Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Victory Capital (VCTR.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:

The firm's projection for Victory Capital's adjusted earnings per share in FY25 has been raised by 8.2% to $6.05, reflecting improved management fees, though balanced by higher compensation expenses.
