2025-08-01 12:18
[Overall Financial Performance](index=1&type=section&id=Overall%20Financial%20Performance) Oppenheimer Holdings reported strong Q2 2025 results, with net income doubling and revenue increasing, driven by robust investment banking and wealth management activities [Second Quarter 2025 Earnings Summary](index=1&type=section&id=Second%20Quarter%202025%20Earnings%20Summary) Oppenheimer Holdings reported a strong second quarter for 2025, with net income more than doubling to $21.7 million and revenue increasing by 12.9% to $373.2 million year-over-year. This significant growth was driven by higher investment banking revenue, increased transaction-based commissions, and greater advisory fees from a rise in assets under management (AUM). Consequently, both book value and tangible book value per share reached new record highs Quarterly Financial Highlights | Metric | Q2 2025 | Q2 2024 | Change | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Revenue | $373.2 million | $330.6 million | +12.9% | | Net Income | $21.7 million | $10.3 million | +110.7% | | Basic EPS | $2.06 | $0.99 | +108.1% | Firm Summary Operating Results | Firm Summary Operating Results ('000s) | Q2-25 | Q2-24 | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Revenue | $373,178 | $330,589 | | Pre-Tax Income | $32,210 | $15,865 | | Net Income | $21,674 | $10,266 | | Book Value Per Share | $85.27 | $78.63 | | Tangible Book Value Per Share | $68.25 | $61.56 | - **Significantly higher investment banking revenue** from increased underwriting and advisory mandates[9](index=9&type=chunk) - **Rising markets lifted assets under administration and management to new records**[9](index=9&type=chunk) - **Increased compensation expenses** were tied to higher production, while **non-compensation expenses rose** due to technology and travel costs[9](index=9&type=chunk) [CEO's Commentary](index=1&type=section&id=CEO%27s%20Commentary) The CEO attributed the strong quarterly results to the firm's business strength and maturing investments in personnel. Despite initial market volatility from trade policy fears, a subsequent market rally to record highs benefited the Wealth Management business by driving AUM to new records. The Capital Markets division also saw a substantial revenue increase from strong trading volumes and a rebound in investment banking. The firm maintains an unlevered balance sheet with record-high capital and remains optimistic for the second half of the year - Rising markets proved favorable for the Wealth Management business, driving Assets Under Management (AUM) to a **new record** and resulting in **higher asset-based advisory fees**[3](index=3&type=chunk) - The Capital Markets businesses showed a **substantial increase in total revenue**, buoyed by **strong institutional trading volumes** and **improved Investment Banking revenue** from more advisory assignments and **robust underwriting**[4](index=4&type=chunk) - The firm maintains an **unlevered balance sheet** and ended the quarter with its **capital reaching a new all-time high**[5](index=5&type=chunk) [Segment Performance](index=3&type=section&id=Segment%20Performance) Wealth Management revenue grew from record AUM, while Capital Markets recovered strongly, narrowing its pre-tax loss due to increased investment banking and trading [Wealth Management](index=3&type=section&id=Wealth%20Management) The Wealth Management segment's revenue grew 5.1% to $246.4 million, primarily driven by a 7.2% increase in advisory fees from record-high AUM of $52.8 billion. However, pre-tax income slightly decreased by 2.2% to $62.8 million. This was due to a 7.1% rise in compensation expenses and a 9.7% increase in non-compensation expenses, coupled with a decline in bank deposit sweep income as clients moved cash to higher-yielding investments Wealth Management Segment Performance | Wealth Management ('000s) | Q2-25 | Q2-24 | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Revenue | $246,421 | $234,526 | | Pre-Tax Income | $62,834 | $64,231 | | Pre-Tax Margin | 25.5% | 27.4% | | Assets Under Management (billions) | $52.8 | $47.5 | - **Advisory Fees:** Increased **7.2%** due to higher AUM during the billing period[15](index=15&type=chunk) - **Bank Deposit Sweep Income:** Decreased by **$6.2 million** due to **lower cash sweep balances** and **lower short-term interest rates**[15](index=15&type=chunk) - **AUM:** Reached a **record high of $52.8 billion** at June 30, 2025[15](index=15&type=chunk) - Total expenses increased, with compensation expenses rising **7.1%** due to **higher production-related costs** and non-compensation expenses up **9.7%** from an increase in interest and other miscellaneous costs[15](index=15&type=chunk) [Capital Markets](index=4&type=section&id=Capital%20Markets) The Capital Markets segment demonstrated a strong recovery, with revenue increasing 33.5% to $123.0 million. The pre-tax loss significantly narrowed to $3.9 million from $21.8 million a year ago. This improvement was fueled by substantial growth across its businesses, including an 83.0% surge in investment banking advisory fees, a 115.3% rise in fixed income underwriting, and double-digit growth in both equities and fixed income sales and trading revenue Capital Markets Segment Performance | Capital Markets ('000s) | Q2-25 | Q2-24 | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Revenue | $122,981 | $92,141 | | Investment Banking Revenue | $43,394 | $26,699 | | Sales and Trading Revenue | $78,904 | $64,766 | | Pre-Tax Loss | $(3,864) | $(21,775) | | Pre-Tax Margin | (3.1)% | (23.6)% | - **Investment Banking:** Advisory fees increased **83.0%** due to more deal volume and larger mandates.

The effective tax rate for the quarter also decreased to 32.7% from 35.3%, benefiting from a reduced impact of certain permanent items and nondeductible foreign losses - **Compensation expense as a percentage of revenue was 64.1%** for the current period, a modest improvement from 66.8% during the same period last year[22](index=22&type=chunk) - The **effective tax rate for the current period was 32.7%**, compared with 35.3% for the prior year period[21](index=21&type=chunk)[22](index=22&type=chunk) [Consolidated Financial Statements](index=7&type=section&id=Consolidated%20Financial%20Statements) The consolidated income statement shows robust revenue growth and improved profitability, with pre-tax and net income significantly increasing from strong operations [Consolidated Income Statement](index=7&type=section&id=Consolidated%20Income%20Statement) The consolidated income statement for Q2 2025 shows a 12.9% increase in total revenue to $373.2 million, driven by strong growth in commissions, advisory fees, and investment banking.
