Billy Hult, CEO of Tradeweb:

“Tradeweb delivered a strong second quarter, despite macro challenges around the April 2025 U.S. tariff announcements, rising tensions in the Middle East and evolving central bank policy decisions, which continued to test the resiliency of electronic trading across global markets.

Against this background, we continued to work with clients on strategic initiatives in traditional markets and the digital asset space. Our recently announced collaboration with Novaprime will bring new intelligence and workflow tools into the mortgage space, helping us unlock value across the trade lifecycle. Furthermore, as AI continues to shape the evolution of markets, we were pleased to welcome Sherry Marcus as Tradeweb’s Head of AI in May. Sherry’s extensive experience and leadership will be instrumental in advancing our AI capabilities to new levels of sophistication.

We introduced direct Treasury bill trading for corporate treasurers through a seamless integration between our ICD Portal and institutional platform — demonstrating the capabilities and innovation we're able to provide clients through our fourth client channel. Building on our successes in credit, we were excited to introduce electronic portfolio trading for European government bonds — extending this innovative protocol to this asset class.

Finally, we were honored to be named a "Best Company to Work For" by U.S. News & World Report. I’m proud of what we’ve built together and even more excited about where we’re headed next.”

DISCUSSION OF RESULTS

Rates – Revenues of $274.5 million in the second quarter of 2025 increased 26.2% compared to prior year period (increased 23.9% on a constant currency basis). Rates ADV was up 15.5% from prior year period, driven by record ADV in U.S. government bonds and swaps/swaptions < 1-year. Strong U.S. Treasuries ADV was led by robust activity across the institutional and wholesale client channels. Global swaps/swaptions ≥ 1-year saw strong activity YoY driven by significant volatility in global rates markets, due to changes in U.S. trade policy, geopolitical tensions and shifts in investor sentiment. European government bonds ADV was up 20.4% from prior year period, led by strong volumes across our institutional client channel. Mortgages ADV was up 12.7% from prior year period, reflecting strong specified pool volumes, driven by a record number of clients executing on the platform and strong To-Be-Announced ("TBA") activity, which was primarily driven by robust dollar-roll trading volume.

Credit – Revenues of $124.3 million in the second quarter of 2025 increased 11.7% compared to prior year period (increased 10.5% on a constant currency basis). U.S. credit ADV was up 16.2% from prior year period, driven by record ADV in fully electronic U.S. high yield credit and continued client adoption across Tradeweb protocols, most notably in request-for-quote ("RFQ") and Portfolio Trading. European credit ADV was up 8.9% from prior year period, driven by strong activity across a wide range of protocols, including Tradeweb's Automated Intelligent Execution ("AiEX") tool and Tradeweb AllTrade®. We reported 17.9% share of fully electronic U.S. high grade TRACE, down 100 basis points (bps) from prior year period and 8.2% share of fully electronic U.S. high yield TRACE, up 60 bps from prior year period. We also reported 26.0% total share of U.S. high grade TRACE, down 108 bps from prior year period and 10.7% total share of U.S. high yield TRACE, up 79 bps from prior year period.

Equities – Revenues of $34.3 million in the second quarter of 2025 increased 49.8% compared to prior year period (increased 46.7% on a constant currency basis). Equities ADV was up 29.6% from prior year period, driven by strong growth YoY in equity derivatives, a growing client base across the U.S. and Europe, increased client adoption of Tradeweb's AiEX tool, and record ADV in European ETFs.

Money Markets – Revenues of $41.6 million in the second quarter of 2025 increased 130.7% compared to prior year period (increased 128.5% on a constant currency basis). Money Markets ADV was up 67.5% from prior year period, driven by contributions from the August 1, 2024 acquisition of ICD and record activity in global repurchase agreements. In the U.S., strong repo volume growth was driven by the effects of the Fed's balance sheet unwind, in addition to balances in the Fed's reverse repo facility ("RRP") remaining at relatively low levels. In Europe, increased repo volumes were driven by increased government bond issuance, as well as market volatility.

Market Data – Revenues of $30.4 million in the second quarter of 2025 increased 4.1% compared to prior year period (increased 2.9% on a constant currency basis).

Other – Revenues of $7.9 million in the second quarter of 2025 increased 31.9% compared to prior year period (increased 31.9% on a constant currency basis) primarily due to an increase in the value of Canton Coins earned during the second quarter of 2025, in exchange for providing services as a Super Validator and Validator on the Canton Network. The Company began providing services to the Canton Network during the third quarter of 2024.

Operating Expenses of $313.1 million in the second quarter of 2025 increased 29.1% compared to $242.5 million in prior year period, primarily due to (i) an increase in employee compensation and benefits as a result of an increase in incentive compensation expense tied to our financial performance and an increase in headcount to support our continued growth, (ii) a $14.6 million increase in foreign exchange losses and (iii) an increase in depreciation and amortization expense primarily related to the assets acquired in connection with the 2024 acquisition of ICD.

Adjusted Expenses of $252.6 million in the second quarter of 2025 increased 24.1% (increased 21.5% on a constant currency basis) compared to prior year period primarily due to (i) an increase in employee compensation and benefits as a result of an increase in incentive compensation expense tied to our financial performance and an increase in headcount to support our continued growth (ii) an increase in technology and communications expense due to increased investment in our data strategy and infrastructure and increased clearance and data fees driven primarily by higher trading volumes as compared to prior year period and (iii) a $3.9 million increase in foreign exchange losses. Please see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for additional information.

OTHER MATTERS

Updated Full-Year 2025 Guidance*

Adjusted Expenses: $1,000 - 1,050 million (trending toward middle of range)
Acquisition and Refinitiv Transaction related depreciation and amortization expense: $176 million
Assumed non-GAAP tax rate: ~24.5% - 25.5%
Cash capital expenditures and capitalized software development: ~$99 - 109 million
LSEG Market Data Contract Revenue: ~$90 million

The guidance has been revised to reflect higher adjusted expenses in light of strong business momentum and accelerated investments in future growth initiatives. Depreciation and amortization, assumed non-GAAP tax rate, expenditures and LSEG Market Data Contract Revenue guidance is unchanged from the prior quarter guidance.

*GAAP operating expenses and tax rate guidance are not provided due to the inherent difficulty in quantifying certain amounts due to a variety of factors including the unpredictability in the movement of foreign currency rates. Expense guidance assumes an average 2025 Sterling/US$ foreign exchange rate of 1.28.

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, 2025 and 2024 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 2025 guidance and full-year 2025 revenue guidance related to the LSEG market data license agreement, pending and completed acquisitions, 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.
