INTRODUCTORY NOTE
The financial statements and other disclosures contained in this report include those of Tradeweb Markets Inc., which is the registrant, and those of its consolidating subsidiaries, including Tradeweb Markets LLC, which became the principal operating subsidiary of Tradeweb Markets Inc. on April 4, 2019 in a series of reorganization transactions (the “Reorganization Transactions”) that were completed in connection with Tradeweb Markets Inc.’s initial public offering (the “IPO”), which closed on April 8, 2019.
As a result of the Reorganization Transactions completed in connection with the IPO, Tradeweb Markets Inc. became a holding company whose only material assets consist of its equity interest in Tradeweb Markets LLC and related deferred tax assets. As the sole manager of Tradeweb Markets LLC, Tradeweb Markets Inc. operates and controls all of the business and affairs of Tradeweb Markets LLC and, through Tradeweb Markets LLC and its subsidiaries, conducts its business. As a result of this control, and because Tradeweb Markets Inc. has a substantial financial interest in Tradeweb Markets LLC, Tradeweb Markets Inc. consolidates the financial results of Tradeweb Markets LLC and its subsidiaries.
As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context otherwise requires, references to:
• “We,” “us,” “our,” the “Company,” “Tradeweb” and similar references refer: (i) on or prior to the completion of the Reorganization Transactions to Tradeweb Markets LLC, which we refer to as “TWM LLC,” and, unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, all of its subsidiaries and any predecessor entities, and (ii) following the completion of the Reorganization Transactions to Tradeweb Markets Inc., and, unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, its subsidiaries, including TWM LLC and all of its subsidiaries, and any predecessor entities.
• “Bank Stockholders ” refer collectively to entities affiliated with the following clients: Barclays Capital Inc., BofA Securities, Inc. (a subsidiary of Bank of America Corporation), Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, RBS Securities Inc., UBS Securities LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, which, prior to the completion of the IPO, collectively held a 46% ownership interest in Tradeweb. Subsequent to August 2022, there were no LLC Interests (as defined below) held by Bank Stockholders.
• “Continuing LLC Owners” refer collectively to (i) those Original LLC Owners (as defined below), including an indirect subsidiary of Refinitiv (as defined below), certain of the Bank Stockholders and members of management, that continued to own LLC Interests after the completion of the IPO and Reorganization Transactions and that received shares of our Class C common stock, shares of our Class D common stock or a combination of both, as the case may be, in connection with the completion of the Reorganization Transactions, (ii) any subsequent transferee of any Original LLC Owner that has executed a joinder agreement to TWM LLC’s limited liability company agreement (the “TWM LLC Agreement”) and (iii) solely with respect to the Tax Receivable Agreement (as defined below), (x) those Original LLC Owners, including certain of the Bank Stockholders, that disposed of all of their LLC Interests for cash in connection with the IPO and (y) any party that has executed a joinder agreement to the Tax Receivable Agreement in accordance with the Tax Receivable Agreement.
• “Investor Group” refer to certain investment funds affiliated with The Blackstone Group Inc. (f/k/a The Blackstone Group L.P.), an affiliate of Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, an affiliate of GIC Special Investments Pte. Ltd. and certain co-investors, which prior to the LSEG Transaction (as defined below) collectively held indirectly a 55% ownership interest in Refinitiv.
• “LLC Interests” refer to the single class of common mem bership interests of TWM LLC. LLC Interests, other than those held directly or indirectly by Tradeweb Markets Inc., are redeemable or exchangeable in accordance with the TWM LLC Agreement for shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock, as the case may be, on a one-for-one basis. References to LLC Interests held by Tradeweb Markets Inc. and comparable terminology refer to LLC Interests held by Tradeweb Markets Inc. directly as well as indirectly through direct, wholly-owned subsidiaries of Tradeweb Markets Inc. (which are holding companies with no independent operations).
• “LSEG Transaction” refer to the acquisition of the Refinitiv business by LSEG (as defined below), in an all share transaction, which closed on January 29, 2021. The Refinitiv business was rebranded by LSEG as LSEG Data & Analytics during the fourth quarter of 2023.
• “LSEG” refer to London Stock Exchange Group plc, and unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, all of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including Refinitiv.

Numerical figures included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been subject to rounding adjustments. Accordingly, numerical figures shown as totals in various tables may not be arithmetic aggregations of the figures that precede them. In addition, we round certain percentages presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to the nearest whole number. As a result, figures expressed as percentages in the text may not total 100% or, when aggregated, may not be the arithmetic aggregation of the percentages that precede them.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “non-GAAP financial measures,” which are financial measures that are not calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has adopted rules to regulate the use of non-GAAP financial measures in filings with the SEC and in other public disclosures. These rules govern the manner in which non-GAAP financial measures are publicly presented and require, among other things:
• a presentation with equal or greater prominence of the most comparable financial measure or measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP; and
• a statement disclosing the purposes for which the registrant’s management uses the non-GAAP financial measure.
Specifically, we make use of the non-GAAP financial measures “Free Cash Flow,” “Adjusted EBITDA,” “Adjusted EBITDA margin,” “Adjusted EBIT,” “Adjusted EBIT margin,” “Adjusted Net Income” and “Adjusted Diluted EPS,” as well as the change in revenue, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted EBIT margin on a constant currency basis, in evaluating our historical results and future prospects. For the definition of Free Cash Flow and a reconciliation to cash flow from operating activities, its most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP, see Part I, Item 2. – “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Non - GAAP Financial Measures.” For the definitions of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted Net Income and reconciliations to net income and net income attributable to Tradeweb Markets Inc., as applicable, their most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP, see Part I, Item 2. – “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” For the definition of constant currency revenue change, see Part I, Item 2. – “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Results of Operations.” Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted EBIT margin are defined as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBIT, respectively, divided by revenue for the applicable period. For the definition of constant currency change in Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted EBIT margin, see Part I, Item 2. – “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Adjusted Diluted EPS is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by the diluted weighted average number of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock outstanding for the applicable period (including the effect of potentially dilutive securities determined using the treasury stock method), plus the weighted average number of other participating securities reflected in earnings per share using the two-class method, plus the assumed full exchange of all outstanding LLC Interests held by non-controlling interests for shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock.
We present Free Cash Flow because we believe it is a useful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors about 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.

Table of Contents

We present Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBIT margin 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 program is based in part on components of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin.
We use constant currency measures as supplemental metrics to evaluate our underlying performance between periods by removing the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. We believe that providing certain percentage changes on a constant currency basis provides useful comparisons of our performance and trends between periods.
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 adjustments described in the definition of Adjusted Net Income helps 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.
Free Cash Flow, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and constant currency measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider such measures either in isolation or as substitutes for analyzing our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include the following:
• Free Cash Flow, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS do not reflect every expenditure, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
• Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS do not reflect changes in our working capital needs;
• Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBIT do not reflect any interest income or expense, or the amounts necessary to service interest or principal payments on any debt obligations;
• Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBIT do not reflect income tax expense, which is a necessary element of our costs and ability to operate;
• although depreciation and amortization are eliminated in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, and the depreciation and amortization related to acquisitions and the Refinitiv Transaction are eliminated in the calculation of Adjusted EBIT, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBIT do not reflect any costs of such replacements;
• Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS do not reflect the non-cash component of certain employee stock-based compensation expense and associated payroll taxes;
• Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS do not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative, on a recurring basis, of our ongoing operations;
• constant currency measures do not reflect the impact of foreign currency fluctuations; and
• other companies in our industry may calculate Free Cash Flow, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, constant currency measures or similarly titled measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Free Cash Flow, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and constant currency measures only as supplemental information.

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 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q 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 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. 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 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, they may not be predictive of events, results or developments in future periods.
Any forward-looking statement that we make in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q speaks only as of the date of such statement.

