StoneX Group Inc. Reports Fiscal 2021 First Quarter Financial Results

Quarterly Operating Revenues of $380.1 million, up 37%

Quarterly Net Income of $19.5 million, up 20%

Quarter Diluted EPS of $0.98 per share, ROE of 10.0%

NEW YORK, Feb. 08, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 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 2021 first quarter ended December 31, 2020.

Sean M. O’Connor, CEO of StoneX Group Inc., stated, "Q1 was a solid start to the new fiscal year with all our segments showing growth in both operating revenues and segment income, despite generally lower trending volatility and significantly lower interest rates. We saw strong growth in customer volumes, new account activity and customer float. We have made good progress on integrating Gain, including realizing cost synergies, and are actively developing revenue synergy opportunities.

The quarter included a few notable items, which in aggregate reduced our EPS by approximately $0.45 per diluted share, and without which we would have nearly achieved our goal of a 15% return on equity for the quarter. Specifically, we recorded hedging losses relating to the sterling-based capital acquired in the Gain transaction, which was offset with a credit to stockholders’ equity, and with respect to physical inventories we hold for short periods prior to delivery for sale, and we also recorded additional amortization relating to intangible assets acquired in the Gain transaction.”

StoneX Group Inc. Summary Financials

Consolidated financial statements for the Company will be included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to be filed with the SEC. The Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will also be made available on the Company’s website at www.stonex.com.

Operating Revenues

Operating revenues increased 37% to $380.1 million in the three months ended December 31, 2020 compared to $276.8 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019.

The table above displays operating revenues disaggregated across the key products we provide to our clients. Operating revenues in listed derivatives increased $22.8 million to $95.0 million in the three months ended December 31, 2020. This growth was primarily driven by increased volumes in domestic grain markets within our Commercial segment as well as the addition of the futures business acquired in the acquisition of Gain in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020.

Operating revenues in OTC derivatives increased $1.5 million to $24.2 million in the three months ended December 31, 2020, driven by heightened customer activity in soft commodity, food service and dairy markets within our Commercial segment.

Operating revenue from securities transactions increased $36.3 million to $126.6 million in the three months ended December 31, 2020, primarily as a result continued heightened volatility in global equity and fixed income markets due to economic concerns related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Operating revenues from FX/CFD contracts increased $55.2 million to $59.8 million in the three months ended December 31, 2020, as a result of an incremental $54.8 million in retail FX/CFD contracts operating revenues resulting from the acquisition of Gain in the fourth quarter fiscal 2020.

Operating revenues from global payments increased by $3.0 million to $33.6 million in the three months ended December 31, 2020, as a result of a 3% increase in Rate per Million (“RPM”) and a 6% increase in the Average Daily Volume (“ADV”).

Operating revenues from physical contracts increased $3.7 million to $23.8 million in the three months ended December 31, 2020, primarily due to continued strong customer demand for precious metals. The three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 include unrealized losses on derivative positions held against physical inventories carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value of $3.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively. In addition, the three months ended December 31, 2020 include a $1.9 million loss on the liquidation of certain energy inventories which we are attempting to recover from our supplier, however there is substantial uncertainty as to whether we will be successful.

Interest and fee income earned on client balances, which is associated with our listed and OTC derivative, correspondent clearing and independent wealth management product offerings, declined $12.7 million compared to the prior year as a result of a significant declines in short term interest rates related to FOMC actions to reduce the federal funds rate in March 2020. Partially offsetting the decline in short term interest rates was an increase in average client equity and average FDIC sweep client balances of 52% and 35%, respectively.

Following the acquisition of Gain, and in advance of the planned merger of the operations of Gain’s U.K. domiciled subsidiaries into StoneX Financial Ltd., we enacted a plan to mitigate our exposure to the British Pound in the Gain subsidiaries. As part of this plan, we increased the U.S. dollar balances in the Gain subsidiaries and also utilized derivative transactions to mitigate the remaining British Pound exposure. In the three months ended December 31, 2020, we recognized a $3.7 million unrealized loss on these derivative positions. In addition, as the Gain’s U.K. subsidiaries have a functional currency of British Pound, the increased U.S. dollar exposure resulted in a $2.7 million foreign currency loss on revaluation for the three months ended December 31, 2020. Each of these items are reflected in operating revenues in the Corporate Unallocated segment. The assets and liabilities of Gain’s U.K. subsidiaries are subject to translation to the U.S. dollar, and for the three months ended December 31, 2020, the foreign currency translation adjustment related to Gain’s U.K. subsidiaries resulted in an $8.8 million increase which is included within our Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.

Variable vs. Fixed Expenses
The table below sets forth our variable expenses and non-variable expenses as a percentage of total non-interest expenses for the periods indicated.

	Three Months Ended December 31,
(in millions)	2020				% of Total			2019				% of Total
Variable compensation and benefits	$	84.3			25	%		$	54.6			25	%
Transaction-based clearing expenses	65.4				21	%		46.3				21	%
Introducing broker commissions	38.2				11	%		26.2				12	%
Total variable expenses	187.9				57	%		127.1				58	%
Fixed compensation and benefits	69.3				21	%		49.4				22	%
Other fixed expenses	74.1				22	%		44.9				20	%
Bad debts	1.5				—	%		—				—	%
Total non-variable expenses	144.9				43	%		94.3				42	%
Total non-interest expenses	$	332.8			100	%		$	221.4			100	%

Our variable expenses include variable compensation paid to traders and risk management consultants, bonuses paid to operational, administrative, and executive employees, transaction-based clearing expenses and introducing broker commissions. We seek to make non-interest expenses variable to the greatest extent possible, and to keep our fixed costs as low as possible.

Variable expenses were 57% of total non-interest expenses in the three months ended December 31, 2020 compared to 58% in the prior year period. During the three months ended December 31, 2020, non-variable expenses, excluding bad debts increased $49.1 million, or 52%, period-over-period, of which $42.5 million of the increase related to companies and businesses acquired after December 2019. We view these acquisitions as long-term strategic decisions, and in aggregate, these acquisitions resulted in a pre-tax loss of $3.0 million during the current quarter, inclusive of $2.6 million in amortization expense on identified intangibles from the Gain acquisition.
