Summary

Summary of the 10-Q filed August 6, 2024. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.

Raymond James Financial, Inc. reported fiscal third-quarter 2024 results (quarter ended June 30, 2024) with net revenues of $3.23 billiona, up 11% from the prior-year quarter, and pre-tax income of $644 million, up 33%.

Net income available to common shareholders was $491 millionb and diluted earnings per share were $2.31, compared with $1.71 a year earlier. For the nine months, net revenues were $9.36 billion (up 9%), pre-tax income was $1.88 billion (up 11%), and diluted EPS was $6.85. Growth was driven mainly by higher asset management and related administrative fees, which rose 17% in the quarter on higher fee-based client assets, while combined net interest income and RJBDP fees from third-party banks declined as deposit funding shifted to higher-cost ESP balances.

Bank segment net interest margin fell to 2.64% from 3.26%. The balance sheet remained well capitalized, with the Tier 1 leverage ratio at 12.7% and total capital ratio at 23.6% as of June 30, 2024, and the firm reported $2.1 billionc of cash at the parent. The company repurchased 2.0 million shares for $243 million in the quarter and stated it expects to accelerate repurchases.

Total client assets under administration were $1.48 trilliond, and bank loans, net were $45.1 billion. The filing also discloses a settlement in principle with the SEC's Division of Enforcement over records preservation practices, including a $50 million civil monetary penalty accrued at June 30, 2024, subject to SEC final approval. Management cautioned that future economic deterioration could increase bank loan provisions for credit losses, that short-term interest rate changes affect RJBDP fee and net interest income, and that the expected fourth-quarter outlook includes higher asset management fees and improving investment banking revenues.
