Interactive Brokers stock jumps 10% after Q2 earnings beat expectations

Interactive Brokers Group Inc. (NASDAQ: IBKR) saw its shares surge 10% on Friday following the release of its second-quarter 2025 earnings, which exceeded Wall Street expectations on both revenue and profit.

The firm posted record financial metrics, bolstered by strong trading activity, net interest income, and steady growth in new client accounts.

Earnings and revenue exceed forecasts

The electronic brokerage firm reported earnings per share (EPS) of $0.51, surpassing the consensus estimate of $0.46 and marking a 10.87% surprise.

Revenue reached $1.48 billion, exceeding projections of $1.35 billion for a 9.63% upside.

Investors responded positively to the results, driving the stock up 10.61% in Friday trading and bringing shares to their 52-week high of $65.74.

The firm’s pretax profit margin held steady at 75%, reflecting strong operational efficiency.

Net interest income hit a record $860 million, while commission revenue rose 27% year-over-year to $516 million.

This was the third consecutive quarter in which Interactive Brokers reported pretax income exceeding $1 billion.

Asset growth was also strong. Total assets grew 33% year-over-year to $181 billion, and client equity rose 34% to $664 billion.

The company attributed its performance to increased trading activity driven by market volatility and interest in AI-related stocks.

Expanding reach and strategic strengths

Interactive Brokers added 250,000 new accounts during the quarter, bringing the year-to-date total to over 528,000.

The company also completed a four-for-one stock split, aimed at improving share liquidity.

These moves, combined with its competitive fee structure, low-cost crypto trading platform, and round-the-clock trading services, continue to attract a growing global client base.

According to InvestingPro, the company has delivered 16 consecutive years of dividend payments, underlining its financial consistency.

IBKR shares are trading with a P/E ratio of 31.95, reflecting strong investor confidence and positioning the company as a growth stock within the financial sector.

Executives highlighted automation as a cornerstone of their operating model.

Nancy Stuebe, Head of Investor Relations, remarked, “Automating substantial parts of the brokerage business is the heart of what we do.”

CEO Milan Galek reinforced the company’s long-term strategy, saying, “We are looking to capture the long-term trend towards more global investing.”

Outlook remains positive despite macro risks

The company expects continued growth in account openings and anticipates reaching its four millionth customer in Q3 2025.

However, the potential for interest rate cuts remains a concern.

A 1% rate cut could reduce annual net interest income by an estimated $335 million.

Other risks include intensifying competition in crypto trading, regulatory uncertainties, and the need to stay ahead in technological innovation.

Despite these challenges, analyst sentiment remains upbeat. Five analysts have revised their earnings estimates upward.

Founder Thomas Peterffy summed up the company’s confidence: “This is a great time for brokerage firms and investment banks.”

With strong financials and a growing client base, Interactive Brokers appears well-positioned to maintain momentum in the second half of 2025.
