MarketAxess delivered a solid quarter, beating revenue and EPS estimates despite ongoing weakness in U.S. credit market demand. MKTX is making progress with market share gains, expanding service revenues, and early traction in auctions and automation, positioning for a stronger 2026. The company maintains a fortress balance sheet, robust free cash flow, and consistent dividend growth, but faces risks from low volatility and rising competition.
While the top- and bottom-line numbers for MarketAxess (MKTX) give a sense of how the business performed in the quarter ended September 2025, it could be worth looking at how some of its key metrics compare to Wall Street estimates and year-ago values.
MarketAxess (MKTX) came out with quarterly earnings of $1.84 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.69 per share. This compares to earnings of $1.9 per share a year ago.
