Ameriprise (AMP) Down 1.5% Since Last Earnings Report: Can It Rebound?

It has been about a month since the last earnings report for Ameriprise Financial Services (AMP). Shares have lost about 1.5% in that time frame, outperforming the S&P 500.

Will the recent negative trend continue leading up to its next earnings release, or is Ameriprise due for a breakout? Before we dive into how investors and analysts have reacted as of late, let's take a quick look at its most recent earnings report in order to get a better handle on the important catalysts.

Ameriprise Beats on Q1 Earnings, Revenues Rise Y/Y

Ameriprise’s first-quarter 2022 adjusted operating earnings per share of $5.98 surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $5.93. The bottom line reflects a rise of 10% from the year-ago quarter.

Results were aided by growth in revenues and solid improvement in the AUM and assets under administration (AUA) balance. However, increase in expenses was a headwind.

After considering significant items, net income (GAAP basis) was $761 million or $6.55 per share, up from $437 million or $3.58 per share in the prior-year quarter.

Revenues Improve, Expenses Rise

On an operating basis, adjusted total net revenues were $3.6 billion, up 10% year over year. The top line lagged the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $3.7 billion. On a GAAP basis, net revenues were $3.66 billion, up 9%.

Adjusted operating expenses totaled $2.8 billion, up 11% from the prior-year quarter.

Driven by solid client flows in the Advice & Wealth and the Asset Management segments, total AUM and AUA were $1.34 trillion, up 17% year over year.

Share Repurchase Update

In the reported quarter, Ameriprise repurchased 1.4 million shares for $429 million.
