Earnings in 6 days (2026-11-05). Expect elevated volatility around the report — consider waiting for post-earnings price action before new entries.

Hold if already holding. Not a fresh buy at $11.44, but acceptable to hold if already in. Reasons: Leverage penalty (D/E 1.6): -1.0; Earnings in 6 days (event risk).

About BGC Group, Inc.

About BGC Group, Inc.

BGC Group brokered transactions in fixed income, FX, equities, derivatives, and ECS products through 2,510 front-office personnel across 40+ cities globally at December 31, 2025. Fenics, the technology-driven segment, contributed 22.4% of total revenues for the year, while Voice and Hybrid brokerage represented the majority of revenues. The April 2025 acquisition of OTC Global established BGC as the world's largest energy, commodities, and shipping broker by revenue.

BGC earns commission and fee revenue from inter-dealer brokerage across fixed income, FX, equities, and ECS products, supplemented by recurring data, network, and post-trade service fees within Fenics. Voice and Hybrid brokerage generates per-transaction commissions and remains the majority of revenues; Fenics electronic platforms carry higher margins, with Fenics Integrated desks requiring expected pre-tax margins of at least 25%. In April 2025, BGC acquired OTC Global, adding crude and refined products, petrochemicals, natural gas, and ship brokerage, and in December 2025 acquired AMCOM for agricultural commodities. FMX — in which Bank of America, Barclays, Citi, Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, Morgan Stanley, and Wells Fargo collectively invested $171.7 million for a 25.75% ownership stake — operates a U.S. interest rate futures exchange and cash Treasuries platform. Top 10 customers accounted for approximately 23.6% of total consolidated revenue in 2025, with the largest at approximately 4.0%, indicating a highly fragmented client base.

Show full overview

BGC's governance structure changed significantly in 2025: on February 18, Howard W. Lutnick was confirmed as U.S. Secretary of Commerce and stepped down as Chairman and CEO, with three Co-CEOs — John J. Abularrage, JP Aubin, and Sean Windeatt — simultaneously appointed. By October 6, 2025, Lutnick completed the divestiture of his holdings in compliance with government ethics rules, transferring effective control to trusts managed by Brandon Lutnick. The 10-K also notes that BGC excluded OTC Global from management's internal controls over financial reporting assessment for fiscal 2025, acknowledging that remediation of additional controls may be required when OTC Global is integrated.
