Insights

Financial Analyst

Nasdaq's Q2 2024 results demonstrate robust performance across all divisions, particularly in Solutions and Financial Technology. The 25% increase in net revenues to $1.2 billion and 10% pro forma growth indicate strong organic expansion. The 34% growth in Solutions revenues and 29% increase in ARR highlight Nasdaq's successful diversification strategy beyond traditional market services.

Key financial highlights include:

• Financial Technology revenues up 79% (16% pro forma)
• Index revenues increased 29% with $53 billion net inflows over 12 months
• GAAP diluted EPS decreased 30%, while non-GAAP diluted EPS decreased 3% but increased 7% organically

The company's focus on strategic priorities, including integration, innovation and acceleration, positions it well for future growth. However, the decrease in GAAP EPS warrants attention, likely due to increased expenses from the Adenza acquisition and restructuring charges.

Nasdaq's strong cash flow and progress on deleveraging are positive signs for financial stability. The updated non-GAAP operating expense guidance of $2,145 million to $2,185 million suggests continued investment in growth initiatives while managing costs effectively.

Market Research Analyst

Nasdaq's Q2 2024 results reflect its strong market position and successful execution of growth strategies. The company's leadership in U.S. listings, with a 72% win rate for eligible operating companies, underscores its dominance in the IPO market. This, coupled with the record-breaking Russell U.S. indexes reconstitution, demonstrates Nasdaq's operational excellence and market infrastructure strength.

Key market insights include:

• 31 U.S. operating company IPOs raising over $3 billion in proceeds
• Record $95.3 billion in market value traded during the Russell reconstitution
• Index ETP AUM reaching a record $569 billion at quarter-end

The 25% increase in Index derivatives trading volumes indicates growing demand for Nasdaq's index products. The launch of 18 new products, including institutional-focused insurance annuity vehicles and international offerings, showcases Nasdaq's product innovation and global expansion efforts.

The strong performance in Financial Technology, particularly in Financial Crime Management and AxiomSL/Calypso, reflects the increasing demand for risk management and compliance solutions in the financial sector. The high gross and net revenue retention rates for AxiomSL and Calypso (96% and 111% respectively) indicate strong client satisfaction and upsell potential.

Overall, Nasdaq's Q2 results demonstrate its ability to capitalize on market trends and maintain its competitive edge in both traditional and emerging financial technology sectors.

Tech Expert

Nasdaq's Q2 2024 results highlight its successful integration of technology-driven solutions and strategic focus on innovation. The strong performance in Financial Technology and Market Technology segments underscores Nasdaq's position as a leading provider of critical financial infrastructure and solutions.

Key technological advancements and achievements include:

• Financial Crime Management Technology ARR growth of 25%
• 68% of new bookings for AxiomSL and Calypso were cloud-based
• Launch of AI-enabled pension meeting minutes summarization tool in eVestment
• Successful upgrade of Indonesia Stock Exchange's core trading platform

The company's focus on cloud adoption and AI integration demonstrates its commitment to staying at the forefront of financial technology. The high percentage of cloud-based bookings for AxiomSL and Calypso indicates a strong shift towards cloud solutions in the financial sector, which could lead to improved scalability and cost-efficiency for clients.

Nasdaq's continued investment in AI capabilities, as evidenced by the new summarization tool in eVestment and planned AI features in upcoming quarters, positions the company well to capitalize on the growing demand for AI-driven solutions in finance.

The successful execution of cross-sells (11 since the Adenza acquisition) demonstrates Nasdaq's ability to leverage its expanded product portfolio effectively. This, combined with the company's focus on innovation and integration, suggests a strong foundation for future technological advancements and market expansion in the financial technology space.

We continued the momentum in our Financial Technology division as financial institutions remain focused on resilience, risk management, and infrastructure modernization.

We are also pleased with our progress across our strategic priorities. We are delivering on our integration targets ahead of schedule, we have exciting AI-driven innovation within our products, and we are starting to see results in cross-sells through our One Nasdaq strategy."

