JPMorgan Chase (JPM), the largest U.S. bank by assets, reported third-quarter earnings on Tuesday that surpassed Wall Street’s expectations, boosted by broad strength in nearly all its major business lines.
Here were the key figures from the report, compared to consensus expectations compiled by Bloomberg:
-
Revenue: $29.3 billion vs. $28.46 billion expected
-
Adj. earnings: $2.68 per share, vs. $2.34 per share expected
Revenue for the quarter set a record, and was even higher on an adjusted basis at $30.06 billion.
“The consumer remains healthy with growth in wages and spending, combined with strong balance sheets and low unemployment levels. This is being offset by weakening business sentiment and capital expenditures mostly driven by increasingly complex geopolitical risks, including tensions in global trade,” said CEO Jamie Dimon.
JPMorgan maintained its No. 1 spot for global investment banking fees, with 9.3% of the wallet share this year. Dimon noted that the firm had a record quarter for investment banking fees with "particularly strong performance in [Debt Capital Markets] and [Equity Capital Markets]." Banking revenue for the quarter was $3.3 billion, up 2% from the same quarter a year ago. Investment banking revenue was $1.9%, up 8% on higher underwriting fees.
Total markets revenue came in at $5.1 billion, up 14% from last year. Fixed income revenue rebounded 25% to come in at $3.6 billion, "driven by strong client activity across products." Equity markets revenue slipped 5% to $1.5 billion "reflecting lower revenues in derivatives."
Elsewhere, in the consumer and community bank, credit card sales volume rose 10% in the quarter, while merchant processing jumped 11%.
The stock, traded on the New York Stock Exchange, jumped more than 2% from Monday’s close to trade near $119.
JPMorgan kicked earnings season off for the big financials. Goldman Sachs (GS), Wells Fargo (WFC), Citigroup (C) will report results on Tuesday, followed by Bank of America (BAC) on Wednesday and Morgan Stanley (MS) on Thursday.
