Partners Group stock fell 2.82 percent to CHF 606.80 on SIX on September 24, 2026, keeping the Swiss asset manager close to its recent trading lows. The move follows first-half results that combined record fundraising with weaker performance-related income.

Fundraising reached USD 16 billion

Partners Group raised USD 16 billion in the first half of 2026, an increase of 31 percent from the prior-year period. The capital inflow lifted assets under management by 7 percent to USD 186 billion as of June 30, 2026, according to Financial Times.

The operating mix explains the market pressure. Management income increased to CHF 905 million, up 6 percent in reported currency and 12 percent in constant currency, while performance income weakened because exits were delayed.

Revenue declined 7 percent

Total revenue reached CHF 1,121 million in H1 2026, down 7 percent year over year. EBITDA was CHF 706 million, and the EBITDA margin held at 63 percent, showing that the core management-fee business remained more stable than the performance-fee line, as reported by MarketScreener.

Net profit came in at CHF 502 million, compared with CHF 578 million in H1 2025, a decline of 13 percent on a reported basis. The comparison matters because fundraising expanded while earnings remained exposed to the timing of portfolio exits and performance fees.

Guidance points to more fundraising

Partners Group expects total new client assets of USD 26 billion to USD 32 billion for full-year 2026, according to the company announcement published on September 1, 2026. Its shareholder page confirms the SIX Swiss Exchange listing and identifies the H1 2026 interim report as the latest interim reporting package.

The contrast is clear: capital gathering is accelerating, but revenue and profit are moving in the opposite direction. For investors, the next earnings comparison will show whether higher assets under management can offset slower performance income.

Stock trades at CHF 606.80

Partners Group stock stood at CHF 606.80 on SIX on September 24, 2026, down 2.82 percent for the session. The price decline gives the H1 mix of 31 percent fundraising growth and 13 percent reported profit contraction immediate market relevance.
