In addition, our customers can use our trading platform to trade certain cryptocurrencies through third-party cryptocurrency service providers that execute, clear and custody the cryptocurrencies. In the United States of America (“U.S.”), we conduct our business primarily from our headquarters in Greenwich, Connecticut and from Chicago, Illinois. Abroad, we conduct our business through offices located in Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Switzerland, Hungary, Dubai, India, China (Hong Kong and Shanghai), Japan, Singapore, and Australia.

IBG, Inc. is a holding company whose primary asset is the ownership of approximately 26.5% (approximately 26.6% after completion of this offering) of the membership interests of IBG LLC, the current holding company for our businesses. The remaining approximately 73.5% (approximately 73.4% after completion of this offering) of IBG LLC membership interests are held by IBG Holdings LLC, a holding company that is owned directly and indirectly by our founder and Chairman, Mr. Thomas Peterffy and his affiliates, management and other employees of IBG LLC, and certain other members. IBG, Inc. is the sole managing member of IBG LLC.

We trace our roots to the market making business founded by our Chairman, Mr. Thomas Peterffy, on the floor of the American Stock Exchange in 1977. Since our inception, we have focused on developing proprietary software to automate broker-dealer functions. We have been a pioneer in developing and applying technology as a financial intermediary to increase liquidity and transparency in the capital markets in which we operate. The proliferation of electronic exchanges and market centers has allowed us to integrate our software with an increasing number of trading venues, as well as with market data sources, securities lending platforms and regulatory reporting facilities, creating one automated platform that requires minimal human intervention. Nearly five decades of developing our automated trading platforms and automating many middle- and back-office functions have allowed us to become one of the lowest cost providers of broker-dealer services and to significantly increase the volume of trades we handle.

Powered by our proprietary technology, our systems provide our customers with the capability to monitor multiple markets around the world simultaneously and to execute trades electronically in these markets at a low cost, in multiple products and currencies from a single trading account. Our overnight trading facilities, available for an array of instruments, support our customers who trade across time zones. The ever-growing complexity of multiple market centers across diverse geographies provides us with ongoing opportunities to build and continuously adapt our order routing software to secure excellent execution prices.

Our customer base is diverse with respect to geography and type. Currently our customers reside in over 200 countries and territories. We serve individuals, as well as institutional accounts such as hedge funds, financial advisors, proprietary trading firms and introducing brokers. Specialized products and services that we have developed successfully attract institutional accounts. For example, we offer prime brokerage services, including financing and securities lending, to hedge funds; our model portfolio technology and automated share allocation and rebalancing tools are particularly attractive to financial advisors; and our trading platform, global access and low pricing attract introducing brokers.

On August 28, 2025, we joined the S&P 500 Index. Our inclusion in the S&P 500 represents a significant milestone in recognition of our financial performance, sustained profitability, market capitalization, technology-driven business model, consistent growth in client accounts and assets, and our position as a leading global automated brokerage platform serving individual and institutional customers worldwide. Our addition to the S&P 500 has resulted in increased ownership by index funds and exchange-traded funds that track the index, broadening our institutional investor base and enhancing the liquidity and trading depth of our common stock.

Since the launching of our electronic brokerage business in 1993, we have grown to approximately 5.2 million institutional and individual brokerage customers. We provide our customers with what we believe to be one of the most effective and efficient automated brokerage platforms in the industry.

We are a holding company and our primary asset is our ownership of approximately 26.5% (approximately 26.6% after completion of this offering) of the membership interests of IBG LLC, the holding company for our businesses. The remaining approximately 73.5% (approximately 73.4% after completion of this offering) of IBG LLC membership interests are held by IBG Holdings LLC (“Holdings”), a holding company that is owned directly and indirectly by our founder and Chairman, Mr. Thomas Peterffy and his affiliates, management and other employees of IBG LLC, and certain other members. Mr. Thomas Peterffy and his affiliates, directly and indirectly, own approximately 91.6% (approximately 91.8% after completion of this offering) of the membership interests in Holdings. Our holding company structure is designed to allow both public stockholders (through IBG, Inc.) and historical members (through Holdings) to have economic interests in our businesses.

Our only business is to act as the sole managing member of IBG LLC. As sole managing member of IBG LLC, we operate and control all of the business and affairs of IBG LLC.

Concurrently with our initial public offering (“IPO”), we entered into an exchange agreement with Holdings, IBG LLC and the historical members of IBG LLC (the “Exchange Agreement”). Pursuant to this agreement, the historical members of IBG LLC received membership interests in Holdings in exchange for their membership interests in IBG LLC. Under the Exchange Agreement, as amended, on an annual basis, each holder of a Holdings membership interest may request that Holdings redeem all or any portion of that holder’s interest. The manner in which the redemption price will be paid is by our sale of shares of common stock to the public and using the gross proceeds from such sales, less underwriting discounts or placement agency fees, to acquire IBG LLC membership interests from Holdings. Alternatively, we may issue our common stock to Holdings in exchange for a corresponding number of membership interests in IBG LLC. We would then expect Holdings to either (i) sell our common stock over time and distribute the net proceeds to the redeeming members or (ii) distribute our common stock in-kind to the redeeming members. Regardless of the method chosen, we also are obligated to pay 85% of certain tax benefits we receive in the sale – see discussion of “Allocation of Tax Benefits” below.

The annual registration and sale of shares of our common stock to satisfy redemption requests is described in greater detail in our Exchange Agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.3 to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, filed with the SEC on November 9, 2009. The Exchange Agreement was amended on June 6, 2012, to eliminate an alternative funding method, which provided that upon approval by the Board of Directors and by agreement of the Company, IBG LLC and Holdings, redemptions could be made in cash. A copy of the amendment to the Exchange Agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 12, 2012. The Exchange Agreement was also amended on July 23, 2015, to allow for annual redemptions on a going forward basis without any expiration period. A copy of the amendment to the Exchange Agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, filed with the SEC on November 9, 2015.

Additionally, Holdings, with the consent of Mr. Thomas Peterffy and our Board of Directors, has the right to redeem all or a portion of the membership interests of any member of Holdings at any time. Such redemptions would be financed in the same manner as the scheduled redemptions described above.

On July 21, 2026, we agreed to issue 2,499,567 shares of our common stock and pay 85% of certain tax benefits we receive – see discussion of Allocation of Tax Benefits below – to Holdings in exchange for membership interests in IBG LLC equal in number to such number of shares of common stock issued by us. Holdings intends to distribute these shares in-kind to the redeeming members in redemption (partial or complete) of such members’ interests in Holdings. Mr. Thomas Peterffy and his affiliates did not elect to redeem their membership interests (or a portion thereof) in Holdings. Therefore, no portion of the proceeds from selling these shares of common stock will be paid to Mr. Thomas Peterffy or his affiliates. These common shares may be sold in open market transactions subject to the limitations in one or more Rule 10b5-1 plans which may include daily volume limitations to minimize market impact. Members may also elect to sell these common shares without a Rule 10b5-1 plan, subject to the Company’s Employee Trading Policy. Mr. Peterffy and his affiliates may effectuate future redemptions of Holdings shares to continue selling our common stock, although that cannot be assured. The Peterffy Foundation ("the Foundation") is redeeming 230,000 shares. Although no family member has an economic interest in the Foundation, Mr. William Peterffy is a member of the Foundation's Board of Directors. In this role, Mr. William Peterffy is involved in making decisions over the shares of our common stock.

The graphic below does not display the subsidiaries of IBG LLC.

___________________________

(1)

As of July 29, 2026, Mr. Peterffy held 6,064,728 shares of our common stock for sale, representing an additional 0.36% of the voting interests in IBG, Inc. In addition Mr. Peterffy and Mr. Nemser are on the Board of Directors for a private foundation, Balance for Freedom, which owns 291,824 shares of our common stock. Although Messrs. Peterffy and Nemser do not have any economic interest in the shares owned by the foundation, they have the ability to dispose such shares together with the approval of other directors.

Allocation of Tax Benefits

As the result of our acquisition from Holdings of an IBG LLC membership interest by issuing shares of our common stock to Holdings, we will receive not only an additional interest in IBG LLC but also, for federal income tax purposes, an adjustment to the federal income tax basis of the assets of IBG LLC underlying such additional interest. This may lead to a savings in certain U.S. federal, state and local income taxes or franchise taxes. To the extent that we actually realize tax savings, we have agreed, under the terms of a tax receivable agreement with Holdings, to pay Holdings 85% of these cash savings and we will retain the remaining 15% of these cash savings. At the time of the closing of this offering, the increase in the amortizable tax basis attributable to our interest in IBG LLC, based on the closing price of our Class A common stock on July 24, 2026 of $91.74 and our purchase of an additional 0.15% of the outstanding interests of IBG LLC, is expected to be approximately $127 million.

