CHICAGO, April 29, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Cboe Global Markets, Inc. (Cboe: CBOE) today reported financial results for the first quarter of 2022.
"2022 is off to an extraordinary start with Cboe delivering record quarterly results following a record year in 2021. Not only did our core derivatives franchise perform remarkably well during the quarter, but we saw strong contributions from areas like our European cash equities and our Data and Access Solutions businesses, underscoring the power of the flywheel at the heart of Cboe's global value creation model," said Edward T. Tilly, Cboe Global Markets Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "These comprehensive results validate the investments we are making across our ecosystem around the globe. Moving forward, we look to build on our strong foundation with the expected close of the NEO and ErisX acquisitions3, expansion of our SPX Weekly Options product suite and continued growth of our European Derivatives platform. There is a tremendous amount of momentum at Cboe, and I am incredibly proud of the Cboe team's ability to deliver on the company's longer-term aspirations."
"Cboe built on the momentum seen in 2021 to deliver another quarter of record earnings to start 2022. The contribution was again balanced across our businesses," said Brian N. Schell, Cboe Global Markets Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. "Following the strong start to the year, we are reaffirming our full year revenue and expense guidance for 2022 but see potential upside to our revenue expectations given the performance of our growth initiatives and macro trading environment. Furthermore, I am excited to introduce our enhanced reporting structure, with the updated income statement reflecting how we think about our major categories of the business: cash and spot markets, data and access solutions, and derivatives markets. Growth from each was strong in the first quarter with net revenues from derivatives markets1 growing

- Total revenues less cost of revenues (referred to as "net revenue") of
$418.1 million increased 14 percent, compared to$365.5 million in the prior-year period, reflecting increases in net transaction and clearing fees1 and access and capacity fees. Inorganic net revenue1 in the first quarter of 2022 was$8.4 million . - Total operating expenses were
$178.4 million versus$160.9 million in the first quarter of 2021. Adjusted operating expenses¹ of$145.8 million increased 17 percent compared to$124.6 million in the first quarter of 2021, primarily due to the acquisition of Cboe Asia Pacific (formerly Chi-X Asia Pacific), which closed on July 1, 2021, as well as an increase in salaries and wages resulting in higher compensation and benefits. Additionally, professional fees and outside services increased compared to the first quarter of 2021 primarily due to higher legal fees. - The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2022 was 51.3 percent (29.9 percent excluding Section 199 related matters1) compared with 28.9 percent in the first quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to the unfavorable decision rendered by the Tax Court in our Section 199 matter. The effective tax rate on adjusted earnings1 was 29.0 percent compared with 27.9 percent in last year's first quarter. The higher effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2022 was primarily due to changes in income tax reserves.
- Diluted EPS for the first quarter of 2022 decreased 20 percent to
$1.02 primarily due to$48.5 million of additional tax reserves, primarily related to Section 199 litigation. Adjusted diluted EPS1 of$1.73 increased 13 percent compared to 2021's first quarter results.

