Insights

Financial Analyst

The reported earnings per share (EPS) and return on equity (ROE) for Ameriprise Financial reflect a robust financial performance, with adjusted operating EPS showing a significant increase of 14 percent. This indicates that the company has been effective in growing its earnings and managing expenses, which is a positive signal for investors looking for profitability and operational efficiency. The strong free cash flow generation and the company's ability to return capital to shareholders at a differentiated rate suggest a healthy balance sheet and liquidity position. Moreover, the growth investments and the successful closure of the partnership with Comerica Bank may enhance Ameriprise's competitive positioning and future revenue streams.

Market Research Analyst

Ameriprise Financial's assets under management and administration increased by 15 percent, which is a key indicator of the company's ability to attract and retain clients. The growth in client assets is a reflection of strong client net inflows and market appreciation, which may bolster investor confidence in the company's advisory and wealth management capabilities. The Advice & Wealth Management segment's performance, with an 11 percent increase in net revenue per advisor, suggests that Ameriprise's advisors are becoming more productive, which could translate into higher revenue per client. This is particularly relevant in the current environment where personalized financial advice is in high demand.

Economist

The economic implications of Ameriprise's financial results extend beyond the company to indicate broader market trends. The company's performance, particularly in the context of market appreciation and client net inflows, suggests a resilient financial services sector amid economic uncertainties. The stability of the underlying fee rate at 46 basis points and disciplined expense management, despite market volatility and interest rate changes, indicate Ameriprise's strategic focus on maintaining profitability. Additionally, the company's operating effective tax rate and its management in light of a regulatory accrual reflect a comprehensive approach to fiscal responsibilities, which is crucial for long-term sustainability.

Adjusted operating net revenues increased 8 percent to $2.4 billion from growth in client assets in both wrap and brokerage accounts, as well as higher interest earnings from cash products.

Adjusted operating expenses increased 9 percent to $1.7 billion compared to a year ago. Distribution expenses increased 10 percent. Excluding the regulatory accrual, general and administrative expense was $401 million, down 1 percent.

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. Clients remain heavily concentrated in yield-oriented products and have not begun putting cash back to work given the current environment.

• Total client net flows were $23 billion in the quarter and $53 billion for the full year.
• Cash balances increased 10 percent to $44.5 billion on a sequential basis. Total client cash including third-party money market funds and brokered CDs increased to $81.5 billion.
• Bank and certificate assets grew 28 percent year-over-year.
• Advisor headcount was 10,367, reflecting good advisor retention coupled with the addition of 166 experienced advisors in the quarter.

Asset Management adjusted operating net revenues grew 8 percent to $845 million and pretax adjusted operating earnings increased 33 percent to $194 million. Financial results reflected equity market appreciation, disciplined expense management and performance fees, which more than offset the cumulative impact of net outflows. Net pretax adjusted operating margin was 32 percent, consistent with the company’s targeted range of 31 to 35 percent.

Adjusted operating expenses increased 2 percent. General and administrative expenses declined 4 percent excluding the impact of foreign exchange translation and performance fee compensation. The company has been implementing more comprehensive expense management initiatives in light of the environment and its objective to maintain the operating margin in the targeted range.

Total assets under management increased 9 percent to $637 billion as equity market appreciation and foreign exchange translation more than offset net outflows. The underlying fee rate remained stable at 46 basis points. Long term 3-, 5- and 10-year investment performance continues to be very strong.

In the quarter, net outflows were $5.2 billion. Flows included $1.2 billion of outflows related to legacy insurance partners.

• Retail net outflows were $0.9 billion reflecting gross sales consistent with the industry and year-over-year improvement in redemptions.
• Global institutional outflows were $3.1 billion, primarily from outflows that were expected from proactive portfolio manager actions related to expense management initiatives.

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 12/31/23. Columbia funds are available for purchase by U.S. customers. Out of 89 Columbia funds rated (based on primary share class), 5 received a 5-star Overall Rating and 35 received a 4-star Overall Rating. Out of 149 Threadneedle funds rated (based on highest-rated share class), 21 received a 5-star Overall Rating and 52 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.
