Summary
Summary of the 10-Q filed May 2, 2024. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.
State Street Corporation reported mixed financial results for the first quarter of 2024.
Total revenue saw a slight increase of 1% year-over-year, driven by a 4% rise in fee revenue, which was partially offset by a 7% decline in net interest income. The decrease in net interest income was primarily attributed to a shift in deposit mix towards interest-bearing deposits and lower average non-interest-bearing deposit balances, despite higher average interest rates. Total expenses increased by 6%, significantly impacted by a $130 milliona increase in the FDIC special assessment, which alone contributed approximately 5 percentage points to the expense growth.
Excluding this assessment, expense growth was more moderate, driven by business investments largely offset by productivity savings. Diluted earnings per share decreased by 10% to $1.37b, primarily due to the FDIC assessment's impact. The company continued its capital return program, increasing dividends per share by 10% and repurchasing $100 million in common stock.

Frequently Asked Questions
What drove the change in State Street's revenue this quarter?
State Street's total revenue increased slightly by 1% year-over-year. This was primarily driven by a 4% increase in fee revenue, boosted by strong growth in management fees (up 12%) and software and processing fees (up 25%). However, this growth was partially offset by a 7% decrease in net interest income, which was mainly due to a shift in customer deposit mix towards interest-bearing accounts and a decrease in non-interest-bearing deposits, despite higher overall interest rates.
What was the impact of the FDIC special assessment on State Street's results?
State Street recognized a $130 million increase to the FDIC special assessment in the first quarter of 2024. This assessment significantly impacted the company's profitability, contributing approximately 5 percentage points to the overall 6% increase in total expenses and reducing diluted earnings per share by $0.32.
How did State Street manage its capital and return value to shareholders?
State Street maintained strong capital ratios, with its CET1 capital ratio at 11.1% and Tier 1 leverage ratio at 5.4%, both within or above its target ranges. The company returned $308 million to shareholders in the first quarter of 2024 through a combination of common stock dividends ($208 million, an increase of 10% per share) and common share repurchases ($100 million).
What is the outlook for State Street's Assets Under Custody/Administration (AUC/A) and Assets Under Management (AUM)?
State Street experienced significant growth in both AUC/A and AUM. AUC/A increased by 17% year-over-year to $43.91 trillion, driven by higher market levels and net new business. AUM also rose by 20% to $4.34 trillion, reflecting similar factors. The company noted that approximately $2.58 trillion of AUC/A is remaining to be installed in future periods, expected over the next 24 months, which should contribute to future fee revenue.
