Billy Hult, CEO of Tradeweb:
“Our second quarter results reflect the resilience and diversification of our global, multi-asset platform, with strong volume growth across the business despite more normalized volatility compared to the first quarter of 2026. International revenue continued to accelerate, and client adoption of Tradeweb AiEX continued to increase as clients further embedded automation into their trading workflows — a trend that continues to reinforce the long-term structural shift toward electronic trading.
In our core markets, we advanced our credit offering with the launch of TARA, our first generative AI-powered research assistant for institutional credit trading, and the introduction of spread trading for European credit portfolios, enabling clients to execute at the portfolio level within a single, integrated workflow. We also announced the adoption of Tradeweb’s iNAV by Xtrackers across its European-listed ETFs, highlighting our commitment to supporting more efficient ETF trading and building confidence across the broader market.
In frontier markets, we deepened our partnership with Kalshi, integrating prediction market data and a dedicated pricing index into institutional trading workflows, while continuing to invest in our digital asset capabilities on the Canton Network. Together, these initiatives reflect our commitment to investing in the technologies and partnerships that we believe will define the next phase of electronic trading.
With a strong foundation across our core and emerging products, we remain focused on delivering for our clients and driving durable, long-term growth.”

DISCUSSION OF RESULTS
Rates – Revenues of $302.5 million in the second quarter of 2026 increased 10.2% compared to prior year period (increased 9.5% on a constant currency basis). Rates ADV was up 23.1% from prior year period, including record ADV in rates futures. U.S. government bond ADV was up 5.3% from prior year period, driven by strong institutional and wholesale activity, with institutional volumes reaching their second highest month on record in May 2026. Swaps/swaptions ≥ 1-year ADV was up 26.5% from prior year period, driven by fluctuating global central bank policy expectations and evolving geopolitical uncertainty. European government bonds ADV was up 17.3% from prior year period, led by strong volumes across our institutional client channel. Mortgages ADV was up 10.7% from prior year period, including strong To-Be-Announced (“TBA”) activity, which was primarily driven by increased trading year-over-year (“YoY”) from asset managers and hedge funds. Tradeweb’s specified pool platform saw higher trading activity YoY, supported by continued momentum in client adoption and an expanding dealer roster. The 10.3% decline in rates derivatives ≥ 1-year average variable fees per million in the second quarter of 2026 compared to prior year period was primarily driven by a mix shift within currencies, which carry a relatively lower fee per million as well as lower duration.
Credit – Revenues of $128.4 million in the second quarter of 2026 increased 3.3% compared to prior year period (increased 2.7% on a constant currency basis). U.S. credit ADV was up 10.3% from prior year period, including record ADV in fully electronic U.S. high yield credit, as well as continued client adoption of trading protocols, including in Portfolio Trading (“PT”), Request-for-Quote (“RFQ”) and Tradeweb AllTrade®. European credit ADV was up 23.4% from prior year period, driven by a diverse set of protocols, particularly PT and Tradeweb Automated Intelligent Execution (“AiEX”). Credit derivatives ADV was up 19.6% from prior year period, driven by increased hedge fund and systematic account activity YoY which led to increased swap execution facility (“SEF”) and multilateral trading facility (“MTF”) credit default swaps activity. Municipal bond ADV was down 12.2% from prior year period, outperforming the market which was down 16% from prior year period (based on MSRB). We reported 19.0% share of fully electronic U.S. high grade TRACE, up 101 basis points (bps) from prior year period and 8.5% share of fully electronic U.S. high yield TRACE, up 32 bps from prior year period. We also reported 25.7% total share of U.S. high grade TRACE, down 29 bps from prior year period and 11.1% total share of U.S. high yield TRACE, up 44 bps from prior year period. The 11.4% decline in cash credit average variable fees per million in the second quarter of 2026 compared to prior year period was primarily driven by a mix shift away from municipal bonds and retail U.S. credit, which carry a relatively higher fee per million, as well as a mix shift towards European credit and portfolio trading, which carry a relatively lower fee per million.
