Back

Solid quarter driven by non-volume business organic growth

Amsterdam, Brussels, Dublin, Lisbon, Milan, Oslo and Paris – 16 May 2023 – Euronext, the leading pan-European market infrastructure, today publishes its results for the first quarter of 2023.

-Strong performance of non-volume related business:

  • Technology Solutions reported €27.6 million of revenue (+19.4%[1]) thanks to the internalisation of colocation services following the migration of the Core Data Centre to Italy.
  • Advanced Data Services reached record revenue of €56.3 million (+7.0%) driven by an increased number of clients and revenue capture, as well as a strong performance of the data solutions business.
  • Custody and Settlement registered the best quarter in Euronext’s history with revenue of €64.0 million (+0.1%) supported by new fee schemes.
  • Listing activity confirmed Euronext’s leadership in Europe, despite an unfavourable IPO market, with 12 listings. 25% of the listings were from international companies. Listing revenue was €54.7 million (-1.2%), negatively impacted by the NOK depreciation over the year.
  • Non-volume related revenue accounted for 58% of Q1 2023 revenue (vs. 55% in Q1 2022) and covered 141% of underlying operating expenses, excluding D&A (vs. 151% in Q1 2022).
  • Fixed income trading reported record revenue of €26.2 million (+7.0%) driven by increasing interest rates. Power trading revenue grew to a record of €9.8 million (+8.4%) resulting from increased market share and strong momentum in the European electricity market.
  • Q1 2022 was marked by unprecedented volatility driven by geopolitical events, resulting in a strong negative comparison base for cash and derivatives trading related activities in Q1 2023:
    • Clearing revenue was €30.0 million (-6.0%), due to negative comparison base.
    • Cash trading revenue was €71.7 million (-23.7%) as volumes softened against the exceptionally strong Q1 2022. Equity market share was sustained at 63.8%. Cash revenue capture averaged 0.48bps, negatively impacted by larger average order size. Euronext confirms its floor of cash equity trading average market share greater or equal to 63%, and revenue capture around 0.52bps following the migration of Borsa Italiana cash markets to Optiq®.
    •  
  • Adjusted EBITDA[2] was €218.5 million (-13.3%) and adjusted EBITDA margin was 58.7% (-5.0pts):

    - Underlying operating expenses, excluding D&A, were at €153.8 million (+7.1%), resulting from continued cost discipline. Underlying operating expenses excluding D&A had been positively impacted in Q1 2022 by one-off items. Euronext reiterates its 2023 guidance for underlying operating expenses excluding D&A of €630 million.  

  • Reported net income, share of the parent company shareholders, was €96.5 million (-32.9%):

    - As previously announced in January 2023, Euronext incurred a €36.0 million pre-tax non-underlying provision related to the termination fee of the clearing agreement with LCH SA[3].

  • Adjusted net income[4] was €147.1 million (-10.6%), representing the second best quarter ever after a record Q1 2022.
  • Adjusted EPS[5]was €1.38 (-10.7%).
  • Deleveraging path continued with net debt to reported EBITDA at 2.4x at the end of Q1 2023 (vs. 2.6x at end of Q4 2022), and net debt to adjusted EBITDA at 2.1x.

  • Major achievement in Q1 2023 for the Borsa Italiana Group integration:

    - Euronext successfully completed the migration of equity and ETF markets of Borsa Italiana to the Euronext Optiq® trading platform on 27 March. This migration created measurable liquidity benefits for market participants and unlocked immediate revenue synergies. The completion of this first phase paves the way for the migration of other Borsa Italiana markets from Q4 2023. This upcoming migration will trigger the termination of the third-party trading platform contract, unlocking further cost synergies.  - €9.7 million run-rate annual synergies were delivered in Q1 2023, primarily reflecting the successful migration of Italian cash equity markets to Optiq®. This brings to €43.7 million the cumulated run-rate annual synergies achieved at the end of Q1 2023 since the acquisition in April 2021. - €41.1 million of cumulated implementation costs were incurred during Q1 2023, most of which related to the €36.0 million fee for the termination of the derivatives clearing agreement with LCH SA. This brings to €85.3 million the cumulated implementation costs incurred at the end of Q1 2023.  