Discussion of Results by Business Segment:
Options:
- Options net revenue of
$219.2 million was up$37.5 million , or 21 percent, from the first quarter of 2021, due to double-digit increases in net transaction and clearing fees1, access and capacity fees, and market data. Net transaction and clearing fees increased primarily as a result of a 27 percent increase in Index options trading volumes versus the first quarter of 2021, along with a 7 percent increase in Index options revenue per contract ("RPC") for the quarter. Access and capacity fees were 22 percent higher than first quarter 2021 and market data fees increased by 26 percent. - Net transaction and clearing fees1 increased
$36.8 million , or 27 percent, reflecting a 6 percent increase in total options average daily volume ("ADV") and a 18 percent increase in total options RPC compared to the first quarter 2021. The increase in total options RPC was due to a mix shift, with Index options representing a higher percentage of total options volume. The RPC for Index options increased 7 percent as SPX options accounted for a higher percentage of Index options volume. - Cboe's Options business had total market share of 31.5 percent for the first quarter of 2022 compared to 30.2 percent in the first quarter of 2021, primarily reflecting an increase in Cboe's multi-listed options market share for the quarter of 27.4 percent compared to 26.9 percent in the first quarter of 2021.
North American (N.A.) Equities:
- N.A. Equities net revenue of
$93.1 million was down$3.0 million , or 3 percent, primarily due to lower transaction and clearing fees and lower market data fees. Year-over-year growth in access and capacity fees helped offset some of the declines in the segment. Transaction and clearing fees were impacted by lower industry volumes compared to outsized activity in the first quarter of 2021. RPC increased by 8 percent compared to first quarter 2021 given a lower percentage of low-priced retail trading in the first quarter of 2022. - Cboe U.S. Equities exchanges had market share of 14.3 percent for the first quarter of 2022 compared to 15.0 percent in the first quarter of 2021.
Europe and Asia Pacific:
- Europe and Asia Pacific net revenue of
$57.5 million increased by 37 percent, reflecting growth in European equities and clearing, and the addition of Cboe Asia Pacific in July 2021, which contributed$8.4 million in net revenue. European Equities average daily notional value ("ADNV") for the overall market was up 31 percent during the quarter and ADNV traded on Cboe European Equities was€12.8 billion , up 71 percent from last year's first quarter. Net capture decreased 18 percent for the quarter, reflecting the strongest gains coming in Lit market share, outpacing solid activity in higher-margin Cboe BIDS Europe and Periodic Auction services, as well as the impact of volume tier pricing given the higher volumes and market share. - For the first quarter of 2022, Cboe European Equities had 21.8 percent market share, up from 16.8 percent in the first quarter of 2021, as a result of positive momentum across all orderbooks, with a particular strength in Lit markets.
Futures:
- Futures net revenue of
$31.2 million increased$0.6 million , or 2 percent, due to slight increases in net transaction and clearing fees1, access and capacity fees, and market data. - Net transaction and clearing fees¹ increased
$0.2 million , or 1 percent, reflecting relatively flat ADV and RPC.
Global FX:
- Global FX net revenue of
$17.1 million increased 16 percent, primarily as a result of higher net transaction and clearing fees¹. ADNV traded on the Cboe FX platform was$42.0 billion for the quarter, up 13 percent compared to last year's first quarter and net capture per one million dollars traded was$2.67 for the quarter, up 1 percent compared to$2.65 in the first quarter of 2021. - Cboe FX market share was 17.3 percent for the quarter compared to 16.5 percent in last year's first quarter.

Income Statement Presentation Enhancement
Beginning in the first quarter of 2022, Cboe updated the financial statement captions within its condensed consolidated statements of income for both periods presented to better reflect the company's diversified products, expansive geographical reach, and overall business strategy. Below is a summary of the changes to the financial statement captions. The changes do not have a financial impact on Cboe's reported revenue, revenues less cost of revenues, reported net income, or cash flows from operations.
Revenues
- Cash and spot markets – includes associated transaction and clearing fees, the portion of market data fees relating to associated U.S. tape plan market data fees, associated regulatory fees, and associated other revenue from Cboe's North American Equities, Europe and Asia Pacific, and Global FX segments.
- Data and access solutions – includes access and capacity fees, proprietary market data fees, and associated other revenue across Cboe's five segments.
- Derivatives markets – includes associated transaction and clearing fees, the portion of market data fees relating to associated U.S. tape plan market data fees, associated regulatory fees, and associated other revenue from Cboe's Options, Futures, and Europe and Asia Pacific segments.
Cost of Revenues
- Royalty fees and other cost of revenues – includes royalty fees and other cost of revenues across Cboe's five segments.
The corresponding changes have been made to prior periods to conform to the current presentation.
2022 Fiscal Year Financial Guidance
Cboe provided guidance for the 2022 fiscal year as noted below. Unless explicitly noted below, this guidance does not take into account the company's planned acquisitions of ErisX (which is expected to close in the second quarter of this year, subject to customary closing conditions) and NEO, (expected to close in the second or third quarter of the year, subject to regulatory review and other customary closing conditions). The company plans to further update its guidance for 2022 after the acquisitions close.
- Reaffirmed total organic net revenue growth1 is expected to be in the range of 5 to 7 percentage points in 2022.
- Revenue from acquisitions held less than a year1 is now expected to contribute total net revenue growth in a range of 2 to 3 percentage points in 2022, up from previous guidance of 1 to 3 percentage points.
- Organic net revenue1 from Data and Access Solutions is now expected to increase by approximately 8 to 11 percent in 2022, from a base of
$419 million in 2021, up from previous guidance of 7 to 10 percent. - Reaffirmed adjusted operating expenses1 in 2022 are expected to be in the range of
$617 to$625 million , from a base of$531 million in 2021. The 2022 guidance considers incremental investment spend in technology and headcount to support Cboe's numerous growth initiatives, deals closed during 2021 but not fully reflected in the 2021 cost base, and increases in core expenses. The guidance excludes the expected amortization of acquired intangible assets of$116 million ; the company plans to reflect the exclusion of this amount in its non-GAAP reconciliation.1 - While not included in our formal 2022 expense guidance range of
$617 to$625 million , we believe the pending acquisitions of ErisX and NEO now have the potential to add an incremental$30 to$35 million of expenses in 2022, contingent on the timing of closings which are subject to customary closing conditions. We continue to anticipate a potential revenue offset for more than half of the expenses in year one, with an expectation that the additions are EBITDA positive on a combined basis in year two. - Reaffirmed depreciation and amortization expense for 2022, which is included in adjusted operating expenses above, is expected to be in the range of
$40 to$44 million , excluding the expected amortization of acquired intangible assets. - Reaffirmed the effective tax rate1 on adjusted earnings for the full year 2022 is expected to be in the range of 27.5 to 29.5 percent. Significant changes in trading volume, expenses, tax laws or rates and other items could materially impact this expectation.
- Reaffirmed capital expenditures for 2022 are expected to be in the range of
$47 to$52 million .
(1) Specific quantifications of the amounts that would be required to reconcile the company's organic and inorganic growth guidance, adjusted operating expenses guidance and the effective tax rate on adjusted earnings guidance are not available. The company believes that there is uncertainty and unpredictability with respect to certain of its GAAP measures, primarily related to acquisition-related revenues and expenses that would be required to reconcile to GAAP revenues less costs of revenues, GAAP operating expenses and GAAP effective tax rate, which preclude the company from providing accurate guidance on certain forward-looking GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations. The company believes that providing estimates of the amounts that would be required to reconcile the range of the company's organic growth, adjusted operating expenses and the effective tax rate on adjusted earnings would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors for the reasons identified above. |

