Interactive Brokers Sets Revenue Record
Interactive Brokers Group (NASDAQ:IBKR) reported Q2 2025 earnings on July 17, 2025, delivering record net revenues, a 27% year-over-year increase in commissions to $516 million, and a pretax margin of 75%, all amid robust net new account acquisition and heightened trading activity. Key updates include a 170% increase in overnight trading volumes year over year, and ongoing expansion of international access and cryptocurrency capabilities.
Net new accounts increased by 250,000 sequentially, bringing the year-to-date total above 528,000. That exceeded the total number of new accounts added during all of 2023. Client credit balances grew 34% to a record $144 billion, and equity also grew 34% compared to the prior year.
The firm’s ability to accelerate account growth while maintaining a stable cost structure underscores the high operational leverage and competitive moat provided by end-to-end automation.
