They do, but you said "still on course for two billion in assets in 2025" - which they didn't say, so either it's your opinion that they are on track or someone else's. I was wondering which?
In fact, the BoD's update on progress was "a small advance". Now if you ask me, I think either a) they won't hit the goal in time, and will manage that message later, or b) they'll use their strategy of acquisitions to make sudden, large advances to hit the goal. Certainly, organic growth won't be enough IMHO. I expect them to up their game in 2024 to be able to hit 2bn. The foundations seem to be there, so why not?
Interestingly, the YE2022 report says "Our stated goal (which we refer to as our 2B plan) is to be managing over $2bn of assets under management (AUM) by 2025" - which means hitting the goal before 2025 starts if you ask me. But if they achieved it in 2025 I'd let them off that linguistic ambiguity! :-)