  • Following the successful migration of Italian cash markets to Optiq®, launch of new innovative trading solutions for clients leveraging Euronext’s strengths:

    - Euronext will launch a new dark execution facility for institutional investors by Q4 2023. This new facility will enable participants to benefit from an expanded suite of on-exchange execution models from the leading pan-European venue with the largest and deepest liquidity pool. The low latency between dark and lit executions will provide with an optimised execution experience. Clients consultations on specifications are ongoing and the launch date is expected to be announced in the coming months. - Trading of non-domestic and US stocks will soon become easier for retail investors. Euronext will admit pan-European and US securities to trade on its Italian MTF GEM (Global Equity Market). - Both services will benefit from a simple and efficient post trade set-up through Euronext Clearing and  Euronext Securities.  

  • Stéphane Boujnah, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Managing Board of Euronext, said:

“This first quarter of 2023 demonstrated the robustness of Euronext’s diversified business. We recorded a solid performance in the first quarter of 2023 despite a first quarter of 2022 that was marked by unprecedented volatility on volumes due to geopolitical events resulting in a strong comparison basis. Our performance reflects the combination of strong organic growth from our non-volume related data and technology activities, and record quarters in our fixed income and power trading businesses. We continued to operate in accordance with our cost discipline, in line with our 2023 cost guidance. Overall, this translated into the second highest adjusted net income ever, at €147.1 million.

The migration of Italian cash and ETF markets to our Optiq® trading platform on 27 March 2023 was a tremendous success and brought immediate benefits to Euronext trading members. This major step in the Borsa Italiana Group integration unlocked an additional €9.7 million of run-rate synergies for the quarter, to reach €43.7 million of cumulated run-rate synergies at the end of Q1 2023. Furthermore, the migration reinforced Euronext’s position as the venue for price formation and the leading listing venue in Europe. It demonstrated Euronext’s readiness for the remaining trading and clearing migrations to come.

Going forward, we reiterate for 2023 our floor of above 63% of cash equity market share on average, and a cash trading revenue capture of around 0.52bps following the Borsa Italiana markets migration to Optiq®. Our pan-European project will also be further reinforced by the launch of a series of innovative equity trading solutions, for the benefit of institutional and retail investors. In addition, the European expansion of Euronext Clearing, starting with equities from Q4 2023, will enable us to accelerate innovation capabilities across businesses, while creating important efficiencies for clients. The upcoming milestones will enable us to create the only pan-European market infrastructure present on the entire value chain and support our ambition to shape capital markets for future generations.”

  • Q1 2023 revenue and income

In Q1 2023, Euronext consolidated revenue and income amounted to €372.3 million, down -5.9% compared to Q1 2022, mainly due to the strong comparison base for equity-related trading and FX rate variation effects, partially offset by the robust performance of non-volume related activities and better performance of fixed income and power trading activities.

Non-volume related revenue accounted for 58% of underlying Group revenue in Q1 2023, compared to  55% in Q1 2022, reflecting the successful diversification towards non-volume related activities and strong trading activity in Q1 2022 due to volatility spikes. The underlying operating expenses excluding D&A coverage ratio by non-volume related revenue was at 141% in Q1 2023, compared to 151% in Q1 2022.

  • Q1 2023 adjusted EBITDA

Underlying operational expenses excluding depreciation and amortisation increased to €153.8 million, up +7.1%, reflecting continued cost discipline. In Q1 2022, underlying operational expenses excluding depreciation and amortisation were positively impacted by relevant positive one-offs.

Consequently, adjusted EBITDA for the quarter totalled €218.5 million, down -13.3% compared to Q1 2022. This represents an adjusted EBITDA margin of 58.7%, down -5.0 points compared to Q1 2022 due to the decrease in volume-related revenue, which was partly offset by resilient non-trading related revenue and continued cost discipline.

  • Q1 2023 net income, share of the parent company shareholders

Depreciation and amortisation accounted for €40.5 million in Q1 2023, stable compared to Q1 2022. PPA related to acquired businesses accounted for €20.5 million.

