Analysis
StoneX reported a strong fiscal 2026 third quarter. Net operating revenues increased 47% to $719.7 million, net income increased 102% to $127.9 million, and diluted EPS increased 85% to $1.00. Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, increased 70% to $229.5 million. For the nine months ended June 30, 2026, net operating revenues increased 55% to $2,273.2 million and net income increased 100% to $441.2 million.
The revenue mix showed broad growth in the principal institutional and commercial activities. Commercial segment operating revenues increased 97% to $452.2 million, while Institutional increased 40% to $875.3 million and Payments increased 13% to $60.3 million. Listed derivatives operating revenues increased 125% to $284.3 million, supported by a 73% increase in contracts to 97,944 contracts, 000’s and a 129% increase in average client equity to $15,007 million. RJO contributed 32.0 million listed derivative contracts and $6.6 billion in average client equity during the quarter.
Profit growth exceeded net operating revenue growth. Net contribution increased 38% to $475.7 million, while total fixed compensation and other expenses increased 22% to $314.2 million. Income before tax increased 87% to $159.8 million. Variable compensation and benefits rose 70% to $244.0 million, and spending increased in depreciation and amortization, non-trading technology and support, travel and business development, and other expenses. Professional fees declined 75% to $5.9 million.
Several product lines and segments declined. Self-Directed/Retail operating revenues fell 13% to $96.3 million and segment income fell 36% to $24.9 million. FX/CFD operating revenues declined 19% to $70.9 million, with FX/CFD contracts ADV down 12% to $10,780 million. Corporate operating revenues declined 82% to $2.8 million and the Corporate net operating loss rose to $(39.8) million. The filing did not provide forward guidance.
Interest expense remains a material line item. Total interest expense rose 31% to $510.9 million, with the Company attributing increases in fixed income securities and securities borrowing interest expense principally to growth in security repo and securities lending businesses. RJO added $27.4 million of interest expense, including $25.1 million attributable to client balances, for the quarter. Corporate funding interest expense increased 33% to $26.8 million, which the Company attributed principally to the $625 million Notes due 2032 issued in July 2025.

Background
This is StoneX’s SEC Form 8-K filing for Item 2.02, attaching Exhibit 99.1 with fiscal 2026 third-quarter financial results for the period ended June 30, 2026.
Ticker impact
StoneX reported fiscal 2026 Q3 results, with net operating revenues up 47% to $719.7 million and diluted EPS of $1.00.
Likely positive bias for SNEX shares, with traders focusing on whether the R.J. O’Brien integration benefits persist into Q4.
The filing provides concrete, same-day financial datapoints (revenues, net income, EPS, ROE) and segment growth, which are direct inputs to valuation and near-term positioning.
Market effects
Strength in a non-bank FCM franchise may reinforce investor appetite for listed commodity/clearing and brokerage-adjacent business models.
Primarily US-listed financials sentiment, with potential spillover to commodity-linked trading venues.
Limited direct global macro linkage, but commodity and derivatives volumes can be globally correlated.
Counterpoint
Growth is partly driven by interest income and principal gains, which can be more volatile than recurring fee streams.
