For the nine months ended March 31, 2024, net income was $345.1 million, an increase of 57.0% from net income of $219.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2023. Diluted earnings per share were $5.88 for the nine months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $2.25, or 62.0%, as compared to diluted earnings per share of $3.63 for the nine months ended March 31, 2023.
“We delivered strong earnings per share and book value per share growth, driven by a 14% sequential increase in net interest income and a 5% sequential increase in non-interest income, ex-last quarter’s one-time gain on the FDIC Loan Purchase” stated Greg Garrabrants, President and Chief Executive Officer of Axos. “We generated double-digit deposit growth year-over-year and linked-quarter annualized as a result of our diversified channels across consumer and commercial banking. Despite continued cash sorting declines in our custody business, average non-interest bearing deposit balances increased 2.6% linked quarter, driven by a 7% sequential increase in the number of non-interest bearing deposit accounts.”
“Our asset-based lending at low loan-to-values credit philosophy continues to serve us well, with non-performing assets remaining relatively stable” stated Derrick Walsh, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Axos. “We continue to generate excess capital due to our strong returns and net interest margin, with a return on average common stockholders’ equity of 20.71% and a return on average assets of 1.98% in the three months ended March 31, 2024. Our strong capital position allows us to balance organic growth and opportunistic asset, business and talent acquisition with common share repurchases.”

Third Quarter Fiscal 2024 Income Statement Summary
Net income was $110.7 million and earnings per diluted common share was $1.91 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to net income of $79.9 million and earnings per diluted common share of $1.32 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Net interest income increased $62.6 million or 31.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily due to an increase in interest income from loans attributable to higher rates earned and higher average balances, partially offset by higher rates paid and higher average interest-bearing deposit balances.
The provision for credit losses was $6.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $5.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was primarily due to loan growth in the Commercial & Industrial - Non-RE portfolio and an increase in the Commercial Real Estate portfolio reflecting changes in the underlying macroeconomic variables.
Non-interest income increased to $33.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $32.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to higher advisory fee income and higher mortgage banking and servicing rights income, partially offset by a decrease in broker-dealer fee income.
Non-interest expense, comprised of various operating expenses, increased $22.2 million to $133.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $111.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to higher salaries and related costs, higher data and operational processing expenses and increased professional services expense, partially offset by a decrease in advertising and promotional expenses.
Balance Sheet Summary
Axos’ total assets increased by $2.3 billion, or 11.3%, to $22.6 billion, at March 31, 2024, from $20.3 billion at June 30, 2023, primarily due to an increase in loans. Total liabilities increased by $2.0 billion, or 10.9%, to $20.4 billion at March 31, 2024, from $18.4 billion at June 30, 2023, primarily due to an increase in deposits. Stockholders’ equity increased by $279.1 million, or 14.6%, to $2.2 billion at March 31, 2024 from $1.9 billion at June 30, 2023, primarily due to net income of $345.1 million, partially offset by purchases of common stock of $83.8 million under the share repurchase program.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), this release includes non-GAAP financial measures such as adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per diluted common share, and tangible book value per common share. Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not audited. Readers should be aware of these limitations and should be cautious as to their reliance on such measures. Although we believe the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this release enhance investors’ understanding of our business and performance, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for GAAP basis financial measures.
We define “adjusted earnings”, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net income without the after-tax impact of non-recurring acquisition-related items (including amortization of intangible assets related to acquisitions and certain gains and provisions resulting from the Company’s FDIC Loan Purchase) and other costs (unusual or non-recurring charges). Adjusted EPS, a non-GAAP financial measure, is calculated by dividing non-GAAP adjusted earnings by the average number of diluted common shares outstanding during the period. We believe the non-GAAP measures of adjusted earnings and Adjusted EPS provide useful information about Axos’ operating performance. We believe excluding the non-recurring acquisition-related costs, and other costs provides investors with an alternative understanding of Axos’ core business.
Below is a reconciliation of net income, the nearest compatible GAAP measure, to adjusted earnings and adjusted EPS (Non-GAAP) for the periods shown:

1 During the nine months ended March 31, 2024, the Company completed the purchase from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) of two performing commercial real estate and multi-family loan pools with a combined unpaid principal balance of approximately $1.25 billion at 63% of par value (the “FDIC Loan Purchase”). |
2 Other costs for the nine months ended March 31, 2023 reflect an accrual recorded in the first quarter of fiscal year 2024 as a result of an adverse legal judgement that has not been finalized. |
We define “tangible book value”, a non-GAAP financial measure, as book value adjusted for goodwill and other intangible assets. Tangible book value is calculated using common stockholders’ equity minus servicing rights, goodwill and other intangible assets. Tangible book value per common share, a non-GAAP financial measure, is calculated by dividing tangible book value by the common shares outstanding at the end of the period. We believe tangible book value per common share is useful in evaluating the Company’s capital strength, financial condition, and ability to manage potential losses.
