    Quarterly Diluted EPS of $3.62 per share, up 77%

    NEW YORK, Feb. 07, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- StoneX Group Inc. (the “Company”; NASDAQ: SNEX), a global financial services network that connects companies, organizations, traders and investors to the global market ecosystem through a unique blend of digital platforms, end-to-end clearing and execution services, high touch service and deep expertise, today announced its financial results for the fiscal year 2023 first quarter ended December 31, 2022.

    Sean M. O’Connor, the Company’s CEO, stated, “We achieved very strong results in the fiscal first quarter 2023, delivering increases in operating revenues and net income, which resulted in a diluted EPS of $3.62 and an ROE of 27.3% for the quarter. These results included a $23.5 million non-taxable gain on the acquisition of CDI, which contributed $1.11 of earnings per diluted share, and a significant increase in interest income, reflecting the growth in our client assets and the higher interest rate environment. While trading conditions moderated towards the end of the first quarter, the multiple drivers of our results, including our disciplined approach to acquisitions, the strong growth in client assets and our core operating performance, exemplify the diversity in our operating model. We believe that these multiple drivers and our ongoing investments position us to continue to empower our clients, drive growth and deliver shareholder value.”

    Operating Revenues

    Operating revenues increased $204.3 million, or 45%, to $654.8 million in the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to $450.5 million in the three months ended December 31, 2021.

    Operating revenues derived from listed derivatives declined $0.8 million, or 1%, to $99.8 million in the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to $100.6 million in the three months ended December 31, 2021. This decline was principally due to an 11% decline in the average rate per contract, which was partially offset by a 9% increase in listed derivative contract volumes compared to the three months ended December 31, 2021.

    Operating revenues derived from OTC derivatives declined $4.2 million, or 9%, to $42.5 million in the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to $46.7 million in the three months ended December 31, 2021. This was the result of 6% and 2% declines in OTC derivative contract volumes and the average rate per contract, respectively, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2021.

    Operating revenues derived from securities transactions increased $111.4 million, or 91%, to $234.1 million in the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to $122.7 million in the three months ended December 31, 2021. This increase was principally due to a 56% increase in ADV, as well as a significant increase in interest rates. Carried interest on fixed income securities is a component of operating revenues, however interest expense associated with financing these positions is not. As a result of the significant increase in short term rates, we have amended our calculation of Securities RPM, in the table above, to present the RPM after deducting from operating revenues the interest expense associated with our fixed income activities. Net operating revenues derived from securities transactions increased $20.9 million, or 29%, to $93.4 million in the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to $72.5 million in the three months ended December 31, 2021. This increase was principally due to a 56% increase in ADV, which was partially offset by a 20% decline in RPM as a result of a change in product mix traded.

    Operating revenues derived from FX/CFD contracts declined $23.4 million, or 32%, to $48.8 million in the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to $72.2 million in the three months ended December 31, 2021, principally due to a 27% decline in FX/CFD contracts RPM.

    Operating revenues from global payments increased $12.9 million, or 31%, to $54.2 million in the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to $41.3 million in the three months ended December 31, 2021, principally driven by a 23% increase in ADV and a 7% increase in global payments RPM.

    Operating revenues derived from physical contracts increased $18.8 million, or 46%, to $59.7 million in the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to $40.9 million in the three months ended December 31, 2021. This increase was principally due to the acquisition of CDI in the three months ended December 31, 2021 as well as increased activity in our physical precious metals businesses.

    Interest and fee income earned on client balances, which is associated with our listed and OTC derivatives, correspondent clearing, and independent wealth management product offerings, increased $77.9 million, or 939%, to $86.2 million in the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to $8.3 million in the three months ended December 31, 2021. This was principally driven by an increase in average client equity of 76%, as well as an increase in short-term interest rates.

    Interest expense

     Three Months Ended December 31,
    (in millions) 2022  2021 % Change
    Interest expense attributable to:     
    Trading activities:     
    Institutional dealer in fixed income securities$96.3 $3.0 3,110%
    Securities borrowing 7.9  5.7 39%
    Client balances on deposit 36.5  0.4 9,025%

    Corporate funding 14.4  11.8 22%
    Total interest expense$168.7 $27.5 513%


    The increase in interest expense attributable to trading activities was principally due to an increase in short term interest rates, an increase in ADV in our fixed income business, an increase in client balances on which we pay interest and an increase in average borrowings within our Commercial segment.

    The increase in interest expense attributable to corporate funding was principally due to higher short-term interest rates on our revolving credit facility as well as an increase in average borrowings.

    Variable vs. Fixed Expenses
    The table below sets forth our variable expenses and non-variable expenses as a percentage of total non-interest expenses for the periods indicated.

    Our variable expenses include variable compensation paid to traders and risk management consultants, bonuses paid to operational, administrative and executive employees, transaction-based clearing expenses and introducing broker commissions. We seek to make non-interest expenses variable to the greatest extent possible, and to keep our fixed costs as low as possible.

    Impact of the Gain on Acquisition and Related Amortization

    On October 31, 2022, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, StoneX Netherlands B.V., acquired CDI-Societe Cotonniere De Distribution S.A (“CDI”), based in Switzerland. CDI operates a global cotton merchant business with clients and producers in Brazil and West Africa as well as buyers throughout Asia. The results of the three months ended December 31, 2022 include a non-taxable gain of $23.5 million, as well as amortization expense related to identified intangible assets, related to the acquisition.

    The Company acquired Gain Capital Holdings, Inc. effective August 1, 2020. The results of the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 include amortization expense related to identified intangible assets, related to the acquisition.

    When evaluating acquisitions, management considers the gain on acquisition and the amortization expense related to the intangible assets identified and recorded as part of these acquisitions.

    The following table presents income before tax, income tax expense, and net income as reported in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The following table also presents adjusted income before tax, adjusted income tax expense, and adjusted net income, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The “adjusted” non-GAAP financial measures reflect each item after removing the impact of the gain on acquisition and the related amortization expense of the intangible assets for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Management believes that presenting our results excluding the gain on acquisition and the related amortization expense is meaningful, as it increases the comparability of period-to-period results.

    Appendix A

    The Company acquired CDI effective October 31, 2022, and the results of the three months ended December 31, 2022 include a non-taxable gain of $23.5 million, as well as amortization expense related to identified intangible assets, related to the acquisition. The Company acquired Gain Capital Holdings, Inc. effective August 1, 2020. The results of the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 include amortization expense related to identified intangible assets, related to the acquisition.

    The “adjusted” non-GAAP amounts reflect each item after removing the impact of the gain on acquisition and related amortization expense for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Management believes that presenting our results excluding the gain on acquisition and related amortization expense is meaningful, as it increases the comparability of period-to-period results.
