NEW YORK, Aug. 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Marex Group Limited ((‘Marex’ or the ‘Group’, NASDAQ:MRX) a diversified global financial services platform providing market access, infrastructure services and essential liquidity to clients across commodities and financial markets, today reported the Group’s preliminary unaudited financial results for the second quarter ('Q2 2026').

Ian Lowitt, Group Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We delivered record first half revenue and profitability, with Adjusted Profit Before Tax¹ for the first six months of 2026 of $318.6m. We had a record second quarter with Adjusted Profit Before Tax¹ of $165.9m, beating our strong performance in the first quarter. We are executing on our strategic plan to create a firm that can grow sustainably across a range of market environments. In every quarter since the IPO and in all but one quarter in the last five years, we've increased Adjusted Profit Before Tax¹ from the year-earlier period. This growth trajectory has been achieved through a range of market environments as Marex's underlying structural growth has offset cyclical factors. In the second quarter we continued to expand margins, improving our Adjusted Profit Before Tax Margin¹ by 250 basis points to 23.8%, reflecting the increasing contribution from higher-margin, infrastructure-intensive businesses. Our success in broadening and deepening our franchise has enabled us to increase the business we do with our largest clients and made us more attractive to a broader set of clients. This, combined with our diversified platform, our culture and increasing levels of profitability from our recent acquisitions and healthy pipeline of future acquisitions, adds to our confidence about our ability to grow."

Basis of Preparation

As outlined above, effective July 1 2026, the Marex Group (the "Group") completed its redomiciliation from England and Wales to Bermuda, and the Marex Group Limited became the ultimate parent holding company of the Group pursuant to a statutory scheme of arrangement under English law.

Prior to July 1, 2026, the Group's parent company was Marex Group plc, a public limited company incorporated in England and Wales with its registered office at 155 Bishopsgate, London EC2M 3TQ, United Kingdom. The consolidated financial results presented in this press release, which reflect the Group’s financial performance for the first six months of the fiscal year 2026, are therefore the consolidated financial results of Marex Group plc and not Marex Group Limited.

Performance for Q2 2026

Revenue increased by $195.7m to a record $695.8m (Q2 2025: $500.1m), growing 39% year-on-year and an increase of $3.5m from the previous record quarter in Q1 2026. Growth was broad-based across all four business segments, demonstrating continued momentum across the Group’s diversified platform.

Net trading income increased by $191.5m to $394.8m (Q2 2025: $203.3m), driven by Agency and Execution (+$106.9m), Market Making (+$43.7m) and Hedging and Investment Solutions (+$37.7m). Agency and Execution benefited from continued momentum across Prime, FX and Equities. Market Making benefited from stronger performance across Metals and Energy, together with the contribution from Winterflood within Securities following completion of the acquisition in December 2025. Hedging and Investment Solutions benefited from increased client activity and continued strength in structured products.

Net commission income decreased by $5.0m to $252.1m (Q2 2025: $257.1m), principally reflecting lower Energy activity in Agency and Execution as market volumes and client demand moderated.

Net physical commodities income increased by $14.1m to $19.2m (Q2 2025: $5.1m), primarily reflecting a stronger performance in physical recycled metals within Market Making, supported by higher client demand and activity.

Net interest income decreased by $4.9m to $29.7m (Q2 2025: $34.6m). Interest income grew, reflecting higher average balances of $24.8bn (Q2 2025: $18.0bn), which more than offset a 70 bps reduction in the average Fed Funds rate. However, higher interest expense associated with the Group’s two $500m senior debt issuances, completed in May 2025 and April 2026, together with increased structured note issuance in Hedging and Investment Solutions, more than offset the increase in interest income.

Total expenses increased by $140.1m to $538.3m (Q2 2025: $398.2m), reflecting higher performance-related compensation following the strong revenue performance, continued investment in technology and infrastructure and the impact of acquisitions completed since the prior-year period, principally Hamilton Court, Winterflood and Levmet.

Compensation and benefits increased by $98.2m to $404.1m (Q2 2025: $305.9m), reflecting higher performance-related compensation and a larger workforce. Average FTE headcount increased by 31% to 3,364 (Q2 2025: 2,577), reflecting acquisitions and continued investment in front office and control and support capabilities.