S-15

Risks Related to Our Company Structure

The members of Holdings have the right to cause the redemption of their Holdings membership interests over time in connection with offerings of shares of our common stock. We intend to sell additional shares of common stock in public offerings in the future, which may include offerings of our common stock to finance future purchases of IBG LLC membership interests which, in turn, will finance corresponding redemptions of Holdings membership interests. These offerings and related transactions are anticipated to occur at least annually into the future. The size and occurrence of these offerings may be affected by market conditions. We may also issue additional shares of common stock or convertible debt securities to finance future acquisitions or business combinations. We currently have approximately 450.6 million outstanding shares of common stock. Assuming no anti-dilution adjustments based on combinations or divisions of our common stock, the offerings referred to above could result in the issuance by us of up to an additional approximately 1,250.7 million shares of common stock. It is possible, however, that such shares could be issued in one or a few large transactions.

We cannot predict the size of future issuances of our common stock or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of shares of our common stock may have on the market price of our common stock. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock (including shares issued in connection with an acquisition), or the perception that such sales could occur, may cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

Mr. Thomas Peterffy, our founder and Chairman, and his affiliates beneficially own approximately 91.6% (approximately 91.8% after completion of this offering) of the economic interests and all of the voting interests in Holdings, which owns all of our Class B common stock, representing approximately 73.5% (approximately 73.4% after completion of this offering) of the combined voting power of all classes of our voting stock. As a result, Mr. Peterffy has the ability to elect all of the members of our Board of Directors and thereby to control our management and affairs, including determinations with respect to acquisitions, dispositions, material expansions or contractions of our business, entry into new lines of business, borrowings, issuances of common stock or other securities, and the declaration and payment of dividends on our common stock. In addition, Mr. Peterffy is able to determine the outcome of all matters requiring stockholder approval and will be able to cause or prevent a change of control of our company or a change in the composition of our Board of Directors and could preclude any unsolicited acquisition of our company. The concentration of ownership could discourage potential takeover attempts that other stockholders may favor and could deprive stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their common stock as part of a sale of our company and this may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Moreover, because of Mr. Peterffy’s substantial ownership, we are eligible to be, and are treated as a “controlled company” for purposes of the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules. As a result, we are not required by Nasdaq to have a majority of independent directors or to maintain Compensation and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees composed entirely of independent directors to continue to list the shares of our common stock on Nasdaq. Our Compensation Committee is comprised of Messrs. Thomas Peterffy (Chairman of the Compensation Committee), Earl H. Nemser (our Vice Chairman) and Milan Galik (our Chief Executive Officer). Mr. Peterffy’s membership on the Compensation Committee may give rise to conflicts of interests in that Mr. Peterffy is able to influence all matters relating to executive compensation, including his own compensation.

We depend on IBG LLC to distribute cash to us in amounts sufficient to pay our tax liabilities and other expenses.

We are a holding company, and our primary assets are our approximately 26.5% (approximately 26.6% after completion of this offering) equity interest in IBG LLC and our controlling interest and related rights as the sole managing member of IBG LLC. As such, we operate and control all of the business and affairs of IBG LLC and are able to consolidate IBG LLC’s financial results into our financial statements. We have no independent means of generating revenues. IBG LLC is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, as such, is not subject to U.S. federal income tax. Instead, its taxable income is allocated on a pro rata basis to Holdings and us. Accordingly, we incur income taxes on our proportionate share of the net taxable income of IBG LLC, as well as expenses related to our operations. We intend to cause IBG LLC to distribute cash to its members in amounts at least equal to that necessary to cover their tax liabilities, if any, with respect to the earnings of IBG LLC. To the extent we need funds to pay such taxes, or for any other purpose, and IBG LLC is unable to provide such funds, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

S-16

In connection with our IPO, we purchased interests in IBG LLC from Holdings for cash. Subsequently, in connection with redemptions of Holdings membership interests, we purchased additional interests in IBG LLC by issuing shares of Class A common stock in exchange for an equivalent number of shares of member interests in IBG LLC (the “Redemptions”). In addition, IBG LLC membership interests held by Holdings may be sold in the future to us and financed by our issuances of shares of our common stock. The initial purchase and the Redemptions did, and future purchases may, result in increases in the tax basis of the tangible and intangible assets of IBG LLC and its subsidiaries that otherwise would not have been available. Such increase is approximately equal to the amount by which our stock price at the time of the purchase exceeds the inside tax basis of the assets of IBG LLC underlying the IBG LLC interests acquired by us. These increases in tax basis result in increased deductions in computing our taxable income, resulting in tax savings for us generally over the 15-year period commencing with the initial purchase and subsequent purchases. We have agreed to pay 85% of these tax savings, if any, to Holdings as they are realized as additional consideration for the IBG LLC interests that we acquire, with the balance retained by us.

As a result of the IPO and the Redemptions by Holdings, the increase in the tax basis attributable to our interest in IBG LLC is $2.2 billion, with the portion attributable to the IPO having been substantially amortized as of December 31, 2025. The tax savings that we actually realize as a result of this increase in tax basis could be significantly less than this amount multiplied by our effective tax rate due to a number of factors, including, for example, the allocation of a portion of the increase in tax basis to foreign or non-depreciable fixed assets, the impact of the increase in the tax basis on our ability to use foreign tax credits and the rules relating to the amortization of intangible assets. Based on facts and assumptions as of December 31, 2025, including that future purchases of IBG LLC interests will occur in fully taxable transactions, the potential tax basis increase resulting from the historical and future purchases of the IBG LLC interests held by Holdings could be as much as $44.6 billion. The actual increase in tax basis depends, among other factors, upon the price of shares of our common stock at the time of the purchase and the extent to which such purchases are taxable and, as a result, could differ materially from this amount. Our ability to achieve benefits from any such increase, and the amount of the payments to be made under the Tax Receivable Agreement, depends upon a number of factors, as discussed above, including the timing and amount of our future income.

The tax basis increase of $44.6 billion assumes that (a) all remaining IBG LLC membership interests held by Holdings are purchased by us in one or more taxable transactions and (b) such purchases in the future are made at prices that reflect the closing share price as of December 31, 2025.

If the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) successfully challenges the tax basis increase, under certain circumstances, we could be required to make payments to Holdings under the Tax Receivable Agreement in excess of our cash tax savings.

Certain provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation may prevent efforts by our stockholders to change our direction or management.

Provisions contained in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so might be beneficial to our stockholders. For example, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes our Board of Directors to determine the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of unissued series of preferred stock, without any vote or action by our stockholders. We could issue a series of preferred stock that could impede the completion of a merger, tender offer or other takeover attempt. These provisions may discourage potential acquisition proposals and may delay, deter or prevent a change of control of us, including through transactions, and, in particular, unsolicited transactions, that some or all of our stockholders might consider to be desirable. As a result, efforts by our stockholders to change our direction or management may be unsuccessful.

Risks Related to Our Business

Macroeconomic, geopolitical and other challenges and uncertainties could have a negative impact on our business.

We are affected by domestic and international macroeconomic and political conditions, as well as the level of interest rates, inflation, and by fiscal and monetary policy. Our business depends in part on the level of global trading volumes and volatility, which are affected by factors beyond our control. These factors may cause a weakness in securities markets, leading to a slowdown in trading volumes, which would result in reduced transaction revenues. Changes in tax law and regulation, or market uncertainty caused by a change in the political environment, may negatively affect our business. Our international operations may also be subject to risk of loss due to political, economic or financial instability, unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, tax laws, and changes in governmental or central bank policies. These risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

S-17

Our business could be harmed by a systemic market event.

Some market participants could be overleveraged. In case of sudden, large price movements, such market participants may not be able to meet their obligations to brokers who, in turn, may not be able to meet their obligations to their counterparties. As a result, the financial system or a portion thereof could collapse, and the impact of such an event could be catastrophic to our business.

Damage to our reputation could harm our business.

Maintaining our reputation is critical to attracting and maintaining customers, investors, and employees. If we fail to address, or appear to fail to address, issues that may give rise to reputational risk, we could significantly harm our business. These issues may include, but are not limited to, any of the risks discussed in this Item 1A, including appropriately dealing with potential conflicts of interest, legal and regulatory requirements, ethical issues, money laundering, cybersecurity and data privacy, record-keeping, sales and trading practices, and employee misconduct. Adverse developments could impair our reputation and materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The impact of a public health emergency may have a material adverse impact on our business and results of operations.

