GREENWICH, CONN, October 20, 2011 — Interactive Brokers Group, Inc. (NASDAQ GS: IBKR) an automated global electronic broker and market maker, today reported diluted earnings per share of $0.50 for the quarter ended September 30, 2011, compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.26 for the same period in 2010.
On a comprehensive basis, which includes the effect of changes in the U.S. dollar value of the Company’s non-U.S. subsidiaries, the Company reported diluted earnings per share of $0.36 for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.52 for the same period in 2010.

Net revenues were $386 million and income before income taxes was $218 million for this quarter, compared to net revenues of $299 million and income before income taxes of $162 million for the same period in 2010.

Segment Overview
Electronic Brokerage
Electronic Brokerage segment income before income taxes grew 66%, to $106 million, in the quarter ended September 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. Commissions and execution fees increased 45% from the year-ago quarter due to growth in the number of customers and higher average trading volume per customer account. Net interest income increased 82% from the same period. Customer accounts grew 22% to 184,000 and customer equity grew 23% to $23.3 billion. Pretax profit margin increased from 49% to 55% for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 from the same period in 2010. Total DARTs(1) for cleared and execution-only customers increased 39%, to 495,000 from the year-ago quarter. Cleared DARTs were 457,000 in this quarter, 43% higher than the same period last year.
Market Making
Market Making segment income before income taxes increased 24%, to $129 million, for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 from the same period in 2010. This increase was driven by higher actual-to-implied volatility, higher trading volumes and wider bid-offer spreads. Currency translation effects negatively impacted this quarter, while they had a positive effect on the year-ago quarter’s earnings. Currency translation effects are reported in the Trading Gains of the Market Making segment. Pretax profit margin expanded to 63% in this quarter from 61% in the quarter ended September 30, 2010. Market Making options and futures contract volume increased by 60% and 14%, respectively, from the year-ago quarter.
Effects of Foreign Currency Diversification
In connection with our currency strategy, we have determined to base our net worth in GLOBALs, a basket of major currencies in which we hold our equity. In this quarter, our currency hedging program decreased our profits as the U.S. dollar value of the GLOBAL decreased by approximately 2.5%. The effects of currency hedging are reported as components of (1) Market Making Trading Gains and (2) Other Comprehensive Income, described below.
Comprehensive Income
Reported results on a comprehensive basis reflect the Company’s early adoption of newly issued U.S. GAAP guidance(2) that requires the presentation of a Statement of Comprehensive Income, replacing the former Statement of Income. The Statement of Comprehensive Income reports currency translation results that are a component of Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”) directly in this statement. Previously, OCI was reported as a component of changes in Total Equity in the Statement of Financial Condition. In periods prior to the quarter ending June 30, 2011, we reported non-GAAP measures for the purpose of incorporating all currency translation gains and losses in the Statement of Income. This reporting method is now required under GAAP guidance.

** In Brazil, an equity option contract typically represents 1 share of the underlying stock; however, the typical minimum
|
|
trading quantity is 100 contracts. To make a fair comparison to volume at other exchanges, we have adopted a policy
|
|
of reporting Brazilian equity options contracts divided by their trading quantity of 100.