Adjusted operating profit was €200.9 million, a -14.0% decrease compared to Q1 2022.

€69.7 million of non-underlying expenses, including depreciation and amortisation, were reported in Q1 2023, of which €36.0 million represent the fee provisioned for the termination of the derivatives clearing agreement with LCH SA[8], announced in January 2023 as part of Euronext Clearing’s expansion strategy and payable in 2024.

Net financing expense for Q1 2023 was €4.5 million compared to a net financing expense of €9.9 million in Q1 2022. This decrease reflects higher interest income from cash held paritally offsetting the cost of issued debt.

Results from equity investments amounted to €8.4 million in Q1 2023, representing the contribution received from LCH SA, in which Euronext currently owns an 11.1% stake, and a dividend received from Sicovam.

Income tax for Q1 2023 was €33.1 million. This translated into an effective tax rate of 24.5% for the quarter (Q1 2022: €52.0 million and 26.1% respectively). The reduction is linked to lower non-deductible expenses and higher non-taxable income.

Share of non-controlling interests mainly relating to the Borsa Italiana Group and Nord Pool amounted to €5.6 million in Q1 2023.

The reported net income, share of the parent company shareholders, decreased by -32.9% for Q1 2023 compared to Q1 2022, to €96.5 million, including the one-off expense related to the termination of the derivatives clearing agreement with LCH SA. This represents a reported EPS of €0.90 basic and €0.90 fully diluted in Q1 2023, compared to €1.35 basic and €1.35 fully diluted in Q1 2022. The weighted number of shares used over Q1 2023 was 106,726,832 for the basic calculation and 106,991,437 for the fully diluted calculation.

Adjusted net income, share of the parent company shareholders was down -10.6% to €147.1 million. Adjusted EPS (basic) was down -10.7% in Q1 2023, at €1.38 per share, based on 106,726,832  shares for Q1 2023, compared to an adjusted EPS (basic) of €1.54 per share in Q1 2022, based on 106,576,290 shares for Q1 2022.

In Q1 2023, Euronext reported a net cash flow from operating activities of €318.2 million, compared to €368.6 million in Q1 2022, reflecting the lower profit before tax. Excluding the impact on working capital from Euronext Clearing and Nord Pool CCP activities, net cash flow from operating activities accounted for 86.5% of EBITDA[9] in Q1 2023.

Listing revenue was €54.7 million in Q1 2023, a decrease of -1.2% compared to Q1 2022, reflecting the resilience of the listing offering, revenue recognition of primary and secondary listing revenue over time[10], and a negative impact from NOK depreciation over the year.

Euronext’s primary markets equity listing business sustained its leading position in Europe with 12 new listings in Q1 2023. This compared to 22 new listings in the first quarter of 2022. Euronext further welcomed two out of the three largest IPOs in Europe, with the listing of EuroGroup Laminations in Milan and the Brazilian energy company Seacrest Petroleo in Oslo, demonstrating Oslo’s international appeal for the energy sector. This quarter underlines the benefits of Euronext’s geographical diversification as Euronext Milan attracted 8 out of the 12 new Euronext listings.

In Q1 2023, Euronext’s markets reported €695.9 million raised primary equity issues. This compares to a strong Q1 2022 with €2.2 billion raised on Euronext primary markets.

Follow-on activity on equities was dynamic in Q1 2023 with Euronext’s secondary markets reporting €6.5 billion raised in secondary equity issues, compared to €2.6 billion in Q1 2022.

Euronext recorded another strong quarter for ETPs remaining a leading exchange in Europe for the listing of ETPs with 69 new listings and the onboarding of several new issuers.

Euronext maintained its position as the leading listing venue for bonds worldwide in Q1 2023[11] with over 53,000 bonds listed across all Euronext markets, despite a slowdown in global bond listing activity due to the banking crisis in March 2023. In Q1 2023, €271.0 billion in debt was raised on Euronext markets, reflecting the current market conditions, and compared to €320.5 billion raised in Q1 2022. The momentum for Euronext ESG bond offering continued in Q1 2023 and Euronext became the world’s leading ESG bond venue in terms of issuance amount and number of issuers, reaching €1 trillion in sustainable bonds listed on its markets.

