Perspective from Jim Cracchiolo, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

 

 

Ameriprise delivered another good quarter with contributions across our diversified business.

 

Wealth Management continues to be our primary growth driver with firm-wide assets under management and administration increasing to a new high of $1.4 trillion aided by positive markets. The combination of our businesses and capabilities provides important strength, allowing us to serve clients’ needs well in a dynamic operating environment.

 

Our capital position is a consistent differentiator. Ameriprise generates significant free cash flow that we invest for growth and return to shareholders, including today’s announcement of another increase in our dividend, up 10 percent.”

 

  • First quarter GAAP net income per diluted share was $9.46 compared to $3.79 a year ago, primarily from market impacts on the valuation of derivatives and market risk benefits.

 

  • Adjusted operating net revenues increased 11 percent from organic growth, strong equity markets and higher spread revenues.

 

  • Assets under management and administration reached $1.4 trillion, up 15 percent from strong client net inflows and market appreciation.

 

  • General and administrative expenses remained well managed with a continued focus on enhancing operational efficiency and effectiveness.

 

  • Pretax adjusted operating margin was 26.3 percent and adjusted operating return on equity was 49.0 percent.

 

  • The company returned $650 million of capital to shareholders in the quarter, demonstrating its balance sheet strength and strong free cash flow generation.

 

  • During the quarter, Columbia Threadneedle Investments ranked in the top 10 of Barron's annual ranking of the Best Fund Families.(2)

Advice & Wealth Management pretax adjusted operating earnings and margin were strong at $762 million and 29.8 percent, respectively.

Adjusted operating net revenues increased 13 percent to $2.6 billion from growth in client assets in both wrap and brokerage accounts, increased transactional activity and a 30 percent increase in bank net investment income.

Adjusted operating expenses increased 14 percent to $1.8 billion compared to a year ago. Distribution expenses increased 17 percent. General and administrative expense was $420 million, up 7 percent. The company expects mid-single digit growth in general and administrative expenses for the full year.

The Wealth Management business continued to deliver profitable organic growth. Clients and advisors remained engaged and focused on positioning portfolios to meet financial planning goals through the market cycle.

  • Total client assets grew 19 percent to $954 billion, with wrap assets up 20 percent to $522 billion. In the quarter, total client net flows were $8.5 billion, including wrap flows of $6.5 billion.
  • Transactional activity increased 17 percent with strong growth in structured annuities and brokerage, an initial sign that clients are leveraging the company’s planning model to put money back to work.
  • Cash balances were fairly stable at $43.3 billion, with cash sweep down only $1.0 billion in the quarter reflecting normal seasonal patterns.
  • Total client cash including third-party money market funds and brokered CDs increased $0.9 billion sequentially to $82.4 billion, as clients remain heavily concentrated in yield-oriented products.
  • The advisor network and advisor productivity grew from a year ago. Adjusted operating net revenue per advisor on a trailing 12-month basis was $942,000, up 11 percent from enhanced productivity, business growth and market appreciation, and the company added 64 experienced advisors in the quarter.

NM Not Meaningful - variance equal to or greater than 100%

Asset Management adjusted operating net revenues grew 7 percent to $855 million and pretax adjusted operating earnings increased 25 percent to $206 million. Financial results reflected equity market appreciation and disciplined expense management, which more than offset the cumulative impact of net outflows. Net pretax adjusted operating margin was 35 percent, consistent with the company’s targeted range of 31 to 35 percent.

Adjusted operating expenses increased 2 percent, with general and administrative expenses flat from a year ago. Adjusted for foreign exchange and higher performance fee compensation, general and administrative expense was 3 percent lower than last year reflecting the benefits from comprehensive expense management initiatives taken since 2023.

Total assets under management increased 7 percent to $652 billion as equity market appreciation more than offset net outflows. The underlying fee rate remained stable at 46 basis points.

In the quarter, net outflows were $5.7 billion. Flows included $0.8 billion of outflows related to legacy insurance partners.

  • Retail net outflows were $2.7 billion, consistent with other active managers. Gross sales improved in North America and EMEA year-over-year and sequentially, while redemptions remained stable.
  • Global institutional outflows were $2.2 billion, primarily from a slowdown in the funding of new mandates, as well as redemptions in lower fee mandates and $0.4 billion of outflows from the previously announced proactive portfolio manager actions related to expense management initiatives.

Retirement & Protection Solutions pretax adjusted operating earnings increased 3 percent to $199 million, reflecting the benefit of higher interest rates and equity markets offset by higher distribution expenses associated with strong structured annuity sales levels. These high-quality books of business continued to generate strong free cash flow and return on capital with a differentiated risk profile.

Retirement & Protection Solutions sales increased 33 percent to $1.3 billion primarily from strong sales growth in structured variable annuities similar to the industry. Protection sales grew 8 percent to $65 million with the majority of sales in higher margin accumulation VUL products.

These non-GAAP financial measures are taken into consideration, to varying degrees, for purposes of business planning and analysis and for certain compensation-related matters. Non-GAAP financial measures are intended to supplement investors’ understanding of our performance and should not be considered alternatives for financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. These measures are discussed in more detail below and may not be comparable to other companies’ similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures.

Retail Fund performance rankings for each fund are measured on a consistent basis against the most appropriate peer group or index. Peer groupings of Columbia funds are defined by Lipper category and are based on the Primary Share Class (i.e., Institutional if available, otherwise Advisor or Institutional 3 share class), net of fees. Peer groupings of Threadneedle funds are defined by either IA or Morningstar index and are based on Primary Share Class. Comparisons to Index are measured Gross of Fees.

 

 

 

 

 

To calculate asset weighted performance, the sum of the total assets of the funds with above median ranking are divided by total assets of all funds. Funds with more assets will receive a greater share of the total percentage above or below median.

 

 

 

 

 

Aggregated Asset Allocation Funds may include funds that invest in other Columbia or Threadneedle branded mutual funds included in both equity and fixed income.

 

 

 

 

 

Morningstar as of 03/31/24. Columbia funds are available for purchase by U.S. customers. Out of 89 Columbia funds rated (based on primary share class), 3 received a 5-star Overall Rating and 38 received a 4-star Overall Rating. Out of 145 Threadneedle funds rated (based on highest-rated share class), 22 received a 5-star Overall Rating and 54 received a 4-star Overall Rating. The Overall Morningstar Rating is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its 3-, 5- and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. Not all funds are available in all jurisdictions, to all investors or through all firms.

(1) Adjustments reflect the sum of after-tax net realized investment gains/losses, net of the reinsurance accrual; the market impact on non-traditional long-duration products (including variable and fixed deferred annuity contracts and UL insurance contracts), net of hedges and related reinsurance accrual; mean reversion related impacts; block transfer reinsurance transaction impacts; the market impact of hedges to offset interest rate and currency changes on unrealized gains or losses for certain investments; gain or loss on disposal of a business that is not considered discontinued operations; integration and restructuring charges; income (loss) from discontinued operations; and net income (loss) from consolidated investment entities. After-tax is calculated using the statutory tax rate of 21%.

(2) Adjusted operating return on equity, excluding AOCI is calculated using adjusted operating earnings in the numerator, and Ameriprise Financial shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI and the impact of consolidating investment entities using a five-point average of quarter-end equity in the denominator. After-tax is calculated using the statutory tax rate of 21%.
