Net New Client Assets of $22.2B
Record Average Client
Trades per Day of 943,000
GAAP Diluted EPS $0.48; Non-GAAP
Diluted EPS $0.73 (1)
TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation AMTD has released results for the second quarter of fiscal 2018. The Company gathered $22.2 billion in net new client assets for the quarter and reported record client trading activity of approximately 943,000 client trades per day, on average. These results were driven by a resurgence of volatility in the equity markets, which in turn increased investor engagement and trading.
Financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 include the following:(2)
- Net new client assets of approximately $22.2 billion, an annualized growth rate of 8 percent
- Record average client trades per day of approximately 943,000, up 82 percent year over year
- Record net revenues of $1.4 billion, 59 percent of which were asset-based
- Client assets of approximately $1.2 trillion, up 40 percent year over year
- $0.48 in GAAP earnings per diluted share, up 20 percent year over year, on net income of $271 million
- $0.73 in Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share(1), up 66 percent year over year
- Pre-tax GAAP income of $372 million, or 26 percent of net revenues
- Interest rate-sensitive assets(3) of $153 billion, up 23 percent year over year
"Early results of our dual strategy to successfully integrate Scottrade while continuing to accelerate and diversify revenue growth in our core business have exceeded our expectations," said Tim Hockey, TD Ameritrade president and chief executive officer. "With the Scottrade client conversion now successfully behind us, we are turning our focus to increasing our momentum and profitably growing our business. Further enhancing the client experience, investing in innovation and employee development, and increasing our competitive edge will be our priorities as we work through the balance of the fiscal year."
"In our second quarter, market volatility returned in full force as the implications of tax reform became clearer, interest rates continued to rise, and tariff talks surprised the markets," said Steve Boyle, executive vice president and chief financial officer. "These events drove record revenue in the quarter and more than offset some volatility-related losses. Scottrade expense synergies remain on track, and we expect total operating expenses to decline significantly over the remainder of the fiscal year. Leading with technology remains a key focus that necessitates continued investment in order to enhance our offerings and drive efficient growth in the future."
Capital Management
The Company paid $119 million,
or $0.21 per share, in cash dividends in its second fiscal quarter.
The Company has declared a $0.21 per share quarterly cash dividend, payable on May 22, 2018 to all holders of record of common stock as of May 8, 2018.

(1) The provision for income taxes was lower for the six months ended March 31, 2018, primarily due to the realization of approximately $78 million of after-tax benefits recognized during the quarter ended December 31, 2017. These after-tax benefits were primarily attributable to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act for which we recorded a provisional estimate for the remeasurement of our deferred income tax balances. |

Note: The term "GAAP" in the following explanation refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) | Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC Regulation G. We define non-GAAP net income as net income adjusted to remove the after-tax effect of amortization of acquired intangible assets and acquisition-related expenses. We consider non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted EPS as important measures of our financial performance because they exclude certain items that may not be indicative of our core operating results and business outlook and may be useful in evaluating the operating performance of the business and facilitating a meaningful comparison of our results in the current period to those in prior and future periods. Amortization of acquired intangible assets is excluded because management does not believe it is indicative of our underlying business performance. Acquisition-related expenses are excluded as these costs are not representative of the costs of running the Company's on-going business. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted EPS should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, GAAP net income and diluted EPS. | |
(2) |
EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is considered a non-GAAP financial measure as defined by SEC Regulation G. We consider EBITDA to be an important measure of our financial performance and of our ability to generate cash flows to service debt, fund capital expenditures and fund other corporate investing and financing activities. EBITDA is used as the denominator in the consolidated leverage ratio calculation for covenant purposes under our senior revolving credit facility. EBITDA eliminates the non-cash effect of tangible asset depreciation and amortization and intangible asset amortization. EBITDA should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, GAAP pre-tax income, net income and cash flows from operating activities. |
|
(3) |
Liquid assets available for corporate investing and financing activities is considered a non-GAAP financial measure as defined by SEC Regulation G. We consider "liquid assets available for corporate investing and financing activities" to be an important measure of our liquidity. We include the excess capital of our regulated subsidiaries in the calculation of liquid assets available for corporate investing and financing activities, rather than simply including regulated subsidiaries' cash and cash equivalents, because capital requirements may limit the amount of cash available for dividend from the regulated subsidiaries to the parent company. Excess capital, as defined below, is generally available for dividend from the regulated subsidiaries to the parent company. Liquid assets available for corporate investing and financing activities should be considered as a supplemental measure of liquidity, rather than as a substitute for GAAP cash and cash equivalents. |
|
We define liquid assets available for corporate investing and financing activities as the sum of (a) excess corporate cash and cash equivalents and investments, less securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and (b) our regulated subsidiaries' net capital in excess of minimum operational targets established by management. Excess corporate cash and cash equivalents and investments includes cash and cash equivalents from our investment advisory subsidiaries and excludes (i) amounts being maintained to provide liquidity for operational contingencies, including amounts available to be drawn by our broker-dealer and FCM/FDM subsidiaries under the Parent's intercompany committed lines of credit, (ii) amounts maintained for corporate working capital and (iii) the net amounts held as collateral for derivative contracts. Liquid assets available for corporate investing and financing activities is based on more conservative measures of net capital than regulatory requirements because we generally manage to higher levels of net capital at our regulated subsidiaries than the regulatory thresholds require. |