Sarah Youngwood, Executive Vice President and CFO said, “Nasdaq delivered a quarter of strong top-line growth and positive operating leverage.

We successfully executed on our first deleveraging goal and achieved our year-end 2024 actioned synergy target six months in advance.

Looking ahead, we are well-positioned to deliver durable organic growth and profitability, and make progress on our capital allocation priorities.”

FINANCIAL REVIEW     

• Second quarter 2024 net revenues were $1.2 billion, an increase of $234 million, reflecting 25% growth versus the prior year period, or 10% growth on a pro forma basis. Revenue growth includes a $168 million benefit related to the acquisition of Adenza, partially offset by a $2 million decrease from the impact of changes in FX rates.

• Solutions revenues were $901 million in the second quarter of 2024, an increase of $228 million, up 34% versus the prior year period, or 13% growth on a pro forma basis, reflecting strong growth from Index and Financial Technology.

• ARR grew 29% year over year, or 7% on a pro forma basis, in the second quarter with 13% pro forma ARR growth for Financial Technology and 1% ARR growth for Capital Access Platforms.

• Market Services net revenues were $250 million in the second quarter of 2024, an increase of $8 million, or 3%, versus the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by a $7 million increase in U.S. cash equities and a $2 million increase in European cash equities, partially offset by a $4 million decline in U.S. tape plan revenue.

• Second quarter 2024 GAAP operating expenses were $736 million, an increase of $193 million, or 36%, versus the prior year period. The increase for the second quarter of 2024 is primarily due to the acquisition of Adenza, which resulted in an additional $85 million in amortization expense of acquired intangible assets, $67 million of other AxiomSL and Calypso operating expenses, and $37 million of increased restructuring charges associated with the program we initiated to optimize our efficiencies as a combined organization and integrating the Adenza acquisition, as well as organic growth driven by increased investments in technology and our people to drive innovation and long-term growth. These increases were partially offset by a $41 million decrease in merger and strategic initiatives expense and the benefit of synergies.

• Second quarter 2024 non-GAAP operating expenses were $539 million, an increase of $98 million, reflecting 22% growth versus the prior year period, or 7% growth on a pro forma basis. The increase for the second quarter of 2024 is primarily due to the inclusion of $67 million of AxiomSL and Calypso operating expenses. The pro forma increase reflects growth driven by increased investments in technology and our people to drive innovation and long-term growth, partially offset by the benefit of synergies.

• Second quarter 2024 cash flow from operations was $460 million, enabling the company to continue to make meaningful progress on its deleveraging plan. In the second quarter of 2024, the company returned $138 million to shareholders through dividends and $58 million through repurchases of our common stock. The company also repaid a net $174 million of commercial paper in the second quarter of 2024. As of June 30, 2024, there was $1.8 billion remaining under the board authorized share repurchase program.

2024 EXPENSE AND TAX GUIDANCE UPDATE⁶

• The company is updating its 2024 non-GAAP operating expense guidance to a range of $2,145 million to $2,185 million, and maintaining its 2024 non-GAAP tax rate guidance to be in the range of 24.5% to 26.5%.

STRATEGIC AND BUSINESS UPDATES

• Financial Technology delivered strong revenue growth in the second quarter. Performance in the division reflected the value of its mission-critical solutions and clients moving towards more strategic, long-term partnerships across the most critical areas of risk and compliance. Financial Technology pro forma ARR growth was 13% in the second quarter, while achieving 67 new customers, 96 upsells, and 4 cross-sells. Highlights in the second quarter include:
  
