TRADEWEB REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2023 FINANCIAL RESULTS
New York, October 26, 2023 – Tradeweb Markets Inc. (Nasdaq: TW), a leading, global operator of electronic marketplaces for rates, credit, equities and money markets, today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.
$328.4 million quarterly revenues, an increase of 14.4% (12.5% on a constant currency basis) compared to prior year period
$1.4 trillion average daily volume (“ADV”) for the quarter, an increase of 29.6% compared to prior year period; quarterly ADV records in fully electronic U.S. High Grade credit, global repurchase agreements, Chinese bonds and swaps/swaptions ≥ 1-year; record 16.6% share of fully electronic U.S. High Grade TRACE and a record 7.8% share of fully electronic U.S. High Yield TRACE
$111.6 million net income and $130.8 million adjusted net income for the quarter, increases of 36.9% and 22.8% respectively from prior year period
51.9% adjusted EBITDA margin and $170.4 million adjusted EBITDA for the quarter, compared to 51.0% and $146.3 million respectively for prior year period
$0.46 diluted earnings per share (“Diluted EPS”) for the quarter and $0.55 adjusted diluted earnings per share
$0.09 per share quarterly cash dividend declared; $4.9 million of shares repurchased
Billy Hult, CEO of Tradeweb:
“Tradeweb delivered record third-quarter revenues, as heightened focus on fixed income and a sustained period of high interest rates dominated institutional, wholesale and retail client sectors. Reflecting the breadth of Tradeweb’s business, our nearly 30% year-over-year increase in quarterly ADV was fueled by strong volumes in rates, credit, equities and money markets. We continued to grow market share in credit, where our record share of fully-electronic U.S. High Grade TRACE increased by 263 bps compared to the prior year period – and has more than quadrupled over the past five years. We made continued progress against our strategic growth priorities with the closing of the Yieldbroker acquisition during the third quarter. Today, we also announced a new licensing agreement with LSEG Data & Analytics (Refinitiv), allowing LSEG to distribute our market data while providing Tradeweb with increased revenue and flexibility as we grow our market data offering.”

DISCUSSION OF RESULTS
Rates – Revenues of $172.8 million in the third quarter of 2023 increased 16.6% compared to prior year period (14.6% increase on a constant currency basis). Rates ADV was up 30.7% from prior year period, as heightened interest rate volatility drove record volume in swaps/swaptions ≥ 1-year. U.S. and European government bonds reported double-digit ADV increases from prior year period, supported by sustained rates market volatility, while Mortgages ADV was up 7.3% reflecting increased trading activity across institutional, wholesale, and retail client sectors.

Credit – Revenues of $90.1 million in the third quarter of 2023 increased 15.3% compared to prior year period (13.8% increase on a constant currency basis). Credit ADV was up 2.1% from prior year period, as strong U.S. credit volumes reflected continued client adoption across Tradeweb protocols, including request-for-quote (RFQ), Tradeweb AllTrade® and portfolio trading. European Credit ADV was up 34.4% from prior year period, while our share of fully electronic TRACE for U.S. High Grade was a record 16.6%, up 263 bps from prior year period, and U.S. High Yield was a record 7.8%, up 240 bps from prior year period.

Equities – Revenues of $20.9 million in the third quarter of 2023 decreased 1.8% compared to prior year period (4.8% decrease on a constant currency basis). Equities ADV was up 19.7% from prior year period, driven by strong U.S. ETF wholesale activity, while institutional client engagement remained robust. European ETF volumes reflected declining overall market volumes.

Money Markets – Revenues of $15.8 million in the third quarter of 2023 increased 21.5% compared to prior year period (20.0% increase on a constant currency basis). Money Markets ADV was up 30.3% from prior year period, led by record activity in global repurchase agreements and continued client adoption of Tradeweb's electronic trading solutions.

Market Data – Revenues of $23.0 million in the third quarter of 2023 increased 8.2% compared to prior year period (6.9% increase on a constant currency basis). The increase was derived primarily from increased proprietary third party market data and trade reporting services (APA) revenue.

