CHICAGO, Feb. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Cboe Global
Markets, Inc. (Cboe: CBOE) today reported financial results
for the fourth quarter of 2023 and full year.
"I am pleased to report that Cboe generated another year of
strong revenue growth and financial results in 2023," said
Fredric Tomczyk, Cboe Global Markets
Chief Executive Officer. "Our Derivatives and Data and Access
Solutions categories helped drive the 10% net revenue growth and
13% adjusted diluted EPS growth for the year as both strong secular
and cyclical trends helped boost these business lines. In addition,
we made meaningful progress on our strategic initiatives as a
company and are well-positioned for 2024. This year we plan to
unlock additional value from our global derivatives and securities
network by leveraging our core strengths – our global footprint,
superior technology and product innovation – to help drive
continued strong revenue growth and financial results."
"In the fourth quarter, Cboe generated record net revenues and
strong earnings results to finish a remarkable year," said
Jill Griebenow, Cboe Global Markets
Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Chief
Accounting Officer. "Derivative trends were strong throughout 2023
with net revenues growing 21% for the full year. Data and Access
Solutions delivered solid growth with net revenue up 9% in 2023,
while Cash and Spot Markets declined given a challenging volume
backdrop for global cash equity markets. Following our record year
of revenue generation, we anticipate organic total net revenue
growth2 will average 5-7% in 2024, in line with our
medium-term guidance range. We anticipate Data and Access Solutions
organic net revenue growth2 will average an attractive
7-10%, in line with our medium-term expectations. We look to
balance solid revenue growth expectations with disciplined expense
management, targeting expense growth in the 6-8% range for the
year. 2024 is off to a strong start, and we look forward to
delivering on our objectives to drive durable returns for
shareholders in the year ahead."
*All comparisons are
fourth quarter 2023 compared to the same period in
2022.

Principles") results is included in the attached tables. See
"Non-GAAP Information" in the accompanying financial
tables.

(2)Specific quantifications of
the amounts that would be required to reconcile the company's
organic net revenue growth guidance and adjusted operating expenses
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 cost 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 net revenue growth guidance and adjusted
operating expenses would imply a degree of precision that would be
confusing or misleading to investors for the reasons identified
above.

- Total revenues less cost of revenues (referred to as "net
revenue") of $499.0 million increased
9 percent, compared to $457.1 million
in the prior-year period, reflecting increases in derivatives
markets and data and access solutions net revenue, partially offset
by a decrease in cash and spot markets net revenue.
- Total operating expenses were $205.0
million versus $206.6 million
in the fourth quarter of 2022, a decrease of $1.6 million. Adjusted operating
expenses1 of $191.7
million increased 9 percent compared to $176.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.
This increase was primarily due to higher compensation and benefits
and technology support services, partially offset by a decline in
other expenses, depreciation and amortization, and professional
fees and outside services.
- The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2023 was 26.3
percent as compared with 32.3 percent in the fourth quarter of
2022. The lower effective tax rate in 2023 is primarily due to the
impact the Cboe Digital goodwill impairment had on the effective
tax rate in 2022. The effective tax rate on adjusted
earnings1 was 27.3 percent, a decrease of 0.1 percent
when compared with 27.4 percent in last year's fourth quarter.
- Diluted EPS for the fourth quarter of 2023 increased 33 percent
to $1.98 compared to the fourth
quarter of 2022. Adjusted diluted EPS1 of $2.06 increased 14 percent compared to 2022's
fourth quarter results.

