Jared: I'll now turn the call over to Jared. Thanks, Bryan. As you just heard, we had a strong quarter by the numbers, and I'd like to now build on that by walking through some of the operational drivers behind the performance and how we're positioned for what's next. So, let's start with flows and outlook. We came into 2025 with real client momentum, and Q1 was a fantastic start to the year with over $3 billion in net inflows across a diverse set of products. That said, we're now operating in a more volatile market, but that's exactly where WisdomTree shines.
Jerry: Thanks, Brian.
Jerry: As you just heard we had a strong quarter by the numbers and I'd like to now build on that by walking through some of the operational drivers behind the performance and how we're positioned for what's next so let's start with flows and outlook.
Jerry: We came into 2025 with real client momentum and Q1 was a fantastic start to the year with over 3 billion in net inflows across a diverse set of products that said, we're now operating in a more volatile market, but that's exactly where wisdom tree shines we're very.
Jared: We are very well positioned, with our AUM being more balanced today than at any point in our history. And that diversification is serving us well with our large exposures to gold and the metals in Europe and USFR here in the US. It is noteworthy that our group AUM is up this month and is up year-to-date, a standout versus our peers. It's also worth highlighting the exceptional launch of our WisdomTree European Defense Fund, which brought in $770 million in Q1 alone and has already added more than $700 million in April. This is one of the most successful launches in our history, and the fund's flow momentum, creating shares every day but one since launch, should not be overlooked.
Jerry: <unk> well positioned with our M being more balanced today than in any point in our history and that diversification is serving us well with our large exposures to gold in the metals in Europe and U S. So far here in the U S. It is noteworthy there are group AUM is up.
Jerry: This month and is up year to date, a stand out versus our peers. It's also worth highlighting the exceptional launch of our wisdom tree European Defense Fund, which brought in $770 million in Q1 alone and has already added more than $700 million in April this is Juan.
Jerry: The most successful launches in our history and the funds flow momentum, creating shares every day, but one since launch should not be overlooked.
Jerry: Beyond the impressive blows. This launch is a clear example of our ability to adapt to evolving market dynamics and act as a pioneer of unique first of their kind investment ideas, we began focusing on shifting geopolitical risks over a year ago.
Jared: Beyond the impressive flows, this launch is a clear example of our ability to adapt to evolving market dynamics and act as a pioneer of unique, first-of-their-kind investment ideas. We began focusing on shifting geopolitical risks over a year ago with the introduction of our geopolitical risk-aware model portfolios. And we've since carried those insights forward into a broader suite of ETF offerings. A case in point, we are in the final stages of repositioning our European currency hedge small-cap fund into a more expansive European opportunities fund, one that not only reflects a broader opportunity set but also embeds the geopolitical themes we believe are increasingly relevant.
Jerry: So with the introduction of our geopolitical risk aware model portfolios.
Jerry: And we since carried those insights forward into a broader suite of E. T S offerings.
Jerry: Case in point, we are in the final stages of repositioning our European currency hedged small cap fund into a more expansive European opportunities fund one that not only reflects a broader opportunity set but also embeds. The geopolitical themes, we believe or increase.
Jerry: Singly relevant we see greater potential in this strategy and we believe our differentiated ability to innovate and bring timely high conviction products to market is a key ingredient in driving industry, leading organic growth.
Jared: We see greater AUM potential in this strategy, and we believe our differentiated ability to innovate and bring timely, high-conviction products to market is a key ingredient in driving industry-leading organic growth. Looking beyond flows, we continue to focus on deepening and expanding the quality of our client relationships. Through Q1, we are on track to grow the total number of clients using WisdomTree products by 4% this year, a pace that continues the strong client growth we saw in 2024. And those clients are using more of our solutions than ever before, with the average product usage per client growing at a double-digit annualized rate so far this year.
Jerry: Beyond flows we continue to focus on deepening and expanding the quality of our client relationships through Q1, we are on track to grow the total number of clients using wisdom tree products by 4%. This year a pace that continues the strong client growth we saw in 2012.
Jerry: Four and those clients are using more of our solutions than ever before with the average product usage per client growing at a double digit annualized rate. So far this year and that's a powerful combination deepening relationships, while expanding reach and it is exactly.
Jared: And that's a powerful combination, deepening relationships while expanding reach, and it's exactly the formula that drives sustainable long-term organic growth. Our Model Portfolios business remains a standout, with AUA reaching $4 billion, that's up 4% to date, reflecting a nearly 20% annualized organic growth rate. This momentum highlights our growing mindshare and wallet share, even in a tough market, with 2,700 advisors now using our model. we're on track to meet our 2025 growth targets. Our portfolio consultations practice, powered by AI-driven analytics, has tripled output versus a year ago, strengthening our broader portfolio solutions offering. With an addressable market of 85,000 advisors and $8 trillion in assets, we see significant runway ahead and are focused on deepening our market penetration.

