• Wall Street expects earnings per share (EPS) of $1.37 and revenue of approximately $6.37 billion for the upcoming quarter.
• Significant growth in net interest revenues (NIR), projected to increase by 23.7% year-over-year, is a key driver for the anticipated earnings boost.
• Schwab has consistently surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in the last four quarters, with an average beat of 6.6%.

Charles Schwab Corporation, listed on the NYSE:SCHW, is a leading financial services company offering a wide range of services including brokerage, banking, and financial advisory. As SCHW prepares to release its quarterly earnings on January 21, 2026, Wall Street anticipates an earnings per share (EPS) of $1.37 and revenue of approximately $6.37 billion.

The company's performance is expected to be driven by robust trading activity and a significant rise in net interest revenues (NIR), projected to increase by 23.7% year-over-year. This growth in NIR is a key factor in the anticipated increase in earnings and revenues compared to the previous year. Additionally, asset management fees are expected to grow, supported by strong equity markets.

In the third quarter of 2025, Schwab's earnings exceeded the Zacks Consensus Estimate, thanks to a strong asset management business and increased trading revenues. The company also benefited from higher net interest revenues and a solid number of brokerage accounts. Schwab has a history of earnings surprises, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate in the last four quarters with an average beat of 6.6%.

Financially, Schwab has a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of approximately 22.77, indicating how much investors are willing to pay per dollar of earnings. The price-to-sales ratio is about 6.94, and the enterprise value to sales ratio is around 6.83, reflecting the company's valuation relative to its sales. The earnings yield is approximately 4.39%, providing insight into the return on investment.

The company's debt-to-equity ratio is 0.56, suggesting a moderate level of debt compared to equity. However, the current ratio is 0.50, indicating potential challenges in covering short-term liabilities with short-term assets. Despite this, Schwab's strong performance in previous quarters and anticipated growth in key revenue areas position it well for the upcoming earnings release.
