Note: All per-share results are rounded to the nearest cent, based on weighted-average diluted common shares outstanding. Effective January 1, 2017, a new accounting standard prospectively changes the treatment of a portion of the tax deductions relating to equity compensation. These deductions were previously reflected in additional paid-in capital, a component of stockholders’ equity, and are now included in taxes on income, a component of net income. The company’s tax expense for the second quarter and first half of 2017 decreased by approximately $5 million and $36 million, respectively, as a result of this change. Future effects will depend on the company’s share price, restricted stock vesting, and the volume of equity incentive options exercised. | ||||||||||||||||||||
CEO Walt Bettinger said, “Strong client engagement and demand for our contemporary approach to wealth management have led to business momentum that ranks among the most powerful in Schwab’s history. Equity markets touched all-time highs during the second quarter, volatility remained largely contained, short-term interest rates rose further, and clients benefited from the full extent of the strategic pricing moves we announced in February. Against this backdrop, clients opened more than 350,000 new brokerage accounts during the second quarter, bringing year-to-date new accounts to 719,000 – up 34% from a year ago and our strongest first half total in seventeen years. In addition, households new to Schwab as part of our Retail business rose by 50% versus the first half of 2016. We gathered $46.2 billion of core net new assets during the second quarter, a record for the period and the second-highest quarter ever. Our year-to-date core net new assets of $85.1 billion represent the strongest first half in the company’s history and a 6% organic growth rate. Retail gathered record levels of core net new assets in the first six months of 2017, posting a 69% increase over the year-earlier period. Concurrently, Advisor Services attracted near-record core inflows and achieved a 77% year-over-year increase. Our impressive results were helped by an 86% year-over-year lift in net transfers of client assets from our competitors for the first half of 2017, demonstrating our ability to win in the marketplace. Total client assets reached a record $3.04 trillion at month-end June, up 16% year-over-year. We ended June serving 10.5 million active brokerage accounts, 1.1 million banking accounts, and 1.5 million retirement plan participants.”
Mr. Bettinger continued, “We believe that following our ‘Through Clients’ Eyes’ strategy means bringing investors the capabilities they expect to help build their financial futures, and we’ve continued to see more clients turn to us for help in setting and tracking long-term goals. Our financial consultants held planning conversations with approximately 73,000 clients in the first six months of 2017, up 9% year-over-year. Client balances receiving ongoing advisory services rose 17% year-over-year, faster than overall client asset growth. These advised balances totaled a record $1.54 trillion at quarter-end, with $1.30 trillion under the guidance of a registered investment advisor and $242 billion enrolled in one of our retail or other advisory solutions.”
Mr. Bettinger added, “We recently placed in the top 20 for Barron’s 2017 rankings of The Most Respected American Companies. This is certainly important recognition, yet the ultimate measure of our success is whether clients and prospects entrust us with their business. Our second quarter performance gives us great optimism for the future, as we continue to execute against our goal of helping clients invest through a ‘no trade-offs’ combination of value, service, transparency, and trust.”
CFO Peter Crawford commented, “Our financial model, with multiple revenue streams, operating leverage, and an all-weather balance sheet, produced outstanding second quarter results, with records for revenue and pre-tax profit margin. Net interest revenue rose to a record $1.1 billion, up 32% from last year’s second quarter, driven by higher short-term rates reflecting the Federal Reserve’s March and June 2017 hikes. We achieved these results even as the longer end of the yield curve softened and growth in interest-earning assets slowed due to clients engaging further with the markets and investing more of their cash. Asset management and administration fees grew 12% year-over-year to a record $845 million, reflecting further improvement in net money fund revenue from rising rates and growing balances in advised solutions, equity and bond funds, and ETFs. By quarter-end, the yields on all proprietary money market fund portfolios were at or above their respective operating expense ratios, fully eliminating money fund fee waivers for the first time since the financial crisis. Trading revenue declined 22% to $157 million as the full effect of our February commission reductions took hold, partially offset by stronger client activity. Overall, our growing success with clients, the Fed’s rate actions, and improving equity market valuations helped us end the second quarter a bit ahead of our 2017 baseline scenario, with total revenue up 17% year-over-year to $2.1 billion.”
“On the expense front, our 10% year-over-year increase for the second quarter was consistent with serving an expanding client base, higher incentive accruals relating to strong client metrics, and our planned pace of investment in growth initiatives,” Mr. Crawford said. “The resulting 630 basis point gap between revenue and expense growth yielded a 42.7% pre-tax profit margin and once again demonstrated our ability to successfully balance near-term profitability with reinvestment to drive long-term growth.”
Mr. Crawford concluded, “We remain focused on managing the company’s balance sheet to support investment initiatives and further our strategy of optimizing the spread earned on client cash sweep balances. With sweep balances impacted by minimal year-to-date bulk transfers and reduced client cash levels, our consolidated assets totaled $221 billion as of June 30th. This contributed to a preliminary 7.4% Tier 1 Leverage ratio at quarter-end, somewhat above our long-term operating objective of 6.75-7%. We delivered a 15% return on equity for the second quarter, capping our strongest first half ROE in 8 years.”
