Onex Partners recently completed the first close of Onex Partners VI vehicles, exceeding expectations with more than $2 billion in capital commitments. In Credit, we raised or extended $3.5 billion of CLOs and produced quarterly fee-related earnings of $20 million in Structured Credit.

Convex Results

The fair value of Onex’ investment in Convex was $4.1 billion as of September 30, 2026. The valuation was broadly unchanged versus prior quarter as Convex’ tangible book value remained flat at $3.5 billion. While Convex generated $132 million of net income during the quarter, which would have increased tangible book value, this was offset by unrealized losses on its fixed-income portfolio resulting from higher interest rates. Following Convex’ accounting change in the prior quarter, unrealized gains and losses on its fixed-income portfolio are now recorded in other comprehensive income rather than net income, increasing or decreasing tangible book value accordingly.

On a per share basis, the value of Onex’ investment in Convex increased to C$77.59 from C$76.82 as of June 30, 2026. This was a result of a reduction in Onex’ fully diluted shares outstanding due to share repurchases under the normal course issuer bid.

Since the acquisition closed in February 2026, Convex’ valuation has increased by $323 million, or 8%.

The valuation of Convex is based on an assumed 2.0x price-to-tangible book value multiple, unchanged from the prior quarter, and supported by Convex’ return on equity, earnings growth and continued market share gains. Convex is expected to continue benefiting from higher operating leverage as the business continues to scale, prudent growth in its asset leverage and improved yield on its investment portfolio. At this valuation, the implied price to earnings multiple is 10.6x on an LTM adjusted net income basis and an adjusted return on average tangible equity(5) of 18.5%.

Additional key performance metrics for Convex include the following:

Acquisition Ratio 24.2%  19.1% 
Expense Ratio 13.3%  12.9% 
Combined Ratio 92.7%  79.3% 

(i) Convex’ net income is calculated based on generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). Adjusted net income for the three months ended September 30, 2026 equals net income, as the period followed Convex’ accounting change in May 2026. Prior period adjusted net income is presented as if the change had always applied, excluding $14 million of unrealized mark-to-market gains on Convex’ investment portfolio in 2025. Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure that does not have standardized meaning prescribed under US GAAP. Therefore, this measure may not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other companies. Refer to the 2026 Year-To-Date Results & Activity section of Onex’ Q3 2026 Interim MD&A and the supplementary financial schedules in this press release for further details concerning Convex’ adjusted net income and other Convex’ performance metrics.

Combined Ratio 87.0%  89.9% 
     
Adjusted Return on Average Tangible Equity (ROE) (ii) 18.5%  18.0% 

(i) Adjusted net income for the twelve months ended September 30, 2026 excludes $41 million of one-time transaction costs related to Onex’ acquisition of Convex (2025 – nil) and $46 million of unrealized mark-to-market losses (2025 – $18 million) on Convex’ investment portfolio, which were recognized in net income prior to the accounting change.
(ii) Calculated utilizing Adjusted Net Income.

Gross premiums written increased 20% year-over-year in the third quarter of 2026, with growth across both insurance and reinsurance, despite a 4% year-to-date decline in pricing. Net premiums earned increased 8% year-over-year. Strong third quarter gross premium growth is expected to contribute more significantly to net premiums earned in future quarters.

For the twelve months ended September 30, 2026, gross premiums written and net premiums earned increased 8% and 7%, respectively. Adjusted net income increased 13% to $659 million from $584 million in the prior year period, representing a return on equity of 18.5%. This growth was primarily driven by improved underwriting performance, with underwriting profit increasing to $496 million from $357 million. The combined ratio improved 290 basis points year-over-year to 87.0%, including a reduction in the loss ratio to 50.0% from 56.0%.

Additional Recent Highlights

  • Onex had approximately $9.6 billion of investing capital(6) as of September 30, 2026 as compared with $9.5 billion as of June 30, 2026 and $8.7 billion at year-end 2025. Investing capital per fully diluted share(7) was $125.73 (C$178.93) as of September 30, 2026, a year-over-year increase of approximately 7% (9% in Canadian dollars), excluding the dilutive impact of issuing 7.5 million shares to AIG in connection with the acquisition of Convex. Onex’ investing capital comprised $4.1 billion from Convex ($54.52 or C$77.59 per fully diluted share) and $5.4 billion from Other Investing Capital ($71.21 or C$101.34 per fully diluted share).

  • Since the Convex acquisition, Onex has continued to reshape its investing capital in line with its new strategy. On a proforma basis, Private Equity now represents 43%(8) of investing capital, down from 65% at year-end 2025. Onex has also reduced excess cash and repaid a large portion of the NAV loan, enabling more efficient balance sheet utilization.

  • Onex’ private equity investments generated a net fair value gain of $88 million during Q3 2026 (Q3 2025: $21 million). Onex’ credit investments generated a net fair value gain of $2 million during Q3 2026 (Q3 2025: $17 million). Onex’ exposure to direct lending is limited, with less than 1% of its investing capital invested in direct lending strategies.

  • In November, Onex Partners completed the first close of Onex Partners VI vehicles, with more than $2 billion in capital commitments, including Onex’ commitment of up to $300 million. The closing included a 100% participation rate among institutional Onex Partners Opportunities Fund investors, achieved the largest number of institutional investors to ever participate in an Onex Partners first close, and increases the proportion of third-party capital compared to the predecessor flagship fund.

