PIPRPIPER SANDLER COMPANIES Oct 27, 8:03 AM ET

Piper Sandler Q3 GAAP profit falls 73% to $3.9 million; EPS $0.22

Mixed earnings Written later 2.02

Piper Sandler reported third-quarter 2023 U.S. GAAP net revenues of $289.5 million, flat from the second quarter and down 13% from a year earlier. Net income applicable to the company was $3.9 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, after a $16.4 million expense tied to a potential SEC settlement over recordkeeping, and the company declared a $0.60 quarterly dividend. Adjusted EPS of $1.76 excludes that expense, so the GAAP figures are the more direct comparison for shareholders.

GAAP net revenues of $289.5 million were flat versus Q2 2023 and down 13% versus Q3 2022.
GAAP pre-tax loss of $3.5 million, a pre-tax margin of -1.2%, compared with pre-tax income of $14.4 million in Q2 2023.
$16.4 million of non-compensation expenses relate to a potential regulatory settlement with the SEC on business communications recordkeeping.
Quarterly dividend of $0.60 per share, payable December 8, 2023, to holders of record as of November 21, 2023.

Briefs are written by AI from the filing text and can contain mistakes — open the filing before acting on anything. Impact (1-5) and tone are the AI's reading of the filing for shareholders, not a price forecast. Not investment advice.

Briefs marked “Written later” were written in November 2026 for filings that were by then more than three weeks old, so months before mid-October 2026 hold a selection: every material 8-K of the past year for the 100 largest companies we cover and the last 15 important 8-Ks of every other one. Briefs the number check holds back are not shown or counted. Also: the last 45 days, briefs by company, A–Z and the live SEC filings wire.
