Goldman Sachs Reports Second Quarter Earnings Per Common Share of $6.26

“This quarter demonstrated the continued dedication of the people of Goldman Sachs to helping our clients navigate a very challenging environment, while working remotely or returning to offices that are quite different than the ones we left earlier in the year. We also continue to be grateful for those working hard to contain the pandemic and limit its human and economic costs.

Our strong financial performance across our client franchises demonstrates the inherent benefits of our diversified business model. The turbulence we have seen in recent months only reinforces our commitment to the strategy we outlined earlier this year to investors. While the economic outlook remains uncertain, I am confident that we will continue to be the firm of choice for clients around the world who are looking to reshape their businesses and rebuild a more resilient economy.”

Quarterly Net Revenue Mix by Segment

Goldman Sachs Reports

Second Quarter 2020 Earnings Results

Net Revenues


Net revenues were $13.30 billion for the second quarter of 2020, 41% higher than the second quarter of 2019 and 52% higher than the first quarter of 2020. The increase compared with the second quarter of 2019 reflected significantly higher net revenues in Global Markets and Investment Banking and higher net revenues in Consumer & Wealth Management, partially offset by lower net revenues in Asset Management. The operating environment during the quarter continued to be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in a deceleration in global economic activity and elevated market volatility. Economic indicators generally improved as the quarter progressed, following significant declines in March and April, as economies began to reopen and central banks, along with governments, continued to implement monetary easing measures and provide fiscal stimulus to support the economy. These contributed to higher global equity prices and tighter credit spreads compared with the end of the first quarter of 2020.				Net Revenues
				$13.30 billion

Investment Banking


Net revenues in Investment Banking were $2.66 billion for the second quarter of 2020, 36% higher than the second quarter of 2019 and 22% higher than the first quarter of 2020. The increase compared with the second quarter of 2019 reflected significantly higher net revenues in Underwriting, partially offset by a net loss in Corporate lending and lower net revenues in Financial advisory. The increase in Underwriting net revenues was due to significantly higher net revenues in both Equity and Debt underwriting, reflecting a significant increase in industry-wide volumes. The net loss in Corporate lending reflected the impact of changes in credit spreads on hedges related to relationship lending activities. The decrease in Financial advisory net revenues reflected a decrease in industry-wide completed mergers and acquisitions transactions. The firm’s investment banking transaction backlog³ decreased significantly compared with the end of the first quarter of 2020.	Investment Banking
	$2.66 billion
	Financial Advisory	$686 million

Global Markets


Net revenues in Global Markets were $7.18 billion for the second quarter of 2020, 93% higher than the second quarter of 2019 and 39% higher than the first quarter of 2020. Net revenues in FICC were $4.24 billion, compared with $1.70 billion in the second quarter of 2019. Net revenues in FICC intermediation were significantly higher, reflecting significantly higher net revenues across all major businesses, particularly in interest rate products, credit products and commodities. In addition, net revenues in FICC financing were significantly higher, primarily driven by repurchase agreements. Net revenues in Equities were $2.94 billion, 46% higher than the second quarter of 2019, due to significantly higher net revenues in Equities intermediation, reflecting significantly higher net revenues in both cash products and derivatives, partially offset by lower net revenues in Equities financing, reflecting lower average customer balances, tighter spreads and a decrease in dividends.

Asset Management


Net revenues in Asset Management were $2.10 billion for the second quarter of 2020, compared with $2.55 billion for the second quarter of 2019 and $(96) million for the first quarter of 2020. The decrease compared with the second quarter of 2019 reflected significantly lower net revenues in Equity investments, partially offset by significantly higher net revenues in Lending and debt investments and slightly higher Management and other fees from the firm’s institutional and third-party distribution asset management clients. Incentive fees were essentially unchanged. The decrease in Equity investments net revenues reflected significantly lower net gains from investments in private equities, partially offset by significantly higher net gains from investments in public equities. The increase in Lending and debt investments net revenues reflected significantly higher net gains as corporate credit spreads tightened during the quarter. The increase in Management and other fees reflected the impact of higher average assets under supervision, partially offset by a lower average effective fee due to shifts in the mix of client assets and strategies.

