 Net income per diluted share increases 17 percent to $0.83 for the quarter, including $0.16
                            of non-recurring separation costs
               Adjusted earnings per diluted share increase 5 percent to $0.99



MINNEAPOLIS – October 24, 2007 – Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (NYSE: AMP) today reported net
income of $198 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, an increase of 14 percent from
net income of $174 million for the year-ago quarter. Adjusted earnings increased 3 percent to $237
million in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the third quarter of 2006. Adjusted earnings
exclude after-tax non-recurring separation costs.

Net income per diluted share for the third quarter of 2007 was $0.83, an increase of 17 percent
from the prior year period. Adjusted earnings per diluted share for the third quarter of 2007 were
$0.99, an increase of 5 percent from the year-ago period.

Revenues grew 11 percent to $2.2 billion in the third quarter of 2007, reflecting continued strong
growth of fee-based businesses, including 22 percent growth in management, financial advice and
service fees, 17 percent growth in distribution fees, and higher net investment income from
variable annuity-related hedges.

Return on equity for the 12 months ended September 30, 2007 was 9.4 percent, or 12.4 percent
when adjusted for the separation, an increase from 11.2 percent from a year ago.

“Our operating results demonstrate the strength and diversity of our business model,” said Jim
Cracchiolo, chairman and chief executive officer. “Despite the turbulent market conditions during
the quarter, we delivered solid growth in revenue, assets and advisor productivity and continue to
maintain a high quality balance sheet.”
Third Quarter 2007 Summary

Management believes that the presentation of adjusted financial measures best reflects the
underlying performance of our ongoing operations. The adjusted financial measures exclude non-
recurring separation costs from all periods. This presentation is consistent with the non-GAAP
financial information presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for year-end 2006, filed on
February 27, 2007 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The fourth quarter of 2007 will
mark the final quarter for recognizing separation-related costs.

Included in consolidated net income and adjusted earnings for the third quarter of 2007 and 2006
were pretax net realized investment gains from Available-for-Sale securities of $15 million and $14
million, respectively.

As part of our annual detailed review of deferred acquisition cost (DAC) valuation assumptions
(DAC unlocking), we reported a $30 million negative impact to pretax income in the third quarter of
2007, compared to a $25 million benefit in the prior-year period.




                                                                                                               2
Third Quarter 2007 Consolidated Highlights

We continued to drive improvements in the profitability and productivity of our distribution network:

           Mass affluent and affluent client groups increased 11 percent from the year-ago period,
           with high rates of financial planning penetration for newly acquired clients in this core
           group.

           Gross Dealer Concession (GDC) increased 14 percent from the year-ago period,
           reflecting continued strong advisor productivity gains.

           The number of total advisors was 12,003, down 3 percent, as we continue to re-
           engineer the platform to strengthen employee advisor productivity and distribution
           economics. However, the number of franchisee advisors was 7,712, up 2 percent,
           reflecting continued strong franchisee advisor retention rates.

We successfully grew client assets:

           Owned, managed and administered assets increased 12 percent from the prior-year
           period, reaching $492 billion at September 30, 2007.

           Wrap account total ending assets increased 33 percent to $93 billion, including more
           than $2.6 billion of net inflows during the quarter.

           Active Portfolios®, our new discretionary wrap platform, accumulated more than $2.2
           billion in ending assets since its launch in February 2007.

           RiverSource® Funds achieved net inflows of $0.4 billion from mutual funds and annuity
           variable accounts, with sales of long-term mutual funds increasing 84 percent compared
           to the prior-year period.

           Strong sales in the Ameriprise and third party channels helped drive $1.3 billion in net
           inflows in annuity variable accounts. Overall annuity net inflows of $0.3 billion were
           impacted by continued net outflows from annuity fixed accounts.

           Threadneedle Investments announced its acquisition of Convivo Capital Management,
           which further strengthens its alternative investment capabilities.

           Life insurance in-force increased 8 percent year-over-year to $184 billion.

We completed our separation from American Express on budget and on schedule.

Third Quarter 2007 Consolidated Results

Net income grew 14 percent to $198 million. Adjusted earnings grew 3 percent to $237 million,
compared to the year-ago quarter. Our underlying business results continue to reflect the benefits
of our diversified business model, strong growth in fee-based products and expense controls.

There were a number of material disclosed items in both the third quarters of 2007 and 2006. In
total, these items positively impacted net income and adjusted earnings by $5 million in the third
quarter of 2007 compared to $38 million in the third quarter of 2006.


Revenues

Consolidated revenues rose 11 percent, or $225 million, to $2.2 billion, reflecting continued strong
growth in management and distribution fees, combined with above trend growth in net investment
income, primarily from variable annuity-related hedges.

