CHICAGO, Aug. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Cboe Global Markets, Inc. (Cboe: CBOE) today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2024.
“Cboe reported another strong quarter with record net revenue of $514 million, diluted EPS of $1.33, and adjusted diluted EPS1 of $2.15, up a robust 21% from the second quarter of 2023,” said Fredric Tomczyk, Cboe Global Markets Chief Executive Officer. “The second quarter results illustrate the durability of the Cboe business model with year-to-date net revenue increasing by a strong 8% and adjusted diluted EPS1 coming in 17% higher as compared to first half 2023 levels. I am incredibly pleased with the progress we continue to make as we work through our strategic review, the early output of which is evidenced by our solid expense management trends, improved year-over-year EBITDA margins, and additive capital allocation actions with $90 million of share repurchases during the second quarter and a total of $180 million for the first half of the year. Each component of our exchange ecosystem performed well during the second quarter, and we are well positioned for the second half of the year.”
“Cboe reported strong 10% year-over-year net revenue growth in the second quarter as each category of our business posted solid year-over-year trends,” said Jill Griebenow, Cboe Global Markets Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer. “Cash and Spot Markets performance was robust with net revenues growing 15% during the second quarter of 2024. Derivative trends were also solid, up 11% year-over-year, and Data and Access Solutions delivered 5% year-over-year net revenue growth. Notably, adjusted EBITDA margins1 reached 67% through the first half of 2024, up more than two percentage points as compared to the first half of 2023, and we returned nearly $300 million in capital to shareholders in the form of share repurchases and dividends. Moving forward, we anticipate organic total net revenue growth2 to finish in the 6-8% range, up from our prior guidance of the higher end of 5-7%. We are reaffirming our Data and Access Solutions organic net revenue growth2 range of 7-10%, but anticipate finishing at the lower end of the guidance range. Additionally, we are reaffirming our full year adjusted operating expense guidance2 range of $795 to $805 million. We have produced strong results for the first half of 2024 and look forward to delivering durable returns for shareholders in the quarters ahead.”

(2)Specific quantifications of the amounts that would be required to reconcile the company’s organic net revenue growth guidance and adjusted operating expenses guidance are not available. The company believes that there is uncertainty and unpredictability with respect to certain of its GAAP measures, primarily related to acquisition-related revenues and costs that would be required to reconcile to GAAP revenues less cost of revenues, GAAP operating expenses and GAAP effective tax rate, which preclude the company from providing accurate guidance on certain forward-looking GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations. The company believes that providing estimates of the amounts that would be required to reconcile the range of the company’s organic net revenue growth guidance and adjusted operating expenses would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors for the reasons identified above. |

- Total revenues less cost of revenues (referred to as “net revenue2“) of $513.8 million increased 10 percent, compared to $467.1 million in the prior-year period, a result of increases in cash and spot markets, derivatives markets, and data and access solutions net revenue.
- Total operating expenses were $303.7 million versus $222.3 million in the second quarter of 2023, an increase of $81.4 million, primarily related to the impairment of intangible assets recognized in the Digital reporting unit. Adjusted operating expenses1 of $197.1 million increased 2 percent compared to $192.3 million in the second quarter of 2023. This increase was primarily due to higher compensation and benefits and professional fees and outside services, partially offset by a decline in travel and promotional expenses.
- The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2024 was 30.8 percent as compared with 30.6 percent in the second quarter of 2023. The higher effective tax rate in 2024 is primarily due to the valuation allowance associated with the impairment of the Globacap investment. The effective tax rate on adjusted earnings1 was 29.5 percent, down 0.2 basis points when compared with 29.7 percent in last year’s second quarter.
- Diluted EPS for the second quarter of 2024 decreased 15 percent to $1.33 compared to the second quarter of 2023. Adjusted diluted EPS1 of $2.15 increased 21 percent compared to 2023 second quarter results.

