⁽¹⁾ The pre-tax acquisition-related expenses associated with the pending USAA and TD Ameritrade transactions include $17 million in the fourth quarter and $25 million for the year. These expenses reduced fourth quarter and full-year earnings per share by $.01, and are primarily included in professional services expense.

⁽²⁾The pre-tax severance charges related to position eliminations in the third quarter of 2019, which reduced quarterly earnings per share by $.04, are included in compensation and benefits expense.

CEO Walt Bettinger said, “In 2019, we stayed true to our heritage of challenging the status quo to benefit individual investors and the independent advisors who serve them. Throughout the year, investor sentiment reflected a complex market environment that included ongoing global trade negotiations, the Brexit debate, and an uncertain economic outlook at home. The Federal Reserve reversed course on monetary policy, cutting the Fed Funds target three times in 2019, and the yield on 10-year Treasury notes hit a low of 1.47% before rebounding to average 2.14% for the year – leaving the rate environment significantly lower than our initial expectations. At the same time, stocks continued their steady march upward, with the S&P 500 rising 29% in the year to record levels. Both of our primary businesses contributed to core net new assets of $211.7 billion, which included record fourth quarter core net new assets of $66.2 billion and represented a

- 1 -

7% full-year organic growth rate, as well as our second consecutive year over $200 billion. Altogether, our robust asset gathering plus strong market returns drove total client assets to surpass the $4 trillion mark to a record $4.04 trillion at December 31^st, closing the year up 24%.”

“During 2019 our commitment to seeing “through clients’ eyes” prompted us to take a number of bold steps that further enhance our offer to clients and help position Schwab to build value for our stakeholders – clients, employees, and stockholders – over the long-term,” Mr. Bettinger continued. “We shared the benefits of the scale we have worked so hard to achieve and removed the final barrier to investing by eliminating commissions for stocks, ETFs, and options listed on U.S. or Canadian exchanges, across all mobile and web trading channels. We also announced two significant acquisitions. In July, we agreed to acquire certain assets of USAA’s Investment Management Company while also entering into a long-term referral arrangement. We are honored to have the opportunity to serve the financial needs of USAA members and remain on track for closing in mid-2020. In late November, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire TD Ameritrade. As we work towards a second half 2020 close and subsequent integration, our challenger mindset will guide us to ensure we leverage each organization’s strengths, including a common client-centric focus and a unique passion for breaking down barriers for investors and advisors alike.”

Mr. Bettinger concluded, “Last year we also focused on deepening our capabilities around innovative solutions and offering clients greater choice and value in meeting their investment needs. In the first quarter, we replaced Schwab Intelligent Advisory^® with Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Premium^TM, the industry’s first subscription-based, automated investing solution with unlimited access to a planning professional. In December, we took action to meet the unfilled needs of millions of Americans by introducing Schwab Intelligent Income^TM, a low-cost solution designed to offer a simple, modern way to generate income from existing investment portfolios. Additionally, in December, we lowered operating expense ratios on five fixed income ETFs, making each among the lowest OERs in their respective Morningstar categories. Last year also marked the 10^th anniversary of our first proprietary ETF. Since that launch, we’ve added 24 more ETFs and $164 billion in assets. For our independent advisor clients, we are investing in a variety of technologies to best serve firms of all sizes and complexity. Since its April release, Schwab Advisor Portfolio Connect^® – our modern portfolio management solution, available free of charge – has been delivering core capabilities and features to over 700 firms with an average AUM of $40 million. As part of our ongoing digital transformation work, we recently made enhancements to our status request experience including dynamic search functionality, more robust review capabilities, and increased flexibility to update pending requests. With these enhancements, status-related call volume has declined approximately 15% in our advisor business. Chuck Schwab, the Board, and I are all proud of the Schwab team’s many accomplishments in 2019 and we remain dedicated to helping investors reach their financial goals as we create an even stronger, more capable firm in the years ahead.”

CFO Peter Crawford commented, “We achieved impressive financial results in 2019 given the somewhat more challenging than expected macroeconomic backdrop and our own pricing decisions. We delivered a record $10.7 billion in total revenue, up 6% year-over-year, which was just shy of the range we outlined at the beginning of the year. Net interest revenue increased 12% from the prior year to $6.5 billion, driven by higher average investment yields – even after the Fed’s rate cuts – and an increase in client cash balances held at our bank and brokerage subsidiaries. While trading revenue declined 19% to $617 million due to our pricing actions, asset management and administration fees of $3.2 billion remained essentially flat year-over-year. Rising balances in third-party mutual funds, along with growing enrollment in our advisory solutions, helped to largely offset declines in Mutual Fund OneSource^® and lower money market fund revenue due to sweep transfers to our balance sheet. In response to the environment, we carefully managed our overall 2019 spending to $5.9 billion for the year, including $62 million in severance charges associated with a 3% reduction in our workforce and $25 million in costs relating to our two aforementioned acquisitions. Together, these items contributed roughly a third of our 5% overall expense growth, and we finished the year significantly below our initial 6%-7% outlook. Reflecting our commitment to balancing long-term profitability with reinvesting for growth, we achieved a record 45.2% pre-tax profit margin and a 19% return on equity for the year – our second consecutive year of at least 45% and 19%, respectively.”

Mr. Crawford added, “Disciplined balance sheet management remains core to our strategy as we continue to support business growth and meaningful capital returns across a range of conditions. We entered 2019 with a $4 billion share repurchase authorization, and through year end we had repurchased more than 55 million shares for $2.2 billion –

- 2 -

including 6.4 million shares for approximately $230 million during the fourth quarter. By month-end December, our balance sheet assets reached $294 billion, up 5% from month-end September, and down 1% from a year ago; our preliminary consolidated Tier 1 Leverage Ratio was 7.3%. As we look forward to continuing to build Schwab both organically and through our pending transactions, our intent to return excess capital above our long-term operating objective of 6.75%-7.00% remains in place. Overall, our 2019 results emphasize the enduring nature of Schwab’s financial model, which allows us to consistently invest in our capabilities and our clients while building value for stockholders through the business cycle.”

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements relating to building value for stakeholders; the company’s (i) acquisition of certain assets of USAA’s Investment Management Company (IMCO) and entering into a referral agreement with USAA and (ii) acquisition and subsequent integration of TD Ameritrade, including the timing of closing those acquisitions; balancing long-term profitability with reinvesting for growth; balance sheet management; business growth; capital returns to stockholders; and Tier 1 Leverage Ratio operating objective. Achievement of these expectations and objectives is subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the expressed expectations.

Important factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to, general market conditions, including the level of interest rates, equity valuations, and trading activity; the company’s ability to attract and retain clients and registered investment advisors and grow those relationships and client assets; competitive pressures on pricing, including deposit rates; the company’s ability to develop and launch new and enhanced products, services, and capabilities, as well as enhance its infrastructure, in a timely and successful manner; client use of the company’s advisory solutions and other products and services; client sensitivity to rates; level of client assets, including cash balances; capital and liquidity needs and management; the company’s ability to manage expenses; failure of the parties to satisfy the closing conditions in the USAA IMCO purchase agreement and the TD Ameritrade merger agreement in a timely manner or at all, including regulatory approvals, stockholder approvals (for TD Ameritrade) and the implementation of conversion plans (for USAA IMCO); and other factors set forth in the company’s most recent report on Form 10-K.
