1Q24 Financial Commentary

While total net revenues declined by 7% versus the prior year, rising equity markets and increased client engagement helped drive 6% sequential top-line growth
Net interest margin expanded by 13 basis points quarter-over-quarter to 2.02% due to greater margin balance utilization and a decline in outstanding supplemental funding ⁽⁶⁾
Total supplemental funding ⁽⁶⁾ decreased by $8.8 billion from the prior year-end to finish the quarter at $70.8 billion
Client transactional sweep cash balances ended March at $399.2 billion – with bank sweep deposits and broker-dealer free credit balances above levels observed immediately prior to the late-2023 seasonal build
Asset management and administration fees increased by 21% over the prior year to a record $1.3 billion
Mix shift in client trading activity compressed the average revenue per trade to $2.25, down 5% versus 4Q23
Year-over-year expenses benefited from the impact of the late-2023 incremental cost savings, with total expenses declining by 2% as acquisition and integration-related costs, amortization of acquired intangibles, and restructuring costs came in 40% lower at $140 million. Exclusive of these items, adjusted total expenses ⁽¹⁾ grew by 1% relative to the prior year reflecting higher volume-related costs, including elevated client engagement amid higher market valuations
Charles Schwab Bank, SSB (CSB) capital ratios continued to build, with preliminary Tier 1 Leverage and adjusted Tier 1 Leverage ⁽¹⁾ reaching 10.4% and 5.7%, respectively

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 first 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. Beginning in the third quarter of 2023, these adjustments also include restructuring costs, which the Company began incurring in connection with its previously announced plans to streamline its operations to prepare for post-integration of Ameritrade. See Part II – Item 8 – Note 15 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for additional information.

Non-GAAP Adjustment or Measure

Definition

Usefulness to Investors and Uses by Management

Acquisition and integration-related costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and restructuring costs

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, restructuring costs, 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.