Tradeweb Markets Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1.     Organization
Tradeweb Markets Inc. (the “Corporation”) was incorporated as a Delaware corporation on November 7, 2018 to carry on the business of Tradeweb Markets LLC (“TWM LLC”) following the completion of a series of reorganization transactions on April 4, 2019 (the “Reorganization Transactions”), in connection with Tradeweb Markets Inc.’s initial public offering (the “IPO”), which closed on April 8, 2019. Following the Reorganization Transactions, Refinitiv (as defined below) owned an indirect majority ownership interest in the Company (as defined below).
On January 29, 2021, London Stock Exchange Group plc (“LSEG”) completed its acquisition of the Refinitiv business from a consortium, including certain investment funds affiliated with The Blackstone Group Inc. (f/k/a The Blackstone Group L.P.) (“Blackstone”) as well as Thomson Reuters Corporation (“TR”), in an all share transaction (the “LSEG Transaction”).
In connection with the LSEG Transaction, the Corporation became a consolidating subsidiary of LSEG. Prior to the LSEG Transaction, the Corporation was a consolidating subsidiary of BCP York Holdings (“BCP”), a company owned by certain investment funds affiliated with Blackstone, through BCP’s previous majority ownership interest in Refinitiv. As used herein, “Refinitiv,” prior to the LSEG Transaction, means Refinitiv Holdings Limited, and unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, all of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, and subsequent to the LSEG Transaction, refers to Refinitiv Parent Limited, and unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, all of its subsidiaries. Refinitiv owns substantially all of the former financial and risk business of Thomson Reuters (as defined below), including, prior to and following the completion of the Reorganization Transactions, an indirect majority ownership interest in the Company. The Refinitiv business was rebranded by LSEG as LSEG Data & Analytics during the fourth quarter of 2023.
The Corporation is a holding company whose principal asset is LLC Interests (as defined below) of TWM LLC. As the sole manager of TWM LLC, the Corporation operates and controls all of the business and affairs of TWM LLC and, through TWM LLC and its subsidiaries, conducts the Corporation’s business. As a result of this control, and because the Corporation has a substantial financial interest in TWM LLC, the Corporation consolidates the financial results of TWM LLC and reports a non-controlling interest in the Corporation’s condensed consolidated financial statements. As of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, Tradeweb Markets Inc. owned 90.2 % of TWM LLC and the non-controlling interest holders owned the remaining 9.8 % of TWM LLC. References to LLC Interests held by Tradeweb Markets Inc. and comparable terminology refer to LLC Interests held by Tradeweb Markets Inc. directly as well as indirectly through direct, wholly-owned subsidiaries of Tradeweb Markets Inc. (which are holding companies with no independent operations).
Unless the context otherwise requires, references to the “Company” refer to Tradeweb Markets Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, including TWM LLC, following the completion of the Reorganization Transactions, and TWM LLC and its consolidated subsidiaries prior to the completion of the Reorganization Transactions.
A majority interest of Refinitiv (formerly the Thomson Reuters Financial & Risk Business) was acquired by BCP on October 1, 2018 (the “Refinitiv Transaction”) from TR. The Refinitiv Transaction resulted in a new basis of accounting for certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities beginning on October 1, 2018. See Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies for a description of pushdown accounting applied as a result of the Refinitiv Transaction.
In connection with the Reorganization Transactions, TWM LLC’s limited liability company agreement (the “TWM LLC Agreement”) was amended and restated to, among other things, (i) provide for a new single class of common membership interests in TWM LLC (the “LLC Interests”), (ii) exchange all of the then existing membership interests in TWM LLC for LLC Interests and (iii) appoint the Corporation as the sole manager of TWM LLC. LLC Interests, other than those held by the Corporation, are redeemable or exchangeable in accordance with the TWM LLC Agreement for shares of Class A common stock, par value $ 0.00001 per share, of the Corporation (the “Class A common stock”) or Class B common stock, par value $ 0.00001 per share, of the Corporation (the “Class B common stock”), as the case may be, on a one -for-one basis.

Table of Contents

As used herein, references to “Continuing LLC Owners” refer collectively to (i) those owners of TWM LLC prior to the Reorganization Transactions (the “Original LLC Owners”), including an indirect subsidiary of Refinitiv, certain investment and commercial banks (collectively, the “Bank Stockholders”), and members of management, that continued to own LLC Interests after the completion of the IPO and Reorganization Transactions and that received shares of Class C common stock, par value $ 0.00001 per share, of the Corporation (the “Class C common stock”), shares of Class D common stock, par value $ 0.00001 per share, of the Corporation (the “Class D common stock”) or a combination of both, as the case may be, in connection with the completion of the Reorganization Transactions, (ii) any subsequent transferee of any Original LLC Owner that has executed a joinder agreement to the TWM LLC Agreement and (iii) solely with respect to the Tax Receivable Agreement (as defined in Note 6 – Tax Receivable Agreement), (x) those Original LLC Owners, including certain of the Bank Stockholders, that disposed of all of their LLC Interests for cash in connection with the IPO and (y) any party that has executed a joinder agreement to the Tax Receivable Agreement in accordance with the Tax Receivable Agreement.

2.     Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. As discussed in Note 1 – Organization, as a result of the Reorganization Transactions, Tradeweb Markets Inc. consolidates TWM LLC and its subsidiaries and TWM LLC is considered to be the predecessor to Tradeweb Markets Inc. for financial reporting purposes. Tradeweb Markets Inc. had no business transactions or activities and no substantial assets or liabilities prior to the Reorganization Transactions. The condensed consolidated financial statements represent the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and report a non-controlling interest related to the LLC Interests held by Continuing LLC Owners.
These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The consolidated financial information as of December 31, 2025 has been derived from audited financial statements not included herein. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) with respect to interim financial reporting and Form 10-Q. In accordance with such rules and regulations, certain disclosures that are normally included in annual financial statements have been omitted. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and the difference may be material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Business Combinations
Business combinations are accounted for under the purchase method of accounting pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) . The total cost of an acquisition is allocated to the underlying net assets based on their respective estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is determined based on assumptions that reasonable market participants would use in the principal (or most advantageous) market for the asset or liability. Determining the fair value of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed is judgmental in nature and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including assumptions with respect to future cash flows, discount rates, growth rates, customer attrition rates and asset lives.
Transaction costs incurred to effect a business combination are expensed as incurred and are included as a component of professional fees or general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income .

