Marex Group Reports 28% Revenue Growth in Q4 2024

Net commission income saw a 25% increase, totaling $226.0 million in Q4 2024 compared to $181.4 million in the previous year. This growth was largely due to a 22% rise in Agency and Execution revenues, which reached $160.7 million, primarily due to higher client activity in Energy markets. Additionally, Marex’s acquisition of TD Cowen’s prime services business in December 2023 contributed to a strong performance in Securities.

Net trading income also grew by 15% to $128.1 million, up from $111.5 million in Q4 2023, with a notable 24% increase in Hedging and Investment Solutions revenues, driven by heightened client demand for financial products.

Furthermore, net interest income more than doubled, increasing by 107% to $62.6 million from $30.2 million in Q4 2023, benefiting from higher average balances.

Despite a 23% rise in front office costs, mainly due to a 14% increase in average headcount and higher compensation linked to revenue growth, the company reported a significant boost in profitability. Profit Before Tax soared 97% to $77.8 million, up from $39.4 million in Q4 2023.

Adjusted Profit Before Tax also rose by 55% to $81.4 million, improving the margin to 20% from 16% in the same period last year. Profit After Tax Margin increased to 14%, compared to 9% in Q4 2023.

The Board of Directors declared an interim dividend of $0.14 per share, scheduled for payment on 31 March 2025.