  • Financial Crime Management Technology ARR growth of 25% reflects sustained SMB customer momentum and continued progress in its enterprise strategy. Financial Crime Management Technology signed 53 new SMB clients while building its Tier 1 and Tier 2 pipeline with growth in proofs-of-concept (POCs) across this client segment. Financial Crime Management Technology also signed a new Tier 1 bank in July 2024. 
  • AxiomSL and Calypso achieved 14% combined pro forma ARR growth with strong cloud bookings. AxiomSL and Calypso delivered a combined 58 upsells and 6 new clients, indicative of the strength of client relationships and value of the offerings. 68% of new bookings in the quarter were cloud-based. Combined gross revenue retention⁷ was 96% and net revenue retention⁸ was 111%. Excluding the impact of a significant bankruptcy first noted in the fourth quarter of 2023, pro forma ARR growth was 15%, gross revenue retention was 98% and net revenue retention was 112%. 
  • Market Technology delivered 9% ARR growth, reflecting ongoing execution within the market modernization megatrend. Market Technology grew subscription revenue 9%, inline with ARR growth, with 9 upsells and 2 new clients, including a new partnership with the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) to upgrade its market infrastructure. IDX will upgrade its core trading platform to Nasdaq’s most advanced matching engine and committed to extend its use of Nasdaq’s market surveillance solution.

• Index delivered another quarter of exceptional performance and advanced its growth strategy across product innovation, globalization, and institutional client expansion. Index had $53 billion in net inflows over the trailing 12 months, with $17 billion in the second quarter. Nasdaq’s Index business achieved another record in Index ETP AUM, averaging $531 billion during the second quarter and reaching $569 billion at quarter-end. Index derivatives trading volumes increased 25% year-over-year, also contributing to revenue growth in the quarter. Nasdaq partnered in the launch of 18 new products in the quarter, including 3 insurance annuity vehicles targeting institutional clients, and half of these product launches were outside the United States.
• Nasdaq extended its listings leadership in the U.S. in the second quarter of 2024. As IPO activity improved in the second quarter, Nasdaq had a 72% win rate of eligible operating companies, reflecting 31 U.S. operating company IPOs that raised more than $3 billion in proceeds. This achievement marks the 42nd consecutive quarter of Nasdaq’s leadership in the number of U.S. operating company listings.
• Nasdaq executed the highest ever one-day notional Closing Cross volume in June. During the annual Russell U.S. indexes reconstitution, Nasdaq successfully facilitated approximately 2.9 billion shares traded in 0.878 seconds across Nasdaq-listed securities, representing a record $95.3 billion dollars in market value.
• Nasdaq’s performance was further enhanced by continued progress against its 2024 strategic priorities – Integrate, Innovate, Accelerate – positioning the company to capitalize on opportunities for sustainable, scalable, and resilient growth.
  
  • Integrate - Nasdaq actioned over 70% of its net expense synergy goal and achieved its 4.0x deleveraging target ahead of schedule.
  • Innovate - Consistent with GenAI capabilities recently released in Verafin and BoardVantage, Nasdaq launched an AI-enabled pension meeting minutes summarization tool within eVestment while expanding the pipeline of AI features scheduled for introduction in upcoming quarters.
  • Accelerate - Nasdaq completed 11 cross-sells since the close of the Adenza transaction, including 4 during the second quarter.
    

