Dow Jones02-04 20:31

By Elias Schisgall

CME Group's profit breached $1 billion in the fourth quarter as growing trading activity boosted revenue.

The derivatives marketplace operator on Wednesday posted a profit of $1.17 billion, or $3.24 a share, compared with a profit of $863.7 million, or $2.40 a share, a year earlier.

Stripping out certain one-time items, adjusted earnings were $2.77 a share. Analysts polled by FactSet were expecting $2.75 a share.

Revenue rose to $1.65 billion, up from $1.53 billion a year earlier and in line with analyst expectations for the quarter.

Revenue from clearing and transaction fees rose to $1.33 billion, up from $1.23 billion a year earlier. Market data and information services revenue also jumped to $208 million, up from $181.6 million.

Average daily volume during the quarter was 27.4 million contracts, up 7% year-over-year. Average daily volumes rose 18% in Asia and 6% in the Europe, Middle East, and Africa region.
