StoneX Group Inc. Reports Fiscal 2022 Fourth Quarter Financial Results

Record Fiscal 2022 Results, with Diluted EPS of $10.01, up 74% and Return on Equity of 21.0%
Quarterly Operating Revenues of $583.4 million, up 50%
Quarterly Net Income of $52.3 million, ROE of 19.8%
Quarterly Diluted EPS of $2.49 per share, up 592%


New York, NY – November 21, 2022 – StoneX Group Inc. (the “Company”; NASDAQ: SNEX), a diversified global brokerage and financial services firm providing execution, risk management and advisory services, market intelligence and clearing services across multiple asset classes and markets around the world, today announced its financial results for the fiscal year 2022 fourth quarter ended September 30, 2022.
Sean M. O’Connor, CEO of StoneX Group Inc., stated, “These results demonstrate the resiliency of our company during times of volatile markets and geo-economic uncertainties, and validates the ongoing investments we’ve made in the business. We realized strong growth across our operating segments resulting from increased client engagement as well as growth in our client base. We benefited from favorable market conditions with elevated volatility and increased interest rates on our growing client float but have not yet realized the full impact of rising interest rates on our earnings. We are confident that StoneX is well-positioned in fiscal 2023 to capitalize on the growing value we believe our franchise can deliver to empower our clients across all asset classes.”




StoneX Group Inc. Summary Financials
Consolidated financial statements for the Company will be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) which we expect to file on or about November 29, 2022. Upon filing, the Annual Report on Form 10-K will also be made available on the Company’s website at www.stonex.com.

Operating Revenues
Operating revenues increased $193.3 million, or 50%, to $583.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $390.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021.
Operating revenues derived from listed derivatives increased $11.1 million, or 12%, to $100.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $89.7 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021. This increase was principally due to a 13% increase in listed derivative contract volumes, which was partially offset by a 4% decline in the average rate per contract compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021.
Operating revenues derived from OTC derivatives increased $14.6 million, or 42%, to $49.0 million in the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $34.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021. This increase was principally due to a 31% increase in the OTC derivative average rate per contract as well as a 10% increase in OTC derivative contract volumes compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021.
Operating revenues derived from securities transactions increased $69.7 million, or 62%, to $181.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $112.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021. This increase was principally due to a 60% increase in RPM as well as an 18% increase in ADV compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021.
Operating revenues derived from FX/CFD contracts increased $25.7 million, or 46%, to $81.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $55.7 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021, principally due to a 34% increase in FX/CFD contracts RPM as well as an 11% increase in FX/CFD contracts ADV.
Operating revenues from global payments increased $10.3 million, or 31%, to $43.6 million in the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $33.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021, principally driven by a 19% increase in ADV and a 12% increase in global payments RPM.
Operating revenues derived from physical contracts increased $19.8 million, or 47%, to $61.9 million in the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $42.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021. This increase was principally due to increased client activity in both our physical precious metals and physical agricultural and energy businesses compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021.
Interest and fee income earned on client balances, which is associated with our listed and OTC derivatives, correspondent clearing, and independent wealth management product offerings, increased $41.2 million, or 522%, to $49.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $7.9 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021. This was principally driven by an increase in short-term interest rates as well as increases in average client equity and average money-market/FDIC sweep client balances of 61% and 22%, respectively.

During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the increase in interest expense attributable to trading activities is principally due to the increase in fixed income business activities within our Institutional segment, an increase in interest expense on client balances principally due to higher average client equity, and increase in average borrowings within our Commercial segment, along with the impact of the increases in short-term interest rates during the year ended September 30, 2022.






Gain on Acquisition and Other (Losses) Gains, net
The results of the year ended September 30, 2022 include a nonrecurring gain of $6.4 million related to a foreign exchange antitrust class action settlement received in March 2022.
