GREENWICH, Conn. –
Interactive Brokers Group, Inc. (NASDAQ GS:IBKR), an automated global electronic broker, reported diluted earnings per share of $0.57 for the quarter ended December 31, 2019 compared to $0.57 for the same period in 2018, and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.58 for both this quarter and for the same period in 2018.
Net revenues were $500 million and income before income taxes was $312 million this quarter, compared to net revenues of $492 million and income before income taxes of $309 million for the same period in 2018. Adjusted net revenues were $503 million and adjusted income before income taxes was $315 million this quarter, compared to adjusted net revenues of $496 million and adjusted income before income taxes of $313 million. The results for the quarter were positively impacted by strong growth in net interest income, which increased $44 million, or 18%, from the year-ago quarter; partially counterbalanced by lower commissions revenue, which decreased $37 million, or 18%, from the year-ago quarter.
The Interactive Brokers Group, Inc. Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.10 per share. This dividend is payable on March 13, 2020 to shareholders of record as of February 28, 2020.
Effective this quarter, we introduced the reporting of non-GAAP financial measures which exclude certain items that may not be indicative of our core operating results and business outlook and may be useful in evaluating the operating performance of our business and provide a better comparison of our results in the current period to those in prior and future periods. See the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures starting on page 11.

Segment Overview
Electronic Brokerage
Electronic brokerage segment income before income taxes increased 1% to $314 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2019, compared to the same period last year. Net revenues decreased 1% to $486 million on lower commissions revenue and other income, partially offset by higher net interest income.
Commissions revenue decreased 18% from the year-ago quarter on lower customer trading volume in options, futures and stocks. Net interest income increased 19% as average customer credit balances and securities lending balances increased from the year-ago quarter. Pretax profit margin was 65% for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, up from 63% in the same period last year.
Customer accounts grew 15% to 690 thousand and customer equity increased 36% from the year-ago quarter to $174.1 billion. Total DARTs for cleared and execution-only customers decreased 16% to 797 thousand from the year-ago quarter. Cleared DARTs decreased 16% to 719 thousand from the same period last year.
Market Making
Market making segment income before income taxes decreased 44% to $5 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2019, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to lower net revenues from the remaining operations.
Corporate
For the quarter ended December 31, 2019, we recognized a mark-to-market loss of approximately $7 million on our strategic investment in Up Fintech Holding Limited (“Tiger Brokers”). For the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 we recognized a net mark-to-market gain of $9 million on this investment.
Effects of Foreign Currency Diversification
In connection with our currency diversification strategy, we have determined to base our net worth in GLOBALs, a basket of 14 major currencies in which we hold our equity. In this quarter, our currency diversification strategy increased our comprehensive earnings by $50 million, as the U.S. dollar value of the GLOBAL increased by approximately 0.74%. The effects of the currency diversification strategy are reported as components of (1) Other Income ($12 million) in the corporate segment and (2) Other Comprehensive Income ($38 million). With the introduction of non-GAAP measures, which exclude the impact of the GLOBAL, the Company has removed diluted earnings per share on comprehensive income from the above disclosures.
Regulatory Matters
The Company is subject to regulatory oversight and examination by numerous governmental and self-regulatory authorities. The Company is currently providing information to certain of such authorities, including FINRA, the SEC, the CFTC and the United States Department of Justice, and cooperating with those authorities. The Company believes that the regulators are focused on compliance practices, including anti money laundering and Bank Secrecy Act practices. The Company periodically reviews these practices to make them more robust and to keep pace with changing regulatory standards, and the Company has been enhancing and augmenting its procedures and personnel in these areas over the past several years. While the outcome of the examinations and inquiries currently in progress cannot be predicted, the Company does not believe that they are likely to have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s financial results.