Other expenses increased by $39.1m to $122.8m (Q2 2025: $83.7m), driven by the impact of acquisitions, continued investment in technology and infrastructure, and higher professional fees.

Profit Before Tax from Continuing Operations increased by $54.6m to $158.2m (Q2 2025: $103.6m), with the margin increasing to 22.7% (Q2 2025: 20.7%). The improvement reflected strong revenue growth and an increased contribution from higher-margin businesses, which more than offset higher performance-related compensation and continued investment in the business.

Profit After Tax increased by $78.6m to $155.3m (Q2 2025: $76.7m), including $35.4m from discontinued operations, comprising a $35.1m gain on the disposal of the Winterflood custody business and a $0.3m of profit after tax generated prior to completion of the sale in June 2026.

Adjusting items totalled $7.7m in Q2 2026 (Q2 2025: $2.8m), comprising $2.4m of amortization of acquired brands and customer lists, $1.5m of professional advisory and legal fees in relation to M&A activity and $3.8m of redomiciliation costs.

Adjusted Profit Before Tax¹ increased by $59.5m to a record $165.9m (Q2 2025: $106.4m), representing growth of 56% year-on-year and an increase of $13.2m from Q1 2026, the previous record quarter. Adjusted Profit Before Tax Margin¹ increased to 23.8% (Q2 2025: 21.3%), reflecting strong revenue growth and the increased contribution from higher-margin, infrastructure-intensive businesses.

Summary Financial Results

Performance for H1 2026

Revenue increased by $420.7m to a record $1,388.1m (H1 2025: $967.4m), representing growth of 43% year-on-year. The first half comprised two record quarters delivered in different market environments. Q1 benefited from exceptional market activity and volatility, while Q2 delivered a further record despite more moderated market conditions, supported by sequential growth in Agency and Execution and Clearing.

Net trading income more than doubled, increasing by $364.7m to $727.1m (H1 2025: $362.4m), driven by Agency and Execution, Market Making and Hedging and Investment Solutions. Net commission income increased by $40.0m to $547.8m (H1 2025: $507.8m), driven by Clearing and Agency and Execution, particularly Equities, partially offset by lower Energy activity in Agency and Execution during the second quarter.

Net interest income decreased by $17.4m to $70.6m (H1 2025: $88.0m). Interest income grew, reflecting higher average balances of $23.5bn (H1 2025: $17.6bn), which more than offset a 70 bps reduction in the average Fed Funds rate. However, higher interest expense related to the Group’s two $500m senior debt issuances, completed in May 2025 and April 2026, together with increased structured note issuance in Hedging and Investment Solutions, brought net interest income lower overall.

Total expenses increased by $305.9m to $1,077.5m (H1 2025: $771.6m), reflecting higher performance-related compensation following the strong revenue performance, continued investment in technology and infrastructure and the impact of recent acquisitions, principally Aarna, Hamilton Court, Agrinvest, Winterflood and Levmet. Average FTE headcount increased by 33% to 3,347 (H1 2025: 2,522).

Profit Before Tax from Continuing Operations increased by $106.4m to $308.0m (H1 2025: $201.6m), with the margin increasing to 22.2% (H1 2025: 20.8%). The improvement reflected strong revenue growth and an increased contribution from higher-margin businesses.

Adjusting items totalled $10.6m in H1 2026 (H1 2025: $1.1m), comprising amortization of acquired brands and customer lists, costs in relation to M&A activity and redomiciliation costs. Adjusted Profit Before Tax¹ increased by $115.9m to a record $318.6m (H1 2025: $202.7m), representing growth of 57% year-on-year. Adjusted Profit Before Tax Margin¹ increased to 23.0% (H1 2025: 21.0%), reflecting strong revenue growth and the increased contribution from higher-margin, infrastructure-intensive businesses.

Financial Review

Segmental performance

Clearing

Marex provides Clearing services across the full range of commodity and financial markets. We act as principal for our clients and provide direct access to more than 60 exchanges globally.

Performance for Q2 2026

Revenue increased by $22.5m to $161.3m (Q2 2025: $138.8m), driven primarily by higher net interest income from increased average client balances.

Net commission income increased marginally by $0.9m to $72.4m (Q2 2025: $71.5m), while the prior-year period benefited from elevated client activity following the April 2025 tariff announcements.

