About this update from Brc Group Holdings, Inc.

First Quarter 2026 Net Income Available to Common Shareholders of $211.3 Million; First Quarter 2026 Adjusted EBITDA of $262.2 Million; Operating Adjusted EBITDA of $34.6 Million LOS ANGELES , May 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ --BRC Group Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: RILY) ("BRCGH" or the "Company"), a diversified holding company, today announced the filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three month period ended March 31, 2026. First Quarter 2026 Highlights Bryant Riley, Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer of BRCGH, commented : "For the first quarter, we generated $211.3 million in net income and $34.6 million in Operating Adjusted EBITDA. We made progress on the balance sheet, retiring $129 million in debt while continuing to deliver for our clients. B. Riley Securities had its most active quarter for capital raising in five years, executing on nearly $10 billion in total debt and equity raised. "Our team was active across the entire capital structure. During the quarter, we acted as joint lead bookrunner on a $230 million convert, participated in a $1.3 billion follow-on, led key M&A advisory and restructuring mandates and filed $8.7 billion in new ATMs. We also expanded our research footprint, initiating coverage on 26 companies in the first quarter. "As we look ahead, our strategy is built on our 30-year heritage and an expanding opportunity set for our team. Over the last three decades, we have built this platform to serve as an active advisory partner and liquidity provider to companies in the historically underserved small- and mid-cap market. Our first-quarter also reflects the significant value generated by our principal investments. While the timing of these returns naturally varies, this merchant banking capability is a deliberate feature of our model designed to capture significant upside alongside our clients. The planned combination of our institutional banking and capital markets business and B. Riley Wealth aligns us to better serve this core client base and put proprietary capital to work to back our partners. Our focus has proven to be a major differentiator for recruiting, and we continue to add top-tier producers who recognize the value of our franchise. "With a strengthened balance sheet, steady contributions of our non-correlated Communications and Consumer businesses, an expanding pipeline, and operational discipline, we remain focused on executing for our team, our clients, and our shareholders. We look forward to discussing with our clients and partners at our 26th Annual Institutional Investor Conference later this month."
