Business Segment Reporting Changes
Effective with the firm's quarter and fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, Raymond James Financial has reduced the number of reportable business segments from the previous eight segments to five. The change is the result of management's review of the usefulness and materiality of its historic reported business segments.
The prior reported Securities Lending segment will be combined with the Private Client Group; the prior reported Emerging Markets segment with the Capital Markets group; and the prior reported Proprietary Capital segment with the Other segment. After the effect of the changes, the resulting reportable business segments are Private Client Group, Capital Markets, Asset Management, Raymond James Bank and Other.
Historic results of the five reportable business segments will be presented on a comparable basis with new reportable segment presentation and will be available in a report on Form 8-K to be filed within 24 hours at www.sec.gov.
