Tradeweb Markets reports Q2 EPS 52c, consensus 50c

Reports Q2 revenue $310.61, consensus $309.07M. “Market conditions steadily improved during the second quarter, with our business performing well against a backdrop of mixed markets. We produced double-digit revenue growth across global government bonds, U.S. and European Credit, equity derivatives, and money markets. In Credit, we captured a record 16.0% share of fully-electronic U.S. High Grade TRACE for the month of June and a record 14.9% for the quarter. It was not long ago that our share of U.S. High Grade was in the single digits, and we remain confident in our ability to realize continued market share growth. More broadly, one theme playing a huge role across all of our markets is automation. Average daily trades through our AiEX automation tool grew by 90% in Treasuries and 70% in Credit this quarter compared with prior year period. In Market Data, we continue to evolve our Ai-Price bond-pricing engine with new innovations such as this quarter’s launch of benchmark closing prices for European government bonds with FTSE Russell.”