Management, financial advice and service fees grew 22 percent, or $158 million, to $878 million,
reflecting continued success in growing assets in fee-based accounts. Wrap account balances
grew 33 percent and annuity variable account assets grew 31 percent year-over-year. These
balances were driven by strong net inflows and market appreciation.

Distribution fees increased 17 percent, or $52 million, to $352 million. Underlying business activity
was strong, with total cash sales increasing 21 percent over the prior-year period.

Net investment income increased 2 percent, or $10 million, to $552 million, reflecting higher net
investment income attributable to hedges for variable annuity living benefits, partially offset by
expected declines in annuity fixed account and certificate balances. Negative investment income
on trading securities was offset by a decrease in the loan loss provision for commercial real estate
loans.

Premiums grew 1 percent, or $2 million, to $246 million. Year-over-year growth in our Auto and
Home business was offset by declines in long-term care premiums.

Other revenues increased 2 percent, or $3 million, to $174 million, primarily due to higher fees from
variable annuity riders and cost of insurance for variable universal life/universal life insurance,
which were largely offset by lower other revenues on certain consolidated limited partnerships.


Expenses

Consolidated expenses before separation costs rose 15 percent, or $252 million, to $1.9 billion,
primarily driven by higher field compensation due to business growth, the year-over-year impact of
DAC unlocking and by benefit expense increases related to variable annuity living benefit riders.
The higher benefit expenses were partially offset by the increase in net investment income from
related hedges and lower amortization of DAC related to these products.

Compensation and benefits – Non-field and Other expenses combined increased less than 1
percent, or $5 million, to $581 million, year-over-year. This reflects our focus on expense
management across multiple quarters to drive pretax income margin expansion.

Compensation and benefits – Field increased 22 percent, or $94 million, to $522 million, due to
overall business growth and continued increases in advisor productivity.

                                                                                                        5
Interest credited to account values declined 11 percent, or $35 million, to $282 million, reflecting
continued declines in annuity fixed account and certificate balances.

Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses increased 64 percent, or $150 million, to $383
million. Growth was primarily driven by expenses from the mark-to-market of variable annuity living
benefit riders, which was partially offset by higher net investment income and a decline in DAC
amortization.

Amortization of deferred acquisition costs rose 47 percent, or $41 million, to $128 million, primarily
driven by a $16 million increase in the third quarter of 2007 compared to a $38 million decrease in
the prior-year period, resulting in a net $54 million increase in amortization from our annual third
quarter detailed review. Underlying increases in DAC amortization driven by business growth were
offset by lower DAC amortization resulting from the mark-to-market of variable annuity living benefit
riders.

We incurred $60 million in separation costs in the quarter and expect to incur approximately
$25-30 million in costs in the fourth quarter of 2007, reflecting all remaining separation costs.


Taxes

The effective tax rate on net income was 8.8 percent for the quarter, down from 19.8 percent in the
prior-year period. The effective tax rate on adjusted earnings was 14.4 percent for the quarter and
21.7 percent year-to-date. The current quarter included a $21 million tax benefit resulting from our
plan to begin repatriating Threadneedle earnings through dividends as a result of their continued
strong results. We expect the full year 2007 effective tax rate on adjusted earnings to be
approximately 23 percent, compared to 25.2 percent for full year 2006. We expect the 2008
effective tax rate to be approximately 26 to 27 percent.


Balance Sheet and Capital

We maintain a very strong, high quality balance sheet. During the third quarter of 2007, we
repurchased 2.9 million shares for approximately $171 million. Year-to-date as of September
30, 2007, we repurchased 11.1 million shares for approximately $665 million, leaving
approximately $701 million remaining under our current share repurchase authorization. The
weighted average basic share count for the third quarter of 2007 was 235.4 million, down
from 244.5 million for the third quarter of 2006. The weighted average diluted share count for
the third quarter of 2007 was 239.2 million, down from 246.4 million for the third quarter of
2006.

Our commitment to maintain the safety and soundness of our balance sheet is reflected in
substantial liquidity, a high quality investment portfolio, low financial leverage and our
continuing actions to manage and mitigate risk exposures.

        Cash and cash equivalents were approximately $4.0 billion at September 30, 2007.

        Our investment portfolio remains high quality.

           o   We recognized no impairments in the quarter.

           o   We experienced no rating downgrades in our Alt-A or subprime-related
               securities.

                                                                                                       6
o    Unrealized net investment losses in the Available-for-Sale investment portfolio
                       were $0.4 billion at quarter end, down from $0.6 billion in the prior quarter.

