More than 60 years after taking a controlling interest in Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.B), former CEO Warren Buffett stepped away from his role with the firm he turned into a multinational conglomerate on the final day of 2025.
On Saturday, Feb. 28, the holding company reported full-year and Q4 2025 earnings, marking the final fiscal year and quarter with the Oracle of Omaha at the helm. And although it was new Berkshire CEO Greg Abel who penned his first annual letter to shareholders, the results the company announced over the weekend were the last to bear the fingerprints of his predecessor and mentor.
