocations within their portfolio may be required to reduce their investment allocations to alternative investments, particularly during periods when other asset classes such as public securities are decreasing in value. In addition, investors may prefer to insource and make direct investments; therefore, becoming competitors and ceasing to be clients and/or make new capital commitments.

Competition from other asset managers for raising public and private capital is intense, with competition based on a variety of factors, including investment performance, the quality of service provided to investors, the quality and availability of investment products, marketing efforts, investor liquidity and willingness to invest, and reputation. Poor investment performance could hamper the ability of our Asset Management business to compete for these sources of capital or force it to reduce management fees. Existing investors and potential investors continually assess investment performance and the ability to raise capital for existing and future funds depends on the relative and absolute performance of funds managed by our Asset Management business. If poor investment returns or changes in investment mandates prevent our asset manager from raising further capital from existing partners, it may need to identify and attract new investors in order to maintain or increase the size of private funds, and there are no assurances that it will be able to find new investors. Further, as competition and disintermediation in the asset management industry increases, our Asset Management business may face pressure to reduce or modify asset management fees, including base management fees and/or carried interest, or modify other terms governing its current asset management fee structure, in order to attract and retain investors.

The successful execution of our investing strategy is uncertain as it requires suitable opportunities, careful timing and business judgment, as well as the resources to complete asset purchases and restructure them, if required, notwithstanding difficulties experienced in a particular industry.

There is no certainty that we will be able to identify suitable or sufficient opportunities that meet our investment criteria and be able to acquire additional high-quality assets at attractive prices to supplement our growth in a timely manner, or at all. In pursuing investment opportunities and returns, we and the entities managed by our asset manager face competition

110&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

from other investment managers and investors worldwide. Each of our businesses is subject to competition in varying degrees and our competitors may have certain competitive advantages over us when pursuing investment opportunities. Some of our competitors may have higher risk tolerances, different risk assessments, lower return thresholds, a lower cost of capital, or a lower effective tax rate (or no tax rate at all), all of which could allow them to consider a wider variety of investments and to bid more aggressively than us for investments. We may lose investment opportunities in the future if we do not match investment prices, structures and terms offered by our competitors, some of whom may have synergistic businesses which allow them to consider bidding a higher price than we can reasonably offer. While we attempt to deal with competitive pressures by leveraging our asset management strengths and operating capabilities and compete on more than just price, there is no guarantee these measures will be successful, and we may have difficulty competing for investment opportunities, particularly those offered through auction or other competitive processes. If our Asset Management business is unable to successfully raise, retain, and deploy third-party capital into investments, it may be unable to collect management fees, carried interest or transaction fees, which would materially reduce our revenue and cash flows and adversely affect our financial condition.

Our approach to investing often entails adding assets to our existing businesses when the competition for assets is weakest; typically, when depressed economic conditions exist in the market relating to a particular entity or industry. Such an investing style carries with it inherent risks when investments are made in either markets or industries that are undergoing some form of dislocation. We may fail to value opportunities accurately or to consider all relevant factors that may be necessary or helpful in evaluating an opportunity, may underestimate the costs necessary to bring an acquisition up to standards established for its intended market position, may be exposed to unexpected risks and costs associated with our investments, including risks arising from alternative technologies that could impair or eliminate the competitive advantage of our business in a particular industry, and/or may be unable to quickly and effectively integrate new acquisitions into existing operations or exit from the investment on favorable terms. In addition, liabilities may exist that we or managed entities do not discover in due diligence prior to the consummation of an acquisition, or circumstances may exist with respect to the entities or assets acquired that could lead to future liabilities and, in each case, we or the managed entities may not be entitled to sufficient, or any, recourse against the contractual counterparties to an acquisition.

The credit strategies of our Asset Management business offer a broad range of strategies to investors. Similar to other private funds managed by us across different strategies, our asset managers that pursue credit strategies earn base management fees and, in certain cases, carried interest on funds and separate accounts that invest in its credit strategies. Cyclicality is important to credit strategies and weak economic environments have tended to afford some of the best investment opportunities and best relative investment performance to such strategies. Any prolonged economic expansion or recession could have an adverse impact on certain credit strategies and materially affect the ability to deliver attractive investment returns for clients or generate incentive or other income in respect of those strategies.

We generally pursue investment opportunities that involve business, regulatory, legal and other complexities. Our tolerance for complexity presents risks, as such transactions can be more difficult, expensive and time-consuming to finance and execute, and have a higher risk of execution failure. It can also be more difficult to manage or realize value from the assets acquired in such transactions and such transactions sometimes entail a higher level of regulatory scrutiny or a greater risk of contingent liabilities.

At times, our asset manager makes investments (for one or more funds or managed entities) in companies that we do not control. These investments are subject to the risk that the company in which the investment is made may make business, financial or management decisions with which we do not agree or that the majority stakeholders or the management of the company may take risks or otherwise act in a manner that does not serve our interests.

Certain investments may be concentrated in particular asset types or geographic regions, which could exacerbate any negative performance of one or more managed entities to the extent those concentrated investments are in assets or regions that experience market dislocation. In addition, certain funds hold publicly traded securities the price of which will be volatile and are likely to fluctuate due to a number of factors beyond our asset manager's control, including actual or anticipated changes in the profitability of the issuers of such securities; general economic, social, or political developments; changes in industry conditions; changes in governance regulation; inflation; the general state of the securities markets; and other material events.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;111

------

The failure of a newly acquired business to perform according to expectations could have a material adverse effect on our assets, liabilities, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Alternatively, we may be required to sell a business before it has realized our expected level of returns for such business.

If any of the investments managed by our asset manager perform poorly or experience prolonged periods of volatility, or if the capital is not deployed effectively, its fee-based revenue, cash available for distribution and/or carried interest would decline, negatively impacting our earnings. Moreover, we could experience losses on our capital invested in funds managed by our asset manager. Accordingly, our expected returns on these investments may be less than we have assumed in forecasting the value of our business.

*d) Laws, Rules and Regulations*

*We are subject to numerous laws, rules, and regulatory requirements which may impact our business, including resulting in financial penalties, loss of business, and/or damage to our reputation in instances of non-compliance.*

There are many laws, governmental rules and regulations and listing exchange rules that apply to us, our affiliates, our assets and our businesses. Changes in these laws, rules and regulations, or their interpretation by governmental agencies or the courts, could adversely affect our business, assets or prospects, or those of our affiliates, customers, clients or partners. The failure of the company, our listed affiliates, or entities managed by our asset management company to comply with these laws, rules and regulations, or with the rules and registration requirements of the respective stock exchanges on which we and they are listed, could adversely affect our reputation and financial condition.

Our Asset Management business, including our investment advisory and broker-dealer business, is subject to substantial and increasing regulatory compliance obligations and oversight, and this higher level of scrutiny may lead to more regulatory enforcement actions. There continues to be uncertainty regarding the appropriate level of regulation and oversight of asset management businesses in a number of jurisdictions in which we operate. The financial services industry has been the subject of heightened scrutiny and enforcement actions. Regulatory investigations and/or enforcement actions by regulators could have a material adverse effect on our business and/or reputation. In addition, the introduction of new legislation and increased regulation may result in increased compliance costs and could materially affect the manner in which we conduct our business and adversely affect our profitability. Although there may be some areas where governments in certain jurisdictions propose deregulation, it is difficult to predict the timing and impact of any such deregulation, and we may not materially benefit from any such changes.

Our Asset Management business is not only regulated in the U.S., but also in other jurisdictions where we conduct operations including, but not limited to, the E.U., the U.K., Canada, Brazil, Colombia, Australia, India and South Korea. Similar to the environment in the U.S., the current environment in jurisdictions outside the U.S. in which we operate has become subject to further regulation. Governmental agencies around the world have proposed or implemented a number of initiatives and additional rules and regulations that could adversely affect our Asset Management business, and governmental agencies may propose or implement further rules and regulations in the future. These rules and regulations may impact how managed entities are marketed in these jurisdictions and introduce compliance obligations with respect to disclosure and transparency, as well as restrictions on investor participation and distributions. Such regulations may also prescribe certain capital requirements on managed entities, and conditions on the leverage managed entities may employ and the liquidity these managed entities must have. Compliance with additional regulatory requirements will impose additional restrictions and expenses for us and could reduce our operating flexibility and fundraising opportunities.

Our broker-dealer business is regulated by the SEC, the various Canadian provincial securities commissions, as well as self-regulatory organizations, including the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority in the U.S. These regulatory bodies may conduct administrative or enforcement proceedings that can result in censure, fine, suspension or expulsion of a broker-dealer, its directors, officers or employees. Such proceedings, whether or not resulting in adverse findings, can require substantial expenditures and can have an adverse impact on the reputation of a broker-dealer.

The advisors of certain managed entities are registered as investment advisers with the SEC. Registered investment advisers are subject to the requirements and regulations of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, which grants U.S. supervisory agencies broad administrative powers, including the power to limit or restrict the carrying on of business for failure to comply with laws or regulations. If such powers are exercised, the possible sanctions that may be imposed include the suspension of individual employees, limitations on the activities in which the investment adviser may engage, suspension or revocation of the investment adviser's registration, censure and fines. Compliance with these requirements

112&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

and regulations results in the expenditure of resources, and a failure to comply could result in investigations, financial or other sanctions, and reputational damage.

The Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "40 Act") and the rules promulgated thereunder provide certain protections to investors and impose certain restrictions on entities that are deemed "investment companies" under the 40 Act. We are not currently, nor do we intend to become, an investment company under the 40 Act. To ensure that we are not deemed to be an investment company, we may be required to materially restrict or limit the scope of our operations or plans and the types of acquisitions that we may make, and we may need to modify our organizational structure or dispose of assets that we would not otherwise dispose of. If we were required to register as an investment company, we would face severe limitations on the operation of our business. Among other things, we would be prohibited from engaging in certain business activities (or have conditions placed on our business activities), face restrictions on engaging in transactions with affiliated entities and issuing certain securities or engaging in certain types of financings, be restricted with respect to the amount and types of borrowings we are permitted to obtain, be required to limit the amount of investments that we make as principal, and face other limitations on our activities.

Our Asset Management business has and may become subject to additional regulatory and compliance requirements as it expands its product offerings and investment platform which likely will carry additional legal and compliance costs, as well as additional operating requirements that may also increase costs.

We acquire and develop primarily insurance, renewable power and transition, infrastructure, business services, real estate, and industrial assets. In doing so, we must comply with extensive and complex municipal, state or provincial, national and international laws and regulations. These laws and regulations can result in uncertainty and delays, and impose additional costs, which may adversely affect our results of operations. Changes in these laws and regulations may negatively impact us and our businesses or may benefit our competitors and their businesses.

Additionally, liability under such laws, rules and regulations may occur without our fault. In certain cases, parties can pursue legal actions against us to enforce compliance as well as seek damages for non-compliance or for personal injury or property damage. Our insurance may not provide sufficient coverage in the event that a successful claim is made against us.

*e) Governmental Investigations, Sanctions and Anti-Bribery and Corruption*

*Federal, state and foreign anti-bribery and corruption and trade sanctions laws and restrictions on foreign direct investment applicable to us and our operating businesses create the potential for significant liabilities and penalties, the inability to complete transactions, imposition of significant costs and burdens, and reputational harm and we may also be subject to various governmental investigations.*

We are from time to time subject to various governmental investigations, audits and inquiries, both formal and informal. These investigations, regardless of their outcome, can be costly, divert management attention and damage our reputation. The unfavorable resolution of such investigations could result in criminal liability, fines, penalties or other monetary or non-monetary sanctions and could materially affect our business or results of operations.

We are subject to a number of laws and regulations governing payments and contributions to public officials or other third parties both domestically and in respect of operations abroad, including but not limited to the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (the "FCPA"), various federal and state corruption laws, and similar laws in non-U.S. jurisdictions, such as the U.K. Bribery Act 2010, the *Canadian Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act* ("CFPOA") and Part IV of the *Criminal Code* (Canada), the Brazilian Clean Companies Act, the Australian Criminal Code Act 1995, the Indian Prevention of Corruption Act, and the Bermudian Bribery Act 2016. This global focus on anti-bribery and corruption enforcement may also lead to more investigations, both formal and informal, in this area, the results of which cannot be predicted.

Instances of bribery, fraud, accounting irregularities and other improper, illegal or corrupt practices can be difficult to detect, in particular when conducting due diligence in connection with acquisitions, and fraud and other deceptive practices can be widespread in certain jurisdictions. We invest in emerging market countries that may not have established stringent anti-bribery and corruption laws and regulations, where existing laws and regulations may not be consistently enforced, or that are perceived to have materially higher levels of corruption according to international rating standards. Due diligence on investment opportunities in these jurisdictions is frequently more challenging because

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;113

------

consistent and uniform commercial practices in such locations may not have developed or do not meet international standards. Bribery, fraud, accounting irregularities and corrupt practices can be especially difficult to detect in such locations. When acquiring assets in distress, the quality of financial information of the target may also make it difficult to identify irregularities.

The FCPA prohibits bribery of non-U.S. officials, candidates for office and political parties, and requires U.S. companies to keep books and records that accurately and fairly reflect those companies' transactions. Similar laws in non-U.S. jurisdictions, such as the U.K. Bribery Act 2010 and the CFPOA, as well as other applicable anti-bribery and corruption or related laws in the U.S. and abroad, may also impose stricter or more onerous requirements than the FCPA, and implementing them may disrupt our business or cause us to incur significantly more costs to comply with those laws. The policies and procedures we have implemented to comply with anti-bribery and corruption legislation may be inadequate. If we fail to comply with such laws and regulations, we could be exposed to claims for damages, financial penalties, incarceration of our employees, reputational harm, restrictions on our operations and other liabilities, which could negatively affect our operating results and financial condition. In addition, we may be subject to successor liability for violations under these laws and regulations or other acts of bribery committed by entities in which we or managed entities invest.

We are also subject to laws and regulations governing trade and economic sanctions. The Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Department of the Treasury ("OFAC"), the U.S. Department of Commerce and the U.S. Department of State administer and enforce various trade control laws and regulations, including economic and trade sanctions based on U.S. foreign policy and national security goals against targeted foreign states, organizations and individuals. These laws and regulations implicate a number of aspects of our business, including servicing existing fund investors, finding new fund investors, and sourcing new investments, as well as activities by the portfolio companies in our investment portfolio or other controlled investments. Some of these regulations provide that penalties can be imposed on us for the conduct of a portfolio company, even if we have not ourselves violated any regulation. Similar laws in non-U.S. jurisdictions, such as the *Special Economic Measures Act* (Canada), the *United Nations Act* (Canada) and the *Justice for Victims of Corrupt Foreign Officials Act* (Canada), and E.U. sanctions, may also impose restrictions or requirements on us or our operating businesses. Applicable laws of various jurisdictions may contain conflicting provisions, making our compliance more difficult. For example, Canada has adopted measures, such as the Canadian Foreign Extraterritorial Measures Act, that could restrict certain persons and entities subject to Canadian jurisdiction from complying with extra-territorial sanctions imposed by other jurisdictions, such as the U.S. In February 2022, the U.S. and other countries began imposing, and continue to impose, sanctions targeting Russia as a result of actions taken by Russia in Ukraine. We and our portfolio companies are required to comply with these and potentially additional sanctions imposed by the U.S. and by other countries, for which the full costs, burdens, and limitations on our business and prospects are currently unknown and may become significant.

In addition, the U.S. and many non-U.S. countries that have laws designed to protect national security or to restrict foreign direct investment. For example, under the United States Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act ("FIRRMA"), the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States ("CFIUS") has the authority to review, block or impose conditions on investments by non-U.S. persons in U.S. companies or real assets deemed critical or sensitive to the U.S. Many non-U.S. jurisdictions have similar laws. For example, the E.U. has adopted an E.U.-wide mechanism to screen foreign investment on national security grounds and most E.U. member states now have a foreign investment screening mechanism in place or has initiated a consultative or legislative process expected to result in the adoption of a new mechanism or amendments to an existing mechanism, adopted a regulation aimed at regulation of foreign subsidies that could distort the internal E.U. market.

Under these laws, governments have the authority to impose a variety of actions, including requirements for the advance screening or notification of certain transactions, blocking or imposing conditions on certain transactions, limiting the size of foreign equity investments or control by foreign investors, and restricting the employment of foreigners as key personnel. These actions could limit our ability to find suitable investments, cause delays in consummating transactions, result in the abandonment of transactions, and impose burdensome operational requirements on us or our portfolio companies. These laws could also negatively impact our fundraising and syndication activities by causing us to exclude or limit certain investors in our funds or co-investors for our transactions. Moreover, these laws may make it difficult for us to identify suitable buyers for our investments that we want to exit and could constrain the universe of exit opportunities generally. Complying with these laws imposes potentially significant costs and complex additional burdens, and any failure by us or

114&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

our portfolio companies to comply with them could expose us to significant penalties, sanctions, loss of future investment opportunities, additional regulatory scrutiny, and reputational harm.

*f) Financial Obligations and Liquidity*

*Cash must be available to meet our financial obligations when due and enable us to capitalize on investment opportunities when they arise.*

We employ debt and other forms of leverage in the ordinary course of business to enhance returns to our investors and finance our operations. We are therefore subject to the risks associated with debt financing and refinancing, including but not limited to the following: (i) our cash flow may be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest; (ii) payments of principal and interest on borrowings may leave us with insufficient cash resources to pay operating expenses and dividends; (iii) if we are unable to obtain committed debt financing for potential acquisitions or can only obtain debt at high interest rates or on other unfavorable terms, we may have difficulty completing acquisitions or may generate profits that are lower than would otherwise be the case; (iv) we may not be able to refinance indebtedness at maturity due to company and market factors such as the estimated cash flow produced by our assets, the value of our assets, liquidity in the debt markets, and/or financial, competitive, business and other factors; and (v) if we are able to refinance our indebtedness, the terms of a refinancing may not be as favorable as the original terms for such indebtedness. If we are unable to refinance our indebtedness on acceptable terms, or at all, we may need to utilize available liquidity, which would reduce our ability to pursue new investment opportunities, or we may need to dispose of one or more of our assets on disadvantageous terms, or raise equity, thereby causing dilution to existing shareholders. Regulatory changes or changes in economic or market conditions may also result in higher borrowing costs and reduced access to credit.

The terms of our various credit agreements and other financing documents require us to comply with a number of customary financial and other covenants, such as maintaining debt service coverage and leverage ratios, adequate insurance coverage and certain credit ratings. These covenants may limit our flexibility in conducting our operations and breaches of these covenants could result in defaults under the instruments governing the applicable indebtedness, even if we have satisfied and continue to satisfy our payment obligations.

A large proportion of our capital is invested in physical assets and securities that can be hard to sell, especially if market conditions are poor. Further, because our investment strategy can entail our having representation on public portfolio company boards, we may be restricted in our ability to effect sales during certain time periods. A lack of liquidity could limit our ability to vary our portfolio or assets promptly in response to changing economic or investment conditions. Additionally, if financial or operating difficulties of other owners result in distress sales, such sales could depress asset values in the markets in which we operate. The restrictions inherent in owning physical assets could reduce our ability to respond to changes in market conditions and could adversely affect the performance of our investments, our financial condition and results of operations.

Because there is significant uncertainty in the valuation of, or in the stability of the value of illiquid or non-public investments, the fair values of such investments do not necessarily reflect the prices that would actually be obtained when such investments are realized. Realizations at values significantly lower than the values at which investments have been recorded would result in losses, a decline in asset management fees and the potential loss of carried interest and incentive fees.

We enter into financing commitments in the normal course of business, which we may be required to fund. Additionally, from time to time, we may guarantee the obligations of entities managed by our Asset Management business or that we invest in. If we are required to fund these commitments and are unable to do so, this could result in damages being pursued against us or a loss of opportunity through default under contracts that are otherwise to our benefit.

*g) Foreign Exchange and Other Financial Exposures*

*Foreign exchange rate fluctuations could adversely impact our aggregate foreign currency exposure and hedging strategies may not be effective.*

We have pursued and intend to continue to pursue growth opportunities in international markets, and often invest in countries where the U.S. dollar is not the local currency. As a result, we are subject to foreign currency risk due to potential fluctuations in exchange rates between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar. A significant depreciation in the value of the currency utilized in one or more countries where we have a significant presence may have a material adverse

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;115

------

effect on the results of our operations and financial position. In addition, we are active in certain markets where economic growth is dependent on the price of commodities and the currencies in these markets can be more volatile as a result.

Our businesses are impacted by changes in currency rates, interest rates, commodity prices and other financial exposures. We may selectively utilize financial instruments to manage these exposures, including credit default swaps and other derivatives to hedge certain of our financial positions. However, a significant portion of these risks may remain unhedged. We may also choose to establish unhedged positions in the ordinary course of business.

There is no assurance that hedging strategies, to the extent they are used, will fully mitigate the risks they are intended to offset. Additionally, derivatives that we may use are also subject to their own unique set of risks, including counterparty risk with respect to the financial well-being of the party on the other side of these transactions and a potential requirement to fund mark-to-market adjustments. Our financial risk management policies may not ultimately be effective at managing these risks.

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and similar laws in other jurisdictions impose rules and regulations governing oversight of the over-the-counter derivatives market and its participants. These regulations may impose additional costs and regulatory scrutiny on us. If our derivative transactions are required to be executed through exchanges or regulated facilities, we will face incremental collateral requirements in the form of initial margin and require variation margin to be cash settled on a daily basis. Such an increase in margin requirements (relative to bilateral agreements) or a more restricted list of securities that qualify as eligible collateral, would require us to hold larger positions in cash and treasuries, which could reduce income. We cannot predict the effect of changing derivatives legislation on our hedging costs, our hedging strategy or its implementation, or the risks that we hedge. Regulation of derivatives may increase the cost of derivative contracts, reduce the availability of derivatives to protect against operational risk and reduce the liquidity of the derivatives market, all of which may reduce our use of derivatives and result in the increased volatility and decreased predictability of our cash flows.