In total, €278.2 billion in equity and debt was raised on Euronext’s markets in Q1 2023, compared to €325.3 billion in Q1 2022.

Euronext Corporate Services reported a solid quarter in terms of revenue at €10.7 million in Q1 2023, stable compared to Q1 2022, resulting from strong performance of the SaaS offering and lower webcast activity in a post-pandemic context.

On a like-for-like basis at constant currencies, listing revenue was up +0.6%.

  • Cash trading

Cash trading revenue decreased by -23.7% to €71.7 million in Q1 2023, resulting from lower volumes at the beginning of the year and larger average order size negatively impacting revenue capture. In Q1 2023, Euronext recorded cash average daily volumes of €11.5 billion, a decrease of -26.2% compared to Q1 2022, which was marked by high volatility linked to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Euronext cash trading yield averaged 0.48 bps, impacted by larger average order size exceeding pre-Covid levels. In particular, the Borsa Italiana pre-migration fee grid was more sensitive to order size than the legacy Euronext markets, with a negative impact on the overall Group revenue capture.

Following the successful migration of Italian Equity and ETF markets onto Optiq® on 27 March 2023, the new fee schemes brought immediate positive impact on average revenue.

Euronext also continued to guarantee best-in-class market quality. Cash equity market share over the first quarter of 2023 averaged 63.8% reflecting lower presence of real-economy flows at the start of the year before a reverse trend during the March volatility spike.

Euronext confirms the floor of 63% market share and around 0.52bps yield after the Borsa Italiana markets migration as announced on 10 February 2023.

In addition, the migration of Italian cash markets onto Optiq® generated an immediate uplift of market share for Italian cash markets and brought immediate benefits to trading members through enhanced liquidity. These concrete market improvements demonstrate the added value of connecting local markets to the Euronext model. Concretely, EBBO[12] setting has increased by around 20% following the migration.

Overall, Euronext reinforced its position as the venue of price formation throughout the quarter. EBBO setting increased consistently and Euronext’s best-in-class market quality was even more evident during volatility spikes.

The stronger position of Euronext in the European cash trading ecosystem now allows the Group to launch the first set of new innovative trading services. These include a new institutional low-latency dark offering and an enhanced offer for retail investors with the addition of pan-European and US securities to Euronext’s Italian MTF GEM (Global Equity Market). Both services will benefit from a simple and efficient clearing set-up through Euronext Clearing.

On a like-for-like basis at constant currencies, cash trading revenue was down -23.7% in Q1 2023 compared to Q1 2022.

  • Derivatives trading

Derivatives trading revenue decreased by -7.5% to €14.9 million in Q1 2023, compared to a particularly volatile Q1 2022.

During the first quarter of 2023, derivatives trading volumes decreased across the offering with  average daily volume on financial derivatives at 595,702 lots, down -20.0% from Q1 2022 primarily due to a decrease in equity individual derivatives trading reflecting the exceptionally strong volumes in Q1 2022 and uncertainties around fiscal treatment of dividend in France.

Average daily volumes on commodity derivatives were at 85,029 lots in Q1 2023, slightly down -4.2% compared to a record quarter in Q1 2022. Despite a strong comparison basis, the Euronext commodities franchise benefitted from continuous strong support from commercial clients while recording strong traction from financial clients thanks to the success of a dedicated programme.

Euronext revenue capture on derivatives trading was €0.34 per lot for the first quarter of 2023, reflecting a positively geared volume mix and solid revenue capture.

On a like-for-like basis at constant currencies, derivatives trading revenue was down -7.4% in Q1 2023 compared to Q1 2022.

  • Fixed income trading

Fixed income trading reported revenue grew by +7.0% to €26.2 million in Q1 2023, supported by market volatility and elevated interest rates, as well as continued client adoption of MTS’ electronic trading solutions. For the first quarter of 2023, MTS Cash reported €16.0 million of revenue and MTS Repo reported €6.4 million of revenue.

