Stifel Reports April 2024 Operating Data

ST. LOUIS, May 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stifel Financial Corp. (NYSE: SF) today reported selected operating results for April 30, 2024 in an effort to provide timely information to investors on certain key performance metrics. Due to the limited nature of this data, a consistent correlation to earnings should not be assumed.

Ronald J. Kruszewski, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Total client assets and fee-based assets increased 12% and 15%, respectively, from the same period a year ago, as a result of strong recruiting and market appreciation. However, a decline in equity markets in April was the primary driver behind a 3% decline in both metrics versus March 2024 levels. Client money market and insured product balances decreased 2% in April, driven by seasonal tax payments and modest cash sorting as both Smart Rate and Sweep balances declined during the month. As we noted in our most recent earnings call, we are beginning to see increased lending opportunities and, as such, our total bank loans increased 2% in April, fueled by growth in our fund banking business.”
