Current report

We experienced a strong performance in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, highlighted by active client engagement, the further integration of recent acquisitions, as well as the continued benefits of the roll out of our digital offerings, with net operating revenues and net income up 47% and 102%, respectively as compared to the prior year. We believe this result highlights the benefit of the depth and breadth of our product offering and capabilities as well as the geographical reach of our ecosystem, as it was driven by strong performances across our Commercial, Institutional and Payments segments, which more than offset a decline in our Self-Directed/Retail segment. In addition, this quarter includes net operating revenue contributions from the RJO and Benchmark acquisitions, of $78.8 million and $29.5 million, respectively.

We continued to benefit from increased client demand and activity associated with rising prices and volatility in global metals markets, while the onset and continuation of the U.S.-Iran conflict and the resulting effect of heightened volatility on commodity, securities and interest rate markets drove heightened client demand for our products and services, most notably in our global hedging business, and also across equities, fixed income and institutional listed derivatives.
