Robinhood Markets Inc (NASDAQ:HOOD) is gearing up to announce its second-quarter earnings on Wednesday after the market closes. Investors are eagerly anticipating the results as they could shed light on retail trading activity.
Let’s delve into what can be expected.
Robinhood By The Numbers: The company, headquartered in Menlo Park, California, is projected to report a loss of 2 cents per share with revenues reaching $475.02 million.
While revenue expectations show a significant 49.38% increase compared to the previous year, they are down by 9.6% from the previous quarter. Despite the projected 2-cent-per-share loss, this would be an impressive 93.55% improvement compared to the same period last year.
One of the crucial factors influencing Robinhood’s second-quarter performance is the impact of higher interest rates. The Federal Reserve’s decision to hike rates to 5%-5.25% during the same period is anticipated to have positively affected the company’s net interest income (NII).
Market consensus estimates for NII stand at $230 million, indicating a 10.6% increase, suggesting that Robinhood might have adeptly navigated the interest rate environment.
Another aspect drawing investor attention is transaction-based revenues, expected to reach $187.1 million.
The figure will be influenced by anticipated declines in options, equity, and crypto transaction revenues.
