We recently reviewed Net Income (ex. Special Items) & Common Dividends for a list of 86 financial institutions in the S&P500 and made the following observations:

  • The market value of equity has been reduced by ~ 65% since 2006 (from $2.66T on 12/29/08 to $945B on 4/24/09).
  • The Financial Sector lost $173B (Net Income to Common ex. SI) in 2008 ($251B loss if Special Items are considered).
  • Over 50% of the firms (44) have lowered dividends in 2009.
  • The Financial Sector lowered Common Dividends by 68% or $41.4B ($19.9B in 2009 vs. $61.4B in 2008).
  • 20 out of 86 firms posted Net Income (ex. SI) losses in 2008, which totaled $239B.
  • 66 out of 86 firms posted Net Income (ex. SI) gains in 2008, which totaled $65.7B.
  • Analysts are projecting $69.6B in Net Income for 2009 of which $64.1B is coming from firms that did not post Net Income losses in 2008.