Pushdown Accounting
In connection with the Refinitiv Transaction, a majority interest of Refinitiv was acquired by BCP on October 1, 2018 from TR. The Refinitiv Transaction was accounted for by Refinitiv in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting pursuant to ASC 805 , and pushdown accounting was applied to Refinitiv to record the fair value of the assets and liabilities of Refinitiv as of October 1, 2018, the date of the Refinitiv Transaction. The Company, as a consolidating subsidiary of Refinitiv, also accounted for the Refinitiv Transaction using pushdown accounting which resulted in a new fair value basis of accounting for certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities beginning on October 1, 2018. Under the pushdown accounting applied, the excess of the fair value of the Company above the fair value accounting basis of the net assets and liabilities of the Company as of October 1, 2018 was recorded as goodwill. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed was determined based on assumptions that reasonable market participants would use in the principal (or most advantageous) market for the asset or liability. The adjusted valuations primarily affected the values of the Company’s long-lived and indefinite-lived intangible assets, including software development costs.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consists of cash and highly liquid investments with remaining maturities at the time of purchase of three months or less.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company continually monitors collections and payments from its clients and maintains an allowance for credit losses. The allowance for credit losses is based on an estimate of the amount of potential credit losses in existing accounts receivable, as determined from a review of aging schedules, past due balances, historical collection experience and other specific account data. An analysis of the financial condition of the Company’s counterparties is also performed. When estimating credit losses on current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from revenue from contracts with customers, the Company has elected the practical expedient to assume that current conditions as of the statement of financial condition date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. Additions to the allowance for credit losses relating to client receivables are charged to credit loss expense, included as a component of general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Aged balances that are determined to be uncollectible are written off against the allowance for credit losses.
An allowance for credit losses is also recognized for any credit impairment of the Company’s digital asset loan receivable and available-for-sale debt securities , with the credit loss included as a component of other income (loss), net in the condensed consolidated statements of income. See Note 11 – Credit Risk for additional information.
Receivable from and Payable to Brokers and Dealers and Clearing Organizations
Receivable from and payable to brokers and dealers and clearing organizations consists of proceeds from wholesale transactions executed on the Company’s platform which failed to settle due to the inability of a transaction party to deliver or receive the transacted security. These securities transactions are generally collateralized by those securities. Until the failed transaction settles, a receivable from (and a matching payable to) brokers and dealers and clearing organizations is recognized for the proceeds from the unsettled transaction.
Deposits with Clearing Organizations
Deposits with clearing organizations are comprised of cash deposits.
Furniture, Equipment, Purchased Software and Leasehold Improvements
Furniture, equipment, purchased software and leasehold improvements are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation for furniture, equipment and purchased software is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from three to seven years . Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the estimated useful lives of the leasehold improvements or the remaining term of the lease for office space.
Furniture, equipment, purchased software and leasehold improvements are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances suggest that an asset’s carrying value may not be fully recoverable.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, accumulated depreciation related to furniture, equipment, purchased software and leasehold improvements totaled $ 101.7  million and $ 96.7  million, respectively. Depreciation expense for furniture, equipment, purchased software and leasehold improvements was $ 7.2 million and $ 6.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Software Development Costs
The Company capitalizes costs associated with the development of internal use software at the point at which the conceptual formulation, design and testing of possible software project alternatives have been completed. The Company capitalizes employee compensation and related benefits and third party consulting costs incurred during the application development stage which directly contribute to such development. Such costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over three years . Software development costs acquired as part of the ICD Acquisition are amortized over eight years , software development costs acquired as part of the r8fin Acquisition are amortized over seven years and software development costs acquired as part of the Yieldbroker Acquisition and NFI Acquisition were both amortized over one year . Costs capitalized as part of the Refinitiv Transaction pushdown accounting allocation are amortized over nine years . The Company reviews the amounts capitalized for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or that their useful lives are shorter than originally expected. Non-capitalized software costs and routine maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, accumulated amortization related to software development costs totaled $ 411.5  million and $ 387.1  million, respectively. Amortization expense for software development costs was $ 24.4  million and $ 22.0  million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Goodwill
Goodwill includes the excess of the fair value of the Company above the fair value accounting basis of the net assets and liabilities of the Company as previously applied under pushdown accounting in connection with the Refinitiv Transaction. Goodwill also includes the cost of acquired companies in excess of the fair value of identifiable net assets at the acquisition date, including the ICD Acquisition, the r8fin Acquisition, the Yieldbroker Acquisition and the NFI Acquisition, which were all accounted for as business combinations. Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually on October 1st and between annual tests, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable. Goodwill is tested at the reporting unit level, which is defined as an operating segment or one level below the operating segment. The Company consists of one reporting unit for goodwill impairment testing purposes. An impairment loss is recognized if the estimated fair value of a reporting unit is less than its net book value. Such loss is calculated as the difference between the estimated fair value of goodwill and its carrying value.
Goodwill was last tested for impairment on October 1, 2025 and no impairment of goodwill was identified.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets with a finite life are amortized over the estimated lives, ranging from four to fifteen years . These intangible assets subject to amortization are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances suggest that an asset’s or asset group’s carrying value may not be fully recoverable. Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life are tested for impairment at least annually. An impairment loss is recognized if the sum of the estimated discounted cash flows relating to the asset or asset group is less than the corresponding book value.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, accumulated amortization related to intangible assets totaled $ 828.8  million and $ 799.7  million, respectively. Amortization expense for definite-lived intangible assets was $ 29.1 million and $ 34.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Digital Assets and Other Investments at Fair Value
Investments in Digital Assets - Canton Coins
The Company performs services as a Super Validator and Validator on the Global Synchronizer, the Canton Network’s decentralized interoperability infrastructure. The Canton Network is a public-permissioned blockchain network designed with privacy and controls to facilitate the exchange of regulated financial assets. The Canton Network’s Global Synchronizer includes a utility token, which is a digital asset called the Canton Coin. As a Super Validator and Validator on the network, the Company verifies network transactions and contributes to the consensus mechanism of the network. For these validation services, the Company earns Canton Coins and then generally holds the Canton Coins on its balance sheet for investment purposes and may use Canton Coins to pay fees associated with its own Canton Network activity. The cost basis of the Canton Coins received throughout each day is initially recorded at its fair value on the date of receipt as a component of digital assets and other investments at fair value on the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. The Canton Coins are then remeasured to fair market value at the end of each reporting period through an adjustment to unrealized gain/(loss), included as a component of other income (loss), net on the condensed consolidated statements of income. The Company employs the first-in-first-out (“FIFO”) method to determine the cost basis of its Canton Coins for the computation of gains and losses on any disposal or sale of Canton Coins. Realized gain/(loss) on any disposal or sale of Canton Coins are also included as a component of other income (loss), net in the condensed consolidated statements of income.
Investments in Available-for-Sale Debt Securities
Investments in available-for-sale debt securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains or losses excluded from earnings and reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition until realized. On a quarterly basis, the Company assesses whether an impairment loss on its available-for-sale debt securities has occurred due to declines in fair value or other market conditions. When the amortized cost basis of an available-for-sale debt security exceeds its fair value, the security is deemed to be impaired. The portion of an impairment related to credit losses is determined by comparing the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security with the amortized cost basis of the security and is recorded as a charge in the condensed consolidated statements of income. The remainder of an impairment is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss if the Company does not intend to sell the security and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell the security prior to recovery. Investments in available-for-sale debt securities are included as a component of digital assets and other investments at fair value on the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition.
Investments in Equity Securities with a Readily Determinable Fair Value
Minority investments in equity securities with a readily determinable fair value that are not accounted for under the equity method are remeasured to fair market value at the end of each reporting period through an adjustment to unrealized gain/(loss) included as a component of other income (loss), net on the condensed consolidated statements of income. These investments are included as a component of digital assets and other investments at fair value on the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition.
Other Equity Investments
The Company generally accounts for equity investments under the equity method of accounting when it has significant influence over the entity’s operating and financial policies but does not have a controlling financial interest. For equity investments in corporations, the equity method applies only to investments in common stock or in-substance common stock.
For equity method investments, the Company records its estimated pro rata share of earnings or losses each reporting period as a component of other income (loss) in the condensed consolidated statements of income and records any dividends as a reduction of the investment balance. Equity method investments are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment may not be recoverable. If the estimated fair value of the investment is less than the carrying amount and management considers the decline in value to be other than temporary, the excess of the carrying amount over the estimated fair value is recognized in net income as an impairment in the period the impairment occurs.
For minority investments in equity securities without a readily determinable fair value that are not accounted for under the equity method, the Company applies the measurement alternative. Under the measurement alternative, these investments are measured at cost, less impairment, plus or minus observable price changes (in orderly transactions) of an identical or similar investment of the same issuer. On a quarterly basis, the Company performs a qualitative assessment to evaluate whether the equity investment is impaired and if the Company determines that the equity investment is impaired on the basis of a qualitative assessment, the Company will recognize an impairment loss in net income equal to the amount by which the investment’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value.

Table of Contents

Equity method investments and investments in equity securities without a readily determinable fair value are included as a component of other assets on the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition.
Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase
From time to time, the Company sells securities under agreements to repurchase in order to facilitate the clearance of securities. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are treated as collateralized financings and are presented in the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition at the amounts of cash received. Receivables and payables arising from these agreements are not offset in the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition.
Leases
At lease commencement, a right-of-use asset and a lease liability are recognized for all leases with an initial term in excess of 12 months based on the initial present value of the fixed lease payments over the lease term. The lease right-of-use asset also reflects the present value of any initial direct costs, prepaid lease payments and lease incentives. The Company’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit discount rate. Therefore, management estimates the Company’s incremental borrowing rate used to discount the lease payments based on the information available at lease commencement. The Company includes the term covered by an option to extend a lease when the option is reasonably certain to be exercised. The Company has elected not to separate non-lease components from lease components for all leases. Significant assumptions and judgments in calculating the lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities include the determination of the applicable borrowing rate for each lease. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and included as a component of occupancy expense in the condensed consolidated statements of income.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s classification of revenues in the condensed consolidated statements of income primarily represents revenues from contracts with customers disaggregated by type of revenue. See Note 4 – Revenue for additional details regarding revenue types and the Company’s policies regarding revenue recognition.
Translation of Foreign Currency and Foreign Exchange Derivative Contracts
Revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies are recorded in the appropriate functional currency for the legal entity at the rate of exchange prevailing at the transaction date. Monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in non-functional currencies are then remeasured at the end of each reporting period at the exchange rate prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Foreign currency remeasurement gains or losses on monetary assets and liabilities in nonfunctional currencies are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of income within general and administrative expenses. The realized and unrealized gains/losses totaled a loss of $ 1.5  million and a gain of $ 0.9  million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Since the condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, the Company also translates all non-U.S. dollar functional currency revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars. All non-U.S. dollar functional currency revenue and expense amounts are translated into U.S. dollars monthly at the average exchange rate for the month. All non-U.S. dollar functional currency assets and liabilities are translated at the rate prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Gains or losses on translation in the financial statements, when the functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar, are included as a component of other comprehensive income.
The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate its U.S. dollar and British pound sterling versus euro exposure, generally with a duration of less than 12 months. The Company’s foreign exchange derivative contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. Changes in the fair value during the period of foreign currency forward contracts, which were entered into for foreign exchange risk management purposes relating to operating activities, are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of income within general and administrative expenses and related cash flows are included in cash flows from operating activities. The Company does not use derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Realized and unrealized gains/losses on foreign currency forward contracts totaled a gain of $ 5.5  million and a loss of $ 6.3  million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the counterparty o n each of the foreign exchange derivative contracts was an affiliate of LSEG and therefore the corresponding assets or liabilities on such contracts were included in receivable and due from related parties or payable and due to related parties, respectively, on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. See Note 10 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Other Assets for additional details on the Company ’ s derivative instruments.