*h) Temporary Investments and Backstop Commitments*

*We may be unable to syndicate, assign or transfer financial commitments entered into in support of our Asset Management business.*

We periodically enter into agreements that commit us to acquire or stand in place of another entity to acquire assets or securities in order to support our Asset Management business with the expectation that our commitment is temporary. For example, we may acquire an asset suitable for a particular managed entity that is fundraising and warehouse that asset through the fundraising period before transferring the asset to the managed entity for which it was intended. As another example, we may commit capital for a particular acquisition transaction as part of a consortium alongside certain of managed entities with the expectation that we will syndicate or assign all or a portion of our own commitment to other investors prior to, at the same time as, or subsequent to, the anticipated closing of the transaction. In all of these cases, our support is intended to be of a temporary nature and we engage in this activity in order to further the growth and development of our Asset Management business. By leveraging the company's financial position to make temporary investments and backstop commitments, we can execute on investment opportunities prior to obtaining all third-party equity financing that we seek, and these opportunities may otherwise not be available without the company's initial equity participation.

While it is often our intention in these arrangements that the company's direct participation be of a temporary nature, we may be unable to syndicate, assign or transfer our interest or commitment as we intended and therefore may be required to take or keep ownership of assets or securities for an extended period. This would increase the amount of our own capital deployed to certain assets and could have an adverse impact on our liquidity, which may alter our asset concentration outside of our desired parameters, may reduce our ability to pursue further acquisitions, or negatively impact our ability to meet other financial commitments.

*i) Interest Rates*

*Rising interest rates could increase our interest costs and adversely affect our financial performance.*

A number of our long-life assets are interest rate sensitive. Increases in interest rates will, other things being equal, decrease the value of an asset by reducing the present value of the cash flows expected to be produced by such asset. As the present value of an income-producing asset may decline as a result of interest rate increases, certain financial and

116&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

other covenants under credit agreements governing such asset could be breached, even if we have satisfied and continue to satisfy our payment obligations thereunder. Such a breach could result in negative consequences on our financial performance and results of operations.

Additionally, any of our debt or preferred shares that are subject to variable interest rates, either as an obligation with a variable interest rate or as an obligation with a fixed interest rate that resets into a variable interest rate in the future, are subject to interest rate risk. Further, the value of any debt or preferred share that is subject to a fixed interest rate will be determined based on the prevailing interest rates and, accordingly, this type of debt or preferred share is also subject to interest rate risk.

In many jurisdictions in which we operate, a period of sharply increasing interest rates may cause certain market dislocations that could negatively impact our financial performance, increase the cost and impact the availability of debt financing and thereby negatively impact the ability of our businesses to obtain attractive financing or refinancing and could increase the cost of such financing if obtained. Interest rate increases also increase the amount of cash required to service our obligations and our earnings could be adversely impacted as a result.

*j) Human Capital*

*Ineffective maintenance of our culture or ineffective management of human capital could adversely impact our business and financial performance.*

Our ability to compete effectively in our businesses will depend upon our ability to attract new employees and retain and motivate our existing employees, across our and our affiliates' businesses. The senior management team across our businesses has a significant role in our success and oversees the execution of our business and investment strategies. If we are unable to attract and retain qualified employees, this could limit our ability to compete successfully and achieve our business objectives, which could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our ability to retain and motivate our management team, attract suitable replacements should any members of our management team leave, or attract new investment professionals as our business grows, is dependent on, among other things, the competitive nature of the employment market and the career opportunities and compensation that we can offer. In all of our markets, we face intense competition in connection with the attraction and retention of qualified employees.

We may experience departures of key professionals in the future. We cannot predict the impact that any such departures will have on our ability to achieve our objectives. Our senior management team possesses substantial experience and expertise and has strong business relationships with investors in managed entities and other members of the business communities and industries in which we operate. As a result, the loss of these personnel could jeopardize our relationships with investors in managed entities and other members of the business communities and industries in which we operate and result in the reduction of our AUM or fewer investment opportunities. Accordingly, the loss of services from key professionals or a limitation in their availability could adversely impact our financial condition and cash flow. Furthermore, such a loss could be negatively perceived in the capital markets.

Additionally, the departure of certain individuals could trigger certain "key person" provisions in the documentation governing certain of the private funds managed by our asset manager, which would permit the limited partners of those funds to suspend or terminate the funds' investment periods or withdraw their capital prior to the expiration of the applicable lock-up date. Key person provisions vary by both strategy and fund and, with respect to each strategy and fund, are typically tied to multiple individuals, meaning that it would require the departure of more than one individual to trigger the key person provisions. Our human capital risks may be exacerbated by the fact that we do not maintain any key person insurance.

The conduct of our businesses and the execution of our strategy rely heavily on the synergies across our businesses and teamwork. Our continued ability to respond promptly to opportunities and challenges as they arise depends on co-operation and co-ordination across our organization and our team-oriented management structure, which may not materialize in the way we expect.

A portion of the workforce in some of our businesses is unionized. If we are unable to negotiate acceptable collective bargaining agreements with any of our unions as existing agreements expire we could experience a work stoppage, which could result in a significant disruption to the affected operations, higher ongoing labor costs and restrictions on our ability to maximize the efficiency of our operations, all of which could have an adverse effect on our financial results.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;117

------

*k) Geopolitical*

*Political instability, changes in government policy, or unfamiliar cultural factors could adversely impact the value of our investments.*

We are subject to geopolitical uncertainties in all jurisdictions in which we operate. We make investments in businesses that are based outside of North America and we may pursue investments in unfamiliar markets, which may expose us to additional risks not typically associated with investing in North America. We may not properly adjust to the local culture and business practices in such markets, and there is the prospect that we may hire personnel or partner with local persons who might not comply with our culture and ethical business practices; either scenario could result in the failure of our initiatives in new or existing markets and lead to financial losses for us and managed entities. There are risks of political instability and significant changes in laws and policies in several of our major markets and in other parts of the world in which we conduct business from factors such as political conflict, tariffs and other protectionist trade policies, including the encouragement of the onshoring of manufacturing in the U.S. and other countries, income inequality, refugee migration, terrorism, armed conflict, the potential break-up of countries or political-economic unions and political corruption; the materialization of one or more of these risks could negatively affect our financial performance.

Further, global conflict has contributed to economic uncertainty, resulted in volatility in fuel prices and heightened cybersecurity and cyber-terrorism disruptions and threats. Further economic and political instability and the commencement, escalation or expansion of armed conflict in Eastern Europe, the Middle East, or elsewhere in the world could significantly disrupt the free movement of goods, services and people, have a destabilizing effect on energy markets and result in potential higher costs of conducting business. Similarly, an inability of local and national governments to effectively manage ongoing political disputes could result in local, regional and/or global instability. The materialization of one or more of these risks could negatively affect our financial performance and adversely impact our business.

Any existing or new operations may be subject to significant political, economic and financial risks, which vary by country, and may include: (i) changes in government policies and regulations, including tariffs and other protectionist policies, or personnel; (ii) changes in general economic or social conditions; (iii) restrictions on currency transfer or convertibility; (iv) changes in labor relations; (v) military conflict, political instability and civil unrest; (vi) less developed or efficient financial markets than in North America; (vii) the absence of uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards, practices and disclosure requirements; (viii) less government supervision and regulation; (ix) a less developed legal or regulatory environment; (x) heightened exposure to corruption risk; (xi) political hostility to investments by foreign investors; (xii) less publicly available information in respect of companies in non-North American markets; (xiii) adversely higher or lower rates of inflation; (xiv) higher transaction costs; (xv) difficulty in enforcing contractual obligations and expropriation or confiscation of assets; and (xvi) fewer investor protections.

Unforeseen political events in markets where we have significant investors and/or where we own and operate assets or may look to for further growth of our businesses, such as the North American, South American, Australian, European, Middle Eastern and Asian markets, may create economic uncertainty that has a negative impact on our financial performance. Such uncertainty could cause disruptions to our businesses, including affecting the business of and/or our relationships with investors, customers and suppliers, as well as altering the relationship among tariffs and currencies, including the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. Disruptions and uncertainties could adversely affect our financial condition, operating results and cash flows. In addition, political outcomes in the markets in which we operate may also result in legal uncertainty and potentially divergent national laws and regulations, which can contribute to general economic uncertainty. Economic uncertainty impacting us and managed entities could be exacerbated by supply chain disruptions, trade policy and geopolitical tensions.

*l) Economic Conditions*

*Unfavorable economic conditions or changes in the industries in which we operate could adversely impact our financial performance.*

We are exposed to local, regional, national and international economic conditions and other events and occurrences beyond our control, including, but not limited to, the following: short-term and long-term interest rates; inflation; credit and capital market volatility; business investment levels; government spending levels; sovereign debt risks; consumer spending levels; changes in laws, rules or regulations; trade barriers; supply chain disruptions; commodity prices; currency exchange rates and controls; national and international political circumstances (including wars, terrorist acts or

118&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

security operations); catastrophic events (including pandemics/epidemics, earthquakes, tornadoes or floods); the rate and direction of economic growth; and general economic uncertainty. On a global basis, certain industries and sectors have created capacity that anticipated higher growth, which has caused volatility across all markets, including commodity markets, which may have a negative impact on our financial performance. Unfavorable economic conditions could affect the jurisdictions in which our entities are formed and where we own assets and operate businesses, and may cause a reduction in: (i) securities prices; (ii) the liquidity of investments; (iii) the value or performance of the investments; and (iv) the ability to raise or deploy capital, each of which could adversely impact our financial condition.

In general, a decline in economic conditions, either in the markets or industries in which we participate, or both, will result in downward pressure on our operating margins and asset values as a result of lower demand and increased price competition for the services and products that we provide. In particular, given the importance of the U.S. to our operations, an economic downturn in this market could have a significant adverse effect on our operating margins and asset values.

Many of the private funds of our asset manager have a finite life that may require an investment exit to be made at an inopportune time. Volatility in the exit markets for these investments, increasing levels of capital required to finance companies to exit and rising enterprise value thresholds to go public or complete a strategic sale can all contribute to the risk that a private fund investment cannot be exited successfully. Our asset manager cannot always control the timing of private fund investment exits or realizations upon exit.

If global economic conditions deteriorate, our investment performance could suffer, resulting in, for example, the payment of less or no carried interest to us. The payment of less or no carried interest to us could cause our cash flow from operations to decrease, which could materially adversely affect our liquidity position and the amount of cash we have on hand to conduct our operations. A reduction in our cash flow from operations could, in turn, require us to rely on other sources of cash such as the capital markets, which may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or debt and other forms of leverage.

In addition, in an economic downturn, there is an increased risk of default by counterparties to our investments and other transactions. In these circumstances, it is more likely that such transactions will fail or perform poorly, which may in turn have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operation and financial condition.

*Inflationary pressures could adversely impact our businesses.*

Our operating businesses may be impacted by inflationary pressures. While inflationary pressure eased in 2025 across many jurisdictions, past price increases continue to affect householders and weigh on confidence and spending power. Increased tariffs, retaliatory actions and trade barriers, as well as increased geopolitical risks, adds uncertainty to the long-term outlook for inflation and interest rates and a reacceleration of inflation could trigger a reversal in recent interest rate decreases. Interest rate increases or other government actions taken to reduce inflation could also result in recessionary pressures in many parts of the world. Interest rate risk poses a significant market risk to us as a result of interest rate-sensitive assets and liabilities held by us and our operating businesses. Higher interest rates or elevated interest rates for a sustained period could also result in an economic slowdown. Economic contraction or further deceleration in the rate of growth in certain industries, sectors or geographies may contribute to poor financial results at our operating businesses. While regulated and contractual arrangements in our portfolio companies can provide significant protection against inflationary pressures, any sustained upward trajectory in the inflation rate may still have an impact on our operating businesses and our investors, and could impact our ability to source suitable investment opportunities, match or exceed prior investment strategy performance and secure attractive debt financing, all of which could adversely impact our operating businesses and our growth and capital recycling initiatives.

*m) Catastrophic Event/Loss, Pandemics, Climate Change, War and Terrorism*

*Catastrophic events (or combination of events), such as earthquakes, tornadoes, floods, fires, pandemics/epidemics, climate change, military conflict/war or terrorism/sabotage, could adversely impact our financial performance.*

Our AUM could be exposed to effects of catastrophic events, such as severe weather conditions, natural disasters, major accidents, pandemics/epidemics, acts of malicious destruction, climate change, war/military conflict or terrorism, which could materially adversely impact our operations.

A local, regional, national or international outbreak of a contagious disease, which spreads across the globe at a rapid pace impacting global commercial activity and travel, or future public health crises, epidemics or pandemics, could

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;119

------

materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition due to disruptions to commerce, reduced economic activity and other unforeseen consequences that are beyond our control.

The emergence and progression of a contagious disease and the actions taken in response by government authorities across various geographies in which the company owns and operates investments could interrupt business activities and supply chains, disrupt travel, contribute to significant volatility in the financial markets, impact social conditions and adversely affected local, regional, national and international economic conditions as well as the labor market. There can be no assurance that strategies that we employ to address potential disruptions in operations would mitigate the adverse impacts of any of these factors.

Natural disasters and ongoing changes to the physical climate in which we operate may have an adverse impact on our business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Changes in weather patterns or extreme weather (such as floods, wildfires, droughts, hurricanes and other storms) may negatively affect our businesses' operations or damage assets that we may own or develop. Further, rising sea levels could, in the future, affect the value of any low-lying coastal real assets that we may own or develop. Climate change may increase the frequency and severity of severe weather conditions and may change existing weather patterns in ways that are difficult to anticipate. Responses to these changes could result in higher costs, such as the imposition of new property taxes, increases in insurance rates or additional capital expenditures.

Our commercial office portfolio is concentrated in large metropolitan areas, some of which have been or may be perceived to be threatened by terrorist attacks or acts of war. Furthermore, many of our properties consist of high-rise buildings that may also be subject to this actual or perceived threat. The perceived threat of a terrorist attack or outbreak of war could negatively impact our ability to lease office space in our real estate portfolio. Renewable power and infrastructure assets such as roads, railways, power generation facilities and ports, may also be targeted by terrorist organizations or in acts of war. Any damage or business interruption costs as a result of uninsured or underinsured acts of terrorism or war could result in a material cost to us and could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operation. Adequate terrorism insurance may not be available at rates we believe to be reasonable in the future. These risks could be heightened by foreign policy decisions of the U.S. (where we have significant operations) and other influential countries or general geopolitical conditions.

Additionally, our businesses rely on free movement of goods, services, and capital from around the globe. Any slowdown in international investment, business or trade as a result of catastrophic events could also have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

*n) Tax*

*Reassessments by tax authorities or changes in tax laws could create additional tax costs for us.* 

Our structure is based on prevailing taxation law and practice in the local jurisdictions in which we operate. Any change in tax policy, tax legislation (including in relation to taxation rates), the interpretation of tax policy or legislation or practice in these jurisdictions could adversely affect the return we earn on our investments, the level of capital available to be invested by us or managed entities and the willingness of investors to invest in them. This risk would include any reassessments by tax authorities on our tax returns if we were to incorrectly interpret or apply any tax policy, legislation or practice.

Taxes and other constraints that would apply to our operating entities in such jurisdictions may not apply to local institutions or other parties such as state-owned enterprises, and such parties may therefore have a significantly lower effective cost of capital and a corresponding competitive advantage in pursuing acquisitions. There are a number of factors that could increase our effective tax rates, which would have a negative impact on our net income, including, but not limited to, changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities and any reassessment of taxes by a taxation authority.

Governments around the world increasingly seek to regulate multinational companies and their use of differential tax rates between jurisdictions. This effort includes a greater emphasis by various nations on coordinating and sharing information regarding companies and the taxes they pay. A number of countries across the globe have also agreed to implement a "two pillar" plan for global tax reform, developed by the OECD/G20 Inclusive Framework on BEPS, to address perceived base erosion and profit shifting ("BEPS") by multinational groups. Governmental taxation reforms, policies and practices

120&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

could adversely affect us and, depending on the nature of such reforms, policies and practices, including the implementation of the BEPS proposals in the jurisdictions in which we operate could have a greater impact on us than on other companies. As a result of this increased focus on the use of tax planning by multinational companies, our tax planning could be subject to negative media coverage, which may adversely impact our reputation.

*o) Financial Reporting and Disclosures*

*Deficiencies in our public company financial reporting and disclosures could adversely impact our reputation.*

As we expand the size and scope of our business, there is a greater susceptibility that our financial reporting and other public disclosure documents may contain material misstatements and that the controls we maintain to attempt to ensure the complete accuracy of our public disclosures may fail to operate as intended. The occurrence of such events could adversely impact our reputation and financial condition. In addition, we disclose certain metrics that do not have standardized meaning, are based on our own methodologies and assumptions and may not properly convey the information they purport to reflect.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting to give our stakeholders assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. However, the process for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting has inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error. In addition, we may exclude recently acquired companies from our evaluation of internal controls. Our internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements in our financial disclosures on a timely basis, or at all. Some of these processes may be new for certain subsidiaries in our structure and in the case of acquisitions may take time to be fully implemented.

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under Canadian and U.S. securities laws is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified. Our policies and procedures governing disclosures may not ensure that all material information regarding us is disclosed in a proper and timely fashion, or that we will be successful in preventing the disclosure of material information to a single person or a limited group of people before such information is generally disseminated.

*p) Sustainability*

*Ineffective management of environmental and sustainability issues, including climate change, and inadequate or ineffective health and safety programs could damage our reputation, adversely impact our financial performance and lead to regulatory action.*

There is increasing stakeholder interest in sustainability considerations and how they are managed. Sustainability considerations include climate change, human capital and labor management, corporate governance, diversity and privacy and data security, among others. Certain investors and lenders are incorporating sustainability considerations into their investment or lending process, respectively, alongside traditional financial considerations. Investors or potential investors in managed entities or in Brookfield may not invest in all products given certain industries in which we operate. If we are unable to successfully integrate sustainability considerations into our practices, we may incur a higher cost of capital, lower interest in our debt securities and/or equity securities or otherwise face a negative impact on our business, operating results and cash flows and result in reputational damage.

Certain of our subsidiaries and affiliates may be subject to compliance with laws, regulations, regulatory rules and/or guidance relating to sustainability, and any failure to comply with these laws, regulations, regulatory rules or guidance could expose us to material adverse consequences, including loss, limitations on our ability to undertake licensable business, legal liabilities, financial and non-financial sanctions and penalties, and/or reputational damage. Sustainability requirements imposed by jurisdictions in which we do business, such as the E.U. Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (2019/2088), could (a) result in additional compliance costs, disclosure obligations or other implications or restrictions; and/or (b) impact our established business practices, cost base and, by extension, our profitability. Sustainability-related requirements and market practices differ by region, industry and issue and are evolving dynamically, and the sustainability requirements applicable to us, our investments, or our assessment of such requirements or practices may change over time. Under emerging sustainability requirements, we may be required to classify our

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;121

------

businesses against, or determine the alignment of underlying investments under, sustainability-related legislative and regulatory criteria and taxonomies, some of which can be open to subjective interpretation. Our view on the appropriate classifications may develop over time, including in response to statutory or regulatory guidance or changes in industry approach to classification. A change to the relevant classification may require further actions to be taken, for example it may require further disclosures, or it may require new processes to be set up to capture data, which may lead to additional cost, disclosure obligations or other implications or restrictions.

The transition to a lower-carbon economy has the potential to be disruptive to traditional business models and investment strategies. Efforts to limit climate change may give rise to changes in regulations, reporting and consumer sentiment that could have a negative impact on our existing operations by increasing the costs of operating our business or reducing demand for our products and services. The adverse effects of climate change and related regulation at state, provincial, federal or international levels could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The ownership and operation of some of the assets held in our portfolio companies carry varying degrees of inherent risk or liability related to worker health and safety and the environment, including the risk of government-imposed orders to remedy unsafe conditions and contaminated lands and potential civil liability. Compliance with health, safety and environmental standards and the requirements set out in the relevant licenses, permits and other approvals obtained by the portfolio companies is crucial.

Our portfolio companies have incurred and will continue to incur significant capital and operating expenditures to comply with sustainability requirements, including health and safety standards, to obtain and comply with licenses, permits and other approvals, and to assess and manage potential liability exposure. Nevertheless, they may be unsuccessful in obtaining or maintaining an important license, permit or other approval or become subject to government orders, investigations, inquiries or other proceedings (including civil claims) relating to health, safety and environmental matters, any of which could have a material adverse effect on us.

Health, safety and environmental laws and regulations can change rapidly and significantly, and we and/or our portfolio companies may become subject to more stringent laws and regulations in the future. The occurrence of any adverse health, safety or environmental event, or any changes, additions to, or more rigorous enforcement of, health, safety and environmental standards, licenses, permits or other approvals could have a significant impact on operations and/or result in material expenditures.

Owners and operators of real assets may become liable for the costs of removal and remediation of certain hazardous substances released or deposited on or in their properties, or at other locations regardless of whether the owner and operator caused the release or deposit of such hazardous materials. These costs could be significant and could reduce cash available for our businesses. The failure to remove or remediate such substances, if any, could adversely affect our ability to sell our assets or to borrow using these assets as collateral, and could potentially result in claims or other proceedings.

Certain of our businesses are involved in using, handling or transporting substances that are toxic, combustible or otherwise hazardous to the environment and may be in close proximity to environmentally sensitive areas or densely populated communities. If a leak, spill or other environmental incident occurred, it could result in substantial fines or penalties being imposed by regulatory authorities, revocation of licenses or permits required to operate the business, the imposition of more stringent conditions in those licenses or permits or legal claims for compensation (including punitive damages) by affected stakeholders.

Global sustainability challenges, such as greenhouse gas emissions, privacy and data security, demographic shifts and regulatory pressures are introducing new risk factors for us that we may not have dealt with previously. We are also engaged with various sustainability frameworks and organizations through which we have stated certain ambitions and commitments regarding sustainability best practices. If we are unable to successfully manage our sustainability compliance or commitments, this could have a negative impact on our reputation and our ability to raise future public and private capital and could be detrimental to our economic value and the value of managed entities.