Discussion of Results by Business
Segment1:
Options:
- Options net revenue of $314.5
million was up $41.3 million,
or 15 percent, from the fourth quarter of 2022. Net transaction and
clearing fees2 increased primarily as a result of a 24
percent increase in index options trading volumes versus the fourth
quarter of 2022. Access and capacity fees were 6 percent higher
than fourth quarter 2022.
- Net transaction and clearing fees2 increased
$51.7 million, or 23 percent,
reflecting a 2 percent increase in total options average daily
volume ("ADV") and a 20 percent increase in total options RPC
compared to the fourth quarter 2022. The increase in total options
RPC was due to a mix shift, with index options representing a
higher percentage of total options volume.
- Cboe's Options exchanges had total market share of 33.5 percent
for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to 34.1 percent in the
fourth quarter of 2022.
North American (N.A.) Equities:
- N.A. Equities net revenue of $86.3
million decreased $10.1
million, or 10 percent versus the fourth quarter of 2022,
reflecting lower net transaction and clearing fees2 and
industry market data.
- Net transaction and clearing fees2 decreased by
$9.9 million, or 30 percent, compared
to the fourth quarter of 2022. The decrease was driven by a lower
on-exchange U.S. Equities net capture rate as unfavorable client
mix shift pushed more activity to higher volume tiers. The decrease
was partially offset by a stronger U.S. off-exchange net capture
rate and increased market share in Canadian Equities.
- Cboe's U.S. Equities exchanges had market share of 13.0 percent
for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to 13.1 percent in the
fourth quarter of 2022. Cboe's U.S. Equities off-exchange market
share was 20.6 percent versus 21.0 percent in the fourth quarter of
2022. Canadian Equities market share rose to 15.3 percent as
compared to 13.6 percent in the fourth quarter of 2022 due to
greater adoption by existing clients and new client growth.
Europe and Asia Pacific (APAC):
- Europe and APAC net revenue of
$48.0 million increased by 9 percent
compared to the fourth quarter of 2022, reflecting double-digit
non-transaction revenue growth led by higher market data fees,
access and capacity fees, and other revenue. On a constant currency
basis2, net revenues were $46.1
million, up 4 percent on a year-over-year basis. European
Equities average daily notional value ("ADNV") traded on Cboe
European Equities was €9.0 billion, down 10 percent compared to the
fourth quarter of 2022 given a 6 percent decline in industry market
volumes and lower market share.
- For the fourth quarter of 2023, Cboe European Equities had 23.9
percent market share, down from 24.9 percent in the fourth quarter
of 2022 given higher closing auction activity at listing venues.
Cboe Australia had 20.3 percent market share for the fourth quarter
of 2023, up from 17.2 percent in the fourth quarter of 2022. Cboe
Japan grew market share to 4.0 percent in the fourth quarter of
2023 from 2.9 percent in the fourth quarter of 2022. Cboe European
Equities net capture rate increased 4 percent and Cboe Australia
net capture increased 11 percent when compared to the fourth
quarter of 2022.
Futures:
- Futures net revenue of $32.4
million increased $5.6 million
compared to the fourth quarter of 2022 due to double-digit
increases in net transaction and clearing fees2 and
market data fees.
- Net transaction and clearing fees2 increased
$4.9 million, reflecting a 21 percent
increase in ADV during the quarter.
Global FX:
- Global FX net revenue of $18.9
million increased 12 percent, primarily due to higher net
transaction and clearing fees2. ADNV traded on the Cboe
FX platform was $47.0 billion for the
quarter, up 15 percent compared to last year's fourth quarter, and
net capture rate per one million
dollars traded was $2.60 for
the quarter, down 3 percent compared to $2.69 in the fourth quarter of 2022.
- Cboe FX market share was 21.3 percent for the quarter compared
to 18.4 percent in last year's fourth quarter, which set a
quarterly record for Cboe FX. The record was driven by new client
growth and increased adoption of our diverse set of FX order types
and trading protocols.

