Investing.com -- Interactive Brokers Group reported first-quarter earnings that slightly beat Wall Street expectations, as higher revenue helped offset market volatility and interest rate uncertainty. But shares were down 4% in extended trading.
The electronic brokerage posted earnings per share of $1.88, topping analysts’ average estimate of $1.87, at a time when trading activity and customer engagement remain resilient despite macroeconomic headwinds, including shifting rate expectations and geopolitical tensions.
Revenue rose to $1.43 billion, ahead of the consensus forecast of $1.38 billion.
The brokerage’s commission revenue jumped 36% to $514 million, driven by a 47% increase in stock trading volume, and gains of 25% and 16% in options and futures trading, respectively.
Net interest income rose 3% to $770 million, supported by growth in customer margin loans and credit balances.
Interactive Brokers (NASDAQ:IBKR) declared a quarterly dividend of $0.32 per share, up from $0.25, and announced a four-for-one stock split set to take effect after market close on June 17.