  • During Q3 and early Q4, Onex agreed to sell a portion of its interests in certain Onex Partners funds through several secondary transactions, which are expected to generate approximately $334 million in proceeds to Onex, which represented 92% of June 30, 2026 carrying value. We expect additional proceeds to Onex pending further syndication of the interests, and all proceeds are expected to be received by the end of the first quarter of 2027. These sales also established new fee-generating assets under management for the Onex Partners platform.

  • In October, the ONCAP IV Group agreed to sell a portion of its investment in Walter Surface Technologies to a single-asset continuation fund managed by ONCAP. Onex’ current share of the related realization is approximately $50 million, with additional proceeds to Onex expected pending further syndication. The transaction is expected to close later in 2026.

  • Onex Credit raised or extended eight CLO transactions in Q3 representing $3.5 billion in fee-generating AUM and generated $20 million in fee-related earnings from Structured Credit.

  • Onex repurchased 808,012 Subordinate Voting Shares (SVS) in the third quarter for $64 million (C$89 million) or an average cost per share of $78.82 (C$109.99).

  • Total fee-generating assets under management (“FGAUM”) was approximately $43.7 billion as of September 30, 2026, with Credit and Private Equity FGAUM totaling $31.5 billion and $12.1 billion, respectively.

  • Unrealized carried interest from funds managed by Onex totaled $310 million as of September 30, 2026.

  • Onex’ cash and near-cash(9) balance was $161 million as of September 30, 2026, versus $2.1 billion as of December 31, 2025. The principal balance outstanding on Onex’ senior secured credit facility is $220 million. Onex also has access to $600 million of undrawn capacity under its revolving credit facility.  

Dividend Declaration

The Board of Directors has declared a fourth quarter dividend of C$0.10 per Subordinate Voting Share payable on January 31, 2027, to shareholders of record on January 8, 2027.

Convex Adjusted Net Income and Return on Equity

In May 2026, Convex completed the transition of its fixed-income investment portfolio to an available-for-sale accounting classification. Unrealized gains and losses on the portfolio are now recorded in other comprehensive income rather than net income. Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure and adjusted return on equity is a non-GAAP financial ratio. The tables below provide a reconciliation of Convex’ net income to adjusted net income, with prior periods presented as if available-for-sale (“AFS”) accounting had applied throughout.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, Onex also incurred $15 million of acquisition-related costs for Convex.

(3) Asset management fee-related earnings exclude Onex’ public company expenses and other expenses associated with managing Onex’ investing capital and is a component of total fee-related earnings.
(4) Total fee-related earnings and distributable earnings are non-GAAP financial measures that do not have standardized meaning prescribed under International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS Accounting Standards”). Therefore, they may not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other companies. The most directly comparable financial measure under IFRS Accounting Standards to fee-related earnings and distributable earnings is Onex’ net earnings. Refer to the 2026 Year-To-Date Results & Activity section of Onex’ Q3 2026 Interim MD&A and the supplementary financial schedules in this press release for further details concerning fee-related earnings and distributable earnings.
(5) The adjusted return of average tangible equity is a non-GAAP ratio calculated using methodologies that are not in accordance with US GAAP. The presentation of this ratio does not have a standardized meaning prescribed under US GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar ratios presented by other companies. Onex management believes that the adjusted return on average tangible equity provides useful information on Convex’ financial performance. The adjusted return on average tangible equity is calculated as adjusted net income divided by average tangible equity.
(6) Investing capital is a non-GAAP financial measure that does not have a standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS Accounting Standards. Therefore, it may not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other companies. The most directly comparable financial measure under IFRS Accounting Standards to investing capital is total assets. As of September 30, 2026, Onex’ consolidated assets were $10.8 billion (December 31, 2025 - $11.5 billion). Refer to the supplementary financial schedules in this press release for further details concerning investing capital, including a reconciliation of the Convex and Other Investing Capital segment assets to Onex’ total assets.
(7) Investing capital per share is a non-GAAP ratio calculated using methodologies that are not in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. The presentation of this ratio does not have a standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS Accounting Standards and therefore may not be comparable to similar ratios presented by other companies. Investing capital per share is calculated as investing capital divided by the number of fully diluted shares outstanding. The percentage changes in investing capital per share exclude the impact of capital deployed in Onex’ asset management segment, where applicable, and dividends paid by Onex. Refer to the glossary in Onex’ Q3 2026 Interim MD&A for further details concerning fully diluted shares.
(8) Includes transactions that have signed and/or closed up to November 12, 2026.
(9) Cash and near-cash is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated using methodologies that are not in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. The presentation of this measure does not have a standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS Accounting Standards and therefore might not be comparable to similar financial measures presented by other companies. The most directly comparable financial measure under IFRS Accounting Standards to cash and near-cash is Onex’ consolidated cash and cash equivalents balance, which was $63 million as of September 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025 - $1.3 billion). Refer to the Cash and Near-Cash section of Onex’ Q3 2026 Interim MD&A and the supplementary financial schedules in this press release for further details concerning Onex’ cash and near-cash.
