Domestic Private Client Group net new assets(1) of $21.6 billion for the fiscal first quarter, annualized growth from beginning of period assets of 7.8%
Quarterly net revenues of $3.01 billion, up 8% over the prior year’s fiscal first quarter and down 1% compared to the preceding quarter

Total clients’ domestic cash sweep and Enhanced Savings Program (“ESP”) balances of $58.0 billion, down 4% compared to December 2022 and up 3% over September 2023

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla – Raymond James Financial, Inc. (NYSE: RJF) today reported net revenues of $3.01 billion and net income available to common shareholders of $497 million, or $2.32 per diluted share, for the fiscal first quarter ended December 31, 2023. Excluding $23 million of expenses related to acquisitions, quarterly adjusted net income available to common shareholders was record $514 million(2), or $2.40 per diluted share(2).

Quarterly net revenues increased 8% over the prior year’s fiscal first quarter primarily driven by higher asset management and related administrative fees. Despite higher revenues, quarterly net income available to common shareholders declined 2% compared to the prior-year quarter largely due to the receipt of a $32 million insurance settlement in the year-ago period. Sequentially, quarterly net revenues decreased 1% primarily due to lower asset management and related administrative fees and investment banking revenues which were partially offset by higher brokerage revenues. Quarterly net income available to common shareholders increased 15% over the preceding quarter mainly resulting from lower legal and regulatory reserves and a lower bank loan loss provision for credit losses. Annualized return on common equity was 19.1% and annualized adjusted return on tangible common equity was 23.8%(2).

“High satisfaction between clients and advisors, along with solid financial advisor retention and recruiting in the Private Client Group segment drove record quarterly earnings per share and strong net new asset(1) annualized growth of 7.8% in the quarter,” said Chair and CEO Paul Reilly. “We are well positioned entering the fiscal second quarter with record client assets and robust financial advisor recruiting activity.”

Segment Results
Private Client Group

Domestic Private Client Group net new assets(1) of $21.6 billion for the fiscal first quarter, annualized growth from beginning of period assets of 7.8%
Quarterly net revenues of $2.23 billion, up 8% over the prior year’s fiscal first quarter and down 2% compared to the preceding quarter
Quarterly pre-tax income of $439 million, up 1% over the prior year’s fiscal first quarter and down 8% compared to the preceding quarter
Record Private Client Group assets under administration of $1.31 trillion and record Private Client Group assets in fee-based accounts of $746.6 billion, both up 18% over December 2022 and 9% over September 2023
Total clients’ domestic cash sweep and ESP balances of $58.0 billion, down 4% compared to December 2022 and up 3% over September 2023

Year-over-year, quarterly net revenues and pre-tax income grew 8% and 1%, respectively, predominantly driven by higher asset management and related administrative fees, reflecting growth of assets in fee-based accounts during the year. Sequentially, quarterly net revenues declined 2% primarily resulting from lower asset management and related administrative fees due to lower balances at the beginning of the current quarter compared to the preceding quarter.

Total clients’ domestic cash sweep and ESP balances of $58 billion increased 3% over September 2023, driven by higher ESP and cash sweep balances. The average yield on Raymond James Bank Deposit Program third-party bank balances increased 6 basis points over the preceding quarter to 3.66% in the fiscal first quarter.

“Advisor recruiting and retention started the fiscal year off strong with domestic Private Client Group net new asset(1) annualized growth of 7.8% in the quarter,” said Reilly. “Our robust technology capabilities, client-first values and our long-established multiple affiliation model continue to fuel the strength and quality of the recruiting pipeline.”

Capital Markets

Quarterly net revenues of $338 million, up 15% over the prior year’s fiscal first quarter and down 1% compared to the preceding quarter
Quarterly pre-tax income of $3 million
Quarterly investment banking revenues of $170 million, up 28% over the prior year’s fiscal first quarter and down 12% compared to the preceding quarter

Quarterly net revenues grew 15% over the prior-year quarter primarily the result of higher investment banking revenues. Sequentially, quarterly net revenues declined 1% driven by lower M&A and advisory revenues and affordable housing investments business revenues, largely offset by higher fixed income brokerage revenues.

“Fixed income brokerage revenues experienced strong quarterly growth due to higher client activity as well as a more favorable trading environment,” said Reilly. “Investment banking activity industry-wide appears to be on a gradual recovery and our pipeline and new business activity remain healthy.”