Discussion of Results by Business Segment:
Options:
- Options net revenue of $306.7 million was up $23.5 million, or 8 percent, from the second quarter of 2023. Net transaction and clearing fees1 increased primarily as a result of a 9 percent increase in index options trading volumes versus the second quarter of 2023. Access and capacity fees and market data fees were 3 percent higher than the second quarter 2023.
- Net transaction and clearing fees1 increased $27.3 million, or 11 percent, reflecting a 1 percent increase in total options average daily volume (“ADV”) and a 9 percent increase in total options RPC compared to the second quarter 2023. The increase in total options RPC was due to a mix shift, with index options representing a higher percentage of total options volume.
- Cboe’s Options exchanges had total market share of 31.2 percent for the second quarter of 2024 compared to 33.3 percent in the second quarter of 2023, a result of lower multi-list market share as compared to the second quarter of 2023.
North American (N.A.) Equities:
- N.A. Equities record net revenue of $98.3 million increased $7.5 million, or 8 percent versus the second quarter of 2023, reflecting higher net transaction and clearing fees1, proprietary market data fees, and access and capacity fees.
- Net transaction and clearing fees1 increased by $7.0 million, or 25 percent, compared to the second quarter of 2023. The increase was driven by stronger U.S. exchange and off-exchange net capture rates, as well as stronger volumes and market share in Canadian Equities as compared to the second quarter of 2023.
- Cboe’s U.S. Equities exchanges had market share of 11.4 percent for the second quarter of 2024 compared to 12.7 percent in the second quarter of 2023 given higher off-exchange and closing auction share. Cboe’s U.S. Equities off-exchange market share was 17.8 percent, down from 19.9 percent in the second quarter of 2023 as overall industry alternative trading systems (“ATS”) market share declined as a percentage of off-exchange share. Canadian Equities market share rose to 15.0 percent as compared to 14.5 percent in the second quarter of 2023.
Europe and Asia Pacific (APAC):
- Europe and APAC net revenue of $54.3 million increased by 15 percent compared to the second quarter of 2023, reflecting growth in transaction and non-transaction revenues. On a constant currency basis2, net revenues were $55.2 million, up 17 percent on a year-over-year basis. European Equities average daily notional value (“ADNV”) traded on Cboe European Equities was €9.6 billion, up 4 percent compared to the second quarter of 2023 given a 10 percent increase in industry market volumes, partially offset by lower market share. Japanese Equities ADNV was 71 percent higher and Australian Equities ADNV was 12 percent higher than the second quarter of 2023.
- For the second quarter of 2024, Cboe European Equities had 22.5 percent market share, down from 23.8 percent in the second quarter of 2023. Total market share was negatively impacted by elevated closing auction activity on listing venues and lower lit book market share. Cboe European Equities net capture rate increased 9 percent given a mix shift to higher capture products. Cboe Australia had 20.8 percent market share for the second quarter of 2024, up from 18.2 percent in the second quarter of 2023. Cboe Japan grew market share to 5.5 percent in the second quarter of 2024 from 4.1 percent in the second quarter of 2023.
Futures:
- Futures net revenue of $34.8 million increased $5.6 million compared to the second quarter of 2023 due to an increase in net transaction and clearing fees1.
- Net transaction and clearing fees1 increased $5.7 million, reflecting a 28 percent increase in ADV during the quarter.
Global FX:
- Global FX record net revenue of $19.8 million increased 11 percent, primarily due to higher net transaction and clearing fees1. ADNV traded on the Cboe FX platform was $47.7 billion for the quarter, up 12 percent compared to last year’s second quarter, and net capture rate per one million dollars traded was $2.69 for the quarter, up 1 percent compared to $2.66 in the second quarter of 2023.
- Cboe FX market share was 20.2 percent for the quarter compared to 19.5 percent in last year’s second quarter.
Digital:
- Cboe announced the realignment of the Cboe Digital asset business on April 25, 2024. Cboe plans to transition digital asset derivatives trading and clearing into existing derivatives and clearing business lines, pending regulatory review, and has wound down trading on the Cboe Digital spot digital asset trading market. The Digital segment recorded an impairment of intangible assets of $81.0 million related to the Cboe Digital spot market wind down in the second quarter of 2024.

2024 Fiscal Year Financial Guidance
Cboe provided guidance for the 2024 fiscal year as noted below.
- Organic total net revenue growth1 is expected to be in the range of 6 to 8 percentage points, up from previous guidance calling for the higher end of 5 to 7 percentage points in 2024.
- Anticipates lower end of organic net revenue1 growth range from Data and Access Solutions of 7 to 10 percentage points in 2024.
- Reaffirms adjusted operating expenses1 in 2024 are expected to be in the range of $795 to $805 million. The guidance excludes the expected amortization of acquired intangible assets of $92 million; the company reflects the exclusion of this amount in its non-GAAP reconciliation.
- Reaffirms depreciation and amortization expense for 2024 is expected to be in the range of $43 to $47 million, excluding the expected amortization of acquired intangible assets.
- Reaffirms minority investments are expected to contribute a $37 to $43 million benefit in 2024 to non-operating (expenses) income. Anticipates that $33 to $37 million of the benefit will come in the earnings on investments line and $4 to $6 million through the other (expense) income, net line.
- Reaffirms the effective tax rate on adjusted earnings1 for the full year 2024 is expected to be in the range of 28.5 to 30.5 percent. Significant changes in trading volume, expenses, tax laws or rates and other items could materially impact this expectation.
- Reaffirms capital expenditures for 2024 are expected to be in the range of $51 to $57 million.
(1)Specific quantifications of the amounts that would be required to reconcile the company’s organic and inorganic growth guidance, adjusted operating expenses guidance, annualized adjusted operating expenses guidance, and the effective tax rate on adjusted earnings guidance are not available. Acquisitions are considered organic after 12 months of closing. The company believes that there is uncertainty and unpredictability with respect to certain of its GAAP measures, primarily related to acquisition-related revenues and costs that would be required to reconcile to GAAP revenues less cost of revenues, GAAP operating expenses and GAAP effective tax rate, which preclude the company from providing accurate guidance on certain forward-looking GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations. The company believes that providing estimates of the amounts that would be required to reconcile the range of the company’s organic growth, adjusted operating expenses, annualized adjusted operating expenses, and the effective tax rate on adjusted earnings would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors for the reasons identified above. |

