Schwab Reports Monthly Activity Highlights

The Charles Schwab Corporation released its Monthly Activity Report today. Company highlights for the month of February 2024 include:

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20240314277581/en/

  • Core net new assets brought to the company by new and existing clients totaled $33.4 billion. Net new assets excluding mutual fund clearing totaled $31.1 billion.
  • Total client assets were $8.88 trillion as of month-end February, up 20% from February 2023 and up 4% versus January 2024.
  • Transactional sweep cash ended February 2024 at $403.2 billion, representing a decrease of $2.9 billion versus the prior month.
  • With the company’s diversified financial model benefiting from rising equity markets and stronger client trading activity to start the year, the company anticipates first quarter sequential revenue growth of approximately 5% to 6% and adjusted(1) pre-tax profit margin expansion of nearly four percentage points versus the fourth quarter as the full impact of the late 2023 incremental cost savings are realized.

(1)

Adjusted pre-tax profit margin is calculated as total net revenues less adjusted total expenses, which exclude acquisition and integration-related costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and restructuring costs, as a percentage of total net revenues. 1Q24 GAAP pre-tax profit margin is currently expected to expand by more than 900 basis points versus 4Q23. This sequential improvement is driven by a combination of business performance and lower expected non-GAAP adjustments during the first quarter of 2024. 4Q23 adjustments totaled $413 million, including $216 million in pre-tax restructuring costs.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements relating to first quarter revenue and adjusted pre-tax profit margin. These forward-looking statements reflect management’s expectations as of the date hereof. Achievement of these expectations is subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the expressed expectations.

Important factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to, client use of the company’s advisory solutions and other products and services; general market conditions, including the level of interest rates and equity valuations; client cash allocation decisions; client sensitivity to rates; level of client assets, including cash balances; competitive pressures on pricing; balance sheet positioning relative to changes in interest rates; interest earning asset mix and growth; the level and mix of client trading activity; market volatility; securities lending; and margin loan balances. Other important factors include the company’s ability to support client activity levels, monetize client assets, and manage expenses; developments in litigation or regulatory matters; and other factors set forth in the company’s most recent report on Form 10-K.
