Findings
Every deduction and every plus, with its source. Open a step to read them.
Business
Is the company getting stronger, not just bigger? · 1 finding−3 of −30
- −3Quality of earningsNet interest income is 3.9 of USD 6.8bn in revenue (57%); the net interest margin has fallen six quarters in a row (Q2: 1.93% against 2.07%), and the growth in interest income (+23%) comes only from larger balance sheets, not better spreads.
Price
Today's multiples against the company's own history and its peers. · 3 findings−13 of −35
- −9Multiples vs own historyTrailing P/E of 34.9 versus 14.8-29.1 in 2021-2025 and forward P/E of 29.6 versus 13.4-28.1; the share price has more than quadrupled since 2023 (USD 20.43 to USD 87.87), while EPS has risen 77%. The multiple is at a record level.
- −2PeersForward P/E 29.6 versus Charles Schwab 13.3 and LPL 14.8; only Robinhood (43) is more expensive.
- −2Absolute price levelEarnings yield 2.8% and dividend yield 0.4%; below the risk-free rate after the Fed rate hike in Sep 2026.
Cracks
Cash flow, customers, debt, insiders, guidance and what sits behind the headline numbers. · 3 findings−6 of −35
- −2Dependence on market activityDARTs grew only 6% year on year in September 2026 (4.11m) and fell 4% from August, while the number of accounts rose 35%; activity per customer is falling, and a market downturn hits both brokerage and interest income.
- −2Margin loans and client leverageMargin loans of USD 105.2bn (+36% in a year, +4% in a month) against client equity of 964.7bn; rising client leverage increases the risk of losses in sudden price falls.
- −2Governance and key personFounder Thomas Peterffy (born 1944) controls approx. 74% of the votes via IBG Holdings and can elect the entire board; Holdings is selling shares on an ongoing basis (prospectus July 2026). Controlled company with an unresolved succession.
Plus
Only documented strengths. · 1 finding+3 of +15
- +3Customer growth and net inflow5.58m accounts (+35% over a year), customer equity 964.7bn USD (+27%); pre-tax margin 77% in Q2 and seven quarters in a row above 70%.
Caveats
What the score does not capture, or where the data is weak.
Q3 report 15 Oct. 2026 (after the close); the score is from before the report. Stockanalysis' market cap (USD 39.8bn), net margin (16%), P/B and FCF are distorted: the listed IBG Inc. owns only about 26.5% of IBG LLC (the rest is owned by Peterffy-controlled IBG Holdings), and FCF includes customer funds. Actual market cap is about USD 150bn; P/E per Class A share is accurate
