From Franklin Resources's 10-K and 10-Q filings with the SEC; its fiscal year ends in September. Each period shows the latest figure the company has reported for it, including restatements. Net margin is our own calculation from those reported figures (net income ÷ revenue); it is left blank where revenue is zero or missing. † Quarter derived from the company's year-to-date or full-year totals.

Franklin Resources vs the Financials sector and the S&P 500
Franklin Resources's latest reported figures next to the median of the other 75 S&P 500 Financials companies and of the other 502 S&P 500 companies; each median is taken over the companies with a comparable figure (counts in the footnote). A median is the middle value, not an average, so one very large company does not move it.
| Measure | Franklin Resources | Financials (75 other S&P 500 companies) | S&P 500 (502 other companies) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue growth, latest fiscal year | +3.5% | +7.2% | +7.0% |
| Net margin, latest fiscal year | 6.0% | 19.4% | 13.0% |
| Dividend per share, latest fiscal year | $1.28 | $2.38 | $2.40 |
| Share price change, 1 year | +35.6% | +5.0% | +5.6% |
Franklin Resources: fiscal year ended September 2025, from its 10-K and 10-Q filings with the SEC. Medians computed October 20, 2026 from each company's latest annual filing (fiscal years ending between July 2025 and September 2026) and our price archive. Prices for every company, Franklin Resources included, are the last regular-session prices of October 19, 2026; the 1-year change compares that price with each company's last close on or before October 20, 2025. Net margin and price change are our calculations from reported figures. Each median counts only the companies with a comparable figure (sector / S&P 500): revenue growth 75/496, net margin 75/496, dividend per share 61/349, 1-year price change 75/490; the reasons below can overlap. 12 are left out of the price figure because our archive holds no comparable close for them; dividend medians are among the 61 sector and 349 S&P 500 companies reporting a per-share dividend. The S&P 500 price figure is the middle company's change, not the index's return.