____________
¹ Represents revenues less transaction-based expenses.
² Pro forma results are presented assuming AxiomSL and Calypso were included in the prior year quarterly results. These results are not calculated in a manner consistent with the pro forma requirements in Article 11 of Regulation S-X. Pro forma growth excludes the impacts of foreign currency except for AxiomSL and Calypso, which are not yet calculated on an organic basis.
³ Constitutes revenues from our Capital Access Platforms and Financial Technology segments.
⁴ Annualized Recurring Revenue (ARR) for a given period is the current annualized value derived from subscription contracts with a defined contract value. This excludes contracts that are not recurring, are one-time in nature or where the contract value fluctuates based on defined metrics. ARR is currently one of our key performance metrics to assess the health and trajectory of our recurring business. ARR does not have any standardized definition and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. ARR should be viewed independently of revenue and deferred revenue and is not intended to be combined with or to replace either of those items. For AxiomSL and Calypso recurring revenue contracts, the amount included in ARR is consistent with the amount that we invoice the customer during the current period. Additionally, for AxiomSL and Calypso recurring revenue contracts that include annual values that increase over time, we include in ARR only the annualized value of components of the contract that are considered active as of the date of the ARR calculation. We do not include the future committed increases in the contract value as of the date of the ARR calculation. ARR is not a forecast and the active contracts at the end of a reporting period used in calculating ARR may or may not be extended or renewed by our customers.
⁵ Refer to our reconciliations of U.S. GAAP to non-GAAP net income, diluted earnings per share, operating income, operating expenses and organic impacts included in the attached schedules.
⁶ U.S. GAAP operating expense and tax rate guidance are not provided due to the inherent difficulty in quantifying certain amounts due to a variety of factors including the unpredictability in the movement in foreign currency rates, as well as future charges or reversals outside of the normal course of business.
⁷ Gross Retention: As used herein for AxiomSL and Calypso, ARR in the current period over ARR in the prior year period for existing customers excluding price increases and upsells and excluding new customers.
⁸ Net Retention: As used herein for AxiomSL and Calypso, ARR in the current period over ARR in the prior year period for existing customers including price increases and upsells and excluding new customers.

NON-GAAP INFORMATION

In addition to disclosing results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, Nasdaq also discloses certain non-GAAP results of operations, including, but not limited to, non-GAAP net income attributable to Nasdaq, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, non-GAAP operating income, and non-GAAP operating expenses, that include certain adjustments or exclude certain charges and gains that are described in the reconciliation table of U.S. GAAP to non-GAAP information provided at the end of this release. Management uses this non-GAAP information internally, along with U.S. GAAP information, in evaluating our performance and in making financial and operational decisions. We believe our presentation of these measures provides investors with greater transparency and supplemental data relating to our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we believe the presentation of these measures is useful to investors for period-to-period comparisons of results as the items described below in the reconciliation tables do not reflect ongoing operating performance.

These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, U.S. GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate such measures differently, which reduces their usefulness as a comparative measure. Investors should not rely on any single financial measure when evaluating our business. This information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant as a substitute for our operating results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We recommend investors review the U.S. GAAP financial measures included in this earnings release. When viewed in conjunction with our U.S. GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations, we believe these non-GAAP measures provide greater transparency and a more complete understanding of factors affecting our business than U.S. GAAP measures alone.

We understand that analysts and investors regularly rely on non-GAAP financial measures, such as those noted above, to assess operating performance. We use these measures because they highlight trends more clearly in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on U.S. GAAP financial measures, since these measures eliminate from our results specific financial items that have less bearing on our ongoing operating performance.

Organic revenue and expense growth, organic change and organic impact are non-GAAP measures that reflect adjustments for: (i) the impact of period-over-period changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and (ii) the revenues, expenses and operating income associated with acquisitions and divestitures for the twelve month period following the date of the acquisition or divestiture. Reconciliations of these measures are described within the body of this release or in the reconciliation tables at the end of this release.

Foreign exchange impact: In countries with currencies other than the U.S. dollar, revenues and expenses are translated using monthly average exchange rates. Certain discussions in this release isolate the impact of year-over-year foreign currency fluctuations to better measure the comparability of operating results between periods. Operating results excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations are calculated by translating the current period’s results by the prior period’s exchange rates.

Restructuring programs: In the fourth quarter of 2023, following the closing of the Adenza acquisition, our management approved, committed to and initiated a restructuring program, “Adenza Restructuring” to optimize our efficiencies as a combined organization. In connection with this program, we expect to incur pre-tax charges principally related to employee-related costs, contract terminations, real estate impairments and other related costs. We expect to achieve benefits primarily in the form of expense and revenue synergies. In October 2022, following our September announcement to realign our segments and leadership, we initiated a divisional alignment program with a focus on realizing the full potential of this structure. In connection with the program, we expect to incur pre-tax charges principally related to employee-related costs, consulting, asset impairments and contract terminations over a two-year period. We expect to achieve benefits in the form of both increased customer engagement and operating efficiencies. Costs related to the Adenza restructuring and the divisional alignment programs will be recorded as “restructuring charges” in our consolidated statements of income. We will exclude charges associated with this program for purposes of calculating non-GAAP measures as they are not reflective of ongoing operating performance or comparisons in Nasdaq's performance between periods.

