TD Ameritrade Announces Secondary Offering of Common Stock

OMAHA, Neb., December 12, 2017 TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation (Nasdaq: AMTD) (the “company”) announced today that the Rodger O. Riney Family Voting Trust U/A/D 12/31/2012 (the “Riney Trust”), the Paula and Rodger Riney Foundation and the St. Louis Community Foundation, Inc. (together, the “selling stockholders”) have agreed to sell in an underwritten secondary offering (the “offering”) a total of 27,685,493 shares of the company’s common stock pursuant to the shelf registration statement (File No. 333-220513) filed by the company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 18, 2017.

TD Ameritrade previously issued to the Riney Trust 27,685,493 shares of common stock in connection with TD Ameritrade’s acquisition of Scottrade Financial Services, Inc., completed in September 2017. The Riney Trust subsequently transferred 4,545,066 shares to Rodger O. Riney, who in turn transferred 2,545,066 shares to the Paula and Rodger Riney Foundation and 2,000,000 shares to the St. Louis Community Foundation, Inc., all of which shares will be sold in the offering.

Prior to the proposed offering, the selling stockholders collectively owned 27,685,493 shares in the aggregate, representing approximately 4.9% of the company’s outstanding shares of common stock, based on the number of shares outstanding as of November 2, 2017. Upon completion of the proposed offering, the selling stockholders will no longer own any shares of the company’s common stock. TD Ameritrade is not selling any shares and will not receive any proceeds from the proposed offering.
