Bank of America (BAC) earnings Q3 2024
SHARE

Bank of America reported better-than-expected third-quarter profit and revenue, surpassing analyst estimates with strong trading results. The company’s earnings of 81 cents per share exceeded the 77 cents forecast by analysts, while revenue of $25.49 billion also beat expectations of $25.3 billion.

The bank disclosed that net income decreased by 12% from the previous year to $6.9 billion, or 81 cents a share, due to higher provisions for loan losses and increased expenses. Despite this decline, revenue saw a modest increase of less than 1% to $25.49 billion, driven by gains in trading revenue, asset management, and investment banking fees, which offset a decrease in net interest income.

Bank of America’s shares rose slightly following the announcement. CEO Brian Moynihan has led the company since 2010, emphasizing the benefits of operating a large and diversified financial institution. The bank’s core activities of deposit-taking and lending have been scrutinized as interest rates rise, impacting interest income.

However, the third quarter showcased the bank’s success in capitalizing on heightened activity in the financial markets through its trading and advisory services, similar to competitors like JPMorgan Chase and Goldman Sachs. Fixed income trading revenue increased by 8% to $2.9 billion, surpassing estimates, while equities trading rose by 18% to $2 billion. Investment banking fees also surged by 18% to $1.40 billion.

Although net interest income declined by 2.9% year-over-year to $14.1 billion, it slightly exceeded expectations. This metric showed improvement compared to the previous quarter, signaling a positive trend moving forward. Analysts believe that Bank of America is on the path to a rebound in net interest income, contingent on future interest rate movements.

The provision for credit losses in the quarter was slightly below estimates at $1.5 billion. Competitors such as JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo have also reported strong earnings, supported by their investment banking activities. Goldman Sachs and Citigroup released their results on the same day as Bank of America, with Morgan Stanley set to disclose its earnings the following day.

In conclusion, Bank of America’s third-quarter performance exemplifies its ability to navigate challenging market conditions and capitalize on opportunities in trading and investment banking. The bank’s strategic focus on diversified revenue streams has proven beneficial, positioning it for continued growth and success in the financial industry.