*q) Dependence on Information Technology Systems and Data Security, Privacy, and Cyber-Terrorism* 

*We rely on the use of technology and information systems, many of which are controlled by third-party service providers, which may not be able to accommodate our growth or may increase in cost and may become subject to cyber-terrorism or other compromises and shut-downs, and any failures or interruptions of these systems could adversely affect our businesses and results of operations.* 

We operate in businesses that are dependent on information systems and other technology, such as computer systems used for information storage, processing, administrative and commercial functions as well as the machinery and other equipment used in certain parts of our operations. In addition, our businesses rely on telecommunication services to interface with their business networks and customers. The information and embedded systems of key business partners and regulatory agencies are also important to our operations. We rely on this technology functioning as intended. Our information systems and technology may not continue to be able to accommodate our growth, and the cost of maintaining such systems may increase from its current level. Such a failure to accommodate growth, or an increase in costs related to such information systems, could have a material adverse effect on us.

We rely heavily on certain financial, accounting, communications and other data processing systems. We collect, store and use large amounts of sensitive information, including personally identifiable information, through our information technology systems. Our information technology systems face ongoing cybersecurity and cyber-terrorism threats and attacks, which could result in the failure of such infrastructure. We may in the future be subject to cyber-terrorism or other cybersecurity risks or other breaches of information technology security, noting the increasing frequency, sophistication and severity of these kinds of incidents. In particular, our information technology systems may be subject to cyber terrorism intended to obtain unauthorized access to our proprietary information, personally identifiable information or to client or third-party data stored on our systems, destroy or disable our data and/or that of our business partners, disclose confidential data in breach of data privacy legislation, destroy data or disable, degrade or sabotage our systems, through the introduction of computer viruses, cyber-attacks and other means. Such attacks could originate from a wide variety of sources, including internal actors or unknown third parties. Further, unauthorized parties may also gain physical access to our facilities and infiltrate our information systems or attempt to gain access to information and data. The sophistication of the threats continues to evolve and grow, including the risk associated with the use of emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence and quantum computing, for nefarious purposes. We cannot predict what effects such cyber-attacks or compromises or shut-downs may have on our business and on the privacy of the individuals or entities affected, and the consequences could be material. Cyber incidents may remain undetected for an extended period, which could exacerbate these consequences. The costs to eliminate or address the foregoing security threats and vulnerabilities before or after a cyber-incident could be material. A significant actual or potential theft, loss, corruption, exposure, fraudulent, unauthorized or accidental use or misuse of investor, policyholder, employee or other personally identifiable or proprietary business data, whether by third parties or as a result of employee malfeasance or otherwise, non-compliance with our contractual or other legal obligations regarding such data or intellectual property or a violation of our privacy and security policies with respect to such data could result in significant remediation and other costs, fines, litigation and regulatory actions against us by governments, various regulatory organizations or exchanges, or affected individuals, in addition to significant reputational harm and/or financial loss, and it may not be possible to recover losses suffered from such incidents under our insurance policies.

In addition, our operating equipment may not continue to perform as it has in the past, and there is a risk of equipment failure due to wear and tear, latent defect, design or operator errors or early obsolescence, among other things.

A breach of our cyber security measures or the failure or malfunction of any of our computerized business systems, associated backup or data storage systems could cause us to suffer a disruption in one or more parts of our business and experience, among other things, financial loss, reputational damage, a loss of business opportunities, misappropriation or unauthorized release of confidential or personal information, damage to our systems and those with whom we do business, violation of privacy and other laws, litigation, regulatory penalties and remediation and restoration costs as well as increased costs to maintain our systems.

We are reliant on third party service providers for certain aspects of our business, including for the administration of certain funds we manage, as well as for certain information systems and technology platforms, trustee services, legal services, technology, administration, tax, accounting and compliance matters. A disaster, disruption or compromise in technology or infrastructure that supports our businesses, including a disruption involving electronic communications or

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;123

------

other services used by us, our vendors or third parties with whom we conduct business, may have an adverse impact on our ability to continue to operate our businesses without interruption which could have a material adverse effect on us. These risks could increase as vendors increasingly offer cloud-based software services rather than software services that can be operated within our own data centers. These risks also increase to the extent we engage with vendors and third-party services providers in jurisdictions with which we are not familiar. In addition to the fact that these third-party service providers could also face ongoing cyber security threats and compromises of their systems, we generally have less control over the delivery of such third-party services, and as a result, we may face disruptions to our ability to operate a business as a result of interruptions of such services. A prolonged global failure of cloud services provided by a variety of cloud services providers that we engage could result in cascading systems failures for us. Although we are continuing to develop measures to ensure the integrity of our systems, we can provide no assurance that our efforts or those of third-party service providers will be successful in protecting our systems and preventing or ameliorating damage from a cyber incident. Data protection and privacy rules have become a focus for regulators globally. For instance, the European General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") sets out data protection rules for individuals that are residents of the E.U. GDPR imposes stringent rules and penalties for non- compliance. Other countries where we operate are enacting or amending data protection, artificial intelligence and other technology laws to empower regulators to impose financial penalties and injunctions on certain data processing activities, which could have an adverse effect on our business.

*r) Artificial Intelligence*

*Artificial intelligence may be used more effectively by our competitors and our employees or third parties may inappropriately use the technology.*

Developments in artificial intelligence, including machine learning technology and generative artificial intelligence, and their impact on the private investment and financial services sectors are rapidly evolving. The full extent of the risks associated with artificial intelligence, as well as the legal and regulatory frameworks within which they will operate, is impossible to predict. Given the substantial uncertainty about the extent to which artificial intelligence will create dramatic changes throughout the world, we may not be able to anticipate or mitigate all of the potential risks. Our competitors may be more successful than us in the development and implementation of artificial intelligence and, if we are unable to adequately advance our capabilities in these areas or do so at a slower pace than our competitors, we may be at a competitive disadvantage. As the use of artificial intelligence increases, there is a risk that it may be used or relied upon inappropriately by our employees or third parties that we engage in carrying out their responsibilities.

Furthermore, artificial intelligence technologies may produce inaccurate, incomplete, biased or non-explainable outputs, or rely on data that is flawed, improperly sourced, restricted, or subject to privacy or confidentiality obligations. This could adversely impact us and our operations to the extent that we rely on the work product of such artificial intelligence in such operations.

The misuse or misappropriation of our data through the use of artificial intelligence could also have an adverse impact on our reputation and could subject us to legal and regulatory investigations and/or actions. Additionally, increased reliance on third-party artificial intelligence technologies may also expose us to security vulnerabilities, limitations in our ability to monitor or control model behavior, and uncertainty regarding the ownership or licensing of intellectual property associated with AI-generated outputs.

Finally, any failure to appropriately govern the development, deployment, or use of artificial intelligence could result in regulatory scrutiny, legal liability, financial loss, or reputational harm.

*s) Litigation*

*We and our affiliates may become involved in legal disputes in Canada, the U.S. and internationally that could adversely impact our financial performance and reputation.*

In the normal course of our operations, we become involved in various legal actions, including claims relating to personal injury, property damage, property taxes, land rights and contract and other commercial disputes. The investment decisions we make in our Asset Management business and the activities of our investment professionals on behalf of portfolio companies and managed entities may subject us, managed entities and our portfolio companies to the risk of third-party litigation. Further, we have significant operations in the U.S. which may, as a result of the prevalence of litigation in the U.S., be more susceptible to legal action than certain of our other competitors.

124&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

Management of our litigation matters is generally handled by legal counsel in the business unit most directly impacted by the litigation, and not by a centralized legal department. As a result, the management of litigation that we face may not always be appropriate or effective.

The final outcome with respect to outstanding, pending or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and the resolution of such actions may have an adverse effect on our financial position or results of our operations in a particular quarter or fiscal year. Any litigation may consume substantial amounts of our management's time and attention, and that time and the devotion of these resources to litigation may, at times, be disproportionate to the amounts at stake in the litigation. Even if ultimately unsuccessful against us, any litigation has the potential to adversely affect our business, including by damaging our reputation.

*t) Insurance*

*Losses not covered by insurance may be large, which could adversely impact our financial performance.*

We carry various insurance policies in relation to our assets and business activities. These policies contain policy specifications, limits and deductibles that may mean that such policies do not provide coverage or sufficient coverage against all potential material losses. We may also self-insure a portion of certain of these risks, and therefore the company may not be able to recover from a third-party insurer in the event that the company, if it had asset insurance coverage from a third party, could make a claim for recovery. There are certain types of risk (generally of a catastrophic nature such as war or environmental contamination) that are either uninsurable or not economically insurable. Further, there are certain types of risk for which insurance coverage is not equal to the full replacement cost of the insured assets. Should any uninsured or underinsured loss occur, we could lose our investment in, and anticipated profits and cash flows from, one or more of our assets or operations.

We also carry directors' and officers' liability insurance ("D&O insurance") for losses or advancement of defense costs in the event a legal action is brought against the company's directors, officers or employees for alleged wrongful acts in their capacity as directors, officers or employees. Our D&O insurance contains certain customary exclusions that may make it unavailable for the company in the event it is needed; and in any case our D&O insurance may not be adequate to fully protect the company against liability for the conduct of its directors, officers or employees. We may also self-insure a portion of our D&O insurance, and therefore the company may not be able to recover from a third-party insurer in the event that the company, if it had D&O insurance from a third-party insurer, could make a claim for recovery.

For economic efficiency and other reasons, the company and its affiliates may enter into insurance policies as a group that are intended to provide coverage for the entire group. Where group policies are in place, any payments under such policy could have a negative impact on other entities covered under the policy as they may not be able to access adequate insurance in the event it is needed. While management attempts to design coverage limits under group policies to ensure that all entities covered under a policy have access to sufficient insurance coverage, there are no guarantees that these efforts will be effective in obtaining this result.

*u) Credit and Counterparty Risk*

*Inability to collect amounts owing to us could adversely impact financial performance.*

Third parties may not fulfill their payment obligations to us, which could include money, securities or other assets, thereby impacting our operations and financial results. These parties include deal and trading counterparties, governmental agencies, portfolio company customers and financial intermediaries. Third parties may default on their obligations to us due to bankruptcy, lack of liquidity, operational failure, general economic conditions or other reasons.

We have business lines that loan money to distressed companies, either privately or via an investment in publicly traded debt securities. As a result, we actively take heightened credit risk in other entities from time to time and whether we realize satisfactory investment returns on these loans is uncertain and may be beyond our control. If some of these debt investments fail, our financial performance could be negatively impacted.

Investors in private funds make capital commitments to these vehicles through the execution of subscription agreements. When a private fund makes an investment, these capital commitments are then satisfied by such investors via capital contributions. These investors may default on their capital commitment obligations, which could have an adverse impact on our Asset Management business and in turn our earnings or result in other negative implications to our businesses

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;125

------

such as the requirement to redeploy our own capital to cover such obligations. This impact would be magnified if the investor that does so is in multiple funds.

*v) Information Barriers*

*Information barriers may give rise to certain conflicts and risks and investment teams managing the activities of businesses that operate on opposite sides of an information barrier will not be aware of, and will not have the ability to manage, such conflicts and risks.*

Certain businesses within our asset management operations operate largely independently of one another pursuant to an information barrier. The information barrier restricts businesses on opposite sides from coordinating or consulting with one another with respect to investment activities and/or decisions. Accordingly, these businesses manage their investment operations independently of each other. The investment activities and decisions made by a business on one side of an information barrier are not expected to be subject to any internal approvals by any person who would have knowledge and/or decision-making control of the investment activities and decisions made by a business on the other side of the information barrier. This absence of coordination and consultation will give rise to certain conflicts and risks in connection with the activities of the businesses within our asset management operations and their portfolio companies, and make it more difficult to mitigate, ameliorate or avoid such situations. These conflicts (and potential conflicts) of interests may include: (i) competing from time to time for the same investment opportunities, (ii) the pursuit by a business on one side of the information barrier of investment opportunities suitable for a business on the other side of the information barrier, without making such opportunities available to such business, and (iii) the formation or establishment of new strategies or products that could compete or otherwise conduct their affairs without regard as to whether or not they adversely impact the strategies or products of our businesses operating on the other side of the information barrier. Investment teams managing the activities of businesses that operate on opposite sides of an information barrier are not expected to be aware of, and will not have the need or ability to manage, such conflicts which may impact the investment strategy, performance and investment returns of certain businesses within our asset management operations and their portfolio companies.

The asset management businesses that operate on opposite sides of an information barrier are likely to be deemed affiliates for purposes of certain laws and regulations notwithstanding that such businesses may be operationally independent from one another. The information barrier does not eliminate the requirement that such businesses aggregate certain investment holdings for certain securities laws and other regulatory purposes. This may result in, among other things, earlier public disclosure of investments; restrictions on transactions (including the ability to make or dispose of certain investments at certain times); potential short-swing profit disgorgement; penalties and/or regulatory remedies; or adverse effects on the prices of investments for our Asset Management businesses that operate on the other side of such information barrier.

Although these information barriers were implemented to address the potential conflicts of interests and regulatory, legal and contractual requirements applicable to our Asset Management business, we may decide, at any time and without notice to our company or our shareholders, to remove or modify the information barriers within our Asset Management business. In addition, there may be breaches (including inadvertent breaches) of the information barriers and related internal controls. In the event that the information barrier is removed or modified, it would be expected that we will adopt certain protocols designed to address potential conflicts and other considerations relating to the management of the investment activities of those businesses that previously operated on opposite sides of an information barrier.

The breach or failure of such information barriers could result in the sharing of material non-public information between businesses that operate on opposite sides of an information barrier, which may restrict the acquisition or disposition activities of one of our businesses and ultimately impact the returns generated for our investors. In addition, any such breach or failure could also result in potential regulatory investigations and claims for securities laws violations in connection with our direct and/or indirect investment activities. Any inadvertent trading on material non-public information, or perception of trading on material non-public information by one of our businesses or our personnel, could have a significant adverse effect on our reputation, result in the imposition of regulatory or financial sanctions and negatively impact our ability to raise third-party capital and provide investment management services to clients, all of which could result in negative financial impact to our investment activities.

*w) Wealth Solutions*

*We face risks specific to BWS and its insurance activities.*

BWS is focused on securing the financial futures of individuals and institutions through a range of retirement services, wealth protection products, and tailored capital solutions. Through its operating subsidiaries, BWS offers a broad range of insurance products and services, including annuities, personal and commercial property and casualty insurance, and life insurance.

BWS exchangeable shares are intended to provide holders with an economic return equivalent to our Class A shares. Each BWS exchangeable share is exchangeable on a one-for-one basis at the option of the holder for our Class A shares or its cash equivalent (the form of payment to be determined at the election of the company). Distributions on BWS exchangeable shares are expected to be paid at the same time and in the same amount as dividends are paid on our Class A shares.

While BWS and its operating businesses will generally be required to satisfy their own working capital requirements and service and debt obligations, we have entered into a support agreement to support the economic equivalence between our Class A shares and BWS exchangeable shares, pursuant to which we have agreed to, among other things, take all actions reasonably necessary to enable BWS to pay quarterly distributions and the liquidation amount or amount payable on a redemption of BWS exchangeable shares. We have also entered into an equity commitment agreement and credit agreement for the purposes of providing BWS with access to debt financing on an as-needed basis to fund the growth of and maximize flexibility for BWS.

Further, we or BWS may issue additional shares in the future in the public markets, including to fund future growth of BWS or in lieu of incurring indebtedness, which could depress the market price or dilute the percentage interest of existing holders of our Class A shares and BWS exchangeable shares in aggregate, and impair the ability for us or BWS to raise capital through the sale of additional exchangeable shares. Additionally, the effect of any future sales or issuances of any BWS exchangeable shares issued by BWS or any future sales or issuances of our Class A shares (which would in turn, impact the BWS exchangeable shares cannot be predicted.

BWS' business is presently conducted under four operating segments, which it refers to as Annuities, Property and Casualty ("P&C"), Life Insurance, and Corporate and Other segments. While BWS plans to continue developing its insurance and wealth solutions offerings, there is no guarantee that it will be successful in doing so. A key part of BWS' growth strategy will involve writing new insurance policies, executing new pension risk transfer ("PRT") arrangements and reinsurance contracts and may also include the acquisition of, or material investments in, existing reinsurance and insurance platforms. Such initiatives, if successful, would significantly increase the scale, scope and diversity of BWS. While BWS has reviewed and has successfully executed transactions in the past to facilitate its growth, the insurance industry is highly competitive, and BWS may not be successful in executing on future opportunities.

The success of BWS' business is dependent on writing, operating, and servicing annuities, personal and commercial property and casualty insurance, and life insurance and other corporate segments in relation to corporate functions for its core insurance operations. Any problems or discrepancies that arise in its pricing, underwriting, billing, processing, claims handling or other practices, whether as a result of incorrect assumptions, employee error, vendor error, or other technological issues (including cybersecurity risks), could have a negative effect on the reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations of BWS.

BWS makes and relies on certain assumptions and estimates in order to make decisions regarding pricing, target returns, reserve levels and other factors affecting its business operations. Its underwriting results depend upon the extent to which actual claims experience and benefit payments under its reinsurance contracts are consistent with the assumptions used in setting prices and establishing liabilities for such contracts. Such amounts are established based on actuarial estimates of how much BWS will need to pay for future benefits and claims based on data and models that include many assumptions and projections, which are inherently uncertain and involve significant judgment, including assumptions as to the levels and/or timing of receipt or payment of premiums, benefits, claims, expenses, interest credits and investment results (including equity and other market returns). If the assumptions and estimates of BWS differ significantly from the actual outcomes and results, its business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows may be materially and adversely affected, which in turn may negatively impact the value of our interest in the business.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;127

*x) Renewable Power and Transition*

*We face risks specific to our renewable power and transition activities.*

Our renewable power and transition operations are subject to changes in the weather, hydrology and price, but also include risks related to equipment or dam failure, counterparty performance, water rental costs, land rental costs, changes in regulatory requirements and other material disruptions.

The revenues generated by our power facilities are correlated to the amount of electricity generated, which in turn is dependent upon available water flows, wind, irradiance and other elements beyond our control. Hydrology, wind and irradiance levels vary naturally from year to year and may also change permanently because of climate change or other factors. It is therefore possible that low water, wind and irradiance levels at certain of our power generating operations could occur at any time and potentially continue for indefinite periods. In addition, extreme weather conditions could impact our access to the various transmission systems required to deliver power.

A portion of our renewable power and transition revenue is tied, either directly or indirectly, to the wholesale market price for electricity, which is impacted by a number of external factors beyond our control. Additionally, a portion of the power we generate is sold under long-term power purchase agreements, shorter-term financial instruments and physical electricity contracts which are intended to mitigate the impact of fluctuations in wholesale electricity prices; however, they may not be effective in achieving this outcome. Certain of our power purchase agreements will be subject to re-contracting in the future. If the price of electricity in power markets is declining at the time of such re-contracting, it may impact our ability to re-negotiate or replace these contracts on terms that are acceptable to us. Conversely, what appears to be an attractive price at the time of recontracting could, if power prices rise over the power purchase agreement's term, result in us having committed to sell power in the future at below market rate. If we are unable to re-negotiate or replace these contracts, or unable to secure prices at least equal to the current prices we receive, our business, financial condition, results of operation and prospects could be adversely affected.

In our renewable power and transition operations, there is a risk of equipment failure due to severe weather conditions (including as a result of climate change), wear and tear, latent defect, design error or operator error, among other things. The occurrence of such failures could result in a loss of generating capacity and repairing such failures could require the expenditure of significant capital and other resources. Failures could also result in exposure to significant liability for damages due to harm to the environment, to the public generally or to specific third parties. Equipment that our renewable power and transition operations need, including spare parts and components required for project development, may become unavailable or difficult to procure, inhibiting our ability to maintain full availability of existing plants and also our ability to complete development projects on scope, schedule and budget.

In certain cases, some catastrophic events may not excuse us from performing our obligations pursuant to agreements with third parties and we may be liable for damages or suffer further losses as a result.

We are exposed to performance and operational risks in respect of certain nuclear technologies. The nuclear fuel and power industries are heavily regulated and could be significantly impacted by changes in government policies and priorities such as increased regulation and/or more onerous operating requirements that negatively impact our nuclear technology services. A future accident at a nuclear reactor could result in the shutdown of existing plants or impact the continued acceptance by the public and regulatory authorities of nuclear energy and the future prospects for nuclear generators. Accidents, terrorism, natural disasters or other incidents occurring at nuclear facilities or involving shipments of nuclear materials could reduce the demand for nuclear technology services.

Our ability to develop greenfield renewable power projects in our development pipeline may be affected by a number of factors, including the state of capital markets, the ability to secure project financing (including from tax equity investors and through tax and other government incentives) the ability to secure approvals, licenses and permits and the ability to secure a long-term power purchase agreement or other sales contracts on reasonable terms. The development of our pipeline of greenfield renewable power projects is also subject to environmental, engineering and construction risks that could result in cost-overruns, delays and reduced performance.

New regulatory initiatives related to sustainability could adversely impact our business. While we believe that regulatory initiatives and market trends towards an increased focus on sustainability are generally beneficial to our renewable power and transition group, any such regulatory initiatives also have the potential to adversely impact us. For example,

128&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

regulatory initiatives seeking to reorient investment toward sustainability by regulating green financial products could have the effect of increasing burdensome disclosure requirements around sustainability and prescribing approaches to sustainability policies that are inconsistent with our current practices. If regulators disagree with the sustainability disclosures that we make, or with the categorization of our financial products, we may face regulatory enforcement action, and our business or reputation could be adversely affected.

*y) Infrastructure*

*We face risks specific to our infrastructure activities.*

Our infrastructure operations include utilities, transport, midstream, and data operations. Our infrastructure assets include toll roads, telecommunication towers, electricity transmission systems, terminal operations, electricity and gas distribution companies, residential infrastructure, rail networks, ports and data centers. The principal risks facing the regulated and unregulated businesses comprising our infrastructure operations relate to government regulation, general economic conditions and other material disruptions, counterparty performance and capital expenditure requirements.

Many of our infrastructure operations are subject to government regulation, including with respect to revenues and environmental sustainability. If any of the respective regulators in the jurisdictions in which we operate decides to change the tolls or rates we are allowed to charge, or the amounts of the provisions we are allowed to collect, we may not be able to earn the rate of return on our investments that we had planned, or we may not be able to recover our initial cost.

