CEO and President Walt Bettinger commented, “Our ‘through clients’ eyes’
strategy helped build investor trust in Schwab and supported another
year of outstanding growth for our company in 2012. Our individual
client loyalty scores reached new highs during the year, and our client
metrics ended strongly, with December core net new assets totaling a
record $22.6 billion, 28% higher than the previous record set in
March 2008. Core net new assets totaled $112.4 billion for 2012, up 37%
over the prior year. We ended the year with a record $1.95 trillion in
total client assets, up 16% over December 2011. We added 900,000 new
brokerage accounts to our client base during 2012, and active brokerage
accounts reached a record 8.8 million at year-end, up 3% year-over-year.
In addition, we served 865,000 banking accounts and 1.6 million
corporate retirement plan participants as of month-end December 2012, up
11% and 5%, respectively.”
“By continuing to challenge the status quo in investing services we
believe that both our clients and the company win,” Mr. Bettinger said.
“Our progress in completing and delivering a number of significant
innovations in our client service capabilities remained on track
throughout 2012. For example, our new index-based 401(k) offering has 41
companies committed to participate and more than 200 actively
considering enrollment; our new independent branches were open in 12
locations by year-end; and our expanded mobile and tablet solutions are
already being utilized by over half a million clients.”
Mr. Bettinger added, “Just as clients trust us to find a better way to
serve them, our stockholders trust us to use resources effectively as we
work to grow the company and its earnings. With environmental pressures
continuing to slow our revenue progress in 2012, our enduring commitment
to expense discipline enabled Schwab to allocate over $160 million to
projects across our businesses and still deliver a 30% pre-tax profit
margin for the year.”
CFO Joe Martinetto noted, “In addition to successfully growing our
client base in 2012, we made further progress in building non
rate-sensitive sources of revenue, including an 11% increase in fees
from rising balances in our proprietary advice solutions. As a result,
despite further declines in interest rates and relatively muted investor
trading activity, our full-year performance included increases in both
net interest revenue and asset management and administration fees, and
4% overall revenue growth. Our fourth quarter results illustrate the
company’s improved momentum heading into 2013, with year-over-year
revenue growth of 9% and a 29% increase in net income. Looking ahead, we
believe that Schwab’s financial story will remain driven by the three
key themes of strong business growth, diversified revenue streams, and
expense discipline.”
Mr. Martinetto concluded, “Our work to further strengthen the company’s
balance sheet while maximizing its contribution to earnings power
continued throughout 2012. During the fourth quarter, we acted to reduce
the cost of outstanding long-term debt by redeeming the remaining
$494 million of our 4.95% Senior Notes due in 2014, with the cost of the
redemption offset by gains from the sale of selected investment
portfolio securities. Our actions also included the issuance of
$350 million of new Senior Notes with a coupon of 0.85% and a 2015 due
date.”