Net interest income increased by $18.4m to $77.5m (Q2 2025: $59.1m), driven by record average client balances of $19.1bn (Q2 2025: $12.8bn). Balance growth reflected structural growth from existing and new clients, alongside increased activity from some of our larger trading clients and higher margin requirements. This more than offset the 70 bps reduction in average Fed Funds rates year-on-year.

Net trading income increased by $3.2m to $11.4m (Q2 2025: $8.2m), reflecting strong performance across the segment.

Adjusted Profit Before Tax¹ increased by $8.7m to $79.2m (Q2 2025: $70.5m). Adjusted Profit Before Tax Margin¹ decreased to 49.1% in Q2 2026 (Q2 2025: 50.8%). Front office costs increased by $11.0m to $56.3m (Q2 2025: $45.3m), due to higher performance-related pay and a larger front office workforce. Average front office headcount increased to 294 (Q2 2025: 279), reflecting continued investment in geographic expansion and product capabilities.

Performance for H1 2026

Revenue increased by $40.5m to $298.5m (H1 2025: $258.0m), driven by higher net commission income and net interest income, partially offset by the impact of the client default in the first quarter.

Net commission income increased by $21.2m to $160.5m (H1 2025: $139.3m), reflecting heightened client activity and volatility during the first quarter, particularly across Energy and Metals, together with continued client onboarding and growth across Asia and the Middle East. Activity moderated during the second quarter, following the exceptional levels experienced in Q1 2026.

Net interest income increased by $37.5m to $145.0m (H1 2025: $107.5m), reflecting higher average client balances of $17.6bn (H1 2025: $12.4bn). The increase reflected structural growth in balances from existing and new clients, alongside increased activity from some of our larger trading clients and higher margin requirements, more than offsetting lower average Fed Funds rates.

Net trading income decreased by $18.2m to a loss of $7.0m (H1 2025: $11.2m). This includes the impact of a default from a natural gas client, recognized across both trading income ($28.2m) and credit loss provisions ($5.7m). The loss arose from an idiosyncratic event during a period of exceptional volatility. The impact of the default was partly offset by lower performance-related compensation across the front office and control and support functions.

Adjusted Profit Before Tax¹ increased by $10.1m to $137.2m (H1 2025: $127.1m), with Adjusted Profit Before Tax Margin¹ decreasing to 46.0% (H1 2025: 49.3%) primarily reflecting the impact of the client default.

Performance for Q2 2026

Revenue increased by $90.2m to $351.0m (Q2 2025: $260.8m), driven by continued momentum across Securities, partially offset by lower Energy revenue.

Securities revenue increased by $113.9m to a record $282.5m (Q2 2025: $168.6m), reflecting strong growth across Prime, FX and Equities. Prime revenue increased by $58.9m to a record $120.0m (Q2 2025: $61.1m), supported by strong client demand, deeper institutional relationships and continued momentum in securities-based swaps. FX revenue increased by $43.7m to $51.5m (Q2 2025: $7.8m), primarily reflecting the contribution from Hamilton Court following completion of the acquisition in July 2025. Equities revenue increased by $17.4m to $67.6m (Q2 2025: $50.2m), driven by client growth and continued momentum across equity derivatives and securities financing. This growth was partially offset by lower Credit revenue, reflecting lower client activity and transaction volumes in a subdued credit market, while Rates revenue was broadly stable.

Energy revenue decreased by $27.4m to $64.6m (Q2 2025: $92.0m), reflecting lower market volumes and client activity as conditions normalized from the record levels experienced in Q1 2026, with exchange based volumes also impacted by the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. The prior-year period benefited from heightened activity and significant volumes across the larger desks following the April 2025 tariff announcements.

Adjusted Profit Before Tax¹ increased by $47.9m to $116.9m (Q2 2025: $69.0m), with Adjusted Profit Before Tax Margin¹ increasing to 33.3% (Q2 2025: 26.5%). The improvement reflected strong revenue growth and a favorable shift in business mix towards higher-margin Securities activities, particularly Prime. Average front office headcount increased to 905 (Q2 2025: 677), reflecting the addition of Hamilton Court alongside continued investment in new trading desks and capabilities.

