Essential Planning, LLC has reported a significant expansion in assets under management (AUM), with the total portfolio value growing by 114.3%, rising from $146.34M to $313.56M during the quarter ending December 31, 2025.

The structure is heavily institutional, with a clear preference for Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), which comprise approximately 81% of the total portfolio value ($254.02M).