Income Tax
The Corporation is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes with respect to its taxable income, including its allocable share of any taxable income of TWM LLC, and is taxed at prevailing corporate tax rates. TWM LLC is a multiple member limited liability company taxed as a partnership and accordingly any taxable income generated by TWM LLC is passed through to and included in the taxable income of its members, including the Corporation. Income taxes also include unincorporated business taxes on income earned or losses incurred for conducting business in certain state and local jurisdictions, income taxes on income earned or losses incurred in foreign jurisdictions on certain operations and federal and state income taxes on income earned or losses incurred, both current and deferred, on subsidiaries that are taxed as corporations for U.S. tax purposes.
The Company records deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company measures deferred taxes using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when such temporary differences are expected to reverse. The Company evaluates the need for valuation allowances based on the weight of positive and negative evidence. The Company records valuation allowances wherever management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will not be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the foreseeable future.
The Company records uncertain tax positions on the basis of a two-step process whereby (i) the Company determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (ii) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the Company recognizes the amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to income taxes within the provision for income taxes in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Accrued interest and penalties are included within accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities in the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition.
The Company has elected to treat taxes due on future U.S. inclusions in taxable income under the global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) provision of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 as a current period expense when incurred.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the U.S. The OBBBA contains several changes to corporate taxation including modifications to capitalization of research and development expenses, limitations on deductions for interest expense and accelerated fixed asset depreciation. The OBBBA did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of financial condition as of March 31, 2026 or December 31, 2025 or the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income or cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The Company will continue to evaluate the implications of this legislation on future periods.
On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) was signed into law. The IRA established a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax (“CAMT”) effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2022, and imposed a 1% excise tax on the repurchase after December 31, 2022 of stock by publicly traded U.S. corporations. The 1% excise tax did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of financial condition as of March 31, 2026 or December 31, 2025 or the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income or cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2026 or 2025. The Company is subject to the current 15% CAMT, however, it did not have an impact on the Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 or 2025.
On October 8, 2021, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development announced an accord endorsing and providing an implementation plan focused on global profit allocation, and implementing a global minimum tax rate of at least 15% for large multinational corporations on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis, known as the “Two Pillar Plan.” On December 15, 2022, the European Council formally adopted a European Union directive on the implementation of the plan which became effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2024. The Company falls under the provisions of the Two Pillar Plan and related tax impacts per local country adoption as it is a consolidating subsidiary of LSEG. The Two Pillar Plan did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of financial condition as of March 31, 2026 or December 31, 2025 or the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income or cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2026 or 2025. The Company continues to monitor developments related to the G7’s discussions on global tax reform and is awaiting legislative updates.

Stock-Based Compensation
The stock-based payments received by the employees of the Company are accounted for as equity awards. The Company measures and recognizes the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments based on their estimated fair values measured as of the grant date. These costs are recognized as an expense over the requisite service period, with an offsetting increase to additional paid-in capital. The grant-date fair value of stock-based awards that do not require future service (i.e., vested awards) are expensed immediately.
The grant-date fair value of stock-based awards with only time-based vesting requirements and stock-based awards that also vest based on the financial performance of the Company are determined based on the price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the grant date. For performance-based restricted stock units that vest based on the financial performance of the Company, the number of shares included in the stock-based compensation expense calculation each period is based on management’s estimate of the probable number of shares expected to be issued at settlement.
For performance-based restricted stock units that vest based on market conditions, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense based on the estimated grant-date fair value of the awards computed with the assistance of a valuation specialist using a Monte Carlo simulation on a binomial model. The significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the performance-based restricted stock units that vest based on market conditions are years of maturity, annualized volatility and the risk-free interest rate. The maturity period represents the period of time that the award granted was modeled into the future, the risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of measurement corresponding with the maturity period of the award and the expected volatility is based upon historical volatility of the Company’s Class A common stock. If the service condition applicable for such award is met, expense is recognized based on the grant-date fair value of the award even if the market condition is not achieved.
Forfeitures of stock-based awards related to service conditions not being met are recognized as they occur.
Prior to the IPO, the Company awarded options to management and other employees (collectively, the “Special Option Award”) under the Amended and Restated Tradeweb Markets Inc. Option Plan (the “Option Plan”). The non-cash stock-based compensation expense associated with the Special Option Award was expensed beginning in the second quarter of 2019 and ended during the first quarter of 2024 when all previously awarded options were fully vested.
Earnings Per Share
Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed in accordance with the two-class method as unvested or unsettled vested stock awards issued to certain retired or terminated employees are entitled to non-forfeitable dividend equivalent rights and are considered participating securities prior to being issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that treats a participating security as having rights to earnings that otherwise would have been available to common stockholders. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income attributable to the Company’s outstanding shares of Class A and Class B common stock by the weighted-average number of the Company’s shares outstanding during the period. For purposes of computing diluted earnings per share, the weighted-average number of the Company’s shares reflects the dilutive effect that could occur if all potentially dilutive securities were converted into or exchanged or exercised for the Company’s Class A or Class B common stock.
The dilutive effect of stock options and other stock - based payment awards is calculated using the treasury stock method, which assumes the proceeds from the exercise of these instruments are used to purchase shares of Class A common stock at the average market price for the period. The dilutive effect of LLC Interests held by non-controlling interests is evaluated under the if-converted method, where the securities are assumed to be converted at the beginning of the period, and the resulting common shares are included in the denominator of the diluted earnings per share calculation for the entire period presented. Performance-based stock awards are considered contingently issuable shares and their dilutive effect is included in the denominator of the diluted earnings per share calculation for the entire period, if those shares would be issuable as of the end of the reporting period, assuming the end of the reporting period was also the end of the contingency period.
Shares of Class C and Class D common stock do not have economic rights in Tradeweb Markets Inc. and, therefore, are not included in the calculation of basic earnings per share.

Fair Value Measurement
Fair value represents the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (the exit price). Financial instruments that the Company owns (long positions) are marked to bid prices, and instruments that the Company has sold, but not yet purchased (short positions) are marked to offer prices. Fair value measurements do not include transaction costs.
The fair value hierarchy under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”) , prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described below.
Basis of Fair Value Measurement
An asset or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
• Level 1 : Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
• Level 2 : Quoted prices in markets that are not considered to be active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly;
• Level 3 : Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements (“ASU 2025-11”), which clarifies interim disclosure requirements and the applicability of Topic 270. The amendments in this ASU result in a comprehensive list of interim disclosures that are required by GAAP and include a disclosure principle that requires entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that had a material impact on the entity. ASU 2025-11 also clarifies the types of interim reporting and the form and content of interim financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. ASU 2025-11 is effective for the Company’s interim reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2028. The guidance may be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2025-11 on its interim consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-07, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Derivatives Scope Refinements and Scope Clarification for Share-Based Noncash Consideration from a Customer in a Revenue Contract (“ASU 2025-07”). ASU 2025-07 adds a new scope exception to derivative accounting guidance for non-exchange traded contracts with underlyings based on operations or activities specific to one of the parties to the contract. However, this scope exception does not apply to (1) variables based on a market rate, market price or market index, (2) variables based on the price or performance (including default) of a financial asset or financial liability of one of the parties to the contract, (3) contracts (or features) involving the issuer’s own equity and (4) call and put options on debt instruments. The ASU also clarifies that an entity should apply the guidance from revenue from contracts with customers, including the non-cash consideration guidance therein, to a contract with share-based non-cash consideration from a customer for the transfer of goods or services unless and until the entity’s right to receive or retain the share-based non-cash consideration is unconditional. ASU 2025-07 is effective for the Company’s interim and annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2027. The guidance may be applied on a prospective or modified retrospective basis and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2025-07 on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (“ASU 2025-06”), which amends certain aspects of the accounting for and disclosure of internal-use software development costs. To address that software is not always developed in a linear manner, ASU 2025-06 removes the previous references to project development stages and enhances the guidance on how to evaluate whether the probable-to-complete recognition threshold has been met. ASU 2025-06 is effective for the Company’s interim and annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2028. The guidance may be applied on a prospective, retrospective or modified prospective transition basis and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2025-06 on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets (“ASU 2025-05”). ASU 2025-05 introduces a practical expedient for measuring expected credit losses that permits entities to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from revenue from contracts with customers. On January 1, 2026, the Company adopted ASU 2025-05 on a prospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2025-05 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 requires the disaggregation of certain costs and expenses in the notes to the financial statements to provide enhanced transparency into the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. ASU 2024-03 is effective for the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2027 and for interim periods beginning in 2028. The guidance may be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2024-03 on its consolidated financial statements.