Performance for H1 2026

Revenue increased by $173.0m to $673.3m (H1 2025: $500.3m), driven by strong growth across Securities, partially offset by lower Energy revenue.

Securities revenue increased by $176.6m to $496.2m (H1 2025: $319.6m). Prime revenue increased by $80.5m to $194.4m (H1 2025: $113.9m), supported by strong client demand and continued momentum in securities-based swaps. FX revenue increased by $69.2m to $83.2m (H1 2025: $14.0m), primarily reflecting the contribution from Hamilton Court. Equities revenue increased by $30.9m to $130.4m (H1 2025: $99.5m), driven by market share gains. Rates revenue increased by $5.5m to $65.3m (H1 2025: $59.8m), partially offset by a $10.6m decrease in Credit revenue to $22.5m (H1 2025: $33.1m).

Energy revenue decreased by $9.9m to $170.3m (H1 2025: $180.2m), with record performance in Q1 2026 more than offset by lower market activity and volumes in the second quarter.

Adjusted Profit Before Tax¹ increased by $82.4m to $208.1m (H1 2025: $125.7m), with Adjusted Profit Before Tax Margin¹ increasing to 30.9% (H1 2025: 25.1%) driven by the greater contribution from higher-margin Securities activities, particularly Prime. Average front office headcount increased to 891 (H1 2025: 673), reflecting the addition of Hamilton Court and continued investment in new capabilities.

Corporate

Corporate manages the control and support functions of the Group and provides operational support to the business functions. In addition, Corporate manages the Group’s funding requirements. Interest expense is incurred through the issuance of senior debt and structured notes which are recharged to other segments through inter-segmental funding allocations to reflect their consumption of these resources. Revenue generated in Corporate decreased in H1 2026 as the Group maintained surplus levels of liquidity during the year.

Control and support costs increased in H1 2026 reflecting an increase in discretionary pay linked to the performance of the Group, the recently completed acquisitions and continued investment across our finance, risk, technology and compliance functions as we invest in our people and systems to support the Group's future growth.

Summary Financial Position

Our balance sheet continues to consist of high-quality liquid assets which underpin client activity on our platform.

Total Assets have increased from $32.7bn at December 31, 2025 to $42.1bn at June 30, 2026.

Debt securities increased by $1.1bn to $6.9bn, primarily reflecting the Group's $500m Senior Note issuance in April 2026 and increased issuances from the Group's Structured Notes Program further strengthening the Group's liquidity position.

The remaining balance sheet growth was primarily driven by increased securities, up $6.3bn, from $9.8bn at December 31, 2025 to $16.1bn at June 30, 2026. The growth was primarily driven by increased Prime Balances and associated financing.

The Group's equity base increased by 48% to $1.9bn as at June 30, 2026, up from $1.3bn as at December 31, 2025. The increase was mainly driven by the Group's $500m hybrid perpetual note issuance in June 2026, partly offset by the Group's partial redemption of its AT1 instrument of $94.7m. Retained earnings also increased from strong profitability in the period with Profit After Tax of $267.7m, partly offset by ordinary dividend payments of $22.3m.

Marex Group redomiciliation to Bermuda

On July 1, 2026, following the period end, the Group completed its previously announced reorganization, under which Marex Group Limited, incorporated in Bermuda, became the ultimate parent company of the Group. The Group is now organized through four regional pillars—UK, EMEA, US and Rest of World—each designed to be self-sufficient in capital and liquidity, with access to additional resources from Marex Group Limited where required.

Following the redomiciliation to Bermuda, the Group is no longer subject to the consolidated capital and liquidity requirements of the UK Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA"). Capital and liquidity management remains a Group-wide discipline overseen by the Board. The Group maintains a disciplined and prudent approach, managing capital and liquidity in line with an internal risk appetite that is consistent with the previously applicable regulatory methodology and framework. The Group also remains committed to maintaining an investment grade credit rating.

Liquidity

	June 30, 2026	December 31, 2025
	$m	$m
Total available liquid resources	4,324.5	2,747.1
Liquidity headroom	1,814.1	1,045.8

As at June 30, 2026, the Group held $4.3bn of total available liquid resources, including the undrawn portion of the committed revolving credit facility ("RCF") (December 31, 2025: $2.7bn).

