    Operating Revenues

    Operating revenues increased $97.3 million, or 23%, to $528.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $431.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021.

    Operating revenues derived from listed derivatives increased $4.3 million, or 4%, to $106.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $101.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was principally due to a 15% increase in listed derivative contract volumes, which was partially offset by a 12% decline in the average rate per contract compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021.

    Operating revenues derived from OTC derivatives increased $0.5 million, or 1%, to $50.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $49.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021. This was the result of an 8% increase in the OTC derivative average rate per contract, which was partially offset by a 5% decline in OTC derivative contract volumes compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021.

    Operating revenues derived from securities transactions increased $17.5 million, or 13%, to $154.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $137.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was principally due to a 128% increase in ADV, which was partially offset by a 48% decline in RPM compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021.

    Operating revenues derived from FX/CFD contracts increased $35.0 million, or 68%, to $86.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $51.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021, principally due to a 36% increase in FX/CFD contracts ADV as well as a 23% increase in FX/CFD contracts RPM.

    Operating revenues from global payments increased $8.7 million, or 26%, to $42.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $34.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021, principally driven by a 20% increase in ADV and a 9% increase in global payments RPM.

    Operating revenues derived from physical contracts increased $13.6 million, or 37%, to $50.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $37.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was principally due to increased activity in our physical precious metals businesses compared to the three months ended June 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 $14.5 million, or 207%, to $21.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $7.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021. This was principally driven by an increase in average client equity and average money-market/FDIC sweep client balances of 55% and 16%, respectively, as well as an increase in short-term interest rates.

    Gain on Acquisition and Other Gains

    Other Gains

    The results of the nine months ended June 30, 2022 include a nonrecurring gain of $6.4 million related to a foreign exchange antitrust class action settlement received in March 2022.

    The results of the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021 include a gain of $3.3 million related to the acquisition of Gain Capital Holdings, Inc. (“Gain”) in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, due to an adjustment to the final liabilities assumed, resulting in an adjustment from the initially determined values as of August 1, 2020. We also recognized a net gain on the disposal of fixed assets in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021.

    Impact of the Gain on Acquisition

    The Company acquired Gain, effective August 1, 2020. When evaluating the acquisition of Gain, management also considers the amortization expense related to the intangible assets identified and recorded as part of the acquisition and the net loss on the internal merger of the operations of Gain’s U.K. subsidiaries.

    The following table presents income before tax, income tax expense, and net income as reported in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The following table also presents adjusted income before tax, adjusted income tax expense, and adjusted net income, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The “adjusted” non-GAAP financial measures reflect each item after removing the impact of the related transaction costs and other expenses for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Management believes that presenting our results excluding the transaction costs and other expenses is meaningful, as it increases the comparability of period-to-period results.

    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.

    Appendix A

    The “adjusted” non-GAAP amounts reflect each item after removing the impact of the related transaction costs and other expenses for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Management believes that presenting our results excluding the related transaction costs and other expenses is meaningful, as it increases the comparability of period-to-period results.

    (1) For the nine months ended June 30, 2021, operating revenues included unrealized losses on derivative positions of $4.9 million used to mitigate our exposure to the British Pound in the acquired Gain subsidiaries in advance of the March 1, 2021 transfer of the majority of the operations of Gain’s U.K. domiciled subsidiaries into StoneX Financial Ltd., a U.S. dollar denominated entity. In addition, as Gain’s U.K. subsidiaries had a functional currency of British Pound, the increased U.S. dollar exposure resulted in a foreign currency gain on revaluation of $0.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.
