Through Business Leaders’ Open Call to Accelerate Water Action, companies commit to build water resilience across operations and supply chains, accelerate collective positive water impact in at least 100 water-stressed basins by 2030

New York, U.S.A., March 22, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — During the opening day of the UN 2023 Water Conference, over 50 of the world’s largest corporations, operating in over 130 countries and employing 2 million people worldwide, launched the Business Leaders’ Open Call for Accelerating Water Action. The Open Call for Water Action is an unprecedented appeal for private sector action to help solve the global water crisis and advance progress on SDG 6 to ensure access to water and sanitation for all. The Open Call provides a unified commitment by the corporate sector to the Water Action Agenda, the main outcome of the historic UN Water Conference.

By joining the Open Call for Water Action, companies commit to work to build water resilience across their own global operations and supply chains. They also pledge to work collaboratively across sectors to achieve collective positive water impact in at least 100 prioritized water-stressed basins by 2030. The strategy aims to contribute to water security for 3 billion people, and help enable safe drinking water and sanitation for more than 300 million people.

“We need concerted, collective action to ensure that there will be enough water for everyone in the very near future,” said Sanda Ojiambo, Executive Director and CEO of the United Nations Global Compact. “Companies are the world’s largest water users and have a vested interest in ensuring that water resources are managed responsibly, fairly and sustainably. We hope this Open Call will mobilize the action we need to ensure the private sector becomes a good custodian of water resources.”

Water insecurity is one of the most pressing sustainability challenges of the 21st century, presenting humanitarian, environmental, and economic concerns. More than 2 billion people lack safe drinking water; a 40 percent water deficit is projected by 2030; and water-protecting ecosystems have experienced rapid destruction. Climate change continues to significantly intensify these risks, adding further urgency to act. CDP estimates that some $300 billion of business value is at risk due to water scarcity, pollution, and climate change.

“The Open Call is mobilizing the corporate sector on water in a pivotal new way–through radical collaboration,” said Jason Morrison, President of the Pacific Institute and Head of the CEO Water Mandate. “By bringing together leading companies to act inwardly in their own operations and supply chains and outwardly by joining hands in collective action in basins around the world, the Open Call can catalyze more water action than companies can achieve on their own.”

Companies today announcing their commitment to the Business Leaders’ Open Call to Accelerate Action on Water include: AB InBev, ADM, ANDESS, AQUADAT, Arca Continental, AstraZeneca, Banka BioLoo Limited, Bayer, BIOAZUL SL, Braskem, Cargill, Coca-Cola Europacific Partners, Coca-Cola FEMSA, Colgate-Palmolive, Cristalina Saneamento, Crown Holdings, Inc., Cummins Inc., Danone, Diageo, DOW, DP World, DuPont, Ecolab, Elevate Textiles, Inc., ENGIE, FLSmidth, Gap Inc., Givaudan, GSK, HCL Technologies Limited, HEINEKEN N.V., Inditex, S.A., Inter IKEA Group, Johnson Matthey, Kelani Valley Plantations PLC, Kemira Oyj, KLT Filtration Ltd., Mahindra Group, MGM Resorts International, Microsoft, Nazava Water Filters, Netafim, Orbia, Penta Falcon, PJSC PhosAgro, Recogida General De Residuos y Aguas S.L, Reckitt, Solenis LLC, Starbucks, The Coca-Cola Company, The Crescent Textile Mills Limited, Veolia, VIATRIS, and Xylem.

“Water is critical to business and life—and yet two billion people around the world are currently living in water-stressed areas,” said Christophe Beck, Chairman and CEO of Ecolab. “Businesses must accelerate action to help address the global water crisis. We have all the solutions we need to produce business growth and protect human lives. I call on my peers in the private sector to join us in this ambitious movement to build a water-resilient future.”

Dolf van den Brink, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Executive Board at Heineken N.V., said: “Our water strategy focuses on water efficiency, circularity and watershed health protection, especially in water-stressed areas. Over the last decade, we have learned that collective action is a critical enabler to create more systemic change, as we have seen in Indonesia and Mexico where we operate. The Open Call will empower organisations to mobilise behind common water basins to drive collective action at scale and create a water resilient future for all.”

The Open Call for Water Action is led by the CEO Water Mandate, a partnership between the UN Global Compact and the Pacific Institute to advance corporate water stewardship around the world. It is also championed by the Water Resilience Coalition, a CEO-led initiative of the CEO Water Mandate that aims to elevate water action to the top of corporate agendas. The Open Call is also supported by the International Chamber of Commerce, Ceres, the Alliance for Water Stewardship, and AquaFed.

The Open Call is part of the broader 2030 strategy of the Water Resilience Coalition. The Water Resilience Coalition Investment Portfolio, launched on 16 March 2023, is an example of one initiative companies can participate in as part of the Open Call. This innovative investment platform has identified an investment pipeline of at least US$1 billion in capital market investment instruments to accelerate action on water resilience and SDG 6.

Five member companies of the Water Resilience Coalition and the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) last week announced $139 million of investments in the Portfolio’s first fund. The fund will focus on supporting water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) initiatives to impact 5 million people in 8 countries.

TORONTO, March 22, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —

• Reported quarterly diluted earnings per share of $0.26
• Positive mutual fund net sales of $221 million for the quarter
• Increased quarterly dividend to $0.11 per share

AGF Management Limited (AGF or the Company) (TSX: AGF.B) today announced financial results for the first quarter ended February 28, 2023.