The response of governments and societies to a public health emergency, which could include temporary closures of certain businesses; social distancing; travel restrictions, “shelter in place” and other governmental regulations; and reduced consumer spending due to job losses, may significantly impact volatility in the financial, commodities and energy markets, and general economic conditions. These measures may negatively impact businesses, market participants, our counterparties and customers, and the global economy and could continue for a prolonged period of time.

Our net interest income and profitability could be negatively affected by lower benchmark interest rates caused by central banks lowering target benchmark rates in an attempt to buffer their economies from a public health emergency.

As a result of our hybrid work model, which we adopted for our offices globally, any disruption to our information technology systems, including from cyber incidents, could have a material adverse effect on our business. We have taken measures to maintain the health and safety of our employees, but widespread illness could negatively affect staffing levels within certain functions or locations. In addition, our ability to recruit, hire and onboard employees could be negatively impacted by a public health emergency.

The impact of a public health emergency on our future financial results could be significant but currently cannot be quantified, as it would depend on numerous evolving factors that cannot be accurately predicted, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the public health emergency; its impact on our customers, employees and vendors; governmental regulations in response to the public health emergency; and the overall impact of the public health emergency on the economy and society, among other factors. Any of these events, alone or in combination with others, could exacerbate many of the risk factors discussed or incorporated by reference herein and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our future success will depend on our response to the demand for new services, products and technologies.

The demand for our services that rely on electronic communications gateways is characterized by:

•

rapid technological change;

•

changing customer demands;

•

the need to enhance existing services and products or introduce new services and products; and

•

evolving industry standards.

New services, products and technologies may render our existing services, products and technologies less competitive. Our future success will depend, in part, on our ability to respond to the demand for new services, products and technologies on a timely and cost-effective basis and to adapt to technological advancements and changing standards to address the increasingly sophisticated requirements and varied needs of our customers and prospective customers. We cannot guarantee that we will always be successful in developing, introducing or marketing new services, products and technologies. In addition, we may experience difficulties that could delay or prevent the successful development, introduction or marketing of these services and products, and our new service and product enhancements may not achieve market acceptance. Any failure on our part to anticipate or respond adequately to technological advancements, customer requirements or changing industry standards, or any significant delays in the development, introduction or availability of new services, products or enhancements could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

S-18

The loss of our key employees would materially adversely affect our business.

Our key executives have substantial experience and have made significant contributions to our business, and our continued success is dependent upon the retention of our key management executives, as well as the services provided by our staff of trading system, technology and programming specialists and a number of other key managerial, marketing, planning, financial, technical and operations personnel. The loss of such key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business. Growth in our business is dependent, to a large degree, on our ability to retain and attract such employees.

We may not always pay dividends on our common stock.

As a holding company for our interest in IBG LLC, we will be dependent upon the ability of IBG LLC to generate earnings and cash flows and distribute them to us so that we may pay any dividends to our stockholders. To the extent (if any) that we have excess cash, any decision to declare and pay dividends in the future will be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors that our Board of Directors may deem relevant. Since the second quarter of 2011, we have declared and paid a quarterly cash dividend. Although not required, we currently intend to pay quarterly dividends of $0.0875 per share to our common stockholders for the foreseeable future.

Our direct market access clearing and non-clearing brokerage operations face intense competition.

With respect to our direct market access brokerage business, the market for electronic and interactive bidding, offering and trading services in connection with equities, options and futures is rapidly evolving and intensely competitive. We expect competition to continue and intensify in the future. Our current and potential future competition principally comes from five categories of competitors:

•

prime brokers who, in an effort to satisfy the demands of their customers for hands-on electronic trading facilities, universal access to markets, smart routing, better trading tools, and lower commissions and financing rates, have embarked upon building such facilities and product and service enhancements;

•

direct market access and online equity brokers, and online options and futures firms;

•

zero commission brokers, while technically not offering direct market access, who use simplified interfaces and a limited product offering to attract new market participants;

•

software development firms and vendors who create global trading networks and analytical tools and make them available to brokers; and

•

traditional brokers.

In addition, we compete with financial institutions, mutual fund sponsors and other organizations, many of which provide online, direct market access or other investing services. A number of brokers provide our technology and execution services to their customers, and these brokers can become our competitors if they develop their own technology. Some of our competitors in this area have greater name recognition, longer operating histories and significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than we have and offer a wider range of services and financial products than we do. Some of our competitors may also have an ability to charge lower or zero commissions. We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete effectively or efficiently with current or future competitors. These increasing levels of competition in the online trading industry could significantly harm this aspect of our business.

S-19

We are subject to potential losses as a result of our clearing and execution activities.

As a clearing member firm providing financing services to certain of our brokerage customers, we are ultimately responsible for their financial performance in connection with various securities and derivatives transactions. Our clearing operations require a commitment of our capital and, despite safeguards implemented by our software, involve risks of losses due to the potential failure of our customers to perform their obligations under these transactions. If our customers default on their obligations, we remain financially liable for such obligations, and although these obligations are collateralized, we are subject to market risk in the liquidation of customer collateral to satisfy those obligations. There can be no assurance that our risk management procedures will be adequate. Any liability arising from clearing operations could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

As a clearing member firm of securities and derivatives clearing houses in the U.S. and abroad, we are also exposed to clearing member credit risk. Securities and derivatives clearing houses require member firms to deposit cash, stock and/or government securities for margin requirements and to clearing funds. If a clearing member defaults in its obligations to the clearing house in an amount larger than its own margin and clearing fund deposits, the shortfall is absorbed pro rata from the deposits of the other clearing members. Many clearing houses of which we are members also have the authority to assess their members for additional funds if the clearing fund is depleted. A large clearing member default could result in a substantial cost to us if we are required to pay such assessments.

We are exposed to risks associated with our international operations.

During 2025, approximately 30% of our net revenues were generated by our operating subsidiaries outside the U.S. We are exposed to risks and uncertainties inherent in doing business in international markets, particularly in the heavily regulated brokerage industry. Such risks and uncertainties include political, economic and financial instability; unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, tariffs and other trade barriers; exchange rate fluctuations; applicable currency controls; and difficulties in staffing, including reliance on newly hired local experts, and managing foreign operations. These risks could cause a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are subject to counterparty risk whereby defaults by parties with whom we do business can have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are exposed to the risk of loss if a customer, counterparty or issuer fails to perform its obligations under contractual terms. Our counterparty risk is primarily from margin loans extended to customers, securities purchased under agreements to resell (“repos”), securities borrowing and lending arrangements, cash and/or collateral deposited with clearing houses, exchanges, banks, securities firms and other financial counterparties, all of which may result in credit exposure in the event the counterparty defaults on their obligations to us due to bankruptcy, lack of liquidity, operational failure or other reasons.

Our customer margin credit exposure is to a great extent mitigated by our policy of automatically evaluating each account throughout the trading day and closing out positions automatically for accounts that are found to be under-margined. While this methodology is effective in most situations, it may not be effective in situations in which no liquid market exists for the relevant securities or commodities or in which, for any reason, automatic liquidation for certain accounts has been disabled. If no liquid market exists or automatic liquidation has been disabled, we are subject to risks inherent in extending credit, especially during periods of rapidly declining markets. Any loss or expense incurred due to defaults by our customers in failing to repay margin loans or to maintain adequate collateral for these loans would cause harm to our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Repos are collateralized by securities with a market value in excess of the obligation under the contract and are cleared and marked to market through a central clearing counterparty.

Securities lending agreements are collateralized by deposits of cash or securities. We attempt to minimize credit risk associated with these activities by monitoring collateral values daily and requiring additional collateral to be deposited with or returned to us as permitted under contractual provisions. Similarly, over-the-counter transactions, such as contracts for differences (“CFDs”), are marked to market daily and are conducted with counterparties that have undergone a thorough credit review. Any loss or expense incurred due to defaults by our counterparties in failing to fulfill their contractual obligations would cause harm to our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, as a clearing member of several central clearing houses, we participate in the mutualization of risk and could incur financial losses in the event of default by other clearing members. Although we regularly review our credit exposures, default risk may arise from events or circumstances that are difficult to detect or foresee.

