CALGARY, Alberta, March 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wilmington Capital Management Inc. (TSX: WCM.A, WCM.B) ("Wilmington" or the "Corporation") reports its fourth quarter and year end December 31, 2025 financial reports and provides an operational update.
For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025, the Corporation reported a net income of $0.2 million or $0.01 per share and a net loss of $0.5 million or ($0.04) per share, compared to a net loss of $0.8 million or ($0.06) per share and net income of $0.4 million or $0.03 per share for the same periods in 2024, respectively.
Outlook
As previously reported, beginning in August 2023, the Corporation took steps to monetize a number of its investments in order to unlock the value which had been substantially realized, distribute capital to its shareholders and simplify its business. The monetization plan has met with considerable success and Wilmington is well positioned to continue to build on its past history of delivering attractive long-term returns to shareholders.
Wilmington announced on November 31, 2025, as part of its transition plan, the changes in its leadership team and board of directors. Effective December 31, 2025, Messrs. Chris Killi, Joe Killi and Marc Sardachuk stepped down from their respective roles as CEO, Chairman and director of the Corporation. Their leadership and commitment had been instrumental in building unique alternative investment platforms like land lease resorts and communities, self-storage facilities, marinas and delivering strong financial performance. Wilmington is grateful for their vision and stewardship throughout their tenure and wishes them every success in their future endeavors.
Mr. Andrew Cockwell assumed the role of Chairman and CEO and will help lead Wilmington into an exciting new chapter that ensures the Corporation continues to have a dynamic and successful future.