Non-GAAP Information
In addition to disclosing results determined in accordance with GAAP, Cboe Global Markets has disclosed certain non-GAAP measures of operating performance. These measures are not in accordance with, or a substitute for, GAAP, and may be different from or inconsistent with non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The non-GAAP measures provided in this press release include net transaction and clearing fees, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating income, organic net revenue, inorganic net revenue, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income allocated to common stockholders and adjusted diluted earnings per share, effective tax rate on adjusted earnings, adjusted cash, EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin.
Management believes that the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release, including adjusted operating income, organic net revenue and adjusted operating expenses, provide additional and comparative information to assess trends in our core operations and a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by management are provided as additional information to investors in order to provide them with an alternative method for assessing our financial condition and operating results.
Organic net revenue, inorganic net revenue, organic non-transaction revenue and organic net revenue guidance: These are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude or have otherwise been adjusted for the impact of our acquisitions for the period or guidance, as applicable. Management believes the organic net revenue growth and guidance measures provide users with supplemental information regarding the company's ongoing and future potential revenue performances and trends by presenting revenue growth and guidance excluding the impact of the acquisitions. Revenues from acquisitions that have been owned for at least one year are considered organic and are no longer excluded from organic net revenue from either period for comparative purposes.
Amortization expense of acquired intangible assets: We amortize intangible assets acquired in connection with various acquisitions. Amortization of intangible assets is inconsistent in amount and frequency and is significantly affected by the timing and size of our acquisitions. As such, if intangible asset amortization is included in performance measures, it is more difficult to assess the day-to-day operating performance of the businesses, the relative operating performance of the businesses between periods and the earnings power of the company. Therefore, we believe performance measures excluding intangible asset amortization expense provide investors with an additional basis for comparison across accounting periods.
Acquisition-related expenses: From time to time, we have pursued acquisitions, which have resulted in expenses which would not otherwise have been incurred in the normal course of the company's business operations. These expenses include integration costs, as well as legal, due diligence and other third-party transaction costs. The frequency and the amount of such expenses vary significantly based on the size, timing and complexity of the transaction. Accordingly, we exclude these costs for purposes of calculating non-GAAP measures which provide an additional analysis of Cboe's ongoing operating performance or comparisons in Cboe's performance between periods.
The tables below show the reconciliation of each financial measure from GAAP to non-GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures exclude the impact of those items detailed below and are referred to as adjusted financial measures.

EBITDA Reconciliations
EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA are widely used non-GAAP financial measures of operating performance. EBITDA margin represents EBITDA divided by revenues less cost of revenues (net revenue). It is presented as supplemental information that the company believes is useful to investors to evaluate its results because it excludes certain items that are not directly related to the company's core operating performance. EBITDA is calculated by adding back to net income interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adding back to EBITDA acquisition-related expenses and investment establishment costs. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as substitutes either for net income, as an indicator of the company's operating performance, or for cash flow, as a measure of the company's liquidity. In addition, because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be calculated identically by all companies, the presentation here may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue.