3.     Restricted Cash
Cash has been segregated in a special reserve bank account for the benefit of brokers and dealers under SEC Rule 15c3-3. The Company computes the proprietary accounts of broker-dealers (“PAB”) reserve, which requires the Company to maintain minimum segregated cash in the amount of excess total credits per the reserve computation. As of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, cash in the amount of $ 1.0 million, has been segregated in the PAB reserve account, exceeding the requirements pursuant to SEC Rule 15c3-3.

4.     Revenue
Revenue Recognition
The Company enters into contracts with its clients to provide a stand-ready connection to its electronic marketplaces, which facilitates the execution of trades by its clients. The access to the Company’s electronic marketplaces includes market data, continuous pricing data refreshes and the processing and reporting of trades thereon, which are highly interrelated services. The stand-ready connection to the electronic marketplaces is considered a single performance obligation satisfied over time as the client simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit from the Company’s performance as access is provided. This performance obligation constitutes a series of services that are substantially the same in nature and are provided over time using the same measure of progress.
For its services, the Company may earn subscription fees for granting access to its electronic marketplaces. Subscription fees, which are generally fixed fees, are recognized as revenue on a monthly basis, in the period that access is provided. The frequency of subscription fee billings varies from monthly to annually, depending on contract terms.
The Company also earns transaction fees and/or commissions from transactions executed on the Company’s electronic marketplaces, including the basis point commissions earned on the monthly average daily balance (“ADB”) of money market fund investments made through its ICD Portal, and commission revenue from its electronic and voice brokerage services on a riskless principal basis. Riskless principal revenues are derived on matched principal transactions where revenues are earned on the spread between the buy and sell price of the transacted product.
Transaction fees and commissions are generated both on a variable and fixed price basis and vary by geographic region, product type and trade size. Fixed monthly transaction fees and commissions, or monthly transaction fees and commission minimums, are earned on a monthly basis in the period the stand-ready trading services are provided and are generally billed monthly. For variable transaction fees and commissions, the Company charges its clients amounts calculated based on the mix of products traded and the volume of transactions executed. Variable transaction fee and commission revenue associated with a particular trade is recognized and recorded on a trade-date basis when the individual trade occurs and is generally billed when the trade settles or is billed monthly. Variable commission revenue based upon a client’s ADB invested in money market funds during a calendar month is recorded monthly and the rates billed may vary by money market fund and by the total level of funds invested. Variable discounts or rebates on transaction fees and commissions are earned and applied monthly or quarterly, are generally resolved within the same reporting period and are recorded as a reduction to revenue in the period the relevant trades occur.
The Company also earns fees from an affiliate of LSEG relating to the sale of market data to LSEG, which distributes that data. Included in these fees, which are billed quarterly, are real-time market data fees which are recognized monthly on a straight-line basis, as LSEG receives and consumes the benefit evenly over the contract period, as the data is provided. Also included in these fees are fees for historical data sets, which are recognized when the historical data set is provided to LSEG.
27

Table of Contents

Significant judgments used in accounting for the Company’s market data agreement with LSEG include the following determinations:
• The provision of real-time market data feeds and historical data sets are distinct performance obligations.
• The performance obligations under this contract are recognized over time from the initial delivery of the data feeds until the end of the contract term or at a point in time upon delivery of each historical data set.
• The transaction prices for the performance obligations were determined by using an adjusted market assessment analysis. Inputs in this analysis included publicly available price lists for data sets provided by other companies, planned internal pricing strategies and other market data points and adjustments obtained through consultations with market data industry experts regarding estimating a standalone selling price for each performance obligation.
The Company also earns revenue for performing services as a Super Validator and Validator on the Canton Network, (collectively, “Validator Revenue”), included as a component of other revenue on the condensed consolidated statements of income . As a Super Validator and Validator, the Company verifies network transactions and contributes to the consensus mechanism of the network. For these services, the Company earns Canton Coins and the number of Canton Coins earned in a particular period is variable based on the Canton Network’s minting curve and burn-mint equilibrium and the amount of time that the Company’s nodes are active during any given minting cycle (with new rounds beginning at regular 10 minute intervals throughout each day), in comparison to other network participants. Since the Canton Network is not an entity, it may not meet the definition of a customer in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue From Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) . As a result, the Company has determined that, in the absence of a contract with a customer, it applies ASC 606, ‘by analogy’ to its Validator Revenue, considering the Canton Network’s protocol as a contract-like arrangement. Each block creation or validation round is considered a separate performance obligation and the Validator Revenue is recognized at the point in time when the validation round is complete and the Canton Coins are transferred into the Company’s digital wallet at the end of the round. Validator Revenue is recognized based on the fair value of each Canton Coin at contract inception, which has been deemed to be the start of each validation round, and therefore Validator Revenue will also vary based on any changes in the fair value of the Canton Coin, which may be highly volatile.
Some revenues earned by the Company have fixed fee components, such as monthly minimums or fixed monthly fees, and variable components, such as transaction - based fees and commissions. The breakdown of revenues between fixed and variable revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 is as follows:

5.     Income Taxes
The Corporation is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes with respect to its taxable income, including its allocable share of any taxable income of TWM LLC, and is taxed at prevailing corporate tax rates. The Company’s actual effective tax rate is impacted by the Corporation’s ownership share of TWM LLC, which will continue to increase as Continuing LLC Owners that continue to hold LLC Interests redeem or exchange their LLC Interests for shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock, as applicable, or the Corporation purchases LLC Interests from such Continuing LLC Owners. The Company’s consolidated effective tax rate also varies from period to period depending on changes in the mix of earnings, tax legislation and tax rates in various jurisdictions. The Company’s provision for income taxes includes U.S., federal, state, local and foreign taxes.
The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was approximately 23.0 % and 24.0 %, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state, local and foreign taxes and the disallowance of compensation expense tax deductions, partially offset by the effect of non-controlling interests, the Foreign-Derived Intangible Income (“FDII”) deduction and benefits associated with purchasing transferable tax credits at a discount. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state, local and foreign taxes and the disallowance of compensation expense tax deductions, partially offset by the effect of non-controlling interests and the FDII deduction.
The Company has obtained, and expects to obtain, an increase in its share of the tax basis of the assets of TWM LLC when LLC Interests are redeemed or exchanged by Continuing LLC Owners and in connection with certain other qualifying transactions. This increase in tax basis has had, and may in the future have, the effect of reducing the amounts that the Corporation would otherwise pay in the future to various tax authorities. Pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement, the Corporation is required to make cash payments to the Continuing LLC Owners equal to 50 % of the amount of U.S. federal, state and local income or franchise tax savings, if any, that the Corporation actually realizes (or in some circumstances are deemed to realize) as a result of certain future tax benefits to which the Corporation may become entitled. The Corporation expects to benefit from the remaining 50 % of tax benefits, if any, that the Corporation may actually realize. See Note 6 – Tax Receivable Agreement for further details. The tax benefit has been recognized in deferred tax assets on the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition.

