INTL FCStone Inc. Reports Fiscal Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2013 Financial Results |
Company to restate financial results for fiscal years 2012 and 2011
Reports aggregate after tax charge to earnings of $5.9 million in prior year periods
New York, NY – January 9, 2014 – INTL FCStone Inc. (the "Company"; NASDAQ: INTL) today announced its financial results for the fiscal year 2013 and fourth quarter ended September 30, 2013. Certain financial metrics discussed in this press release are non-GAAP, reflecting marked-to-market differences in the Company’s Commodity & Risk Management Services and Other segments. A reconciliation of those metrics to GAAP equivalents is provided in the table below, and further discussion of the use of non-GAAP metrics will be provided in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
Sean O’Connor, CEO of INTL FCStone Inc., stated, “Full year earnings of $12.4 million and a Return on Equity of 4% were below our targeted returns. Fiscal 2013 was a difficult year due to low interest rates, low volatility and commodity prices, increased costs of regulatory change and our exit from the physical base metals business. Nevertheless, we remained profitable in this challenging environment and continued to consolidate our position as a leading provider of financial market access to mid-market customers.
As detailed below, the Company will restate its previously filed financial statements for the years ended September 30, 2012 and 2011. These corrections resulted in an aggregate reduction in net income of $5.9 million from $57.7 million as reported to $51.8 million for the three years ended September 30, 2012."
INTL FCStone Inc. Summary Financials
Consolidated financial statements will be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K to be filed with the SEC. The Annual Report on Form 10-K will also be made available on our website at www.intlfcstone.com.

Financial Reporting Update
Overview
In connection with the preparation of its consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, the Company identified errors in the reconciliation of the Company's subsidiary INTL FCStone Markets, LLC's accounting records to its back office system which occurred in 2012, 2011 and 2010. These corrections resulted in a reduction in net income of $5.9 million for the years ended September 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010 in aggregate, from $57.7 million as reported to $51.8 million, which is in line with our announcement dated December 17, 2013. As a result, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors in conjunction with management has determined that it is necessary to restate the previously filed consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 and the unaudited consolidated financial statements included in interim reports filed for such periods.