With environmental regulation becoming more stringent, our investments may become subject to increasing environmental responsibility and liability. These regulations may result in increased costs to our operations that may not be able to be passed onto our customers and may have an adverse impact on prospects for growth of some businesses.

General economic conditions (including those resulting from climate change and severe weather conditions) affect international demand for the commodities handled and services provided by our infrastructure operations. A downturn in the economy generally or specific to any of our infrastructure businesses, may lead to a reduction in volumes, disruption to our business, bankruptcies or liquidations of one or more large customers, which could reduce our revenues, increase our bad debt expense, reduce our ability to make capital expenditures or have other adverse effects on us.

Some of our infrastructure operations have customer contracts as well as concession agreements in place with public and private sector clients. Our operations with customer contracts could be adversely affected by any material change in the assets, financial condition or results of operations of such customers. Protecting the quality of our revenue streams through the inclusion of take-or-pay or guaranteed minimum volume provisions into our contracts is not always possible or fully effective.

Our infrastructure operations may require substantial capital expenditures to maintain our asset base. Any failure to make necessary expenditures to maintain our operations could impair our ability to serve existing customers or accommodate increased volumes. In addition, we may not be able to recover investments in capital expenditures based upon the rates our operations are able to charge.

*z) Private Equity*

*We face risks specific to our private equity activities.*

The principal risks for our private equity businesses are potential loss of invested capital as well as insufficient investment or fee income to cover operating expenses and cost of capital. Our private equity platform is invested in industrial operations, business services operations and infrastructure services operations, many of which can be cyclical and/or illiquid and therefore may be difficult to monetize at our discretion, limiting our flexibility to react to changing economic or investment conditions. In addition, increasingly we have certain private equity businesses that provide goods and services directly to consumers across a variety of industries. These businesses are prone to greater liabilities, as well as reputational, litigation and other risks by virtue of being more public-facing and reliant on their ability to develop and preserve consumer relationships and achieve consumer satisfaction.

Unfavorable economic conditions could negatively impact the ability of investee companies to repay debt. Even with our support, such adverse economic conditions facing our investee companies may adversely impact the value of our investments or deplete our financial or management resources. These investments are also subject to the risks inherent in

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;129

------

the underlying businesses, some of which are facing difficult business conditions and may continue to do so for the foreseeable future. These risks are compounded by recent growth, as new acquisitions have increased the scale and scope of our operations, including in new geographic areas and industry sectors, and we may have difficulty managing these additional operations.

We may invest in companies that are experiencing significant financial or business difficulties, including companies involved in work-outs, liquidations, spin-outs, reorganizations, bankruptcies and similar transactions. Such an investment entails the risk that the transaction will be unsuccessful, will take considerable time or will result in a distribution of cash or new securities, the value of which may be less than the purchase price of the securities in respect of which such distribution is received. In addition, if an anticipated transaction does not occur, we may be required to sell our investment at a loss. Investments in businesses we target may become subject to legal and/or regulatory proceedings and our investment may be adversely affected by external events beyond our control, leading to legal, indemnification or other expenses.

We have several companies that operate in the highly competitive service industry. A wide variety of micro and macroeconomic factors affecting our clients and over which we have no control can impact how these companies operate. For example, our Canadian residential mortgage insurer is subject to significant regulation and may be adversely affected by changes in government policy. The majority of the revenue from our healthcare services operation is derived from private health insurance funds, which may be affected by a deterioration in the economic climate, a change in economic incentives, increases in private health insurance premiums and other factors. In addition, alternative technologies in the health care industry could impact the demand for, or use of, our services and could impair or eliminate the competitive advantage of our businesses in this industry.

Our infrastructure services operations include companies in lottery services, marine transportation and work access services. Our lottery services operation is heavily dependent on long-term contracts and failure to win, maintain and renew these contracts could substantially impact revenue. Our lottery services operation also often requires entering into strategic relationships with third parties, including competitors, which we do not control, and which may have inconsistent business interests or goals from us. Marine transportation and oil production is inherently risky, particularly in the extreme conditions in which many of our vessels operate. An incident involving significant loss of product or environmental contamination by any of our vessels could harm our reputation and business. Our work access services business is subject to the risks inherent to construction operations, including risks relating to seasonal fluctuations in the demand for our services, a dependence on labor and performance being materially impacted by a lack of availability of labor force or increases in the cost of labor available, and operational hazards that could result in personal injury or death, work stoppage or serious property and equipment damage.

*aa) Real Estate*

*We face risks specific to our real estate activities.*

We invest in commercial properties and are therefore exposed to certain risks inherent in the commercial real estate business. Commercial real estate investments are subject to varying degrees of risk depending on the nature of the property. These risks include changes in general economic conditions (such as the availability and cost of mortgage capital), local conditions (such as an oversupply of space or a reduction in demand for real estate in the markets in which we operate), the attractiveness of the properties to tenants, competition from other landlords and our ability to provide adequate maintenance at an economical cost.

Certain expenditures, including property taxes, maintenance costs, mortgage payments, insurance costs and related charges, must be made whether or not a property is producing sufficient income to service these expenses. Our commercial properties are typically subject to mortgages that require debt service payments. If we become unable or unwilling to meet mortgage payments on any property, losses could be sustained as a result of the mortgagee's exercise of its rights of foreclosure or of sale.

Continuation of rental income is dependent on favorable leasing markets to ensure expiring leases are renewed and new tenants are found promptly to fill vacancies. It is possible that we may face a disproportionate amount of space expiring in any one year. Additionally, rental rates could decline, tenant bankruptcies could increase and tenant renewals may not be achieved, particularly in the event of an economic slowdown.

130&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

Our real estate business operates in industries or geographies that may be impacted by the local, regional, national or international outbreak of a contagious disease. Adverse impacts on our business may also include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a complete or partial closure of, or other operational issues at, one or more of our properties resulting from government or tenant action and climate change events including hurricanes, earthquakes, tsunamis and other natural and man-made disasters;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a slowdown in business activity may severely impact our tenants' businesses, financial condition and liquidity and may cause one or more of our tenants to be unable to fund their business operations, meet their obligations to us in full, or at all, or to otherwise seek modifications of such obligations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an increase in re-leasing timelines, potential delays in lease-up of vacant space and the market rates at which such lease will be executed;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reduced economic activity could result in a prolonged recession, which could negatively impact consumer discretionary spending; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• expected completion dates for our development and redevelopment projects may be subject to delay as a result of the disruption of local economic conditions.

Our retail real estate operations are susceptible to any economic factors that have a negative impact on consumer spending. Lower consumer spending would have an unfavorable effect on the sales of our retail tenants, which could result in their inability or unwillingness to make all payments owing to us, and on our ability to keep existing tenants and attract new tenants. Significant expenditures associated with each equity investment in real estate assets, such as mortgage payments, property taxes and maintenance costs, are generally not reduced when there is a reduction in income from the investment, so our income and cash flow would be adversely affected by a decline in income from our retail properties. In addition, low occupancy or sales at our retail properties, as a result of competition or otherwise, could result in termination of or reduced rent payable under certain of our retail leases, which could adversely affect our retail property revenues.

Our hospitality and multifamily businesses are subject to a range of operating risks common to these industries, many of which are outside our control, and the profitability of our investments in these industries may be adversely affected by these factors. For example, our hospitality business faces risks relating to climate change hurricanes, earthquakes, tsunamis and other natural and man-made disasters; the potential spread of contagious diseases; and insect infestations more common to rental accommodations. Such factors could limit or reduce the demand for or the prices our hospitality properties are able to obtain for their accommodations or could increase our costs and therefore reduce the profitability of our hospitality businesses. There are numerous housing alternatives that compete with our multifamily properties, including other multifamily properties as well as condominiums and single-family homes. This competitive environment could have a material adverse effect on our ability to lease apartment homes at our present properties or any newly developed or acquired real estate, as well as on the rents realized.

*We face risks specific to our residential development and mixed-use activities.*

Our residential homebuilding and land development operations are cyclical and significantly affected by changes in general and local economic, political and industry conditions, such as consumer confidence, employment levels, inflation levels, availability of financing for homebuyers, household debt, levels of new and existing homes for sale, demographic trends and housing demand. Competition from rental properties and resale homes, including homes held for sale by investors and foreclosed homes, may reduce our ability to sell new homes, depress prices and reduce margins for the sale of new homes.

Certain catastrophic events and supply chain disruptions may also result in a lack of availability or increased costs of required materials, utilities and resources which could delay or increase the cost of home construction and which could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Such events could result in construction delays and increased costs which may not be fully passed on to our buyers.

Virtually all of our homebuilding customers finance their home acquisitions through mortgages. Even if potential customers do not need financing, changes in interest rates or the unavailability of mortgage capital could make it harder for them to sell their homes to potential buyers who need financing, resulting in a reduced demand for new homes. Increases in

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;131

------

mortgage rates or reduced mortgage availability could adversely affect our ability to sell new homes and the prices at which we can sell them. Our Canadian markets continue to be impacted by changes to mortgage qualification rules that introduced stress tests for homebuyers and government policies relating to the Ontario real estate market and the Alberta energy sector surrounding pipeline approval. In the U.S., significant expenses incurred for purposes of owning a home, including mortgage interest expense and real estate taxes, generally are deductible expenses for an individual's U.S. federal and, in some cases, state income taxes.

The current economic environment also continues to impact the industry for retail and office properties in our mixed-use projects. As we depend on office, retail, and apartment tenants to generate income from these mixed-use projects, our results of operations and cash flows may be adversely affected by vacancies and tenant defaults or bankruptcy in our mixed-use properties, and we may be unable to renew leases or re-lease space in our mixed-use properties as leases expire.

We hold land for future development and may in the future acquire additional land holdings. The risks inherent in purchasing, owning and developing land increase as the demand for new homes decreases. Real estate markets are highly uncertain, and the value of undeveloped land has fluctuated significantly and may continue to fluctuate. In addition, land carrying costs can be significant and can result in losses or reduced profitability. As a result, we hold certain land, and may acquire additional land, in our development pipeline at a cost we may not be able to fully recover or at a cost which precludes profitable development.

Our residential development and mixed-use business is susceptible to adverse weather conditions, other environmental conditions, and natural disasters, as well as pandemics/epidemics, each of which could adversely affect our business and results of operations. For example, while none of our U.S. properties were materially adversely affected by the significant wildfires throughout Southern California, we could experience labor shortages, construction delays, or utility company delays, which in turn could impact our results.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES

Definitions of performance measures, including IFRS, non-IFRS and operating measures, are presented below in alphabetical order. We have specifically identified those measures which are IFRS or non-IFRS measures; the remainder are operating measures.

**Assets under management ("AUM")** refers to the total fair value of assets that our Asset Management business manages, on a gross asset value basis, including assets for which this business earns management fees and those for which they do not. AUM is calculated as follows: (i) for investments that Brookfield consolidates for accounting purposes or actively manages, including investments in which Brookfield or a controlled investment vehicle is the largest shareholder or the primary operator or manager, at 100% of the investment's total assets on a fair value basis; and (ii) for all other investments, at Brookfield's or its controlled investment vehicle's, as applicable, proportionate share of the investment's total assets on a fair value basis. Our Asset Management business' methodology for determining AUM may differ from the methodology employed by other alternative asset managers and Brookfield's AUM presented herein may differ from our AUM reflected in other public filings and/or our Form ADV and Form PF.

**Base management fees**, which are determined by contractual arrangements, are typically equal to a percentage of fee-bearing capital and are accrued quarterly. Base management fees, including private fund base fees and perpetual affiliate base fees, are IFRS measures.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;133

------

***Private fund base fees*** are typically earned on fee-bearing capital from third-party investors only and are earned on invested and/or uninvested fund capital, depending on the stage of the fund life.

***Perpetual affiliate base fees*** are earned on the total capitalization or net asset value of our perpetual affiliates, which includes our investment. Base fees for BEP include a quarterly fixed fee amount of $5 million, with additional fees of 1.25% on the increase in capitalization above their initial capitalization of $8 billion. Base fees for BIP and BBU are 1.25% of total capitalization. Base fees for BPG are 1.05% of net asset value, excluding its interests in private funds and investments which were held directly by Brookfield prior to the BPY privatization. Perpetual affiliate capitalization as at December 31, 2025, was as follows: BEP/BEPC – $26 billion; BIP/BIPC – $35 billion; BBU/BBUC – $9 billion; and BPG – $19 billion.

**Carry eligible capital** represents the capital committed, pledged or invested in the private funds that we manage and which entitle us to earn carried interest. The Corporation retains 100% of the carried interest earned on mature funds and is entitled to receive 33.3% of the carried interest on new funds of our Asset Management business. Carry eligible capital includes both invested and uninvested (i.e., uncalled) private fund amounts as well as those amounts invested directly by investors (co-investments) if those entitle us to earn carried interest. We believe this measure is useful to investors as it provides additional insight into the capital base upon which we have potential to earn carried interest once minimum investment returns are sufficiently assured.

**Carried interest** is a contractual arrangement whereby we receive a fixed percentage of profits generated within a private fund provided that the investors receive a predetermined minimum return. Carried interest is typically paid towards the end of the life of a fund after the capital has been returned to investors and may be subject to "clawback" until all investments have been monetized and minimum investment returns are sufficiently assured.

***Realized carried interest*** is an IFRS measure and represents our share of investment returns based on realized gains within a private fund. Realized carried interest earned is recognized when an underlying investment is profitably disposed of and the fund's cumulative returns are in excess of preferred returns, in accordance with the respective terms set out in the fund's governing agreements, and when the probability of clawback is remote. Realized carried interest is determined on third-party capital that is no longer subject to future investment performance. We include realized carried interest when determining our Asset Management segment results within our consolidated financial statements.

***Realized carried interest, net*** is a non-IFRS measure and represents realized carried interest after direct costs, which include employee expenses and cash taxes. A reconciliation of realized carried interest to realized carried interest, net, is shown below:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| FOR THE YEARS ENDED DEC. 31<br>(MILLIONS) | **2025** | 2024 |

| Less: direct costs associated with realized carried interest | **(503)** | (299) |
|  | **657** | 502 |
| Less: realized carried interest not attributable to Corporation | **(97)** | (99) |
| Realized carried interest, net | $**560** | $403 |

---

1. Includes $818 million of realized carried interest related to Oaktree (2024 – $591 million). For segment reporting, Oaktree's revenue is shown on a 100% basis.

**Consolidated capitalization** is a non-IFRS measure that reflects the full capitalization of wholly owned and partially owned entities that we consolidate in our financial statements. Our consolidated capitalization includes 100% of the debt of the consolidated entities even though in many cases we only own a portion of the entity and therefore our pro-rata exposure to this debt is much lower. In other cases, this basis of presentation excludes the debt of partially owned entities that are accounted for following the equity method.

**Core liquidity** represents the amount of cash, financial assets and undrawn credit lines at the Corporation, perpetual affiliates and directly held investments. We use core liquidity as a key measure of our ability to fund future transactions and capitalize on opportunities as they arise. Our core liquidity also allows us to backstop the transactions of our businesses as necessary and fund the development of new activities that are not yet suitable for our investors.

**Corporate capitalization** represents the amount of debt issued by the Corporation, accounts payable and deferred tax liability in our Corporate Activities segment as well as our issued and outstanding common and preferred shares.

134&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

**Debt to capitalization** is determined as the aggregate of corporate borrowings and non-recourse borrowings divided by total capitalization. Draws on revolving facilities and commercial paper issuances are excluded from the debt to capitalization ratios as they are not permanent sources of capital.

**Distributions (current rate)** represents the distributions that we would receive during the next twelve months based on the current distribution rates of the investments that we currently hold. The dividends from our listed investments are calculated by multiplying the number of shares held by the most recently announced distribution policy. Corporate cash and financial asset distribution is calculated as our targeted return on our cash and financial assets portfolio. Distributions on our unlisted investments are calculated based on the distributions received in the most recent fiscal year.

**Distributable earnings ("DE")** is a non-IFRS measure that provides insight into earnings received by the Corporation that are available for distribution to common shareholders or to be reinvested into the business. It is calculated as the sum of distributable earnings before realizations from our Asset Management business and our Wealth Solutions business, distributions received from our ownership of our Operating Businesses, realized carried interest and disposition gains from principal investments, net of Corporate Activities FFO, preferred share dividends and equity-based compensation costs.

Distributable earnings before realizations from our Asset Management business is comprised of fee-related earnings and other income (expenses), net of cash taxes and equity-based compensation costs from BAM, as well as FFO on direct investments.

Distributable earnings from our Wealth Solutions business is calculated as net income from our Wealth Solutions business, excluding the impact of depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes, net income from our equity accounted investments, mark-to-market on investments and derivatives, breakage and transaction costs, and is inclusive of our proportionate share of DE from investments in associates.

***Distributable earnings before realizations ("DE before realizations")*** is DE before realized carried interest and realized disposition gains from principal investments. We use DE before realizations to provide additional insight regarding recurring DE of the business.

1. Other non-FFO items correspond to amounts that are not directly related to revenue earning activities and are not normal or recurring items necessary for business operations. In addition, this adjustment is to back out non-FFO expenses (income) that are included in consolidated equity accounted income including depreciation and amortization, deferred taxes and fair value changes from equity accounted investments.

2. Amounts attributable to non-controlling interests are calculated based on the economic ownership interests held by non-controlling interests in consolidated subsidiaries. By adjusting FFO attributable to non-controlling interests, we are able to remove the portion of FFO earned at non-wholly owned subsidiaries that is not attributable to Brookfield.

We assess our segment performance using DE from our Asset Management segment, DE from our Wealth Solutions business, NOI from our Real Estate segment, and FFO for all other segments as our key measures of financial performance and our segment measures of profit and loss. Refer to Note 3 Segmented Information in our consolidated financial statements for a reconciliation of net income to segment measures of profit or loss.

**Economic ownership interest** represents the company's proportionate equity interest in our listed partnerships which can include redemption-exchange units ("REUs"), Class A limited partnership units, special limited partnership units and general partnership units in each subsidiary, where applicable, as well as any units or shares issued in subsidiaries that are exchangeable for units in our listed partnerships ("exchange units"). REUs and exchange units share the same economic attributes as the Class A limited partnership units in all respects except for our redemption right, which the listed partnership can satisfy through the issuance of Class A limited partnership units. The REUs, general partnership units and exchange units participate in earnings and distributions on a per unit basis equivalent to the per unit participation of the Class A limited partnership units of the subsidiary.

------

**Fee-bearing capital** represents the capital committed, pledged or invested in the perpetual affiliates, our Wealth Solutions business, private funds and liquid strategies that are managed by our Asset Management business manages which entitles that business to earn fee revenues. Fee-bearing capital includes both called ("invested") and uncalled ("pledged" or "committed") amounts. When reconciling period amounts, we utilize the following definitions:

• **Inflows** include capital commitments and contributions to our private and liquid strategies funds and equity issuances in our perpetual affiliates.

• **Outflows** represent distributions and redemptions of capital from within the liquid strategies capital.

• **Distributions** represent quarterly distributions from perpetual affiliates as well as returns of committed capital (excluding market valuation adjustments), redemptions and expiry of uncalled commitments within the private funds of our Asset Management business.

• **Market valuation** includes gains (losses) on portfolio investments, perpetual affiliates and liquid strategies based on market prices.

• **Other** includes changes in net non-recourse leverage included in the determination of perpetual affiliate capitalization and the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations on non-U.S. dollar commitments.

***Long-term private funds*** are long duration and closed-end in nature and include value-add and opportunistic strategies. Capital is typically committed for 10 years from the inception of the fund with two one-year extension options.

***Perpetual strategies*** include capital in our perpetual affiliates and perpetual private funds, which includes core and core plus strategies that can continually raise new capital.

***Liquid strategies*** represent publicly listed funds and separately managed accounts, focused on fixed income and equity securities across a number of difference sectors.

**Fee-related earnings** is a non-IFRS measure and is comprised of fee revenues less direct costs associated with earning those fees, which include employee expenses and professional fees as well as business related technology costs, other shared services and taxes. We use this measure to provide additional insight into the operating profitability of our Asset Management business. See the below table which reconciles fee revenues and fee-related earnings to revenue, the most comparable IFRS measure.

**Fee revenues** is a non-IFRS measure and includes base management fees, incentive distributions, performance fees and transaction fees presented within our Asset Management segment. Many of these items do not appear in consolidated revenues because they are earned from consolidated entities and are eliminated on consolidation. The following table reconciles fee revenues and fee-related earnings to revenue, the most comparable IFRS measure:

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;137

------

**Funds from operations ("FFO")** is a non-IFRS measure that includes the fees that we earn from our Asset Management business managing capital as well as our share of revenues earned and costs incurred within our operations, which include interest expense and other costs. Specifically, FFO includes the impact of contracts that we enter into to generate revenue, including asset management agreements, power sales agreements, contracts that our Operating Businesses enter into such as leases and take or pay contracts and sales of inventory. FFO also includes the impact of changes in borrowings or the cost of borrowings as well as other costs incurred to operate our business. FFO also includes realized disposition gains and losses, which are defined in this glossary of terms.

We use realized disposition gains and losses within FFO in order to provide additional insight regarding the performance of investments on a cumulative realized basis, including any unrealized fair value adjustments that were recorded in equity and not otherwise reflected in current period FFO, and believe it is useful to investors to better understand variances between reporting periods. We exclude depreciation and amortization from FFO as we believe that the value of most of our assets typically increases over time, provided we make the necessary maintenance expenditures, the timing and magnitude of which may differ from the amount of depreciation recorded in any given period. In addition, the depreciated cost base of our assets is reflected in the ultimate realized disposition gain or loss on disposal. As noted above, unrealized fair value changes are excluded from FFO until the period in which the asset is sold. We also exclude deferred income taxes from FFO because the vast majority of the company's deferred income tax assets and liabilities are a result of the revaluation of our assets under IFRS Accounting Standards.

