Shares of Cboe Global Markets surged 4.3% after the release of its Q2 earnings on Aug. 2. The company’s net revenues grew by a robust 10% year-over-year to $513.8 million, driven by increases in cash and spot markets, derivatives markets, and data and access solutions net revenue. Although the company saw a 36.6% increase in operating expenses, it included a $81 million impairment cost recognized in the Digital reporting unit, leading to a decline in net income. However, excluding the non-recurring expenses, Cboe’s net income to common stockholders grew by 20%, reaching $226.2 million compared to the year-ago quarter.
