RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC.
REPORTS THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
Unaudited net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2004 was reported at $96,912,000, up 82 percent from 2003's $53,183,000, while net revenues for the period increased 27 percent to $1,334,547,000 from $1,049,204,000 the previous year. Diluted earnings per share were $1.30 versus $0.72 for last year's comparable period.
All per share amounts have been restated to reflect the effect of the March 2004 three-for-two stock split.
"Although the results of the third quarter were not as impressive as the record levels achieved in the immediately preceding quarter, they substantially surpassed last year's comparable quarter, even though the market began its resurgence in that period. Net revenues increased 16 percent driving a 26 percent increase in net income. Except for trading revenues, which declined due to a more difficult environment for fixed income, and flat net interest income, all revenue categories contributed double-digit gains," stated Thomas A. James, chairman of the board

and chief executive officer.
"One should not lose sight of the remarkable 82 percent increase in net income for the nine-month period ended in June, based on a 27 percent increment in net revenues," he continued. "These outstanding comparisons demonstrate the power of operating leverage as revenues began to grow again after three years of static results.
"Against the incongruous background of increasing corporate profits and rising interest rates, I do not expect much change in retail transaction volume but investment banking and investment advisory revenue are still robust, auguring for a respectable fourth quarter," he concluded.
The company will conduct its quarterly conference call July 13 at 4:15 p.m. The telephone number is 800-773-5520. The call will also be available on demand on the company's Web site, www.RaymondJames.com, under "About Our Company," "Financials."