MTS Repo recorded record volumes, with term-adjusted average daily volumes growing +21.5% to €422.5 billion, compared to €347.9 billion in Q1 2022. MTS Cash  average daily volumes were at €21.5 billion, down -5.2% compared to record levels in Q1 2022. Other fixed income volumes also reached historically high levels with ADV up +70.2% year on year at €1.3 billion.

On a like-for-like basis at constant currencies, fixed income trading revenue was up +7.0% in Q1 2023 compared to Q1 2022.

  • FX trading

FX trading reported €6.3 million of revenue in Q1 2023, down -11.7% from Q1 2022, which was the second most active quarter for FX trading in Euronext’s history.

On a like-for-like basis at constant currencies, FX trading revenue was down -15.6% in Q1 2023 compared to Q1 2022.

  • Power trading

Power trading reached record revenue of €9.8 million in Q1 2023, up +8.4% compared to Q1 2022, driven by very strong intraday volumes, the increased footprint of Nord Pool in Central and Western Europe, UK and Ireland, and a continued robust performance in the Nordics.

Over the first quarter of 2023, average daily day-ahead power traded was 3.19TWh, up +2.1% compared to Q1 2022, and average daily intraday power traded was 0.17TWh, up +109.6% compared to Q1 2022.

On a like-for-like basis at constant currencies, power trading revenue was up +19.8% in Q1 2023 compared to Q1 2022.

  • Investor Services

Investor Services reported €2.6 million revenue in Q1 2023, representing a +16.7% increase compared to Q1 2022, resulting from continued commercial expansion cementing the franchise as the research evaluation platform of choice for the largest global investment managers.

On a like-for-like basis at constant currencies, investor services revenue was up +20.9% compared to Q1 2022.

  • Advanced Data Services

Advanced Data Services reached record revenue of €56.3 million in Q1 2023, up +7.0% from Q1 2022, driven by a strong performance of the core data business and the advanced data solutions offering, primarily support by strong traction from quant research products.

On a like-for-like basis at constant currencies, advanced data services revenue was up +7.4% compared to Q1 2022.

- Clearing

Clearing revenue was down -6.0% to €30.0 million in Q1 2023, as a result of weaker cash equity and derivatives clearing activity, partly offset by stronger bond clearing volumes. Non-volume related clearing revenue (including membership fees, treasury income received from LCH SA) accounted for €22.3 million of the total clearing revenue in Q1 2023.

Euronext Clearing activities reflected an uplift in cleared volumes for bond clearing, and a decrease in equity and derivatives clearing in line with trading volumes. In Q1 2023, Euronext Clearing revenue included €1.6 million from derivatives clearing, €4.1 million from equities clearing, and €3.5 million from bonds clearing.

On a like-for-like basis at constant currencies, clearing revenue was down -6.0% compared to Q1 2022.

The European expansion of Euronext clearing is progressing as planned, with test platform now available for clients.

- Net treasury income

As announced with the Q2 2022 results, Euronext Clearing has engaged in a partial disposal of its portfolio[13]. It disposed the portfolio maturing after 1 May 2023 while retaining its short-term portfolio maturing through April 2023, which it will hold to maturity. As a consequence, net treasury income amounted to €7.5 million in Q1 2023, a decrease of -44.2% compared to Q1 2022.

On a like-for-like basis at constant currencies, Net treasury income was down -44.2% compared to Q1 2022.

- Custody, Settlement and other Post-Trade activities

Revenue from Custody, Settlement and other Post-Trade activities, including the activities of Euronext Securities (Copenhagen, Milan, Oslo, Porto), was €64.0 million in Q1 2023, stable compared to Q1 2022, reflecting a new fee scheme and the continued recovery in the value of assets under custody offsetting slightly lower settlement activities.

35,416,670 settlement instructions were processed in the first quarter of 2023 and assets under custody were €6.3 trillion.

  • Euronext Technologies and Other revenue

Euronext Technologies and Other revenue grew to record revenue of €27.6 million in Q1 2023, up +19.4% from Q1 2022, reflecting good performance of colocation activity following the migration of Euronext’s Core Data Centre.

On a like-for-like basis at constant currencies, Euronext Technologies and Other revenue was up +18.6% compared to Q1 2022.