The Group's Liquid Assets comprise cash and high-quality liquid assets that can be readily converted to meet immediate and short-term obligations. These include non-segregated cash, short-term money market funds, unencumbered securities guaranteed by the U.S. Government, excess funds held at exchanges or brokers, and other liquid unencumbered securities, subject to applicable haircuts.

Total available liquid resources additionally include the undrawn portion of the Group’s committed RCF, which provides an additional source of contingent funding beyond the liquid assets used to calculate liquidity headroom. On June 30, 2026, the Group replaced its $150.0 million RCF with a new $490.0 million facility, which remained fully undrawn as at June 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025: $150.0m, undrawn). Facilities held by operating subsidiaries, which are only available to the relevant subsidiary, are excluded as they are not available to the Group as a whole.

Liquidity headroom represents the excess of Liquid Assets over the Group's Liquidity Requirement. The Liquidity Requirement is determined in accordance with the Group's Liquidity Risk Framework and reflects the peak liquidity impact arising from severe but plausible stress scenarios over a 30-day horizon. The requirement incorporates a combination of systemic and idiosyncratic stress factors, net of eligible stress mitigants.

Other equity components comprise own shares, other reserves, and non-controlling interests.
Group capital resources are derived from total equity after deductions and other adjustments principally in respect of goodwill, intangible assets, deferred tax assets and valuation adjustments. Hybrid perpetual instruments are included at their principal amount of $500.0m.
The Group capital requirement is an internal management measure calculated using internal methodologies broadly consistent with methodologies previously applied by the Group.
The Group capital ratio represents Group capital resources as a percentage of the Group capital requirement.

The Group applies a disciplined capital allocation framework, with maintaining sufficient capital to support its investment grade credit ratings as a key priority. Within that framework, the Group also seeks to support organic growth, return capital to shareholders through dividends and deploy excess capital into selective acquisitions. This is consistent with the capital allocation priorities communicated at the Group’s 2026 Investor Day.

To support the Board’s oversight and capital allocation decisions, the Group monitors internal capital measures comprising Group capital resources, a Group capital requirement and a Group capital ratio. These are management measures, applied under the Group's internal risk appetite framework described above, and do not represent regulatory capital requirements at the total Group level.

Financial Review

Capital Management

Group capital resources increased to $1,501.4m, principally reflecting profits generated during the period and the issuance of the hybrid perpetual instruments, partly offset by the redemption of the Group’s Additional Tier 1 instruments, dividends paid, movements in other reserves and capital deductions. The hybrid perpetual instruments are classified as equity in the Group’s consolidated financial statements and were designed to receive equity credit under the published methodologies of the Group’s rating agencies.

Dividend

The Board of Directors approved the payment of a dividend of $0.16 per share to be paid on September 9, 2026 to the shareholders on record at the close of business on August 24, 2026.

Appendix 1

Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Key Performance Indicators

This press release contains non-IFRS financial measures, including Adjusted Profit Before Tax, Adjusted Profit Before Tax Margin, Adjusted Basic Earnings per Share, Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share, Adjusted Profit After Tax Attributable to Common Equity and Adjusted Return on Equity. These non-IFRS financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered a substitute for profit after tax, profit margin, return on equity or any other financial information presented in accordance with IFRS and may be different from similarly titled non-IFRS financial measures used by other companies.

Adjusted Profit Before Tax

We define Adjusted Profit Before Tax as profit after tax from continuing operations adjusted for (i) tax, (ii) goodwill impairment charges, (iii) merger and acquisition costs (iv) bargain purchase gains, (v) owner fees, (vi) amortization of acquired brands and customer lists, (vii) activities in relation to shareholders, (viii) employer tax on the vesting of Growth Shares, (ix) IPO preparation costs, (x) fair value of the cash settlement option on the Growth Shares, (xi) public offering of ordinary shares and (xii) redomiciliation costs. Items (i) to (xii) are referred to as "Adjusting Items." Adjusting Items are excluded because they are not reflective of our ongoing underlying trading performance. They typically relate to acquisition accounting, shareholder-related activities and other non-recurring items, which can vary significantly between periods and are not considered part of the Group’s core operations.