Asset Management

Quarterly net revenues of $235 million, up 14% over the prior year’s fiscal first quarter and flat compared to the preceding quarter
Quarterly pre-tax income of $93 million, up 16% over the prior year’s fiscal first quarter and down 7% compared to the preceding quarter
Record financial assets under management of $215 billion, up 16% over December 2022 and 9% over September 2023

The increase in quarterly net revenues and pre-tax income over the prior year’s fiscal first quarter was largely attributable to higher financial assets under management due to higher equity markets and net inflows into fee-based accounts in the Private Client Group.

Bank

Quarterly net revenues of $441 million, down 13% compared to the prior year’s fiscal first quarter and 2% compared to the preceding quarter
Quarterly pre-tax income of $92 million, down 32% compared to the prior year’s fiscal first quarter and up 18% over the preceding quarter
Bank segment net interest margin (“NIM”) of 2.74% for the quarter, down 62 basis points compared to the prior year’s fiscal first quarter and 13 basis points compared to the preceding quarter
Record net loans of $44.2 billion, up slightly over December 2022 and 1% over September 2023

Quarterly net revenues declined 13% year-over-year and 2% sequentially due to lower NIM. The Bank segment’s NIM decreased 13 basis points during the quarter to 2.74%, largely the result of increased interest expense from higher-cost funding as ESP balances replaced a portion of lower-cost Raymond James Bank Deposit Program client cash sweep balances, which were swept to third-party banks. Quarterly results include an FDIC special assessment of $9 million.

The credit quality of the loan portfolio is solid, with criticized loans as a percent of total loans held for investment ending the quarter at 1.09%. Bank loan allowance for credit losses as a percent of total loans held for investment was 1.08%, and bank loan allowance for credit losses on corporate loans as a percent of corporate loans held for investment was 2.06%.

Other

Other segment pre-tax income increased sequentially primarily due to a large provision for litigation and regulatory matters in the preceding quarter. The effective tax rate for the quarter was 21.0%, reflecting a tax benefit recognized for share-based compensation that vested during the period.

In November, the Board of Directors increased the quarterly cash dividend on common shares 7% to $0.45 per share and authorized common stock repurchases of up to $1.5 billion, replacing the previous authorization. During the fiscal first quarter, the firm repurchased 1.41 million shares of common stock for $150 million at an average price of $107 per share. As of January 24, 2024, approximately $1.39 billion remained available under the Board’s approved common stock repurchase authorization. At the end of the quarter, the total capital ratio was 23.0%(3) and the tier 1 leverage ratio was 12.1%(3), both well above regulatory requirements.

RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC.Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Fiscal First Quarter of 2024
(Unaudited)

Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures

We utilize certain non-GAAP financial measures as additional measures to aid in, and enhance, the understanding of our financial results and related measures. These non-GAAP financial measures have been separately identified in this document. We believe certain of these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors by excluding certain material items that may not be indicative of our core operating results. We utilize these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the financial performance of the business, as they facilitate a comparison of current- and prior-period results. We believe that return on tangible common equity and tangible book value per share are meaningful to investors as they facilitate comparisons of our results to the results of other companies. In the following tables, the tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments reflects the statutory rate associated with each non-GAAP item. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures of other companies. The following tables provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

Domestic Private Client Group net new assets represents domestic Private Client Group client inflows, including dividends and interest, less domestic Private Client Group client outflows, including commissions, advisory fees, and other fees. The Domestic Private Client Group net new asset growth — annualized percentage is based on the beginning Domestic Private Client Group assets under administration balance for the indicated period.
(2)These are non-GAAP financial measures. See the schedules on the previous pages for a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures and for more information on these measures.

Earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders (less allocation of earnings and dividends to participating securities) by weighted-average common shares outstanding (basic or diluted as applicable) for each respective period or, in the case of adjusted earnings per common share, computed by dividing adjusted net income available to common shareholders (less allocation of earnings and dividends to participating securities) by weighted-average common shares outstanding (basic or diluted as applicable) for each respective period. The allocations of earnings and dividends to participating securities were $1 million for each of the three months ended December 31, 2023, December 31, 2022, and September 30, 2023.
(5)Return on common equity is computed by dividing annualized net income available to common shareholders by average common equity for each respective period or, in the case of return on tangible common equity, computed by dividing annualized net income available to common shareholders by average tangible common equity for each respective period. Adjusted return on common equity is computed by dividing annualized adjusted net income available to common shareholders by adjusted average common equity for each respective period, or in the case of adjusted return on tangible common equity, computed by dividing annualized adjusted net income available to common shareholders by adjusted average tangible common equity for each respective period. Tangible common equity is defined as total common equity attributable to Raymond James Financial, Inc. less goodwill and intangible assets, net of related deferred taxes.
(6)Pre-tax margin is computed by dividing pre-tax income by net revenues for each respective period or, in the case of adjusted pre-tax margin, computed by dividing adjusted pre-tax income by net revenues for each respective period.
(7)Total compensation ratio is computed by dividing compensation, commissions and benefits expense by net revenues for each respective period or, in the case of adjusted total compensation ratio, computed by dividing adjusted compensation, commissions and benefits expense by net revenues for each respective period.
(8)
The three months ended December 31, 2022 included the favorable impact of a $32 million insurance settlement received during the period related to a previously settled legal matter. This item has been reflected as an offset to Other expenses within our Other segment. In the computation of our non-GAAP financial measures, we have reversed the favorable impact of this item on adjusted pre-tax income and adjusted net income available to common shareholders. See the schedules on the previous pages for a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures and for more information on these measures.
(9)Book value per share is computed by dividing total common equity attributable to Raymond James Financial, Inc. by the number of common shares outstanding at the end of each respective period or, in the case of tangible book value per share, computed by dividing tangible common equity by the number of common shares outstanding at the end of each respective period.
(10)
We earn fees from RJBDP, a multi-bank sweep program in which clients’ cash deposits in their brokerage accounts are swept into interest-bearing deposit accounts at Raymond James Bank and TriState Capital Bank, which are included in our Bank segment, as well as various third-party banks. RJBDP balances swept to our Bank segment are reflected in Bank deposits on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition and within money market and other savings accounts in our net interest disclosures in this release. Fees earned by the Private Client Group segment on deposits held by our Bank segment are eliminated in consolidation.
(11)
In March 2023, we launched our Enhanced Savings Program, in which Private Client Group clients may deposit cash in a high-yield Raymond James Bank account. These balances are reflected in Bank deposits on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition and substantially all are reflected within interest-bearing demand deposits in our net interest disclosures in this release.
(12)Average yield on RJBDP - third-party banks is computed by dividing annualized RJBDP fees - third-party banks, which are net of the interest expense paid to clients by the third-party banks, by the average daily RJBDP balances at third-party banks.
(13)Loans are presented net of unamortized purchase discounts or premiums, unearned income, deferred origination fees and costs, and charge-offs.
(14)Securities-based loans included loans collateralized by the borrower’s marketable securities at advance rates consistent with industry standards and, to a lesser extent, the cash surrender value of life insurance policies. An insignificant portion of our securities-based loans portfolio is collateralized by private securities or other financial instruments with a limited trading market.
(15)The average rate on tax-exempt loans is presented on a taxable-equivalent basis utilizing the applicable federal statutory rates for each respective period.
(16)
The average balance, interest expense, and average rate for “Total bank deposits” included amounts associated with affiliate deposits. Such amounts are eliminated in consolidation and are offset in “All other interest-bearing liabilities” under “All other segments.”
(17)
The Other segment includes interest income on certain corporate cash balances, the results of our private equity investments, which predominantly consist of investments in third-party funds, certain other corporate investing activity, and certain corporate overhead costs of RJF that are not allocated to other segments including the interest costs on our public debt, certain provisions for legal and regulatory matters, and certain acquisition-related expenses.
(18)Corporate loans included commercial and industrial loans, commercial real estate loans, and real estate investment trust loans.

Includes acquisition-related compensation expenses primarily arising from equity and cash-based retention awards issued in conjunction with acquisitions in prior years. Such retention awards are generally contingent upon the post-closing continuation of service of certain associates who joined the firm as part of such acquisitions and are expensed over the requisite service period.
(20)Amortization of identifiable intangible assets, which was included in “Other” expense, includes amortization of identifiable intangible assets arising from our acquisitions.
(21)Average common equity is computed by adding the total common equity attributable to Raymond James Financial, Inc. as of the date indicated to the prior quarter-end total, and dividing by two, or in the case of average tangible common equity, computed by adding tangible common equity as of the date indicated to the prior quarter-end total, and dividing by two. Adjusted average common equity is computed by adjusting for the impact on average common equity of the non-GAAP adjustments, as applicable for each respective period. Adjusted average tangible common equity is computed by adjusting for the impact on average tangible common equity of the non-GAAP adjustments, as applicable for each respective period.