S-20

Although our growth strategy has not focused historically on acquisitions, we may in the future engage in evaluations of potential acquisitions and new businesses. We may not have the financial resources necessary to consummate any acquisitions in the future or the ability to obtain the necessary funds on satisfactory terms. Any future acquisitions may result in significant transaction expenses and risks associated with entering new markets in addition to integration and consolidation risks. Because acquisitions historically have not been a core part of our growth strategy, we have little experience in successfully utilizing acquisitions. We may not have sufficient management, financial and other resources to integrate any such future acquisitions or to successfully operate new businesses and we may be unable to profitably operate our expanded company.

Because our revenues and profitability depend on trading volume and interest rate levels, they are prone to significant fluctuations and are difficult to predict.

Our revenues are dependent on the level of trading activity on securities and derivatives exchanges in the U.S. and abroad and on the general level of interest rates. In the past, our revenues and operating results have varied significantly from period to period primarily due to movements and trends in the underlying markets and to fluctuations in trading and interest rate levels. As a result, period to period comparisons of our revenues and operating results may not be meaningful, and future revenues and profitability may be subject to significant fluctuations or declines.

We may incur material trading losses from our market making activities.

A portion of our revenues and operating profits is derived from our trading as principal in our role as a market maker. We may incur trading losses relating to these activities since each primarily involves the purchase or sale of securities for our own account. In any period, we may incur trading losses in a significant number of securities for a variety of reasons including:

•

price changes in securities;

•

lack of liquidity in securities in which we have positions; and

•

the required performance of our market making obligations.

These risks may limit or restrict our ability to either resell securities we purchased or to repurchase securities we sold. In addition, we may experience difficulty borrowing securities to make delivery to purchasers to whom we sold short, or lenders from whom we have borrowed. From time to time, we may have large position concentrations in securities of a single issuer or issuers engaged in a specific industry or traded in a particular market. Such a concentration could result in higher trading losses than would occur if our positions and activities were less concentrated.

In our role as a market maker, we attempt to derive a profit from the difference between the prices at which we buy and sell, or sell and buy, securities. However, competitive forces often require us to match the quotes other market makers display and to hold varying amounts of securities in inventory. By having to maintain inventory positions, we are subjected to a high degree of risk. We cannot assure you that we will be able to manage such risk successfully or that we will not experience significant losses from such activities, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Reduced spreads in securities pricing, levels of trading activity and trading through market makers could harm our business.

Computer-generated buy/sell programs and other technological advances and regulatory changes in the marketplace may continue to tighten spreads on securities transactions. Tighter spreads and increased competition could make our remaining market making activities less profitable.

We may incur losses in our market making activities in the event of failures of our proprietary pricing model.

Our market making activities are substantially dependent on the accuracy of our proprietary pricing mathematical model, which continuously evaluates and monitors the risks inherent in our portfolio, assimilates market data and reevaluates our outstanding quotes many times per second. Our model is designed to automatically rebalance our positions throughout the trading day to manage risk exposures on our positions in options, futures and the underlying securities. In the event of a flaw in our pricing model and/or a failure in the related software, our pricing model may lead to unexpected and/or unprofitable trades, which may result in material trading losses.

S-21

The valuation of the financial instruments we hold may result in large and occasionally anomalous swings in the value of our positions and in our earnings in any period.

The market prices of our long and short positions are reflected on our books at closing prices which are typically the last trade price before the official close of the primary exchange on which each such security trades. If prices of derivatives and their underlying securities close out of alignment, there may be large and occasionally anomalous swings in the value of our positions daily and, accordingly, in our earnings in any period. This is especially true on the last business day of each calendar quarter.

We are exposed to losses due to lack of perfect information.

As market makers, we provide liquidity by buying from sellers and selling to buyers. Quite often, we trade with others who have different information than we do, and as a result, we may accumulate unfavorable positions preceding large price movements in companies. Should the frequency or magnitude of these events increase, our losses will likely increase correspondingly.

Rules governing designated market makers may require us to make unprofitable trades or prevent us from making profitable trades.

Designated market makers are granted certain rights and have certain obligations to “make a market” in a particular security. They agree to specific obligations to maintain a fair and orderly market. In acting as a designated market maker, we are subjected to a high degree of risk by having to support an orderly market. In this role, we may at times be required to make trades that adversely affect our profitability. In addition, we may at times be unable to trade for our own account in circumstances in which it may be to our advantage to trade, and we may be obligated to act as a principal when buyers or sellers outnumber each other. In those instances, we may take a position counter to the market, buying or selling securities to support an orderly market. Additionally, the rules of the markets which govern our activities as a designated market maker are subject to change. If these rules are made more stringent, our trading revenues and profits as a designated market maker could be adversely affected.

Our risk management policies and procedures may not be fully effective in mitigating our risk exposure in all market environments or against all types of risks.

We seek to manage, monitor and control our market, credit, operational, liquidity, and legal and regulatory compliance risks through risk management policies developed and implemented by our Steering Committee, which is chaired by our Chief Executive Officer and comprised of senior executives of our various operating subsidiaries. However, there can be no assurance that our procedures will be adequate. Historically, market conditions have included unprecedented market events which highlighted the limitations inherent in using historical data to manage risk. While we employ a broad and diversified set of risk management tools, they cannot anticipate every economic and financial outcome or the specifics and timing of such outcomes, as a result a failure in our risk management policies and procedures could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. See "Risk Management Activities" in Part I Item 1 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for more information.

Risks Related to Laws, Regulations and Litigation

Our future efforts to sell shares or raise additional capital may be delayed or prohibited by regulations.

As certain of our subsidiaries are members of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), we are subject to certain regulations regarding changes in control of our ownership. FINRA Rule 1017 generally provides that FINRA approval must be obtained in connection with any transaction resulting in a change in control of a member firm. FINRA defines control as ownership of 25% or more of the firm’s equity by a single entity or person and would include a change in control of a parent company. Interactive Brokers Canada, Inc., Interactive Brokers (U.K.) Limited, Interactive Brokers Ireland Limited, IBKR Financial Services AG, Interactive Brokers Hong Kong Limited, and Interactive Brokers Singapore Pte. Ltd. are subject to similar change in control regulations promulgated by the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (“CIRO”) in Canada, the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) in the United Kingdom, the Central Bank of Ireland (“CBI”) in Ireland, the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (“FINMA”) in Switzerland, the Securities and Futures Commission (“SFC”) in Hong Kong, and the Monetary Authority of Singapore (“MAS”) in Singapore, respectively. As a result of these regulations, our future efforts to sell shares or raise additional capital may be delayed or prohibited. We may be subject to similar restrictions in other jurisdictions in which we operate.

S-22

Regulatory and legal uncertainties could harm our business.

The securities and derivatives businesses are heavily regulated. Firms in financial service industries have been subject to an increasingly regulated environment over recent years, and penalties and fines sought by regulatory authorities have increased accordingly. Our broker-dealer and certain other subsidiaries are subject to regulations in the U.S. and abroad covering all aspects of their business. Regulatory bodies include, in the U.S., the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), FINRA, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Chicago Board Options Exchange, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”), and the National Futures Association; in Canada, the CIRO and various Canadian securities commissions; in the United Kingdom, the FCA; in Ireland, the CBI; in Switzerland, the FINMA; in India, the Securities and Exchange Board of India; in Hong Kong, the SFC; in Japan, the Financial Supervisory Agency and the Japan Securities Dealers Association; in Singapore, the MAS; and in Australia, the Australian Securities and Investment Commission. Our mode of operation and profitability may be directly affected by additional legislation, changes in rules promulgated by various domestic and foreign government agencies and self-regulatory organizations that oversee our businesses, and changes in the interpretation or enforcement of existing laws and rules, including the potential imposition of transaction taxes. Noncompliance with applicable laws or regulations could result in sanctions being levied against us, including fines and censures, suspension or expulsion from a certain jurisdiction or market or the revocation or limitation of licenses. Noncompliance with applicable laws or regulations could adversely affect our reputation, prospects, revenues and earnings. In addition, changes in current laws or regulations or in governmental policies could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Domestic and foreign stock exchanges, other self-regulatory organizations and state and foreign securities commissions can censure, fine, issue cease-and-desist orders, suspend or expel a broker-dealer or any of its officers or employees. Our ability to comply with all applicable laws and rules is largely dependent on our internal systems to ensure compliance, as well as our ability to attract and retain qualified compliance personnel. We could be subject to disciplinary or other actions in the future due to claimed noncompliance, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. To continue to operate and to expand our services internationally, we may have to comply with the regulatory controls of each country in which we conduct, or intend to conduct business, the requirements of which may not be clearly defined. The varying compliance requirements of these different regulatory jurisdictions, which are often unclear, may limit our ability to continue existing international operations and further expand internationally.