6.     Tax Receivable Agreement
In connection with the Reorganization Transactions, the Corporation entered into a tax receivable agreement (the “Tax Receivable Agreement”) with TWM LLC and the Continuing LLC Owners, which provides for the payment by the Corporation to a Continuing LLC Owner of 50 % of the amount of U.S. federal, state and local income or franchise tax savings, if any, that the Corporation actually realizes (or in some circumstances is deemed to realize) as a result of (i) increases in the tax basis of TWM LLC’s assets resulting from (a) the purchase of LLC Interests from such Continuing LLC Owner, including with the net proceeds from the IPO and any subsequent offerings or (b) redemptions or exchanges by such Continuing LLC Owner of LLC Interests for shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock or for cash, as applicable, and (ii) certain other tax benefits related to the Corporation making payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement. Payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement are due within 150 days after the filing of the tax return based on the actual tax savings realized by the Corporation, and estimated payments may be made in advance. The first payment of the Tax Receivable Agreement was made in January 2021. Substantially all payments due under the Tax Receivable Agreement are payable over fifteen years following the purchase of LLC Interests from Continuing LLC Owners or redemption or exchanges by Continuing LLC Owners of LLC Interests.
The Corporation accounts for the income tax effects resulting from taxable redemptions or exchanges of LLC Interests by Continuing LLC Owners for shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock or cash, as the case may be, and purchases by the Corporation of LLC Interests from Continuing LLC Owners by recognizing an increase in deferred tax assets, based on enacted tax rates at the date of each redemption, exchange, or purchase, as the case may be. Further, the Corporation evaluates the likelihood that it will realize the benefit represented by the deferred tax asset, and, to the extent that the Corporation estimates that it is more likely than not that it will not realize the benefit, it reduces the carrying amount of the deferred tax asset with a valuation allowance.
The impact of any changes in the total projected obligations recorded under the Tax Receivable Agreement as a result of actual changes in the mix of the Company’s earnings, tax legislation and tax rates in various jurisdictions, or other factors that may impact the Corporation’s actual tax savings realized, are reflected in income before taxes on the condensed consolidated statements of income in the period in which the change occurs. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the tax receivable agreement liability on the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition totaled $ 335.8 million and $ 336.5 million, respectively. During both the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, no tax receivable agreement liability adjustment was recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

7.     Non-Controlling Interests
In connection with the Reorganization Transactions, Tradeweb Markets Inc. became the sole manager of TWM LLC and, as a result of this control, and because Tradeweb Markets Inc. has a substantial financial interest in TWM LLC, consolidates the financial results of TWM LLC into its condensed consolidated financial statements. The non-controlling interests balance reported on the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition represents the economic interests of TWM LLC held by Continuing LLC Owners. Income or loss is attributed to the non-controlling interests based on the relative ownership percentages of LLC Interests held during the period by Tradeweb Markets Inc. and the Continuing LLC Owners.
The following table summarizes the ownership interest in Tradeweb Markets LLC:

Total LLC Interests outstanding 235,984,316   100.0   % 236,397,406   100.0   %

LLC Interests held by the Continuing LLC Owners are redeemable in accordance with the TWM LLC Agreement, at the election of such holders, for shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock, as applicable, on a one -for-one basis or, at the Company’s option, a cash payment in accordance with the terms of the TWM LLC Agreement.

Stock-Based Compensation Plans
Under the Tradeweb Markets Inc. 2019 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, the Company is authorized to issue up to 8,841,864 new shares of Class A common stock to employees, officers and non-employee directors. Under this plan, the Company may grant awards in respect of shares of Class A common stock, including restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) with only time-based vesting conditions, performance-based restricted stock units with both time and performance-based vesting conditions, stock options and dividend equivalent rights. The Company refers to performance-based restricted stock units that vest based on the financial performance of the Company as “PRSUs” and performance-based restricted stock units that vest based on market conditions, such as total shareholder return, as “PSUs,” RSUs, PRSUs and PSUs each represent promises to issue actual shares of Class A common stock at the end of a vesting period. RSAs are issued shares of restricted Class A common stock that are released to an employee at the end of a vesting period. Stock options have a maximum contractual term of 10 years.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company granted 455,214 RSUs, 229,487 PRSUs and 113,428 PSUs at a weighted-average grant-date fair value per share of $ 123.86 , $ 124.42 and $ 175.62 , respectively.

Table of Contents

RSU awards granted to employees will generally vest one-third each year over a three-year period, RSU awards granted to non-employee directors will generally vest after one year and RSAs vest at the end of a two-year period.
PRSUs generally cliff vest on January 1 of the third calendar year from the calendar year of the date of grant and the number of shares a participant will receive upon vesting is determined by a performance modifier, which is adjusted as a result of the financial performance of the Company. For PRSU awards granted during 2024 and thereafter, the financial performance of the Company will be determined based on the compound annual growth rate over a three-year performance period beginning on January 1 in the year of grant. For all PRSU awards granted, the performance modifier can vary between 0 % (minimum) and 250 % (maximum) of the target ( 100 %) award amount.
PSUs cliff vest on January 1 of the third calendar year from the calendar year of the date of grant and the number of shares a participant will receive upon vesting is determined by a performance modifier, which is adjusted as a result of the Company’s total shareholder return over a three-year performance period. The performance modifier for PSUs can vary between 0 % (minimum) and 250 % (maximum) of the target ( 100 %) award amount. The grant date fair value of PSUs granted in March 2026 and 2025 was estimated using the Monte Carlo simulation model and the significant valuation assumptions used in those models were as follows:

March 15, 2026 PSU Grant
March 17, 2025 PSU Grant

Maturity (years) 2.8 2.8
Annualized Volatility 25.33   % 25.04   %

Share Repurchase Programs
The Company’s board of directors has authorized share repurchase programs from time to time, which authorize the repurchase of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock to offset annual dilution from stock-based compensation plans, as well as to opportunistically repurchase the Company’s Class A common stock. Pursuant to these share repurchase programs, the Company may make repurchases in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions, through accelerated repurchase programs (including through the use of derivatives), pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans or through enhanced open-market repurchases (eOMR). Any share repurchases are conducted in compliance with applicable legal requirements and the manner, timing and amount of any repurchases are based on an evaluation of market conditions, stock price and other factors. The Company’s share repurchase programs do not require the Company to acquire a specific number of shares, have no termination date and may be suspended, amended or discontinued at any time. The excess of the repurchase price paid over the par value of the Class A common stock, including any excise tax payable on such share repurchase, is recorded as a reduction to retained earnings.
On December 5, 2022, the board of directors authorized a share repurchase program for the purchase of up to $ 300.0 million of the Company’s Class A common stock (the “2022 Share Repurchase Program”), after completing in October 2022, the $ 150.0  million of total repurchases of the Company’s Class A common stock authorized under its previous share repurchase program. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company acquired a total of 482,621 shares of Class A common stock at an average price of $ 105.10 , for purchases totaling $ 50.7 million, pursuant to the 2022 Share Repurchase Program. There were no share repurchases during the three months ended March 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2026, a total of $ 23.2 million remained available for repurchase pursuant to the 2022 Share Repurchase Program.

Table of Contents

On February 5, 2026, the board of directors authorized a new share repurchase program for the purchase of up to $ 500.0 million of the Company’s Class A common stock (the “2026 Share Repurchase Program”) once the 2022 Share Repurchase Program has been exhausted. As of March 31, 2026, a total of $ 500.0 million remained available for repurchase pursuant to the 2026 Share Repurchase Program.
Other Share Repurchases
During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company withheld 765,130 and 346,219 shares, respectively, of Class A common stock from employee stock option, PRSU, PSU and RSU awards, at an average price per share of $ 111.06 and $ 137.46 , respectively, and an aggregate value of approximately $ 85.0  million and $ 47.6  million, respectively, based on the price of the Class A common stock on the date the relevant withholding occurred. These shares are withheld in order for the Company to cover the employee payroll tax withholding obligations upon the exercise of stock options and settlement of PRSUs, PSUs and RSUs and such shares were not withheld in connection with the share repurchase programs discussed above.

