Franklin Resources Inc
Investor Relations

Franklin Resources, better known as Franklin Templeton, is an investment management company. It builds and manages mutual funds, exchange-traded funds, retirement products, and separate accounts that invest in stocks, bonds, and other assets. Its customers are mainly individual investors, financial advisers, retirement plans, and large institutions that want professional money management. The company makes money by charging fees for managing assets and, in some cases, for advisory and distribution services tied to its funds. Clients pay Franklin to select investments, run portfolios, and handle day-to-day fund operations. That means its business depends on the amount of money clients entrust to it and the mix of products they choose. What sets Franklin apart is its role as a packaged-investments provider rather than a bank or broker. It sells access to active portfolio management through its own fund families and investment teams, and it reaches investors through advisers, retirement platforms, and institutional channels. In simple terms, it sits between the people who want their money invested and the markets where that money is put to work.

AI Summary
Q2 2026

Flows: Franklin Templeton delivered $16.9 billion of long-term net inflows, with positive flows in every region and record gross sales across the platform.

Alternatives: Private markets fundraising was a standout, with $14.3 billion raised in alternatives and $13.2 billion in private market assets; management said year-to-date private markets fundraising is already in line to exceed the raised annual target of $25 billion to $30 billion.

ETF Growth: ETF AUM reached a new high of $61.6 billion, up 67% from last year, driven by active ETFs, muni fund conversions, and strong country and regional ETF demand.

Canvas Momentum: Canvas hit record AUM of $22.9 billion, up 27% from the prior quarter, with $5.3 billion of net inflows as tax-managed personalization continued to gain traction.

Expense Outlook: Management guided third-quarter expenses with stable fee rates, slightly higher AI-related technology spend, and elevated fundraising costs, while reiterating expectations for margin expansion into fiscal 2027.

AI Strategy: Franklin described AI as early but already useful across distribution, operations, and investment teams, including an AI-powered sales hub that is already helping wholesalers reach about 10% more clients.