Consumer & Wealth Management


Net revenues in Consumer & Wealth Management were $1.36 billion for the second quarter of 2020, 9% higher than the second quarter of 2019 and 9% lower than the first quarter of 2020. Net revenues in Wealth management were $1.10 billion, 7% higher than the second quarter of 2019, due to higher Management and other fees (including the impact of the consolidation of GS Personal Financial Management⁵), primarily reflecting higher average assets under supervision and higher transaction volumes. Net revenues in Private banking and lending were lower, primarily reflecting lower interest rates, and Incentive fees were essentially unchanged. Net revenues in Consumer banking were $258 million, 19% higher than the second quarter of 2019, as the second quarter of 2020 included credit card loans.	Consumer & Wealth Management
	$1.36 billion
	Wealth Management	$ 1.10 billion
	Consumer Banking	$258 million

Provision for Credit Losses


Provision for credit losses was $1.59 billion for the second quarter of 2020, compared with $214 million for the second quarter of 2019 and $937 million for the first quarter of 2020. The increase compared with the second quarter of 2019 was primarily due to significantly higher provisions related to wholesale loans and, to a lesser extent, consumer loans, reflecting revisions to forecasts of expected deterioration in the broader economic environment (incorporating the accounting for credit losses under the Current Expected Credit Losses standard⁶). In addition, the increase in provisions related to wholesale loans reflected the impact of individual impairments during the quarter. The firm’s allowance for credit losses was $4.39 billion as of June 30, 2020.

Second Quarter 2020 Earnings Results

Operating Expenses


Operating expenses were $8.40 billion for the second quarter of 2020, 37% higher than the second quarter of 2019 and 30% higher than the first quarter of 2020. The firm’s efficiency ratio³ for the first half of 2020 was 67.4%, compared with 65.6% for the first half of 2019.				Operating Expenses
				$8.40 billion

The increase in operating expenses compared with the second quarter of 2019 was primarily due to significantly higher compensation and benefits expenses (reflecting significantly higher net revenues) and significantly higher net provisions for litigation and regulatory proceedings. In addition, brokerage, clearing, exchange and distribution fees were higher (reflecting an increase in activity levels) and expenses related to consolidated investments, including impairments, were higher (increase was primarily in depreciation and amortization and occupancy expenses). The second quarter of 2020 also included higher technology expenses, higher expenses related to the firm’s credit card activities and the impact of the consolidation of GS Personal Financial Management⁵. These increases were partially offset by lower travel and entertainment expenses (included in market development expenses). Net provisions for litigation and regulatory proceedings for the second quarter of 2020 were $945 million compared with $66 million for the second quarter of 2019. Headcount increased 2% compared with the end of the first quarter of 2020.				YTD Efficiency Ratio
				67.4%

Provision for Taxes


The effective income tax rate for the first half of 2020 increased to 21.9% from 10.0% for the first quarter of 2020, primarily due to a decrease in the impact of permanent tax benefits and an increase in provisions for non-deductible litigation in the first half of 2020 compared with the first quarter of 2020.				YTD Effective Tax Rate
				21.9%

Footnotes

Annualized ROE is calculated by dividing annualized net earnings applicable to common shareholders by average monthly common shareholders’ equity. Annualized ROTE is calculated by dividing annualized net earnings applicable to common shareholders by average monthly tangible common shareholders’ equity (tangible common shareholders’ equity is calculated as total shareholders’ equity less preferred stock, goodwill and identifiable intangible assets). Management believes that ROTE is meaningful because it measures the performance of businesses consistently, whether they were acquired or developed internally, and that tangible common shareholders’ equity is meaningful because it is a measure that the firm and investors use to assess capital adequacy. ROTE and tangible common shareholders’ equity are non-GAAP measures and may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

The table below presents a reconciliation of average common shareholders’ equity to average tangible common shareholders’ equity:

In the first quarter of 2020, the firm adopted ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) – Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” For further information about ASU No. 2016-13, see Note 3 “Significant Accounting Policies” in Part I, Item 1 “Financial Statements (Unaudited)” in the firm’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2020.

In the second quarter of 2020, the U.S. Federal Reserve revised the calculation of the supplementary leverage ratio to exclude U.S. Treasury securities and cash held at the U.S. Federal Reserve. The estimated impact of this change was an increase in the firm’s supplementary leverage ratio of approximately 0.8 percentage points.

Net inflows in assets under supervision for the second quarter of 2019 included $13 billion of inflows (substantially all in equity and fixed income assets) in connection with the acquisition of Rocaton Investment Advisors, which was included in the Asset Management segment.
