Action:ReiteratedDate:03/14/26
The score is driven primarily by decent but riskier financial quality (high leverage and thin margins) and weak technicals, partly offset by an attractive earnings multiple and a strong, upbeat earnings call emphasizing record results and synergy-led improvement.
Positive Factors
Strong cash generation
Consistent TTM operating and free cash flow of several billion provides durable internal funding for growth, acquisitions, capital needs and shareholder actions. Strong cash conversion reduces reliance on external financing and cushions the firm versus episodic market volatility.
Negative Factors
High leverage
Very high debt-to-equity materially increases financial risk over the medium term. Elevated leverage reduces flexibility for opportunistic investment, amplifies earnings volatility from funding-cost moves, and heightens refinancing and liquidity stress in tighter markets.

StoneX Group Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Feb 04, 2026
(Q1-2026)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:May 13, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Positive
The call conveyed a strongly positive quarter driven by record net income, EPS and revenues, significant contribution from the R.J. O'Brien and Benchmark acquisitions, outstanding performance in precious metals and listed derivatives, and improved interest income. Material growth was offset by notable softness in FX/CFD and self-directed retail revenues, near-term expense increases (including legal and integration costs), and the need to fully realize acquisition synergies over time. On balance, the positive operational and financial momentum and scale benefits from acquisitions outweigh the headwinds.Positive Updates
Record Net Income, EPS and Revenues
Net income of $139 million (record) and diluted EPS of $2.50 for the quarter; net income up 63% year-over-year and EPS up 48% year-over-year. Operating revenues just over $1.4 billion, up 52% versus prior year; net operating revenues up 47% versus prior year.
Negative Updates
FX/CFD Revenue and Rate Compression
FX/CFD revenues declined 30% year-over-year (from a near-record prior year quarter); rate per million declined ~30% and average daily volume declined 4% year-over-year, driven by lower spread retention in self-directed business and muted FX volatility.

Company Guidance
Management said the R.J. O'Brien integration remains on track (U.K. entity migration completed, releasing $20M of capital; U.S. consolidation targeted by year‑end) and reaffirmed expected cost synergies of $50M to be realized across fiscal 2026–27 while expanding OTC products (power in Australia, carbon in Europe), opening Madrid and Paris offices and advancing digitization. They reiterated strong financial positioning after a record Q1 — net income $139M, diluted EPS $2.50 (up 63% and 48% YoY), operating revenues just over $1.4B (up 52% YoY), net operating revenues up 47% YoY, ROE 22.5% (32.4% return on tangible book), trailing‑12‑month net income $359.8M, diluted EPS $6.70 and ROE 16.9% — and highlighted product performance (listed derivatives op rev +141% YoY, physical contracts +69% YoY including $75M precious metals segment income, OTC +72%, securities +43%, FX/CFD down 30%). On the balance‑sheet and interest sensitivity front they noted book value per share $48.17, average client equity +100% (RJO added $5.8B), entry into $1.2B of fixed‑rate SOFR swaps (2‑yr duration, avg rate 3.32%), and that a 100‑bp short‑term rate move would change annualized net income by $43.2M (≈$0.80/sh); the Board also approved a three‑for‑two stock split (record Mar 10, distribution Mar 20, trading Mar 23).StoneX Group Financial Statement Overview