Cash Equivalents
The Company’s cash equivalents are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices in active markets.
Investments in Available-for-Sale Debt Securities
In April 2024, the Company made a strategic investment in a convertible note with a principal amount and original amortized cost basis of $ 10.0  million. The investment was made as part of the Company’s broader initiative to support the digitization of capital markets through the adoption of blockchain technology. The convertible note accrues interest at a rate of 5 % per annum, compounded annually, and matures on the earliest to occur of January 19, 2027, an event of default or a change in control as each term is defined in the convertible note. The note and accrued interest will convert to equity securities of the issuer on January 19, 2027, if not previously repaid or converted upon certain defined financing events. In the fourth quarter of 2025, the issuer announced that it entered into a definitive business combination agreement through which the issuer will become a publicly-listed company (the “Merger Transaction”), subject to issuer shareholder approval, customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals, at a $ 1.25  billion pre-money equity value, subject to customary valuation adjustments. If completed, the Merger Transaction would trigger the conversion of the convertible note and accrued interest.
The convertible note is accounted for as an available-for-sale debt security and the convertible note and accrued interest is included within digital assets and other investments at fair value on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of financial condition at a fair va lue of $ 26.1 million and $ 24.9 million as o f March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively . The convertible note, including accrued interest, had an amortized cost basis of $ 11.0 million and $ 10.9 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively . There were no credit losses recorded on the convertible note during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, t here w ere $ 1.1 million and $ 3.2 million of unrealized gains, respectively, recorded as a component of other comprehensive income related to an increase in fair value of the convertible note during the periods. The convertible note is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because the valuation requires assumptions that are both significant and unobservable. The primary method used to estimate the fair value of the convertible note as of March 31, 2026 was a probability-weighted expected return model which incorporated the credit risk of the issuer and scenarios in wh ich the note would convert into equity, the estimated equity value of the issuer and the conversion terms outlined in the convertible note agreement. Significant unobservable inputs included a discount rate of 12 % and management’s assessment of the probability of the issuer obtaining shareholder approval for the Merger Transaction and the corresponding expected realization of value to the Company if the Merger Transaction closes at the expected valuation . Any increase in the discount rate used, any decrease in the probability of shareholder approval, the closing of the merger at a lower valuation and/or any increase in the estimated time to close would result in a lower fair value measurement. Similarly, any decrease in the discount rate used, any increase in the probability of shareholder approval, the closing of the Merger Transaction at a higher valuation and/or any decrease in the estimated time to close would result in a higher fair value measurement.

Canton Coins
The Canton Network’s Global Synchronizer includes a utility token, which is a digital asset called the Canton Coin. Beginning in the third quarter of 2024, the Company began earning and continues to earn Canton Coins for its function as a Super Validator and Validator on the Global Synchronizer, and then generally holds the Canton Coins on its balance sheet for investment purposes and may use Canton Coins to pay fees associated with its own Canton Network activity. On March 3, 2026, the Canton Network approved a long-term locking and commitment framework for Super Validators (the “Locking Commitment”) designed to align Super Validator incentives with the long-term success of the Canton Network and create visible, on-chain commitment of the Super Validators to the Canton Network. To continue earning Canton Coins for its function as a Super Validator, the Locking Commitment requires Super Validators, including the Company, to lock a defined percentage of its aggregate lifetime Canton Coins earned for its function as a Super Validator. Once implemented, the amount of Super Validator weight assigned to the Company will be based on the tiered percentage Locking Commitment elected by the Company. The Locking Commitment percentages step down over time and are scheduled to end in mid-2029. While Canton Coins are locked, they may not be transferred to third parties and once an election to unlock is made, 1/365 of the requested unlock amount becomes liquid each day. The final Locking Commitment election is binding beginning in May 2026 and the Company is currently still evaluating its final Locking Commitment election.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized $ 3.7 million and $ 0.3 million, respectively, in other revenue relating to Canton Coins earned in exchange for providing services as a Super Validator and Validator on the Canton Network.
The following table presents the Company’s Canton Coin holdings as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 :

March 31, 2026 December 31, 2025
Quantity of Coins Cost Basis Fair Value Quantity of Coins Cost Basis Fair Value

(dollars in thousands)
Canton Coins 1.6 billion $ 15,130   $ 243,498   1.6 billion $ 11,461   $ 242,729  

In November 2025, the Canton Coin began spot trading across several global digital asset exchanges and therefore its valuation was transferred from Level 3 to Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy as a result of the increase in observable pricing available from active markets. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s Canton Coin holdings were measured at fair value using quoted prices from the Company’s principal market for the sale of Canton Coins at the time of measurement.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, unrealized gains/losses related to changes of the fair value of Canton Coins totaled a loss of $ 2.9  million and a gain of $ 4.2  million, respectively, included as a component of other income (loss), net on the condensed consolidated statements of income. There were no material realized gains or realized losses recorded on the disposition of Canton Coins during both the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.
Investment in Canton Strategic Holdings
In November 2025, the Company exchanged approximately 161  million Canton Coins for approximately 8  million pre-funded warrants (“PFWs”), which upon exercise, entitle the Company the right to receive an equivalent number of shares of common stock of Canton Strategic Holdings, Inc. (formerly known as Tharimmune, Inc.) (“CNTN”). The exercisability of the PFWs was contingent on the approval of CNTN’s shareholders and if shareholder approval was not obtained by May 13, 2026, the PFWs would have been terminated and the Company would have been entitled to the receipt of the 161  million Canton Coins originally pre-funded. On the date of the exchange, both the 161  million Canton Coins and the 8  million PFWs were valued at approximately $ 25.0  million.
Until the approval of CNTN’s shareholders was obtained, the PFWs were accounted for as a digital asset loan receivable. On the November 2025 date of exchange, the Company derecognized the 161  million Canton Coins, recognized a $ 24.9  million realized gain on the transfer of the Canton Coins during the fourth quarter of 2025 and recorded a $ 25.0  million digital asset loan receivable, included as a component of digital assets and other investments at fair value on the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition as of December 31, 2025. Until shareholder approval was obtained, the digital asset loan receivable was remeasured on a recurring basis to the fair market value of the Canton Coins, through an adjustment to unrealized gain/(loss), included as a component of other income (loss), net on the condensed consolidated statements of income. As of December 31, 2025, the digital asset loan receivable was classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Its carrying value was determined based on the fair value of the Canton Coin, as adjusted for an allowance for credit loss. As of December 31, 2025, the fair value of the Canton Coin was an observable valuation input.

On January 30, 2026, CNTN’s shareholders approved the issuance of the PFWs and the Company derecognized the digital asset loan receivable which had a carrying value as of December 31, 2025 totaling $ 24.4  million, including the reversal of the allowance for credit loss of $ 0.2  million and previously unrealized losses totaling $ 0.4  million, recorded a $ 39.8  million investment in the PFWs and recognized a $ 14.8  million realized gain, included as a component of other income (loss), net on the condensed consolidated statements of income.
Subsequent to the January 30, 2026 approval of CNTN’s shareholders, the PFWs are accounted for as an equity security with a readily determinable fair value and included as a component of digital assets and other investments at fair value on the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. The PFWs are measured at fair value based on the quoted public share price of CNTN common stock and are therefore classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as of March 31, 2026. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recognized unrealized losses related to changes of the fair value of the PFWs totaling $ 13.2 million, included as a component of other income (loss), net on the condensed consolidated statements of income.
As of March 31, 2026, the PFWs are not able to be sold or transferred by the Company and if exercised, one-third of the shares of common stock are also subject to lock-up restrictions on the sale or transfer of those shares through May 5, 2026.

Foreign Exchange Derivative Contracts
The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate its U.S. dollar and British pound sterling versus euro exposure, generally with a duration of less than 12 months. The valuations for the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts are primarily based on the difference between the exchange rate associated with the contract and the exchange rate at the current period end for the tenor of the contract. Foreign currency forward contracts are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the counterparty on each of these foreign exchange derivative contracts was an affiliate of LSEG and therefore the corresponding assets or liabilities on such contracts were included in receivable and due from related parties or payable and due to related parties, respectively, on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of financial condition.
The following table summarizes the aggregate U.S. dollar equivalent notional amount of the Company ’ s foreign exchange derivative contracts not designated as hedges for accounting purposes:

The carrying value of financial instruments not measured at fair value classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy approximates fair value because of the relatively short term nature of the underlying assets or liabilities. The memberships in clearing organizations, which are included in other assets on the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition, are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because the valuation requires assumptions that are both significant and unobservable.
Non-recurring Fair Value Measurements
The Company measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis, such as assets acquired in a business combination, intangible assets, equity method investments and equity investments without readily determinable fair values for which the measurement alternative has been elected.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company held equity method investments totaling $ 24.1  million and $ 4.5  million, respectively, included as a component of other assets on the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. As of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company also had $ 5.0  million in unfunded capital commitments related to its equity method investments. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized an equity pickup loss of $ 0.4  million and none , respectively, included in other income (loss), net in the condensed consolidated statements of income, relating to its pro rata share of operating performance of its equity method investments. There were no impairments recorded on equity method investments during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company held minority equity investments in various companies without readily determinable fair values totaling $ 74.9 million and $ 44.8 million, respectively, included as a component of other assets on the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. There were no impairments or unrealized gains recorded on minority equity investments during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. Cumulative impairments on minority equity investments held as of March 31, 2026 totaled $ 22.7 million. Cumulative unrealized gains on minority equity investments held as of March 31, 2026 totaled $ 4.3 million.
The Company’s investments are subject to general contractual sale restrictions that may prohibit the transfer or sale of the investment without prior consent of the investee and/or other investors.

