Cash Flow & Balance Sheet (FY2024)

Metric Value
Net Income $2.063B
Return on Equity ~15–17%
Raymond James Bank Assets ~$50–55B
Sweep Cash Balances $42.9B
Total Equity ~$11–12B
Dividends + Buybacks moderate (less aggressive than Ameriprise)

Raymond James Bank holds $42.9B in client sweep deposits earning net interest spread — a significant earnings contributor that is interest-rate sensitive. Unlike Ameriprise, Raymond James runs a larger balance sheet through its bank subsidiary, generating more NII but also carrying more interest rate risk. Share repurchases are moderate; the company prefers reinvesting in advisor recruitment and organic growth.

Key Ratios (approximate)

  • P/E: ~14–15x (trailing FY2025 EPS $10.30) | P/Net Revenues: ~1.7x
  • EPS Growth: +21.7% (FY2024), +6% (FY2025) — slowing | Net margin: ~15%

Growth Profile

Raymond James has grown net revenues from ~$11.3B (FY2022) to $14.07B (FY2025) — 1.25x in 3 years — with EPS growing faster at 15%+ CAGR as operating leverage and buybacks amplify per-share growth. The FY2025 EPS growth slowdown to 6% (vs. 21.7% in FY2024) reflects the plateau in interest rate tailwinds (NII benefits moderating as rates cut). The investment banking recovery (+20% in FY2025) is a new growth engine. $60B+/year in recruited net new assets is the structural flywheel that ensures AUM-based fee growth regardless of market direction.

Forward Estimates

  • FY2026: Net revenues ~$15–15.5B; EPS ~$11.70 (consensus) to $12.55 (bull)
  • Client assets: tracking toward $1.8–2.0T
  • Investment banking: recovering mid-market M&A cycle
  • Analyst avg PT: ~$183 (range $173–$196; 11 analysts; Hold consensus)
  • Current ~$143–145/share; 27% implied upside to avg PT
