The business activities of RJO added an incremental $26.7 million of interest expense, with $24.3 million attributable to client balances.

The increase in interest expense attributable to corporate funding was principally due to the issuance of $625 million in aggregate principal amount of the Notes due 2032, which closed on July 8, 2025.

Segment Results

Our business activities are managed through four operating segments, including Commercial, Institutional, Self-Directed/Retail and Payments.

The tables below present the financial performance, a disaggregation of operating revenues, select operating data and metrics, and a disaggregation of net operating revenue used by management in evaluating the performance of our segments, for the periods indicated.

During the three month period ended September 30, 2025, our acquisition of RJO triggered a reassessment of the financial information reviewed by management. We determined the acquired business activities of RJO were similar to our existing businesses, and the reassessment confirmed the current composition of the Company’s operating segments, except for one change resulting in the combination of all physical trading capabilities in precious metals being reported within the Commercial segment. Previously, the Self-Directed/Retail segment contained a portion of our precious metals activities. All segment information has been revised to reflect all precious metals business within the Commercial segment retroactive to October 1, 2024.

Additional information on the performance of our segments will be included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to be filed with the SEC.

Appendix - Non-GAAP Financial Information

The following table reconciles net income to EBITDA(1) and Adjusted EBITDA(1).

  Three Months Ended December 31,
    2025       2024     % Change
(in millions)          
Net income $ 139.0     $ 85.1     63 %
Interest expense   488.0       321.4     52 %
Depreciation and amortization   25.0       15.7     59 %
Income tax expense   45.9       31.8     44 %
EBITDA   697.9       454.0     54 %
Amortization of share-based compensation   14.3       11.3     27 %
Interest expense attributable to trading activities   (461.7 )     (306.2 )   51 %
Other losses (gains), net   0.4       (5.7 )   n/m
Adjusted EBITDA $ 250.9     $ 153.4     64 %
(1)EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures.
 

EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure used to measure operating performance, is defined as net income plus interest expense, depreciation and amortization, and income tax expense. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA plus amortization of share-based compensation and less interest expenses attributable to trading activities, including the credit facilities of our subsidiaries, gain on acquisitions, acquisition-related expenses, and gain on class action settlements.

Each of the EBITDA-based measures described above is not a presentation made in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Additionally, each such measure is not intended to be a measure of free cash flows available for management’s discretionary use, as it does not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements. Such measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider any of such measures in isolation or as substitutes for our results as reported under GAAP. Management compensates for the limitations of using non-GAAP financial measures by using them to supplement GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone. Because not all companies use identical calculations, these EBITDA-based measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

The Company believes EBITDA is helpful in highlighting the business’s trends because EBITDA excludes the results of decisions that are outside the control of management and can differ significantly from company to company depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which companies operate and capital investments. In addition, EBITDA provides more comparability between the historical operating results that reflect purchase accounting and the new capital structure.
