ST. LOUIS, November 9, 2011 –Stifel Financial Corp. (NYSE: SF) today reported unaudited net income of $22.3 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, on net revenues of $334.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared with non-GAAP net income of $29.6 million1, or $0.48 per diluted share2, on net revenues of $340.4 million for the third quarter of 2010. On a GAAP basis, the company reported a net loss of $84.3 million, or $1.65 per diluted share2 for the third quarter of 2010.  A reconciliation of the company’s GAAP results to these non-GAAP measures is discussed below under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the company reported non-GAAP net income of $86.5 million1, or $1.37 per diluted share, on net revenues of $1.1 billion, compared with non-GAAP net income of $77.4 million1, or $1.39 per diluted share2, on net revenues of $980.4 million during the comparable period in 2010. On a GAAP basis, the company reported unaudited net income of $57.1 million, or $0.90 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared with an unaudited net loss of $39.5 million, or $0.82 per diluted share2, during the comparable period in 2010. A reconciliation of the company’s GAAP results to these non-GAAP measures is discussed below under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
 
“Our third quarter demonstrates the importance of a balanced business model, particularly in a volatile environment. While not immune to the current macroeconomic headwinds, our Global Wealth Management segment generated impressive results, while the dearth of capital markets activity weighed on our investment banking revenues,” commented Ronald J. Kruszewski, Chairman, President and CEO of Stifel Financial. “Our business model and capital base are solid. We need conviction in the marketplace and lower volatility to return to the margins our firm is capable of producing. We remain focused on serving our clients and are well positioned to capitalize on the opportunities ahead.”

Global Wealth Management
 
For the quarter ended September 30, 2011, the Global Wealth Management (“GWM”) segment generated pre-tax operating income of $55.6 million, compared with $51.7 million in the third quarter of 2010 and $55.4 million in the second quarter of 2011. Net revenues for the quarter were $219.5 million, compared with $207.5 million in the third quarter of 2010, and $225.6 million in the second quarter of 2011. The increase in net revenues over the comparable period in 2010 is primarily attributable to: (1) higher commission revenues as a result of increased client assets coupled with higher productivity; (2) growth in asset management and service fees as a result of an increase in assets under management and positive gains in market performance; and (3) increased net interest revenues as a result of the growth of net interest-earning assets at Stifel Bank. The decrease in net revenues from the second quarter of 2011 was primarily attributable to a decrease in commissions and principal transactions revenues, as a result of lower trading volumes and lower sales credits from investment banking underwritings.
  • The Private Client Group reported net revenues of $201.9 million, a 2% increase compared with the third quarter of 2010 and a 5% decrease compared with the second quarter of 2011.

  • Stifel Bank reported net revenues of $17.6 million, a 73% increase compared with the third quarter of 2010 and a 45% increase compared with the second quarter of 2011.

 
Institutional Group
 
For the quarter ended September 30, 2011, the Institutional Group segment generated pre-tax operating income of $9.2 million, compared with $27.7 million in the third quarter of 2010 and $22.0 million in the second quarter of 2011. Net revenues for the quarter were $113.3 million, compared with $138.0 million in the third quarter of 2010 and $132.9 million in the second quarter of 2011. The decrease in net revenues from the comparable period in 2010 was driven by a decline in advisory fees, fixed income institutional brokerage and capital raising revenues, which were negatively impacted by the challenging market conditions present during the third quarter of 2011 and lower industry-wide capital raising volumes. The decrease in net revenues from the second quarter of 2011 was primarily attributable to a decrease in advisory fees and capital raising revenues, partially offset by an increase in institutional brokerage revenues.

Institutional brokerage revenues were $79.0 million, a 10% decrease compared with the third quarter of 2010 and an 8% increase compared with the second quarter of 2011.
  • Equity brokerage revenues were $47.2 million, an 8% increase compared with the third quarter of 2010 and a 13% increase compared with the second quarter of 2011.

  • Fixed income brokerage revenues were $31.8 million, a 27% decrease compared with the third quarter of 2010 and a 1% increase compared with the second quarter of 2011.

Investment banking revenues were $33.9 million, a 26% decrease compared with the third quarter of 2010 and a 42% decrease compared with the second quarter of 2011.
  • Equity capital raising revenues were $16.4 million, a 9% decrease compared with the third quarter of 2010 and a 42% decrease compared with the second quarter of 2011.

  • Fixed income capital raising revenues were $5.0 million, a 12% increase compared with the third quarter of 2010 and a 2% decrease compared with the second quarter of 2011.

  • Equity advisory fee revenues were $10.9 million, a 46% decrease compared with the third quarter of 2010, and a 52% decrease compared with the second quarter of 2011.

  • Fixed income advisory fee revenues were $1.6 million, a 44% decrease compared with the third quarter of 2010 and an 18% decrease compared with the second quarter of 2011.

 
Consolidated Compensation and Benefits Expenses
 
For the quarter ended September 30, 2011, compensation and benefits expenses were $210.6 million, compared to $395.9 million in the third quarter of 2010, which included $183.2 million related to the modification of the company’s deferred compensation plan and merger-related expenses. Compensation and benefits expenses for the second quarter of 2011 were $229.9 million, which included $2.0 million of merger-related expenses. Excluding these expenses, compensation and benefits expenses decreased 1% compared with the third quarter of 2010 and decreased 8% compared with the second quarter of 2011.
 
