Futu Announces First Quarter 2025 Unaudited Financial Results

HONG KONG, May 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Futu Holdings Limited (“Futu” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: FUTU), a leading tech-driven online brokerage and wealth management platform, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.

First Quarter 2025 Operational Highlights

First Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights

Mr. Leaf Hua Li, Futu’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We started 2025 on a strong note, adding approximately 262 thousand funded accounts in the first quarter, up 47.8% year-over-year and 21.9% quarter-over-quarter. Total funded accounts reached 2.7 million, representing a 41.6% increase year-over-year and a 10.9% increase quarter-over-quarter. Hong Kong remained the top contributor to new funded accounts, as our marketing initiatives effectively leveraged the Hong Kong market rally and IPO boom. We believe that brokers with leading brand equity, product experience and execution capabilities will gain outsized benefits from strong equity market performance. Malaysia posted the fastest sequential growth in new funded accounts among all seven markets. After a year of rapid market share gain in Malaysia, we think there is ample headroom for further growth and will continue to invest in our product and our brand. In Japan, new funded accounts enjoyed robust growth and reached a historic high, as we solidified our position as the go-to broker for U.S. stock trading. Funded account growth accelerated in the U.S. as we enhanced our offerings for active traders and our high-profile advertising campaigns boosted brand visibility. With one-third of our full-year target already achieved, we remain firmly on track to meet our guidance of 800 thousand net new funded accounts in 2025.”

1 The number of funded accounts refers to the number of brokerage accounts with Futu that have a positive account balance. Multiple funded accounts by one client are counted as one funded account.

2 Multiple brokerage accounts by one client are counted as one brokerage account.

3 The number of users refers to the number of user accounts registered with Futu.

4 Non-GAAP adjusted net income is defined as net income excluding share-based compensation expenses.

“Total client assets reached HK$829.8 billion, up 60.2% year-over-year and 11.6% quarter-over-quarter, thanks to record net asset inflow. In Singapore, total client assets rose 11.4% quarter-over-quarter, sustaining its streak of double-digit sequential growth. Average client assets in Canada and Australia also logged five straight quarters of sequential increase. Margin financing and securities lending balance at quarter end remained largely stable at HK$50.3 billion, due to lower risk appetite in the second half of the quarter amid market pullback.”

“Total trading volume was HK$3.22 trillion, up 140.1% year-over-year and 11.4% quarter-over-quarter. U.S. stock trading volume grew 8.2% sequentially to HK$2.25 trillion, bolstered by clients’ bottom fishing of technology and semiconductor names. Hong Kong stock trading volume increased 21.4% quarter-over-quarter to HK$916.0 billion, as DeepSeek-induced market rally reignited investor interest.”

“We continued to drive product innovation, empowering retail investors with cutting-edge investment tools and seamless investment experience. In Hong Kong, we unveiled Futubull AI, our proprietarily trained, AI-powered investment assistance, and revealed a new desktop version with more intuitive tools and advanced features. In Japan, we continued to enhance our U.S. stock offerings as we rolled out U.S. fractional shares trading in the first quarter and subsequently launched U.S. options trading in April.”

“Wealth management client assets were HK$139.2 billion as of quarter end, up 117.7% year-over-year and 25.6% quarter-over-quarter. 29% of funded accounts held wealth management products, a further climb from 28% in the previous quarter. Money market funds remained the primary driver of asset inflow given the seek for stable returns amid market volatility. In Hong Kong and Singapore, we broadened our structured product suite with FX-linked notes in the first quarter. We also onboarded equity funds in Malaysia and money market funds in Japan.”

“We had 498 IPO distribution and IR clients as of quarter end, up 15.8% year-over-year. During the quarter, we served as joint lead manager for several high-profile Hong Kong IPOs, including those of Bloks Group and Guming Holdings. For both of these transactions, we were the exclusive online broker for IPO distribution. Notably, in the MIXUE Group IPO, more than 70 thousand clients contributed to over HK$1 trillion in subscription amount, putting us first among all brokers in number of subscribers and total subscription amount.”

Brokerage commission and handling charge income was HK$2,310.2 million (US$296.9 million), an increase of 113.5% from the first quarter of 2024. This was mainly due to higher trading volume, partially offset by the decline in blended commission rate.

Interest income was HK$2,070.5 million (US$266.1 million), an increase of 52.9% from the first quarter of 2024. The increase was mainly driven by higher interest income from securities borrowing and lending business, margin financing and bank deposits.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses non-GAAP adjusted net income, a non-GAAP measure, as a supplemental measure to review and assess its operating performance. The presentation of the non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company defines non-GAAP adjusted net income as net income excluding share-based compensation expenses. The Company presents the non-GAAP financial measure because it is used by the management to evaluate the operating performance and formulate business plans. Non-GAAP adjusted net income enables the management to assess the Company's operating results without considering the impact of share-based compensation expenses, which are non-cash charges. The Company also believes that the use of the non-GAAP measure facilitates investors' assessment of its operating performance.

Non-GAAP adjusted net income is not defined under U.S. GAAP and is not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. This non-GAAP financial measure has limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using non-GAAP adjusted net income is that it does not reflect all items of expense that affect the Company's operations. Share-based compensation expenses have been and may continue to be incurred in the business and is not reflected in the presentation of non-GAAP adjusted net income. Further, the non-GAAP measure may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.

The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measure to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company's performance.

For more information on this non-GAAP financial measure, please see the table captioned "Unaudited Reconciliations of Non-GAAP and GAAP Results" set forth at the end of this press release.