  • Successful migration of Borsa Italiana equity and ETF markets to the European Optiq® trading platform

On 5 April 2023, Euronext announced the successful migration of the equity and ETF markets of Borsa Italiana, part of Euronext Group, to Optiq®, Euronext’s proprietary state-of-the-art trading platform.

This migration was completed on schedule on 27 March 2023, 22 months after Borsa Italiana joined Euronext, and 9 months after the successful migration of the Euronext Core Data Centre from the United Kingdom to Italy. This historic migration is a key milestone in the Borsa Italiana Group integration process. It unlocked substantial immediate revenue synergies, contributing to the delivery of the €115 million cumulated run-rate synergy target for 2024.

The integration of the capital markets of Italy, the third-largest European economy, to Europe's largest liquidity pool, operated by Euronext, will bring significant benefits to the European financial markets ecosystem, helping finance the real economy.

Borsa Italiana’s market issuers now have seamless access to a considerably larger number of investors, a larger network of trading participants and to superior market quality. Borsa Italiana market participants will benefit from Optiq’s single platform and flexible modular design to develop new innovative products and services for the Italian market. Technology upgrades, enriched functionalities and new services have already been implemented in the Optiq platform, leveraging the combined competencies of Euronext and Borsa Italiana, to improve operational efficiency and service levels for members and issuers.

Appendix

Adjustments in financial disclosure

To highlight its underlying performance, since Q1 2022 Euronext has published underlying recurring costs, adjusted EBITDA and non-recurring costs.

Euronext has removed the exceptional items line from its financial statements. Consequently, costs previously reported as exceptional items have from Q1 2022 been included in their respective lines within Euronext operating expenses as non-underlying items.

The €150 million of implementation costs to deliver on the ‘Growth for Impact 2024’ strategic plan targets are therefore considered as non-underlying items and have been withdrawn from the underlying recurring costs.

The computation of adjusted net income and earnings per share has been adjusted accordingly. The computation of reported net income and earnings per share is not impacted.

2024 strategic plan targets remain unchanged and are not affected by this change in reporting.

The new non-IFRS indicators are defined below.

Non-IFRS financial measures

For comparative purposes, the company provides unaudited non-IFRS measures including:

  • Operational expenses excluding depreciation and amortisation, underlying operational expenses excluding depreciation and amortisation;
  • EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin.

Non-IFRS measures are defined as follows:

  • Operational expenses excluding depreciation and amortisation as the total of salary and employee benefits, and other operational expenses;
  • Underlying operational expenses excluding depreciation and amortisation as the total of salary and employee benefits, and other operational expenses, excluding non-recurring costs;
  • Underlying revenue and income as the total of revenue and income, excluding non-recurring revenue and income;
  • Non-underlying items as items of revenue, income and expense that are material by their size and/or that are infrequent and unusual by their nature or incidence are not considered to be recurring in the normal course of business and are classified as non-underlying items on the face of the income statement within their relevant category in order to provide further understanding of the ongoing sustainable performance of the Group. These items can include:
    • integration or double run costs of significant projects, restructuring costs and costs related to acquisitions that change the perimeter of the Group;
    • one-off finance costs, gains or losses on sale of subsidiaries and impairments of investments:
    • amortisation and impairment of intangible assets which are recognised as a result of acquisitions and mostly comprising customer relationships, brand names and software that were identified during purchase price allocation (PPA);
    • tax related to non-underlying items.
  • Adjusted operating profit as the operating profit adjusted for any non-underlying revenue and income and non-underlying costs, including PPA of acquired businesses;
  • EBITDA as the operating profit before depreciation and amortisation;
  • Adjusted EBITDA as the adjusted operating profit before depreciation and amortisation adjusted for any non-underlying operational expenses excluding depreciation and amortisation;
  • EBITDA margin as EBITDA divided by total revenue and income;
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin as adjusted EBITDA, divided by total revenue and income;
  • Adjusted net income, as the net income, share of the parent company shareholders, adjusted for any non-underlying items and related tax impact.

Non-IFRS financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable IFRS measures and should be read only in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements.