(1) We amortize intangible assets acquired in connection with various acquisitions. Intangible asset amortization expense can vary from period to period due to episodic acquisitions completed, rather than from our ongoing business operations.
(2) We have pursued various strategic initiatives and completed acquisitions and divestitures in recent years which have resulted in expenses which would not have otherwise been incurred. These expenses generally include integration costs, as well as legal, due diligence and other third party transaction costs. The frequency and amount of such expenses vary significantly based on the size, timing and complexity of the transaction. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, and for the three months ended June 30, 2023, these costs primarily relate to the Adenza acquisition. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, these costs were partially offset by a termination payment recognized in the second quarter of 2024 relating to the proposed divestiture of our Nordic power trading and clearing business.
(3) In the fourth quarter of 2023, following the closing of the Adenza acquisition, our management approved, committed to and initiated a restructuring program, “Adenza Restructuring” to optimize our efficiencies as a combined organization. In connection with this program, we expect to incur pre-tax charges principally related to employee-related costs, contract terminations, real estate impairments and other related costs. We expect to achieve benefits primarily in the form of expense and revenue synergies. In October 2022, following our September announcement to realign our segments and leadership, we initiated a divisional alignment program with a focus on realizing the full potential of this structure. In connection with the program, we expect to incur pre-tax charges principally related to employee-related costs, consulting, asset impairments and contract terminations over a two-year period.
(4) During the first quarter of 2023, we initiated a review of our real estate and facility capacity requirements due to our new and evolving work models. As a result, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded impairment charges related to our operating lease assets and leasehold improvements associated with vacating certain leased office space, which are recorded in occupancy expense and depreciation and amortization expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
(5) We exclude our share of the earnings and losses of our equity method investments. This provides a more meaningful analysis of Nasdaq’s ongoing operating performance or comparisons in Nasdaq’s performance between periods.
(6) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, these items primarily included the settlement of a Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority, or SFSA, fine and accruals related to certain legal matters.  For the six months ended June 30, 2023, these items primarily included insurance recoveries related to legal matters.  The fine is recorded in regulatory expense and the accruals and insurance recoveries are recorded in professional and contract services and general, administrative and other expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
(7) For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we recorded a pre-tax loss as a result of settling our U.S. pension plan. The plan was terminated and partially settled in 2023, with final settlement occurring during the first quarter of 2024. The pre-tax loss is recorded in compensation and benefits in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
(8) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, other items primarily include net gains from strategic investments entered into through our corporate venture program, which are included in other income (loss) in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
(9) The non-GAAP adjustment to the income tax provision primarily includes the tax impact of each non-GAAP adjustment.
(10) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the completion of an intra-group transfer of intellectual property assets to U.S. headquarters, resulted in a net tax expense of $33 million.

	(1) Annualized Recurring Revenue (ARR) for a given period is the current annualized value derived from subscription contracts with a defined contract value. This excludes contracts that are not recurring, are one-time in nature, or where the contract value fluctuates based on defined metrics. ARR is currently one of our key performance metrics to assess the health and trajectory of our recurring business. ARR does not have any standardized definition and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. ARR should be viewed independently of revenue and deferred revenue and is not intended to be combined with or to replace either of those items. For AxiomSL and Calypso recurring revenue contracts, the amount included in ARR is consistent with the amount that we invoice the customer during the current period. Additionally, for AxiomSL and Calypso recurring revenue contracts that include annual values that increase over time, we include in ARR only the annualized value of components of the contract that are considered active as of the date of the ARR calculation. We do not include the future committed increases in the contract value as of the date of the ARR calculation.
