## Exhibit 99.1

**EXHIBIT 99.1**

**Brookfield Wealth Solutions Announces First Quarter Results and Corporate Simplification**

BROOKFIELD, NEWS, May 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brookfield Wealth Solutions (NYSE, TSX: BNT) today announced financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Sachin Shah, CEO of Brookfield Wealth Solutions, stated, "We have built a scaled and well capitalized insurance platform with a resilient portfolio of $180 billion insurance assets today. Our established U.S. platform continues to expand its product and distribution capabilities, and we are now a leader in the U.K. pension market. We look forward to further growing our international operations over time, with a focus on generating high-quality earnings and durable risk-adjusted returns for our business."

| *Unaudited*<br>*As of and for the periods ended March 31*<br>*(US$ millions, except per share amounts)* | ***2026*** | *2025* |
| Total assets | $**156059** | $141612 |
| Distributable operating earnings<sup>1</sup> | **438** | 437 |
| Net loss | **(602)** | (282) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Net income per each class A share<sup>2</sup> | $**0.07** | $0.06 |

---

<sup>1. See Non-GAAP and Performance Measures on page 7 and a reconciliation from net income (loss) on page 6.</sup>

<sup>2. Per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the three-for-two stock split completed on October 9, 2025.</sup>

**First Quarter Highlights**

* **Significantly expanded our international operations, completing the acquisition of Just Group plc ("Just"), a leading provider of retirement services in the U.K. pension risk transfer and individual annuity markets.** 

* **Originated $5 billion of sales across our retail annuity, pension and funding agreement channels, inclusive of Just.** 

* **Deployed $4 billion into Brookfield originated strategies across our investment portfolio at an average target yield of 10%.**

* **Continued to optimize the synergies within our recently combined Property & Casualty ("P&C") businesses, including rebranding the holding company for our P&C operating companies as Clearbrook Group Holdings Inc.**

**Operating Update**

We recognized $438 million of distributable operating earnings ("DOE") for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $437 million in the prior year period. The current period DOE reflects higher net investment income within our Annuities segment from a larger asset base and asset repositioning, as well as continued improving underwriting results within our P&C segment. The growth in DOE across our Annuity and P&C businesses was partially offset by the absence of a one-time realized investment gain recognized in the prior year period within our Corporate & Other segment.

We recorded a net loss of $602 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to a net loss of $282 million in the prior year period. The net loss was driven by unfavorable mark-to-market movements on public equity investment positions which have recovered since March 31, 2026.

Today, we are in a strong liquidity position, with approximately $36 billion of cash and short-term liquid investments across our investment portfolios, and another approximately $43 billion of long-term liquid investments. These liquid assets position us well to meet policyholder obligations and support the ongoing rotation of our portfolio into higher yielding investment strategies.

**Regular Distribution Declaration**

The Board declared a quarterly return of capital to $0.07 per class A share and class B share (representing $0.28 per annum), payable on June 30, 2026 to shareholders of record as at the close of business on June 15, 2026. This distribution is identical in amount per share and has the same payment date as the quarterly distribution announced today by Brookfield Corporation on the Brookfield class A shares.

**Combination of BN and BNT**

Over the last 18 months, Brookfield Corporation (NYSE, TSX: BN) has streamlined its corporate structure. Today, Brookfield Corporation announced the next step is the combination of BN and BNT.

When Brookfield Wealth Solutions was established in 2021 it was structured in a manner that enabled it to benefit from Brookfield Corporation's capital base and investing capabilities. Over the past five years, the asset base has grown to close to $200 billion, inclusive of the recent Just acquisition. The proposed combination will provide our insurance operations with further direct access to Brookfield Corporation's balance sheet and enhance capital efficiency and flexibility in optimizing our expansion over the long term.

The transaction is expected to be completed on a tax-efficient basis for most shareholders of both BN and BNT, and the combined business is expected to be listed on the TSX and NYSE and trade under the symbol "BN".

We continue to refine the various details to implement the transaction and expect final review of the transaction by the Boards of Directors of BN and BNT to occur in the coming weeks. Subject to the approval of each Board, we intend to seek BN and BNT shareholder approvals on the transaction, as a special matter, at their respective 2026 annual general meetings, both scheduled for July 16, 2026.

**Brookfield Corporation Operating Results**

An investment in class A shares of our company is intended to be, as nearly as practicable, functionally and economically, equivalent to an investment in the Brookfield class A shares. A summary of Brookfield Corporation's first quarter operating results is provided below:

<sup>1. Consolidated basis – includes amounts attributable to non-controlling interests.</sup>

<sup>2. Excludes amounts attributable to non-controlling interests.</sup>

<sup>3. See Reconciliation of Net Income to Distributable Earnings on page 6 and Non-IFRS and Performance Measures on page 9 of Brookfield Corporation's press release dated May 14, 2026.</sup>

<sup>4. Per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect Brookfield Corporation's three-for-two stock split completed on October 9, 2025.</sup>

Brookfield Corporation net income above is presented under IFRS. Given the economic equivalence, we expect that the market price of the class A shares of our company will be impacted significantly by the market price of the Brookfield class A shares and the business performance of Brookfield as a whole. In addition to carefully considering the disclosure made in this news release in its entirety, shareholders are strongly encouraged to carefully review Brookfield Corporation's letter to shareholders, supplemental information and its other continuous disclosure filings.
