Oppenheimer Holdings reports Q3 basic EPS $2.38 vs. $1.32 last year

Reports Q3 revenue $373.4M vs. $312.7M last year. Albert Lowenthal, Chairman and CEO commented, “The Firm delivered strong operating results for the quarter in a still-resilient economic environment. During the third quarter, all major indices reached new highs, mostly spurred by the Federal Reserve’s long-awaited decision to reduce the Federal Funds rate by one half percent with the view that lower borrowing costs will slow the uptick in unemployment without rekindling higher inflation. Based on recent economic indicators, it appears that the U.S. economy is headed for a soft landing, amidst continued growth in the economy as we move into 2025.”
