Robinhood beats on earnings and revenue in Q1
Robinhood Markets has announced financial results for the first quarter of 2025, which ended March 31, 2025.
Total net revenues increased 50% year-over-year to $927 million. Transaction-based revenues increased 77% year-over-year to $583 million, primarily driven by cryptocurrencies revenue of $252 million, up 100%, options revenue of $240 million, up 56%, and equities revenue of $56 million, up 44%.
Net interest revenues increased 14% year-over-year to $290 million, primarily driven by growth in interest-earning assets and securities lending activity, partially offset by lower short-term interest rates.
“This quarter, we significantly accelerated product innovation across our key initiatives, highlighted by the announcement of Robinhood Strategies, Banking, and Cortex,” said Vlad Tenev, Chair and CEO of Robinhood. “Customers have clearly responded — demonstrated by record-breaking net deposits, Robinhood Gold subscriptions, and options volume, as well as robust year-over-year growth in trading across all asset classes.”
“We started the year off strong, driving market share gains, closing the acquisition of TradePMR, and remaining disciplined on expenses,” said Jason Warnick, Chief Financial Officer of Robinhood. “As a result, in Q1 we grew revenues by 50 percent year-over-year and EPS by over 100 percent. It’s also great to see strong customer engagement to start Q2. Additionally, we continue to return capital to shareholders and increased our share repurchase authorization by $500 million to $1.5 billion, reflecting management and the board’s confidence in our financial strength and future growth prospects.”