11.     Credit Risk
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash and highly liquid investments held by a limited number of global financial institutions, including cash amounts in excess of federally insured limits. To mitigate this concentration of credit risk, the Company invests through high-credit-quality financial institutions, monitors the concentration of credit exposure of investments with any single obligor and diversifies as determined appropriate.

Table of Contents

In the normal course of business, the Company, as agent, executes transactions with, and on behalf of, other brokers and dealers. If the agency transactions do not settle because of failure to perform by either counterparty, the Company will recognize a receivable from (and a matching payable to) brokers and dealers and clearing organizations for the proceeds from the unsettled transaction, until the failed transaction settles. The Company may be obligated to discharge the obligation of the non-performing party and, as a result, may incur a loss if the market value of the security is different from the contract amount of the transaction. However, from time to time, the Company enters into repurchase and/or reverse repurchase agreements to facilitate the clearance of securities relating to fails to deliver or receive. The Company seeks to manage credit exposure related to these agreements to repurchase (or reverse repurchase), including the risk related to a decline in market value of collateral (pledged or received), by entering into agreements to repurchase with overnight or short-term maturity dates and only entering into repurchase transactions with netting members of the Fixed Income Clearing Corporation (“FICC”). The FICC operates a continuous net settlement system, whereby as trades are submitted and compared, the FICC becomes the counterparty.
The Company self-clears wholesale U.S. Treasury trades executed on its platform by non-FICC members. The number of self-cleared trades that settle over the fed wire, instead of FICC clearing, may impact the number of U.S. Treasury failed settlement transactions. As of March 31, 2026, the Company recorded a $ 131.3  million receivable and a $ 130.7  million payable from/to brokers and dealers and clearing organizations related to failed settlement transactions and the Company self-funded the remaining $ 0.6  million difference between the fail to deliver and fail to receive. All of the failed settlement transactions outstanding as of March 31, 2026 were fully settled during April 2026.
Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Company, as an introducing broker, executes transactions on behalf of or with clients of the Company, which are cleared by a clearing broker. Under the arrangement between the Company and the clearing broker, the Company is responsible for losses that may result from the clearing broker’s rejection, reversal or cancellation of a transaction. If there are temporary errors or delays in the processing or settlement of transactions, the clearing broker may require, usually with two business days’ notice, that the Company provide cash deposits until the errors are resolved.
A substantial number of the Company’s transactions are collateralized and executed with, and on behalf of, a limited number of broker-dealers. The Company’s exposure to credit risk associated with the nonperformance of these clients in fulfilling their contractual obligations pursuant to securities transactions can be directly impacted by volatile trading markets which may impair the clients’ ability to satisfy their obligations to the Company.
The Company does not expect nonperformance by counterparties in the above situations. However, the Company’s policy is to monitor its market exposure and counterparty risk. In addition, the Company has a policy of reviewing, as considered necessary, the credit standing of each counterparty with which it conducts business.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company may be exposed to credit risk regarding its receivables, which are primarily receivables from financial institutions, including investment managers and broker-dealers. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses based upon an estimate of the amount of potential credit losses in existing accounts receivable, as determined from a review of aging schedules, past due balances, historical collection experience and other specific account data. Analysis of the financial condition of the Company’s counterparties is also performed.
Account balances are pooled based on the following risk characteristics:
• Geographic location
• Transaction fee type (billing type)
• Legal entity
An allowance for credit losses is also recognized for any credit impairment of the Company’s digital asset loan receivable and available-for-sale debt securities. As of December 31, 2025, the Company maintained an allowance for credit loss with regards to its digital asset loan receivable totaling $ 0.2  million, based on a review of the credit risk of the counterparty and the characteristics of the arrangement. As further described in Note 10 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Other Assets, in January 2026, upon CNTN shareholder approval for the issuance of the PFWs, the digital asset loan receivable and the related allowance for credit loss were reversed, resulting in a reversal of credit loss expense totaling $ 0.2  million during the three months ended March 31, 2026. There was no allowance for credit losses recorded on available-for-sale debt securities as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 and there was no credit loss expense recognized during each of the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Write-Offs
Once determined uncollectible, aged balances are written off against the allowance for credit losses. This determination is based on analysis of individual receivables and aging schedules, which are disaggregated based on the risk characteristics described above. Based on current policy, this generally occurs when the receivable is 360 days past due.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company maintained an allowance for credit losses with regard to its receivables of $ 0.4 million and $ 0.6 million, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, recoveries resulted in a reversal of credit loss expense relating to receivables totaling $ 0.1 million and $ 0.2 million, respectively.

12.     Commitments and Contingencies
From time to time, the Company is subject to various claims, lawsuits and other legal proceedings, including reviews, investigations and proceedings by governmental and self-regulatory agencies regarding its business. While the ultimate resolution of these matters cannot presently be determined, the Company does not believe that, taking into account any applicable insurance coverage, any of the pending legal proceedings could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations.
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into agreements with its clients which provide the clients with indemnification rights, including in the event that the electronic marketplaces of the Company infringe upon the intellectual property or other proprietary right of a third party. The Company’s exposure under these agreements is unknown as this would involve estimating future claims against the Company which have not yet occurred. However, based on its experience, the Company expects the risk of a material loss to be remote.
Although the Company was dismissed from a lawsuit relating to interest rate swaps in 2017, the claims brought by certain swap execution facilities against the remaining defendant financial institutions continue and could still be appealed as to the Company.
The Company records its best estimate of a loss, including estimated defense costs, when the loss is considered probable and the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated. Based on its experience, the Company believes that the amount of damages claimed in a legal proceeding is not a meaningful indicator of the potential liability. At this time, the Company cannot reasonably predict the timing or outcomes of, or estimate the amount of loss, or range of loss, if any, related to its pending legal proceedings and therefore does not have any contingency reserves established for any of these matters.
Revolving Credit Facility
On November 21, 2023, the Company entered into a five year , $ 500.0  million unsecured revolving credit facility (the “2023 Revolving Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of banks, which replaced its $ 500.0  million secured credit facility entered into on April 8, 2019.
The 2023 Revolving Credit Facility provides borrowing capacity to be used to fund ongoing working capital needs, letters of credit and for general corporate purposes, including potential future acquisitions and expansions. Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, the Company is able to increase the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility by $ 250.0  million with the consent of the lenders participating in the increase. Borrowings under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility may be, at the option of the Company, in U.S. dollars, Euros or Sterling. The 2023 Revolving Credit Facility also provides for the issuance of up to $ 5.0  million of letters of credit as well as borrowings on same-day notice, referred to as swingline loans, in an amount of up to $ 50.0  million. The 2023 Revolving Credit Facility will mature on November 21, 2028.
Borrowings under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either (a) a base rate equal to the greatest of (i) the administrative agent’s prime rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus ½ of 1.00% and (iii) one month Term SOFR plus 1.00 % plus a credit adjustment spread of 0.10 %, in each case plus a margin based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio ranging from 0.25 % to 0.75 %, or (b) a rate equal to (i) in the case of borrowings in U.S. dollars, Term SOFR plus a credit adjustment spread of 0.10 %, subject to a 0.00 % floor, (ii) in the case of borrowings in Sterling, SONIA subject to a 0.00 % floor, and (iii) in the case of borrowings in Euros, EURIBOR, subject to a 0.00 % floor, in each case plus a margin based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio ranging from 1.25 % to 1.75 %. The agreement that governs the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility also includes a commitment fee of 0.25 % for available but unborrowed amounts and other administrative fees that are payable quarterly. Financial covenant requirements include maintaining minimum ratios related to interest coverage and leverage.
As of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were $ 0.5 million in letters of credit issued and no borrowings outstanding under the 2023 Revolving Credit Facility.
