This strong business growth reflects the strength of our diversified business model, our distinctive distribution capabilities and the continued execution of our growth strategy. The increase in common dividends announced today reflects our strong business fundamentals and growth momentum.”

Contractual Service Margin (CSM) 16

During the third quarter, the CSM increased organically by $84 million. This increase was driven by the positive impact of new insurance business of $198 million, organic financial growth of $121 million and a net insurance experience gain of $1 million, partly offset by the CSM recognized for services provided in earnings of $236 million, up 12% from a year earlier. Non-organic items led to a decrease in the CSM of $33 million, mainly due to the unfavourable impact of market variations of $35 million. As a result, the total CSM increased by $51 million (+1%) during the quarter and is 11% higher than a year earlier.

Business Growth

During the third quarter, sales and business retention contributed to the strong growth in net premiums, premium equivalents and deposits, which reached nearly $6.1 billion, a 16% increase compared to the same period last year. Total assets under management and assets under administration totalled $375 billion as at September 30, 2026, a strong increase of 30% over the last 12 months. In Individual Wealth Management, total gross sales reached more than $3.2 billion, while combined net inflows were close to $1.3 billion. The Company continued to rank first in Canada for both gross and net individual segregated fund sales. 17 In Canada, Individual Insurance sales were strong at $115 million, a 13% increase over the same period in 2025, and the Company maintained its leading position for the number of policies sold, 18 while continuing to focus on profitable, sustainable growth. In the United States, Individual Insurance sales recorded a 24% year-over-year increase and Dealer Services sales were 4% higher than the same quarter a year earlier.

US OPERATIONS

ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT AND ASSETS UNDER ADMINISTRATION

Total assets under management and assets under administration amounted to $375 billion as at September 30, 2026, recording an increase of 30% over the last 12 months. This solid growth was driven by strong net fund inflows, particularly for segregated funds, by the performance of financial markets, and by the addition of assets under administration from the RF Capital Group 20 acquisition completed on October 31, 2025. The Company maintained its position as the Canadian leader in segregated fund assets under management. 21

NET PREMIUMS, PREMIUM EQUIVALENTS AND DEPOSITS

Net premiums, premium equivalents and deposits amounted to nearly $6.1 billion in the third quarter, which is 16% higher than the same period last year. This performance was mainly driven by the results in the Wealth Management segment, with almost all other business units also delivering good growth.

FINANCIAL POSITION

The Company’s solvency ratio was 131% as at September 30, 2026, compared to 137% at the end of the previous quarter and 138% a year earlier. This result is well above the regulatory minimum ratio of 90%. The six-percentage-point decrease during the quarter is mainly the result of the subordinated debenture redemption outlined further on in this section and, to a lesser extent, capital deployed for share buybacks (NCIB) and unfavourable macroeconomic variations. These unfavourable items were partially offset by solid quarterly organic capital generation. The Company’s financial leverage ratio †† was 16.5% as at September 30, 2026 compared to 18.6% at the end of the previous quarter. This variation is mainly explained by the impact of capital management initiatives during the quarter, primarily the redemption of the subordinated debentures outlined further on in this section.

Organic Capital Generation

The Company organically generated $180 million in capital during the third quarter compared to $170 million for the same period in 2025. After nine months, $515 million has been generated in 2026. This solid result is in line with projections to meet the annual target of at least $700 million in 2026. 22

Capital Available for Deployment

As at September 30, 2026, the capital available for deployment 23 was assessed at $0.9 billion compared to $1.1 billion at the end of the previous quarter.

Book Value

The book value per common share was $81.71 as at September 30, 2026, compared to $80.55 as at June 30, 2026 and $79.22 as at September 30, 2025. During the last 12 months, it increased by 3%, reflecting higher retained earnings that were partly offset by the impact of the share buybacks (NCIB) and dividend payments to common shareholders.

Normal Course Issuer Bid (NCIB)

During the third quarter, the Company repurchased 917,600 outstanding common shares for a total value of $189 million and cancelled a total of 1,080,700 common shares. The shares cancelled include 163,100 shares that had been repurchased during the second quarter, representing $31 million. From the beginning of the current NCIB and up to September 30, 2026, the Company repurchased and cancelled 4,981,331 shares, or 5.4% of the outstanding shares.

Dividends

The Company paid a quarterly dividend of $1.1000 per share to common shareholders in the third quarter of 2026. The Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $1.1800 per share payable during the fourth quarter of 2026, an increase of $0.08 per share, or 7%, compared to the dividend paid in the previous quarter. This dividend is payable on December 15, 2026 to the common shareholders of record as at November 20, 2026. The core dividend payout ratio †† was 27.3% in the third quarter, which is in the lower half of the target range of 25% to 35%. 22 In addition, the Board of Directors approved a semi-annual dividend of $32.1750 per Non-Cumulative 5-Year Rate Reset Class A Preferred Shares Series C. 24 This dividend is payable on December 31, 2026 to the preferred shareholders of record at the close of business on December 4, 2026.

NON-IFRS AND ADDITIONAL FINANCIAL MEASURES

iA Financial Corporation reports its financial results and statements in accordance with IFRS ® Accounting Standards. The Company also publishes certain financial measures or ratios that are not presented in accordance with IFRS. The Company uses non-IFRS and other financial measures when evaluating its results and measuring its performance. The Company believes that such measures provide additional information to better understand its financial results and assess its growth and earnings potential, and that they facilitate comparison of the quarterly and full-year results of the Company’s ongoing operations. Since such non-IFRS and other financial measures do not have standardized definitions and meaning, they may differ from similar measures used by other institutions and should not be viewed as an alternative to measures of financial performance, financial position or cash flow determined in accordance with IFRS. The Company strongly encourages investors to review its financial statements and other publicly filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

Non-IFRS financial measures used in the document include core earnings (losses).

Non-IFRS ratios used in the document include core earnings per common share (core EPS); core return on common shareholders’ equity (core ROE); core dividend payout ratio; and financial leverage ratio.

Supplementary financial measures used in the document include return on common shareholders’ equity (ROE); components of the CSM movement analysis (organic CSM movement, impact of new insurance business, organic financial growth, insurance experience gains [losses], impact of changes in assumptions and management actions, impact of markets, currency impact); components of the drivers of earnings (in respect of both net income attributed to common shareholders and core earnings); assets under management; assets under administration; capital available for deployment; dividend payout ratio; organic capital generation (net of dividends); sales; net premiums; and premium equivalents and deposits.

For relevant information about non-IFRS measures, see the “Non-IFRS and Additional Financial Measures” section in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) for the period ended September 30, 2026, which is hereby incorporated by reference and is available for review on SEDAR+ at sedarplus.ca or on iA Financial Group’s website at ia.ca.

In addition, certain material factors or assumptions are applied in making forward-looking statements, and actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements.

Ongoing geopolitical tensions, including war in Ukraine and the Middle East, and escalating trade tensions between the U.S. and Canada, including tariffs, continue to disrupt supply chains and raise costs, contributing to economic uncertainty. Global equity markets could face increased volatility due to ongoing tariff risks, evolving interest rate expectations and general uncertainty. These factors may reduce consumer and investor confidence, increase financial instability and constrain growth prospects.

Additional information about the material factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations and about material factors or assumptions applied in making forward-looking statements may be found in the “Risk Management” section of the Management’s Discussion and Analysis for 2025, the “Management of Financial Risks Associated with Financial Instruments and Insurance Contracts” note to the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, and elsewhere in iA Financial Group’s filings with the Canadian Securities Administrators, which are available for review at sedarplus.ca.
