Billy Hult, CEO of Tradeweb:
"Tradeweb’s client focus and broad product offering contributed
to a record ADV of $1.4tn in the first quarter of 2023, led by
significant increases in swaps volume and strong client engagement
across rates, credit, equities and money markets. Despite
challenging market conditions, including rising market volatility
and economic concerns relating to banking sector turmoil, Tradeweb
was steadfast in our approach to providing the best service for our
clients and produced strong growth across many areas of our
business. This quarter embodied who we are as a company:
client-focused, resilient and innovative. Tradeweb launched a new
market data service to calculate real-time iNAVs for ETFs, with
BlackRock as our first client. We completed the final technology
milestone of our NFI integration, with the goal to provide a better
user experience for wholesale clients on our Dealerweb CLOB. Most
recently, we were pleased to share that Tradeweb is in advanced
discussions to acquire Yieldbroker, a leading electronic trading
platform for Australia and New Zealand.”

DISCUSSION OF RESULTS
Rates – Revenues of $170.5 million in the first quarter
of 2023 increased 6.3% compared to prior year period (8.3% increase
on a constant currency basis). Rates ADV was up 16.4% driven by
record activity in swaps/swaptions ≥ 1-year and < 1-year and
record retail U.S. government bonds.
Credit – Revenues of $89.0 million in the first quarter
of 2023 increased 3.1% compared to prior year period (4.7% increase
on a constant currency basis). While credit ADV was down 2.8% from
prior year period, we reported record ADV in fully electronic U.S.
High Grade credit. On the protocol front, we achieved record ADV
across global portfolio trading, U.S. credit Tradeweb AllTrade®,
and U.S. credit RFQ, in the quarter. Tradeweb's share of fully
electronic TRACE volume for U.S. High Grade was 13.3% compared with
12.0% in the prior year period (+136 bps) and U.S. High Yield was
6.1% compared with 7.1% in the prior year period (-102 bps).
Equities – Revenues of $26.2 million in the first quarter
of 2023 decreased 1.3% compared to prior year period (1.2% increase
on a constant currency basis). While equities ADV was down 8.9%
from prior year period, we reported record ADV in equity
convertibles/swaps/options in the quarter. Strong U.S.
institutional ETF activity, driven by increased adoption of
Tradeweb's RFQ protocol, was more than offset by declines in
wholesale activity. European volumes reflected a decline in overall
market volumes.
Money Markets – Revenues of $14.8 million in the first
quarter of 2023 increased 28.5% compared to prior year period
(30.3% increase on a constant currency basis). Money Markets ADV
was up 18.9% led by record activity in repurchase agreements,
record ADV in retail money markets and continued client adoption of
Tradeweb's electronic trading solutions.
Market Data – Revenues of $22.4 million in the first
quarter of 2023 increased 5.0% compared to prior year period (6.5%
on a constant currency basis). The increase was derived primarily
from increased proprietary third party market data revenue.
Other – Revenues of $6.3 million in the first quarter of
2023 increased 16.3% compared to prior year period (the same
percentage increase on a constant currency basis). The increase was
driven primarily from an increase in revenue from software
development and implementation projects performed on behalf of
certain clients.
Operating Expenses of $206.7 million in the first quarter
of 2023 increased 3.4% compared to $199.9 million in the prior year
period due to higher technology and communications expenses, higher
general and administrative expenses and higher professional fee
expenses. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in
expenses related to employee compensation and benefits, primarily
due to decreases in incentive compensation.
Adjusted Expenses of $170.8 million increased 4.5% (6.4%
increase on a constant currency basis) compared to the prior year
period due to: higher professional fees, higher technology and
communications expenses; higher general and administrative expenses
and higher depreciation and amortization. Please see "Non-GAAP
Financial Measures" below for additional information.

Yieldbroker’s domestic client network with access to Tradeweb’s
global multi-asset platform, deep liquidity and advanced
technology, while Tradeweb customers worldwide would benefit from
increased liquidity, pre-trade transparency, and coverage of the
Australian and New Zealand debt capital markets. Tradeweb can offer

potential deal remains subject to Yieldbroker stockholder approval,
final definitive documentation, and would be subject to customary

BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Tradeweb Markets Inc. (unless the context otherwise requires,
together with its subsidiaries, referred to as “we,” “our,”
“Tradeweb,” “Tradeweb Markets” or the “Company”) closed its IPO on
April 8, 2019. As a result of certain reorganization transactions
(the “Reorganization Transactions”) completed in connection with
the IPO, on April 4, 2019, Tradeweb Markets Inc. became a holding
company whose only material assets consist of its equity interest
in Tradeweb Markets LLC (“TWM LLC”) and related deferred tax
assets. As the sole manager of TWM LLC, Tradeweb Markets Inc.
operates and controls all of the business and affairs of TWM LLC
and, through TWM LLC and its subsidiaries, conducts its business.
As a result of this control, and because Tradeweb Markets Inc. has
a substantial financial interest in TWM LLC, Tradeweb Markets Inc.
consolidates the financial results of TWM LLC and its
subsidiaries.
Numerical figures included in this release have been subject to
rounding adjustments and as a result totals may not be the
arithmetic aggregation of the amounts that precede them and figures
expressed as percentages may not total 100%.
Please refer to the Company's previously filed Quarterly Reports
on Form 10-Q and Annual Report on Form 10-K for capitalized terms
not otherwise defined herein.
UNAUDITED INTERIM RESULTS
The interim financial results presented herein for the three
months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 are unaudited. Operating
results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the full year.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This release contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the federal securities laws. Statements related to,
among other things, our guidance, including full-year 2023
guidance, future performance, the industry and markets in which we
operate, our expectations, beliefs, plans, strategies, objectives,
prospects and assumptions and future events are forward-looking
statements.
We have based these forward-looking statements on our current
expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections. While we
believe these expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections
are reasonable, such forward-looking statements are only
predictions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties,
many of which are beyond our control. These and other important
factors, including those discussed under the heading “Risk Factors”
in the documents of Tradeweb Markets Inc. on file with or furnished
to the SEC, may cause our actual results, performance or
achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied
by these forward-looking statements. Given these risks and
uncertainties, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on
such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements
contained in this release are not guarantees of future performance
and our actual results of operations, financial condition or
liquidity, and the development of the industry and markets in which
we operate, may differ materially from the forward-looking
statements contained in this release. In addition, even if our
results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity, and
events in the industry and markets in which we operate, are
consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this
release, they may not be predictive of results or developments in
future periods. Any forward-looking statement that we make in this
release speaks only as of the date of such statement. Except as
required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to update or
revise, or to publicly announce any update or revision to, any of
the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise, after the date of this
release.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This release contains “non-GAAP financial measures,” including
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted
EBIT margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income per diluted
share ("Adjusted Diluted EPS"), Adjusted Expenses, Free Cash Flow
and constant currency change, which are supplemental financial
measures that are not calculated and presented in accordance with
GAAP. We make use of non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating our
past results and future prospects. We present these non-GAAP
financial measures because we believe they assist investors and
analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting
periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not
believe are indicative of our core operating performance.
Management and our board of directors use Adjusted EBITDA,
Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBIT margin to
assess our financial performance and believe they are helpful in
highlighting trends in our core operating performance, while other
measures can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic
decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in
which we operate and capital investments. Further, our executive
incentive compensation is based in part on components of Adjusted
EBITDA.
We use Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS as
supplemental metrics to evaluate our business performance in a way
that also considers our ability to generate profit without the
impact of certain items. Each of the normal recurring adjustments
and other adjustments included in Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted
Diluted EPS help to provide management with a measure of our
operating performance over time by removing items that are not
related to day-to-day operations or are non-cash expenses.
We use Adjusted Expenses as a supplemental metric to evaluate
our underlying operating performance over time by removing items
that are not related to day-to-day operations or are non-cash
expenses.
We use Free Cash Flow to assess our liquidity in a way that
considers the amount of cash generated from our core operations
after non-acquisition related expenditures for capitalized software
development costs and furniture, equipment and leasehold
improvements.
We present certain changes on a “constant currency” basis. Since
our consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S.
dollars, we must translate non-U.S. dollar revenues and expenses
into U.S. dollars. Constant currency change, which is a non-GAAP
financial measure, is defined as change excluding the effects of
foreign currency fluctuations. Constant currency information is
calculated by translating the current period and prior period’s
results using the annual average exchange rates for the prior
period. We use constant currency change as a supplemental metric to
evaluate our underlying performance between periods by removing the
impact of foreign currency fluctuations. We present certain
constant currency change information because we believe it provides
investors and analysts a useful comparison of our results and
trends between periods. This information should be considered in
addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in
accordance with GAAP.
See the attached schedules for reconciliations of the non-GAAP
financial measures contained in this release to their most
comparable GAAP financial measure. Non-GAAP financial measures have
limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider these
non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as alternatives to net
income attributable to Tradeweb Markets Inc., net income, net
income margin, earnings per share, operating income, operating
expenses, cash flow from operating activities or any other
financial measure prepared or derived in accordance with GAAP. You
are encouraged to evaluate each adjustment included in the
reconciliations. In addition, in evaluating Adjusted EBITDA,
Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT margin,
Adjusted EBT, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted
Expenses and Free Cash Flow, you should be aware that in the
future, we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in the
presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures.
Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be
construed as an inference that our future results will be
unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. In addition, the
non-GAAP financial measures contained in this release may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in
our industry or across different industries.
MARKET AND INDUSTRY DATA
This release includes estimates regarding market and industry
data that we prepared based on our management’s knowledge and
experience in the markets in which we operate, together with
information obtained from various sources, including publicly
available information, industry reports and publications, surveys,
our clients, trade and business organizations and other contacts in
the markets in which we operate. In presenting this information, we
have made certain assumptions that we believe to be reasonable
based on such data and other similar sources and on our knowledge
of, and our experience to date in, the markets in which we operate.
While such information is believed to be reliable for the purposes
used herein, no representations are made as to the accuracy or
completeness thereof and we take no responsibility for such
information.
