SCHWAB CHARLES CORPSCHW
SCHWAB CHARLES CORP Financial Overview 2021–2025
Updated Jul 10, 2026Charles Schwab attracted $519.4 billion in core net new assets during FY2025, a 42% annual surge that highlights the platform's sustained organic growth. The firm has successfully absorbed its largest competitor and eliminated high-cost temporary funding, cementing its position as a highly profitable asset-gathering machine.
Total client assets expanded from $8.14 trillion in FY2021 to $11.90 trillion in FY2025. Over this timeline, Schwab executed the TD Ameritrade integration—finalizing account conversions in May 2024—and subsequently recalibrated its balance sheet. By FY2025, net interest revenue jumped 28% to $11.8 billion as the company aggressively reduced its reliance on expensive supplemental bank funding. This restored operational efficiency drove net income up 49% year-over-year to $8.9 billion, funding $7.3 billion in shareholder capital returns through stock repurchases and rising dividends.
At the close of FY2025, the stock traded at $99.91, representing a multiple of 21.5x its $4.65 in diluted earnings per share for the year. With the integration behind it, Schwab is now deploying capital to expand its product suite, closing its $660 million acquisition of private market platform Forge Global in March 2026 and preparing to launch retail cryptocurrency trading.
Recent Developments (Q4 2025 and Q1 2026)
In Q1 2026, Schwab generated $6.5 billion in total net revenues, a 16% year-over-year expansion. Growth was driven by a 16% increase in net interest revenue to $3.1 billion and a 15% rise in asset management fees to $1.8 billion. The firm constrained operating expenses to a 5% increase, lifting net income by 30% to $2.5 billion and driving a 38% increase in diluted earnings per share to $1.37.
Schwab restructured its capital stack, eliminating Series I preferred stock, issuing Series L preferred stock, and raising $3.25 billion in senior notes. Operationally, Dennis Howard was appointed Chief Technology, Operations and Data Officer in January 2026. Bulls highlight the firm's operating leverage and a 19% dividend increase to $0.32 per share. Bears caution the stock is richly valued at 29.6x earnings as of May 8, 2026, particularly as total client assets declined sequentially to $11.77 trillion.
What to watch: yields on the newly issued floating-rate debt; trading activity from the 1.3 million new brokerage accounts.

SCHWAB CHARLES CORP 8-K Report, Bylaw Amendment (Jun 1, 2026)
The Charles Schwab Corporation (SCHW) has filed an 8-K report on June 1, 2026, detailing the elimination of its 4.000% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series I. This action, formalized by filing a Certificate of Elimination with the Delaware Secretary of State, effectively removes the terms and provisions related to this specific series of preferred stock from the Company's Fifth Restated Certificate of Incorporation. This move suggests a simplification of the Company's capital structure, potentially reducing complexity and administrative overhead associated with managing different classes of preferred stock.
SCHWAB CHARLES CORP 8-K Report, Shareholder Vote Results (May 22, 2026)
Schwab Charles Corp. (SCHW) has filed an 8-K report detailing the outcomes of its 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The meeting saw all director nominees elected successfully, indicating continued confidence in the board's leadership. Additionally, shareholders ratified the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the company's independent auditor for the fiscal year 2026, a routine but important vote for financial oversight. The advisory vote on executive compensation was also approved, suggesting shareholder alignment with the company's approach to compensating its named executive officers. However, a significant proposal to declassify the Board of Directors, which would have required an 80% supermajority vote of all outstanding common shares, did not achieve the necessary threshold for approval. This outcome means the board will remain classified, with directors serving staggered terms, a structure that provides for continuity but can also limit direct shareholder influence on board composition in the short term. Investors should note this outcome as it pertains to corporate governance.