            The debt to capital ratio as of September 30, 2007 was 22.1 percent. The debt to
            capital ratio excluding non-recourse debt and with 75 percent equity credit for the
            hybrid securities was 16.7 percent. For the third quarter of 2007, the ratio of earnings
            to fixed charges was 6.2 times. Excluding interest on non-recourse debt, the ratio of
            earnings to fixed charges was 6.7 times.

Third Quarter 2007 Segment Results

The AA&I segment reported pretax income growth of 35 percent, or $67 million, to $259 million,
primarily due to strong wrap and variable annuity inflows, strong advisor cash sales, and market
appreciation, reflected in 20 percent growth in fees. Revenues and expenses in this segment
include the negative impact of the mark-to-market on variable annuity benefit riders, related
hedges, and amortization of DAC. DAC unlocking had an immaterial impact on AA&I segment
results in the quarter. The segment represented 74 percent of consolidated revenues and 94
percent of pretax adjusted earnings.

The Protection segment reported a pretax income decline of 52 percent, or $78 million, to $73
million, primarily due to a net $70 million year-over-year negative impact from the annual DAC
unlocking. The increased amortization of DAC in the quarter was primarily due to changes in
product persistency assumptions and does not reflect any fundamental deterioration of the
business. Overall, Protection segment results reflect an increase in insurance in-force and claims


                                                                                                                                              7
meeting expectations. The Protection segment represented 24 percent of consolidated revenues
and 26 percent of pretax adjusted earnings.

The Corporate segment pretax loss improved $11 million to $115 million. Adjusted for non-
recurring separation costs, the pretax loss increased $16 million to $55 million. Corporate segment
revenue increased 16 percent, or $9 million, primarily reflecting higher advice fees.

      Adjusted return on equity calculated using adjusted earnings (income excluding non-recurring separation costs) in the numerator,
      and equity excluding equity allocated to expected non-recurring separation costs as of the last day of the preceding four quarters and
      the current quarter in the denominator.

Return on equity calculations use the trailing twelve months' return, and equity calculated using a five point average of
quarter-end equity.

      Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges is a ratio comprised of earnings divided by fixed charges. Earnings are defined as income before
      income tax provision, plus interest and debt expense, interest portion of rental expense, amortization of capitalized interest and
      adjustments related to equity investments and minority interests in consolidated entities. Fixed charges are defined as interest and
      debt expense, the interest portion of rental expense and capitalized interest. The ratio is also presented excluding the effect of
      interest on non-recourse debt of a Collateralized Debt Obligation consolidated in accordance with FIN 46(R).

