CMC Markets anticipates strong H1 revenue growth for 2025, driven by strategic initiatives and increased client trading activity.
CMC Markets has shared an optimistic financial outlook for H1 revenue growth in fiscal year 2025. The company expects net operating income to reach approximately £180 million for the six months ending September 30, 2024, representing a substantial 45% increase from £123 million during the same period last year.
This remarkable growth reflects CMC’s ongoing efforts in diversifying its services and expanding its Business-to-Business (B2B) segment, alongside robust client trading activity. In a significant turnaround, CMC Markets forecasts a profit before tax of around £51 million for H1 2025, a notable recovery from a £2 million loss in the corresponding period of the previous year. This resurgence underscores the effectiveness of the company’s strategic initiatives, including stringent cost management practices.
The company expects to decrease operating costs, excluding variable remuneration and non-recurring charges, by approximately 7%, from £122 million in H1 2024 to £113 million this year. “Management remains committed to enhancing profit margins while maintaining a disciplined investment approach and driving operational efficiencies across the organization,” the company stated. In addition to these financial advancements, CMC Markets also focuses on enhancing its service offerings.
The company plans to launch cash ISAs in the UK, capitalizing on its treasury management division and proprietary technology. A notable aspect of their growth strategy includes a partnership with Revolut, currently in the client onboarding phase following a soft launch. This collaboration steadily increases the number of active trading clients, although specific figures have not been disclosed.
CMC Markets previously shared its fiscal year 2024 results in June, highlighting a 52% increase in adjusted pre-tax profit, driven by strong client trading and diversification initiatives. The company plans to release its full interim results for H1 FY25 on November 21, 2024, promising further insights into its evolving financial landscape.
