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

Commission revenue increased 27% to 516 million on higher customer trading volumes. Customer trading volume in stocks, options and futures increased 31%, 24% and 18%, respectively.

Net interest income increased 9% to $860 million on higher average customer credit balances and securities lending activity. Net interest income includes an approximately $26 million one-time credit related to recovery of taxes withheld at source.

Other fees and services decreased 9% to $62 million, led by a decrease of $7 million in risk exposure fees, which was partially offset by a $2 million increase in FDIC sweep fees.

Execution, clearing and distribution fees increased 1% to $116 million, driven by a new FINRA Consolidated Audit Trail ("CAT") fee initiated during the fourth quarter of 2024 and higher customer trading volumes in stocks, options and futures, mostly offset by greater capture of liquidity rebates from certain exchanges.

General and administrative expenses increased 17% to $61 million, driven primarily by an increase of $8 million in advertising expenses.

Pretax profit margin for the current quarter was 75% both as reported and as adjusted. For the year-ago quarter, pretax margin was 72% as reported and 73% as adjusted.

Total equity of $18.5 billion.

The Interactive Brokers Group, Inc. Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.08 per share. This dividend is payable on September 12, 2025, to shareholders of record as of September 1, 2025.