  • 1. News Release Ameriprise Financial Reports Third Quarter 2007 Earnings Net income per diluted share increases 17 percent to $0.83 for the quarter, including $0.16 of non-recurring separation costs Adjusted earnings per diluted share increase 5 percent to $0.99 MINNEAPOLIS – October 24, 2007 – Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (NYSE: AMP) today reported net income of $198 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, an increase of 14 percent from net income of $174 million for the year-ago quarter. Adjusted earnings increased 3 percent to $237 million in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the third quarter of 2006. Adjusted earnings exclude after-tax non-recurring separation costs. Net income per diluted share for the third quarter of 2007 was $0.83, an increase of 17 percent from the prior year period. Adjusted earnings per diluted share for the third quarter of 2007 were $0.99, an increase of 5 percent from the year-ago period. Revenues grew 11 percent to $2.2 billion in the third quarter of 2007, reflecting continued strong growth of fee-based businesses, including 22 percent growth in management, financial advice and service fees, 17 percent growth in distribution fees, and higher net investment income from variable annuity-related hedges. Return on equity for the 12 months ended September 30, 2007 was 9.4 percent, or 12.4 percent when adjusted for the separation, an increase from 11.2 percent from a year ago. “Our operating results demonstrate the strength and diversity of our business model,” said Jim Cracchiolo, chairman and chief executive officer. “Despite the turbulent market conditions during the quarter, we delivered solid growth in revenue, assets and advisor productivity and continue to maintain a high quality balance sheet.”
  • 2. Third Quarter 2007 Summary Management believes that the presentation of adjusted financial measures best reflects the underlying performance of our ongoing operations. The adjusted financial measures exclude non- recurring separation costs from all periods. This presentation is consistent with the non-GAAP financial information presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for year-end 2006, filed on February 27, 2007 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The fourth quarter of 2007 will mark the final quarter for recognizing separation-related costs. Ameriprise Financial, Inc. Third Quarter Summary % Per Diluted Share % (in millions, unaudited) 2007 2006 Change 2007 2006 Change Net income $ 198 $ 174 14% $ 0.83 $ 0.71 17 % Add: Separation costs, after-tax 39 57 (32) 0.16 0.23 (30) Adjusted earnings, after-tax $ 237 $ 231 3% $ 0.99 $ 0.94 5% Included in consolidated net income and adjusted earnings for the third quarter of 2007 and 2006 were pretax net realized investment gains from Available-for-Sale securities of $15 million and $14 million, respectively. As part of our annual detailed review of deferred acquisition cost (DAC) valuation assumptions (DAC unlocking), we reported a $30 million negative impact to pretax income in the third quarter of 2007, compared to a $25 million benefit in the prior-year period. 2
  • 3. Third Quarter 2007 Consolidated Highlights We continued to drive improvements in the profitability and productivity of our distribution network: Mass affluent and affluent client groups increased 11 percent from the year-ago period, with high rates of financial planning penetration for newly acquired clients in this core group. Gross Dealer Concession (GDC) increased 14 percent from the year-ago period, reflecting continued strong advisor productivity gains. The number of total advisors was 12,003, down 3 percent, as we continue to re- engineer the platform to strengthen employee advisor productivity and distribution economics. However, the number of franchisee advisors was 7,712, up 2 percent, reflecting continued strong franchisee advisor retention rates. We successfully grew client assets: Owned, managed and administered assets increased 12 percent from the prior-year period, reaching $492 billion at September 30, 2007. Wrap account total ending assets increased 33 percent to $93 billion, including more than $2.6 billion of net inflows during the quarter. Active Portfolios®, our new discretionary wrap platform, accumulated more than $2.2 billion in ending assets since its launch in February 2007. RiverSource® Funds achieved net inflows of $0.4 billion from mutual funds and annuity variable accounts, with sales of long-term mutual funds increasing 84 percent compared to the prior-year period. Strong sales in the Ameriprise and third party channels helped drive $1.3 billion in net inflows in annuity variable accounts. Overall annuity net inflows of $0.3 billion were impacted by continued net outflows from annuity fixed accounts. Threadneedle Investments announced its acquisition of Convivo Capital Management, which further strengthens its alternative investment capabilities. Life insurance in-force increased 8 percent year-over-year to $184 billion. We completed our separation from American Express on budget and on schedule. 3