Equities – Revenues of $38.9 million in the second quarter of 2026 increased 13.5% compared to prior year period (increased 12.1% on a constant currency basis). Equities ADV was up 17.3% from prior year period, with record ADV in convertibles/swaps/options. Volumes were driven by strong activity in U.S. and international exchange traded funds (“ETFs”), with robust activity in our institutional and wholesale channels, as the client base grew and clients’ adoption of our automated trading functionality continued to grow YoY.
Money Markets – Revenues of $44.0 million in the second quarter of 2026 increased 5.6% compared to prior year period (increased 5.2% on a constant currency basis). Money Markets ADV was up 11.7% from prior year period, driven by record ADV in global repurchase agreements as a result of increased client participation across the platform, as well as Tradeweb ICD Portal activity, which was driven by both existing clients and new client additions.
Market Data – Revenues of $37.3 million in the second quarter of 2026 increased 22.6% compared to prior year period (increased 22.7% on a constant currency basis), primarily due to amendments to our LSEG market data license agreement which were effective as of November 2025, as well as growth in our proprietary market data revenues. The amended market data license agreement included higher overall fees and a change in the timing of the delivery of periodic historical data sets, with more frequent deliveries scheduled under the amended agreement and a corresponding increase in revenue during the second quarter of 2026.
Other – Revenues of $7.9 million in the second quarter of 2026 remained relatively flat compared to prior year period.
Operating Expenses of $313.7 million in the second quarter of 2026 remained relatively flat compared to $313.1 million in prior year period as the increase in technology and communication expense due to increased investment in our data strategy and infrastructure and increased data fees driven primarily by higher trading volumes period-over-period was partially offset by a decrease in general and administrative expenses primarily due to a decrease in foreign exchange losses.
Adjusted Expenses of $276.4 million in the second quarter of 2026 increased 9.4% (increased 9.9% on a constant currency basis) compared to prior year period primarily due to (i) an increase in technology and communication expense due to increased investment in our data strategy and infrastructure and increased data fees driven primarily by higher trading volumes period-over-period and (ii) an increase in depreciation and amortization expense primarily relating to capitalized internally developed software and technology hardware. Please see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for additional information.
Non-operating Income – Other income (loss), net of $7.3 million of income in the second quarter of 2026 compared to the prior year period income of $12.7 million, primarily included $26.6 million in unrealized gains on minority equity investments during the second quarter of 2026, partially offset by a $15.1 million unrealized loss related to our Canton Coin holdings and a $3.7 million decrease in fair value of our investment in Canton Strategic Holdings. Other income in the second quarter of 2025 included $18.1 million in unrealized gains relating our Canton Coin holdings, partially offset by a $5.4 million loss due to the impairment of a minority equity investment. Other income (loss), net is excluded from all non-GAAP financial measures.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Tradeweb Markets Inc. (unless the context otherwise requires, together with its subsidiaries, referred to as “we,” “our,” “Tradeweb,” “Tradeweb Markets” or the “Company”) closed its IPO on April 8, 2019. As a result of certain reorganization transactions (the “Reorganization Transactions”) completed in connection with the IPO, on April 4, 2019, Tradeweb Markets Inc. became a holding company whose principal assets consist of its direct and indirect equity interest in Tradeweb Markets LLC (“TWM LLC”) and related deferred tax assets. As the sole manager of TWM LLC, Tradeweb Markets Inc. operates and controls all of the business and affairs of TWM LLC and, through TWM LLC and its subsidiaries, conducts its business. As a result of this control, and because Tradeweb Markets Inc. has a substantial financial interest in TWM LLC, Tradeweb Markets Inc. consolidates the financial results of TWM LLC and its subsidiaries.
Numerical figures included in this release have been subject to rounding adjustments and as a result totals may not be the arithmetic aggregation of the amounts that precede them and figures expressed as percentages may not total 100%.
Please refer to the Company’s previously filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Annual Report on Form 10-K for capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein.
