Citigroup C earnings Q3 2024 beat estimates
SHARE

Citigroup, one of the leading financial institutions, announced its third-quarter results on Tuesday, surpassing Wall Street expectations. The bank reported earnings per share of $1.51, higher than the expected $1.31, and revenue of $20.32 billion, beating the estimated $19.84 billion. Despite the positive financial results, Citigroup’s shares closed down 5.1% for the day.

The third-quarter net income decreased to $3.2 billion, or $1.51 per share, compared to $3.5 billion, or $1.63 per share, in the previous year. The decline in earnings was attributed to a higher cost of credit, with a net build of $315 million in Citigroup’s allowance for credit losses. Chief Financial Officer Mark Mason mentioned that the bank is observing a stabilization in loan delinquency among retail clients and remains well reserved in that area.

Revenue saw a 1% increase to $20.32 billion from $20.14 billion in the same period last year. The growth was driven by an 18% rise in banking revenue, particularly a 31% increase in investment banking and a 9% growth in wealth revenue. While equity markets revenue surged by 32%, fixed income revenue experienced a slight decline of 6%.

Since assuming the role of CEO in March 2021, Jane Fraser has focused on streamlining Citigroup by reducing its global footprint and implementing workforce reductions. Fraser emphasized the importance of the ongoing transformation efforts during the analyst call, highlighting the closure of a consent order related to anti-money laundering systems and increased investments in data quality management.

Despite a 3% decrease in net interest income to $13.4 billion due to a shrinking margin, Citigroup managed to lower expenses by 2% year over year. The company expects full-year expenses to align with the guidance of $53.5 billion to $53.8 billion, excluding certain regulatory costs.

Shares of Citigroup have surged more than 28% year-to-date, surpassing the performance of the S&P 500 and the financial sector. Other major banks, including Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase, have also exceeded earnings expectations in their third-quarter results.

In conclusion, Citigroup’s strong financial performance in the third quarter underscores the resilience of the banking sector amidst challenging market conditions. The bank’s strategic focus on transformation and cost management is expected to drive continued growth and profitability in the coming quarters.