The Group has expanded its definition of acquisition costs, relabeling this item as Merger & Acquisition (M&A) activity to better reflect the broader range of transactions now captured. The Group undertakes acquisition activity as part of its business strategy, and M&A-related costs may therefore recur from period to period. Management generally excludes costs arising from transactions outside the Group's normal course of M&A activity in support of its core business, such as the acquisition and disposal of Winterflood Custody Business, which was non-operating in nature and unrelated to the Group's ongoing trading activities. Costs from routine, bolt-on acquisitions are typically not excluded, as these are considered part of the underlying cost base of the business. Each item is assessed by management on its individual facts and circumstances.

Adjusted Profit Before Tax is an important measure used by our management to evaluate and understand our underlying operations and business trends, forecast future results and determine future capital investment allocations. Adjusted Profit Before Tax is the measure used by our executive board to assess the financial performance of our business in relation to our trading performance. The most directly comparable IFRS Accounting Standards measure is profit after tax from continuing operations.

We believe Adjusted Profit Before Tax is a useful measure as it allows management to monitor our ongoing core operations and provides useful information to investors and analysts regarding the net results of the business. The core operations represent the primary trading operations of the business.

Adjusted Profit Before Tax Margin

We define Adjusted Profit Before Tax Margin as Adjusted Profit Before Tax (as defined above) divided by revenue. We believe that Adjusted Profit Before Tax Margin is a useful measure as it allows management to assess the profitability of our business in relation to revenue.

IFRS accounting standards do not define profit margin. Therefore the most directly comparable IFRS measure for profit margin is Profit After Tax divided by revenue.

Adjusted Profit After Tax Attributable to Common Equity

We define Adjusted Profit After Tax Attributable to Common Equity as profit after tax adjusted for the items outlined in the Adjusted Profit Before Tax paragraph above. Additionally, Adjusted Profit After Tax Attributable to Common Equity is also adjusted for (i) tax and the tax effect of the Adjusting Items to calculate Adjusted Profit Before Tax and (ii) profit attributable to AT1 and hybrid perpetual note holders, which is the coupons on the AT1 and hybrid perpetual issuances and accounted for as dividends, adjusted for the tax benefit of the coupons, and (iii) profit attributable to non-controlling interest.

We define Common Equity as being the equity belonging to the holders of the Group’s share capital. We believe Adjusted Profit After Tax Attributable to Common Equity is a useful measure as it allows management to assess the profitability of the equity belonging to the holders of the Group’s share capital.

The most directly comparable IFRS Accounting Standards measure is profit after tax.

Adjusted Return on Equity

We define the Adjusted Return on Equity as the Adjusted Profit After Tax Attributable to Common Equity (as defined above) divided by the average Common Equity for the period.

Common Equity is defined as being the equity belonging to the holders of the Group’s share capital, excluding additional Tier 1 capital, hybrid perpetual instruments and non-controlling interest. Average Common Equity for a three-month period is calculated using the opening and closing quarter-end balances. For a six-month period, it is calculated using the balances at December 31 of the prior year, March 31 and June 30 of the current year. We believe Adjusted Return on Equity is a useful measure as it allows management to assess the return on the equity belonging to the holders of the Group’s share capital.

The most directly comparable IFRS Accounting Standards measure for Adjusted Return on Equity is Return on Equity, which is calculated as profit after tax for the period divided by average equity. Average equity is calculated using the opening and closing quarter-end balances. For a six-month period, it is calculated using the balances at December 31 of the prior year, March 31 and June 30 of the current year.

Appendix 1

Adjusted Basic Earnings per Share and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share

Adjusted Basic Earnings per Share is defined as the Adjusted Profit After Tax Attributable to Common Equity for the period divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares for the period. We believe Adjusted Basic Earnings per Share is a useful measure as it allows management to assess the profitability of our business per share. The most directly comparable IFRS Accounting Standards metric is Basic Earnings per Share. This metric has been designed to highlight the Adjusted Profit After Tax Attributable to Common Equity over the available share capital of the Group.

Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share is defined as the Adjusted Profit After Tax Attributable to Common Equity for the period divided by the diluted weighted average shares for the period. We believe Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share is a useful measure as it allows management to assess the profitability of our business per share on a diluted basis. Dilution is calculated in the same way as it has been for Diluted Earnings per Share. The most directly comparable IFRS Accounting Standards metric is Diluted Earnings per Share.

