11 INTEGRITY | RELIABILITY | RESULTS Reconciliation of Income Attributable to Westwood Holdings Group, Inc. to Economic Earnings We are providing a performance measure that we refer to as Economic Earnings. Both our management and Board of Directors review Economic Earnings to evaluate our ongoing performance, allocate resources and determine our dividend policy. We also believe that this performance measure is useful for management and investors when evaluating our underlying operating and financial performance and our available resources. We do not advocate that investors consider these non-GAAP measures without also considering financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. We define Economic Earnings as income attributable to Westwood Holdings Group, Inc. plus non-cash equity-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets and deferred taxes related to goodwill. Although depreciation on fixed assets is a non-cash expense, we do not add it back when calculating Economic Earnings because depreciation charges represent an allocation of the decline in the value of the related assets that will ultimately require replacement. In addition, we do not adjust Economic Earnings for tax deductions related to restricted stock expense or amortization of intangible assets. The following table provides a reconciliation of net loss to Economic Earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2026 ($ thousands): June 30, 2026 Income attributable to Westwood Holdings Group, Inc. 1,519 Stock-based compensation expense 1,291 Intangible amortization 646 Tax benefit from goodwill amortization 136 Tax impact of adjustments to GAAP income (624) Economic Earnings 2,968