Our definition of FFO differs from the definition used by other organizations, as well as the definition of FFO used by the Real Property Association of Canada ("REALPAC") and the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. ("NAREIT"), in part because the NAREIT definition is based on U.S. GAAP, as opposed to IFRS Accounting Standards. The key difference between our definition of FFO and the determination of FFO by REALPAC and/or NAREIT is that we include the following: realized disposition gains or losses and cash taxes payable or receivable on those gains or losses, if any; foreign exchange gains or losses on monetary items not forming part of our net investment in foreign operations; and foreign exchange gains or losses on the sale of an investment in a foreign operation. We do not use FFO as a measure of cash generated from our operations.

***Operating FFO*** is a non-IFRS measure calculated as FFO excluding realized disposition gains. We use Operating FFO to provide additional insight regarding the recurring performance of the business.

**Incentive distributions** are determined by contractual arrangements; incentive distributions are paid to our Asset Management business by BEP and BIP and represent a portion of distributions paid by perpetual affiliates above a predetermined hurdle. Incentive distributions are accrued on the record date of the associated distributions of the entity.

A summary of our distribution hurdles and current distribution rates is as follows:

3. Incentive distributions from Brookfield Infrastructure are earned on distributions made by BIP and BIPC.

4. Incentive distributions from Brookfield Renewable are earned on distributions made by BEP and BEPC.

**Invested capital** consists of our perpetual investments, which include our interests in BAM and perpetual affiliates, other investments and corporate activities. Our invested capital provides us with FFO and cash distributions.

***Invested capital, net*** consists of invested capital and leverage.

**Leverage** represents the amount of corporate borrowings and perpetual preferred shares held by the company.

**Long-term average ("LTA") generation** is used in our Renewable Power and Transition segment and is determined based on expected electrical generation from its assets in commercial operation during the year. For assets acquired, or reaching commercial operation during the year, LTA generation is calculated from the acquisition or commercial operation date. In Brazil, assured generation levels are used as a proxy for LTA. We compare LTA generation to actual generation levels to assess the impact on revenues and FFO of hydrology, wind generation levels and irradiance, which vary from one period to the next.

**Net operating income ("NOI")** is a key measure of our Real Estate segment's financial performance and is defined as property-specific revenues less direct operating expenses before the impact of depreciation and amortization. Refer to Note 3 Segmented Information in our consolidated financial statements for a reconciliation of net income to segment measures of profit or loss.

**Performance fees** is an IFRS measure. Performance fees are generated by our Asset Management business when the unit price performance of BBU exceeds a prescribed high-water mark. In addition, performance fees are earned on certain liquid strategy portfolios. BBU performance fees are based on the quarterly volume-weighted average increase in BBU unit price over the previous threshold and are accrued on a quarterly basis, whereas performance fees within liquid strategy funds are typically determined on an annual basis. These fees are not subject to clawback.

**Proportionate basis generation** is used in our Renewable Power and Transition segment to describe the total amount of power generated by facilities held by BEP, at BEP's respective economic ownership interest percentage.

**Realized disposition gains/losses** is a component of FFO and includes gains or losses arising from transactions during the reporting period together with any fair value changes and revaluation surplus recorded in prior periods, and are presented net of cash taxes payable or receivable. Realized disposition gains include amounts that are recorded in net income, other comprehensive income and as ownership changes in our consolidated statements of equity, and exclude amounts attributable to non-controlling interests unless otherwise noted.

**Same-store or same-property** represents the earnings contribution from assets or investments held throughout both the current and prior reporting period on a constant ownership basis. We utilize same-store analysis to illustrate the growth in earnings excluding the impact of acquisitions or dispositions.

**Unrealized carried interest** is the change in accumulated unrealized carried interest from prior period and represents the amount of carried interest generated during the period. We use this measure to provide insight into the value our investments have created in the period.

***Accumulated unrealized carried interest*** is based on carried interest that would be receivable under the contractual formula at the period end date as if a fund was liquidated and all investments had been monetized at the values recorded on that date. We use this measure to provide insight into our potential to realize carried interest in the future.

***Accumulated unrealized carried interest, net*** is after direct costs, which include employee expenses and taxes.

**MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING** 

Management of Brookfield Corporation (Brookfield) is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer and effected by the Board of Directors, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS<sup>®</sup> Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board as defined in Regulation 240.13a-15(f) or 240.15d-15(f).

Management assessed the effectiveness of Brookfield's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on the criteria set forth in *Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013)* issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management concludes that, as of December 31, 2025, Brookfield's internal control over financial reporting is effective. Management excluded from its assessment the internal control over financial reporting at Colonial Enterprises Inc., Hotwire Communications Ltd., Geronimo Power, LLC, a fully integrated developer and operator of renewable power assets in the U.S. with 3.9 GW operating assets and 30 GW development pipeline, a leading specialty consumables and equipment manufacturer and a electric heat tracing systems manufacturer, which were acquired during 2025, and whose total assets, net assets, revenues and net income constitute approximately 5%, 6%, 3% and -1%, respectively, of the consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Brookfield's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, has been audited by Deloitte LLP, the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, who also audited Brookfield's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.

**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM** 

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Brookfield Corporation

**Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting** 

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Brookfield Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Corporation") as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in *Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)* issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Corporation maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in *Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)* issued by COSO.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2025 of the Corporation and our report dated March 17, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

As described in Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, management excluded from its assessment the internal control over financial reporting at Colonial Enterprises Inc., Hotwire Communications Ltd., Geronimo Power, LLC, a fully integrated developer and operator of renewable power assets in the U.S. with 3.9 GW operating assets and 30 GW development pipeline, a leading specialty consumables and equipment manufacturer and a electric heat tracing systems manufacturer (the "current year acquisitions") which were acquired during 2025, and whose financial statements constitute, in aggregate, 5% of total assets, 6% of net assets, 3% of revenues, and -1% of net income of the consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025. Accordingly, our audit did not include the internal control over financial reporting at the current year acquisitions.

**Basis for Opinion**

The Corporation's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Corporation in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting** 

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM** 

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Brookfield Corporation

**Opinion on the Financial Statements**

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Brookfield Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Corporation") as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows, for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Corporation as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and its financial performance and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in *Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)* issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 17, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting.

**Basis for Opinion**

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Corporation's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Corporation in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**Critical Audit Matter**

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

***Fair Value of Investment Properties and Property, Plant and Equipment – Refer to Notes 2(g)(i), 2(g)(ii), 11, and 12 to the financial statements***

*Critical Audit Matter Description*

The Corporation has elected the fair value model for investment properties and the revaluation model for certain classes of property, plant and equipment, namely the Corporation's utilities, transport, midstream, data and renewable power generating assets. Upon initial recognition of these assets, the purchase price of each acquisition is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values. Subsequent to initial recognition, the Corporation measures these assets at fair value or revalued amount.

A selection of investment properties and certain classes of property, plant and equipment have limited observable market activity, which requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions in the determination of fair value at both the date of acquisition and at the measurement date. The estimates and assumptions with the highest degree of subjectivity and impact on fair values are future expected market rents, terminal capitalization rates, discount rates, terminal value multiples, future electricity prices, terminal value, anticipated long-term average generation, and estimated operating and capital expenditures. Auditing these estimates and assumptions required a high degree of auditor judgment as the estimations made by management contain significant measurement uncertainty. This resulted in an increased extent of audit effort, including the need to involve fair value specialists.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;143

------

*How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit* 

Our audit procedures related to future expected market rents, terminal capitalization rates, discount rates, terminal value multiples, future electricity prices, terminal value, anticipated long-term average generation and estimated operating and capital expenditures included the following, among others:

• Evaluated the effectiveness of controls, including those over the estimates of future expected market rents, terminal capitalization rates, discount rates, terminal value multiples, future electricity prices, terminal values, anticipated long-term average generation and operating and capital expenditures.

• Evaluated the reasonableness of management's forecast of future expected market rents by comparing management's forecasts with historical results, internal communications to management and the Board of Directors and contractual information, where applicable. With the assistance of fair value specialists, evaluated the reasonableness of management's forecasts of future expected market rents and estimates of terminal capitalization rates by considering recent market transactions and industry surveys.

• With the assistance of fair value specialists, evaluated the reasonableness of the discount rates by (1) testing the source information underlying the determination of the discount rates; (2) developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to the discount rates selected by management; (3) considering recent market transactions and industry surveys and (4) considering benchmark interest rates, geographic location, whether the asset is contracted or uncontracted and type of technology; where applicable.

• With the assistance of fair value specialists, evaluated the reasonableness of terminal value multiples by testing the source information underlying the terminal value multiples and developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to the terminal value multiples selected by management.

• With the assistance of fair value specialists, inspected management's valuation analysis and assessed the estimates of future electricity prices by reference to shorter-term broker price quotes and management's longer-term market forecasts specific to each region and power generating asset.

• Involved fair value specialists in the evaluation of the terminal values which included consideration of benchmark interest rates, geographic location, whether the asset is contracted or uncontracted and type of technology.

• For a sample of power generating assets, agreed contracted power prices to executed power purchase agreements and assessed the anticipated long-term average generation through corroboration with third party engineering reports and historical trends.

• Assessed the estimated operating and capital expenditures by comparison to historical data and to third party data for a selection of assets through corroboration with third party engineering reports.

The registered office of the Corporation is Brookfield Place, 181 Bay Street, Suite 100, Toronto, Ontario, M5J 2T3.

**Capital Management**

The Corporation utilizes its capital to manage the business in a number of ways, including operating performance, value creation, credit metrics and capital efficiency. The Corporation's capital is closely tracked and monitored by the company's key management personnel and evaluated relative to management's objectives. The primary goal of the company is to earn a 15%+ return compounded over the long-term while always maintaining excess capital to support ongoing operations.

The Corporation's capital consists of the capital invested in its Asset Management business, investments in its operating businesses, its Wealth Solutions business, its corporate investments that are held outside of managed entities, and its net working capital. The Corporation's capital is funded with common equity, preferred equity and corporate borrowings issued by the Corporation.

As at December 31, 2025, the Corporation's capital totaled $62.4 billion (December 31, 2024 – $60.4 billion), and is computed as follows:

**2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION**

**a)Statement of Compliance**

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS<sup>®</sup> Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB").

These consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors of the company on March 17, 2026.

**b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Future Changes in Accounting Standards**

***i.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Amendments to IFRS 9, Financial Instruments ("IFRS 9") and IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures ("IFRS 7") - Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments***

In May 2024, the IASB issued amendments which clarify the requirements for the timing of recognition and derecognition of financial liabilities settled through an electronic cash transfer system, add further guidance for assessing the contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets with contingent features, and add new or amended disclosures relating to investments in equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income and financial instruments with contingent features. The amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 are effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of these amendments is not anticipated to have a significant impact on the financial position of the Corporation.

***ii.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure of Financial Statements ("IFRS 18")***

In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18 to replace IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements ("IAS 1"). IFRS 18 is effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, with early adoption permitted. IFRS 18 aims to improve financial reporting by requiring additional defined subtotals in the statement of profit or loss, requiring disclosures about management defined performance measures, and adding new principles for the aggregation and disaggregation of items. The Corporation is currently assessing the impact of this new standard.

There are currently no other future changes to IFRS Accounting Standards with expected material impacts on the company.

**c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Basis of Presentation**

The consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis.

***i.*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*Subsidiaries***

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the company and its subsidiaries, which are the entities over which the company exercises control. Control exists when the company is able to exercise power over the investee, is exposed to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of its returns. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date control is obtained and continue to be consolidated until the date when control is lost. The company includes 100% of its subsidiaries' revenues and expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and 100% of its subsidiaries' assets and liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, with non-controlling interests in the equity of the company's subsidiaries included within total equity. All intercompany balances, transactions, unrealized gains and losses are eliminated in full.

The company continually reassesses whether or not it controls an investee, particularly if facts and circumstances indicate there is a change to one or more of the control criteria previously mentioned. In certain circumstances when the company has less than a majority of the voting rights of an investee, it has power over the investee when the voting rights are sufficient to give it the practical ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee unilaterally. The company considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether or not the company's voting rights are sufficient to give it control of an investee.

Certain of the company's subsidiaries are subject to profit sharing arrangements, such as carried interest, between the company and the non-controlling equity holders, whereby the company is entitled to a participation in profits, as determined under the agreements. The attribution of net income amongst equity holders in these subsidiaries reflects the impact of these profit-sharing arrangements when the attribution of profits as determined in the agreement is no longer subject to adjustment based on future events and correspondingly reduces non-controlling interests' attributable share of those profits, while increasing those of common shareholders.

Gains or losses resulting from changes in the company's ownership interest of a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions and are recorded within ownership changes as a component of equity. When we dispose of all or part of a subsidiary resulting in a loss of control, the difference between the carrying value of what is sold and the proceeds from disposition is recognized within other income and gains in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;153

------

Refer to Note 2(q) for an explanation of the company's accounting policy for business combinations and to Note 4 for additional information on subsidiaries of the company with significant non-controlling interests.

***ii.*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*Associates and Joint Ventures***

Associates are entities over which the company exercises significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but without control or joint control over those policies. Joint ventures are joint arrangements whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have the rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control over an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. The company accounts for associates and joint ventures using the equity method of accounting within equity accounted investments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Interests in associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method are initially recognized at cost. At the time of initial recognition, if the cost of the associate or joint venture is lower than the proportionate share of the investment's underlying fair value, the company records a gain on the difference between the cost and the underlying fair value of the investment in net income. If the cost of the associate or joint venture is greater than the company's proportionate share of the underlying fair value, goodwill relating to the associate or joint venture is included in the carrying amount of the investment. Subsequent to initial recognition, the carrying value of the company's interest in an associate or joint venture is adjusted for the company's share of direct comprehensive income and distributions of the investee. Profits and losses resulting from the sale of a business to an associate or joint venture are recognized in full in the consolidated financial statements. Profits and losses resulting from all other transactions with an associate or joint venture that do not constitute the sale of a business are recognized in the consolidated financial statements based on the interests of unrelated investors in the investee. The carrying value of associates or joint ventures is assessed for indicators of impairment at each balance sheet date. Impairment losses on equity accounted investments may be subsequently reversed in net income. Further information on the impairment of long-lived assets is available in Note 2(l).

***iii.*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*Joint Operations***

A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, related to the arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement that exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of parties sharing control. The company recognizes only its assets, liabilities and share of the results of operations of the joint operation. The assets, liabilities and results of joint operations are included within the respective line items of the Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

When the company sells or contributes assets to a joint operation in which it is a joint operator, the company is considered to be conducting transactions with the other parties to the joint operation, and any profits or losses resulting from the transactions are recognized in the company's consolidated financial statements only to the extent of the other parties' interests in the joint operation. When the company purchases an asset from a joint operation in which it is a joint operator, the company does not recognize its share of the profits or losses until those assets are resold to a third party.

**d) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Foreign Currency Translation**

The U.S. dollar is the functional and presentation currency of the company. Each of the company's subsidiaries, associates, joint ventures and joint operations determines its own functional currency and items included in the consolidated financial statements of each subsidiary, associate, joint venture and joint operation are measured using that functional currency.

Assets and liabilities of foreign operations having functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing at the reporting date and revenues and expenses at average rates during the period. Gains or losses on translation are accumulated in other comprehensive income or loss as a component of equity. On the disposal of a foreign operation, or the loss of control, joint control or significant influence, the component of accumulated other comprehensive income relating to that foreign operation is reclassified to net income. Gains or losses on foreign currency-denominated balances and transactions that are designated as hedges of net investments in these operations are reported in the same manner. On partial disposal of a foreign operation in which control is retained, the proportionate share of the component of other comprehensive income or loss relating to that foreign operation is reclassified to non-controlling interests in that foreign operation.

154&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

Foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities of the company are translated using the rate of exchange prevailing at the reporting date, and non-monetary assets and liabilities measured at fair value are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Revenues and expenses are measured at average rates during the period. Gains or losses on translation of these items are included in net income. Gains or losses on transactions that hedge these items are also included in net income. Foreign currency denominated non-monetary assets and liabilities, measured at historic cost, are translated at the rate of exchange at the transaction date.

**e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cash and Cash Equivalents**

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits and highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less.

**f) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Related Party Transactions**

In the normal course of operations, the company enters into various transactions on market terms with related parties. The majority of transactions with related parties are between consolidated entities and eliminate on consolidation. The company and its subsidiaries may also transact with entities over which the company has significant influence or joint control, such as Brookfield Wealth Solutions. Amounts owed to and by associates and joint ventures are not eliminated on consolidation. The company's subsidiaries with significant non-controlling interests are described in Note 4 and its associates and joint ventures are described in Note 10.

In addition to our subsidiaries and equity accounted investments, we consider key management personnel, the Board of Directors and material shareholders to be related parties. See Note 27 for additional details.

**g)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Operating Assets**

***i.*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*Investment Properties***

The company uses the fair value method to account for real estate classified as investment properties. A property is determined to be an investment property when it is principally held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation, or both. Investment properties also include properties that are under development or redevelopment for future use as investment property. Investment properties are initially measured at cost including transaction costs, or at fair value if acquired in a business combination. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are carried at fair value. Gains or losses arising from changes in fair value are included in net income during the period in which they arise.

Fair values are completed by undertaking one of two accepted approaches: (i) discounting the expected future cash flows, generally over a term of 10 years including a terminal value based on the application of a capitalization rate to estimated year 11 cash flows, typically used for our office, retail and logistics assets; or (ii) undertaking a direct capitalization approach for certain of our LP investments and directly held multifamily assets whereby a capitalization rate is applied to stabilized net operating income. The future cash flows of each property are based upon, among other things, rental income from current leases and assumptions about rental income from future leases reflecting current conditions, less future cash outflows relating to such current and future leases.

Commercial developments are also measured using a discounted cash flow model, net of costs to complete, as of the balance sheet date. Development sites in the planning phases are measured using comparable market values for similar assets.

***ii.*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*Property, Plant and Equipment***

The company uses the revaluation method of accounting for certain classes of property, plant and equipment ("PP&E") as well as certain assets which are under development for future use as PP&E. PP&E measured using the revaluation method is initially measured at cost, or at fair value if acquired in a business combination, and subsequently carried at its revalued amount, being the fair value at the date of the revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Revaluations are performed on an annual basis at the end of each fiscal year, commencing in the first year subsequent to the date of acquisition, unless there is an indication that assets are impaired. Where the carrying amount of an asset increases as a result of a revaluation, the increase is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity in revaluation surplus, unless the increase reverses a previously recognized revaluation loss recorded through net income, in which case that portion of the increase is recognized in net income.

Where the carrying amount of an asset decreases, the decrease is recognized in other comprehensive income to the extent there is any balance existing in revaluation surplus in respect of the asset, with the remainder of the decrease recognized in net income. Depreciation of an asset commences when it is available for use. On loss of control or partial disposition of an asset measured using

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;155

------

the revaluation method, all accumulated revaluation surplus or the portion disposed of, respectively, is transferred into retained earnings or ownership changes, respectively.

Land is carried at cost whereas finite-life assets such as buildings and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on a systematic basis over the assets' useful life.

Depreciation methods and useful lives are reassessed at least annually regardless of the measurement method used.

*Renewable Power and Transition*

Renewable Power and Transition generally determines the fair value of its PP&E by using a 20-year discounted cash flow model for hydroelectric assets and the estimated remaining useful life for other technologies. This model incorporates future cash flows from long-term power purchase agreements that are in place where it is determined that the power purchase agreements are linked specifically to the related power generating assets. The model also includes estimates of future electricity prices, anticipated long-term average generation, estimated operating and capital expenditures, terminal values and assumptions about future inflation rates and discount rates by geographical location.

Depreciation on renewable power assets is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated service lives of the assets, which are as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| (YEARS) | Useful Lives |
| Dams | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Up to 115 |
| Penstocks | Up to 100 |
| Powerhouses | Up to 115 |
| Hydroelectric generating units | Up to 115 |
| Wind generating units | Up to 35 |
| Solar generating units | Up to 35 |
| Gas-fired cogenerating ("Cogeneration") units | Up to 40 |
| Battery energy storage systems | Up to 30 |
| Other assets | Up to 60 |

---

Costs are allocated to the significant components of power generating assets and each component is depreciated separately.

The depreciation of PP&E in our Brazilian Renewable Power and Transition operations is based on the duration of the authorization or the useful life of a concession asset. The weighted-average remaining duration as at December 31, 2025 is 30 years (2024 – 30 years). Land rights are included as part of the concession or authorization and are subject to depreciation.

*Infrastructure* 

Utilities, transport, midstream and data assets within our Infrastructure segment as well as assets under development classified as PP&E on the Consolidated Balance Sheet are accounted for using the revaluation method. The company determines the fair value of its utilities, transport, midstream and data assets using both the discounted cash flow and depreciated replacement cost methods, using valuation techniques and significant inputs disclosed in Note 12.

156&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

Depreciation on utilities, transport, midstream and data assets is calculated on a straight-line or declining balance basis over the estimated service lives of the components of the assets, which are as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| (YEARS) | Useful Lives |
| Buildings | Up to 60 |
| Transmission stations, towers and related fixtures | Up to 50 |
| Leasehold improvements | Up to 50 |
| Plant and equipment | Up to 60 |
| Network systems | Up to 60 |
| Track | Up to 40 |
| Intermodal containers | Up to 20 |
| Pipelines and gas storage assets | Up to 80 |

---

*Private Equity*

The company accounts for its Private Equity PP&E using the cost model. PP&E held in our Private Equity segment, which include right-of-use ("ROU") assets, are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Costs include expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. Depreciation of an asset commences when it is available for use. PP&E is depreciated for each component of the following asset classes as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| (YEARS, UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED) | Useful Lives |
| Buildings | Up to 50 |
| Right-of-use assets | Up to 40  |
| Machinery and equipment | Up to 25 |
| Vessels | Up to 35 |
| Oil and gas related equipment and mining property | Units of production |

---

*Real Estate and Other*

Hospitality assets are classified as PP&E and are accounted for using the revaluation method. The company determines the fair value for these assets by using a depreciated replacement cost method based on the age, physical condition and the construction costs of the assets.