We are subject to risks relating to litigation and potential securities laws liability.

We are exposed to substantial risks of liability under federal and state securities laws, other federal and state laws and court decisions, as well as rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC, the CFTC, the Federal Reserve, state securities regulators, self-regulatory organizations and foreign regulatory agencies. We are also subject to the risk of litigation and claims that may be without merit. We could incur significant legal expenses in defending ourselves against and resolving lawsuits or claims. An adverse resolution of any future lawsuits or claims against us could result in a negative perception of the Company and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. See “Legal Proceedings and Regulatory Matters” in Part I Item 3 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Heightened regulatory and legislative requirements in the U.S. and internationally have increased our compliance, regulatory and other risks and costs.

We are required to interpret and implement extensive and frequently changing regulatory and legislative requirements in the U.S. and other jurisdictions in which we do business resulting in substantial compliance, regulatory and other risks and costs, including the cost of hiring additional personnel. In addition, there is heightened regulatory scrutiny and expectations in the U.S. and internationally with respect to governance, infrastructure, data, risk management practices and controls. A failure to comply with these requirements and expectations, even if inadvertent, could result in increased regulatory oversight and restrictions, enforcement proceedings, penalties and fines.

S-23

There are emerging legal and regulatory risks related to prediction markets that could harm our business.

ForecastEx is a CFTC-registered Designated Contract Market ("DCM") and Derivatives Clearing Organization ("DCO") that lists event contracts (referred to as "Forecast Contracts"). Eligible customers of certain of our broker-dealer subsidiaries have access to Forecast Contracts through ForecastEx.

The legal and regulatory framework for prediction markets is uncertain and continues to evolve. The outcome of currently ongoing and potential future regulatory matters, enforcement actions and litigation, as well as new laws or regulations, changes in the interpretation of existing laws or regulations, or more rigorous enforcement in this space could prevent ForecastEx from listing, and our broker-dealer subsidiaries from offering, some or all types of Forecast Contracts in the future, including in jurisdictions outside of the U.S.

In addition, there is heightened scrutiny of certain types of contracts (including contracts relating to sports and elections), and there is a risk of litigation and law enforcement activity from state gaming and regulatory authorities, as well as litigation from a range of other plaintiffs.

We may incur additional tax expense or become subject to additional tax liabilities.

We are subject to the tax laws and regulations of the U.S., its states and municipalities, and numerous foreign jurisdictions. These tax laws and regulations, as well as the treaties between jurisdictions, are complex, and the manner they apply to us is sometimes open to interpretations. Therefore, significant judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities balances, and other tax liabilities. The tax positions that we take are subject to review by the IRS and other tax authorities in the U.S. and in foreign countries, which may not agree with our positions. Any adverse outcome of such reviews could cause our tax liabilities to increase.

In addition, our tax liabilities are subject to other significant risks and uncertainties, including those arising from potential changes in laws and regulations in the countries in which we do business, the possibility of tax controversy related to adverse determinations with respect to the application of existing laws, changes in our business or structure, and changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities. For example, a number of jurisdictions, including the European Union countries, have enacted the Pillar Two Framework established by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”), which generally imposes a minimum effective tax rate of 15% in each such jurisdiction. These new tax law changes bring significant risks and uncertainties. Any unfavorable resolution of these and other uncertainties may have a significant adverse impact on our effective tax rate and results of operations. If our tax expense were to increase, or if the ultimate determination of our taxes owed is for an amount in excess of the amounts previously accrued, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations.

Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property, Technology, Cybersecurity and Data Privacy

We may not be able to protect our intellectual property rights or may be prevented from using intellectual property necessary for our business.

We rely primarily on trade secret, contract, copyright, patent and trademark laws to protect our proprietary technology. It is possible that third parties may copy or otherwise obtain and use our proprietary technology without authorization or otherwise infringe on our rights. We may also face claims of infringement that could interfere with our ability to use technology that is material to our business operations.

In the future, we may have to rely on litigation to enforce our intellectual property rights, protect our trade secrets, determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others or defend against claims of infringement or invalidity. Any such litigation, whether successful or unsuccessful, could result in substantial costs and the diversion of resources and the attention of management, any of which could negatively affect our business.

We rely on our computer software to receive and properly process internal and external data. Any disruption in the proper functioning of our software due to, for example, erroneous or corrupted data, or cyber-attacks, may cause us to make erroneous trades or suspend our services and could cause us great financial harm. To maintain our competitive advantage, our software is under continuous development. As our systems continue to support increasing volumes and a broader range of products and services, software issues or data errors could have a more significant operational impact.

S-24

We depend on our proprietary technology, and our future results may be impacted if we cannot maintain technological superiority in our industry.

Our success in the past has largely been attributable to our sophisticated proprietary technology that has taken many years to develop. We have benefited from the fact that the type of proprietary technology equivalent to that which we employ has not been widely available to our competitors. If our technology becomes more widely available to our current or future competitors for any reason, our operating results may be adversely affected. Additionally, adoption or development of similar or more advanced technologies by our competitors may require that we devote substantial resources to the development of more advanced technology to remain competitive. The markets in which we compete are characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards and changing trading systems, practices and techniques. Although we have been at the forefront of many of these developments historically, we may not be able to continue to keep up with rapid changes in the future, develop new technology, realize a return on amounts invested in developing new technologies or remain competitive in the future.

New developments in the field of Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) could enable competitors to offer new products or services never before seen in the marketplace. The adoption of AI technologies across the financial services industry may accelerate competitive dynamics and innovation cycles. In addition, increased use of AI by threat actors or market participants could amplify cybersecurity risks, market manipulation risks, or operational complexity. Maintaining technological competitiveness may require significantly larger investments in development resources, infrastructure and talent. Competitors who advance in this space may be able to offer superior products and services and may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We do not have fully redundant systems. System failures could harm our business.

If our systems fail to perform, we could experience unanticipated disruptions in operations, slower response times or decreased levels of customer service and customer satisfaction. Our ability to facilitate transactions successfully and provide high quality customer service also depends on the efficient and uninterrupted operation of our computer and communications hardware and software systems. Our service has experienced periodic system interruptions, which we believe will continue to occur from time to time. Our systems and operations are also potentially vulnerable to damage or interruption from human error, cyber-attacks, natural disasters, power loss, telecommunication failures, break-ins, sabotage, computer viruses, intentional acts of vandalism and similar events. We do not have fully redundant systems, and our formal business continuity plan does not include restoration of all services. It is our intention to provide for and progressively deploy backup facilities for all facilities and infrastructure globally over time. In addition, we do not carry business interruption insurance to compensate for losses that could occur to the extent not required. Any system failure that causes an interruption or degradation of our service could impair our reputation, damage our brand name and materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Failure of third-party systems on which we rely could adversely affect our business.

We rely on certain third-party computer systems or third-party service providers, including but not limited to clearing systems, exchange systems, banking systems, digital asset service providers, Internet services, third-party identity verification services, co-location facilities, communications facilities and other facilities. Any interruption in these third-party services, or deterioration in their performance, could be disruptive to our business. We maintain processes to evaluate third-party service providers and their controls; however, we may have limited ability to influence their operational performance or risk management practices. If our arrangement with any third party is terminated, we may not be able to find an alternative source of systems support on a timely basis or on commercially reasonable terms. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Internet-related issues may reduce or slow the growth in the use of our services in the future.

Our ability to provide services to consumers and increase the scope and quality of such services is limited by and dependent upon the speed and reliability of our customers’ unrestricted access to the Internet, which is beyond our control. If periods of decreased performance, outages or delays on the Internet occur frequently, growth in the usage of our web-based products could be delayed or decline, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

S-25

Our business relies on technology and automation, causing us to be potentially vulnerable to various forms of cyber-attacks by external actors or malicious insiders. Cybersecurity risks continue to evolve, including through more sophisticated attacks, increased use of automation by threat actors and heightened targeting of financial institutions and digital asset-related services. Any resulting security breaches could expose us to liability to one or more third parties, including our customers, and disrupt our operations. Though we take significant steps to mitigate the various cyber threats and devote resources to protecting our systems and networks, we may be unable to anticipate all types of attacks or to implement adequate preventative measures against all eventualities. Regulatory requirements relating to cybersecurity governance, incident response and disclosure may continue to evolve, which could increase compliance efforts and costs.

