GAAP DILUTED EPS OF $1.20, ADJUSTED¹ EPS OF $1.32

GAAP NET REVENUES OF $1,000 MILLION, ADJUSTED NET REVENUES OF $1,064 MILLION

Interactive Brokers Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:IBKR), an automated global electronic broker, announced results for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.

Reported diluted earnings per share were $1.20 for the current quarter and $1.32 as adjusted. For the year-ago quarter, reported diluted earnings per share were $0.72 and $0.84 as adjusted.

Reported net revenues were $1,000 million for the current quarter and $1,064 million as adjusted. For the year-ago quarter, reported net revenues were $656 million and $717 million as adjusted.

Reported income before income taxes was $652 million for the current quarter and $716 million as adjusted. For the year-ago quarter, reported income before income taxes was $392 million and $453 million as adjusted.

Financial Highlights

(All comparisons are to the year-ago quarter.)

Commission revenue was unchanged at $322 million. Customer trading volume was mixed across product types with options contracts volume up 9% while futures contracts and stock share volumes were down 3% and 28%, respectively.
Net interest income increased 99% to $694 million on higher benchmark interest rates and customer credit balances.
Execution, clearing and distribution fees expenses increased 21% to $93 million driven by higher customer trading volume in options, the non-recurrence of a $3 million OCC rebate in the year-ago quarter, and a $1 million increase in market data fees, which are associated with market data revenue included in other fees and services.
General and administrative expenses increased $43 million to $85 million. The increase is largely attributable to reserves related to the previously-disclosed regulatory investigations into the use of unapproved electronic messaging and record-keeping requirements. As has been publicly reported, the SEC and CFTC are conducting an industry-wide sweep that has resulted in substantial settlements with other financial services firms.
Reported pretax profit margin was 65% for the current quarter and 67% as adjusted. For the year-ago quarter, reported pretax margin was 60% and 63% as adjusted.
Total equity of $12.7 billion.

The Interactive Brokers Group, Inc. Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.10 per share. This dividend is payable on September 14, 2023, to shareholders of record as of September 1, 2023.

Effects of Foreign Currency Diversification

In connection with our currency diversification strategy, we base our net worth in GLOBALs, a basket of 10 major currencies in which we hold our equity. In this quarter, our currency diversification strategy decreased our comprehensive earnings by $24 million, as the U.S. dollar value of the GLOBAL decreased by approximately 0.14%. The effects of the currency diversification strategy are reported as components of (1) Other Income (loss of $55 million) and (2) Other Comprehensive Income (gain of $31 million).

We define adjusted net revenues as net revenues adjusted to remove the effect of our currency diversification strategy and our net mark-to-market gains (losses) on investments².
We define adjusted income before income taxes as income before income taxes adjusted to remove the effect of our currency diversification strategy and our net mark-to-market gains (losses) on investments.
We define adjusted net income available to common stockholders as net income available for common stockholders adjusted to remove the after-tax effects attributable to IBG, Inc. of our currency diversification strategy and our mark-to-market gains (losses) on investments.
We define adjusted diluted EPS as adjusted net income available for common stockholders divided by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period.

Management believes these non-GAAP items are important measures of our financial performance because they exclude certain items that may not be indicative of our core operating results and business outlook and may be useful to investors and analysts in evaluating the operating performance of the business and facilitating a meaningful comparison of our results in the current period to those in prior and future periods. Our currency diversification strategy and our mark-to-market on investments are excluded because management does not believe they are indicative of our underlying core business performance. Adjusted net revenues, adjusted income before income taxes, adjusted net income available to common stockholders and adjusted diluted EPS should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, GAAP net revenues, income before income taxes, net income attributable to common stockholders and diluted EPS.

² Mark-to-market on investments represents the net mark-to-market gains (losses) on investments in equity securities that do not qualify for equity method accounting which are measured at fair value, on our U.S. government and municipal securities portfolio, which are typically held to maturity, and on certain other investments, including equity securities taken over by the Company from customers related to losses on margin loans.

³The income tax effect is estimated using the statutory income tax rates applicable to the Company.
