“Euronext delivered in Q3 2018 strong results, driven by growth in all its business lines. Euronext has kept a strong market share on its cash trading business, at 65.7%, along with an effective yield management. Since the beginning of the year, Euronext has diversified, consistently strengthened its position across all asset class traded, as well in non-trading activities, and delivered key milestones of our 2019 objectives for the core business. Thanks to this good performance, Group EBITDA margin is above 58% for the first nine months of 2018.

We are proud to announce that, within the scope of our Agility for Growth strategic plan, Euronext EBITDA margin over the last twelve months reached for the first time, and one year in advance, the 61% level of our 61 to 63% 2019 EBITDA margin target.
