Insights

XP Inc.'s Q3 2024 results show resilient growth with notable highlights: Net Income reached R$1.2 billion, up 9% YoY, while Total Client Assets grew to R$1.2 trillion, increasing 12% YoY. The company's efficiency metrics are impressive, achieving its lowest efficiency ratio since IPO at 35.5%.

Key strengths include retail revenue growth of 10% YoY to R$3.5 billion, driven by strong fixed income performance (31% YoY growth) and cards revenue (17% YoY growth). The company's capital position remains solid with a BIS ratio of 21.5%.

The announced R$2 billion dividend payment and R$1 billion share repurchase program demonstrate strong capital return to shareholders. However, net inflows declined 36% YoY, which warrants monitoring.

XP's market positioning continues to strengthen despite competitive pressures. The 6% YoY growth in active clients to 4.7 million and 9% increase in total advisors demonstrate successful market penetration. The company's diversification strategy is paying off, with insurance premiums growing 46% YoY and cards TPV up 12%.

The stable high NPS score of 72 indicates strong customer satisfaction, while the 4.9% market share in retirement plans suggests room for growth. The credit portfolio's 85% collateralization with investments reflects conservative risk management. These metrics suggest XP is successfully executing its strategy to become a full-service financial platform.

In 3Q24, BIS Ratio was 21.5%, up 96 bps QoQ and 145 bps lower YoY. While our total RWA was R$94.7 billion, with a 3% increase QoQ and 30% increase YoY.

Market data and industry information used throughout this release are based on management’s knowledge of the industry and the good faith estimates of management. The Company also relied, to the extent available, upon management’s review of industry surveys and publications and other publicly available information prepared by a number of third-party sources. All of the market data and industry information used in this release involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates. Although the Company believes that these sources are reliable, there can be no assurance as to the accuracy or completeness of this information, and the Company has not independently verified this information.

This release includes our Float, Adjusted Gross Financial Assets, Net Asset Value, and Adjustments to Reported Net Income, which are non-GAAP financial information. We believe that such information is meaningful and useful in understanding the activities and business metrics of the Company’s operations. We also believe that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company’s business that, when viewed with our International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) results, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company’s business. Further, investors regularly rely on non-GAAP financial measures to assess operating performance and such measures may highlight trends in the Company’s business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying on financial measures calculated in accordance with IFRS. We also believe that certain non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of public companies in the Company’s industry, many of which present these measures when reporting their results. The non-GAAP financial information is presented for informational purposes and to enhance understanding of the IFRS financial statements. The non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with IFRS, but not as a substitute for, or superior to, IFRS results. As other companies may determine or calculate this non-GAAP financial information differently, the usefulness of these measures for comparative purposes is limited. A reconciliation of such non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest GAAP measure is included in this release.

For purposes of this release:

“Active Clients” means the total number of retail clients served through our XP Investimentos, Rico, Clear, XP Investments and XP Private (Europe) brands, with Client Assets above R$100.00 or that have transacted at least once in the last thirty days. For purposes of calculating this metric, if a client holds an account in more than one of the aforementioned entities, such client will be counted as one “active client” for each such account. For example, if a client holds an account in each of XP Investimentos and Rico, such client will count as two “active clients” for purposes of this metric.

“Client Assets” means the market value of all client assets invested through XP’s platform and that is related to reported Retail Revenue, including equities, fixed income securities, mutual funds (including those managed by XP Gestão de Recursos Ltda., XP Advisory Gestão de Recursos Ltda. and XP Vista Asset Management Ltda., as well as by third-party asset managers), pension funds (including those from XP Vida e Previdência S.A., as well as by third-party insurance companies), exchange traded funds, COEs (Structured Notes), REITs, and uninvested cash balances (Float Balances), among others. Although Client Assets includes custody from Corporate Clients that generate Retail Revenue, it does not include custody from institutional clients (asset managers, pension funds and insurance companies).

Rounding

We have made rounding adjustments to some of the figures included in this release. Accordingly, numerical figures shown as totals in some tables may not be an arithmetic aggregation of the figures that preceded them.
