Citigroup is scheduled to report fourth-quarter earnings before the opening bell Friday.

Here’s what Wall Street expects:

  • Earnings: $1.34 a share, 38% lower than a year earlier, according to Refinitiv
  • Revenue: $16.7 billion, 9.1% lower than a year earlier
  • Net Interest Margin: 2.01%, according to FactSet
  • Trading Revenue: Fixed income: $2.61 billion, Equities: $697 million, according to FactSet

Citigroup made history when it announced Jane Fraser was taking over as CEO, making it the first big Wall Street bank to be run by a woman.

Now, weeks before she’s set to take over for Mike Corbat, Fraser is expected to address investors and analysts for the first time on Friday. Shareholders are keen to hear how Fraser, a former McKinsey partner who ran the bank’s Latin American operations before becoming president in 2019, will improve returns at the company.

Citigroup, the third-biggest U.S. bank by assets, has been hobbled by relatively poor performance compared to rivals including JPMorgan Chase, results that have frustrated investors including activist hedge fund ValueAct. The bank is also toiling under a regulatory consent order to improve its internal risk controls after it accidentally sent almost $900 million to lenders of Revlon last year.

Citigroup has said it expected fourth quarter trading revenues to climb 15% from a year earlier, while investment banking fees should climb by 10% to 15%.

Shares of the New York based bank fell 23% last year, compared to the 4.3% decline of the KBW Bank Index.