Our cybersecurity measures may not detect or prevent all attempts to compromise our systems. Furthermore, whereas we expend efforts on evaluating and ensuring adequacy of security measures employed by third-party service providers, we may not be able to exercise full control over them. Failures or deficiencies of such controls could result in adverse impacts to our business, operations, or confidential information, depending on the nature of the services provided. Breaches of our cybersecurity measures or those of our third-party service providers could result in any of the following: unauthorized access to our systems; unauthorized access to and misappropriation of information or data, including confidential or proprietary information about ourselves, third parties with whom we do business or our proprietary systems; viruses, worms, spyware, ransomware, or other malware being placed in our systems; misappropriation, deletion or modification of customer information; or a denial-of-service or other interruptions to our business operations.

To the extent that our activities involve the storage and transmission of proprietary information such as personal financial information, security breaches could expose us to a risk of financial loss, litigation and other liabilities. Any of these events, particularly if they (individually or in the aggregate) result in a loss of confidence in our company or brokerage firms in general, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are subject to stringent and complex data privacy rules. Failure to comply with these rules could expose us to a risk of financial loss, litigation and other liabilities.

We are subject to numerous data privacy rules, including federal, state, local and international laws, as well as industry standards and regulations, and contractual obligations relating to data privacy and the collection, protection, use, retention, security, disclosure, transfer, and other processing of personal data. In the U.S., we are subject to rules including but not limited to the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999; internationally, we are subject to applicable data privacy laws and regulations including but not limited to, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), the U.K. GDPR, and the Personal Information Protection Law of the People’s Republic of China.

We continue our efforts to safeguard personal data entrusted to us in accordance with applicable laws, regulations and our data protection policies. These efforts include taking steps to reduce the potential for the improper use or disclosure of personal data and continuing to monitor both domestic and international regulations related to data privacy to assess requirements and impacts on our business operations.

Rules regarding data privacy worldwide are continuously evolving and developing, increasing in complexity and, as a result, interpretation and implementation standards and enforcement practices are likely to remain uncertain for the foreseeable future. New laws, amendments to or reinterpretations of existing laws, regulations, standards, and other obligations, if applicable, might require us to incur additional costs and change how we use, collect, store, transfer or otherwise process certain types of personal data, to implement new processes to comply with those applicable laws and our customers’ exercise of their rights thereunder. Failure to comply with applicable data privacy laws and regulations, even if no customer's personal data is compromised, could result in significant fines or a significant increase in costs.

A material failure by us or our third-party service providers to comply with our privacy policies or applicable data privacy laws, regulations, industry standards, or rules could have significant consequences. Any security compromise resulting in theft, unauthorized access, acquisition, use, disclosure, or misappropriation of personal data could also have significant consequences. Such events could result in fines, criminal penalties, monetary damages, regulatory enforcement actions, litigation, and reputational harm, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

S-26

Risks Related to Our Cryptocurrency Offering

We rely on third-party Cryptocurrency Service Providers (“CSPs”) to provide our customers the ability to access cryptocurrency trading and custody services.

We have entered into agreements with third-party CSPs, which provide (i) cryptocurrency exchange platforms and services whereby investors can buy and sell certain cryptocurrencies and (ii) custody services for certain cryptocurrencies (collectively, the “Exchange Services”), enabling some of our customers to trade and custody cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Ripple (XRP), Dogecoin (DOGE) and several other cryptocurrencies3, (collectively, "Cryptocurrency Assets") via CSPs. A disruption in our partnership with a CSP or in the Exchange Services provided by a CSP could have adverse effects on our customers’ confidence in our cryptocurrency offering through CSPs and on our business.

A data breach at a CSP may result in irreversible losses, which would adversely affect our customers and our business.

The CSPs are responsible for securing the customers’ Cryptocurrency Assets and protecting them from loss or theft.

Access to the Cryptocurrency Assets is controllable only by the possessor of the unique private key(s) relating to the digital wallet in which such Cryptocurrency Assets are held. To the extent any of the CSPs’ private keys are lost, destroyed, unable to be accessed by the CSPs, or otherwise compromised and no backup of such private key(s) is accessible, the CSPs may be unable to access the Cryptocurrency Assets held in the respective wallets. In addition, neither the CSPs nor any cryptocurrency custodian can provide absolute assurance that any or all of the CSPs’ wallets will not be hacked or compromised such that the private keys are obtained by a third party or otherwise compromised in a manner such that Cryptocurrency Assets are sent to one or more addresses that the CSPs do not control, which could result in the loss of some or all of the Cryptocurrency Assets that the CSPs hold in custody on behalf of our customers.

Eligible customers of IB LLC or IBUK can enroll to access a digital asset exchange and custody services provided by one or more CSPs to buy, sell and hold Cryptocurrency Assets in an account in the customer’s name at the CSP. IB LLC and IBUK do not provide execution, custody or safeguarding services for the customers’ Cryptocurrency Assets and do not maintain (or have access to) the cryptographic key information and wallets necessary to access the Cryptocurrency Assets, nor do IB LLC or IBUK have any legal title or claim to those Cryptocurrency Assets. The agreement the customer signs with IB LLC before the customer is permitted to access the CSP’s services through IB LLC’s platform provides that:

[Customer] acknowledges and agrees that [IB LLC] is not responsible for any trading or other losses (including, without limitation, losses due to theft, fraud, cybersecurity breach, loss of control of private keys, or any other loss arising from trading, transferring, or holding digital assets with [the CSP]) resulting directly or indirectly from or in connection with [Customer’s] relationship with [the CSP] and/or [Customer’s] trading, transferring, or holding of digital assets, including activity or holdings in the [CSP] Account.

Customers of IBUK sign an agreement containing a substantially identical provision prior to being permitted to access the CSP’s services through IBUK’s platform.

3 See https://www.interactivebrokers.com/lib/cstools/faq/#/content/182856890 for more information on the availability of cryptocurrencies for trading through our platform.

S-27

Eligible customers of IBHK can enroll to trade and hold Cryptocurrency Assets through a relationship IBHK has established with a CSP, which is an SFC-licensed digital asset exchange and custodian. The Cryptocurrency Assets are sub-custodied by the CSP on an omnibus basis for the benefit of the customers of IBHK. IBHK notifies its customers that exchange and sub-custody services are provided by a CSP. IBHK does not maintain (or have access to) the cryptographic key information and wallets necessary to access the Cryptocurrency Assets, nor does IBHK have any beneficial claim to those Cryptocurrency Assets. The CSP is responsible for securing the customers’ Cryptocurrency Assets and protecting them from loss or theft, and the SFC requires the CSP to maintain adequate controls and insurance against the risk of theft or loss of the customers’ Cryptocurrency Assets. The agreement the customer signs with IBHK before the customer is permitted to access digital asset trading provides that:

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Rules, [IBHK] is not liable to [Customer] for loss arising from or attributable to the insolvency of any [CSP], in the event of hacking or otherwise caused by the default of the [CSP], where [IBHK] has not failed to exercise reasonable care and diligence in the selection, appointment and ongoing monitoring of the [CSP], except (i) such loss arising from the gross negligence, willful default or fraud of [IBHK], or (ii) to the extent prohibited under applicable Rules. Notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms, in the absence of either (a) a failure by [IBHK] to exercise reasonable care and diligence in the selection, appointment and ongoing monitoring of the [CSP], or (b) gross negligence, wilful default or fraud on the part of [IBHK], [IBHK] will only be obliged to return Virtual Assets held for [Customer] with the [CSP] who is insolvent, or which Virtual Assets have otherwise been subjected to loss due to an event of hacking, embezzlement, or theft at the [CSP] or which losses are otherwise caused by the default of the [CSP], solely if and to the extent that those Virtual Assets or equivalent value are recovered by [IBHK] from the [CSP]. Unless otherwise provided under applicable Rules, [Customer] hereby agree[s] not to bring any action against [IBHK] on any claim arising from a loss occurring at the [CSP], in the absence of circumstances addressed under (a) or (b) above, so long as [IBHK] makes commercially reasonable efforts to assert a claim for recovery against the [CSP].

The CSPs’ failure to safeguard the Cryptocurrency Assets may result in losses to our customers which could have adverse effects on our customers’ confidence in our cryptocurrency offering through CSPs and on our business.

We may encounter technical issues which would result in disruption or interruption of our customers’ access to their CSP accounts.

Both we and the CSPs rely on computer software, hardware and telecommunications infrastructure and networking to provide the respective services to our customers with respect to trading and custody of the Cryptocurrency Assets. These computer-based systems and services are inherently vulnerable to disruption, delay, or failure, which may cause our customers to lose access to our trading platform and the Exchange Services provided by the CSPs. Any such disruption could have an adverse effect on our customers’ confidence in our cryptocurrency offering through the CSPs and an adverse effect on our business.

