Stifel Investor Presentation
Exhibit 99.1


Disclaimer
Forward-Looking
Statements
This
presentation
may
contain
“forward-looking
statements”
within
the
meaning
of
the
Private
Securities
Litigation
Reform
Act
of
1995
that
involve
significant
risks,
assumptions,
and
uncertainties,
including
statements
relating
to
the
market
opportunity
and
future
business
prospects
of
Stifel
Financial
Corp.,
as
well
as
Stifel,
Nicolaus
&
Company,
Incorporated
and
its
subsidiaries
(collectively,
“SF”
or
the
“Company”).
These
statements
can
be
identified
by
the
use
of
the
words
“may,”
“will,”
“should,”
“could,”
“would,”
“plan,”
“potential,”
“estimate,”
“project,”
“believe,”
“intend,”
“anticipate,”
“expect,”
and
similar
expressions.
In
particular,
these
statements
may
refer
to
our
goals,
intentions,
and
expectations,
our
business
plans
and
growth
strategies,
our
ability
to
integrate
and
manage
our
acquired
businesses,
estimates
of
our
risks
and
future
costs
and
benefits,
and
forecasted
demographic
and
economic
trends
relating
to
our
industry.
You
should
not
place
undue
reliance
on
any
forward-looking
statements,
which
speak
only
as
of
the
date
they
were
made.
We
will
not
update
these
forward-looking
statements,
even
though
our
situation
may
change
in
the
future,
unless
we
are
obligated
to
do
so
under
federal
securities
laws.
Actual
results
may
differ
materially
and
reported
results
should
not
be
considered
as
an
indication
of
future
performance.
Factors
that
could
cause
actual
results
to
differ
are
included
in
the
Company’s
annual
and
quarterly
reports
and
from
time
to
time
in
other
reports
filed
by
the
Company
with
the
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
and
include,
among
other
things,
changes
in
general
economic
and
business
conditions,
actions
of
competitors,
regulatory
and
legal
actions,
changes
in
legislation,
and
technology
changes.
Note
Regarding
the
Use
of
Non-GAAP
Financial
Measures
The
Company
utilized
non-GAAP
calculations
of
presented
net
revenues,
compensation
and
benefits,
non-compensation
operating
expenses,
income
before
income
taxes,
provision
for
income
taxes,
net
income,
compensation
and
non-compensation
operating
expense
ratios,
pre-tax
margin
and
diluted
earnings
per
share
as
an
additional
measure
to
aid
in
understanding
and
analyzing
the
Company’s
financial
results.
Specifically,
the
Company
believes
that
the
non-GAAP
measures
provide
useful
information
by
excluding
certain
items
that
may
not
be
indicative
of
the
Company’s
core
operating
results
and
business
outlook.
The
Company
believes
that
these
non-GAAP
measures
will
allow
for
a
better
evaluation
of
the
operating
performance
of
the
business
and
facilitate
a
meaningful
comparison
of
the
Company’s
results
in
the
current
period
to
those
in
prior
periods
and
future
periods.
Reference
to
these
non-GAAP
measures
should
not
be
considered
as
a
substitute
for
results
that
are
presented
in
a
manner
consistent
with
GAAP.
These
non-GAAP
measures
are
provided
to
enhance
the
overall
understanding
of
the
Company’s
current
financial
performance.