Depreciation on hospitality assets is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each component of the asset as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| (YEARS) | Useful Lives |
| Building and building improvements | 2 to 50+ |
| Land improvements | 15 |
| Furniture, fixtures and equipment | 1 to 20 |

---

***iii.*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*Inventory***

*Real Estate* 

Develop-for-sale multifamily projects, residential development lots, homes and residential condominium projects, and industrial projects are recorded in inventory. Inventory is recorded at the lower of cost, which includes pre-development expenditures and capitalized borrowing costs and net realizable value, which the company determines as the estimated selling price of the inventory in the ordinary course of business in its completed state, less estimated expenses, including holding costs, costs to complete and costs to sell.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;157

------

*Private Equity*

Inventory is primarily attributable to raw materials and consumables, work in progress, and finished goods at our advanced energy storage operation and engineered components manufacturing operation. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using specific identification where possible and practicable or using the first-in, first-out or weighted average method. Costs include direct and indirect expenditures incurred in bringing the inventory to its existing condition and location. Net realizable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

**h)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Fair Value Measurement** 

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the company takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.

Fair value measurement is disaggregated into three hierarchical levels: Level 1, 2 or 3. Fair value hierarchical levels are directly based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurement are observable. The levels are as follows:

Level 1:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

Level 2:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level 1) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the asset or liability's anticipated life.

Level 3:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Inputs are unobservable and reflect management's best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs in determining the estimate.

Refer to the investment properties and revaluation of PP&E accounting policies for the approach taken to determine the fair value of these operating assets.

Further information on fair value measurements is available in Notes 6, 11 and 12.

**i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Accounts Receivable** 

Trade receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any allowance for expected credit losses for uncollectibility.

**j)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Intangible Assets** 

Finite life intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses and are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Amortization is recorded within direct costs in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Certain of the company's intangible assets have an indefinite life as there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the asset is expected to generate cash flows. Indefinite life intangible assets are recorded at cost unless an impairment is identified which requires a write-down to its recoverable amount.

Indefinite life intangible assets are evaluated for impairment annually or more often if events or circumstances indicate there may be an impairment. Any impairment of the company's indefinite life intangible assets is recorded in net income in the period in which the impairment is identified. Impairment losses on intangible assets may be subsequently reversed in net income.

Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any, and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in other income and gains when the asset is derecognized.

*Infrastructure*

Intangible assets within our Infrastructure segment primarily consist of conservancy rights, service concession arrangements, customer order backlogs, track access rights, operating network agreements and customer contracts and relationships. Concession arrangements, accounted for as intangible assets under IFRIC 12, Service Concession Arrangements ("IFRIC 12"), were mostly acquired through

158&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

acquisitions of gas transmission, electricity transmission and toll road businesses and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the arrangement. Public service concessions that provide the right to charge users for a service in which the service and fee is regulated by the grantor are accounted for as intangible assets.

The intangible assets at the Brazilian regulated gas transmission operation and Brazilian electricity transmission operation relate to concession arrangements. For our Brazilian regulated gas transmission operation, the concession arrangement provides the operation with the right to operate the asset perpetually. As a result, the intangible asset is amortized over its estimated useful life. For our Brazilian electricity transmission operation, the intangible asset is amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contractual arrangement.

Refer to Note 13 for additional information on these concession arrangements.

*Private Equity*

Our Private Equity segment includes intangible assets across a number of operating companies. The majority are finite life intangible assets that are amortized on a straight-line basis over the following useful lives:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| (YEARS) | Useful Lives |
| Water and sewage concession agreements | Up to 50 |
| Brands and trademarks | Up to 40 |
| Computer software | Up to 10 |
| Customer relationships | Up to 20 |
| Proprietary technology | Up to 15 |

---

*Real Estate*

Intangible assets in our Real Estate segment are primarily trademarks and licensing agreements. Subsequent to initial recognition, intangible assets with a finite life are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. Amortization is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the intangible asset and is recognized in net income for the respective reporting period. Indefinite life intangible assets are recorded at cost unless an impairment is identified which requires a write-down to its recoverable amount.

**k)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Goodwill** 

Goodwill represents the excess of the price paid for the acquisition of an entity over the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired. Goodwill is allocated to the cash-generating unit to which it relates. The company identifies cash-generating units as identifiable groups of assets that generate cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.

Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually or more often if events or circumstances indicate there may be an impairment. Impairment is determined for goodwill by assessing if the carrying value of a cash-generating unit, including the allocated goodwill, exceeds its recoverable amount determined as the greater of the estimated fair value less costs to sell and the value in use. Impairment losses recognized in respect of a cash-generating unit are first allocated to the carrying value of goodwill and any excess is allocated to the carrying amount of assets in the cash-generating unit. Any goodwill impairment is recorded in net income in the period in which the impairment is identified. Impairment losses on goodwill are not subsequently reversed. On disposal of a subsidiary, any attributable amount of goodwill is included in determination of the gain or loss on disposal.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;159

------

**l)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Impairment of Long-Lived Assets** 

At each balance sheet date or more often if events or circumstances indicate there may be impairment, the company assesses whether its assets, other than those measured at fair value with changes in value recorded in net income, have any indication of impairment. An impairment is recognized if the recoverable amount, determined as the higher of the estimated fair value less costs of disposal and the discounted future cash flows generated from use and eventual disposal from an asset or cash-generating unit, is less than their carrying value. Impairment losses are recorded as fair value changes within the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The projections of future cash flows take into account the relevant operating plans and management's best estimate of the most probable set of conditions anticipated to prevail. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is increased to the lesser of the revised estimate of its recoverable amount and the carrying amount that would have been recorded had no impairment loss been recognized previously.

**m)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Subsidiary Equity Obligations** 

Subsidiary equity obligations include subsidiary preferred equity units, subsidiary preferred shares and capital securities as well as limited-life funds and redeemable fund units.

Subsidiary preferred equity units and capital securities are preferred shares that may be settled by a variable number of common equity units upon their conversion by the holders or the company. These instruments, as well as the related accrued distributions, are classified as liabilities at amortized cost on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Dividends or yield distributions on these instruments are recorded as interest expense. To the extent conversion features are not closely related to the underlying liability the instruments are bifurcated into debt and equity components.

Limited-life funds represent the interests of others in the company's consolidated funds that have a defined maximum fixed life where the company has an obligation to distribute the residual interests of the fund to fund partners based on their proportionate share of the fund's equity in the form of cash or other financial assets at cessation of the fund's life.

Redeemable fund units represent interests of others in consolidated subsidiaries that have a redemption feature that requires the company to deliver cash or other financial assets to the holders of the units upon receiving a redemption notice.

Limited-life funds and redeemable fund units are classified as liabilities and recorded at fair value within subsidiary equity obligations on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in fair value are recorded in net income in the period of the change.

**n)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Revenue from Contracts with Customers** 

IFRS 15 *Revenue from Contracts with Customers* ("IFRS 15"), specifies how and when revenue should be recognized and requires disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows arising from customer contracts.

Where available, the company has elected the practical expedient available under IFRS 15 for measuring progress toward complete satisfaction of performance obligation and for disclosure requirements of remaining performance obligations. This permits the company to recognize revenue in the amount to which we have the right to invoice such that the company has a right to the consideration in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer for performance completed to date.

***Revenue Recognition Policies by Segment***

Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service (or a bundle of goods and services) to the customer and is the unit of account in IFRS 15. A contract's transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue, as, or when, the performance obligation is satisfied. The company recognizes revenue when it transfers control of a product or service to a customer.

The company recognizes revenue from the following major sources:

*Asset Management*

The company's primary asset management revenue streams, which include base management fees, incentive fees (including incentive distributions and performance fees) and realized carried interest, are satisfied over time. A significant portion of our asset management revenue is intercompany in nature and thus eliminated on consolidation; that which survives is recorded as revenue in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

160&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

The company earns base management fees in accordance with contractual arrangements with our long-term private funds, perpetual strategies and liquid securities' investment vehicles. Fees are typically equal to a percentage of fee-bearing capital within the respective fund or entity and are accrued quarterly. These fees are earned over the period of time that the management services are provided and are allocated to the distinct services provided by the company during the reporting period.

Incentive distributions and performance fees are incentive payments to reward the company for meeting or exceeding certain performance thresholds of managed entities. Incentive distributions, paid to us by certain of our perpetual affiliates, are determined by contractual arrangements and represent a portion of distributions paid by the perpetual affiliates above a predetermined hurdle. They are accrued as revenue on the respective affiliates' distribution record dates if that hurdle has been achieved. Brookfield Business Partners L.P. ("BBU") pays performance fees if the growth in its unit price exceeds a predetermined threshold, with the unit price based on the quarterly volume-weighted average price of publicly traded units. These fees are accrued on a quarterly basis subject to the performance of the respective listed vehicle.

Carried interest is a performance fee arrangement in which we receive a percentage of investment returns, generated within a private fund on carry eligible capital, based on a contractual formula. We are eligible to earn carried interest from a fund once realized returns exceed the fund's contractually defined performance hurdles at which point we earn an accelerated percentage of the additional fund profit until we have earned the percentage of total fund profit, net of fees and expenses, to which we are entitled. We recognize this carried interest when a fund's cumulative realized returns are in excess of preferred returns and when it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur. Typically carried interest is not recognized as revenue until the fund is near the end of its life.

*Renewable Power and Transition*

The majority of revenue is derived from the sale of power and power related ancillary services both under contract and in the open market, sourced from their own power generating facilities. Revenue is recorded based on the output delivered and capacity provided at rates specified under contract terms or at prevailing market rates if the sale is uncontracted. Performance obligations are satisfied over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes benefits as we deliver electricity and related products.

We also sell power and related products under bundled arrangements. Energy, capacity and renewable credits within power purchase agreements ("PPA") are considered to be distinct performance obligations. A contract's transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue over time as the performance obligation is satisfied. The sale of energy and capacity are distinct goods that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer as measured by the output method. Renewable credits are performance obligations satisfied at a point in time. Measurement of satisfaction and transfer of control to the customer of renewable credits in a bundled arrangement coincides with the pattern of revenue recognition of the underlying energy generation.

*Infrastructure*

Our infrastructure revenue is predominantly recognized over time as services are rendered. Performance obligations are satisfied based on actual usage or throughput depending on the terms of the arrangement. Contract progress is determined using a cost-to-cost input method. Any upfront payments that are separable from the recurring revenue are recognized over time for the period the services are provided.

*Private Equity*

Revenue from our Private Equity segment primarily consists of: (i) sale of goods or products which is recognized as revenue when the product is shipped and title passes to the customer; (ii) the provision of services which are recognized as revenue over the period of time that they are provided; and (iii) leasing and other product offerings which is recognized under the requirements of IFRS 16, *Leases* ("IFRS 16"), whereas the other revenue streams are recognized under IFRS 15.

Revenue recognized over a period of time is determined using the cost-to-cost input method to measure progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligations as the work performed on the contracts creates or enhances an asset that is controlled by the customer. As work is performed, a contract asset in the form of contracts-in-progress is recognized, which is reclassified to accounts receivable when invoiced to the customer. If payment is received in advance of work being completed, a contract liability is recognized. Variable consideration, such as claims, incentives and variations resulting from contract modifications, is only recognized in the transaction price to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;161

------

*Real Estate*

Revenue from hospitality operations is generated by providing accommodation, food and beverage and leisure facilities to hotel guests. Revenue from accommodation is recognized over the period that the guest stays at the hotel; food and beverage revenue as well as revenue from leisure activities is recognized when goods and services are provided.

Real estate rental income is recognized in accordance with IFRS 16. As the company retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of its investment properties, it accounts for leases with its tenants as operating leases and begins recognizing revenue when the tenant has a right to use the leased asset. The total amount of contractual rent to be received from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease; a straight-line or free rent receivable, as applicable, is recorded as a component of investment property representing the difference between rental revenue recorded and the contractual amount received. Percentage participating rents are recognized when tenants' specified sales targets have been met.

Revenue from residential land sales, sales of homes and the completion of residential condominium projects is recognized at the point in time when our performance obligations are met. Performance obligations are satisfied when we transfer title of a product to a customer and all material conditions of the sales contract have been met. If title of a property transfers but material future development is required, revenue will be delayed until the point in time at which the remaining performance obligations are satisfied.

*Corporate Activities*

Dividend and interest income from other financial assets are recognized as revenue when declared or on an accrual basis using the effective interest method, in accordance with IFRS 9 *Financial Instruments* ("IFRS 9").

Interest revenue from loans and notes receivable, less a provision for uncollectible amounts, is recorded on the accrual basis using the effective interest method, in accordance with IFRS 9.

**o)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Financial Instruments** 

***Classification of Financial Instruments***

The company classifies its financial assets as fair value through profit and loss ("FVTPL"), fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI") and amortized cost according to the company's business objectives for managing the financial assets and based on the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset. The company classifies its financial liabilities as amortized cost or FVTPL.

• Financial instruments that are not held for the sole purpose of collecting contractual cash flows are classified as FVTPL and are initially recognized at their fair value and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Gains and losses recorded on each revaluation date are recognized within profit or loss. Transaction costs of financial assets classified as FVTPL are expensed in profit or loss.

• Financial assets classified as FVTOCI are initially recognized at their fair value and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. The change in fair value is recorded in other comprehensive income. The cumulative gains or losses related to FVTOCI equity instruments are not reclassified to profit or loss on disposal. The cumulative gains or losses on all other FVTOCI assets are reclassified to profit or loss on disposal when there is a significant or prolonged decline in fair value or when the company acquires a controlling or significant interest in the underlying investment and commences equity accounting or consolidating the investment. The cumulative gains or losses on all FVTOCI liabilities are reclassified to profit or loss on disposal.

• Financial instruments that are held for the purpose of collecting contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest are classified as amortized cost and are initially recognized at their fair value and are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Transaction costs of financial instruments classified as amortized cost are capitalized and amortized in profit or loss on the same basis as the financial instrument.

Expected credit losses associated with debt instruments carried at amortized cost and FVTOCI are assessed on a forward-looking basis. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. Impairment charges are recognized in profit or loss based on the expected credit loss model.

1. Includes derivative instruments.

*Other Financial Assets*

Other financial assets are recognized on their trade date and initially recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in net income or other comprehensive income in accordance with their classification. Fair values of financial instruments are determined by reference to quoted bid or ask prices, as appropriate. Where bid and ask prices are unavailable, the closing price of the most recent transaction of that instrument is used.

Other financial assets also include loans and notes receivable which are recorded initially at fair value and, with the exception of loans and notes receivable designated as FVTPL, are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any applicable provision for impairment. A provision for impairment is established when there is objective evidence that the company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. Loans and receivables designated as FVTPL are recorded at fair value, with changes in fair value recorded in net income in the period in which they arise.

*Allowance for Credit Losses*

For financial assets classified as amortized cost or debt instruments as FVTOCI and undrawn loan commitments, at each reporting period, the company assesses if there has been a significant increase in credit risk since the asset was originated to determine if a 12-month expected credit loss or a life-time expected credit loss should be recorded regardless of whether there has been an actual loss event. The company uses probability-weighted loss scenarios which consider multiple loss scenarios based on reasonable and supportable forecasts in order to calculate the expected credit losses.

The company assesses the carrying value of FVTOCI and amortized cost securities for impairment when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired such as when an asset is in default. Impaired financial assets continue to record life-time expected credit losses; however interest revenue is calculated based on the net amortized carrying amount after deducting the loss allowance. When objective evidence of impairment exists, losses arising from impairment are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to net income.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;163

*Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedge Accounting* 

The company selectively utilizes derivative financial instruments primarily to manage financial risks, including interest rate, commodity and foreign exchange risks. Derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value within the company's consolidated financial statements. Hedge accounting is applied when the derivative is designated as a hedge of a specific exposure and there is assurance that it will continue to be effective as a hedge based on an expectation of offsetting cash flows or fair values. Hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively when the derivative no longer qualifies as a hedge or the hedging relationship is terminated. Once discontinued, the cumulative change in fair value of a derivative that was previously recorded in other comprehensive income by the application of hedge accounting is recognized in net income over the remaining term of the original hedging relationship. The assets or liabilities relating to unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses on derivative financial instruments are recorded in accounts receivable and other or accounts payable and other, respectively.

Items Classified as Hedges

Realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign exchange contracts designated as hedges of currency risks relating to a net investment in a subsidiary or an associate are included in equity. Gains or losses are reclassified into net income in the period in which the subsidiary or associate is disposed of or to the extent that the hedges are ineffective. Where a subsidiary is partially disposed, and control is retained, any associated gains or costs are reclassified within equity as ownership changes. Derivative financial instruments that are designated as hedges to offset corresponding changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities and cash flows are measured at their estimated fair value with changes in fair value recorded in net income or as a component of equity, as applicable. Unrealized gains and losses on interest rate contracts designated as hedges of future variable interest payments are included in equity as a cash flow hedge when the interest rate risk relates to an anticipated variable interest payment. The periodic exchanges of payments on interest rate swap contracts designated as hedges of debt are recorded on an accrual basis as an adjustment to interest expense. The periodic exchanges of payments on interest rate contracts designated as hedges of future interest payments are amortized into net income over the term of the corresponding interest payments. Unrealized gains and losses on electricity contracts designated as cash flow hedges of future power generation revenue are included in equity as a cash flow hedge. The periodic exchanges of payments on power generation commodity swap contracts designated as hedges are recorded on a settlement basis as an adjustment to power generation revenue.

Items Not Classified as Hedges

Derivative financial instruments that are not designated as hedges are carried at their estimated fair value, and gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are recognized in net income in the period in which the change occurs. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on equity derivatives used to offset changes in share prices in respect of vested deferred share units and restricted share units are recorded together with the corresponding compensation expense. Realized and unrealized gains on other derivatives not designated as hedges are recorded in revenues, direct costs or corporate costs, as applicable. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives which are considered economic hedges, and where hedge accounting is not able to be elected, are recorded in fair value changes in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

**p)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Income Taxes** 

Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be paid to tax authorities, net of recoveries, based on the tax rates and laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Current and deferred income tax relating to items recognized directly in equity are also recognized in equity. Deferred income tax liabilities are provided for using the liability method on temporary differences between the tax bases and carrying amounts of assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences and for the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that deductions, tax credits and tax losses can be utilized. The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent it is no longer probable that the income tax assets will be recovered. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realized or the liability settled, based on the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

164&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

*International Tax Reform - Pillar Two Rules (Amendments to IAS 12)*

The Corporation operates in countries, including Canada, which have enacted legislation to implement the global minimum top-up tax, effective from January 1, 2024. The Corporation has applied a temporary mandatory relief from recognizing and disclosing deferred taxes in connection with the global minimum top-up tax and will account for it as a current tax when it is incurred. There is no material current tax impact for the year ended December 31, 2025. The global minimum top-up tax is not anticipated to have a significant impact on the financial position of the Corporation.

**q)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Business Combinations** 

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of a business acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the fair values at the date of exchange of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued in exchange for control of the acquiree. The acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are recognized at their fair values at the acquisition date, except for non-current assets that are classified as held for sale which are recognized and measured at fair value less costs to sell. The interest of non-controlling shareholders in the acquiree is initially measured at the non-controlling shareholders' proportion of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognized.

To the extent the fair value of consideration paid exceeds the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets, the excess is recorded as goodwill. To the extent the fair value of consideration paid is less than the fair value of net identifiable tangible and intangible assets, the excess is recognized in net income.

When a business combination is achieved in stages, previously held interests in the acquired entity are re-measured to fair value at the acquisition date, which is the date control is obtained, and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is recognized in net income, other than amounts transferred directly to retained earnings. Amounts arising from interests in the acquiree prior to the acquisition date that have previously been recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to net income. Transaction costs are recorded as an expense within fair value changes in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

**r)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Leases**

The company accounts for leases under IFRS 16. Under IFRS 16, the company must assess whether a contract is, or contains, a lease at inception of the contract. A contract is, or contains, a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control exists if a customer can make the important decisions governing the use of an asset specified in a contract similar to decisions made over assets owned by the business. The company has elected to not allocate contract consideration between lease and non-lease components, but rather account for each lease and non-lease component as a single lease component. This election is made by asset class.

For lessors, a lease shall be classified as either a finance or operating lease on commencement of the lease contract. If the contract represents a finance lease in which the risk and rewards of ownership have transferred to the lessee, a lessor shall recognize a finance lease receivable at an amount equal to the net investment in the lease discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. Subsequently, finance income is recognized at a constant rate on the net investment of the finance lease. Lease payments received from operating leases are recognized into income on a straight-line or other systematic basis.

For lessees, the company recognizes a right-of-use asset and lease liability at the lease commencement date. The ROU asset is initially measured based on the calculated lease liability plus initial direct costs incurred by the lessee, estimates to dismantle and restore the underlying asset at the end of the lease term and lease payments made net of incentives received at or before the lease commencement date. It is classified as either investment in PP&E, or inventory depending on the nature of the asset and is subsequently accounted for consistently with owned assets within the respective asset classes with the exception of PP&E. Unlike most of the company's owned assets within PP&E, lease assets classified within PP&E are subsequently measured applying the cost method rather than the revaluation method. The ROU asset is depreciated applying a straight-line method or other systematic basis over the shorter of the useful life of the underlying asset or the term of the lease. Lease contracts often include an option to extend the term of the lease and such extensions are factored into the lease term if the company is reasonably certain to exercise that option. ROU assets are tested for impairment in accordance with IAS 36, *Impairment of Assets*. Refer to Note 2(g) for additional details of our accounting policies governing investment properties, PP&E and inventory.

Lease liabilities are classified within accounts payable and other and are recognized at the commencement of the lease, initially measured at the present value of future lease payments not paid as at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, or the lessee's incremental borrowing rate if the implicit rate cannot be readily determined. Lease liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost by applying the effective interest method. Lease liabilities are remeasured if there is

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;165

------

reassessment of the timing or amount of future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, revisions to estimates of the lease term or residual value guarantee, or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset. Such remeasurements of the lease liability are generally recognized as an adjustment to the ROU asset unless further reduction in the measurement of the lease liability would reduce a ROU asset below zero, in which case it is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Variable rents that do not depend on an index or rate are not included in the measurement of the lease liability and the ROU asset. The related payments are recognized as an expense in the period in which the event or condition that triggers those payments occurs and are classified within direct costs in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

We are applying certain practical expedients as permitted by the standard; specifically, we have elected to apply practical expedients associated with short-term and low-value leases that allow the company to record operating expenses on such leases on a straight-line basis without having to capitalize the lease arrangement.