Jerry: <unk> eight trillion in assets, we see significant runway ahead and are focused on deepening our market penetration.
Jared: Finally, on digital assets, we're continuing to build traction across both WisdomTree Prime and WisdomTree Connect. In Q1, we expanded Prime's availability to Georgia, Tennessee, and North Carolina, and we saw modest growth in both the number of accounts and client assets. As I mentioned last quarter, our target opportunity is the on-chain community, a segment where the infrastructure is still catching up and where our on- and off-ramps are not yet in place. We expect to begin enabling on-chain transfers for a subset of users in the coming months, with broader functionality coming in September.
Jerry: Finally on digital assets, we're continuing to build traction across both wisdom tree Prime and wisdom tree connect in Q1, we expanded primes availability to Georgia, Tennessee, and North Carolina, and we saw modest growth in both the number of accounts and client assets.

Jerry: Once with broader functionality coming in September.
Jared: Meanwhile, WisdomTree Connect continues to differentiate us. We remain the only asset manager with a full suite of tokenized funds on-chain, and we've now opened access to institutional users across multiple blockchains. So, across the board, flows, client growth, model portfolios, digital infrastructure, we're executing on what we can control and positioning the business to capitalize on the opportunities ahead.

Jon: And with that, I'll hand it over to Jon. Thanks, Jared. Hello, everyone.
Jonathan: Bounce Jaret here.

That builds on WisdomTree's 73% increase in earnings per share in 2024. Our strong multi-year momentum continues in 2025. Uninterrupted. WisdomTree's strong organic growth and flows help drive our earnings growth. with over $3 billion in net inflows in Q1, that's an 11% organic growth rate, one of the fastest in the industry. WisdomTree is worthy of a higher multiple. We are executing exceptionally well.

Speaker Change: Q clear recent examples of that.
Jon: Two clear, recent examples of that. as Jared and Bryan mentioned. The WisdomTree European Defense Fund, launched 7 weeks ago, has brought in over $1.4 billion in net inflows year-to-date, making it our 26th fund with more than $1 billion in AUF. It was the first UCEDD fund offering a pure basket of European defense dollars. As the Trump administration is pushing Europe to spend 5% of their GDP on self-defense. The fund has had broad appeal to all flavor of investors. virtually every region and every channel. I've been doing this for a long time, but it's still so much fun when a fund really, really connects with the moment.
Speaker Change: As Jared and Brian mentioned the Wii.
Speaker Change: Wisdom tree European Defense Fund launched seven weeks ago has brought in over $1 4 billion of net inflows year to date, making it our 26th fund with more than $1 billion in AUR.

Speaker Change: And for wisdom tree shareholders.
Speaker Change: Never know whats possible till it happens.
Jon: Next, I'd like to draw your attention to our tokenized products, which brought in over 100 million inflows year-to-date. It's just the beginning. I know it's early. But it's exciting to see this strategic initiative. starting to prove itself with tangible success. Remember, WisdomTree has the most extensive suite of tokenized real-world assets across equities, fixed income, and commodities. WisdomTree has positioned itself to be a huge beneficiary as adoption expands. another multiple expander. On the AUM front, diversification continues to be a real strength for WisdomTree across geographies, asset classes, and client types. It wasn't always that way. 10 years ago, this was not a strength for the company.
Speaker Change: Next I'd like to draw your attention to our <unk> products, which brought in over $100 million inflows year to date.
Speaker Change: It's just the beginning.
Speaker Change: I know it's early.

On the upfront diversification continues to be a real strength for wisdom tree across geographies and asset classes and client types.
Speaker Change: It wasn't always that way.
Speaker Change: 10 years ago. This was not a strength for the company.
Jon: But today it is. It's the result of years of disciplined organic and inorganic execution. Another reason I feel WisdomTree is undervalued.
Speaker Change: But today it is.
Speaker Change: It's the result of years of disciplined organic and inorganic execution.
Speaker Change: Another reason I feel wisdom tree is undervalued.
Jon: Lastly, I'd like you to think about our business model. With 116 billion in AUM and approximately 300 employees, our efficiency stands out. as WisdomTree begins to deploy AI across every aspect of our global platform. I'm energized by how it will further improve our efficiency. and the speed and quality of our execution. The future is incredibly bright for WisdomTree.

