CEO Walt Bettinger said, “Schwab achieved truly noteworthy results in
2016 by sustaining our ‘Through Clients’ Eyes’ strategy and working to
earn our clients’ trust every day. During the year, from disappointing
economic news early on, to the disruption of the Brexit vote, and then
through the tumult of the presidential election, clients could trust
that Schwab stood ready to help them navigate market volatility, and
they made active use of our full-service capabilities. Our financial
consultants held planning conversations with approximately 132,000
clients last year, up 18% from 2015. Client assets enrolled in one of
our retail advisory solutions and those guided by independent advisors
totaled $1.40 trillion at the end of 2016, up 12%. New and existing
clients brought $125.5 billion in core net new assets to Schwab during
2016, marking a 5% annual organic growth rate and the 5th
consecutive year over $100 billion. Net new assets in our Retail and
Advisor Services businesses rose by 10% and 21%, respectively, over the
prior year, while Mutual Fund Clearing and Retirement Plan flows slowed
due to client turnover. Total client assets at year-end were a record
$2.78 trillion, up 11%. We closed out 2016 serving more clients than
ever, including 10.2 million active brokerage accounts, 1.1 million
banking accounts and 1.5 million retirement plan participants, increases
of 4%, 7% and 2%, respectively.”
Mr. Bettinger continued, “As Schwab continues to offer more value and a
better investing experience, new and existing clients choose to entrust
us with more of their assets, fueling our financial performance. Our
revenues rose 17% to a record $7.5 billion in 2016. On the expense
front, we entered the year with goals that allowed for needed growth in
our infrastructure and increased reinvestment to better serve clients
while still delivering improved profitability. We kept to those goals
through the ups and downs of 2016, which helped us increase net income
by nearly a third over our 2015 performance, to a record $1.9 billion.”
Mr. Bettinger added, “Our work to challenge the status quo on behalf of
our clients continued across multiple fronts in 2016. We expanded and
enhanced our Schwab OpenView Gateway® and Schwab Advisor
Center® platforms to help the independent advisors who
custody with us operate more efficiently and stay focused on serving
their clients. We introduced Schwab Intelligent Advisory® as
an extension of our contemporary, full-service approach to helping all
individual clients build and manage their wealth. Schwab Intelligent
Advisory is designed to be broadly accessible with a low balance minimum
and fee, combining personalized financial and investment planning
through CFP® professionals with automated and diversified
portfolio management through Schwab Intelligent Portfolios®.
As part of our commitment to offering more value to investors, we
launched the Schwab Target Index Funds, a new series of target-date
mutual funds constructed with Schwab ETFs that are designed to be the
lowest cost of their kind available to employer-sponsored retirement
plans and retail investors.* We also expanded Schwab ETF OneSource™ by
16 net new funds in 2016, enabling Schwab clients to choose from a total
of 228 ETFs covering 69 Morningstar categories, all for $0 online trade
commissions. In addition, we introduced the Schwab Live hub to provide
traders with centralized access to the interactive and live content we
offer to help them succeed. We also continued our work to make it easier
to establish a relationship with a locally-based investment professional
by extending our footprint across the country – we added 3 new company
branches and 5 new independent branches during the year.”
CFO Joe Martinetto commented, “Schwab’s 2016 performance is a clear
example of the company’s financial formula again working as designed:
solid business growth driving solid revenue growth through diversified
sources, leading to improved profitability through continued expense
discipline. We expanded client assets by 11% during an environment that
had some rough patches but ultimately included improving economic
conditions, positive equity market returns and, at long last, the second
small step by the Federal Reserve away from its zero interest rate
policy of recent years. We achieved 17% revenue growth by generating
record levels of net interest revenue and asset management and
administration fees, which more than offset lower revenue from trading
and the conclusion of certain litigation. Net interest revenue rose 32%
to $3.3 billion due to a strong increase in client cash sweep deposits
and higher short-term interest rates. Asset management and
administration fees rose by 15% to $3.1 billion largely due to higher
money market fund management fees relating to the rate environment and
continued lift in client assets enrolled in one of our retail advisory
solutions. Higher rates provided breathing room for our increased
investment in people and technology, resulting in 9% expense growth for
2016. This increase more than doubled our constrained 2015 increase but
still allowed for a 780 basis point gap between revenue and expense
growth and a record 40% pre-tax profit margin, beating the prior
high-water mark set in 2008.”
Mr. Martinetto concluded, “We remain focused on managing the company’s
balance sheet to support growth initiatives and further our strategy of
optimizing the spread earned on client cash sweep balances. We completed
approximately $8 billion in bulk transfers to Schwab Bank during 2016,
including approximately $4 billion in the fourth quarter. These
transfers, along with growth in bank deposits from our ongoing asset
gathering, helped increase interest-earning assets on our balance sheet
by 22% during 2016 to $216 billion at year-end. We supported this growth
with capital generated through earnings and the issuance of
approximately $1.4 billion in additional preferred stock. As part of
managing Schwab’s capital levels, we maintain a target range for common
stock dividends equal to 20-30% of earnings; consistent with our
improving earnings picture, we increased our quarterly cash dividend by
17% during the year, to $0.07. We ended 2016 with a preliminary Tier-1
Leverage ratio of 7.2% and a full-year return on equity of 14%, the
highest in seven years. Our solid capital position and healthy returns
position Schwab to continue investing for profitable growth and sharing
the benefits of our scale with clients while building long-term
stockholder value.”
