Co-Chairman and CEO Walt Bettinger said, “Our consistent 'Through Clients’ Eyes' strategy helped us continue to succeed with clients even as they faced a very difficult environment in 2022. Emerging concerns around inflation and global market stability became reality, with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine exacerbating the impact. Equity markets suffered their worst year since 2008, led by the S&P 500® and NASDAQ Composite® which contracted 19% and 33%, respectively. At the same time, the Federal Reserve tightened short-term rates at the fastest pace in 40 years – pushing the Fed Funds upper bound to 4.50% in December. Additionally, uncertainty around future economic growth increased during the back half of the year, weighing on longer-term rates and leading to an inverted yield curve. This shift reflected the persistent bearish sentiment amongst investors for most of the year – with certain indicators hitting levels below those observed during the 2008 Financial Crisis.”

Mr. Bettinger continued, “Against this challenging backdrop, investors looked to Schwab for help achieving their financial goals. Both of our primary businesses contributed to core net new assets of $428 billion, a full-year organic growth rate of 5%, which included record tax-related outflows in April. Total client assets ended the year at $7.05 trillion, as the company’s asset gathering was offset by $1.5 trillion in lower market values over the past 12 months. In addition, we also added over 4 million new brokerage accounts, pushing total accounts to nearly 34 million by December 31. Momentum within the retail channel was particularly strong in 2022, achieving record core inflows during 6 separate months. Similarly, Advisor Services attracted over 350 transitioning advisor teams, the second highest number ever, and recorded a transfer of account ratio of approximately 2-to-1 for the fifth consecutive year.”

“Through the relentless efforts of our dedicated employees, we made significant progress on our key strategic initiatives of scale and efficiency, win-win monetization, and segmentation,” Mr. Bettinger added. “This work included ongoing preparations for the largest broker-dealer integration in our industry’s history – with the first wave of client conversions scheduled to begin next month. Throughout 2022, we also took meaningful steps to further empower investors with more personalization options, increased access to high-quality products, and an evolved suite of tools and solutions. We launched our proprietary direct indexing offering, Schwab Personalized Indexing™ (SPI), for both registered investment advisors (RIAs) and retail clients – providing them with tax-efficient, customizable portfolio management capabilities at a much lower cost than existing alternatives in the market. Additionally, we introduced our initial thematic stock lists, which assist self-directed clients in selecting stocks aligned with their personal perspectives and values. The current range of themes spans over 40 different categories, including environmental innovation, artificial intelligence, and medical breakthroughs. We also further bolstered our leading value proposition to RIAs by expanding our institutional no transaction fee mutual fund platform to include over 900 additional equity and bond funds across 16 leading third-party asset managers. Finally, Schwab’s wealth management capabilities continued to evolve with the needs of our clients, including a growing interest in fixed income. Client allocations to this asset class increased 66% versus December 2021 as they took advantage of our self-directed tools and income-focused advisory solutions such as Wasmer Schroeder™ Strategies. The Wasmer team’s ability to deliver an attractive value proposition across a range of tax-exempt and taxable offers, along with rising interest rates, helped these strategies collect $7.3 billion in net flows since becoming part of Schwab in July 2020 – including $3.5 billion in 2022.”

Mr. Bettinger concluded, “Our focus on meeting the needs of individual investors and the advisors who serve them remains steadfast across any environment. This commitment to consistency of mission, service, and experience sets us apart, helping to drive our strong performance and keeping us positioned as one of the most trusted names in financial services. While we are proud of the firm’s success thus far, we believe there is tremendous opportunity still ahead of us and we are excited to keep striving to deliver value for all of our key stakeholders – clients, employees, and owners.”

CFO Peter Crawford commented, “Schwab’s record financial performance in 2022 highlighted the resiliency of our diversified financial model. Sustained business momentum through an uneven macroeconomic environment helped drive 12% growth in total net revenues. Net interest revenue reached $10.7 billion, an increase of 33% versus the prior year, as higher interest rates more than offset the impact of balance sheet contraction due to client cash sorting. Lower market valuations throughout the year pushed asset management and administration fees down slightly to $4.2 billion, or 1% year-over-year. Trading revenue declined by 12% to $3.7 billion as daily average trades subsided from 2021’s unprecedented levels to just under 6 million for the full year. Transitioning to expenses, our total GAAP spending grew 5% to $11.4 billion, reflecting client engagement and growth, as well as the 12-month impact of the broad employee salary increase that went into effect at the end of 2021. Acquisition and integration-related costs and amortization of acquired intangibles were $392 million and $596 million, respectively. Exclusive of these items, adjusted total expenses (1) were up 7% year-over-year. Strong revenue growth and balanced expense management enabled us to deliver a 45.2% pre-tax profit margin for the full year – 50.0% on an adjusted basis (1) .”

“Over the course of the year, our approach to balance sheet management prioritized flexibility to help navigate through a dynamic environment,” Mr. Crawford added. “As rates rose from the ultra-low levels observed during the most recent period of the Federal Reserve’s Zero Interest-rate Policy, clients allocated a growing portion of their assets to higher yielding cash and fixed income alternatives. As a result of this expected sorting activity, the balance sheet shrank by $115 billion, a decline of 17% versus December 31, 2021. To facilitate these movements, we took steps to further bolster liquidity by limiting new portfolio investments to help build available cash and utilizing a limited amount of short-term funding sources such as Federal Home Loan Bank Advances and retail certificates of deposit. At the same time, the combination of Schwab’s enhanced earnings power and lower capital intensity enabled us to accelerate the pace of capital return to our owners. Following the authorization of a $15 billion buyback program in July, we have repurchased an aggregate of 47 million shares for $3.4 billion in 2022. During the year, we also redeemed $1 billion of preferred equity and increased our common dividend by 22%. Inclusive of these actions, the company’s preliminary Tier 1 Leverage Ratio finished the year at 7.2%, above our stated operating objective of 6.50% – 6.75%.”

Mr. Crawford concluded, “Although 2022 unfolded much differently than we and many others anticipated at the start of the year, Schwab’s unwavering focus on serving clients, along with our all-weather business model, delivered another year of record financial performance. We believe the core tenets of the company’s financial formula remain firmly intact. The combination of strong business momentum, diversified revenue growth, expense discipline, and attentive capital management supports our long-term growth plus capital return story.”

In addition to disclosing financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (GAAP), Schwab’s fourth 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.