Speaker Change: Thank you and many congrats on the European Defense Fund, that's a that's a biggie so.
George Sutton: So I wondered if we could talk a little bit more in detail about the on and the off ramp opportunity for WisdomTree Prime. You mentioned some near term timing, but then also a little more expanded rollout in September. Can you just give us a better sense of what you mean by that? Absolutely, George. Thank you for the question.
George Sutton: Wondered if we could talk a little bit more in detail about the on and the off ramp opportunity for wisdom tree Prime you mentioned some near term timing, but then also a little more expanded.
George Sutton: Rollout in September can you just give us a better sense of what you mean by that.
Speaker Change: Absolutely George Thank you for the question will pack our head of digital assets will you take this.
Will Peck: Will Peck, our head of digital assets. Will, will you take this? Hey, George. Yeah, thanks for the question. You know, good morning. So in terms of the on and off brands, I mean, I think that's actually one of the most critical features if you're doing something in the public blockchain space, right? The ability to interact with stable coins that are out there, other crypto assets like Bitcoin and Ether, and allow our products to travel to external wallets as well, right? So that, to me, is like one of the core user experience enhancements and really allows us to go after the crypto-native community that's out there.
Speaker Change: Hey, George Thanks for the question good morning.
Speaker Change: So in terms of the on and off ramps I mean, I think that's actually one of the most critical features if youre doing something in the public blockchain space right the ability to interact with stable coins that are out there other crypto assets like bitcoin and Easter and allow our products to travel two external walls as well right.
Speaker Change: So that to me is like one of the core user experience enhancements and really allows us to go after the crypto native community. That's out there. So as we've talked about in the past it's been you know a.
Will Peck: So as we've talked about in the past, it's been, you know, a regulatory grind. You could say we still need some states. We still need some of these product features like the external transferability. We're targeting rolling that out in kind of a measured way over the course of the summer, which sets up in September where we could really kind of increase marketing spend and really go after that user base from there. So that's some of the stuff that Jarrett was referring to when he made that point in the prepared remarks.
George Sutton: Our regulatory grind you could stay we still need some states we still need some of these product features like the external transferability, we're targeting rolling that out and kind of a measured way over the course of the summer, which steps up in September where we could really kind of increased marketing spend and really go after that user base from there. So that's some of the stuff that add chair it was referring to when he made at that point.
Speaker Change: In the prepared remarks.
Will Peck: And Will, just a brief follow-up there, relative to partners or distribution, is September the time frame when we might anticipate some partner announcements and things like that? We're not going to give any sort of specific forecast in terms of that. I mean, I think we're in lots of conversations currently, you know, as you know, we mentioned, we had $100 million in flows here to date through the WisdomTree Connect platforms through some partner relationships. So we're seeing the early green shoots of a lot of those relationships so far. And I think we'll continue to build those out in that time period.
Speaker Change: Well just a brief follow up there relative to partners or distribution.
Speaker Change: As of September the timeframe, when we might anticipate some partner announcements and things like that.
We're not going to give any sort of specific forecast in terms of that I mean, I think we're in lots of conversations currently you know as we mentioned we had $100 million in flows year to date through the wisdom for connect platforms through some partner relationship. So we're seeing the early green shoots of a lot of those relationships.
Speaker Change: So far and I think we'll continue to build those out and at that time period, but theres no kind of like guidance in terms of partnership announcements.
Will Peck: But there's no kind of like guidance in terms of partnership announcement.
George Sutton: And if I could just ask, John, a follow-up on the AI deployment. Can you give us a little bit more of a sense of how it's going to get deployed and what sort of impacts you might anticipate? Oh, yeah.
Speaker Change: And if I could just ask John with a follow up on the AI deployment can you give us a little bit more of a sense of how it's going to get deployed when what sort of impacts you might anticipate.
Speaker Change: Yes.
Speaker Change: And I'm going to turn it over to you Jared in a moment, but I will say that regulated financial services requires employees and so you can't just go.
Jon: And I'm going to turn it over to you, Jared, in a moment. But I will say that, you know, regulated financial services requires employees. And so you can't just go, you know, the FTC won't. You know, look, just to code for approval, human beings have to stand in the middle. So, and we have this incredible culture, which I think is a true advantage in implementing AI throughout the firm.
