Great Elm Group (GEG) is expected to drive future revenue growth over the next 2-3 years through several key initiatives across its alternative asset management and real estate platforms:

1. Growth in Assets Under Management (AUM) and Fee-Paying AUM (FPAUM) within its Credit Platform: Great Elm Capital Corp. (GECC), a business development company managed by Great Elm Group, has been actively raising new capital through equity and debt issuances. This expansion of GECC's capital base directly increases GEG's fee-paying assets under management, leading to higher recurring management fees. For example, GECC raised approximately $76.6 million of new capital during fiscal year 2025.
2. Expansion and Performance of the Real Estate Platform, particularly Monomoy Construction Services (MCS) and Monomoy Build-to-Suit (BTS): The launch of Monomoy Construction Services (MCS) in fiscal 2025 created a new revenue stream, which the company anticipates will double its revenue in fiscal 2026. Revenue from build-to-suit property sales, such as the initial property sale that generated over $6 million in revenue in fiscal 2024, is also a significant contributor.
3. Increased Incentive Fees and Investment Income from Great Elm Capital Corp. (GECC): GECC's strong investment performance and record total investment income contribute directly to Great Elm Group's incentive fee revenue. For instance, incentive fees collected by Great Elm increased by 52% to approximately $4.1 million in fiscal 2025 due to GECC's performance.
4. Strategic Partnerships and Capital Raises: Great Elm Group has actively pursued strategic partnerships and capital raises to accelerate growth across its platforms. A transformational partnership with Kennedy Lewis Investment Management in July 2025 is expected to drive continued growth in its credit and real estate products. The company also completed over $100 million of capital raises across its credit and real estate platforms in July and August, positioning it for future growth.
5. Leveraging Balance Sheet for High-Value Investment Opportunities: The company emphasizes its ability to leverage its balance sheet and strategic relationships to source unique, high-value investment opportunities, as evidenced by strong returns from CoreWeave-related investments in fiscal 2025. This strategy allows GEG to generate additional income beyond its core fee-based services.