Other – Revenues of $5.9 million in the third quarter of 2023 increased 8.8% compared to prior year period (the same percentage increase on a constant currency basis). The increase was derived primarily from increased software development and implementation revenue on behalf of certain clients.

Operating Expenses of $203.6 million in the third quarter of 2023 increased 10.5% compared to $184.3 million in prior year period due to: higher expenses related to employee compensation and benefits associated with higher headcount and incentive compensation and commission tied to our operating performance, higher technology and communications expenses related to continued investment in our data strategy and infrastructure, higher professional fee expenses due to increased legal and other costs related to acquisitions and higher depreciation and amortization expenses, driven by increases in investment in our infrastructure and expenses relating to the assets acquired in connection with the Yieldbroker acquisition.

Adjusted Expenses of $172.6 million increased 12.1% (8.5% increase on a constant currency basis) compared to prior year period due to higher expenses related to employee compensation and benefits, higher technology and communications expenses and higher depreciation and amortization. Please see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for additional information.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION
To access historical traded volumes, go to https://www.tradeweb.com/newsroom/monthly-activity-reports/ Tradeweb Markets Inc. (unless the context otherwise requires, together with its subsidiaries, referred to as “we,” “our,” “Tradeweb,” “Tradeweb Markets” or the “Company”) closed its IPO on April 8, 2019. As a result of certain reorganization transactions (the “Reorganization Transactions”) completed in connection with the IPO, on April 4, 2019, Tradeweb Markets Inc. became a holding company whose only material assets consist of its equity interest in Tradeweb Markets LLC (“TWM LLC”) and related deferred tax assets. As the sole manager of TWM LLC, Tradeweb Markets Inc. operates and controls all of the business and affairs of TWM LLC and, through TWM LLC and its subsidiaries, conducts its business. As a result of this control, and because Tradeweb Markets Inc. has a substantial financial interest in TWM LLC, Tradeweb Markets Inc. consolidates the financial results of TWM LLC and its subsidiaries.
Numerical figures included in this release have been subject to rounding adjustments and as a result totals may not be the arithmetic aggregation of the amounts that precede them and figures expressed as percentages may not total 100%.
Please refer to the Company's previously filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Annual Report on Form 10-K for capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein.
UNAUDITED INTERIM RESULTS
The interim financial results presented herein for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 are unaudited. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Statements related to, among other things, our guidance, including full-year 2023 guidance, future performance, the industry and markets in which we operate, our expectations, beliefs, plans, strategies, objectives, prospects and assumptions and future events are forward-looking statements.
We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections. While we believe these expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections are reasonable, such forward-looking statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. These and other important factors, including those discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the documents of Tradeweb Markets Inc. on file with or furnished to the SEC, may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this release are not guarantees of future events or performance and future events, our actual results of operations, financial condition or liquidity, and the development of the industry and markets in which we operate, may differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this release. In addition, even if future events, our results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity, and events in the industry and markets in which we operate, are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this release, they may not be predictive of events, results or developments in future periods. Any forward-looking statement that we make in this release speaks only as of the date of such statement. Except as required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to update or revise, or to publicly announce any update or revision to, any of the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date of this release.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This release contains “non-GAAP financial measures,” including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income per diluted share ("Adjusted Diluted EPS"), Adjusted Expenses, Free Cash Flow and constant currency change, which are supplemental financial measures that are not calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We make use of non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating our past results and future prospects. We present these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe they assist investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.
Management and our board of directors use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBIT margin to assess our financial performance and believe they are helpful in highlighting trends in our core operating performance, while other measures can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which we operate and capital investments. Further, our executive incentive compensation is based in part on components of Adjusted EBITDA.
We use Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS as supplemental metrics to evaluate our business performance in a way that also considers our ability to generate profit without the impact of certain items. Each of the normal recurring adjustments and other adjustments included in Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS help to provide management with a measure of our operating performance over time by removing items that are not related to day-to-day operations or are non-cash expenses.
We use Adjusted Expenses as a supplemental metric to evaluate our underlying operating performance over time by removing items that are not related to day-to-day operations or are non-cash expenses.
Page | 10