Regulation of the cryptocurrency industry continues to evolve and is subject to change. Securities and commodities laws and regulations and other bodies of laws can apply to certain cryptocurrency assets. These laws and regulations are complex and the interpretations of them may be subject to challenge by the relevant regulators. Future regulatory developments, including the treatment of certain cryptocurrency assets for U.S. federal income tax and foreign tax purposes, could have an adverse effect on our cryptocurrency offering through CSPs and on our business.

Risks Related to the Offering

The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly, and this may make it difficult for holders to resell our common stock when they want or at prices that they find attractive.

The price of our common stock on Nasdaq constantly changes. We expect that the market price of our common stock will continue to fluctuate. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include:

•

changes in market conditions;

•

quarterly variations in our results of operations;

•

results of operations that vary from the expectations of management, securities analysts and investors;

•

changes in expectations as to our future financial performance;

•

announcements of strategic developments, significant contracts, acquisitions and other material events by us or our competitors;

•

the operating and securities price performance of other companies that investors believe are comparable to us;

•

future sales of our equity or equity-related securities;

•

changes in the economy and the financial markets;

•

departures of key personnel;

•

changes in governmental regulations;

•

geopolitical conditions, such as acts or threats of terrorism or military conflicts; and

•

the impact of a public health emergency.

In addition, in prior years, global equity markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market price of securities issued by many companies for reasons often unrelated to their operating performance. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock, regardless of our results of operations.

The shares of common stock are equity interests and are subordinate to our existing and future indebtedness.

The shares of common stock are equity interests. This means the shares of common stock will rank junior to all of our indebtedness and to other non-equity claims on us and our assets available to satisfy claims on us, including claims in a bankruptcy or similar proceeding. Future indebtedness may restrict payment of dividends on the common stock.

Additionally, unlike indebtedness, where principal and interest customarily are payable on specified due dates, in the case of common stock, (i) dividends are payable only when and if declared by our Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee of the board and (ii) as a corporation, we are restricted to only making dividend payments and redemption payments out of legally available assets. Further, the common stock places no restrictions on our business or operations or on our ability to incur indebtedness or engage in any transactions, subject only to the voting rights available to stockholders generally.

There may be future sales or issuances of our common stock, which will dilute the ownership interests of stockholders and may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

We may issue additional common stock, including securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, common stock or substantially similar securities, which may result in dilution to our stockholders. In addition, our stockholders may be further diluted by future issuances under our stock incentive plans. The market price of our common stock could decline as a result of sales or issuances of a large number of shares of our common stock or similar securities in the market after this offering or the perception that such sales or issuances could occur.

S-29

Before you purchase our securities, you should read this prospectus supplement and the documents that we reference or incorporate by reference in this prospectus supplement, the prospectus or the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement is a part completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. Our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects may change. We may not update these forward-looking statements, even though our situation may change in the future, unless we have obligations under the federal securities laws to update and disclose material developments related to previously disclosed information. We qualify all of the information presented or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, and particularly our forward-looking statements, by these cautionary statements.

USE OF PROCEEDS

All of the shares of common stock offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement are to be issued to Holdings in exchange for membership interests in IBG LLC equal in number to such number of shares of common stock issued by us. As a result, we will not receive any cash proceeds from the issuance of such shares of common stock.

DILUTION

The issuance of our common stock to acquire IBG LLC membership interests is not expected to have a material effect on the existing holders of our common stock, as we would then own a larger portion of IBG LLC. As a result, while such transactions will have the effect of diluting your percentage ownership in us, we will own a larger portion of IBG LLC and, therefore, you will continue to own the same economic interest in the underlying IBG LLC business.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

All of the shares of common stock offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement are to be issued to Holdings for distribution in-kind to certain of its members in exchange for membership interests in IBG LLC equal in number to such number of shares of common stock issued by us. Certain of our officers and directors are members of Holdings and have elected to redeem a portion of their Holdings membership interests in the offering. Such officers and directors represent approximately 32% of the interests subject to this redemption. Mr. Earl H. Nemser, through a limited liability company owned by Mr. Nemser and his affiliates, is redeeming 803,568 Holdings shares.

LEGAL MATTERS

The validity of the securities offered hereby will be passed upon for us by Dechert LLP, New York, New York.

EXPERTS

The financial statements of Interactive Brokers Group, Inc. as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, and the effectiveness of Interactive Brokers Group, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting have been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their reports.

Our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects may change. We may not update these forward-looking statements, even though our situation may change in the future, unless we have obligations under the federal securities laws to update and disclose material developments related to previously disclosed information. We qualify all of the information presented or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and particularly our forward-looking statements, by these cautionary statements.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of the common stock to purchase IBG LLC membership interests from IBG Holdings LLC. Alternatively, we may issue shares of common stock to IBG LLC in exchange for newly issued membership interests equal in number to such number of shares of common stock issued by us, in which case we will not receive any proceeds from the issuance of such shares of common stock. As described below in “Description of Capital Stock – Class A common stock – Other matters”, no material dilution is expected.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following is a summary of our capital stock and provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as each is currently in effect. This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, copies of which are incorporated by reference as exhibits to this registration statement.

Our authorized capital stock consists of 4,000,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share, 1,000 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share and 10,000 shares of preferred stock. In this section, when we refer to “common stock,” we are referring to Class A common stock and Class B common stock, taken as a whole.

Common Stock

Except as otherwise provided in our organizational documents and applicable law, all shares of common stock are identical and entitle the holder to the same rights and privileges and subject them to the same limitations and restrictions. The principal difference between the Class A and Class B common stock concerns relative voting rights.

Class A common stock

Voting rights

The holders of Class A common stock are entitled to one vote per share. Holders of shares of Class A common stock are not entitled to cumulate their votes in the election of directors. Generally, all matters to be voted on by stockholders must be approved by a majority (or, in the case of election of directors, by a plurality) of the votes entitled to be cast by all shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock present in person or represented by proxy, voting together as a single class. Except as otherwise provided by law, amendments to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation must be approved by a majority of the combined voting power of all shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock, voting together as a single class. However, amendments to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation that would alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the Class A common stock so as to affect them adversely also must be approved by a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the shares affected by the amendment, voting as a separate class. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation to increase or decrease the authorized shares of any class of common stock (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) shall be approved upon the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock, voting together as a single class.

Dividend rights

Subject to the rights of any Preferred Stock, holders of Class A common stock share ratably (based on the number of shares of common stock held) in any dividend declared by our board of directors. Dividends consisting of shares of Class A common stock may be paid only as follows: (i) shares of Class A common stock may be paid only to holders of shares of Class A common stock; and (ii) shares are paid proportionally with respect to each outstanding share of Class A common stock. We may not subdivide or combine shares of either class of common stock without at the same time proportionally subdividing or combining shares of the other class. Dividends payable to holders of Class B common stock can only be paid if dividends in the same amount per share are simultaneously paid to holders of Class A common stock.

Liquidation rights

On our liquidation, dissolution or winding up and subject to the rights of any Preferred Stock, all holders of Class A common stock are entitled to share ratably in any assets available for distribution to holders of shares of common stock.

Other matters

In accordance with the amended and restated limited liability company agreement pursuant to which IBG LLC is governed, we intend to keep the number of outstanding IBG LLC membership interests owned by us equal to the number of outstanding shares of our common stock at all times. This means that as we issue additional shares of our common stock, we would expect to use the proceeds to acquire a corresponding number of shares in IBG LLC. To the extent this occurs, existing common stockholders experience no material dilution with regard to their equity interest in IBG LLC as a result of the issuance of additional shares of our common stock.

In the event of our merger or consolidation with or into another company in connection with which shares of either class of common stock are converted into or exchangeable for shares of stock, other securities or property (including cash), all holders of common stock, regardless of class, are entitled to receive the same kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property (including cash), provided that if shares of either class of common stock are exchanged for shares of capital stock, such shares exchanged for or changed into may differ to the extent that the Class A common stock and the Class B common stock differ.

No shares of either class of common stock are subject to redemption or have preemptive rights to purchase additional shares of either class of common stock. All outstanding shares of Class A common stock have been legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

Class B common stock

Voting rights

The holders of Class B common stock, in the aggregate, are entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of IBG LLC membership interests held by such holders. IBG Holdings LLC, as the sole holder of the Class B common stock, is entitled to approximately 1,251 million votes, as of June 30, 2026.