We have also applied a number of critical judgments in applying this standard, including: i) identifying whether a contract (or part of a contract) includes a lease; ii) determining whether it is reasonably certain that lease extension or termination options will be exercised in determining the lease term; and iii) determining whether variable payments are in-substance fixed. Critical estimates used in the application of IFRS 16 include estimating the lease term and determining the appropriate rate at which to discount the lease payments.

**s) Other Items** 

***i.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Capitalized Costs***

Capitalized costs related to assets under development and redevelopment include all eligible expenditures incurred in connection with the acquisition, development and construction of the asset until it is available for its intended use. These expenditures consist of costs that are directly attributable to these assets.

Borrowing costs are capitalized when such costs are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset. A qualifying asset is an asset that takes a substantial period of time to prepare for its intended use.

***ii.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Share-based Payments***

The company issues share-based awards to certain employees and non-employee directors. The cost of equity-settled share-based transactions, comprised of share options, restricted shares and escrowed shares, is determined as the fair value of the award on the grant date using a fair value model. The cost of equity-settled share-based transactions is recognized as each tranche vests and is recorded in contributed surplus as a component of equity. The cost of cash-settled share-based transactions, comprised of Deferred Share Units ("DSUs"), is measured as the fair value at the grant date, and expensed on a proportionate basis consistent with the vesting features over the vesting period with the recognition of a corresponding liability. The liability is recorded as a provision within accounts payable and other on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and measured at each reporting date at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income.

The company's Restricted Share Unit ("RSU") program was terminated during the first quarter of 2024. Prior to termination, RSUs were measured as the fair value at the grant date, and expensed on a proportionate basis consistent with the vesting features over the vesting period. The liability was recorded as a provision within accounts payable and other on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and measured at each reporting date at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income.

***iii.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Provisions***

A provision is a liability of uncertain timing that is recognized when the company has a present obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The company's significant provisions consist of pensions and other long-term and post-employment benefits, warranties on some products or services, obligations to retire or decommission tangible long-lived assets and the cost of legal claims arising in the normal course of operations.

*a.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pensions and Other Post-Employment Benefits* 

The company offers pension and other post-employment benefit plans to employees of certain of its subsidiaries, with certain of these subsidiaries offering defined benefit plans. Defined benefit pension expenses, which include the current year's service cost, are included in direct costs. For each defined benefit plan, we recognize the present value of our defined benefit obligations less the fair

166&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

value of the plan assets as a defined benefit liability reported within accounts payable and other on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The company's obligations under its defined benefit pension plans are determined periodically through the preparation of actuarial valuations.

*b.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other Long-Term Incentive Plans* 

The company provides long-term incentive plans to certain employees whereby the company allocates a portion of the amounts realized through subsidiary profit-sharing agreements to its employees. The cost of these plans is recognized over the requisite service period, provided it is probable that the vesting conditions will be achieved, based on the underlying subsidiary profit sharing arrangement. The liability is recorded within accounts payable and other and measured at each reporting date with the corresponding expense recognized in direct costs in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

*c.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Warranties, Asset Retirement, Legal and Other* 

Certain consolidated entities offer warranties on the sale of products or services. A provision is recorded to provide for future warranty costs based on management's best estimate of probable warranty claims.

Certain consolidated entities have legal obligations to retire tangible long-lived assets. A provision is recorded at each reporting date to provide for the estimated fair value of the asset retirement obligation upon decommissioning of the asset period.

In the normal course of operations, the company may become involved in legal proceedings. Management analyzes information about these legal matters and provides provisions for probable contingent losses, including estimated legal expenses to resolve the matters. Internal and external legal counsel are used in order to estimate the probability of an unfavorable outcome and the amount of loss.

***iv.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Government Assistance***

Government grants and other government assistance received by consolidated subsidiaries are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the assistance will be received and the company will comply with all relevant conditions. The company recognizes government grants in the Consolidated Statements of Operations on a systematic basis over the periods in which the company recognizes expenses for which the grants were provided.

**t)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Critical Estimates and Judgments**

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the carried amounts of certain assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses recorded during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

In making estimates and judgments, management relies on external information and observable conditions, where possible, supplemented by internal analysis as required. These estimates and judgments have been applied in a manner consistent with prior periods and there are no known trends, commitments, events or uncertainties that the company believes will materially affect the methodology or assumptions utilized in making estimates and judgments in these consolidated financial statements.

***i.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Critical Estimates***

The significant estimates used in determining the recorded amount for assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements include the following:

*a.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Investment Properties* 

The critical assumptions and estimates used when determining the fair value of commercial properties are discount rates and terminal capitalization rates for properties valued using a discounted cash flow model and capitalization rates for properties valued using a direct capitalization approach. Management also uses assumptions and estimates in determining expected future cash flows in discounted cash flow models and stabilized net operating income used in values determined using the direct capitalization approach. Properties under development are recorded at fair value using a discounted cash flow model which includes estimates in respect of the timing and cost to complete the development.

Further information on investment property estimates on fair value is provided in Note 11.

2025 ANNUAL REPORT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;167

------

*b.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Revaluation Method for Property, Plant and Equipment* 

When determining the carrying value of PP&E using the revaluation method, the company uses the following critical assumptions and estimates: future sales prices and associated expenses; future sales volumes; future regulatory rates; maintenance and other capital expenditures; discount rates; terminal capitalization rates; terminal valuation dates; useful lives; and residual values. Determination of the fair value of PP&E under development includes estimates in respect of the timing and cost to complete the development.

Further information on estimates used in the revaluation method for PP&E is provided in Note 12.

*c.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Financial Instruments* 

Estimates and assumptions used in determining the fair value of financial instruments are: equity and commodity prices; future interest rates; the credit worthiness of the company relative to its counterparties; the credit risk of the company's counterparties; estimated future cash flows; the amount of the liability and equity components of compound financial instruments; discount rates and volatility utilized in option valuations.

Further information on estimates used in determining the carrying value of financial instruments is provided in Notes 6 and 25.

*d.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Inventory* 

The company estimates the net realizable value of its inventory using estimates and assumptions about future development costs, costs to hold and future selling costs.

*e.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other* 

Other estimates and assumptions utilized in the preparation of the company's consolidated financial statements are: the assessment or determination of net recoverable amount; oil and gas reserves; depreciation and amortization rates and useful lives; estimation of recoverable amounts of cash-generating units for impairment assessments of goodwill and intangible assets; ability to utilize tax losses and other tax measurements; fair value of assets held as collateral and the percentage of completion for construction contracts.

***ii.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Critical Judgments***

Management is required to make critical judgments when applying its accounting policies. The following judgments have the most significant effect on the consolidated financial statements:

*a.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Control or Level of Influence* 

When determining the appropriate basis of accounting for the company's investees, the company makes judgments about the degree of influence that it has the ability to exert directly or through an arrangement over the investees' relevant activities. This may include the ability to elect investee directors or appoint management. Control is obtained when the company has the power to direct the relevant investing, financing and operating decisions of an entity and does so in its capacity as principal of the operations, rather than as an agent for other investors. Operating as a principal includes having sufficient capital at risk in any investee and exposure to the variability of the returns generated as a result of the decisions of the company as principal. Judgment is used in determining the sufficiency of the capital at risk or variability of returns. In making these judgments, the company considers the ability of other investors to remove the company as a manager or general partner in a controlled partnership.

*b.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Investment Properties* 

When applying the company's accounting policy for investment properties, judgment is applied in determining whether certain costs are additions to the carrying amount of the property and, for properties under development, identifying the point at which practical completion of the property occurs and identifying the directly attributable borrowing costs to be included in the carrying value of the development property.

*c.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Property, Plant and Equipment* 

The company's accounting policy for its PP&E requires critical judgments over the assessment of carrying value, whether certain costs are additions to the carrying amount of the PP&E as opposed to repairs and maintenance, and for assets under development. the identification of when the asset is capable of being used as intended and identifying the directly attributable borrowing costs to be included in the asset's carrying value.

168&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

For assets that are measured using the revaluation method, judgment is required when estimating future prices, volumes, discount and capitalization rates. Judgment is applied when determining future electricity prices considering broker quotes for the years in which there is a liquid market available and, for the subsequent years, our best estimate of electricity prices from renewable sources that would allow new entrants into the market.

*d.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Identifying Performance Obligations for Revenue Recognition* 

Management is required to identify performance obligations relating to contracts with customers at the inception of each contract. IFRS 15 requires a contract's transaction price to be allocated to each distinct performance obligation and subsequently recognized into income when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Judgment is used when assessing the pattern of delivery of the product or service to determine if revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time. For certain service contracts recognized over time, judgment is required to determine if revenue from variable consideration such as incentives, claims and variations from contract modifications has met the required probability threshold to be recognized.

Management also uses judgment to determine whether contracts for the sale of products and services have distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately or as a single performance obligation. Goods and services are considered distinct if: (1) a customer can benefit from the good or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer; and (2) the entity's promise to transfer the good or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract.

Additional details about revenue recognition policies across our operating segments are included in Note 2(n) of the consolidated financial statements.

*e.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Indicators of Impairment* 

Judgment is applied when determining whether indicators of impairment exist when assessing the carrying values of the company's assets, including: the determination of the company's ability to hold financial assets; the estimation of a cash-generating unit's future revenues and direct costs; the determination of discount and capitalization rates; and when an asset's carrying value is above the value derived using publicly traded prices which are quoted in a liquid market.

*f.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Income Taxes* 

The company makes judgments when determining the future tax rates applicable to subsidiaries and identifying the temporary differences that relate to each subsidiary. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply during the period when the assets are realized or the liabilities settled, using the tax rates and laws enacted or substantively enacted at the consolidated balance sheet dates. The company measures deferred income taxes associated with its investment properties based on its specific intention with respect to each asset at the end of the reporting period. Where the company has a specific intention to sell a property in the foreseeable future, deferred taxes on the building portion of an investment property are measured based on the tax consequences that would follow the disposition of the property. Otherwise, deferred taxes are measured on the basis the carrying value of the investment property will be recovered substantially through use.

*g.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other* 

Other critical judgments include the determination of effectiveness of financial hedges for accounting purposes; the likelihood and timing of anticipated transactions for hedge accounting; and the determination of functional currency.

**3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;SEGMENTED INFORMATION**

**a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Operating Segments** 

Our operations are organized into six business groups in addition to our corporate activities, which collectively represent seven operating segments for internal and external reporting purposes. Our operating segments are as follows:

The Corporation:

i.*Corporate Activities* include the investment of cash and financial assets, as well as the management of our corporate leverage, including corporate borrowings and preferred equity, which fund a portion of the capital invested in our other operations. Certain corporate costs such as technology and operations are incurred on behalf of our operating segments and allocated to each operating segment based on an internal pricing framework.

Asset Management:

i.The *Asset Management* business includes managing long-term private funds, perpetual strategies and liquid strategies on behalf of our investors and ourselves. We generate contractual base management fees for these activities as well as incentive distributions and performance income, including performance fees, transaction fees and carried interest. We also include the discretionary capital that we invest directly into and alongside private funds managed by BAM and other investments within the results of our Asset Management business. These investments include flagship real estate private funds that are managed by BAM with long-term track records of earning strong returns, as well as capital invested in other real estate, private equity, opportunistic and other credit funds managed by BAM, and other investments.

Wealth Solutions:

i.The *Wealth Solutions* business includes our equity accounted interest in Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. ("BWS"), an investment-led insurance organization focused on securing the financial futures of individuals and institutions through a range of retirement services, wealth protection products and tailored capital solutions.

Operating Businesses:

i.The *Renewable Power and Transition* business includes the ownership, operation and development of hydroelectric, wind, utility-scale solar power generating assets, distributed energy and sustainable solutions.

ii.The *Infrastructure* business includes the ownership, operation and development of utilities, transport, midstream, and data assets.

iii.The *Private Equity* business includes a broad range of industries, and is mostly focused on ownership and operations in the business services and industrials sectors.

iv.The *Real Estate* business includes the ownership, operation and development of super core, core plus, value add, opportunistic, and North American Residential assets.

**b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Segment Financial Measures**

For our Asset Management and Wealth Solutions segments, we measure operating performance using distributable earnings ("DE"). Net operating income ("NOI") is the key performance metric for our Real Estate segment, and Funds from Operations ("FFO") is used for our other operating segments. We also provide the amount of capital invested by the Corporation in each segment using common equity.

These metrics are used by our Chief Operating Decision Maker in assessing operating results and the performance of our businesses on a segmented basis.

Our segment financial measures are defined as follows:

***i.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Distributable Earnings***

DE from our Asset Management segment is defined as the earnings received by the Corporation that are available for distribution to common shareholders or to be reinvested in the business. It is calculated as the sum of distributable earnings from our Asset Management business and realized carried interest, net of equity-based compensation costs. DE from our Asset Management segment includes fees, net of the associated costs, that we earn from managing capital in our perpetual affiliates, private funds and liquid strategies accounts. We are also eligible to earn incentive payments in the form of incentive distributions, performance fees or carried interest. Our Asset Management segment distributes substantially all of its distributable earnings as a dividend to its shareholders;

170&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROOKFIELD CORPORATION

------

therefore, DE represents our profitability from our Asset Management segment. We do not use DE as a measure of cash generated from our operations.

Distributable earnings from our Wealth Solutions business is calculated as our share of equity accounted net income from our Wealth Solutions business, excluding the impact of depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes, net income from our equity accounted investments, mark-to-market on investments and derivatives, breakage and transaction costs, and is inclusive of our proportionate share of DE from investments in associates.

***ii.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net Operating Income***

NOI from our Real Estate segment is defined as: i) property-specific revenues from our commercial properties operations less direct commercial property expenses before the impact of depreciation and amortization; and ii) revenues from our hospitality operations less direct hospitality expenses before the impact of depreciation and amortization. NOI represents an income-generating property's profitability before adding costs from financing or taxes, and is a strong indication of our Real Estate business' ability to impact the operating performance of its properties through proactive management and leasing. Depreciation and capital expenditures are excluded from NOI as we believe that the value of most of our properties typically increases over time, provided we make the necessary maintenance expenditures, the timing and magnitude of which may differ from the amount of depreciation recorded in any given period. We do not use NOI as a measure of cash generated from our operations.

***iii.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Funds from Operations***

We define FFO from our Corporate Activities segment and our Operating Businesses, excluding the Real Estate business, as net income excluding fair value changes, depreciation and amortization and deferred income taxes, net of non-controlling interests. When determining FFO, we include our proportionate share of the FFO from equity accounted investments on a fully diluted basis. FFO also includes realized disposition gains and losses, which are gains or losses arising from transactions during the reporting period, adjusted to include associated fair value changes and revaluation surplus recorded in prior periods, taxes payable or receivable in connection with those transactions and amounts that are recorded directly in equity, such as ownership changes.

FFO represents the company's share of revenues less costs incurred within our operations, which include interest expenses and other costs. Specifically, it includes the impact of contracts that we enter into to generate revenues, including power sales agreements, contracts that our operating businesses enter into such as leases and take or pay contracts and sales of inventory. FFO includes the impact of changes in leverage or the cost of that financial leverage and other costs incurred to operate our business.

We use realized disposition gains and losses within FFO in order to provide additional insight regarding the performance of investments on a cumulative realized basis, including any unrealized fair value adjustments that were recorded in equity and not otherwise reflected in current period FFO, and believe it is useful to investors to better understand variances between reporting periods. We exclude depreciation and amortization from FFO as we believe that the value of most of our assets typically increases over time, provided we make the necessary maintenance expenditures, the timing and magnitude of which may differ from the amount of depreciation recorded in any given period. In addition, the depreciated cost base of our assets is reflected in the ultimate realized disposition gain or loss on disposal. As noted above, unrealized fair value changes are excluded from FFO until the period in which the asset is sold. We also exclude deferred income taxes from FFO because the vast majority of the company's deferred income tax assets and liabilities are a result of the revaluation of our assets under IFRS Accounting Standards.

Our definition of FFO differs from the definition used by other organizations, as well as the definition of FFO used by the Real Property Association of Canada ("REALPAC") and the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. ("NAREIT"), in part because the NAREIT definition is based on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP"), as opposed to IFRS Accounting Standards. The key differences between our definition of FFO and the determination of FFO by REALPAC and/or NAREIT are that we include the following: realized disposition gains or losses and cash taxes payable or receivable on those gains or losses, if any; foreign exchange gains or losses on monetary items not forming part of our net investment in foreign operations; and foreign exchange gains or losses on the sale of an investment in a foreign operation. We do not use FFO as a measure of cash generated from our operations.

We illustrate how we reconcile the financial measure for each operating segment to net income in Note 3(c)(ii) and (iii) of the consolidated financial statements.

***Segment Balance Sheet Information***

We use common equity by segment as our measure of segment assets because it is utilized by our Chief Operating Decision Maker for capital allocation decisions.

***Segment Allocation and Measurement***

Segment measures include amounts earned from consolidated entities that are eliminated on consolidation. The principal adjustment is to include asset management revenues earned from consolidated entities as revenues within the company's Asset Management segment with the corresponding expenses within the relevant segment. These amounts are based on the in-place terms of the asset management contracts between the consolidated entities. Revenues paid for management of affiliated assets are based on market terms.

The company allocates the costs of shared functions that would otherwise be included within its Corporate Activities segment, such as information technology and internal audit, pursuant to formal policies.

1. Financial assets include $8.5 billion of assets pledged as collateral.

2. Includes derivative instruments which are designated for hedge accounting, totaling $3.2 billion included in accounts receivable and other and $2.4 billion included in accounts payable and other, for which changes in fair value are recorded in other comprehensive income.

Gains or losses arising from changes in fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL") financial assets are presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in the period in which they arise. Dividends from FVTPL and fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI") financial assets are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations when the company's right to receive payment is established. Interest on FVTOCI financial assets is calculated using the effective interest method and reported in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

FVTOCI debt and equity securities are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value with changes in FVTOCI. As at December 31, 2025, the unrealized gains and losses relating to the fair value of FVTOCI securities amounted to $253 million (2024 – $418 million) and $271 million (2024 – $66 million), respectively.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, net deferred income of $29 million (2024 – $20 million) previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income was reclassified to net income as a result of the disposition or impairment of certain of our FVTOCI financial assets that are not equity instruments.

1. Financial assets and liabilities categorized in level 3 primarily relate to derivative assets and liabilities.

Fair values of financial instruments are determined by reference to quoted bid or ask prices, as appropriate. If bid and ask prices are unavailable, the closing price of the most recent transaction of that instrument is used. In the absence of an active market, fair values are determined based on prevailing market rates for instruments with similar characteristics and risk profiles or internal or external valuation models, such as option pricing models and discounted cash flow analysis, using observable market inputs.

The following table summarizes the valuation techniques and key inputs used in the fair value measurement of Level 2 financial instruments:

Fair values determined using valuation models requiring the use of unobservable inputs (Level 3 financial assets and liabilities) include assumptions concerning the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and discount rates. In determining those unobservable inputs, the company uses observable external market inputs such as interest rate yield curves, currency rates and price and rate volatilities, as applicable, to develop assumptions regarding those unobservable inputs.

Fair values of Level 2 and Level 3 liabilities measured at amortized cost but for which fair values are disclosed are determined using valuation techniques such as adjusted public pricing and discounted cash flows.

**d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Hedging Activities**

The company uses derivatives and non-derivative financial instruments to manage or maintain exposures to interest, currency, credit and other market risks. Derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value. For certain derivatives, the company determines whether hedge accounting can be applied. Hedge accounting can be applied when the derivative is designated as a hedge of a specific exposure and there is assurance that it will continue to be highly effective as a hedge based on an expectation of offsetting cash flows or fair value. Hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively when the derivative no longer qualifies under this criteria. Once discontinued, the cumulative change in fair value of a derivative that was previously recorded in other comprehensive income by the application of hedge accounting is recognized in profit or loss over the remaining term of the original hedging relationship as amounts related to the hedged item are recognized in profit or loss. The assets or liabilities relating to unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses on derivative financial instruments are recorded in financial assets and liabilities, respectively.

***i.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cash Flow Hedges***

The company uses the following cash flow hedges: foreign exchange contracts to hedge currency volatility, energy derivative contracts to hedge the sale of power; interest rate swaps to hedge the variability in future cash flows related to a variable rate asset or liability; and equity derivatives to hedge long-term compensation arrangements. For the year ended December 31, 2025, pre-tax net unrealized losses of $1.1 billion (2024 – $17 million of losses) were recorded in other comprehensive income for the effective portion of the cash flow hedges. As at December 31, 2025, there was an unrealized derivative liability balance of $433 million (2024 – $78 million asset) relating to derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges.

***ii.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net Investment Hedges***

The company uses foreign exchange contracts and foreign currency denominated debt instruments to manage its foreign currency exposures arising from net investments in foreign operations. For the year ended December 31, 2025, unrealized pre-tax net loss of $2.9 billion (2024 – $2.8 billion of gain) were recorded in other comprehensive income for the effective portion of hedges of net investments in foreign operations. As at December 31, 2025, there was an unrealized derivative liability balance of $1.2 billion (2024 – $758 million asset) relating to derivative contracts designated as net investment hedges.

**e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Netting of Financial Instruments**

Financial assets and liabilities are offset with the net amount reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, where the company currently has a legally enforceable right to offset and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

The company enters into derivative transactions under International Swaps and Derivatives Association ("ISDA") master netting agreements. In general, under such agreements the amounts owed by each counterparty on a single day are aggregated into a single net amount that is payable by one party to the other. The agreements provide the company with the legal and enforceable right to offset these amounts and accordingly the following balances are presented net in the consolidated financial statements:

1. Following the completion of the partial sale of BSREP IV to BWS in 2024, our investment in BSREP IV was deconsolidated and recognized within equity accounted investments. BN was issued additional Class C shares in BWS as consideration for the acquisition by BWS.