We use Free Cash Flow to assess our liquidity in a way that considers the amount of cash generated from our core operations after non-acquisition related expenditures for capitalized software development costs and furniture, equipment and leasehold improvements.
We present certain changes on a “constant currency” basis. Since our consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, we must translate non-U.S. dollar revenues and expenses into U.S. dollars. Constant currency change, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as change excluding the effects of foreign currency fluctuations. Constant currency information is calculated by translating the current period and prior period’s results using the annual average exchange rates for the prior period. We use constant currency change as a supplemental metric to evaluate our underlying performance between periods by removing the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. We present certain constant currency change information because we believe it provides investors and analysts a useful comparison of our results and trends between periods. This information should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with GAAP.
See the attached schedules for reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures contained in this release to their most comparable GAAP financial measure. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider these non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as alternatives to net income attributable to Tradeweb Markets Inc., net income, net income margin, earnings per share, operating income, operating expenses, cash flow from operating activities or any other financial measure prepared or derived in accordance with GAAP. You are encouraged to evaluate each adjustment included in the reconciliations. In addition, in evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT margin, Adjusted EBT, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted Expenses and Free Cash Flow, you should be aware that in the future, we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures.
Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures contained in this release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in our industry or across different industries.
MARKET AND INDUSTRY DATA
This release includes estimates regarding market and industry data that we prepared based on our management’s knowledge and experience in the markets in which we operate, together with information obtained from various sources, including publicly available information, industry reports and publications, surveys, our clients, trade and business organizations and other contacts in the markets in which we operate. In presenting this information, we have made certain assumptions that we believe to be reasonable based on such data and other similar sources and on our knowledge of, and our experience to date in, the markets in which we operate. While such information is believed to be reliable for the purposes used herein, no representations are made as to the accuracy or completeness thereof and we take no responsibility for such information.
TRADEWEB SOCIAL MEDIA
Investors and others should note that Tradeweb announces material financial and operational information using its investor relations website, press releases, SEC filings and public conference calls and webcasts. Information about Tradeweb, its business and its results of operations may also be announced by posts on the Company’s accounts on the following social media channels: Instagram, LinkedIn and X (formerly Twitter). The information that we post through these social media channels may be deemed material. As a result, we encourage investors, the media, and others interested in Tradeweb to monitor these social media channels in addition to following our investor relations website, press releases, SEC filings and public conference calls and webcasts.

Enrico Bruni, Managing Director and member of the Tradeweb executive committee, commented: “This new licensing agreement builds upon Tradeweb’s longstanding relationship with LSEG, enabling us to easily collaborate on new use cases and providing greater flexibility to further our growth strategy in market data. With markets becoming more and more electronic, clients increasingly turn to our composite data for its transparency and to help improve execution.”

Stuart Brown, Group Head of Enterprise Data Solutions, LSEG, commented: “We are thrilled to continue pairing the strengths of LSEG’s distribution, reach and technology along with Tradeweb’s growing suite of valuable market data for our customers. This new agreement signals the continuation of a longstanding, strategic relationship that helps deliver quality data across the front, middle and back office.”

Effective November 1, 2023, this new licensing agreement replaces an existing agreement that was initiated in 2010 and most recently renewed in 2018. LSEG will continue to distribute Tradeweb data directly to its customers, including through its flagship financial platforms, LSEG Workspace, Datascope, LSEG Pricing Service and Tick History. Tradeweb currently offers a robust and growing universe of data, including benchmark closing prices. Most recently, Tradeweb began providing clients with Tradeweb FTSE Euro Government Bond Closing Prices, following Tradeweb’s well-established UK Benchmark Regulation closing prices for UK Gilts. Some of the sets that both LSEG and Tradeweb will distribute on a non-exclusive basis include Emerging Market Interest Rates Swaps, European Convertibles, Bond Benchmark Closing Prices, AiPrice data sets, Tradeweb’s iNav Premium data, and MIFID non-delayed data.

*LSEG recently announced that the Refinitiv brand will be retired in the coming months.
