IBKR Stock Gains on Higher June DARTs: Should You Buy, Hold, or Sell?

Interactive Brokers Group, Inc. IBKR reported a rise in its client Daily Average Revenue Trades (DARTs) on a year-over-year basis for June 2025. In light of this, shares of the company rose 3.4% in yesterday's trading session. Total client DARTs for June were 3,448,000, representing a 39.7% increase from June 2024. This was primarily driven by higher net new accounts and options trading, partially offset by lower futures trading. Interactive Brokers has been benefiting from heightened market volatility and a rise in client activity on the back of tariff concerns and increasing geopolitical risks. Likewise, Charles Schwab SCHW and Tradeweb TW are also likely to have recorded a rise in new account openings and trading volume for June 2025. The momentum is expected to continue as markets and investors try to decipher the impact of tariffs on various sectors. Thus, IBKR will likely keep witnessing a rise in total client DARTs. Factors Supporting Interactive Brokers Global Exposure Through Product Diversification: IBKR has been taking several steps to enhance its presence globally. In May, the company extended trading hours for its Forecast Contracts to about 24 hours a day, which will boost its trading income. This move comes nearly a month after it launched Forecast Contracts in Canada, allowing investors to trade on the outcomes of several events impacting markets. In February, the company announced the expansion of its offering of Stocks and Shares Investment Savings Accounts with the addition of mutual funds in the U.K. This allows investors to access a wide range of investment products in a tax-efficient savings vehicle. It also offers advanced trading platforms, low fees and global diversification. Last November, IBKR launched Plan d'Epargne en Actions accounts to boost its offerings for its French clients. Also, the launch of IBKR GlobalTrader has enabled investors worldwide to trade stocks through mobile applications. The company was one of the first brokers to introduce Overnight Trading on U.S. stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) nearly 24 hours a day, five days a week. IBKR Lite has enabled investors to trade commission-free. Further, it launched cryptocurrency trading via Paxos Trust Company, charging lower commissions compared to other crypto exchanges. The introduction of IBKR Desktop, the next-generation desktop trading application for Windows and Mac, marks a new chapter for innovation. The company's technological superiority, combined with easier regulations to improve product velocity, will support its net revenues through higher client acquisitions. Technological Excellence: Interactive Brokers' technological superiority remains one of its strongest aspects. The company processes trades in stocks, futures, options and forex on more than 150 exchanges across several countries and currencies. IBKR's compensation expense relative to net revenues (10.8% in the first quarter of 2025) remains below its industry peers due to its superior technology. Further, the company has been emphasizing developing proprietary software to automate broker-dealer functions, leading to a steady rise in revenues. Total net revenues witnessed a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.8% over the last five years (2019-2024). The momentum continued in the first three months of 2025. Net revenues are expected to improve further in the quarters ahead, given the solid DART numbers and robust trading backdrop driven by higher market participation. IBKR's Sales Estimates IBKR Shares are Undervalued IBKR shares appear inexpensive relative to the industry. The company is currently trading at a 12-month trailing price-to-tangible book (P/TB) of 1.46X, well below the industry's 2.87X. Price-to-Tangible Book Ratio (TTM) Also, IBKR stock is trading below its peers, Tradeweb and Schwab. At present, TradeWeb and Schwab's 12-month trailing P/TB TTM are 13.85X and 8.02X, respectively. From a valuation perspective, Interactive Brokers shares present a compelling buying opportunity. Parting Thoughts on Interactive Brokers Stock Shares of Interactive Brokers have risen 31.8% this year, outperforming the industry, the Zacks Finance sector and the S&P 500 index. Its close peers, Schwab and TradeWeb, gained 23.4% and 5.9%, respectively, in the same time frame. IBKR YTD Price Performance Image Source: Zacks Investment Research Over the past month, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2025 and 2026 earnings has remained unchanged at $1.76 and $1.89, respectively. Estimate Revision Trend Image Source: Zacks Investment Research The projected figures imply stable earnings for 2025 and a rise of 7% for 2026. (Find the latest EPS estimates and surprises on Zacks Earnings Calendar.) Interactive Brokers remains well-positioned for growth in the current volatile operating environment. Also, rapidly evolving trends will benefit the company's revenues and expand its market share. The company's strong technological capabilities and diversified product offerings enhance its global reach, supporting long-term growth. Undervalued shares are another positive. However, Interactive Brokers has witnessed a persistent rise in non-interest expenses over the past few years. Expenses witnessed a CAGR of 13.8% over the five years ended 2024, with the trend persisting in the first quarter of 2025. These are likely to remain elevated due to continued investment in franchises, product launches and technology upgrades. Moreover, the company generates a large portion of its revenues (almost 37% of total net revenues in the first quarter of 2025) from overseas operations. Rising geopolitical risks, foreign exchange fluctuations and tariff concerns are likely to subdue global growth prospects. Additionally, as market volatility and client activity normalize gradually, Interactive Brokers is likely to experience a deceleration in trading volume, which will negatively impact DARTs and the top line. Given these concerns, those who own IBKR stock can sell it now and book profits. At present, IBKR carries a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell).
