Artisan Partners reported its preliminary May 2026 assets under management totaled a robust $186.0 billion, with $92.3 billion in Artisan Funds and $93 billion in separate accounts.

Actual outcome: Mixed · $37.58 at outcome
Artisan Partners reported Q1 2026 EPS of $1.32, exactly in line with estimates, so the headline earnings result was neutral rather than a clear beat or miss. The company also declared its quarterly dividend, but the provided release snippet does not show a standout positive or negative guidance surprise on AUM, performance fees, or capital return policy, which helps explain why the stock stayed essentially flat.

Actual outcome: Mixed · $36.07 at outcome
Artisan Partners reported February 2026 AUM of $188.5 billion, a figure that signaled a stable management fee base but failed to provide the growth catalyst necessary to reach bull targets. The stock remained range-bound as the steady AUM data was offset by news of Citigroup significantly reducing its stake in the company, leading to a neutral market reaction.
- Fri20Feb
Actual outcome: Bull · $45.12 at outcome
Artisan Partners delivered a strong fundamental outcome, reporting Q4 2025 EPS of $1.26, significantly beating the $1.11 consensus estimate. This substantial earnings beat, coupled with the declaration of a quarterly and special annual dividend, drove the stock higher immediately following the release, nearly reaching the bull target. Although news reports noted persistent customer outflows, the strong profitability and dividend payout supported the bull thesis for the quarter.
