INTERACTIVE BROKERS GROUP ANNOUNCES 2010 RESULTS

— — —

REPORTS INCOME BEFORE TAXES OF $341 MILLION ON $922 MILLION IN NET REVENUES, GAAP LOSS PER SHARE OF $(0.22) AND, ON A NON-GAAP BASIS, INCOME BEFORE TAXES OF $499 MILLION ON $1,070 MILLION IN NET REVENUES, EARNINGS PER SHARE OF $0.73


GREENWICH, CONN, January 20, 2011 — Interactive Brokers Group, Inc. (NASDAQ GS: IBKR) an automated global electronic market maker and broker, today reported a diluted loss per share of $(0.22) for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.87 in 2009.  Reported results include the effects of a special dividend to shareholders paid in December 2010.  Reported results also reflect the GAAP convention that shifted currency hedging results from reportable earnings to Other Comprehensive Income, which is reported in the Statement of Financial Condition. The Company considers these items to be non-operating in nature. Excluding the effects of the dividend and the currency reporting convention together, the Company estimates, on a non-GAAP basis, diluted earnings per share of $0.73 for 2010 ($1.04 for 2009).
 
Net revenues were $922 million and income before income taxes was $341 million for the year, compared to net revenues of $1,100 million and income before income taxes of $545 million in 2009. Adjusted for the dividend and currency reporting convention described above, on a non-GAAP basis, 2010 net revenues were $1,070 million ($1,205 million in 2009) and 2010 income before income taxes was $499 million ($649 million in 2009).


Business Highlights

·  
37% pre-tax profit margin for 2010 (47% on a non-GAAP basis).
·

Segment Overview

Electronic Brokerage
Electronic Brokerage segment income before income taxes grew 19% in 2010.  Customer accounts grew 18% from the prior year and customer equity increased 45% during 2010.  Commissions and execution fees increased by 10% and net interest income grew by 78% from prior year.  Pre-tax profit margin was 50% for 2010.  Total DARTs(1) for cleared and execution-only customers increased 9% to 379,000 in 2010, compared to 347,000 during 2009.  Cleared DARTs were 343,000 in 2010, 9% higher than in 2009.


Market Making
Market Making segment income before income taxes decreased 73% (decreased 45% on a non-GAAP basis) in 2010 and pre-tax profit margin narrowed to 24% (45% on a non-GAAP basis) in 2010 from 53% (60% on a non-GAAP basis) in 2009.  Low market volatility, compressed bid/offer spreads in options and heightened competition from high-frequency traders reduced trading opportunities for our automated market making system.  Our currency hedging program performed well in a volatile foreign exchange rate environment.  The net change in the U.S. dollar value of the global basket of currencies in which we hold our equity was less than $15 million on $4.9 billion average equity for the year.  As described above, GAAP reporting convention shifted currency gains from reported earnings to Other Comprehensive Income, which is reported as a direct increase to shareholders’ equity in our balance sheet.  Market Making options contract volume increased by 1% and futures volume increased by 2% in 2010.


Effects of Non-GAAP Measures

Non-GAAP measures are used to isolate items that the Company’s management views as non-operating in nature, which is intended to give a clearer presentation of operating results. Given their material impact on our reported financial results, the following two non-GAAP measures are presented for 2010:
 
In December 2010, the Company effected a series of dividend payments, including a dividend of $1.79 per share, which was paid to holders of the Company’s common stock. On a consolidated reporting basis, the dividends had no effect on the Company’s reported income.  However, the U.S. federal income tax liability triggered by one of the dividends is reported as income tax expense in the Statement of Income. This income tax liability was funded by reserving a portion of the dividend received by Interactive Brokers Group, Inc. from IBG LLC, the holding company for the Group’s operating companies.  The remaining amount was paid to the Company’s public shareholders. The purpose of this non-GAAP measure is to separate the effects of the special dividend from the Company’s regular operating results.
 
In connection with our currency hedging strategy, we have determined to base our net worth in GLOBALs, a basket of major currencies in which we hold our equity. Pursuant to GAAP convention, a portion of our currency translation gains and losses is reported as Other Comprehensive Income in the Statement of Financial Condition. This income is, in effect, shifted from the reported earnings to the Statement of Financial Condition. The purpose of this non-GAAP measure is to report all currency translation gains and losses as if they were included in the Statement of Income. This analysis contains certain assumptions about tax rates and should, therefore, be considered an estimate.

Management believes that it is appropriate to adjust these non-operating items in the Statement of Income in order to achieve a proper representation of the Company’s financial performance. Please see the tables on pages 9-11 for the reconciliation of our GAAP to Non-GAAP results.

** In Brazil, an equity option contract typically represents 1 share of the underlying stock; however, the typical minimum
trading quantity is 100 contracts. To make a fair comparison to volume at other exchanges, we have adopted a policy
of reporting Brazilian equity options contracts divided by their trading quantity of 100.