2. As at December 31, 2025, $78.6 billion (December 31, 2024 – $96.5 billion) of investment properties were leased to third parties and $4.4 billion were considered ROU investment properties (December 31, 2024 – $4.2 billion).

Investment properties include the company's office, retail, multifamily and other properties. Additions and acquisitions of $7.1 billion (2024 – $13.2 billion) primarily relate to acquisitions of a portfolio of single-family rental homes in the U.S., a life sciences portfolio in Singapore, a portfolio of storage assets in Canada, two logistics portfolios in the U.S., and a logistics portfolio in Sweden., all within our LP investments included in our Asset Management segment, and enhancement of existing assets during the period.

Dispositions and assets reclassified as held for sale of $23.2 billion (2024 – $6.5 billion) included the sale of U.S. office and retail assets within our Real Estate segment, and certain senior living, student housing, triple net lease, manufactured housing, logistics, and office assets within our LP Investments included in our Asset Management segment, as well as the reclassification to held for sale of a manufactured housing portfolio also within our LP investments included in our Asset Management segment.

Investment properties generated $5.8 billion (2024 – $6.9 billion) in rental income and incurred $4.1 billion (2024 – $4.8 billion) in direct operating expenses. Most of our investment properties are pledged as collateral against the non-recourse borrowings at their respective properties.

The following table presents our investment properties measured at fair value:

Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) are utilized when determining the fair value of investment properties. The significant Level 3 inputs include:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Valuation Technique** | **Significant Unobservable Inputs** | **Relationship of Unobservable Inputs to Fair Value** | **Mitigating Factors** |
| Discounted cash flow analysis<sup>1</sup> | • Future cash flows on lease renewals – primarily driven by net operating income | • Increases (decreases) in future cash flows increase (decrease) fair value | • Increases (decreases) in cash flows tend to be accompanied by increases (decreases) in discount rates that may offset changes in fair value from cash flows |
|  | • Discount rate | • Increases (decreases) in discount rate decrease (increase) fair value | • Increases (decreases) in discount rates tend to be accompanied by increases (decreases) in cash flows that may offset changes in fair value from discount rates |
|  | • Terminal capitalization rate | • Increases (decreases) in terminal capitalization rate decrease (increase) fair value | • Increases (decreases) in terminal capitalization rates tend to be accompanied by increases (decreases) in cash flows that may offset changes in fair value from terminal capitalization rates |
|  | • Investment horizon | • Increases (decreases) in the investment horizon decrease (increase) fair value | • Increases (decreases) in the investment horizon tend to be the result of changing cash flow profiles that may result in higher (lower) growth in cash flows prior to stabilizing in the terminal year |

1. Certain investment properties with stabilized net operating income are valued using the direct capitalization method instead of a discounted cash flow model. Under the direct capitalization method, a capitalization rate is applied to estimated current year cash flows.

The company's investment properties are diversified by asset type, asset class, geography and market. Therefore, there may be mitigating factors in addition to those noted above, such as changes to assumptions that vary in direction and magnitude across different geographies and markets.

The following table summarizes the key valuation metrics of the company's investment properties:

1. The rates presented are for investment properties valued using the discounted cash flow method. These rates exclude multifamily, manufactured housing and other investment properties that generally have a stabilized net operating income profile and are more appropriately valued using a direct capitalization approach.

2. The change in rates and investment horizon compared to the prior year reflect the impact of the disposition of our Australian senior living portfolio.

3. Other investment properties include data centers held in our Infrastructure segment and other direct investments within our Asset Management segment.

1. Terminal capitalization rate applies only to hydroelectric assets in North America and Colombia.

2. The change in uncontracted rates compared to the prior year reflect change in asset mix to include certain development and merchant assets in Europe.

Terminal values are included in the valuation of hydroelectric assets in the U.S., Canada, and Colombia. For the hydroelectric assets in Brazil, cash flows have been included based on the duration of the authorization or useful life of a concession asset plus a one-time 30-year renewal term for the majority of the hydroelectric assets. The weighted-average remaining duration or useful life of a concession asset as at December 31, 2025, including a one-time 30-year renewal for applicable hydroelectric assets, is 30 years (2024 – 30 years). Consequently, there is no terminal value attributed to the hydroelectric assets in Brazil at the end of the authorization term.

Infrastructure's PP&E assets are accounted for under the revaluation model, and the most recent date of revaluation was December 31, 2025. The utilities assets consist of regulated transmission and regulated distribution networks, which are operated primarily under regulated rate base arrangements. In the transport operations, the PP&E assets consist of railroads, toll roads and ports. PP&E assets in the midstream operations are comprised of energy transmission, distribution and storage. Data PP&E include mainly telecommunications towers, fiber optic networks and data storage assets.

Valuations utilize significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) when determining the fair value of infrastructure's utilities, transport, midstream and data assets. The significant Level 3 inputs include:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Valuation Technique** | **Significant Unobservable Inputs** | **Relationship of Unobservable Inputs to Fair Value** | **Mitigating Factors** |

***Inputs Used to Determine Recoverable Amounts of Intangible Assets***

We test finite life intangible assets for impairment when an impairment indicator is identified. Indefinite life intangible assets are tested for impairment annually. We use a discounted cash flow valuation to determine the recoverable amount and consider the following significant unobservable inputs as part of our valuation:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Valuation Technique** | **Significant Unobservable Input(s)** | **Relationship of Unobservable Input(s) to Fair Value** | **Mitigating Factor(s)** |

1. Real estate Super Core, Core Plus, Value Add and Opportunistic investments are included in our Real Estate segment. Real estate LP investments are included within our Asset Management segment as we include the discretionary capital that we invest directly into and alongside private funds managed by BAM and other investments within this segment.

**a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Infrastructure**

Goodwill in our Infrastructure segment increased from the prior year primarily due to the acquisition of a U.S. pipeline system and a U.S. fiber network.

A discounted cash flow model was used to determine the recoverable amount of goodwill. The key inputs are discount rates ranging from 9% to 20% and terminal value multiples of 7x to 20x. The recoverable amounts for the years ended 2025 and 2024 were determined to be in excess of their carrying values.

**b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Private Equity**

Goodwill in our Private Equity segment increased from the prior year primarily due to the acquisition of an electric heat tracing systems manufacturer and a specialty consumables and equipment manufacturer, partially offset by goodwill impairment within our solar power solutions. For the remaining goodwill balance, the recoverable amounts for the years ended 2025 and 2024 were determined to be in excess of their carrying values.

The key inputs are revenue growth rates ranging from 3.8% to 16.2%, discount rates of 8.7% to 12.0%, perpetuity growth rates of 1.0% to 3.0% and terminal value multiples of 8.0x to 12.0x. Assumptions and inputs are typically forecasted over a period of 5 years except for specific cases.

**c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Renewable Power and Transition**

Goodwill in our Renewable Power and Transition segment includes a hydroelectric portfolio, a wind portfolio and distributed generation and utility-scale solar portfolios. The increase in goodwill was primarily due to the impact of foreign exchange.

The goodwill on the hydroelectric portfolio arose from the inclusion of a deferred tax liability as the tax bases of the net assets acquired were lower than their fair values. The recoverable amounts for the years ended 2025 and 2024 were determined to be in excess of their carrying values. The key inputs are discount rates ranging from 8% to 17%, terminal capitalization multiples of 3x to 9x, cash flow periods of 5 years, forecasted development MWs per annum and future leverage assumptions of the operating segment.

**(d) Real Estate LP Investments and Other**

Goodwill in real estate LP investments and other is primarily comprised of our real estate LP investments, including U.K. and Ireland Short Stay, a mixed-use asset in South Korea, European hostels. The increase in goodwill was primarily due to the acquisition of a portfolio of hostels across Europe.

The valuation assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount for U.K. and Ireland Short Stay were a discount rate of 11.2% based on a weighted-average cost of capital, terminal capitalization rate of 6% and a long-term growth rate of 3.5%. The recoverable amounts for the years ended 2025 and 2024 were determined to be in excess of their carrying values.

***Inputs used to Determine Recoverable Amounts of Goodwill***

The recoverable amounts used in goodwill impairment testing are calculated using discounted cash flow models based on the following significant unobservable inputs:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Valuation Technique** | **Significant Unobservable Input(s)** | **Relationship of Unobservable Input(s) to Fair Value** | **Mitigating Factor(s)** |

***Escrowed Stock Plan***

The Escrowed Stock Plan (the "ES Plan") provides executives with indirect ownership of Class A shares. Under the ES Plan, executives are granted common shares (the "ES Shares") in one or more private companies that own Class A shares. The Class A shares are purchased on the open market with the purchase cost funded by the company. The ES Shares generally vest over five years and must be held to the fifth anniversary of the grant date. At a date no more than ten years from the grant date, all outstanding ES Shares will be exchanged for Class A shares issued by the company based on the market value of Class A shares at the time of the exchange.

During 2025, 2.3 million Class A shares were purchased in respect of ES shares granted to executives under the ES Plan (2024 – 24.6 million Class A shares) during the year. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the total expense incurred with respect to the ES Plan totaled $51 million (2024 – $36 million).

The weighted-average fair value of escrowed shares granted for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $11.89 (2024 – $8.34), and was determined using the Black-Scholes model of valuation with inputs to the model as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| FOR THE YEARS ENDED DEC. 31 | Unit | **2025** | 2024 |

| Weighted-average annual dividend yield | % | **0.80** | 1.0 |
| Risk-free rate | % | **4.4** | 4.2 |

1. Share price volatility was determined based on historical share prices over a similar period to the average term to exercise.

***Restricted Stock Plan***

The Restricted Stock Plan awards executives and employees with Class A shares purchased on the open market ("Restricted Shares"). Under the Restricted Stock Plan, Restricted Shares awarded vest over a period of up to five years, except for Restricted Shares awarded in lieu of a cash bonus, which may vest immediately. Vested and unvested Restricted Shares are subject to a hold period of up to five years. Holders of Restricted Shares are entitled to vote Restricted Shares and to receive associated dividends. Employee compensation expense for the Restricted Stock Plan is charged against income over the vesting period.

During 2025, Brookfield granted 1.8 million Class A shares (2024 – 2.6 million) pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Restricted Stock Plan, resulting in the recognition of $54 million (2024 – $52 million) of compensation expense.

**Cash-settled Share-based Awards**

***Deferred Share Unit Plan and Restricted Share Unit Plan***

The Deferred Share Unit Plan and Restricted Share Unit Plan provide for the issuance of DSUs and RSUs, respectively. Under these plans, qualifying employees and directors receive varying percentages of their annual incentive bonus or directors' fees in the form of DSUs and RSUs. The DSUs and RSUs vest over periods of up to five years, and DSUs accumulate additional DSUs at the same rate as dividends on common shares based on the market value of the common shares at the time of the dividend. Participants are not allowed to convert DSUs and RSUs into cash until retirement or cessation of employment.

The value of the DSUs, when converted to cash, will be equivalent to the market value of the common shares at the time the conversion takes place. The value of the RSUs, when converted into cash, will be equivalent to the difference between the market price of equivalent number of common shares at the time the conversion takes place and the market price on the date the RSUs are granted. The company uses equity derivative contracts to offset its exposure to the change in share prices in respect of vested and unvested DSUs and RSUs. The fair value of the vested DSUs and RSUs as at December 31, 2025 was $1.2 billion (2024 – $1.1 billion).

Employee compensation expense for these plans is charged against income over the vesting period of the DSUs and RSUs. The amount payable by the company in respect of vested DSUs and RSUs changes as a result of dividends and share price movements. All of the amounts attributable to changes in the amounts payable by the company are recorded as employee compensation expense in the period of the change. For the year ended December 31, 2025, employee compensation expense totaled $3 million (2024 – $3 million), net of the impact of hedging arrangements.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the RSU plan was terminated and all participants received cash or other financial instruments equivalent to the fair value at the date of settlement. As the RSUs have been settled, the fair value is $nil as at December 31, 2025 (2024 – $nil).

**26.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;MANAGEMENT OF RISKS ARISING FROM HOLDING FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS**

The company is exposed to the following risks as a result of holding financial instruments: market risk (i.e., interest rate risk, currency exchange risk and other price risk that impact the fair value of financial instruments), credit risk and liquidity risk. The following is a description of these risks and how they are managed:

**a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Market Risk** 

Market risk is defined for these purposes as the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument held by the company will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk includes the risk of changes in interest rates, currency exchange rates and changes in market prices due to factors other than interest rates or currency exchange rates, such as changes in equity prices, commodity prices or credit spreads.

The company manages market risk from foreign currency assets and liabilities and the impact of changes in currency exchange rates and interest rates by funding assets with financial liabilities in the same currency and with similar interest rate characteristics, and by holding financial contracts such as interest rate and foreign exchange derivatives to minimize residual exposures.

Financial instruments held by the company that are subject to market risk include other financial assets, borrowings and derivative instruments such as interest rate, currency, equity and commodity contracts.

***i.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Interest Rate Risk***

The observable impacts on the fair values and future cash flows of financial instruments that can be directly attributable to interest rate risk include changes in the net income from financial instruments whose cash flows are determined with reference to floating interest rates and changes in the value of financial instruments whose cash flows are fixed in nature.

The company's assets largely consist of long-duration interest-sensitive physical assets. Accordingly, the company's financial liabilities consist primarily of long-term fixed-rate debt or floating-rate debt that has been swapped with interest rate derivatives. These financial liabilities are, with few exceptions, recorded at their amortized cost. The company also holds interest rate caps to limit its exposure to increases in interest rates on floating rate debt that has not been swapped, and holds interest rate contracts to lock in fixed rates on anticipated future debt issuances and as an economic hedge against the changes in value of long duration interest sensitive physical assets that have not been otherwise matched with fixed rate debt.

The result of a 50 basis-point change in interest rates on the company's net floating rate financial assets and liabilities would have resulted in a corresponding change in net income before tax of $313 million (2024 – $257 million) on a current basis, assuming all other variables were held constant.

Changes in the value of fair value through profit or loss interest rate contracts are recorded in net income and changes in the value of contracts that are elected for hedge accounting are recorded in other comprehensive income. The impact of a 50 basis-point parallel change in the yield curve on the aforementioned financial instruments is estimated to result in a corresponding change in net income before tax of $248 million (2024 – $199 million) and a corresponding change in other comprehensive income of $716 million (2024 – $836 million) for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

***ii.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Currency Exchange Rate Risk***

Changes in currency rates will impact the carrying value of financial instruments denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.

The company holds financial instruments with net unmatched exposures in several currencies, changes in the translated value of which are recorded in net income. The impact of a 1% increase in the U.S. dollar against these currencies would have resulted in a $97 million (2024 – $94 million) increase in the value of these positions on a combined basis. The impact on cash flows from financial instruments would be insignificant. The company holds financial instruments to limit its exposure to the impact of foreign currencies on its net investments in foreign operations whose functional and reporting currencies are other than the U.S. dollar. A 1% increase in the U.S. dollar would increase the value of these hedging instruments by $509 million (2024 – $503 million) as at December 31, 2025, which would be recorded in other comprehensive income and offset by changes in the U.S. dollar carrying value of the net investment being hedged.

------

***iii.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other Price Risk***

Other price risk is the risk of variability in fair value due to movements in equity prices or other market prices such as commodity prices and credit spreads.

Financial instruments held by the company that are exposed to equity price risk include equity securities and equity derivatives. A 5% decrease in the market price of equity securities and equity derivatives held by the company, excluding equity derivatives that hedge compensation arrangements, would have decreased net income by $180 million (2024 – $196 million) and decreased other comprehensive income by $149 million (2024 – $92 million), prior to taxes. The company's liability in respect of equity compensation arrangements is subject to variability based on changes in the company's underlying common share price. The company holds equity derivatives to hedge almost all of the variability. A 5% increase in the common equity price of the company in respect of compensation agreements would increase the compensation liability and compensation expense by $72 million (2024 – $68 million). This increase would be offset by a $101 million (2024 – $124 million) change in value of the associated equity derivatives of which $72 million (2024 – $68 million) would offset the above-mentioned increase in compensation expense and the remaining $29 million (2024 – $56 million) would be recorded in net income.

The company sells power and generation capacity under long-term agreements and financial contracts to stabilize future revenues. Certain of the contracts are considered financial instruments and are recorded at fair value in the consolidated financial statements, with changes in value being recorded in either net income or other comprehensive income as applicable. A 5% increase in energy prices would have decreased net income for the year ended December 31, 2025 by approximately $73 million (2024 – $60 million) and decreased other comprehensive income by $176 million (2024 – $183 million), prior to taxes. The corresponding increase in the value of the revenue or capacity being contracted, however, is not recorded in net income until subsequent periods.

**b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Credit Risk**

Credit risk is the risk of loss due to the failure of a borrower or counterparty to fulfill its contractual obligations. The company's exposure to credit risk in respect of financial instruments relates primarily to counterparty obligations regarding derivative contracts, loans receivable and credit investments such as bonds and preferred shares.

The company assesses the creditworthiness of each counterparty before entering into contracts with a view to ensuring that counterparties meet minimum credit quality requirements. Management evaluates and monitors counterparty credit risk for derivative financial instruments and endeavors to minimize counterparty credit risk through diversification, collateral arrangements, and other credit risk mitigation techniques. The credit risk of derivative financial instruments is generally limited to the positive fair value of the instruments, which, in general, tends to be a relatively small proportion of the notional value. Substantially all of the company's derivative financial instruments involve either counterparties that are banks or other financial institutions in North America, the U.K. and Australia, or arrangements that have embedded credit risk mitigation features. The company does not expect to incur credit losses in respect of any of these counterparties. The maximum exposure in respect of loans receivable and credit investments is equal to the carrying value.

**c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Liquidity Risk**

Liquidity risk is the risk that the company cannot meet a demand for cash or fund an obligation as it comes due. Liquidity risk also includes the risk of not being able to liquidate assets in a timely manner at a reasonable price.

To help ensure the company is able to react to contingencies and investment opportunities quickly, the company maintains sources of liquidity at the corporate and subsidiary levels. The primary source of liquidity consists of cash and other financial assets, net of deposits and other associated liabilities, and undrawn committed credit facilities.

The company is subject to the risks associated with debt financing, including the ability to refinance indebtedness at maturity. The company believes these risks are mitigated through the use of long-term debt secured by high quality assets, maintaining debt levels that are in management's opinion relatively conservative, and by diversifying maturities over an extended period of time. The company also seeks to include in its agreements terms that protect the company from liquidity issues of counterparties that might otherwise impact the company's liquidity.

The company provided BWS with an equity commitment in the amount of $2.0 billion to fund future growth, which BWS may draw on from time to time. As of December 31, 2025, there was no amount drawn under this equity commitment (2024 – $nil).

BWS may seek to add duration and diversification to its investment portfolio by acquiring public and private assets across many asset classes, including, but not limited to, real estate, royalties, public securities, and private credit. These investments could be made in the open market or from the Corporation and its related party affiliate entities.

During the year, the Corporation invested incremental capital in BWS to support the business as it continues to scale. Specifically, in the second quarter of 2025, the Corporation contributed approximately $3.5 billion of BAM shares in exchange for BWS Class C shares and a promissory note, which was later redeemed with additional BWS Class C shares.

In addition, BWS acquired $1.6 billion of real assets from the Corporation and approximately $3.0 billion of other assets and non-recourse debt issued by the Corporation and its subsidiaries for cash consideration. These transactions were at arm's length on market terms and are expected to support the continued repositioning of BWS's investment portfolio.

As at December 31, 2025, BWS, Partners Value Investments Inc., and Oaktree had cash on deposit with wholly-owned subsidiaries of the company of $318 million, $316 million, and $486 million, respectively (2024 – $493 million, $107 million, and $nil, respectively).

**28.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;OTHER INFORMATION**

**a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Guarantees and Contingencies**

In the normal course of business, the company enters into contractual obligations which include commitments to provide bridge financing and letters of credit and guarantees provided in respect of power sales contracts as well as capital expenditure commitments related to contracted project costs assumed as part of recent acquisitions. As at December 31, 2025, the company had $9.5 billion (2024 – $6.3 billion) of such commitments outstanding.

In addition, the company executes agreements that provide for indemnifications and guarantees to third parties in transactions or dealings such as business dispositions, business acquisitions, sales of assets, provision of services, securitization agreements and underwriting and agency agreements. The nature of substantially all of the indemnification undertakings prevents the company from making a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential amount the company could be required to pay third parties, as in most cases the agreements do not specify a maximum amount, and the amounts are dependent upon the outcome of future contingent events, the nature and likelihood of which cannot be determined at this time. Neither the company nor its consolidated subsidiaries have made significant payments in the past, nor do they expect at this time to make any significant payments under such indemnification agreements in the future.

The company periodically enters into joint venture, consortium or other arrangements that have contingent liquidity rights in favor of the company or its counterparties. These include buy sell arrangements, registration rights and other customary arrangements. These agreements generally have embedded protective terms that mitigate the risk to us. The amount, timing and likelihood of any payments by the company under these arrangements is, in most cases, dependent on either future contingent events or circumstances applicable to the counterparty and therefore cannot be determined at this time.

The company is contingently liable with respect to litigation and claims that arise in the normal course of business. It is not reasonably possible that any of the ongoing litigation as at December 31, 2025 could result in a material settlement liability.

The company has insurance for damage and business interruption costs sustained as a result of an act of terrorism. The amount of coverage is reviewed on an individual basis and can range up to $5 billion. However, a terrorist act could have a material effect on the company's assets to the extent damages exceed coverage.

The company, through its subsidiaries within the residential properties operations, is contingently liable for obligations of its associates in its land development joint ventures. In each case, all of the assets of the joint venture are available first for the purpose of satisfying these obligations, with the balance shared among the participants in accordance with predetermined joint venture arrangements.

**b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Supplemental Cash Flow Information**

During the year, the company capitalized $650 million (2024 – $477 million) of interest primarily to investment properties and residential inventory under development.