Holders of shares of Class B common stock are not entitled to cumulate their votes in the election of directors. Generally, all matters to be voted on by stockholders must be approved by a majority (or, in the case of election of directors, by a plurality) of the votes entitled to be cast by all shares of Class B common stock and Class A common stock present in person or represented by proxy, voting together as a single class. Except as otherwise provided by law, amendments to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation must be approved by a majority of the combined voting power of all shares of Class B common stock and Class A common stock, voting together as a single class. However, amendments to the certificate of incorporation that would alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the Class B common stock so as to affect them adversely also must be approved by a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the shares affected by the amendment, voting as a separate class. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation to increase or decrease the authorized shares of any class of common stock (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) shall be approved upon the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Class B common stock and Class A common stock, voting together as a single class.

Dividend rights

Subject to the rights of any Preferred Stock, holders of Class B common stock share ratably (based on the number of shares of common stock held) in any dividend declared by the board of directors. Dividends consisting of shares of Class B common stock may be paid only as follows: (i) shares of Class B common stock may be paid only to holders of shares of Class B common stock; and (ii) shares are paid proportionally with respect to each outstanding share of Class B common stock. We may not subdivide or combine shares of either class of common stock without at the same time proportionally subdividing or combining shares of the other class. Dividends payable to holders of Class B common stock can only be paid if dividends in the same amount per share are simultaneously paid to holders of Class A common stock.

Liquidation rights

On our liquidation, dissolution or winding up and subject to the rights of any Preferred Stock, all holders of Class B common stock are entitled to share ratably in any assets available for distribution to holders of shares of common stock.

Other matters

In the event of our merger or consolidation with or into another company in connection with which shares of either class of common stock are converted into or exchangeable for shares of stock, other securities or property (including cash), all holders of common stock, regardless of class, are entitled to receive the same kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property (including cash), provided that, if shares of either class of common stock are exchanged for shares of capital stock, such shares exchanged for or changed into may differ to the extent that the Class A common stock and the Class B common stock differ.

No shares of either class of common stock are subject to redemption or have preemptive rights to purchase additional shares of either class of common stock. All outstanding shares of Class B common stock have been legally issued and are fully paid and nonassessable.

Preferred Stock

Our board of directors has the authority, without further action by our stockholders, to issue preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions thereof. These rights, preferences, and privileges include dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preferences, sinking fund terms, and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation of such series, any or all of which may be greater than the rights of our common stock. The issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of our holders of common stock and the likelihood that such holders will receive dividend payments and payments upon liquidation. In addition, the issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change in our control.

IBG LLC Membership Interests and Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of IBG LLC

Our primary asset is our ownership of approximately 26.5% of the IBG LLC membership interests, and our controlling interest and related contractual rights as the sole managing member of IBG LLC, as of June 30, 2026. There are approximately 1,701.4 million IBG LLC membership interests issued and outstanding, approximately 450.7 million, or 26.5%, of which are owned by us, and approximately 1,250.7 million, or 73.5%, of which are owned by IBG Holdings LLC as of June 30, 2026. All IBG LLC membership interests are identical and have the same voting and other rights.

Our only business is to act as the sole managing member of IBG LLC, and, as such, we operate and control all of the business and affairs of IBG LLC, have all of the rights and powers which may be possessed by managing members under the Connecticut Limited Liability Company Act and are able to consolidate IBG LLC’s financial results into our financial statements. Except with the prior written consent of both members of IBG LLC, we do not have the authority to:

•

conduct any act in contravention of IBG LLC’s amended and restated limited liability company agreement;

•

knowingly perform any act that would subject any member to personal liability for debts or obligations of IBG LLC in any jurisdiction;

•

engage in any activity which substantially changes the nature of IBG LLC’s business;

•

sell all or a substantial portion of the property of IBG LLC;

•

merge or consolidate IBG LLC with or into another entity;

•

convert IBG LLC, by whatever means, into a corporation or another form of business entity; or

•

dissolve or liquidate IBG LLC.

The amended and restated limited liability company agreement of IBG LLC provides that the number of IBG LLC membership interests will equal the sum of the number of shares of common stock outstanding and the number of outstanding membership interests of IBG Holdings LLC. From time to time and without regard to the exchange agreement among us, IBG LLC, IBG Holdings LLC and the historical members of IBG LLC, we may issue additional shares of common stock under incentive plans for employees (including our 2007 Stock Incentive Plan), in exchange for capital or in other arrangements that benefit IBG LLC. In any such case, it is the intention of the members that a corresponding number of IBG LLC membership interests shall be issued to us in exchange for the consideration received by us for our issuance of additional shares of common stock. If any shares of common stock are issued subject to restrictions resulting in forfeiture to us or are otherwise redeemed by us, a corresponding number of IBG LLC membership interests shall be surrendered to IBG LLC by us for cancellation. Similarly, if any common shares of IBG Holdings LLC are forfeited to IBG Holdings

LLC and as a result thereof are no longer outstanding, a corresponding number of IBG LLC membership interests shall be surrendered to IBG LLC by IBG Holdings LLC for cancellation. These and other adjustments to the number of IBG LLC membership interests outstanding may be made from time to time as necessary to properly reflect the relative interests of the members.

In accordance with the amended and restated limited liability company agreement pursuant to which IBG LLC is governed, net profits, net losses and distributions of IBG LLC are allocated and made to its members pro rata in accordance with the respective percentages of their membership interests in IBG LLC. Accordingly, net profits and net losses of IBG LLC are allocated, and distributions by IBG LLC are made, approximately 26.5% to us and approximately 73.5% to IBG Holdings LLC as of June 30, 2026.

Pursuant to the terms of the amended and restated limited liability company agreement of IBG LLC, we, as the managing member of IBG LLC, can cause IBG LLC to make distributions to its members, including us, to the extent necessary to enable such members to pay taxes incurred with respect to their allocable shares of taxable income of IBG LLC, using a tax rate no less than the actual combined federal, state and local income tax rates applicable to our allocable share of taxable income. Any distributions by IBG LLC in excess of such tax distributions will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on IBG LLC’s strategic plans, financial results and condition, contractual, legal, financial and regulatory restrictions on distributions (including the ability of IBG LLC to make distributions under the covenants in its senior secured revolving credit facility), capital requirements, business prospects and such other factors as our board of directors, in exercising our authority as managing member of IBG LLC, considers to be relevant to such determination.

Anti-takeover Effects of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws

Certain provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our bylaws could have anti-takeover effects. These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of our corporate policies formulated by our board of directors. In addition, these provisions also are intended to ensure that our board of directors will have sufficient time to fulfill its fiduciary duties to us and our stockholders. These provisions also are designed to reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited proposal for our takeover that does not contemplate the acquisition of all of our outstanding shares or an unsolicited proposal for the restructuring or sale of all or part of us. The provisions are also intended to discourage certain tactics that may be used in proxy fights. However, these provisions could delay or frustrate the removal of incumbent directors or the assumption of control of us by the holder of a large block of common stock, and could also discourage or make more difficult a merger, tender offer, or proxy contest, even if such event would be favorable to the interest of our stockholders.

Special meetings of stockholders. Our bylaws preclude our stockholders from calling special meetings of stockholders or requiring the board of directors or any officer to call such a meeting or from proposing business at such a meeting. Our bylaws provide that only a majority of our board of directors, the chairman of the board or the chief executive officer can call a special meeting of stockholders. Because our stockholders do not have the right to call a special meeting, a stockholder cannot force stockholder consideration of a proposal over the opposition of the board of directors by calling a special meeting of stockholders prior to the time a majority of the board of directors, the chairman of the board or the chief executive officer believes the matter should be considered or until the next annual meeting provided that the requestor met the notice requirements. The restriction on the ability of stockholders to call a special meeting means that a proposal to replace board members also can be delayed until the next annual meeting.

Other limitations on stockholder actions. Advance notice is required for stockholders to nominate directors or to submit proposals for consideration at meetings of stockholders. This provision may have the effect of precluding the conduct of certain business at a meeting if the proper notice is not provided and may also discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our company. In addition, the ability of our stockholders to remove directors without cause is precluded.

Section 203 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware

We are subject to Section 203 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, which prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years following the date that such stockholder became an interested stockholder, with the following exceptions:

•

prior to such date, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder;

•

upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the number of shares outstanding those shares owned by persons who are directors and

also officers and by employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; and

•
