Strong quarterly performance with $1.2 billion in revenue, up 17% year-over-year and EPS growth of 150%. Key highlights include $149.2 million in net income and significant improvements in investment banking revenues (up 66%). The $496.3 billion in client assets represents a substantial 20% increase, demonstrating robust wealth management growth.

Notable strength in capital raising (up 114%) and advisory revenues (up 41%) indicates improving market conditions and deal flow. The 19.2% non-GAAP pre-tax margin and 20% ROTCE show strong operational efficiency. The company's capital position remains solid with a 15% Tier 1 common capital ratio.

The results demonstrate Stifel's successful diversification strategy and market positioning. Strong performance across both Global Wealth Management and Institutional Group segments indicates resilient business model. The recruitment of 28 financial advisors and 26% growth in fee-based assets suggests continued organic growth momentum.

The stabilization of net interest income and improved investment banking metrics point to favorable market conditions. The company's ability to maintain expense discipline while investing in growth positions it well for continued expansion. The positive outlook for Q4 2024 and 2025 indicates sustained business momentum.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stifel Financial Corp. (NYSE: SF) today reported net revenues of $1.2 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared with $1.0 billion a year ago. Net income available to common shareholders was $149.2 million, or $1.34 per diluted common share, compared with $58.8 million, or $0.52 per diluted common share for the third quarter of 2023. Non-GAAP net income available to common shareholders was $166.3 million, or $1.50 per diluted common share for the third quarter of 2024.

Ronald J. Kruszewski, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said “The third quarter represented our second highest quarterly net revenue, an increase of 17%, while earnings per share increased 150%. Through the first three quarters of 2024, net revenue was up 13% to a record $3.6 billion, driven by continued growth in Global Wealth, improvement in our Institutional business, and the stabilization of net interest income. Our financial results illustrate the strength of the Stifel franchise and our ability to capitalize on improving market conditions. Momentum in our business continues to build and we anticipate further upside to both the top and bottom lines in the fourth quarter and in 2025.”

Highlights

    • Capital raising revenues increased 114% over the year-ago quarter.