UNAUDITED INTERIM RESULTS
The interim financial results presented herein for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 are unaudited. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Statements related to, among other things, our guidance, including full-year 2026 guidance and full-year 2026 revenue guidance related to the LSEG market data license agreement, any acquisitions, investments, partnerships and collaborations, future performance, the industry and markets in which we operate, our expectations, beliefs, plans, strategies, objectives, prospects and assumptions and future events are forward-looking statements.
We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections. While we believe these expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections are reasonable, such forward-looking statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. These and other important factors, including those discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the documents of Tradeweb Markets Inc. on file with or furnished to the SEC, may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this release are not guarantees of future events or performance and future events, our actual results of operations, financial condition or liquidity, and the development of the industry and markets in which we operate, may differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this release. In addition, even if future events, our results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity, and events in the industry and markets in which we operate, are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this release, they may not be predictive of events, results or developments in future periods. Any forward-looking statement that we make in this release speaks only as of the date of such statement. Except as required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to update or revise, or to publicly announce any update or revision to, any of the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date of this release.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This release contains “non-GAAP financial measures,” including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income per diluted share (“Adjusted Diluted EPS”), Adjusted Expenses, Free Cash Flow and constant currency change, which are supplemental financial measures that are not calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We make use of non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating our past results and future prospects. We present these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe they assist investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.
Management and our board of directors use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBIT margin to assess our financial performance and believe they are helpful in highlighting trends in our core operating performance, while other measures can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which we operate and capital investments. Further, our executive incentive compensation is based in part on components of Adjusted EBITDA.
We use Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS as supplemental metrics to evaluate our business performance in a way that also considers our ability to generate profit without the impact of certain items. Each of the normal recurring adjustments and other adjustments included in Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS help to provide management with a measure of our operating performance over time by removing items that are not related to day-to-day operations or are non-cash expenses.
We use Adjusted Expenses as a supplemental metric to evaluate our underlying operating performance over time by removing items that are not related to day-to-day operations or are non-cash expenses.
We use Free Cash Flow to assess our liquidity in a way that considers the amount of cash generated from our core operations after non-acquisition related expenditures for capitalized software development costs and furniture, equipment and leasehold improvements.
We present certain changes on a “constant currency” basis. Since our consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, we must translate non-U.S. dollar revenues and expenses into U.S. dollars. Constant currency change, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as change excluding the effects of foreign currency fluctuations. Constant currency information is calculated by translating the current period and prior period’s results using the annual average exchange rates for the prior period. We use constant currency change as a supplemental metric to evaluate our underlying performance between periods by removing the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. We present certain constant currency change information because we believe it provides investors and analysts a useful comparison of our results and trends between periods. This information should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with GAAP.
See the attached schedules for reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures contained in this release to their most comparable GAAP financial measure. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider these non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as alternatives to net income attributable to Tradeweb Markets Inc., net income, net income margin, earnings per share, operating income, operating expenses, cash flow from operating activities or any other financial measure prepared or derived in accordance with GAAP. You are encouraged to evaluate each adjustment included in the reconciliations. In addition, in evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT margin, Adjusted EBT, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted Expenses and Free Cash Flow, you should be aware that in the future, we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures.
Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures contained in this release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in our industry or across different industries.
MARKET AND INDUSTRY DATA
This release includes estimates regarding market and industry data that we prepared based on our management’s knowledge and experience in the markets in which we operate, together with information obtained from various sources, including publicly available information, industry reports and publications, surveys, our clients, trade and business organizations and other contacts in the markets in which we operate. In presenting this information, we have made certain assumptions that we believe to be reasonable based on such data and other similar sources and on our knowledge of, and our experience to date in, the markets in which we operate. While such information is believed to be reliable for the purposes used herein, no representations are made as to the accuracy or completeness thereof and we take no responsibility for such information.
TRADEWEB SOCIAL MEDIA

Information about Tradeweb, its business and its results of operations may also be announced by posts on the Company’s accounts on the following social media channels: Instagram, LinkedIn and X. The information that we post through these social media channels may be deemed material. As a result, we encourage investors, the media, and others interested in Tradeweb to monitor these social media channels in addition to following our investor relations website, press releases, SEC filings and public conference calls and webcasts.