AGF reported total assets under management and fee-earning assets¹ of $41.9 billion compared to $41.8 billion as at November 30, 2022 and $42.0 billion as at February 28, 2022. Year-over-year, the slight AUM decline was driven by market volatility, offset by positive net sales.

“During a time of market uncertainty, we remain focused on providing our clients with consistency when it comes to our performance, our investment approach and our client interactions,” said Kevin McCreadie, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer, AGF. “We are well-positioned with a robust platform of global strategies across multiple vehicles and asset classes designed to meet the ever-evolving needs of our clients.”

AGF’s mutual fund gross sales were $982 million for the quarter compared to $989 million in the comparative period. Mutual fund net sales were $221 million compared to $330 million in the comparative period, marking the 10^th consecutive quarter of positive net sales. AGF’s sales have continued to outpace the industry. During the quarter, the industry² reported net redemptions, while AGF mutual funds remained in net sales.

“Given AGF’s solid performance this quarter, we continued to experience strong flows and positive net sales, while leveraging our partnerships,” said Judy Goldring, President and Head of Global Distribution, AGF. “We are seeing success with our sales strategy as we focus on the IIROC channel in Canada and gain momentum through our turnkey asset management programs in the U.S.”

“We take a thoughtful approach to expense management,” added McCreadie. “However, our strong investment performance and continued execution against our sales strategy will have an initial short-term impact on our profitability driven by an increase in success-based expenses.”

1	Fee-earning assets represents assets in which AGF has carried interest ownership and earns recurring fees but does not have ownership interest in the managers.
2	Total long-term mutual funds in the Canadian mutual funds industry per Investment Funds Institute of Canada (IFIC).

Key Business Highlights:

• AGF announced a 10% increase to its first quarter dividend to $0.11 per share payable on April 21, 2023 to shareholders on record as at April 11, 2023.
• As at February 28, 2023, AGF’s investment performance outperformed its one- and three-year targets (50% and 40% respectively, with 1st percentile being best possible performance) with an average one-year percentile of 36%, up from 56% in 2022, and an average three-year percentile of 33%, up from 46% in 2022.
• The firm’s investment performance spans across a broad range of categories and styles, where 70% and 75% of its strategies outperformed their peers on a 1- and 3-year basis, respectively, based on gross returns (before fees) within the same category.
• Over 60% of AGF’s Series F funds available in Canada managed by AGF Investments Inc. have a 4 or 5-star Overall Morningstar Rating across all asset classes as of February 28, 2023.*
• AGF Investments Inc. was recognized with FundGrade A+® Awards for AGF American Growth Class, AGF Fixed Income Plus Fund, AGF Global Convertible Bond Fund and AGF Global Select Fund.**
• In January, the firm announced new ETF and mutual fund names unified under the AGF brand in order to better reflect the continued integration of AGF’s quantitative and fundamental investing teams.
• W. Robert (Bob) Farquharson has retired from the AGF Board of Directors and has been named Vice-Chairman Emeritus in recognition of his long and successful career at AGF. He first joined AGF in 1963 as an analyst and over a period of 60 years, managed a number of AGF funds and served the company in senior executive and director roles.

Financial Highlights:

• Total net revenue, was $80.1 million for the three months ended February 28, 2023, compared to $81.7 million for the three months ended November 30, 2022, and $89.3 million for the comparative prior year period. The decline was influenced by lower income on Private Capital long-term investments, which can be variable quarter to quarter and impacted by the timing of monetizations and cash distributions.
• Selling, general and administrative costs were $53.0 million for the three months ended February 28, 2023, compared to $49.3 million in 2022. The increase in SG&A was influenced by the continued improvement in investment performance and a 39% increase in the AGF.B share price.
• EBITDA before commissions for the three months ended February 28, 2023 was $27.1 million, compared to $40.0 million in the prior year comparative period.
• Net income for the three months ended February 28, 2023 was $17.6 million ($0.26 diluted EPS), compared to $12.9 million ($0.18 diluted EPS) in the prior year comparative period.

FundGrade A+® is used with permission from Fundata Canada Inc., all rights reserved. The annual FundGrade A+® Awards are presented by Fundata Canada Inc. to recognize the “best of the best” among Canadian investment funds. The FundGrade A+® calculation is supplemental to the monthly FundGrade ratings and is calculated at the end of each calendar year. The FundGrade rating system evaluates funds based on their risk-adjusted performance, measured by Sharpe Ratio, Sortino Ratio, and Information Ratio. The score for each ratio is calculated individually, covering all time periods from 2 to 10 years. The scores are then weighted equally in calculating a monthly FundGrade. The top 10% of funds earn an A Grade; the next 20% of funds earn a B Grade; the next 40% of funds earn a C Grade; the next 20% of funds receive a D Grade; and the lowest 10% of funds receive an E Grade. To be eligible, a fund must have received a FundGrade rating every month in the previous year. The FundGrade A+® uses a GPA-style calculation, where each monthly FundGrade from “A” to “E” receives a score from 4 to 0, respectively. A fund’s average score for the year determines its GPA. Any fund with a GPA of 3.5 or greater is awarded a FundGrade A+® Award. For more information, see https://www.FundGradeAwards.com.