We believe that these non-IFRS financial measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain items that management believes are not indicative of our ongoing operations. Our management uses these non-IFRS financial measures to evaluate our business strategies and to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period. We believe that these non-IFRS financial measures provide useful information to investors because they improve the comparability of our financial results between periods and provide for greater transparency of key measures used to evaluate our performance. In addition these non-IFRS financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies comparable to us, many of which present related performance measures when reporting their results.

These non-IFRS financial measures are used by different companies for differing purposes and are often calculated in different ways that reflect the circumstances of those companies. In addition, certain judgments and estimates are inherent in our process to calculate such non-IFRS financial measures. You should exercise caution in comparing these non-IFRS financial measures as reported by other companies.

These non-IFRS financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under IFRS Accounting Standards. Some of these limitations are:

they do not reflect costs incurred in relation to the acquisitions that we have undertaken;
they do not reflect impairment of goodwill;
other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures; and
the adjustments made in calculating these non-IFRS measures are those that management considers to be not representative of our core operations and, therefore, are subjective in nature.

Accordingly, prospective investors should not place undue reliance on these non-IFRS financial measures.

Key Performance Indicators

We also use key performance indicators ("KPIs") such as Average Balances and Contracts Cleared to assess the performance of our business and believe that these KPIs provide useful information to both management and investors by showing the growth of our business across the periods presented.

Our management uses these KPIs to evaluate our business strategies and to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period. We define certain terms used in this release as follows:

"FTE" means the number of our full-time equivalents as of the end of a given period, which includes permanent employees and contractors.

"Average FTE" means the average number of our full-time equivalents over the period, including permanent employees and contractors.

"Average Balances" means the average of the daily holdings in exchanges, banks and other investments over the period. Previously, average balances were calculated as the average month-end amount of segregated and non-segregated client balances that generated interest income over a given period.

"Total Capital Ratio" means our total capital resources in a given period divided by the capital requirement for such period under the IFPR.

"Contracts Cleared" means the total number of contracts cleared in a given period.

"Volumes" means the volume of exchange-traded derivatives transacted in a given period.

Clearing Market Volumes are calculated as futures and options traded and/or cleared on Marex key exchanges (CBOT, CME, Eurex, Euronext, ICE, LME, NYMEX, COMEX, SGX).

A bargain purchase gain was recognized as a result of the Group's acquisition of Darton Group Limited ("Darton").
This represents the amortization charge for the period of acquired brands and customer lists.
Owner fees relate to management services to parties associated with the former ultimate controlling party based on a percentage of the Group’s profitability. Owner fees are excluded from operating expenses as they do not form part of the operation of the business and ceased to be incurred after the completion of our offering.
Costs relating to the public offerings of ordinary shares by certain selling shareholders.
Merger and acquisition costs: These primarily consist of professional advisory and legal fees in relation to M&A activity.
Redomiciliation costs: Costs incurred in relation to the migration of the Group's TopCo to Bermuda.
Tax and the tax effect on Adjusting Items represents the tax effect on the Group's non-operating adjusting items and the tax benefit of the coupons.
Profit attributable to Additional Tier 1 (AT1) and hybrid perpetual note holders includes coupons, which are accounted for as dividends. $500m of hybrid capital was issued in June 2026.
Profit attributable to non-controlling interest relates to the Group's acquisition of Hamilton Court.
Adjusted Profit Before Tax Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted Profit Before Tax (as defined above) by revenue for the period.
The weighted average numbers of diluted shares used in the calculation of earnings per share are as follows: three months ended June 30, 2026 75,803,797; three months ended June 30, 2025 75,101,773; six months ended June 30, 2026 75,639,807; six months ended June 30, 2025 74,650,019.
Common Equity for each three-month period is calculated as the average balance of total equity minus additional Tier 1 capital, hybrid perpetual instruments and non-controlling interest as at March 31 and June 30 of the current year. Common Equity for each year is calculated as the average balance of total equity minus additional Tier 1 capital, hybrid perpetual instruments and non-controlling interest as at December 31 of the prior year and March 31 and June 30 of the current year.
