CEO Walt Bettinger said, “Throughout the first half of 2022, we’ve kept our focus on serving clients and they’ve rewarded us with sustained strength in business momentum and growth. Clients remained engaged during the second quarter even as pressures mounted on the U.S. economy, including rising inflation and the Fed’s corresponding shift to an aggressive tightening stance, ongoing geopolitical turmoil driven by the war in Ukraine, and more-volatile equity markets that are now in bear-market territory. These pressures have all contributed to an environment that highlights the importance of our contemporary approach to full-service investing, where clients can choose how to access the help they need in the manner that works best for them by visiting one of our branches, speaking with one of our phone-based investment professionals, or utilizing the content, resources and capabilities provided through our website and mobile app. The value of Schwab’s scalable, multi-channel service model was on full display during the past quarter as we facilitated over 575 million total interactions, including nearly 5 million inbound contacts with an average speed to answer of less than 20 seconds.”

“Sustained client engagement was also reflected in daily trading volume during the second quarter, which averaged 6.2 million, approximately 3% above year-earlier levels,” Mr. Bettinger continued. “Clients opened 1.0 million new brokerage accounts during the quarter, and we ended June with 33.9 million active accounts, up 5% year-over-year. Additionally, while the core net new assets (NNA) that clients brought to us during the quarter were impacted by the record tax-season outflows we experienced in April, the $73 billion in core NNA that came in between May 1 and June 30 represented a continuation of the 6% annualized organic growth rate we achieved during the first quarter of 2022. We ended June with $6.83 trillion in client assets versus $7.57 trillion a year earlier, which helps illustrate the extent of the market valuation pressures clients are facing even as they’ve added more than $480 billion in core NNA to their accounts over the past 12 months.”

Mr. Bettinger concluded, “As we move deeper into 2022, our focus remains squarely on executing our 'Through Clients’ Eyes' strategy, along with driving progress across our strategic priorities and our TD Ameritrade integration. We know that clients trust us to provide the help and advice they need to navigate any environment, but that it’s particularly important to be there for them as they assess their investments in light of tougher headwinds. To me, there is no greater reward than seeing our client service professionals earn year-to-date satisfaction scores that are among the highest we’ve ever recorded. We remain convinced that our client-first mindset – in combination with our service culture and relentless attention to scale and efficiency – helps create a formidable competitive advantage for Schwab as we continue to realize our vision of modern wealth management.”

“Our second quarter financial results demonstrated the power of our all-weather model as we supported our clients through an increasingly challenging environment,” noted CFO Peter Crawford. “Record total revenue of $5.1 billion, up 13% versus the prior year, reflected a combination of ongoing business momentum, rapidly tightening monetary policy, and continued strength in client engagement. Net interest revenue was up 31% from the prior year as higher interest rates and client cash balances more than offset the impact of softer securities lending activity. At the same time, asset management and administration fees were essentially flat due to weaker equity market valuations and trading revenues were down 7% largely due to changes in the mix of client activity. Additionally, the other revenue line included $37 million in pre-tax gains related to the sales of Schwab Compliance Technologies and a small business investment.”

Mr. Crawford continued, “On the expense front, quarterly GAAP spending increased slightly year-over-year to $2.8 billion, including $94 million in acquisition and integration-related costs and $154 million in amortization of acquired intangibles. Exclusive of these items, adjusted total expenses⁽¹⁾ were up 2% versus the second quarter of 2021. Our pre-tax profit margin expanded to 44.6% and rose nearly 500 basis points to 49.5% on an adjusted basis⁽¹⁾. Also, the reversal of $62 million in tax reserves due to the resolution of certain state matters helped further bolster after-tax profitability. We believe the combination of our diversified revenue mix with disciplined expense prioritization helps keep us positioned to deliver healthy financial performance through the cycle.”

“Attentive balance sheet management, including the maintenance of appropriate capital and liquidity to support client activity, remains core to our financial strategy,” added Mr. Crawford. “During the quarter, total assets contracted by 6% to $638 billion. This decrease was primarily attributable to record tax disbursements in April as well as expected client cash sorting behavior during the latter part of the period. The company’s preliminary Tier 1 Leverage Ratio moved closer to our operating objective, expanding to 6.4% at the end of June, while second quarter return on equity and ROTCE⁽¹⁾ were 19% and 45%, respectively. The overall strength of today’s results highlights our continued success with clients and further bolsters our confidence in our ability to build long-term stockholder value.”

THE CHARLES SCHWAB CORPORATION
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(In millions, except ratios and per share amounts)
(Unaudited)

In addition to disclosing financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (GAAP), Schwab’s second quarter earnings release contains references to the non-GAAP financial measures described below. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information about the financial performance of the Company, and facilitate meaningful comparison of Schwab’s results in the current period to both historic and future results. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies.

Schwab’s use of non-GAAP measures is reflective of certain adjustments made to GAAP financial measures as described below.

Non-GAAP Adjustment or Measure	Definition	Usefulness to Investors and Uses by Management
Acquisition and integration-related costs and amortization of acquired intangible assets	Schwab adjusts certain GAAP financial measures to exclude the impact of acquisition and integration-related costs incurred as a result of the Company’s acquisitions, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and, where applicable, the income tax effect of these expenses.   Adjustments made to exclude amortization of acquired intangible assets are reflective of all acquired intangible assets, which were recorded as part of purchase accounting. These acquired intangible assets contribute to the Company’s revenue generation. Amortization of acquired intangible assets will continue in future periods over their remaining useful lives.	We exclude acquisition and integration-related costs and amortization of acquired intangible assets for the purpose of calculating certain non-GAAP measures because we believe doing so provides additional transparency of Schwab’s ongoing operations, and is useful in both evaluating the operating performance of the business and facilitating comparison of results with prior and future periods.   Acquisition and integration-related costs fluctuate based on the timing of acquisitions and integration activities, thereby limiting comparability of results among periods, and are not representative of the costs of running the Company’s ongoing business. Amortization of acquired intangible assets is excluded because management does not believe it is indicative of the Company’s underlying operating performance.
Return on tangible common equity	Return on tangible common equity represents annualized adjusted net income available to common stockholders as a percentage of average tangible common equity. Tangible common equity represents common equity less goodwill, acquired intangible assets — net, and related deferred tax liabilities.	Acquisitions typically result in the recognition of significant amounts of goodwill and acquired intangible assets. We believe return on tangible common equity may be useful to investors as a supplemental measure to facilitate assessing capital efficiency and returns relative to the composition of Schwab’s balance sheet.

The Company also uses adjusted diluted EPS and return on tangible common equity as components of performance criteria for employee bonus and certain executive management incentive compensation arrangements. The Compensation Committee of CSC’s Board of Directors maintains discretion in evaluating performance against these criteria.