Compensation and benefits as a percentage of net revenues was 63%5 compared with 62%5 in the third quarter of 2010 and 64%5 in the second quarter of 2011. Transition pay, which primarily consists of amortization of upfront notes, signing bonuses and retention awards, as a percentage of net revenues was 5% in the third quarter of 2011 compared with 8% in the third quarter of 2010 and 5% in the second quarter of 2011.
 
Consolidated Non-Compensation Operating Expenses
 
For the quarter ended September 30, 2011, non-compensation operating expenses were $84.6 million, compared to $87.0 million in the third quarter of 2010, which included $8.5 million of merger-related expenses. Non-compensation operating expenses for the second quarter of 2011 were $125.0 million, which included $43.1 million of litigation-related charges and merger-related expenses.
 
Excluding litigation and merger-related expenses, non-compensation operating expenses increased 8% compared with the third quarter of 2010 and increased 3% compared with the second quarter of 2011. The increase in non-compensation operating expenses is primarily attributable to an increase in expenses as a result of the merger with TWPG.
 
Non-compensation operating expenses as a percentage of net revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 was 25%5 compared with 23%5 in the third quarter of 2010 and 23%5 in the second quarter of 2011. The higher ratio in the third quarter of 2011 was driven by the impact of increased non-compensation operating expenses on lower revenues.
 
Provision for Income Taxes
 
The effective income tax rate for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 was 43% compared with 41% for the comparable period in 2010. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2011 increased primarily as a result of adjustments to the company’s uncertain tax positions.

Statement of Financial Condition (Unaudited)
 
Total assets increased 18% to $4.9 billion as of September 30, 2011 from $4.2 billion as of September 30, 2010. The increase is primarily attributable to growth of the company’s bank subsidiary, which as of September 30, 2011 has grown its assets to $2.3 billion from $1.5 billion as of September 30, 2010. As of September 30, 2011, Stifel Bank’s investment portfolio of $1.3 billion has increased 58% from September 30, 2010, with more than 99% of the investment portfolio comprised of investment grade securities, of which more than 67% were GSE guaranteed MBS or AAA rated investments. The company’s broker-dealer subsidiary’s gross assets and liabilities, including trading inventory, stock loan/borrow, receivables and payables from/to brokers, dealers and clearing organizations and clients, fluctuate with business levels and overall market conditions. The company has no exposure to non-U.S. sovereign debt.
 
Total stockholders’ equity as of September 30, 2011 increased $49.2 million, or 4%, to $1.3 billion from $1.2 billion as of September 30, 2010. Book value per share was $24.48 as of September 30, 2011. The company repurchased $48.5 million, or 1.7 million shares6, of its common stock pursuant to existing Board repurchase authorizations since September 30, 2010. On November 7, 2011, the Board authorized the repurchase of an additional 3.0 million shares. Under existing Board authorizations at November 7, 2011, we are permitted to buy an additional 4.3 million shares.
 
As of September 30, 2011, the company reported total securities owned and investments at fair value of $2.0 billion, which included securities categorized as Level 3 of $188.7 million. The company’s Level 3 assets include auction rate securities and private equity and other fixed income securities with fair values of $137.9 million and $50.8 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2011.
 
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 
The company utilized non-GAAP calculations of presented net revenues, compensation and benefits, non-compensation operating expenses, income before income taxes, provision for income taxes, net income, compensation and non-compensation operating expense ratios, pre-tax margin and diluted earnings per share as an additional measure to aid in understanding and analyzing the company’s financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the three months ended June 30, 2011 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010. Specifically, the company believes that the non-GAAP measures provide useful information by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the company’s core operating results and business outlook. The company believes that these non-GAAP measures will allow for a better evaluation of the operating performance of the business and facilitate a meaningful comparison of the company’s results in the current period to those in prior periods and future periods. Reference to these non-GAAP measures should not be considered as a substitute for results that are presented in a manner consistent with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance investors' overall understanding of the company’s current financial performance. These non-GAAP amounts exclude litigation-related expenses associated with the civil lawsuit and related regulatory investigation in connection with the ongoing matter with five Southeastern Wisconsin school districts, compensation expense related to the acceleration of deferred compensation as a result of the modification of the company’s deferred compensation plan and certain compensation and non-compensation operating expenses associated with the merger of TWPG.
 
A limitation of utilizing these non-GAAP measures of net revenues, compensation and benefits, non-compensation operating expenses, income before income taxes, provision for income taxes, net income, compensation and non-compensation operating expenses ratios, pre-tax margin and diluted earnings per share is that the GAAP accounting effects of these merger-related charges do in fact reflect the underlying financial results of the company’s business and these effects should not be ignored in evaluating and analyzing its financial results. Therefore, the company believes that GAAP measures of net revenues, compensation and benefits, non-compensation operating expenses, income before income taxes, provision for income taxes, net income, compensation and non-compensation operating expense ratios, pre-tax margin and diluted earnings per share and the same respective non-GAAP measures of the company’s financial performance should be considered together.