2024 Fiscal Year Financial Guidance
Cboe provided guidance for the 2024 fiscal year as noted
below.
- Organic total net revenue growth1 is expected to be
in the range of 5 to 7 percentage points in 2024, in line with
medium-term organic total net revenue1 guidance
expectations of 5 to 7 percentage points.
- Organic net revenue1 from Data and Access Solutions
is expected to increase by approximately 7 to 10 percentage points
in 2024, in line with medium-term guidance expectations of 7 to 10
percentage points.
- Adjusted operating expenses1 in 2024 are expected to
be in the range of $798 to
$808 million. The guidance excludes
the expected amortization of acquired intangible assets of
$93 million; the company reflects the
exclusion of this amount in its non-GAAP reconciliation.
- Depreciation and amortization expense for 2024 is expected to
be in the range of $43 to
$47 million, excluding the expected
amortization of acquired intangible assets.
- Other income (expense) from minority investments is expected to
contribute a $37 to $43 million benefit in 2024.
- The effective tax rate on adjusted earnings1 for the
full year 2024 is expected to be in the range of 28.5 to 30.5
percent. Significant changes in trading volume, expenses, tax laws
or rates and other items could materially impact this
expectation.
- Capital expenditures for 2024 are expected to be in the range
of $51 to $57
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. Acquisitions are considered organic after 12
months of closing. 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 cost 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.

Capital Management

September 30, 2023.
The company paid cash dividends of $58.5
million, or $0.55 per share,
during the fourth quarter of 2023 and utilized $5.8 million to repurchase approximately 34
thousand shares of its common stock under its share repurchase

$384.0 million of availability
remaining under its existing share repurchase authorizations.

"predict," "potential" or "continue," and the negative of these
terms and other comparable terminology. All statements that reflect
our expectations, assumptions or projections about the future other

These forward-looking statements, which are subject to known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us, may include

We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing

and it is not possible to predict all risks and uncertainties, nor
can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the
extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause
actual results to differ materially from those contained in any

Some factors that could cause actual results to differ include:
the loss of our right to exclusively list and trade certain index
options and futures products; economic, political and market
conditions; compliance with legal and regulatory obligations; price
competition and consolidation in our industry; decreases in trading
or clearing volumes, market data fees or a shift in the mix of
products traded on our exchanges; legislative or regulatory changes
or changes in tax regimes; our ability to protect our systems and
communication networks from security vulnerabilities and breaches;
our ability to attract and retain skilled management and other
personnel, including compensation inflation; increasing competition
by foreign and domestic entities; our dependence on and exposure to
risk from third parties; global expansion of operations; factors

the intellectual property rights of others and the costs associated
with protecting our intellectual property rights; our ability to
minimize the risks, including our credit, counterparty investment,
and default risks, associated with operating a European

volume and transaction traffic, including significant increases,
without failure or degradation of performance of our systems;
misconduct by those who use our markets or our products or for whom
we clear transactions; challenges to our use of open source
software code; our ability to meet our compliance obligations,
including managing potential conflicts between our regulatory
responsibilities and our for-profit status; our ability to maintain
BIDS Trading as an independently managed and operated trading
venue, separate from and not integrated with our registered
national securities exchanges; damage to our reputation; the
ability of our compliance and risk management methods to
effectively monitor and manage our risks; restrictions imposed by
our debt obligations and our ability to make payments on or
refinance our debt obligations; our ability to maintain an
investment grade credit rating; impairment of our goodwill,
long-lived assets, investments or intangible assets; the impacts of
pandemics; the accuracy of our estimates and expectations;
litigation risks and other liabilities; and operating a digital
asset business and clearinghouse, including the expected benefits
of our Cboe Digital acquisition, cybercrime, changes in digital
asset regulation, losses due to digital asset custody, and
fluctuations in digital asset prices. More detailed information
about factors that may affect our actual results to differ may be
found in our filings with the SEC, including in our Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2022 and other filings made from time to time with the
SEC.

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, and adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income
allocated to common stockholders and adjusted diluted earnings per
share, effective tax rate on adjusted earnings, adjusted cash, net
revenues in constant currency, EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin.
Management believes that the non-GAAP financial measures
presented in this press release 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, impairment charges, 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.

the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively),
on the condensed consolidated statements of income. The deferred
compensation plans' expenses are not excluded from "adjusted
operating expenses" and do not have an impact on "Income before
income taxes."
|
(14) Adjusted
operating margin represents adjusted operating income divided by
adjusted revenue less cost of revenue.
|
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, gain on
investment, loan forgiveness, investment establishment costs,
impairment of goodwill, impairment of investment, and income from
investment. 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.