  • 5. Third Quarter 2007 Consolidated Results Net income grew 14 percent to $198 million. Adjusted earnings grew 3 percent to $237 million, compared to the year-ago quarter. Our underlying business results continue to reflect the benefits of our diversified business model, strong growth in fee-based products and expense controls. There were a number of material disclosed items in both the third quarters of 2007 and 2006. In total, these items positively impacted net income and adjusted earnings by $5 million in the third quarter of 2007 compared to $38 million in the third quarter of 2006. Revenues Consolidated revenues rose 11 percent, or $225 million, to $2.2 billion, reflecting continued strong growth in management and distribution fees, combined with above trend growth in net investment income, primarily from variable annuity-related hedges. Management, financial advice and service fees grew 22 percent, or $158 million, to $878 million, reflecting continued success in growing assets in fee-based accounts. Wrap account balances grew 33 percent and annuity variable account assets grew 31 percent year-over-year. These balances were driven by strong net inflows and market appreciation. Distribution fees increased 17 percent, or $52 million, to $352 million. Underlying business activity was strong, with total cash sales increasing 21 percent over the prior-year period. Net investment income increased 2 percent, or $10 million, to $552 million, reflecting higher net investment income attributable to hedges for variable annuity living benefits, partially offset by expected declines in annuity fixed account and certificate balances. Negative investment income on trading securities was offset by a decrease in the loan loss provision for commercial real estate loans. Premiums grew 1 percent, or $2 million, to $246 million. Year-over-year growth in our Auto and Home business was offset by declines in long-term care premiums. Other revenues increased 2 percent, or $3 million, to $174 million, primarily due to higher fees from variable annuity riders and cost of insurance for variable universal life/universal life insurance, which were largely offset by lower other revenues on certain consolidated limited partnerships. Expenses Consolidated expenses before separation costs rose 15 percent, or $252 million, to $1.9 billion, primarily driven by higher field compensation due to business growth, the year-over-year impact of DAC unlocking and by benefit expense increases related to variable annuity living benefit riders. The higher benefit expenses were partially offset by the increase in net investment income from related hedges and lower amortization of DAC related to these products. Compensation and benefits – Non-field and Other expenses combined increased less than 1 percent, or $5 million, to $581 million, year-over-year. This reflects our focus on expense management across multiple quarters to drive pretax income margin expansion. Compensation and benefits – Field increased 22 percent, or $94 million, to $522 million, due to overall business growth and continued increases in advisor productivity. 5
  • 6. Interest credited to account values declined 11 percent, or $35 million, to $282 million, reflecting continued declines in annuity fixed account and certificate balances. Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses increased 64 percent, or $150 million, to $383 million. Growth was primarily driven by expenses from the mark-to-market of variable annuity living benefit riders, which was partially offset by higher net investment income and a decline in DAC amortization. Amortization of deferred acquisition costs rose 47 percent, or $41 million, to $128 million, primarily driven by a $16 million increase in the third quarter of 2007 compared to a $38 million decrease in the prior-year period, resulting in a net $54 million increase in amortization from our annual third quarter detailed review. Underlying increases in DAC amortization driven by business growth were offset by lower DAC amortization resulting from the mark-to-market of variable annuity living benefit riders. We incurred $60 million in separation costs in the quarter and expect to incur approximately $25-30 million in costs in the fourth quarter of 2007, reflecting all remaining separation costs. Taxes The effective tax rate on net income was 8.8 percent for the quarter, down from 19.8 percent in the prior-year period. The effective tax rate on adjusted earnings was 14.4 percent for the quarter and 21.7 percent year-to-date. The current quarter included a $21 million tax benefit resulting from our plan to begin repatriating Threadneedle earnings through dividends as a result of their continued strong results. We expect the full year 2007 effective tax rate on adjusted earnings to be approximately 23 percent, compared to 25.2 percent for full year 2006. We expect the 2008 effective tax rate to be approximately 26 to 27 percent. Balance Sheet and Capital We maintain a very strong, high quality balance sheet. During the third quarter of 2007, we repurchased 2.9 million shares for approximately $171 million. Year-to-date as of September 30, 2007, we repurchased 11.1 million shares for approximately $665 million, leaving approximately $701 million remaining under our current share repurchase authorization. The weighted average basic share count for the third quarter of 2007 was 235.4 million, down from 244.5 million for the third quarter of 2006. The weighted average diluted share count for the third quarter of 2007 was 239.2 million, down from 246.4 million for the third quarter of 2006. Our commitment to maintain the safety and soundness of our balance sheet is reflected in substantial liquidity, a high quality investment portfolio, low financial leverage and our continuing actions to manage and mitigate risk exposures. Cash and cash equivalents were approximately $4.0 billion at September 30, 2007. Our investment portfolio remains high quality. o We recognized no impairments in the quarter. o We experienced no rating downgrades in our Alt-A or subprime-related securities. 6
  • 7. o Unrealized net investment losses in the Available-for-Sale investment portfolio were $0.4 billion at quarter end, down from $0.6 billion in the prior quarter. The debt to capital ratio as of September 30, 2007 was 22.1 percent. The debt to capital ratio excluding non-recourse debt and with 75 percent equity credit for the hybrid securities was 16.7 percent. For the third quarter of 2007, the ratio of earnings to fixed charges was 6.2 times. Excluding interest on non-recourse debt, the ratio of earnings to fixed charges was 6.7 times.

Third Quarter 2007 Segment Results The AA&I segment reported pretax income growth of 35 percent, or $67 million, to $259 million, primarily due to strong wrap and variable annuity inflows, strong advisor cash sales, and market appreciation, reflected in 20 percent growth in fees. Revenues and expenses in this segment include the negative impact of the mark-to-market on variable annuity benefit riders, related hedges, and amortization of DAC. DAC unlocking had an immaterial impact on AA&I segment results in the quarter. The segment represented 74 percent of consolidated revenues and 94 percent of pretax adjusted earnings. The Protection segment reported a pretax income decline of 52 percent, or $78 million, to $73 million, primarily due to a net $70 million year-over-year negative impact from the annual DAC unlocking. The increased amortization of DAC in the quarter was primarily due to changes in product persistency assumptions and does not reflect any fundamental deterioration of the business. Overall, Protection segment results reflect an increase in insurance in-force and claims 7
  • 8. meeting expectations. The Protection segment represented 24 percent of consolidated revenues and 26 percent of pretax adjusted earnings. The Corporate segment pretax loss improved $11 million to $115 million. Adjusted for non- recurring separation costs, the pretax loss increased $16 million to $55 million. Corporate segment revenue increased 16 percent, or $9 million, primarily reflecting higher advice fees. ____ Ameriprise Financial, Inc. is a leading financial planning and services company with more than 12,000 financial advisors and registered representatives that provides solutions for clients’ asset accumulation, income management and insurance protection needs.