Non-GAAP Information
In addition to disclosing results determined in accordance with GAAP, Cboe Global Markets has disclosed certain non-GAAP measures of operating performance. These measures are not in accordance with, or a substitute for, GAAP, and may be different from or inconsistent with non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The non-GAAP measures provided in this press release include adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income allocated to common stockholders, adjusted diluted earnings per share, effective tax rate on adjusted earnings, adjusted cash, net revenues in constant currency, EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin.
Management believes that the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release provide additional and comparative information to assess trends in our core operations and a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by management are provided as additional information to investors in order to provide them with an alternative method for assessing our financial condition and operating results.
Amortization expense of acquired intangible assets: We amortize intangible assets acquired in connection with various acquisitions. Amortization of intangible assets is inconsistent in amount and frequency and is significantly affected by the timing and size of our acquisitions. As such, if intangible asset amortization is included in performance measures, it is more difficult to assess the day-to-day operating performance of the businesses, the relative operating performance of the businesses between periods and the earnings power of the company. Therefore, we believe performance measures excluding intangible asset amortization expense provide investors with an additional basis for comparison across accounting periods.
Acquisition-related costs: From time to time, we have pursued acquisitions, which have resulted in expenses which would not otherwise have been incurred in the normal course of the company’s business operations. These expenses include integration costs, as well as legal, due diligence, impairment charges, and other third-party transaction costs. The frequency and the amount of such expenses vary significantly based on the size, timing and complexity of the transaction. Accordingly, we exclude these costs for purposes of calculating non-GAAP measures which provide an additional analysis of Cboe’s ongoing operating performance or comparisons in Cboe’s performance between periods.
The tables below show the reconciliation of each financial measure from GAAP to non-GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures exclude the impact of those items detailed below and are referred to as adjusted financial measures.

(1) This amount includes ongoing acquisition-related costs primarily from the Company’s Cboe Digital, Cboe Canada, and Cboe Asia Pacific acquisitions, which is included in acquisition-related costs on the condensed consolidated statements of income. |
(2) This amount represents the amortization of acquired intangible assets related to the Company’s acquisitions, which is included in depreciation and amortization on the condensed consolidated statements of income. |
(3) This amount represents the revaluation and the gain associated with the wind down of the Cboe Digital non-recourse notes and warrants, which is included in other (expense) income, net on the condensed consolidated statements of income, as well as the contra-revenue that was reversed as a result of the wind down of the syndication, which is included in transaction and clearing fees in the condensed consolidated statements of income. |
(4) This amount represents the loss related to contingent consideration liabilities achieved related to the acquisition of Cboe Asia Pacific, which is included in other expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of income. |
(5) This amount represents the impairment of intangible assets related to the Cboe Digital wind down, which is included in impairment of intangible assets on the condensed consolidated statements of income. |
(6) This amount represents the impairment of investment related to the Company’s minority investment in Globacap Technology Limited, which is included in other (expense) income, net on the condensed consolidated statements of income. |
(7) This amount represents certain wind down costs related to Cboe Digital, which are included in compensation and benefits on the condensed consolidated statements of income. |
(8) This amount represents the gain on the sale of the Company’s former headquarters, which is included in other (expense) income, net on the condensed consolidated statements of income. |
(9) This amount represents the dividend from the Company’s minority ownership of Vest Group Inc., which is included in other (expense) income, net on the condensed consolidated statements of income. In 2024, the Company determined the dividend to be a recurring event and therefore has been excluded from the non-GAAP adjustments in 2024 and going forward. |
(10) This amount represents the tax reserves related to Section 199 matters. |
(11) This amount represents the valuation allowance related to the impairment of the Company’s minority investment in Globacap Technology Limited. |
(12) The company sponsors deferred compensation plans held in a trust. The expenses or income related to the deferred compensation plans are included in “Compensation and benefits” ($1.4 million and $2.0 million in expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $0.1 million and $5.2 million in expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively), and are directly offset by deferred compensation income, expenses and dividends included within “Other income, net” ($1.4 million and $2.0 million in income, expense and dividends in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $0.1 million and $5.2 million in income, expense and dividends in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively), on the condensed consolidated statements of income. The deferred compensation plans’ expenses are not excluded from “adjusted operating expenses” and do not have an impact on “Income before income taxes.” |
(13) Adjusted operating margin represents adjusted operating income divided by adjusted revenue less cost of revenue. |
EBITDA Reconciliations
EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA are widely used non-GAAP financial measures of operating performance. EBITDA margin represents EBITDA divided by revenues less cost of revenues (net revenue). It is presented as supplemental information that the company believes is useful to investors to evaluate its results because it excludes certain items that are not directly related to the company’s core operating performance. EBITDA is calculated by adding back to net income interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adding back to EBITDA acquisition-related costs, change in contingent consideration, impairment of intangible assets, impairment of investment, costs related to the Cboe Digital wind down, gain on sale of property held for sale, gain on Cboe Digital non-recourse notes and warrants wind down, and income from investment. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as substitutes either for net income, as an indicator of the company’s operating performance, or for cash flow, as a measure of the company’s liquidity. In addition, because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be calculated identically by all companies, the presentation here may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue.
