+Added: After lowering rates by a total of 75 basis points through three consecutive cuts in the fourth quarter of 2025, the Federal Reserve held the federal funds rate steady during its first quarter 2026 meetings, with officials indicating that any additional reductions would require clearer progress on inflation amid heightened uncertainty caused by the war in the Middle East.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
−Removed: Our third quarter operating performance saw a substantial increase in investment banking revenues amid a still-favorable capital raising environment.
−Removed: Market concerns about lingering inflation, a weakening labor market and eroding central bank independence were outweighed by the positive sentiments emanating from the Federal Reserve embarking on a new rate cutting cycle.
−Removed: In addition, continuing enthusiasm around the potential for spending related to the utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) resulted in extended rallies that pushed all major indices to new record highs in September.
−Removed: These conditions spurred a significant rise in new equity issuance volumes and resulted in significantly higher investment banking revenues during the third quarter.
−Removed: The momentum in the financial markets also provided a positive backdrop for our Wealth Management business, as rising markets propelled AUM to a new all-time high.
−Removed: This in turn drove higher fee-based revenues while strong investor sentiment also led to higher transaction volumes and commissions.
−Removed: Our Wealth Management results, however, were adversely impacted by reduced interest-sensitive sweep income largely due to lower average sweep balances and rates.
−Removed: Although we were gratified to see markets recognize our success by bidding up our share price to a new record high, it also drove higher compensation expense associated with certain employee liability-based awards that rose in value in direct correlation with the increase in our share price during the quarter and negatively impacted our results for the quarter.
−Removed: Specifically, compensation expenses for these liability-based awards totaled $13.5 million or $0.95 basic earnings per share (after-tax).
−Removed: With three-quarters of the year now behind us, we have already exceeded the Company’s full year 2024 operating results.
−Removed: As we enter the fourth quarter, we remain focused on our clients, helping them raise, manage and allocate their capital.
−Removed: Our success is a reflection of good client outcomes and long-term relationships built over many market cycles.
−Removed: We are optimistic about the future and the many investment opportunities available, while remaining cautious and vigilant about the uncertainties that could emerge.
+Added: Notwithstanding the unfavorable impact of the “cash sweep” settlement on the Company’s overall results for the first quarter, the Firm's core businesses delivered solid operating results.
+Added: Despite an increasingly challenging geopolitical environment, the strength of our franchise proved its ability to support clients across all business environments.
+Added: The ongoing conflict with Iran disrupted global energy flows and intensified inflationary pressure on oil and gas prices, which in turn weighed negatively on the financial markets during March.
+Added: As a result of the conflict, equity markets exhibited significant volatility with indices now hovering at or near their all-time highs.
+Added: While the pre-tax results for our Wealth Management segment were lowered by the impact of our stock-based compensation program for financial advisors, underlying performance across the business remained solid.
+Added: Commission revenues benefited from heightened market volatility, which drove elevated client trading.
+Added: Although assets under management (“AUM”) eased from last quarter’s all-time highs, they remained meaningfully above prior year levels, supporting continued strength in our asset-based advisory fees.
+Added: Overall segment results were negatively impacted by higher compensation expense related to liability-based stock appreciation rights benefiting advisors that rose in value in direct correlation with the significant increase in our share price throughout the quarter.
+Added: Our Capital Markets business delivered a strong start to the year, driven by higher investment banking fees, when compared with the prior year period, reflecting the successful closing of advisory and underwriting mandates.
+Added: Sales and trading revenue within our Equities and Fixed Income businesses were also boosted by higher volatility in both the debt and equity markets.
+Added: We are pleased to have resolved the “cash sweep” litigation and to put this matter behind us.
+Added: Despite the settlement's negative impact to our quarterly results, our operating businesses performed well.
+Added: Our capital position remains robust, enabling us to return additional value to stockholders as highlighted by our announced 11.1% increase in the quarterly dividend to $0.20 per share.
+Added: Looking ahead, we remain focused on supporting our clients across the enterprise as they continue to navigate uncertain markets.
