Invesco posted adjusted diluted EPS of $0.57 for Q1 2026, just shy of the $0.58 consensus estimate, against net revenues of $1.3 billion, a $155 million improvement year-over-year driven primarily by higher average AUM and the reclassification of the QQQ to fee-earning status following the Q2 fund conversion in late 2024. The headline miss on EPS is largely a function of a $33 million one-time acceleration in compensation expense tied to changes in retirement eligibility criteria for long-term awards, a timing item that management flagged as non-recurring in nature. Strip that out and the underlying operating trajectory looks considerably stronger, with adjusted operating margin reaching 34.5%, up 300 basis points year-over-year, and 500 basis points of positive operating leverage generated in the quarter.