Speaker Change: The SEC won't.
Speaker Change: Look just to code for approval human beings have to stand in the middle.
Speaker Change: So and we have this incredible culture, which I think.
Speaker Change: Is it true advantage in implementing AI throughout the firm, but Jarrett why don't you go into the specifics.
Jared: But, Jared, why don't you go into the specifics. Sure. And I think, you know, just following up on that, a lot of people talk about using AI. We're really doing it. And I think the size of our company makes that more possible. We've got everyone in the company involved.
Jarrett: Sure I think.
Jarrett: Just following up on that a lot of people talk about using AI.
Jarrett: We're really doing it.
Jarrett: Thank the size of our company makes it more possible.
Jarrett: We've got everyone in the company involved in we're really looking at three broad buckets of where we can use AI to enhance our performance in the first bucket is really how do we enhance the customer experience and customer outcomes. The second one is how do we enhance growth and efficiency.
Jared: And we're really looking at three broad buckets of where we can use AI to enhance our performance. And the first bucket's really how do we enhance the customer experience and customer outcomes? The second one is how do we enhance growth and efficiency? And the third one, I think, is very interesting, is how do we actually enhance decision-making? And in all cases, it's about doing more better and doing more faster. And I can go into more detail. But, you know, in every part of the company, we're seeing results, whether that's in sales research, marketing, tech, and even in our legal workstream.
Jarrett: And the third one I think is very interesting is how do we actually enhance decision making in all cases, it's about doing more better and doing more faster.
Jarrett: And I can go into more detail, but you know in every other than every part of the company. We're seeing results whether that's in sales research marketing tech and even in our legal work streams. So it's across the board with every employee.
Jared: So it's across the board with every employee.
Jarrett: Perfect. Congrats on the results thanks, guys.
George Sutton: Perfect, congrats on the results. Thanks, guys. Thank you.
Jarrett: Thank you.
Jarrett: And a reminder to the audience to ask a question press star one.
Operator: For reminders to the audience, to ask a question, press star 1.
Speaker Change: Your next question comes from Mike Grondahl with Northland Securities. Please state your question.
Mike Grondahl: Your next question comes from Mike Grondahl with Northland Securities. Hey, guys, thanks. Um, can you just give us a little bit of update on your crypto funds today? You know, digital assets, and sort of how you see those developing over the next year or two? And then secondly, just kind of, I know you can't name names, but like, how does the pipeline look for some new ETFs? Jeremy or I think maybe you could touch on our crypto in Europe or in the U.S. You want to start there? Maybe, Will, you'll have something to add. Yeah, you know, in the U.S., from a pure crypto perspective, we've focused on Bitcoin.
Mike Grondahl: Hey, guys. Thanks can.
Can you just give us a little bit of update on your crypto funds today Digi.
Mike Grondahl: Digital assets and sort of how you see those developing over the next year or two.
Mike Grondahl: And then secondly, just kind of I know you can't name names, but like how does the pipeline look for some new Etfs.
Mike Grondahl: Yes.
Mike Grondahl: Jeremy or I think maybe you could touch on or crypto in Europe or in the U S. You want to start there may be we'll you'll have something to add.
Mike Grondahl: Yeah, you know in the U S Europe and from a pure crypto perspective, we've focused on bitcoin and then in Europe. We've had a it's really where we've shown a lot more leadership in having baskets, we launched a E.
Jared: And then in Europe, it's really where we've shown a lot more leadership in having baskets. We launched a broad 20-coin basket product, and we had some good early capital, around $100 million, come into that type of basket. We've taken in over $100 million in the crypto offering in Europe this year. And so we're seeing good leadership out of Europe. We continue to look at the U.S. in what to do, in terms of more crypto offerings. We're certainly focused on that in the Prime app that Will is going to talk about. But I think as you get a new regulatory environment in the U.S., we'll start to look to see what else we can do in the U.S.
Mike Grondahl: A broad 20, Queen basket product and we had some good early capital around $100 million come in to that type of basket, we've taken in over $100 million in the crypto offering in Europe. This year and so we're seeing good leadership out of Europe. We continue to look at the U S and what you do in terms of more crypto offerings for certain.
Mike Grondahl: So that in the prime App that will is overseeing.
Mike Grondahl: But I think as you get a new regulatory environment in the U S will start to look to see what else. We can do in the U S is a very restrictive environment here in the U S for a while in terms of the broader product set you you asked about.
